Chapter 349: Will
In the afternoon, Sheng Kai exchanged views with Ye Qingqing and Chu Tiangang, and Chu Tiangang was very much in favor of organizing a cooking competition.
In fact, in his heart, he also thought of this plan, but he took into account the company's financial difficulties, so he never put it forward.
After exchanging views with him, Sheng Blossom said to him, "You try to make a draft plan before the evening meeting, so that everyone can discuss it at the meeting." If it works, we start implementing it right away. ”
Chu Tiangang knew that the funds had been settled, and said confidently: "No problem, I will definitely try my best to plan this event." This matter is related to whether the Golden Leaf Restaurant can come back to life, and it is also related to whether the Golden Leaf Company can go on, of course I will do my best. ”
Sure enough, before dinner, he had already made a plan.
Tianlong Restaurant has held this kind of competition before, so he is also familiar with the road.
The evening meeting was on time, and Shen Jingbin really sent Shen Wanhong over.
Chen Bawan saw Shen Wanhong and was respectful, after all, Shen Wanhong was a senior in the culinary industry. Although he Chen Bawan is not famous, the younger generation is the younger generation.
At the beginning of the meeting, Chu Tiangang sent his plan down, and everyone read it first, and then discussed it.
After reading the plan, Shen Wanhong said: "I make two suggestions, first, we should use the media to hype up before the game, and invite major media in Hancheng to report on the scene during the game, preferably live broadcast." Second, I just read the plan, and it's good overall, but there is one thing that I suggest to change, which is that the contestant's prize money will be doubled on the original basis. At the same time, the top three chefs can be specially hired as the special chef of Golden Leaf Restaurant. ”
Sheng Kai has already seen the plan, and the bonus set up above is 100,000 yuan for the first place, 50,000 yuan for the second place, 20,000 yuan for the third place, and five people with excellent awards, 10,000 yuan each. In other words, the total prize is 310,000.
If it doubles, that's 620,000.
As for inviting media publicity, on-site reporting, etc., it was mentioned in the plan, but in order to save money, it was only said that reporters from Hanseong TV's life channel would be invited.
After listening to Shen Wanhong's words, he felt that it made sense, severe cases still need strong medicine, if he still blindly cares about the cost at this time, it will inevitably be anticlimactic at that time, and the money will be spent, but the effect will not be achieved.
Before he could express his position, Chen Bawan said: "I also make a suggestion, doesn't our company have a website, we can publicize it on the Internet, and openly recruit ten food volunteers to be mass judges." Once these ten mass judges finalize the list, they can become the diamond VIP of my Golden Leaf Restaurant for free. ”
After he finished speaking, Ye Qingqing looked at everyone and asked, "Do you have any other suggestions?"
Everyone else shook their heads, and Ye Qingqing said: "I think the suggestion of Mr. Shen and President Chen just now is very good, but the interests of all shareholders are involved here, so all shareholders have to be invited to vote, and if it is passed, this plan will be handed over to the marketing department to start implementation." ”
Voting immediately began, and the seven shareholders unanimously approved, and these three articles were added to the plan.
The next day, the marketing department began to implement the plan.
Sheng Kai decided to go to He Zhengjun again, this time the Hancheng cooking competition, if there is an official to come forward and participate, the effect will be better.
He Zhengjun immediately agreed, and promised to participate in this cooking competition and become a judge of this competition.
With the participation of the government, the heads of non-governmental organizations such as the Hancheng Chamber of Commerce, the Hancheng Food Association, and the Hancheng Restaurant Alliance Association have also expressed their stance that they will definitely participate at that time.
In this competition, a total of five official judges were set up, namely He Zhengjun, deputy mayor of Hancheng City, Shen Wanhong, senior senior in the catering industry, Zhuge Wei, president of the catering association, Luo Ben, director of the market monitoring department of Hancheng Food Supervision Administration, and Chen Bo, director of the beauty column group of Hancheng TV.
In addition, there are 10 non-governmental judges, who sign up online, and after voting, the top 10 with the most votes are determined to be non-governmental judges.
Major newspapers, TV stations, Hancheng Food Network, Minsheng Network and other websites with food columns all made announcements on the headlines that Hancheng held a cooking competition. All contestants will register for free, and the winners will be on the list of famous chefs in Hancheng.
As a chef, this is the supreme honor. has been dealing with the kitchen all his life, and if he can be on the list of famous chefs, it will be considered a good way to learn to cook.
Moreover, the prize money set up in this competition is indeed attractive, if you can win the first prize, it is comparable to the salary of an average chef in the past two years.
The registration office is located in the Golden Leaf Restaurant Baishui Lake store, and there was no movement in the first two days. On the third day, people began to sign up.
The registration time is 10 days, and after the deadline, the organizing committee will draw lots to arrange the order of the competition, and the competition will be officially held three days later.
By the deadline for registration, more than 500 people had registered. According to the regulations, these more than 500 people will be in batches in the preliminaries of Baishui Lake store, and a round of elimination system will be implemented.
That is to say, twenty people participate in a round of competition, and the top ten will be promoted, and the bottom ten will be eliminated directly.
After the first round of preliminaries, the remaining 260 people will play the second round......
This kind of competition lasted for five days, and the Golden Leaf Restaurant Baishui Lake Store was full of colorful flags and crowds every day. The traffic of the Whitewater Lake store has increased significantly, and it has gradually returned to its peak state.
The entire competition was broadcast live by the life channel of Hancheng TV and became a special program.
Although there is no obvious improvement in other branches, Golden Leaf Restaurant has once again been on the hot search of Hancheng Minsheng Network, and it has also become a hot topic among Hancheng residents.
The sixth day of the competition is the finals, and the top 6 will be produced on this day.
Because it was a competition organized and hosted by Golden Leaf Restaurant, in order to avoid suspicion, Chen Jiaban gave up all the games. This approach has won unanimous praise from the judges and other contestants.
At the beginning, some people said that the prize money is so high, there must be shady, and when the time comes, the top few will all be gold leaf restaurants.
As a result, all the chefs of the Golden Leaf Restaurant did not participate, which was a slap in the face of these people.
This time, the total cost of more than 2 million yuan, but the role of advertising is of great significance.
After the competition, the negative news about Golden Leaf Restaurant gradually disappeared, and business gradually picked up in all branches. Although it has not yet returned to its previous state, it has at least recovered more than 60%. In this way, it can be ensured that the company's funds will not be broken again.
Seeing this situation, Sheng Kai, Ye Qingqing and others breathed a sigh of relief, as long as the business of the Golden Leaf Restaurant can be restored, the Golden Leaf Company can be maintained.
After the game, Sheng Kai went to visit Shen Wanhong once, and this time, his help had a huge impact.
Just when everyone breathed a sigh of relief and Ye Qingqing also felt a lot less pressure, two middle-aged men suddenly came to her office.
She knew both of them.
One surname Luo is called Luo Xingyuan, and the other surname is Lin Jiansheng.
Luo Xingyuan is a lawyer, he has been to Ye Mansion before, and he has helped the Chiba Group fight several lawsuits and won it.
Lin Jiansheng used to be the director of the development department of the Chiba Group, but two years ago, for some reason, he suddenly resigned and left, and has not been heard from since.
The sudden appearance of these two people surprised Ye Qingqing.
"Chairman Ye, I am on the orders of the old chairman to complete his will. ”
The first to speak was Luo Xingyuan, and when he spoke, he opened the briefcase in his hand, took out a sealed document bag, and handed it to Ye Qingqing with both hands.
There was nothing written on the bag, but the seal was clearly sealed with wax, and a seal was affixed to it, and there was a printed barcode on the seal.
If someone breaks the bag, the barcode will be destroyed.
Such a bag of documents is presumably reserved for the secrecy department.
Ye Qingqing took the document bag suspiciously, and looked at Luo Xingyuan puzzled.
"According to the old chairman's will, this document bag was originally to be handed over to you after Mr. Lin's affairs were completed, but now the matter is urgent and has to be advanced. Please take a look at Chairman Ye. ”
Luo Xingyuan saw Ye Qingqing hesitating, so he explained again.
Ye Qingqing's mind was confused for a while, this will came too suddenly. It's like when Ye Tianhong died too suddenly and didn't say anything to her.
However, this is Ye Tianhong's will, which weighs more than 1,000 catties in his hand.
Staring at the folder in her hand, her eyes blurred, tears rolling in her eyes. Now although she doesn't understand what the so-called Mr. Lin does to get things done, when she sees this document bag, she thinks of her grandfather, and she can't help but have mixed feelings.
She stretched out her fingers and pinched the thread above the file bag, and pulled the thread hard with a trembling force.
There was a slight tearing sound of paper ripping, and the file bag was opened.
She excitedly took out a few pieces of paper inside and hurriedly looked at them.
At the top is a letter, the letter that Ye Tianhong left for her. The letter is not long, just more than 200 words.
"Qingqing, when you read this letter, grandpa was no longer by your side. Don't be sad, come back sooner or later this day, you have to face life by yourself after all. Not to mention, I left this letter to tell you that half a year ago, I entrusted Luo Xingyuan and Lin Jiansheng to go to Yongxing County to buy an iron mine and leave it to you as an inheritance. Because if I leave you money, it will definitely cause a rivalry between several of your uncles and aunts. I bought this mine in your name, and the ownership belongs to you, but if you read this letter, the bloom is still with you, and 20% of the shares belong to him, this is my promise to him. I have let Luo Xingyuan smooth out all kinds of proofs and relationships, and there will be no mistakes. Grandpa hopes that you can use this mine to revive the Ye family in the future and make the Ye family a real famous family in Hancheng. ”
The following is Ye Tianhong's autograph and year, month and date.
She read it with tears in her eyes, although there are few words, but every word is so familiar, and every word is full of Ye Tianhong's love and expectation for herself.
Two tears fell on the letterhead, and Ye Qingqing couldn't cry anymore.
On letterhead, there is a mining contract, a mining authorization letter, and other documents.
She didn't have the heart to look at these now, and suddenly remembered what Luo Xingyuan said about the urgency, so she had to tell her about it in advance.
And after she saw Luo Xingyuan and Lin Jiansheng come in, her expressions were always very serious, as if something had happened.
She put down her hand in Chinese, turned her head to gently wipe her tears, and then looked at Luo Xingyuan and said, "Uncle Luo, thank you." You just said that the matter is urgent, I don't know what happened?"
Luo Xingyuan turned his head to look at Lin Jiansheng on the side, and said in a somewhat low tone: "This matter, Mr. Lin will report it to you." ”
Lin Jiansheng took two steps forward, his expression was gloomy and anxious, and he also said with a little guilt: "Miss, I'm sorry." ”
