Chapter 106
There are rules everywhere in this world, covering every place, every industry, and even every person.

But behind the rules, there are often many unspoken rules that outsiders cannot see.

For the Michelin travel guide, Richard Parker is undoubtedly the person who is most familiar with their unspoken rules.

"Let me tell you this, Michelin has [-] independent gourmet spies like me all over the world. These [-] people have to search and inspect gourmet restaurants all over the world, especially all over Europe, and they must do so anonymously, without showing their Michelin certificates."

"According to the most standard, a credit card and a car, they have to inspect eighty-odd three-star restaurants, hundreds of two-star restaurants, and over a thousand one-star restaurants in a year. How much do you think it will cost?"

Hearing what he said, Yang Huan understood a little bit.

The most intemperate thing in this world is public spending.

Michelin employs these gourmet spies, each of whom is a gourmet lover. Even if they don't spend money on anything other than official business, just eating, it's a staggering amount of money.

Didn't Elvie Durkun say that just now?
The average consumption level of a Michelin three-star restaurant is [-] euros. What about the maximum consumption level?

"Michelin does not accept any form of gifts or advertisements. The only income is the publication of the Michelin travel guide. Calculated according to various editions, the average annual circulation is 150 million copies, and the highest price is only 24 euros. That is to say, no fees are counted, and Michelin only earns 600 million euros a year from the publication."

Having said that, what Richard Parker wanted to say has been clearly revealed.

"Do you think Michelin's income can support such a huge expense?"

"And in the past few years, with the emergence of other food evaluation agencies in the United States and Europe, Michelin's lofty status has been constantly challenged, and the evaluation mechanism has also been questioned. There have been turmoil in the past few years."

Yang Huan understood what Richard Parker meant, and he also understood why Hervé Durkun wanted to avoid suspicion.

After all, there is no selection in this world that can truly be fair, impartial, objective and independent.

Even the Michelin guide.

Since the cost pressure is too great and the income is not high, Michelin must find a way to increase revenue and reduce expenditure.

Open source is to increase some income other than distribution, and to reduce expenditure is to reduce the investment in evaluation. For example, we can’t go to random inspections every year. Some restaurants only go once every few years, or even once from beginning to end.

Or for some restaurants with certain qualifications, after a certain activity and a good relationship have been established, they are allowed to be on the list, etc. These are all feasible methods.

In fact, Michelin has had this happen more than once.

In the past, a Michelin gourmet spy wrote a book to expose the inside story. Later, a Belgian restaurant was on the list first, and it opened after a period of time after the publication of the travel guide.

These cases all illustrate one thing without exception, there is something tricky in it!
"Whether it's from the standpoint of the company or the standpoint of a friend, I hope you can accept the honor of Michelin three stars, because I will often invite you to dinner in the future!"

When Richard Parker said this, he laughed, "You know, I like Chinese food culture very much."

Yang Huan's various reasons for wanting to withdraw this honor before now seem unnecessary.

After hearing what Richard Parker said, he felt that it would be good for him to keep this honor.

"Okay, I'll think about it again!"

Of course Yang Huan couldn't agree on the spot, at least he had to put on a show.

Richard Parker is also an old fritter, so he didn't say much after hearing it.

"After your branch in London opens, remember to call me, and I will find a chance to visit again!"

Yang Huan understood what he meant, hehe smiled and nodded in agreement.

Just at this time, Hervé Durkun came back and saw the two talking and laughing happily. He knew that things were going well, but he pretended not to know, "What are you talking about, so happy?"

Yang Huan said with a smile: "We are discussing a way to resolve the embarrassment and doubts that Michelin is currently facing."

As soon as he said that, Hervé Durquin was immediately interested.

"Hurry up and listen."

"It's very simple, cooperate with us!" This is what Yang Huan suddenly thought of just now.

"The problems you are encountering now are nothing more than some people questioning that you are not fair and fair, and you are completely operating in the dark. The outside world does not know your specific selection criteria, and there are problems with the speed and efficiency of the selection."

Hervé Durkun nodded, "Yes, that's right."

Even Richard Parker has paid attention to it. If it can be solved, it will be a big favor to Michelin.

"It's actually very simple. You set up several public service accounts on our WeChat platform. When your spies go to evaluate a certain restaurant, they can tell users directly through WeChat what they ate and saw. They can even complain and praise, etc."

Yang Huan's idea is quite unique. The number of WeChat users is increasing rapidly, and it is very convenient. As long as you have a smart phone, you can do it without any additional cost.

"People nowadays attach great importance to the right to know and the sense of participation. You have to let them know everything they are interested in, let them comment, participate in this kind of evaluation, and become a part of it. Then this kind of mistrust can be resolved to the greatest extent."

"Wonderful! Wonderful!!!" Elvie Durkun patted his thigh and praised.

"That's a great idea!"

Richard? Parker listened, also think this idea is very good.

"I'll have someone prepare it right away when I get back!" Elvie Durkun is very excited now.

Because he really felt that Yang Huan's proposal was like enlightenment, resolving an imminent problem for him.

Thinking about it seriously, this Young Master Huan is really a genius.

The ideas that come up with random brainstorms are so wonderful, it’s great!

"Okay, I will also send technicians to France to provide you with help and advice."

In fact, Yang Huan also has his own little thoughts.

First of all, cooperating with such an authoritative evaluation organization will greatly improve the image of WeChat.

What’s more, the data accumulated by Michelin’s food evaluation can help WeChat to provide travel assistance and food guides to the greatest extent in the future, which is also very attractive to WeChat users.

After seeing off Richard Parker and Elvie Durkun, Yang Huan called Huang Tianshun over and told him about it.

"So that's what happened!"

After hearing Yang Huan's words, Huang Tianshun agreed with Yang Huan's change of mind and leaving the Michelin three-star signboard.

It's an honor.

And maybe even the branch in London will have a chance to make the list.

"Old Huang, how we cook and what ingredients we use in the future, we still do it the same way, regardless of whether they have three Michelin stars or not, it has nothing to do with us!" Yang Huan said with arrogance.

"Understood!" Huang Tianshun also thought clearly, and his heart was relieved.

"But Master Huan, it's best not to let too many people know about this matter, after all..."

"Well, you can figure it out yourself!"

Yang Huan was not interested in this kind of thing, so he let Huang Tianshun handle it by himself.

After seeing off Huang Tianshun, Yang Huan sat in the open-air restaurant, facing the Test River, looking at the sailboats and yachts on the river bank, thinking about something.

"Master Huan." Huang Ying walked up to Yang Huan's side, and sat down across a table.

"Is there anything you can do for me?" It's rare to take the initiative to deliver it to your door.

Huang Ying didn't know why, but she blushed when she saw him.

"This is the key to your house. I've already cleaned it for you." She pushed a key over.

After returning, Yang Huan hadn't even been to the house.

"Oh, okay!" Yang Huan took it casually.

He is considering whether to open more Wangjiangge branches in major cities?

But in this way, will not take the step too far?
Also, should we use the relationship of Michelin to let more Chinese restaurants appear on the list and improve the status of Chinese food?
At the very least, I have to let those voters look down on Chinese food. They always think that there are many Michelin three-star restaurants in Japan, which means good Japanese food. Look, it’s not all because of the food and attitude.

Sitting on the side, Huang Ying saw him staring at the river in a daze, knowing that he was thinking about something, so she couldn't say a lot.

Originally, she wanted to help Du Ziteng thank Yang Huan, but now...

She was really curious, what is the structure of Master Huan's head?

How is it possible to do so many incredible things?
She really wanted to get to know her better.

"By the way, Huang Ying."

"Huh?" Huang Ying was suddenly taken aback.

"What's the matter with you?" Yang Huan felt strange, why was this girl so startled?

"It's okay, it's okay!" Huang Yingfen's face was flushed, and she looked extremely handsome.

Yang Huan chuckled, "You helped me design the house and clean it up, and you will be my part-time worker in the future. To be honest, how do you want me to thank you?"

Seeing Yang Huan's ambiguous eyes and smile, Huang Yingfang's heart fluttered.

Is it possible that he wants to promise with his body?
She even forgot to ask, when did she promise him to be a part-time worker?
"No, you don't need to thank me."

"Yes, yes!" Yang Huan chuckled, turned his head to look behind him, made sure that there was no one else, and moved his head closer.

"How about I take you to the mall again?"

When it came to shopping, Huang Yingfan's face turned even redder, and she couldn't sit still.

"Master Huan, if you talk nonsense again, I will ignore you from now on!"

Yang Huan laughed even louder, "Why am I talking nonsense? I am serious and serious and want to go to the mall to buy a gift for you. Isn't that serious?"

"Anyway, don't mention shopping malls." Huang Ying stomped her feet lightly and stood up.

"It doesn't matter if you don't mention the shopping mall. We just launched a gift giving app. I'll go to see if there is Damoris on it."

Damoris, isn't that the shop where Yang Huan took Huang Ying to choose underwear?

Huang Ying bit her lower lip lightly, stared fiercely at Yang Huan for a while, then said, "I don't care about you!" and left.

Yang Huan shrugged his shoulders, imitating her tone, and said coquettishly, "I'll ignore you, damn!"

After walking a few steps, Huang Ying burst out laughing non-stop.

This guy is too talkative, he is not serious for a moment, but he just can't be hated.

After Huang Ying left, Yang Huan waved at Long Wu, "Bring me my phone."

After picking up the phone, Yang Huan quickly logged into Apple's official app store and found this social gift app called WRAPP. He directly logged in with his WeChat account and entered the main page, feeling very simple and comfortable.

"Wow, there really is Damoris, and Andres Ihaan did a good job!"

Yang Huanzhen found Dameris's gift card and gift.

"I have to choose the sexiest one." He laughed in his heart, thinking of Huang Ying's expression when she received the gift, it must be very funny.

The Internet has such advantages and benefits.

"If Huang Ying has it, others should too." Yang Huan decided to do just that.

Zhang Ning is still in the country and cannot enjoy this treatment for the time being, so Yang Huan decided to give it to Huang Ying, Charlene Lahiri and Lin Yuner.

But when he was searching for Lin Yun'er, he found that a fan wanted to give her a gift card, and allowed more people to add money to it.

After Yang Huan thought about it, he simply clicked in and found out that this fan gave him a pound.

"Wow, are you too stingy?"

Yang Huan shook his head, and entered one hundred in the amount, but felt that it was too little.

"It's the first time my young master gave a gift card to a beautiful woman. It's too little to give one hundred and one thousand, at least ten thousand!"

So he entered four zeros, but who knew, with a shake of his hand, he accidentally lost too much.

What's worse, the order was directly generated and sent out.
