After the test was completed, Gu Zheng was no longer so nervous. After going to Liang's house to make a delicious meal to thank him, Gu Zheng returned home and stayed leisurely for a few days.
He originally wanted to meet up with Du Yang and the others, but one of the three had just been promoted and was busy taking over the work at hand, with almost no free time. The other one had already found a house and was renovating it, so he wanted to do his job well.
Photo studio.
The other one has returned to his hometown, studying every day, preparing for the civil service exam, and trying to pass the exam in one go. The three of them are busy, so Gu Zheng will not disturb them, and he will be leisurely at home.
“The Ancient Master Chef!”
Just after two days of leisure, the phone rang suddenly. It was Mumu calling. When the call was connected, Mumu's teasing voice came out.
"Mu Bian, you are so free!"
Gu Zheng hurriedly called Haha. Mumu's call must be up to no good. He had long been used to it.
"Chef Gu, although you are now the number one chef in the country, the debt we owe should always be repaid. There is still one manuscript you promised me last time that has not been handed in. When will it be handed in?"
Mumu didn't shout directly to urge the manuscript like before, but was more polite, but being polite was also urging the manuscript.
In fact, Mumu had no choice. She didn't want to make this call. It was the director who urged him to make the call. She was the only one with the closest relationship and familiarity with Gu Zheng in the entire channel. Now the food channel's traffic has dropped sharply, and everyone has been criticized, so
I want to find Gu Zheng to write an article to increase traffic.
Now Gu Zheng is no longer an ordinary food critic, he is the country's new chef god. No matter what he writes, many people will definitely read it, and the traffic will definitely increase by then.
Mumu made this call out of desperation, asking her to beg Gu Zheng but she couldn't do it. It happened that Gu Zheng promised her three articles last time, but in the end he only gave her two, and she still owed the next one.
This will lead to debt.
"Yes, yes, editor Mu, don't worry, I will hand over this manuscript to you soon!"
Gu Zheng hurriedly agreed, and this was indeed what he had said before. As a result, there were many things, delays, and Mumu called to urge him, so he definitely couldn't continue.
Fortunately, there is only one article left. I have nothing to do recently, so I can go out for a walk and write a good article. It seems that he has not written an article for a long time. Food review is his main job.
"You, you agreed?"
Mumu on the other side of the phone was in a daze. She didn't expect Gu Zheng to agree so readily. She thought she would have to beg in the end to get Gu Zheng to agree.
After all, Gu Zheng's identity is different now. He is the number one in the national food competition, the most famous celebrity chef in the country, and he also has his own business. She is very clear about how popular Gu Ji's chicken blood soup business is. On the website
There have been more than ten manuscripts written about Guji Chicken Blood Soup.
Good business means good profits. Nowadays, Guzheng is not short of money at all, so it doesn’t look down on their small remuneration. The money Guji Chicken Blood Soup makes in a day is more than their commentator who gets the most remuneration.
Much.
In other words, the money Guji Chicken Blood Soup makes in one day is more than the total remuneration they send out in a month. After all, they are just a channel, and a small channel at that.
Under such circumstances, she was a little surprised that Gu Zheng could agree so readily.
"Of course, don't worry, editor, I will definitely give you the manuscript in three days, five days at most!"
Gu Zheng said hurriedly. He didn't know what Mumu was thinking at this time. He only knew that this was indeed a debt he owed. Besides, he didn't want to give up his job as a food critic now. He might as well write more when he had time.
The writing is good.
"Okay, Gu Zheng, thank you, you haven't changed at all!"
After a while, Mumu thanked him, and his voice was much gentler than before, which made Gu Zheng very confused.
But Mumu is right about one thing. Gu Zheng has indeed not changed. He is still the same Gu Zheng. His attitude toward people has not changed because he has made more money and is famous. This was the case in Gu Zheng before.
I will also ensure that every time I push the manuscript, the current ancient controversy is still the same.
However, Mumu didn't feel anything before and everything was taken for granted, but now, it makes her feel deeply.
Once a person's identity and status change, even if he is doing the same things as before, it will be different for many people. Mumu now deeply understands this.
"Okay, I have something to do, so I can't stay at home anymore!"
After putting down the phone, Gu Zheng stood up and stretched. He hadn't written a manuscript for a long time and missed this job.
Food reviews sound very simple. You just need to find a food and write a review. In fact, it is not like that. First of all, the food you are looking for must be unique, not the kind you can eat casually on the street. It will not work if it has no characteristics.
The second thing is that you either criticize or praise. Regardless of whether you criticize or praise, there are supporters and opponents. There will definitely be people who will go to the place you mentioned to taste. Once what you write does not match, they will come over to expose you and criticize you.
It's a liar.
Therefore, food articles must be done seriously, otherwise it will be easy to ruin your own brand. Gu Zheng’s current brand is quite good, but he doesn’t want it to be ruined just like that.
After packing up and going out, Gu Zheng walked to the subway station alone.
"Brother, do you want to take the driver's license test?"
As soon as he arrived at the subway station, a young man came up to him and asked him a quick question. This familiar scene left Gu Zheng stunned.
A little girl asked him this at the beginning, and he went out of his way to sign up, but was stared at by Ouyang Hai. After that, Ouyang Hai followed him and became the most powerful thug in his place.
"Sorry, I have already signed up!"
Gu Zheng smiled slightly, and after hearing that Gu Zheng said that he had signed up, the man stopped bothering him and went to ask someone else.
Speaking of which, Gu Zheng has not taken a test since he signed up, and he doesn't know if anyone from the driving school has contacted him. Anyway, his mobile phone often had no signal before and could not be contacted.
A driver's license is still required. It is better to get it when you have time, so that it will be more convenient to drive by yourself in the future.
Although now he has no problem driving even if he doesn't have a driver's license, and even if he is caught by the traffic police, he can use magic to pass, but that is not always good. It is more stable to have his own driver's license.
Thinking of this, Gu Zheng took out his mobile phone and called the driving school to inquire.
"Gu Zheng, right? We have contacted you many times, but we have never been able to contact you. You should have taken the exam long ago. Let's see when you have time. OK, I will arrange it for you right now. In a week,
There is an exam in a week. I have nothing to do in the past few days to read more books. The first time is the theoretical exam!"
The call was quickly connected. The driving school was very responsible. After finding out Gu Zheng's name, he made arrangements immediately. After hanging up the phone, Gu Zheng entered the subway station. The most important task at the moment was to finish the food draft.
Gu Zheng did not go to the city center. Most of the food in the city center has not been written about. It is not easy to find a unique one. Moreover, Gu Zheng does not want to criticize anymore this time. He wants to find a truly unique food.
Review.
It was okay to criticize him before, after all, he was not famous, but now he is criticizing, it may not even have the effect of criticism.
Criticism of Gu Zheng has little effect now. Even if it is criticized, people will say that we accept the criticism from the number one in the country. Anyway, what we do is not as good as Gu Zheng.
This is not Gu Zheng’s speculation. Some merchants have pulled out Gu Zheng’s previous articles.
They originally wanted to strangle Gu Zheng for their critical articles, but now that Gu Zheng has become famous, it has immediately become their pride. Some people even print out Gu Zheng's articles and put them in the store for customers to see.
Let’s not talk about the criticism of Gu Zheng. At least this is a restaurant that Gu Zheng has eaten at and reviewed. It is an incredible achievement to be able to serve Gu Zheng.
This is what happens after a person becomes famous.
So Gu Zheng doesn’t plan to write any more criticism this time. Instead, he will write about a delicacy that is truly distinctive and worthy of praise. As long as it tastes really good, Gu Zheng will help him advertise for free.
Gu Zheng took the subway directly to the train station or high-speed rail station. He didn't care about the location. When he saw the nearest car, he bought one and went directly to the nearby city.
Gu Zheng bought a ticket to Hangzhou. He and Hangzhou were destined to be together. His road to fame first started in Hangzhou.
The Hangzhou Food Competition, Gu Zheng became famous in one fell swoop. After that, the National Food Competition became famous all over the world, and he became the most popular Chef God.
The high-speed train reached Hangzhou very quickly. After arriving in Hangzhou, Gu Zheng randomly chartered a car at the station and asked the driver to take him to a place he thought was delicious.
Many delicacies in Hangzhou have been written about, but much less than in Shanghai. After all, the food channel is based in Shanghai, so Shanghai is the most written about.
There was no need to go to some of the most famous places, as they were all written poorly. Gu Zheng asked his master to take him to places with good reputation among the people, especially some small shops, so that he could still find really delicious food.
