Chapter 363: Internal Communication
Dianxin Building is newly opened, there are all kinds of problems, and Gao Dian and Wei Qiaoyi have no management experience.
Both of them groped their way in.
Wei Qiaoyi is actually better, although she has no experience, she has been exposed to it since she was a child, and she also understands something.
In contrast, Gao Dian really doesn't understand anything.
Growing up, he managed four people at most, and in high school, he was the leader of the class study group.
The two are a partnership to open a store, and nothing can fall on Wei Qiaoyi alone.
In the kitchen, Wei Qiaoyi is in charge, and she is the head chef.
But there are other things that Gao Dian needs to worry about.
Wei Qiaoyi found a friend to design the mini program before, and it has been negotiated, but it will take a while to do it.
In their opinion, it is a small program, but it is not easy to actually do.
The mini program has not yet been done, and now the limited dishes in Dianxin Building require the waiter to work harder.
When to hand it out and when not to hand it out, you need to cooperate with the kitchen.
Word-of-mouth is slowly formed, Dianxinlou has only been opened for a short time, and has not yet formed a particularly stable customer, and word-of-mouth is still in the process of forming.
Now the customers of Dianxin Building, even the customers of the previous Gao Dianxin Shop can't catch up, but the consumption level is far beyond the Dianxin Shop.
However, the potential of Dianxinlou is greater than that of Dianxinpu.
The business of Dianxinlou is slowly booming, but it also makes some people red.
The competition in the catering industry is too fierce now, and I have seen it in Gao Dian in City C, where the old hotels are forced to form an alliance to fight against the emerging hotels.
The catering market is actually very large, but that is the whole. Under the segmentation, the low-end market is the largest, and the high-end market is the smallest.
There are quite a lot of rich people in China, but how many people are willing to spend hundreds or thousands per meal?
Yes, yes, on the whole, it's just a minority.
These few people are the target group of the high-end market.
The positioning of Dianxin Building is high-end, and the target customers are those with high consumption levels.
This market is too limited.
If it is said that Gaodian's Dianxin shop was in the past, it was just competing with the surrounding restaurants.
Then Dianxin Tower is to compete with the high-end hotels of the whole city.
Of course, although the current Dianxin Building has been noticed, it has not been paid much attention to.
The red-eyed ones are just some of the same as Dianxinlou, which have just opened, but the business is not good.
The old high-end hotel, in fact, does not care about the development of Dianxin Building.
…………
Su Min packed up his things and prepared to go to the newly opened Dianxin Building for a tasting.
As a food critic, it's her job.
On the Internet, there are many people who pay attention to Su Min, and some of these people who pay attention to her love food, and the other part is to watch the excitement.
Unlike many Internet celebrity bloggers today, Su Min became famous very early, and became famous more than ten years ago, and now he is one of the most famous people in the industry.
Su Min is a professional food critic and her articles are regularly published in food magazines.
This is also one of her sources of income.
Later, with the development of the Internet, Su Min also registered his own social account, and also posted some articles on the social account from time to time.
All in all, Su Min's influence is not low, and many restaurants hope to invite her to publicize and publicize, hoping that she will say more good things and not talk about shortcomings.
Su Min is also a principled person, she understands the foundation of her life, so she rejects many such money-making opportunities.
In Su Min's current position, money is no longer the only pursuit, and she is not so short of money. She values her reputation more than the opportunity to make money.
In this world, there is always something more important than money.
drove the car to the newly opened Dianxin Building, and before coming, she investigated the background of the Dianxin Building.
What made her sigh was that one of the bosses of Dianxin Building was actually Gao Dian.
Su Min was more impressed by this young man, and at the exchange meeting, he was confident and flamboyant, and he also won the victory with a one-to-many cooking competition.
At the beginning, Su Min also went to ask for Gao Dian's contact information, saying that he was going to the store he opened. As a result, there has been something to do since then, and there is no past.
Later, after a long time, Su Min forgot about it.
Now that she was suddenly awakened to this memory, Su Min couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, because she was untrustworthy.
Walking into Dianxin Building, she looked at the decoration style here, which was very stylish, the interval between the locations was also very reasonable, and the space was relatively large, which would not make people feel crowded.
As soon as I walked in, a waiter came.
Led by the waiter, Su Min sat in a window position.
From this location, you can see pedestrians and vehicles on the street, but you can't hear anything inside, it's like a mime.
Looking at the menu, there are a lot of pastries.
Many ingredients are more expensive, such as lobster, crab roe and the like, and even sea cucumbers, abalone, black truffles, and so on.
This type of pastry, which has expensive ingredients added to it, is more expensive than ordinary pastry.
However, compared to other hotels of the same size, it is cheap.
Flipping to the back, Su Min suddenly smiled, she found the main goal of coming today-limited dishes.
Before coming, she did a simple investigation of Dianxin Lou and knew that the special feature of Dianxin Lou was the limited dishes.
She looked at the menu of the limited menus, and she already had a general idea.
The price of this limited menu is very high, and even these limited dishes do not use any expensive ingredients, but they are more expensive than other pastries that use expensive ingredients.
If it were someone else, I would probably be very angry, why would the limited dishes be so expensive? The ingredients still look ordinary.
But Su Min won't.
Some mid-range restaurants sell ingredients. They prefer to cook with expensive ingredients, and the price is certainly not low, but the taste is also a matter of opinion.
High-end restaurants sell cooking skills, and the ingredients used may not be too expensive and rare, but the taste made is indeed incomparable to many rare ingredients.
It can only be said that other people's craftsmanship is worthy of this price.
This is probably the case with the limited menu.
Su Min thought to himself.
She ordered some normal pastries, two more limited pastries, and waited in her place.
Time passed slowly, and the dishes came up one by one.
Su Min tasted elegantly, she ate very slowly, tasted carefully, and took out the tablet she carried with her from time to time to record.
Su Min's actions attracted the attention of those who were interested, and after some inquiries, they found that Su Min was a professional food critic.
Suddenly, he reported the situation to Gao Dian.
At this time, Gao Dian was busy in the kitchen, and someone came to tell him that a food critic had come outside.
Gao Dian pondered for a while and said, "Don't worry about it, just treat it normally." ”
"Got it."
Not long after the man left, Wei Qiaoyi came over and asked curiously, "What did you just say?" ”
Gao Dian said: "He said that there was a food critic out there, and he was quite famous. ”
"Shall we give a special treatment?" Wei Qiaoyi asked.
Gao Dian looked at her in surprise and said, "Why do you want to give a special treatment?" ”
"Publicity, if it's really a food critic, then give us publicity, and there will be more customers." Wei Qiaoyi said with a smile.
"What you said makes sense, we gave special treatment, and they are all high-level dishes, and she can really attract a lot of customers when she looks back and publicizes. But those customers' expectations were very high at the beginning, and when they came to our store, they felt that the taste was almost good, and they might not come again next time. Gao Dian said.
"Makes sense." Wei Qiaoyi nodded.
"What's more, it will affect our reputation. Rather than this, it is better to treat it normally, what it should be, what it is. Gao Dian said.
Wei Qiaoyi pondered for a while and said, "Okay, what you say is reasonable, just do what you say." ”
After finishing speaking, Wei Qiaoyi returned to his position.
Some time ago, Dianxin Building was just starting, and Wei Qiaoyi was busy letting the kitchen team run in, so he didn't make pastries.
Now that the team is basically running-in, Wei Qiaoyi is also a lot free, so she also started making pastries.
On the limited dishes, the pastries made by Wei Qiaoyi were added.
After Su Min ate it, he left Dianxin Building, this was the first time to taste, and it was not comprehensive enough.
In the future, she will continue to do a few tastings, and then start to write reviews of Dianxinlou.
………………
When he was about to get off work, Wei Qiaoyi quietly came to Gao Dian's side.
"What I discussed with you yesterday, how did you think about it?" Wei Qiaoyi asked.
At this time, Gao Dian was free, and when he heard Wei Qiaoyi's words, he said, "Are you talking about holding the competition?" ”
Wei Qiaoyi nodded: "That's right, that's it." ”
"Yes, internal competitions can also promote everyone's progress." Gao Dian nodded.
"Then I'll announce it later?" Wei Qiaoyi asked.
"Okay." Gao Dian responded.
Time passed in a flash, and when it was time to get off work, everyone was packing up their things one after another.
Wei Qiaoyi clapped her hands and said loudly: "Wait a minute, everyone, I have something to announce." ”
Hearing this, everyone stopped and waited quietly for Wei Qiaoyi's next words.
"In order to promote communication and improve everyone's cooking skills, we have decided to hold an in-house cooking competition in our kitchen once a month. Everyone participates on a voluntary basis, and the champion will receive a reward of 500 yuan. Wei Qiaoyi said.
As soon as these words came out, there was a lot of discussion below, discussing this internal cooking competition.
In fact, cooking competitions are not uncommon, as long as you have the heart to explore, you can find that there are still many such competitions, but the scale is different.
But an in-house cooking competition in a restaurant is rare.
Because this kind of competition doesn't mean much.
If you have no influence in your internal competition, the champion will be rewarded with 500 yuan, and you will waste a lot of time and energy.
This is not really good for the chef or the restaurant.
Yao Jun said, "Let me ask, can anyone participate in this cooking competition?" ”
Although 500 yuan is not much, it can still be obtained if you can get it.
Yao Jun wanted to participate, so he asked.
Wei Qiaoyi shook her head and smiled: "The first-level pastry chef doesn't need to participate, and everyone has more opportunities." The first-level pastry chef is the referee for everyone. ”
Yao Jun was a little disappointed, if he couldn't participate, he wouldn't be interested. What interested him was five hundred dollars, and as for the referee, he didn't have much to think about.
At this time, someone asked, "Chef, when is the competition?" ”
Wei Qiaoyi said: "After all, you can't delay the normal working time. ”
"What if it's on the day of the event?"
Wei Qiaoyi said: "Then you need to rush over to participate." ”
At this time, many people who were originally interested suddenly became uninterested.
They don't have much time to rest, and holding competitions after work is equivalent to working overtime for several hours.
If it's on vacation, it's even worse, and you have to come over to participate.
In contemporary work, what everyone hates the most is to come to the company on the day of vacation.
"Chef, is it mandatory for everyone?" Someone asked.
Wei Qiaoyi shook his head and said: "No, whether to participate or not, it depends on your own willingness, and if you don't want to participate, you won't be reluctant." ”
Everyone looked at each other, and some people were still a little worried in their hearts, for fear that what they said would sound good.
At this time, Gao Dian stood up and said: "Don't worry, if you say it's voluntary, it's really voluntary, and you won't have any other opinions because you didn't participate, so don't worry." ”
When everyone heard this, they discussed it in a whisper for a while.
Gao Dian glanced at Wei Qiaoyi, who nodded and continued, "Is there anything else you want to ask?" ”
Zhou Yongqing said: "Chef, what is the specific process of the competition?" ”
Wei Qiaoyi said: "Everything is simple, make a pastry for each person, and then give it to us to taste." ”
Zhou Yongqing nodded and said, "I understand." ”
This is simple, it's really simple, and it ends directly at once.
However, in this way, it saves a lot of trouble.
"Are there any questions?" Wei Qiaoyi asked again.
Everyone shook their heads.
Wei Qiaoyi said: "Okay, if you are willing to participate later, come to me to register, and if you don't want to participate, just get off work." ”
When everyone heard this, they dispersed, and at this time, Yao Jun asked in a low voice: "Chef, can I not be a judge?" ”
Wei Qiaoyi glanced at Yao Jun and said with a smile: "Forget if Yao Chef is not a judge, I said that everyone is voluntary." ”
"Then I'm not a judge, the chef is embarrassed." Yao Jun said.
Being a judge doesn't really mean much to him, instead of wasting time, it's better to go home and spend more time with his family.
Wei Qiaoyi smiled and nodded.
After a while, some people came to sign up, and some people chose to leave work.
Interestingly, the friends in the Gao Dian group all chose to participate, and some of the others who participated were all younger.
There is a clear distinction between those who participate and those who do not.
Gao Dian looked at the people who signed up and felt a little emotion in his heart.
Not many people choose to participate, and most people choose not to participate.
In fact, the purpose of this competition is nothing else, but to provide a platform for people who are willing to improve their cooking skills.
