After finishing the supper, Fu Yu rushed to pay the bill.
Zhao Meng smiled and said, "Am I going to start borrowing money from you now?"
Fu Yu said boldly: "Where are you now! Chef Zhao, you will still be behind me when you follow me to enjoy my life!"
Zhao Meng smiled from ear to ear. Seeing Fu Yu standing tall and straight in front of him, he felt even more grateful that he had such a discerning eye and discovered such a big treasure.
When calling home in the evening, Fu Yu restrained himself repeatedly and did not show off to his parents that he was earning extra money. He just foreshadowed the situation by saying that he was now learning how to make herbal meals from his master, and would gradually start to take over the business of exclusive customers in the future.
His parents were very happy to hear this and repeatedly told him to learn the craft from Zhao Meng.
After hanging up the phone, Fu Yu couldn't help but check his account balance again.
He actually also has a six-figure savings!
Just a few months ago, this was still a luxury for him.
But now, with the help of the system, he got it easily.
Fu Yu felt the importance of the system more and more deeply.
This night, like every day before, he insisted on reading classic recipes for half an hour before going to bed, trying to enrich his cooking knowledge.
Opportunity awaits those who are prepared.
Fu Yu secretly made up his mind to seize every opportunity and strive to become better and earn more money.
He hopes to provide the best life for his parents, and also wants Zhao Meng to be proud of him one day.
The next morning.
Yao Shi came over to inform that the chef school had communicated with the store and six interns would be hired in a few days.
The kitchen needs to prepare in advance and arrange dormitories and specific working locations.
This matter needs to be handled by Zhao Meng and Gu Yunwu.
When the people arrived, the two of them looked at them first, picked three on each side, and each took his own.
As for the accommodation, it is managed by Zhao Meng, because Gu Yunwu does not live in the dormitory and does not care about the affairs here.
Normally, the dormitories in the store are for two people per room, but now there are two empty rooms that can accommodate four people.
As for the remaining two people, it was arranged to find a bed at will.
And I don’t know if there are any people here who live in this city and don’t need accommodation.
So there is no rush to make arrangements.
In the afternoon, Yao Shi received a call from Dong Juntian, asking Fu Yu to attend a temporary rehearsal at the Bund Park, the venue for the Sanjiang Tourism Festival.
The person in charge of the Propaganda Department of the Municipal Party Committee was directly approached by Dong Juntian. If he nodded, Fu Yu had to implement it immediately.
Fu Yu changed his clothes and rushed to the Bund Park.
Qianlima is a bit far from the Bund Park, so Fu Yu took a taxi to rush there.
After getting out of the car, seeing that the rehearsal was about to start in half an hour, he was afraid of being late, so he ran all the way and rushed into the gate.
It was a long distance, but Fu Yu ran very easily.
Because he was running so fast, many pedestrians along the way looked sideways. When they saw a well-dressed and handsome young man, everyone's expressions were unanimous in approval and surprise.
"Teacher Liu, what do you think of this arrangement?"
Liu Yunong's eyes moved back from the figure running quickly outside the window, turned to look at the staff of the Propaganda Department, and said politely: "I think it's fine, just follow your arrangements."
The staff breathed a genuine sigh of relief.
Mainly because Liu Yunong is really not easy to talk to.
He looks gentle and polite, but is actually very distant.
Are you saying she cooperates? Not positive at all.
Are you saying she doesn't cooperate? And I really never give any advice, no matter what.
This made the staff responsible for communicating with her very embarrassed, and they didn't know how to control this degree.
After Liu Yunong finished speaking, he turned to look out the window.
The figure has disappeared.
Liu Yunong raised her eyebrows slightly, turned around and asked the staff: "How long will the rehearsal be?"
The staff looked at the phone and quickly replied: "There's still half an hour."
Liu Yunong nodded and said nothing more.
Fu Yu rushed to the rehearsal venue, but it was still early.
He got the rehearsal schedule and the participants' tags from the staff, and then started to familiarize himself with the venue environment along with other people who had arrived first.
The stage for the competition is very spacious, and the kitchen tables used by the contestants have been set up. There are twelve kitchen tables in total. Although there are no kitchen utensils, they are arranged so neatly in three rows, which looks quite spectacular.
A large promotional picture of the judges hangs behind the judging table.
Fu Yu walked over and took a closer look and found Liu Yunong sitting first on the left.
The main seat in the middle is Dai Jinghe, with Chen Xinwei and Zhang Zhiyuan on both sides.
Li Chongfu is sitting first on the right.
Through the location arrangement of the judges' seats, the status of the judges is clear at a glance.
At four o'clock in the afternoon, as several leaders of the Propaganda Department of the Municipal Party Committee and members of the jury entered the venue, the rehearsal officially began.
Fu Yu and other contestants only had to wait in the background.
After the host has finished speaking his lines, a dedicated staff member will lead them to the stage.
Fu Yu's kitchen counter is on the right side of the second row. The four people in the first row in front are all old people who have participated in competitions before and are also chefs from several well-known restaurants in the city.
Fu Yu was young and not well-known in the industry. He was able to occupy the second row only because of the Maxima Hotel.
However, when the official rehearsal began and several contestants took their places, the cameraman pointed the camera at the stage, zooming in and out, and everyone showed their faces on the big screen one by one. Director Zou from the Propaganda Department of the Municipal Party Committee suddenly called the person in charge of the stage director. Man, I said something in my ear.
Afterwards, Fu Yu was moved to the second kitchen counter on the left side of the first row, and the camera was facing the competition stage, so he had many opportunities to be in the shot.
The judges sit in front of the judging table and watch the specific operations of the contestants through the large screen directly above the stage.
Which contestant is photographed more often will be more likely to leave a deep impression on the judges.
It was Fu Yu's first time participating in the competition and he didn't understand many of the tricks involved.
However, he was very happy to be transferred from the second row to the first row.
Fu Yu was happy, but Liu Yunpeng, who was squeezed away, was full of resentment.
Liu Yunpeng is the chef of the Family Hotel and is fairly well-known in the industry.
Although he is not as good as the other three masters in the first row, compared with the rest, he is considered senior.
Taking advantage of the temporary suspension of rehearsals and time for staff to communicate and discuss, he found the chief planner responsible for stage arrangements.
"You have arranged this matter a bit too much! Why should I make room for him?"
Liu Yunpeng believes that whether it is his cooking skills or reputation in the industry, he will definitely beat Fu Yu.
The chief planner listened to what he said and explained seriously: "Oh, this matter was decided by our Minister Zou."
Liu Yunpeng frowned: "Why did he decide like this?"
The staff member laughed and said: "Maybe it's because of the photogenic effect."
Liu Yunpeng: "!"
He turned around and looked at Fu Yu's handsome face, then took out his phone and looked at himself.
Liu Yunpeng: "..."
