Chapter 42
It's really not a face to be blown away directly.
In the car, Zhen Xiaoqiu frowned and said, "You really guessed it. No one wants to welcome us after the show airs. What should we do now?"
"Let's try other restaurants, Fulin Restaurant, Lee Garden Restaurant, Ah Yi Abalone, Da Fuhao, Jialin Restaurant, Quanji Seafood Restaurant, and there are many more restaurants in Hong Kong."
But they went to a lot of restaurants, all of which were not accepted. It seems that these restaurants have been ventilated, and they are strictly guarded against their programs, and they are not even allowed to enter the hotel door.
The next night, the second episode of the show was broadcast, and the ratings were still very high, but the imperial dining room also suffered from bad luck.
This show is really famous.
Boss Wu smashed another TV.
Picking up the phone again, "A Rong, that Stephen Zhou, I want him to have two legs, two legs!!!"
At the same time, an acquaintance found Jiang Hao.
"Uncle Quan, long time no see." Jiang Hao greeted an old man in a hotel box.
"Ah Xing, come and sit. I came to you this time because I have something to discuss with you." The old man said in a calm tone.
This old man is the vice president of the Hong Kong Catering Association. He has a lot of background. When Stephen Chow was cooking before, he also visited the old man's wharf.
"Uncle Quan, you said."
"You and I have some friendship. Your catering company went bankrupt. It was Ada who did it, and you took revenge on him. These things have nothing to do with other people. I hope you don't spread to other restaurants. You know, restaurants have a bad reputation. Business is not going well."
"I also understand your situation now. You are also very difficult. Several members of our association discussed it and collected a sum of money. You can live with it. As for that show, I don't want to do it, okay?"
The old man said, pushed a check in front of Jiang Hao, Jiang Hao looked at it, the number on it was 500,000.
500,000 was just a drop in the bucket for Stephen Chow before, but it was a huge sum of money for an ordinary person.
"It's not easy for us to create a word of mouth, and it's not easy for someone to smash it. If someone smashes our jobs, we will definitely not be happy. It's like a flies in the room, and we will definitely find a way to kill the flies. Do you think this is Makes sense." Uncle Quan said again, unhurriedly.
Money and threats.
Jiang Hao nodded, "I understand Uncle Quan, I know what to do. By the way, Uncle Quan, if it's a foreigner restaurant show, you don't care."
Uncle Quan laughed: "They are not members of the Hong Kong Catering Association, so of course we can't control them."
Jiang Hao picked up the check, nodded to the old man again, and left the hotel box.
On the way, Jiang Hao transferred the money to his bank card. After returning to Zhen Xiaoqiu's house, he saw that Zhen Xiaoqiu was worried. Seeing Jiang Hao coming back, he said angrily, "Hey, where have you been? Our show is going on. If you can't go down, you can't do anything but run around."
Jiang Hao sat down, looked at Zhen Xiaoqiu and said, "We need to change our thinking for this show."
"How to change."
"Can't we always aim at Chinese food, the world is so big, we have to take the audience to see, such as Indian food, Japanese food, French food, Italian food, etc. Can we do all of these?" Jiang Hao said.
Zhen Xiaoqiu's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Yeah, these are also possible, why didn't I think of it, I'll find someone to do the planning and come up with a few scripts." Zhen Xiaoqiu ran to work again like a chicken blood.
Now that he has money, Jiang Hao can actually not have to do this show, spend money to eat, and taste the world's delicacies. As long as he eats enough, he can naturally complete the task.
But is 500,000 enough? It's really not enough.
Some people will definitely say that 500,000 is not enough for you to eat,
You must know that eating, drinking, prostitution, gambling, and smoking are very expensive. Some top ingredients, such as tiger whip, bear paw, deer lip, and hump, let alone cooking, the materials are very expensive. Some people spend a few One hundred thousand is a very common thing.
When Xiaoqiu came back, he already had a plan book in his hand, and handed it to Jiang Hao, "Look at the script this time, you are still the protagonist."
Jiang Hao read the planning book again, "It's very good, as long as this is done, the ratings will not decrease."
Xiaoqiu was very happy, "Then let's start tomorrow."
"Okay, start."
Jiang Hao paused after speaking, looked at the excited Zhen Xiaoqiu and said, "Xiaoqiu, I'm going to move out."
Zhen Xiaoqiu was taken aback, "Why do you want to move out?" But when she said this, she stopped again, she felt that she was not qualified to stop him, "That's right, you've been sleeping on the sofa for a week."
"Of course, if you let me sleep, I won't leave." Jiang Hao said with a smile.
Xiaoqiu's face turned pale, "You better die."
After all, the two lived under the same roof for several days, going in and out together, and researching programs together. She was already familiar with this kind of life, but when Jiang Hao suddenly left, Zhen Xiaoqiu felt a little bit reluctant.
On the same day, Jiang Hao moved to the rented apartment.
The next day, the "Gourmet Tucao" team set off again, this time to an Indian restaurant called "Basil", which was recommended by Michelin and should be worth looking forward to.
The decoration of the restaurant is very luxurious and grand, like a palace, with Indian music playing, and Indian beauties dancing on the stage.
Jiang Hao and Zhen Xiaoqiu sat down, and the two began to order food. There was a camera next to them to take pictures. The restaurant thought the other party was recording a couple show and didn't care.
"Vegetarian, large plate of grilled prawns, Indian flatbread, home-made yogurt, lamb curry, kidney bean paste, Tandoori roast, Indian spice tea."
Looking at the food on the table, Jiang Hao felt that he really had no appetite, but since he ordered it, let's taste it, there might be surprises.
pity,
not at all.
He tasted every dish, but he didn't get any "Taste of Food" quest value. He was really disappointed. Jiang Hao felt that the show should be ended as soon as possible so that he could escape from here.
"Please call your chef, I want to comment on these dishes." Jiang Hao said to the waiter brother.
"Ok sir."
The waiter brother quickly invited the chef, and the chef's dark face nodded to Jiang Hao and Zhen Xiaoqiu.
Jiang Hao pointed to the food on the table and said, "I think we made a wrong choice. It's really unpalatable. Curry, curry, curry, everything has only one taste."
"And the appearance of these dishes is a disaster. They are lumpy and yellowish and sticky, just like coming out of a stomach. Can't we make them more pleasing to the eye?"
The waiter next to him was dumbfounded. It was the first time he heard a customer criticize their dishes so mercilessly.
Looking at the Indian chef again, with a smile on his face, he couldn't stop nodding.
Zhen Xiaoqiu and Jiang Hao were a little dumbfounded. The chef's self-discipline was high enough, so he didn't get angry. The waiter next to him whispered, "You two, our chef doesn't understand Chinese, do you need me to translate?"
"Pfft~"
Zhen Xiaoqiu couldn't help laughing, Jiang Hao looked embarrassed, and after talking for a long time, it turned out that he was playing the piano to a cow.
And just like that, they ended their Indian restaurant tour.
