It is normal in the industry for actors to do business and invest in side businesses, but among the most successful cross-border career changes, Ren Quan is definitely one of the first.
As the saying goes, "harmony brings wealth", Yuan Qiaoqiao was initially dubious about this statement, but after getting to know Ren Quan during the filming of Shao Bao, she felt that there might still be some truth to this statement.
Ren Quan has the best temper in the entire crew, from top to bottom, from the behind-the-scenes workers, from the director to the set managers, to the actors in front of the stage, from Zhou Jie, who has various temperaments, to even being evaluated as being aloof and only "bowing his head during the play" Chen Daoming, the Xiangjiang actor Zheng Peipei, who is somewhat estranged from the mainland, to the unknown passerby actors No matter they are popular, powerful or part-time actors, although they cannot be said to be in harmony, no one can say that he No, this is very rare.
Yuan Qiaoqiao feels that it is precisely because of him as the "lubricant" that many conflicts in the crew have been reduced from big to small and finally resolved. Otherwise, there will be more irreconcilable conflicts in the crew.
"At the same time, because of his presence, no matter whether she and Li Bingbing were at odds with each other, on the surface, their relationship seemed to be quite close. They often played together after they were in dramas.
After finishing today¡¯s filming, Yuan Qiaoqiao greeted Shi Xiaolong, ¡°These days, I¡¯m tired of eating the crew¡¯s lunch boxes every day. We¡¯ll finish work early today. Let¡¯s go out to eat for a change.¡±
Li Bingbing on the side heard this and interjected without saying anything: "In addition, Ren Quan and I will also go."
She and Ren Quan are fellow villagers, classmates, and friends, so she made the decision for him without asking for his opinion at all.
Ren Quan, who had other plans, did not refute Li Bingbing's words, smiled, and agreed that she would drag him to dinner together.
After taking off their makeup, changing clothes, and tidying up, the four of them walked out of the set.
Just when Yuan Qiaoqiao was thinking about which restaurant to go to, Li Bingbing suggested: "I heard that a few days ago, another authentic Sichuan restaurant opened on the base, and it's not far from here. Walk 800 meters forward. , you can see it by turning right, shall we try it?"
Everyone had no objections and headed towards the Sichuan restaurant under her leadership.
Yuan Qiaoqiao looked at the backs of Li Bingbing and Ren Quan, thinking about something. If she remembered correctly, Ren Quan's business started in a Sichuan restaurant, so was her suggestion intentional or unintentional?
When we arrived at the place and entered the store, the boss immediately came over to greet us warmly.
Because all four of them can eat spicy food, and eating Sichuan food, it doesn¡¯t feel the same if it¡¯s not spicy. Therefore, although they accepted the boss¡¯s recommendation and ordered eight of the restaurant¡¯s specialty dishes, they were all spicy. Therefore, they waited for the food to arrive. After that, I glanced at it and it was all red and spicy.
Yuan Qiaoqiao is not very interested in the well-known Sichuan dishes on the table, such as boiled pork slices, cold pot fish, rabbit with orange peel, and roasted chicken. On the contrary, she prefers the less popular crispy pork slices and steamed pork ribs with black bean sauce.
Li Bingbing, who was applying force to a dish of ginger-juice cowpeas, noticed her movements. In order to stay in shape, she didn't eat meat at night. She couldn't help but pick up a piece of pork ribs. After putting it in her mouth, her eyes suddenly lit up and she called to Ren Quan: "Hurry up, try it quickly. This dish is delicious." . You should research quickly and see if you can figure out how to do it."
After hearing what she said, Shi Xiaolong picked up a pair of chopsticks and asked curiously: "Brother Quan, are you interested in cooking?"
Li Bingbing reached out and rubbed his head sitting next to her, and said: "He is not interested in cooking, he is interested in business, and he also owns a Sichuan restaurant." He picked up another chopstick.
Although Shi Xiaolong is young, he has been a child star for so many years. He also knows that many people in the industry have side jobs. Opening a restaurant is a common second side job for celebrities. When he heard that he opened a Sichuan restaurant, he was a little surprised and said curiously: "Brother Quan, aren't you from the Northeast? Why did you open a Sichuan restaurant?" It should be a Northeast restaurant.
Ren Quan, who was slowly tasting the pork ribs, smiled and retorted: "Who stipulates that Northeasterners must open Northeastern restaurants and not Sichuan restaurants?"
"" Shi Xiaolong was speechless when asked.
Yuan Qiaoqiao asked with a smile: "Where is your store, how big is it, and how is the business?"
"Well, it's opened in the Magic City. It's not big. It can only hold eight tables. It's a small business."
"Don't hear him being modest." Li Bingbing smiled and revealed his old background, "The store is not big, but the business is very prosperous. When it's meal time, the customers have to queue up to wait for a seat. It has only been open for more than half a year. I wanted to buy the second property, but we couldn't reach an agreement and it was delayed.
When he borrowed money from me to open a store, he said that otherwise it wouldn¡¯t be considered a loan and I would be considered a shareholder. I was afraid of losing money, so I didn¡¯t agree. As a result, I regret it now. "
seeLooking regretful, Ren Quan said proudly: "As the saying goes, 'food is the most important thing for the people', and people in our country are good at eating and also pay attention to eating. Therefore, the catering industry has a lot of potential."
"It's a pity that I don't have enough funds. Otherwise, now is definitely a good time to show off my talents. If I seize it, I might be able to occupy a place in the catering industry. "
After hearing what he said, Yuan Qiaoqiao's heart moved and she suggested: "I remember that there seems to be some venture capital fund. There are projects with good prospects, but they don't have the money to carry them out. All they have to do is submit an application to this fund." Make a report to apply for funds. If approved, you can borrow a chicken to lay an egg. Do you want to give it a try?"
Li Bingbing said doubtfully: "Opening a restaurant is not a new project. This kind of fund should not be approved, right?"
Ren Quan nodded in agreement: "Well, if you don't have any new ideas, I'm afraid you won't be able to apply."
Thinking of the large amount of money that would come from selling those fourteen old oil wells, Yuan Qiaoqiao asked tentatively: "Then if someone is willing to invest, are you willing to accept it?"
After pondering for a moment, Ren Quan shook his head and said: "Forget it, I still want to work hard in my acting career. Otherwise, wouldn't my university studies be in vain?
As for opening a restaurant, it¡¯s just a way to kill time in my spare time. And if you really give me a large sum of money, I¡¯m not good enough and I can¡¯t operate it well. I¡¯m afraid I won¡¯t make any money but will lose money instead. "
After hearing what he said, Yuan Qiaoqiao was stunned for a moment, and then she realized that as long as people are in the circle, no one wants to be famous. People who are true Buddhists will not enter this circle, or they have stayed in this circle for many years. , after seeing it through and thinking about it, you will be indifferent and have a Buddhist mentality.
Ren Quan¡¯s career is now on the rise and his future is promising, so he still wants to work hard for his career and become famous. He is unwilling to let go of fame and fortune and open a restaurant.
In the original history, he finally chose to quit the industry and concentrate on business. That was because after he became popular through the roles of Gongsun Ce and Shao Zhenbo, his career began to fall into a bottleneck period, and he never had a breakthrough role. After many trials, his acting career His career was still neither good nor bad, so he gradually shifted his focus to his side business.
And as he said, when he was doing business, he found that he was not capable enough, so he went to school specifically for further study. Therefore, now that Yuan Qiaoqiao gives him a large sum of money and lets him operate it, the probability of losing is much greater than the probability of making profit.
