Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    In the workers' club auditorium, the cooking competition is about to begin.  I saw two hosts, one male and one female, holding microphones on both sides of the stage. The spotlight hit them and the sound of music suddenly entered.  "Dear leaders and distinguished guests, good afternoon everyone." "After fierce competition, our gourmet cooking competition has entered the quarterfinals. The remaining contestants are all the elites among the elites I wish them success  Excellent results" "The following are the four contestants" The host introduced the contestants to the audience respectively, and the chefs and their assistants waved to the audience together.  The venue burst into applause, and the atmosphere gradually became warmer.  Since it is already late in the schedule, the opening procedure is relatively simple.  If we leave it to the opening and closing ceremonies, and nothing else, the speeches of the leaders alone will not be finished in less than two hours.  Next, the host announced the content of today¡¯s competition. There are two items in total, a cold dish and a hot dish.  The cold dishes are all vegetarian, with five to eight ingredients selected by the contestants for on-site preparation; the hot dishes are shrimp-themed, and other contents can be freely used.  However, be careful not to use animal and plant raw materials expressly protected by the state, and not to use illegal additives.  The competition time is one and a half hours. If the timeout is not completed, the game will be automatically judged as a loss.  With the host¡¯s order, each chef and his assistant immediately cooperated according to the pre-determined division of labor and got busy nervously.  The camera above the stage also started working, looking for the best angle to record the game footage and transmit it to several large LCD screens scattered around the venue, so that the audience could clearly see the detailed operation process of the players.  This was what Jiang Yichen was most interested in. He rested his elbows on the armrests of his seat and watched attentively.  "As the saying goes, laymen look at the excitement, while insiders look at the door.  As expected, these contestants on the stage are all professional chefs, with superb knife skills, fast and accurate techniques, and an extraordinary understanding of various ingredients.  It's obviously the result of years of hard work.  " In comparison, Lao Dou and others from Dingxiangyuan Kitchen and Yunsha Island are indeed more than two levels behind, and can only be regarded as amateurs.  The production process was quite exciting. More than an hour passed without realizing it, and he didn't feel sleepy at all.  The four groups of contestants all completed their works on time. The judges tasted and commented, and the host announced the scores.  Finally, amid the cheers and applause of the audience, the contestants bowed and exited.  The host announced the intermission, and the competition will continue with the next four groups of players half an hour later.  The audience stood up from their seats one after another and left the venue to buy drinks or go to the bathroom.  ¡°Hey, it looks beautiful and smells delicious, but I¡¯m just not happy with my taste.¡± Ma Detao stood up and stretched, expressing his thoughts on the game.  "When you are qualified to be a judge in the future, others will be begging you to eat." Duanyuan said with a smile.  For a moment, he seemed to remember something, turned to Jiang Yichen and said: "Oh, by the way, follow me to the backstage and introduce someone to you." "Who is it?" Jiang Yichen asked in confusion.  "You'll know when you get there." Her belly was round and she squinted her eyes to make it clear.  He left his seat and came to the aisle, turned around and waved to Jiang Yichen and the other two, and then walked towards the side of the stage on his own.  "What are you doing, you are so nagging." Ma Detao was quite dissatisfied.  "Let's go and take a look together." Jiang Yichen felt that his round belly was not a joke, so he followed him.  Led by Du Yuan, the three of them walked along the passage on the side of the stage.  ¡°There¡¯s not even a security guard. The security work here is really lax. If a violent terrorist or something emerges, it will be lively.¡± Ma Detao looked around as he walked.  "Look at what you're thinking, can terrorists be interested in cooking competitions? If it's a popular gorilla concert, it's not far off." Duoyuan retorted.  After a few more steps, you entered the backstage lounge.  There are many people in the lounge, some of whom are chefs wearing white work clothes.  People were sitting or standing, or gathering together in twos and threes to chat.  With a round belly, he narrowed his eyes and scanned the hall, and soon found his target.  "Master Zhao, Master Zhao." He said hello and walked towards a man sitting in the corner on the left with his eyes closed and concentrating.  This is a middle-aged man with a wide face and big ears. His face is red and shiny.  His hands and feet are thick and his body is slightly fat. He looks to be in his forties.  Hearing someone say hello, the man opened his eyes with calm eyes.  ¡°Oh?This is Mr. Du, why are you here?  "He stood up and faced his belly. "Hey, Mr. Sha Du, if you are interested, just call me Xiao Du.  I heard that you made it to the quarterfinals. That's awesome.  "He said carelessly with a round belly. "It's just good luck.  "Master Zhao smiled slightly. "I came here specially to cheer you on today, and I even brought my friends.  hehe.  " He said with a round belly, and at the same time, he moved his body a step to the side, revealing Jiang Yichen and Ma Detao behind him. Next, he made an introduction to both parties. Master Zhao's real name is Zhao Hongsheng, a genuine special three-pole cooking technician, currently working in the city's gold industry  Jiang Yugang Restaurant serves as the chef. In this gourmet cooking competition, he passed all the way and reached the top eight. Today, as a contestant in the second half, he is preparing to compete in the eight-to-four competition. "Master Zhao, my brother's family is a fishery.  , now I want to open a seafood restaurant to produce and sell it by myself.  We just lack decent manpower. Would it be possible if a chef friend could help introduce a few?  "Du Yuanyuan said in a low voice. After hearing this, Master Zhao just said that he could pay attention later to see if there is anything suitable. Jiang Yichen stepped forward, shook hands with Master Zhao, and the two briefly exchanged a few words. "Say no.  Why? Jiang Yichen had a good first impression of the chef in front of him, but since it was the first time they met, he couldn¡¯t say much more. He just wished him good luck in the competition and immediate success. While Master Zhao was chatting with Duanyuan and others, there was a scene in the lounge.  On the other side, a man in his fifties with a long face and triangular eyes, wearing a dark gray striped suit, was watching them closely with a sinister look in his eyes. After a while, Master Zhao's assistant came over.  , saying that the intermission was almost over, the organizing committee asked them to come on stage and prepare. Jiang Yichen and Wei Yuan said goodbye to Master Zhao and said they were waiting to see his wonderful performance. On the way back, Ma Detao said to him.  Yuan said: "Okay, you are quite wild now, and you can still know a few people.  " Round Belly smiled and said that Chef Zhao was introduced to him when he was eating with his father at the beginning of the year. Later, due to work needs, he treated himself to Jinjiang Fishing Port Restaurant a few times.  r1152
