Cheng Guanli has a lot of sketch scripts in his mind, all of which are classics.
Now that the script of the classic sketch "Making a Movie" has been written back, it means that it appeared too early.
This time he had to choose the script well according to the current environment.
The skit of "Making a Movie" in my memory was performed by Chen and Zhu at the 1985 Spring Festival Gala, and what he is now planning with Teacher Huang is the 1982 employee New Year's Eve Gala.
It was 3 years earlier than in his original world. During the period after the reopening, no matter the economic or social environment, it was the same every day.
Three years of development will indeed require a lot of openness. No wonder the skits that could be broadcast nationally on TV in 1985 could not be performed within CCTV in 1982.
The reason why the superior leaders were cautious this time was probably because there were higher-level leaders coming to watch.
Otherwise, last year he was able to act in "Eating Noodles" which was purely hilarious, and his superiors did not criticize him after watching the video. Why not let him continue to act in "Making a Movie" with characters and backgrounds this time?
Thinking of this, a light suddenly flashed in Cheng Guanli's mind.
"That's right! There must be a higher-level leader coming, otherwise they wouldn't be so cautious. If that's true, then this gala will determine whether the Spring Festival Gala can be successfully broadcast nationwide next year!"
Thinking of this, Cheng Guanli suddenly felt that the burden was a bit heavy and he had to be cautious.
You can't rush to choose a script. You have to wait for two or three months, depending on the situation at that time.
…………
Soon it was one month before the restaurant opened.
Xu Yuzhen calculated the accounts for one month.
Business has been getting better and better over the past month, and the last few days were as popular as the opening day.
Cheng Guanli often went to the kitchen to help out after get off work. He also specially purchased pickled vegetables from Bashu and officially launched pickled fish.
Not only that, Xu Yuzhen also asked Xu Yuzhen to purchase more than 100 kilograms of Chaotian peppers and personally pickled the pickled peppers. The sour and delicious pickled pepper chicken feet became one of Shu Xiangxuan's signature dishes.
Word-of-mouth spreads, and diners who come to dine have already begun to call to reserve a table. If you don't reserve a table, you won't be able to get a private room.
Cheng Guanli specially asked Xu Yuzhen to answer the phone line, and the phone calls for ordering food were never idle every day.
After Xu Yuzhen finished calculating her accounts for a month, she couldn't help but smile.
"In one month, after excluding various costs and workers' wages, our net profit was actually two thousand!"
Cheng Guanli was not surprised at all, and even felt a little lacking.
I remember watching the Qingman TV series before time travel. Not long after it was re-opened, Yan Jie and his wife opened a restaurant and gave Sha Zhu a salary of 2,500 a month. Although the time was a few years later than now, it is also consistent with the reality.
It will only get better and better in the future, and it is very likely to double in price.
Although my restaurant only has two floors, its single floor is large. It was once the activity center designated by the Shiyuan Hutong Neighborhood Committee, where it held both conferences and parties.
Nowadays, the life of ordinary people is still a bit tight, and there are not many people doing business, so prices and the economy are still in a state of springing up.
After a few years, when the economy improves, I will definitely earn much more than Yan Jiecheng's Sichuan restaurant in the TV series.
Lao Huang knew the market, nodded and said with a smile: "There will be more next month, especially the two new dishes of pickled fish and pickled pepper chicken feet. Many people want to try them, but it is a pity that none of the eight disciples can become apprentices."
, I’m almost overwhelmed, okay, you just take your time and I’ll go back!”
Xu Yuzhen said hurriedly: "Uncle Huang, your salary!"
Lao Huang waved his hand, "I told you a long time ago that the calculation will start in half a year. Don't include my salary in the calculation next month!"
Lao Guanguan smiled and said: "Let him~"
Cheng Guanli said: "Sister Yuzhen, Uncle Huang's salary needs to be calculated every month in the account, and he will be paid in total at that time."
Xu Yuzhen nodded, immediately followed the instructions, and then divided the net profit into three parts.
Xu Yuzhen and Lao Guanli each receive 20%, which is 400 each and Cheng Guanli 1,200.
Lao Guanguan said: "I still put mine inside, just remember the account. Anyway, I don't spend it now."
Cheng Guanli said: "Sister Yuzhen, you have to take your share. This will be your source of income after you leave your job. Don't be polite to me. Take 900 and pay off my uncle and aunt's debt. Thank you again for me."
Please help me and invite them to the restaurant for dinner tomorrow."
Xu Yuzhen said with a smile: "Okay, just take 400. I will borrow the 500 in a few months. I will make my parents happy tonight."
"Okay, give me 1,000, I can use it."
"Haha, okay, you can take whatever money you want!"
In addition to spending his own money, Cheng Guanli also plans to go to the building materials trading company to pay off Su Ying's debt tomorrow afternoon.
It was interesting enough for Su Ying to help redeem the calligraphy and paintings, so she had to mention the matter of repaying the money.
After the three of them settled their accounts, they locked the door of the restaurant and walked back to the alley together.
Lao Guanguan smiled and said: "Did you know? Cheng Dehai's restaurant is about to open!"
"Where is it? I run to the stage every day and I really didn't pay attention."
"It's just outside Dongzhimen, less than two stone's throw away from our Shuxiangxuan. I don't know where he hired a Sichuan cook. He also sells Sichuan cuisine. It is said that he sells what we sell, and the price is cheaper than ours."
"Hey? What does this old Cheng want to do against us?"
"I only listened to what Lao Li from the backyard said. I don't know whether it's true or not. Anyway, Cheng Dehai has to get up sooner or later. After all, he has that background."
Cheng Guanli thought for a while and said with a smile: "It's okay, just let him do whatever he wants. If it's unfair competition, he will definitely be cheating himself. The gain will outweigh the loss and it will make people laugh. I have to make him into a sketch and put it on the stage!"
In the past month, Cheng Dehai couldn't recover no matter how he recovered, and his heart ached when he heard that Cheng Guanli's restaurant was so popular.
Mrs. Cheng felt sorry for her son and knew that it was a heart disease that no medicine could cure, only heart medicine could cure it.
So Jianwen was asked to immediately rent the place he was looking for and start decorating and opening the business immediately.
With Mrs. Cheng's decision, Cheng Dehai's spirit really recovered a bit.
But if you want to compete with Cheng Guanli who also specializes in Sichuan cuisine, his son Cheng Jianwen's cooking skills are a bit lacking. He is not a Sichuan cuisine learner.
The only choice is to hire a Sichuan cook, but chefs who really understand Beijing-style Sichuan cuisine have their own stable jobs, so there is no other way except to pay them high wages.
In the end, Cheng Dehai decided to offer a high salary of 200 a month to recruit a chef, and let the chef cook the first stove, Cheng Jianwen to cook the second stove, and Cheng Jianwu to help.
After a year and a half of good food, good drinks, good hospitality, and good words and flattery, Cheng Jianwen was able to learn his real skills and started working as a chef again.
After making up his mind, he actually found a chef named Zhao in the south of the city.
This old Zhao guy is relatively straight-forward. He always offends people in the workplace and is unsatisfactory at work. He is preparing to leave his job and go it alone.
When I heard that Cheng Dehai offered a high salary of 200 yuan a month, I immediately agreed.
During this time, brothers Cheng Jianwen and Cheng Jianwu were busy renovating the restaurant.
Since the place is much smaller than a restaurant, the decoration was almost completed in half a month, and they would be open for business in less than ten days and a half.
Lao Zhao heard that Shu Xiangxuan was famous, so he came here once as a diner.
It happened just a few days ago. Lao Zhao was shocked by the pickled fish. He seemed to have heard of this dish somewhere, but he was not sure. It was his first time trying it.
The spicy and sour taste, and the tender and fragrant fish meat made him couldn't help but nod.
After returning home, I praised Shu Xiangxuan’s fish in sour soup to Cheng Dehai.
Cheng Dehai said disdainfully: "What's the point? We do it too, Master Zhao. Our first dish is fish in sour soup! The price is cheaper than theirs!"
Old Zhao frowned and said: "Isn't this...a bit unauthentic? Besides, it's too late to order and deliver sauerkraut from Bashu, and we can't use sauerkraut from the Northeast instead."
"Hey! What's the matter? You don't know how to pickle sauerkraut yourself? Anyway, there are still about ten days."
"How can it be that easy?"
"Let's pickle it first. We only need pickled vegetables. How can you, a great chef, be stumped by pickled vegetables?"
"It's really not that easy. Pickles have very high requirements for climate and temperature, otherwise they won't be able to pickle the same flavor, and they'll become sour again."
"Just give it a try first, and we'll tell you later if it works. I'll ask Jianwen to find channels to purchase goods from Bashu now. Let's not delay the opening and have a good fight!"
Seeing that the explanation didn't make sense, Lao Zhao could only nod his head and said: "Okay, okay, you are the boss and I will listen to you, but if it doesn't work, don't blame me." This chapter has been completed!
