Chapter 1256 The Number of Applicants Exploded
Everyone walked together towards He Jie's office.
Because of his position, Li Dongxu had been sitting in the corner. When the show was over, he happened to meet an acquaintance and chatted for a few more words.
Now that I finally said goodbye, I hurriedly caught up with him.
Among those present, Li Dongxu spoke softly and greeted everyone one by one. Then he winked at Fu Yu and motioned for him to stay back and talk.
Different from Li Dongxu's invisible state, Fu Yu was always surrounded by everyone. When he saw Li Dongxu calling him, Fu Yu quickly stopped and politely asked other seniors to go first, while he slowed down and walked to Li Dongxu's side.
Deliberately two steps behind the others, Li Dongxu approached Fu Yu and couldn't help but said: "Xiao Fu, you are a bit too impulsive. This is such a critical time now. You said you made the communication content so difficult, What to do tomorrow?”
The more Li Dongxu talked, the more worried he became: "If too few people come by then, the scene will not be pretty."
What he said was true to his heart, and he was really worried about Fu Yu.
Li Dongxu watched this cooking demonstration from beginning to end, very carefully and with special concentration.
But it was precisely because he attached great importance to it and took it extremely seriously that he knew how difficult it would be for Fu Yu to discuss innovative ideas as the main content of the exchange tomorrow.
Anyway, after listening to it, he just felt hopeless and confused. In the end, he didn't even know what he should focus on.
Having been cooking for decades, although he has many opinions and experiences on cooking methods, the new cooking concept proposed by Fu Yu is still too unfamiliar to him.
I have never thought about this before, let alone studied it.
Li Dongxu and Liu Yongping are from the same origin, and their cooking skills are also very good. After all, they can successfully apply for the World Heritage of their hometown delicacies with their Jiangyu Banquet, and now they have made their catering business bigger and stronger, which itself shows their strength.
Hearing Li Dongxu say the same thing, Fu Yu suddenly felt even more unsure!
As soon as everyone arrived at He Jie's office, the landline rang.
He Jie went over to answer the phone. After hearing this, he was stunned for a moment, and then responded: "I'm in the office. You can bring them up. Chef Fu is also here."
When He Jie hung up the phone, Fu Yu quickly said: "Chef He, who is coming? I, I should go back and prepare for tomorrow's speech. If it doesn't work, I will adjust the content."
How could He Jie not know Fu Yu's concerns and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter, the people here are all old members of the Food Association. This time, we specially invited them to come over to help guide the new training activities. Now they have come up with ideas I came to see you and probably have some communication with you about what happened at today’s meeting.”
"It's good to listen to everyone's opinions. At least you can be mentally prepared and won't be in a hurry when you respond tomorrow."
After hearing these words, Fu Yu was not ready to leave. However, he was still a little nervous. He didn't know what these senior members of the food association planned to communicate with him.
As he spoke, a burst of chatter and laughter soon sounded in the corridor.
After a while, the office door was opened, and Assistant Cheng came over with a group of people.
However, everyone who had been chatting and laughing in the room just now fell silent after entering the office. Everyone looked at Fu Yu, who was sitting on the guest chair in front of the desk.
Fu Yu quickly stood up, only to see everyone who entered the door staring at him.
Fu Yu suddenly felt difficulty breathing and urgently needed to go out and breathe some haze.
Li Dongxu, on the other hand, looked at Fu Yu with a worried look on his face. This posture suggested that the person coming was evil!
However, given his identity and status, he really had nothing to say in this situation.
He Jie, on the other hand, saw everyone entering the door and immediately greeted with a smile: "You guys are quite fast. Assistant Cheng just called me and you guys came over."
After that, he introduced: "This is Fu Yu, Chef Fu, who will provide cooking training for everyone tomorrow."
"Xiao Fu, these are the elders of our association. Come on, let me introduce them to you."
After everyone got to know each other, He Jie said with a smile: "Xiao Fu, everyone happens to be here. You can also talk about the training content in advance. Come on, you can say a few words."
After hearing this, everyone suddenly became quiet again and gave up their seats in front of the desk.
Fu Yu didn't sit down anymore, stood up straight, looked at everyone, and said modestly: "Hello, seniors, I really didn't expect that everyone would be willing to come and get to know me. I am very honored, and I am very grateful to you all."
"As for the content of this training, no, it's training. In fact, I really need such a platform to exchange some methods and experiences about cooking operations with my seniors."
"However, before that, I must first do a self-examination. Because I have no experience in this area, I have not been able to grasp the scope of the communication content. The cooking operation of the dishes shown today is actually very difficult. , I have realized it, but the time at that time was limited and I didn’t have time to explain it carefully to everyone, so I deliberately postponed the rest of the content to tomorrow’s event to communicate with everyone.”
After what he said, Fu Yu actually felt a little uneasy. He felt that what he said was sincere, but he didn't know if others could understand it.
And the moment he finished speaking, someone suddenly took the lead in applauding.
Suddenly, the applause in the office quickly became intense.
Fu Yu stared at the many seniors in front of him in amazement. Everyone was applauding him, but his expression was full of excitement!
This.
This doesn't seem to be a sign of a cold audience!
"Chef Fu, your cooking demonstration today is really wonderful. I really benefited a lot after watching it! I came here specially this time just to express my gratitude to you in person!"
"Yes! Chef Fu, the control of heat has always been a difficult problem in cooking operations. You have opened a new window for us!"
"I am also here to express my gratitude, Chef Fu, thank you, today's cooking operation really inspired me a lot, thank you so much!"
Listening to the words of several seniors, Fu Yu realized that it seemed that he was biased.
He directly equated the cooking skills of other seniors attending the meeting with Li Dongxu!
Thinking of this, Fu Yu felt relieved and took the opportunity to advertise his special show tomorrow.
"You are so polite, seniors. I will be here tomorrow. Welcome everyone to come. I will share this innovative cooking concept and the related operation methods I have summarized with you."
Everyone was very happy and couldn't help but applaud.
Afterwards, everyone pulled Fu Yu to exchange contact information.
They had a better impression of Fu Yu.
This selfless way of directly announcing his innovative ideas and sharing them with everyone made everyone admire and appreciate him.
Fu Yu's mind and approach made everyone want to make friends and support him.
There are always many talents in the food circle. To have such an excellent junior, the seniors are surprised and more relieved.
Only when the newcomers are outstanding can the food circle develop better.
And the older generation like them can only help the juniors more and help them if they can. After all, they know that the other party is amazingly talented and excellent, and they will become great sooner or later.
Now, Fu Yu is in a state of rising momentum, so it is better to help him in need rather than to add icing on the cake.
The seniors exchanged a few words with Fu Yu and left.
After seeing him off, Fu Yu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Li Dongxu sat next to Liu Yongping, watching Fu Yu send him off, and couldn't help but lean in and whisper, "Can they really understand Fu Yu's innovative ideas?"
Liu Yongping was about to speak when the landline in the office suddenly rang.
He Jie reached out to pick it up.
"President He, the number of people participating in the event tomorrow is increasing. The number of people we counted here will soon exceed the number of people that the venue can accommodate. What should we do? Should we temporarily change the venue or close the registration?"
The department responsible for the personnel level of this event called to report the situation.
There was originally no limit on the number of people participating in tomorrow's event. After all, the conference room where the event was held today is the largest venue of the Food Association.
All large-scale meetings in the circle are usually held here.
Today, so many bigwigs in the circle came to the scene, but they only sat in two-thirds of the seats in the venue.
But now the number of people who have registered through various connections is about to exceed the number of people that the conference room can accommodate.
The head of the department hurriedly called He Jie to ask for his opinion.
After all, these temporary registrants all came through various connections, and many of them could not be rejected at all.
If the leaders have something to say, their subordinates can also execute it better.
After listening, He Jie was stunned and asked in surprise: "What?"
The head of the department explained: "Since the cooking demonstration just now, we have been contacted one after another, wanting to fight for the quota to participate in tomorrow's event. Among them are leaders of local branches, and chefs from many well-known restaurants such as Luming Hotel and Yongningju Hotel have contacted us. President, it is really difficult for me to refuse."
He Jie took a deep breath and was also a little excited.
This kind of exchange activity similar to training has been held many times over the years, but it has never been as widely concerned and enthusiastically participated as it is now.
Especially in terms of scale, if the capacity of the conference room can be exceeded, then almost half of the food circle will come, right?
However, the number of people is too high now, which is definitely not okay.
What to do?
He Jie thought for a while and said, "Okay, I know about this matter. How to deal with it specifically, wait for my call."
While He Jie was waiting for him to hang up the phone, someone next to him immediately asked, "President He, what's wrong? Did something happen?"
Everyone present was going to participate in the event tomorrow. Now they have encountered a problem, so it's a good opportunity to listen to everyone's opinions.
So He Jie told the story again.
I heard that the number of people who signed up for tomorrow's event has exploded!
Everyone present was very fortunate that they had foresight and applied for the quota for the event in advance.
But Liu Yongping immediately suggested after listening to He Jie: "President He, how about... go to the lecture hall of the Great Hall tomorrow?"
He Jie's eyes lit up when he heard it: "Can it work?"
Liu Yongping smiled: "I'll contact them first, it should be no problem."
He Jie turned to look at Fu Yu: "Xiao Fu, if we change the venue temporarily, you can have no problem, right?"
That's the Great Hall!
How many people dream of the place!
Fu Yu, of course, no problem!
And I never expected that the number of people who want to participate in the training activities tomorrow would exceed.
This is a good thing!
After all, there are clear requirements for the task rewards. The smoother the closing activities are completed, the richer the rewards!
Now that I can gather so many seniors to participate, everyone brainstorms and finally summarizes the information into the cooking guide. How high will the final completion of the guide be?
Fu Yu nodded: "No problem!"
Liu Yongping said quickly: "I'll contact them now."
He Jie looked at Fu Yu: "This is really a bit unexpected. It seems that you will be tired tomorrow!"
Fu Yu couldn't help but smile: "How can this be tired? I hope so!"
At this time, Li Dongxu still felt unbelievable when he saw this scene.
He murmured in disbelief: "Such a difficult cooking. Can these people really do it? There are always people better than people!"
At the same time, Eric, who was sitting next to him, sighed: "I still have too narrow vision. I always think I am very good, but in fact, when I really jump out of my comfort zone, I will find that no matter how good you are, there will always be someone better and more powerful than you!"
Li Dongxu was stunned and couldn't help turning his head to look at Eric.
He is really an international chef, and he is quite humble!
Everyone gathered in He Jie's office and chatted for a long time. It seemed that it was indeed too late.
So He Jie arranged for everyone to go back and rest, and meet again tomorrow when they participated in the event.
After leaving the Gourmet Association, several people rushed to send Fu Yu home, but Fu Yu declined.
He lived a little far from here, and he was not sure whether other people were going the same way. It was not good to go a long way just to give him a ride.
Seeing that Fu Yu was really insistent, everyone watched him take a taxi and leave.
Fu Yu got in the car, leaned outside the car window and waved goodbye enthusiastically, then sat down on the seat and breathed a long sigh of relief.
He was really worried before. What if no one came tomorrow, or too few people came, it would not look good.
Now that the most worried thing has finally been settled, Fu Yu is completely relaxed.
Since everyone thinks that the content he set before is very good, then simply don't make any changes.
It's a good opportunity to communicate with everyone. (End of this chapter)
