293. It’s inconvenient to take a car, so why not just run there?(2/2)
Unknowingly, the popularity value given to him by the system was already quite high, although the introduction of the system was only briefly introduced above.
One point of fame will allow 10 strangers to recognize Li Xiao through different channels, but the effect of reality is far more powerful than Li Xiao imagined.
Those who know Li Xiao through the system's reputation will unconsciously and automatically follow Li Xiao and become his audience, then fans, and finally die-hard fans.
And everything that happened happened subtly, and no one noticed anything unusual.
Even the person involved would only think that they have been following Li Xiao because they like watching Li Xiao's live broadcast, and no one would think that their preference is actually controlled by a supernatural being.
And these people who become Li Xiao's die-hard fans will also begin to spread their ideas and attitudes towards Li Xiao to the people around them.
At the same time, he will also tell the people around him what happened to Li Xiao. This is the real reason why Li Xiao feels that no matter what happens to him recently, he will easily become a hot topic.
I went back to the room and took another hot bath to wash away the smell of roast duck.
Lying leisurely on the bed, chatting with Jiang Yingxue while searching the Internet for star chef competitions the day after tomorrow.
In the middle of the journey, Li Xiao received a call from the front desk, asking if he wanted a home massage. Although he had never experienced it, he knew what it was when he heard it and refused without hesitation.
Just came back from the street
Seeing that the time came to 10:30, he quickly turned off his phone and went to bed early. Although his energy recovered quickly now, he still had to take good care of his body after all.
Besides, he had to go to bed early to get up early. He would have to rush over to the scene early tomorrow morning to take a look.
I got up early on the second day.
After Li Xiao washed up, he ate two meat buns in an alley near the hotel and set off.
The steamed buns taste quite average, and you can tell at a glance that they are mass-produced in a factory.
The meat filling used is very ordinary, but the seasoning is professionally prepared, and the taste is still better than ordinary roadside buns.
They called a Gaode special car. When Li Xiao had no money before, he thought the bus was quite convenient.
Later, when I got rich, I found taxis to be very convenient.
But when he got his own car, he realized that taxis and buses were rubbish. It was most comfortable to have his own car and be able to go wherever he wanted.
However, considering that my car could not be driven into the capital, and that it was not worthwhile to drive a long distance to take the exam, I gave up the idea.
The traffic situation in the capital area is really not that bad. Li Xiao came to the city from the suburbs yesterday and didn't feel it was obvious.
Today, when waiting for a special car in the city, you can clearly feel the unfriendly traffic in the capital. Li Xiao got up at 6:00 and set off at 6:30.
However, he had specially called Gaode's special car 10 minutes early, but he did not expect that he still had to wait for a full hour before he got the special car.
Seeing this situation, Li Xiao was not angry. Instead, he was a little lucky. Fortunately, he went to the stadium one day in advance to check the situation.
Otherwise, if I only leave an hour earlier according to the traffic conditions in Dongguan, I will really be doomed.
If we arrive an hour early, we probably won't even be able to wait for the bus.
He knew that being late for the game would directly disqualify him from the competition, although he didn't have much idea about whether he could get this certificate.
But there are hundreds of thousands of people in the live broadcast room, and they all know that they have come to the capital specifically to take the one-star chef test.
If I were disqualified because I was late, I would probably be the laughing stock in the live broadcast room for a long time.
Others will not believe that you were disqualified because you were late.
If others cannot find your star chef information on the Internet, they will directly assume that your skills must be too low, so you failed the exam.
At that time, my live broadcast room will probably be in chaos instantly, and those black men who were originally hiding will probably come out all at once.
Although he is not too worried about his popularity being affected, the live broadcast room is full of black people making trouble, which is very uncomfortable for people to watch.
It was rush hour in the morning, so it took Li Xiao another 50 minutes to arrive at the competition venue.
Before, Li Xiao had always wondered why the exam time was set so late at 10:00. He realized now that it was not late at all, or even a little too early. If he lived a little further away from the competition venue, he would probably just rush there.
That's enough.
For example, it took me two full hours to get to the venue today. If there was any traffic jam, it would have taken more than two hours.
In other words, the game starts at 10:00, and I must leave before 7:30.
However, Li Xiao soon discovered that something was wrong. The reason why he originally chose this small four-star hotel was because the environment here was better and the ratings were higher.
More importantly, he checked this hotel at the time and found that it was only 10 kilometers away from the competition venue. Good guy, 10 kilometers would take him two hours. Isn't this a joke?
I immediately realized that I had fallen into a misunderstanding. It is true that under normal circumstances, riding a car is definitely faster than running or walking, but it also depends on the actual situation.
Even in a situation like today, it took an hour to hail a taxi, and the journey in between also took an hour.
With this time, I might as well run there! My usual morning exercise is more than 8 kilometers, and now the navigation here shows that 10 kilometers is only two hours longer than my usual time.
Li Xiao touched his smooth chin and nodded. This is indeed a good method.
But for the sake of safety, I can try it first when I come back. After all, if I am not familiar with the place, I am afraid of getting lost, and I am afraid that there will be some sections on the way where I cannot walk and I have to drive, which will be troublesome.
When we arrived at the examination venue, it was actually a chef academy.
Only on special occasions, it is lent to the National Chefs Association for competitions. This school is very big.
I checked the information about this school and found that it can provide more than 2,000 chefs to the society every year, which is quite remarkable.
Although he is not a star chef, there is no problem for a chef like this who has studied in an academic school to serve as the third or second chef or even the chef of some small restaurants.
At this time, the school is already in a semi-open state, and some accessible places can be freely entered and exited. Li Xiao also saw many people like him, who came here a day in advance to inspect the venue.
After all, the opportunity only comes once a year, and many people who come to participate in the competition even need to resign from the store or arrange a lot of things in advance.
After all, in some small shops, there are mainstays who are capable of participating in the one-star chef competition. Once these people leave, it is likely to cause chaos in the shop.
