Chapter 256 Boss Su, stop talking, I understand (page 13)

Big job?

Su Chen said, "What big job?"

Lu Yongliang was silent for a moment, and after organizing the conversation for a long time, he told Su Chen exactly what he had chatted with Wang Maolin before, and attached his own guesses.

"That is to say, the so-called banquet this time is most likely that. It is normal for a state banquet to be reported to the association, but judging from the information in the invitation letter."

"There are still many hotels that meet the conditions, and the final step of verification is still needed."

Lao Lu leaned over to support the table and stared at Su Chen, "Boss, this is the chance! If you succeed, you will become famous. If you fail, there will be no loss. You can do whatever you want!"

hiss.

Su Chen never expected that I was suddenly asked to take over this thing when I had done nothing!

He still had a question, "The so-called verification, what does it mean to verify?"

Lu Yongliang breathed a sigh of relief.

What he fears most is that Su Chen is not interested in this matter. If that is the case, the efforts of the chefs over the past six months will be basically in vain.

Lu Yongliang said, "It has not been made public at the moment, but there is a guess that it is the membership level. Mr. Maolin also talked about this last time, and the general meaning is that whoever has higher-level members will have more members. It’s easier to get recognition if you have a home. Of course, it all depends on many aspects.”

Membership level should be considered one of the assessment contents, but the decoration standard of the banquet hall, the popularity of the restaurant itself, and the acceptance of the restaurant's food in the hearts of the public are all assessment criteria.

In this way, it is not difficult to understand why when the association first launched the evaluation system, there were some messy standards such as capital verification.

If you don't understand even the most basic assets of a restaurant, how can it become a place to host such a large banquet?

If it is not even well-known among the people, then wouldn't it be a joke in the end to host the state banquet?

At this moment, Su Chen finally understood. Several leaders in the city reminded him time and time again that it was time to renovate a banquet hall. Even Wang Maolin from the association reminded him several times what it meant.

You may have probably guessed what the co-author is, am I the only one with a low level of understanding?

"Mr. Lu, the current situation is that we are still being recommended. If we want to become the final successor, we at least need to go to the association for a new round of verification and evaluation, and compete with other restaurants, and even Including hotels like the State Guesthouse?”

Lu Yongliang nodded, "There are also the Beijing International Hotel where Lao Cui worked before, and other hotels that you probably know."

Huh. Su Chen is a little confused.

How can our small business be compared to other hotels?

But no matter what, Lu Yongliang said something right.

The thing is, if it succeeds, you will gain fame and fortune, if you fail, you will not lose anything. Of course, there is another situation, and that is if you mess up during the banquet.

Of course, this scenario is unlikely.

Seeing Su Chen's silence, Lu Yongliang reminded, "Besides these, there is also very important content."

He has cooked in state hotels before and is quite experienced in this kind of thing. "Let me give you an analogy. For example, if there are leaders of country A among the guests dining this time, then there must be someone in our restaurant." He is very familiar with the various ethnic customs of country A and will never allow any taboo content about that country to appear during the meal.”

"Does that mean we have to cater to each other's tastes in terms of dishes?" Su Chen asked.

"It's not necessary." Lao Lu said slowly, "In terms of taste, generally speaking, we will choose more popular flavors. This is why our Hubei cuisine has not been on the table in recent years. Instead, Huaiyang cuisine and Sichuan cuisine have appeared on the stage. That’s why there are so many times.”

Su Chen nodded.

If that's the case, it would be better. If you really do it to cater to other people's tastes, it would be quite complicated.

But if it's just taboo, then there's no big problem.

After all, I still have a general history of world cuisine in my mind for reference. I can just extract the relevant content and leave it to Ling Shuyu and the others to handle it.

Right now, it's still about the association's evaluation, which is more important.

"That's alright. I'll seize the time to go to the capital in the next few days."

Lao Lu smiled happily, "We old guys can't accompany you to the capital this time. You have to take care of yourself. I'll tell Mingke and let him take care of you there."

Su Chen did not reject Lao Lu's kindness.

After Lu Yongliang left the office, Su Chen was lying on the chair with his mind in a mess. He didn't know what he was thinking about. There was still an unfinished task at hand.

It needs to collect eight restaurants to complete it. Now there are only five. There are still three left and I don’t know when they will be completed.

Why are you in a hurry?

The twentieth day of the twelfth lunar month.

There were still ten days left before the Chinese New Year. Su Chen finally bought a ticket to the capital. This time he went out without anyone accompanying him.

Even the driver is no longer Zhang Jiayi.

"Didn't you say how many days you would stay?"

In the parking lot of the station, Ling Shuyu gave a white thermos cup to Su Chen, "This is the coffee I made in the morning. You can take it with you to drink on the road."

Su Chen was not polite. He opened the small lid and tested the temperature. It was still piping hot. "There are only ten days left to celebrate the New Year. We can't stay for a few days. I have contacted Mr. Maolin a few times in the past few days." Once, he said that it would be enough to do a simple evaluation after going there.”

Ling Shuyu looked forward and was silent for a while, "Where are you going to celebrate the New Year?"

Su Chen was asked suddenly.

Yeah, where the hell am I going to celebrate the New Year?

There doesn't seem to be anywhere to go.

"I don't know. Let's talk about it then."

Opening the car door, a blast of air-conditioning came in, "Go back quickly and be careful on the road."

Ling Shuyu looked at the boss's back through the car window. He put his left hand on the door handle and moved it, but never opened the door. It wasn't until Su Chen's back disappeared around the corner of the parking lot that he leaned on the seat weakly. He let out a breath on his back.

Hope everything goes well

Half a year ago, I took the risk of resigning and decided to join Meili. I went from an annual salary of nearly one million to a small employee with a monthly salary of 3,000. This may be a decision that is dumber than a fool in the eyes of many people.

But judging from today's results, it seems that Ling Shuyu's choice doesn't have much of a problem.

After coming to Meishilai, she did not become a member of the kitchen like she did at the beginning, but gradually found her own position in the work.

If Su Chen is the core figure of Meili, then Ling Shuyu is the helmsman of Meili.

Now that the company has the opportunity to hold a state banquet, for a workaholic like Ling Shuyu, the spiritual satisfaction it brings cannot be measured by money at all.

'come on. '

Ling Shuyu silently repeated the unfinished words in his heart, stepped on the accelerator lightly, and drove away from the station.
