Chapter 1030 Is this a joke?
Modify the rules?

Everyone's expressions became serious. It seems that the other party is not only prepared, but also has the idea of ​​winning?

Minister Wang's face was the most gloomy: "This is the most top-level competition, can the rules be changed if it wants to?"

The rest of the people nodded in agreement. After all, this is the world's top culinary event held every four years, and only national teams can participate.

But President Hou's expression was more serious: "It is said that they have attracted a lot of people this time, and they have made good excuses to give young people a chance to show themselves."

Section Chief Yu was also filled with righteous indignation: "It's nice to say, but this rule can't be changed if it wants to. Is there any hope of success?"

Everyone focused their attention on President Hou, and he sighed helplessly and said: "This is the trick. It is not to modify the previous process, but to propose the addition of a youth team. This time Do you understand?"

hiss~!

Come on, these perverted guys really know how to play?

If we just add one more participating team, the difficulty will be much easier. After all, some middle-aged chefs will not give up on this four-year competition.

If these people object, this proposal will definitely not be passed, but adding a new competition team can set up separate events to make the competition more interesting.

And some young chefs who are supported by chefs will have the opportunity to show themselves, and everyone can communicate with each other. In this way, they will definitely gain the support of many people.

So the atmosphere at this time became a little tense, everyone was thinking about countermeasures, and when the President Hou heard the news for the first time, he almost didn't scold her.

This is so damn calculating. Besides engaging in conspiracy and shady things, can these little devils do anything serious?

And underneath this cloak of ulterior motives, who would have thought that it was actually targeting the Chinese catering industry?
The resentment on Minister Wang's face was very strong, and he snorted heavily: "Wolves are ambitious, it seems that they want to use Chinese dishes to defeat us in this competition.

If this happens, the Chinese culinary industry will be completely disgraced. The cooking skills inherited from our country are not as good as those of a remote island country. Isn't this an international joke? "

This is indeed a big crisis before us. At the age of Ji Lao and Liu Lao, but having experienced the war-torn years, they have more feelings about this kind of thing.

Ji Lao continued to ask: "Are the players trained by the other party really that strong?"

Before the president could reply, Mr. Liu asked again: "Is it true that he has cultivated the seed contestants of the eight major cuisines?"

Faced with the problem of the two elders, President Hou said categorically: "According to the tip, it should be true, otherwise they wouldn't have done so many things deliberately.

The most dangerous thing now is that the other party may have mastered many lost dishes from the eight major cuisines. If the other party makes them during the competition and we don't know how to make them, this will be the biggest trouble.

And if we lose to them even in the cooking competition, then for our Chinese catering industry, this will not only be an issue of international embarrassment. "

The atmosphere was as solemn as ever. The crisis was already in front of us. There was no way to take advantage of it. We could only attack it head on. As soon as it emerged, fight him back.

So Minister Wang made the final decision: "I will report this matter to the superiors. The top priority is to improve the cooking skills of us seed contestants as soon as possible and let the master chefs pay more attention.

Secondly, you need to find out the opponent's strength and whether they really master some exquisite lost dishes.

Finally, mobilize manpower and material resources to find experts hidden among the people. Maybe they can cook some lost dishes, and there are some recipes passed down from home.

If we have the recipes and the combined efforts of all the master chefs, we will probably be able to recreate some of the dishes. Anyway, let’s make some preparations first.

This time, we must teach them a hard lesson and teach them how to behave. "

Everyone nodded, and they had to prepare quickly, but Minister Wang suddenly thought that President Hou came here to specifically mention the matter of Chu Yunfeng.

The impression on Chu Yunfeng was quite profound, and the last time he came to the kitchen, it was an eye-opener for him!
With his superhuman photographic memory, especially the ability to restore dishes he has seen once before like a repeater, maybe he can turn the tide in this international competition!

However, Chu Yunfeng's special abilities are only known to President Hou and himself, and this is a top secret.

And his desire to hide his identity allowed me to see his humble side. Such a young man is indeed worth cultivating!

After thinking for a while, Minister Wang said: "Let me inform all the master chefs that we will all gather in the kitchen at two o'clock in the afternoon. Let's have a short meeting!"

Mr. Ji and Mr. Liu immediately nodded in agreement and started to make phone calls, while Minister Wang pulled President Hou aside.

Section Chief Yu looked at the two of them with melancholy eyes. I know so much about this, why can't I satisfy my curiosity a little more?
Forget it, forget it, be content, don’t know what you shouldn’t know
"How much do you know about Xiao Chu's ability?"

Minister Wang's words were filled with a hint of solemnity, but more importantly, they were filled with deep curiosity.

President Hou carefully thought about what Minister Wang meant by saying this, guessing that he wanted to know the purpose of this matter, but after thinking about it, he couldn't figure it out.

However, President Hou immediately answered: "From the time I met him so far, I haven't found a single mistake."

This meaning has been made very clear, that is, as long as Chu Yunfeng has seen the dishes once, he can make them. This instantly stunned Minister Wang.

I originally thought that President Hou's previous report was a bit exaggerated, but now it seems that Chu Yunfeng's ability should be quite good.

After all, he was one of the witnesses, so it would be fine to say that he was proficient in Sichuan cuisine, but the rest of the cuisine in the kitchen that day were all specialty dishes.

Moreover, the master chef does it randomly, so Chu Yunfeng cannot prepare in advance!
If his talent is really that good, then he must be trained well this time. Since he learns food so quickly, let him see it all at once! ! !

But before that, after this training, I still need to test it again. If it is really that good, I can master all the dishes made by the masters.

Then don't blame yourself for making the "big move".
Having made the decision, Minister Wang then casually chatted with President Hou for a few words, and then stayed in the kitchen, letting the master cook a few dishes for lunch, and waited for the afternoon meeting.

Two in the afternoon!

All the state banquet chefs in the back kitchen were here. After receiving calls from Mr. Ji and Mr. Liu, I heard that Minister Wang was waiting for everyone in the back kitchen. This made people feel that something big was about to happen!
Normally, Minister Wang would come over after the notice was given because he was busy with work. Why would he sit here and wait like this?
So everyone was a little ahead of schedule, and they were all trying to find out what important things happened today.

But after asking around, no one knew about it, so they all became surprised.

And after arriving in the kitchen, especially when they saw the serious expressions of Mr. Ji and Mr. Liu, everyone knew that today's meeting would definitely not be that simple!
Seeing that everyone was here, Minister Wang coughed twice on the rostrum of the small conference hall, and the scene instantly became quiet.

"I called everyone together for a meeting today, mainly for two things.

The first is to start a three-day training tomorrow. Didn’t we select eight outstanding young people from the eight major cuisines to come and experience the kitchen this time?

This will be of great help to improve the vision and knowledge of young people, so I would like to ask all the masters to give them some guidance.

In addition to the eight designated masters, the rest of the masters can also show their skills at the scene. After all, we all come from young people, and we all have experiences with young people's eagerness to learn.

What they lack is experience, so the master chefs can explain more about their cooking skills to them, and also save them from taking some detours. What do you think? "

After Minister Wang finished speaking, the scene was still quiet, and many people glanced at each other, some of them didn't understand why Minister Wang specifically mentioned this matter?

They are just a few young people. Do they take it so seriously?

There is no problem in giving them training. Eight masters have been designated before, but why do we need to ask other masters to participate?

Is it a little too formal?

After all, he is still a young man in his 20s. No matter how good his culinary skills are, there is a limit.
So immediately some masters raised their hands, and Minister Wang immediately reached out and asked: "Master Qian, please tell me!"

This fat chef Qian is an Anhui cuisine chef. He immediately said: "I don't think it's necessary. There are already eight chefs involved. They are all young people. Can't they bite off more than they can chew?"

Yes!

There is some truth to this!

The masters sitting below all nodded, agreeing with Master Qian's point of view. It seemed that everyone was somewhat disapproving of these eight newcomers.

Minister Wang was noncommittal about Master Qian's expression. Seeing Master Zheng raise his hand again, he called Master Zheng to speak.

Master Zheng is a Cantonese cuisine chef. He also agreed with Master Qian’s point of view, so he frowned and said, “Although I don’t know who these eight young people are, as I said before, most of them are only in their 20s.

To be honest, I am worried about what they can learn in the kitchen. After all, they are too young, so there is no problem in gaining experience, but it is only three days.

Haha, I really don’t believe how much they can learn, so is it necessary for so many masters to teach them? "

Master Zheng's words touched everyone's hearts, and the masters all started whispering.

"That's right. When I was in my 20s, I was still working as a boss. I couldn't even cut vegetables well, and I had no foundation for learning other things!"

"That's not true. I think back when I just entered the industry, my master already told me to help cook for five years, and then he slowly started to teach me cooking skills. Later I realized that I had to lay the foundation first."

"Could these eight people be some kind of people who came here to get gold plating?"

"That's a bit too much. You can just do the gold plating. Why do you have to bother us?"

"If I see any little guy that doesn't like his eyes, see if I can give him eye drops."

Speculations on the scene began to develop in the opposite direction. These eight seeded players have been deemed by the masters to be showy and fake.

There are only two chefs who really know their identities, namely Mr. Ji and Mr. Liu, and Minister Wang did not announce the list of these eight young people at the beginning, so it is inevitable that people will misunderstand.

It was originally planned to be announced at this time today, but I didn't expect that the masters would have some resistance, but this was all expected.

After all, these are master-level existences, and anyone who goes out casually will be sought after. If they want to hang around a few young people, they will naturally have some opinions.

After seeing that the fire was almost done, Minister Wang calmed everyone down: "It seems that everyone doesn't know much about us eight young people.

So let me first talk about the names of these eight young people. Maybe you have heard of them? "

name?

What's so good about that?

Even if I know them, it seems that among the younger generation, there is no one who is particularly outstanding. What is there to say solemnly?

Seeing the indifferent attitude of all the masters, President Hou almost burst into laughter. It seemed that Minister Wang was digging a hole very hard!

The corners of the mouths of Mr. Ji and Mr. Liu also moved unnoticed. They felt sympathy for these masters. They had just questioned the courage of others.

After falling into Minister Wang's trap, his face was slapped so hard that he would be embarrassed not to show his hands at that time. What a brilliant move!
The master chefs listened indifferently as Minister Wang began to read: "Peng Yue, Lu Cai!

Wu Junjie, Cantonese cuisine!

Song Shaochen, Fujian cuisine!
Beibei, Hunan cuisine!
Ren Tingting, Zhejiang cuisine!

Pan Liang, Su Cai!
Liang Yihai, Anhui cuisine!

Sichuan cuisine, Chu Yunfeng! "

When they heard the first name, many masters glanced at Ji Lao. After all, the name Peng Yue was still somewhat familiar.

As the chef of the Capital Hotel, many people have heard of Peng Yue, but their level as a chef is not very clear.

For the next six names, everyone looked confused, but when it came to the last name, all the masters had weird looks on their faces.

If someone drinks tea at this time, they might spit out a mouthful of old tea.

Chu Yunfeng?
What plane are you doing?
Are you kidding me?
Isn't he an official member of our kitchen?
How could such a fierce little guy suddenly transform into a young student?

So after Minister Wang just announced the list, almost all the masters raised their hands
Minister Wang continued to count Master Qian, which excited him so much that his fat body even stood up and asked: "Isn't this Xiao Chu one of us?

How can he be considered a young student? "

Yes!

Yup!

These two words of interjection came and went, expressing the deep questions in my heart.

However, Minister Wang did not have the snickering expressions on the faces of Mr. Ji, Mr. Liu and President Hou. Instead, he said seriously and without missing a beat: "This is the second important thing I want to say today."
