When it came to delicious food, Wu Zhengchuan immediately became interested.
He is a chef who enjoys tasting other people's dishes while cooking for himself.
See how others do it, and see what you can learn from them.
This is why he has been ranked among the top chefs in the country for so many years.
Ignoring Xie Wei's dejected expression, the two walked together toward the stall next door.
Xie Wei could only stand there, checking and refunding each customer in line.
Being disqualified from the competition was bad enough, but to end up with this consequence is even worse.
Who would have thought?
He was such a swaggering and pretentious person at the opening ceremony this morning.
They were eliminated before the first day of the competition was even over, with absolutely no chance of recovery.
So what if you were the champion of the previous food festival? You're nothing in front of big shots like Wu Zhengchuan.
One sentence is all it takes to get rid of him anytime.
Back to Lu Rong's side.
Many people received refunds because of Xie Wei's case.
The price ranges from tens to thousands of yuan.
The first thing these people did after receiving the money was not to put it away, but to take it to Lu Rong's stall to buy spicy and sour chicken feet.
Because a large portion of these people had eaten Lu Rong's spicy and sour chicken feet.
Moreover, thanks to so many people's promotion, everyone is now saying that if you don't try Lu Rong's spicy and sour chicken feet at this food festival, you've wasted your trip.
One tells ten, ten tell a hundred.
Through word of mouth, Lu Rong's spicy and sour chicken feet seem to have become a must-visit spot at this food festival.
The queue is getting longer and longer.
How ironic.
Lu won the contest against Xie Wei without a doubt.
And it was an easy win.
Despite facing so many people, Lu Rong and his team remained highly efficient and were not defeated by the intense workload.
Lu Rong and the others had heard about what had happened on Xie Wei's side.
Xu Fei was the happiest person to learn about this.
"Haha, wasn't he quite arrogant this morning? I didn't expect him to pack his bags and leave so quickly."
He had long disliked Xie Wei's self-righteousness, and he never expected to hear this good news so soon.
The others also wore expressions of triumph, and they couldn't be happier.
Now that Xie Wei has been disqualified, Lu Rong and his team have lost a formidable competitor.
The chances of winning are greater.
Originally, Xie Wei and his group were evenly matched, each taking a share of the two major customer groups.
Now that Xie Wei and the others have left, all the customers are coming over to him.
Especially those customers who received a refund.
They all took the money they received back and bought Lu Rong's spicy and sour chicken feet.
Because it's a refund, they seem to spend it without a second thought, each one more generous than the last, often requesting five or six items at a time.
This led to their sales exceeding 1 million without them even realizing it.
At this time, it was not yet six o'clock in the afternoon.
The food festival competition doesn't end until 10 p.m., so they have four more hours to continue selling.
Because it's hot during the day, and many people have to work during the day, there aren't many people coming yet.
Based on past experience, the peak time for the food festival is around 7 or 8 pm.
Based on this calculation, it would be more than enough to break Xie Wei's record of 1.3 million in single-day sales last year.
It seems I'll have to buy more chicken feet.
Otherwise, there simply wouldn't be enough to sell.
Just then, Lu Rong suddenly spotted two familiar figures.
It was Li Shangui and Wu Zhengchuan.
After what just happened, Lu Rong also learned Li Shangui's true identity.
He was surprised to learn that the two people actually knew each other.
As expected, big shots only know big shots.
After queuing for about 20 minutes, the two finally arrived at Lu Rong's stall.
They didn't get special treatment; they queued up to buy just like everyone else.
"Hey, classmate, we're back again." Li Shangui smiled at Lu Rong, his eyes full of admiration for him.
That look in his eyes was just like a teacher looking at their favorite student.
He had been very impressed with Lu Rong's spicy and sour chicken feet ever since he tasted them.
Lu Rong smiled back and said respectfully, "Old Li, Old Wu, are you also here to buy spicy and sour chicken feet?"
“Two portions, one for me and one for him.” Wu Zhengchuan nodded and gave Lu Rong a “Yes” sign.
The incident started when Li Shangui, upon seeing Wu Zhengchuan, kept telling him about the deliciousness of Lu Rong's spicy and sour chicken feet, and even said that they had the potential to surpass Wu Zhengchuan's.
This forced Wu Zhengchuan to take it seriously.
Wu Zhengchuan was a nationally renowned chef, and there were very few people in the entire country who could defeat him.
Hearing Li Shangui say this now, he couldn't help but get excited.
He also had a good impression of Lu Rong, but he did not expect Li Shangui to have such a high opinion of him.
This forced him to re-evaluate the young man.
You should know that Li Shangui is notoriously strict, especially when it comes to food.
It's truly remarkable that someone can get him to nod in approval and even offer praise and recommendations.
He wasn't even confident that he could perfectly replicate the dishes he made himself.
"Here are your spicy and sour chicken feet." Lu Rong handed a box of spicy and sour chicken feet to Li Shangui and Wu Zhengchuan respectively.
After taking the chicken feet, the two quickly moved aside to avoid affecting the queue of the people behind them.
Back in the back office, Wu Zhengchuan couldn't wait to start dismantling it.
He wanted to see what these spicy and sour chicken feet actually tasted like.
