After traveling through time, the restaurant I opened became a big hit

Chapter 40 Audition site

The 22nd day of the first lunar month is the day when the auditions for "The King of Chefs" officially begin.

The audition site was located at the Youth Square in City A, not too far from Jiang Li.

The auditions started at ten o'clock in the morning. In order to arrive early, Jiang Li got up early.

Unexpectedly, when we arrived at the scene, Youth Square was already blocked by crowds.

Everyone who registers for the audition must collect a number plate at the designated location.

Jiang Li also received one, and the number was quite auspicious, 566.

In addition to chefs, there are also many internet hosts participating in the "Chef Contest".

They did not participate in the competition to win a ranking, but simply wanted to take advantage of Choi Jong-ri's popularity.

After all, the show has been warming up since the beginning of the year, and its popularity has remained high until now.

This resulted in a place as large as Youth Square being packed with people and the sound of the live broadcast could be heard everywhere.

Jiang Li didn't like to join in the fun, so he could only find a small corner in the square and sit down for a while.

In addition to the internet celebrities participating in the competition who are broadcasting live, there are also many entertainment marketing accounts that are broadcasting live the auditions.

Many chefs who participated in the show were stopped on the spot and forced to be interviewed.

"Chef Hu, is the beef rice in your restaurant really a pre-made dish? The beef is not fresh, and the pork is mixed with water, right?"

"Hello, Chef Zhang. My fans and friends are all wondering if the starch sausage in your store is really made from a mixture of chicken and chicken bone paste?"

"Master Han, may I ask if you change the expiration dates of the ingredients in your store at will? Do you just taste them to see if they are expired?"

Questions were asked one after another, and the chef's face became darker and darker.

I wanted to get angry, but because the camera was right in front of me, I forced a smile and chose to endure it.

In order to attract attention and traffic, all kinds of weird questions keep popping up.

"What the hell are these media? Why do they keep asking such boring questions?"

"Yeah, we shouldn't let them in and affect the atmosphere."

Jiang Li heard many chefs complaining, and it was obvious that they were all businesses with food safety issues.

He couldn't hide his guilty expression, and the harsher he cursed, the more guilty he felt.

This scene lasted for only about ten minutes, and suddenly there were exclamations coming from the entrance.

At the same time, the entrance was also surrounded by people.

[Ding, the male protagonist has appeared. ]

Jiang Li stood up. He was indeed the male lead. His appearance alone was stunning enough.

As the son of destiny of this small world, Chu Shaocheng seems to have walked out of a comic book, handsome and yet steady.

He was wearing a neat chef's uniform, the white corners of his clothes swaying gently with his steps, as if he had his own style.

His face was clearly defined and as delicate as a sculpture, with sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, revealing a heroic air.

There is purple air surrounding him, appearing and disappearing.

"What is this purple air and why can I see it?" Jiang Li asked the system silently in his heart.

[This is the hero's luck. When his luck completely dissipates, he will no longer be the hero.]

So that’s how it is. She had never seen this on Lin Ruxin before. Could it be that she is not actually the heroine?
Jiang Li asked a few more questions, but the system seemed to not exist and did not give any response.

She had no choice but to give up. Well, it seemed like she had asked about secrets again.

After Chu Shaocheng entered the venue, the host also came and directed everyone to stand in a neat line. He was about to announce the audition rules.

Jiang Li stood at the back, and the front was all white, all the chefs were dressed neatly. Most of the chefs liked to wear white chef uniforms.

Because white is the cleanest color and it can get dirty easily if you are not careful.

Therefore, it can most directly reflect whether the chef and his kitchen are clean and tidy, and what the hygiene is like.

As for Jiang Li, he was wearing an ordinary white short-sleeved shirt and black pants.

Apart from that exquisite face, there is basically nothing noticeable about her.

But chefs are not stars, and you can’t be hired just because you look good. What matters is that the food they cook is delicious.

So their eyes stayed on Jiang Li for a moment and quickly moved away. He didn't seem to be anything to be feared.

Instead, a lot of attention was focused on Chu Shaocheng, as he was a popular contestant in this "Chef Contest".

He comes from a long-standing family of royal chefs, and his family has been cooking delicacies for the royal family and the nobility for generations.

Chu Shaocheng has been exposed to cooking skills since he was a child under the influence of his family.

He has his own unique insights and talents in selecting ingredients, cooking temperature, and pairing dishes.

He showed his talents when he was young and became famous in the catering industry for a while.

Now that he's grown up, he's an even more formidable rival.

As it approached noon, the chefs took their seats one after another and the audition rules were about to be announced.

The host walked to the front stage and tried the microphone.

"Everyone please be quiet."

"First of all, thank you all for participating in the auditions for the "Chef Contest". This program is exclusively sponsored by xx Group and xx Company."

By the time the host introduced himself and thanked the sponsors, more than half an hour had passed.

No matter what the occasion, an opening like this always sounds boring and makes people sleepy.

Fortunately, it was over quickly and it was finally time to introduce the rules.

"Next, please let me introduce the rules of the audition to everyone."

"The audition will last for one week, and the chefs will sell their own food at roadside stalls in the following week."

After hearing the rules, many absent-minded chefs sat up straight with serious expressions on their faces.

"The program team set up exclusive payment codes for all participating chefs, and the top 20 chefs were selected."

As soon as the rules were announced, there was a sigh at the scene.

Even if there are not thousands of chefs here, there must be at least three or four hundred.

So now, out of three or four hundred people, only 20 people are selected? This is simply a huge army crossing a single-plank bridge.

At this time, a chef stood up and asked a question.

"Excuse me, has the location for the stall been arranged?"

The host nodded, and then the staff took a large box and walked onto the stage.

"Next, please invite all chefs to come on stage in the order of their seats and draw your lucky number."

“After you draw your lucky number, you can check the location of your stall on the official mini app.”

"After arriving at the stall location, please operate within the specified area."

"Our production staff will follow up the entire process. Of course, you can choose to give up at any time during these seven days."

The first person to go up and draw the lottery was naturally our male protagonist Chu Shaocheng.
