Chapter 131 Surprise? Shocked!
"surprise?"

Although Zhang Rui didn't know what the surprise Huang Xu was talking about, he was full of anticipation for the next part.

The environment in Seoul was a heavy blow to him when he first arrived here.

He even felt a little disillusioned, and now he urgently needed a new surprise to cheer him up again.

And it was for this reason that Huang Xu brought him here, to the music restaurant and bar that he opened with Kim Jong Kook and Ha Dongxun.

First of all, the food here basically provides Korean dishes with unique characteristics.

Not only are there the barbecues that have been served before, but following Huang Xu's suggestion, a lot of other side dishes have been added.

But basically they are all Korean specialties, and as Zhang Rui’s first meal after arriving in Korea, it is a good choice.

The second reason is that Korean stars often appear here.

It’s not because of anything else, but because of some suggestions Huang Xuhe gave them, that is, from time to time, they would find some newly debuted celebrity idols to sing a song and perform in the restaurant to increase the popularity of the restaurant.

Moreover, because the price of their activities in Korea is relatively cheap, and many younger artists admire Kim Jong Kook, the cost of their performances here is basically just a token of their appreciation.

This is also the reason why Kim Jong Kook must join before the restaurant starts.

After all, his title of Triple Crown is still very appealing to new artists.

Their performance here was not very important, they just needed to sing a few simple songs and it didn't take much time.

But it is because of them that this music restaurant and bar has gained considerable fame within less than a month of opening.

The second reason why Huang Xu brought Zhang Rui here was because celebrities often appeared here. If he was lucky, he might be able to give Zhang Rui a big surprise.

However, Huang Xu looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar barbecue restaurant in front of him, and he felt a little nervous.

Although he had no requirements for the performance of the barbecue restaurant, he didn't even care much about the profits here.

However, when he saw that there were basically no people in the store, he couldn't help but feel a little worried.

Although it is not the main time for meditation yet, it is already around five o'clock. Isn't it a bit too quiet now?

"Could it be that my thinking was wrong?"

With a skeptical mood, Huang Xu walked into the store and then saw Ha Dongxun who was about to go out.

When Ha Dongxun saw Huang Xu, he immediately walked over and gave Huang Xu a hug.

"Xiao Xu, when did you come back?"

"Um, I just got back."

Huang Xugang had just finished hugging Ha Dongxun and wanted to introduce Zhang Rui who was behind him.

However, He Dongxun excitedly began to tell the good news to Huang Xu.

"Xiao Xu, do you know? Thanks to your suggestion, our business is really good now. At night, our store is always full. We even need to make reservations in advance."

Although Ha Dong-hoon is an artist, he attaches great importance to his side business of running a restaurant.

He basically invested all his fortune in running the restaurant.

However, due to management problems in the past, his shop was not very popular, and it could even be said to be a bit deserted, which made him very uncomfortable.

However, after Huang Xu's guidance, the hotel has revived and now even during peak hours, reservations are required.

And all this happened because of Huang Xu's guidance.

A few days ago, he wanted to find Huang Xu to have a drink and have a good chat about future development, but it was a pity that Huang Xu was not in Korea.

Seeing Huang Xu today, he naturally wanted to thank him properly.

Although the table turnover rate is not very high because it is a music restaurant and bar, don't forget that the barbecue and drinks here are much more expensive than ordinary meals.

And they can also take a portion of the tips given by guests to the singers.

Therefore, the overall profit is still quite good.

He could even predict that within a few months, his restaurant would be able to recover its initial investment, and the rest would be counted as income.

In addition, the hotel has only been open for less than a month, but it has already occupied a place in Seoul's hotel market and has gained considerable fame.

Many underground singers come to the restaurant on their own and want to perform in the restaurant.

For these underground singers, the only performance venues for them, apart from performing on various pedestrian streets, are various bars and nightclubs.

However, the music that such places demand is basically songs with a hotter and more cheerful rhythm, and there is rarely a need for lyrical singers.

But the situation here in the music bar is a little different. Now the most popular songs here are various lyrical songs.

This is also the reason why so many people come here.

Hearing this, Huang Xu was also a little emotional. He didn't expect that just an idea he came up with would cause such a big response.

But at the same time, Huang Xu also felt a sense of urgency.

After all, his original idea was to use this opportunity to find some singers with potential as contracted artists for his own entertainment agency.

However, his own entertainment agency has no clue yet and has not even started yet, which makes Huang Xu anxious.

However, Huang Xu was chatting with He Dongxun and did not notice Zhang Rui's reaction behind him.

As a veteran fan of Korean entertainment, Zhang Rui is naturally familiar with Ha Dong-hoon, and is even very familiar with his face.

Ha Dong-hoon is a regular guest on two popular shows, Running Man and Infinite Challenge, so how could he not know him?

Therefore, when he saw that Huang Xu and He Dongxun were so familiar with each other, he couldn't help but be a little surprised, and even felt a little unbelievable.

In his opinion, celebrities should be more mysterious, even a little superior.

Huang Xu has only been in Korea for such a short time. Even if he knows any celebrities, they are just acquaintances and do not have a deep relationship.

But looking at the degree of familiarity between the two people in front of him, although he didn't quite understand their conversation, but looking at their states, he could still clearly see that their relationship was not ordinary.

That's why he seemed so shocked.

However, his shock did not last long, because after listening to the explanation, Huang Xu remembered Zhang Rui behind him, so he turned around and pulled him over.

Before Huang Xu introduced himself, He Dongxun started asking questions.

"Xiao Xu, who is this?"

"Haha, this is my friend from China. He is a loyal fan of yours."

When He Dongxun heard this, he quickly extended his hand to Zhang Rui and greeted him in his broken Chinese.

"Okay, I'm Ha Dong-hoon, nice to meet you."

"Hello."

Huang Xu looked at the two people greeting each other, especially Zhang Rui's nervous look, and couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.

He even said that if the occasion wasn't inappropriate, he would have wanted to record the video and save it.

He did not lie when he said that Zhang Rui was a fan of Ha Dongxun. Although Zhang Rui was not a fan of Ha Dongxun personally, as a loyal fan of Running Man, it was not wrong to say that he was a fan of his. It was precisely because of this that Zhang Rui was so excited and nervous.

At this moment, Zhang Rui, looking at He Dongxun's outstretched hands, felt like he was dreaming.

He didn't expect that after arriving in Seoul, he would be able to meet celebrities so soon and greet them at such a close distance.

Although his mind was confused, his hands moved quickly. He directly shook Ha Dongxun's hand and greeted him in Chinese.

But he couldn't remember what to say next.

Ha Dongxun's Chinese proficiency is only limited to the greeting. If you ask him to say a few more words, he really won't be able to say anything.

Then the two of them froze in awkward silence.

This made Huang Xu unable to hold back his laughter, but he still acted as an interpreter to help the two communicate.

However, this conversation did not last long. Ha Dong-hoon had another program to record, so the conversation only lasted a few minutes. He left in a car at the urging of his agent.

However, even though they only communicated for a few minutes, Zhang Rui was very satisfied.

Even when she followed Huang Xu to the dining table, she was still looking at the photo on her phone and grinning foolishly.

And while waiting for the food to be served, he posted the photo he had just taken with Ha Dong-hoon to the university's Korean entertainment fan sharing group.

If you want to watch Korean entertainment programs in their entirety in China at this time, you still need to find the corresponding resources.

And this group is where they share their resources with each other.

The people in the group are all classmates or friends in the club who are interested in Korean entertainment.

It is precisely because of this that Zhang Rui's photo made the originally relatively calm group chat, like a huge rock thrown into a calm lake, causing ripples.

It even blew out many people who had been diving for a long time.

"Zhang Rui, have you seen Haha?"

"Zhang Rui, have you been to Korea?"

"Dong Hoon??"

"When did you go to Korea?

"."

Zhang Rui looked at the constantly refreshing information in the group, and his heart was filled with excitement.

After all, this is the time when the variety show Running Man is very popular, and many people in China like to watch this show.

However, not many people actually met the characters in the film and took photos with them.

And no one in their group has ever posted a group photo.

Therefore, everyone in the group at this time was frantically @张瑞想, wanting to ask him where he met Ha Dongxun and took a photo with him.

Huang Xu looked at Zhang Rui's excited expression and his frantic reply to messages, and shook his head helplessly.

He understood Zhang Rui's thoughts at this moment and knew what he was doing.

But he had to speak up now to interrupt his excitement.

"Brother Rui, don't reply to the message yet, let's eat first, there will be a surprise later."

"Is there any surprise?"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Rui immediately turned his attention from the phone to Huang Xu, wanting to ask what the next surprise would be.

In his opinion, it was already a great surprise to meet Ha Dong-hoon today and take a photo with him.

As a result, Huang Xu said that there would be another surprise next, which made him excited.

At the same time, I also want to know what the next surprise will be.

However, Huang Xu did not answer his question, but urged him to eat as soon as possible and talk about it after the meal.

That is why Zhang Rui felt that tonight's Korean-style dinner was tasteless.

After all, although the food here tastes good, it is nothing special for someone like Zhang Rui who was born and raised in a chef's family.

Just a novelty treat.

But at this time, he was already overwhelmed by the excitement of seeing the star, so he ate absent-mindedly.

Huang Xu looked at him like this and didn't say anything, but just started eating.

After both of them had eaten their fill, Huang Xu looked at the time and realized it was still quite early. If he wanted to wait here for the singer to perform, it would take at least another hour. He had a headache.

After all, he came here just to let Zhang Rui see the star's performance up close.

It's just that he miscalculated the time and arrived a little early.

But because of this, he also took him to meet Ha Dong-hoon and took a photo with him.

So he said to Zhang Rui:

"Are you tired? How about we find you a place to stay first and surprise you later?"

"No, I'm still waiting for the surprise you mentioned."

Zhang Rui was very excited at this moment and did not feel tired at all, so he was allowed to rest now. He would rather go and see what the surprise Huang Xu mentioned was.

Looking at Zhang Rui's excited expression at this moment, Huang Xu felt a little upset.

Although he only needs to wait here, he can see some celebrity performances and fulfill Zhang Rui's wish.

But he didn't want to wait any longer, because he was already accustomed to Korean stars.

Let’s not talk about how many girl group idols he knows, let’s just talk about how many celebrities he invited to perform when his restaurant opened.

As long as he wants, he can basically see all the common stars.

And don't forget, his current girlfriend is a member of Girls' Generation, so he is really not surprised by celebrities.

But now Zhang Rui was obviously waiting for the "surprise" he mentioned, which made him a little embarrassed.

However, Huang Xu's eyes turned and he suddenly remembered something, so he said to Zhang Rui:
"Let's go, there's a surprise at home, I'll show it to you when we get home."

Then he led Zhang Rui back to his community and to the door of his home.

What Huang Xu didn't expect was that as soon as he opened the door, he saw the lights in the house were on and two people were already playing games on the sofa.

"Why are you here?"

As Huang Xu exclaimed, Zhang Rui, who followed him in, was stunned after seeing the two people clearly, with his mouth wide open, as if he was frightened.
