Zhang Bin
The Three SquareSites in Luping Township, Huaihua, Hunan, are also called Yan Wangpo, and it is creepy to hear this name. More than 2,000 meters above sea level, the clouds are light and the wind is light on sunny days, and the clouds are misty on rainy days. The mountain is steep, not open to traffic, no telephone, typical poor countryside, real poor mountains and bad water. However, one side of the landscape nurtures one person, that is, this small mountain village in the remote area of the poor village raises generations of ordinary mountain children, and Zhang Bin is one of them.
The Iron Pots Culinary Arts Club was established
On December 18, 2016, Huaihua Weiyuan ~ Iron Brothers Cooking Art Fair was officially established. The Iron Pot Cooking Arts Hub is a non-profit catering community, initiated by Zhang Bin, He Guangzao, Wu Wenlin and others, and jointly created by more than a dozen activists in the Huaihua chef community, aiming to serve the Huaihua catering industry.
In the impression of the outside world's peers, Huaihua chef is really a plate of loose sand, brutal and dry brother and can not get on the table! Zhang Bin has also experienced it in the years when he has traveled south and north as a Chef in Huaihua. The iron pot chef community established by it aims at industry exchanges, technical cooperation, information sharing, and group development, and strives to improve the skill level and personal quality of Huaihua chefs, so that all sectors of society attach importance to the chef profession, so that the older generation of chefs can be respected, and a new generation of chefs can be developed. To achieve a new image of Huaihua chef who truly respects the teacher and loves his post and unites and helps each other.
In a short period of time since the establishment of the general community of Weiyuan ~ Iron Pot, more than 40 sub-communities and individual branches have been set up in Huaihua County and the surrounding areas, and the number of community peers has reached tens of thousands, and the sub-communities have been developing and spreading to the whole country! Community members can realistically enjoy convenient services such as peer dating and friendship, free practical technical exchange and learning of dishes, food exploration and sharing, job search and recruitment information release and dissemination, corporate advertising planning and publicity, and public welfare help for the poor and the weak!
At the same time, Zhang Bin's Zhangjiawa Kitchen School, Back Basket People's Home and many catering brand physical stores have created thousands of employment opportunities and free training, observation and learning platforms for Huaihua Chef Brothers, and have contributed their own strength to Huaihua catering and chef industry with their own practical actions!
Today, 99% of the cooks come from vast rural areas. Their general level of literacy is relatively low, creating barriers to better learning skills. A man's entry into the industry is equivalent to a woman marrying a man, a lifelong event! Often a lifelong job, young people put all their hopes on career choices. Zhang Bin deeply feels the importance and responsibility of cultivating a qualified chef talent.
He was also a poor child, with no culture and no background, and he hoped to use his experience and what he had learned to teach his disciples, hoping that they would take fewer detours. While imparting professional skills, he also pays attention to the professional ethics of the apprentices and the cultivation of their character. Painstakingly guide the apprentices to correct social values, and teach the apprentices how to assume the responsibilities of the family as a real man.
Nowadays, the apprentices have also achieved great success, most of them have become the head chef and head chef of their hotels, and some have won honorary titles such as "Hunan Cuisine Gold Medal Chef" and "Chinese Cooking Master".
Teaching and educating people, Zhang Bin said the most: "People are not easy, Shan Liwa is simple and kind!" Shan Liwa eats bitterly, dominates wildly, is impatient, and is a good hand at doing things, but someone needs to play a role in passing on the help and leading the way! And the best candidate for this is Shan Liwa! "It is a mountain liwa, for a mountain liwa, is a mountain liwa's most sincere and sincere original intention and feelings!"
