After exchanging pleasantries, Rui Yuchen introduced, "This is Zhang Yahui. He's the person-in-charge of the snack market. Let him show you around and introduce the situation of the snack market."
He lowered his voice slightly. "Also, he was originally a stall owner selling roasted cold noodles. You can dig deeper about that!"
Rui Yuchen obviously did not intend to steal the limelight and leave all the exposure to Zhang Yahui.
Zhang Lixian's eyes lit up after hearing Rui Yuchen's introduction.
He was originally a snack stall owner?
There were too many things to dig out!
How did an ordinary snack stall owner become the person-in-charge of the snack market?
Zhang Yahui was so young. He definitely could not have relied on himself. In that case, was there a story of 'Boss Pei's sharp eyes' that could be told?
At the thought of having so much exciting content to dig out, as a news reporter, she felt her blood boiling.
"Let's hurry up and start then!"
Zhang Yahui did not expect a reporter from the television station to come over for an interview. He was not too prepared.
However, how could he drop the ball at such a critical moment?
After all, he was not representing himself now, but Tengda Corporation's image.
If he could not stand up at such a time, what right did he have to be the 'person-in-charge'? How could he live up to Boss Pei's trust in him?
What's more, he knew the entire situation of the snack market by heart. As for his own experience, there was no need to consider it. He could just open his mouth.
Zhang Yahui nodded at that thought. "No problem. Let's talk as we walk."
Zhang Yahui led Zhang Lixian and the cameraman along the best route.
Zhang Lixian was a professional reporter after all. She might have never been to the snack market before but she asked a few very key questions the moment she opened her mouth.
That was because she noticed that this snack market was completely different from other snack streets the moment she entered!
As a provincial capital, Jingzhou naturally had its snack streets.
However, Jingzhou's snack streets were not much different from the snack streets of other cities. There were no obvious advantages.
Zhang Lixian had also reported on the local snack streets of Jingzhou many times before. However, she felt a headache every time because there was no special explosive point in the content.
However, after arriving at the snack market, she noticed that the decoration style, overall atmosphere, snack prices, tour route planning, interactive games, and other aspects were all obviously different from traditional snack streets!
Therefore, she used these aspects as a starting point. She introduced the food in front of the stall, tried the food, and asked Zhang Yahui questions.
Zhang Yahui answered her questions one by one.
"The decoration style of the snack market is cyberpunk. The direct source of this style was a popular movie by Fei Huang Workspace, 'Tomorrow is Beautiful'."
"We mainly considered two points when designing. The first is that it can be linked to the movie so that everyone can taste the delicacies while experiencing the immersive movie scenes. The second is to make a difference in style. At the same time, the cyberpunk style is more in line with the spiritual core of the snack market."
"What's more, the design of this snack market depends entirely on a enthusiastic friend from Tengda Games. He used game design concepts to arrange a lot of interactive content for the snack market?
Including regularly refreshed half-price stalls, stamped cards, and other designs?
It has greatly enhanced the interaction of the entire snack market. "
"Here, I want to express my special thanks to him!"
"As for why these snacks are so cheap … it's actually a special request from Boss Pei.
Was it after a large amount of subsidies?
That's why they pushed the price down to this level. "
"Opening discount? No, no, no, it will always be this price in the future. "
"This kind of pricing?
On one hand, it's so that everyone can enjoy delicious food without any burden and not miss out on delicious food because they feel that it's expensive?
On the other hand, it's also because?
Profit is not the first goal of the food market. "
"The mission of the food market is to respond to the call for the transformation of the old industrial zone and showcase the snack culture from all over the country. It is not purely commercial …"
Zhang Yahui spoke confidently in front of the camera and answered fluently.
Zhang Lixian could not help but nod.
That's great!
Obviously?
Zhang Yahui was the person-in-charge of the snack market?
He had a deep understanding of the snack market. The positioning was very accurate, and the explanation was very easy to understand.
Next, he had to ask some more crucial questions to sublimate the theme.
"I heard that you used to be a snack vendor. How did you become the person-in-charge of the snack market?"
Zhang Yahui heaved a sigh of relief.
He told her about his experience.
He dropped out of high school to set up a stall with his parents because his family conditions were not good.
Fortunately, he was smart.
He liked to study on his own and was famous locally for his roasted cold noodles.
After that?
The Cold-Faced Lady held a street food competition and Zhang Yahui's roasted cold noodles received unanimous praise from the judges?
He was hired as a gourmet consultant.
After that?
Boss Pei made an exception and promoted him to be the person-in-charge of the snack market?
That was why the current scene was happening.
At this point, Zhang Yahui sighed emotionally. "Speaking of which, I'm really, really grateful to Boss Pei!"
"As an ordinary snack vendor, I'm very honored to be promoted to be the person-in-charge of the snack market and be in charge of such a huge project."
"However, this is only one aspect."
"More importantly, the snack market allows us vendors to feel the warmth of home and a special humanistic care!"
"A small stall is a means of livelihood for a vendor. On a larger scale, the stall economy and the small shop economy can also increase jobs. It's smoke and fire, the taste of ordinary people's lives."
"However, to be honest, there are too many difficulties in setting up a stall!"
"As a vendor, setting up a stall means waking up early in the morning and working late at night. They have to start preparing before dawn and only return late at night."
"Many vendors occupy the road to operate, the quality of the snacks is uneven, dishonest transactions, littering, and other phenomena make many people prejudiced against food stalls."
"Just like the previous street interview: most people support food stalls and night markets, but the premise is that they can't be under their own homes."
"Therefore, even though my previous income from setting up a stall was not bad, I've always had a very contradictory mentality. I don't have a sense of identity with what I'm doing."
"Is what I'm doing meaningful? Can I have other pursuits other than earning money? Could it be that I'll continue setting up stalls like this for the next ten or twenty years? "
"This often makes me feel lost and confused."
"On the other hand, the snack market not only provides a more secure life for all of us vendors, but it also shows us a more orderly, healthy, and civilized way of setting up stalls!"
"Here, we don't have to worry about the risks of life, we don't have to worry about screening raw materials, or we don't have to worry about being misunderstood. All we have to do is make good snacks seriously and satisfy the tastes of customers."
"We can feel that we are living with respect. We can feel that the future is optimistic and full of hope. We can also see that the food stalls will not die. Instead, they will integrate into modern city life in a more advanced and civilized way and become a part of the city's food culture."
"I think this is the concept that Boss Pei wants to convey through the snack market!"
Zhang Yahui had been thinking about the deeper meaning of Boss Pei's actions ever since he arrived at the snack market.
These ideas slowly sprouted during the preparation process and as he communicated with the other vendors.
Obviously, Boss Pei did not open the snack market to earn money.
Just as Rui Yuchen had analyzed, this might be to create a huge food and beverage empire. He wanted the snack market, the Cold-Faced Lady, and the documentary "The Stalls" to create a snack food and beverage brand.
However, Zhang Yahui firmly believed that there must be a cultural factor in addition to the commercial goal.
This cultural factor was to preserve and display the outstanding snack culture. It was to correctly regulate and guide the snacks so that they could survive, develop, and eventually integrate into people's lives. That way, these fireworks could continue to burn in the increasingly cold big city.
Zhang Yahui expressed his feelings during the interview. He told her about the hardships and emotions he had experienced as a vendor over the years.
Zhang Lixian's eyes lit up.
Look, look! That was great!
Not only did he have down-to-earth life experiences that were easy to resonate with, but he also had a deep economic and cultural analysis after being elevated!
He could not help but sigh. There were masters in every industry.
For an ordinary stall owner to be able to speak so well, it was really amazing.
Of course, he could not rule out the possibility that his horizons had been broadened after entering Tengda's platform.
All in all, this interview with the snack market was perfect!
First, he used the unique layout and decoration style to attract attention. Then, he tasted the affordable delicacies and introduced the cause and effect of the snack market. Finally, he raised his thoughts and talked about the stall economy, urban planning, food and beverage culture, and other more macro aspects.
On the way back, Zhang Yahui passed by a stall that sold cold noodles. He even specially roasted one for himself, which made Zhang Lixian praise it profusely.
He walked around and returned to the entrance.
Zhang Yahui took a stack of notebooks from the grocery store and gave them to Zhang Lixian, the cameraman, and the other television station colleagues as gifts.
"Thank you so much!"
"It's embarrassing to bring things every time I come to interview …"
"Anyway, thank you for accepting our interview!"
Zhang Lixian left reluctantly after confirming with the cameraman that all the material was recorded.
There were still many delicious snacks tempting her but she could eat them the next time she came.
They were in Jingzhou anyway and could come over at any time.
She had to edit this news as soon as possible!
Zhang Lixian had a feeling that this news would definitely cause a huge response like the previous report on Fish-Catching Take-Out and Boss Li's interview segment!
Zhang Yahui heaved a sigh of relief after sending Zhang Lixian and the cameraman off.
"Phew, fortunately, I didn't embarrass Boss Pei!"
