Hearing Yuan Zhou's name, the girl raised her head and looked at Yuan Zhou carefully before she continued to speak.
"Okay. Please take this elevator to the seventh floor. You'll reach the president's office." While speaking, the receptionist gestured to him.
"Thank you." Yuan Zhou nodded and thanked her. Then, he walked quickly into the elevator that had just opened.
When the elevator went up, the receptionist sat down and said, "I didn't expect Mr. Yuan Zhou to be so young. He seems to be only a few years older than me."
The receptionist was a 22-year-old student who had just started her internship.
Of course, Yuan Zhou didn't know that. He took the proposal and went all the way to the seventh floor. At that time, Zhong Lili was waiting at the door of the elevator.
"Mr. Yuan, please come in." Zhong Lili moved sideways to make way for him.
Yuan Zhou looked calm. He didn't ask how long Zhong Lili had waited. After a nod, he followed Zhong Lili to Zhou Shijie's office.
When they reached the door, Zhong Lili knocked on the door politely and said, "President, Mr. Yuan is here."
"Please come in." Zhou Shijie's voice sounded, followed by the sound of footsteps.
"Hua". As soon as the wooden door was opened, they saw Zhou Shijie had arrived.
"Yuan is here. Please come in and have a seat." Zhou Shijie said smilingly.
"Hello, president." Yuan Zhou greeted him.
"Good. I'm an old man. Of course, I'm fine. I just want to eat your cooking." Zhou Shijie first answered Yuan Zhou. Then, he tilted his head and said to Zhong Lili at the side, "Little Zhong, go get two cups of warm water."
Zhou Shijie knew that Yuan Zhou only drank plain water now. Therefore, he asked Zhong Lili to get them.
"Okay, president." Zhong Lili nodded her head and then turned around and left.
"Thank you, president." Yuan Zhou said.
"Don't mention it. Yuan, this is your first time here, right?" Zhou Shijie led Yuan Zhou into the room and sat on the guest sofa at the side.
Zhou Shijie and Yuan Zhou sat opposite each other at the tea table.
"It's my first time here." Yuan Zhou nodded.
"How about it? Do you have any intention of sitting down with me in a few years?" Zhou Shijie said with a natural tone.
The meaning of Zhou Shijie's words was obvious. He wanted Yuan Zhou to be the president of China Chefs' Alliance in the future.
Yuan Zhou frowned slightly and looked at Zhou Shijie before saying, "I don't have that thought for now."
"Haha, you're just too focused. If you continue to progress and develop like this, no one will be convinced if you don't sit in this position in the future." Zhou Shijie laughed.
Yuan Zhou's goal was to become the God of Cooking. As for becoming the president, he really didn't think about it.
"This is my purpose of coming here today. Chairman Zhou, please have a look." Yuan Zhou didn't answer him. He directly handed out the folder in his hand and changed the topic.
"Yuan, think about it carefully. This position has nothing else but some convenience." Zhou Shijie took the folder and then said earnestly.
"I will." Yuan Zhou nodded his head.
"Okay. Let me see what it is." Seeing Yuan Zhou agree, Zhou Shijie smiled more brilliantly. He lowered his head and started to flip through the folder.
"Chairman, warm water for you, Mr. Yuan." Just when Zhou Shijie lowered his head and Yuan Zhou didn't say anything, Zhong Lili carried two cups of warm water into the room and put them down.
Zhong Lili was tall and slim. She was wearing a pair of high-heeled shoes. She slightly bent over and put down the cup in her hand sideways.
Zhou Shijie didn't even raise his head, but just nodded his head.
"Thank you." Yuan Zhou said gently.
"You're welcome." Zhong Lili shook her head and then turned around and walked out of the door.
Zhou Shijie read very fast. As soon as Zhong Lili left, he raised his head.
"Yuan, you are really thoughtful. This proposal is really good. This village chef is also a chef. It's time for him to have a reputation." Zhou Shijie immediately praised him.
Those who brought delicacies to people and enjoyed the taste were all chefs. Moreover, many village chefs had unique skills.
Hearing Zhou Shijie's praise, Yuan Zhou let out a sigh of relief without a trace.
After all, it was the first time for Yuan Zhou to make a proposal. Therefore, he was a little nervous inwardly. But now it seemed that he had made it very successful.
"It seems that I also have a talent for making a proposal." Yuan Zhou thought happily.
"Chairman, when do you think we can start the preparation for this activity? I'll be responsible for the funds." Yuan Zhou said.
"Tomorrow." Zhou Shijie said immediately.
"Thank you, chairman." Yuan Zhou said.
"Don't mention it. But Yuan, you are still too honest. The funds can't be provided by you alone." Zhou Shijie said smilingly.
"Chairman, I have money." When Yuan Zhou said that, he was quite confident.
"I know you have money. But those ingredients of yours all cost a lot. You just need to provide a part of it." Zhou Shijie said.
"What about the rest?" Yuan Zhou knew that Zhou Shijie was trying to help him save money. It was for his own good, so he didn't refuse him anymore.
"Our Chef's Alliance will provide a part of it. Of course, the other part will be provided by the government. It's a good thing for publicity. With the help of the government, we can do it better." Zhou Shijie said.
"Um." Yuan Zhou nodded the head.
"But our province is too small. After all, it's the first time for you to be a sponsor, Yuan." Zhou Shijie knitted his brows and thought for a while.
"How about this? Let's expand it a little. Our three provinces in the southwest will hold this activity together. What do you think, Yuan?" Zhou Shijie consulted.
"If you agree, it's naturally good." Yuan Zhou said.
"Of course, I want to make it bigger. Yuan, it's time for you to make a name for yourself. Just leave it to me." Seeing Yuan Zhou agree, Zhou Shijie immediately made the decision and said.
Before Yuan Zhou said anything, Zhou Shijie immediately picked up the phone on the table and made a call.
"Little Zhong, come in for a moment." As soon as the phone was put through, Zhou Shijie said immediately.
Zhou Shijie couldn't be blamed for acting so fast. It was just that he felt Yuan Zhou was too low-key. He didn't participate in many activities. Or to be exact, the number of activities he had participated in up to now could be counted with one's fingers.
It was rare that Yuan Zhou was willing to be famous. Naturally, Zhou Shijie wanted to publicize him well. A famous chef naturally had to be famous.
"Chairman, what's the matter?" Zhong Lili opened the door and walked in.
"Have a look at this proposal. But to make it a big activity involving the three provinces in the southwest, the sponsor should be Yuan." Zhou Shijie handed the proposal to Zhong Lili and said.
"Ok. I'll leave it to you tomorrow." Zhong Lili received it and said cleanly.
"Ok." Zhou Shijie nodded his head. Only then did Zhong Lili leave with the proposal.
"Yuan, if you have any ideas in the future, just tell me directly. You don't need to come here personally. In this way, I can go to your restaurant to have a meal." Zhou Shijie turned his head and looked at Yuan Zhou and said smilingly.
"We can have lunch together at noon." Yuan Zhou said.
"Haha. That's great. Let's go. Let's go now." Hearing that, Zhou Shijie immediately pulled Yuan Zhou up and turned around, walking towards the door.
"It's not lunchtime yet." Yuan Zhou reminded him.
"Yuan, you eat the dishes cooked by yourself every day. A well-fed man doesn't know the suffering of a starving man. I haven't eaten the dishes for more than a week and I'm craving for it. If we go faster, we can get a good seat and eat earlier." Zhou Shijie pulled Yuan Zhou's hand and said while walking. They walked very fast.
"If we go now, we can get the first seat." Yuan Zhou said.
"That's great. I don't have to always be behind that small mustache man." Zhou Shijie said smilingly.
While talking, the two of them directly arrived at the hall on the first floor and were about to walk out of the door.
