Chapter 125: Wheat Cake and Fried Snails (2)
"The benefits I give, although you have not heard of them, are definitely something that you have been thinking about for a long time. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info" Zuo Zai answered Huo Feng's question with a very serious expression and tone.
"Where did you give me the scents of the candles from 2008 and 2012?" Huo Feng quickly thought of what he was talking about.
"Why is my boyfriend so smart?" Zuo kissed Huo Feng again, Huo Feng had been putting his face to her side for a while, she felt that if she didn't kiss again, Huo Feng's posture would actually be very hard to maintain.
Huo Feng sat up straight and began to seriously think about the problem he was about to face. Huo Feng felt that Zuo Zai didn't want to introduce himself to his family, but he didn't know how to speak.
"Huo Feng, have you ever eaten fried snails?" Left then decided to adjust the atmosphere.
"Snails?" Huo Feng replied Zuo Zai.
Since he couldn't come to any conclusion for a while, Huo Feng naturally started chatting with Zuo again.
"No, it's smaller than a snail, it's a snail. Let me tell you, fried snails are our "city dish" in Wenzhou, and there are many legends about fried snails in the rivers and lakes. Zuo Zai began to introduce his hometown food to Huo Feng with great interest.
"Can a fried snail become a legend? It's all a legend that belongs to you, a little glutton, right? Huo Feng shook his head in disbelief.
"This is really not a legend that I believe in. In Wenzhou, there are as many as nine out of ten people who believe. The legend is very simple, there is only one sentence: without fried snails, Wenzhou's bars and cafes would not be able to open. Zuo Zai signaled Huo Feng with his eyes to hurry up and believe in himself.
"This can't be true, don't you have a café like Starbucks in Wenzhou?" Huo Feng asked Zuo again.
"Haha, you're really amazing, and you'll get to the point as soon as you ask. Starbucks, which just existed in Wenzhou a few years ago, opened its first store in Times Square. Zuo looked at Huo Feng again, waiting for Huo Feng to express his curiosity.
But Huo Feng was not very curious: "Isn't that the end, can Starbucks still provide fried snails?" ”
"It's even more interesting to say this, Starbucks does not provide fried snails, and then, the first Starbucks in Wenzhou closed within a few days of opening. Originally, like you, the people who thought that the legend of fried snails was nothing at all, suddenly all believed in this legend. "Zuo is telling the truth again.
"So, you don't have a Starbucks in Wenzhou until now?" Huo Feng felt that such a thing was indeed a bit strange, Starbucks closed after a few days of opening, and it was unreasonable to hear it.
"That's not it, that Starbucks closed for a while, and then it reopened." Left sold another off.
"Started serving fried snails?" Huo Feng was still a little unconvinced.
"No~ The first Starbucks in Wenzhou, after the closure adjustment, finally got the health permit. Hahahaha. Zuo goodbye Huo Feng also began to believe a little in "Wenzhou folklore", so he smiled happily.
"So, this legend is still fake after all." Huo Feng concluded.
"Although the legend of fried snails is fake, the status of fried snails in the Wenzhou food industry can be seen from this." Zuo Zai happily chatted with Huo Feng about the food of his hometown.
"I've smelled it or not, and I can't search for relevant images in my memory." Huo Feng was a little depressed, and his heart of wanting to go to Wenzhou to see was made more urgent by Zuo.
…………………………
The process of creating their own candles for Leslie and Suki went particularly smoothly, and it took Zuo more than two days to complete.
Restoring the taste of food is what Zuo Zai is best at.
The previous egg fried rice candle was not completed in a short period of time, entirely because Zuo Zai wanted to smell and taste as "ecstasy", but sometimes, the ecstasy of food is inseparable from the temperature and taste.
The egg fried rice candle that Zuo Zai made at that time, just from the smell of it, was definitely the same.
Zuo Zai thought, since restoring the taste of food is the easiest for her, then Windle Aromatherapy launched a private customized service? Is it really possible?
How is it priced? What about the market?
Zuo Zai felt the need to do a market research.
If you want to launch a private customized service, which city should you rehearse in first?
London? New York? Or Shanghai?
What kind of opportunity should you use to start launching a private order?
Should private customization only be done with a single one, or can it be customized by the way?
After concocting a tomato baked potato scented candle for Leslie and Suki, he got down to business.
Zuo Zai is the CEO of Windle's Shanghai branch, and it stands to reason that Zuo Zai's best attempt is to start in the Shanghai market.
But Zuo Zai is also a shareholder of the entire Windle Group, just because Zuo Zai came to Shanghai, and most of the perfumers in Windle's entire perfumery department are now also based in Shanghai. (Note 1)
Although the domestic market is growing rapidly, the main battlefield of Windle fragrance so far is still in Europe and the United States.
It is best to launch a private order under the premise that the user base is sufficient.
Shanghai's market has only just opened for a little over a year, will it be big enough now?
Private customization, only four simple words, but really to do it, there are many problems that need to be solved.
…………………………
After the candle fragrance blending for Suki and Leslie was completed, the simplest transparent glass with the Windle Aromatherapy logo was used in the perfume room for experimentation, and then sent to Suki and Leslie in London by DHL.
Zuo Zai sent the custom-made candles to his classmates in London on Wednesday, and Suki and Leslie received them on Thursday.
Although there is no special packaging, there will be no shortage of details. Because after the essential oil of the flavor Suki and Leslie wanted was blended, the thermal conductivity was a little worse than that of the previous Windle incense candle.
Therefore, the left and then three candle wicks together, only to complete the production of this private custom candle wick, after the wick is done, you need to glue the candle wick to the bottom of the cup by hand.
After the wick is placed, the wax oil is filled, and the wick is adjusted to a vertical state before the wax oil dries. Finally, the excessively long wick part of the candle should be trimmed, and the length of the wick left on the outside of the wax oil for the Windle incense candle is exactly 3.6 mm each.
If it weren't for the special bottle design of the limited edition, the burning time of each Windle candle in each glass would be 56 hours, and the error would not add up to more than an hour.
Usually when the candle is extinguished, there will be an incongruous smell coming out, but the wick of Windle Aromatherapy is pure vegetable cotton thread, and it will not produce a peculiar smell when it is extinguished under the premise of no lead.
When Suki and Leslie received the custom incense candles from Zuo Zai, they ran into a problem.
This flavor that carries the memories of their two youths, where should it be the best? Shouldn't we add some candlesticks to the soft decoration part?
