"Ancient struggle!"
"Ancient struggle!"
As soon as Gu Zheng left the venue, the people waiting outside immediately cheered. Some even broke through the security guards, ran over to hug Gu Zheng, and threw him into the air.
When they came over, Gu Zheng was taken aback. Fortunately, he knew that these people had no malicious intentions and did not instinctively fight back, otherwise these people might all fly out.
Now the strength of the ancient struggle is very large.
Gu Zheng took the first place, and finally boiled a lot of soup for them. Although it was only a small amount for each person, they were very moved by Gu Zheng's intentions.
After this incident, even those who just came to join in the fun have become die-hard fans of Gu Zheng.
When outside the venue, some people turned over the articles written by Gu Zheng before, and everyone forwarded and circulated them. Many people finally saw Gu Zheng's tricks on food, but this temperament made them like it even more, which shows that Gu Zheng is a pursuit. A perfect person, a person who pursues perfection, naturally has high requirements.
After tossing outside for more than an hour, Gu Zheng was finally released by these crazy people, and finally dispersed and went home.
After a whole day of tossing, Gu Zheng also showed exhaustion. He went back to take an early rest. When he woke up the next day, he found that Mu Mu was not there. Wang Dong was making breakfast. Wang Dong knew that Gu Zheng was very tired yesterday, so he didn’t call him when he got up. .
"Wang Dong, what are your plans for the future?"
When eating breakfast, Gu Zheng asked Wang Dong, the breakfast is very ordinary, the ingredients are porridge and steamed buns, and the ingredients are also common ingredients that can be bought in the market. Wang Dong's cooking tastes good, but it is only good.
Gu Zheng is not that picky. If he doesn't do it himself, others do it. As long as it can fill his stomach, he will never have any opinions.
"Yesterday, our head chef called me and said that he would give me a salary increase when I go back. Several restaurant owners have come to see me, hoping that I can go there. The salary is not low. I don't know how to choose. Brother Gu, why don’t you choose one for me!”
The impact of this Hangzhou food competition was not small. Although Wang Dong failed to enter the final, he also rushed out of more than 5,000 people, and he was 32nd in the last preliminary competition, only two short of entering the final.
This result is better than many famous chefs recommended.
Some smart people started to do it very early. The impact of this competition is so great, and Wang Dong is so famous. The place where he works in Sucheng is also known. The head chef called him personally, hoping to keep him and let him go back.
Wang Dong himself has been hesitating in his heart. In terms of salary, the place he worked in the past can only be opened at the middle-to-lower level, but it is much better than before, almost doubled.
The highest one was a three-star hotel that gave him a basic salary of 10,000 yuan, and only asked him to cook fried rice with eggs, nothing else.
A basic salary of 10,000 is not a lot in the chef industry, but considering Wang Dong's age, there are very few chefs at his age who can earn such a salary, and it is only a basic salary with a commission, so this salary is not bad.
"Don't go to a small place, and you don't need to go back to the original place. Your cooking skills still have a lot of room for development. I suggest you find a place to study, learn a lot, improve a lot, and then come out to work!"
Gu Zheng thought for a while, and then suggested to Wang Dong that the hotel in Sucheng where Wang Dong used to work was a four-star hotel, not bad, but not good either. In addition, Wang Dong was only an apprentice before, and his status suddenly changed. , Going back may not be a good thing.
As for the invitation with the highest salary, it was just an ordinary restaurant. Wang Dong's culinary skills are just taking shape. At this stage, he is not suitable to be independent, but should learn more.
This time is actually very critical for Wang Dong, being able to study first will be of great help to him in the future.
"Brother Gu, I want to study too, but I can't!"
Wang Dong lowered his head, Gu Zheng looked at him in surprise, then laughed, he knew why Wang Dong said that.
Wang Dong was an apprentice before, with a very low salary. He also had to take care of the family and buy a lot of expensive ingredients. He had no savings at all. This time he came to participate in the competition. Mumu, I'm afraid she will continue to live in the Internet cafe.
To put it simply, Wang Dong has no money and is too shy.
Shaking his head with a smile, Gu Zheng said softly: "I have two suggestions. First, I know a famous chef in Shanghai. He cooks very unique dishes. You can follow him to learn. I will pay for the tuition. I will pay for it for you, and I will give you the living expenses, and you will pay me back when you earn money after you finish your studies!"
Gu Zheng asked Wang Dong to study, not to go to some culinary school, which is useless to Wang Dong, and Wang Dong wants to go his own way, and the people there can't teach him anything.
He wants Wang Dong to learn from famous chefs, the kind of famous chefs who are truly capable and have their own characteristics, who can integrate the strengths of others to learn and develop their own advantages, so that Wang Dong can find his own path.
"Secondly, my father is in France, and he is also good at cooking. If you are not too far away, I can introduce him to you. You can learn from him without any tuition fees, and you can make some money there! "
Gu Zheng knows a limited number of famous chefs. The one he mentioned first is in Shanghai. In fact, he is also a good friend of his father. He is his elder. He has been very kind to him since he was a child. It’s still very traditional, to learn is equivalent to apprenticeship, real famous chefs are very selective in choosing apprentices, people who are not recognized by them don’t teach at all, and there are many people who want to secretly learn some famous chef’s culinary skills.
As for the second one, there is no problem. Gu Zheng knew that his father had always wanted to find a successor, and he had always wanted to learn from him, but Gu Zheng was too lazy to agree, so he chose to become a food critic. Now there is a good seedling who is very talented, the fat and water will not flow into the fields of outsiders, and he can just let himself get rid of it.
"Brother Gu, I want to go to Shanghai. I don't need the living expenses. I will find a way by myself. I will definitely pay you back the tuition fee!"
Wang Dong thought for a while, and then said something, but Gu Zheng was a little surprised. Going to his father didn't require any expenses, and he could make money during his apprenticeship. Because he was abroad, he would definitely earn more than domestically. He didn't expect that Wang Dong did not choose his father, but chose Shencheng.
"Why?" Gu Zheng couldn't help asking.
"Because I'm closer to you, I can still visit you when I have time!"
Wang Dong said something naturally, but Gu Zheng stared straight. He didn't expect that Wang Dong chose to go to Shencheng for this reason, just to be with them.
"Silly boy, let me tell you about your situation and see what the two of them have to say. Whatever is beneficial to you, do it!"
Gu Zheng shook his head dumbfounded, and at the same time was moved in his heart. When Wang Dong chose, the first thing he thought of was himself, which was beyond his expectation.
