Chapter 1039: My Life Is More Valuable Than Yours!
Dubai tyrant Zayed, using investment as a stepping stone, asked to be friends with Qiao Zhi, which seems incredible, but it happened so real.
For Zayed, he has a lot of wealth and can buy a lot of things with money.
Therefore, in his world, many things have to be measured by wealth, such as he thinks that friendship can also be bought with money.
Opening a restaurant in Dubai is not very expensive for Zayed, estimated to be in the millions.
A few million is like a few hundred dollars for a normal person.
However, it is not that a rich person does not care about money, but that he thinks that you are worth spending on himself, so he will spend a lot of money.
Qiao Zhi smiled at Zayed, "Thank you for your kindness, but I can't accept this gift." ”
"Why?" Zayed thought it was strange to open a restaurant for him for free, which was something that many people could not ask for, "Do you have any other requirements, I can accommodate you." ”
"If we get along as friends, we will not be able to accept your gifts. Qiao Zhi patiently explained, "The definition of friends by Chinese people is that there is no interest in exchange. If money is involved, the relationship between friends will go sour. ”
Zayed had a look of admiration in his eyes, "What do you mean, I understand, you want to treat me as a real brother, so you don't want the money I gave you?"
Qiao Zhi said with a smile: "Huaxia calls the best friendship a bosom friend, Boya is good at playing, and Zhong Ziqi is good at appreciating." This is where the word bosom friend comes from. I'm good at cooking, you're good at tasting, so you're my bosom friend. ”
Zayed laughed, "Would you like to be a bosom friend with me? ”
Zayed has a good impression of Qiao Zhi, many of the people around him come for him money, and over time, he is also used to using money to deal with interpersonal relationships.
Qiao Zhi rejected himself cleanly, which made Zayed look at Qiao Zhi differently.
Of course, Qiao Zhi will not let Zayed invest in a restaurant in Dubai, he and Zayed are friends, not to that extent, although Qiao Zhi is very thick-skinned, but he is not enough to do such a substandard thing.
Secondly, Qiao Zhi didn't know if Zayed had invested in himself, whether it was true or casual. If it's fake, but you take it seriously, it's just that you are looked down upon, which will damage the image of our great country.
In the end, with Qiao Zhi's current financial strength, it is still very simple to build a restaurant. He doesn't need Zayed's investment, with Zayed's economic strength, he must also be a powerful person in Dubai, if Zayed can introduce himself to some resources and avoid detours, this is enough.
Qiao Zhi did not accept Avril's recruitment to become an agent of the Wallis family, nor would he accept Zayed's kindness to invest.
Although Qiao Zhi is a little picky, he earns every penny with his waist up, even if he occasionally engages in some intrigues, but he pays attention to a clear conscience in morality.
Zayed took the initiative to approach Qiao Zhi, hugged him hard, and slapped him twice on the back, "Friend." ”
Qiao Zhi also slapped Zayed twice and said with a smile: "Well, friend!"
Seeing Zayed away, He Xia left Qiao Zhi and said sincerely: "Thank you for your help, if it weren't for you, next week's menu would not have been settled." The innovative dishes you made today have been well received by the kitchen and Chen Renyi, and I believe that after the launch, it will definitely be welcomed by foreign guests. Please give me more guidance in the future!"
Qiao Zhi smiled modestly: "Guidance can't be talked about! Talking and exchanging ideas with everyone is also a kind of tempering for me." ”
He Xia took out a card from the drawer and said with a smile: "This room was reserved for Sun Guochu before, and he has now resigned, so the room will be vacated, I will leave this room to you in front of and backward, and it is better for you to leave this room in the future, and you can live in the State Guesthouse when you go back and forth to Yanjing in the future, and you are also a member and a member of us." ”
Qiao Zhi didn't expect this good thing, so he took care of his subordinates and said with a smile: "Thank you Mr. He for taking care of it." ”
"Brother, don't you see the outside, from now on, we are a team, a family that loves each other. ”
He Xia saw Qiao Zhi accept the room card, and his heart was reassured, Qiao Zhi would live in the State Guesthouse in the future, and it would be too easy to find him.
It's not that Qiao Zhi needs to cook anything, but with a great master of Qiao Zhi's level, he only needs to play a leading role in the back kitchen.
After Sun Jin left, although Wang Shimao took over his position, he could not completely replace Sun Jin's value, especially in higher-level planning, Wang Shimao still lacked spirituality, so he had to let Chen Renyi take care of Wang Shimao.
Although Qiao Zhi is young, he has already proved with his own strength that he is fully qualified to replace Sun Jin, and even has a pioneering and innovative spirit than Sun Jin.
It's a pity that he knows that it is unlikely that he wants Qiao Zhi to stay and work in the State Guesthouse like Sun Jin, after all, Qiao Zhi is already a successful entrepreneur, so he can only settle for the next best thing, as a consultant, with the help of Qiao Zhi's wisdom and attainments, it can be described as well-intentioned.
Of course, Qiao Zhi knew He Xia's intentions, he admired He Xia very much, this is a manager with a vengeful mind, and more importantly, his style of acting flows with an admirable feeling.
Nowadays, patriotism is the main theme, and many people say that they are patriotic, but they rarely let patriotism be integrated into their bone marrow.
Although he doesn't get along much with He Xia, he can feel that He Xia is a patriotic person with feelings, because he handles everything and thinks about the interests of the country.
It has something to do with his profession and the environment in which he grew up.
He Xia arranged for his female assistant to take Qiao Zhi to the staff building, and I have to say that the young lady of the State Guesthouse is superior in appearance and figure.
There is no way, the state guesthouse represents the image of the country, and it is impossible to let those foreign friends come to visit, and they feel that hundreds of waiters with good temperament and image in a big country cannot be selected.
The female assistant took Qiao Zhi to the room and said, "Consultant Qiao, this is your room, the things in it are all brand new, there are other things you need, you can call the front desk at any time." ”
Qiao Zhi sensed He Xia's sincerity in wanting to keep him, and smiled with the female assistant: "Thank you for reminding me, I'm a more casual person, and if there is a room to accommodate me, that's enough." ”
The female assistant's walkie-talkie rang, and she nodded at Qiao Zhi, "I still have some business, you rest in the room for a while, and I'll go over and deal with it." ”
Qiao Zhi took a turn in the room, the room of the state guesthouse should be a unified standard, their accommodation standards should be the same as other foreign guests, in addition to the living room, there is a separate study and office area, there are some magazines on the shelves, Qiao Zhi found two food magazines, but there are some surprises, secretly this is the service in the details, in the tidying up of this room, must have done a special understanding of the residents, so I chose the relevant books in the area that the guests are more concerned about.
Qiao Zhi flipped through two pages casually, and found Xu Qian's photo in it, secretly thinking that Lao Xu is mixing well now, and he is on the core magazines of the industry.
However, after taking a closer look at the content of this report, it is all a patchwork article from the Internet, obviously the person who wrote this article did not interview Xu Qian personally, which is why many core journals are lonely now, the channel is changed, and the content is not deep enough, so it is easy to be eliminated.
Pulled out the room card, took a turn in the state guesthouse, you can see all kinds of skin everywhere, all kinds of faces, Qiao Zhi can't help but sigh secretly, now the Chinese national strength is strong, there is the meaning of all countries coming to the court, in this state guesthouse feeling is particularly strong.
Qiao Zhi called Tang Qi and told him that his affairs at the State Guesthouse had ended, and in addition, he had to go to the hotel where he stayed before and put his luggage at the State Guesthouse.
Tang Qi was slightly stunned, and said with a smile: "Old Qiao, you live in Diaoyutai, it seems that He Xia really recognizes you." ”
Qiao Zhi smiled: "Is this still important?"
Tang Qi said angrily: "There are so many people in our Huaxia Cuisine Association who have won the title of national chef, how many of them are qualified to enter the state guesthouse? Although Sun Jin has been cultivating Sun Shichao, Sun Shichao only occasionally participates in the preparation of state banquet dishes, and is not qualified to stay in the state guesthouse. ”
Qiao Zhi laughed at himself: "It turns out that there are so many exquisite!"
Tang Qi knew that Qiao Zhi was not deliberately pretending to be stupid, "You are less than thirty years old, and you entered the State Guesthouse as a consultant, and this future is really limitless in the future, Ma Guolin, the vice president of our association, he was also hired as a consultant like you, but at that time he was already in his early forties, alas, the matter of you living in the State Guesthouse will soon become a hot topic in the industry." ”
Qiao Zhi was stunned, "Can you help me hide it?" I don't want to make such a big formation." ”
Tang Qi laughed, "Everyone else wants to be famous, but it's good that you have successfully become famous, but you are afraid of being known." ”
Qiao Zhi smiled bitterly: "Alas, I really don't want to be famous, what's so good about being famous, the gun shot the first bird, the sky fell, and I was so tall that I was tall." ”
Tang Qi said helplessly: "That is, I am familiar with you, if you change to someone else, I will definitely feel that you are deliberately pretending to beep." You are now eligible to live in a state guesthouse, which has fully proven your strength. This is more valuable than the false name of the president of the Young Chefs Association. ”
Qiao Zhi chatted with Tang Qi for a while, took a taxi, returned to the hotel where he stayed before, and the luggage was not particularly much, so it took more than ten minutes to sort it out, and then took a taxi to the State Guesthouse to put down the luggage.
Finally had time to rest, a strange phone call came in again, and after Qiao Zhi connected, he found that it was Avril calling.
"In three days, my people will arrive in Huaxia and take you to Silver Fox Island, which is the first model island built by the island company, so we need to come forward and determine the relevant plan. ”
"Okay, security, how prepared are you?"
"Don't worry, my life is worth more than yours. ”
