Chapter 241： The distress of the shop exploration team

For the lunch of Meng Shitong and the others in Fujinglou, they still couldn't fault the taste of the dishes, but they still felt a pain when they settled the accounts.

After lunch and returning to the studio, He Yaqian finally couldn't help but sigh: "A meal in Fujinglou is really too expensive."

Several other people in the studio also nodded in agreement.

Photographer A Fei made a more serious analysis: "In fact, the price is a lot more expensive compared with Su Ji, but we still have to consider the location of Fujing Building and the decoration of the overall interior and exterior of the scenic spot."

When Meng Shitong heard this, he also said: "Yes, from the location of Fujing Building, as well as the various interior and exterior decorations, the price is fairly reasonable."

He Yaqian reluctantly said: "Then you all said that, what else can I say? Anyway, it's not me who pays."

Meng Shitong suddenly laughed when he heard the words: "I didn't notice that classmate He Yaqian suddenly became so stingy?"

He Yaqian immediately argued with reason: "Why, this time, Ms. Meng said that we need to record vegetarian dishes, so surely we can't let us pay for it?"

Meng Shitong nodded: "Well, you really can't pay for it alone, so let's share it this time."

He Yaqian suddenly looked depressed: "Isn't it, Sister Meng, don't you get the reimbursement?"

Meng Shitong smiled and asked, "Hey, hey, you can't pay, do I have to pay?"

Everyone in the studio suddenly said that the money for this meal will be shared by everyone.

After all, the studio is still relatively small nowadays, and many things have just started.

Although some videos on the Internet have attracted their attention, they have also successfully gained the attention of some advertisers.

But for the time being, the studio's income is still unable to be completely equal to the usual expenses.

But for Meng Shitong and the others, this is considered to be a cause they worked together. Maybe it is not very good now, but everyone is still full of confidence in the future.

After talking about the prices, Meng Shitong asked everyone to talk about their evaluation of the dishes at Fujinglou.

This time photographer A Fei first made some evaluation.

"I think the dishes at Fujing Building really match their location and the layout of the interior and exterior decoration. In terms of taste, several dishes are really good to eat, but if compared with Chef Feng’s craftsmanship, there is still a gap. ."

After listening to this evaluation, Meng Shitong then asked: "Where do you think the gap lies? What are the specific differences in the dishes?"

He Yaqian didn't wait for A Fei to answer, she rushed to say, "I think there is a gap in every dish."

Meng Shitong stopped He Yaqian: "You wait a while and let A Fei finish talking."

A Fei said with a serious face: "First of all, we ordered their signature lion head. They don’t have the distinctive lion heads of Chef Feng, nor the four seasons lion heads. They only have three kinds of lion heads: braised, stewed and crab noodles. .

From this point alone, it is obvious that you will lose a lot to Chef Feng. Think about it, Chef Feng’s tofu catfish lion head? "

Just now, He Yaqian exclaimed: "Oh, that dish is really great, I also like that very much."

A Fei continued: "Then let's not talk about Chef Feng's innovation, just talk about the three lion heads they have."

For A Fei, the three types of lion heads in Fu Jing Lou are indeed not bad in taste, especially the taste of braised braised.

But the two kinds of lion heads, stew and crab noodles, made A Fei very dissatisfied.

"The stewed lion head is not like Chef Feng's. You can use your tongue without biting, and you can feel smudged. And have you noticed it? One of them is a bit cracked."

The people in the studio nodded when they heard it, and indeed the stewed lion head disappointed them a bit.

A Fei talked about crab noodle lion head: "As for crab noodle lion head, I don't think it is the right season now, so this dish itself should not be presented."

Meng Shitong asked strangely: "Why do you think you shouldn't have this dish?"

A Fei replied directly: "Because it is not the season for eating crabs, I feel that Fu Jing Lou puts this dish on the menu at this time, it is very forceful, just to show the strength of the big restaurant, I can make this dish."

He Yaqian agrees with this point: "Yes, I think so too, it seems that I just want to show that this is the signature, for fear that others don't know that they are the inheritance of this dish."

Meng Shitong thought about it and summed it up: "So, what do you mean is that Fujing Building is still too commercial and lacks the proper cultural heritage?"

After hearing this, several people in the studio almost said in unison: "Yes."

A Fei even praised Meng Shitong: "Sister, your summary is too good. That's how it feels. Fujinglou is an ordinary restaurant, even like an internet celebrity check-in place, rather than a representative of Huaicheng food. A restaurant with cultural heritage."

He Yaqian went on to say: "To be simple and straightforward, Fujinglou now looks like an uneducated upstart."

He Yaqian's metaphor is also recognized by everyone.

In fact, this can be regarded as a place where Fu Jing Building was criticized by some local elderly.

Huaicheng did invest a lot in Fujing Building at the beginning, and strived to build Fujing Building into a restaurant that represents Huaicheng's dining culture.

It's a pity that later in the business, the bosses were still too commercial and lacked in cultural heritage.

If a foreigner comes to Huaicheng, he will definitely be recommended to go to Fujing Tower, because it is indeed well-known in Huaicheng and it occupies a very good location in Huaicheng.

In addition, Fujinglou has indeed insisted on making local dishes over the years, especially the local morning tea tradition.

For foreign tourists, Fujing Building is a must-visit place.

But it was also because of attracting too many foreign tourists, the commercialization of Fujing Building was a bit too much. So in the overall atmosphere and cultural heritage, there is really too much missing.

This problem was naturally seen after Su Lanxin came back and took over Fujing Building.

So when she wanted to get the Su Ji old plaque, she had the idea to hang the Su Ji old plaque on the Fujing building.

Of course, for Su Lanxin now, she must change her plan. Because of Feng Yifan's appearance, all her plans were disrupted.

After Meng Shitong listened to everyone's speech, everyone in the studio had a discussion.

She still asked everyone: "Then everyone thinks, do we still want to make the video of Fujinglou? And how do we make this video? What kind of views and attitudes should be presented?"

He Yaqian immediately said: "Of course it is to tell the truth, and then let everyone compare with Su Ji."

This time ALFY had a different opinion: "I don't think it is good, because if this is the case, our views may be a little more subjective, and there should not be too many of our subjective evaluations."

He Yaqian asked strangely: "Hey hey hey, you said the most just now, do you still say that we are too subjective?"

A Fei quickly admitted his mistake: "No, no, no, I'm not talking about you, but I was too subjective just now."

Meng Shitong didn’t wait for He Yaqian to continue speaking, and was the first to speak: “I think A Fei is right. We really can’t be too subjective. If you don’t compare with Chef Feng, you will think that the dishes at Fujinglou are Is it a problem?"

After listening to these words, everyone in the studio also calmed down, and they all said that they did not feel that there was a problem.

In fact, Fujing Building was purchased by Su Liancheng, and after the chef handed over to Tan Xueli to take charge, the quality of the dishes did improve a lot.

If it weren't for Feng Yifan in Su Ji, who left a deep impression on Meng Shitong and the others, they would really not think that there is any problem with the current dishes of Fujinglou, and they would even be surprised.

Seeing that everyone agrees, Meng Shitong continued: "So, I agree with A Fei's opinion. Let's be more objective and not express the comparison with Su Ji. We will simply make a shop-visiting video."

He Yaqian thought for a while and suddenly asked, "But if this is the case, would it be unfair to Su Ji?"

A Fei asked strangely: "What does this have to do with Su Ji? How can it be unfair to Su Ji?"

He Yaqian curled her lips and said: "Because Su Ji and Fu Jing Lou are in the same city, if Su Ji has some dishes in Fu Jing Lou, and we don't compare the taste, wouldn't it be equivalent to helping Fu Jing Lou to promote it?"

This is really something that Meng Shitong and A Fei hadn't thought of before.

When He Yaqian was reminded, the two of them thought about it carefully, and it seemed that it was indeed a bit unfair.

Because the environment in which Su Ji is located is simply incomparable with Fu Jing Building.

If it is the same two shop exploring videos, when most of the dishes in the two shops are the same, and there is no obvious difference in taste, then tourists who come to Huaicheng will inevitably choose Fujinglou.

After all, Fujing Building has a convenient location, and naturally has the advantage of a very good scenic spot.

Su Ji is just a small restaurant on an old street.

After another period of contemplation, Meng Shitong said, "Then, can we do this? Don’t say too much, just point out a little bit of price, and some comparisons in geographical location, a little bit of comparison in taste, and let everyone choose freely. ."

A Fei thought for a while and said, "Well, I think it's okay. Don't mention it, just say a little bit of comparison, and the price of Fujing Building should still discourage many people."

The final strategy is finalized, and everyone still retains the attitude of exploring stores as objectively as possible.

But when A Fei and the others went in to edit, Meng Shitong also took the time to call Feng Yifan in private.

Feng Yifan answered the phone and couldn't help laughing after listening to Meng Shitong's narration.

"Are you worried too much? Don't you do that kind of food shop visit video? How to visit the shop, what shop to go to, is your freedom, you can express your feelings intuitively, it is not necessary for you to visit the shop ?"

Feng Yifan actually didn't expect that Meng Shitong actually called for his own opinions because of visiting Fujing Building.

"How do you feel? Just say it in your video. There is nothing wrong with it, right?

If for the sake of our Su Ji, you can't express your feelings about visiting Fujinglou, wouldn't you be very irresponsible to those netizens who like you? "

Meng Shitong did not expect that Feng Yifan would have such an enlightened attitude towards this matter.

Especially when Feng Yifan said so, Meng Shitong suddenly felt that they were indeed a little too nervous.

Perhaps it was because I knew some of the problems of the boss behind Su Ji and Fu Jing Lou.

Maybe he will favor Su Ji in his heart, so he always thinks about favoring Su Ji instead of letting Su Ji suffer.

But in fact, one of their shop-visiting videos will not bring as much influence as imagined.

The most important thing is that Su Ji and Fu Jing Lou are not a kind of restaurant at all.

Su Ji is the kind of boutique private kitchen in the city.

Fujing Building is a large restaurant in the scenic spot.

These two are really not comparable, even if the dishes are similar, but if they are really compared, they will definitely feel that Su Ji and other boutique private chefs are more authentic.

This is not the era of information obscurity. Who wouldn't go online to find out?

Seeing Meng Shitong's silence, Feng Yifan finally said, "In fact, I really appreciate you thinking about Su Ji, but Su Ji has its own business method. We will not be affected by others, so you really don't have to worry about this.

As for your video about Fujinglou's shop exploration, I think you just do it truthfully, and there is nothing wrong with promoting our local specialty restaurant . "

At this moment, after listening to Feng Yifan's words, Meng Shitong suddenly realized what a real master is.

At this moment, Meng Shitong felt that a real master should be like Feng Yifan, with his own tolerance and his own rules, and would not change what he insisted on because of others.

Thinking of this, Meng Shitong said: "Good Chef Feng, I understand. Thank you for clearing my confusion."

Feng Yifan smiled and said, "Well, I also wish you all, I hope you can do better and better."

After hanging up the phone, Meng Shitong immediately went to the editing room and relayed some of Feng Yifan's words, and the subsequent editing went smoothly.

Anyway, everyone has one thing to say. Where is the good place? What's bad and what's bad?

The evaluation of Fujinglou was relatively objective, and he did not deliberately belittle Fujinglou because of his relationship with Su Ji and Feng Yifan.

Feng Yifan hung up the phone and returned to the shade of the tree. The three little girls immediately surrounded him. Ever since they changed their slogan to "Papa Feng", the three girls really clung to Papa Feng, and Yang Zhiyi was really jealous.

Feng Yifan hugged the three girls, and then asked everyone, "Should we go back? It's getting late, and the children should be able to sleep for a while."

Everyone looked at the time, and Su Ruoxi also said, "Or go back, or wait for Grandpa Ruo Ruo to bring the table, there is no one in Su Ji."

Hearing Su Ruoxi's words, everyone felt that they should go back. After all, Su Ji's table change was considered a major event.

After that, the group continued to walk back along the lakeside trail.

Coincidentally, when the group returned to the front of the Fujing Building, they happened to meet Su Lanxin who had come to the Fujing Building.
