Chapter 384 Hot

Gu Zheng and the driver basically finished the four dishes. The driver ate more than Gu Zheng. After all, the food here was really good.

The four dishes sound like a lot, but in fact, the portions are just larger than the fish, there are about ten chicken feet, one piece of Dongpo pork, and the shrimp custard is also a small pot, so it doesn't weigh down the stomach.

After finishing all the dishes, the driver also ate two bowls of rice. By the end of the meal, he felt embarrassed.

"Boss, I'm sorry, the food here is so delicious, I couldn't hold it back!"

I had eaten a bowl of rice noodles before, but now I had eaten so much, it was like eating rice. Besides, this meal was not cheap. The driver hurriedly explained to Gu Zheng.

"It's okay, I can't finish it if you don't eat it, so it won't be wasted!"

Gu Zheng smiled slightly, and the waiter came quickly. Gu Zheng paid the bill. The meal and tea totaled more than 600. If calculated per capita, it was more than 300.

However, what they ate were all special dishes, which were relatively expensive. If it were other people, two people wouldn't be able to eat that much, but it was still OK per person. The most important thing is that the taste here is very good.

"Can I come to your kitchen?"

After paying the bill, Gu Zheng suddenly asked, "The chef did a good job. Although there were still some minor flaws, he was already very good. In particular, some of his creative ideas were very good, which aroused Gu Zheng's curiosity."

In addition, this time the manuscript is also available, Gu Zheng decided to write it here. Regardless of taste and creativity, there is a lot worth writing here.

"Sir, don't worry, our food here is guaranteed to be clean!"

The waiter was a little surprised and hurriedly explained. Gu Zheng smiled and shook his head: "I'm not doubting your hygiene, but I'm interested in the chef who makes these dishes. Can I get to know him?"

"That's right, then I have to ask first!"

The waiter nodded. He really thought that Gu Zheng was suspicious of hygiene issues, so he explained. But even if he was suspicious, it was okay to go to the kitchen, but if he wanted to get to know the chef, he had to say hello in advance.

Soon the waiter returned and the chef agreed.

The kitchen here is not in the back, but in the front. They used an open space in the front to build a kitchen, but the kitchen was closed, so the guests didn't know it.

The kitchen is not big, but it is neatly arranged. There are several chefs working in it. There are five people in total. These five people all have one characteristic, that is, they are young.

The oldest of the five is less than thirty years old.

"This is our chef!"

The waiter brought Gu Zheng to a young man. This young man was only twenty-four or five years old. He looked about the same age as Gu Zheng. Gu Zheng did not expect that he was the chef.

"Gu, Master Gu!"

The young chef also raised his head and suddenly froze there, stammering and shouting. Several other chefs also turned around and were stunned when they saw Gu Zheng.

"You know me?"

Gu Zheng was a little surprised to be recognized by someone. He didn't wear sunglasses at this moment. It was not good to wear sunglasses when meeting people.

"Yes, I know you. I participated in the Hangzhou Food Competition with you, but I didn't make it to the end!"

The young chef shouted excitedly, and wanted to reach out and shake Gu Zheng's hand, but found that his hand was wet, and he hurriedly wiped it clean on his body, but felt that it was very impolite, and he froze in embarrassment.

"I see!"

Gu Zheng suddenly realized that this young chef also participated in the Hangzhou Food Competition, so he knew him, and he didn't know where the young man ended up. Anyway, he was definitely not eliminated in the first round, and his level was not that good.

"I entered the semi-finals, but those directly selected contestants were too good. I was eliminated after that. You and I are not in the same venue!"

The young chef hurriedly explained that his cooking skills were indeed good. Last time he and Gu Zheng entered the semi-finals, which was the fourth round. Unfortunately, he was eliminated in the end.

But this also proves that his level is indeed not bad.

Although he was eliminated, he was not discouraged. Especially after seeing Gu compete for the championship, it gave him great encouragement. In addition, he was also one of the people who supported Gu Zheng. He was among the people waiting in the square.

So he recognized Gu Zheng at a glance, Gu Zheng was his idol.

"Master Gu, why are you here? Just now, was it you who said you wanted to know me just now?"

The young chef then remembered that the waiter had asked him before and said that there was a customer who wanted to meet him. At that time, he didn't think much about it. He thought it was a customer who simply liked his food. He never expected that this person was Gu Zheng.

Gu Zheng smiled and nodded, and talked about the pros and cons of his food.

The advantages were all mentioned, and some shortcomings were also named. The young chef listened carefully. After Gu Zheng finished speaking, he took a piece of paper and wrote it down. This is a young chef with a very good attitude.

The chef who made these dishes was actually his fan. This surprised Gu Zheng, but he was also more pleased. In this way, this article should be written.

After chatting for a while and exchanging contact information, Gu Zheng left.

During the whole process, the driver's eyes widened. He was not stupid. After the young chef told him a few times, he understood who Gu Zheng was. He secretly took out his mobile phone to search for videos and found Gu Zheng, the champion of the National Food Competition. Sure enough, He looked exactly like his guest.

This discovery made him feel dizzy.

Especially when he remembered that in the beginning, he took Gu Zheng to eat Golden Dragon Feitian and said it was the most authentic one. Thinking about it now, he blushed and wished he could find a crack in the ground to crawl in.

In Zhengzong, there is no Zhengzong like him.

"Gu, Mr. Gu!"

After leaving the door, the driver stammered something. He really didn't recognize Gu Zheng. If he did, it would be impossible to say what he said before.

"It's okay, just take me to the station. Thank you very much for taking me to eat some very good food today!"

Gu Zheng smiled slightly. He knew what the driver wanted to say and didn't let him say it. His mission to Hangzhou was completed. He just went back and wrote the manuscript.

Gu Zheng doesn’t know if anyone else has written about this small shop, but at least he knows that no one on their food channel has written about it. As long as no one there writes about it, that’s fine.

In fact, many people will write about and promote a delicious restaurant, just like Guzheng's Guji Chicken Blood Soup. Their food channel alone has more than a dozen related articles, and nationwide, there are more.

For Gu Zheng, as long as they don't have a channel, he can write and publish without him.

The manuscript was written very quickly. Gu Zheng wrote it the next day after returning to Shanghai. The manuscript was basically full of praise, and of course the shortcomings were also mentioned. Gu Zheng's temper has always been like this, good is good, bad is bad. No favoritism.

However, because of his admiration for the young chef, he wrote about the shortcomings in general terms, which highlighted the advantages.

Gu Zheng turned in the manuscript so quickly, which made Mumu very happy. It was published on the same day as the manuscript, and it made headlines during the prime time slot at 5 p.m.

Although Gu Zheng writes about the food in Hangzhou, the impact is not great. After all, Hangzhou is very close to Shanghai, and many readers of their website are from Hangzhou.

Mumu has been staring at Gu Zheng's manuscript since it was released.

As they had guessed, Gu Zheng's article immediately attracted a lot of attention. After all, it was the first food review article in which Gu Zheng won the national championship. Many old readers of the website knew Gu Zheng's identity.

Gu Zheng spoke highly of a small shop in Hangzhou, which made many people curious.

Some of the readers who are from Hangzhou, and even those who have been to that small shop, all agree below that the taste of that small shop is indeed good, but the price is a little higher, but the food is really delicious.

The number of clicks and comments on Gu Zheng's article have been rising all the way, knocking other food review articles out of the spotlight. Seeing that Gu Zheng's article became popular, Mu Mu felt relieved to go back to rest after get off work.

She knew Gu Zheng's manuscript would be popular, but she didn't expect it to become this popular.

When she arrived at work the next day, she heard many colleagues discussing Gu Zheng's article. In just one night, the number of comments exceeded 20,000, and the number of clicks exceeded 500,000.

Mumu was also stunned by this result.

They are a food channel, not a news channel. Even on the news channel, only some hot news will have such high comments and clicks. Their food channel, let alone 20,000, usually has very few comments over 10,000. The last time it was ancient Strive to create.

Moreover, it was only half a day, only half a day, not even a full day.

This result also alarmed the upper management, and even the vice president personally came to inquire about the manuscript.

Not only that, they also received a large number of emails requesting reprinting, and many websites even directly reprinted Gu Zheng's articles without notifying them at all. After all, Gu Zheng now has a different identity, and such articles are very eye-catching.

After urgent discussions, the website quickly made a decision to move this article to the front page news item on the homepage.

News items on the front page of the homepage are not political news or current hot news. Their food channel has not had articles on the front page for a long time. This is the homepage of the portal website, not the homepage of one of their columns.

After it appeared on the homepage, the popularity increased again, with more than one million clicks and more than 40,000 comments.

This result can be said to be a record for the Food Channel, a record that no one else can break.

What can lead to such a result is first of all the fame of Gu Zheng. He is the most popular celebrity chef and the new national champion. Many people know him. Secondly, Gu Zheng's articles are really well written and make people read. Everyone wants to eat it, so there are so many comments.

There were too many comments, and there were inevitably some negative ones, which he ignored. In fact, after the article was published, he only glanced at it briefly, and then stopped asking.

After handing in this manuscript, Gu Zheng has paid off his last debt and is free again. Emei is developing in an orderly manner. Wuyou, Ouyang Hai and Jia Si are in charge of the sect, and Du Wei has been in charge. Qian Xiu, last time he took grass for food and healed most of his injuries. He needs to recover for a while.

After the training, Gu Zheng would give him another grass-for-food training, and his injuries would be almost recovered. His injuries were too serious and took a long time, so one session wouldn't do it at all.

Knowing that his hidden wounds could still be cured, Du Wei was also very excited. He also knew that there was no need to rush. Now he was in seclusion in the treasure house, firstly to recuperate from his injuries, and secondly, to guard the treasure house.

With him watching over you, you will feel at ease whether you are Wuyou or Gu Zheng.

Emei was fine, so Gu Zheng didn't go back and stayed in Shencheng.
