Huayu Chef

0171 Dynasty Fame Known Throughout the World

5:30 a.m. the next day.

The buzzing alarm woke Zhang Jinxuan up. He reached for his phone, turned off the alarm, and pressed the light switch, instantly illuminating the dark bedroom as if it were daytime.

Naza was sleeping soundly and did not react to changes in the light.

She is so tired.

He shouldered it all alone, hysterically processing the reborn's frenzied shock and burning rage.

Zhang Jinxuan didn't disturb her return to Lan. He got up quietly, picked up his clothes along the way, put his own on, and took Nazha's clothes back to her bedroom.

After washing up in the bathroom, Zhang Jinxuan came out feeling refreshed. He unplugged the charger, put his phone in his pocket, leaned down and gently kissed Nazha's forehead before quietly leaving.

At six in the morning, Beijing was beginning to awaken from its slumber, but it was much quieter than during the day. Most of the shops on both sides of the street were closed, and there were very few pedestrians.

Zhang Jinxuan drove to the Wild Kitchen in the Beijing Film Academy community. He felt relaxed and happy all the way, showing no signs of weakness or fatigue.

The entertainment industry is such a glamorous world, and Zhang Jinxuan, having tasted success last night, is even more determined to make it in the industry.

The Audi A6 was parked in a parking space near Wild Kitchen. Zhang Jinxuan got out of the car, locked the door with the key, put his hands in his pockets, walked quickly towards Wild Kitchen, lifted the roller shutter door, and went inside.

"Boss."

"Good morning, Little Tang."

"Boss."

Good morning, Sister Liu.

Zhang Jinxuan took off his coat, changed into his chef's uniform, and went to Ping Leng's worktable to watch Tang Qiwen and Sister Liu trim the toenails of chicken feet that were soaking in water.

"Xiao Tang, how many kilograms of chicken feet did Boss Chen send over?"

"150 jin (240 catties)"

"Has the pork belly arrived?"

"It's already been delivered."

"Is the pork bone broth simmering yet?"

"We've made it through."

"it is good."

Zhang Jinxuan put his coat away in the backyard, then came back to braise the duck.

At eight o'clock in the morning, Zhang Jinxuan, who was having breakfast, received a call from Nazha. He took the steamed buns and soy milk he had bought to the backyard to chat on the phone for a long time.

The silly beauty's voice was so soft and lazy that Zhang Jinxuan could imagine her lying lazily in bed just by listening to it.

"Senior, when did you leave?"

"Very early."

"Haha, you should say that's what movies have been saying for a long, long time."

That was a long, long time ago.

"Your voice is so magnetic, I want to hear you praise me in that voice."

"Our Nazha is exceptionally beautiful, incredibly sexy, and remarkably gentle; she's simply a rare gem, a treasure of the world."

Naza exclaimed joyfully, "Love you, baby! What are you doing now?"

"They make braised food in the shop."

"Is it really necessary to do this so early?"

"Hey, if we don't get started early, we won't have anything to sell today, and we won't make any money. Are you up yet?"

"Not yet."

"It's Monday today, you should be going to school, right? Get up quickly, or you'll be late."

Naza pouted pitifully and said, "Senior brother, I can't get up. I feel weak all over. We did it for too long last night, and the aftereffects are a bit severe."

"Is it my fault? It's because you always want it."

Naza's innocent giggles and suggestive words came from the speaker: "Senior brother is amazing, more vigorous than my ex-boyfriend, it feels so good to do it."

"Shall we continue tonight?"

"Doesn't my senior come during the day?"

"I work at the shop during the day and come to your place at night."

"Okay, I'm so sleepy my eyelids are drooping, I want to sleep a little longer. Senior, you're busy, see you tonight."

"Aren't you going to class?"

"Ask for leave."

"Wow, Nazha is amazing!"

"Haha, I'm not that great, my senior is the great one, mua love you, bye-bye~~"

"Bye-Bye."

After hanging up the phone, Zhang Jinxuan ate his breakfast in a few bites and went into the kitchen to oversee the various braised dishes.

We arrived late today, and the braised dishes were served a little later than usual, but Wild Kitchen still opened promptly at nine o'clock.

Zhang Jinxuan bet that business would be very bad in the morning.

As expected, no one came to visit even after the door was open for a while.

Zhang Jinxuan had anticipated this situation. On Mondays, students are in class and office workers are at work, so the sales of braised dishes would inevitably decrease. Therefore, he prepared the goods according to the sales volume of Friday, for fear of preparing too much and not being able to sell it all.

After that, a few customers came to buy braised food. Sister Liu and Tang Qiwen handled the business with ease, while Zhang Jinxuan focused on the cashier duties, sitting behind the cashier window playing on his phone.

From Saturday afternoon to today, the first episode of "Wild Kitchen: Peking Duck" has garnered 82 views on Youku, nearing one million. Views on Bilibili are slightly lower, at only 26. On Kuaishou, the short video has accumulated 51 views, with some trending memes showing signs of widespread dissemination.

Wild Kitchen's official Weibo account has 5400 followers, while Zhang Jinxuan's personal Weibo account has 12000 followers, showing an astonishing increase.

However, the drawbacks of lacking strong marketing and promotion have also become apparent. "Wild Kitchen" didn't have the explosive momentum of a hit show, nor did it have the potential to become a dark horse and immediately appear on Weibo's trending topics list. Relying solely on word-of-mouth for wider dissemination is far too slow in achieving mainstream success.

Just as Zhang Jinxuan was secretly considering whether to buy some marketing on Weibo and Youku, two slender and beautiful women walked into Wild Kitchen hand in hand.

One of them is Huang Mengying.

The other person wore sunglasses and a beige belted trench coat. Her long, straight, brownish-yellow hair was draped smoothly over her beautiful shoulders and back. Her powerful aura was mixed with a hint of indescribable worldliness.

"Senior Brother Zhang Jinxuan," Huang Mengying called out with a smile.

"Junior Sister Mengying is here?"

Zhang Jinxuan quickly stood up, smiling broadly as he went to greet her. His gaze swept over the woman beside her, and he said in surprise, "Senior Sister Yang Mi?"

Yang Mi took off her sunglasses, smiled and waved, and said politely, "Hello, Junior Brother Zhang Jinxuan. You are even more handsome in person than Mengying told me."

Zhang Jinxuan suppressed his surprise, glanced at the smiling Huang Mengying, and complimented Yang Mi, "Senior Sister Yang Mi is also very beautiful. The moment you and Junior Sister Mengying came in, our shop immediately felt brighter."

"You're quite good at complimenting people." Yang Mi looked Zhang Jinxuan up and down with great interest, raising her chin and saying, "Mengying and Xiaolonglong said that the braised dishes in your shop are delicious. Could you please give Mengying and me a serving, junior brother?"

"Who is Xiaolonglong?"

"Zhang Yunlong."

Zhang Jinxuan suppressed a laugh and said, "Senior sister, you're giving him too much credit. Isn't he just a little bug?"

Huang Mengying and Yang Mi both covered their mouths and laughed.

Zhang Yunlong's nickname is Mao Mao. His Weibo name ends with "mmc", and his fans are called "Caterpillar".

"You're so mean, but he's so cute. From now on, we'll call him Little Bug."

Huang Mengying said gloatingly, "Senior brother, you're finished. Zhang Yunlong will definitely come after you."

"It's alright, I'm not afraid of him." Zhang Jinxuan replied nonchalantly, then turned and instructed, "Xiao Tang, make two braised meat platters for Junior Sister Mengying and Senior Sister Yang Mi, and take a little of each kind."

"I'd like three servings." Yang Mi raised her hand and said to Zhang Jinxuan, "Junior Brother Zhang Jinxuan, it's my treat. Let's sit down and chat."

Zhang Jinxuan raised an eyebrow and said magnanimously, "Junior Sister Mengying and Senior Sister Yang Mi have come to my shop for a meal, how can I let you spend money? This meal is on me, ladies, please give me a chance?"

"Sure, might as well eat it."
