Chapter 376: Two Awards for the Food Festival
Jianghai Food Festival is an annual food event in Jianghai.
In previous years, the scale was relatively small, so the influence was limited.
This year's Jianghai Food Festival is to attract food tourists from home and abroad, so the city government attaches great importance to it.
At the opening ceremony, even Ren Jiuqing, vice mayor of Jianghai City, personally attended and spoke.
Although Bai Xiaobai's booth couldn't see the stage clearly, he could hear everyone's speeches on the stage just now.
In fact, it is very formal, first of all, the food festival is in line with socialism...... Then he talked about the purpose of the food festival......
In short, Bai Xiaobai is the left ear and the right ear comes out.
The focus of his attention is on the selection of famous snacks in this food festival.
From the speeches of various leaders, he understood the general process of the selection of famous snacks in this food festival.
On the first day of the festival, the selection will not be launched for the time being.
The judging process begins on the third day of the festival.
There are a total of 208 booth merchants in this food festival, and each merchant can choose up to three delicious snacks sold at the booth to participate in this selection.
Because of the large number of delicacies that participated.
The judging panel of the festival will divide all judges into four groups: A, B, C, and D.
Each panel of judges is responsible for a section, personally tastes the food at each booth, and then pre-selects the ten best gourmet snacks to advance to the finals.
In this way, a total of 40 gourmet snacks entered the finals of famous snacks.
The awards for the Grand Finale are divided into two categories.
The first category is the gold, silver and bronze awards of famous snacks, which belongs to the expert award, that is, the opinions of all the judges are gathered, and one gold, silver and bronze snack is selected and awarded to the winners.
The second category is the Famous Snack Award, which is a popularity award, which does not select a single delicacy, but a business.
That is, during the food festival, which booth merchant is the most popular can receive the award.
The specific method of selection is not an expert vote, but a popular vote.
Voting is by secret ballot.
The Jianghai Food Festival has opened the mobile voting SMS function.
During the food festival, everyone can send an edited text message to the number of the food festival organizing committee to select the most satisfactory booth merchant of the food festival.
Of course, SMS voting is not free, it costs money, and one dollar is charged for a text message.
Bai Xiaobai already has a rough idea of the content of the two major categories of food festivals.
To be honest, the purpose of his participation in the food festival this time is to come in the name of rewards.
He wants to win both the Expert Award and the Popularity Award, but the reality is cruel, until now his booth is still empty, and no one wants to stay.
Even before the festival, there were some regular customers who promised to come and cheer, but until now they haven't shown up.
Bai Xiaobai looked left and right and looked forward, the barbecue booth around him, the tofu cooking booth, and the siu mai booth, each of which was very popular, it was simply crowded.
The waiters were full, and the business owners all showed a satisfied smile, obviously full of money.
For the leaders of the municipal government, the food festival is conducive to promoting food and cultural exchanges, promoting the vigorous development of tourism, and for ordinary businesses, it is actually an opportunity to make money.
Bai Xiaobai didn't feel very good at the moment, but he wasn't jealous of the popularity of other booths.
It's just that the gap between now and yesterday is really a bit big.
The store in front of him was full of pomp and circumstance, and it was very popular. And at this little food festival booth, he had to start everything from scratch.
It's all back to square one.
Never give up, never be discouraged!
Bai Xiaobai smiled indifferently, and secretly encouraged himself in his heart.
"This is the number of your booth. A staff member wearing a small yellow hat interrupted Bai Xiaobai's thoughts, he took a large sticker and handed it to Bai Xiaobai, "You stick it in a conspicuous position." ”
This sticker is made by the Organizing Committee of the Food Festival for each booth merchant in advance, and the main purpose is to facilitate people to edit the booth number of the merchant when voting for the winner of the famous snack award.
Bai Xiaobai took the number and looked at "......"
Number 44.
Chinese people are more or less sensitive to the number 4.
Bai Xiaobai is a four-good young man, in fact, he doesn't care too much about this number, but he can absolutely avoid this situation by the organizing committee, such as directly canceling the number 44, and directly 45 after 43.
"By the way, this is a small book of precautions for food festival booth merchants, and the organizing committee let it be issued. The little yellow hat took out a booklet and put it on the edge of the booth, and then accidentally saw the selling price marked on the whiteboard on the side.
900 yuan for a bowl of clear soup powder?
That's 10 times my day's billed salary......
Zizizi, I think there's something wrong with this little boss.
The little yellow hat glanced at Bai Xiaobai with strange eyes, and then hurriedly walked down the next booth.
Bai Xiaobai's heart was hit by 10,000 critical hits again, but his heart had already cultivated the Eight Desolations and Six Alloy Bell Jars, and this 10,000-point critical hit was like tickling, completely insignificant.
He picked up the booklet and began to read it carefully.
This year, the organizing committee of the food festival has prepared two brochures, one is the food festival brochure, which is mainly aimed at customers who patronize the food festival.
At the entrance to the Food Festival Square, it is sent free of charge by volunteers.
The brochure has a floor plan of the food booth in XX Square, precautions for publicity, and notes on all the merchants of this food festival, as well as some foods, mainly to facilitate customers to find their favorite food.
Another noteworthy manual is for booth vendors.
This is nothing more than a description of the precautions, to keep the ingredients clean, to have a good service attitude, and to prepare spare samples for testing.
For example, in the university cafeteria, a spare food sample will be prepared for each dish, which is mainly for fear of emergencies, such as food poisoning, so that the police can detect whether there is a problem with the food.
After Bai Xiaobai finished reading the booklet, it was already close to noon.
Today's weather is excellent, cloudless, the blue sky is exceptionally clear, and the warm sun shines on the body without being hot or dry, just right.
More and more people entered XX Square, and many people had lunch directly in front of the food festival booth.
It's just that so far, no one wants to try Bai Xiaobai's new food.
In fact, during this period, although some of the old customers of Xiaobai Restaurant passed by Bai Xiaobai's booth.
But they were a little hesitant when they saw the pricing.
One is that this new product is too expensive, or the noodles and flour of clear soup......
And this time, they needed to charge an extra ten yuan for the package, which made them back down again.
The third is that when I saw that there was no one in Bai Xiaobai's booth, I always felt very embarrassed to step forward.
In this way, Bai Xiaobai's customer volume in the morning is 0, the income is 0, and the happiness index is still 0.
Morning is over, and it's finally time for lunch.
