Chapter 804: Can you be a professional actor?
"What, do you know Boss Chu from the first rank?
And have you tried the food from the boutique? "

Nava instantly jumped up from the sofa. His expression was surprised at first, but then turned to envy.

The dishes in the boutique can only be tasted at an auction. Being able to spend so much money to taste them can only mean one thing, that is, the dishes are absolutely delicious.

People who spend money are not stupid. Who would spend so much money to eat something that doesn’t taste good?
"Yes, we were very lucky that time. It was also reported in the news. You will know as soon as you look it up. The dish is called Nine Colors Cake Box. The Michelin three-star chef even competed with Boss Chu on his cooking skills."

Ma Fu's expression was very indifferent, but it was just as simple as tasting a dish, it seemed that it was not very important or something worth showing off to him.

If Chu Yunfeng heard this at the scene, he would definitely despise Ma Fu. I don’t know who strongly asked Jiuse Tanhe to make more spicy dishes, and he was the most active in grabbing the dishes.

"Then, can you taste the dishes from the boutique at any time?"

Nava already has a feeling of admiration for Ma Fu in his heart. Since he can taste the dishes of the boutique, his relationship with Boss Chu must be relatively good.

If it is possible to pass Ma Fu
"Oh, my God, that's impossible, although I also have that idea, but how is it possible, the quota of the boutique needs to be auctioned.

But there is no problem in inviting Boss Chu out to cook. I once had a European client who asked me to find a professional chef, so I recommended Boss Chu to them.

Then they were very satisfied, and in the end they even formed a deep friendship, so it was all fate. "

Ma Fu avoided the important and lightly described the fact that he invited Chu Yunfeng to cook in Europe, and described the old incident that almost ruined his reputation as the successful completion of the client's commission.

Of course, these words were whitewashed, but Ma Fu still remembered that Chu Yunfeng helped him in this critical moment. If it weren't for Chu Yunfeng, he would have been trampled into mud by his opponent.

In addition, if Orlando adds fuel to the fire within the circle, then his career will be over, including his own European industry, which will suffer a devastating blow.

Therefore, Ma Fu has always been very grateful and respectful to Chu Yunfeng in his heart. Although he looks so young, Ma Fu has never looked down on him based on his age since then.

"I see, that's a bit of a pity. The food in this boutique is indeed very exquisite, but it's a pity that I can't try it.

In fact, Boss Chu’s restaurant was on the inspection list for our visit to China this time, but the leader of the group denied it. He said that Sichuan cuisine only makes spicy dishes, and there was no need to go to Chengdu to inspect it. It would be a waste of time. .

I didn't say anything at first, but then I saw the report about Michelin's review of Yipin and started to check it out. Only then did I find that Yipin is actually very good at making non-spicy dishes.

So I brought this matter up, but they still met with opposition. The reason is that Yipin is just a small restaurant, a one-man restaurant, and there are at least dozens of tables for a state banquet. Can he do it alone?
This reason made me somewhat unable to refute it, but I also pointed out that Boss Chu still has chef friends who can help. If we plan carefully, there should be no problem.

But those people still refused to let go, thinking that the risk was too great, which made me very unhappy, so I started to quarrel fiercely with them.

How can you know that others can't do it if you don't investigate it?

As a special envoy, I was specially assigned by the princess to supervise this matter. I must be responsible for the tasks assigned by the princess. I must recommend the best food back.

But I only have the power of supervision, so I am a little constrained in doing things, which makes this trip to China very regretful.

Oh, I'm sorry, I'm a little excited. I'm sorry that you heard some complaints. It's really rude. "

Nava sincerely apologized with his hands folded. He didn't even understand why his emotions were suddenly aroused just now, and he confided all the unpleasantness that had happened before.

And it still had a hint of secrecy, not to mention it was for someone he had just met. Although he was a celebrity, it was still a bit inappropriate.

Ma Fu always had a smile on his face, but he had already begun to curse secretly in his heart.

Grandma, what is going on? Doesn’t the list indicate the relationship between Yipin and Xingchen Hotel?
Yipin and Xingchen can support each other if anything happens, so how can there be a problem of "insufficient firepower"?
No wonder these people are unwilling to go to Rongcheng to investigate. It turns out that the root of the problem is here. Why don't they learn more about the restaurants on the list?
"Hmm~! It doesn't matter, sometimes it's fun to be someone else's audience. No, I discovered a very strange problem.

Don’t you know the relationship between Yipin and a hotel called Star Hotel?

As far as I know, Boss Chu is the honorary chef of this hotel, and he can come over to cook at any time, and if there is anything to do with Yipin, Star Hotel will also help. "

Ma Fu suppressed the depression and helplessness in his heart and told the relationship between Yipin and Xingchen. If he had known this reason, there would be no need for him to eat with them these days.

He spent a lot of time trying to find out the information, but he didn't expect that the most important information was unexpectedly presented to him just now.

It seems that I am not suitable for underground work, so I should just stick to my old job.

"What~! Is there such a thing?"

Nawa was stunned for a moment, his mouth opened wide, as if he was so shocked by the news that he was about to lose his mind.

Seeing his dull eyes, Ma Fu also felt a little tired, but he still pretended to be very calm and said: "That's true. The female boss of Xingchen I have met is Boss Chu's daughter. friend."

"So it's this kind of relationship. It's really unusual. Wait, can you see if it's this hotel?"

After being briefly surprised, Nawa quickly took out a piece of paper full of lists from his clothes, pointed to the last box on the list and asked.

"Yes, it's this hotel, Star Hotel. The Chinese characters are correct, but I can't understand Thai."

Ma Fu took one look and answered immediately, feeling quite speechless. Although these two restaurants were entered one after another, there were no notes on the list.

However, if you think about it, you can understand that the remarks on this kind of thing do not seem to be in compliance with the standards. It can only be said that Sichuan cuisine was tripped up by itself.

"Really? This is great, Mr. Ma Fu, I have a heartfelt request. Can you help me contact Mr. Chu? I would like to ask if he is interested in going to Thailand to give the princess a birthday banquet? "

Nava became excited instantly, and the last obstacle that troubled him disappeared. If the princess approved of the Sichuan food he recommended, then he would become the most dazzling handsome boy.

And maybe the princess will hold them accountable for their dereliction of duty, so this mission will reveal her face, which will be unimaginably helpful to her status in the future.

"It's no problem to call, but I guess he may not have time, because I saw on the news that his restaurant has just been rated as a Black Pearl Three Diamond restaurant, and he is busy making set menus."

Ma Fu was not very excited and immediately took out his mobile phone to call Chu Yunfeng. That would definitely arouse Nava's suspicion. You have to be patient when fishing.

"Please, Mr. Ma Fu, although I know this is very presumptuous, but I can only make my final effort through this channel.

If I can't let the princess taste the most delicious food on the important day, it would be my dereliction of duty. Please help me, thank you! "

Na Wa put his hands together in a very respectful manner, and Ma Fu couldn't act too much, so he thought for a moment and took out his cell phone to call.

In the Yipin store, Chu Yunfeng, Guo Kui and Hu Yue were busy cooking dishes at this time. His cell phone was always on the kitchen counter, waiting for Ma Fu's call.

Ma Fu had already sent a message to Chu Yunfeng when he went to the coffee shop, asking him to wait for his good news.

When he saw that Ma Fu was calling, Chu Yunfeng laughed immediately: "Brothers, come live!"

The two people immediately knew that there must be good news from Ma Fu. They cheered and immediately fell silent. Chu Yunfeng pressed the speakerphone and said casually while cooking: "Hello, Mr. Ma Fu."

"Boss Chu, I'm sorry to disturb you so late. I have a special situation that I want to confirm with you. I was experiencing delicious food here in Yangcheng and met a friend from Thailand.

He said that he was the special envoy of the Thai princess, and this time he came to China to find food, and he planned to cook some light and delicious dishes for the princess' birthday banquet.

It is said that your restaurant is on one of their recommendation lists. Is that true?
The other party wants me to help ask if you have time and interest to go to Thailand? "

Ma Fu spoke Chinese, and Na Wa couldn't understand it very well, but it looked like Ma Fu was really trying to help him with his inquiries seriously. Unfortunately, he didn't speak Chinese, and he wanted to grab the phone and call Chu Yunfeng directly. dialogue.

In order to prove that the other person was Chu Yunfeng, Ma Fu pressed the hands-free button from the beginning, and when Ma Fu made the call, Nava started recording on his mobile phone.

It wasn't that he didn't believe Ma Fu, but that Nava wanted to complete the task perfectly and also wanted to know Chu Yunfeng's true thoughts. After all, there was always a difference between what he heard and what others relayed.

"It seems to be the case, but didn't they say that they would send people over to investigate first? It seems that the time is these few days, but it seems that no one came over?
Besides, I'm very busy during this period. This package business has just started. I don't have time to go to Thailand. Please politely refuse for me. I'm still busy, so I won't say more. Bye! "

After Chu Yunfeng finished speaking, he hung up the phone "anxiously", which immediately caused a burst of laughter from the two people next to him.

"Boss Chu, you really don't have time? Do you want to go or not?"

Guo Kui saw that Chu Yunfeng was thinking a lot but said he didn't want it. He laughed so hard that he couldn't straighten his waist. How could he not tease him?

Not to be outdone, Hu Yue imitated Ma Fu's voice and said, "Oh, well, since Boss Chu doesn't have time, let's forget about it. I'll just tell him not to even think about it."

"Do not laugh!
Can you be a professional actor? "

Chu Yunfeng knocked on the table with his hand and asked the two of them to pay attention to the impact. However, as soon as he finished saying this, he couldn't hold back anymore and he laughed himself. How could he not go if he had the opportunity?

Of course, if you want your plan to succeed, you shouldn't appear to be in a hurry. The higher you raise your profile and the harder it is for others to get it, the more proactive and cherished it will be.

Ma Fu hung up the phone with regret on his face. Even Nava could see that the call was somewhat fruitless, but he didn't know the reason, so he asked questions eagerly.

"Boss Chu said that he doesn't have time. He has to be busy with the set menus in the store recently. After all, we are just starting out, so it's not easy to just leave it alone.

And he also talked about the list, saying that you didn't send anyone to contact him, and it seemed that you weren't interested in the dishes he cooked, so he didn't care.

Originally, I wanted to say a few nice words to you, but unfortunately he was busy making set meals at the moment and hung up the phone directly. "

Ma Fu spread his hands, expressing that he was also helpless, but Nawa immediately became anxious. There was hope in this, but he didn't expect that he didn't have time, and he wasn't interested.

How can this make me feel relieved?
Of course, further efforts need to be made, so Nava requested again: "Mr. Ma Fu, I have told you about this matter before, mainly because there are some misunderstandings.

But I still insist on going to the first-level inspection. As the princess's special envoy, I must complete the task successfully. Please help me communicate with Boss Chu.

Let's see if I can go and make contact and express my belated apology to Boss Chu, as well as the kind invitation from Her Royal Highness the Princess.

Excellent chefs should come to Thailand to show off their great cooking skills, and this is also a good story. A few years ago, another princess also invited a Sichuan chef to cook in Thailand.

That time we mainly made spicy dishes, this time we mainly made light dishes. If Sichuan cuisine can even show off its skills in these two extreme dishes, there will definitely be a very good one in the industry. Prestige, right?
Please, if this matter is completed, I will ask the princess to give you a commission, which is a thank you for your great help, is that okay, Mr. Ma Fu? "

Nava can be said to have taken everything into consideration, including industry influence and Mafu's interests.

For a chef, industry influence should be very attractive to them, and if you want to get the full help of a food hunter like Ma Fu, then a financial offensive is definitely indispensable.

And Nava also made some small calculations, that is, he would pay commission after success. This was something he had no control over. After all, the decision-making power was not in his hands.

And if you ask yourself to give a commission now, how can you get it?
Ma Fu was shocked. This guy actually made all the excuses for himself. If he didn't agree, it seemed a little unreasonable, and he would be embarrassed.

So Ma Fu made another phone call to express Nava's intention, and the two of them immediately booked a night flight and flew towards Chengdu.
