Chapter 103 Fan Jinwu is criticized
Lin Chaoming stood up and looked at Fan Jinwu with dissatisfaction.
"Fan Jinwu, do you know what others are saying now? They are saying that our Commerce Bureau is putting on airs. It's bad enough that the food at Fengze Garden is getting worse and worse, but they are not even allowed to hire a chef to help entertain the guests. This is destroying the prosperity of business and the development of various industries!"
Fan Jinwu stood there with a confused look on his face.
He thought he was already good at accusing others, but he didn't expect that Lin Chaoming was more professional than him in this area.
The restaurant's traffic has dropped a lot recently, but we have set a rule that no one is allowed to go out for private work during working hours, so there should be no problem with it. How can it be considered disrupting business development? How can it be considered putting on airs?
While I was in a daze, I heard Lin Chaoming say,
"Jinwu, as the saying goes, there is always a teacher among three people. There is also a saying that there is a sequence in learning and there is specialization in skills. You have just started working for a short time. In our Commercial Bureau, everyone takes good care of you, but it is different in the hotel!"
“What is the most important thing when opening a business?”
“Of course it’s the customer!”
"As long as customers have needs, we should meet them."
"If you don't know how to run a restaurant, you should ask other chefs for advice instead of sticking to the old rules and following the old ones!"
As a worker representative of Fengze Garden, Lin Chaoming had a say in this regard.
Although times have changed, the unique dining culture of Old Beijing cannot be changed. A restaurant is a restaurant and cannot be run in the same top-down and top-down working style as the Commercial Bureau.
He looked at Fan Jinwu who was like a wooden man, and couldn't help but give him some advice.
"We have just stabilized, and all industries need to develop. In my opinion, it is not a bad idea to let chefs cook for these leaders and bosses."
"These leaders and bosses invite Fengzeyuan's chefs to cook for them. This is a recognition of Fengzeyuan, and it is also a promotion for Fengzeyuan. Fengzeyuan has a good reputation, so why worry that no one will come to eat there?"
Fan Jinwu was overwhelmed. He really didn't expect that Lin Chaoming would get so angry.
Although he felt that he had done nothing wrong, since his leader had said so, he naturally had to accept the criticism.
"Yes, yes, yes, leader, I was wrong!"
Fan Jinwu looked embarrassed.
"Please rest assured, I will deal with these issues when I return and build a good reputation for Fengze Garden!"
……
……
Fengze Garden.
After returning from the Commercial Bureau, Fan Jinwu immediately gathered all the employees of Fengze Garden.
However, compared to his previous seriousness, he looked particularly humble at this moment.
"Manager Fan, according to regulations, it's time to get off work now. Should we go home?"
Master Zhao couldn't help but speak in Yin and Yang terms.
"Sorry, sorry, this matter is really too important. I'm sorry to take up some of your time!"
Fan Jinwu smiled helplessly. After hearing what Master Zhao said, he was too lazy to talk nonsense and said directly,
"I have two announcements today."
"The first one..."
At this point, Fan Jinwu looked directly at Zhao Youliang, who was in charge of purchasing.
"Zhao Youliang, after observing for some time, I think that the ingredients we purchased recently might not be very good, so I have decided that starting today, you will still follow the original purchase plan."
Fan Jinwu is not stupid.
If one or two people are dissatisfied with the food at Fengzeyuan, it can be said to be a rare phenomenon.
But in the past month, the number of people visiting Fengzeyuan has dropped significantly, and the reputation is not very good. Obviously, it is not the customers' fault. But the chefs in the kitchen are skilled. After thinking about it, the only variable seems to be the ingredients.
Although he didn't understand much, Fengzeyuan's business was indeed good before it changed its food suppliers.
Now that Lin Chaoming has spoken, he naturally dares not ignore this issue.
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was shocked.
Everyone knows that on the first day Fan Jinwu took office, he started with Zhao Youliang.
Now, the first sentence actually cancelled the previous regulations and delegated the purchasing authority to Zhao Youliang again.
It seems that the recent situation in Fengze Garden has made Fan Jinwu unbearable!
Zhao Youliang crossed his arms over his chest and said in a veiled way,
"Manager Fan, look at what you're saying. We're purchasing ingredients from state-owned stores now, so what's the problem? Besides, if we follow the original plan, the cost will increase a lot!"
Zhao Youliang said this, but he was secretly happy in his heart.
He has been in charge of purchasing for so many years, and he not only purchases from He Daqing, but also buys from wherever is new. Of course, some connections also play a role in this.
He was embarrassed recently because he ordered all the ingredients from state-owned stores.
And now, Fan Jinwu finally handed the purchasing rights back to him.
It’s been a month, Fan Jinwu, do you know how I managed to get through this month?
"As long as sales are good, cost is not a problem!"
Fan Jinwu smiled awkwardly and said,
"You get what you pay for. Expensive products have their reasons. Just follow your original purchasing plan. Only by satisfying your customers can you succeed!"
Zhao Youliang snorted and didn't respond, but he was extremely happy in his heart.
As a purchasing agent, I finally have some power!
Amid the discussion among the crowd, Fan Jinwu continued with a smile,
"The second thing is the problem of chefs cooking for people at their homes."
Fan Jin Wu Dao,
"I think this matter can be adjusted. As long as it does not affect the normal operation of our restaurant, if the customer requests it, our Fengzeyuan chef can provide door-to-door cooking services!"
There was no way. Even if he didn't take those business owners seriously, if the public leaders needed him to cook, Fan Jinwu would not dare to refuse even if he had ten heads.
Now that Lin Chaoming has spoken, Fan Jinwu must implement it.
As soon as these words were spoken, all the cooks in the kitchen smiled.
After enduring for so many days, Manager Fan Jinwu finally got it.
When you invite people to dinner, isn't it all about social etiquette? If you, Fengzeyuan, don't give face to these bosses and leaders, why should they take care of your Fengzeyuan's business when they have problems in the future?
At the same time, he secretly admired He Daqing in his heart. He Daqing had predicted all of this.
"Okay. Now that we've discussed both matters, let's follow this rule from tomorrow on. Let's all go!"
Fan Jinwu waved his hand, ready to disband the meeting.
However, at this moment, a voice suddenly came from the crowd.
"Manager Fan, I think this may not be very effective!"
Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw that the person who spoke was none other than He Daqing, the number one man in the kitchen!
At this time, He Daqing crossed his arms and looked calm. He looked at Fan Jinwu and said in a deep voice,
"Manager Fan, you don't know that in the past ten days, we have had to refuse many invitations from bosses and leaders because of your rules. Even if we restore the original rules now, these old customers have been offended, and they may not be willing to invite us to cook for them again!"
