Chapter 6 Leo Moyer is injured.
Megan Pham took Clark Greer to The Modern. She had already prepared all the ingredients in advance. Next, she waited for Clark Greer to do his best.
Devin Ellison looked at this young man who was too foreign. As soon as he took off his coat, his whole big flower arm was exposed outside. No matter how he looked at it, it did not match the style of the five words "century-old brand".
"Megan, is he all right?" Devin Ellison couldn't help but question.
“Mr. Ellison, don't worry. You'll see if he can do it later.
Megan Pham has faith in Clark Greer. Clark Greer was only 20 years old when he went abroad, but at that time, he was already the top Chinese cooking technician in Portland. He was good at a wide range of cuisines. With his superb skills, he won the gold medal in the international cooking competition in France, and then went abroad for further study. In recent years, he has been working as a chef in a five-star hotel. Experience and vision are far higher than those of chefs of the same age.
Clark Greer's dishes take about 15 minutes. Each dish, fried, steamed or fried, retains the original flavor of the ingredients as much as possible. The combination of different ingredients is always just right to create a wonderful spark on the tip of the tongue.
The aroma and flavor are there, and the color is not inferior at all. Clark Greer has studied Chinese painting for several years, and the presentation of each of his dishes has a very artistic conception of Chinese painting. Moreover, before each dish was served, he would write a business card for the dish with a brush in his hand.
"Xiaolou Lianyuan", "Sunset Red Rain", "Fine Clouds and Bright Moon".. The names of these dishes could not be better matched with the century-old restaurant.
Devin Ellison and a group of veteran chefs taste the dishes as they are served.
"Well, delicious, delicious, delicious!"
"So much for the eight precious jade food!"
Isn't this just an ordinary radish? Why does this taste so special? Where on earth did this boy learn his craft? It's amazing!
Everyone was impressed by Clark Greer's cooking.
Devin Ellison's attitude is also a 180 degree turn, "Megan, this little Yin really has two brushes, with him in charge, The Modern's return to the altar is just around the corner."
Megan Pham looked at Clark Greer, who was busy in the kitchen, and shook her head, "It's not enough to have him. Clark Greer has been abroad all the time, and his popularity in China has not yet been established. Customers may not be willing to support him just by his name. Therefore, we still need to do a good job in marketing."
"You mean?"
“Greyson HensonMr. Does Ellison know?
"I know that Greyson Henson, now a very popular food recommendation officer on social platforms, has to recommend restaurants and restaurants that are overcrowded every day, and the call machines are on strike." Devin Ellison looks at Megan Pham. "You want to go to this Greyson Henson for The Modern?"
"Yes."
"But I've heard that it costs six figures just to see Greyson Henson, and he doesn't advertise easily for businesses. If he takes an advertisement, the advertising fee will be more than six figures." Devin Ellison is always thinking about The Modern's tight budget.
“Mr. Ellison, reluctant to give up the child, can not trap the wolf. If he is really willing to comment on The Modern, do you still worry that the advertising fee will not be earned back? "The big question now is whether we can meet Greyson Henson and conquer his taste buds with our new dishes," said Megan Pham, who was emboldened by Leo Moyer's investment.
Okay, I'll take care of contacting Greyson Henson. You, Mr. Ellison has been engaged in catering for so many years, and he still has some connections. Devin Ellison now has great faith in Megan Pham. He feels that his old ideas are not keeping up with the times. Megan Pham is the leader of the times. She can lead The Modern to a better future.
Thank you, Mr. Ellison。”

Three days later, Devin Ellison successfully contacted Greyson Henson's studio, and the staff of the other party said that Mr. Chen. Henson happens to be in Portland these days, so you can see him.
Megan Pham immediately asked Clark Greer to prepare three dishes, and they went to Greyson Henson's house together. Unexpectedly, Krew Pham and Joy Pham were also there.
In Greyson Henson's banquet room, Krew Pham and Joy Pham were waiting with their food boxes. When Joy Pham saw Megan Pham and them, she swaggered and said, "Megan Pham, you really won't die until you reach the Yellow River.". The Modern is like this now. You don't save money, but you dare to come to Mr. Henson here, can you afford the sky-high advertising fees?
Megan Pham smiled coldly. "If you can afford it, I can certainly afford it."
"It's different to marry a rich man." Krew Pham walked up to Megan Pham and lovingly patted her on the shoulder. "But Megan, you're married to the Moyer family, and now you're running around looking for a way out for The Modern. It seems that your vegetative husband really can't help you." When my uncle sent you to the Moyer family, he hoped that you could be a rich and idle person without touching the spring water.
"Thanks for uncle's kindness, but I can't be idle. I like to toss about by myself, and I'm not used to lying flat on others.". Unlike my uncle, who used to rely on my father and now relies on copying The Modern to start a business, I'm not used to your unearned life.
"Who did you say plagiarized."
Joy Pham is throwing herself at Megan Pham, and Greyson Henson is coming down from the second floor.
"Why is it so noisy?" Greyson Henson, dressed in a dark Chinese tunic suit, looked a few years older than Krew Pham. "Are you all here for the tasting today?"
"Yes!" Joy Pham answered first, "Mr.". Henson, we're from the new The View Restaurant. We got in line first. Please try our three dishes first.
The View Restaurant is similar to The Modern in that it has a big advantage to eat first.
Joy Pham said, putting The View Restaurant's three dishes in front of Greyson Henson. Megan Pham did not introduce herself or compete, but silently put The Modern's three dishes behind The View Restaurant.
Greyson Henson took the chopsticks prepared by his assistant and tried three dishes from The View Restaurant. He only ate one chopstick for each dish. After trying three dishes, his expression did not change much.
Joy Pham is a little nervous, but Krew Pham is an old man. He has seen Greyson Henson try it with his own eyes. No matter how amazing the food he eats, the old man has an expression.
Greyson Henson walked over to The Modern's food box and frowned as he tried his first course.
Seeing this, Joy Pham almost laughed out loud. Many of The Modern's veteran craftsmen had been hired by her to The View Restaurant. Megan Pham's young and flashy man did not know where to find it. How bad the cooking was. To make Greyson Henson look like that on the first chopstick.
Greyson Henson immediately tried the second and third courses, then turned to Megan Pham. "Which restaurant are you from?"
Megan Pham, "The Modern."
Krew Pham had a bad instinct. The View Restaurant volunteered its name, while The Modern was asked by Greyson Henson, and the difference between the two was immediately apparent.
"Who cooked this dish?" Greyson Henson continued.
Clark Greer stood up, "I did it."
What is your name?
“Clark Greer。”
"Clark Greer, it's surnamed Greer.." Greyson Henson muttered to himself and looked at Clark Greer again. "Young man, do you know the state dinner master Hailey Holt?"? "
Clark Greer shook his head. "No."
"Really don't know?"
"I don't know." Clark Greer has never heard of a state dinner master.
"Then how come your craft is so similar to Hailey Holt's?" Greyson Henson felt strange and couldn't help eating another chopstick. "It's almost like it.". You Where did you learn this craft? Where is your master?
Clark Greer glanced at Megan Pham, his master, who was far away and close at hand.
Yes, Clark Greer's cooking was taught by Megan Pham, but his little chef told him from the beginning not to say anything about her teaching him cooking.
"I am self-taught." Clark Greer grinned like a chicken thief.
Greyson Henson pondered for a moment, then turned to his assistant and said, "The Modern's promotion is coming up, free of charge."
"No.." No charge? The assistant thought he had misheard.
"Yes, there is no charge."
Everyone in the room looked at each other, and Joy Pham and Krew Pham's faces were almost green.
“Mr. Henson, what about The View Restaurant? How do our dishes taste?
*
"Ordinary, no merit, no fault." Greyson Henson.
"Ordinary?" Joy Pham ran after Greyson Henson. "How could it be normal?"? We are the taste of a century-old brand.
"A century-old brand?" Greyson Henson frowned. "Didn't you just say you were new?"
"I.." Joy Pham choked. "I mean, a lot of our chefs are from century-old restaurants."
"Commonly known as poaching." Clark Greer repair knife.
"What poaching?" Joy Pham snapped back, "Water goes down, people go up, they think The View Restaurant has a better future, and they all choose to come to The View Restaurant."
"All right." Greyson Henson isn't interested in their feud. He's interested in Clark Greer. "Clark, do you have time to go up for tea?"? Talk about this cooperation and make a friend to chat.
Of course, Mr. Henson。”
Greyson Henson made a "please" gesture to Clark Greer, but did not invite Megan Pham. Megan Pham didn't care. To approve of Clark Greer was to approve of her.
They two went up to the second floor.
Megan Pham was about to go to the car to wait for someone when Krew Pham stopped her. "Megan Pham, I think you are getting bolder and bolder. In order to turn over, you even dare to touch Hailey Holt. Do you know who she is?"
Krew Pham has also heard of the name of Hailey Holt, the master of state banquets. It is said that her cooking skills are amazing. She is good at all kinds of Eight Famous Cuisines and has created many unique secret recipes. When she was young, she served many times as the main menu designer and cook for national leaders to entertain Chinese and foreign dignitaries. After retirement, she returned to Texas, where dignitaries and Jianghu bigwigs lined up to eat her dishes. Therefore, she has a wide network of contacts, which can be said to be black and white.
But Hailey Holt keeps a low profile and doesn't like to be interviewed by the media. She often uses the phrase "chefs should hide behind the stove, just like the dishes I cook, and don't need to know me." So there are no pictures of Hailey Holt on the Internet, even people who have eaten her dishes. Few have actually met Hailey Holt in person.
"Did Uncle Rub Inertia with The Modern?"? It looks like everyone is rubbing. I'm sorry, but we don't.
"Don't be complacent.". Even if The Modern gets Greyson Henson's rating, it may not be able to turn over.
"Well, let's wait and see."
Megan Pham said and left. Krew Pham stayed where she was and turned to stare at her daughter.
"Look at you. Smell Megan Pham and you have to come with her without any preparation. Is it a waste of money and a shame now?" Krew Pham was a little angry. "You haven't been as good as Megan Pham since you were a child, and you still are."
"Dad!"
Joy Pham is mad. Why does she always have to be compared to Megan Pham? And you'll never beat her!
"Say you want you to make progress, otherwise, you will always be trampled under Megan Pham's feet!"
"Under your feet?"? She is now married to a vegetable, this life is over, and I, I have plenty of opportunities to turn over!
"Turn over?"? With your Conner Dorsey? Even if Leo Moyer is a vegetable, a lean camel is bigger than a horse. If you really want to turn over, break up as soon as possible, and I'll find you a better family.
"But Conner Dorsey really treats me?"
Krew Pham has always looked down on the Dorsey family's little business, but Joy Pham and Conner Dorsey, who have been dating on campus for almost six years, are really going to get married, and father and daughter are fighting a lot about it.
"Really worth a fart, you will know sooner or later, in this world, money is better than anything."
Joy Pham bit her lip. Did she really want to break up with Conner Dorsey?
No, she doesn't want to.

Megan Pham waited in the car for an hour or so before Clark Greer came down.
"Have you talked about the promotion?" Megan Pham asked.
"It's settled." Clark Greer rubbed his temple, a little tired. "The old man didn't know what was going on. He kept pulling me to ask the Hailey HoltHailey Holt. I told him I didn't know who Hailey Holt was."
"Just talk about it and we'll go back."
Megan Pham said and started the car.
Clark Greer glanced at her. "Megan Pham, do you know who Hailey Holt is?"
"I don't know."
"Then why don't you let me tell people that you taught me how to cook?"
"With you, don't you like to set up self-taught talented chefs everywhere?"
"Well!" Clark Greer leaned into the passenger seat. "It's impossible to get anything out of you. I give up. I give up."
Megan Pham smiled. Everyone has a past they don't want to talk about, and so does she.
She knew that Clark Greer understood her.
A week later, Greyson Henson posted a video on his social media platform, in which he personally went to The Modern to punch in, and a table of delicious new products was placed on the table in a very elegant posture. Henson is also very conscientious. He comments while eating, and thoroughly analyses the ingredients and taste of each dish.
At the end of the video, he took a photo with chef Clark Greer.
As soon as this video came out, The Modern's ten new products, together with the new chef, instantly attracted the attention of the public.
"These dishes look very appetizing and arranged."
"Punch in on the weekend."
"Is the chef a little too handsome for a crooked building?"
"Think the chef is handsome + 1, is the chef industry so curly now?"
"In three minutes, I want all the contact information of this handsome chef."
“……”
In this way, Clark Greer's new product became popular, and Clark Greer himself became popular. He not only harvested a wave of career fans, but also a wave of face fans.
Over the weekend, the turnover of The Modern's headquarters and branches hit a new high, and the proportion of post-90s and post-00s customers also hit a new high, and this wave of heat lasted for nearly a month without receding.
The Modern finally turned a profit, and Megan Pham felt a sense of relief as she looked at the extra money on her books. It wasn't much, but it was a good start. She could finally go home and get a good night's sleep.
Leo Moyer seems to be very busy these days, and often the dragon can't see the end.
Megan Pham came home and took a shower. She sat on the bed and read a magazine to relax. After a while, there was a noise from the back room. Megan Pham turned her head and saw Leo Moyer come into the room. His white shirt was covered with blood.
"You're hurt!" Megan Pham's whole body was tense.
Leo Moyer's face was pale, but he calmly gave her a "shush" gesture.
Megan Pham immediately ran to him, supported him, and asked softly, "Where is the injury?"? Is it serious?
"Shoulder, just a skin injury." He said it lightly.
Megan Pham took a look at Leo Moyer's wound. There was blood oozing out of his wound. There was a smell of blood in the air. She fought back the dizziness and helped him to the bedside. "I'll go to Doc.". Call Hull.
"He's not here today."
