Chapter 1429 Magical ingredients from China

The little "friction" between Chu Yunfeng and Yamada Shoichi was naturally noticed by Hoffman and other judges. Although they didn't understand what they were saying, they felt strange in their hearts.

The Chinese of these Japanese players is so good, and it seems that they have a lot of conflicts with the Huaxia team, and it doesn't seem like a new friction, it seems like a long-standing grudge.

Chairman Crystal was also muttering in his heart after seeing this scene, and he had foreseen the occurrence of this kind of thing.

After all, the revision of the organizing committee's charter this time was promoted by the Japanese side, and it was relatively active. It happened to catch up with the momentum of the organizing committee's reform, so the proposal was quickly passed.

Now it seems that they are targeting the Chinese team. It is normal for the Chinese team to have some changes, but it seems that both sides are relatively restrained, as long as they do not violate the rules of the competition.

This is also a good thing. The stronger the friction between the two sides, the more intense the competition may be. I am also looking forward to the follow-up performance of the Huaxia team.

Their captain is definitely a magical chef who should not be underestimated. What his friends in Hong Kong told him was absolutely true, but now it seems a little too reserved. He is obviously a tiger, but what he told him is a lamb.

Haha, lambs, the Chinese team doesn’t look like lambs!

Crystal smiled silently and walked towards the Chinese team's booth with great interest. The works of Auguste and Diadona were so attractive that he had to take a good look at them.

But what Crystal never expected was that what he thought was a small friction at the moment, in the last game, the intense scene that occurred was completely beyond his expectations, and even made him lifelong memorable
I have to say that Yamada Shoichi is still very talented. The wagashi he makes is indeed exquisite, and molecular cuisine is actually used in it. The technique is simply impeccable.

This made many judges give very high evaluations, but when everyone wanted to taste it, they encountered resistance, and this resistance came from August!
For the first time, Auguste picked up and weighed every work made by Yamada Shoichi. This move naturally made everyone criticize him!

"August, do you have obsessive-compulsive disorder? Wouldn't it be better to do random tests? You are wasting time!"

"What about your special skill? Isn't it that you can accurately judge? Why do you need to weigh each one?"

"God, why is Ni the one who interrupts the best experience every time, are you the devil?"

Faced with everyone's complaints, August remained unmoved. Instead, he replied with contempt: "The weighing is not for myself, but for you to see."

uh~?

and many more!

What does he mean by this, what is for us?

Seeing that everyone still didn't quite understand what he meant, August immediately started to add more damage: "I can definitely judge the weight accurately, but can you?

Let me tell you the truth, there are a total of [-] works, only one of which has a different grammage, so I will show you by weighing it, and let you know that even if there is a slight flaw, it is still a flaw! "

I have to say that August is indeed very old-fashioned, but this rigorous old-fashionedness is engraved in the bones of the German people. It is also no wonder that everyone praises Yamada Shoichi's works too much.

It seemed that the works he produced were invincible, which made August feel a little disgusted, especially among the judges, Kenichi Maeyamada, who was the first to advocate it.

It is obviously against the ethics of judging to promote the works of members of one's own country, but there are no regulations in the rules, so there is no way to control him.

But as a meticulous Auguste, he must have his own sense of identity with the best work in this competition, and no one can refute it.

And from my own professional point of view, the perfection of that work is simply exemplary. Even after so many competitions, no one has been able to surpass it.

Although the work of the captain of the Japanese team is indeed amazing, the production method uses many extraordinary skills, and it looks quite good.

But flaws are flaws, and I don’t want to see such a flawed work win first place. That would be an insult to my status as a judge!
Naturally, the judges who were criticized were not happy and immediately began to rebut!

"August, you are too picky. Where can any work be so perfect?"

"God, are you kidding? There is only a difference of 1 gram between the two items. Do you think you are a precision instrument?"

"Is it necessary to be so fussy about the allowable error range? Will our evaluation standards be changed to based on weight in the future?"

I have to say that these judges are still very vocal, and what they said in reply was very reasonable, which made Diadona feel a little embarrassed, but he still tried his best to maintain August's persistence.

"It's normal for everyone to have different judgment perspectives, but they must be persistent and fair. I don't think it will affect the final fair judgment. Does anyone think this is a problem?"

Diadona once again stood on August's side, which still made some judges unhappy, especially Kenichi Mae Yamada, whose face was so gloomy that he could drip water.

The helpless judges could only wait patiently for August to weigh one by one and record the weighing data of these wagashi.

After weighing 17 of them, it was found that all of them weighed 18 grams, which was very accurate, which made everyone nod and many audiences around began to applaud.

It was the first time I saw a contestant who could hold the weight so perfectly, and there was only one left. At this time, Yamada Shoichi was enjoying the praises from around him. When he looked towards Chu Yunfeng, his eyes naturally twinkled. A trace of disdain passed.

There is definitely no problem with the weight of the last one. I am very good at making this kind of dessert, and the difference in weight will not appear in my hands.

As for August's so-called difference of 1 gram, it is probably due to his own hallucination. Although I also admire his sensitivity to weight, it is normal for errors to occur.

How can ordinary people be so precise?
But when the last wagashi was placed on the scale, these relatively leisurely judges suddenly widened their eyes, blinked hard, and looked at the number displayed above with some disbelief.

17 grams!
Wait, how come it's 17 grams, why not 18 grams?
The audience at the scene also sighed, and everyone's eyes on August changed a little, and they began to respect him.

This judge's vision is a bit too sharp. He can detect even such a slight error. Does he have special powers?

Yamada Shoichi himself was a little dumbfounded. He couldn't believe that he had made such a slight error, and his mood suddenly became complicated.

In order to create the best effect in the final battle, the current Japanese team adopts the strategy of keeping a low profile, which is to let the Chinese team steal the show and wait until the last moment to deliver a fatal blow to them.

In this way, driving them from the peak into the abyss can achieve twice the result with half the effort. At that time, they can completely get rid of the bad breath in their hearts.

But even so, Yamada Shoichi still feels uncomfortable. He himself feels that his cooking skills are at least one level higher than Chu Yunfeng. Now seeing him jumping so happily, his self-esteem is still a little unbearable!
Whoo~!

After taking a deep breath, Yamada Shoichi immediately began to disguise his true feelings: "I am very grateful to the judges for their fairness and strictness. I will continue to work hard!"

After he finished speaking, he immediately bowed, showing that he was very humble, but when Chu Yunfeng saw him from a distance, he curled his lips and snorted coldly.

He really knows how to put on a show, but after a while he realizes that he doesn’t even have the slightest error. Will he be furious?

Good guy, the second game is still hiding the true strength. If you want to be a turtle, just be a turtle. When the last game comes, let's see who surprises whom, hehe.
As the weight data came out, the other judges frowned. One judge didn't seem to believe it and tried it himself.

He took off the dessert on the scale, then picked up the previous dessert and put it on the scale. The data immediately appeared - 18 grams.

There was no problem with the scale. The judge immediately put back the wagashi that had just been weighed at 17 grams, and the scale also gave the same data as before.

17 grams!
The judge still seemed a little unwilling to give up. He picked up the wagashi again. When he saw that the data on the scale had returned to zero, he put it up again.

Still 17 grams!
There was no change at all, which made the judge bite his head and glance at August. You can imagine the depression in his heart.

August didn't seem to be affected in any way. He recorded his own score on his scoreboard, and then started to check the works of the other team members.

Of course, the scores given by the other judges were full marks. Everyone thought that such a small flaw did not matter at all, but August had his own persistence, so the score naturally could not be full marks.

And Diadona's score is the same as Auguste's, not full marks, just deducted a little bit, and judging from the current judges' scores, Yamada Masaichi's work is definitely No.1.

After the judges left, Yamada Shoichi's smile subsided and he pretended to be anxious and walked to the bathroom.

From the beginning of the morning's game, he seemed to have underestimated Chu Yunfeng's strength. The easy confidence Chu Yunfeng showed this morning confused him a lot.

This also made me a little unsure about how to control my strength. I originally planned to win the championship in the first game. I wanted to get off to a good start and put some pressure on the Chinese team to see if they could expose more. come out.

But who would have thought that after suppressing his performance, Chu Yunfeng's side would actually win first place, so he had to change his strategy and put the Huaxia team on the altar.

As for the dessert competition in the afternoon, I was still a little bit upset about the loss in the morning, so I slightly improved my strength to see if Chu Yunfeng was also hiding his true strength.

However, what surprised me was that Chu Yunfeng took an unusual approach to making desserts. These foreigners didn't know, so how could he not know the truth about these street snacks?

It was definitely Chinese street food, and it was not elegant at all. It was obviously suspected of being deceptive, but the final result surprised me.

Chu Yunfeng actually made the grade of the ingredients so high that these ingredients merchants couldn't hold back. Moreover, how can such creative Chinese desserts be combined with the randomness of street snacks?

In addition, he was teased by Chu Yunfeng again just now, and the judges came to make up for it again. This greatly provoked Yamada Shoichi's self-esteem. If he was still standing there, he might not be able to control it. .

We have to teach the Chinese team a lesson, especially Chu Yunfeng. Although he was too proud in the past and it would be more satisfying to fall from the peak in the end, if he is completely defeated in the next game, will he be able to do it in advance? Destroy their morale.

Especially I really want to see him in such a mournful state, the next game is a cold dish, so let yourself design it well and give him a big surprise!
Don’t you choose your ingredients well?

Would you be surprised if you found out that the ingredients you chose were not very good?
Smiling evilly all the way, Yamada Shoichi suddenly thought of a brilliant idea, and his mood suddenly improved. When he came back, he saw that the judges had already walked towards the Chinese team's booth.

"Haha, you still look so calm, but I really don't believe you can achieve perfection like me. Although there are a few flaws, it's hard to say who will win in this game!
I do think you can win this game, so I’d love to see your wonderful expression in the next game, haha.”

However, what depressed Yamada Masaichi was that when the judges passed by the Chinese team's booth, they did not stop and went directly to the next national team's booth, obviously to put the Chinese team's last.

This is usually the treatment given to the king, which immediately made the German and British teams feel a little bit hungry, and then everyone rushed to the booth of the Huaxia team, wanting to see what is so special .

To be honest, these old European teams really didn't think highly of Huaxia's game, even Chu Yunfeng and his side attracted many spectators and judges.

In addition to the unparalleled fragrance, the selection of ingredients does not account for a high score. The judges' evaluation of the ingredients is only based on whether they are suitable for production.

As for the quality of ingredients, there is no relevant scoring standard.

So what is the mystery behind the incomprehensible desserts from the Chinese team?
In fact, at the beginning of the game, everyone rushed to see the dishes produced by each restaurant. However, after just one glance at the Chinese team's work, everyone lost interest.

It is difficult for such works that go against convention to win awards. Chinese desserts are not mainstream at all, so everyone despises them.

But after the judges made such a fuss, how could the players of these national teams be able to hold back, especially the captains, who were carefully observing the desserts made by Chu Yunfeng.

But no matter how you look at it, these desserts seem to be very different from the conventional European dessert making methods, especially the steamed cake, which is definitely not made from flour.

Everyone is right about this point, because no matter how you look at it, you can’t tell the state of the flour of steamed cakes. Everyone is a master at making pastries and desserts. Everyone is very familiar with the state of flour production.

Some captains who had a good relationship with Chu Yunfeng chatted with him directly, and only then did they realize that this dim sum was made of glutinous rice, and everyone immediately called it amazing.

It's actually made of rice. Many foreigners can't tell what is glutinous rice and what is rice, but they really don't know how to make snacks made from rice.

Chu Yunfeng also revealed the source of the ingredients for the other two works to the curious captains, which made them say it was impossible and incredible.

That thing called ice powder is actually made by "washing" seeds. Is there any more magical product in China?
Soon, when the judges turned around and came to the Chinese team's booth, the players of these old and powerful teams all fixed their eyes on August, because he started to operate his old business immediately again!
