No regrets ninety-two

Chapter 478 Countdown to Opening

Cheng Ling was really taken aback.

Huatian Hotel, this is the best five-star hotel in Changshi. Even if she is the section chief of the district education bureau, this standard is seriously exceeded.

Wu Xiaozheng said with a smile: "Chief Cheng, don't worry, you don't need to be responsible for the cost, just don't worry."

Wu Xiaozheng stopped the car at the entrance of the hotel.

Xiong Guoping, Shen Mo, Guan Zijun and the other three had already been waiting there.

Cheng Ling was taken aback again.

Silence and Guan Zijun's respect is fine, after all, they are young people.

But Xiong Guoping's aura is not a simple person at first glance!
But this imposing middle-aged man was also polite in front of Wu Xiaozheng, keeping his posture very low.

What's happening here?
What surprised her even more was still behind.

Cheng Ling found out that Boss Xiong had arranged for Wu Xiaozheng a luxurious executive suite second only to the presidential suite, and also a deluxe standard room for them. Boss Xiong even asked her: Do you want to arrange a single room?
This reception standard is really too high!

Especially for Wu Xiaozheng, is it necessary to arrange such a suite?
Everything that follows is also high spec.

According to Cheng Ling's arrangement, because it's still early, she has to report to the competition organizing committee of the Education Department first, and also visit the competition venue by the way, so as to be safe.

Xiong Guoping was also very considerate in this aspect: "Chief Cheng, I have already arranged the car for you. Wherever you want to go, just tell the driver."

Although the car is not as big as it is this time, it is at least a very good Crown!

Also, the reception banquet in the evening has already been arranged, and Xiong Guoping specifically told Cheng Ling not to make other arrangements.

This specification is too high!

The only thing Cheng Ling wondered was, why did Xiong Guoping enter Wu Xiaozheng's room immediately after explaining the matter, and shut the door firmly?

Naturally, Xiong Guoping must seize the time to negotiate with Wu Xiaozheng about the first branch of Chef Wu's restaurant in the provincial capital.

Silence began to report on the progress of the first branch.

In fact, there is no need to report.

In the past period of time, Mo Mo has been running back and forth between Changshi and Xiangshui. The renovation plan here was personally confirmed by Wu Xiaozheng, and Wu Xiaozheng also knew about the formal renovation start.

The reason why he is reporting now is just to report the latest progress to Wu Xiaozheng.

"According to the current progress, the decoration of the entire store can be completed between late June and the end of June, and it can be delivered in July. With a little preparation, there will be no problem opening in mid-July to late July."

Xiong Guoping is most concerned about the opening time.

Wu Xiaozheng thought for a moment.

"Don't be in a hurry to decide on the opening time. To be on the safe side, let's see the situation of the Xiangshui flagship store first."

According to Wu Xiaozheng's plan, the Xiangshui flagship store is scheduled to officially open on July [-]st, which is still more than a month away.

Wu Xiaozheng first asked a question: "How is the progress of the batch of chefs in our provincial vocational training school?"

This is what Wu Xiaozheng is most concerned about.

The key to the smooth opening of Chef Wu's restaurant lies in the chefs, and most of the people that Chef Wu sent to the provincial capital for training this time are novices without any foundation, and they must master it within a month. The basic skills of a Chinese chef are still somewhat difficult.

"Now there is a situation of mixed progress. The part with good talent and willingness to work hard can successfully complete the training at the end of this month, and it will not be a problem to return to Xiangshui to receive professional cooking skills training."

This is what Wu Xiaozheng expected.

As a profession of chef, the educational requirements are not too high, but it depends on both talent and personal effort.

Talents are different, personal attitudes are different, and progress is naturally different.

Wu Xiaozheng even knows that among the first batch of people who are progressing better now, they will continue to divide in the future.

According to the national standards of later generations, those who are now planning to work as chefs in Chef Wu will need to take special chef certificates in the future, ranging from elementary, intermediate, advanced, technician, and senior technician.

But even with a chef certificate, there are levels within Chef Wu. This level does not pay special attention to certificates, but to individual abilities.

The most powerful one is of course the executive chef. He is in charge of the entire restaurant’s kitchen, as well as the chef. He also supervises the purchase, sale, and inventory of all ingredients and condiments. All menus and recipes also need to be approved by him. ...

It can be said that the executive chef will be a very good person in the entire restaurant, and in a sense, his importance is no less than that of the store manager.

Next is the chef.

Take Chef Wu’s Xiangshui flagship store as an example, there are three kitchens on the third floor, each kitchen has a chef or even multiple chefs, and each chef is responsible for leading a team, specializing in the preparation of certain dishes. cooking.

The chef is equivalent to the role of the supervisor. He may not need to be proficient in every dish in this group, but he must have strong management skills and must be convincing in cooking.

Next is the second chef.

The second chef is a chef who is specialized in cooking certain dishes. They will be proficient in the cooking of certain dishes, and then when they gather together, they will form a complete recipe for the entire Chef Wu's restaurant.

It can be said that the second chef will be the foundation of the entire kitchen of Chef Wu's restaurant.

Next, there are kitchen helpers, handymen, etc. These people belong to the bottom of the kitchen.

Some of these bottom-level people stay at the bottom all their lives, while others can gradually develop into second chefs, chefs or even executive chefs.

For Wu Xiaozheng, all these people who have received professional training in vocational schools now will be positioned as assistant cooks after returning to Chef Wu. After receiving professional training on Chef Wu's special dishes, most of them will grow up to become second chefs. A few talented and hardworking people can quickly grow into chefs, and a few can even quickly grow into executive chefs.

In terms of chef training, Wu Xiaozheng has a complete set of mature experience.

"How many people can complete the training by the end of this month?"

Silently replied: "About half."

Wu Xiaozheng continued to ask: "How many people are recruited in the society who have a chef background?"

"There are more than 30, and all of them are thrown to vocational schools for basic skills assessment."

"Enough is enough. Those who can successfully complete the basic skills training, and those who have successfully passed the assessment among social chefs, will be sent back to Xiangshui early next month to start receiving assessment and training on professional dishes, which is enough to support two restaurants."

"Also, the waiters, foremen, helpers, etc. of the No. [-] branch in the provincial capital were sent to Xiangshui for training and internship in late June after they signed up in the local area in advance."

"As for the opening time of the first branch in the provincial capital, it will be tentatively scheduled for mid-to-late July, depending on the progress of the personnel."

Wu Xiaozheng made the final decision.

The countdown to the opening of the two restaurants of Chef Wu's restaurant will soon begin.
