Seeing Chi Xueli, Fang Xiaoyu was in a great mood. He took out the ingredients he brought, lined them up, washed them carefully, and hummed while garnishing them.
His cheerful and interesting look made the audience below amused.
The chef in Dongxi Restaurant had a serious expression and wiped the sweat from his forehead with his hands from time to time. It was obvious that he was very nervous.
After washing the vegetables, Fang Xiaoyu picked up the knife and started cutting the vegetables.
When the judges saw that Fang Xiaoyu's sword skills were very unfamiliar, they all shook their heads and sighed. Some people in the audience also started talking.
"This guy doesn't seem to be very good at cooking! His knife skills are average!"
"Yes! But this guy's mentality is quite good."
"This is called stupid young people having more fun."
Chi Xueli felt very uncomfortable when she heard someone talking about Fang Xiaoyu behind her, but she didn't want to argue with them. She believed that Fang Xiaoyu's cold fungus would definitely win the championship.
Not long after, Fang Xiaoyu prepared the cold fungus and poured in the best sesame oil. Someone immediately shouted softly at the scene.
"smell good!"
"Yes! The cold fungus this guy makes must be delicious."
Now the camera just switches to Fang Xiaoyu's side, and everyone can clearly see Fang Xiaoyu's cooking process on the large LCD screen.
Smell the fragrance of the best oil and look at the shiny fungus.
The audience has an urge to eat it.
Fang Xiaoyu was about to serve the food. At this moment, he suddenly saw guest No. 2 waving to the host, and the host walked over quickly.
After the two whispered to each other for a while, guest No. 2 walked away holding his abdomen in his hands.
"Everyone, I have something very important that I need to explain to you. Since guest No. 2 has a stomachache, he can no longer insist on completing the review work. The working group has decided to activate emergency procedures, and we will invite another guest of ours to come on."
When Fang Xiaoyu heard this, he felt something was wrong.
He remembered the phone call that the man had made in the bathroom earlier. The man said that his person would be replaced soon.
This shows that this was premeditated, and it is very likely that guest No. 2 was given laxatives.
Fang Xiaoyu decided to wait for the chef of Dongxi Hotel to serve the food first. In this way, he could know in advance whether the new guests would intentionally favor them.
If it is really unfair, he will be at the back and still have a chance to protest.
Fang Xiaoyu specially washed some fungus and prepared the dishes again.
When everyone saw his action, they started talking in confusion.
"It's strange that this young man didn't pay the judges for the fungus after he finished it, but then added some more. What does this mean?"
"Maybe it's a cooking technique!"
Fang Xiaoyu calmed down and waited patiently.
After waiting for more than ten minutes, the chef of Dongxi Restaurant finally made a fragrant Dongpo pork.
“I’d like to invite the participating food from Donglin Restaurant to the stage, the traditional Dongpo braised pork...”
After several judges paid for their dishes, they each showed their scoring cards.
"10 points, 96 points, 97 points."
Next, guest No. 1 comments.
"Yeah! This dish does taste good and the dishes are beautiful. I give it 96 points."
After the new guest took a bite, he immediately made a very exaggerated action, "Yeah! Yes, this Dongpo meat is fat but not greasy, smooth and flavorful, melts in the mouth, and full of deliciousness. Delicious! I give it
10 points."
The audience in the audience was in an uproar, wondering why the scores given by different judges and guests were so different.
There's nothing you can do about doubting it, after all, everyone's taste is different. People in the audience didn't personally explain it, so naturally they don't know what's going on.
Although the judges were surprised, it was hard to talk about it in person.
Fang Xiaoyu knew there must be something wrong with this. The gap between the scores given by the judges was too big. There were actually two perfect scores. Fortunately, Ling Hongmei’s total score was 494 points, one step ahead, and she temporarily held the first place.
Next, let’s see what the judges think!
Fang Xiaoyu rang the bell, and soon an etiquette lady came over and took away the fungus on his table and brought it to the judges' table.
After the three judges tasted it, they frowned involuntarily and let out bursts of admiration.
"tasty!"
“It tastes amazing.”
"too delicious."
The three people's eyes were closed, and it took a while before they remembered to show the scoreboard.
"97 points, 10 points, 10 points."
Next, the best cold fungus was delivered to the guests’ seats.
"I give it 10 points. It's so delicious. There's no reason. Deliciousness is the best reason." Female guest No. 1, in a moment of excitement, stabbed several pieces of fungus with a toothpick and put them in her mouth.
Guest No. 2 also paid, and soon made the same admiration.
At this time, Fang Xiaoyu saw that the face of the man in the audience who had called earlier changed immediately.
The man's eyes were fixed on guest No. 2 on the stage.
Guest No. 2 happened to glance at the man, and his expression immediately changed.
He frowned, looked into the microphone with a straight face and said: "This dish tastes okay. However, I can only give it 7 points because the dish is old and very simple. There is no creativity."
As soon as these words came out, female guest No. 1 was unconvinced. She stood up and said, "I think 7 points is too low. What does it mean to be uncreative? The first thing about food is deliciousness, and the next thing is creativity.
And style. There’s something wrong with what you said.”
"Yes! I think it's not too much to give this dish full marks."
"Yes, I think it should be given full marks. What the experts say among the people is true. I fully support this dish."
The two judges also strongly supported Fang Xiaoyu’s cold fungus.
This sudden scene made Guest No. 2's face turn red. He frowned and said, "Everyone has different tastes. Since I'm sitting at the guest table, I have the right to give my own rating."
"Yes, I also think that giving this dish full marks is a bit excessive." Another judge added.
These two people have been bribed by Dongxi Hotel.
At this time, Chi Xueli in the audience stood up and said to everyone: "I suggest increasing the number of judges to allow the audience to participate. This will better reflect the fairness of the competition. When there is a dispute, this mechanism is
It should be allowed."
Hearing this, male guest No. 2 was trembling with anger. He stood up and pointed at Chi Xueli and said, "Who are you? It's not your turn to speak here."
Upon hearing this, the host turned pale with fright.
He knew that Chi Xueli's status was extraordinary. His uncle was the boss of the organizer, and the power of his family should not be underestimated. He had to wait for her to come even though the first-class VIP seat had been empty. This was not a premeditated matter. He still had to wait for her to come.
I'm getting my uncle's salary!
The host quickly walked up to guest No. 2 and explained to everyone: "Sorry, sorry, male guest No. 2 has been drinking. This was our mistake."
After that, he waved to the security guard: "Quick, someone will help him down. The evaluation will be restarted for the last two dishes."
This style of painting has changed so quickly.
Fang Xiaoyu was in a very good mood and glanced at Chi Xueli. The beauty happened to see him and smiled and made a victory gesture towards him.
Fang Xiaoyu's hanging heart dropped. He knew that the champion was determined tonight. (To be continued)
