Chapter 752
The opening ceremony of the National Culinary Competition was held in the Cultural Square in the provincial capital, where everything had been set up for a long time, and the scene was also crowded.
Li Chen found Chen Xiaohua, and then under Chen Xiaohua's lead, they went to the guest table and sat down.
"Yanyan, the list of judges I let you know last time, do you have any further information?"
At this time, Li Chen remembered this matter, and then asked Pan Yanyan next to him in a low voice.
"They were reluctant to disclose the list of judges in advance, saying that they were worried that some contestants would find good relationships in advance. So I didn't get it in advance either. Pan Yanyan replied.
"Well, it's okay, we'll be able to see the judges' roster information in a moment. They will definitely publish it. Li Chen said.
"Mr. Li, why do you want to know more about these judges? Chen Xiaohua is the chief judge of this time, isn't it enough to have him? Pan Yanyan expressed puzzlement.
"Yanyan, this time you are not as eye-catching as before, right? You also know that Chen Xiaohua is the chief judge, so how is our cooperation with Chen Xiaohua?
"Chen Xiaohua can be said to be a big customer of our group, I understand, what you mean is that this time our customer goal is not only to be those contestants, but also to the judges."
Pan Yanyan is really a smart person, and Li Chen immediately understood it with such a little.
"Yes, that's what I thought. Perhaps most of them, like Chen Xiaohua, have a certain influence in the food industry and the catering industry, and there must be many catering stores under them. As long as we can cooperate with them, then we have a few more big customers like Chen Xiaohua. Li Chen affirmed.
"Gao, this trick is really high, then I will pay close attention to it later and strive to get in touch with them." Pan Yanyan gave a thumbs up and praised.
"Now there is no need to contact them deliberately, let them taste the rebirth wine, let's go find them." These people probably also ask them to sell ingredients and products, and if they can't taste the difference of our rebirth wine in advance, it is estimated that it will be difficult to impress them. Li Chen thought for a moment, and then ordered.
"Also, then we'll wait and see."
Pan Yanyan only completely understood at this time that her young boss was playing chess in the next game, a big chess game.
Being able to do business like a formation of troops simply made Pan Yanyan feel like a grandmother crossing the road was not convinced, so she obeyed Li Chen's sigh.
Just as the two exchanged whispers, the opening ceremony of the National Culinary Competition officially began on the other side of the stage.
As with all opening ceremonies, the host came up to briefly introduce the theme and purpose of the event, then some relevant leaders attended the speech, and then some representatives of the judges came out to promise the fair and just nature of the competition.
This set of processes, Li Chen experienced too much in his previous life, and he was not interested at all. He came here today to see the excitement and look for business opportunities that he can start.
Zhou Weihua's work this time is very good, you can easily see the words about rebirth wine at the opening ceremony of the National Culinary Competition, which is an excellent advertising opportunity, I believe that such an important thing today will definitely appear on the TV news, and then Rebirth wine can also be seen by more people.
After the opening ceremony, it was time for the first round of culinary competition.
The chefs who signed up for the national culinary competition also entered the venue one after another, preparing their own ingredients, and after the host's order, they could start working.
Pan Yanyan and Luo Xin'er went to see the excitement, but Li Chen set his sights on a young man.
Because he always felt that this person was a little familiar, and seemed to have seen it somewhere, but he couldn't remember it for a while.
"Li Chen, what do you see? It's so fascinating.
At this time, Chen Xiaohua, who was busy at this time, came over and said hello to him.
"Elder Chen, you just came, what's the name of this player? I always feel a little familiar. Li Chen asked Chen Xiaohua directly.
"His name is Qiu Daji, and he's a chef from Kyoto." Chen Xiaohua replied.
"Qiu Daji?"
When Li Chen heard this name, he suddenly thought of the famous chef Qiu Daji in his previous life.
No wonder he feels a little familiar, because this is his own friend ten years later.
At this time, it was 1999, Qiu Daji looked relatively young, and his figure was not as fat as in 2023, so Li Chen was difficult to recognize for a while.
Speaking of this Qiu Daji, Li Chen still remembers that he has several high-end restaurants in Kyoto, and after becoming famous, his catering industry has franchised stores in major developed cities across the country.
But this is all a matter of 2023, and now Qiu Daji should only have one or two high-end restaurants in Kyoto.
But if Li Chen can cooperate with him in advance, then he can develop into an important big customer of Rebirth Group.
And now the market in Kyoto, Li Chen has not yet opened, you can also take this opportunity to open the market there in Qiu Daji.
"Yes, his name is Qiu Daji. What's wrong? Do you know him? Do you want to let him come to you when the game is over? Chen Xiaohua said enthusiastically.
"Thank you Elder Chen, you are the main judge this time, it is not appropriate for you to find a contestant during the competition. In this way, I will contact him myself when the time comes. Li
Chen is a sensible person, and although Chen Xiaohua is willing to help with this, he does not want Chen Xiaohua to fall into some negative discussions.
And he remembers that the turning point in Qiu Daji's life and career was because of this national culinary competition, maybe he can really win the national culinary competition this time.
Once he won the championship, and Chen Xiaohua, the main judge, approached him privately, it was inevitable that some contestants who did not win the award would play tricks. It's human nature.
Chen Xiaohua was reminded by Li Chen like this, and only then did he feel that what he had just said was inappropriate, so he said with an embarrassed smile:
"What you said is reasonable, but I was negligent for a while. Okay, you contact him yourself when the time comes. If you can't get in touch, when this national culinary competition is over, I will help you act as an intermediary.
"Thank you Elder Chen, I'll take a look at it again." If you need me anything, feel free to find me.
"You're so polite, you're the sponsor of this national culinary competition, you're our guest." It's up to us to serve you. Chen Xiaohua said with a smile.
"This is what I should do, if the number of Rebirth wines is not enough, you can tell me anytime." Li Chen said boldly.
"Enough, your people have already given enough quantity, and they have given a few more boxes." At noon, we will also have a dinner table for guests. You will be at a table with me then, and we will have a few more drinks. Chen Xiaohua invited warmly.
"And lunch? I don't know about that.
"Today is the day of the opening ceremony, naturally there will be a banquet, we have written in today's event document, didn't you pay attention to it?" Several of the judges, including me, as well as the staff of the event group, had a lunch. Chen Xiaohua said.
Li Chen had not opened this activity file just now, so naturally he could not see it.
He also thought about where to take Pan Yanyan and them to eat at noon, and now it seems that there is no need to worry about this matter. And you can also take this opportunity to meet several other judges and lay the foundation for your next plan....
