Gourmet conquest starts from the entertainment industry

The preparations for the restaurant are proceeding in an orderly manner. With the efforts of Ling Zihan, the recruitment and training of all employees has gradually come to an end.

Zhou Mochen was also fully preparing for the provincial promotion competition during this period. Although he has confidence in himself, he still strengthened his basic training. The lion fights the rabbit with all his strength. This is his life principle.

Monday, August 15th, sunny.

"Master, have you packed everything?" Jiang Yingying checked Zhou Mochen's knife box again. Jiang Yingying was even more nervous than Zhou Mochen in this competition. She hoped that the master would not have any problems this time. She couldn't do anything else, so she could only check the details again and again. to hide my nervousness.

"Relax, it's Master's competition, not you." Zhou Mochen could see her nervousness. So comforted.

"I hope Master wins the championship. I don't know what's going on with these people. They don't think highly of Master. The top three seeded players don't even have you. It's too damning. What's so great about people from aristocratic families. My master is the best , the most powerful." Jiang Yingying saw the estimated ranking of the players on the official website, Zhou Mochen was not a seed player, and he could only rank ninth among the 24 contestants. Basically hopeless. It can also be seen from this that Zhou Mochen is still not well-known in the entire Suzhou Province.

"It doesn't matter, just knock them down." Zhou Mochen has always sneered at this kind of ranking, and it's not a beauty pageant, but a poll. If there is a beauty pageant, Zhou Mochen may not be able to enter the top three.

"Then master, please cheer. We are all cheering for master on the spot." Jiang Yingying laughed when she heard Zhou Mochen's words. In her heart, as long as Zhou Mochen said it, it would definitely be achieved.

"Yingying, you came so early. You didn't call me. Good morning, brother Mochen." Murong Ruoxue opened the door and walked into the living room to see the master and apprentice still having breakfast. So he said.

"Hee hee, I'm here for breakfast, the pan-fried buns made by master are delicious." Jiang Yingying said with a bun in her arms.

"Morning. There is still porridge in the kitchen, go serve it yourself." Zhou Mochen greeted the person who came.

"Yeah, that's cool. Haha, there's a new product. Then I want to try it." After speaking, he turned and ran to the kitchen.

Su Qian and the others came one after another, and they were all used to it, coming to Zhou Mochen for breakfast from time to time. But when you come, you will basically be informed in advance, otherwise it would be embarrassing to have nothing to eat.

At the same time, they were also shocked by Zhou Mochen's breakfast method. The variety of breakfast made them enjoy themselves. Completely refreshed their understanding of breakfast. I have eaten what I haven't eaten, and sometimes I feel that Zhou Mochen knows a lot. What kind of master taught me so young, and I also admire Zhou Mochen's almighty master.

After everyone had a delicious breakfast, the ladies also consciously cleaned up the mess.

"Let's go, it's time to go." After Zhou Mochen finished speaking, he carried the knife box and led everyone out.

"Old Zhou, did you buy a car?" Yang Shao asked when he saw Zhou Mochen open the door next to him.

"Well, I bought it some time ago, and I haven't driven it much." Zhou Mochen said after putting away his things and closing the car door.

"This model is very suitable for you, Lao Zhou, why don't you just tell me when you buy a car, look for me." Liu Xing said looking at Zhou Mochen's car.

"I just thought about buying it temporarily, so I didn't say anything, and it's not an expensive model, so I didn't mention it to you." Zhou Mochen explained.

"This car is fine. After the race, give it to me. I'll do some basic modifications for you, so that you can drive more comfortably." Liu Xing said.

"Okay, let's go. Now go to the venue." Zhou Mochen immediately agreed.

Everyone drove to the competition venue.

The venue is also the venue for the qualifiers. Sioux City is the capital city of the province, so the provincial promotion competition was still held in Sioux City, which also gave Zhou Mochen great convenience. No running back and forth.

Of course, the auditorium is a little more than the previous qualifiers, 1200 seats, and there are no seats.

"Dear judges, 24 contestants and 1,200 audience friends from all over the scene, good morning everyone, I now announce that this provincial promotion competition will start now, and 24 contestants will be invited to the stage." Still a famous host Tong Ziyu.

Players come to their consoles according to their ranking numbers. Zhou Mochen No. 9.

"Please allow me to solemnly introduce the judges of this competition, namely, Master Fang Yuefeng Fang of Dragon Fish Restaurant, Master Wu Manjiang Wu of Zhenwei Restaurant, Master Meng Qiujun Meng of Fuwei Restaurant, and Ye Fanglin, President of Yan Province Culinary Arts Association .” Tong Ziyu solemnly introduced the four judges.

After the joint decision of the association, the provincial promotion competition directly adopts the method of live broadcast, so that the probability of cheating under the eyes of the audience is minimized.

After half a month of publicity, the audience in the live broadcast room of the competition has reached 2 million. In this way, there are still a lot of foodies. After all, only delicious food can't live up to it.

"I'm so excited, it's about to start, haha."

"Shut up for the organizing committee of the competition, keep pace with the times, live broadcasting is okay."

"Yeah, there are too few tickets at the scene. They will be sold out in a second."

"Look, look, there is a little brother who looks really good-looking."

"Tch, what's the use of looking good. This is a cooking competition, not a beauty pageant."

"Haha, you must be jealous. But he's so young."

"I want his information. Such a little brother is too eye-catching. Being able to enter the provincial promotion competition shows that his skills are also good."

"."

The audience's comments in the live broadcast room were extremely lively.

"Now I announce that the provincial promotion competition of the National Youth Cooking Competition is now starting. We have invited Ms. Ye Fanglin, the president of the Yan Provincial Culinary Association, to draw the first competition item. Please." Tong Ziyu announced the start of the competition, and also invited Ye Fanglin came to the stage to draw items.

After Ye Fanglin came to the stage, she randomly grabbed one from the transparent extraction box. Open it up and see the smell. Tong Ziyu deliberately showed the extracted project letter to the camera.

"Let me read the competition rules for the sense of smell. The contestants must first draw a number plate and claim the task box with the number plate. There are 10 smell boxes in the task box. The players can find the corresponding ingredients or condiments according to the smell of the smell box The timer is ten minutes. In addition, in order to increase the difficulty of the game, we only have one kind of ingredients and condiments, but a small part of the 24 task boxes are repeated, which means that both accuracy and speed are required. I Announce, the game begins." Tong Ziyu read out the rules of the game for Smell.

When the game officially starts timing, the split screen in the live broadcast room has already displayed the mission goals in the mission boxes of each player.

At this time, the players also started to act. Most of the players opened one and took a sniff to start looking for the task items. But our Zhou Mochen is different. I saw him open the scent boxes one by one and smell them one by one, and then began to look for things he was more familiar with. He found 4 kinds in the first pass.

Open the remaining 6 kinds for the second time, and smell them carefully again. 4 more species were found. Reconfirmed the remaining two for the third time, smiled slightly, and thought to myself, it turned out to be you two little things. Find it quickly, and the mission is over. Zhou Mochen fired all his firepower and completed the mission goal within 6 minutes.

The judges saw Zhou Mochen's operation and praised him as a smart man. This is the best method, but it tests the chef's sense of smell and observation. It's really hard to pick 10 out of hundreds of things.

"Fuck, this little brother's operation is 666."

"Yes, regardless of whether the answer is correct or not, I still agree with this answering method."

"Excellent. I bet that player No. 9 will win this game."

"Let's not evaluate the strength first, and the momentum cannot be lost. This also hits those unfinished players from the heart, killing two birds with one stone."

"Haha, the other contestants are a little panicked."

"My little brother's last smile is so handsome, it's so attractive."

"Yeah, yeah, does anyone know what his name is? Where does he work? How many people are in his family? Do you have a girlfriend? Mind changing?"

"Fuck, I was caught off guard by showing my face."

"Haha, Brother Mochen is so amazing." Murong Ruoxue jumped up happily when she saw that Zhou Mochen had finished.

"Yeah, bullish, this job deserves a reward." Li Xin praised.

"Come on, Master, Master is the most powerful! Isn't it Pudding, Master is the most powerful." Jiang Yingying is still a fan of brains.

"Meow." Pudding also affirmed.

"It's time, all contestants, please return to your consoles. Our staff will go to check and inspect now, and we also invite our four judges to conduct random checks." Seeing that the time has come, Tong Ziyu arranged for personnel to check the answers.

The staff took the task list with the corresponding number and started to check one by one, and the 4 judges followed suit and started spot checks. Zhou Mochen was the most watched one. They are all curious about the correct rate of Zhou Mochen's operation. As a result, several people looked at Zhou Mochen in disbelief after watching it.

After checking and testing by the staff, the final score came out. Zhou Mochen ranked first with a perfect score of 10, followed by 8, 7, and 6 points. The lowest is 6 points.

As soon as the results came out, there was an uproar at the scene. Zhou Mochen looked at the rankings calmly, thinking, I said that if I want to knock you down, I will knock you down neatly. And the top three seeded contestants who were previously ranked in the leaderboard were as black as Ah San.

"Haha, this little brother is too powerful."

"I knew he would win."

"He is so awesome, does his mother know?"

"I'm going to ask my mother-in-law if she knows."

"Please be polite."

"."

"Win, hehe, master is amazing. Pudding, master wins." Jiang Yingying danced excitedly.

"Yes, yes, it's too powerful." Murong Ruoxue also went crazy with Jiang Yingying.

"With this advantage, as long as you play steadily in the future, you will not be able to advance." Liu Xing sighed.

Everyone also nodded.

"Congratulations to our No. 9 player, Zhou Mochen, temporarily ranked first with an absolute advantage." Tong Ziyu congratulated. She didn't expect that after increasing the difficulty, there would still be people who could get full marks.

"Next, the next event will be drawn by Ms. Tao Honglin, director of the notary office. I invite Ms. Tao Honglin to come on stage." Tong Ziyu then announced the second drawer.

After Tao Honglin came to the stage, she greeted the host and drew directly. Open it up and look at the engraving. Carving is a branch of knife work. Some art dishes require this skill very much. It is easy to get started but difficult to master.

Following the host's presentation, the current contestants have different thoughts. The audience was extremely excited, and most of the time when they went to restaurants to eat, there were no carving-like decorations. Only better hotels and restaurants will pay attention to these, so there are not many encounters.

"Well, Yingying, have you ever seen your master carve something?" Li Xin asked hesitantly.

"No, but my master is the most powerful, so I will definitely." Jiang Yingying said with certainty.

"Okay." Li Xin patted her head, feeling pain in the head, she shouldn't have asked this idiot, she was completely brainwashed by her master.

"Let's take a look first, haven't you seen that Zhou Mochen is still calm and relaxed?" Su Qian pointed to Zhou Mochen on the stage and said.

"There's a prize quiz, let's see which player can stand out in the second round."

"It must be our little brother No. 9."

"Yes, nothing else, it's the little brother No. 9."

"You really only care about your appearance, you don't want any bottom line, right?"

"Did you not notice his hand?"

"What's wrong with your hand? It's beautiful. How do you take care of it? I really want to know. Hee hee."

"I'll go. People say that this little brother's hands don't look like they are good at carving. There are no calluses on his hands, and there are no scars on his hands."

"I don't care, it must be little brother No. 9."

"you win."

"Next, I will read the rules of the engraving competition. The full score is 10, and the points are divided into two items to increase. One is the difficulty of selecting ingredients. We provide 8 kinds of ingredients for carving, from No. 1 to No. 8. The second is the grading of the carving works. The time is 20 minutes. Now start to choose the ingredients." Tong Ziyu still read out the rules of the second project.

Generally, the difficulty of carving is determined according to the hardness and toughness of the ingredients. Novices will use carrots for carving.

The contestants are also ready to choose the ingredients they need. Some choose radishes, some choose winter melon, and some choose fruits. And Zhou Mochen's choice once again attracted a lot of attention. He went to the last place where the tofu was placed, took out a piece of tofu from the water basin and turned it upside down, and found that the toughness was OK, and the density was no problem. Then he returned to his console.

"Is this little brother going crazy? This is too confident."

"Haha, I think it's worth seeing. This little brother is a good C position."

"Awesome, courageous."

"Zhou Mochen here." Zhou Mochen's operation made Su Qian and the others unable to deal with it.

"Can I have a basin filled with water? It's a little deeper." Zhou Mochen said to the staff after returning to the operating table.

The staff around him didn't speak, and looked down the stage.

"Bring him the glass jar containing tofu, and then fill it with water." A thick voice from the audience said.

The staff quickly lifted the glass jar to Zhou Mochen's operating table.

"Then I will announce that the timing will start." Tong Ziyu saw that the players were all ready, and signaled the start of the game.
