Chapter 509 509, Taichung Line 4
“The smell of smoke from the rock-yaki shop fills the air
Next door is the Guoshu Museum
Mama-san in the store
There are three stages to the tea ceremony
…”
Outside the back door of [Shanxian Mutton Soup Restaurant] is an open space that has not yet been developed. At this moment, a young man wearing No. 23 jersey and humming a song was standing in the open area, grilling meat.
The grilled lamb sticks are very big and made of willow branches. Basically, there are more than three taels of the mouth-watering mutton on each stick.
The barbecue boy was busy, and the back door of the soup restaurant opened. A middle-aged man who was not very tall came out. He took out a box of cigarettes from his pocket and popped out one. However, he touched his pocket and found that he didn't have any cigarettes with him. There was a fire, so the middle-aged man came to the barbecue stove.
"Jay, how's the lamb roast going?"
"Oh, boss, it will be ready soon."
The young man turned around and saw the middle-aged man, and immediately respectfully took a mutton skewer and handed it to him.
But who would have expected, the middle-aged man waved his hand.
"It doesn't matter whether I eat it or not. The key is that Sun Hao feels that your mutton skewers are delicious."
"Uh, boss..."
Immediately, the young man felt a little at a loss.
"Jay, you may not know much about it, but your first album sold quite well last year, with a total of 310,000 copies.
But what?
Our Alpha Music is losing money. Not to mention other things, I spent NT$40 million just to help your songs hit the charts in several Asian markets. Also, in order to play your song MV on major TV stations. , I spent another 55 million on advertising. "
"So, boss?"
The young man knew he shouldn't ask, but the middle-aged man's attitude forced him to ask.
"Jay, do you know how much the box office of Sun Hao's movie "The Martian" is currently in Taiwan?"
"It seems that there are more than NT$200 million?" Although the young man didn't understand why the middle-aged man would talk about this, he still answered truthfully.
"To be precise, it is NT$243 million, which is even higher than the box office of the "Titanic" movie in the previous two years."
The middle-aged man put the cigarette into the barbecue and lit it, then took it out and took a deep breath and said:
"Jay, do you know how much global box office Sun Hao's "The Martian" will make if nothing unexpected happens? How much money will Sun Hao make personally?"
"How many?"
"Directors Hou Hsiao-hsien, Lee Eucalyptus, and Edward Yang, during a chat yesterday, estimated that the global box office of "The Martian" will eventually exceed one billion US dollars.
And just with this film, Sun Hao's personal income will exceed 100 million, well, the unit is US dollars. "
This time, the young man did not continue to talk, but looked at the middle-aged man with a confused look on his face. Why are you talking to me about this?
Could it be that he wants me to rob him?
However, the middle-aged man was calm. He looked at the young man and continued:
"Jay, do you know how much the producer and distributor spent on promoting the movie "The Martian"?
Haha..., it's zero!
Haha... In other words, Sun Hao earned 120 million US dollars for himself without spending a penny, and that 20 million US dollars was the publicity fee allocated to him by the publisher of "The Martian". Now, Sun Hao has been brought to light. Put it in his pocket.
So, Jay, if you have an opportunity later, I will take you over to meet Sun Hao and see if he can help you with some ideas so that you can become famous all over the world overnight.
Just like the unknown Hollywood actress Angelina Jolie six months ago, she just made a joke with Bu Shi and became famous all over the world overnight. "
The middle-aged man paused and said with a wry smile:
"Jay, I don't have any other intention. I just want you to perform well in front of Sun Hao and see if he can make you famous with the help of his Dongfeng?"
If you can't become popular..., then I will have no choice but to sell you.
Of course, the middle-aged man opened his mouth and thought about this for a moment, but in the end he couldn't say it out loud.
At this time, the back door of Shanxian Mutton Soup Restaurant was opened from the inside again.
"Brother Zhong, why are you out too?"
The middle-aged man turned around, and when he saw the old man coming out, he immediately threw the cigarette in his hand on the ground, and then crushed it with the tip of his left toe.
"If I don't come out, what can I do?
Well, that guy is crazy today. He kept chattering when he caught Sun Hao.
First of all, Sun Hao, the Americans have never killed anyone on our land, and they have done good things, such as using the Boxer Indemnity to help us build the Capital University.
Then he said that we should look at the Japanese people in two. It is a small group that commits bestiality, but the majority are pure and kind people. "
"Then..., what did Sun Hao say?"
The middle-aged man looked a little anxious. He finally asked Lin Zhiling and Sun Hao to meet him through his connections. He hadn't even talked about the business yet, so he couldn't let others mess with him.
"Sun Hao couldn't help it, and finally said three sentences." Thinking of this, Wang Weizhong's face was full of admiration.
This is how a man should be!
"Oh, Brother Zhong, those three sentences?"
At this time, the mutton was roasted. The young man put the meat skewers on the plate and asked Wang Weizhong curiously.
“One, bastard, have you forgotten the Eight-Nation Alliance?
Second, a beast is a beast, even if it has some good intentions in its heart, it is still a beast! "
"Uh..."
The young man was stunned, and then blinked.
"Brother Zhong, what about 3?"
"Three, just one word "get out!"
"Get out", this word, Wang Weizhong said it loudly, and the young man took a step back in shock.
Seeing this, the middle-aged man supported him from behind with his hand, and then patted him on the shoulder.
"Jay, it should be ok, go quickly, and remember to perform well in front of Sun Hao."
"Well, okay, boss! "
The young man stood at the back door, took a deep breath, and then held the plate full of mutton skewers with his left hand, opened the back door of the mutton soup restaurant with his right hand and walked in.
………
Fried mutton with green onions, cold mutton offal, mutton legs with Chinese chrysanthemum, stir-fried mutton blood with chives..., well, there is also the mutton soup in the middle of the table!
Such a sumptuous lunch, it looks very good, right?!
But Sun Hao had no appetite at all. What's wrong with this short and big guy? Why did he start selling his ridiculous price when he met a slightly influential person? Value.
Fortunately, I waved my hand and drove him away, otherwise, I might be disgusted by this guy! !
Picking up the chopsticks, Sun Hao was ready to invite Qiu Likuan, Wang Fei, Lin Zhiling, and Lin Zhiling's father to eat together, because he had to go to the prison to check the reform in detail in the afternoon, but at this time, a scent of mutton skewers floated in.
"Sister Kuan, Sister Fei, Sister Zhiling, Director Sun Hao, hello, I am Jay Chou, a signed singer of Alpha Music Company. Last year, I released my first album in my life, with sales of 309,427 copies.
This is the mutton skewers I grilled for everyone.
The reason for this is to strive for an opportunity to sing in front of everyone."
