When Tang Xiaobao brought Zhong Xue over, the three of them were having a lively conversation.

The manager personally brought him here. As soon as he sat down, he asked the manager, "Where's Lao Zhu?"

"The boss is out today. He just called and said he can't cook for us. I've already explained this to them."

Tang Xiaobao laughed and said, "What a coincidence? You're out again? Weren't you still here yesterday?"

The manager said with a bitter face: "He really went out."

"Well, I told him to cook some delicious dishes himself. The guests I invited today are all VIPs."

Tang Xiaobao is purely speaking after the fact.

He didn't believe that Fatty Zhu was not there, but he didn't really expect the God of Cookery to cook. To put it bluntly, he regarded Fatty Zhu as a friend, not a real chef.

Even if Fatty Zhu is actually a chef, he is also the God of Cookery, the best chef in the world. How could he be allowed to cook casually?

Let Marshal Tianpeng cook to entertain these mortals?

Even Tang Xiaobao had to speak up for him.

The manager wiped his sweat, apologized and left.

Zhao Haiyang introduced Tang Xiaobao.

"I've long heard of Dean Yu's name. I grew up watching your plays. You're a veteran artist." Tang Xiaobao shook hands with Yu Xiantao, and what he said was true.

Yu Xiantao has filmed too many classic film and television dramas. Tang Xiaobao did not expect that the dean of the China Academy of Drama would be Yu Xiantao. He really admires him.

"I have heard of Mr. Tang's name for a long time. Heroes emerge from young people, heroes emerge from young people!" Yu Xiantao was also very happy. He didn't dare to put on airs in front of Tang Xiaobao, so the atmosphere was naturally very harmonious.

Tang Xiaobao shook hands with Zheng Ping again and said with a smile, "Director Zheng, Lao Zhao insisted that I come to film. Although he is the director, to be honest, he is just a vase. When he joins the crew, you can scold him if you want and give him more advice."

"Mr. Tang, you are too polite. I have confidence in you. The movie will definitely be a big hit." Zheng Ping said with a smile.

Zhao Haiyang complained: "Tang Xiaobao, please don't be so discouraging. Although this is my first time filming, I have also attended the directing classes at the Huaxi Opera for a long time, so I am considered an expert. If you don't believe me, ask Dean Yu."

Everyone laughed together.

They sat down together. Tang Xiaobao pointed at Zhong Xue next to him and introduced her, "This is Zhong Xue. I brought her here. This is her first time filming a movie. Although she's only in her third year of high school and hasn't graduated yet, she's loved acting since she was a child. I hope Director Zheng will continue to train her."

"Sure, sure."

Zheng Ping smiled.

Tang Xiaobao said honestly, "To be honest, Director Zheng, this is our first time making a movie, and we're both debutants. We're completely amateurs when it comes to acting, so I'm afraid I'll disappoint you. Just don't get angry."

"I just said that I have great confidence in Mr. Tang and this movie," Zheng Ping said with a smile.

Tang Xiaobao felt even more guilty and said with a wry smile, "Director Zheng, please don't flatter me. The more you do that, the more scared I get."

Zheng Ping said seriously, "Mr. Tang, do you think I was flattering you?"

Tang Xiaobao laughed.

Zheng Ping continued, "I have a basis for what I said. Dean Yu is here too. Back then, when Dean Yu was filming, he didn't have any formal training. Acting is about talent, and understanding is especially important. To put it bluntly, the dumber the person, the harder it is to film. Boss Tang has such a high IQ, he understands things like filming instantly and learns quickly."

After a pause, he continued, "Although the script of this movie is average and even melodramatic, nowadays movies like to lean towards the grand and grand, and like to play with some depth and art. Suddenly, a movie with a simple and melodramatic plot comes out, which may have an unexpected effect. The audience has a martial arts dream in their hearts, which is related to our traditional culture. The Chinese have never lacked the spirit of chivalry since ancient times. And the most important point is that with Yan Zi and Mr. Tang as the protagonists, the world is looking forward to this movie before it is even filmed. Although Mr. Tang is not yet in the entertainment industry, your fans have exceeded 50 million, even more than Yan Zi's fans. The news about you has been flying all over the place in the past two days. After the opening ceremony in a few days, I believe that hundreds of millions of fans will be looking forward to it. To be frank, even if it is a completely bad movie, it will definitely be a big hit at the box office. Of course, I still have confidence in my level, and the movie I make will definitely not be too bad."

Tang Xiaobao had considered these factors, and after hearing Zheng Ping's analysis, he actually agreed. However, he didn't want to brag about it. He coughed and said, "I wish I could. I invested real money. Even if I lose, I can't lose everything. Haha."

"Damn, you don't have any confidence in me at all." Zhao Haiyang complained.

"Director Zheng also said that your script is average and very melodramatic." Tang Xiaobao fought back.

The two of them were bickering with each other, and the people around them could only stare at each other.

However, it can be seen from this that the relationship between the two is really strong.

Zhong Xue was particularly well-behaved today, sitting quietly on the side.

Needless to say, her image and temperament were so beautiful that Zheng Ping's eyes lit up as soon as she entered the door, and even Yu Xiantao looked at her a few more times.

She was just nervous.

After all, the two guests tonight have very special identities.

One is the dean of the Chinese Academy of Drama, and the other is a famous director in the Chinese film industry. Both of them have won many awards in their respective fields. That is absolutely impressive.

"Hey, you two, how about we eat and talk at the same time?" Zheng Ping couldn't help but want to start eating and said with a smile.

Tang Xiaobao glared at Zhao Haiyang, then turned to look at Zheng Ping. He immediately put on a smile and said, "Okay, I'm sorry to have embarrassed you. Come on, Dean Yu, Director Zheng, let's eat first."
