How to be financially free

Chapter 551

"Mr. Dong, I just came to the association, my qualifications are still inexperienced, and I have not made much contribution to the association. I have never thought about the position of executive vice president." Xu Wen smiled.

Just listen to Elder Dong.

There are thousands of people in the association, and if they want to be the executive vice president, they have to vote in an open election.

Even if Elder Dong supports it, it will not be an easy task.

At least for a short time, Xu Wen didn't have this idea.

Elder Dong was not surprised, and did not continue this topic.

The noon time passed quickly, and the duel between the two famous chefs, as well as Xu Wen's last stroke of genius, were destined to be talked about by the members present today.

Xu Wen's first appearance at the Catering Association in Shanghai was considered a success.

Everyone knows that Xu Dong, who owns two five-star hotels, makes fried rice that is a must.

It is very likely that the rumors will become more and more outrageous when they are passed on later.

For example, Xu Wen, the vice president of the Catering Association of Shanghai, made such a dejected and ecstasy fried rice.

In the afternoon, everyone rushed to the event venue.

This is an open themed event about traditional catering and Internet celebrity economy. In addition to many members of the Shanghai Catering Association, many Internet celebrity experts were also invited to participate.

The venue is at the Shanghai Fashion Convention Center.

The [-]-square-meter venue has been newly decorated, and the theme LOGO of "Xunwei, Future" is played on the big screen in a loop.

Almost all the main members participating in this meeting are members of the Shanghai Catering Association.

In addition to Xu Wen's vice president-level members, there are also hundreds of supervisors, members, and many other member representatives from the catering industry in Shanghai.

Almost all catering enterprises of a relatively small scale participated in the meeting, which can be regarded as half of the catering industry in Shanghai.

Along the way, there are not a few members who warmly came up to shake hands with Mr. Dong.

"Hello Mr. Dong!"

"Mr. Dong, when will you go to our shop for inspection and guidance?"

Many people have noticed Xu Wen standing next to Mr. Dong, and there are not a few who are curious.

However, even if they were curious, Mr. Dong might not necessarily introduce everyone to Xu Wen.

Except for some members with a little weight.

"This is Director Xu. Do you know the Anshi Hotel and the Sheraton Hotel? They are all owned by Mr. Xu." This is how Mr. Dong usually introduces Xu Wen.

As soon as the words were spoken, the other party immediately came up to shake hands and exchange business cards with great enthusiasm, all with a relatively low posture.

There are two five-star hotel figures in Magic City, and they must be respected.

Xu Wen was calm and smiling.

Strong assets gave him the confidence to take it lightly.

Along the way, the rich and beautiful Xu Wen left a deep impression on many members.

Many people remember this handsome and wealthy Dong Xu.

The seats in the venue are also particular.

Elder Dong sat in the middle of the first row, and the seat next to him was reserved for Xu Wen.

The seat nameplate is simple and clear:
Xu Wen, Vice President of Shanghai Catering Association

As the event approached, members took their seats one after another.

The venue was crowded with people.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, the activity began.

The lights in the venue gradually dimmed, and the two hosts came on stage together to announce the opening of the event.

The activity process begins with a speech by the sponsor.

As the president of the Catering Association of Shanghai, Elder Dong naturally bears the brunt of this kind of link.

"Everyone from the Food and Beverage Association of Shanghai, good afternoon." Boss Dong held the manuscript openly, looked down at it, and his voice was loud.

A moment later, there was thunderous applause in the venue. This is the treatment that the chairman of the Catering Association of Shanghai City deserves.

Elder Dong lowered his head again, reading the opening speech without haste.

It is nothing more than thanking a group of people, recalling the past and looking forward to the future.

The timing was just right, a full 15 minutes.

After Mr. Dong delivered his speech, the event officially kicked off.

Practitioners in the catering industry came to the stage to share their experiences.

They may be the owner of a chain restaurant, or the head chef of a hotel, or an executive of a catering company.

On the screen behind him, pieces of material appeared in due course.

In the field, applause continued.

The atmosphere was warm for a while.

Since it is the Internet celebrity economy's impression of modern catering, it is natural that the sharing of popular Internet celebrities is indispensable.

There are many MCN organizations participating in this event.

Well-known Internet celebrities from all major platforms attended the event one after another.

On and off the field, there were even anchors who broadcast the whole event live.

After an unknown amount of time, a handsome figure suddenly appeared on the screen.

Many experts looked at the screen, and their expressions suddenly changed.

"It's classmate Chu from Qianyu Culture!" an Internet celebrity exclaimed.

On the Xuanyin platform, Classmate Chu is quite famous for live broadcasting in Tandian.

What was on the screen was a clip of classmate Chu visiting the store.

"Hi everyone, I'm classmate Chu. Today we came to the Bund of Shanghai. It is said that there is the ceiling of the daily food store in Shanghai. Come and see it with me!"

Familiar soundtrack, simple and lively rhythm.

Off the court, many members smiled knowingly and whispered to each other.

"Exploring the store is the most direct impact of the Internet celebrity economy on the catering industry. Next, we will invite Mr. Chu to share his experience with us." The host said with a smile.

As soon as she finished speaking, a handsome figure walked onto the stage, under the lights, smiling.

This is Classmate Chu, who currently has nearly 2000 million followers on Xuanyin.

"Hi everyone, I'm classmate Chu." He bowed first when he came to the stage.

The audience applauded suddenly.

"Today I want to share with you my experience of visiting the store." Student Chu smiled and talked about his experience on the stage. Behind Xu Wen, there were faint discussions from members.

Many of the most direct catering practitioners have a deep feeling for the promotion method of Tandian, and they can't help feeling the same at this moment.

"Your family does self-service, have you found someone to visit the shop?"

"Why didn't you find it? The asking price was more than 1, and three or four people came over to eat and drink. I can't say the specific effect."

"Look for this classmate Chu! This person has a lot of fans, so he should be useful, right?"

"who knows?"

At the end of Chu's speech, facing half of the catering industry in Shanghai, his parents had a very correct attitude, and finally bowed deeply again.

The applause that should be given by the audience is indeed not stingy.

Beside the stage, student Chu walked down with a confident smile.

The staff in the company rushed forward enthusiastically, complimenting and flattering constantly.

"Brother Chu, I see that the people below are the most enthusiastic when you are on stage."

"Hey, you can't talk nonsense. Today's participants are all bosses. We just need to be ourselves." Student Chu said modestly.

Then, he looked at Chen Feiyao who was on the side.

"Fei Yao, the company will also arrange a chance for you to show your face later, remember to behave well." He said with a pleasant face.

Classmate Chu showed his affection again and again.

"Uh...thank you." Chen Feiyao thanked in a low voice, and took half a step back.

"Fei Yao, am I so scary?" Classmate Chu smiled helplessly.

To be honest, he really had a good impression of Chen Feiyao, and he planned to take a serious look at it.

The more Chen Feiyao kept his distance, the more interested he became.

With an annual income of tens of millions, he felt that he had the capital to pursue this top-notch girl from Rongcheng.

"I'm sorry, Brother Chu, I have to prepare first." Chen Feiyao didn't answer directly, but smiled with a sense of distance, and then turned to prepare.

"Okay, then go for it." Classmate Chu nodded with a restrained expression.

It's useless to show kindness. Of course he won't continue like this. When it's time to show displeasure, he will naturally show it.

However, Chen Feiyao acted as if she hadn't seen it, and she had already walked to the side of the stage.

"Next, we invite a new music master, Yaomei! Come and share her story."

In the venue, applause rang out.

Chen Feiyao took a deep breath, and walked towards the stage with a smile on her cool white skin and a long dress that showed off her temperament.

Off the stage, Xu Wen was chatting with a manager of a catering company next to him when he suddenly heard that familiar name.

On the screen, Chen Feiyao's cross-dressing video was as beautiful as ever.

"Why, Xu Dong, are you interested in this girl?" The boss beside him asked with a smile.

"The other party seems to be Qian Yu's person. If you are interested, you can find a connection with the other party's company to build a bridge. With your conditions, won't you be able to grab it by then?"

Xu Wen smiled slightly, but did not answer directly.

He just looked towards the stage, waiting for the familiar figure to appear.

After a while, under the light, a slim figure walked forward with a long skirt and a smile.

Cold white skin, good figure, delicate and small facial features, very good-looking.

She is Chen Feiyao.

Standing in the center of the stage, she smiled and bowed slightly to the audience.

"Hi everyone, I'm Chen Feiyao, from Rongcheng."

Chen Feiyao's voice is soft and has the crispness of a Sichuan girl, reserved and passionate.

At this moment, Chen Feiyao is undoubtedly confident.

The light shone on her cold and white face, and her eyes seemed to be shining with light.

She looked off the field, and everyone seemed to be looking at her seriously and paying attention to her.

She is no stranger to the feeling of being the focus.

Taking a light breath, Chen Feiyao was about to speak.

His eyes swept across the field gently and gently.

Then, Chen Feiyao was stunned, the smile froze on her face.

She saw Xu Wen.

All of Chen Feiyao's calmness and self-confidence, accompanied by her rapid heartbeat, suddenly became a mess.

It's uncle!
It was this figure that made her restless these days and made her worry about gains and losses.

Why is uncle here?

She still knows the background of the event this time. It is a public event hosted by the Catering Association of Shanghai, and all the participants are members of the Catering Association.

As for identities, there are hotel owners, celebrity chefs, and executives of catering companies.

As for the middlemost position in the first row, it is undoubtedly the most important position.

She took a closer look and vaguely saw that the position in front of Xu Wen was the vice president of the Catering Association.

Vice president?
The first row, the vice president of the catering association in the middle?

All of a sudden, various thoughts flooded in, and Chen Feiyao's heart went blank.

The stage has been quiet for a while.

The people below were still waiting for her to speak, but her eyes were blank and blank. The light in her eyes, the confidence and calmness in her heart had long since disappeared.

No one knows what she is thinking?
"What's the situation?" Xu Wen frowned slightly.

Just now he felt that Chen Feiyao was quite calm and behaved very well.

Why did you feel a little lost in such a short while?

This is a public event, and Chen Feiyao is an internet celebrity with tens of millions of fans, so it's no small matter to be cold!
What about the main topic after the opening remarks?Let's start!

As time went by, there was a faint noise of low-pitched discussions below.

Chen Feiyao opened her mouth, and when she met Xu Wen's gaze from a distance, she reacted with a jolt.

"I'm sorry...I." She tried hard to search for the words she had prepared in advance, and then, stammered, she began to speak.

Under the stage, many people were secretly shaking their heads.

Seeing that this cold white-skinned girl looks amazing, but I really didn't expect that she is not good enough and has stage fright.

How are the partners selected?
On the side of the booth in the venue, student Chu touched his chin and watched Chen Feiyao's performance.

He really didn't expect Chen Feiyao's performance to be so bad?
With such a bad performance, the company has a headache, and it has nothing to do with him.

However, this is an opportunity.

For Chen Feiyao's performance, the company's criticism will definitely be indispensable at that time. Wouldn't it be beautiful to comfort her properly?
Not far away, the boss of Qianyu Culture Branch folded his arms and looked very strange.

Everyone knows that his appearance is a sign of anger in his heart.

None of the surrounding staff dared to make trouble at this time.

"After a while, let Chen Feiyao come and look for me." He ordered.

Are you kidding me, on such an important occasion, I lost the chain.

This is simply discrediting the company!

On the stage of the venue, Chen Feiyao's complexion was slightly red, and her steps were chaotic.

Her performance can be described as terrible.

The preface is inconsistent, illogical, and stuttering.

At this moment, she wished she could immediately find a crack to get in.

What a shame!
She saw the whispering audience below, and saw Xu Wen staring at her.

Everyone is looking at her.

"Is this little girl from Qianyu culture?" Elder Dong said, smacking his lips slightly.

"I still have little experience, and I'm in a mess."

Xu Wen sat aside and declined to comment.

Time passed by every minute and every second, and Chen Feiyao spent her days on the stage like a year, finally stammering and illogically finishing what she wanted to say.

Chen Feiyao's face was hot, she bit her lip and bowed deeply.

"Thank you, thank you everyone."

Below the stage, the atmosphere was eerily quiet.

Everyone just looked at each other, not knowing whether to applaud or not.

No one started, and everyone simply didn't respond, just looking at the thin figure on the stage.

Chen Feiyao stood on the stage, holding her hands tightly, her already cold white skin became even paler.

There was no applause, which seemed to say it all.

"Go down, little girl!" A faint voice came from a distance.

It may not be malicious, after all, it might be even more embarrassing to be in such a stalemate on stage.

The host on the side was ready to step forward to smooth things over.

There is still a little bit of a step down in this way.

At this moment, there was a burst of applause in the venue.

Xu Wen leaned slightly on the back of the chair and clapped his hands.

There were microphones in the front row, and Xu Wen's applause immediately resounded in the venue.

"Who is applauding?" Someone whispered.

"In the front row, it seems to be the one sitting next to Elder Dong?"

"Who is that?"

"Don't know? Director Xu, the chairman of Anshi Hotel and Sheraton Hotel."

"It turned out to be this one."

Sitting next to Xu Wen, Elder Dong was a little surprised at first.

He looked at Xu Wen, then at the lonely and frightened little girl on the stage, and smiled knowingly.

"Xu Dong still feels sorry for the fragrance and cherishes the jade!" Elder Dong followed suit and applauded.

There are two people who take the lead, one of whom is still the president.

Immediately, in the venue, the applause gradually became one.

Chen Feiyao looked at the venue in disbelief, and a strange feeling crept in her heart.

Off the court, Xu Wen looked at her with gentle eyes and applauded non-stop.

Chen Feiyao's eyes turned red, and she almost froze.

Although her performance was terrible, the applause at the end didn't seem to make her completely ashamed.

"Thank you, thank you all." She kept thanking.

I added another sentence in my heart.

Thank you uncle.

She knew that without Xu Wen taking the lead in applauding, today, she might really be defeated.

Outside the arena, Student Chu looked surprised.

I thought Chen Feiyao would be embarrassed to the end, but I didn't expect such a reversal in the end.

He noticed who clapped first.

It was a young man with an extremely handsome face sitting beside the president.

"Who is that one?"

Student Chu couldn't help asking the staff.

"It's not very clear, it should be the vice president, right? The first row is all the vice presidents." The staff is not very clear.

"Okay." Classmate Chu looked at Xu Wen who was casually chatting with Mr. Dong, doubts circling in his mind.

However, it doesn't matter.

It is a fact that Chen Feiyao performed poorly.

Accountability from the company level is definitely indispensable.

After a while, Chen Feiyao bowed her head and stepped off the stage.

The staff of Tianyu Culture are deliberately avoiding her at this moment, for fear of getting into trouble.

"Chen Feiyao, Mr. Zhang asked you to go and look for him." A staff member came over to convey the meaning.

Chen Feiyao nodded, she had already expected it.

After all, with such a poor performance, it would be no wonder not to look for her.

After walking a few steps, student Chu stopped in front.

"Fei Yao, did you encounter any difficulties? Why today?"

Chen Feiyao walked past classmate Chu as if she had never heard of it.

"How about I say hello to Mr. Zhang?" Classmate Chu said to Chen Feiyao's back.

"No need." Chen Feiyao left a sentence without stopping in her footsteps.
