Chapter 251: Chapter 251: Another One Taken
Chen Yu couldn't help but frown, even at this point, this fellow still carried an air of arrogance, actually still wanting to edge his products out of the Western market.
"Mr. Carnado, there are some matters we need to discuss seriously, you want my products to be pulled out, but do you have any sufficient reason for that?"
Carnado snorted coldly, his face filled with malice.
"As everyone knows, Eastern and Western cultures absolutely cannot coexist. We have been eating Western food for generations, and now that your meal kits have entered our market, they can easily make our people form the habit of eating Chinese food, which is a blatant cultural invasion!"
Chen Yu suddenly found it somewhat amusing; what cultural invasion? Frankly, this was just a matter of personal choice by the public.
Everyone felt that Chinese food was much more delicious than Western food by an unknown multiple.
They hadn't eaten it before simply because preparing Chinese food was too troublesome, but now with these affordable meal kits, of course, they would be welcomed by the majority.
Chen Yu didn't say much, just took a spare meal kit from the counter beside him.
This time, to promote these meal kits, William's family had also specifically prepared a large number of meal kits for Victor's wedding banquet.
Chen Yu didn't do much, just lightly cooked the meal kits, and then made seven dishes.
The rich aroma instantly filled the hall, and the crowd, who had just been raving about Chen Yu's cooking skills, now gathered around and soon polished off all seven dishes.
"I never thought such delicious food could actually be made from meal kits, if we had these at home in the future, wouldn't that save us the cost of hiring a chef!"
"This taste is really exquisite, not even top chefs could necessarily create such flavors!"
"No wonder the William family is so enthusiastic about promoting these meal kits, they are definitely a convenient benefit for the people!"
...
The people present began to discuss animatedly, suddenly elevating the status of the meal kits by several notches.
In this world, it's ultimately capital that speaks. The William family and other ancient royal families are themselves big capital.
Many companies and groups worldwide are controlled by them, so they can easily manipulate global stock prices, even the financial system.
The entry of meal kits into the Western market was a godsend for them; it would not only save a lot of trouble, but also allow many of their older industries to be phased out, keeping only some high-end restaurants or other industries.
Therefore, meal kits were a powerful tool for them to harvest the entire Western market's underclass.
The most important thing is that ordinary people had long been eagerly embracing these products.
Not only are the prices of these products very cheap, but they are also extremely convenient, ready to eat with just a little heating at home.
There was no need to spend money eating out, nor the effort to cook at home.
But those who suffered most were the chefs and businesses in the middle.
Calcedo was a well-known representative among them. He came today to challenge Chen Yu in order to protect their industrial chains.
"Mr. Calcedo, I don't want to judge you too much, but you've seen the advantages of these products! Moreover, as history progresses, many things will be phased out, I hope Mr. Calcedo can adapt to the historical tide."
This was said very reasonably, and in a very mild manner; anyone could hear it, it was clearly an urge for Calcedo to give up all his interests.
Releasing a heavy breath, Calcedo suddenly burst into laughter. His family had been chefs for generations, and it had been several decades since it had passed down to him.
Unexpectedly, their culinary skills, which had dominated the entire Western world, were defeated by a mere recipe pack. Stay connected through m-v l|e'm,p| y- r
With some resignation, Victor gave a salute to Calcedo and left the hall dejectedly.
However, everyone in the hall did not see him off, or even glance at him; they were all discussing the future business value of the recipe packs in the Western world.
Chen Yu made a slight adjustment, not interested in the industry structure chain of the Western world. Even if he destroyed its underlying structure, it would have nothing to do with him.
All he needed to ensure was that the Eastern market would not be too greatly impacted.
The next morning, the entire castle was festooned with decorations, and everyone was immersed in a joyful atmosphere.
Chen Yu, on the other hand, found a quiet spot, opened a bottle of champagne, and drank to himself.
Just then, Katherine suddenly sat down beside him.
"Mr. Chen, Mr. Victor, I hope you can come to the race track at the Alps after the wedding!" she said.
Chen Yu didn't say much, just nodded.
After all, he was now one of the representatives of the seven major racing teams in the world.
The next world-class motor race was to take place on the track of the Alps, so he had to be there.
By his calculations, it was just a few days away.
Katherine took out a USB drive from her person and handed it to Chen Yu.
"Mr. Chen, this contains all the basic information on the race track. You will need to examine it carefully before the race. The tracks here are not like those in the East and many things are based on Western rules!" she explained.
Chen Yu had not expected Katherine to be so considerate and carefully stored away the USB drive.
The cars in the East and West were different to begin with, even the positions of the driver's seat were on opposite sides.
Moreover, the rules for world-class racing events were mostly set by the West, which is why Eastern teams had always struggled to appear on world-class tracks.
Chen Yu finished his glass of champagne and then got up, looking in the direction of the wedding.
"It seems that Victoria and Mr. Victor have a deep relationship," he observed.
Katherine rested her chin on her hands as she leaned on the railing. "Yes, they have known each other for a very long time," she said.
In the middle of their conversation, a figure rushed into the wedding scene and collapsed onto the red carpet.
"Victor, I really didn't expect you, old man, to break the promise between us and remarry!" he exclaimed.
The sudden turn of events made everyone at the scene tense up, and William's family's bodyguards entered the scene immediately, trying to drag the intruder away.
But Victor stopped everyone and stepped forward to help the old man up from the ground.
"Lost! Our agreement was voided ten years ago. Besides, the William's family still lacks a true heir, so I have no choice but to remarry," said Victor.
Lost did not care about that and lay on the ground, rolling around and behaving like a scoundrel.
"When you married my sister, you promised that you would have her as your only wife in your lifetime, but now you're marrying someone else, how should I interpret this?" he demanded.
