Chapter 1049 Undercurrent
At six o'clock in the morning, Chu Yunfeng, whose biological clock was always on time, woke up. Although the movement was relatively light, it still woke Mu Qing up.

"Are you awake? Then get up. After breakfast, let's check out of the hotel first, and then go back to grandpa's place. My luggage is still there. Say hello and we'll go to the airport!"

The flight is at ten o'clock in the morning, so you don't have to be too anxious, there is still plenty of time.

A shy look appeared on Mu Qing's face. Even though they were an old couple, they were still so shy. Chu Yunfeng smiled, but immediately received a flying pillow, so he stopped teasing her and went to the bathroom. I went to wash up.

After breakfast, the three of them took a taxi to the villa. As soon as they entered the door, their grandma started nagging them.

"This is a rare time when I come back and I don't know where to go home. Young people only know how to play around outside. You can't do this again after you get married."

The chatter went on forever, Chu Yunfeng could only keep nodding, and then agreed. The most depressed person was Mu Qing, who was hiding behind Chu Yunfeng and pinching his waist with her hands. Meat.

Silently chanting in my heart: "It's all your fault, it's all your fault"

Even grandpa couldn't stand grandma's nagging, so he interrupted her: "Okay, okay, they have to catch a flight later, so just stop saying a few words!"

Knowing that Chu Yunfeng and the others still had things to do, grandma took out Chu Yunfeng's luggage with some resentment, and then pulled Mu Qing to chat.

As for the eldest grandson?
Completely ignored!
Chu Yunfeng and Hu Yue sat at the dining table and drank tea with the old man. The old man didn't say anything. He just told Chu Yunfeng to perform well this time. He seemed to be very confident in Chu Yunfeng.

Then he didn't mention other things anymore. The serious old man's aura was still very stressful. Hu Yue couldn't sit or stand, and his buttocks were squirming on the stool.

Chu Yunfeng was used to it, but when he saw that Hu Yue was a little uncomfortable, he gave him some tea and looked towards his grandma.

"What are you looking at? I know you are busy, can't I say a few more words?"

It didn't matter at first glance, but grandma was still angry. It seemed that it was more important for her to talk to Mu Qing, which made Chu Yunfeng feel very innocent.

The old man knew the old lady well and was afraid that she would keep talking, so he interrupted: "Okay, let's wait until they come back. There is a traffic jam on the road right now, so let them leave early!"

Grandma immediately mumbled, as if she was dissatisfied with the old man interrupting her, but she still stood up and sent the three of them to the door.

Seeing that the person was about to leave, grandma's eyes suddenly turned red: "Be careful on the road!

By the way, brat, wait until your mother comes back to discuss the marriage. We can’t delay this matter! "

Mu Qing lowered her head when she heard this. She started to urge marriage again. Oh no, it should be to have a child. It seems that these two elders really want to have a grandson!
Before Chu Yunfeng could reply, the old man nodded and said, "Didn't your dad go over there? The matter over there was settled earlier.

After your mother comes back, we will also go to Rongcheng. It is a good thing that Mu Qing's mother wakes up. We should also go and visit. "

Mu Qing was quite moved by the old man's statement. The two elders seldom moved around, but being able to go to Chengdu in person for this matter showed how much they valued this matter.

Grandma immediately became happy when she saw the old man's statement. Then she had nothing more to say. She had a car ready at the door and told them to hurry up.

After getting in the car, Hu Yue finally let out a sigh of relief. She had been holding back her breath. She didn't know how much invisible pressure she had felt in the past two days.

After Mu Qing got in the car, she snuggled on Chu Yunfeng's shoulder. At this moment, she felt very calm. She didn't want to say or do anything, just like leaning against him.

This most important man in his life not only saved the hotel that was about to sink, but also rescued his weak and helpless mother. Is there anything he can't do?

As if sensing Mu Qing's state of mind, Chu Yunfeng didn't want to say anything more. He held her hand and maintained a warm tranquility all the way to the airport.

After arriving, I discovered that President Hou and the others had already arrived, but only five of the eight seeded players had arrived, and Peng Yue and Wu Junjie were not in the team.

"What about the two of them?"

Chu Yunfeng asked in surprise. There was a traffic jam on the road just now. Logically speaking, they should have arrived before him, right?

President Hou smiled and said: "Peng Yue is with the contestants, and Wu Junjie has to wait for his master, who will arrive one flight later."

So that's it, it looks like everyone will split up when the time comes. After they get there, President Xiong and the others should be with him.

"Everyone is here, let's go through security first!"

With a wave of the president's hand, everyone went over and started queuing up. Everyone seemed to be very excited. This trip was equivalent to a free trip, and they could also have a good experience.

The Hong Kong Global MasterChef International Competition only accepts team entries in the name of catering institutions or catering associations, and does not accept individual chef registrations. Therefore, unless there are special circumstances, everyone cannot experience it.

This time, top chefs from more than 30 countries and more than 40 cities gathered together. It was definitely a culinary feast. As long as there was a chance, who wouldn’t want to go there and learn a lesson?

In particular, some foreign cooking concepts and methods are definitely useful for appreciating exotic customs and learning some foreign cooking methods, which can definitely be used as a reference for your own cooking skills.

This is the first time for many people to go to Hong Kong, and they are still very curious about this city, because there are many unique snacks and meals in its streets and alleys.

Almost all delicacies from around the world can be found in this city, which shows its prosperity.

Special snacks are definitely very attractive to girls, so after getting on the plane, the three women sat together and chatted non-stop.

I don’t know what they are discussing, but they are very energetic!

Chu Yunfeng and Hu Yue were sitting together. The war was about to start, and the two of them had to discuss strategies.

"The schedule has been arranged. The first day is international food, the second day is dim sum, and the third day is Chinese food!"

After getting on the plane just now, President Hou sent everyone the schedule list and other relevant information. This is to familiarize everyone with the rules of this year's competition.

After Hu Yue looked at the list, he immediately gave Chu Yunfeng a reminder.

"These three competitions have set up Global MasterChef Gold, Silver and Bronze Awards. Let’s just accept the gold award. But did you pay attention? In addition to these three competitions, there are four other competitions, which are quite interesting. ah?"

Chu Yunfeng carefully read the list of competition procedures and found that this competition was not as simple as he thought.

Hu Yue also discovered it and said in surprise: "I'll go, it's true, there are four new competitions this year, the Best Presentation Award, the Best Creative Award, the Best Environmental Protection Concept Award and the Global Sword God Competition Award. .

The rules of these four competitions are quite interesting. Anyone who is willing to participate can sign up. All participating chefs are not required to participate. It seems that this is going to get a bit explosive! "

The rules of these four newly opened competitions are not simple. Chu Yunfeng also nodded. The fact that registration is not mandatory actually arouses the interest of those top chefs.

Just imagine who wouldn’t want to go up and show their face?
Anyone who is confident in their culinary skills will go up to the competition, especially those top celebrity chefs. This is a good opportunity to increase their aura!

"It's a good thing, let's make a reservation together. If we get all the awards back, do you think we will be too showy and arrogant?"

Hu Yue glanced at Chu Yunfeng with some contempt. The game hasn't even started yet. Are you so confident that you can win the championship?

And it’s all the awards?

Is this too much confidence?
Although he still has a certain degree of confidence in Chu Yunfeng, Hu Yue did not forget to attack him: "None of the chefs who came to compete this time are that simple. Don't underestimate the enemy."

Underestimate the enemy?
Chu Yunfeng chuckled and said indifferently: "Look at the Best Creative Award, which requires participating chefs to complete a dish within 15 minutes. It shows that whether the chef's cooking ideas are clear is the key to winning the competition.

Is this difficult for me?
As long as you have the ingredients, you can make a dish within 10 minutes, and the remaining 5 minutes are enough for carving. Is it difficult to win the first place?
Also, this sword master competition will definitely test the speed of my knife skills. I have recently made a breakthrough in my knife skills, and I want to show off my skills!

Is it difficult for me?
The appearance award, speaking of engraving, seems to have made breakthroughs recently. Will it be an eye-opener for them then?
Is it difficult for me?
The last remaining award for the best environmental concept is. Although I don’t know how this question will come out, I can now initially integrate the cooking concepts of the eight major cuisines. It is very easy to be environmentally friendly.

Is it difficult for me? "

Chu Yunfeng said "Is it difficult for me" four times in a row, which immediately made Hu Yue speechless. Listening to Chu Yunfeng's relaxed tone, it seemed that all this was not at all for him. It’s not difficult!

Why does this guy want to go against the will of heaven?
Why did you break through as soon as the competition came? When did you break through? How come you didn't notice it?
However, Hu Yue still woke up: "I think we still can't underestimate the enemy. These four events can only be regarded as tacks on. The key is to win those three competitions!"

But you can’t sacrifice the good for the bad! "

Seeing Hu Yue's worry, Chu Yunfeng immediately laughed: "You're right, I'm just interested in the four new events. Don't worry, it won't delay the main business."

Recently, his cooking skills have improved a lot, and with the fusion of eight major cuisines, Chu Yunfeng suddenly felt a lot more proud, so naturally he was full of confidence. It was a rare moment of arrogance, but he didn't expect to be warned by Hu Yue. .

Alas, you will never understand my loneliness.
Next, the two began to discuss the combination of some dishes, time control, etc. In fact, the most important thing was the international cuisine on the first day.

As for the dim sum competition, when Chu Yunfeng showed him the photo of the dish he made in Wanjiacai's kitchen, he immediately shook his head and was speechless.

The championship has been locked in!

The two exquisite pastries in this photo, coupled with the exquisite carving and presentation, are simply dazzling. If they are made in a competition, who can compete?

There is no need to worry about the Chinese food competition. This is Chu Yunfeng's strength. The only thing that needs attention is the additional task, which is to expose the hidden opponent.

In order to test the opponent's skills and see if we can find some clues, we can provide some clues and help for the subsequent battle.

So while discussing some details of cooking with Hu Yue, I was also thinking about how to expose some of the opponent's trump cards?

There is another question. There are also many chefs coming from the island country this time. It is said that there are also three cities, so there are six chefs participating in the competition.

Are all these six people working with Masaichi Yamada, or are there just one or two of them? You need to judge for yourself, so this mission is not that simple.

Just when Chu Yunfeng felt that this matter was more difficult, God seemed to be favoring him. Not long after he got off the plane, he immediately saw an acquaintance.

President Hou's eyes also shrank instantly, staring at the few people in front of him who were about to walk out of the airport gate.

The leader is naturally Yamada Shoichi, followed by Fujiwara Saburo, Fujiwara Sukeka and Koyamauchi Jiro, all of whom are old acquaintances.

But this is not important. There are two unfamiliar faces walking at the end, a man and a woman, who look very young, at least younger than Fujiwara Saka and Koyamauchi Jiro.

The faces of these two people were full of arrogance. Although they were walking at the back, they were obviously much more powerful than the people in front.

Seeing President Hou stop, the others felt a little strange, but Hu Yue immediately asked: "Are those two at the back the ones we are looking for?"

Chu Yunfeng nodded and said: "The great nine are inseparable from the ten, it should be them."

These words immediately made everyone wake up, especially when they saw the clothes and walking postures of these people, they immediately judged their nationalities.

So now I understand that I met the real owner at the airport?
Peng Yue sneered: "You are quite arrogant. You are not afraid of being exposed at all. Are you so awesome?"

The rest of the people were also emotional, but Peng Yue's reminder made President Hou alert immediately. What he said made sense. The other party was so blatant, there were only two possibilities.

The first is that we don't know that we have discovered their hidden strength, so we are unprepared.

The second is to ignore the situation when you know that you already know it.

If it is the second possibility, then this matter is really a bit tricky, which means that the other party is confident of winning. Is this possible?
President Hou suddenly had a bad feeling. Could he be underestimating the enemy?

No, this time we must figure out the opponent's layout and strength, otherwise we won't know why we failed, which would be a shame in the culinary world.

But this is not a good place to talk. President Hou's face was a little gloomy and he said in a deep voice: "Let's go, let's go to the arranged hotel to stay."

Everyone also saw the solemnity on President Hou's face, and thought of some deep-seated issues, so they all fell silent and followed President Hou out.

We had made arrangements in advance, so as soon as we came out, we were taken to the prepared bus by the people who greeted us and drove directly to the hotel.

Everyone was in a mixed mood and didn't have much thought about the scenery outside the window. They just waited to get to the hotel to see if they could discuss some countermeasures.
