Chapter 439 That Day

Time flies by, and soon it is the day of the tasting banquet.

In the industry, thanks to the Wang family’s publicity, many chefs and gourmets have also learned about this tasting banquet featuring Nanzhi’s signature dishes.

Not all of them have eaten chicken tofu pudding, and not all of them have heard of Nanzhi's name.

I just learned about a female star who appeared on a variety show, became a chef halfway through her career, participated in a documentary, and was officially recognized, etc...

To be honest, these are still not enough to change their natural tinted glasses towards Nanzhi's identity.

Some are curious, some are disdainful, and some are looking forward to it.

"A female chef? That's rare."

"How powerful can someone so young be? It's all hype. The Internet age is harmful!"

"Since the post has been sent, I'll go and try it. I hope I won't be disappointed!"

"A tasting banquet? I'm not going. It's a waste of time!"

"Why did the Wang family spend so much effort on publicity? Do they have any relationship?"

"Surname Nan? Could it be..."

"How is that possible! If he is really that person's descendant, the Wang family won't have time to draw a clear line between them! It's probably just a coincidence!"

"I heard that chicken tofu pudding is her signature dish? This is a skill-intensive dish, and it won't be bad if it's done well. I'm looking forward to it."

"I've eaten the golden egg fried rice she made. It was very famous before, but unfortunately it disappeared for unknown reasons. I heard that the variety show was finished filming? I hope this feast can give me more surprises."

“…”

The Wang family sent out posts like snowflakes, and in the end 70% of them received responses, saying that they would come to participate.

When Wang De got the news, he didn't even raise his eyebrows.

But his son Wang Zhi, who was standing behind him, was furious:

"Dad! Aren't you using our Wang family's reputation to build a relationship with her? Isn't she the granddaughter of that traitor Nan Pingshan? Then what are you doing? Are you planning to repay kindness with ingratitude?"

Wang Zhi is not very old, he is 36 years old this year.

Wang De has two children. The elder one is a daughter who got married and had children early and is usually not in Yanjing.

The younger one was born to his second wife and is Wang De’s only son.

Naturally, Wang Zhi followed the path of his ancestors and became a chef.

For chefs, people in their 30s are at the peak of their careers, when they are young and strong.

However, Wang Zhi's achievements were not high, neither up nor down, and he was not even as good as some chefs in their 20s.

The Wang family is like the watermelons in the field, each generation is worse than the previous one.

The older generation Wang Yongnian is still world-famous and is a leading figure in the chef world.

When it was Wang De's turn, he had good talent but lacked stamina. He was mediocre in middle age and only earned the title of a famous chef when he was old.

By the time Wang Zhi came of age, he was even further behind. He was not even mediocre, and his talent could only be described as very poor! Judging from Wang Zhi's current situation, it was probably impossible for him to shock the Wang family with his cooking skills.

He was determined to make the Wang family bigger and go public, and to firmly control the Wang family through controlling stakes.

Therefore, in Wang Zhi's eyes, everything related to the Wang family belongs to him. If he uses one thing, he will have one less. But he must not let outsiders take it away!

...This made him hate Nanzhi directly! Wang De, who was calculating towards outsiders in every way, was very doting on this son.

The only thing that kept him sane was not telling him the whole truth.

He just explained vaguely: "Don't worry, when have you ever seen your father suffer a loss? I have already made arrangements for Nanzhi's affairs."

Wang De smiled slowly, but his smile was a little creepy.

Wang Zhi was still puzzled, with anger swirling between his brows, and said viciously:

"Anyway, I'm just unhappy! How much cooking skills can a yellow-haired girl who is less than 30 years old have? Why is there such a big fuss about hosting a tasting banquet? I have been learning cooking for almost 20 years and I am not qualified to host a tasting banquet! Who is she!"

Wang De tried to comfort his son for a while, but when he saw that his son could no longer control his temper, he told him the truth.

"Okay, okay, this is actually a plan of mine..."

Wang Zhi's eyes gradually brightened.

After that, he stopped yelling and instead helped Wang De run around.

Wang De was particularly pleased to see that his ignorant son seemed to have finally grown up.

The father and son worked for a while before taking a car to the Yongnianlou branch.

They didn't rush to get off the bus, but watched the crowds of people at the door from across the street.

Yongnianlou has been closed for a day today for the Pingwei Banquet. The diners who used to line up in front of the door every day are gone, replaced by a constant stream of vehicles.

Yongnianlou operates a mid- to high-end catering business, and the lobby is aimed at the mid-range, but the vast majority of those to whom they personally send invitations are high-end diners.

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

Therefore, those who were invited were basically celebrities, business leaders, etc., which also caused a large number of luxury cars to gather at the entrance of Yongnian Building, as if it was a high-class banquet! There were only a few people in ordinary clothes, and those were fans who came for the lottery. They were probably a little scared by the scene of Yongnian Building, so they all looked a little restrained.

Wang De looked at this lively scene in a trance.

In a trance, I seemed to remember that many years ago, when Nanpingshan started out, such a grand tasting banquet was also held.

Because many seniors and diners in the industry were optimistic about Nanpingshan's future, they came to the restaurant to make this feast a grand one! It was once a legend in the industry! And what about the feast he held when he was a master? It was just a plain feast with two or three tables of guests, most of whom were from the Wang family, and there were very few outsiders, because even if he sent out an invitation letter with his name, people might not look up to an unknown chef and make a special trip for this.

For many years afterwards, the sharp contrast between the two tasting banquets became his nightmare and even an obsession.

Today, this obsession is about to disappear.

Nanpingshan is dead.

And Wang De is still sitting here, waiting for the old things from many years ago to be dug up, and the Nan family will continue to be nailed to the pillar of shame, and will never be able to turn over in their lifetime! "Let's go."

"good!"

When Wang De pushed the door and got out of the car, his face had changed.

He met many acquaintances, all of whom greeted him and were curious about the relationship between Nanzhi and Yongnianlou.

Wang De kept the secret:

"You will all find out soon enough."

His mysterious smile actually aroused the curiosity of many people.

"Oh, my son..."

When Wang De was about to introduce Wang Zhi to other acquaintances.

When I turned around, my son was no longer there.

He quickly made a phone call.

Wang Zhi picked up the call and told him excitedly:

"Dad, I suddenly remembered something and need to go somewhere!"

Wang De didn't take it seriously and just told him to be careful on the road.

At the same time, don’t forget to remind:

“Don’t forget the highlight.”
