Chapter 126: Who Said the Fourth-Stage Assessment Was a Formality?
The response of the Shucheng Kitchen Association was very fast, and soon after Li Yu submitted the telephone application, the Kitchen Association launched a fast approval channel, and two hours later, all the relevant procedures for Li Yuchong's section were completed.
After Li Yu's consent, the Kitchen Association arranged the assessment location to Dongyuan Hotel - as the most famous hotel in Tree City, Dongyuan has become the preferred location for various activities in recent times, for which Zhao Jing also called to thank him.
At the same time, Li Yuchong Duan will also have Shucheng TV Station - that is, a small channel of Fujian Provincial Station to broadcast the whole process on the same day, and the live broadcast of the online platform will also be carried out at the same time, and the Kitchen Association seems to be making a big news.
After all, Li Yu is a real Shucheng person, no matter what his achievements are in the future, the Shucheng Kitchen Association has a 'mother's family' card, in this case, if Li Yu is not borrowed to expand the influence of the Kitchen Association, those leaders of the Kitchen Association will also sit in high positions in vain.
The offline kitchen association is preparing with great fanfare, and the comments on the Internet are divided into two factions, and the two parties are completely consistent with the results of Li Yu's rushing section - they both think that he can rush to the fourth stage, but the two sides have differences of opinion on the question of whether Li Yu will have reservations when he rushes the section.
One netizen believes that this time Li Yu Chong Duan will be broadcast live throughout the whole process, if you make high-grade dishes, then this dish is equivalent to announcing all the details to the public, and today when each family is open to the recipes, Li Yu will not be so generous.
The other party disagrees with this statement, and netizens represented by the hand speed king's 'half an old boat ticket' believe that Li Yu has never made a food below six grades since his debut, and it is definitely not Li Yu's style to choose five dishes in order to retain his strength.
As a result, netizens on both sides were very happy to discuss this on the Internet, and Li Yu naturally knew about it.
"Retain strength?" At this time, he held the mobile phone in his hand and said to Yang Qiguang on the other side of the phone: "Yang Wuduan, who said that I was going through the motions?
In the back kitchen of Dongyuan, Yang Qiguang raised his eyebrows when he heard this: "Oh? Then what do you mean..."
Li Yu smiled: "You just wait for the show to be watched in three days, you won't be disappointed!"
After hanging up the phone, he exhaled deeply, this was the fourth call he had received today, just like the previous three, Yang Qiguang opened his mouth and asked him if he was ready to have reservations during the assessment.
According to the promotion rules, as long as the fourth-stage chef can cook the food on the fifth grade, then he can be successfully promoted to the fifth-rank chef, so if Li Yu does it according to the rules, simply cooking a five-grade high-grade dish is actually completely within the scope allowed by the rules.
But I don't know when it began, the expectations of the people around Li Yu for him have been raised to the level of 'five-grade dishes = retaining strength'.
But then again, since everyone has given Li Yu such high expectations, there is no need for him to let everyone's impression of himself be lowered, after all, he really doesn't pay much attention to a high-quality recipe.
Three days passed in a flash.
In a blink of an eye, it was time for promotion assessment.
Li Yu got up early in the morning that day, today is Thursday, and the little girl still has to go to school, fortunately, the location of today's entrance examination is in Dongyuan Hotel, her familiarity with it is not lower than that at home, and she can find it after school.
After sending the little girl to school, Li Yu went straight to Dongyuan Hotel, and as soon as he got out of the car, he saw Zhao Jing waiting outside the door.
The assessment venue is arranged on the seventh floor of Dongyuan Hotel, which is a hall that can accommodate 700 people, and has been rented for a long time.
Earlier, the Tonwon Hotel held only seven or eight press conferences a month, and occasionally even less, and the number of events doubled within a month, which shows the huge impact of the star ascension on Tungyuan.
"The hotel business is much better, and many high-end customers have also turned around. Li Yu and Zhao Jing walked side by side, Zhao Jing's face was full of red light, and as he spoke, he pointed to a top-of-the-line Land Rover and said: "Well, for example, this car, the owner is called Wang Zhiyuan, the leader of Shucheng Light Industry, it turns out that Jingsheng Hotel is an old customer, he has opened no less than six table banquets with me in the past month, and there are many other similar ones." ”
Then he paused, and continued, "But then again... According to the current growth rate of high-level chefs in Huaxia, I estimate that it will not be long before the other two four-star chefs will be upgraded to five-star. ”
Li Yu raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and pursed his lips: "Brother Zhao, just pretend, who doesn't know that the leader of the Shucheng hotel industry is Dongyuan? ”
Zhao Jing smiled, and Hao touched his head shyly: "Low-key, low-key." According to conservative estimates, the share of high-end customers has reached 85 percent, and more than 60 percent of them have loyalty to Dongyuan. ”
After that, he lowered his voice towards Li Yu in a sly manner: "On the contrary, the other two four-star companies are in a hurry to death, whoever of them is promoted to the fifth star first can still eat some minced meat, and the other one... It's basically scrapped. ”
Li Yu also nodded in agreement when he heard this, Zhao Jing was indeed right, in the hotel industry, four-star hotels and five-star hotels are very different.
High-end diners often have a lot of loyalty to a hotel, and even some active diners have quite good personal relationships with hotel managers and hotel owners. However, the so-called dinner is not a one-person business, as the host must take into account the thoughts of the guests.
If the guest knows that there are two five-star hotels in Tree City, but the host just runs to this four-star hotel to invite guests, then the guest will be unhappy: @#¥ You TM have something to ask me (there is business to discuss), and even the money to go to the five-star hotel is reluctant to spend, this kind of person can't cooperate!
As a result, a cooperation that can be negotiated may end up in the end because of the lack of hotel grade - to tell the truth, there are really a lot of such things.
Therefore, no matter how good the relationship between the diner and the hotel is, when there are many factors to consider, friendship is such a thing... I had to retreat to ten miles and eight streets away.
Li Yu and Zhao Jing chatted and walked like this, and a few minutes later, the two came to a door, Zhao Jing smiled at Li Yu, and made a gesture of please: "Please, Li Sanduan-"
