Gu Zheng said lightly. At this moment, he also understood why his father had such an attitude when he mentioned this food festival, but he was already here and could only do as the Romans did.
"Thank you for your understanding!"
Hao Sen breathed a sigh of relief. In fact, before Gu Zheng arrived, he was worried that Gu Zheng would not be able to accept the fact that he was actually invited privately. After all, Gu Zheng was also one of the top chefs in China, especially this year.
The winner of the Chinese Food Competition must be cooked.
Hao Sen is from China and understands the arrogance of talented Chinese people.
A top person, no matter what industry he is at, is proud of himself. He originally came to participate in a public food festival, but after arriving, it turned into a private invitation. Especially in the chef industry, it was as if he was invited alone.
It's strange for a cook to have a good temper.
Gu Zheng agreed so quickly, but Hao Sen actually felt strange.
But no matter what, this is a good thing. If Gu Zheng can accept it and leaves without anger, he has completed most of the things assigned by his boss.
"Please come this way!"
Hao Sen respected Gu Zheng very much. He was sent to serve Gu Zheng, and he could also be said to be the person who waited on Gu Zheng. If Gu Zheng was angry, he would not be able to bear the consequences and walk away.
Sir Brown was very generous to Gu Zheng and gave him the most luxurious presidential suite. There were only three such rooms near the entire event. Sir Brown grabbed one and gave it back to Gu Zheng. This also shows his strength.
and the emphasis on ancient disputes.
The Brown family has been prosperous in Europe for hundreds of years, and the contemporary Sir Brown is also a Viscount, who is much stronger than those ordinary nobles.
Gu Zheng was not polite. Since the public invitation became private, there was no need for him to save money for the other party.
The opening ceremony was held at ten o'clock. Gu Zheng put away his gifts and simply packed up before going out. This time the food scene was held at the International Convention and Exhibition Center in Lyon, which was nearby. Even though it was very close, Hao Sen still opened the door.
I got a car and drove directly in to see Gu Zheng off.
There are a lot of people in the Convention and Exhibition Center. Many people have already arrived. There are dozens of people on the highest platform. Most are in their thirties, with a few in their forties and twenties. A few are still obvious.
Middle East ministry.
"Mr. Gu, please wait a moment, Sir Brown will come to entertain you in person later!"
Hao Sen led Gu Zheng to the guest seat, asked Gu Zheng to sit down first, and said politely that Gu Zheng was a distinguished guest that Sir Brown had finally invited, so he would not be disrespectful in his attitude.
In fact, Sir Brown himself did not expect that Gu Zheng would agree to come. Their event had long since deteriorated and turned into a game between nobles. Many truly famous chefs were unwilling to come.
When he originally sent the invitation to Gu Zheng, he also thought that Gu Zheng was young and wanted to give it a try. Chefs of Gu Zheng's level would basically not accept the invitation unless they had a particularly good relationship or the other party was short of money.
If you can reach the top level of a country, no matter what industry you are in, you will basically not be short of money.
Because of this, Sir Brown attaches great importance to Gu Zheng's arrival. If Gu Zheng had not arrived by private plane, he would have sent someone to pick him up and entertain him the whole time. However, Gu Zheng would not let him pick him up, and he also sent someone to wait in Lyon.
, and also let the people sent to follow the service 24 hours a day.
"Hello, Mr. Gu, nice to meet you!"
After a while, a middle-aged man in his thirties walked over with Hao Sen. The man even stretched out his arms, eager to hug Gu Zheng.
"Thank you, are you Sir Brown?"
Gu Zheng skillfully blocked it. This man was young, but he had a full beard, which was not his type.
"That's right, you can just call me Brown from now on!"
Sir Brown was stunned for a moment, but he still laughed, shook hands with Gu Zheng, and then sat here and chatted with Gu Zheng for a while before leaving.
He has already told Hao Sen that no matter what Gu Zheng's request is, he must satisfy it, unless it is something that Sir Brown cannot do. This attitude is indeed good, but Gu Zheng really does not need him to do anything.
There is no shortage of money in Guzheng. Although he is not a top rich man, it is enough for his own use.
Gu Zheng is not picky about food and accommodation. Besides, no one can beat him in terms of food. Accommodation has been arranged. As for having fun, Gu Zheng has never been interested. Sir Brown just said directly that he could send him some top beauties.
Enjoyment was directly rejected by Gu Zheng.
Giving him a woman is not something he likes.
The opening ceremony began soon. The mayor of Lyon and a deputy prime minister of France participated in the opening ceremony. From this point of view alone, the government still attaches great importance to this event. Although the Lyon Food Festival is still a local event, its influence has spread all over the world.
, they don’t care what the nature of the food festival is, as long as it can bring benefits to the city.
Every food festival will drive a lot of tourism industry, allowing the city to increase some revenue and even some investment.
After all, most of those nobles were wealthy owners. Especially this time, several princes from the Middle East came, which made the government pay more attention to it, so the deputy prime minister came to preside over the opening ceremony.
The opening ceremony was very elaborate and well done. A large number of exquisite delicacies were also placed at the opening ceremony for the guests and spectators who came to attend the opening ceremony.
I also tried these foods in Gu Zheng, and they tasted pretty good. Although the ingredients were average, they were cooked with great care, and they are considered good delicacies in China.
After the opening ceremony, various delicacies began to appear on the stage, and many tourists who came here began to taste the delicacies here, drinking red wine and eating delicious food, which was very comfortable.
The opening ceremony of the food festival is at the Convention and Exhibition Center, but the event venue is not just here. There are tens of thousands of food stalls all around the outside, which looks very spectacular. These food stalls are all local French snacks. Although they are very simple, they are
It tastes really good and makes many tourists happy and enjoyable.
For ordinary tourists, this is the food festival they attend, a very good food festival.
From this point of view alone, the Lyon Food Festival is still good. If it were not for the participation of those nobles, perhaps this would be the purest food event.
However, with the participation of nobles, the food festival has a greater impact on the upper class, which can be considered to have advantages and disadvantages.
There was nothing wrong with Gu Zheng on the first day of the activity. Under the leadership of Hao Sen, he kept wandering outside and ate a lot of French specialties. Although he could find many faults with each item, this was all after all.
Foreign snack representatives also have their own merits.
It's a pity that he didn't meet Shu Yu. There were a lot of people attending the food festival, a hundred thousand people. It was not easy to find someone he knew among so many people, even if it was an ancient battle, not to mention that he didn't deliberately search for them.
The Lyon Food Festival lasts for ten days in total. The first three days are very leisurely and are no different from traditional food festivals. The key lies in the next seven days.
In this food festival, twenty-three real nobles and fifteen wealthy disciples participated. These thirty-eight people are the real backbone of the food festival, because they invite the truly top chefs to serve outside.
The stalls are just street stalls.
It’s not that street stalls don’t have delicious food. Compared with real professional masters, they are still far behind.
Thirty-eight people invited fifty-six chefs, all of whom were master chefs or above. It was a humiliation for them to invite low-status chefs based on their status.
Fifty-six people come from all over the world and are quite famous in their respective countries. Among them are the Royal Chef of the United Kingdom, the most famous and powerful chef in Florida, the number one chef in Argentina, and the top ten famous chefs in Japan.
Chef, and Gu Zheng, the new number one in China.
Although many chefs are aware of the nature of this event, some people have to come because of connections, money, and other reasons. There are also a few who, like Gu Zheng, are not clear about the nature of the event and are deceived.
Those who came eventually gathered fifty-six famous chefs who were masters or above.
Fifty-six people may sound like a lot, but it is not in line with the status of the Lyon Food Festival. There will not be so few master-level celebrity chefs in any food festival held in a big city.
For example, the Shanghai Food Festival has never had less than 100 master chefs, and sometimes there are more than 200 master chefs. Some international food festivals, such as the Canadian International Food Festival, the New York International Food Festival, etc.
etc., with thousands of master-level chefs participating.
Fifty-six, although a little less, is much better than none.
The real home and battlefield of this food festival lies with these fifty-six people.
Thirty-eight people and fifty-six chefs came. Some invited one, some invited two, some invited three, and some even didn't invite any. They just came to join in the fun and see how everyone played.
Gu Zheng didn't ask what he was going to do next. Anyway, it was time to eat and play. In addition, he contacted the country and asked Ouyang Hai to pay attention to whether there were any immortal cultivators from India. He was interested in the person who instilled immortality in Indians.
There are not many immortal cultivators who are very interested in lending their immortal power to others.
At least Shushan and Kunlun couldn't do it. If they could, they could use their own immortal power to create a group of five-level strong men.
It's a pity that three days have passed without any movement in Emei, which makes Gu Zheng a little disappointed.
But it doesn't matter, he has already done some tricks on those five people. If this immortal cultivator doesn't show up, he will take the initiative to find him, but not now.
He has not yet reached the level of an immortal cultivator and is no match for others. If he goes there, he will only cause trouble for himself. It is better to improve his strength and then drag Ouyang Hai with him before going.
Gu Zheng believed that as long as he reached the level of an immortal cultivator and was with Ouyang Hai, there wouldn't be many people in the world who could keep them.
Within three days, Gu Zheng tasted a lot of snacks here and gained a lot of inspiration.
No cooking skill comes out of thin air. Really good cooking skills have their own stories. Even these snacks, their birth, their development, their improvement, each has many, many stories, ancient disputes
In addition to eating, I just asked and listened to a lot of stories about French food.
These stories include love, comedy, and tragedy. Of course, they cannot all be true. It should be said that most of them are false, but the birth and development of some foods are indeed true.
In fact, there are many such things in China.
There are more delicacies in China, and many inconspicuous things have many stories, such as tofu. Who would have thought that tofu was invented by a prince, and the reason why this prince invented tofu is because
He was a foodie himself. Because there were very few delicacies in his time, he researched and invented tofu.
Some people also say that tofu was accidentally invented by him while refining alchemy, but no matter what, tofu is inseparable from this prince and king. This prince and prince is Liu An, the king of Huainan, the grandson of Liu Bang, the founder of the Han Dynasty.
Gu Zheng liked hearing these stories when he was a child. Now he heard many such stories at the food festival and was very satisfied.
"Mr. Gu, I'm going to trouble you today!"
Early in the morning on the fourth day, Hao Sen was waiting at the door of Gu Zheng, and when Gu Zheng came out, he stepped forward to salute.
"No trouble, tell me, what should I do?"
When Gu Zheng is invited, he must show off his skills. As long as the other party's request is not too excessive, he will agree.
But it was only this once. He would not participate in such an event in the future. If there were similar events, he would have to inquire about them first. Don't come here blindly like this time.
"You don't need to do anything. Sir Brown has a high prestige and he doesn't need to go to others. But if someone comes forward to provoke you, you just need to fight back!"
Hao Sen lowered his head and said with a smile.
"Counterattack, how to counterattack?" Gu Zheng asked again.
"It's very simple, as long as you make better food than them, it's a counterattack!"
"So simple?"
"Right, that is it!"
"That's no problem, let's go!"
Gu Zheng was not asking, and he was not interested in asking about the specific situation. Anyway, he didn't know how to cook too much food, and it was absolutely impossible for others to force him to do it.
No matter here or in the country, there is no one who can force Gu Zheng to do something. Let alone the nobles, not even the president of the United States. He does not have the qualifications. Even if he uses force, it is impossible. No one can really force him.
The ancient struggle.
The food festival continues, and there are still many delicious snacks outside, which continue to attract many tourists. These tourists include French people, many Europeans, and people from all over the world.
A main venue in the convention and exhibition center. There were already many people here when Gu Zheng arrived. The fifty-six chefs invited this time also came. Most of the chefs stood together with the people who invited them, chatting and joking.
Smile, it looks very harmonious.
There were no cooking utensils here. Gu Zheng just glanced at them and walked towards Sir Brown.
"Mr. Gu, thank you!"
Sir Brown did not hug this time, but shook hands instead. He invited a chef from Gu Zheng. There was no one else around him except Gu Zheng. Hao Sen just sent Gu Zheng here and did not come in.
