Liu Zihao ate his lunch obediently, then held the cake in his hands, followed his mother into the living room, sat down, and prepared to start eating the cake.
At this moment, with the cake in front of him, the little boy had forgotten about the picnic and his father's lie.
In fact, most kindergarten children are probably similar to Liu Zihao on weekends.
Either I stay at home or I play around near my neighborhood.
Perhaps after this weekend, Feng Ruoruo, Yang Xiaoxi and Chen Yaofei will be envied by many other children when they talk about their weekend in kindergarten.
Liu Zihao was in his living room, ready to eat cake, when he suddenly saw the picture on TV and exclaimed, "Mom, look, it's Feng Ruoruo's house. Feng Ruoruo, Yang Xiaoxi, Chen Yaofei and the others are all on TV."
The mother, who was originally planning to change the channel, put down the remote control and started watching the TV program seriously after hearing her son's exclamation.
In fact, this time is exactly when "The Philippine Witness" is broadcast.
The content of this episode happened to be a program about the old street that was previously recorded in the old street.
While Liu Zihao and his mother were watching the show, many people across the city were also watching it.
Even Su Lanxin, who had just had a meeting with the Catering Association in the morning, happened to see this episode of the show.
Seeing the filming and interviews about the old street, Su Lanxin's expression changed slightly. It was obvious that she did not expect that the old street would suddenly attract so much attention, especially she did not expect that the local TV station would film such a program.
It is obvious that the broadcast of this episode completely disrupted some of Su Lanxin's previous plans.
Once this program is broadcast, it will naturally attract a lot of people's attention to the old street.
Especially in this episode, many unique shops on the old street were filmed, and some unique handicraft shops naturally attracted people's attention.
As more and more attention is paid to this, it will also have an impact on the reconstruction of the old street.
The original reconstruction proposal given by the relevant departments required that the old street should be restored to its original state and that existing things should be preserved as much as possible.
Su Lanxin has been in close contact with people from the Catering Association these days, hoping that the Catering Association can help her persuade the relevant departments to agree to her design of completely transforming the old street into a modern food street.
Today, Su Lanxin had basically won the approval of several members of the catering association.
In particular, the young and middle-aged members of the Catering Association, including Jiang Zhongjian, were very supportive of Su Lanxin's renovation plan.
They had already achieved such a good situation. Su Lanxin had even discussed with the people from the catering association and had everyone work together to talk to the relevant departments about this matter.
But now, the TV station has broadcast such a program, revealing the current situation of the old street without reservation.
This will obviously attract wider social attention.
Although Meng Shitong and her team had previously filmed videos of the old street and made a continuous video series, it has now attracted a lot of people to play and watch it online.
But that was just on the Internet, and in Su Lanxin's opinion it would not have a big impact locally.
Now that it’s being reported on TV, the effect will be completely different.
By broadcasting this, the TV station is expressing its attitude, hoping that the old street can be restored to its original state and retain its current appearance.
Such publicity by TV stations is bound to affect local people, especially many elderly people who are not very good at surfing the Internet.
Su Lanxin's face became worse and worse. Just at this moment, the secretary came in and seemed to want to report something.
Seeing the secretary, she immediately asked, "What's the matter with the report on Lao Cai by the Philippine Witness program? Why didn't we receive any information in advance?"
The secretary glanced at the TV and was also stunned when he saw the program on it.
Then the secretary thought of the problem and said in a panic, "I'm sorry, President Su. This is my negligence. I didn't notice it. I, I didn't communicate with the TV station in time."
Su Lanxin's face was not good, and she said in a deep voice: "It's no use saying this now."
Watching the program, Su Lanxin saw interviews with each shop, and finally saw the TV station people enter Su Ji.
When Su Lanxin saw Feng Yifan take out the four kinds of lion heads, she suddenly understood everything.
When the secretary saw this, she even felt a chill in her heart, because she felt that such a thing was a very serious blow to Su Lanxin.
Originally, Su Lanxin had made two preparations. One was to let Chen Wei and Feng Yifan compete in cooking.
Another preparation she made was that she persuaded the catering association to contact the old street reconstruction department and get the department to agree to completely transform the old street into a modern food street.
In this way, Su Lanxin felt that she could force Su Ji to leave, or even if Su Ji did not leave, his voice would be affected.
But now that the TV station had reported this, all of Su Lanxin’s calculations had gone to waste.
Even if the catering association is still on her side, I am afraid it will not be able to convince the relevant departments, because with so few people in the catering association, how can they possibly speak louder than the general public
What's more, after watching this report on TV, I'm afraid many people in the catering association will "turn against" it.
After being distorted for a while, Su Lanxin's expression gradually calmed down.
What surprised the secretary was that she actually saw her own boss Su, who always had a hot temper. She sighed helplessly: "Brother, I underestimated your son-in-law's ability after all."
Su Lanxin watched the TV program and understood everything clearly.
Especially when the four-flavor lion head dish was presented, she realized that the TV station's filming might have something to do with her eldest brother's son-in-law.
Su Lanxin suddenly realized that everything she had planned out would allow her to safely take back the old plaque from her parents.
But because of the appearance of Feng Yifan, all her plans seemed to be disrupted.
Now Su Lanxin is really feeling more and more regretful. Why didn't she notice it earlier and did more investigation on her eldest brother's son-in-law earlier
Feng Yifan is extraordinary. It can even be said that he has surpassed Chen Wei in the cooking and innovation of traditional dishes.
And his parents are actually vegetable tycoons.
All this disrupted Su Lanxin's plan. It can be said that Su Lanxin's originally confident victory turned out to be a complete failure in the end.
After hearing what Mr. Su said, the secretary saw that Mr. Su fell into silence, with a look of disappointment written all over his face.
After a long silence, the secretary couldn't help but ask, "Boss Su, do we still need to continue to contact the catering association?"
Su Lanxin was awakened by the secretary's words, and came to her senses and said, "Yes, continue to keep in touch, and maintain relations with the catering association. At the same time, tell Su Liancheng, Tan Xueli, and Chen Wei that they must make Fujinglou famous for me next."
The secretary was stunned when he heard this, but then he vaguely understood what President Su meant.
"Boss Su, do you want to use Fujinglou to suppress Suji?"
Hearing the secretary's question, Su Lanxin said calmly: "This is the worst trick, but now we have no choice but to hope that Chen Wei can perform at a high enough level."
Without waiting for the secretary to speak, Su Lanxin continued, "Also, draw up a plan for a cooking competition and show it to me later."
The secretary was a little surprised and asked, "Plan for the cooking competition?"
Su Lanxin nodded: "Yes, let the catering association come to host the cooking competition, we will pay for it, and the focus of the competition is to promote Fujinglou, we can also bring Huchunju on the other side of the lake to join."
The secretary was surprised. She had never expected that President Su would have such a big plan all of a sudden.
But Su Lanxin did not give up: "In addition, chefs from anywhere can participate freely. Set the prize money higher to attract more attention."
After hearing this, the secretary understood that President Su was planning to use the cooking competition to restore the reputation of Fujinglou, or to make Fujinglou's reputation even more famous.
This is not what the secretary thought. President Su wants to use Fujing Building to suppress Su Ji.
Because Su Lanxin seems to have bigger ambitions, she wants to directly build Fujinglou into a domestic brand.
After thinking about it carefully, the secretary couldn't help but admire his boss.
Perhaps the plan to use the reconstruction of the old street to put pressure on Su Ji was destroyed, which did catch Su Lanxin off guard, but she did not give up. She immediately thought: if she couldn't get the Su Ji old plaque, she would create a new brand.
Obviously, Fujing Building would be a very suitable choice.
Although the chain restaurants of Su Lanxin's catering group are somewhat famous abroad, they are not well-known enough in China.
Especially without the core of domestic cultural heritage, it is not easy to become a brand in China.
But it is different if we use Fujinglou. Fujinglou itself is a very famous restaurant in Huaicheng, and it is also a certified restaurant for Huaiyang cuisine in Huaicheng.
Although Fujinglou has only been around for a short time, and its managers and kitchen staff have changed several times, its heritage has indeed declined a lot.
But Su Lanxin felt that she could use her and Chen Wei's reputation and borrow the name of Su Ji.
In this way, the company can package the announcement into a gimmick that the daughter and son-in-law of a century-old inherited shop who have been away for many years have returned to their hometown to revive the local cuisine, thereby raising the grade of Fujinglou in one fell swoop.
As long as the cooking competition is held, it will attract chefs from all over the world to participate.
So this is an invisible publicity, and because it is promoting local cuisine, Huaicheng will definitely support it.
In this way, the Fujinglou brand can be built into a first-class and well-known restaurant in the country.
In this way, for Su Lanxin, it no longer matters whether the old plaque of Su Ji is taken back or not.
The only thing she needed now was to let Feng Yifan participate in the competition. And she had to let Feng Yifan and Chen Wei have a final showdown, so that she could truly achieve her entire publicity strategy.
The secretary didn't dare to delay. The boss had already given the order, so she naturally hurried to draft the plan.
Su Lanxin watched the report on TV and saw Feng Yifan, who was very confident and calm in front of the camera. She said calmly, "Feng Yifan, I hope to see your true ability."
The TV station's coverage of the old street quickly resonated among the people of Huaicheng, just as Su Lanxin had expected.
Especially some elderly people, after watching this episode, they were all immersed in memories.
Many elderly people have visited the old streets before, and the old streets are full of memories for them. Maybe they had a date in the old streets, or they bought something in the old streets.
In short, after the program was broadcast, many local people began to yearn for the old street and decided to go and take a look at it.
After all, the old street is facing reconstruction, and everyone still hopes to take a look before the reconstruction.
Except for some elderly people, young people have a deeper understanding.
Previously, young people learned some things about the old street through Meng Shitong and others’ videos and from the Internet, but what they learned was not comprehensive.
As soon as the TV program was broadcast, many young people suddenly had a deeper understanding of the old street. Suddenly they found that there was such a street market with ancient things preserved in the city where they lived.
In fact, in recent years, many young people on the Internet like this kind of retro things, especially many traditional things, which attract a large number of young people to pursue them.
Originally, many young people in Huaicheng felt that there was nothing traditionally worth promoting in their city.
Now, after watching the TV program and seeing the existence of the old street, the local young people feel like they have discovered a new world.
Maybe some young people have been there before, but they didn’t study it seriously, nor did they research the age of those shops or the special things in the shops.
Today, TV programs present the true characteristics of the old street to everyone.
It immediately attracted all the young people's attention to the old street.
Soon after the program was broadcast, many young people made appointments to go for a stroll in the old street together.
This time, I went there not only to eat at Su Ji, but also to visit those handicraft shops selling bamboo weaving, wood products, lacquerware, embroidery, etc.
Especially some young people who are fond of Hanfu, they suddenly discovered a place where they can better display Hanfu.
Perhaps even the TV station had not thought that the broadcast of their program would completely give new life to the old street.
At the same time, Meng Shitong and others came to Fujing Building with the machine.
After entering the door, He Yaqian couldn't help but sigh: "Oh, Fujing Building is indeed Fujing Building. The scenery overlooking the lake alone is really worth a lot of money."
Meng Shitong also nodded and said, "Yes, Fujing Building was originally built by the lake. The original owner was really courageous."
Photographer A Fei added: "The key is to have money."
He Yaqian urged everyone, "Okay, let's go in quickly and find a good seat, and then try to see if the food at Fujinglou is as good as the scenery here. The key is to compare it with Chef Feng's cooking skills."
Meng Shitong smiled and said, "Then let's go. Since we are here, we should just follow the rules and eat as much as we can."
