Chapter 34
Turning to Tang Hong, he asked: "Can we participate in the auction today?"
"Yes, we are No. 69." Tang Hong took out the license plate and said, "I participated in the name of the studio. Although I don't have money, I contributed a lot every time."
Johnson nodded, took the license plate, and waited for the dinner to start. He said it was eight o'clock, but it was over nine o'clock, and it was officially started when the stars had finished their popularity.
The middle tables are all stars, and there are quite a few familiar faces. Although there are no first-tier brands, they are still very star-studded, especially female stars, who are radiant and magnificent.
The host spoke in a lot of scenes. Tang Hong saw that Johnson was bored and laughed in a low voice: "In such occasions, all the actresses are drama celebrities, and hot searches are one after another. It seems that there is no male star."
"What impressed me the most was last year's Bazaar Night. The most popular one was International Zhang and Sister Carina. As soon as Sister Ziyi appeared, she felt like she went home, laughed boldly and posed for her. She was definitely an old world!"
"Especially when taking a group photo, I lifted my little coat away, revealing half of my shoulders, and immediately came out, killing countless photographers' lenses."
"The most pitiful thing is the Baodao singer who just made a comeback. The star who sang invisible wings said that she was very scheming and grabbed the C position in front of everyone, and was scolded by netizens."
"I watched her be squeezed into the middle little by little. In fact, there was no rehearsal of the celebrity group photo, so the scene was chaotic. She first stood beside her when she went on stage, then shook hands with others one by one, and walked to the middle. More and more people came up, and finally she was helplessly squeezed to that position."
"Those plastic sisters are even more obvious. They are known as the five beauties of joy on the screen, and they don't even want to stand together, haha..."
"The most embarrassing thing is the big-mouthed Yao. When he first came on stage, he was sandwiched between two Bingbings and kept being pulled around. Alas, it's pitiful!"
"In the end, Yang Mi was also caught in. There was no communication throughout the whole process, and she kept making small moves. She had to lift her hair awkwardly and clap her hands, asking me to say that this is the stage to truly exercise acting skills and the birth of an actor!"
Johnson Chan laughed while listening, but unexpectedly, Tang Hong was quite gossipy, and the dinner finally came to the auction. First, there were personal belongings donated by celebrities, such as leather bags, bracelets, and even headphones.
Johnson saw that he was photographed one by one and lamented that he was stupid and had a lot of money. He was okay when he bought a leather bag. After all, it was a famous brand. But what can a pair of headphones do?
"The following is the second step. We must donate a love water purifier to poor rural areas in mountainous areas to ensure that the children drink clean water..."
"One unit is 100,000, please participate actively..."
"In the end, all kindness is made public and subject to social supervision. Please hold your sign with confidence..."
Johnson straightened up and finally waited for the highlight. In fact, what he wanted to help most was orphans, who understood the hardships of the children, and had the opportunity to set up a fund to support education.
"Mr. No. 6, 500,000, thank you for your kindness..."
"Ms. Eighteen, 800,000, thank you..."
"Mr. Twenty-seven, one million, thank you for your generosity!"
Many people raised signs, and there were many kind-hearted people, including many celebrities, at least 300,000 or 500,000 or 100,000, and the scene was very lively.
"Five million!"
The audience focused on Johnson, held high the license plate and directly quoted five million yuan. It was an uproar and everyone was talking about it.
"Boss...you..." Tang Hong next to him was also jumped. Good guy, five million?
The host quickly confirmed again and said excitedly: "No. 69, Mr. No. 69 donated five million. On behalf of the children, I would like to thank you for your kindness..."
"Who is that person? I don't seem to have seen it before!"
"It shouldn't be someone in our circle. What a good guy, he's rich!"
"Hmph, I don't know where the nouveau riche came out. Is there a mine at home?"
"A prodigal son is trying to pick up girls? Five million...it's really a lot of money!"
Johnson Johnson looked calm and calm in his heart when facing the flash. Anyway, he was not in the entertainment industry, so who knew who?
Tang Hong quickly sat down, exposed her eight teeth, and made a beautiful vase. When her attention was diverted, she said with a long breath: "Can you notify me in advance?"
"That's five million... donate it directly..."
"Oh...boss...wait for me!"
Seeing Johnson standing up and preparing to leave, he hurriedly chased after him. He watched the staff swipe their cards, five million is like this...
He could only comfort himself: "Forget it, buy an exposure rate of five million, maybe you can also entertain entertainment news, it's worth it!"
Back in the car, since I had donated money, Johnson Johnson was not interested in watching the so-called celebrity show. Seeing Tang Hong's complicated expression, he joked: "I know you admire me very much. I'm in a good mood today. Please have a meal, you can choose whatever you want!"
"Really?" Tang Hong's eyes lit up, pretending to be indignant, gritted her teeth and said, "I want to eat Kyoto Kaiseki Hana Chuan Minoki!"
"Authentic island country Kaiseki cuisine for 290 years... All ingredients are airlifted... and even the waiters are from the island country."
"The most expensive Japanese food in Beijing...the per capita consumption is 6,000 or 7,000...the legendary dream restaurant."
The little girl with her eyes shining, as if she had a lollipop, said excitedly: "I want to eat this!"
Johnson waved his hand and said casually: "Drive and try the so-called most expensive Japanese food."
I have heard of Kaiseki cuisine for a long time. It is known as the top Japanese cuisine. It is beautifully served and can even taste the taste of Zen. Johnson is very curious.
Go straight to Pangu Seven Stars, go up to the 21st floor, and come to Hana Chuan Minoki. Although there are only eight private rooms, there are not many customers today. The kimono girl invited Johnson and Tang Hong into the private room.
The environment looks simple and elegant, with a typical Japanese style, warm-light screen tatami, plain and light colors and atmospheric space, giving it a deep beauty of the four seasons.
As soon as I sat down, I first presented a cup of tea and a small cup of aperitif. Along with the faint fragrance of cherry rice wine, poured onto a shallow wine plate.
"I heard that this is the first person in the island country to build a building. Mr. Imarita who designed the Tokyo Sumo National Museum of Technology, and there is also a stage for traditional performances."
"It is said that from restaurant decorations to ingredients and seasonings, from waiters and even to the water used for cooking and rice, they are transported from the island country from thousands of miles away, and have become one of the most expensive restaurants in Beijing."
Johnson Chan was stunned and curiously said, "Didn't you not come?"
"Hey, I haven't eaten pork, I've always seen pigs leave?" Tang Hong rolled her eyes and said, "Check some information online and look at more pictures. Can you talk to those rich wives about everything?"
Johnson Johnson suddenly realized that imagination is also a powerful tool for pretending?
Looking around, the simplicity and exquisiteness make Johnson feel comfortable. The food has no national boundaries and ethnic conflicts, as long as it tastes delicious.
Foods that can be called exquisite cuisine in the world basically follow several major principles: the first is to choose the best natural ingredients, and no matter how popular global trade is, they carefully select local ingredients for this season and cook freshly.
Secondly, the appearance should be carefully designed, either according to the changes of the four seasons, or according to the chef's occasional inspiration, reflecting strong cultural characteristics. Each dish is extremely particular.
Among them, the best are Japanese cuisine full of ritual, luxurious French cuisine and profound Chinese cuisine. No matter what the cuisine is, it is important to not eat from time to time and adapt to local conditions.
The kimono girl delivered the menu. Tang Hong finished reading it and said: "Water white radish duck floss sauce, salted salmon with roe egg custard, pine leaf soba noodles, roasted lotus root, roasted coho salmon with Yu'an sauce, roasted oyster and prawns on Puye Leaf."
"They are all special dishes, of course the best ones are definitely charcoal-grilled wagyu beef, as well as signature dishes, sweet shrimp sashimi, and eel rice!"
Feeling the strong expectation, Johnson Singh smiled and ordered all the most expensive dishes. It seemed to be more than a dozen. With the urinary properties of Japanese dishes, it is not certain whether they can eat enough.
"Boss, look, this is the popular doll and Kyoto round fan!" Seeing the kimono girl leave, Tang Hong stood up and pointed to the wall and said, "Popular dolls are a unique decoration for Kyoto to wish for a prosperous business. The human-shaped dolls are hung up in the round bamboo frame and rolled up with red cloth. I hope more guests can come."
"The round fan is a round fan sent to customers by Kyoto Maiko in summer. The front is the family emblem and the back is the name of the maiko. It is generally not sold, and it is very precious in ancient times."
"This is called breath. When sitting in a tatami, put your elbows on your utensils." Sitting down again, touching the wooden frame, said: "It was used more than a thousand years ago. It is a very traditional living utensil. The breath used by Minoki is made of chestnut trees, the most advanced material."
Johnson Cheung tasted the tea, which was light but tasteless, and even a little bitter. He heard Tang Hong know it carefully and asked: "Why is it called Kaiseki cuisine?"
"It is said that there was a group of monks from the temples of Kyoto. In the cold weather, they were so cold that they were eating little, and they ate very frugal and light. So they thought of holding warm stones in their arms to resist the cold and hunger."
"The word Kaiseki is popularized as a small amount but can fill the empty stomach and make the body warm. It is important to cook whatever you want. According to the ingredients in each season, you must never deliberately decorate it. You must make full use of its original flavor."
"Then the kind hospitality to the guests is also an important feature of Kaiseki cuisine. Although the cuisine itself does not pursue gorgeousness, it pays extreme attention to cooking and placement at each stage of work, freshness of ingredients, seasonality and utensils for food."
He picked up the porcelain plate on the table and showed it: "Don't underestimate these things, they are all fired in a field. They were our official kiln in ancient times!"
