Chapter 444 Accepting the Gift of Shares(1/2)
Time always slips away inadvertently. It is already June 16th in a blink of an eye, and there are less than 4 days left before the final closure of the old street.
At the intersections of both ends of the old street, a lot of building materials and various metal iron plates were piled up, which all indicate that the major project of the reconstruction of the ancient street is about to begin.
Today, the personnel from the reconstruction department came here specially to take some shop owners on the old street to the planned temporary stalls.
It just so happened that Feng Ruoruo was resting in kindergarten. The little girl got up early and went to the farmers' market to buy vegetables with her father. When she came back, she made breakfast with her father and then had breakfast with her family. Now she would push her grandpa to a temporary stall with her parents and grandma.
Before leaving the house, Feng Ruoruo kept asking next to his father: "Dad, can't we do business in grandpa's restaurant in the future?"
Feng Yifan responded to his daughter with a smile: "Of course not. After the repair outside is completed, our restaurant will be renovated. We will come back and continue to run our grandfather's restaurant. At that time, grandfather's restaurant business will definitely be better and more customers will come..."
Feng Ruoruo nodded and said, "Dad, can I still invite Xixi and Feifei to come?"
Feng Yifan continued to smile and said, "Of course it's OK. At that time, you and Xixi, Feifei will continue to pass the menu to your father. Dad needs you three."
When the girl heard her father say she needed them to pass the menu, she was very happy: "Hehehe, Ruoru knows that parents, grandpa, grandpa and grandma, can't live without Ruoru, and Ruoru can't live without you, so we are a family."
Feng Yifan really found this to be interesting to his daughter.
He thought about it carefully and nodded in agreement: "Well, Ruoruo is right. We are a family, so we all need each other."
Su Ruoxi came over and tidied up her daughter's clothes.
Feng Ruoruo was tidied up by his mother, and the little girl immediately asked: "Mom, I need you, do you need Ruoru?"
Hearing his daughter's words, Su Ruoxi smiled and pinched her daughter's little face: "Is it necessary? Mom needs Ruo Ruo the most."
Feng Ruoruo was very happy? He hugged his mother and said, "Ruoruo also needs his mother."
Then, the little girl hugged her grandmother and asked, "Grandma? Do you need Ruoru?"
Grandma naturally responded with a smile: "Need? Of course, Grandma needs Ruruo the most."
Feng Ruoru responded with a smile: "Ruoru also needs grandma's."
Finally, the little girl asked her grandfather: "Grandpa, grandpa? Do you need Ruoru?"
Grandpa nodded: "Need."
Feng Ruoruo hugged his grandfather and said, "Ruoruo also needs his grandfather's."
After asking around, the little girl clapped her hands and cheered, "Oh yeah? Our family all need each other."
Hearing the little girl’s cheers? Seeing Feng Ruoruo’s happy look, the whole family was full of smiles. At this moment, everyone felt that such a family was very happy.
When they were about to go out, two figures appeared at Su Ji's door, Su Liancheng and Mei Ru.
Seeing two people appear? Feng Yifan asked with a smile: "Mr. Su and Mei always come here to inspect the progress of our ancient street renovation?"
Su Liancheng smiled when he heard this and greeted Su Liancheng first: "Hello uncle, are your health better now?"
Su Jinrong nodded: "Well, it's much better."
Su Liancheng then said, "Then you must pay more attention to rest. If you have any needs? You can contact me or Meiru at any time. I will contact you a doctor in a few days. Come and check your health and see how you are in rehabilitation."
Su Jinrong waved his hand: "Actually? No need to worry."
Su Liancheng insisted: "If you need it, please don't be polite, uncle."
Then Su Liancheng greeted Lu Cuiling and Su Ruoxi separately? Finally, he bent down and smiled to greet Feng Ruoruo: "Hello Ruoruo? Do you still remember your uncle?"
Feng Ruoruo looked at the other party? Then he said, "Hello uncle."
Seeing that the little girl was willing to call herself, Su Liancheng was also very happy.
Mei Ru also greeted everyone separately. Compared to Su Liancheng's intimacy, Mei Ru seemed relatively calm.
After the greetings between the two parties, Feng Yifan also asked directly: "You two bosses are here together. Are there any things to come to us?"
When asked directly like this, Meiru didn't hide it and also spoke directly to explain the purpose of the visit.
"Chef Feng, the ancient street is about to be closed and renovated. I believe you will be relatively leisurely in the next period of time, so we want you to serve as the kitchen consultant of Fujinglou. Please help us upgrade the dishes in Fujinglou."
After hearing Mei Ru explain her purpose directly, Feng Yifan was very direct: "How much are you planning to spend to invite me over?"
Meiru is still very direct: "We are going to give you half of the profits of Fujinglou."
Feng Yifan laughed when he heard this: "It's really a big deal, but he actually gave me half of it?"
Su Liancheng continued: "Brother-in-law, you actually know that my dad and Tan Xueli have left. Now the kitchen of Fujinglou is in a situation where there are no leaders, so we really need you to help us.
In addition, before my mother left, she also signed a share gift letter and gave 30% of the company's shares to Ruoxi. So now you are also considered the company's major shareholders. We really hope that you can help Fujinglou and the company overcome this difficulty."
Su Ruoxi was a little surprised when she heard this: "Give me 30% of the shares of your company?"
Mei Ru took out the confirmation letter of the gift of shares from her bag: "This is the gift of shares. You can take a look now. It has the signature of President Su, and the fairness of the notary office, as well as the certification of legal institutions at home and abroad."
Seeing such a gift book, Su Ruoxi wanted to refuse it directly.
But Feng Yifan reached out to take it and handed it to his wife: "Since it's my aunt's wish, we will accept it. We can't use it, so it's okay to give it to Ruruo in the future."
Su Ruoxi was a little surprised and hesitant when she heard her husband's words.
Lu Cuiling immediately muttered a few words in her daughter-in-law's ear: "Hold it, we have their shares in our hands, and they will not be able to make up Su Ji in the future."
After being told by her mother-in-law, Su Ruoxi felt that it seemed to make sense, so she took it away.
After seeing his wife accepting the gift book, Feng Yifan smiled and said, "Okay, we have accepted the gift shares, and we will not participate in other matters."
Su Liancheng and Mei Ru were stunned when they heard this.
Mei Ru then looked a little bad, obviously feeling that she seemed to have been fooled by Feng Yifan.
Su Liancheng smiled bitterly and said, "Brother-in-law, Chef Feng, don't do this. Think about it, you have shares in the company now. If the company cannot operate, your dividends will also be reduced."
Feng Yifan looked at Su Liancheng and Mei Ru and said, "We are just shareholders who hold shares, not business and decision-makers. If you lose money, then you are responsible to our shareholders. If you two are not good, can our shareholders replace them?"
These words made Su Liancheng speechless.
Although Mei Ru was a little angry, she had no way to refute it.
Because Feng Yifan is talking about the facts, the share gift letter itself is a gift of shares, and there are no medical terms, and as a shareholder, he does have the right to change the operator.
There was a little stalemate between the two sides at the door.
Finally, Su Jinrong said, "Okay, Yifan, go."
Su Jinrong's words made Su Liancheng feel as if he had seen the dawn in an instant. He was excited to go forward and held his uncle's hand: "I'm really thankful for my uncle. My parents have left. Now we really need Yifan to help us, otherwise it will be difficult for us to open up the market in China."
Listening to Su Liancheng's words, Feng Yifan smiled and said, "It's very easy for you to open up the market in China. You only need to use your previous strategy, use the 'buy, buy, buy, buy, and promote it, and it is easy to seize the mid-to-high-end market of domestic catering."
After hearing Feng Yifan's words, Mei Ru immediately said: "Chef Feng, you are right. We can indeed use our company's brand to seize the domestic mid-to-high-end market in that way, but that is not the development route we hope for."
Feng Yifan looked at Mei Ru and could see Su Lanxin's shadow from her.
But from another point of view, Mei Ru is different from Su Lanxin, so she obviously pays more attention to strategy.
After thinking about it, Feng Yifan asked: "So, do you want to support the recovery of domestic cuisine? Do you want to let domestic cuisine enter the mid-to-high-end market, rather than let Western catering monopoly?"
After hearing this, Mei Ru nodded: "Yes, we hope to revive Chinese cuisine, rather than letting the mid-to-high-end catering market be controlled by Western catering. We should allow our domestic people to eat our own dishes and understand our own food culture."
I have to say that Mei Ru's words are really exaggerating.
Su Jinrong was even a little excited when he heard this and wanted to participate in this revival process.
Feng Yifan was relatively calm: "Your idea is very good, but the difficulties you are facing are also very obvious. That is, the domestic high-end catering market has formed a fixed understanding. Those who can afford high-end dishes believe that Western catering is more high-end and up-to-date."
Su Liancheng said at this time: "But the fact is not that way. Our dishes can also be made very exquisitely, and the teachers can make very high-end. Our own dishes have more diverse flavors and can make many dishes of different flavors. We will not lose to foreigners."
After hearing Su Liancheng's words, Feng Yifan suddenly smiled and said, "In fact, it's really strange. It's obvious that Chinese food is a very high-end cooking in some places abroad, but it's really ridiculous that some people despise it outside the high-end in China."
Meiru continued, “Yes, because of this, we need to change.”
Then she continued: "Chef Feng, I know that you have won five stars abroad, and four of them have won because you used Chinese-style cooking and won unanimous praise. Even your two dishes have become the main dish of a three-star restaurant.
So don’t you really want to prove yourself again in China? Let everyone understand that our own food culture is very profound, and our own food can also be very high-end."
Su Jinrong spoke again: "Yifan, go do it."
Hearing his father-in-law's words, Feng Yifan lowered his head and looked at his father-in-law, then raised his head to look at his wife.
Su Ruoxi nodded and raised the equity in her hand to give the gift book: "We are the bosses, so we can't watch ourselves lose money."
This sentence from my wife made Feng Yifan amused, which was very real, but also expressed Su Ruoxi's attitude and was willing to let her husband do it.
Looking at my mother again.
Lu Cuiling smiled and said, "Go, what vegetables are needed, your dad and I will fully support you."
Feng Ruoru heard that his grandfather, mother, and grandma supported his father, and the little girl also came forward and hugged his father and said, "Dad, Ruoruo also supports you. You will always be the best."
With the support of the whole family, Feng Yifan turned his head and looked at Su Liancheng and Mei Ru in front of the door.
"Well, I can go there, so the company's Chinese food needs to be changed in my way, starting from Fujinglou, and I don't have time to keep an eye on it. I can only say that it's a guide. We still have a lot of things to do in the future."
Su Liancheng and Mei Ru both laughed: "It's OK."
Mei Ru took out another contract: "You can take a look at this contract. You will be our company's consultant. 50% of the profits of Fujinglou will belong to you, and 40% of the profits of the company's Chinese restaurant chain will also be used as your employment fund."
Feng Yifan accepted the contract and said, "Okay, I'll take a look at it carefully and I'll give you a reply later."
The matter was over, and Su Liancheng and Mei Ru looked at each other, hesitating for a moment and preparing to leave.
At this moment, Feng Yifan asked, "You two should be fine, right? Are you busy? If you are not busy, why not go with us to see the stalls arranged by the reconstruction department?"
