Chapter 656 Passion - Burn!

"Brother, what's going on here? Why are there so many people watching?"

The young man who was blocked outside asked the person next to him. He had just gone to the bathroom and when he came back, he saw a big movement here.

"Big news. It's said that this hotel is trying to show off its personality, and this team competition is about to end in vain. Didn't you see that the booth outside still doesn't have a single dish?"

The man next to him told the young man the "explosive" information he heard and shared his pleasure in watching the excitement.

"I'll go, you're so awesome. No wonder I heard that President Zhang and Mr. Liu are here. What's the origin of this Star Hotel? It's so unique, isn't it?"

The young man's words resonated with the man next to him. He nodded and agreed, "Who says it's not the case? If I hadn't received the news too late, I would have gone in to watch the excitement right now."

"Yes, this place is surrounded by three floors inside and three floors outside. Is it difficult to get in?"

The young man felt very regretful, so he had no choice but to retreat outside and took a photo, which clearly captured the display board of the Star Hotel.

Then I posted it on Moments, along with a piece of content that I thought was very eye-catching: "You got no results in the team competition, and you have to play with your personality at the Star Hotel. If you want to be famous, you have to do it early."

It only took two or three minutes after I posted it, and it immediately received likes and replies from friends in the catering industry, which made the young man very proud.

This kind of circle of friends is not an exception. With a lot of attention and forwarding, Xingchen Hotel became "ignited" in the catering circle.

"Manager, I'm sorry. My friends called me just now to ask if we were causing trouble during the game. There are already many posts online criticizing us."

Zhao Qiqi and Mu Qing had long been squeezed out of the crowd. Guo Kui and the others had been surrounded by the media and the crowd. It was impossible to get out.

And only the media inside knew the real situation. People outside spread rumors, making the whole scene start to get a little out of control.

"What's wrong? I think it's good. Since they want to help us with free publicity, let them do it."

Mu Qing has been paying attention to the dynamics on the field, and is also checking the developments on the Internet at any time. As things evolve, Mu Qing no longer worries as much as she did at the beginning.

“But, but, they are slandering us, don’t they want to lose the reputation of the hotel?
Do you want me to contact Hao Minming and ask her to communicate with the media so that we can issue a statement or something? "

Zhao Qiqi has never encountered such a thing. As a member of the hotel, it seems unquestionable to maintain the hotel's honor.

"You're right. We haven't even cooked a single dish yet. This is the truth."

Mu Qing's words made Zhao Qiqi a little sluggish, did such irresponsible words come from her manager's mouth?
"Manager? You don't have a fever today, do you?"

Zhao Qiqi suddenly wondered if her manager might have a cold, so she reached out and touched Mu Qing's forehead to strengthen her judgment.

"What are you thinking about? It's rare that so many hotels across the country are helping us promote it today. It's not easy to come to the capital. It's good to be famous."

Mu Qing was thinking about how to expand the influence of the stars. Anyway, after Chu Yunfeng arrived, the "truth" would naturally be revealed to the world.

Now that people in so many hotels across the country know about the Star Hotel, there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with it, right?
And if Xingchen can win the championship in the end, it will further deepen Xingchen's impression among people in the catering industry across the country. This is something that no amount of money and energy can buy.

Good thing
"Manager, is this a stigma? If we want to be famous, we shouldn't do this, right? We want to get publicity."

When Zhao Qiqi mentioned the word "hype", she suddenly reacted and immediately gave herself a slap on the forehead.

"I understand, why am I so stupid?"

"Did you just find out today?"

Mu Qing smiled and patted the assistant's shoulder, then picked up her phone and checked the time, with a crescent-like smile on her lips.

In about 10 minutes, Chu Yunfeng was almost there.

The hotels that come to participate in the national competition are all selected after fierce competition, and they all have some influence in the local area.

The hotel's waiters, chefs and administrative staff have in-depth exchanges and cooperation with local catering companies in their circle of friends.

After this information was sent out, it quickly aroused everyone's interest, and they all went online to inquire about the origin of the Star Hotel.

The popular events of the past few days have naturally been revealed by everyone. The thing that has the greatest relationship with Xingchen is the matter of the cold dish master.

This incident triggered a big battle between Chu Yunfeng and Yamada Masaichi, and many videos were circulated at the scene, which immediately made everyone mutter in their hearts.

"Let me go, this hotel is pretty cool. I'm going up against the Maple Bridge Group by myself. The manager seems to be a woman. She looks like a tough guy!"

"Isn't that so fucking tough? I made snacks in a five-star hotel and managed to turn the situation around. Kesla is so awesome!"

"Are the people in this crazy friend circle crazy? How can such an awesome hotel be so devoid of character? Are the people at the scene blind?"

"Your sister, the people here are spreading rumors, right? This hotel is like an immortal little strongman. Whoever quarrels with you will die. Aren't you afraid of being slapped in the face in a moment?"

After everyone gradually got to know the Star Hotel, everyone gradually began to pay attention to the extremely exquisite and artistically valuable dishes.

Nine-color saving box!

So this dish started to appear in everyone's replies, and then some people started to criticize it.

"Brother, don't spread rumors. Maybe they are making a dish called Nine Colors Box. Don't you know that making this dish requires a lot of preparation?"

"Squeeze in and help my buddies take a look. Are you cooking this dish? This dish is very retro and fashionable."

"Can you take a photo of the people inside? You can't see anything just by taking a photo of the people surrounding them."

As everyone learned more and more information, the replies in the circle of friends began to change their style, and the plot changed instantly.

The person who just posted the message to Moments suddenly realized that he seemed to have made a big mistake, and he had already turned around and returned to his own booth.

But now that the situation has changed, they are even more curious about the dishes that Xingchen is about to launch. Is it really the nine-color dumpling box?

That dish does look very exquisite, so hurry up and take a look.

As a result, more and more people gathered outside the booth of Xingchen Hotel
This also caused a very strange phenomenon, that is, the people inside did not know what Xingchen was cooking, but the people outside could not enter, thinking that the people inside had seen it.

The media interviewed on the spot today are almost all locals in the capital. They seem to have a little impression of the Star Hotel, as if they have heard about it in the past two days.

There seems to be some important news on the Internet that mentions this hotel, but when I think about it again, I don’t seem to remember it.

At this time, I seemed to hear a noisy voice coming from the crowd behind: "Please give me, borrow, borrow."

"Don't squeeze. Why are you squeezing?"

"If you want to watch it, just get a stool and stand and watch it. How about a squeeze?"

"It's summer now, not winter. It's very warm when you're squeezed in, right? Why don't you get a ladder and fly over there yourself?"

The car that picked up Chu Yunfeng and President Hou was the association's car. He was very familiar with the roads in the capital, so he took a shortcut and quickly sent them to the venue.

As soon as Chu Yunfeng came in, he hurriedly ran towards Xingchen's booth, but when he arrived, he was dumbfounded and felt very puzzled when he saw the crowded scene.

The protagonist hasn't even appeared yet, why are you guys getting excited?

Could it be that Guo Kui was in trouble?

I glanced around and didn't see Mu Qing. I didn't have time to call her. I had to go in first to check the situation.

But as soon as he got rid of someone, he started to get yelled at, and the people around him also started to yell at him.

What's happening here?
Not sure whose territory this is?
"Guo Kui? What's the situation? Are you not letting anyone in?"

Chu Yunfeng found that he really couldn't get rid of the crowd, so he had to shout loudly. The voice was loud enough, loud enough, and domineering enough, and the booth immediately fell silent.

"Madman, madman is here!"

Guo Kui heard Chu Yunfeng's voice and finally felt that the pressure on his body was greatly relieved. President Zhang and Mr. Liu have always been here, and there is always a sense of tension and oppression.

"Madman, come in quickly, hurry up, Cuihua wants you to serve sauerkraut!"

Guo Kui imitated Chu Yunfeng and roared at the top of his lungs, and then started yelling at everyone to make way.

Mu Qing heard Chu Yunfeng's voice and felt happy in her heart, but now the crowd was blocking her and she couldn't see him.

But when Guo Kui shouted, Mu Qing couldn't help but wonder, who is this "Cuihua"?
"I borrowed it, I borrowed it, I'm the chef here, thank you, thank you!"

Guo Kui's efforts were still effective. A narrow passage gradually appeared inside and outside, and Chu Yunfeng squeezed in with difficulty, leaning sideways.

"You're finally here, hurry up, everyone is waiting for you."

Seeing Chu Yunfeng squeeze in, Guo Kui stretched out his hand to pull him up, put an apron on him and began to urge him.

"Sorry to keep you waiting for so long. How are the ingredients prepared?"

After Chu Yunfeng squeezed in, all his attention was focused on the ingredients, and he did not notice that there were three different eyes in the crowd staring at him.

"It's almost done. The remaining meat is still a little bit too hot. You can do other things first."

Hu Yue responded to Chu Yunfeng while handling the preserved egg in her hand. The preserved egg was just peeled off now, and Chu Yunfeng would be able to use it soon.

"Okay, how much time is left for Daotang?"

Chu Yunfeng continued to ask while washing his hands.

"It's almost half an hour away, we're waiting too."

Nine-color dumpling box is Chu Yunfeng's main dish, but Guo Kui, Hu Yue, and the other two chefs also have their own specialties, and they are all waiting for the soup stock.

"OK, the time should be fine, brothers, let's start working."

After Chu Yunfeng washed his hands, he suddenly became excited. Although he didn't know why so many people gathered around the scene, since there was no problem with Guo Kui, it was no big deal.

[System task: Get No. 1 in the team competition and individual competition.Special note: You need to get first place in both games, otherwise the mission will fail and you will not be able to receive the reward. 】

[Task reward: 1000 million experience points. 】

Just when Chu Yunfeng stepped onto the kitchen counter, the system's sound rang.

"Two firsts?"

Chu Yunfeng was secretly delighted. Wasn't this giving experience points to his buddies?

Isn’t it just a joke to get first place with just one dish called Nine Colors Bunk Box?

The more he thought about it, the more excited Chu Yunfeng became, with a strong fighting spirit on his face, as if he had been given a shot of chicken blood.

Mr. Liu observed very carefully and nodded with satisfaction after seeing Chu Yunfeng's condition.

This young man is neither arrogant nor arrogant, and he is very confident in his cooking skills. He gets excited as soon as he starts cooking, which shows that he is very pursuing cooking skills.

It seems that he was like this when he was young, and I heard that he refused the invitation to the state banquet. It seems that this person is relatively pure.

"Chu Yunfeng, he is Chu Yunfeng!"

"Let me go, isn't this Boss Chu? The one who competed with Yamada Shoichi two days ago?"

"I remembered, isn't the manager of the Star Hotel his girlfriend?"

"Could it be that he is going to cook that dish today? No wonder the place has been busy for a long time and has not cooked a single dish. If it is really that dish, then it should win the championship today, right?"

"Nine-Color Saving Box! It must be this dish. Before, some people questioned that he didn't make this dish. Today, I can see him making it himself at the scene. His strength is a shame!"

After the media in front recognized Chu Yunfeng, they all became excited.

Everyone is more or less aware of the "disgrace" that colleagues encountered for the first time, so they know that Chu Yunfeng has his own traffic, and this is an excellent interview opportunity.

"Boss Chu, can you accept an interview?"

"Boss Chu, I'm from the Beijing Daily. I have two questions. Is it convenient for you now?"

"Boss Chu, I promise not to hinder your cooking, I just ask a question!"

Soon the media were ready to start interviews. People on the outside could feel the excitement of the people inside. It seemed that it was indeed true. The person who just entered said he was a chef?
Who is it?
"I'm sorry, I'm a little busy right now. I'll accept the interview when I'm done. Thank you!"

Multitasking is a piece of cake for Chu Yunfeng, but when cooking, Chu Yunfeng doesn't want to be distracted.

This is a kind of pursuit and belief in cooking skills. Cooking should be done attentively and without distraction is the way to go.

After hearing Chu Yunfeng's words, Mr. Liu nodded with satisfaction, and already had the urge to call the chairman of the state banquet organizing committee, telling them to quickly recruit this kid.

After being excited for a while, Mr. Liu secretly made up his mind that if this little guy showed extraordinary cooking skills in a while, he would really have to have a good talk with him.

Chu Yunfeng had no idea what the old man next to him was planning. When he took out an exquisite lacquer box from underneath, the media at the scene went crazy.
The passion in Chu Yunfeng's heart also began to burn.
