Chapter 511: The Lost Hideto Takahashi

Seeing that the reporters finally quieted down, Xiao Ping said loudly: "First of all, I have reached an agreement with Hell's Kitchen Magazine that I will only accept exclusive interviews with Hell's Kitchen at present, and I can only say sorry to other media; ”

Hearing the two news announced by Xiao Ping, those reporters immediately mourned. They didn't react much to the news of the auction, but they did have a big problem with Xiao Ping only being interviewed by Hell's Kitchen magazine, which meant that they couldn't dig up the latest news.

Only Ramsey was more than happy with Chaupin's statement, which means his Hell's Kitchen Magazine interview about Chaupin will be scooping. This is very rare for a magazine that is not very time-sensitive.

The angry chef glanced at Jessica, who was staring at Xiao Ping affectionately, and thought to himself: "I still have to let Jessica go for the interview, and I can definitely dig up more inside information." ”

In fact, the reason why Xiao Ping announced that he would only accept an interview with Hell's Kitchen was to return the favor to Ramsey. After all, at this expo, the angry chef helped Xiao Ping a lot, and now there is such a ready-made opportunity, of course Xiao Ping doesn't mind reciprocating it.

As for Xiao Ping's public statement that those truffles will be auctioned, it is completely taking the opportunity to advertise for himself. Now that these truffles have been dug up, there is no need to bring them back to China. Taking advantage of the opportunity to make a splash at the fair, selling these truffles is undoubtedly the best option.

Xiao Ping is even planning that if the truffles are in great demand, they might as well dig up some more and auction them together. Anyway, no one knows the exact number of truffles in that box. Whether it is more or less is all up to Xiao Ping himself.

After announcing these two news, Xiao Ping left through the side door of the exhibition hall. Of course, those reporters would not let him go. They all followed behind and asked all kinds of questions. Xiao Ping kept repeating the words "no comment" all the way, which was really addicted to being a public figure.

Xiao Ping won a big victory at this fair. Not only did he win multiple awards, but he also won a bet with Lorenzo. These two things are undoubtedly very helpful for Xiao Ping to develop his career in Europe and the United States, and even Jessica is happy for him. When the two returned to the hotel, the excited Jessica immediately conducted an "in-depth and detailed" interview with Xiao Ping, and both parties were very satisfied with the interview.

Although the expo is over, Xiao Ping can't leave New York for the time being, and there are still a lot of things to deal with. The organizers of the expo also have a simple award ceremony to present trophies and certificates to the winners of the gold, silver and bronze awards for various categories of ingredients.

Even in the world of haute cuisine, these trophies and certificates are a symbol of honor. Xiao Ping, of course, will not miss the award. He was undoubtedly the most eye-catching person at the ceremony, winning the award from start to finish.

In addition to the award ceremony, Xiao Ping also has to be concerned about the upcoming truffle auction. Although this matter was also entrusted to Hell's Kitchen, Xiao Ping was the owner of the auction after all, and there were still many things that he needed to decide personally.

With Ramsey personally in charge, the auction went smoothly. With Xiao Ping's amazing performance at the fair, many people came to participate in the truffle auction. The facts did not disappoint them either, and all the truffles auctioned were big and good. The high quality surprised all bidders.

There were still people who had doubts that Xiao Ping could win the gambling contract, but after seeing the truffles in the auction, everyone understood that Xiao Ping really lived up to his reputation.

In order to get a piece of such a superb truffle, bidders do not hesitate to shout a high price. In the end, the auction brought Xiao Ping more than $3 million in revenue. It has set a sales record for truffle auctions in recent years.

This price is indeed much higher than the previous auctions at Pierre's Restaurant. It is fully explained that even if you have good things, you need to publicize them, and only in this way can you dig out the maximum value.

After the auction, Xiao Ping received a call from Hideto Takahashi. The Japanese said he was leaving New York. Before that, I want to invite Xiao Ping to have a meal and meet.

In any case, fortunately, the company is also Xiao Ping's partner, and he is not easy to refuse Takahashi's invitation. I had to say yes. Originally, Xiao Ping wanted to go with Jessica, but the American chick was not interested in such a social. He had no choice but to go to the appointment alone.

Takahashi's chosen location is one of the best Chinese restaurants in New York. From this point, it can be seen that he is very good at being a man, and he knows that Xiao Pingyuan is in a foreign country, and the food in his hometown is undoubtedly the most delicious for him.

In order to show the importance of the banquet Xiao Ping, Takahashi Hideto did not come alone, even several of his subordinates also arrived, including of course, Miss Sakurako, who wore a trench coat to be a light bulb that night.

To Xiao Ping's surprise, Miss Sakurako seemed to have forgotten the embarrassment of that night and behaved very naturally during the meal. As the only woman at the banquet, Sakurako knew what she had to do. She persuaded Hideto Takahashi to drink for a while, coquettishly to Xiao Ping for a while, and occasionally sold cuteness to a few other colleagues, which played a good role as a lubricant.

With Miss Sakurako's efforts, the atmosphere at the banquet quickly became lively, and the relationship between Xiao Ping and Hideto Takahashi seemed to be better. Of course, whether the relationship between the two is really good to this extent is only known by the parties themselves.

"Brother Xiao Ping, I salute you!" Hideto Takahashi raised his glass to Xiao Ping, raised his head and drank the liquor in the toast and sighed: "I won't tell you, this time I came to participate in the expo, I originally wanted to bring a few awards back, and I was lucky enough to strengthen the momentum of our company......! Then it's none of me!"

Hideto Takahashi's loss is not faked. If you want to say that the person who was hit the most at the fair this time, besides Lorenzo, it was him.

Hideto Takahashi seized on the loophole in the contract and sent Koshika Co., Ltd.'s vegetables to New York for the fair in the name of "not for sale", and he was indeed aiming for the prize. At that time, Hideto Takahashi was still proud of his cleverness, and felt that with the quality of these vegetables, even if he couldn't win the gold award, he could at least get a silver award.

I never thought that Xiao Ping would also decide to participate in the expo at the last moment, and he and Lilian Ranch divided the awards in the vegetable category cleanly, but Hideto Takahashi, who was originally aiming to win, didn't even get a bronze award.

In order to participate in this fair, Hideto Takahashi not only spent a lot of money to transport vegetables to New York, but also brought several subordinates to help. This is a lot of money, and it was all Hideto Takahashi who spent a lot of effort to get it. If he can get an award and go back, everyone will be happy, but now he has nothing to gain, and life will be sad when he goes back.

In the past few days, Xiao Ping has been doing well, and his mood is naturally very good. Seeing that Hideto Takahashi was so lost, he couldn't help but pat him on the shoulder and comforted, "Don't be so depressed." I won't be able to attend next year's expo, but you still have a chance!"

Although Xiao Ping's words were tantamount to a promise, Hideto Takahashi still couldn't be happy. He knew very well that Xiao Ping had already made a name for himself at the fair, and there would definitely be more and more people who wanted to cooperate with him in the future. Even if Xiao Ping himself does not participate in the expo, his partners will definitely be. Fortunately, the vegetables of the company did not have an advantage at all, and I was not sure that I would win the award.

In fact, Xiao Ping and the Japanese were only general friends, and they didn't bother to persuade Takahashi Hideto, but quickly changed the topic and said: "The matter here is over, when will Mr. Takahashi return to China?"

"I'm leaving New York tomorrow. Hideto Takahashi said in a deep voice: "But it's not going back to China, but I'm going to Orlando, Florida." Tuna season is approaching, so I'm going to get in touch with the seafood company there and get them to sell us the best tuna. ”

In fact, with Hideto Takahashi's current position, he no longer needs to personally intervene in these things. However, Hideto Takahashi returned home at the expo, and he can only hope that he can make some achievements in other aspects, and he will have an explanation after returning to the company.

Takahashi Hideto's words reminded Xiao Ping that the bluefin tuna in the demon refining pot had grown to be longer than an adult, and it weighed at least three hundred catties. It's time for such a big tuna to be marketed, so why not take this opportunity to sell it to Hideto Takahashi?

Thinking of this, Xiao Ping couldn't help laughing, and said to Takahashi Xiu mysteriously: "Mr. Takahashi, when it comes to tuna, I have some in my hand this year." As for the quality, you don't have to worry, I never sell resistive goods, you know that very well, right?"

Xiao Ping's words intrigued Hideki Takahashi. He knew that what Xiao Ping sold must be no different, so he hurriedly asked with concern: "I want to know how much tuna there is?"

"About ten. Xiao Ping quickly gave a specific number: "The average weight is more than 150 kilograms, all of them are big fish!"

Listening to Xiao Ping's words, Takahashi Hideto's eyes immediately lit up. Bluefin tuna over 150 kilograms is already considered a big deal, and in previous years, during the entire tuna season, Hideto Takahashi could only buy five or six at most. And Xiao Ping opened his mouth to more than a dozen, and it is guaranteed to be more than 150 kilograms, but it is the amount of Takahashi Hideto's purchase in the past two years.

If Hideto Takahashi can make such a result in the acquisition of tuna this year, he will be able to make up for some of his mistakes at the expo, and it will be easier to explain a lot when he returns. For Hideto Takahashi, this is undoubtedly the best news he has heard since the expo.

Thinking of this, Hideto Takahashi's gaze at Xiao Ping also became hot, just like an old pervert looking at a beautiful woman, which made Xiao Ping a little uneasy. (To be continued.) For mobile phone users, please read it on m.biquge.info. )
