Stop pretending, I am the God of Cooking and I am showing off my cards!

Good boy, no wonder the senior brother is so unscrupulous, it turns out that the master still has this identity.

When Guo Jichang announced this, everyone present sat up straight unconsciously, and those who were whispering stopped talking. Everyone held their breath and listened carefully to the executive chairman's decision.

After everything was finished, Shen Baobao asked curiously:

"What about those people just now? Why weren't their honorary titles taken away?"

This girl is quite vindictive.

Dai Jianli said with a smile:

"They are not qualified to receive this title at all. The title of Chinese celebrity chef requires a certain degree of popularity in the circle, and at the same time, they must have participated in the customization of state banquet dishes. The threshold is very high. As for culinary masters, they need to have the ability to lead apprentices. Achievements, these two titles are very rare, and every time they are awarded, it is a big event in the industry."

Lin Xu was a little envious and didn't know when he would get this honor.

The threshold for both titles is quite high.

Let’s not talk about the state banquet. If you don’t work in a few state-titled restaurants, you won’t be able to get in touch with them at all.

And it’s not enough to just participate in the production of the state banquet, you also have to participate in the customization of the dishes.

In other words, we need to develop more suitable state banquet dishes based on the budget and requirements. To be able to do this, you must at least be the head chef at the state banquet.

As for the one who teaches his disciples, that’s even worse.

Lin Xu is only in his twenties now. Even if someone wants to become a disciple, he doesn't have time to teach.

Wait, this kind of honor is earned through hard work and cannot be obtained overnight.

At this time, Cheng Jianshe walked to the stage, took the microphone and said:

"Thank you all my colleagues and friends for coming to my apprenticeship banquet despite your busy schedule. Please take a break now. The banquet will begin soon."

As soon as they heard that the banquet had begun, the crowds of people from all walks of life breathed a sigh of relief and began to digest what they had seen and heard this morning.

First, he became an apprentice, then he was made difficult to cook, and then Qi Zhentao set up his own business... Everything was linked together, making people feel dizzying.

It's finally over now. Everyone is posting on WeChat Moments and chatting in group chats, using their own channels to promote these things to the outside world.

But the previous ones were all about eating melons. The most important thing was Guo Jichang's move to strip the title of the Chinese Cuisine Association on behalf of the Chinese Cuisine Association in the end, which fully demonstrated Diaoyutai's acting style.

Anyone who dares to provoke Diaoyutai will suffer the consequences of retaliation.

Although Guo Jichang acted businesslike on the surface, everyone present was a big boss with a certain status in the circle, and they all knew the purpose of Diaoyutai.

Use the rules to retaliate, and at the same time give a warning to those old men who danced happily before.

As for the rule makers…

Sorry, the Diaoyutai people are still in control.

This kind of behavior and ability clearly demonstrates Diaoyutai's approach of "we don't cause trouble, but we are not afraid of it either."

Some people went to the bathroom, some went out to smoke, and some wandered around to exercise.

Ten minutes later, when Chen Yan and Xiao Jia came in with a camera, today's noon apprenticeship banquet officially began.

Cheng Jianshe, the executive chef of Yanjing Hotel, and Qi Zhentao, the technical chef, expressed their gratitude to the guests, invited everyone to eat and drink well, and constantly asked retired industry seniors to give more advice.

When Ye Lixin, the general manager of the Yanjing Hotel, heard that the matter had been resolved satisfactorily, he also came to the banquet hall and toasted everyone with wine glasses. He kept saying polite words such as "please forgive me for neglecting the distinguished guest".

Everyone knows that this general manager only came out to increase his presence after the matter was resolved.

If it is not resolved, or it is still deadlocked.

He will never come over.

But it was a good idea to come in now. Diaoyutai had just finished showing off his fists, and he hurried over to show off his relationship with Diaoyutai, so that all the old chefs who had wanted to oust him could take a look.

Mr. Ye is not someone to be trifled with.

"I haven't been here for a few days. I feel like Yanjing Restaurant has new dishes."

Chen Yan sat down next to Shen Baobao, and while she was annoyed that she had not come earlier and missed the big show, she raised her chopsticks and quickly tasted all the cold dishes on the table.

Lin Xu said:

"After Chef Cheng took office, he adjusted the staff in the kitchen based on the actual skills of the chefs, and the dishes were also changed and supplemented, making the structure more scientific and healthy."

Qi Zhentao has no objection to such changes.

He is now only responsible for the technical aspect and does not care about management at all.

He still taught the apprentices he had accepted before, who were serious and obedient, but those who had obvious ulterior motives took the opportunity to sever the master-disciple relationship.

This just suits those people's wishes.

You were originally the executive chef, so I called you "Master" so that you could change to a more lucrative position.

Now that he is no longer in charge, it is time for someone else to call him master.

When these people approached Shangcheng Jianshe and hoped to become their apprentices, they were greeted with dismissal notices one after another.

Although the Yanjing Hotel is very large, it cannot accommodate anyone who is idle.

Cheng Jianshe's management style is very similar to that of Xie Baomin and Uncle Gao, who goes straight to the point and doesn't beat around the bush.

If your skills are not good enough and you don't work hard, you will be fired directly.

As for whose apprentice you are and who you are related to, I'm sorry, this is not within the scope of my consideration. I am only responsible for removing impurities in the kitchen and re-adjusting the positions of the previously excluded masters.

It has only been more than a week since Cheng Jianshe took office.

But the kitchen has changed a lot, the chefs' mental outlook has taken on a new look, and the warehouse management is also in good order.

Qi Zhentao also adjusted his mentality and devoted himself to teaching everyone the basics of cooking.

The entire Chinese Ceremony Hall is completely different from the past.

"Teacher Xie, is there any difference between this soy sauce beef and last time?"

Xiao Jia ate for a while, then turned on his camera and pointed it at Xie Baomin who put down his chopsticks.

Well, you can't just eat it. You still have to explore the apprenticeship banquet.

Today, Dai Jianli happened to be sitting on the left side of Xie Baomin, and Lin Xu was sitting on the right side of Xie Baomin. In order to increase the number of clicks, Xiao Jia directly photographed all three of them into the picture.

Wouldn't it be wonderful to have a three-chef ecstasy?

Xie Baomin picked up a piece of beef and tasted it carefully before saying:

"Perhaps because of the change of executive chef, the ratio of marinade has slightly changed from the past. The aftertaste of the beef is softer and the strong aftertaste is gone. It should be because the amount of certain spices has been reduced. .”

Xiao Jia asked:

"What kind of spices are there?"

Lin Xu smiled and wiped his mouth:

"This can't be said. We can't just share someone's business secrets over a meal with a gift."

Dai Jianli tasted it:

"Lao Cheng really has a lot of skills. When I came here last time, I thought the braised beef was perfect enough. Who would have thought that he would come up with another icing on the cake...Does Brother Lin know about this?"

Xie Baomin smiled:

"He must know that. He is already the catering director of Yanjing Hotel. Lao Cheng must give him the nod to adjust the marinade."

Lin Xu didn't deny it. He picked up a piece of beef and put it into his mouth, chewing it twice:

"Chef Cheng only said about adjusting the marinade. I haven't tasted it yet... This beef with soy sauce is really good and tastes better. If Lin Ji didn't already have Duozi beef, I would have to cook the beef with soy sauce." Come to the store.”

The three of them had nothing to do and reviewed the cold dishes on the table.

Not long after, various hot dishes started to be served.

When the braised ginseng was served, Xie Baomin unconsciously showed a smile on his face:

"In my first visit to the store, I ate a disastrous sea cucumber. From then on, I had a dark mind about this dish... Since I caught up today, let's try it again, just to check my homework."

He picked up a sea cucumber and put it on his plate. Instead of eating it directly, he turned it over, exposed the belly of the sea cucumber, let Xiao Jia pat it, and then said:

"It's very clean and well-organized. It's better than last time."

After saying that, he picked it up and took a bite, then touched Lao Dai and Lin Xu:

"Try them all. The sea cucumber is well braised and the soup is just right. Lao Cheng has put a lot of thought into it."

For restaurant chefs, it is much more difficult to improve existing dishes than to add new ones.

Because when adding new dishes, all you have to do is make them. Since they are new, as long as they taste good, they will be very popular.

However, there were too many changes to the original dishes that customers would not accept, too many changes that were too complicated for the employees to make, and too few changes that would not show off their cooking skills. Cheng Jianshe made the adjustments very well this time.

He borrowed some cooking techniques from abalone juice and Liao ginseng, but he didn’t use abalone juice entirely.

Instead, the stock and abalone juice commonly used in the north are combined, allowing the sea cucumber to maintain its original flavor while adding abalone juice.

The sea cucumber is not only delicious, but also has a rich gelatinous texture.

All in all, it was delicious and delicious.

The dishes were served one after another. Xiao Jia was very enterprising. When he was almost done eating, he took a taxi back with his camera in advance.

For people like him who get commissions, if the video is sent back earlier and the later editors can make the finished film earlier, they can get commissions earlier.

With the help of money, the store visit program that was originally twice a week is now almost daily.

Netizens have ridiculed him more than once for being obsessed with making trouble for his peers and unable to extricate himself.

Some chef groups even posted photos of Xie Baomin to the group so that colleagues could see and take notice.

But what about paying attention?

Xie Baomin sometimes visits popular internet celebrity shops, sometimes visits new Chinese restaurants with thousands of restaurants per capita, and occasionally visits street stalls or pancake shops that don’t even have stores.

It's impossible to guard against it.

"Wow, this butter mushroom soup is really perfect. It's silky smooth, fragrant but not greasy. I feel like the dishes at Yanjing Hotel have improved a lot."

Chen Yan finished the last sip of soup in the bowl and wiped her mouth with satisfaction.

It feels so good to feel full.

She raised her hand and rubbed Dundun's big head:

"Young man, why do you look so unhappy? My aunt is going fishing later, will you go? Go and help me catch a big carp, and my aunt will buy you new clothes."

Dundun snorted, curled up into Shen Baobao's arms, and continued to sleep.

For it, it would be better to stay in the store to attend such a banquet. There are no dishes that cats can eat.

As for buying clothes and so on.

If I have money, I don't care about the clothes you buy.

When Chen Yang was about to tease Dundun, Lin Xu said:

"Sister Yan, have you brought your contract? Those old masters who have retired at home all want to show their faces online. It happens to be a free time right now. You can sign it for everyone."

After speaking, he pointed at Huo Yifan:

"First sign Huo Yifan and his father, and try to get the chefs who appear on "The World of Food" to be from our company. Later, when we open a self-media account, we can film food tutorials, shop visits, and even take pictures of apprentices. As long as they want to be famous, we will satisfy them."

When Chen Yan heard this, she no longer cared about bullying Dundun:

"Fortunately, after last time, I put a stack of contracts in the car...wait, I'll get them and start signing."

These contracts are basically printed, and the revenue sharing is industry standard. As long as you fill in your name and stamp it, it will take effect.

Chen Yan hurried out and walked in not long after with a stack of contracts.

At this time, Gou Junguo was gathering in front of Xie Baomin to inquire about his experience in visiting stores. When he saw Chen Yan, he took the initiative to say hello:

"Hello Mr. Chen!"

As soon as Chen Yan saw him, she asked in a low voice:

"Manager Gou, do you have any plans to change jobs? Our company is now preparing to create three top-tier stores. Are you interested in coming?"

Gou Junguo said helplessly:

"The contract I signed has a very high liquidated penalty, and now that my fan base has increased, the company may not necessarily allow me to change jobs."

He now regrets not signing with Happy Media.

Otherwise, if we form the three giants in the store with Lao Xie and Lao Dai, who will dare to bully the three of us in the future?

Chen Yan thought for a while and asked curiously:

"Besides you, does your company have any other high-quality anchors?"

Gou Junguo shook his head. When he signed the contract, he didn't look at the size of the company or the contract. He just wrote his name.

Now he not only has to work at Yanjing Hotel, but also visits the store five times a week.

Otherwise, it is a breach of contract and the company can deduct the remuneration.

"No, my on-site director is quite professional. Last time he said he would switch jobs to Joy Media, but it's a pity that you can't recruit people, so he resigned and went to my company."

"Manager Gou, please add us on WeChat and push the director over. I'll talk to him. By the way, your clause is under the overlord clause... I'll ask the company's legal counsel to contact you later and terminate the contract. Then you can rejoin us. company."

Gou Junguo felt happy and immediately asked:

"I can't take my account away, what should I do?"

"Then don't do it. Then create a new account and repackage it."

Gou Junguo had a troubled look on his face:

"The Yanjing Hotel written on my account, if they continue to use it..."

"That's great. Yanjing Hotel has no shortage of lawyers. As long as they report to Mr. Ye, the legal department of Yanjing Hotel will let them start a new life."

Upon hearing this, Gou Junguo felt relieved.

He took the contract from Chen Yan and asked:

"Mr. Chen came here to sign these old-timers? Let's go, let me introduce you. These old-timers secretly asked me how to become famous online before eating."

In this way, except for some people who left early, no matter the executive chefs of major restaurants or retired master chefs, they all became exclusive anchors signed by Happy Media.

As for how to promote these people, there is no rush, because Chen Yan plans to arrange for them to appear in "The World of Food" first, so that they can adapt to the filming and become familiar with each other.

Then enter the short video platform.

With the foundation on TV and promotion, you can get twice the result with half the effort.

Of course, we can't do this all at once, as it would be too similar. We need to develop a more detailed promotion plan based on the characteristics of the masters.

After signing a round, she came over with a stack of contracts in her arms, with a smile on her face:

“I didn’t expect that when I came for a meal, I could sign up so many chefs. What a great harvest!”

Lin Xu had eaten and drank enough by now. He hugged Dundun and walked out of the banquet hall with a few others. He said goodbye to everyone and drove back to the store.

As soon as he entered the door, Shu Yun greeted him:

"Ah, Dundun is back. Did you eat anything delicious there?"

"Meow~~~~~"

Dundun let out an aggrieved cry. There were too many people, it was too noisy, and there was nothing suitable for cats to eat. It ate a belly of yak jerky given by Dai Jianli.

Although some boiled beef was sent from the kitchen, it was not the part that the little guy liked and he didn't eat much at all.

Lin Xu rubbed its head apologetically:

"I just watched the fun today and didn't let my son eat enough. I'll make you some meat this afternoon that you haven't eaten before so that you can get over your meat addiction. Is that okay?"

Dundun immediately rubbed his head against Lin Xu's hand and called out softly.

Taking advantage of the moment when he was not busy, Lin Xu called Lao Huang:

"Is there any rarer meat available now? It's best if it's something Dundun hasn't eaten before. The little guy didn't have enough for lunch, and he's having a tantrum right now."

Upon hearing this, Lao Huang smiled and said:

"Yes, I just bought a lot of bullfrogs from the market in the suburbs. Since I want to give it a try, how about bullfrog meat? Is that okay?"

Bullfrog?

Don't tell me, Dundun has never eaten this stuff.

Lin Xu said:

"Okay, then you can bring some. We haven't eaten much recently, so we'll cook it with the sausage. If there's any leftover, braise it with the stewed soup and make a spicy braised bullfrog."

The meat of bullfrog is relatively tender and delicious, and has low fat content. It is a favorite ingredient for people who want to lose weight.

The most classic way to eat this ingredient is with sausage.

When made together with the sausage, the sausage absorbs the umami flavor of the bullfrog and becomes even more delicious.

The bullfrog, on the other hand, will become richer in taste under the influence of fat intestines.

The combination of the two ingredients is delicious and delicious, and has the effect of 1+1\u003e2. This is a delicious food that many people cannot refuse.

After hanging up the phone, Lin Xu scratched Dundun's chin and said:

"I'll treat you to a bullfrog in the afternoon. I'll satisfy you then."

"Meow~~~~"

The little guy became happy, and Lin Xu also went upstairs to check on the work of the kitchen today.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Lao Huang walked into the store carrying two large black plastic bags.

After saying hello to Shu Yun, he went upstairs and shouted to Lin Xu who was busy in the kitchen:

"Brother Lin, the bullfrog has been delivered. What are you going to eat today?"

Lin Xu walked out of the kitchen and was surprised when he saw two large bags of bullfrogs:

"Oh, so many?"

"Don't mention it. People think the quality is too good and the cost is too high. I want to buy a lower quality one, but I'm too lazy to send it back. I might as well just take it and forget it... By the way, Brother Lin, I went for a physical examination yesterday..."

"What were the test results?"

This question caused a trace of gloom to flash across Lao Huang's weathered face...
