447 champions also have a shelf life
In Boston, USA, it is not the first time that Lao Liu has come over. The last time I came over, it was not only a huge success, but there are also some things that have to be said.
This time, Xiao Miaomiao didn't have much interest. In fact, I still think about the little animals at home, and I think that playing happily with the little animals is the most interesting.
"I still have to congratulate you, and hopefully in tomorrow's final, you can also qualify. After seeing Raymond, Liu Wenrui said with a smile.
"Boss, I always have a feeling that I'm cheating. Raymond shrugged his shoulders.
"Our coffee beans are fantastic, and now that you've brought the spring water with you, I really can't see any reason why I can't qualify. ”
"I can't be so proud, in fact, there are still a lot of people who are very good. The water and beans they use are also very particular. Liu Wenrui said.
"Actually, what I'm most worried about is not the quality of the coffee, but whether the concept you explain can be accepted by the judges. With different moods, the feelings are different when you taste coffee. ”
"Don't worry, when you're in China, you practice three times a day. The audience is the customers who come to the store to drink coffee, and Raymond does a good job in terms of the fluency of the explanation and the control of time. Sun Baofeng said with a smile.
"Now he is a big star in our shop, and he is also the leading barista in the provincial capital. I think you don't have to worry about that, just wait for him to bring home the trophy. ”
"Don't mess around here, hurry up and eat first. Then you wash and sleep, and you have jet lag. You see that my eldest niece is sleepy, and she can't open her big eyes. ”
Lao Liu shook his head helplessly, "She's not sleepy, it's boring." At home, I was very happy to run around and play with the animals. ”
"Dad, Miao Miao is very well-behaved. ”
The little guy is a little unhappy, he is very well-behaved, not like the old man said.
"Haha, Miao Miao is the most well-behaved, the second uncle will take you to eat lobster. Sun Baofeng said happily.
Boston is most famous for lobsters, and there are many lobster restaurants here, so I just picked a big guy and walked in.
Sure enough, Xiao Miaomiao, just like Lao Liu said, is just boring now and has no energy, and after the lobster is served, this little guy will be a little too busy to rhythm.
"You're almost done, aren't you?" Four people were also brought from the country. They are all Raymond's little apprentices, and they can be regarded as baristas trained by ourselves. Sun Baofeng said.
"This time I can take them out to see the world, it's a rare opportunity. After watching the selection competition in the United States, I can still watch the domestic selection competition next year. ”
"How's the talent?" asked Liu Wenrui.
"Hey...... , how to say this, we have to continue to work hard. I haven't touched it before, and now it's all starting from scratch. Sun Baofeng said.
"But it's also talented, even if you don't win the championship in the future, it's still okay to be a barista in our store. Now the store is semi-open, and when the game is over, they have to hurry back. ”
Liu Wenrui nodded, and it was very clear to hear Sun Baofeng say this. The four people brought in were of a greater nature of propaganda. Otherwise, he will definitely have key recommended characters, and by the way, he will also let himself see.
However, this matter really can't be rushed, the training of baristas is a systematic training, and it is also a training of multi-faceted talents.
And this industry is also easy to get in and hard to get out. Anyway, it's those fixed processes, and anyone who tries a few more times can get it done. But the difference between how well the coffee you brew tastes can be huge.
Now with such propaganda, it can play a more or less propaganda role in China. It's a fake way to just say that you don't practice, but here you are very serious about training baristas.
"By the way, there's one more thing. I think it's also necessary to hire some people for my washing plant. Priority will be given to recruiting in China, and in the future, we will specialize in cultivating coffee roasting, tasting, and staff in this area. Liu Wenrui continued.
"In terms of salary, it won't be very high, and when they leave the apprenticeship, they will give them a work contract for a regular job. There are still a lot of people working in this field among the local people in Kenya, and it will be a supplement to our café in the future. ”
Sun Baofeng nodded, "I think it's no problem, young people still like to go outside to have a look." Sasha, why are there so few words today? It's so tiring to fly. ”
"I'm not tired, I'm just a little embarrassed. Wang Shasha said with a smile.
"Haha, what's embarrassing. You're a family, and you've got to walk through the door. Sun Baofeng said with a smile.
"But you also need to work hard, hurry up and give Miao Miao a younger brother and sister to play. You can also find something for the little one to do, or you won't be able to run with those animals all day long. ”
"Second uncle, what are your younger brothers and sisters?" asked Xiao Miaomiao, who was eating happily on the big lobster, curiously.
"Just let your sister Sasha give you another baby, and you can take care of it. Sun Baofeng said with a smile.
Hearing this, the little guy's eyes were shining, and he looked directly at Wang Shasha, "Sister Sasha, when will you give birth?"
Taking care of the baby is also a big hobby of Miao Miao. I've taken care of a lot, and now there's an old gray, and it's not interesting to take care of it.
Wang Shasha is so anxious, this little guy is really going to make trouble, and it can't be said that he was born.
"Miao Miao, don't worry, dad works hard. Lao Liu comforted the little guy and brought a big scallop to the little guy.
"Daddy, will you have a baby too?" asked the little one curiously.
It's amused to a table of people, and this knowledge hasn't been popularized to her, that's what you want.
Lao Liu explained in a foolish way, and the little guy didn't care very much. As long as you promise to give us a baby to play with soon, that's it.
"How are you getting in touch with the travel company?" asked Liu Wenrui after chatting for a while.
"I contacted a few companies, but none of them seemed to be very interested. Sun Baofeng said.
"And the airlines here also seem to be more fucked, not as easy to talk about as the domestic airlines. Let's try harder, there are so many cities here, I'm running for a month. ”
Liu Wenrui nodded, "The main reason is that I don't have any reputation there, and the problem of accommodation has not been completely solved." Don't be in too much of a hurry, it will be fine in two years. ”
This is also a very real problem, why do you say it's useless, people are looking at the actual efficacy. Now I do have a little bit of scenery on my farm, and I still guard the grassland, but there is no serious standard in terms of accommodation and food.
People from European and American countries travel a lot abroad, but many people pay attention to quality. They go out to play for real fun, and it's also very common to go on trips.
I really can't rush this matter, and when I have a reputation there in the future, many travel companies will rush to find it. It can be said that whether Sun Baofeng's tourism company can do a good job or not is the main factor here.
"Raymond, didn't the 20-year barista competition be held in Melbourne in May, why did your domestic selection competition happen so early?" asked Liu Wenrui curiously.
"It's to give future contestants more time to prepare, and the championship is also a great honor and is now taken seriously. Raymond said with a smile.
Liu Wenrui nodded, "It's still good for us, and it's one thing after we finish dealing with it." You can also take care of the café and strive to open one in the United States next year or the day after tomorrow. ”
"Third child, are you in such a hurry?" asked Sun Baofeng.
"Don't worry, how long can the championship be valid?" Liu Wenrui said with a wry smile.
"The champions of the year, people will talk about it. After next year's champion, who will focus on the last edition?"
"So after you go back, you have to train people well, at least some basic work in the future, we don't have to go outside to recruit people. If this coffee shop is opened in the future, we will have to have a certain level. ”
Sun Baofeng nodded understandingly, although what Liu Wenrui said was a bit of a red fruit, it was indeed true. All champions have a shelf life, and with the emergence of new champions, the aura of the old batch will be weakened a lot.
The title of champion is also a signboard. When people are hotly discussed, the store opened by the champion will naturally bring a round of publicity. After two years, you will be considered a champion to open a store, and you will have to let people look it up online to know who you are.
"Listening to what you say, it seems that this champion is our family. Wang Shasha said funny.
"Haha, this one is really close. Although there is no official competition yet, as long as there is not much deviation, it is our family. Liu Wenrui said confidently.
"In fact, the training of our follow-up echelon is poor, otherwise we can get one or two champions back every year. In the future, coffee beans are not only the name of Geisha, but also our coffee beans. ”
"It is estimated that when Raymond wins another championship, there will be other baristas coming to us next year to buy from us. It's good to have a beginning, but it's not so realistic for us to do it ourselves. ”
"Now I can see that no matter what kind of business you do, you can't stop cultivating talents. In the future, we have to think carefully about this aspect, and we must also select a group of people from the Kalai tribe. ”
"Otherwise, it would be too expensive to simply recruit people from China or other countries. And the people who attract investment are not sure what the level is, and they have to be trained by themselves. ”
"Cut, you're going to eat the Kaleis. Isn't the chief amazing?" Wang Sasha gave him a blank look.
"Hehe, I'm a chief, it's really amazing. Lao Liu said proudly, and by the way, he took a big bite of lobster meat.
He is still very confident in this.
