1 美 The Gourmet’s Supplier 美食供应商 The Cat Who Can Cook会做菜的猫Urban6.0M WordsCompleted “In the distant East, there is a strange little restaurant that has turned down Michelin three-star ratings several times. It’s expensive: a bowl of egg fried rice with soup costs RMB 288. Oh, I forgot, it also comes with a plate of pickles. Even so, plenty of people line up for a table. The restaurant doesn’t take reservations. You have to queue in person, and countless people fly in on private jets just to get in line. Of course, there’s no place to park your plane or your car.

"In the far East, there exists a strange little shop that has repeatedly refused Michelin three-star ratings. The prices are exorbitant; a bowl of fried rice with soup costs 288 RMB, oh, and it includes a side of kimchi, yet even so, long queues form. They don't accept reservations, only walk-ins, and countless people arrive by private jet specifically to queue, though of course, no parking or landing spots are provided. The service is appalling; customers are expected to serve themselves, clear their own dishes, and even wipe the tables! Good heavens, this owner must be insane." —Michelin Guide Foodie group, everyone is welcome to join and chat: 526149614 Dragon Tiger Fight Main Group: Subscribe to all accounts to join! 577415455 Cai Mao appears unpredictably~

Actors and singers, athletes and comedians, idols and news anchors… the Japanese entertainment industry is a huge, bizarre, exclusive, and complex grotesque ecosystem. Actors and singers can only live in their works; the television stations are controlled by others. Late-night programs and big-name celebrities can sometimes make you exclaim "perverted" and sometimes make you awestruck. Idols and gravure idols—countless young girls with dreams throw themselves into this enormous furnace. It is extremely difficult for a foreigner, even one with Japanese citizenship, to live here, let alone a Chinese person. However, with making money as the priority, making movies and releasing records, and "winning glory for the country" as the ultimate goal, Zhou Xiao's more than ten years here changed the entire Japanese entertainment industry! "Now that I'm here, AKB's father will no longer be Akimoto Yasushi. Akimoto Yasushi will only be called AKB's mother."

His ideal life is to get by in peace, renting out a modest home and making enough to live on without ever getting rich.
