It can be clearly felt that Chen Wei and Shi Jinbin have different ideas about the future development of Su Ji.

Chen Wei agreed with Feng Yifan's proposal to his father-in-law Su Jinrong that he did not need to make Su Ji bigger, but insisted on taking the business route of a boutique private kitchen with its own characteristics.

And Shi Jinbin thinks differently, he thinks that Feng Yifan should take advantage of his youth, go out for a walk, go to some big hotels to practice, and strive for a higher reputation step by step.

It is obvious that Shi Jinbin's thinking is the path he himself took at the beginning, and it is also the path that the old man Su Quansheng once walked.

Shi Jinbin even said directly in front of everyone: "As long as Yifan is willing, I can take him into the Red Maple Hotel." ”

Entering the Red Maple Hotel, it is a completely different thing.

In the domestic culinary industry, the status of Red Maple Hotel is absolutely extraordinary.

I don't know how many well-known chefs in various places are even willing to enter the Red Maple Hotel as an apprentice, just to get a chance in the Red Maple Hotel.

There is even a rumor in the culinary world that entering the Red Maple Hotel is equivalent to a state banquet reserve.

In fact, this is indeed the case, except for the first state banquet at the beginning, and the state banquet in which the old man Su Quansheng participated.

Over the years, almost all the chef teams of various state banquets in China have been selected from the Red Maple Hotel.

Even one year before, when international conferences were held in China and dignitaries from various countries were needed, the catering was completely handled by the top chef team of Red Maple Hotel.

On the one hand, this is because the Red Maple Hotel has too many state banquet masters.

On the other hand, it is also because the kitchen team of Red Maple Hotel is indeed very powerful.

So Shi Jinbin said very directly: "As long as Yifan is willing, go back with me this time, I can let him enter the Red Maple Hotel, and he doesn't have to start from the bottom to help the cook." ”

Hearing Shi Jinbin say this, Zhuang Daozhong couldn't help but smile and said, "Jin Bin, I can't imagine that a person like you will make an exception for Jinrong's son-in-law one day?"

Shi Jinbin was very calm, and said to Zhuang Daozhong: "Uncle Shi, in fact, you should know very well that Yifan has that strength, he has mastered the essence of Su Ji's various dishes, and he has also studied various domestic cuisines, and even Western food. ”

Zhuang Daozhong also nodded when he heard this: "That's not wrong, Yifan is a relatively versatile chef I've seen so far." ”

In fact, everyone agrees on this point, and it may seem to these old people.

Feng Yifan may not be as good as some chefs who specialize in a certain kind of cooking, but he can really do anything, which shows that his comprehensive strength is very strong.

In the kitchen, everyone knows very well that a certain specialization can never become a master.

Anyone who can be called a master chef is the kind of chef who can really be very versatile.

is like the old man who used to be Su Ji, Su Quansheng.

Perhaps many people will think that Su Quansheng is a Huaiyang chef because he is from Huaicheng.

But in fact, in addition to Huaiyang cuisine, Su Quansheng also has a study in other domestic cuisines, so he can stand out among so many masters at the state banquet.

Later, he became the head chef of the state banquet for a time, and was able to have the power to customize the menu for different banquets of the state banquet.

It's not just about specializing in a certain cuisine, it's about understanding the cooking techniques of various cuisines at home and abroad.

Only then can you arrange different menus at the state banquet when needed.

In Su Jinrong's generation, including Shi Jinbin, who entered the Red Maple Restaurant, in fact, they still prefer to specialize in a certain cuisine, and they are not completely able to easily control the cooking of various dishes.

Therefore, Shi Jinbin is very fond of Feng Yifan, and he wants to help his master's Su Ji cultivate a master chef.

Shi Jinbin said to Su Jinrong seriously: "Jinrong, there are really some opportunities to grasp, you gave up the opportunity at the beginning, I can understand it, but now, you shouldn't want your son-in-law to give up the opportunity again, right?"

Chen Wei opened his mouth at this time and said: "Lao Shi, you should know that if Yifan goes to the Red Maple Hotel, he may have to stay in it for at least many years, so what will Su Ji do during such a time?"

This question stopped Shi Jinbin.

Su Ji is now supported by Feng Yifan.

And from the current business, Feng Yifan does have the ability to make Su Ji's business better.

If Feng Yifan left Su Ji and went to the Red Maple Hotel, he would definitely need to stay in the Red Maple Hotel for many years.

Because even with Shi Jinbin's recommendation, but a big hotel with a lot of masters like the Red Maple Hotel must be ranked internally, and Feng Yifan will not be able to get a high opportunity in a short period of time.

So Feng Yifan stayed up in the Red Maple Hotel for more than ten years, and then participated in one or two state banquets.

For such a long time, wouldn't Su Ji really have to close the door?

The old man Su Quansheng back then did go north like this, and he did make a name for himself, which in turn made Su Ji famous in Su Province for a while.

But when the aura brought by that state banquet gradually recedes, Su Ji will gradually return to an ordinary one.

In the end, Su Ji will become the current situation, just a small restaurant with a heritage in Huaicheng. Even if it weren't for Feng Yifan's attack again, many people in Su Ji Lianhuai City might not know about it.

Chen Wei pointed out this problem directly: "If that's the case, when Yifan is really famous, and then go back to run Su Ji, in fact, Su Ji may have lost its due value, and may even be the same as the master back then, once Yifan is gone, Su Ji will lose his prestige again." ”

After saying this, Chen Wei looked at Su Jinrong and said, "Jinrong, I'm not saying that you did something wrong, in fact, the problem of Su Ji's decline is not you, it is caused by our senior brother leaving back then." ”

Su Jinrong didn't care, because he knew very well what Chen Wei meant.

Su Ji said that he has a centuries-old heritage, but it is only his father's generation that is really well-known, and it can even be said that it is because of his father's fame that Su Ji can become famous.

Chen Wei didn't want Su Ji to be responsible again, so he felt that Su Ji should be run well and the inheritance should be preserved.

"Many time-honored brands in China may eventually disappear into obscurity, or even be gradually forgotten by people, and eventually they can only withdraw from the stage of history.

In fact, there is such a problem, a certain generation has a very famous existence, through his reputation to carry forward the time-honored brand, but once he passes away, the time-honored brand may not be able to maintain that reputation, which is more because of business problems. ”

Chen Wei looked at the senior uncle and the two junior disciples present, and said very directly: "I think that we should still stick to the characteristics of Su Ji, make the signboard of Su Ji, and let others know Su Ji, I think this is also a result that Master has hoped to see for many years." ”

Su Jinrong listened to Chen Wei's words, and his expression became a little excited. He didn't expect that the senior brother would know his father's mind so well.

When he saw his father off, when he was in front of the hospital bed, Su Jinrong once listened to his father's instructions.

At that time, his father's instructions to Su Jinrong were to keep Su Ji and let Su Ji's inheritance continue.

It was also because of his father's instructions that Su Jinrong did not leave Su Ji later.

Although Su Jinrong failed to really carry forward Su Ji and did not make Su Ji more famous, at least Su Jinrong still kept Su Ji and did not insult the old plaque.

Shi Jinbin listened to Chen Wei's words, but still didn't agree so much.

"If you follow what you said, simply run Su Ji, I think it will not only lose Yifan's talent, but also take a long time to really run Su Ji. ”

Speaking of this, Shi Jinbin paused, thought about it and said: "Moreover, maybe in the end, the Su Ji that is run out will become a brand in the hands of others, because when Yifan gets old, he will also face the current dilemma, how to continue to maintain Su Ji's business?"

Chen Wei replied with a serious face: "It's very simple, accept apprentices, lead apprentices, and let the apprentices continue to stick to and inherit the old plaque of Su Ji." ”

Shi Jinbin was a little surprised and asked, "In that case, wouldn't Su Ji still fall into the hands of others after all?"

Chen Wei shook his head and said, "Senior brother, why are you still confined to this kind of portal family prejudice until now?"

Without waiting for Shi Jinbin to speak, Chen Wei then asked, "Let me ask you, is the Tan family's cooking now being made by the Tan family?"

was asked like this, Shi Jinbin was speechless for a moment.

Chen Wei looked at Su Jinrong again: "Jinrong, I'm not saying that Su Ji must be in the hands of others, I don't think I really need to care about what the family portal is, as long as the essence of Su Ji can be inherited, then it can be called Su Ji cuisine, and the future Su Ji will still be the current Su Ji."

This is also the advantage of running a private kitchen restaurant, that is, we specialize in Su Kee's dishes, and do not belong to any cuisine or faction, just Su Kee's uniqueness. ”

Chen Wei's remarks moved Su Jinrong very much, and he had similar thoughts after this period of time.

Especially after his son-in-law Feng Yifan came back, he also told Su Jinrong a similar plan.

Su Jinrong still agrees with this plan.

Because in this way, the uniqueness of Su Kee cuisine can be better maintained, and it can really beat the reputation of Su Kee, rather than simply making a certain generation of Su Kee chefs famous.

When Shi Jinbin saw Su Jinrong's appearance, he had already seen that he should be more in favor of such a plan.

Zhuang Daozhong, who had not spoken at this time, said: "In fact, Chen Wei and Jin Bin's plans are feasible, but I think the two can be combined." ”

The three brothers all looked at Uncle Shi together, wanting to hear how Uncle Shi's so-called synthesis is?

Zhuang Daozhong continued: "Yifan is still young now, and there are some things that still need to be seen, but you don't need to enter the Red Maple Restaurant, but you can participate in the promotion of some dishes to enhance your popularity." ”

After a pause, Zhuang Daozhong said: "Su Ji's operation, I also agree with Yifan's plan, to focus on private kitchen restaurants, to make high-quality dishes, unique to Su Ji's boutique dishes, there is no need to make Su Ji a big hotel, maintain this exquisiteness, Su Ji should be able to develop better." ”

After listening to Uncle Shi's words, Shi Jinbin thought for a while and said, "Uncle Shi, what you said, do you want to participate in this Chinese cuisine cooking competition when you participate in some dish promotion?"

Zhuang Daozhong shook his head: "No, Yifan doesn't have to participate in that competition, Yifan's strength to participate in that is a bit of a bully, I think that this time Chinese cuisine is an opportunity, I think Yifan should restore a banquet menu that belongs to Su Ji and represent Su Ji to participate in the menu competition of Chinese cuisine." ”

These words made Chen Wei and Shi Jinbin stunned, and even an incredible look appeared on their faces.

Because of the two brothers, they have never heard of it, Su Ji has his own banquet menu.

So it's really a little strange for Uncle Shi to say that the banquet menu will be resumed?

Zhuang Daozhong saw that the two of them were very strange, looked at Su Jinrong on the side, and with Su Jinrong nodding in agreement, he told the existence of the "Su Banquet".

After listening to Uncle Shi's introduction, Chen Wei and Shi Jinbin were really even more surprised.

Su Zaoyan, this is really the first time I have heard of these two.

Shi Jinbin looked at Su Jinrong and asked, "Does Su Ji really have such a banquet?"

Su Jinrong nodded: "Yes, there used to be, now, only left, menu name, no, recipe." ”

Chen Wei's face was a little ugly and said, "If that's the case, I'm afraid it's not so easy for that banquet to be restored." ”

Zhuang Daozhong nodded: "It's really not easy, but fortunately, there is still plenty of time, and the selection of Chinese cuisine banquets will take at least a year of screening, and it may take longer to finalize." ”

Shi Jinbin thought for a while and said, "If that's the case, then there is more time left for Yifan." ”

Chen Wei was still a little worried: "But even so, it doesn't seem to be an easy thing to restore a banquet with only names, right?"

Shi Jinbin also nodded heavily with a look of embarrassment.

Zhuang Daozhong said: "Don't be discouraged, I actually found out some relevant information, otherwise I wouldn't have come to mention this matter to Jinrong, but some of the rest may still need to be studied by Yifan." ”

Shi Jinbin thought about it seriously and said: "If it can really be restored, it will definitely make Su Ji famous." ”

Chen Wei also said: "Yes, and even if it is not selected into the menu of Chinese cuisine, as long as you participate in the selection, you can later use it as the main hit of Su Kee and become Su Kee's signature." ”

Shi Jinbin said to Su Jinrong: "Jinrong, don't worry, I will definitely help you and Yifan together." ”

Chen Wei also said: "Well, I will also help, everyone will work together." ”

Su Jinrong heard the promise of the two senior brothers, and also smiled: "Well, thank you, senior brother." ”

Zhuang Daozhong was still very relieved when he saw this scene.

Raising his head and glancing at Su Quansheng's portrait, Zhuang Daozhong thought to himself: "Old brother, this should be the scene you are most willing to see, right? I believe that these disciples of yours will make Su Ji better."

After some discussion, several old people reached a relatively unified idea.

Su Kee smuggled the boutique business model of the kitchen restaurant, and then it was necessary to restore the "Su Banquet", so as to make Su Ji truly famous and make Su Ji truly famous in the world.
