Chapter 1666 Yuan Zhou, Chairman of the Celebrity Chefs Federation Branch
The secretary-general's name is Xu Ban. He is in his thirties and in the prime of life. He wears a suit, which makes people feel that he is sent directly from the headquarters of the Global Celebrity Chefs Federation.
The Global Federation of Celebrity Chefs Associations is one of the largest associations among chefs in the world. In particular, 80% of famous chefs from French and Turkish cuisines have joined this association.
"Chairman Yuan has long admired his name. As the secretary-general of the Chinese branch of the Global Celebrity Chefs Federation, I should have come over a long time ago." Xu Ban continued: "But I heard that Chairman Zhou said that Chairman Yuan will organize a horse-racing banquet recently. In addition, It will take some time to form the upper branch, so it has been delayed until now. Please forgive me for being rude."
That's right, after Yuan Zhou received the highest satisfaction rating ever at the personal cooking exhibition, Manfred, as the chairman of the federation, invited Yuan Zhou to join the federation three times.
At the third invitation, Yuanzhou agreed because Manfred promised to establish a Chinese branch.
You know, in the past, the Global Celebrity Chefs Federation only had the Asian branch and the Japanese branch in Asia.
In other words, except Japan, all other Asian countries are counted together.
As one of the three major cuisines in the world, Chinese cuisine does not have an independent branch, which sounds amazing. What is even more amazing is that, except for Chu Xiao, no Chinese chef has entered the celebrity chef association.
As the honorary chairman of the Asian Federation of Celebrity Chefs, Chu Xiao has always wanted to make China independent.
But the effect was very little, but Yuan Zhou was able to do this, which is why Chu Xiao defended Yuan Zhou extremely.
In France, as long as there is a chef who dares to criticize Yuan Zhou, he will immediately start a fight.
Just like previous cultural exchanges, food culture is also a type of culture. The biggest benefit of joining the Global Celebrity Chefs Federation is that as long as you are a celebrity chef member, no matter which country you go to, you must be recognized as a celebrity chef.
What don't you recognize?
The International Food Safety Association and the World Food Hygiene Organization have both reached strategic cooperation relationships with global federations.
There are also many world-class cooking competitions, all jointly organized by celebrity chef associations.
With resources and capabilities, the status of the Celebrity Chefs Federation must be recognized.
"Well, I know it will definitely take some time to establish a new department. Thank you for your hard work." Yuan Zhou nodded.
"It's not hard work. It's hard work for Chairman Yuan." Xu Ban said.
In addition to his respect for Yuan Zhou, apart from his superiors and subordinates, as someone who works in the General Association, he also knows Yuan Zhou's weight very well.
Among other things, the rules of the Global Celebrity Chefs Federation are that, in addition to the three quotas for the chairman’s recommendation letter, or the one person quota for the honorary chairman’s recommendation letter, if you want to join, you must be recommended by three celebrity chefs of different nationalities, and then you Only then are you eligible to submit a self-recommendation letter.
Augusta, chairman of the North American Celebrity Chefs Federation, Fujiwara, chairman of the Japan Celebrity Chefs Federation, and President Manfred, jointly recommended Yuan Zhou to become the chairman of the China Celebrity Chefs Federation.
It can be said that he single-handedly made the Federation of Celebrity Chefs recognize the status of Chinese cuisine.
And this is not over yet. The other celebrity chef branch chairmen can only make a preliminary review, and whether they can join will still need to be reviewed by the headquarters.
But Chairman Yuan Zhou does not need to go through the headquarters. If he agrees, it means it has passed the review.
This is a right that no other branch except the General Association has, not even the second largest branch, the Turkish Federation of Celebrity Chefs.
When he was transferred, Xu Ban was very confused. He really didn't expect that there was such a fierce person in the domestic chef circle.
Xu Ban solemnly took out several documents from the folder and said: "Chairman Yuan, I have omitted all other procedures that can be omitted, but you still need to sign these four documents."
Yuanzhou looked at the four documents carefully. The first was a transfer contract for a villa in Chengdu, the second was an appointment letter from the French headquarters, and the third and fourth were for members of the Huaxia branch. List, and industry description of the segment.
"Because Chairman Yuan has settled in Chengdu for a long time, the branch headquarters is also located in Chengdu, and this villa is a benefit provided by the headquarters to the branch chairman.
So whether you, Minister Yuan, will live there or not, it belongs to you. "
Xu Ban explained the four documents to Yuan Zhou and said: "I don't need to explain the appointment letter, and the remaining two are reports on the establishment of the branch. Chairman Yuan, you can take a good look at it. After signing, it means that you agree with Huaxia on behalf of the chairman." Celebrity chef branch established.”
Yuan Zhou nodded and looked at it carefully. The list of members was very simple, because it was just established. Apart from Xu Ban, the secretary-general, Chu Xiao was the only one left.
Yes, Chu Xiao passed the General Assembly and turned him from the honorary chairman of the Asia branch to the honorary chairman of the Chinese branch.
As for the branch industries, there are many and wide. It even has its own magazine "Global Celebrity Chefs (Chinese Edition)". It is not unreasonable for the Global Celebrity Chefs Federation to be so powerful.
After reading them all, Yuan Zhou signed his name.
"Chairman Yuan, please give me your advice in the future." Xu Ban said solemnly, bending down.
Xu Ban also asked Yuan Zhou if he had time now. He could take Yuan Zhou to visit the branch headquarters.
"Then I'd like to trouble Secretary-General Xu." Yuan Zhou thanked him.
"Don't call me that. Chairman Yuan, just call me Xiao Xu. I am your die-hard supporter. Your personal cooking show has become very popular abroad."
Xu Bandao: "You don't know that there are many chefs in Europe who want to challenge you, but I think they all overestimate their abilities!"
Yuanzhou thought to himself that it seems that no foreigners have challenged him recently.
In fact, Yuan Zhou didn’t know this. After the Celebrity Chefs Federation headquarters officially issued the news, a group of young European chefs came. They all wanted to join the Global Celebrity Chefs Federation, but they had no skills. There was a chef in the East who was younger than them and became the branch president, and that was really unbearable.
Jealousy separated the hostage walls, so this group of people came. They happened to catch up with the horse fraud feast, and they blended in with the crowd to watch.
Hmm... If you can't afford it, if you can't afford it, a group of people returned home in despair, so of course Yuan Zhou didn't know about it.
Xu Ban drove here, and the vehicle drove to the Jinniu District, which was still some distance away from the Kitchen God Shop.
The geographical location is central. The surrounding area is neither very prosperous nor deserted. There are subway stations and railway stations within 100 meters.
The branch headquarters is a relatively independent small building with five floors. The overall style is simple European style. On the top of the building is the logo of the Celebrity Chefs Association.
The kitchen, investigation department, management department, discussion hall and other facilities and staff have all been recruited.
As an aside, all the staff, including Secretary-General Xu Ban, are not enrolled in the Celebrity Chefs Club.
It hasn't been long since my solo exhibition. To have such a scene, my work efficiency can be said to be very high.
"Are Chairman Yuan still satisfied?" Xu Ban asked.
"Very good." Yuan Zhou noticed the magazine on the table and asked, "Is this the magazine of our branch?"
"Yes, Chairman, this is the first draft of the first issue of our magazine." Xu Ban replied.
Yuan Zhou took a look and found that this first issue was very informative and informative. Seventy percent of the entire article was an introduction to him, and the remaining thirty percent was an introduction to the history of the Global Famous Chefs Federation.
From cooking skills to experience.
From knife skills to self-discipline.
Yuan Zhou felt a little embarrassed.
"Yeah, pretty good." Yuan Zhou nodded.
"As long as Chairman Yuan is satisfied, I just thought that since this is the first issue, we must introduce our chairman." Xu Band said.
"Yes, very thoughtful." Yuan Zhou replied.
After watching everything on the fifth floor, Xu Ban reminded Yuan Zhou before leaving.
"Chairman Yuan, the three celebrity chefs you want to recommend can be arranged. Our branch has just started and needs to attract members."
"okay, I get it."
According to the mechanism of the Celebrity Chefs Association, Yuan Zhou's three-point recommendation letter is indeed urgent.
After returning to Taoxi Road from the branch headquarters, Yuan Zhou had to start preparing dinner ingredients again.
While Yuan Zhou is busy, Xia Yu, who often goes for morning runs with Yuan Zhou recently, is also a little busy today because she is picking up people at the airport.
At the international exit of Shuangliu Airport, Xia Yu's tall figure stood out. A middle-aged couple who looked polite smiled and waved after seeing Xia Yu, and then walked towards Xia Yu.
"Oh, my daughter, you look very nice." It was the middle-aged woman who spoke. Her Chinese was very fluent, although her words were a bit strange.
"Yes, you do look very good. It seems that you have found a place that suits you." The middle-aged man looked Xia Yu up and down before speaking with a smile.
"Of course, I think it's a very lucky thing that our hometown is here." Xia Yu was much more lively than when she was in the store, and replied with a smile.
"Then let's go, Mom and Dad." Xia Yu's accent and diction were much better, and it was very authentic Mandarin.
Well, maybe it's not very authentic, because it always sounds like salt and pepper, a bit like Sichuan Mandarin.
Yes, the middle-aged couple are Xia Yu's parents. They called Xia Yu and came to see her in person. After all, they were a little worried when Xia Yu left, and now they have stayed in Chengdu for so long. , and said that he was much better and could even play tennis.
They couldn't sit still after hearing such good news. After saying hello to Xia Yu, they flew directly to Chengdu to meet their daughter.
"Okay, okay, let's go." The middle-aged couple looked at each other and watched Xia Yu pull up their suitcases and leave as usual when she wasn't sick. They felt sincerely happy and surprised. But he held back what he wanted to ask and followed Xia Yu outside the airport.
During this period, Xia Yu had been leading the way, walking with steady and strong steps. It was obvious that she was showing that she was almost healed, so as to reassure her parents.
When the three of them got into the car, Xia Yu announced the place name of Taoxi Road in Sichuan dialect. Then she turned back to her parents and said, "I have reserved a room for you. How about staying at my place tonight?"
"Of course, I didn't book a hotel in advance." The middle-aged man said with a smile and spread his hands.
"Yes, yes, we will live together during this period." The middle-aged woman nodded repeatedly.
Xia Yu and her parents are both of Chinese descent. Although they speak Chinese a lot at home, their social habits are still somewhat Westernized. For example, Xia Yu has moved out to live independently since college, just like ordinary American young people.
During this period, the driver who was driving asked Xia Yu curiously whether the family of three were tourists or locals.
Xia Yu said naturally that they were locals, but her parents had just returned from abroad.
Yes, Xia Yu has stayed on Taoxi Road for a long time and already has a strong sense of belonging. She has long regarded the small house on the street as her home instead of the temporary residence she originally envisioned.
Soon, the car arrived at the intersection of Taoxi Road. Xia Yu helped the driver unload the luggage. During this period, her mother wanted to help, but was stopped by Xia Yu's father. He wanted to see if his daughter was real. alright.
You must know that as a tennis player, Xia Yu's muscle strength is very strong. When she is healthy, carrying luggage is just a trivial matter.
That's why Xia Yu's father stopped his wife from helping.
"Let's go and show you my home here. It's very nice." Xia Yu said to her parents with a suitcase in each hand.
"Okay, we'll wait." Xia Yu's father nodded.
Xia Yu's mother couldn't help but wipe the corners of her eyes with some joy. She was happy for Xia Yu.
After all, she had seen how uncomfortable Xia Yu was when she was forced to retire, and now that her daughter seemed to have gotten rid of the muscle weakness, she was naturally crying with joy.
But in order not to ruin everyone's mood, Xia Yu's mother was very restrained. After wiping the corners of her eyes, she followed him away.
But she soon discovered that her daughter was not only recovering from her illness, but she was also much more cheerful. Because Xia Yu was walking forward with two boxes, someone greeted her almost every three steps and asked if she needed help. .
Xia Yu would respond enthusiastically and introduce them as husband and wife, and those people would greet them enthusiastically.
So by the time they followed Xia Yu to her home, the couple, who had just returned from the United States, no longer felt strange at all, but instead felt sincerely cordial.
"It's really nice here." Xia Yu's father said with emotion.
"Yes, the people here are very friendly." The middle-aged woman nodded.
"Of course, because this is Boss Yuan's Taoxi Road." Xia Yu turned around and said proudly.
"Boss Yuan?" the couple asked in unison.
"Yes, my recovery so quickly has something to do with Boss Yuan," Xia Yu nodded, then paused and continued, "It should be said that it has a lot to do with it."
"Is this Boss Yuan a doctor?" the middle-aged woman asked doubtfully.
"Of course not, he is a master chef." Xia Yu shook her head with a smile, then opened the door and let her parents in.
"What does Master Chef have to do with your illness?" Now even Xia Yu's father became curious.
"You may not know the name of Boss Yuan and Yuan Zhou when you stay in the United States, but Boss Yuan is now the most famous chef in Southeast Asia, or in the whole of Asia." Xia Yu said proudly.
"Yuanzhou? This name sounds familiar." The middle-aged woman muttered.
But Xia Yu's father suddenly remembered something and said, "I seem to have seen this name in a medical magazine. That person is also from China."
