Chapter 147 Journalist Interview

Xie Hua is a reporter for the Yenching Daily.

As one of the oldest newspapers, Yanjing Daily ranks among the top in the domestic market and has a profound influence in various fields.

Xie Hua has been in the company for three years and is proud to be a reporter for Yanjing Daily wherever he goes.

For the sake of his career, he constantly strives to become the best among his colleagues and the one most appreciated by his leaders.

Judging from the treatment he received some time ago, Xie Hua almost thought he was going to succeed...

Why almost?

Because Xie Hua found that he seemed to have been banished to the cold palace overnight.

Otherwise, how could he be suddenly sent to interview some unknown little restaurant? Even if he wrote a wonderful article about this kind of restaurant that has no news value, would anyone really read it? Oh, and this restaurant seemed to be a derivative of some variety show, and everyone from the waiters to the chefs were celebrities.

So this is why the boss arranged for him to come? Another marketing promotion?

Xie Hua, who had great career aspirations, felt that his ideals were tainted by money and was very depressed.

So that the whole person exudes a sad and salty smell.

"Why."

Xie Hua sighed heavily.

Suddenly someone patted him on the shoulder:

"Don't worry, brother. We will eventually get our turn if we wait in line."

Xie Hua looked up in confusion:

"What's our turn?"

When he focused his attention and looked at the scene clearly, his pupils suddenly shrank! It turned out that while he was listless, he had squeezed into a large group of people. He was at the back of the line, and there were at least more than 50 people in front of him!

Which supermarket is doing marketing and giving out gifts? Business is so good!

Xie Hua was a little puzzled and apologized to the person behind him: "I'm sorry, I went to the restaurant next door to eat, and I went to the wrong place."

He was about to leave when the enthusiastic brother behind him pulled him back in time:

"There's no such thing as a small restaurant next door. This is it! We're all lined up here!"

"W-what?"

Xie Hua was stunned, he couldn't believe his eyes! "So many people are here to line up for food? Is this restaurant offering a free promotion?"

Otherwise, Xie Hua really couldn't figure out what kind of charm could make so many people willingly stand here and wait!

The enthusiastic elder brother laughed:

"What kind of freebies are you talking about? Our boss Nan doesn't even offer a 10% discount!"

As he spoke, several people behind the eldest brother nodded in agreement:

"Don't even mention discounts, no price increase is good."

"I would rather the boss raise the price. The queues are getting longer and longer every day."

“Didn’t they add a new store? It feels like nothing was added!”

"What misunderstandings do you have about the business of Nan's Restaurant?"

“…”

Xie Hua looked at the group of people of different ages, both men and women, and was curious out of professional instinct:

"You're all friends?"

The enthusiastic elder brother answered solemnly:

"No, we are dining partners."

"ha?"

Is a dining partner a special and sacred relationship? Isn’t it also a friend? After a detailed explanation, Xie Hua finally understood——

It turned out that this group of people, including the enthusiastic brother, were members of a local food group in Yanjing, and the enthusiastic brother was the group leader.

As for the group members, there are those who have worked diligently for many years, the second generation of rich people whose life goal is to eat, drink and have fun, and the stupid college students who are still in school and have not experienced the harshness of society...

Usually, there is no idle chat or false advertising in the communication of this group. What there is is only the food recommendation from the heart of each member! In their tireless search for food, from high-end restaurants with an average cost of over a thousand per person to inconspicuous street food stalls... It can be said that food is the only truth that foodies believe in!

"…If a recommender is found to have made false advertising more than three times, we will immediately dismiss that person!"

The enthusiastic elder brother raised his chin and promoted their rules quite complacently.

The people behind him nodded one after another, their eyes full of pride and approval! Xie Hua was stunned.

This group of people seems too... interview-worthy! Xie Hua quickly took out the recorder and small camera that are essential equipment for reporters: "Actually, I'm a reporter from Yanjing Daily. I want to come to interview this Nanjia Restaurant. I'm curious about why you came to this restaurant. Do you mind telling me in detail?"

The enthusiastic brother was very surprised:

"So you're a reporter? Will we be on TV if you film us? What time do you broadcast the news?"

"We are the Yanjing Daily, not a TV station..."

"ah."

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

The enthusiastic brother was a little disappointed and felt that he had missed an opportunity to make a prominent appearance in the circle of friends.

This made Xie Hua start to doubt himself.

Since when did the identity of a reporter for the Yanjing Daily become so worthless? However, the enthusiastic brother was still very enthusiastic. He nodded readily:

"Okay, just ask whatever you want to ask!"

Xie Hua was about to speak.

The enthusiastic brother was suddenly pulled by a young boy behind him: "Brother, don't."

"What's wrong?"

“What if the reporters report this and Nanjia Restaurant’s business gets better? We can’t even get in line right now. If there are more people… then I’ll really have no choice but to set up a tent in front of the store overnight!”

Xie Hua had to politely remind them: "If you affect the city's appearance, you will be taken away."

So it is highly unlikely that setting up a tent will work.

The young boy blushed: "Then I'll stand!"

Xie Hua was really confused: "Are you really so obsessed with this little restaurant? Or are you actually here for the celebrities?"

"Celebrity? What celebrity?"

"You don't know?"

Xie Hua had no choice but to tell the origin of Nanjia Restaurant.

Enthusiastic big brother and others:

"oh."

Xie Hua couldn't help but ask:

"Aren't you surprised?"

The enthusiastic brother waved his hand and expressed the thoughts of the foodies: "Who cares who opened it, as long as it tastes good!"

With Xie Hua's insight as a reporter, he could naturally see that these people were speaking from the heart.

Forced to come for an on-site interview, he originally had some preconceived bad impressions of this Nanjia Restaurant.

But now that I think about it calmly, I realize that he was biased.

Xie Hua sorted out his thoughts and began his interview with a professional and serious attitude:

"Can you tell me in detail how you found this store?"

The enthusiastic brother patted his chest and said, "Of course I recommended it! My parents live nearby. I live in another district and come to visit them once a week. But last week, when I came over, I found that the old couple sneaked out and said they were going to rob something. I thought they were scammed by a pyramid scheme, so I followed them quietly and found that they were going to buy braised meat! The braised meat from this store is so delicious, gulp..."

I'll update one chapter first, and then another chapter later.

There have been a lot of things going on recently, and my writing plan has been disrupted. I haven't been able to get back on track, and I'm working hard to adjust. I will definitely return to the regular 10 am update within next week!
