Chapter 1920: Make All Dishes Easy To Make
Mag was speaking the truth. He didn’t want to take all the credit. He simply received recipes that had been refined by generations of his predecessors, learned diligently, and practiced hard.
However, these words sounded even more arrogant to Mylo and Garlan.
Although Mag looked humble on the surface, looking from another angle, he seemed to be mocking those chefs who didn’t know how to change.
Garlan looked at Mylo, and wanted to know how Mylo, who was very good at understanding hidden meanings, comprehend these words.
Mylo raised his eyebrows to show that this was indeed rather arrogant. It would definitely make those self-important chefs furious, and make the magazine even more widely discussed.
“I tried your ‘Buddha jumps over the wall’ yesterday, and its exquisite taste is unforgettable. It even made my hair grow after being bald for over 10 years. May I ask, how do you create such delicious food that can make the hair regrow at the same time? A lot of the seafood in this dish is very hard to come by in Chaos City.” Garlan quickly followed by a question that he was very curious about.
Mag flicked a glance at Garlan’s head. His originally bald head indeed had fine hair growing out like the forest after a rain. Judging from his experience, Mag nodded slightly. “You will need to eat another two doses and pay attention to rest at the same time so that it can grow properly.”
“Yes.” Garlan quickly nodded, following the “doctor’s orders.”
Mag and Garlan looked at each other, and then suddenly something wasn’t quite right.
“I’m sorry. It’s my occupational hazard.” Mag touched his nose awkwardly.
However, Garlan seriously said, “You are really a good doctor.”
“As a chef, making delicious food is the most basic requirement. As for what other effects would happen after the taste is achieved, it’s already beyond my control.” Mag shook his head. “Therefore, I didn’t know that ‘Buddha jumps over the wall’ is able to treat baldness when I was coming up with it. It was a pure surprise when the customers discovered that effect after the dish was released.”
Garlan pondered. “Perhaps, this is the giveback of the exquisite taste.”
“What an interesting explanation.” Mag smiled too.
The interview went on in a relaxed atmosphere. Garlan’s questions weren’t too tricky, and Mag basically told them all that he knew, so that made both their work easier.
About an hour later, Garlan appreciatively said to Mag, “Thank you for accepting our interview and letting us understand so many stories behind all these delicious foods. I believe even more people will fall in love with Mamy Restaurant and become your fans after this issue’s interview.”
“You’re very welcome.” Mag smiled. He actually quite liked sharing his experience of success. It felt like… showing off?
Oh, this description was too vulgar. It should be called sharing happiness.
Garlan asked all that he should ask, and didn’t mention a single word about the things he shouldn’t. As a gourmet magazine’s chief editor, he still had some understanding of chefs.
“When will this article be released?” Mag asked curiously.
“The article will be in the new issue coming out at the end of this month,” Garlan replied with a smile.
Actually, the content of the new issue had already been set and even sent to the printing workshop.
However, Garlan changed his mind after this interview. He intended to add this exclusive interview written by Mylo to this new issue, and make it the main selling point.
The Perfect Food hadn’t been doing well under the combined attack of Meatatarianism and Vegetarianism for the past few months. This would be their fight to reverse the situation.
Mag nodded, and then changed the topic. “Does your magazine have a column that teaches people how to cook?”
“Huh?”
Both Garlan and Mylo stared at Mag with bewilderment.
“It is a gourmet tutorial column,” Mag explained.
Garlan got it. He shook his head, and said, “We don’t have it currently. You should know that a recipe is the most important thing to a chef, and they wouldn’t share it easily, let alone publish it in a magazine that is so widely read.”
Mag nodded his head slightly. Looking from a chef’s point of view, this thinking wasn’t hard to understand.
However, it was just this fixed-minded thinking that caused the extremely slow innovation speed of delicious food and a standstill for the entire culinary world.
“I would like to have a gourmet tutorial column in your Perfect Food magazine,” Mag said to Garlan seriously.
“Huh?” Garlan was stunned before revealing an exhilarated expression. He even said in a trembling voice, “Y-you are saying that you want to have a gourmet tutorial column in our Perfect Food to teach cooking?”
Mylo also looked at Mag with shock, and couldn’t quite believe his ears.
“Yes.” Mag nodded. “I will share a simple and easy-to-learn home cooked meal recipe in every issue. The kind that the readers could learn according to the article.”
Garlan quickly calculated the benefits that this could bring to Perfect Food in his mind. Given Mamy Restaurant’s current reputation, if they could undertake its exclusive gourmet tutorial column, Perfect Food would become the undisputed leader in the gourmet magazines’ world, and completely crush both Meatatarianism and Vegetarianism.
Garlan said to Mag gravely, “If Mr. Mag has this idea, we at Perfect Food will do our very best to cooperate and support in setting up your column. We will also pay you a good author’s remuneration.”
Mag immediately got straight to the point. “Then let’s talk about the exact collaboration details now. Let’s not rush to set up the column first. We can decide when to launch the column after this month’s issue is released and we see the market’s feedback. By then, you can put a notice in this month’s issue. It could perhaps achieve an even better result.”
“Your suggestion is very good. We will do that.” Garlan took out his little notebook, and took that down. Increasing readers’ anticipation was what they always did, but this was the first time that they were putting out a notice. However, it sounded very feasible.
Mag discussed with them the gourmet tutorial for another 30 minutes. They basically set all the particulars of their collaboration.
Garlan looked at Mag with anticipation. “Mr. Mag, are you really not willing to sign the exclusive license agreement with us? We will give you the best remuneration and strongest promotion. We promise to maximize your fame and interests.”
“Exclusivity means monopoly. My wish is to make all dishes easy to make, and not earn a little remuneration.” Mag shook his head with a smile.
“Alright. We respect your wishes.” Garlan nodded. Although it was a pity, he didn’t harass him.
Smiling, Mylo said, “Boss Mag, if you have any problems with writing, please feel free to write a letter to me. Although I don’t dare to say I am an expert at this area, I have at least already written for 10-odd years.”
“Alright.” Mag nodded with a smile, but he secretly scolded inwardly, You are my junior when it comes to writing an article.
