Chapter 76 Attending the meeting
The outdoor stage was set up overnight, and the advertising paper was printed on an expedited basis by the manufacturer and has just been delivered.
A man in his fifties at the scene brought a ladder over and was going to post the advertising paper. Yue Ning saw that his waist seemed to be a little unwell, so he took the advertising paper from him and climbed up the ladder to post the advertising paper.
"Yue Ning, do you know how much you are worth?" the person below asked.
"What's my worth?" Yue Ning asked while putting the sticker on. "Is it right?"
"No! Just right."
"Stars are paid by the hour when they appear. You are worth as much as the popular stars. You came yesterday and again early this morning, watching this and that, and now you are climbing up and down again."
Yue Ning climbed down the ladder: "The right person does the right thing. When I was in the northwest, I had to turn over the thatch on my roof and the roof of the sheepfold. I was used to climbing up and down."
The uncle came over to thank him, and Yue Ning said, "You're welcome."
She then told the joker, "You are such a bad person. You told me that. I feel like I missed out on a million dollars."
"I guess I got a million for nothing." Qiu Chunming came over to her. "With you certifying my foie gras on TV, my business will probably be booming."
"Then you must control the quality. Don't let this batch of goods be all good, but the next batch of goods are of poor quality, otherwise my reputation will be ruined." Yue Ning said to him, "I can bring you the first wave of customers, but I can't support your long-term business. Long-term business still depends on word of mouth."
"I know. I will definitely cherish this opportunity." Qiu Chunming smiled from ear to ear. "My dad said yesterday that I don't know what kind of good luck I have. I will provide you with free foie gras for a year."
Yue Ning knew that they thought Baohualou was a Cantonese restaurant, and even if they used goose liver, they wouldn't use much. She smiled and said, "How can you say that? What if I'm selling goose liver at a low price?"
"With your narrow mind, how is it possible?" Qiu Chunming said.
"Business is business. If you give me a special price, at least I can get a price from you that others can't get. That's enough! What's more important is to guarantee the quality in the long term."
Qiu Chunming nodded: "Isn't this a sentence? I'll give it to you at cost price."
"It's a deal!" As long as the other party doesn't lose money, Yue Ning still wants to take advantage of it.
When Yue Ning saw Cui Huiyi coming over, she ran over and said, "Sister Huiyi."
Cui Huiyi twisted her face and said, "You have no conscience. You came here for two days in a row and you don't even give Li De any time?"
Yue Ning begged for mercy: "Sister, I'll be here from nine to eleven. When I'm done here, I'll go to your place and fry a few packets of fried noodles, okay?"
"You have some conscience."
Yue Ning hooked Cui Huiyi's arm and asked softly, "Is it a big deal?"
Cui Huiyi pulled her to a corner and told her the general situation. Cui Huiyi said: "If he is willing to give up Lide, then we can save trouble. If he is not willing, then it depends on their own ability."
"Awesome." The two sisters hit their father by grabbing his weak spot. They are both ruthless.
Cui Huiyi was going to Lide's booth, and Yue Ning also returned to the booth outside the museum.
The two restaurants were on the same stage, one side was serving pork liver cooked in Baohualou's traditional sauce, while Qiu Chunming also invited a Western chef to come over.
Audiences lined up on both sides to taste different kinds of foie gras. Yue Ning was eloquent and witty, and Qiu Chunming, who took the opportunity to stand on a stool to take advantage of Yue Ning's traffic, was no less impressive. The two companies praised each other's business and promoted each other's products. The import and export company and Qiu's Trading Company did not have enough business cards to hand out.
Yue Ning's arrival also attracted a large number of ordinary audiences, especially those housewives. In addition to seeing their little cuties, why not visit the food exhibition since they are already here?
For a while, people gathered at the food exhibition. After Yue Ning finished his work, he ran to support Li De. Although there was no open flame and the fried noodles did not have a strong wok aroma, the caramel aroma of the dripping oil made up for it a bit and added a touch of homely flavor.
In Hong Kong film and television dramas, there is a classic line: "Are you hungry? I'll cook a bowl of noodles for you!" A bowl of noodles contains the care between family members, which is the most soothing.
"Ms. Cui!" A middle-aged man in a suit came over.
Cui Huiyi walked over to greet him: "Boss Wang is also coming to the exhibition?"
"Yes! I saw you were here too, so I came over to say hello." Boss Wang saw Yue Ning and said, "Miss Yue is here too, I wonder if Miss Cui could introduce her to me."
"Of course." Cui Huiyi agreed happily.
She called Yue Ning over and introduced him to him: "This is Mr. Wang from Xinyihang."
"We use Xinyi soy sauce to make soy sauce chicken." Yue Ning stretched out his hand to shake hands with Boss Wang.
This was a pleasant surprise to Boss Wang. He smiled and said, "No wonder. I went to Baohualou for dinner a few days ago. Not only the soy sauce chicken but also the fried rice noodles tasted like our products."
“In order to keep in sync with the taste of Baohualou, we also use Xinyi soy sauce in our soy sauce chicken noodles,” Cui Huiyi added.
Boss Wang and Cui Huiyi said: "Lide's business is booming, and we also hope to have more business with Lide."
"Of course, I am very grateful to Boss Wang for helping me solve my urgent problem."
"Of course. We should be concerned about our customers. Isn't that what we manufacturers should do?" Boss Wang looked at Yue Ning. "Wait until Miss Cui and Miss Yue are free to come to our factory and take a look at our factory's technology and management?"
Cui Jiachang was also at the exhibition today. Seeing his daughter chatting and laughing with her old rival, and even introducing Yue Ning to the other party, he clenched his fists so hard that his palms could bleed.
Regardless of whether Lide really wants to switch seasoning suppliers or is just pretending, this means that Lide has no confidence in Cuiji, which is worse for Cuiji. Moreover, if Yue Ning cooperates with Xinyi, the consequences can be imagined, and Cuiji will probably become more and more difficult.
His daughter was pressing him step by step, and he had very few cards to play. Moreover, even if he tried his best to keep Cui Ji and pass it on to Cui Huishu, his son would not be able to keep the family business.
Cui Jiachang didn't want to argue with his daughter face to face, because that would only give the TV and newspapers more news about the fight between rich fathers and daughters. He turned around silently. The exhibition hall was crowded with people, but he felt unusually lonely. At his age, he was tired.
Cui Huiyi saw her father's back. Her sister stayed at her house last night, and the two sisters slept in the same bed like they did when they were children. When talking about their childhood, her sister couldn't help but talk about their childhood and how much their father loved them at that time.
She rested her head on her hands and said, "That was just a show for grandpa. After grandpa passed away, he had many women outside. I saw him in bed with other women with my own eyes. It was really disgusting, so disgusting."
They pity her father, who will pity her mother? Moreover, when her father has to choose between his own interests and his daughter, he will definitely give up his daughter. How can he have any place for them in his heart?
Cui Huiyi smiled and stopped thinking about these useless things. She raised her wrist to check the time: "Ningning, Boss Wang, it's time for dinner, let's go have dinner together."
"No, I want to go back. The Catering and Accommodation Industry Association has a meeting at two o'clock in the afternoon, and I want to go and see it." Yue Ning said.
This is an industry gathering held twice a year, once in the middle of the year and once at the end of the year. Baohualou receives the invitation every year, but after Yue Baohua receives it, he just throws it away without even opening it.
He thought he was just a restaurant owner. The current scale of Baohua Restaurant was already large enough. Any bigger would be beyond his ability. This kind of industry conference with dinner and socializing was the most boring. It was better to cook two dishes in the kitchen.
This time, after receiving the invitation letter, he threw it away as usual. Yesterday afternoon, he received a call from the vice president of the industry association, who sincerely invited him and Yue Ning to attend the meeting.
He didn't want to go. When Yue Ning came back and heard about it, he immediately said, "Of course you have to go. Chatting is the best way to understand the current development trends of the industry in Hong Kong City and adjust the development direction according to market conditions."
This was not something Yue Baohua could figure out. His granddaughter wanted to open three lines of business, high, medium and low, and they were all progressing steadily. When he and Ning Ning went to Hong'an to discuss Huihuang's entrusted management, Ning Ning had already made up her mind. How to manage? How to distribute profits? They talked it out clearly.
He did whatever the child told him to do. Yue Baohua called the vice president back and promised to attend on time.
Yue Ning said goodbye to Cui Huiyi, went to say hello to Boss Qiu and the import and export company, called a taxi back to Baohua Building, and ate a few bites of food. She went upstairs to take a shower, changed into a silk shirt and silk trousers, and put on a Chinese jacket with a Baoxiang pattern. She fixed her short hair with hairspray, put on bright red lipstick, carried a leather bag in her hand, and stepped on a pair of thick-heeled high heels. Stilettos are beautiful, but Yue Ning is really not used to wearing them.
She came downstairs and Sister Hua exclaimed exaggeratedly and looked at her.
Yue Ning is usually casual. When she went to the exhibition these two days, she also wore a T-shirt and jeans, which is the dress for her age. With her lively personality, even though she does things in an orderly manner, she is already a well-known figure in Baohua Building. In everyone's mind, she is still a child. It would be surprising if a child suddenly put on high heels and put on makeup.
Yue Ning went over and hugged the plump Sister Hua, pouting her big red lips: "Aunt Hua, give me a kiss."
Sister Hua laughed so hard that her body trembled: "Okay, okay, your grandfather is waiting for you."
Yue Ning let her go: "Really not kissing?"
Sister Hua turned her face to her, and Yue Ning's red lips left a lip print on her face.
Yue Baohua shook his head as he watched. Yue Ning ran to his grandfather and said, "Grandpa, do you want a kiss?"
The granddaughter was dressed formally and was playing tricks on him, so Yue Baohua knocked her on the head and said, "Alright, alright, get in the car."
Yue Baohua was driving while Yue Ning put on her lipstick.
When we arrived at the hotel, in addition to a sign directing us to the industry conference, there was also a welcome sign in Chinese, English and Japanese at the entrance.
Mii Nakamura will arrive in Hong Kong tonight and have a concert tomorrow night.
The grandparents followed the hotel signs to the second-floor conference room. The meeting was quite large and quite a few people had already arrived.
The grandparents and grandchildren went to sign in first. Just as they put their pens down, the president of the industry association and Mr. Guo, the venue provider, came over together.
Yue Ning showed an exaggerated smile, walked over, and said to Boss Guo: "I heard that Boss Guo wanted to treat me to foie gras, so I couldn't wait to come here."
