Chapter 765 - Shaking the French Restaurant Industry
After listening to Xiao Ping's words, Jessica replied without thinking: "Of course it will sell very well, even if the price is high, someone will buy it." Do you know how much a woman is willing to pay in order to become pretty? There is an old Jewish saying, 'Women and children make the best money.'" ”
Xiao Ping pondered: "What you said makes a lot of sense, I really have to consider this possibility when I have time, but now ......"
"What do you want to do now?" Jessica, who was already exhausted, asked Xiao Ping with some fear, for fear that he would say that he would continue the interview.
Seeing Jessica's worries, Xiao Ping smiled at her and said, "Of course, I'm going to accompany you more now, and listen to you talk about your recent experience." Usually we are far away from each other, and it is not easy to see each other once, of course, we need to be together a lot. ”
Jessica was very touched by Xiao Ping's words, and she pressed her cheek against his chest and muttered, "You are so good to me." When I went back to the ranch last month, Mark told me that the ranch's products are now popular all over North America, and that there has never been a long queue of trucks in front of the ranch every day to buy vegetables. My dear, I never thought that Lillian's Ranch would be where it is today, this ...... It's all thanks to you, thank you!"
Lillian is Jessica's mother's name, so Lillian's Ranch has a special meaning to her. Now that Lillian's ranch is thriving, Jessica is very happy. She also knows that the success of Ludao Ranch depends on Xiao Ping, and she likes this reliable and responsible man from the bottom of her heart.
Xiao Ping could understand Jessica's feelings at this time, and took her into his arms and said softly: "There is no need to say thank you between us, it is also my luck to know you." You make me feel like the luckiest man I can be. ”
Xiao Ping's love words rekindled Jessica's passion, and she glanced up at Xiao Ping with a charming look and said, "Honey." I...... I want to continue interviewing you!"
"Happy!" Xiao Ping responded with a smile, and the two soon started a new round of interviews.
After the end of the promotion. Jessica stayed in Paris for four days. The Hell's Kitchen reporter claimed that she was conducting an in-depth interview with Xiao Ping, but only the person concerned knew what the so-called "in-depth interview" was about.
Of course, this kind of thing can't be done for four days in a row, otherwise even an iron-clad person can't bear it. In between "interviews", Xiao Ping will also answer Jessica's pre-prepared questions, so that she can go back to socialize with the magazine. Xiao Ping can be said to have answered all questions about Jessica, which made her dig up a lot of inside information. Two of the American chick's colleagues also admired her so much that they felt that Ramsey was right to send Jessica to interview Xiao Ping.
During these four days, there was also a huge shake in the French dining scene. The chefs who participated in the promotion meeting highly praised the products of the Holy Pot Company, and in their mouths they became a rare and uncommon good thing on earth. If any restaurant can't buy ingredients from the Holy Pot Company, it will be difficult to gain a foothold in the French fine dining scene in the future.
At first, the other chefs weren't convinced. But the next day, several media outlets published the news of the promotion, and all of them focused on the comments of Brownie and Ramsey, and the other chefs were not calm. To be able to get such a high evaluation from these two people is enough to show that the ingredients of the Holy Pot Company are extraordinary, and if we can't reach a cooperative relationship with them, we may not be able to gain a foothold in the high-end catering industry in the future.
Chefs and restaurant managers who didn't make it to the event came to Pierre to establish a partnership with the French branch, or at least to maintain good communication with them.
Now is a good time to promote your branch. Pierre is also unambiguous. As long as someone comes to the door, let them taste the ingredients sold by the company first. The facts are the most convincing, and those who have tasted these ingredients finally believe that the guests and the media of the promotion will not talk nonsense. If you can't establish a cooperative relationship with the French holy pot company, sooner or later you will be eliminated from the high-end catering industry.
With this realization, these high-end restaurants all sent people to negotiate with the French Holy Pot Company. A few days ago, the French holy pot company was also opened. Suddenly, it became the most striking company in the French restaurant industry, keeping Pierre and his men busy in the dark. Every day, I have to negotiate cooperation with several restaurants.
The restaurateurs who had reached a partnership agreement with the Holy Pot Company were all beaming and looking forward to a prosperous future for the restaurant. The restaurateurs who have yet to reach an agreement are nervous. Conduct a public relations relationship for Pierre's extremely subordinates, hoping to sign the contract as soon as possible.
And among the owners of high-end restaurants in France, the most nervous is Edgar, the owner of the Seine restaurant in Paris. He had heard that the big boss of the Holy Pot Company had personally announced at the promotion meeting that it was impossible for the restaurant that hired Durant to buy these ingredients.
In order to survive in the high-end restaurant industry, Edgar would rather pay a large severance pay than insist on firing Durant. Then he went to Pierre with proof of the end of his employment contract with Durant, hoping to sign a purchase contract with the Holy Pot Company.
The Holy Pot Company did mean what it said, and soon signed an agreement with Edgar. While Edgar left the Holy Pot Company with a contract contentedly, Durant's reputation was completely intriguing. No high-end restaurant in France will hire him anymore, and even if he opens a restaurant at his own expense, he will not be competitive enough to be among the high-end restaurants.
After all, Durant is also a very famous chef, so he is naturally unwilling to sink like this. He knew that he couldn't get along in France, so he simply went to Italy, where there was no fairy pot company at the moment. It's just that Xiao Ping will occupy the entire European market sooner or later, and Durant is just surviving by doing so.
After spending four days full of tenderness and sweetness with Xiao Ping, Jessica is going back to New York. The night before leaving, the American chick let go of everything and let Xiao Ping take what she wanted, and used this way to express her love for him.
The next day, Xiao Ping personally drove Jessica to the airport, and after some goodbye, she finally got on the plane to the United States. Xiao Ping, who was lost, returned to the branch alone and saw a busy scene where everyone was so busy that their feet did not touch the ground.
Xiao Ping is used to being the owner of the shopkeeper, and the surprised eyes of the French staff have no effect on him at all, and he came directly to Pierre's office and asked with a smile: "It seems that everyone is very busy, how are you doing these days?"
"You can see that we are very busy, right?" With two dark circles under his eyes due to lack of sleep, Pierre glanced at Xiao Ping angrily and said, "As the boss of the company, you can't see people for a few days, it's really a little unreasonable, right?"
Xiao Ping didn't take Pierre's words to heart at all, and said with a smile: "This is the business of the French branch, you can be in charge, I am absolutely assured of you!"
Pierre's personality is relatively straight, and he immediately debunked Xiao Ping: "Don't pick a good one, I know that you have been with Jessica for the past few days, a real heavy color and light friend!"
Rao is Xiao Ping's cheeks have been trained thick enough, and Pierre's words still make him blush. However, Xiao Ping quickly returned to normal, and Zhengse said to the Frenchman: "I was just interviewed by Hell's Kitchen, this is a good opportunity to promote the company, it's a business matter!
"Okay, I really don't have time to argue with you about this, there are several restaurants waiting to talk to me about cooperation. Pierre interrupted Xiao Ping and said, "I have two things to tell you, the calves have passed the quarantine period and have been transported to the farm. Now everything is working on the farm, whether it is livestock, vegetables or pasture, it is very good, and the workers on the farm are very surprised. ”
Xiao Ping was satisfied: "That's good, the farm's output will not only supply the French market, but also face the entire European market." At present, the farm is operating normally, which is equivalent to laying a solid foundation for the development of the European market. ”
Pierre nodded in agreement, and then said to Xiao Ping: "Another thing is that the manager of the winery, Hao Chau, called and said that the first batch of barrels has been prepared. By the way, how did I not know that the winery was going to change the barrels? How much did it cost? I could get the accountant to transfer the money to the winery's account. ”
Xiao Ping didn't plan to let the French branch pay for it, but smiled and waved his hand: "I just happened to get some good oak, so I wanted to replace the original barrel of the winery." This is considered my personal sponsorship of the French branch, and I don't want the branch to pay for it. ”
Hearing Xiao Ping say that he didn't need to pay from the branch, Pierre breathed a sigh of relief. The previous dilemma of lack of money has left a psychological shadow on Pierre, and now that the branch has not begun to make a profit, he really does not dare to spend money indiscriminately.
Zhilu Dao Ma Dan and his son had already made the first batch of wine barrels, and Xiao Ping's mind had already flown to the winery. Anyway, he couldn't help Pierre by staying in Paris, so he drove to Provence after leaving the branch.
When Xiao Ping came to the Holy Pot Winery, he found that it was very different from when he left more than ten days ago.
The vines of the winery's more than nine hectares of vines have been planted in neat lines, adding a touch of life to the vineyards, which have appeared to be somewhat deserted. Workers are busy in the vineyard reinforcing trellises in preparation for the rapid growth of the vines after the beginning of spring.
Xiao Ping drove to the front and found that all the vines had begun to sprout and grow tender green leaves. Many of the grapes have pale green filaments sticking out of the top of the leaf buds and are beginning to climb along the trellis.
Seeing the growth of these vines, Xiao Ping also smiled with satisfaction. The vines cultivated through the Demon Refining Pot are extraordinary, and the growth rate is indeed amazing.
Haucer is in the vineyard, checking the progress of the workers in building the trellises. After seeing Xiao Ping's car, he hurriedly greeted him, and said with mixed feelings: "Mr. Xiao, there is something wrong with the newly planted grapes!" (to be continued......)
