Chapter 1045 The 2nd Internet Celebrity
"Mr. Yuan, Boss Yuan." The man in a straight suit held a briefcase under his arm, walked quickly to Yuan Zhou, and said immediately.
Yuanzhou stood still and said nothing.
"Boss Yuan, Mr. Yuan, it's like this..." Halfway through the man's words, Yuan Zhou spoke.
"Just give him a title." Yuan Zhou reminded.
"Oh, ok, hello, Boss Yuan, I am the head of the public relations department of Shengshi Group, Zhang Xiao. Boss Yuan, just call me Xiao Zhang." The man in a straight suit introduced seriously.
"Xiao Zhang." Yuan Zhou nodded.
"I don't seem to recognize Shengshi Group. Could it be from some magazine?" Yuan Zhou guessed calmly.
"Um, can I take the liberty of asking you to sit in the coffee shop next to me?" Zhang Xiao stretched out his hand to motion to a coffee shop diagonally opposite Yuan Zhou.
Yuan Zhou knew about that cafe, but had never been there because it was a cat-themed cafe that housed many varieties of cats.
And those cats sleep lazily at the window every day, stretching their soft bodies and waiting for cat lovers to come in and pet their cats.
The business of this cat cafe is very good, and it is quiet, which is indeed suitable for talking about things, but Yuan Zhou is a chef.
Even when he petted a cat or a dog, the hair would stick to his body. Yuanzhou was very restrained in even making noodle soup, and only touched his head occasionally. The cats in that store were fine after going there.
"The most important thing is that cat sucking is addictive, so you can't go." Yuan Zhou suddenly became alert and frowned at Zhang Xiao.
"Sorry, I was rude, can I come in and talk?" Seeing Yuan Zhou's dissatisfaction, Zhang Xiao immediately moved to another place.
"This store is not open yet." Yuan Zhou said equally.
"Okay, if Boss Yuan doesn't mind, then I'll tell you why I'm here." Zhang Xiao kept smiling, feeling MMP in his heart.
"Please tell me," Yuan Zhou said.
"That's right, our company is planning to hold a food carnival recently, and we would like to invite Boss Yuan and your shop to participate." Zhang Xiao stood in front of Yuan Zhou and said his purpose of visit seriously.
"This food carnival will invite many famous restaurants in Sichuan to participate. Boss Yuan, you have recently been awarded the title of Sichuan Cuisine Demonstration Store, so you are most suitable to be the main guest. I hope you can agree.
"Zhang Xiao looked at Yuan Zhou sincerely.
Yuan Zhou frowned slightly and was about to refuse, but before the words came out, Zhang Xiao continued to speak.
"By the way, our company has prepared an invitation fee of two million yuan for the main guest, and our company will also provide all the ingredients used." Zhang Xiao said with a smile.
Yuanzhou considers himself not a person who loves money, but since he invites you so sincerely, it doesn't seem to be a big deal. There are no new dishes in the store recently, and it's not busy, right?
Yuan Zhou said with a natural expression: "In this case, it would be..."
But before he finished speaking, Yuan Zhou's words took a turn when the system made a loud noise.
The words popped up in the system's mind: "Food Carnival, the system advises the host not to participate."
"I can't agree, I'm sorry." Yuan Zhou said seriously with a cold face.
"Ah?" Zhang Xiao looked confused.
"Didn't Boss Yuan just agree? I see that his expression has softened, so how could he refuse?" Zhang Xiao looked puzzled.
"I'm going to practice my cooking skills seriously recently, but I really don't have time." Yuan Zhou explained in a neutral tone.
"Aren't you going to think about it again?" Zhang Xiao asked without giving up.
"Cooking is the right path. I won't consider anything that will affect your culinary studies." Yuan Zhou said directly.
"Uh..." Zhang Xiao didn't know what to say and paused.
"It's time to practice carving, so I won't send you far." After Yuan Zhou said this, he turned around and returned to his shop.
Zhang Xiao watched Yuan Zhou turn around and couldn't help but sigh.
"Hey, Boss Yuan is really hard to invite." Zhang Xiao said with emotion.
"It is said on the Internet that Boss Yuan is the most hermit chef. When I saw him today, he lived up to his reputation."
Before Zhang Xiao came, he knew that Yuan Zhou would be difficult to invite, and he was prepared for failure and had all the alternative plans in place.
Although he saved a million, Zhang Xiao was still a little disappointed because he really failed. He could only slowly walk out of the small street with his briefcase.
Yes, the invitation amount is different for each person. Yuan Zhou's invitation is two million, while the alternative is one million. After all, the values are different.
Yuan Zhou, who turned around on the other side, had a playful expression on his face.
"System, you said you would not interfere with my affairs. You have changed. You are no longer the system you were before. Please tell me what compensation you are going to give me to make up for my pain." Yuan Zhou said.
Yes, Yuanzhou was ready to agree just now, but the system made a cross and reminded him that it was recommended not to participate. Out of trust in the system, Yuanzhou refused.
System text: "Because this system comes from a galaxy you don't know. It was invented by the famous doctor Dr. A to allow human beings to obtain higher spiritual enjoyment. It was a system that wandered to the earth 2,500 years ago."
"Haha, let's talk human talk." Yuan Zhou sneered and said directly.
The system now reads: "The food carnival date is at least a week away, and the host's turnover is more than two million in one week."
"Yes, if you put it this way, did I lose money?" Yuan Zhou suddenly realized that he almost lost money.
system:"……"
"That's how I understand it. It seems like it is indeed the case." Yuan Zhou touched his chin and thought seriously.
The system was silent for a long time.
[Task reminder]: Internet celebrity dish task, the second Internet celebrity dish is about to be completed, please pay attention to the host.
"Ah? What's going on?" Yuan Zhou's attention was immediately diverted to the task.
The system now reads: "The host can query by himself."
"Having half-spoken words is the worst thing to do." Yuan Zhou said, taking out his cell phone to check.
In fact, once the heat of two million was over, Yuan Zhou calmed down and realized that he really couldn't accept this event, let alone the money issue.
He only said that if he took a week off to attend the food festival, I was afraid that this street would be demolished by diners when Yuan Zhou came back. This was one of them.
The second thing is that such an activity means nothing to him. It's definitely not because the weekly turnover is more than two million, but because he went to other people's food stalls and there were still people interested.
"For the survival of others, I'd better open my own store." Yuan Zhou murmured to himself.
Judging from Yuan Zhou's current store turnover, it is definitely less than two million per week. Besides, he is a man with a gold card now, and he doesn't care about two million.
"However, it's a bit of a pity to lose two million." Yuan Zhou said calmly, covering his heart that didn't hurt at all.
"Speaking of which, there seems to be no appearance fee for the Sino-Japanese Chef Exchange Meeting." Yuan Zhou thought about the few events he participated in.
"By the way, what's the second internet celebrity dish?" Yuan Zhou looked at the pages on his phone with a puzzled look on his face.
"System, you are not ignoring me. There is no mention of Internet celebrity dishes on the Internet." Yuan Zhou said suspiciously after checking several food forums.
However, the system showed no response to Yuan Zhou's questions.
"Is this really a lie?" Yuan Zhou checked his phone again.
"The only ones who compliment me on my cooking skills, um, and my handsomeness, I admit these two points." Yuan Zhou looked at it carefully again and came to this conclusion.
"Forget it, let's finish the carving first. We still have the prints of Along the River During the Qingming Festival to be engraved." Yuan Zhou closed his phone and started to prepare for carving.
