The train at 18:35 on the 16th was originally scheduled to arrive around 23:00 on the 18th. Anyone who has taken the train knows that it is not too late without a train. Therefore, when Zhang Shaoping and his party walked out of the train station, it was already 6:25 am on the 19th.

The bus stop is not far from the railway station. In this era, buses were the only public transportation for the people of the capital.

"You are not familiar with the road in life, so why don't you go with us?"

After leaving the train station, Liu Xiaolingtong invited Zhang Shaoping and his party to go with their brigade. Who knew that Zhang Shaoping refused politely, which made Liu Xiaolingtong widen his eyes and asked disbelief.

"Okay, buddy, look, someone is here to pick me up!" Zhang Shaoping patted Liu Xiaolingtong on the shoulder, and thrust his mouth towards the two vans on the street, and said with a smile.

Zhang Shaoping recognized that the few people standing next to the two vans were the employees assigned to the Beijing Forefront Station. However, Yang Jie saw that both cars had signs from government departments, and they seemed to be attracting investment.

"Okay, Xiao Zhang, let's leave now. When you find your place, tell me that Liu Xiaolingtong and others will come to visit you." After seeing this, Yang Jie took the speech and said happily, nodded to Zhang Shaoping, and took the crew to the bus stop.

Looking at the figures of Yang Jie, Liu Xiaolingtong and others leaving, Zhang Shaoping stood still for a long time.

Who would have thought that on a train trip, he happened to meet the crew of "Journey to the West".

The short journey brought Zhang Shaoping the shock that touched his soul. In this time and space, it was not long, but it had developed a heart of iron and stone. It was rarely moved by certain things and people, but this time was an exception.

This is a group of the purest film and television personnel. It is not famous because they never thought that after "Journey to the West" was filmed, it would be so popular that it is so popular that it is world-famous for just one drama. Moreover, except for the several starring actors who received the rewards after their hard work, others worked hard but were unknown. It is not for profit, because the pay for several starring actors such as Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie was only 80 yuan per episode. A TV series spans several years, and the salary obtained after filming is not enough to match the work income of ordinary people. They only have TV series adapted from their own masterpieces in foreign countries, but China does not. They feel that the heavy responsibility is on their shoulders, and what they do is just to make good Chinese masterpieces, and the purpose of the Chinese masterpieces is so simple.

For this generation, this is an era full of hope and pioneering, and everything is worth it for dreams.

"Zhang Sheng, it's snowing outside, it's time to leave." Chen Feihu called out.

"Let's go."

Zhang Shaoping quickly walked towards the van, dusted the snowflakes on his body, and got in.

The Second Service Bureau of Beijing sent a cadre surnamed Ren and accompanied Zhang Shaoping around, mainly to inspect several locations to be selected. Of course, there is also a way to see the famous buildings in Beijing.

Zhang Shaoping came to Tiananmen Square. On Chang'an Street in front of Tiananmen Square, a few motor vehicles were dotted on the wide road. At first glance, it looked a bit like the closed streets of Pyongyang, Korea, which were later.

At this time, there were very few motor vehicles in Beijing, and even fewer private vehicles. In 1979, it was estimated that there were only 89,000 motor vehicles in Beijing, and at this time it would never exceed the 300,000 mark.

In fact, this is not only a problem in Beijing, but in the whole country, there are many people and fewer cars. Because the control of automobile production is in the hands of the State Planning Commission, automobile production is 220,000 vehicles per year, while the production of cars is only 4,000 vehicles, which is a serious shortage of supply. In June last year, Chen Zutao, general manager of China Automobile Company, joined hands with some people to hand the report to the chief designer, and finally received an approval: "Ships can be jointly invested." Then the opening was opened, and imported vehicles soared.

But even so, the vehicles on the street are still mainly buses and official cars. Shanghai brand sedan was the main model of official cars at that time, so most of the cars I saw were Shanghai brand sedans. Speaking of buses, Zhang Shaoping was an eye-opener. All of them were red-shelled Skodas in Czech Republic, with old style and great collection value.

The van was slowly driving along Chang'an Street. Zhang Shaoping found that there were only a handful of buildings on both sides. In this way, no matter how many vehicles there were on the road, they would not be congested. What impressed him the most was the Liubukou intersection in the middle section of West Chang'an Street. There were countless bicycles lined up with long rows of bicycles that were invisible. When the green light lit up, the bicycle in front of him was like a Tour de France, and thousands of troops rushed over. It was densely packed, like a mountain torrent, giving people an unstoppable shocking vision. This visual impact made the Hong Kong people who were used to seeing the whistle of cars. It was so amazing!

After walking for two days, Zhang Shaoping even visited the Quanjude time-honored brand with "roasted duck" and the Shandong restaurant Zhimeizhai, which features "Four Fish Makings" and the Yuebin Restaurant in Cuihua Hutong. As the first individual restaurant in Beijing, the customer flow is amazing and the threshold is almost broken. When Zhang Shaoping went there, he queued up and ordered three dishes and one soup - pot roast duck, fish-flavored pork shredded pork, cabbage and duck rack tofu soup. He ordered three bottles of beer, which cost 4.5 cents. Because the beer is 3.9 cents a bottle, which means that three dishes and one soup is only 3.4 cents.

Some people may say, can you make money with such low consumption? The answer is yes. Because the prices are lower, they will remain low until the second half of 1988.

After two days, Zhang Shaoping was quite satisfied with three places. One was the south entrance of Wangfujing, where the later Oriental Plaza was located. The second was the area around Chongwenmen West Street, not far from Cuihua Hutong. The third was the intersection of Xidan Road.

Zhang Shaoping thought about it and finally decided that the first Family Food Restaurant in Beijing was located at the intersection of Xidan Road. Because the flow of people is greater than the traffic flow of traffic at the intersection of Xidan Road, and the first pedestrian crossing bridge in Beijing, the Xidan pedestrian crossing overpass, has just been built. There are many people and easy walking, and there are many people in and out of the sports industry, the press and foreign friends. These three points are enough to make the Family Food Restaurant popular to the top.

Of course, Xidan Road is the first choice, and other places will automatically become the best location for the next batch of expansion branches. According to Zhang Shaoping's estimate, it takes less than half a year to open one or three more branches in Beijing. The difference in time is half a year or several months, which is no problem at all. The key is to establish a brand and establish a reputation.

As soon as the contract was signed with the government, the staff immediately called the construction team and offered a high price to ask them to work to decorate, decorate and arrange them.

During this period, on the 22nd, Yang Jie and Liu Xiaolingtong visited each other and Zhang Shaoping mentioned the recruitment of art and art talents.

Yang Jie thought for a while and said, "The most outstanding talents are basically in China, Bayi, Zhujiang, Xi'an, Changchun Factory and Shanghai's six major film studios. The remaining part is on CCTV. If you want to invite people with strong technical experience and ability, you probably won't be able to invite them."

"Haha, of course I can't hire people who are too famous, but I don't need these elites. I just need their basic skills and excellent skills! For example, students from the Film Academy or the Academy of Fine Arts can go south to Guangdong Province and work in Shenzhen."

Zhang Shaoping does not attach much importance to the so-called "famous masters" at present. It is good to have it, but it doesn't matter if it doesn't. Only young students who have been systematically studied by the college are what Zhang Shaoping values ​​the most. They are the fifth generation of film and television talents in China.

In 1982, when the graduation assignment of Beijing Film Academy began, Tian Zhuang-chung went to Beijing Film Academy, Chen Kaige was assigned to the children's film studio, Zhang Yimou, He Yu, Zhang Junzhao, and Xiao Feng went to the Guangxi Film Studio, officially kicking off the fifth generation of film and television talents. These people have not yet emerged, but in less than a few years, they will be active in the film industry and lay the foundation for their glorious era.

Yang Jie didn't think so far. When she heard Zhang Shaoping only found some graduates, she smiled and said, "If you only recruit some students, that's good. When will I find time? I'll take you to the Central Academy of Drama, the Central Academy of Art, and the Beijing Film Academy. You can recruit people directly at that time." "I'm going to Shanghai tomorrow, wait for me to come back. I'll bother you again."

"You want to go to Shanghai? Shanghai's Theatre Academy is also quite famous. The students there are more open-minded. I guess there will be more people willing to go to the Shenzhen Stock Exchange in the South." Hearing that Zhang Shaoping was going to Shanghai Stock Exchange, Yang Jie immediately mentioned, "I'll write you an introduction letter. At that time, you can go to Mr. Li Tianqi. He is the head of the Shanghai Art Association, good at comic strips, and has a lot of friendship with people in Shanghai Opera."

"Comic?" Zhang Shaoping's eyes lit up and said hurriedly, "Director Yang, well, actually, that... comic strip painter is quite suitable for film and television art artists. Otherwise, you can introduce me to some famous comic strip artists. I don't need these famous artists to go south to Shenzhen Stock Exchange. They just need to have a consultant title in my company, and I will still pay them. They don't need to do anything, but when my company encounters bottlenecks in art art design, they have to help me solve it."

Zhang Shaoping was hesitant before, but later he became more and more smooth, and he expressed his intentions like a machine gun. Comic talents are serious painters, and their abilities in film and television are obvious to all. For example, the animation "The Great Trouble in the Heavenly Palace" in the 1960s was painted by these comic strips.

Yang Jie laughed and laughed happily: "Then you should go to the sea, and there are many comic strips there, especially Mr. Li Tianqi. He has many students all over the world. His disciples alone are enough for you to recruit.

When you come back from Shanghai, I will take you to meet famous comic strips in Beijing. However, how many people can be recruited depends on your ability. To be honest, these people are not easy to invite. They are either successful or noble. Many people are even pursuing the art of comic strips. If you want them to give up and specialize in film and television art, you may not be optimistic."
