As soon as Gu Zheng left the venue, the people waiting outside immediately cheered. Some people even broke through the security blockade, ran over, picked up Gu Zheng, and threw him directly into the air.
When they came over, Gu Zheng was startled. Fortunately, he knew that these people had no ill intentions and did not instinctively fight back. Otherwise, these people might fly out.
Nowadays, the strength of Gu Zheng is very great.
Gu Zheng won the first place, and finally cooked a lot of soup for them. Although each person only had a small portion, they were very touched by Gu Zheng's kindness. This time, they did not wait in vain, nor did they support Gu Zheng in vain.
After this incident, even those who came just to join in the fun became die-hard fans of Gu Zheng.
Outside the venue, some people dug out all the articles Gu Zheng had written before, and everyone forwarded them one after another. Many people finally saw Gu Zheng's skill in food, but this temperament made them like him even more, which showed that Gu Zheng was a pursuit.
Perfect people, people who pursue perfection, naturally have very high requirements.
After struggling outside for more than an hour, Gu Zheng was finally released by these crazy people, and finally dispersed and went home.
After working hard all day, Gu Zheng also showed his exhaustion and went back to rest early. When he got up the next day, he found that Mu Mu was not there and Wang Dong was making breakfast. Wang Dong knew that Gu Zheng was very tired yesterday and did not wake him up.
.
"Wang Dong, what are your plans for the future?"
When eating breakfast, Gu Zheng asked Wang Dong. Breakfast was very ordinary. The ingredients were porridge and steamed buns, and the ingredients were all ordinary ingredients that could be bought in the market. Wang Dong's food tasted good, but it was only good.
Gu Zheng is not that picky. If he doesn't do it himself, if others do it, he will never have any objection as long as it can fill his stomach.
"Yesterday our head chef called me and said he would give me a salary increase when I returned. Several restaurant owners also came to see me, hoping that I could come over and the salary offered was not low. I didn't know what to choose.
Brother Gu, how about you help me choose one!"
This Hangzhou Food Competition had a great impact. Although Wang Dong failed to enter the finals, he still managed to break through among more than 5,000 people. In the last preliminary round, he was ranked 32nd, only two short of entering the finals.
Such results are better than many recommended famous chefs.
Some smart people started to take action very early. The impact of this competition was so great, and Wang Dong was so famous. The place where he worked in Su City also knew about it. The head chef personally called him, hoping to retain him and let him work.
go back.
Wang Dong himself has been hesitating. In terms of salary, the salary offered by his original workplace was only below average, but it was much better than before, almost double.
The highest one was from a three-star hotel, which directly offered him a basic salary of 10,000 yuan, and only allowed him to make egg fried rice and nothing else.
A basic salary of 10,000 yuan is not much in the chef industry, but considering Wang Dong's age, there are very few chefs at his age who can earn such a salary, and it is only a basic salary and commission, so this treatment is not bad.
"Don't go to a small place, and there's no need to go back to the old place. Your cooking skills still have a lot of room for development. I suggest you find a place to study first, learn more, make more progress, and then go out to work!"
Gu Zheng thought for a moment and then suggested to Wang Dong that the hotel in Su City where Wang Dong used to work was a four-star hotel, not bad, but not good either. In addition, Wang Dong was just an apprentice before, so his status suddenly changed.
, going back may not be a good thing.
As for the invitation with the highest salary, it was just an ordinary restaurant. Wang Dong's cooking skills are now taking shape. This period is not suitable for him to be independent, but he should learn more.
This time is actually very critical for Wang Dong. Being able to study first will be of great help to him in the future.
"Brother Gu, I also want to study, but I can't go!"
Wang Dong lowered his head. Gu Zheng glanced at him in surprise and then laughed. He knew why Wang Dong said that.
Wang Dong was an apprentice before. His salary was very low. He had to take care of the family and buy a lot of expensive ingredients. He had no savings at all. This time he came to participate in the competition. On the first day he stayed in an Internet cafe. If it hadn't been for Gu Zhenghe
Mumu, I’m afraid I’ll have to live in an Internet cafe forever.
To put it simply, Wang Dong has no money and is short of money.
Smiling and shaking his head, Gu Zheng said softly: "I have two suggestions. First, I know a famous chef in Shanghai. His cooking is very unique. You can learn from him and I will pay for the tuition.
I’ll help you pay, I’ll give you your living expenses, and you’ll pay me back when you make money after you finish your studies!”
Gu Zheng asked Wang Dong to study, not at some cooking school. There was no use for Wang Dong there. Moreover, Wang Dong wanted to follow his own path, and the people there could not teach him anything.
He wanted Wang Dong to learn from a famous chef. He was the kind of celebrity chef who was truly capable and had his own characteristics. He wanted Wang Dong to learn and develop his own advantages by integrating the strengths of others, so that Wang Dong could find his own path.
"Second, my father is in France. He is also good at cooking. If you are not too far away, I can introduce him to you. You can study with him without any tuition fees, and you can also make some money there!
"
Gu Zheng knows only a few famous chefs. The one he mentioned first is in Shanghai. In fact, he is also a good friend of his father and an elder. He has been very good to him since he was a child. Without this relationship, he would not be able to introduce him to them. In fact, the chef industry
It is still very traditional. To study is to become an apprentice. Real famous chefs are very selective in choosing their apprentices. They will not teach at all if they are not recognized by them. There are many people who want to secretly learn some cooking skills from famous chefs.
As for the second one, there is no problem. Gu Zheng knew that his father had always wanted to find a successor. He had always wanted to learn from him before, but Gu Zheng was too lazy and did not agree. He chose to become a food critic.
Now there is a very talented and good seedling, and the wealth will not go to other people's fields, but he can also get rid of it just right.
"Brother Gu, I want to go to Shanghai. I don't need living expenses. I will find a way on my own. I will definitely pay the tuition back to you in the future!"
Wang Dong thought for a moment and then said something. Gu Zheng was a little shocked. It didn't cost anything to go to his father's place, and he could make money during his apprenticeship. Because he was abroad, he would definitely make more money than at home. He didn't expect it.
Wang Dong did not choose his father, but chose Shencheng.
"Why?" Gu Zheng couldn't help but ask.
"Because I'm closer to you, I can still visit you when I have time!"
Wang Dong said it naturally, while Gu Zheng's eyes widened. He didn't expect that Wang Dong chose to go to Shencheng for this reason, just to be with them.
"Silly boy, let's do this. I'll talk about your situation and see what their two opinions are. Whatever is beneficial to you, do whatever you want!"
Gu Zheng shook his head dumbfounded, and at the same time he was moved in his heart. When Wang Dong made the choice, the first thing he thought of was himself, which was really beyond his expectation.
