Chapter 262

No one knew what the person on the other end of the phone said, but the creative director's face became more and more sullen.

After hanging up the phone, he squeezed out a smile that was uglier than crying at Shi Sui and Xiangyi.

"I'm afraid we have to change our shooting plan."

Xiangyi asked, "Did something happen?"

The creative director sighed and said, "Actually, we are not in charge of contacting the owner of the castle directly. We are renting it through an intermediary.

Just now, the intermediary said that the viscount tasted a few Chinese dishes at the recent food festival. Because he found them too disgusting, he posted more than a dozen posts on his social media account, all of which were dissing Chinese cuisine.

He heard that the castle was rented to Chinese people for the shoot, so … "

Xiang Yi's expression was perplexed. Even in the fast-forward world, Westerners' acceptance of Chinese cuisine was still very high.

She asked curiously, "What food did he eat?"

The creative director searched for the viscount's social media account and showed it to Xiangyi.

Xiangyi glanced at a few posts, raised her eyebrows, and said to Shi Sui, "It seems that the viscount is a gourmet."

All the posts were related to food.

The pictures were beautiful and the writing was good.

When it came to delicious food, he would praise it to the heavens. He would use exaggerated rhetoric such as "God-given delicacies", "God-kissed hands", and "the gift of nature". He was a master of flattery.

When it came to disgusting food, he would directly criticize it, such as "It tastes as bad as smelly socks on a rainy day", "It's so disgusting that the best dish today was lemonade", "If he taught huskies how to cook, they would definitely be able to cook better than you", and other sarcastic remarks.

It was precisely because he was not short of money that he could ensure absolute fairness. Moreover, he was a glutton with tricky tastes, so he had countless fans and was famous for being a gourmet.

Many restaurants had a love-hate relationship with him. They loved that his casual praise could bring them great popularity, but they were also afraid that his criticism would cause the restaurant's business to plummet.

Xiang Yi scrolled to the comments he had made before, and her beautiful eyebrows furrowed.

"These … are at most improved dishes, right?"

Shi Sui said, "It seems a little like dark cuisine."

It was more than that.

It was like the devil's cuisine.

There were all kinds of strange and nondescript combinations. It was comparable to Chinese canteen dishes such as "fried meat with orange and lime" and "fried chili with five kernel mooncakes".

The creative director was like a frosted eggplant, listless and devoid of any fighting spirit. Suddenly, he heard Xiangyi ask in a gentle voice, "Can you contact this viscount? I think we can try harder. "

The creative director smiled bitterly and said, "This is not something that can be achieved with hard work alone. Lord Viscount has an eccentric personality. Apart from top-notch delicacies, nothing else will work on him … "

Xiangyi said seriously, "I want to treat him to a taste of real Chinese cuisine."

The creative director hesitated for a moment and asked, "Do you know any Michelin chefs? Then there might still be a chance … "

Xiangyi shook her head. "Although I don't know any Michelin chefs, I know a little about cooking."

The creative director was greatly disappointed, but he didn't want to discourage this lovely Asian beauty. He could only fake a smile and say, "I can try to contact them."

Shi Sui found a clip of "Two Under One Roof", which was a video of Xiangyi cooking and the delicious food at the end.

Out of courtesy, the creative director clicked play …

…

Five minutes later.

The creative director exclaimed, "Oh my God! It's so exciting! Watch it again! Let me watch it again! "
