"I think about it. I actually know someone who is in the theater business. However, it is incomparable to a national one like Wansheng. It only has some influence in Jiang Province."
Yang Hai thought for a moment and said.
"Why, my brother is interested in the local film and television industry."
Yang Hai said with a smile.
"It doesn't matter if you make a movie and think about where to release it. No matter how good the movie is, there probably won't be much to schedule."
Hao Ren explained casually.
It is not enough to have some influence in Jiang Province. Even if the entire province is fully booked, it cannot compare with the whole country.
"I heard that Wansheng Group's film and television sector has not been doing well in the past two years, and I have always wanted to take action. However, just to arrange films, there is no need to spend such a high price."
Yang Hai thought for a while and said with a smile, "I heard that my brother is familiar with Mr. Guo from Puyun Investment. This man is said to have a lot of Wansheng Pictures shares in his hands and is considered a major shareholder. If Mr. Guo comes forward, he should be able to
It helps me a lot."
Hearing this, Hao Ren nodded, "Thank you for the news, brother."
"No, it's nothing. I haven't helped you either."
Yang Hai said with a smile, but he thought that when he went back, he would ask his friends if they had a film and television section.
After staying at Hao Ren's house for almost two hours, Yang Xuan also squatted on a horse for half an hour. It must be said that although this little guy doesn't like to study very much, he listens to the advice of the master.
Yang Hai and his wife finished discussing business with Hao Ren and left with the little guy.
"Master, I will come back to you tomorrow."
Yang Xuan looked reluctant to speak.
Da Niu smiled and nodded.
…
The next day, Hao Ren received news from Guo Lin, saying that everything was done. They agreed to Hao Ren's request, but they needed to sign a contract immediately. After all, the event could not be delayed any longer and needed to be prepared quickly.
Hao Ren asked Liu Zhengfeng to prepare the contract and rushed to the office of the CEO of Puyun Capital with Qu Shan. In addition to Guo Lin, there was also an old man wearing a Tang suit.
"Brother, come on, let me introduce to you. This is the initiator of this event, President Lin Quan of the Chinese Culinary Federation."
Guo Lin saw Hao Ren and introduced him with a smile.
"Mr. Lin is also a master of Sichuan cuisine and once hosted the production of a state banquet."
Hearing this, Hao Ren was a little surprised. Master of cooking skills, this is not just talk. Without real skills, this crown can crush people to death.
Although the other party is very old, he is still strong and strong, his silver hair is very neatly styled, and he is holding two walnuts in his hand.
A pair of slightly cloudy eyes looked at Hao Ren, as if he had a thorough understanding of human nature and sophistication.
"Mr. Hao's name, the old man has also heard about it. I can only say that the waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves ahead. Nowadays, young people are becoming more and more powerful. It is impossible to refuse to accept the old..."
Mr. Lin Quan said with a smile.
"The old man won the award. It's all luck and nothing. The old man is what impressed me. He can host the state banquet. It's really eye-opening for me."
Hao Ren complimented humbly. People like Lin Quan must have some old-fashioned ideas. Don't say anything else, just blow hard.
This is also true. Hearing Hao Ren's compliment was the most proud thing in his life. Lin Quan's smile unconsciously widened by three points.
Everyone was seated. Qu Shan sat behind Hao Ren and listened quietly. Her only role was to provide financial support.
Because this is initiated by the China Culinary Federation, and only if this organization takes the lead, it will have such great influence and will be recognized by people across the country and by peers.
Most of the standards of the chef industry are formulated by this federation. There are more than hundreds of thousands of members in this federation alone, spread across the country.
If you want people to participate in the activities, you must rely on the call of the General Assembly.
Guo Lin said with a smile, "I communicated with Mr. Lin before, and Mr. Lin agreed. However, Mr. Lin also wanted to talk to me about something, so he came all the way here."
Hearing this, Hao Ren nodded. Lin Quan was obviously not in Jiang Province, and he probably came by plane after hearing the news.
"I wonder if Mr. Lin has any advice? I will accept it with an open mind."
Hao Ren looked at the other party with a smile.
Hao Ren lowered his attitude, as the other party was not easy to say harsh words.
Lin Quan looked at Hao Ren with a smile on his face, "Don't take advice seriously. Mr. Hao is willing to invest in our event. I should thank Mr. Hao."
"Haha, I'm not afraid of Mr. Lin's jokes. I'm just a businessman. When I invest in this activity, I just get what I need."
Hao Ren smiled.
Lin Quan's expression remained unchanged, but he cursed the little fox in his heart. Hao Ren made it clear that he was a businessman, without any emotion. The underlying meaning was that if he could not achieve his goal, then this activity would be useless.
There is no need to invest anymore.
This is an activity initiated by them, and it has been carried out for many years without any mistakes. If it cannot be carried out because of lack of investment, it will be a huge disgrace.
If it's 50 million, they won't be able to come up with it, but it will drain all the family's wealth.
Moreover, the association does not belong to him alone. It is true that he is the president, but there are also vice-presidents and others below. If he wants to take out the money, the people below may dare to remove him.
"Mr. Hao, as the sponsor, we have held this event for many years, so we naturally have our own complete process. You said you want to modify the rules, what do you mean?"
After hearing what the other party said, Hao Ren's expression did not change, "It's not interesting. I just want to change the form. The core remains the same, but the specific presentation method may change."
"Of course, I don't have too specific ideas at the moment, but it's just for convenience in the future."
He also won't make a loss-making business.
This statement was extremely vague, so Lin Quan didn't know how to refute it.
Doesn’t it mean that there is no need to change any rules, just follow the previous way of holding it? In this case, what is the significance of Hao Ren’s investment?
Moreover, Hao Ren also gave him a guarantee that the core rules would remain unchanged and would not directly turn a competition into a talent show.
"Mr. Lin, times have changed, and some rules should also be changed. Perhaps, after changes, we can do better than before."
Guo Lin also smiled and said that he also contributed 10 million. Of course, this money was just a round-up to give an explanation to the officials.
Lin Quan sighed, shook his head with a wry smile, "Forget it, forget it, as long as it doesn't go too far, I won't say anything."
Hao Ren asked Liu Zhengfeng to take out the contract and hand it to the other party, "Mr. Lin, take a look at it. If you have no objections, you can sign it. Then, I will arrange for someone to organize this event."
Lin Quan took the contract, looked at it in general, and signed his name without hesitation. With Guo Lin here, he believed that Hao Ren would not cheat him in the contract.
After signing the contract, Guo Lin proposed to go to a restaurant, but old man Lin Quan said with a smile, "There is no need to go to a restaurant. The old man has been cooking all his life, and it just so happens that the two big bosses are here. It can't be justified if the old man doesn't show his skills."
Hearing this, both Hao Ren and Guo Lin's eyes lit up. It was definitely a rare thing to be able to eat food cooked by a master chef.
"Mr. Lin is willing to cook, which is a blessing for us people."
Guo Lin smiled and complimented.
Although he has a lot of money, the number of times a master chef personally cooks for him is pitiful.
Among them, the most excited ones are Liu Zhengfeng and Qu Shan. They have never eaten it before.
"I didn't expect that I could get this kind of treatment from my boss."
Qu Shan was a little surprised. At her level, if she wanted to eat food from someone like Lin Quan, she probably wouldn't have any hope in her next life.
Soon, a group of people arrived at a private restaurant. Lin Quan was not alone. There were also some apprentices and assistants. Hao Ren only saw it when he went out.
When they arrived at the restaurant, the original boss stood aside and watched Lin Quan change his clothes and start cooking.
"The first dish is Dongpo pork elbow."
Lin Quan smiled slightly, picked up the ingredients that had been prepared nearby,
"Dong" "Dong"
There was a quiet sound, and they only saw the flash of a knife, and three cleaned elbows were cut into pieces. Each piece was extremely neat and even, as if it had been measured with a ruler.
Everyone was shocked when they saw this, including Hao Ren. They were extremely amazed. This kind of knife skill was not a little bit better than his own.
Put the cut elbow into the pot and blanch it with water, then start cutting the ingredients.
His movements are simple and sharp, without any unnecessary movements. Every movement looks so pleasing to the eye and full of beauty.
"A master is a master. Even if we practice for ten years, we will not be able to match this knife skill."
One of Lin Quan's disciples praised him with a look of admiration on his face.
However, no one present objected, they all agreed.
"He is a master of cooking, his skills are close to the Tao."
Hao Ren was amazed.
Twenty minutes later, Dongpo elbows were cooked. This dish also has a small allusion. During the Song Dynasty, the great poet Su Dongpo visited the Yongxiu area and cured the disease of a local farmer's child. The farmer expressed his gratitude.
, specially left him to eat. During the dinner, Su Dongpo recited a poem: "Grass pearls are fragrant to the heart."
The farmer who was cooking in the stove heard this and thought that this was Su Dongpo teaching him how to cook meat - "cook the whole meat with grass until the heart is fragrant", so he quickly put the pork and the straw holding the meat into the pot to cook.
Later known as Dongpo elbow
Of course, the real Dongpo elbow is not that simple.
Looking at the Dongpo elbow on the plate, everyone couldn't help but drool, but no one spoke first.
Lin Quan continued his work and made mapo tofu and spicy chicken.
After cooking these three dishes, Mr. Lin Quan felt a little tired and handed the rest to his apprentice.
Although his apprentice is not as skilled as him, he is much better than the average chef in a five-star hotel.
