Chapter 593 - 282: The Short Drama Script of "Great-Grandma at 18" with Ten Thousandfold Returns!
Seeing the mention of "Food and Cooking" in the first piece of intelligence.
Jiang Tao thought of the recipe for roasted whole lamb in a tandoor he bought from Zhuang Xiaofei back in his hometown, Ping County.
After systematic analysis and optimization, that recipe had also reached a system-level.
However...
He’s been busy with various things lately, so this skill has been "put in the bottom drawer" and hasn’t been showcased yet.
He plans to add the roasted whole lamb to the menu as a signature dish once Jiang’s Delicious Claypot Restaurant opens.
Make the roasted whole lamb a featured dish of the restaurant.
He originally felt that having only one dish might be too monotonous.
Now with "Food and Cooking," his culinary skills can be elevated several levels.
When time allows, he can try to fully utilize his system-level culinary skills to develop a few more signature dishes for the restaurant.
After reading the first piece of intelligence, Jiang Tao continued to refresh for the next one.
[Today’s Intelligence 02]:
You had contact with Gu Lina yesterday and obtained the following intelligence—
Gu Lina’s ongoing novel "Eighteen-year-old Great-grandmother" on a female-oriented website has great potential for adaptation into a short series!
Purchasing the rights for adaptation can yield ten thousand times the return!
...
"Who is Gu Lina?"
"Eighteen-year-old Great-grandmother short series?"
"Ten thousand times the return!"
Seeing today’s second piece of intelligence, Jiang Tao was puzzled yet surprised.
He tried to recall all the people he met today.
Suddenly, he remembered the big fan at KFC who took a photo with Jiang An’an and asked for her autograph.
"Right, I remember when that girl introduced herself, she seemed to say her name was something like Na."
To Jiang Tao, Gu Lina was originally just a fleeting passerby in his life, and he hadn’t bothered to remember her name.
"Turns out she’s a female author."
"But how do I get in touch with her?"
"By the way, her book’s title is Eighteen-year-old Great-grandmother, sounds interesting, let’s search for her book first."
Jiang Tao used to be a regular reader on a male-oriented website, and his leisure activity after work was reading books.
Compared to Zhang Chao going for massages and foot baths, Liu Zhiyuan and Shan Yufei drinking and playing cards, Wang Lianming playing games.
Reading novels is relatively low-cost and brings enormous satisfaction as entertainment.
Recently, as Jiang Tao’s wealth has been growing rapidly, he’s been very fulfilled every day and has less time to spend on reading novels.
The last time he read a novel was before the Chinese New Year.
He opened the reading app on his phone, clicked into the female section, and entered "Eighteen-year-old Great-grandmother" in the search bar.
Upon seeing the book has only over 600,000 words and is already complete, Jiang Tao sighed a little.
600,000 words would be too short for the male section, it should at least reach over a million words!
Moreover, this book has less than 1,000 favorites.
Jiang Tao didn’t know how it fared on the female side, but in the male section, it’s definitely a flop among flops.
He opened the book’s details page, and the author’s name was "Nana No Flops."
"Nana... should be that Gu Lina."
Jiang Tao went into the book’s text and skimmed through the first three Chapters to get a general idea of the book’s situation.
After reading the golden first three Chapters, Jiang Tao had a basic understanding of the story.
The story begins with a woman from the 1970s or 80s who got crushed by a chandelier while saving her son.
When she opens her eyes, she finds herself becoming an eighteen-year-old girl, attending the same class as her grandson.
Jiang Tao didn’t continue with the subsequent plot.
Usually, he reads quickly and superficially, mainly for the thrill.
The detailed writing style in female-oriented novels is somewhat unfriendly to an old chap like him.
"Since the system assesses the book’s market potential as huge, offering ten thousand times the return, it must be based on reason."
"The book doesn’t seem to have great stats, so the rights shouldn’t be too expensive, which works in my favor."
"Tomorrow, I’ll try to contact the site’s rights department to inquire about the sale of rights for this series."
Jiang Tao tapped his finger to close the reading app’s interface and continued to check today’s third and final piece of intelligence.
[Today’s Intelligence 03]:
You had contact with Xu Li yesterday and obtained the following intelligence—
Xu Li is the destined lead female for "Eighteen-year-old Great-grandmother," and she has always had a dream of acting.
Destined actress + destined script can maximize returns!
...
"Destined lead female? Dream of acting?"
After reading the final piece of intelligence, Jiang Tao looked down with some surprise at Xu Li, peacefully sleeping in his arms.
Having been married to Xu Li for so many years, he didn’t know she actually had a dream of acting.
Furthermore...
Jiang Tao found that when using the [Bo Le] skill to view Xu Li, she showed no particular talent in acting.
Yet the system claims she’s the destined lead female for "Eighteen-year-old Great-grandmother."
"Could it be because the silly wife is beautiful, has a good figure, and fits the character image?"
Jiang Tao didn’t know how the system determined Xu Li, who had no acting experience, as the destined lead female.
But he knew the intelligence provided by the system was absolutely genuine and reliable, no doubt about that.
"Then let me help fulfill your dream!"
Jiang Tao bent down and kissed Xu Li’s full and fair forehead, looking at her with gentle eyes.
With a thought, he closed the system interface, lay down on the pillow, and started to sleep.
