Chapter 299 Xie Baomin: I want to follow other people's path, so that others have nowhere to go! 【Subscribe】

"You mean, let Chef Xie go to the TV station to record a program?"

Zeng Xiaoqi was so surprised that she even forgot to eat the salt-baked chicken that she just snatched from the plate.

That's the executive chef of Diaoyutai, just by this name, it's enough to increase the ratings.

I did mention this when I was preparing for the show, but at the time I thought it would be fine if Diaoyutai had a chef or a head chef. If it was a head chef, I would never dare to think about it.

In the past two days, we were discussing the naming advertisement of a cooking utensil brand, but because the contract included Lin Kee's naming rights for three months, the negotiation was not very smooth.

The representative of the manufacturer felt that Lin Xu, a single chef, was too small to support the gourmet show of Taste of the World for a long time, so the quotation was pressed repeatedly.

When I came today, the other party offered to sign the contract directly with another [-]% reduction, but Zeng Xiaoqi refused.

Now with the participation of Diaoyutai.

Then the quotation to the manufacturer needs to be reconsidered.

Simply put:
"I have to pay more!"

If it hadn't been for the written cooperation with Diaoyutai, Zeng Jiaqian Layman Xiaoqi would have wanted to send a message to the manufacturer's representative to get him ready to bleed.

Lin Xu smiled and said:

"Actually, my senior brother likes to join in the fun. He's a little tired of being in Diaoyutai, so I just found him a fun place, and it also gives Diaoyutai a platform to show off. They should agree."

Before Lin Xu planned to let Wei Qian and the others go.

But thinking about it is easy to cause aesthetic fatigue to the audience.

You Linji Food contracted this show or what?
So I asked my brother to shoot a few episodes on behalf of Diaoyutai, and then let Wei Gan go to shoot.

The head chef of Diaoyutai and the chef of Lin Kee take turns, giving the audience the illusion that Lin Kee food and Diaoyutai are of the same level.

When those electronic products and automotive products release new products, don't they all like to find the industry's first slam to show their awesomeness?

Lin Ji couldn't hang Diaoyutai, and he couldn't hang it either.

But it can beat other foreign-related hotels and traditional famous shops together with Diaoyutai.

Cook also scored 83 with Kobe back then. It is more reasonable for Linji and Diaoyutai to be representatives of Yanjing Chinese Food at the same time, right?

"Then when are we going to talk to Diaoyutai about this?"

Zeng Xiaoqi couldn't wait, for fear that Diaoyutai would be invited by other gourmet shows later.

But thinking about the fact that there is no competing program in Yanjing, I feel a little relieved.

Lin Xu picked up a salt-baked cashew nut and put it into his mouth, chewing slowly:

"Tomorrow. Tomorrow morning, I will drive you to Diaoyutai to discuss the cooperation with Director Liao. By the way, tell my senior brother so that he is ready to show his face on camera."

"it is good!"

The dishes came up one by one.

Everyone chatted while eating, and when the steam pot chicken came up, the ladies immediately rushed to drink the soup bowls.

We are usually good sisters and friends, but when faced with this kind of soup that is beautifying and nourishing, everyone is a warrior fighting alone.

No sisters!

Lin Xu didn't compete with them, instead he ate rock candy elbows.

In northern banquets, chicken, fish, and elbows are collectively referred to as the three major dishes, which are indispensable dishes on the banquet.

But today, in addition to these three items, there are roast whole lamb and roast suckling pig, which are considered high-end configurations. As for other dishes, they are also the signature dishes of the store.

In the past, Geng Lishan locked himself in his study and ignored everyone, but today he happily introduced the dishes on the table to his relatives.

Every time a dish is served, he carefully talks about the allusions and characteristics of the dish, really giving the guests a good refreshment on the theoretical knowledge of food.

After the big pieces were loaded, Geng Lishan got up and began to toast.

After paying respects to the faculty and staff of Haidian Middle School, and having a drink with Professor Cui, Geng Lishan came to Lin Xu with a glass of wine:
"Little friend Lin, come here, my brother and I will go together."

brother?

The corners of Geng Lele's parents twitched.

This is really too much to drink.

Geng Lele was quite happy, holding the wine bottle and said with a smile:

"Grandpa Lin, let me fill up the wine for you."

Lin Xu: "..."

"A little thing about my granddaughter before I got married"

Although he and Geng Lishan have always been friends with each other, but today he opened his mouth to call him brother in front of everyone, which made him feel a little regretful.

It also saves the embarrassing moment of encountering such a super senior.

Especially in front of Lele's parents, there is a feeling of taking advantage of the Geng family.

He laughed twice:
"Everything is different, everything is different."

Originally, she prevaricated and treated it as the past, but Geng Lele didn't intend to end it like this.

She smiled and imitated the plot in "Charlotte Annoyance" and said:
"Grandpa, what are you looking for, sister will find it for you!"

Lin Xu raised his hand and scratched her mushroom head:

"At first, I thought I would make some lotus cakes to celebrate your successful entrance to school, but now, the lotus cakes are gone."

"I was wrong brother..."

"Really wrong?"

"Really, I was wrong from the bottom of my heart."

The temptation of the lotus cake is still great, even the quirky little mushroom head will obediently admit its mistake.

Lin Xu raised his wine glass and said:

"When you go to school, remember to keep a low profile and don't bully your classmates. The smart class accepts dozens of people a year, and all of them are top-notch. If you piss them off, you may be able to hold back some big tricks. Take it easy."

After speaking, he drank the white wine in the glass in one gulp.

As soon as he drank it, he regretted it.

The last time the toast went so smoothly, it was because Shu Yun replaced the baijiu with sprite that had been shaken flat, but today the glass was the correct Erguotou, and the Erguotou was still used.

This mouthful was stuffy, and my head suddenly buzzed.

"readily!"

Geng Lishan sighed in admiration, but he didn't know that his god-brother he had just met almost failed him.

When the Geng family was looking for someone else to toast, Lin Xu hurriedly put two mouthfuls of food into his mouth to suppress the surge of alcohol.

Reminiscent of the last time when he was still talking and laughing after drinking, Shu Yun still felt that he was not enjoying himself when he was not full, but today...

Alcohol hurts people!
"Xubao, do you want to make lotus flower cakes?"

While eating, Shen Baobao came over, and Chen Yan, Dou Wenjing, Zeng Xiaoqi and others beside him also pricked up their ears, obviously very interested.

He put a piece of refreshing little kimchi into his mouth, and said while eating:

"I plan to make it, but I may not have time in these two days... I will let you know when I make it. As for learning, forget it. You need to have a certain pastry foundation to make lotus cakes."

Upon hearing this, Chen Yan pouted immediately.

Tch, don't learn if you don't let me learn, and secretly do it with Yueyue in the West Fourth Ring villa.

However, thinking about the last time I vowed to make custard mooncakes, but finally made custard glutinous rice cakes, Chef Chen suddenly lost the enthusiasm to create with his cousin.

It's so heart-wrenching to meet a pig teammate who is holding back.

The ancients said it rightly, when the heavens are about to place great responsibilities on people, they must first suffer from their ambitions, starve their bodies, and empty them... Forget it, I'll wait to eat the finished product made by my brother-in-law.

After the banquet is over.

The store still prepares souvenirs for everyone.

After all, it's Geng Lele's school entrance feast, so don't worry about my dual identities as grandfather and brother.

After the guests left, Lin Xu planned to leave work early.

Erguotou wine is really not suitable for drinking two or two in one go, it can kill you.

the next morning.

Lin Xu woke up refreshed, and the dizziness caused by drinking yesterday disappeared.

It made him feel like he was playing an old game.

In the ancient game of killing monsters, every time you go to the inn to take a rest when you are short of qi and blood, your qi and blood will be restored, and the negative effects on your body will disappear.

Tsk, this system can't really be changed by the magic of the game, can it?
When I came to the store, the fish porridge I ate this morning was served with small fried dough sticks and pancake rolls.

Lin Xu took a freshly baked pancake, spread some special noodle sauce on it, put a few pieces of crisp and tender lettuce leaves, and finally put a sausage that was fried golden on the surface, rolled it up and took a bite.

Well, enjoyable!

I didn't eat much after drinking that cup of Erguotou last night.

As a result, when you wake up in the morning with an empty stomach, it feels so good to take a bite of the thin fritters with crispy lettuce.

After eating one, the fish fillet porridge was almost as good.

This kind of porridge is very easy to make. Cook the porridge first, and when cooking the porridge, cut the fish fillets and marinate for a while.

When the porridge is ready, add it, stir it, turn off the heat and simmer for a minute, so that the umami taste of the fish meat can be completely melted into the rice porridge. This kind of fish porridge tastes very delicious.

Of course, when cooking porridge, add a spoonful of lard to the pot.

This kind of rice porridge is not only fragrant, but also has a different taste.

Lin Xu had almost finished eating, so he rolled up another piece of cake, put it in a lunch box and went to the back area, calling a certain baby who was still drooling and sleeping to get up for breakfast.

nine in the morning.

He drove his X5 to the TV station, picked up Zeng Xiaoqi who was wearing a black sportswear and a baseball cap, and drove all the way to Diaoyutai.

Director Zeng is in charge of the program of Tasting the World now.

So this time Zhen Wensheng didn't have to go there again. After the whole channel got up, Mr. Zhen also put on the director's airs.

"Can I have lunch there at noon?"

Zeng Xiaoqi felt that she was led badly by Dou Wenjing, Chen Yan and Shu Yun.

It turns out that she is intellectual and elegant. Although she likes food, she always eats in moderation and never overeats.

Since getting to know those bad Ji friends, the originally intellectual and elegant beauty host has become a gluttonous girl, and her mind is full of eating and drinking all day long, which is so frustrating.

She also wants to change herself to be a refreshing big beauty.

But every time the will to lose weight will be ruthlessly corroded by delicious food.

It's as if some netizens can't hold back the idea of ​​eating and eating every Thursday.

Ugh……

The road to weight loss is so bumpy!

When he came to Diaoyutai, Lin Xu didn't go to look for his brother, but drove directly to Director Liao's office.

After getting off the car, as soon as he entered the door, he saw Bai Pengbo making tea.

"Lin Xu is here. Director Liao is waiting for you inside. He attaches great importance to this cooperation, and he even plans to call all the chefs over for a meeting later."

Lin Xu took a snack bag from Lin Kee Gourmet and handed it over:

"This is a fish fillet that I baked in my free time, and I asked Assistant Bai to give me some pointers."

"Oh, thank you very much, I am not qualified to give you advice. Netizens say that Lin Kee does not sell it to the outside world. It is delicious. I have to taste it later."

After chatting with Bai Pengbo, Lin Xu and Zeng Xiaoqi walked into Director Liao's office together.

Liao Jinming was sitting on the office chair, with mangosteen in the teacup on the table. When he saw Lin Xu coming in, he got up quickly and said:

"Welcome, welcome. As soon as Boss Lin came, he immediately made my place flourish."

Lin Xu chatted with him with a smile, and after exchanging pleasantries, he started talking about business.

Zeng Xiaoqi said:
"If the chefs of Diaoyutai are willing to film the program, the banner of Diaoyutai will be used many times in the program, and at the end of the film, we will thank Diaoyutai for its strong support."

As long as you can participate, everything is easy to talk about.

After all, Diaoyutai is well-known, and the program group can increase its ratings with a little effort.

Liao Jinming didn't care too much about this matter. He just wanted to complete the tasks assigned by the leaders, attract as many customers as possible, and increase the revenue of each building.

On this basis, it is a piece of cake for the chefs to record the show and cook.

It also happens to provide a display platform for the group of chefs who have nowhere to vent their energy.

Last time I heard that the chief chefs of other foreign-related hotels wanted to encircle Diaoyutai, but they were overwhelmed by Lin Xu's Qingshui Furong.

What a great opportunity.

Just like that, a few counselors were ruined.

If the younger generation can't beat Diaoyutai, shouldn't the middle-aged generation have to work harder to get revenge?
As a result, the chefs of those restaurants didn't fart, which made Diaoyutai miss an opportunity to act aggressively.

Now a new opportunity opens up.

Liao Jinming could finally clean himself up.

After the discussion, Liao Jinming, on behalf of Diaoyutai's catering department, signed a cooperation agreement with Zeng Xiaoqi, the program director of Taste of the World.

After signing, the matter is settled.

Not only Zeng Xiaoqi wanted to have a meal here, but Lin Xu also felt that they were all here, and it would be a bit strange to leave without a meal.

In order to stay up until noon, the two of them took part in the seminar organized by the catering department with a posture of thinking about the show.

The content of the meeting was very simple, that is, let these chefs find time to go to the TV station to record the program.

Before going there, communicate with the TV station about the recording content, and let me know the cooking time of the whole dish by the way, so it is better to control the time when recording over there.

Then start to determine the candidates to participate in the program.

Let’s not talk about Guo Weidong, the chief chef of Building No. [-]. He definitely won’t be able to go, because the business in Building No. [-] is the best, so we have to keep this chief chef to take charge of the place.

Except for chefs with good business, those who have reception tasks or communication tasks are not allowed to go.

As a result, almost half of the chefs lost their smiles on their faces.

No way to show off your cooking skills in front of a TV audience.

Liao Jinming said:
"It's not for fun to ask you to go to the TV station. You must show the professionalism and high-end of Diaoyutai's catering department. Zhenhua, don't you know how to make noodles? Show it at that time, so that the audience can experience high-end Chinese-style noodles. What does it look like, to save those people from opening and closing their mouths, it’s Long Yin Long Yin, in my opinion, isn’t it made of gelatin + pigment + mold? What’s so rare?”

Noodles?

Is it the kind of fruit made of noodles?

It seems that this is going to be a big move!

Sitting in the meeting room, Lin Xu and Zeng Xiaoqi felt like mobilizing before participating in an independent team battle.

Director Liao, who usually has no temper and looks like a good old man, unexpectedly seems to be possessed by Li Yunlong, and is fiercely assigned to attack... oh no, he is assigned to shoot tasks.

Qiu Zhenhua pushed the gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose:
"Okay Director Liao, since you have spoken, I will not hide my secrets when I go to shoot."

Liao Jinming nodded, then looked at Song Dahai:
"There are also a lot of high-end dishes in terms of aquatic products. Don't forget to show them. Make a few high-end dishes from Diaoyutai. The more fancy the better."

After a round of explanations, when it was Xie Baomin's turn, Liao Jinming drank the Luo Han Guo tea in the teacup, and his voice became serious:

"Baomin, please save some. Don't make any dishes that your master has signed a non-disclosure agreement. Some dishes are really not suitable for display. Don't make me embarrass your master."

Xie Baomin grinned:

"Director Liao, you are so biased."

Liao Jinming glanced at him:
"You were originally asked to record the first episode this afternoon, why don't you go to Weidong?"

"No, no, Dongdong is too busy there, let me take it easy, and I will never mess around."

After the meeting, Lin Xu drove Zeng Xiaoqi and Xie Baomin back to Building No. [-].

In the car, Xie Baomin was still brooding over Liao Jinming's arrangement:

"You said that our master has nothing to do with so many original dishes, so that we have mastered them but can't show them. What's the difference between this and Jinyi Night Walk?"

Lin Xu said while controlling the speed of the car:
"Just do what Director Liao tells you to do. Let's get acquainted with the audience first... What are we eating in Building No. [-] at noon today?"

Ask about the food first, go to Building No. [-] if you want it to be delicious, or find a building in advance to turn around if it’s not.

Anyway, the eighteen buildings are not all unpalatable meals.

Xie Baomin didn't think about it, he looked out of the car window and said listlessly:

"In the morning, Lao Cheng got a few three scales, that is, Northeast carp, and prepared Molly stewed fish and three delicacies from the ground. It's autumn, and it's the season to eat three delicacies from the ground."

this is not bad.

Lin Xu has never eaten Molly stewed fish, but he knows the three delicacies.

This dish may not look like a vegetarian dish, but it goes far beyond the average meat dish.

Then go to Building No. [-] and feel the difference between the local delicacies made by Diaoyutai and the school restaurant.

When we arrived at Building No. [-], Lin Xu parked the car, and it was already eleven o'clock.

When several people walked into the building together, Zeng Xiaoqi asked:
"Chef Xie, the recording of the program will start this afternoon. What dish are you going to cook? Let me be mentally prepared."

It was the first time to cooperate with the head chef of a state banquet, which made Miss Zeng somewhat uneasy.

The frustration on Xie Baomin's face has been swept away, he said with a bright face:
"Since Director Liao asked me to make high-end meals, I'll just use the Chinese-style noodles I learned recently. I can definitely match the fake with the real one, and the taste is also very good."

and many more……

Didn't Director Liao ask Chef Qiu to make this noodle?
Lin Xu asked curiously:
"Brother, if you make the meals that Chef Qiu is going to cook, what do you ask Chef Qiu to do?"

Xie Baomin laughed:
"The TV station is so far away, it's not easy for Qiu Qiu to travel. I just did it for him to save him from running back and forth... There are other chefs, and I also help cook their representative dishes. Our old Xie is so self-sacrificing. So impartial!"

Lin Xu: "..."

As far as your thinking of "walking the way of others, leaving others nowhere to go", why not be caught in a sack.

I really hope that day comes sooner...

--------

Reply to everyone's discussion, and when I write about cooking in the future, I will try to write more interestingly, and intersperse the plot by the way.It's my fault that the plot is too thin because of focusing on cooking skills.

In addition, the scenes and characters will gradually appear later, so don't be impatient.The plot of the noodle fruit was decided a long time ago, and readers in the group have mentioned it several times, and in the video of Lao Fangu, there is no mention of the filling of the noodle fruit, so I will rewrite it.

Everyone who likes to discuss food, remember to join the group. On the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, I specially sent a 21 yuan red envelope in the group, but the result was 16 yuan returned the next day... I didn’t expect so much money in our group Reader friends like dung.

The way to enter the group is the author at the beginning of the chapter. If you have 3000 fans, you can click on the link to join the group with one click. Other platforms don’t have this function yet. I’m really sorry.
