Chapter 162 Unexpected Acquaintance (Seeking Subscription)

Due to the overwhelming number of tourists attracted to the tasting, a simple suggestion to place a bulk order was met with enthusiastic agreement from the tourists and buyers in line.

Putting everything else aside, just the aroma of the roast chicken and the texture of the Emerald Lettuce were enough to convince nine out of ten tasters to willingly open their wallets and make a purchase.

Although Chen's products were priced a bit higher, their quality and deliciousness were undeniable.

The tourists attending the Xiya Exhibition were mostly well-off individuals.

Ordinary office workers in Shanghai were likely still working 996 schedules on weekends, and rarely spent their own money to visit the National Exhibition and Convention Center.

The food enthusiasts gathered at the scene were mostly living comfortably, planning to explore diverse cuisines from around the world at the Xiya Exhibition to enrich their daily menus.

After tasting the incredibly delicious roast chicken and lettuce, it was only natural that someone would suggest taking some to go.

"We're really sorry, everyone! We're here at the Xiya Exhibition for a tasting promotion, and our stock is indeed limited."

"If we sell it all to you, the customers behind you won't get a chance to try it." Li Fei patiently explained to the customers, wiping sweat from his forehead.

Such strong purchasing desire astonished the Jiang Province brands that were also invited to participate in the exhibition!

Which exhibitor didn't try their best to promote and sell their products?

How could Chen's be pushing business away when it came knocking on their door?

And look at Chen's appeal, they just pushed out a Western-style food cart and brought back such a large crowd.

Comparing it to the desolate scene on their own side, the difference was immediately apparent.

Even the originally unpopular D16 exhibition hall was revitalized by Chen's promotion and tasting event.

A steady stream of people was drawn from the leading exhibition halls in the front, and even the lesser-known small brands in the same hall benefited.

Especially the heads of the booths next to Chen's, who were now as happy as Wang Yousheng in new shoes, their mouths grinning from ear to ear.

They began to show their skills, planning to take advantage of Chen's popularity, offering small stools and drinks to the tourists lining up for Chen's, while running to Li Fei, the person in charge of Chen's booth, to hand out business cards, saying they had opportunities to cooperate.

In particular, major brands in the Jiang Province food and beverage industry, such as Yiming and Xinrongji, extended olive branches of cooperation to Chen's.

After all, in this era where everything depends on traffic, even a pig can fly with popularity, let alone an exhibitor like Chen's with strong product strength.

There were countless similar cooperation invitations.

In the end, even some well-known foreign Black Pearl and Michelin restaurants, as well as buyers from royal families in the Middle East and Europe, came.

Because compared to the unique roast chicken that could not be imitated, these international buyers involved in providing catering services for the wealthy were more interested in the quality of Emerald Lettuce.

This new variety of lettuce, different from traditional lettuce, became a sought-after object for these international buyers, just like wild matsutake mushrooms from China.

It should be known that wild matsutake mushrooms from Western Sichuan can sell for 150 yuan/jin domestically, but once they are air-packed and exported to high-end restaurants in Europe, the Middle East, Japan, and South Korea, the price of matsutake mushrooms can be multiplied several times along with the exchange rate, and even a slice grilled on charcoal can sell for nearly 2,000 yuan.

Although the retail price of Emerald Lettuce is as high as 3 yuan per piece, which is already very outrageous in the eyes of Chinese people, after all, a few dozen pieces of lettuce in supermarkets only sell for 2 to 4 yuan per jin.

But in the eyes of these international buyers, it is as cheap as if they picked it up for nothing!

As long as it is packaged and sent to the tables of wealthy families, it will definitely become a popular item in the gourmet circle recently.

Soon, a large number of interested buyers asked Li Fei for cooperation contact information, planning to go to Chen's headquarters to discuss the export of this Emerald Lettuce in depth.

......

Chen Jue was very confident that the brand he created would become the most eye-catching in the D16 area.

Under the temptation of the freshly roasted aroma of MC [Melter], not to mention ordinary people, even he, a senior MC player, couldn't resist the roast chicken aroma that was comparable to a BUG.

However, due to the large number of people gathered at the scene, Chen Jue didn't go to his booth to help, lest he be a hindrance.

Although he had participated in several tasting booths before, he was really not as good as the cadre employees transferred from various branches in terms of front-line work.

In addition, his face had been tied to Chen's once before and became a hot search.

If he showed up at the scene with the identity of the founder, it would definitely cause a big reaction and sensation.

So Chen Jue deliberately kept an eye out, went to the souvenir shop in the convention center to buy a Xiya Exhibition commemorative baseball cap, made a little disguise, and began to stroll around several nearby exhibition halls.

Because this Xiya Exhibition, in addition to well-known food manufacturers at home and abroad, also attracted many suppliers of raw materials.

From raw material supply to advanced food processing technology, everything can be seen at the Xiya Exhibition.

With such a rare opportunity, Chen Jue naturally wanted to visit more. While increasing his knowledge, he wanted to see if he could find some different business opportunities at this Xiya Exhibition.

Unexpectedly, before he had left the exhibition hall of Jiang Province brands in Area D, Chen Jue discovered an exhibiting company that was a bit surprising to him.

"Huh? Xianju Shengnong Breeding Company?"

"Isn't this the breeding farm that sells me Xianju chicken eggs!"

Chen Jue went over to take a look and found that Shengnong Breeding's booth was very small.

Compared to Chen's specially invited booth, it was more than three-quarters smaller.

It was as if a normal booth was divided into several parts, squeezing several small local enterprises inside at the same time.

The person in charge of the booth was a round-faced little girl with a bit of baby fat. He saw her patiently distributing promotional leaflets to passing tourists, introducing the eggs produced by her family: "Sir, would you like to take a look at the Xianju chicken eggs produced by Shengnong? They are bred in a pure green ecological farm and do not contain any hormones or harmful substances."

"Our Shengnong's eggs are very famous in Taizhou, and even Xinrongji's restaurant will come to purchase them specially."

The round-faced girl was trying her best to promote, but most of the passing tourists came to taste the food, and didn't pay much attention to household ingredients like eggs. They took the leaflet, glanced at it, and left.

After all, eggs are sold in major supermarkets and vegetable markets. There are selenium-rich eggs, organic eggs, free-range eggs, native chicken eggs, etc. Each region has its own special varieties.

A county-level breeding farm like Shengnong Breeding wanted to jump out of the local area and run to this Xiya Exhibition with a collection of big names, which was really a bit out of place.

If it weren't for Chen's in the distance attracting a group of people, it is estimated that the round-faced little girl would not be able to distribute a few promotional leaflets.

At this time, an old man sitting in the booth waved to her: "Xingxing, come over and take a rest. You've been standing for half a day, drink some water and don't get thirsty."

"Grandpa, it's okay! I'll go and distribute a few more. I see there are a lot of people over at Chen's, I'll go over there." The round-faced girl looked enviously at Chen's booth in the distance.

She imagined in her mind how good it would be if her booth had such good business.

After all, in order to participate in the Xiya Exhibition this time, her whole family entrusted the boss with a lot of relationships, and it was not easy to get a spot from a group of agricultural trade enterprises participating in the exhibition in Taizhou.

Although they were squeezed into a car by forcibly sharing a booth with others, Shengnong Breeding Farm spent tens of thousands of registration fees before and after for this exhibition.

If they can't find a few interested partners in these 3 days, how many eggs will they have to sell to earn back the registration fee?

At this time, Chen Jue, who had been watching for a while, came over and walked to the booth, pretending to pick up an egg from a bamboo basket and looked at it.

It's just that I didn't expect that it would be okay if I didn't look at it.

As soon as Chen Jue saw it, his face changed in shock, and he leaned back on the spot!

[Fresh Eggs: Vitality is booming, carefully cultivated Xianju chicken top-quality egg chickens, after processing, have a top-quality taste and deliciousness, and after hatching, there is a higher probability of giving birth to top-quality Xianju chicks.]
