My entertainment circle

Chapter 12 Zhang Chenchen (Part 2)

Faced with Zhang Ping'an's sudden invitation to dinner, Zhang Chenchen stared at him unexpectedly.To be honest, the sudden invitation was really strange, and of course there was a sense of surprise that I couldn't tell. The feelings were all kneaded together, and my heart was very strange.

Because after their combined debut failed, she had a contract again and couldn't leave the mess here and ran away.So she can only stay in South Korea alone, and the problem immediately arises when she stays here, because daily consumption in Seoul is also very expensive, especially in the area of'eating'.

Now she is an artist, but she doesn't have any income.Her source of life in South Korea is to rely on reaching out to find her family to ask for living expenses to live. But every month she asks for money, she still can't make it through.So in daily life she can live as she saves.

Anyway, she lives alone, eats well and almost eats at home alone, no one will know.Seriously, she hasn't had a good dinner for a long time.

So in the face of Zhang Ping An’s invitation to dinner, a desire for'food' in her heart was aroused, and she really wanted to agree.But this is not to say that she is greedy, but a very natural psychology.

Because most of the weekdays, I use the cheapest food to cope with it. Suddenly, when I hear "eating", the delicious dishes will automatically appear in my mind, and my nerves will be stimulated by the automatic reaction of my mind.

Seeing Zhang Chenchen who was stunned, Zhang Ping'an said with a smile: "I know that the agency has very strict requirements for the body management of your girl groups. Many idols do not say how hard it is to lose weight on the show, and it is continuous. For months of weight loss meals, if you want to eat some flour-like carbohydrates, you have to hide and eat in the bathroom cautiously. And you still eat while wiping your tears. I just saw that you didn’t have an agent following today, so I thought I’m going to invite you to a meal. And you also know that it’s weird to eat barbecue alone in Korea, right?"

It is true that it is rare to go barbecue alone in Korea.If you are alone, most of them choose noodle restaurants or convenience stores. Of course, there is also the easiest way to take out.Gourmet shops on the street are usually visited by two or more people.

Zhang Ping An was very unaccustomed to this when he first came to Korea from RB. At that time, he was eating in a Korean restaurant alone, and he always felt countless eyes staring at him.

Whether it's Huaxia or Zhang Ping's RB studying abroad, it is common to eat alone.In particular, RB has achieved perfection in the'one-person diet'.

But South Korea.. Especially when Zhang Ping An came to Korea in 2010, it was very lonely to eat alone, so when he eats alone, the surrounding Koreans will feel that he is particularly pitiful!

Yes, eating alone is pitiful in the eyes of Koreans. This is a cultural difference!

Of course Zhang Chenchen also understands this cultural surprise, no matter what Zhang Ping's intention is for inviting her to dinner.In the end, she did not resist the temptation of food, or she had a basic trust in people from the same country, so she agreed: "Okay, then go together."

"Thank you. Let's go, my car is parked over there."

I originally thought that Zhang Pingan’s car would be a Korean-made car, or a used car, because Korean cars are cheaper.If it's transportation, domestic or second-hand products here are completely enough.

As a result, when she saw the brand new Mercedes-Benz, she froze for a few seconds: "Driving such a good car? Are you an executive?"

Earlier, she mistakenly thought that Zhang Ping'an was working in a large company. After seeing the car, she thought he might be a senior executive.Zhang Pingan didn't explain anything, but smiled and invited her to get in the car.

Starting the car, Zhang Ping An was familiar with driving on the streets of Seoul, without even using navigation.Because the location of his home in Cheongdam-dong and the TV station is the road he has ran the most times in the past few years, he is already so familiar with it, he even knows when there will be a big traffic jam on this road. Chu.

Zhang Pingan smiled and said, "In addition to daily practice, do you spend the rest of your time working part-time?"

"Well, the consumption in Korea is too high. Although my family sends money over every month, I can earn some part-time job myself. It was not until I debuted that I realized that life in a foreign country is really difficult, especially if we do not have it. The idols that are making waves have no income at all."

Without fame, there is no itinerary, and no itinerary means no income. Everyone understands this truth. She doesn't need to hide anything.

Zhang Ping’an said with relief: “Being an artist here has a low income. Especially in Korea, it’s hard to make a fortune if you can’t be the top. There are still many famous idols who can’t make much money. Just take missA. Say, besides Xiuzhi, who else can make money in the entire combination? That is to say, the two Chinese members are lucky. MissA’s sharing agreement is equal to the combination, which is equivalent to Xiuzhi alone making money to support everyone, but this balance will be broken sooner or later."

Zhang Chenchen smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Making idols itself requires a certain amount of luck. Large companies have specialized propaganda operations, and there is no guarantee that all idols will be successful. Small companies like us... It’s even more important. Maybe I’m the one who lacks luck?”

"This is not necessarily true. As Huaxia people, I must have heard such a sentence, "The tree moves to die, people move to live." You can try to return to China to find opportunities. The market there is bigger and the demand is also large. Especially in the past two years. This is a good opportunity for Huaxia to vigorously develop its entertainment business. You have a good singing ability, and it is also an opportunity to go back to participate in the talent show."

As an ordinary person, Zhang Chenchen was still very scared of the'contract'. She shook her head and said, "How can it be so simple to return to China? I signed the contract here."

"Korean artist contract? Haha, it really means bullying someone like you who doesn’t understand anything. To me, it’s a piece of waste paper. Can help you settle the contract."

"Uh..." Zhang Chenchen looked at Zhang Ping'an strangely, she was a little bit confused about what medicine he sold in the gourd?

After taking a look at Zhang Chenchen's expression, Zhang Ping'an didn't say much after showing a kind smile to her.

The vehicle fell silent, and the two soon arrived at a well-known barbecue restaurant in Cheongdam-dong.Well-known to well-known, but the barbecue in this restaurant is very expensive because they only serve the top Korean beef!!

Looking at this restaurant, Zhang Chenchen smiled and said, "I know this barbecue is very expensive."

Zhang Pingan looked up at the sign and said with a smile: "Let's go. Although this is a bit more expensive, it tastes really good."

Zhang Chenchen, who was following Zhang Ping'an, raised his eyebrows slightly, and then followed him into the restaurant.The two chose a location by the window, and the waiter delivered the menu.

Zhang Chenchen took the menu and looked at the price written on it. She really felt embarrassed to order.The cheapest cold noodles cost 10,000 yuan per serving?This is at most 4,000 in alley restaurants, and slightly better restaurants can only cost 6,000. But here is the direct price of 10,000?Well, who is Cheongdam-dong here!

Seeing her not ordering, Zhang Ping'an smiled and said, "I ordered some casually?"

Zhang Chenchen closed the menu and nodded, and then she felt painful when she heard Zhang Ping’s order.'Spare ribs, sauce ribs, upper waist, rib eyes, special parts.Then I ordered two cold noodles to relieve greasiness.'

She simply converted it, and this meal costs at least 400,000 yuan, which is almost one-third of the wages of salaried workers.

When the waiter left to make an order, Zhang Chenchen said to Zhang Ping An, "I have so many orders? Can we two finish eating?"

"You can finish it. When eating steak, one person will have to eat about 300g, right? I don't know, we ordered about 500g of meat. Excluding the bone weight, it's about the same."

Zhang Chenchen could only nod and smile.I thought,'Well, you have said so, then eat.'

Soon, Korean short ribs came up, and a dedicated waiter was helping to grill them.The aroma of butter overflowed, making Zhang Chenchen a little impulsive for his index finger.Although she herself knew that if she kept staring at the food, she would look very rude, but the aroma of the marbled beef when it is cooked is really unbearable.

The two stopped talking after the meat came up, and at this embarrassing moment, fortunately, humans invented the smart phone. Zhang Pingan took the smart phone to play at this time, because his little partner sent over the photo of the beautiful woman. Up.

'Brother, how is the girl today?Not bad right?It is said to be a rookie actor!'

Zhang Pingan looked at the woman in the photo sent by his little friend and felt a little familiar. He seriously recalled that this woman was...'I know it is her, is it Jiang Hanna?'

'Uh, you know?'

Zhang Ping'an ignored his companions anymore.A star is just a pretty ordinary person before he became famous.Although Jiang Hannah is pretty, Zhang Ping'an doesn't have much interest in her.

The only one who made him an instant fan is currently only one, Pei Zhuxuan!

The barbecue was also cooked at this time, Zhang Ping'an put away his mobile phone and Zhang Chenchen ate.While eating, Zhang Ping’an started chatting: “Oh, have you learned a driver’s license? I’m talking about a Korean driver’s license. This driver’s license is added to the international IDP, which is the international driver’s license. You can use this driver’s license overseas in the future. Rent a car, and Huaxia’s driver’s license cannot be used in many overseas countries."

Zhang Ping'an finally gave out a more useful news.Zhang Chenchen nodded and said, "I haven't studied yet. By the way, how much does it cost to learn a driver's license in Korea?"

"One or two thousand, the test schedule is relatively long, maybe half a month. There are also fifty thousand, fifty thousand yuan a week to get the certificate, it depends on your choice. Learn the driver's license here, in order to It’s easy to use a car overseas. If you don’t have a driver’s license in China, you can apply for a driver’s license directly with your driver’s license after studying here. Hasn’t China’s driving test become more and more stringent these two years? So many Chinese people choose Come to learn a driver’s license and travel at the same time."
