Life is a Game

Because of Zhang Weiyu's shocking remarks in the wechat group last night, Jiang Feng couldn't help but stare at the glasses on the bridge of his nose when he was in the kitchen the next day.

Zhang Weiyu was cutting potatoes.

Jiang Feng stared at his glasses.

Zhang Weiyu was chopping radishes.

Jiang Feng stared at his glasses.

Zhang Weiyu is cutting peppers.

Jiang Feng stared at his glasses.

Zhang Weiyu is in...

Zhang Weiyu was so stared at by Jiang Feng that he couldn't cut it anymore, he couldn't bear it and said: "Ask whatever you want."

Everyone in the back kitchen looked at Zhang Weiyu in unison.

"Your glasses..."

"I got a new pair later on." Zhang Weiyu said, "How could I keep wearing the glasses that fell into...that thing on the bridge of my nose? Am I crazy?"

"Why not?" Sang Ming looked confused, "Wouldn't it be good to just wash, scrub, and soak?"

Jiang Feng:? ? ?

Everyone:? ? ?

"You wouldn't..." Han Yigu silently moved two steps to the side, wanting to stay away from Sang Ming.

"That bottle of body lotion costs more than 600 yuan, and it's unopened. I sent it back to my sister this morning." Sang Ming said.

Jiang Feng:? ? ?

I hope your sister will never be unaware of what happened to that bottle of body lotion.

Otherwise, she may take the high-speed train to beat you.

Jiang Feng was very busy this morning.

Before he opened Tai Fung House, he had many ambitions.

For example, knock down all the dating agencies in Peiping within three years, or make Li Hongzhang's chowder bigger and stronger, and make it a high-profit signature dish.

The cruel reality told him that he was daydreaming.

It is not so easy for a high-end Chinese restaurant to gain a foothold in Beiping City, the center of the universe.

Diners are always picky and savvy, busy and idle. They will be so busy that they have no time to eat or instant noodles and can only eat two breads to fill their stomachs, but they will be so free that they will queue for hours to buy a cup of expensive milk tea just to take pictures and post on Moments.

In Beiping City, even if it is a well-known century-old restaurant, as long as the chef's level goes down, picky diners will stop patronizing and go to new restaurants with better food taste and higher cost performance.

The main mission has been silent since Xue Shaoheng ordered a large table of buff dishes that day, and it has always been (3/10), and the remaining 7 predestined people have not appeared for a long time.

Jiang Feng also discovered that Taifeng Restaurant has regular customers and has a good online and offline reputation. This does not mean that those customers think that Taifeng Restaurant is the number one restaurant in the world.

If you want to complete the main task, you have to rely on buff dishes.

This kind of main task with the color of the second class naturally has to be completed with buff dishes that also have the color of the second class.

With Jiang Feng's current level of cooking skills, it is difficult to conquer diners simply by taste. If he is not strong enough, he can only use tricks to rely on publicity.

As long as Xu Cheng mentioned a word in "Zhiwei", a large number of loyal followers of "Zhiwei" would flock to try Jiang Feng's buff dishes. And as long as 7 of these diners were touched by Jiang Feng's buff dishes to the softest memory in their hearts, and they came up with the idea that Taifeng Restaurant is the number one restaurant in the world, the task would be completed.

This is the time to highlight the importance of publicity. It can't be the propaganda of ordinary tabloids, nor can it be the propaganda of those third-rate gourmet magazines. It must be the promotion of first-class gourmet magazines or even top gourmet magazines.

For example——

"Knowing the Taste"

Jiang Feng continued to lower his head and cut the ingredients in his hand.

...

Xu Cheng is writing a manuscript at home.

He just came back from Hangzhou, and he is currently writing the manuscript of Gu Li's interview.

Originally, he had finished writing the manuscript of Coulee’s special interview when he was in Hangzhou, but he felt dissatisfied after he came back, so he planned to rewrite it.

As a well-known ace pigeon in the industry, the longer Xu Cheng pigeons, the higher his work efficiency will be.

Originally, he planned to go to Hangzhou to finish the interview with Gu Li two days after the opening of Taifeng Building, and then return to Beiping to do all the interviews with Jiang Feng, Zhang Guanghang and Wu Minqi at once. By the way, I can also interview Ji Xue and the two old men Jiang, so that the manuscript can be finished before July. "Zhiwei" will be published on time in early August. This year's "Zhiwei" will evolve from an annual publication to a semi-annual publication .

But this is just preparation, and the reason why preparation is always just preparation is because the plan cannot keep up with the changes.

On the third day of Taifeng Restaurant's opening, Sun Maocai launched a new dish.

Xu Cheng immediately canceled his plan to go to Hangzhou to interview Gu Li, and instead went to Hong Kong City. After tasting Sun Maocai's new dishes, he stayed in Hong Kong City to write the manuscript of the new dishes.

While writing the manuscript, Xu Cheng also talked about some business matters. After all, he is a businessman, and he still has tens of billions of property waiting for him to manage.

Then he stopped by to visit Sun Guanyun in Jubaolou. Originally, he wanted to try his luck to see if he could get a piece of Eight Treasure Chestnut Pigeon. He had been rejected many times before, and this time he didn't hug too much. hope.

Unexpectedly, this time Sun Guanyun was unexpectedly easy to talk, he not only got one copy, he got three!

One serving a day for three consecutive days greatly satisfied his picky tongue.

When he was in the Healthy Stir-fry Restaurant, he felt that Sun Guanyun’s Babao Chestnut was a bit different from before, but because he only tasted it at that time, and he hadn’t eaten the Babao Chestnut made by Sun Guanyun for many years Xiangge, so just doubt not sure.

After eating for three consecutive days this time, Xu Cheng confirmed his thoughts, and Sun Guanyun improved the Eight Treasure Chestnut Pigeon, returning to the basics and improving to a higher level.

So Xu Cheng stayed in FJ to finish writing the manuscript of Babao Chestnut Pigeon before returning to Peiping.

Of course, it was still July when he returned to Peking.

And did not go to Hangzhou to do an interview with Coulee.

Xu Cheng felt that he had worked very hard, and decided to continue to reward himself by skipping tickets.

After Xu Cheng rewarded himself by taking turns eating in various restaurants in Beiping for more than half a month, he finally took the time to go to Hangzhou to solve Gu Li's interview, and only then did he rewrite the manuscript at home.

By the way, Xu Cheng loves to buy houses very much. Basically, wherever there is good food in the whole country and even the world, his houses are wanted. Every time he finishes tasting a delicacy and decides to write it in the "Zhiwei" magazine, he will go back to his home and leave when he finishes writing.

After all, he is the ace pigeon. If he doesn't force himself, "Zhiwei" may have to skip tickets forever.

Food magazines are hard to do these days. There are only a few well-known food critics, and they are basically rich and leisurely winners like Xu Cheng. The manuscripts of these food critics have long since bounced and went bankrupt.

In today's food magazines, if you don't write a little food-related story, dig deep into the tears and sadness, happiness and happiness behind the food, or reflect a city's cultural landscape and historical heritage from the perspective of food, history, and the city, I am ashamed to say myself It's a gourmet magazine.

Xu Cheng used to be dismissive of these gourmet magazines, but "Zhiwei" is a well-known hardcore gourmet magazine, which only talks about food, and doesn't talk about anything else.

Until "Zhiwei" changed from a monthly to a quarterly, from a quarterly to a semi-annual, and from a semi-annual to an annual, Xu Cheng found that those methods of writing manuscripts that he had dismissed were actually very easy to lose words.

So Xu Cheng changed, and he began to be good at discovering the stories behind the food.

But this time the manuscript is particularly difficult to write, mainly because Gu Li is not good at words, no matter how wonderful, inspirational, touching and suitable for filming TV dramas, the stories that come out of his mouth make people feel ordinary and seem to have no bright spots. The story doesn't seem to have much to write about either.

So Xu Chengcai was going to rewrite the manuscript.

Xu Cheng was a little distressed.

He wanted to skip the ticket again.

There was a knock on the door.

"Come in."

"Mr. Xu, Editor-in-Chief Jiang asked you when you plan to go to Taifeng Building. His side is ready." Xu Cheng's assistant said.

"what time is it now?"

"11:09, our appointment time is 12:30." The assistant said.

Xu Cheng threw the pen away, looked at the manuscript with only a few lines written, and felt——

Forget it, the original manuscript is quite good, there is no need to rewrite it, it would be a waste of time to rewrite it, why not go to dinner.

"How many people did Editor-in-Chief Jiang bring?" Xu Cheng asked.

"A total of 9 people, 3 photographers, 2 photographer assistants, editor-in-chief Jiang, deputy editor-in-chief Wang, Professor Ye Shi from Kyoto University, and an intern." The assistant said.

"Interns? Who brought the interns here?" Xu Cheng was not angry but just felt strange. He knew his employees very well, and their abilities were definitely different, and they would not see the distinction between public and private , since the interns are brought here, there must be a reason for bringing them here.

"Editor Jiang brought it here from Shanghai on a special trip. Didn't you say a few years ago that you wanted to train food critics who could take over your class? He said he brought this intern here to show you. She has a very good sense of taste. Sensitive, he is a good embryo to be a food critic." The assistant said.

Xu Cheng nodded: "You tell Editor-in-Chief Jiang to leave now, and in five minutes, call President Han to ask him to leave too."

It is impossible for Xu Cheng to write articles for "Zhiwei" forever. As he gets older, he is less and less willing to travel outside. "Zhiwei" was founded by him, and he also carried it forward. He doesn't want to stop this magazine, and he doesn't want to destroy it, so he is going to train new, talented food critics who can reach the same height as him. Home.

Belongs to the food critic of "Zhiwei".

I just hope that the intern brought by Editor-in-Chief Jiang this time will not disappoint him.

To cultivate an excellent food critic, it takes time, a lot of manpower, material resources, and financial resources, and Xu Chengdu has all of them.

What he lacks is talent, and what he lacks is someone who has the talent to become a food critic.

Even if the people he trains in the end will not become the exclusive food critics of "Zhiwei", he is willing.

The circle and life of a top food critic is too lonely, he needs some newcomers to break this loneliness.

Otherwise, the world would be boring if there are thousands of horses but not enough horses.
