Chapter 1314: A great opportunity

The first time “I’m leaving, you come” appeared in the public was at the vermere letter-Reading Conference. Wu Hai didn’t go there himself, but Zheng Jiawei brought him there.

Although the Vermell letter-Reading Conference did not seem like a low-class event, and it did not seem to have anything to do with painting, it was actually a very serious art exhibition.

First of all, Vermell was one of the greatest painters in European history. There was no need to elaborate. As for the joke of reading letters …

“The woman who writes letters and the maid”,”the woman who writes letters”,”the girl who reads letters by the window”, and “the woman in blue who reads letters”. Yes, these were all Vermell’s paintings.

Therefore, it was named letter-Reading Club. In terms of level, the Willie letter-Reading Club was the top exhibition in Europe.

No one had ever exhibited their works while they were still alive. Wu Hai was the first one.

The content was mainly based on an old man and a young man. It was the old man and muscular coward. The scene was that the old man had finished his meal and the table was empty. Muscular coward was about to sit on the empty seat.

And looking at the surrounding diners, it seemed like the old man had told something interesting, causing people to want more.

The scene was relatively simple, but Wu Hai’s drawing was not. From the way the strong and timid man walked and sat with the old man, it was more like a handover of inheritance.

In the painting, cowardly Zhuang was very close to the old man. If one looked carefully, the old man seemed to have given cowardly Zhuang a book.

…

There was a lot of hidden information. For example, there were four words hidden in the entire painting,”Chu, Qing, Jiu, Yu”. Also, the dishes on the table were dried beef strips, roasted whole lamb, and Yuxiang shredded pork. There were many other details.

It was a breakthrough for Wu Hai whether it was the sense of beauty, emotion, content or painting skills.

This painting was highly sought after by many foreign countries. Even after the painting was declared to be not for sale, Zheng Jiawei still received bidding calls from many collectors and museums. Even the other paintings of Wu Hai on the market were much more expensive.

His little sidekick, Zhou Xi, had been beating around the bush. Where else could he go if he didn’t buy “I’m leaving, you come”?

After that, Wu Hai only had one answer. Shameless Wu said,””This painting has a place where he should be.”

Back to the main topic, Zhou Shijie and Zhong Lili arrived at Yuan Zhou’s restaurant at 4 pm.

“Uncle Zhou, didn’t you set the time at 4:30? Why did you arrive half an hour earlier?” Yuan Zhou immediately came out of the kitchen to greet him.

“There’s something else that I can’t delay, so I came earlier.” Zhou Shijie found a seat and sat down.

“Yes, uncle Zhou, please go ahead.” Yuan Zhou was waiting for the rest of the story.

“Little Yuan, do you know about the cooking exhibition?” Zhou Shijie asked first.

“A cooking exhibition similar to an art exhibition?” Yuan Zhou had vaguely heard of it before, but he didn’t really care.

“That’s right. Little Yuan, are you interested in holding a cooking exhibition?” Zhou Shijie also went straight to the point.

As mentioned before, this wasn’t popular in China. Therefore, Yuan Zhou subconsciously thought they were going abroad and thus answered,””It takes too much time to hold a cooking exhibition abroad. I can’t close my restaurant for so long.”

“Hahaha, I knew it.” Zhou Shijie chuckled, as if he had already expected Yuan Zhou to answer in this way.

Originally, Chu Xiao had also planned to do so. But after discussing with Zhou Shijie, he felt that this matter was not appropriate. Therefore, the two of them made some changes.

“It’s definitely not okay to let you close the shop for so long. ” “If I really do that, I’m afraid that your customers will tear my old bones apart,” said Zhou Shijie.

Zhou Shijie paused for a moment and continued,”although the culinary arts Exhibition is for foreigners, it doesn’t mean that it doesn’t exist in our country. Little Yuan, are you interested in hosting the first large-scale culinary arts Exhibition in our country?”

“The first in the country and the largest.” Yuan Zhou caught the two keywords and continued to listen to the follow-up of Zhou Shijie’s words quietly.

“Our chef’s Association and the Sichuan cuisine Association will be holding a cooking exhibition in Chengdu,” the chef said. Zhou Shijie said,”at that time, we will invite those foreigners to take a look. It’s just that we don’t want to participate in the culinary arts Exhibition. It’s not that we don’t know how to.”

“Can I ask for the specific arrangements?” Yuan Zhou was moved. He was quite looking forward to the International stage now.

“Of course you can.” Zhou Shijie agreed and signaled Zhong Lili to take out the documents with his eyes.

Zhong Lili immediately handed the preliminary plan to Yuan Zhou deftly. It was about seven or eight pages of A4 paper.

Yuan Zhou read it very seriously. Although he was looking forward to it, he had to be clear of himself when doing things. Otherwise, it would be a Big Bad thing if he implicated the two presidents.

“It is indeed a large-scale exhibition.” Yuan Zhou muttered to himself. He had never expected that it would be such a big deal this time.

According to the current scale of the plan, the exhibition would invite more than a dozen countries, including England, France, the United States, Germany, Italy, and more than 30 famous chefs or gourmets.

Needless to say, it was no exaggeration to say that the scale of the event was no less than the Sino-Japanese exchange held in Shanghai.

The solo exhibition would last for three days, and the exhibition would be held from two to six.

“You don’t have to worry about dealing with the reporters and other things.” “Little Yuan, if you’re confident that you can take it, I’ll give you an idea,” said Zhou Shijie.

“You only need to take a day off. The first day is the opening ceremony of the cooking exhibition. On the second and third days, you can temporarily change the business hours.” Zhou Shijie gave a kind suggestion.

Yuan Zhou understood what Zhou Shijie meant. He probably wanted to change the business time from 12:00 to 2:00 to 11:30 and from 6:00 to 8:00 in the afternoon to 6:30 to 8:00.

One pushed forward while the other pulled backward.

Such an arrangement was undoubtedly the time that Zhou Shijie would try his best to accommodate him. Except for the necessary opening ceremony, even the closing ceremony was omitted.

“Thank you, uncle Zhou,” Yuan Zhou said gratefully.

Zhou Shijie said,”there’s no need to thank me. If you really want to thank an old man like me, little Yuan, you should think carefully about the cooking exhibition in the proposal. Is that okay?”

“Alright, I’ll have to think about it.” Yuan Zhou nodded his head and then thought for a while seriously.

In the end, Yuan Zhou asked,”uncle Zhou, what’s the theme of the culinary arts Exhibition?”

“As long as it’s to showcase the culture of Chinese cuisine, it’s fine. There are no specific requirements. Therefore, little Yuan, you have to come up with the idea yourself. It’s a heavy responsibility.” Zhou Shijie said.

Yuan Zhou nodded his head. It could be said that the opportunity to show off his culinary skills was as great as the pressure.

In this case, there was no room for failure. Led by the China chefs ‘Association and the Sichuan cuisine Association, it was equivalent to half an official event.

The most important thing was that failure meant losing face abroad.

Considering his ability and experience, Yuan Zhou looked at Zhou Shijie with an appraising gaze and said firmly,””Uncle Zhou, I’ll take on the first large-scale personal cooking exhibition in China!”

“I will make all the foreign chefs and gourmets here love Chinese food.”

As a chef, Yuan Zhou felt it was his duty to do so at this moment.
