Megumi Kitaoka returned to the room, and Qiao Zhi had been talking to him earnestly in his mind.

Growing up, my father and master taught me that if you want to be a good chef, you must have no distractions and treat the cooking as the most important and precious thing.

Qiao Zhi asked Megumi Kitaoka to let go of her obsession with the kitchen, learn to enjoy life, and find her understanding of the kitchen from the warmth and coldness of people.

Master can't be wrong!

It's yourself who is wrong!

Megumi Kitaoka sighed softly, she had been so obsessed with the kitchen that she had neglected the essence of food.

Exquisite skills, high-end ingredients, that is the pale external stimulation, and the most important thing is to pay attention to the state of the customer.

What mood do diners take to taste the food?

If you are depressed, your mood is full of grief and depression, and even the best food will taste like chewing wax.

Qiao Zhi didn't expect that his overly elevated words set off a stormy reflection in Megumi Kitaoka's heart.

Megumi Kitaoka had another epiphany......

Faintly touched the edge of a realm breakthrough.

An iron door appeared in her heart, slowly opened, revealing a gap, and from inside shot out a piercing dim light!

Master taught himself the way of cooking without reservation!

The teacher's kindness is too heavy, and it is difficult to repay it in this life!

The next day, Qiao Zhi and others came to Kyoto Imperial University, although the name of this university is very domineering, but it ranks fifth among many universities in Kyoto, and the university recruits more international students, among which Chinese people account for a large proportion of international students.

Choosing to let Qiao help the owner contract the canteen, the school took into account the factors of international students.

The university is connected with Qiao Zhi and others is a Chinese named Yi Jingnan, about forty years old, dressed in formal clothes, and about 1.75 meters tall.

Yi Jingnan took a group of people to visit the campus, the area of the school is not large, but the software and hardware facilities are good.

After the visit, a signing ceremony was held in the school's auditorium, Qiao Zhi and the school's principal Michio Yamada sat in the middle, signed six contracts, and after the ceremony, the two were interviewed by reporters.

After raising his hand, the reporter from the "Kyoto Daily" was qualified to ask questions, "President Yamada, Kyoto Imperial University's choice of a Chinese catering company has attracted a lot of discussions, and many people think that the school is doing this to attract Chinese students, what is your explanation?"

The questions are sharp and very difficult to answer.

Michio Yamada held the glasses frame on the bridge of his nose, "Qiao Gang Leader is a very well-known catering company in China, and we will cooperate with them, of course, we will consider whether we can use this to expand the popularity and influence of our school in China." And Qiao Gangster chose us in the hope of finding a suitable soil for their development. So, it's a win-win situation for both the school and the business!"

Michio Yamada's answer was very clever, and Qiao Zhi was not only impressed by him.

A reporter from the "Island Country Economic Times" took the microphone and asked, "Mr. Qiao, I have done a survey on your company, and you accept guests in Huaxia in the form of reservations, and when you arrive in the island country, will you still adhere to this operation model?"

Qiao Zhi bowed slightly, "After Qiao Gang comes to the island country, he will change many places according to the local customs, and we will develop food that can be loved by local customers according to the preferences of local customers, and our reservation model will not change, which is also to save costs and provide customers with a better dining environment." ”

The reporter asked reluctantly

"The reservation system is based on a stable enough customer flow, are you sure there will be enough customers?"

Qiao Zhi smiled faintly: "I think it is more reliable to speak with facts, I suggest that you wait for the opening of the business, carefully observe our operation, I believe you can get an accurate answer." ”

A reporter from the Mainichi Shimbun stood up and asked, "Not long ago, your disciple Megumi Kitaoka publicly said at the World Culinary Competition that he would abandon island cuisine and choose Chinese cuisine, how do you see the difference between the cuisines of the two countries?"

Finally waiting for this fatal question!

Qiao Zhi stared at the reporter for a few seconds, this guy had thinning hair, sunken eyes, and looked a little familiar, and he deeply doubted whether he had made a cameo appearance in a small movie.

"Megumi Kitaoka used to be the head chef of the Imperial Family Restaurant in the island country, and in the future, she will be the head chef of the Imperial University branch of Qiaobang's main cafeteria. There is definitely a difference between island cuisine and Chinese cuisine, but I think it has nothing to do with the food itself, but with the customers who taste it. After entering the island country, the main canteen of the Qiao Gang must respect the eating habits of the local customers in the island country and absorb the advantages of the cuisine from the island country, otherwise it will be unsuitable and unsustainable. Megumi Kitaoka has the ability to integrate the food cultures of the two countries, and I am sure she will live up to expectations!"

Qiao Zhi replied calmly.

Michio Yamada and Qiao Zhi successively accepted many questions from reporters, and although the questions were tricky, both of them solved all the problems skillfully.

Michio Yamada has a deeper understanding of Qiao Zhi, this person looks young, but he thinks carefully about the problem and answers the questions extremely sophisticated, no wonder he has a net worth of more than 100 million at a young age.

At the end of the press conference, Mei Ling breathed a sigh of relief, she had already written the content of the meeting and sent it to her colleagues in Yunhai, and in an hour or two, the news would be released in various domestic media.

With the help of this wave of public opinion, the influence of Qiao's gang leader has increased a lot.

After Qiao Zhi shook hands with Michio Yamada, the two stepped down from the stage, Mei Ling greeted him with a smile, and found that Qiao Zhi was sweating a lot, and said with a smile: "It seems that you will also be nervous!"

"The main reason is that the language is not clear, for fear that the English is not authentic enough, and the translation will misinterpret it, causing unnecessary trouble. Qiao Zhi answered reporters' questions in English throughout the whole process, showing good basic language skills.

This came as a surprise to the reporters of the island countries!

"Don't worry, your performance just now was perfect, and you subdued a group of little fan girls!" Mei Ling affirmed.

Partnering with Qiao Zhi, the more I think about it, the more I think it is a wise move.

Qiao Zhi shrugged his shoulders and smiled: "Don't pour me ecstasy soup, I'm very sober." Even though I didn't show any flaws in answering the questions just now, those reporters would definitely take them out of context and attack me. ”

"Are you scared?" asked Mei Ling.

"What am I afraid of?" Qiao Zhi smiled faintly, "The wolf is really here, it should be the sheep and the lying child who is afraid!"

"By the way, are you free tomorrow?" Mei Ling asked suddenly.

"Yes!" Qiao Zhi looked at Mei Ling strangely.

"Then remember to free up dinner time for me tomorrow, and I'll take you to meet a friend. Mei Ling said with a smile.

"Friend...... Male or female?" Qiao Zhi said with emotion, "Sister Mei, I admire your connections very much, you have friends all over the world, and you can eat well wherever you go." ”

"I won't tell you for the time being!" Mei Ling's lips moved, and she didn't elaborate.

Qiao Zhi said: "Wait a minute, can you arrange a car." ”

Mei Ling was curious: "Is there something wrong with you?"

Qiao Zhi bowed slightly, "I plan to accompany Ah Hui back home."

！”

Mei Ling was stunned for a moment, and said with emotion: "In order to let Ah Hui die for you, you can be described as well-intentioned. ”

Qiao Zhi glared at Mei Ling, "Can you not speak so badly? What do you mean by selling your life? I accepted Ah Hui as an apprentice and taught her the profound Chinese cooking skills, and she gave me a few days of work, is it too much?"

Mei Ling smiled: "It's not too much, you know it." However, Ah Hui is indeed a good girl, and it is a good thing for you to be able to keep her. ”

Mei Ling borrowed a car from Mr. Gu, Qiao Zhi and Beigang Hui made an appointment in advance, and the two came to Beigang's house in a car. Judging from the appearance, Kitaoka's house did not look dilapidated or poor, and when the doorbell rang, Megumi Kitaoka's stepmother came over and opened the door, and the moment she saw Megumi Kitaoka, she was a little surprised and a little excited, "Megumi, you're back!"

Megumi Kitaoka bowed slightly, although her stepmother had always treated her like a tool to make money, but the moment she saw her tears, the previous unhappiness disappeared.

"Mom, I'm back!" Megumi Kitaoka handed the gift she had prepared in advance to her stepmother.

The stepmother wiped the corners of her eyes, "It's good to come back, and bring so many gifts." ”

Megumi Kitaoka introduced: "I bought nutrition for my father, a dress for you, and a mobile phone for my brother. ”

The stepmother smiled and looked at Qiao Zhi, "This is ......"

Megumi Kitaoka introduced: "He is my master Qiao Zhi. The previous monthly subsidy was given to you by Mr. Gu on his behalf. ”

"Ah, Qiao Zhi, Mr. Gu said, it is your senior brother who supports us, his name is Zhou Chong!" said the stepmother in surprise.

"My master is relatively low-key, so he borrowed the name of Zhou Chong to help us. Megumi Kitaoka explained.

Qiao Zhi didn't know what Megumi Kitaoka and his stepmother were saying in the island Chinese.

If he heard Megumi Kitaoka say that his way of helping himself was relatively low-key, he would definitely have mixed feelings.

Do good deeds and leave other people's names, and then explain the truth yourself......

This is a horse that operates the sauna!

Is there such a low-key person......

The stepmother bowed slightly, "I see, hurry up and invite your master in." ”

Qiao Zhi walked into the house, although it was a little simpler, but the house was clean and tidy.

The stepmother poured Qiao Zhi a cup of tea, and whispered to Megumi Kitaoka: "Your father is resting, so I'll go and call him." ”

"No, let him rest for a while. Megumi Kitaoka hurriedly stopped.

Half an hour later, Megumi Kitaoka's father woke up and heard that Megumi had returned, dressed and in a wheelchair, from the bedroom to the living room.

"Ah Hui, you're finally home. Father said with red eyes.

Megumi Kitaoka knelt down for his father, raised his bow, and choked up, "I'm sorry, father, I'm so unfilial." ”

The father sighed, "Ah Hui, you are a good boy. If you can come back, I will be relieved, we are a family, we are not afraid of contradictions, the key is to resolve differences. ”

Megumi Kitaoka introduced to his father: "This is my master Qiao Zhi!"

Father and Qiao Zhi nodded, and said in non-standard English: "I just heard your stepmother say that it is Mr. Qiao who has been supporting our family! Thank you! You are the benefactor of our Beigang family." ”

Seeing that Mr. Kitaoka's father sincerely thanked him, Qiao Zhi was in a good mood.

In this way, this cheap female apprentice can be regarded as completely subdued by herself!

He said modestly: "Ah Hui is my apprentice, and it is my duty to help her." ”
