Peninsula: The Great Producer

(I mentioned it in the group yesterday, sorry guys, I didn’t update because I was having the annual meeting.)
The year-end song contest is no match for the cooking contest.

Qi Yaojiu used to think that cooking competitions on TV were just so-so, but after experiencing it himself today, he realized that any competition is really tense.

It is true that Qi Yaojiu is the new tenant of this house, but it is strange that Qi Yaojiu cannot enter the kitchen at all.

Jiang Minjing first went back to room 1102 and brought more ingredients that had been prepared long ago from home.

When Jiang Minjing rang the door of Room 1103, she was stunned for two seconds.

Looking at Lee Ji-eun who was standing at the entrance wearing an apron, I didn't know how to react for a moment.

Is that why? That's why when I asked Ki Yo-gu to wait for a moment, Lee Ji-eun and Ki Yo-gu said they should go home and start preparing.

IU wanted to open the door for me, and it felt like IU was the hostess of this house and I was a guest.

At the entrance, Li Zhien said: "Sorry, I only bought two pairs of slippers at the market today. Oppa wears summer slippers and I wear winter slippers. Senior, please use shoe covers first?"

This brought Kang Min-kyung back to her middle school days.

It seems that only in middle school did I have to change into slippers or wear shoe covers when entering the classroom. At that time, it was to keep the classroom clean. Now I am a student and they are the owners of the school?

IU smiled brightly. Who says that 16 years old should be an innocent age to be fooled by the whole world? In the first round, IU won!
Jiang Minjing didn't think too much about it. She put on shoe covers and went straight to the kitchen with the ingredients.

She was familiar with the structure of this house, it was exactly the same as her own house next door.

But what Jiang Minjing said today was not exactly the same as what happened at her own home. Instead, she asked Qi Yaojiu from a distance: "Oppa, where are the knives and cutting board that I put in the cabinet the other day?"

Li Zhien also returned to the kitchen and pointed to the rectangular kitchen counter and said, "Senior nim, the knives and cutting board are over there. I just took them out of the cabinet and put them there."

Originally, Kang Min Kyung wanted to show that she had been to this house with Ki Yo Gu before, and she must be more familiar with everything in the house than Lee Ji Eun, who was here for the first time today.

I never expected that Lee Ji-eun could easily resolve the issue and even turn the tables on her. Is that innocent smile definitely not acting?

Jiang Minjing could only keep smiling and said: "You don't have to call me senior nim, just call me unnie."

Li Zhien said "yes".

Facing Kang Min Kyung, Lee Ji Eun was a little at a loss for words, which was completely different from when she faced Goo Hara. I don't know if it was because Goo Hara did not have any romantic feelings for Ki Yo Gu and so they were not competitors.

Kang Min Kyung doesn't want to get closer to Lee Ji Eun. Lee Ji Eun has been listed as a competitor by Kang Min Kyung. But Lee Hae Ri said that she must have a lot of competitors and she can't offend every one she meets. Sometimes it is beneficial to make friends with competitors.

Originally, both senior and sister Jiang Minjing wanted to show their mature, sensible, gentle, virtuous and caring side in front of Ji Yaojiu. Today, Li Zhien could only be a cute younger sister here.

After taking the ingredients to the sink, Kang Min-kyung put on another apron.

The picture still looks very harmonious. Kang Min-kyung and Lee Ji-eun stand side by side in front of the sink about half a meter apart, carefully preparing the ingredients for tonight's meal.

After washing the potatoes, peel and cut into pieces, and the onions should also be cut into granules. The meat used to make the fried sauce is still pork, but the amount is much larger than that in Chinese restaurants outside.

Other side dishes are also being prepared. The green onions, lettuce, perilla leaves, and Qingyang peppers are all washed and set aside. The garlic is already peeled in advance and does not require any other changes.

Qi Yaojiu, who came out of the bedroom, could only stand in the restaurant and watch from a distance.

It can be seen that Lee Ji-eun is very serious and hardworking, but when it comes to cooking, Kang Min-kyung is much more skilled.

When asked if they needed help, Kang Min Kyung and Lee Ji Eun gave almost the same answer, telling Ki Yo Gu to go to the living room and rest while they waited for dinner. This was a strange sight.

Qi Yaojiu didn't have any special feelings before, but today, when he sat on the sofa, every time he turned his head to look at the kitchen and saw two beautiful figures with their hair tied up and wearing aprons, he felt a sense of happiness in his heart.

It's not an illusion, so the happiest thing for a man is to wait for a hot meal after getting home from get off work.

If the wife who cooks is a beautiful goddess with a hot body or a cute little wife, no, that's a child's choice. If all kinds of beauties, such as queen, loli, cute, beautiful, and hot, are cooking for you in the kitchen...

At that moment, life seemed to be given new meaning.

Jingle Bell.

The ringing of the cell phone disturbed Qi Yaojiu's happy atmosphere.

The caller ID showed that it was Li Minghan. Qi Yaojiu answered the phone while walking towards the 180-degree viewing balcony.

kitchen.

Jiang Minjing glanced back, raised the corners of her mouth slightly and continued cooking.

Lee Ji-eun also looked back curiously, but she could not hear what Ki Yo-jiu was saying at all. She could only see Ki Yo-jiu standing in front of the balcony answering the phone.

It’s just a figure, why is Kang Min Kyung so happy?

Lee Ji-eun didn't quite understand, but when Kang Min-kyung saw Ki Yo-gu answering the phone, what came to her mind was the scene of a happy couple's daily life.

I enjoy the delicious food while my busy husband deals with his career. During the meal, we sit together and talk about what happened today, drink a glass of wine together to relieve fatigue, and after the meal, we hug each other on the sofa and watch TV. This kind of life seems to be right in front of us.

In front of the balcony.

Qi Yaojiu was not so relaxed and said to Li Minghan on the other end of the phone: "Senior, I am a human, not a machine."

Li Minghan's voice came from the other end of the phone, with a hint of apology, saying, "I know you're very busy, and I also understand that you're not a god and can't clone yourself, but TVN's situation is very specific and you're well aware of it. If the drama production center doesn't produce results next year, it won't be Director Jin Zairen's fault alone."

Ki Yo-gu explained, "Senior-nim, I recommended Director Kim Jae-in-nim to the director and screenwriter of the broadcasting station to adapt the novel of the same name, 'The Moon Embracing the Sun,' and it will definitely be a good TV series."

This was the purpose of Li Minghan's call. He asked, "Is it really okay for you not to take personal responsibility?"

Qi Yaojiu sighed and counted on his fingers, saying, "At the end of the year, I'll be in charge of K Broadcasting Station's 'Gayo Daejeon,' followed by K Broadcasting Station's original drama for the beginning of next year. Then, 'Bounce Earth Arcade,' 'New Journey to the West,' and 'Three Meals a Day' will all be filming new seasons."

"There are no plans to add new variety shows. By the way, I have handed over the management of "Youth Never Dies" to writer Li Enying, so I don't have time to take care of other things."

Li Minghan didn't know what to say for a moment. It takes at least three or four months to produce a TV series. If the variety show is continued, each show will take another month. And there are other things...

Li Minghan gave in, feeling that he was understanding and righteous. He said, "Then you should participate in the selection of actors and the revision of the plot. At least that way Director Jin Zairen and I can rest assured. Jiu, I really am counting on you this time."

The call was very affectionate and the request was very sincere. Qi Yaojiu had no choice but to agree and could only tell Li Minghan that the broadcasting station would contact the novel writer first to confirm the adaptation. He would attend the production meeting and he already had ideas about the actors.

After ending the call, Qi Yaojiu was still standing in front of the balcony.

I didn't realize it until I calculated it carefully with Li Minghan. In the whole year, Qi Yaojiu didn't do anything and it ended in a hurry.

Next year, besides variety shows and the New Year's TV series, Qi Yaojiu will also follow up on other projects, mainly commercial films, which are also very profitable projects. Qi Yaojiu even planned to shoot a dark trilogy. The first one is obviously "War on Crime", the second one is "New World", and the third one... (End of this chapter)
