Chapter 847: Old hat, sell paintings to make money(1/2)
After the guests learned the news, they all dressed up beautifully and came to attend the banquet.
Becker's Western Restaurant is known as the No. 1 restaurant in Austria. It has an elegant environment, grand decoration, and the ingredients used are all the best in the West.
While eating, there was a pianist playing beautiful melodies on the piano.
Everything is like a phone call, very romantic and warm.
It's a pity that the beautiful environment was quickly ruined by this guy Wu Jin.
"Test, this is 12,000 euros of red wine? Why does it taste so bad?" Wu Jin took a sip of red wine and spit it directly into his wrist.
Xie Xiaonan pinched him hard and said, "Can you stop being such a cliché? A wonderful top-notch banquet was completely ruined by you."
Wu Jin said speechlessly: "I'm just telling the truth, okay."
Zhang Xiao woke up with a goblet and said: "Brother Jin, what Sister Nan said is right, just say it like an old hat, red wine is for tasting, not for drinking. You must drink it before drinking it."
Sober up first."
After finishing speaking, Zhang Xiao took a sip, showing an expression of enjoyment, and said: "Well, it tastes good."
Everyone else also picked up their wine glasses, tasted them, and showed expressions of approval.
Wu Jindao: "Is it really delicious?"
Wang Feng said: "For people who don't often drink red wine, this taste is indeed a bit bitter, but for those who often drink red wine, it is indeed a rare product."
Wu Jin turned to look at Zhang Xiao and said, "Others don't know, but you've only drunk red wine a few times. Can you taste it?"
Zhang Xiao grinned and said with a chuckle: "Actually, I don't really like drinking this stuff, so I brought our favorite Moutai."
With that said, Zhang Xiao took out two bottles of Feitian Moutai from under his feet and placed them on the table.
Wu Jin laughed loudly and said, "Damn, I knew you were just pretending."
Zhang Xiao said to Xie Xiaonan: "Actually, I'm just like Brother Jin, both of us are old haters. I really can't stand the taste of red wine, but drinking white wine sounds more Chinese."
"Stop talking nonsense!" Wu Jin took the Moutai and said, "Don't pretend, anyone who wants to drink liquor raises his hand."
All the male compatriots present raised their hands.
"Poof!"
"Hahaha!"
Suddenly, everyone knew that all the men were just faking their feelings.
Zhang Xiao said: "Since ancient times, all the sages were lonely. Only the drinkers left their names. Come on, ladies drink red wine, men drink white wine. I still have two boxes of Maotai."
Reba covered her face and said helplessly: "Drinking white wine on such an occasion really doesn't feel romantic at all."
Sister Yuan said: "It was a good meal of top-notch Western food, but now it's all ruined."
Director Caiyue was very happy.
When Zhang Xiao, Wu Jin and others did this, the whole session immediately became interesting.
If everyone eats there like gentlemen and ladies, the shooting effect will be greatly reduced.
In the hall, the melodious sound of the piano is still playing, but unfortunately the atmosphere here has completely changed.
The seven men exchanged cups and drank happily. Why did they care about the sound of the piano?
The pianist couldn't bear it anymore and stood up with a sullen face. He felt that he was being disrespected here.
Zhang Xiao saw that he was about to leave and noticed something was wrong with him, so he said: "Sir, please wait a moment."
The pianist looked at Zhang Xiao coldly, without caring about his identity at all, and said: "Mr. Zhang, what can I do?"
Zhang Xiao said: "I want to apologize to you. Chinese banquets are different from Western banquets. They are all so noisy. If there is anything inappropriate, please bear with me."
Hearing Zhang Xiao's words, the pianist looked much better and said: "It doesn't matter, just give me a salary."
Zhang Xiao smiled and said: "This is natural."
The pianist nodded to him and left the hall.
Bao Beier said: "This pianist has quite a personality."
Zhang Xiao said: "When someone was playing the piano, not only did we not appreciate it, but we even made a lot of noise. We really didn't respect him a lot."
Zhilin said: "It is really commendable that Mr. Zhang can be so considerate when he has reached his current position!"
Zhang Xiao waved his hand and said: "I have suffered a lot of grievances in the past. I feel the same for many people and many things. I just compare my feelings with others."
Everyone nodded in unison, secretly praising Zhang Xiao's character.
After three rounds of drinks and five delicious dishes, Zhang Jie said: "There will be a solo concert by Mr. Irwin at the Musikverein in Vienna the day after tomorrow. It's a pity that there are no tickets."
Erwin is one of the top ten pianists in the world and enjoys an international reputation. His concerts are always sold out.
Reba said: "To be honest, I have never heard such a high-end concert. Brother-in-law, can you get the tickets?"
Everyone looked at Zhang Xiao.
Zhang Xiao thought for a while and said: "Let me ask first, I'm not sure."
After saying that, he took out his cell phone and called Clark. Within ten minutes, Clark responded.
"Okay, I understand."
Zhang Xiao put down his cell phone and said: "The tickets are gone, but the guest seats are quite vacant."
Reba asked: "How many empty seats are there in the guest seats?"
Zhang Xiao said: "Twenty of them, I asked them all to come over."
Zhang Jie said: "It's amazing."
Others are also very happy.
Being able to get tickets for the Vienna concert at this time gave everyone a clearer understanding of Zhang Xiao's status in the West.
Wu Jin asked curiously: "Why are there so many vacant seats?"
Zhang Xiaodao: "Those who can be guests are all rich people. But now with the financial crisis, these rich people are busy putting out fires. Where can they find the time to watch the concert?"
Wu Jindao: "It seems that this financial crisis is much bigger than we imagined."
Zhang Xiao nodded and said: "Among the one hundred and twenty guest seats, there are a total of sixty-eight rich people, six of them jumped off the building, and twenty-one were arrested because they could not repay the loan. Anyway, the whole thing is a
It’s a mess.”
"On the other hand, the wealthy gold-tie families were not greatly affected, so not many people refunded their checks."
Zhang Ziyi said: "More than ten years ago, I personally experienced a financial crisis. I saw with my own eyes a rich man worth more than 30 billion points jumping out of a hotel window. He fell like a human being. Now that I think about it, I feel...
I still have some lingering fears.”
Zhang Xiao said: "This time it is even more powerful than last time. According to statistics, in the Lighthouse Country alone, there are 22 billionaires worth tens of billions of dollars who have jumped off the building, and there are also many ordinary people."
"There's nothing I can do about it. After he passes away, he likes to spend too much and has no sense of saving money at all. So when the bank collapses, everyone is doomed."
"Unlike our Chinese country, which always likes to keep some coffin notebooks in case of emergencies, two different consciousnesses have resulted in two completely different ways of responding when a crisis comes."
Du Jiang said: "I still think our Chinese people's consumption consciousness is right."
"Of course."
Zhang Xiao chuckled and said: "With five thousand years of cultural heritage, how can it be compared to those European and American countries?"
Wu Jin snorted and said, "But there are still many people who worship foreign countries."
Zhang Xiao said: "Brother Jin, stop being an angry young man. Such people will regret it sooner or later, because time will prove everything."
After drinking and eating, everyone returned to the hotel, changed their clothes, and went out for a walk.
Vienna is different from other cities in European countries. It is the capital of music and has very good public security. There are generally very few criminal activities before twelve o'clock.
Of course, if you are still wandering around outside in the early hours of the morning, there is nothing you can do and you deserve to be robbed.
the next day.
The filming of "Romantic Travel" officially started, and the crew assigned everyone a task, asking everyone to work as a team to find ways to make money, and then they could do it freely during lunch.
How much you earn depends on your own ability.
Wu Jin immediately raised an objection and said: "That's not okay. Zhang Xiao and Reba are both international superstars. Even if they can get a lot of money with their faces, they are nothing compared to each other.
"
Everyone nodded in unison and said, "That's right."
Zhang Xiao smiled and said: "Don't worry, we will put on makeup, and you won't be able to recognize the face we put on, isn't that enough?"
Xie Xiaona said: "This is a good idea, but we have to see the effect."
"Okay, just wait."
Zhang Xiao took Reba and got into the vanity van.
In just ten minutes, under Zhang Xiao's magical makeup skills, the two of them had completely changed their appearance.
If they hadn't known it in advance, I'm afraid none of them would have recognized it.
