Meng Fanding worked as the head chef at Desheng Restaurant for three years. He had been promised an annual salary of 200,000 yuan plus a 50-50 profit split, but after three years, he had received only 150,000 yuan. His business partner, Jia Renyi, deducted money under all kinds of pretexts, leaving Meng Fanding disheartened and prompting him to resign. With financial support from Chen Bo'an, an old friend of his master, Meng Fanding opened a street food stall. Su Wanqing, a former restaurant operations manager, recognized his talent and proactively joined him as a partner, taking charge of operations. With his extraordinary home-style dishes and honest business practices, the stall became a sensation. Jealous, Jia Renyi cut off his ingredient supplies, hired thugs to stage fake accidents, and paid online trolls to post negative reviews. Meng Fanding persevered, winning back customers' trust through quality ingredients and genuine cooking. Within a year, his food stall had expanded to three branches, while Desheng Restaurant closed down after its reputation collapsed.
