I don't dance with this pot [food]

Qiu Hanyu's rest time happened to be Chen Liang's busiest time. Chen Liang not only had to take care of the meals in the cafeteria, but also had to do the cooking in the kitchen. I really wished I could drink less water, save time and do more.

Originally, the time between 14:17 and [-]:[-] was relatively free, but today there was a birthday party for customers. There were a lot of people invited, and the mouths of ordering food never stopped. I just breathed a sigh of relief when I finished, and a menu was delivered. I am busy. I can't wait to become superhuman.

After 17:[-] is the busy hour. Chen Liang made ginger tea before then. When he was about to add sugar, he was called to do other things. When he came back, he forgot to put sugar and poured ginger tea I put it in the thermos bottle I just bought and put it aside.

It was close to 17 o'clock, and the dinner party left, Chen Liang finally took a breath, and sent Qiu Hanyu a text message during the break.Qiu Hanyu didn't reply for a long time. Seeing the time passed by, he couldn't get away after that, so he could only put the ginger tea at the front desk of the lobby, and sent a text message to tell Qiu Hanyu to get it.

After Qiu Hanyu saw the text message after the meeting, he immediately went to pick it up. He unscrewed the thermos, and the familiar smell of ginger entered his nostrils again, but the imaginary sweetness did not appear.

He drank bland ginger tea as if he was a joke, even ginger tea laughed at him, it is just a beautiful illusion that you drink sweetness at noon, poor you still haven't tasted the taste, find the one that can make it for you person's qualifications.

Qiu Hanyu put down the bottle, he suddenly couldn't remember the taste of the cup of ginger tea at noon, he couldn't remember whether he tasted the sweetness at all, he only thought that ginger tea is actually very bitter and astringent, if there is no sweetness.

At the beginning of each month, the company will convene the upper-level leaders of hotels and shopping malls to summarize the turnover of the previous month and other issues, and propose a marketing plan for this month.

Shopping malls are mainly about rent, management and logistics issues. As long as the customer flow is high, there will be no major problems.The hotel is divided into two aspects, one is housing, because of the unstable passenger flow of housing, it is inevitable that the turnover will fluctuate, and the other is restaurants, which are Chinese food, Western food and cafeteria respectively. The turnover of these three restaurants is The highlight of the meeting.

After the management report of the shopping mall and housing, Yang Ziwei unfolded the report and made a brief report: "Last month, the restaurant launched new dishes, which attracted a group of old customers, and also attracted a batch of new customers through publicity in the mall. Customers, so the turnover increased by 64% year-on-year, which is a new breakthrough..."

Compared with the increase in the performance of the Chinese restaurant, the Western restaurant is not very satisfactory. Manager Song listened to Yang Ziwei's report absently, grasped the report in his hand, and thought about how to express it euphemistically, so as to leave a point for the Western restaurant.

After Yang Ziwei took office, the Chinese restaurant was able to launch a novel planning plan every month, which led to a steady increase in performance. The western restaurant also learned from the planning plan of the Chinese restaurant, but in practice, it failed to achieve the desired results.Western restaurants have not had outstanding performance for a long time. Although the overall turnover is still dominated by western restaurants, if this continues, Chinese restaurants will one day stand on top of them.

The last time Chenliang made a mistake, it was the cafeteria, not the western restaurant that benefited in the end. Coupled with the diversification of food in modern society, the traditional rigid western food can no longer meet the needs of customers. Compared with the expensive steak , Customers prefer to spend money on seafood buffet or Chinese food with various tastes and varieties.

It was the turn of the western restaurant to report. Manager Song bit the bullet and unfolded the report, staring at the negative growth figures above, feeling very complicated: "The turnover of our restaurant this month has dropped by 513% year-on-year. We have also carried out investigations on the occurrence of this problem. Analysis, first of all, the large market environment is sluggish. Customers’ demand for Western food is not as great as it was in the past few years when Western food was popular. Coupled with the variety of food choices, customers generally report that they would rather spend money on self-service and lower the taste level than Eat steaks with high consumption and less meat..."

"En." After listening to Manager Song's report, Qiu Hanyu put his hands on his chin, thought for a while, and took notes in his notebook, "We'll discuss the issue of the western restaurant later, continue."

Arriving at the cafeteria, the manager pointed to the beautiful growth figures on the report, and his smile was as bright as the sunshine outside the window: "Last month, the turnover of our restaurant increased by 872% year-on-year. There are three reasons. First, our restaurant Increased external publicity efforts, and free membership for repeat customers, giving discounts; second, our restaurant eliminated dishes that customers seldom eat. According to market research, we added dishes that customers like, and the dishes are more diverse; The chefs in the restaurant work hard to make delicious food for customers to taste. Here, on behalf of our cafeteria, please allow me to express my gratitude to the chefs in the Chinese and Western restaurants who came to our restaurant to help."

Everyone applauded, Qiu Hanyu was very satisfied with the manager's remarks, and gave warm applause.

The manager then unfolded a magazine, and at the same time showed everyone an online report on the big screen: "Everyone, please read this report, which was written by a very sharp-tongued local food critic Wang Jing." The report was only published on the Internet yesterday, and the magazine was only published today. According to my investigation, this report has attracted a lot of attention in the food industry, and the hit rate is very high. The reason for this report is that some time ago, he brought My wife came to our restaurant to celebrate her birthday..." The manager explained the cause and effect of Chen Liang's mistake, "Thanks to this witty and talented chef, our restaurant was saved from danger. I believe that under the influence of this report, whether it is our restaurant , or Chinese and Western restaurants, the customer flow will increase, and the performance will also increase. I think we can take advantage of this opportunity to expand publicity and enhance the influence of all our restaurants."

When the mistake happened, Qiu Hanyu didn't take it seriously, and he ignored it when he saw that it was handled properly. He didn't expect that this matter would bring such great benefits later, he asked Liu Shao in a low voice: "What's the chef's name? Which restaurant does he belong to? "

Liu Shao secretly rolled his eyes, Mr. Qiu, can't you remember him?He curled his lips and said: "Chen Liang, he is a new employee of the western restaurant, but he is not yet the chef in charge. He is also the person you have been looking for to make braised eggplants before, but you changed his working hours later."

After Liu Shao mentioned this, Qiu Hanyu also remembered: "Chen Liang, I remember, I just tested your memory, yes, your memory is qualified." This cheeky effort is no one, he has thought it over After a while, he asked, "What does Chen Liang do in the western restaurant?"

"Because he's a newcomer, he only does odd jobs like picking lotus, and also goes to the cafeteria to help make pastries." Manager Song replied.

"Yeah." Qiu Hanyu thought of a good plan, but he didn't plan to implement it right away, "Liu Shao, take a look at my itinerary and set a time for me. I want to see Chen Liang, and we'll talk about it later."

Liu Shao immediately checked Qiu Hanyu's full schedule: "President Qiu, you only have time on Friday afternoon this week."

"Then tentatively set it at [-] pm on Friday, and we will change it if there is any change." Qiu Hanyu said to Manager Song, "You inform Chen Liang to come to my office at [-] pm on Friday."

Manager Song: "Okay."

It is a great honor for a new young chef to be interviewed by the boss in person. Even though Manager Song asked everyone not to publicize it in a low-key manner, the news spread quickly.Since Chen Liang's mistake, he has become a well-known little person, and this time he was interviewed in person, and his reputation is even greater.

Some people approached Chen Liang with various purposes out of interest, wanting to hug the golden thigh while it was hot, and some people were curious about Chen Liang's cooking skills, and took the initiative to get close to him, wanting to learn a thing or two.

This brought a lot of troubles to Chen Liang, he just wanted to be a low-key little chef, he didn't want to become a big celebrity, like a zoo animal, surrounded by all kinds of people.

He tried his best to avoid contact with everyone intentionally or unintentionally, and tried every means to decline their dinner invitations. He knew that doing so was not conducive to interpersonal communication, but his contact phobia reminded him that he could not contact too many people.

Friday afternoon at 02:30 is a rare break for busy chefs.After washing the dishes, Chen Liang dried his hands, went into the lounge to rest, and waited for the meeting in half an hour.

However, a phone call disrupted all plans.

Chen Rui's name flashed crazily on the screen of the mobile phone, and the vibration frequency of the mobile phone was as high as crazy. Chen Liang suddenly felt uneasy. His younger brother would never call him during working hours, unless it was an emergency. Condition.

He quickly pressed the answer button, and Chen Rui's weak voice came from the opposite side: "Brother, I..."

Chen Liang's heart twitched: "What's wrong! Slow down."
