After expressing gratitude to several people in Port City, Feng Zhengming and Jiang Chengzhe went to other private rooms to express their gratitude.
The people who came to the other private rooms tonight were also famous bosses in Shanghai.
There were several bosses who had some opinions about Feng Zhengming's fixed menu and not allowing ordering.
But after really eating this meal tonight, these bosses were completely convinced.
"Feng Zhuangyuan is worthy of being Feng Zhuangyuan. It is really a great deal for every dish."
"Feng Zhuangyuan is indeed a big deal, because we offended him before."
"Yes, please don't be surprised by Feng Zhuangyuan. We underestimate your skills."
Of course, Feng Zhengming accepted the polite apology from these bosses with a smile.
"Don't be so polite, you can come to order a table in my store, which shows your recognition of my craftsmanship. I am also very grateful to everyone for coming to support it on New Year's Day tonight.
I hope that if I have the opportunity, I can also get some support from you so that I can do my business well in Shanghai. ”
Naturally, all of these bosses in Shanghai City expressed their support to Feng Zhengming in the future.
There were some overseas friends coming to support them tonight, but they did not sit in the private room.
So Feng Zhengming and Jiang Chengzhe also talked to them specifically.
I expressed my gratitude to these overseas friends.
When we arrived at Feng Zhengming and Jiang Chengzhe, we thanked each other, and finally a table of customers in the corner of the store called them over again.
After a re-introduction, Feng Zhengming and Jiang Chengzhe learned that the other party was from the city of Shanghai.
This really surprised Feng Zhengming and Jiang Chengzhe.
Feng Zhengming felt a little more panic.
"I really don't know that a few of you will be here tonight, we are not preparing for it."
The person in charge smiled and waved his hand: "The top scholar should not be so polite. I think you are not humble and arrogant to the bosses, celebrities and celebrities in Shanghai and Hong Kong City, and you don't have to be humble to us."
"Yes, everyone is a worker. Feng Zhuangyuan, your craft is more worthy of respect."
"You gave up your rest on New Year's Day and presented this delicious food to everyone. We really should thank you."
After politely making excuses, several people also explained their purpose tonight.
"Actually, we specially booked a table tonight. On the one hand, we wanted to see Feng Zhuangyuan's skills, and on the other hand, we wanted to discuss something with Feng Zhuangyuan."
Feng Zhengming nodded: "Please say it with everyone."
The next few people explained some of their requests to Feng Zhengming.
In fact, the local area in Shanghai hopes that Feng Zhengming’s two stores can become the examples of foreigners they created.
In other words, Feng Zhengming and his two stores become representatives of the catering industry in Shanghai.
After listening to the words of the people from Shanghai City, Feng Zhengming probably understood.
Shanghai City is going to give him some identities.
He may be required to participate in some associations in the future and attend some association meetings.
Of course, in return, Feng Zhengming can also receive certain support from Shanghai City.
It is to allow Feng Zhengming's store to be promoted by Shanghai City.
In this regard, Feng Zhengming doesn’t care whether Shanghai City will give it to his store?
Instead, he felt that being able to enter some industry associations in Shanghai should indeed be helpful to him. Perhaps he could promote the establishment of a magazine he made in Qilu in Shanghai.
In particular, we should recommend restaurants and restaurants, and we can carry out some pilot projects in Shanghai.
That recommendation guide is promoted and opened throughout Qilu Province.
It should be a different situation than being promoted and gained wide recognition in Shanghai City.
So Feng Zhengming nodded and agreed to the people who came to Shanghai City tonight.
"Okay, it is indeed our honor to join the industry association in Shanghai. We also hope to represent foreigners and win better preferential treatment for foreigners in Shanghai."
Several leaders in Shanghai looked at each other and then all smiled at Feng Zhengming.
"Yes, as long as Feng Zhuangyuan is willing, we will give more support."
"Yes, good skills like Feng Zhuangyuan are worthy of our promotion."
Feng Zhengming and Jiang Chengzhe expressed their gratitude together.
After a few more talks, these local leaders in Shanghai left first.
After they left, the customers who were dining in the store also finished their meals one after another, paid the money and left one after another.
Wei Ling and Mr. Cai and others walked out of the private room just after they were almost gone.
Meet Feng Zhengming and Jiang Chengzhe again.
Wei Ling smiled: "Thank you two chefs for your hospitality tonight. We are very satisfied with your dishes tonight."
Mr. Cai even more directly: "Do you want some of our photos?"
Wei Ling looked at the two singers: "Yes, the two famous singers in Hong Kong City are here tonight. We should really take a photo together so that we can help your store promote it in the future."
The words of the two singers couldn't help laughing.
Perhaps for Hong Kong City celebrities, others usually ask them to take photos.
Today, I didn’t expect that Feng Zhengming would take the initiative to ask if I would take a photo?
Feng Zhengming couldn't help but smile: "I was thinking about how we would ask for a few photos? I really thank Mr. Wei Ling and Mr. Cai for helping us take a photo."
These words gave everyone a step and made everyone laugh.
After that, Feng Zhengming's camera was taken out, and most people in the entire restaurant participated in the group photo.
Of course, the most classic group photo was Feng Zhengming and Jiang Chengzhe, leading everyone in the kitchen, taking a photo with these stars.
This photo makes everyone in the kitchen even more happy.
Feng Zhengming smiled and reminded everyone.
"You must perform well. I hope you can enlarge this photo in the future and put it in our store. Let others tell you that you are the best employees in my store and can entertain big stars with us."
This was a great encouragement to everyone in the kitchen, and everyone responded and said that they would work hard.
After the New Year's Day dinner, the last big star was sent away. Feng Zhengming and his team cleaned it carefully before closing the door and letting everyone go back to rest.
Feng Zhengming and Jiang Chengzhe called Zhu Xu, Zhang Lei, Sun Decai and Guan Wei to find a place to drink a little wine.
Sun Hai and Xia Hui were excluded and they were asked to go to the two-person world.
Jiang Chengzhe even secretly sent Sun Hai some safety tools.
Feng Zhengming and his team found a quieter bar to drink together.
While drinking, Jiang Chengzhe was a little excited.
"Zhengming, do you know? I am really happy to follow you. You let me realize the decency that a chef should have. You did not let me bow down to receive any guests."
Feng Zhengming saw that Jiang Chengzhe was using alcohol to speak his heart.
"Hahaha, you're drinking too much? What's the point of thanking me? We should have been respected enough."
Jiang Chengzhe nodded: "Yes, we should be respected. We are truly the top chefs in the country, and we are the best chef team in the world."
Jiang Chengzhe's words also resonated with others present, and everyone raised their glasses together.
"Cheer to our world's best team of chefs." "Cheer to us."
After drinking this glass of wine, Jiang Chengzhe continued, "You don't know that we are nominally famous chefs in Hong Kong City, but in fact we are just cooking for those rich people.
In order to make money, many famous chefs are willing to enter the homes of rich people to be private kitchens.
Hahaha, it reminds me of the private kitchens of those merchants in ancient times.
But we are obviously artists, and our cooking food is also a work of art. Why do we have to be a chef for them?
But we have no choice, and without those rich people paying to support us, how can we become famous chefs? ”
Jiang Chengzhe's words express his sadness.
He is obviously a chef with aspirations, but the result is that he can only be judged by others.
But he still has to cater to it and find ways to make the rich willing to spend.
Feng Zhengming can still understand this feeling.
After all, many times, people are really in control.
So this is why Feng Zhengming did not open a high-end restaurant when he arrived in Shanghai, but chose to make fast food that was very close to the general public first?
The newest ⊥Xiao⊥Speak⊥Send⊥Six⊥9⊥Book⊥⊥⊥⊥Back⊥⊥⊥⊥!
It is precisely because fast food may be looked down upon by rich bosses in the first place.
Secondly, fast food can be closer to the market and test your skills through the market.
More importantly, fast food can quickly gain recognition from Feng Zhengming.
Just like his two stores in Shanghai now, they have almost gained recognition from most people.
With the basis of public recognition, Feng Zhengming is not worried about business.
There is no need to be as Jiang Chengzhe said, but to be tempted by those rich people.
Jiang Chengzhe vomited out the bitterness in his heart.
He finally became happy.
"Hahaha, come and have a drink. Tonight we finally let those people know that our store treats everyone equally, and our store is the store that everyone likes, and they don't need their big bosses to hold us."
Feng Zhengming smiled: "This is also because our store is open in Shanghai."
Jiang Chengzhe was stunned when he heard this, and then he couldn't help crying.
"Zhengming, you are deliberately disgusting me, right? You want to tell me that it would not be so easy if you opened in Hong Kong City."
Feng Zhengming was not polite: "Yes, I want to say that, isn't it right?"
Jiang Chengzhe was helpless: "Yes, yes, you're right."
Feng Zhengming no longer attacked Jiang Chengzhe and reached out to pat him.
"Okay, don't think so much. We have proved ourselves. Let us continue to work hard. We must make our store well and make our store bigger step by step.
We must create our own brand, and we become our own bosses. We should not work for any bosses.
We also need to help aspiring chefs so that they can all be treated better and gain greater respect. ”
Jiang Chengzhe and the few people present were excited to raise their wine glasses.
"Yes, we must be the strongest."
After this New Year's Day evening passed.
Next, a storm really broke out in Shanghai.
Feng Zhengming and his shop's New Year's Day dinner was soon known and reported by some people.
Even reporters from TV stations and newspapers started to come to interview.
Feng Zhengming was a little helpless about this.
Every day, the reporter came and blocked the door and couldn't open business.
In desperation, Feng Zhengming had to accept interviews specifically from local TV stations in Shanghai.
I plan to make things clear at once, so that no one will come to me to find me again.
TV stations also attach great importance to this matter.
So Shanghai City TV specially arranged people.
During the preparation time, the business of Feng Zhengming's two stores really broke out once.
Feng Zhengming did not hang out his photo with the Hong Kong City stars.
But he knew that someone in the store had already spread the news.
That's why there are many star-chasing people who think they can meet celebrities in Feng Zhengming's store, and they come to Feng Zhengming's store specifically, wanting to wait for whether they can meet big stars.
Feng Zhengming and the others also felt helpless.
The key is that we can't drive away those people.
Fortunately, Feng Zhengming did not post a photo with the stars, and he asked the waiter not to allow anyone to say that there were any stars who had been there.
In this way, after a short period of crazy passing.
When those star-chasing people felt that they could not see celebrities in Feng Zhengming's store, they gradually dispersed.
Feng Zhengming's store finally returned to the peace of the past.
After calming down some things in the store, Feng Zhengming, Jiang Chengzhe and the chefs in the kitchen went to the TV station to participate in the interview.
Before the interview, the TV station gave some preaching to Feng Zhengming and the others.
It was a pair of lines with them in advance.
Feng Zhengming and Jiang Chengzhe have both experience, so they did not reveal anything wrong.
However, other young chefs still said something they shouldn't say.
Fortunately, during the rehearsal, they were basically corrected.
Feng Zhengming took his chef team to the Shanghai City TV station, which has become a concern for many people.
So after the program was recorded, many people were watching in front of the TV during the broadcast.
Even many people from Qilu, relatives and friends, watch Shanghai City TV.
In the interview, the first thing to do is to ask many people questions that are of concern.
During the New Year’s Day dinner, were there any celebrities coming to the store?
Feng Zhengming replied directly: "There are indeed celebrities coming to the store, but they all booked tables in advance, and did not show any excessive appearance just because they were celebrities.
So I think many people should learn more from celebrities. We are a restaurant. If you don’t want to have a meal, please don’t go to our store to block any celebrities. ”
This statement was said on TV, which naturally caused a lot of sensation.
After the show was broadcast, many people really yelled at Feng Zhengming.
I think Feng Zhengming is a big shot, and I think Feng Zhengming is just a chef.
Feng Zhengming did not respond to this.
As the saying goes, there are many troubles when a person is famous, Feng Zhengming is very clear about him and doesn’t need to pay attention to it.
Because there are more people who support him who will speak for him.
Soon someone began to speak out for Feng Zhengming.
Those who support him say that he is a good chef who truly does not bow down and relies on his skills, and is a well-deserved top pick in the country.
With the support of others, Feng Zhengming's fame gradually increased and he became a more respected chef. (This chapter ends)
