Chapter 113 Meeting the Character Himself

Fujiwara Kei recognized the other person. This person was also an actor. His name seemed to be Takagi Nobu Satoshi, and he was considered an actor.

The bald boss said: "Generally, ketchup is put on the pot of pork, which tastes similar to sweet and sour pork. The old-fashioned version doesn't."

"That's right, which one is more delicious?"

"almost."

Nobu Satoshi Takagi seemed to have thought about it very seriously. He wanted to order something old-fashioned, but he was afraid of choking. He wanted to order something with tomato, but he felt that it tasted the same as sweet and sour pork. It would be better to just eat sweet and sour pork.

When he was hesitating, Fujiwara Kei said: "Mr. Takagi, if you don't mind, let's share the table."

Nobu Satoshi Takagi clenched his fist and punched the palm of his other hand, "Of course I don't mind, I can eat two flavors this way."

With that said, Nobu Satoshi Takagi sat opposite Kei Fujiwara.

The boss went to order the kitchen to cook. Kei Fujiwara looked at Nobu Satoshi Takagi and asked: "Mr. Takagi, don't you need to go to the set today?"

"I'm done." Nobu Satoshi Takagi smiled and said, "That's why I came here to have a delicious meal to celebrate. By the way, Mr. Fujiwara, why did you come so far away to eat?"

Of course, Kei Fujiwara was embarrassed to say that he was greedy, so he put on a helpless look: "I recently planned to film a food drama and collect delicious restaurants from the audience. This restaurant is on the list, so I came here to have a look. If it lives up to its name, I plan to use this store as filming material.”

"Oh?" Nobu Satoshi Takagi looked interested, "What stores are there?"

Kei Fujiwara thought for a moment and directly named the top stores on the list collected by the staff.

Nobu Satoshi Takagi would react every time he mentioned a store. Either nod and say, "This is really good," or shake the head, "The boss has changed, and now his son is in charge. The taste is far behind, and the ingredients are no longer fresh. I will never go there again."

Kei Fujiwara was a little surprised: "Mr. Takagi has eaten at all these places."

Nobu Satoshi Takagi smiled proudly and said: "To tell you the truth, not only in the Kanto region, but also in places like Osaka and Hokkaido, there are no gourmet restaurants that I don't know about, unless they are just opened. Haha, Mr. Fujiwara is lucky, I can be you New drama consultant. Food drama? It sounds mouth-watering. I will eat while watching the drama."

Hearing this, Kei Fujiwara suddenly thought of something and looked up and down Nobu Satoshi Takagi.

There is no need to find an actor for this...this is the prototype...

"How come Mr. Takagi has been to so many good places?" Fujiwara Kei asked with a smile.

"My father loved traveling and took me to many places when I was young. I was not interested in the scenery, but the special delicacies of each place left a deep impression on me."

The two chatted for a while, and then two different flavors of hotpot meat were served. Also served one after another were the ants climbing the tree ordered by Kei Fujiwara and the three fresh vegetables ordered by Nobu Satoshi Takagi.

Kei Fujiwara lowered his head and glanced at the weight, sighing secretly in his heart. It seemed that not only the taste, but also the weight had followed the local customs.

"I'm starting." Takagi Nobutong clasped his hands together, rubbed the chopsticks away, and then picked up an old-fashioned piece of meat, and immediately choked and coughed.

"Oh, it's really embarrassing. Although it's delicious, I'm really not used to it." However, as he said that, he picked up another piece and coughed more violently.

"Slow down." Kei Fujiwara poured him a glass of water.

"Thank you, thank you." Takagi Nobutong thanked him quickly, but tasted the delicious food more carefully.

He takes every bite he takes with great care, chews it slowly, and really tastes every bite of food. He also eats cleanly and neatly, with no vegetable soup or residue spewing out, and he eats very elegantly.

It's so suitable...

Fujiwara Kei's eyes lit up when he looked at Takagi Nobu Satoshi, but Takagi Nobu Satoshi didn't notice Fujiwara Kei's passionate eyes at all and was focused on the food in front of him.

"Oh, that's so rude." Nobu Satoshi Takagi took two bites. Only then did he realize that Kei Fujiwara hadn't moved his chopsticks. He quickly put down his chopsticks and invited with some embarrassment: "You can eat too, Mr. Fujiwara."

Fujiwara Kei picked up a piece of pot-roasted pork. It tasted exactly as he remembered. It was a bit spicy. The soft meat slices were wrapped in the crispy shell. It was so delicious that it made you want to cry.

"By the way, Mr. Takagi, now that your play is finished, do you still have any shooting tasks next?" Kei Fujiwara asked.

Takagi Nobutong shook his head and said: "No more for now, the agent didn't notify me."

"Are you interested in joining my new drama?" Kei Fujiwara asked.

"New drama? Food drama?"

Fujiwara Kei nodded: "To be honest, that drama is still in the preliminary stage, and even the male lead is being searched for. I think you are very suitable."

Nobu Satoshi Takagi thought for a while and said, "Teacher Fujiwara, can you tell me the main content of this drama in general?"

Kei Fujiwara spent a minute describing the general content of the show "The Lonely Gourmet". In fact, one sentence is enough to describe it. It is the daily life of an ordinary middle-aged uncle who goes to various restaurants to eat during his breaks from work.

Nobu Satoshi Takagi smiled: "Teacher Fujiwara, this person seems to be very similar to me."

"Who says it isn't?" Fujiwara Kei said, "This role is really suitable for you."

"But... it's positioned as a night drama, and the plot is so bland, won't the audience like it?" Nobu Satoshi Takagi asked worriedly.

In fact, this worry is not unreasonable. You must know that Yutaka Matsushige, the star of the original "Lonely Gourmet", expressed doubts: What is so interesting about an ordinary uncle eating? The ratings are still so high.

But in fact, whether the audience watches "A Bite of China", "The Lonely Gourmet", or those endless food videos on the Internet, what they watch is not the plot at all, but how to enjoy the food with their eyes.

"Don't worry about this, Mr. Takagi. This is an experimental work in itself. Moreover, even if the results are really unsatisfactory, you will not be less paid."

"Haha." Nobu Satoshi Takagi slapped his thigh, "I've heard of Mr. Fujiwara's name a long time ago. I didn't expect that I would be so lucky that I would have the opportunity to cooperate with you. Okay, I'll do it!"

"Then I'll treat you to this meal."

"No, no, no, how can this be so embarrassing..."

The two chatted while eating. First, they chatted about the drama for a while. Gradually, it seemed that under the intentional guidance of Takagi Shinto, they began to talk about food.

Fujiwara Kei talked eloquently about the various dishes in the land of China. Northeastern cuisine is just the tip of the iceberg. Takagi Nobu Satoshi kept swallowing his saliva and silently included traveling to China among his plans after retirement. schedule.

Nobutoshi Takagi thought that he was already a veteran in the broadcasting industry, but he didn't expect that the young man in front of him knew and knew how to eat better than him. Originally, Nobu Satoshi Takagi didn't think it was a big deal that Fujiwara Kei won the spring championship, but now I really admire him from the bottom of my heart and feel sincerely close to him.

It's a pity that I'm too young. It would be great if I was a few years old, so I can retire around the same time, and we can eat and drink together.

After eating, Kei Fujiwara settled the bill, and the two went directly to Yui Mizuhara to confirm the starring role of Nobutoshi Takagi.

Nobu Satoshi Takagi is indeed a gourmet. He knows a lot about Tokyo’s hotels and restaurants. He took the production team to several of his favorite restaurants. Everyone felt good after eating there. They felt that the restaurants recommended by Nobu Satoshi Takagi were better than those recommended by food magazines. Much more reliable.

After the preliminary preparations were almost done, "The Lonely Gourmet" was officially launched.
