The most basic requirement for a large restaurant is to have a chef with three stars or above. In the era of gourmet food, chef qualifications are determined by star rating. One to three stars represent that the chef has fully mastered the cooking skills. Only those who have fully mastered the cooking skills are qualified to be a chef in a large restaurant.
However, the head chefs of five-star hotels are generally chefs with five stars or above.
After all, the quality of a restaurant still depends on high-star chefs to improve it, but if you don’t consider the hotel’s profits, a five-star hotel can operate normally as long as it has a three-star chef.
Although Shi Dingping is the vice president of the Food Association, he is also a chef and has a three-star chef license. His employment in Honglou can just ensure the normal operation of Honglou.
Of course, Shi Dingping was just a figurehead in the restaurant.
In fact, Ye Cui and Old Han could both see that Shi Dingping was very happy to be listed as a chef. When he introduced himself, he specifically mentioned that he was a three-star chef. He probably had thought of this move a long time ago. He helped Fan Hong to target Hong Lou, but ended up bringing out Old Han. This was also to please Old Han.
Ye Cui and Han Lao understood this and followed him.
But Fan Hong couldn't remain calm at all.
He spent a lot of energy and gave many precious gifts before he finally persuaded Shi Dingping to help. However, the result was that chefs like Lu Bing who obeyed his orders resigned from the hotel, but Shi Dingping became a nominal chef of the hotel. Does this count as making wedding clothes for others
"Brother Pan, please go and complete the employment procedures for President Shi." Ye Cui said to Pan Qingguo with a smile again.
"Oh, okay." Pan Qingguo agreed quickly. At this moment, he admired Ye Chu indescribably. Having worked in the hotel for such a long time, he had never experienced such twists and turns as today. Looking at Fan Hong's completely dumbfounded face, he felt indescribably relieved.
Shi Dingping followed Pan Qingguo to the hotel's office to go through the entry procedures.
"Mr. Han, please go to the private room upstairs. I will make you a few side dishes." Ye Chui said to Mr. Han with a smile.
Old Han waved his hand and said, "I'll just sit in this hall for a while. That brat Lin Zhengdao will come over later. I want to watch a good show."
The good show he was talking about was naturally the Hongmen Banquet that he had mentioned on the phone before.
A trace of worry flashed across Ye Chui's eyes. He wondered what trap Zhang Hantao and the others were planning to set up to target Lin Zhengdao.
Lin Wei had been standing among the waiters since the beginning. She was a little worried before, but after Han Lao showed up, she was not shocked, because she had known about the relationship between Ye Chui and Han Lao for a long time. It was just that Han Lao's words "I want to marry my granddaughter to you" made her very worried. To Ye Chui, Han Lao was just joking, but Lin Wei knew that Han Lao really intended to do this...
At this moment, she heard Mr. Han mention that there was a good show to watch. She was worried about her father, so she couldn't help but walked over: "Grandpa Han, do you know what will happen to my father today?"
Old Han glanced at Lin Wei and smiled: "Don't worry, Lin Zhengdao is not an ordinary person. He has fought with me for more than ten years. How can he be defeated so easily?"
After hearing what Mr. Han said, Lin Wei finally smiled.
It’s just that her dad was called a little devil by Mr. Han... which made Lin Wei feel a little depressed. If her dad is a little devil, then is she a little little devil
Ye Chui helped Mr. Han walk towards the tables and chairs on one side of the hall. At this time, Mr. Han saw Fan Hong standing there in a daze.
Fan Hong's whole body was stiff, and he didn't know what to do next.
Mr. Han glanced at him and asked, "What do you do?"
Fan Hong forced a smile on his face: "Mr. Han, my last name is Fan, and my name is Fan Hong. You should have heard of my name."
"Fan Hong?" Old Han showed a thoughtful look, and Fan Hong smiled. He had been trying to get in touch with Old Han during this period of time, and had found many connections. He believed that Old Han must have heard of his name. Although he suffered a great loss today, if he could get to know Old Han, it would be a gain and a loss. At worst, he could make amends to Ye Chui later. A young man should be easy to win over...
Just when he thought about it, Mr. Han shook his head and said, "What Fan Hong? I've never heard of this name."
Fan Hong: “…”
Old Han used his cane to nudge Fan Hong: "Move aside, move aside! Can't you see that an old man like me is about to pass by?"
Fan Hong hurriedly made way.
Ye Chui couldn't help laughing and helped Mr. Han sit down at a dining table in the hall.
Fan Hong stood there for a while, but finally felt that he was asking for trouble. He gritted his teeth and turned around to open the Honglou Hotel.
He was in a bad mood and very irritable at the moment...
But even if he was angry, he had no way to vent it.
…
At the railing at the entrance of the second-floor stairs, Zhang Hantao and the four important members of the Lin Enterprise Board of Directors were looking at the scene in the hall with some surprise.
They watched everything that happened in the hall just now.
Fan Hong was just a minor character to them, but they still found it very interesting that this minor character left the hotel in a trance after being hit by Ye Chui - of course, what Zhang Hantao felt was not fun, but anger.
"Interesting, this Ye Chui is young but very capable. Even an old stubborn man like Old Han is willing to help him." Wei Yi, the charming woman among the four board members, said with a smile, her eyes seemed to be a little rippling, "Just now Old Han seemed to say that he would marry his granddaughter to Ye Chui? This kid is really lucky. Not only does he have Wei Wei as his friend, but he also hooked up with Old Han's granddaughter. The young man has a bright future, and I am a little tempted."
Mr. Lu, the middle-aged man standing next to him, smiled and joked, "Wei Yi, you just said it yourself, you are almost old enough to be this kid's mother, how dare you fall in love with him?"
Wei Yi rolled her eyes at Mr. Lu and said, "Lu Ming, if you keep making fun of my age, I'll report you to my sister-in-law about what happened with that girl in the hotel when you were on a business trip to the United States last time."
Mr. Lu, also known as Lu Ming, looked slightly changed, and smiled awkwardly: "What nonsense are you talking about? That girl is just my friend..."
He himself felt that he lacked confidence when he said this.
"You two stop arguing." The oldest of the four directors said in a deep voice, "Think about how to deal with old man Han later. I don't know why he came here to join in the fun at this time."
Lin's Enterprise and Mr. Han's family business have never been harmonious. There is a lot of competition between them. They can be said to be mortal enemies. What they are going to do today is an internal struggle within Lin's Enterprise. It is hard to say what Mr. Han came here to interfere with.
"Could it be that Lao Lin asked him to come?" The only white man among the four said in stiff Chinese.
"Why did Lin Zhengdao ask Mr. Han to come over at this time?" Zhang Hantao was a little confused, his eyes flickering. He thought he knew Lin Zhengdao best. Although this man adhered to the doctrine of the mean in doing business and would not use any means to achieve his goals, sometimes he could play it very well even with an open conspiracy, making it hard for people to guard against.
"Don't worry about it." The old man among the four directors snorted and turned away. "Today's business is to get Lin Zhengdao to give an explanation. The future of the company is in our hands. Even if Mr. Han was brought in by Lin Zhengdao, it can't change anything."
The others nodded, ignored Mr. Han in the hall, and returned to the box.
In the lobby of Honglou Hotel, Mr. Han sat at the dining table and chatted with Ye Chui and Lin Wei with a smile.
Not long after, a car stopped outside the hotel, and Lin Zhengdao, Xiao Zhang, Xiao Liu, and Xiao Chen walked in.
Lin Wei hurried to Lin Zhengdao's side: "Dad, you're here."
"Yeah." Lin Zhengdao rubbed his daughter's head affectionately, then looked at Mr. Han who was sitting at the dining table and smiled, "Mr. Han, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."
"It doesn't matter. I just saw a good show. It's worth waiting a little longer." Old Han stood up with the help of his cane, pointed upstairs with his cane, and said with a smile, "Those little ghosts have already arrived. I guess they are now wondering why I suddenly appeared here."
The average age of the directors of Lin's Enterprise is over 40 years old, and the oldest one is already over 60 years old, but in the eyes of Mr. Han, they are still little kids.
Lin Zhengdao smiled and walked to Mr. Han's side: "Then let's go up together."
He glanced at Ye Chui again and patted him on the shoulder: "Boy, after today's matter is over, I have a big gift for you."
"A big gift?" Ye Chui was stunned.
Mr. Han suddenly became unhappy and stared at Lin Zheng and said, "What are you going to give this kid? Humph, no matter what you give, I will give it to him anyway. I will give him whatever you give me."
"Haha, you may not be able to give him what I want to give him." Lin Zhengdao looked smug, then ignored Old Han and went upstairs first.
Old Han followed him with an unconvinced look on his face: "What are you talking about? If you can come up with it, I can come up with it too!"
Xiao Zhang, Xiao Liu, and Xiao Chen were all shocked at the moment. They knew what the great gift Lin Zhengdao was talking about... but they didn't expect that when Old Han heard that Lin Zhengdao was going to give Ye Chui a great gift, he would react like this.
Although it was impossible for Mr. Han to give Ye Chui the same gift, his attitude represented a lot...
This young chef... really keeps surprising them.
Lin Wei approached Ye Chui curiously and said, "Ye Chui, what gift is Dad going to give you?"
"How should I know?" Ye Chui looked puzzled. "But, judging from the way Uncle looks, this should be a real gift... Weiwei, do you think Uncle wants to give you to me as a gift?"
Lin Wei blushed and glared at Ye Chui: "Hateful."
Having said that, he hurriedly followed.
Ye Chui smiled and followed.
The "Hongmen Banquet" set up by Zhang Hantao and four important board members has now officially begun. (~^~)
