Chapter 532 Double Upgrade and Double Happiness
In the morning.
The sun was shining.
Du Shaojie, Wang Yongli, Wu Chenggang and others set out from the bus stop and started a new round of inspections. The content of this inspection was to check the "double upgrade" effect of the hot pot restaurants.
There was no rigid task for this trip, just go wherever you go, and you won't go around all the hot pot restaurants.
Wu Chenggang now shares part of Luo Qin's work. Luo Qin's work is more administrative, while Wu Chenggang's work is more technical. The two just complement each other. After all, it's not good to not know any technology when facing a catering company.
So every time he goes to a place, Luo Qin will focus on checking the management and service level of the store, while Wu Chenggang will judge the quality of the dishes and the quality of the ingredients.
Du Shaojie sometimes conducts spot checks, but the basic work is handed over to the two of them.
"Boss, are you training a chef or a successor?"
Wang Yongli was the first person to follow Du Shaojie, and privately, the two spoke casually.
It was the first time he saw the boss caring so much about a person, not only taking him by his side but also training him in all aspects.
" He
is not a successor. How far he can go depends on his own efforts. Let's put it this way. If he can become an excellent chef, I will let him be the head chef, so everything is possible." Du Shaojie smiled and didn't say much.
He really admired Wu Chenggang, but he just gave him a chance. No one can make a choice for him about what kind of person he wants to be and what kind of person he will become.
The group visited hot pot restaurants in four or five provinces and had an intuitive understanding of the effect of this upgrade.
"Boss, I think the service level of each store has been greatly improved, and the management is basically in place, so I can give 90 points for this upgrade."
Luo Qin has a positive attitude towards the "double upgrade" of the hot pot restaurant.
She also exchanged opinions with Wu Chenggang below. Wu Chenggang himself praised the quality of the upgraded hot pot. Coupled with the hot scenes in each store, this judgment is not difficult to make.
Du Shaojie nodded and approved of the two's statements.
"Then let's go back. There's no point in going on."
This time it was not a routine inspection, but just to see the effect of the hot pot restaurant's "double upgrade".
Now that the effect is seen, it is even a little beyond expectations, and he has completely put aside his worries.
Over the years, Du Shaojie has always been very cautious. Every adjustment must be piloted or the effect summary of the early promotion.
If the customer approves, then he will stick to it. If the customer does not approve, then he will continue to make changes.
But no matter how he changes, Du Shaojie's requirements for the quality of dishes and ingredients have never been reduced. In addition, the company's various brands are all low-end routes, so [Bailian Catering] has a good reputation among ordinary consumers.
This is the result of years of persistence, and it has not been easy along the way.
Of course, he also has a high-end brand, which is [Baiyun Shenchu] Private Restaurant. Private restaurants have very few stores across the country, and are only popular in specific circles, so they are not included in the discussion.
In the evening.
Du Shaojie and others left Jinling and headed straight for Xingcheng.
On the way back, he went south along the Beijing-Guangzhou line, stopping briefly in Xingcheng and Hengzhou. He stayed in Xingcheng for three days and in Hengzhou for almost half a month.
Hengzhou's stir-fried dishes are very famous. Du Shaojie used to go on the west and east lines when he went out for inspection, and he only went on the central line along the railway a few times.
In the past, he had not been to Hengzhou carefully, but this time he made up for his regret and went around all the places, big and small.
"Xiao Wu, have you learned the dishes [Hengdong Crispy Tripe] and [Boneless Poached Egg]?"
Du Shaojie is a [Master of Hunan Cuisine], and he can easily make stir-fried dishes with local characteristics in various places. As long as you have eaten it, you can copy it perfectly, not to mention that you have watched it in the kitchen.
Wu Chenggang has been following him, so he should be able to learn some basics.
"I can see it, but I don't know if the taste is authentic."
Wu Chenggang smiled innocently, and seemed very confident.
Du Shaojie nodded and did not ask any more questions. After returning to Yangcheng, Wu Chenggang was asked to cook a table of Hengzhou dishes at noon the next day.
"This [Hengdong Crispy Tripe] is well done, and [Boneless Poached Egg] is also well done, but the other dishes can only be said to be horrible."
Du Shaojie's evaluation was very fair. Wu Chenggang felt a little ashamed and lowered his head.
"Lift your head up, what does it look like to lower your head?"
Du Shaojie didn't indulge him. After a low voice, he began to analyze the success and failure of these dishes in detail.
Wu Chenggang didn't dare to neglect it and remembered every word in his heart. If he could overcome these shortcomings, he would make a big step forward in cooking.
At noon the next day.
Du Shaojie continued to let Wu Chenggang cook the same dish. This time, Wu Chenggang learned from his experience and lessons, and the dishes he made had obvious improvement.
"There is progress, but it is far from enough. Go to the training center to practice when you have time. This is not your practice ground."
Du Shaojie was actually very satisfied. He only commented once, and Wu Chenggang was able to improve. It was indeed amazing talent.
But he didn't say it out loud, lest the other party become proud.
It's been quiet recently, and Du Shaojie is still a little uncomfortable. Before, there were endless troubles, and he was a little used to it.
In fact, that person couldn't do anything to him.
His stores are all over the country, with little regional color. The headquarters can be anywhere. At most, he can just change the place.
It's just that the other party is very restrained in doing things, all within the rules, so he is too lazy to move. Besides, the iron camp is always changing, and the other person really can't outlast him.
Facts have proved that his idea is right.
A month after he came back, the province ushered in personnel changes. That person was transferred away, and Jiang Cheng took over the other person's position and became the new leader.
This change was greatly beyond Du Shaojie's expectations, but it was the most beneficial to him.
Next, Lin Zhiyuan was transferred to the Magic City, leaving his hometown with deep roots and going to a strange city.
Du Shaojie was reluctant to let Lin Zhiyuan go, but the general trend could not be violated, and he had no ability to keep him. Before the other party took office, he personally cooked a table of dishes to see him off.
"What are you surprised about? I'm promoted and took over the original position of Leader Jiang."
If it were according to Lin Zhiyuan's own ideas, he would definitely not want to leave his hometown. But some rules cannot be broken. If he wants to go further, he can only go to other places thousands of miles away.
Du Shaojie did not take up this topic, but kept persuading the other party to eat more dishes. As for the wine, it is enough to have the intention, and it is not forced.
"I will definitely visit you when I go to Shanghai in the future, leader, take care of yourself."
Du Shaojie and the other party have no conflicts of interest, but they have helped each other over the years and have established a very deep friendship.
This meal took a full two hours, which was because Lin Zhiyuan was leaving. After he went to Shanghai, he would still be busy every day.
After a while, there were adjustments in Yangcheng, and things were beyond Du Shaojie's expectations again.
Tan Lin, who had met him once before, was transferred to Yangcheng.
"Dongzi, you didn't tell me about such a big thing, it's not nice."
Du Shaojie had nothing to do in the morning, so he called Pang Weidong.
He was not familiar with Tan Lin at all, but there was one person who seemed to have a good relationship with him.
"Didn't I just know about it? Okay, stop complaining. If you have anything to say in the future, just tell me and I'll take you to him."
Pang Weidong laughed and said that no one would reveal such things in advance. There are rules.
Du Shaojie was waiting for the other party to say this. He was not thinking about currying favor with anyone, but when he encountered trouble, someone had to speak for him, right?
The two then talked about some other things and ended the call.
At noon.
Du Shaojie and Wu Chenggang each cooked a few dishes. During this period of time, Wu Chenggang's cooking skills have improved significantly. Wang Yongli and others have long stopped complaining about his dishes.
"Yongli, go upstairs and get a bottle of Moutai and have a few drinks with me."
Du Shaojie was in a good mood and drank a few glasses of wine during the meal.
He is a person who is afraid of trouble. If he can live a quiet life, he will never live a life of fighting. Although it cannot be said that the trouble has completely disappeared now, it will not come as soon as it is said.
It is said that the person behind Yin Qiang was also kicked out of the core circle this time. This is another happy event. At least the boy is busy with his own affairs and has no strength or energy to trouble him.
This is a double happiness, so of course we have to drink to celebrate.
"Ahem, boss, can I have a couple of drinks?"
Du Shaojie and Wang Yongli were toasting each other, and Wu Chenggang, who was eating next to them, was drooling.
Luo Qin and Li Yimei couldn't help but smile. They had never realized that this little Wu was actually into this.
"Oh? So you can drink. You usually pretend to be like that. I thought you didn't drink at all. Go get a cup yourself and drink as much as you want."
Du Shaojie also laughed. The other party might have been embarrassed before, but now that he was familiar with him, he simply gave up pretending.
But this is not a big deal. If you want to drink, just drink.
Du Shaojie had a very happy meal. After the meal, he went upstairs to sleep and slept until the afternoon.
A few days passed in a hurry.
Du Shaojie finally received a call from Jiang Cheng's secretary, saying that Jiang Cheng wanted to have a meal with him.
This was a good thing, so he immediately agreed and asked the other party when and where to meet.
"The leader asked you to arrange it. It'd be better if it's quiet and not too crowded."
Secretary Liu explained with a smile, the subtext was that Jiang Cheng wanted to eat Du Shaojie's dishes.
Du Shaojie thought about it and arranged it at [Fish Restaurant]. After all, [Fish Restaurant] is located in a remote place, and it won't have much impact if it closes for a day.
"Okay, I'll tell the leader, thank you for troubling Mr. Du."
Secretary Liu was very polite and hung up the phone.
