The Rich Man's Life Begins with a Comeback

Chapter 46 Striving and Tempering the Mind
Three days later, the grand banquet will be held at Zhenhai.

Gu Heng walked in the spacious and bright corridor, surrounded by senior executives of Zhencui Group. Service staff bowed slightly when they saw Gu Heng and his entourage.

Two days ago, Gu Heng, in his capacity as chairman of Zhencui Group, inspected seven restaurants under five major catering brands of Zhencui Group: Sushi Un, Chao Yu, Yuan Zhi, Yun Zun, and Yan Rong Hui.

Zhenhai was the last restaurant Gu Heng inspected today.

Among the six major catering brands of Zhencui Group, Zhenhai, Sushi Cloud and Yanronghui belong to the highest level, representing the highest standard of the catering industry in Beichun and even Jilin Province, and are also the best choice for many bosses' business banquets.

Zhenhai is different from Chaoyu, which is a seafood buffet. Although the price is relatively high, ordinary people can still afford to eat there during holidays if they grit their teeth and stomp their feet. Its main customer base is still the vast majority of ordinary people.

Zhenhai primarily targets high-level business owners who frequently host business banquets, and all the seafood stored or temporarily kept here comes from top-quality ingredients from around the world.

Alaskan king crab, French blue lobster, Canadian geoduck, Hokkaido red king crab, French oysters, Australian king crab, bluefin tuna, wild grouper, New Zealand black abalone...

As long as customers make an appointment in advance, and as long as the ingredients are legal, there is no ingredient that Zhenhai cannot obtain for you, and they can satisfy all kinds of cooking needs.

At the same time, Zhenhai also offers two dining options.

It could be a regular Chinese meal, or a single-serving meal cooked in a separate pot.

Like Yanronghui, the entire Zhenhai Grand Banquet is a standalone villa with its own courtyard, and there is no public dining area; all the rooms are private and highly private.

In addition, Zhenhai Heyan Ronghui also offers family banquet services.

Provided the money is right, the chef team can bring ingredients and provide door-to-door service.

After two and a half days of comprehensive inspection, Gu Heng finally gained a more than superficial and general understanding of the eight restaurants under the Zhencui Group.

"Chairman Gu, as the group's flagship brand, Zhenhai Grand Banquet has always maintained a high degree of consistency with the group's philosophy and has always implemented the group's pursuit of ultimate quality. We will never compromise on service quality in the slightest..."

The middle-aged man walking beside Gu Heng at this moment was Chen Zhifeng, the general manager of Zhenhai Banquet. Although he was old enough to be Gu Heng's father, he was now extremely respectful and dared not slack off or act arrogantly because of his age.

In fact, it wasn't just him; the group executives who followed Gu Heng all shared the same attitude. In the past two days, they dared not compromise on any of Gu Heng's requests.

After all, the example of General Manager Wu Tao of Sushi Cloud was right before their eyes. On the first day Gu Heng took over the group, he directly dismissed a senior executive of the group with thunderous means, and the reason he gave was enough to leave everyone in the group speechless.

Moreover, the team of lawyers who had been reviewing all of the group's legal documents and transaction contracts from the past two years in the group's main conference room completed their review yesterday and withdrew from the group yesterday.

According to rumors, some employees of the group witnessed the investigation report that the legal team finally submitted to Gu Heng. The report was half a finger thick, which shows how detailed it was.

Those who rise to high positions in any industry, whose hands are not stained with dirt?

They originally thought that after the report was handed to Gu Heng, Gu Heng would definitely take some action today, but to their surprise, Gu Heng not only did not take any action today, but even seemed to be in a better mood than the previous two days.

This unusual behavior has made many of the group's senior executives somewhat uneasy.

It felt like a Damocles' sword was hanging over our heads, which made everyone work even harder and more diligently.

After all, Zhencui Group has always been doing well in Jilin Province. Now it has been acquired by a more financially powerful investor, and the new boss is so young. Its future development prospects are likely to be quite good.

Hu Jilin had aged, and his business philosophy gradually became more conservative, with his management thinking leaning towards maintaining the status quo.

Of the six brands under the Zhencui Group, excluding the newly established Sushi Cloud, the other five brands already possess very mature operational experience and a very complete supply chain.

With sufficient funds, they can break out of Kyrgyzstan at any time and expand into neighboring provinces, and even potentially conquer the whole country in the future.

In this situation, no one wants to be kicked out halfway through like Wu Tao, thus turning more than ten years of hard work into nothing.

As Gu Heng listened to Chen Zhifeng's introduction, he walked towards the outside of the Zhenhai Grand Banquet.

However, at that moment, his forward steps suddenly paused slightly.

[Challenge Mission: Refining Character and Tempering the Mind]

[Task Description: Practice is the best teacher; only by crouching down can you see the ants clearly. Please calm your mind and conduct in-depth research on the six major catering brands of Zhencui Group.]

[Current Progress: 0/6] [Task Reward: Growth Gift Pack x1]

Gu Heng looked at the system screen that suddenly appeared in front of him, a look of surprise flashing in his eyes.

Another challenge mission has been triggered?

Such a thought flashed through his mind, and then the surprise in Gu Heng's eyes turned into excitement.

Having just experienced the power of the system last night, I'm already taking on another challenge today.

Gu Heng is now extremely enthusiastic about Tongzi.

The content of the challenge at hand is not difficult to understand.

The general idea is to have Gu Heng be down-to-earth, deeply rooted in the front line of Zhencui Group, and gain a comprehensive understanding of Zhencui Group's six catering brands.

It's not too difficult, it just takes a little time.

Gu Heng did a quick calculation and realized that he currently had two challenge missions and two prerequisite missions.

Both challenge missions are quite time-consuming, while the two prerequisite missions are simpler and relatively more important.

Since these two prerequisite tasks are related to unlocking the second level of the [Golden Tower of Wealth], Gu Heng can tell which is more important.

"Chairman Gu, what's wrong?"

When Chen Zhifeng saw Gu Heng suddenly stop, he felt a little uneasy, wondering if he had said something wrong.

"No, I just thought of some things by chance."

Gu Heng shook his head, gathering his thoughts and refocusing his attention on reality.

Surrounded by a crowd, Gu Heng walked to the front of the main hall of the Zhenhai Grand Banquet.

"Mr. Gu..."

Luo Xiwen, who was originally sitting in the sofa rest area waiting for Gu Heng, saw that so many people had walked out of Zhenhai and were all dressed smartly and had an extraordinary demeanor.

Seeing this, she quickly stood up from the sofa.

"okay."

"I have some personal matters to attend to this afternoon. You can all go about your business."

Gu Heng nodded to Luo Xiwen when he saw him, then turned around and said this to everyone.

Upon hearing this, everyone immediately agreed.

At the same time, there are some quick-witted executives.

They secretly observed Luo Xiwen, memorizing his appearance.

"Let's go."

After Gu Heng finished speaking with Chen Zhifeng and the others, he walked straight to Luo Xiwen's side and smiled gently at him.

"Ok."

Facing the attention of the crowd, Luo Xiwen became slightly reserved.

She gripped the shoulder strap of her handbag tightly and followed behind Gu Heng, quickly walking out of the Zhenhai Grand Banquet...
