"Lao Guo, tell me the truth, is that omelette made by Gu Zheng really that delicious?"
In a hotel suite in Hangzhou, a man in his fifties was talking on the phone. He was also a famous chef who participated in the competition today. His score was slightly lower than that of Gu Zheng. After returning from the competition, he
I felt very uncomfortable, so I simply picked up the phone and asked an old friend.
At their age and level, everyone has a wide circle of contacts. Today there is a judge who is his friend, and he called specifically to ask.
"I don't know what to say, but one thing I'm sure of is that this is the best omelette I've ever tasted!"
This judge named Lao Guo had a good relationship with him, so he hesitated and told him.
"Even you said that, this guy seems to have some moral integrity!"
The man frowned. He also advanced to tomorrow's competition, but he was among the 12th in the first venue. This ranking is a bit embarrassing. There will only be 30 people who can advance to the finals tomorrow. His ranking is just right according to today's ranking.
He is on the verge of promotion, so he has to investigate every opponent clearly.
Only when you know yourself and your enemy can you cope with it better.
Not only Gu Zheng, he would also investigate other players, but Gu Zheng impressed him the most, and he was the first to ask.
"Boss, what do you think I found?"
In another courtyard, a person hurriedly walked in from the outside. There was a pavilion in the courtyard. Under the pavilion, a man was sipping tea with his eyes closed.
If Gu Zheng were here, he would definitely recognize that the person enjoying the tea was Zhao Fu, who won first place at their venue today.
"Say it!"
Zhao Fu opened his eyes. He was the first in the audience today, among more than 400 people. He was worthy of winning the grand prize in the Chinese Cuisine Competition. Despite this, he did not relax. He knew very well that among the private chefs
In Tiger Hidden Dragon, there are many masters, and if you are not careful, you may be overturned.
Even in the Chinese Cuisine Competition, there have been cases where the reputation was not well-known, but in the end it reached the finals and even got a ranking.
"That Gu Zheng is Gu Ming's son and only son. In addition to fried eggs, he seems to be good at making chicken blood soup. Mr. Wu from Shanghai once served as his judge and ate his food, and he spoke highly of it!"
Gu Zheng was an opponent who was favored by Zhao Fu. Gu Zheng's score was lower than him, but Gu Zheng made omelette, a very simple thing, especially the shape of the omelette made by Gu Zheng, so artistic.
Even he couldn't make a delicious omelette.
"Gu Ming's son can also make blood soup, but that's all?"
"That's it, nothing else. Gu Zheng's profession is as a food critic. He usually writes a lot of articles, but he does very little. These are only available recently!"
The person who came in was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly added that he had finally found out these things.
The Food Channel had a special report on the last competition between Gu Zheng and Duck Blood Vermicelli Soup, but it did not mention Gu Ming. This was also Gu Zheng's request, as he did not want to involve his father.
There were other tabloids that reported it, but that tabloid didn't have access to the Internet, so this person still used his contacts to make more inquiries, and then he found out about it.
"Chicken blood soup, it's interesting. Find a way to reveal this news to Sun Er!"
Zhao Fu picked up the tea cup with a smile and continued to sip his tea. After hearing his instructions, the visitor was stunned for a moment, then immediately showed a knowing smile, turned around and walked out.
At this moment, Gu Zheng didn't know that many people were asking about him. After the game, he returned to his residence and celebrated their promotion today with Wang Dong and Mu Mu.
Wang Dong, in particular, directly expressed his gratitude to Gu Zheng. He understood that the reason why he was promoted today was entirely because Gu Zheng helped him change the ingredients.
His score today is 33rd in the game. It is dangerous to advance, but it is not impossible. Tomorrow is the last day of preliminary competition. The ones who can stay now are basically very capable masters. In fact, he is confident that he can go as far as he can.
I am very satisfied here. Even if the head chef of his hotel comes to participate in the competition, he may not be able to do better than him.
These days, there are more than a dozen chefs in five-star hotels who have been eliminated. They have no real strength and cannot be retained at all.
What's more, the hotel where Wang Dong works is only a four-star hotel. When his head chef comes over, it is unknown whether he can enter the fourth day of the competition. Entering the fifth day, there is basically no possibility.
In the evening, both Gu Zheng and Wang Dong received confirmation calls from the organizing committee. Tomorrow's competition will be unified at today's third venue. There will not be so many venues competing at the same time tomorrow. There will be only one venue. At this venue, it will be decided who can participate.
The final list.
Ninety to thirty, three to one, a life and death battle. Who can participate in the finals depends on the result of tomorrow's game.
Early the next morning, Gu Zheng and Wang Dong got up. Gu Zheng was not nervous, but Wang Dong's performance was slightly worse. The calming spell that Gu Zheng used on him did not last that long, and by today the effect had weakened.
It's a lot, but with Gu Zheng following him, you can apply the Soothing Technique to him at any time.
After breakfast, the two came to the third venue together. Mumu did not come with him today. She needed to deal with some things. In addition, Mr. Wu from their website would be arriving today, and she was also going to pick him up. She followed Gu Zheng into the venue.
If she can't come out in the afternoon, she will miss the time to pick up the train.
The third venue covers an area of more than 2,000 square meters. It is the most luxuriously decorated and is most suitable for food competitions. Tomorrow's final will also be held here.
"Come on Gu Zheng!"
"Come on Wang Dong!"
As soon as the three of them arrived, someone shouted at the door, which shocked both Gu Zheng and Wang Dong. There were quite a few people at the door, hundreds of them, and some even held banners in their hands that read, "Gu Zheng."
Words such as "Come on, fight for victory", "Wang Dong must win" and so on.
These people were all chefs who had participated in the competition before. They made so much noise on the forum yesterday that the organizing committee temporarily closed the forum. Some people who had been eliminated but had not yet left, discussed it and came together.
Here, cheer for the remaining contestants.
They were enemies during the game, but now that the game is over, they have become people on the same front.
These people support not only Gu Zheng and Wang Dong, but also the eighteen people who have been promoted are among their supporters.
Every time someone comes, a banner will be pulled up to cheer them up, but the banners with Gu Zheng's name on them are the most numerous, and the most people support Gu Zheng.
After all, in the preliminary round, Gu Zheng ranked first for three consecutive days. After many famous chefs joined in on the fourth day, Gu Zheng's results were still among the best. When it comes to who among the eighteen people has the best chance of advancing to the finals, Gu Zheng ranked first.
, no one dares to say second.
This is the impact of Gu Zheng's results for several consecutive days. Such results gave everyone enough confidence. Many people expected Gu Zheng to go further, or to get a good ranking.
"Thanks!"
Everyone who participated in the four competitions and came to the venue was very moved. Compared with the celebrity chefs who were recommended, they are not so famous or influential, but they are not fighting alone.
