Chapter 798

Before starting, Yuan Zhou closed his eyes and focused, preparing to put on a good show . However, he suddenly recalled the scene earlier when he got in close contact with a woman .

When the makeup artist was working on him earlier, he had his eyes shut yet could still feel the ice-cold touch of her hand . At that moment, he became nervous and his nerves tensed .

Yuan Zhou cheered himself, telling himself to remain calm . He was a person who had experienced much and seen the world . He had to stay calm .

However, if “experienced much” and “the world” were humans, they would point out that they had nothing to do with Yuan Zhou at all .

To distract himself from his nervousness, Yuan Zhou had listened to the sounds within his restaurant while the makeup artist was working on him . He waited for the crew to complete their preparations .

As this was a filming at a fixed location, the equipment did not need to be moved around too much . They only needed to set up the equipment at suitable spots .

Therefore, only slight thuds could be heard . After the assistant director, Qiu Qiu, spent a few additional minutes adjusting the equipment, they were done . The camera was lowered as they had learned from the two videos they made previously that the hands of a master of cooked wheaten food were comparable to the hands of a magician .

As for the lighting equipment, they were rather troublesome to set up . They tried setting them up on multiple spots but none were suitable .

Lighting was very important during filming even if this was only a promotional video . Xiao Longren had only started looking for spots for the lighting equipment after everyone else was done . Because of this, he was reprimanded by the director, Da Hai .

Why was the gaffer nicknamed Xiao Longren 1 ? It was because he had a horn on his head . Or to be precise, he had a tiny protrusion on his head . In any case, Da Hai, Qiu Qiu, Ah Ken, Xiao Longren, Bai Li, and Xiao Dao ultimately finished all their preparations .

The filming was starting .

Yuan Zhou opened his eyes and cast away the messy thoughts in his mind . His eyes were a curtain of peace and his complexion was calm . He gazed at the camera lens with an absolute calmness .

Prior to this, Director Da Hai wanted to say something but before he could say anything, he saw Yuan Zhou shutting his eyes . This rendered him speechless as he was at a loss of what to say .

And when Yuan Zhou reopened his eyes with absolute calmness, the director had a feeling that if he did not start filming right this instant, the atmosphere would be spoiled . Therefore, he gave up on talking and yelled at the script supervisor instead .

“Start,” Da Hai shouted .

“Master Records, first scene, first shot, action,” the script supervisor immediately clapped the clapperboard and started filming .

As the sound and visual effects would be added during the editing stage, apart from the sound of the camera being moved, the restaurant was in complete silence .

Yuan Zhou only gave the camera one glance before lowering his head and started working .

The filming was conducted in a strict environment, to the point it became infectious and caused the liquor customers to all hold their breath while watching . As for Da Hai, he was looking through the camera screen .

On the screen, Yuan Zhou’s expression was no longer as strict . Rather, he appeared at ease . His brows were relaxed yet his hands did not stop moving .

“Lower the camera angle, aim at his hands,” Da Hai said towards Qiu Qiu who was in charge of the camera .

Of course, there were others helping Qiu Qiu with his task as well . Although Qiu Qiu was known as the assistant director, this was a crew for promotional videos . The crew was tiny and a lot of tasks overlapped . Therefore, Qiu Qiu was also taking on the role of the cameraman . One other reason he was taking on this task was due to the good teamwork he had with Da Hai .

The moment he heard Da Hai, Qiu Qiu adjusted the camera angle and focused on Yuan Zhou’s hands .

All seven of them were busy, each doing their own tasks .

As the filming was conducted during the night, Yuan Zhou had long prepared the ingredients in advance . After all, the rice grains used here needed to be soaked for an entire day before they could be used .

Therefore, Yuan Zhou took out a porcelain bowl containing clear water and rice grains that filled about 80% of the bowl .

Each grain of rice was spotlessly white and glossy . The grains of rice were bloated from being soaked, looking white and fat .

Thud . Yuan Zhou took out a grindstone from below the countertop . The grindstone was green in color, but at the same time, it looked extremely refined . If it wasn’t for the tiny gears below it, the grindstone would look more like a top-quality jade .

“Tsk . Boss Yuan got himself a new grindstone again . How many times has he changed his grindstone?” Chen Wei muttered .

“You sure have a good memory . This is his fifth grindstone . Each grindstone will have some differences in size and color . The previous grindstone was yellow in color,” Jiang Changxi gave a measured reply .

“Wow, you have an even better memory than me,” Chen Wei glared at Jiang Changxi .

This fellow would take any chance she got to tease him . However, it was obvious that Chen Wei was becoming braver as of late . He even dared to speak up against Jiang Changxi nowadays .

While the customers discussed, they restrained the volume of their voice . Therefore, the sound engineer’s task was not interrupted by them . Moreover, the customers would only speak when there was a slight pause in the filming . Therefore, the director did not mind having these spectators at the side .

“Boss Yuan’s hands are so pretty,” Jiang Changxi said in astonishment . She had been paying attention to Yuan Zhou’s hands as the camera had been aiming at his hands all along .

“Yeah . I have never seen a man with such pretty hands,” Chen Wei nodded in agreement .

Even Da Hai nodded in agreement . Even though the other masters he had seen all had pretty hands as well, none had hands as pretty as Yuan Zhou’s .

After all, those masters were about 50 or 60 years old . Even the youngest of them was 46 years old . As for Yuan Zhou, he was only in his twenties . It was natural that his hands looked prettier .

Yuan Zhou’s fingers were at perfect length compared to the size of his palm, and the thickness of the flesh on his hand was perfect for his size as well . Moreover, his fingernails were short and neat, and when he was holding onto the grindstone, the muscles on his arms could be clearly seen . In fact, the current him indeed looked like a prince charming .

The reveal of his hands alone could qualify as fan-service to his fans .

Yuan Zhou was currently working on the grindstone, putting all his focus on grinding rice milk out of the rice grains . Every now and then, he would add some water . Everyone else was deeply engrossed in watching Yuan Zhou working .

“I have never thought that watching someone preparing food could be such a pleasant experience,” these were the inner thoughts of everyone in the filming crew . Their feeling wasn’t as intense even when filming the other masters previously .

As for the customers, they had long been used to this as they were regulars here . Since the filming crew was here for the first time, they were all watching in full attention .

“Why are you being so silent? You are normally very talkative,” Chen Wei asked Fang Heng who had remained in silence for a long time .

That’s right . Fang Heng had been staring at Yuan Zhou in silence since the start of the filming .

“There’s no way I’m as talkative as you,” Fang Heng countered by reflex .

“If my guess is correct, Boss Yuan is making Steamed Cold Noodles today,” Fang Heng said .

Everyone focused their gazes on Fang Heng . In situations like this, there would always be a data freak appearing . This time, Fang Heng had appeared to assume that role .

“Steamed Cold Noodles? I heard of Cold Noodles before . They are commonly sold on the streets of Chengdu . But what is Steamed Cold Noodles?”

“Cold Noodles can be steamed as well?”

Cold Noodles were an extremely common snack . Everyone here had heard of this snack before . At the same time, they were also aware that if cold noodles were kept at room temperature for a prolonged period of time, it would start melting . If so, how could Cold Noodles be steamed?

It would definitely taste terrible after steaming .

“It’s normal that none of you have heard of it . Steamed Cold Noodles is a snack unique to my hometown, Guangyuan . It is also known as the Empress Cold Noodles . I heard it has a story with Empress Wu Zetian, but I am not sure on the exact details,” Fang Heng came from Guangyuan . Although he rarely returned nowadays, he still knew about the snacks he had eaten while growing up .

Fang Heng did not say anything too important from his introduction . What he said next was the crucial point .

“I don’t think Boss Yuan can successfully make the Steamed Cold Noodles . ”
