Chapter 268: It's a Good Opportunity
Kyushu hot pot can be said to be a fusion of the essence of Kyushu cuisine, and no matter what kind of person you are, you can find something that suits your taste. Most importantly, it's convenient, quick and easy to cook. As long as the base is good, no matter what kind of ingredients you have, you can cook a delicious flavor that will make you want to swallow your tongue.
Zhou Yaya's family opened a hot pot restaurant. This means that her family's hot pot base recipe is at least acceptable to most people.
"How does it taste" Gao Xiang asked excitedly, and looked at her hesitantly after a while, "Many foreigners can't eat spicy food, do you have clear soup at home?"
Zhou Yaya nodded naturally: "You can make a mandarin duck pot." ”
Gao Xiang thought about it for a while, and then understood. Hot pot is so delicious that you can't refuse anything, but some people can't eat spicy by nature, if such a guest comes to your store, even if your red soup is delicious, people can't eat it As early as many years ago, someone made a mandarin duck pot. In such a situation, if you don't have mandarin duck pots in other people's stores, this business can still be done
Gao Xiang and the others were immediately relieved.
That night, the hotel manager heard that Gao Xiang and the three of them were carrying several large bags of ingredients, and booked two tables in the lobby for them, and their facial features were all twisted: "What are you booking two tables for?" There are too many places to invite people to eat.
I haven't heard of anyone inviting a dozen people directly.
However, Song Wan and they did it.
The manager who heard the ins and outs: "Okay, I'll go and book it for you right away." Then he turned and walked away.
He never knew that an investor like Cruise, who is also very popular in Hollywood, would have such a cheeky time. When people invite you, they can also say that they want to curry favor with you, an investor, a director and a screenwriter, and invite your friends
But he didn't dare say more.
Song Wan and Gao Xiang looked at each other and couldn't help laughing. When they first heard Aini's request, they were a little confused, but out of the idea of making connections, they agreed without hesitation
Not to mention anything else, such as Ani Smith, a well-known and powerful person in the industry, their friends will be ordinary people, and Cruise's friends don't need to think about it, at least they can talk about investment.
It was for such a secret purpose that they not only did not shirk the "excessive" demands of Aini and others, but felt quite happy.
Gao Xiang felt that Aini's approach was probably to compensate for what happened to Song Wan before, so she was introduced to her connections. Although they didn't say it, they also knew the importance of it, and they didn't dare to be perfunctory.
After receiving Aini's call, Gao Xiang and the others took a car directly to Chinatown to buy authentic Kyushu ingredients, and picked them from the morning to the present, at least to ensure the original taste of tonight's hot pot feast.
Gao Xiang came to the idle stove with a familiar car: "Yaya, you go to the side to season and fry the hot pot base." Then he looked at Song Wan: "You, clean up the ingredients"
No one knows when Aini and the others will come, of course they have to hurry up, Song Wan's superb knife work must not be wasted.
While the three of them were busy, they didn't notice that a bad old man with a scrimped beard had entered the kitchen.
The chef of the kitchen was about to get people out when he found his manager behind him.
The manager shook his head, and the chef understood, and immediately turned to his own business.
"Who is Song Wan that Smith is talking about" The old man didn't care at all whether his dress was out of step with the style of this hotel, which even if it was a kitchen, which looked high-end and atmospheric, and walked quite happily in the direction of the chefs' cooking.
Some of the cooks and apprentices frowned when they saw him, and he didn't care about the eyes of others as if he hadn't seen them.
It's as calm as walking in the back garden of your own home.
Gao Xiang mixed several cold dishes, and when he was about to fry the rice cakes, he inadvertently looked up and saw the old man and the manager. But her eyes fell on the old man from the beginning, and her heart suddenly sank, he was a character.
But unexpectedly, Gao Xiang had no impression of him.
She thought about it, but was ready to step forward to say hello. But the old man who noticed her raised his hand to stop her.
The old man had already learned from the manager who was the purpose of his trip.
He walked to the stove where Song Wan was with a clear goal, and watched her with a focused expression, and she handled an ingredient neatly, and her originally foggy and cloudy eyes burst into blazing heat.
Gao Xiang was startled by his eyes.
Although the manager didn't have the opportunity to taste Gao Xiang's dishes last time, he got the video of Gao Xiang's cooking, and he also tasted the dishes made by the hotel's chef after learning, and the manager had a good impression of Gao Xiang, even for the sake of the hotel, in order to dig out one or two more delicious dishes from Gao Xiang's hands, he would not let Gao Xiang offend the old gentleman, so that a good opportunity slipped away in vain.
He carefully pulled Gao Xiang aside, his voice was small, but his tone could not hide his excitement: "This old gentleman is a guest of Director Smith, and he is very curious about Miss Wan. It's an opportunity."
Gao Xiang was stunned, Smith's guest, it was probably a director Considering the old gentleman's age and his beard, it didn't seem strange that she didn't know him.
"I see, thank you manager. Gao Xiang thanked him appreciatively.
The manager waved his hand again and again, as if it was nothing more than a trivial matter for him at this time. But Gao Xiang knew what he really wanted: "The dishes we made today can all be sold in the hotel after studying." ”
The manager looked happy.
But Gao Xiang also had to remind: "Our main dish today is hot pot, you'd better not learn it, because you have many unique secret recipes and unique cooking techniques. ”
The manager was a little disappointed: "Can't you give us the secret recipe for hot pot, I mean, sell"
Although he had never been to Kyushu, he also knew that many dishes would generally become non-sale items if they were involved with secret recipes. But he still wanted to fight for it.
"No, because the hot pot made today is for Yaya's family to open a store, and it can't be sold to you. Gao Xiang explained.
The manager became more and more disappointed, but he could also understand: "Then Miss Gao, you can make another dish" He was worried that Gao Xiang would misunderstand him and hurriedly explained, "We will pay for it." ”
Gao Xiang thought for a moment and nodded.
Just as the two were talking, the old man had already come to Song Wan, and there was a stove between the two.
The old man's gaze was so hot that Song Wan couldn't ignore it at all, so she looked up helplessly, just in time to meet the old man's blingbling eyes.
Song Wan: ""
No one invited him out.
"Sir, do you need any help?" Song Wan asked suspiciously.
The old gentleman glanced up at her and waved his hand: "Go on"
Song Wan, who inexplicably felt that her aura was suppressed: "Okay, you can do it yourself." ”
After that, she buried herself in her head and continued her vegetable cutting business.
Although she was confused about the old gentleman's existence, she didn't have time to waste it on unrelated people. He wants to see her chopping vegetables, then look at the knife work, and it is not a unique cheat that will be seen at a glance, even if he knows how to do it, if he doesn't practice, the knife work is impossible to improve.
Click, click
A series of musical-like chopping sounds echoed in the kitchen.
After a while, Song Wan began to cut the meat.
Although it was silent, the meat slices that were cut out like cicada wings at the end couldn't help but amaze the only audience member of the scene.
The old gentleman didn't feel bored, and kept staring intently at Song Wan chopping vegetables, and he was reluctant to let go of a single action.
Rao is as calm as Song Wan, and he is also hairy by the old gentleman's sight.
When all the ingredients were finally processed, Song Wan couldn't help but think, I don't have to look at it now, people should always go
outcome
"Your name is Song Wan, are you willing to act in my movie" The old gentleman looked at the various colors of meat neatly and beautifully placed on the plate, and asked casually.
Song Wan opened her mouth wide in astonishment, and couldn't help but look at Gao Xiang, who came behind the old gentleman at some point.
Gao Xiang nodded repeatedly.
She thought about it for a long time just now, and finally recognized who this old gentleman was, and his movie was a great opportunity, even if he played a supporting role in it, it was enough for many big-name movie stars to compete for the head. Now that the old gentleman personally invited, even if he just said it casually, they would have to smash this matter down, and they couldn't let the old gentleman have a chance to regret it.
Song Wan was stunned again. But out of trust in Gao Xiang, she still nodded: "Of course I do." ”
The old gentleman didn't seem to notice Song Wan's actions just now, and nodded indifferently: "I think the beef is cut a little less, and it will definitely not be enough to eat later." Cut a little more. ”
Song Wan looked at the four plates of cut beef and blinked, this is not much
Gao Xiang hurriedly winked at Song Wan and signaled: Cut as much as he wanted
Song Wan: "Can you still have a little discipline?"
She looked at the manager, and was about to say that the ingredients they had bought had been processed, and if they wanted to cut them again, they had to ask the manager for help.
Fortunately, beef is very common in the country, so it is not impossible to find it.
but
Song Wan hesitated: "Dare to ask the old man, you have a high birthday this year"
The old gentleman didn't seem to expect Song Wan to suddenly ask this question, and subconsciously replied, "Seventy-two." ”
After hearing this, Song Wan quickly stopped the manager's actions and said, "Old man, you should already have high blood pressure at your age, you can't eat more beef, please eat clear soup when you eat hot pot later, it is good for your body." ”
You must know that for many hot pot lovers, clear soup hot pot is tasteless and does not whet your appetite at all. In order to attract customers, many restaurants put a lot more effort into the clear soup than in the red soup. The base of the clear soup pot also consumes much more ingredients than the red soup and the degree of cherishing.
Nutritious and delicious.
But sometimes, the older you get, the more rebellious you become, and the rebellion that should have passed in adolescence may come back again when you are seventy or eighty years old.
For example, when the old gentleman heard Song Wan's words, his eyebrows immediately wrinkled.
As far as Gao Xiang and the manager know, the old gentleman has a bad temper. The two immediately raised their hearts for Song Wan, and they were very worried that she would offend the old gentleman and lose this hard-won opportunity.
