The opening ceremony was naturally a great success. Zhao Yongjun, Song Rui, and the others all came from prominent families. The guests they invited today were either the cream of the crop in their circle or influential rich businessmen. Naturally, everyone was there to celebrate.
Zhao Yongjun only said a few words, then announced the start of the cold dinner party.
Everyone freely walked around the banquet hall and exchanged greetings with their close friends.
In order to create an atmosphere, Hou Liang even specially arranged for a few popular singers to sing.
In the eyes of ordinary people, the lineup of singers who played the role of warming up the atmosphere could be considered luxurious. Most concerts might not even have so many A-list celebrities. However, at the opening ceremony of the Taoyuan Club, they really only played the role of warming up the atmosphere.
These celebrities came to perform for free. On one hand, Hou Liang was the son of Hou Tai and had a frightening amount of resources in the entertainment industry. People in this circle were naturally willing to be on good terms with Hou Liang. On the other hand, the Taoyuan Club was a high-end social event. Celebrities naturally flocked to such a place.
Therefore, even if it was a free performance, there were still a lot of celebrities fighting to come.
Hou Liang chose for a while before deciding on the current lineup. Celebrities who weren't famous enough didn't have a chance to come even if they had to pay!
After the cold dinner party started, Ling Qingxue specially went to Ling Ji Private Kitchen to take a look.
Today's occasion was also very important to Ling Ji Private Kitchen. Although Brother Wu was outstanding and was also Ling Xiaotian's disciple, Ling Qingxue was still a little worried.
Although the opening ceremony banquet was called a "cold dinner party," there were actually many "hot dishes". In fact, it was a bit like a buffet, but the scale was bigger and the standards were higher.
A few of Ling Ji Private Kitchen's signature dishes would also appear at the cold dinner party.
Including the secret Buddha Jumps Over The Wall.
Brother Wu had rushed to Beijing a few days ago to start preparing. This dish would become a signature dish in Beijing's Ling Ji Private Kitchen in the future, so he didn't dare to neglect it.
Today, the banquet hall was surrounded by long dining tables filled with all kinds of delicious snacks and delicacies. The most eye-catching one was the first table after entering the door. There was a row of eye-catching jars neatly placed on it. There was a total of five jars. These jars were placed on a specially designed rack on the table, and there was hot water circulating underneath to keep them warm.
This was the secret recipe 'Buddha jumps over the wall' that Ling Ji Private Kitchen had been preparing for the past few days.
The jar that was used to store the 'Buddha Jumps Over The Wall Soup' today was also specially made. It was several times bigger than the 'Buddha Jumps Over The Wall Soup' that Ling Ji Private Kitchen usually sold. It looked like a wine jar, and the layers of ingredients inside were very solid. Every ingredient was processed strictly according to the standards and was very precise.
Just these ingredients alone were already expensive.
Before the cold dinner party began, the jars were all sealed with lotus leaves, so no one felt anything strange. At most, they were a little curious when they saw a few large jars placed there.
As soon as the cold dinner started, the service staff removed the seal on the mouth of the jar, and the special rich fragrance immediately spread in the banquet hall.
The guests today were either rich or respectable. What had they not eaten before? However, no one could resist the temptation of this fragrance, and they all looked towards the source of the fragrance.
Soon, someone could not help but walk over with a plate.
Today, all the service staff of the Taoyuan Club were gathered in the banquet hall. For them, this was also the first 'real battle' after the opening of the club, so everyone was fully focused.
When the guests arrived at the 'Buddha Jumps Over The Wall Soup', the service staff immediately went forward to serve them. They scooped out all kinds of perfectly cooked ingredients from the jars.
Fish gelatin, free-range chicken, pork trotters, abalone, quail eggs, and each of these ingredients emitted a tempting fragrance. When these fragrances were mixed together, there was a special kind of attraction. Many guests could not help but swallow their saliva.
Soon, the area around the long dining table where the 'Buddha Jumps Over The Wall Soup' was placed became the most lively place. There was an endless stream of guests who were attracted by the delicious food.
After everyone tasted it, they were all subdued by the exquisite taste. Praises rose and fell one after another.
Zhao Yongjun and the others also took the opportunity to promote the dish.
"Dongzi! This' Buddha Jumps Over The Wall Soup 'is not bad, right? Our Taoyuan Club has a private restaurant, and this' Buddha Jumps Over The Wall Soup 'is the signature dish of the private restaurant. The chefs were specially invited from the three mountains, and their skills are absolutely authentic! If you have time in the future, you can bring more people over to try it! "
"Director Guo, I'm not bragging, right? Isn't the signature 'Buddha Jumps Over The Wall Soup' top-notch? If you want to try it next time, you can directly come to our Taoyuan Club's Ling Ji Private Restaurant. But remember to make a reservation in advance! "
"Haha! Yongzi, if you have any social events in the future, remember to come to our Taoyuan Club's private restaurant! Not only is the environment here good, but the most important thing is that the taste of the dishes is top-notch. If you treat your friends to a meal here, you'll definitely have a lot of face! "
Of course, compared to tasting the food, everyone was more interested in interacting with each other. The main purpose of the guests coming here was not to eat. They were more interested in the Taoyuan Club's platform, as well as the connections they could expand here.
Therefore, the fact that Ling Ji Private Restaurant's' Buddha Jumps Over The Wall Soup 'could create such an effect in such an environment was undoubtedly a victory.
Ma Yun, Ma Huadian, and the others could not help but try it. After they came back, they all gave Xia Ruofei a thumbs up.
Ma Huadian was from Cantonese, so he loved to eat. He had his own unique views on food.
He smiled at Xia Ruofei and said, "Boss Xia, your 'Buddha Jumps Over The Wall Soup' is really amazing! I've eaten the most authentic 'Buddha Jumps Over The Wall Soup' at the three mountains, but the taste was far inferior to the one cooked in the big jar today. "
"Our Jiangnan Club also wants to introduce this dish," Ma Yun could not help but say, "Boss Xia, your private restaurant can cooperate with us!"
Before Xia Ruofei could speak, Ma Huadian smiled and said, "I also want to add this dish to our Penguin Group's staff cafeteria!"
"Low end!" Ma Yun snorted.
"Everyone is equal in front of good food!" Ma Huadian retorted. "Don't think that just because you have some stinky money, you can deprive others of the right to taste good food!"
Ma Huadian's words made Liu Dong, Cheng Ou, and the others laugh out loud.
Speaking of 'having some stinky money', everyone present here was within this range. Ma Huadian's words even included himself in the scolding.
When Xia Ruofei saw this, he spread his hands and said, "Chairman Ma, Brother Ma, the one who provided 'Buddha Jumps Over The Wall Soup' is Ling Ji Private Restaurant. They were also specially invited by our Taoyuan Club. We're in a cooperative relationship, so if you want to cooperate, you can talk to Ling Ji Restaurant Group. I believe they'll be very willing to cooperate with us."
"Ling Ji Restaurant Group?" Liu Dong, who had been silent all this while, muttered to himself. Then, he slapped his forehead and said, "Boss Xia, that's your girlfriend's family business, right?"
Anyone who paid a little attention to entertainment news would know about the relationship between Xia Ruofei and Ling Qingxue.
Ma Yun laughed and pointed at Xia Ruofei, saying, "Boss Xia, you're not being kind! You actually want to get away with it! Luckily, Boss Liu reminded us of this! Boss Xia, since it's your girlfriend's family business, it's not an outsider! You have to help facilitate the cooperation. We're relying on you! "
Ma Huadian also nodded seriously and said, "Yes! Boss Xia, I'm also very sincere. I want to bring in such a high-quality restaurant company to our staff cafeteria. "
Xia Ruofei teased, "It's not a problem for me to help pull some strings! But if it's done, how are you going to thank me? "
Ma Yun scratched his head and said, "Why don't you get Brother Ma to top up some money for you?"
Everyone burst out laughing when they heard that. Even Ma Huadian couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Xia Ruofei had a helpless look on his face as he shrugged. "You're really stingy!"
Actually, whether it was Jiangnan Club or Tencent Group's staff cafeteria, if Ling Xiaotian's Private Home Cuisine could really enter, it would be immeasurably beneficial to the company's reputation. Moreover, Ling Xiaotian had always been planning for expansion. He was definitely looking forward to a cooperation like this.
Therefore, although Xia Ruofei looked reluctant, he still agreed in the end and said that he would try his best to mediate and facilitate the cooperation.
Ma Yun and the others' influence in Huaxia was not inferior to some of the mid-level wealthy families. Therefore, there were people coming over to greet them and hand them business cards.
When they saw familiar friends, they would also pick up their wine glasses and walk over to exchange a few pleasantries.
Ma Yun and the others had already experienced these kinds of social events countless times. They were all like fish in water and were very familiar with it.
Xia Ruofei, on the other hand, did not like to socialize. Therefore, other than taking food from the table, he spent most of his time sitting in this corner, watching Zhao Yongjun and the others work around the clock. He, on the other hand, was happy to be idle.
After the opening ceremony ended, Ma Yun and the others said goodbye to Xia Ruofei and left together.
Many customers stayed to experience the various leisure and entertainment activities of the Taoyuan Club.
With experience, there would naturally be expenses. After the opening of the Taoyuan Club, the first income was quickly generated. A few of Song Rui's friends went to the golf course to play. Naturally, they had to pay to use this kind of venue.
Xia Ruofei wanted to bring Ling Qingxue and Song Wei back. However, after the stunning appearance of 'Buddha jumps over the wall', many customers went to make reservations for tonight's' Buddha jumps over the wall '. The other signature dishes were also very popular. Therefore, Ling Qingxue was busy working with the staff at the private restaurant.
Therefore, Xia Ruofei, Song Wei, Yiyi, and Song Rui went to the filming location of 'Yearning for Life' not far away. Then, they strolled around the lake for a while.
Just as they were strolling along the lakeside path, Zhao Yongjun called.
Xia Ruofei picked up the call and said with a smile, "Brother Zhao, you have to drink slowly! Don't drink too much! "
Zhao Yongjun was a little tipsy. He laughed and said, "It's not that bad. I know how much I can drink. Ruofei, Brother Zhou just found me. He wants to talk to you about something. Are you free now?"
Zhou Leiyun? Xia Ruofei had a little doubt. The matter with Zhou Yuan was already over. Why was Zhou Leiyun still looking for him?
However, he definitely had to give face to Zhao Yongjun. Xia Ruofei thought for a while and said, "Brother Zhao, I'm fine. Since he wants to see me, get someone to arrange a meeting room! I'll be there in a while! "
"Alright!" Zhao Yongjun said, "Leave it to me! I'll arrange it immediately! "
Xia Ruofei could hear that Zhao Yongjun's voice was a little excited. Although he wasn't drunk to the point of being unconscious, he definitely drank a lot.
After Xia Ruofei hung up the phone, he said to Song Wei and the others, "I have to go over. Brother Zhao is looking for me. You guys have fun here first! I'll come and find you later! "
Song Rui waved his hand and said, "Go! Go! We're happier without you. "
Xia Ruofei laughed and said, "Yiyitong, teach your Song Rui a lesson. This guy is crazy!"
At this time, Song Wei also smiled and said, "I won't stay and be a third wheel. Let's go together! I'll go find Sister Qingxue! "
"Alright!" Xia Ruofei nodded and said.
So he took Song Wei to the main building of the club, leaving the space for Song Rui and Yiyi.
Song Wei went to Ling Ji Private Kitchen to find Ling Qingxue, and Xia Ruofei went upstairs to the meeting room that Zhao Yongjun had just arranged. He pushed the door and walked in.
Zhao Yongjun and Zhou Leiyun were sitting inside and chatting. When they saw Xia Ruofei walk in, the two of them stood up at the same time and walked out to greet him.
"Boss Xia!" Zhou Leiyun had an apologetic look on his face and said, "I'm sorry again! It was my nephew, Zhou Yuan. "
Xia Ruofei waved his hand and said, "CEO Zhou, that matter is already in the past. Brother Zhao knows my character. I'm not the kind of person who acts one way in front of others and calculates behind their backs. So let's not talk about this in the future, okay?"
"Okay, okay, okay! Boss Xia is magnanimous. I thank you on behalf of Zhou Yuan! "Zhou Leiyun said.
Zhao Yongjun smiled and said, "Brother Zhou, I'll follow you! Ruofei is a very generous person, and he won't beat around the bush. Let's forget about this. Don't mention it in the future. "
"I know, Yongjun!" Zhou Leiyun said.
