Chapter 639 A Christmas dinner combining Chinese and Western elements
In Xiao Xuan's heart, Richard Gere is a very suitable role. His acting skills and popularity are not inferior to those of George Clooney and Tom Hanks. However, the salary is much less, and he has a big schedule, but he is a very good actor. A suitable actor, no wonder the previous life would find this guy to star in this tear-jerking film.
However, when Xiao Xuan thought that due to some reasons, such an excellent and touching film could not enter the mainland, and those who liked this film could not be allowed to enter the cinema to watch, or even be blocked, Xiao Xuan had to give up this idea.
In his previous life, such a film was blocked because of Richard Gere's starring role. Xiao Xuan does not want such a tragedy in this life. In fact, Xiao Xuan does not have a little "small farmer consciousness" in his heart. He still has the idea of ????"returning to his hometown in fine clothes" in his heart. I guess this is why the girls keep calling Xiao Xuan "nouveau riche".
Moreover, Xiao Xuan is still a bit taboo. When he filmed "The Departed", it was a hit at the box office, but it also caused Xiao Xuan a little trouble. Because of Martin Scorsese, Xiao Xuan was also attacked by some people in China. This made Xiao Xuan angry and helpless at the same time.
"Xiao Xuan can't go to China to explain it one by one, right?" So this time when filming the film, Xiao Xuan knew that even if it didn't take the domestic box office, "The Story of Hachiko" would still make him a box office hit.
But because of his scruples, Xiao Xuan has more taboos in his heart. This can be regarded as the price of Xiao Xuan's maturity. In his heart, Xiao Xuan is really not an "artistic person", or even nationality and ethnicity. There is no distinction between "pure" filmmakers, singers, and artists.
It is because Xiao Xuan¡¯s requirements are relatively high. He must not only have top acting skills, but also have charisma and influence. At the same time, he must have a schedule and a reasonable price. With such high requirements, Sophie Marceau and Jessica can only There is nothing I can do to help.
Fortunately, Xiao Xuan is always thinking hard. Since he can't think of a suitable candidate, Xiao Xuan will deliberately think about it. There is a saying that is good, in Hollywood, no one is irreplaceable. Since he can't think of it, just let it go. It's naturally better.
But there is also one thing that makes Xiao Xuan happy, that is, the Masked Dancer contacted Xiao Xuan, and Xiao Xuan met them at the manor. When they met, they realized that the person who helped them was actually the famous Xiao Xuan. It also made them grateful.
Helping them one million is really nothing to Xiao Xuan, so Xiao Xuan quickly forgot about this matter. After all, it was just a piece of cake for Xiao Xuan. Although he admired the masked dancer, But it¡¯s not worth keeping Xiao Xuan in his mind.
Moreover, with the arrival of Christmas, Xiao Xuan has also been assigned important tasks by several girls, and Xiao S, Chen Qiaoen, and Kim Tae Hee have also returned. In this way, Xiao Xuan has completely become a "hard worker" .
Not only do they have to fight bravely in bed, but they also have to act as bodyguards and followers. When Christmas comes, these girls start their big sweeps. Even the pregnant lady S makes an exception to go shopping, not to mention Avril Lavigne, Fan Bingbing, Ivanka and the others. .
¡°Husband, see if I look good in this dress?¡±
"Brother Xuan, look at these shoes, do they match the clothes in my wardrobe? It's that white dress, what? You don't remember which one? How could you do this? Ignore you! Miss, remember to put it on Wrap these shoes and let the gentleman behind pay the bill! Humph!"
"Xuan, look at this, isn't it beautiful? What's your expression? Smiling is uglier than crying. Hum, they are happy when they are with Avril Lavigne, but they are listless when they are with me. This watch has four styles, one for you. Your punishment!"
"Godfather"
Xiao Xuan really transformed into a "Superman" on Christmas Day. He just felt that he saw more clothes on this day than he had seen in his whole life. He walked more on this day than he had in the previous twenty years. , the words I heard on this day were more than the nagging I heard in the previous twenty years, and the number of smiles I made on this day was more than the previous twenty years plus the previous twenty years
"Huh" Xiao Xuan fell hard on the sofa, looking very imageless like a dead fish. Xiao Xuan only felt that his legs were as heavy and numb as if they were filled with lead, and his mouth was a little stiff from the forced smile.
Falling on the sofa, I didn¡¯t remember anything at all. I just wanted to have a good rest. This day was simply too scary for Xiao Xuan, making Xiao Xuan feel a little bit like talking about it.
Looking at Xiao Xuan, who was lying there with drooping eyes and exhausted, Big S smiled and walked over, "Okay, everyone is waiting for you to decorate the room. Today is Christmas, so you have to work harder, sisters. I¡¯ve prepared a big meal for you, why don¡¯t you get up quickly¡¡±
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?The instructor's words still had some effect. When Xiao Xuan thought of the exciting scene of the battle between several girls, the fatigue in his body just now was swept away. Although he could not be said to transform into a Super Saiyan, there was still no problem in transforming into a Superman.
Looking at the beautiful and colorful Christmas tree in front of him, Xiao Xuan sighed for a while. There are various ornaments and decorations on the Christmas tree. When the lights are turned on, the corner of the room is decorated particularly dazzlingly.
Xiao Xuan has no idea about Christmas. At most, he just gives away apples on Christmas Eve. In the previous life, Xiao Xuan also received a lot of apples, so Xiao Xuan looks forward to it every time because he can save the need to buy them. Apple money.
"What are you looking at? You are here in a daze. Why don't you quickly place the candles around us? When we have a big dinner on Christmas Eve, we have to pray. Hurry up" Lin Chiling said to Xiao Xuanjiao in a coy voice. , then the stunned Xiao Xuan reluctantly took the candles to place them.
Although women like Lin Chiling, Big S, Ivanka, and Sophie Marceau are not very devout believers, they still attach great importance to the holiday of Christmas Eve. Therefore, even though Xiao Xuan was reluctant, he did not dare to cause public anger.
When midnight falls, the lights in Los Angeles are brightly lit, and the sound of laughter can be heard everywhere. Traditional church songs are also heard from churches everywhere, and Christmas songs are played in every home. The light music makes people They were all caught up in the festive atmosphere.
"Haha, look what's served. It's roast goose. The turkey will be served soon. Oh, delicious food" Xiao Xuan wore gloves and held a silver plate, smiling at him. The women sitting at the dining table shouted with a smile.
During the Christmas Eve dinner, Xiao Xuan, the girls, Xiao Jingtian, and He Yulian sat around the long table next to the Christmas tree. There was also relaxing Christmas music playing nearby, creating a cheerful Christmas atmosphere.
There are all kinds of special Christmas dinners on the table, including Christmas turkey, smoked ham, Christmas salmon, Christmas pudding and other delicacies. What makes people laugh is that Xiao Xuan also specially made the family The Chinese chef makes a variety of stir-fried dishes, which gives the dishes on the Christmas table a bit of a fusion of east and west.
Sophie Marceau, Angelina Jolie, Ivanka, Avril Lavigne and several other Western women looked at the dishes on the table and smiled at each other. This was the first time they saw this. On Christmas Eve, on this big day During the meal, I saw such oriental dishes. Although the fish-flavored eggplant strips, boiled pork slices, and Dongpo pork were all delicious, they felt a bit out of place no matter how I looked at them.
But looking at Xiao Xuan's happy look, it was obvious that he was very satisfied with his "creativity" and was proud of his own proposal. This made these Western women look helpless, and they all had a kind of ironic smile in their hearts. meaning.
Unlike Sophie Marceau who was dumbfounded, Lin Chiling, Liu Yifei, Big S, Little S, Kim Tae Hee, Chen Qiaoen, Xiaoxue, and Fan Bingbing kept rolling their eyes, especially Little S and Fan Bingbing. Obviously they had expected to Let¡¯s experience the taste of an authentic Western Christmas. The plan to have an authentic Christmas dinner was aborted.
This made the two little ladies feel resentful, and they kept glaring fiercely at the extremely proud Xiao Xuan, wishing they could go up and stuff all the gleaming Chinese food into Xiao Xuan's mouth to relieve their hatred.
However, Lisandia, Cindy, and Yang Ying were very excited about this big meal. Obviously, the three of them "appreciated" Xiao Xuan's "creativity", which made Xiao Xuan even more excited. I was so proud that I couldn't help but get a little carried away.
"Haha, what are you looking at? How about eating? Isn't my idea great? You can eat Chinese food and Western food at the same time, killing two birds with one stone! This is definitely a cultural collision in the history of Christmas dinner! What a great idea, you guys Stop looking at it, let¡¯s eat quickly, tsk tsk¡¡±
Little S couldn't help but rolled his eyes and said angrily: "What are we going to eat? I thought we were in a third-rate restaurant. It has no special features at all. Husband, it's Christmas and Christmas Eve? Why can't you let us feel it?" What about pure Western culture? Although I like Eastern culture very much, there is no need to eat Chinese food on Christmas, right?"
"Obviously, Xiao S has a lot of resentment, and there is nothing that can be done about it. Who would rather wait for a long time and want to experience the exotic customs and festival culture, and when things that are common in their daily life suddenly appear, they will be disappointed.
It¡¯s like when you go abroad and come to a city, you want to buy local specialties and souvenirs. When you buy them back, when you get home, you find that it says: made in china. I think everyone will be depressed for a long time.
¡°Obviously, Xiao Xuan¡¯s current behavior is even worse than this.
Looking at the unkind eyes of the women, Xiao Xuan shrank his neck and whispered: "This is so innovative, you guys"I'm really dissatisfied. At worst, we can just wait until the Spring Festival to combine Chinese and Western styles. Then we can eat turkey and dumplings, play Christmas songs and firecrackers, and watch the Spring Festival Gala during the party"
Xiao Xuan¡¯s words made everyone faint. Although Xiao Xuan¡¯s combination of things seemed a bit unnatural, it did not ruin the festive atmosphere. Everyone had a sumptuous and colorful meal while laughing.
