Chapter 752 Divine Chef Xiao Fugui (Please Subscribe)

Is "Master Chef Xiao Fugui" considered a gourmet show?

maybe……

Gu Miao was not sure. Anyway, Hou Bin said it was a gourmet show, so it was a gourmet show. After all, he was the main creator of the animation.

The story takes place in the late Qing Dynasty.

In order to avoid the war, the Queen Mother, the Emperor and others fled in a hurry. Because the chief royal chef was killed, they had to choose local chefs to serve the Queen Mother. The protagonist Xiao Fugui's grandfather was also involved in the vortex of political struggle and was forced to become a pawn.

In order to save his grandfather, Xiao Fugui worked hard to practice eighteen kinds of cooking skills and embarked on the road of struggle to become the chief royal chef.

However, fate has already been decided!

Grandpa is dead, the doctor is dead, Xiao Feidi is gone, and Little Bee is dead...

"After reading it again, I still feel panicked. You are such a cruel person! How can this ending be so depressing?"

"Watch it again?!"

Hou Bin keenly caught the loophole in Mr. Gu's words and said with a strange expression: "Mr. Gu, have you read this script before?"

"Uh! Slip of the tongue!"

Gu Miao waved her hand: "Answer my question first, what do you think? You actually wrote such an extremely depressing story?"

"This is not a script I wrote..."

"This was written by a friend of mine who is a TV drama screenwriter." Hou Bin explained.

"He told me that every time, justice defeats evil, and everyone gets the best and happy ending. If justice fails to defeat evil on one occasion, it will definitely leave a deep impression on the audience."

"That's so profound..."

Gu Miao's face showed bitterness. This ending was simply a model of depression. Xiao Fugui, Xiao Lizi, Xiao Feidi, and the little emperor basically all had no good endings.

In the end, Xiao Fugui rode his horse galloping, and in a trance he heard Xiao Feidi's laughter and laughter, which made people feel even more panicked.

Does this also require a knife?

It’s okay if the story doesn’t have a happy ending. Why didn’t Xiao Fugui and Xiao Feidi get together in the end?

It hurts, it hurts too much...

When Gu Miao thought of this animation, she thought of the famous scene that summer when she saw Little Plum lying on the ground on TV, breaking down and shouting "Master K, you lied to me".

In a time of war and chaos, all living beings are suffering.

This is also the main reason why Gu Miao is unwilling to define "Master Chef Xiao Fugui" as a gourmet series.

Because in his opinion, the plot of "Master Chef Xiao Fugui" has long gone beyond the scope of conventional gourmet shows, and the stories told are no longer about simple food and cooking skills.

certainly!

No matter how you say it, the core of the story of "Master Chef Xiao Fugui" is Xiao Fugui's cooking skills and food, so...

This is really a gourmet show!

Although I feel helpless that this animation is actually a "food show", I should not say that judging from the response after the original "Master Chef Xiao Fugui" animation was broadcast, Hou Bin's friend's statement has been confirmed Confirm.

Justice failed to defeat evil, almost all the main characters died, and the living people ended up in a miserable state...

This ending is indeed impressive. Even looking back many years later, former audiences will still feel a sense of pain in their hearts.

The knife was too harsh.

When other animation screenwriters use knives, at most they rub salt into the audience's wounds. Although it is painful, it is not fatal. However, when "Master Chef Xiao Fugui" uses knives, it goes straight to the heart.

Are you still happy that Xiao Fugui has become the chief royal chef and is in charge of eighteen pieces of gold kitchen utensils?

Wake up!

People around him are either dead or gone. What's the use of getting gold kitchen utensils? What's the use of becoming the chief royal chef? Can Grandpa and Little Bee come back to life? Can you bring Xiao Feidi back?

"The ending is actually open-ended..."

Seeing that Mr. Gu was not in a high mood, Hou Bin worried that he thought the ending was too tragic, so he deliberately said in a positive way: "Except for the dead characters, we have not explained the fate of other characters. It is entirely possible for Xiao Fugui and Xiao Feidi to reunite .”

"Those are just good wishes." Gu Miao shook her head and said, "In that turbulent era, filled with all kinds of wars and disputes, you and I both know how low the probability of two people living a stable life is. "

"The same goes for Xiao Lizi. As a eunuch, he was abandoned by Master K. He will definitely not end well in the Last Dynasty."

"As for the imprisoned little emperor, his ending has long been written in the history books, and there is nothing to say."

"this……"

Hou Bin did not deny Mr. Gu's conjecture, because according to the background of the story, the ending of these people would most likely be like this.

no way!

Living in troubled times, living an ignoble existence.

The so-called open ending is just to relieve the depression in the hearts of the audience. You can't just tell the audience everything about Xiao Fugui, Xiao Lizi and Xiao Feidi's wandering life for the rest of their lives, right?

That would be too cruel.

"Mr. Gu, if you are worried that this story is too sad and heavy and will not be popular with children, then I will go back and ask my friend to change it."

Hou Bin explained: "You can keep little Fugui's grandfather and little bee alive, and even bring little Feidi and little Fugui together, and little Lizi can also see his parents..."

"Why change it?"

Gu Miao frowned and said, "Have I ever said that this ending is not good?"

"ah?"

"But you...then..."

Hou Bin hesitated for a long time, and finally couldn't hold it in anymore, so he simply asked directly: "Then what do you mean?"

"What I mean is, I approved this project!" Gu Miao waved her hand and said, "Just follow the current script, and don't give me any family-friendly ending."

"Fat the knife, give me the knife hard!"

"I'll give you whatever money you want. I have only one request! That is, after the animation is broadcast, the audience must cry and drop little pearls..."

Gu Miao's eyes narrowed, and she stared at Hou Bin and asked in a deep voice: "What should I say? Can you fulfill my request?"

"Yes, it must be possible!"

When Hou Bin heard this, he immediately patted his chest and promised: "Don't worry, Mr. Gu, I guarantee that the audience will burst into tears, and even if they are covered with quilts, they will be reported as noise nuisances by the neighbors."

"Okay, well said!"

"Then think about it, how much does this project cost?" Gu Miao touched her chin and said, "Such a good plot must be matched with excellent production, and the budget should be as high as possible."

"Really? Then I'm welcome!" Hou Bin rubbed his hands and raised a finger expectantly.

"How about 100 million?"

Gu Miao: "..."

He regretted it so much. If he had known that Hou Bin would submit such an outrageous budget request, he should have taken a plane directly to Shonan.

This is 100 million!

To exaggerate, 100 million could buy Hou Bin dozens of lives. The company's book cash flow is only 300-400 million. How dare he say it?

"What's wrong?" Seeing Mr. Gu gritting his teeth, Hou Bin touched the back of his head and asked, "Didn't you ask me to raise it higher? Isn't 100 million enough?"

"Okay! Of course..."

Gu Miao stood up, patted Hou Bin's shoulder heavily, and said with a smile: "It's only 100 million, who do you look down on?"

A mere 100 million is nothing!

Although he said it was fine, when Gu Miao signed the approval, he still couldn't help but want to complain in his heart.

Excluding "The Moon Is So Beautiful", this should be the TV animation with the highest pre-production budget so far at Wanbao Headquarters, right?

What a shame!

Trivia: "Master Chef Xiao Fugui", "The Adventures of Qiqi Keke" and "The Legend of Rainbow Cat and Blue Rabbit" are produced by the same company
