Chapter 228 Monkey, will this work?

September 8, 2012, Saturday, cloudy.

As requested by Xu's Fast Food Restaurant, Wu Yongfeng arrived at the restaurant at 5:30 a.m. with a set of photography equipment, just like yesterday, to prepare to start filming.

But he felt something was off today. When he came at this time yesterday, the store was bustling with activity. But today, he found most people chatting by their cars, while a few were dozing in their vehicles.

Not quite sure what they were doing, Wu Yongfeng wasn't particularly curious to find out. After locking his electric scooter, he took the camera equipment out of his bag, bent down to adjust the camera parameters, and prepared for the next shoot.

After three minutes and twenty-seven seconds, the parameters were adjusted. Just as I raised the camera to check if it was suitable, I looked up and saw that the uncles and aunts who had been chatting by the car were all staring straight at me.

"Good morning, everyone..." Wu Yongfeng quickly put on a polite smile and greeted everyone.

"Good morning, Photographer Wu! Come over here, look at these cabbages, they're all huge and perfect for photos!" Aunt Hong waved enthusiastically to Wu Yongfeng, gesturing for him to come over and take pictures.

Before he could respond, Bald Chen, who was standing next to Wu Yongfeng, grabbed him and greeted him with even more enthusiasm than Aunt Hong: "Come, come, little master, come here. Look at all this meat today. Every piece is carefully selected high-quality meat! Come, come, look at this pinkish texture. Isn't it worth a close-up shot?"

"Young man, over here, over here! Look at these dried mushrooms of mine, they smell amazing! All the braised mushrooms in the braised food shops come from me, and the customers who have tried them all say they're delicious!"

"I have spices here, young master, come over here..."

"...Practical tips, practical tips..."

In that instant, Wu Yongfeng felt as if he had entered a bustling market, where every stall owner warmly invited him, awaiting his patronage...

But what's going on? What happened?

Yesterday they ignored me and complained that I was in their way while they were moving goods; how come today they are all so enthusiastic?

Aunt Hong seemed to sense Wu Yongfeng's confusion. Holding a cabbage bigger than her face, she came over and explained, "We saw the video you filmed yesterday. It was well-made, but there were too many wide shots and not enough close-ups, so it didn't fully showcase the advantages of our ingredients. Today, film more close-ups, like, like, like that documentary 'Visiting Fast Food Restaurants,' to make our ingredients look appetizing!"

"Ah... Hey hey... Okay!" Wu Yongfeng gave in to Aunt Hong's enthusiasm, recalled the beautiful filming scenes in "Visiting Fast Food Restaurants" where ingredients were paramount, and started filming with his camera.

I photographed every single thing: cabbage, lettuce, pork, duck feet, chicken feet, mushrooms, kelp...

From a single part to a whole ingredient, then from one ingredient to countless ingredients, from countless ingredients to a whole basket of ingredients, and finally from one vehicle to countless vehicles in the distance, the camera finally focuses on the Xu's Fast Food restaurant's illuminated signboard, with the four large, flamboyant characters "Xu's Fast Food" appearing in the center of the frame.

Sun Xuezhen was a regular customer of Xu's Fast Food Restaurant. Although she was quite satisfied with the boxed meals and had never had any problems eating them, she occasionally worried that such cheap meals might be due to issues with the ingredients...

However, she didn't experience any problems with the food, and since two food safety inspections also failed to detect any issues, she felt a little more at ease.

Unexpectedly, just two days ago, Xu's Fast Food Restaurant was suddenly ordered to close by the food safety authorities, which terrified her. Even after news reports confirmed that Xu's Fast Food Restaurant was fine, she still made the decision to cook for herself from now on!

Whether it saves money or not is another matter, but at least it's healthy, and you don't have to worry about food safety issues.

Although buying, washing, chopping, cooking, and washing pots and pans, and finally cleaning the kitchen, is a little annoying, it's nothing compared to your health!

Just as she made up her mind and cooked for a day, she suddenly saw information about Xu's Fast Food Restaurant in a group chat.

To prove its innocence, Xu's Fast Food Restaurant proactively filmed the entire process from ingredients to delicious dishes! Some of the ingredients in the video were of even higher quality than those she bought herself.

Despite this, Sun Xuezhen still had reservations about Xu's Fast Food Restaurant.

Maybe it's just a publicity stunt! If it's just a one-day shoot, the cost wouldn't be that high! Maybe we should wait and see?

So, as soon as lunch break started at noon today, she quickly opened the Xu's Fast Food restaurant's ordering webpage, clicked to jump to the [Brand Story] page, and sure enough, there was another video. The title of this video was—Xu's Fast Food Restaurant, September 8, 2012!

They really do shoot one video every day!

With a click of the mouse, the video zoomed in and filled the entire screen, displaying the four large characters "Xu's Fast Food Restaurant," and the video playback began.

After watching only the beginning, Sun Xuezhen sensed something was wrong. The more she watched this video, the more it seemed like a food documentary.

The light green cabbage, as delicate as jade, transforms into a refreshing and delicious stir-fried cabbage with glass noodles; the deep emerald-like lettuce is infused with a spiced braising sauce; and the snow-white duck feet don a new amber coat as they simmer in the bubbling broth...
