Volume 2: Chef King Contest Chapter 071 Good news!
Early the next morning, Qiao Zhi was busy in the back kitchen and received Zhong Shi's phone number.
"You're amazing! Qualified for the semi-finals with the first place in the first round. ”
"What about you?"
"I'm slightly inferior to you, only third. ”
"Congratulations!"
Zhong Shi thought for a moment, coughed, and said, "Confirm one thing with you." Isn't that pretty girl I saw in the cafeteria yesterday the cute Jessie?"
"Hey, you have good eyesight. Qiao Zhi looked at Zhong Shi in surprise.
He didn't recognize it for a while, but Zhong Shi only glanced at it, and he could accurately say the screen name of his sister-in-law.
Zhong Shi said with a smile: "I won't tell you, I have a hobby, and I have followed more than 3,000 young ladies on the short video platform. Anyone placed in front of me, I could easily recognize it. ”
"On those short video sites, the beauties are all beautified, right? There is still a difference between the real person and the video. ”
"When I reach my level, I can achieve the existence of CCTV like a demon mirror, and anyone is a vegan person with no beauty and no filter!"
Qiao Zhi almost didn't laugh, "No wonder my sister-in-law said you were obscene." ”
"Sister-in-law, you say it's the cute Jessie?" Bell Stone was suddenly jealous and wanted to explode.
"Dun'er, listen to my brother. A woman can't just look at her appearance, the more beautiful a woman is, the more likely she is to be a dominatrix. Qiao Zhi patiently comforted, "My sister-in-law is a bomb, if you fall in love with her, it is self-harm, and marrying him is suicide." I treat you as a brother and can't pit you. ”
"Phew, I think you just don't want to introduce your sister-in-law to me. ”
There was a busy sound on the other side of the phone, and Qiao Zhi was extremely surprised.
It is true that he will not introduce his sister-in-law to Zhong Shi.
The reason is very simple, introducing my sister-in-law to anyone is harming the other party.
My sister-in-law has the strange disease of androphobia, as long as a man falls into his hands, there is basically no way to live, and he will be tortured to death.
Zhong Shi almost broke his phone, Qiao Zhi is really annoying.
Zhong Shi has been the kind of self-confident character since he was a child.
Even if you eat a big fat person, you will optimistically laugh at yourself for being a dund.
But Qiao Zhi made him fully feel jealousy and envy.
The main Qiao Zhi loves to pretend to be too forced.
......
"Chef Chen, congratulations, I heard that you successfully passed the first round of selection. Do you want to send a big red envelope? ”
A group of people in the back kitchen of Huaixiang Restaurant waited for the results to be announced, and they began to coax.
"The red envelope is exempt, it's only the first round. ”
Chen Ming's face was not very good, and he glanced at Guo Yan who was mopping the floor, she didn't coax with others, and her heart was slightly sour.
Could it be that Guo Yan knows Qiao Zhi's ranking?
The gang knows the outcome of the first round for sure.
In the first round of the selection, he performed in a decent manner, so the final score was ranked 28th.
Among the 600 chefs, it is very good to be able to get this result.
However, the moment the results of the first round were announced, he felt as uncomfortable as a fly.
First place: Qiao Zhi.
If it were anyone, Chen Ming wouldn't care, why was it Qiao Zhi?
Gong Fachao saw Chen Ming walking over in a daze with a kitchen knife, snatched the kitchen knife fiercely, and scolded angrily: "Don't you know the rules?"
It is necessary to be attentive with a knife, which is one of the rules of the chef.
Because knives are not only used to chop vegetables, but also to hurt others, and if you are not focused, you can hurt both others and yourself.
Chen Ming was shocked into a cold sweat, if Gong Fachao hadn't stopped it in time, his fingers would have almost been cut open.
"Come with me to the office. Gong Fachao's eyes showed dissatisfaction, and he ordered.
Chen Ming was uneasy, Gong Fachao was very strict with himself, and he could become his apprentice, after a long time of training, so his awe of Gong Fachao had been deeply rooted in his bone marrow.
"Sit. Gong Fachao glanced at the sofa and commanded.
Chen Ming saw Gong Fachao pour himself a glass of water, and hurriedly followed, "Master, I'll come." ”
Gong Fachao handed the water to Chen Ming and said patiently: "Chen Ming, although you are not the most talented, you are definitely the hardest-working. It's very similar to me, when I am an apprentice, I have to have perseverance. ”
Chen Ming bowed his head and explained, "I'm worried about disappointing your hopes. ”
Gong Fachao said in a deep voice: "No one puts pressure on you. Don't think you can represent Huaixiang Restaurant. Huaixiang Restaurant can stand tall, not by you alone, nor by me, but by the chef for so many years, on the basis of ensuring the consistency of taste, constantly innovating. ”
Chen Ming gritted his teeth and said regretfully: "I can't compare to Qiao Zhi." ”
Gong Fachao walked up to Chen Ming, raised his hand, and slapped him on the cheek, "Stupid thing! Forget that I once told you that if you want to be a good chef, you must first be yourself?"
Chen Ming apologized embarrassedly: "I'm sorry. ”
Gong Fachao looked at Chen Ming with hatred, he had to wake up Chen Ming at this moment, otherwise he didn't know what the apprentice's soul would be distorted into.
"If you want to be a good chef, you have to constantly surpass yourself, and then you want to surpass others. Gong Fachao didn't bear to hit Chen Ming.
He was too far away from Qiao Zhi's level.
The chef industry requires talent, and Chen Ming can become the pillar of Huaixiang Restaurant through hard work, but he is definitely not qualified to become the top chef of Huaixiang Group.
Qiao Zhi may still be immature in many places now, but he has shown more potential than too many people, as long as he develops normally, he will become the top of the Huaixiang Group.
Everyone needs to have their own positioning.
If Chen Ming is not clear about his position, it is easy to go wrong on the road in the future.
Gong Fachao suddenly hesitated, whether it was right for him to let Chen Ming participate in the King Chef Championship so early.
Originally, the internal competition of the King of Chef Competition was just a test for Chen Ming, and Gong Fachao was not optimistic about whether Chen Ming could enter the finals.
But now it seems that Chen Ming should not have been allowed to participate from the beginning, because he not only lacked strength, but also had a bad mentality.
......
Huaixiang Group announced the results of the first round of the competition, and the pot exploded everywhere, especially those scattered WeChat and QQ groups, all of whom were discussing the results.
"The first place was won by an unseeded player, is there something super shady?"
"The first place is in the jury of Shen Bowu, who is recognized as selfless. ”
"Where did Qiao Zhi come from, and who brought out the apprentice? ”
It is said that Huaixiang Group couldn't tolerate him, so he relied on an idea to get a start-up fund and contract a canteen. ”
"Canteen?
"The key canteen is inexplicably on fire, and its daily turnover is stable at about 250,000. ”
"I don't believe it, I don't believe it. ”
"Definitely bragging. A canteen can make a single day turnover of 250,000, which is definitely a joke. ”
“...... Everyone quickly took a look at the official website, it seems that an announcement has been updated just now. ”
A screenshot soon appeared in the group:
"Good news:
The second canteen of Qiongjin Vocational and Technical College under our group completed a turnover of 7.02 million yuan in November, and the monthly profit reached 4.3 million yuan, setting a number of records for the group.
I hope that other departments within the group will learn from this and learn more.
Group General Manager's Office. ”
A very short announcement of good news, which came quietly, but it was full of gold.
Huaixiang Group has a number of stores open every month, but very few will issue commendation orders in the form of the group's general manager's office.
Moreover, the performance of the second canteen is eye-catching, and many stores have completed the task of half a year in one month.
The point is that this is a cafeteria.
The location of the canteen is certainly not as good as that of those located in busy areas or large shopping malls, but it brings such a huge profit.
Especially those people in the chain strategic investment department, seeing this data, I am afraid that they are in the mood to jump into the river.
After a lot of hard work, various arguments about the rationality of the construction address of the new store were slapped in the face by the success of the second canteen.
The group fell silent instantly, and the notice on the official website slapped those doubters fiercely.
Although the turnover of the second canteen did not exceed the group's monthly business record, the investment amount was small.
The production-to-investment ratio has reached an astonishing 600%, and the previous investment of 1 million can easily complete the return on investment in one month.
With 50 percent of Huaixiang Group's restaurants now profitable, 30 percent of restaurants breaking even, and 20 percent losing money, Canteen No. 2's first month is a standout.
The old chefs in the group, no matter how famous they are, may not be able to achieve such amazing results.
After a long time, Luo Yi bubbled, "I am one of the judges who participated in the selection of Qiao Zhi this time. Not only is he solid in his fundamentals, but he is also full of creativity. There is a video recording of the whole process of our selection, and I believe that this video will be uploaded to your email soon. When the time comes, everyone will know that there is a reason for the results we give. ”
Luo Yi's words silenced the doubters in the group completely.
Tang Long sent a private poke window from the mobile phone interface, "Why do you say something like that in the group, there is no need to cause unnecessary trouble." ”
Luo Yi frowned, "You're just too cautious, I'm willing to take responsibility for anything I say." ”
Tang Long sent a smiling expression, "I'm kind enough to remind you." There is no need to offend so many people for Qiao Zhi. ”
Luo Yi no longer bothered Tang Long.
Her idea was very simple, since Qiao Zhi had proved herself with food, she should stand up and say something for Qiao Zhi.
In less than half an hour, the official website refreshed the main menu.
One of them is "Eggplant with Meat Foam", and the corresponding video teaching process is attached.
Sure enough, as Luo Yi guessed, this eggplant with meat foam was perfect, and it successfully passed the audit of several consultant national chefs.
"Qiao Zhi's cooking process during the selection competition was recorded as a teaching video. ”
"What virtue does he have? ”
This kind of recommended dish video is generally provided by the group's consultants, and the cooks are all national chef-level masters.
For a young man like Qiao Zhi, it is unprecedented for him to develop a new dish that can be promoted to all the chefs in the group.
Qiao Zhi didn't know that his fame had already spread throughout the Huaixiang Group, and even to the ears of future competitors.
