Ever since Yuan Zhou became more and more famous, many people tried to get Yuan Zhou's number to call him. For convenience, he turned on the authentication. Ordinary people wouldn't need to wait for Yuan Zhou to pick up.
"Why is this person calling?" Yuan Zhou looked at the phone and didn't see anything.
After thinking for a while, he took out his phone and dialed the number. He planned to ask if someone was looking for him for an urgent matter.
"Du du du"
After waiting for a while, no one picked up. Yuan Zhou planned to hang up. After all, if there was really something, the person would probably call again. At this time, the phone was picked up.
"Hello, is this Boss Yuan?" Qin Minghao answered the phone at the last second before hanging up.
"I am Yuan Zhou. What can I do for you?" Yuan Zhou.
"Hello, Boss Yuan. I am Zhou Xin's manager, Qin Minghao. Our Zhou Xin wants to come to your pub to sing. I wonder how much you can pay her? "Qin Minghao was very direct.
He planned to find out the bottom line first and then further discuss. Otherwise, it would be inappropriate to show his trump card right at the beginning.
Moreover, he had already mentioned Zhou Xin's name. It was equivalent to building a bridge. As long as the other party was willing to follow the path, they should give a good price.
Qin Minghao's operation naturally wouldn't be a problem if it was someone else, but unfortunately, it was Yuan Zhou.
Not to mention that Yuan Zhou almost never chased after celebrities, he didn't even like many celebrities. If drama actors were counted, there was one. Therefore, he didn't know how famous Zhou Xin was. Once he heard that she wanted to come to sing, Yuan Zhou's first reaction was to refuse.
Although he felt that he could add some programs for the customers in the pub to make it more lively, singing in the pub was absolutely not in his plan. He wanted something that was the quintessence of Chinese culture, such as Beijing Opera, Sichuan Opera, or something like Two-people Zhuan. That would make it more lively.
Singing … The pub wasn't a slow bar. It didn't need these things.
Therefore, Yuan Zhou directly refused, "I am sorry. This pub is a small business. I don't plan to invite people to sing. Thank you. That's all for now. Goodbye."
After he finished speaking, he directly hung up the phone. He had already made things clear. In order to prevent the other side from continuing to think of reasons to persuade him, it was better not to waste time.
Before Qin Minghao could react, the call had already been hung up. Then, he looked at his phone with a dumbfounded expression before he slowly reacted. "I was rejected?"
Qin Minghao found it a little unbelievable. This kind of situation was completely out of Qin Minghao's expectations. Previously, he had been thinking about how to raise the price to match Zhou Xin's reputation and status. He had never thought about rejecting her.
Qin Minghao picked up his phone and was about to call again when his hand paused. He thought about it and gave up.
Originally, he did not approve of Zhou Xin going there to sing. Now that he had rejected it, he could give Zhou Xin an explanation. However, in the future, Qin Minghao would regret his decision at this moment. However, this was all for the future.
After hanging up the phone, Yuan Zhou put the matter at the back of his mind. After taking a shower and changing his clothes, he began to practice the knife skills that were interrupted in the morning.
"Swish, swish, swish"
As long as Yuan Zhou practiced his knife skills, a group of people would gather in a short period of time. Even the small vendors on Taoxi Road, under the organization of the Taoxi Road Street Office led by Director Wang, had left the area around The Kitchen God, including the small restaurants that held vegetarian banquets and the whole lamb banquets outside, just to prevent this kind of situation.
As long as Yuan Zhou practiced his knife skills, the originally crowded Taoxi Road would become even more congested.
When Si Jinning and Si Hongyuan arrived at Taoxi Road, it was just the end of Yuan Zhou's knife skills practice. It was the time when there were many people.
"Why are there so many people?" Si Jinning was not used to it.
He was very used to it when there were many people in teahouses and restaurants. He liked it very much. However, when there were many people on the street, he felt it was noisy.
"Perhaps there is something going on. Master, do you want to go and have a look?" Si Hongyuan said.
"Let's hurry up and line up." Si Jinning did not want to join the crowd.
However, as they got closer and closer to The Kitchen God, there were more and more people. It was obvious that the crowd was related to the restaurant. Si Jinning and Si Hongyuan were not stupid, so they could naturally see it.
"Is the restaurant holding an event? It's too early, "Si Jinning complained.
When they got closer, they found that the crowd was looking at a young man sculpting. The young man was holding a radish in one hand and a kitchen knife in the other. As he raised and lowered the knife, the fat radish in his hand immediately changed shape.
In Si Jinning's opinion, the radish turning into a white rabbit was no different from magic.
"I didn't expect such a young craftsman to be hiding in this place. It's really good," Si Jinning sighed with emotion.
It was mainly because he was a storyteller. Naturally, he knew the current situation of many traditional skills. Almost many of them were facing extinction. Although he was powerless to change it, he still couldn't help but sigh.
Si Jinning could only manage his own affairs well. However, now that he saw that Yuan Zhou was so proficient in the art of sculpting at such a young age, he was very gratified.
Even though Yuan Zhou used a kitchen knife and used his left hand, Si Jinning thought that Yuan Zhou was left-handed and didn't think of anything else.
When Yuan Zhou's last knife fell, a vivid and lifelike, transparent white rabbit was completed. However, after examining it for a while, he directly threw it into the basket at the side.
Si Jinning almost couldn't help but exclaim in surprise. How could such a good piece of work be thrown away just like that? It was too much. Just as he was about to roll up his sleeves and give it a good tug, the conversation between two people beside him attracted his attention.
"Sigh, it seems that Boss Yuan isn't satisfied with this sculpture at all. It should be flawed, or else he wouldn't have thrown it away. It's a pity that I deliberately wore glasses today, but I still didn't find anything wrong with it. Boss Yuan's requirements are really too high," the tall man wearing glasses said with melancholy.
The slightly chubby man next to him fiddled with the camera in his hand to make sure that he had recorded everything before saying, "It's normal that you can't see it, but I've recorded it several times in a row, and I still didn't find any difference between the work that Boss Yuan threw away and the work that he kept. Can you believe it?"
His tone was full of disbelief. Although Si Jinning didn't know the cause and effect, the information he got was that the person called Boss Yuan should be the young man who used a kitchen knife to sculpt. He didn't throw away the work because he was disrespectful, but because he thought it was imperfect. Si Jinning immediately stopped talking.
Si Hongyuan, who had witnessed the whole process, retracted his hand without a trace, pretending that he didn't see his master's angry scene.
After the short and chubby man finished speaking, the man wearing glasses next to him directly said, "There must be a difference. I know it."
Without waiting for the person next to him to ask, he directly took a breath and said, "Then it must be the difference between perfect and more perfect. Look for yourself, one is better and the other is better. It's obvious, isn't it?"
The short and chubby man originally stretched his neck to listen to the opinion, but he didn't expect to hear such nonsense. He rolled his eyes and didn't speak.
