What is the experience of becoming a vampire

At around four o'clock in the afternoon, Yang Zhener drove with Tang Baona to pick up Xiangkun.

Seeing Xiang Kun was holding a heat preservation box in her left hand and a small wooden box in her right hand when Xiang Kun got into the car, Tang Baona, the co-pilot, couldn't help but turned around and stretched out her hand: "This is the wooden sculpture for my grandpa? You really did it so soon. Out?"

Yang Zhen'er also looked back: "I want to see too, what are you carving?"

Xiang Kun handed the wooden box to Tang Baona.

The wooden box was similar to the boxes used to hold the wooden sculptures when Xiang Kun sent them all kinds of wooden sculptures. They were all simple-looking containers that were simply polished to remove the thorns and were not painted.After opening, inside is a boxwood carving less than a foot high.

"Nana, is this your grandfather?" Yang Zhener couldn't help but smile as Tang Baona got the wooden sculpture in her hand, "That...Is that you? So cute!"

The wooden sculpture is an elegant old man in a long robe, with a cartoonish little girl on his back.

Yang Zhener had met Tang Baona’s grandfather, Mr. Feng several times, and at a glance he recognized that the old man was Mr. Feng, and the chubby, grinning man was lying on Mr. Feng’s back like a little fat monkey. , A little cartoonish girl, obviously should be Tang Baona's childhood.

Yang Zhener turned around and asked, "Chef Xiang, have you seen Grandpa Nana before?"

Xiang Kun smiled and said: "No, but I asked Nana for a few photos, and roughly carved them out. Nana, is the carved one still like it?"

"Very similar!" Tang Baona nodded, her face was full of admiration: "You only asked me for a photo the night before. It's only a day or so before you carved it out? It's too fast! You won't be all night, right?"

Xiang Kun smiled: "Actually, the carving is very rough, and a lot of details are omitted. I'm afraid that in the eyes of someone like your grandfather, it's not very good on the table."

The photos Tang Baona gave him did not actually correspond to the wood carving.

He is based on one of the "artistic photos" of Mr. Feng wearing a robe and holding a scroll, combined with another photo of Mr. Feng holding a one-year-old Tang Baona, to decompose and merge to create a shape.

He changed Mr. Feng’s gesture of holding Tang Baona into carrying it on his back. He also changed his clothes into the book growth robe. He also cartoonized the face and body of Xiao Tang Baona a bit. It looked chubby and lovely, and it also kept it. Enough recognition, so that anyone who has seen Tang Baona when she was a child can realize that it is her at a glance.

In this way, when other people saw this wood carving, their first attention was definitely attracted by Mr. Feng's clothes, overall temperament, and the cute Q version of Tang Baona on his back.Those aspects are where Xiang Kun focused his efforts. Other details that did not spend so much time and attention were not easily noticed and would not affect the overall perception.

After all, this woodcarving material does not establish a "super-sense connection", nor does it carry out "emotional injection" in the production process. It completely shows Xiang Kun's real woodcarving technique, and in this respect, he is not really real. The woodcarver still needs to maximize his strengths and avoid weaknesses. This work is his optimal strategy for applying technology to maximize his strengths and avoid weaknesses.

Xiang Kun spent more than eight hours doing this wood carving two days ago. He didn’t do it all at once like other wood carvings before. Instead, he did it for a few hours and stopped for a few hours. After all, he has other things to do in these two days, not only discussing the investigation of "vampire patients" with Lao Xia, discussing the design ideas of the research base and laboratory in Chongyun Village, and also with Zhang Qian, Zicheng and others. Discuss the establishment of the game company, future operations and publicity plans, as well as follow-up technical support and other issues.

On the other hand, he also deliberately divided the production process to avoid unknowingly turning this wooden sculpture into a "love object".

In the end, he finished the wood carving half an hour before Yang Zhener and Tang Baona came to pick him up, and then it took half an hour to get a wooden box to make this meeting ceremony look like that.

In fact, he originally wanted to give Mr. Feng a wooden sculpture that he had made before, but he turned over the "stock"-the twelve little yellow people had been taken by him to set up in the "Youlong Hotel" for future restaurant openings. Prepare for manufacturing effect.Apart from the "eight-armed eight-eyed woodcarving", the only remaining woodcarving works in the house are Alsace.

The "Eight Arms and Eight Eyes Wood Carving" originally came back from Mr. Feng, and it was filled with fear and emotions. It was very special and naturally could not be given. Is it necessary to give the wood carving of the Lich King?That's not appropriate...

So after thinking about it, Xiang Kun chose to make a temporary wood carving and asked Mr. Feng to "comment".

Looking at the woodcarving in her hand, Tang Baona couldn't put it down a bit, and smiled: "It's so rough, it's exquisite! And my grandpa is not very knowledgeable. He is a keyboard man and a gangster, and he doesn't know how to carve. You put a hundred hearts, this wood carving, he will definitely like it!"

In fact, she has already begun to think about whether to find an excuse to collect this wooden sculpture from her grandfather. Xiang Kundiao’s childhood, she looks too cute-even though she thinks so, she seems a little embarrassed .

Yang Zhen'er opened her eyes and looked at Xiang Kun and said, "Chef Xiang, I want this kind of wood carving too. I will send you the photos of my childhood! My parents also want to invite you to dinner, and then you too Give Diao a meeting ceremony, and make me a Q version, as cute as Nana, hehehehe."

"Hey, you're so big..." Xiang Kun said helplessly: "What are your parents doing when they see me? That's weird! What kind of wood carving do you want, I can just carve it for you when I have time."

Yang Zhener said, "Hey, it's true. I didn't make an excuse temporarily. My dad really wanted to see you, saying that he wanted to discuss your game with you. He might also want to invest."

Xiang Kun said: "Then don't. If your dad wants to mix in, it's not appropriate to take up less, right? Too much. Zhang Qian and the others are probably going to jump. Zhang Luo, it is unfair to integrate resources and let her take up too little. Also, if she becomes them, it is impossible to cut too much. Therefore, I can only thank Uncle Yang for his kindness."

Yang Zhener blinked and said, "It doesn't matter if you come to eat or not, but you just agreed to do woodcarving for me! You can't regret it! You can't delay it too long! Three months...no, one month. Inside!"

"Let's talk about this later, I drove and drove, and if it was delayed, there should be a traffic jam on the road! Go and go!" Xiang Kun waved and urged.

"You promise first, within a month!" Yang Zhen'er was still holding the armrest box and looking back at Xiang Kun: "If I don't agree, I won't leave!"

Tang Baona couldn't help laughing: "True, how come you are like a child."

Yang Zhener gave her a white glance: "How do you know that a favorite child like you will understand? Stupid kids like us have to make trouble to eat candy! As the saying goes, the stupid bird howls first! The early birds are there. Worms eat!"

"Well, well, I promise, one month, one month to go, let's drive quickly." Xiang Kun cried and laughed.

Apart from Mr. Feng, there were only two sisters Tang Baona and Tang Baoting, and Baoting's fiancé Gao Yao, Yang Zhener and Xiang Kun.Neither Tang Baona's parents nor her two uncles and other cousins ​​came.

In name, Mr. Feng wants to have a meal with his grandchildren and have a chat.

After seeing Mr. Feng, Xiang Kun bowed politely and said, "Hello, Mr. Feng, I am Xiang Kun." He knew from Tang Baona that Mr. Feng had been a Chinese teacher for two years when he was young. And judging from his hobbies, his usual clothes, home decoration style, and style of style, calling him "Mr. Feng" should be closer than "Grandpa Feng" and "Mr. Feng", and it is also suitable for him. The gesture of "asking for advice" with wood carving works.

Sure enough, through the judgment of various sensory information, Xiang Kun thought that Mr. Feng’s first impression of him was quite good. After seeing the wooden sculpture of "Little Nana on Back" he sent, he laughed from ear to ear. , The happiness index is very high.

Although Xiang Kun was here as a guest today, when chatting with Tang Baona the day before yesterday, she also mentioned that she had mentioned "the rabbit meat made to the chef" several times with her grandfather. Mr. Feng also expressed interest, so he came here today, specifically I brought rabbit meat marinated in advance.

After greeting Mr. Feng, Bao Ting, and Gao Yao, Xiang Kun went to the kitchen, and under the suspicious and distrustful eyes of Mr. Feng's nanny, he began to cook one of his signature dishes: braised rabbit meat.

The nanny thought he knew better about the tastes of Mr. Feng, Bao Na, and Bao Ting. When Xiang Kun was cooking, he couldn't help but raised his opinions several times.

However, Xiang Kun is very clear about the final taste of this dish. This is his experience of many experiments, calculations, and chefs in the past. It is also the taste he specially adjusted to cater to Tang Baona. It has been processed in his own way. The marinated rabbit meat according to his recipe, under his personal cooking, the taste of the pan is very stable, without any adjustment.

Therefore, the advice to the nanny is all perfunctory with a smile and a good attitude, and the actual operation is completely according to his own plan.

The nanny was a bit disapproving of Xiang Kun's cooking process, but because he was a guest, it wasn't much to say.But when the rabbit meat came out of the pot and Xiang Kun asked her to taste a piece, her attitude immediately changed.

Xiang Kun’s rabbit meat dishes were changed and fine-tuned in order to cater to the tastes of Tang Baona, Yang Zhener, Lao Xia and others in the early stage. In the later stage, they carried out various changes and fine-tunings for the "Youlong Hotel" menu. With more in-depth and complex adjustments, every process, every bit of seasoning, and detailed heat conditions, he has already understood and mastered everything.

Therefore, since this braised rabbit meat is cooked by Xiang Kun himself, the basic level lies there. No matter what the babysitter’s taste preference is, the benchmark for deliciousness can definitely be exceeded.Of course, if it is Tang Baona or someone who has the same taste as her, taste this dish and get a higher level of taste enjoyment.

After the nanny ate a piece of braised rabbit meat, he knew that Xiang Kun did have a level, and his level was definitely higher than himself.

Just as Xiang Kun brought the braised rabbit meat to the table, he noticed Tang Baona swallowing and Yang Zhener's lips licking. Even Baoting and Gao Yao looked at the rabbit meat in his hands—— People who have eaten his dishes, especially those who have eaten it several times, and those who have been adjusted to the feedback of the meal to make exclusive dishes, will have this natural reaction.

The reaction of the four young people, Mr. Feng also had a subtle perception. He usually listened to his two granddaughters telling him that the rabbit meat made by "Chef Xiang" was a must-see, delicious and unbelievably delicious. But as an old man who is relatively affluent and relatively particular about food, and has tasted various delicacies and various dishes, he had always felt that what the two granddaughters said was a bit exaggerated. He was a non-professional chef, and he was self-taught. People who have not been cooking for long, where can they cook delicious dishes?

However, seeing the reactions of these four young people today, Mr. Feng's previous views were a little shaken, and his expectations for the plate of rabbit meat in Xiang Kun's hands have also increased a lot.

"Taste it, Teacher Feng, this is my specialty. Nana, Zhen'er, Sister Baoting, Brother Yao have eaten them, and they all think the taste is okay." Xiang Kun knows that at this time, don't be overly humble. When it's time to increase the sense of expectation, Tang Baona said that her grandpa's taste should be similar to hers, so this dish should be able to achieve better results.

So Mr. Feng didn't wait for the nanny to serve other dishes, first picked up the chopsticks, took a piece of braised rabbit meat and tasted it.

The rabbit meat is delicate and delicious. The Xiangkun tune is very fragrant and layered. After the entrance, it is a little spicy. After biting it, the juice comes out, a little salty, and then it turns into slightly sweeter. The more you chew, the better Eat, the more you chew, the richer it tastes. After swallowing one piece, you subconsciously lift the chopsticks to clamp the second piece.

After picking up the second piece, Mr. Feng stunned slightly, and felt that he was eating a little eagerly. He couldn’t help but laughed, put the piece of rabbit meat in the bowl first, and said to Xiang Kun, “It’s really delicious. It's really delicious, your rabbit meat is indeed a must! Listening to Nana, it hasn't been long since you learned to cook?"

"Thank you, Teacher Feng, for the compliment. I just have a little talent for this cooking skill, so I am better at making rabbit meat. If I change the ingredients, I may not be able to do this level when I make other ingredients." Xiang Kun smiled Said.

Gao Yao couldn't help but said, "Not only rabbit meat, Xiang Kun's beef soup is also delicious."

Yang Zhener said: "The best food should be dry pot rabbit meat, hey, but in order to please Nana, Chef Xiang always deliberately reduces the taste, it is not so perfect!"

Baoting nodded, "Nana's taste is too weak!"

The discussion started with the dishes, and everyone’s conversation was naturally aroused. It is Gao Yao, who usually doesn’t like to talk very much. He also speaks frequently in this meeting, letting Feng Lao, who has seen this prospective grandson-in-law several times before. The husband was also quite surprised. Didn't expect that "Xiao Gao" could actually speak?

After dinner, everyone changed their tea trays and started chatting over tea.

Mr. Feng took the wood sculpture that Xiang Kun sent today and the "golden wood sculpture" that Tang Baona handed over last time. While comparing and commenting, he believed that Xiang Kun's "craftsmanship" was indeed very good and improved.

With regard to wood carving-related knowledge, Xiang Kun basically answered what he did, and did not deliberately pretend to be a comparison.

However, when he taught himself wood carving before, he searched for information and tutorials on the Internet, and read a lot of things. At that time, his memory was already very strong. Basically, the things he saw were never forgotten. At this time, he and Mr. Feng Talking about some cultural-related things, it's quite easy to deal with.

After talking about wood carving, I talked about calligraphy again. Xiang Kun is really not good at this aspect. To be honest, he learned the Eight Methods of Yongzi from the old man next door when he was a child, and he didn’t learn any other skills. , No level.

Before you know it, the topic has returned to Xiang Kun's recent "Industry Project".

Mr. Feng is experienced and well-informed himself, and his two sons are also in the business world. He has always been concerned about the Internet and related emerging industries. He mentioned some friends he had known in his early years who were younger than him. There are also some big names in the Internet and technology circles who are still very famous.

While chatting, Gao Yao couldn't help mentioning: "Did you know the chairman of Lucheng Anlu of "Shenxing Technology"? He seems to be from this city?" He is half a fan of "Shenxing Technology". Pay attention to various related black technologies.

Xiang Kun's heart secretly gave him a compliment, which is also a question he is interested in.
