Chapter 408: The Prophet's Advantage
As for whether Zhang Honglin can be dug up, of course Zhou Anxin is not completely sure, and he is not any relative in his family, he and Zhang Honglin still don't know each other in this life, and they haven't contacted it now, how can they be completely sure?
But he felt hopeful.
Because he remembered that Zhang Honglin once said in a chat that he didn't know the head chef before, and he came to work at the Regent Hotel and applied for it himself.
Before that, he worked at another restaurant in Yinma County, and then he applied for a job and changed jobs on his own.
Because he remembered this information, Zhou An thought that it was entirely possible to succeed in digging Zhang Honglin.
Because in the Regent Hotel, Zhang Honglin does not belong to the direct descendant of the head chef, nor is he a relative or friend of the hotel owner or a certain leader, simply put, he has no foundation in the Regent Hotel, and he can work there completely by his own skills.
In the previous life, when Zhou An was an apprentice at the Regent Hotel, he understood the composition of the kitchen staff.
The head chef is a Cantonese chef, and most of the chefs in the kitchen are people he brought from Guangdong Province and belong to the lineage.
For example, the first stove, the second stove, and the third stove master are all from Guangdong Province.
These people usually like to use Cantonese when they communicate with each other, and others listen to it as if they are listening to a book from heaven, and they can't understand it at all.
It's a small group with the head chef at its core.
In addition, there are some chefs in this kitchen, who belong to other cuisines, and are nominally subordinate to the head chef, but in fact, they are all responsible for several dishes of their own cuisine, and they belong to non-descendant members.
Zhou An's master in his previous life, Zhong Yifu, made seafood, which is Zhejiang cuisine.
Zhang Honglin cooks Hunan cuisine.
In addition, there is a local chef, who is mainly responsible for staff meals, and the dishes sold to the outside world are relatively small, which belongs to the Hui cuisine master.
A chef with so many cuisines in the kitchen may sound a bit miscellaneous at first glance, but it is actually determined by the grade of the Regent Hotel.
After all, the Regent Hotel is a three-star hotel, and the grade is there, and the dishes must be richer.
Cantonese cuisine, the first of the eight major cuisines, is the main dish here.
The seafood of Zhejiang cuisine, the heavy taste of Hunan cuisine, and the local taste of Hui cuisine are all complements.
These situations, Zhou An is clear.
So digging Zhang Honglin, he is a little sure.
Because Zhang Honglin's salary there is okay, his status in the kitchen is not very high, who let him have no backstage, and he is not the head chef's descendant?
Cantonese chefs are very grouped.
The reason why Tan Guang was able to apply for this hotel in the first place has a lot to do with the fact that he is from Guangdong Province, he is the head chef's hometown, and when he hears the accent, he first has three points of cordiality.
And this time he dug Zhang Honglin, which was different from when he dug Tan Guang last year.
When he poached Tan Guang last year, he only had a small and inconspicuous shop, and Tan Guang was nominally a sous chef, but in fact he was no different from an ordinary chef.
The reason why Tan Guang was poached by him was mainly because of the high salary he offered.
And now?
Fish bite sheep and wild crayfish, is already the leading restaurant in Yinma County Food Street, although the grade is still not comparable with the Regent Hotel, but the daily catering turnover, may not be much less than the Regent Hotel.
The most important thing is that he dug Zhang Honglin over this time, and he was going to let Zhang Honglin be the head chef of his new restaurant.
Napoleon once said: "A soldier who does not want to be a general is not a good soldier!"
Chefs are actually similar, chefs who don't want to be head chefs are not much different from salted fish, and chefs who are a little pursuing must have a heart to be a head chef.
Zhou An believes that Zhang Honglin must have it.
Because Zhang Honglin is old and young, his parents are alive and young, and he has two children, and his life is under a lot of pressure! Under such life pressure, he doesn't want to be promoted to another level and earn more?
Isn't it because of ideals to work as a chef in another country and work hard in another country? Is it because of ideals?
What he is not sure about now is: Is Zhang Honglin's wife following Zhang Honglin now?
In the previous life, when he went to the Regent Hotel as an apprentice, Zhang Honglin's wife was already there, responsible for giving Zhang Honglin a lotus, and the couple went to work together every day, got off work together, and lived in the same room at night.
If Zhang Honglin's wife is also here now, then his strategy of digging Zhang Honglin may have to be adjusted.
The effect of the pillow wind, he had just learned.
Isn't Tan Guang's resignation this time because of the pillow wind?
In order to find out Zhang Honglin's current situation preliminarily, at about one o'clock in the afternoon of the next day, Zhou An personally drove to the vicinity of the Regent Hotel, parked the car under the shade of a tree on the side of the road, smoked quietly, and paid attention to the exit of the Regent Hotel with his eyes intentionally or unintentionally.
He knew where the staff dormitory of this hotel was, and the location where he parked at this time was the only way to get to the staff dormitory of this hotel.
He also knew that the hotel kitchen was at noon — normally, at half past one.
He's here now, and he'll be able to see the cooks passing by in a moment.
Unless Zhang Honglin happens to be on duty at noon today, Zhang Honglin will definitely pass by this road.
Time passed slowly, Zhou An sat on the electric tricycle without hurry, playing the mobile game - Snake Eater, while waiting patiently, glancing at the exit of the hotel not far away from time to time.
Light a cigarette once in a while.
When the time came to half past one, the snake's attraction to him decreased significantly, and he began to glance over there.
Not for long.
He saw a young woman coming out of the exit, and he glanced at the other's face and chest, and then withdrew his gaze, uninterested.
A moment later, two more young men came out briskly while chatting about something.
Zhou An glanced at it again, didn't recognize it, and withdrew his gaze.
In the next few minutes, men and women, old and young, kept coming out of there and passing by Zhou An's side of the road.
He saw many familiar faces, including chefs, waiters, department managers and directors of the Regent Hotel.
He even saw the master of the previous life, Zhong Yifu.
He kept looking faintly, holding a cigarette between his fingers, and playing with the snake in his hand, because he was not concentrating, the snake kept burping****** when the time was almost 1:40, his eyes lit up slightly, his face was slightly raised, and his eyes looked at a broken bicycle that drove out of the exit.
The one who rode the bicycle was the Zhang Honglin he wanted to dig, with a Chinese face and a majestic figure.
On the back seat of the bicycle, there was a slender woman, who was Zhang Honglin's wife, Wang Zhen.
The couple both had smiles on their faces, as if they were chatting about something, and their eyes did not look at Zhou An's side.
But it doesn't matter, seeing them, Zhou An is already smiling.
