"This semester's outdoor internship has been decided. Residential training will be notified to all first-year classes and dormitories."
At Totsuki Academy, every student is a competitor, but people in the same dormitory can become partners who rely on each other and can be regarded as a collective.
Therefore, any notifications will be sent directly to the dormitory.
"The first test of the first grade is about to begin." Everyone knows that there will be the first batch of eliminations in the residential training.
Xing Ping Soma did not understand the seriousness of the problem and said casually: "Residential training is an outdoor activity organized by some schools. It means going to live in the mountains for two days to train your physical fitness and learn some wilderness survival skills."
"Yes, that's it." Senior Isshiki said.
"Then why is Tasokoro so scared?"
"Because of the elimination, this is the first big wave. You should have heard that the admission rate of Totsuki Academy is very low. When the first grade is promoted to the second grade, nine students will be eliminated. Residential training is a kind of
Elimination method.”
The young man asked: "Senior, have you experienced this too?"
The senior smiled and said: "Of course, all first-year students have to go through it. I remember that more than a dozen students were forcibly dropped out of school. And I also heard that in the most exaggerated case, half of the freshmen were dropped out."
Sister Tadokoro suddenly fainted. As soon as she heard about dropping out of school, she thought of herself, thinking that she would be sorry for her hometown elders, parents and brothers if she went back.
This is hell.
The young man was very calm, as if on a spring outing, and he was still thinking about whether to bring game cards or something like that.
"Tasoko even fainted, why are you so leisurely?"
The young man said directly: "The worst plan is to keep half of it, as long as you stay." He was so confident that he believed that his cooking skills could stay.
The training hell is about to begin.
On this day, dozens of buses parked on campus, and the first-year students set off.
Only then did the boy realize that there were so many people in the first grade and that they needed so many cars. He was really excited. Then he saw Dulan getting on the car leisurely. He didn't want to sit in the same car as Dulan.
We went directly to Totsuki Palace, a top resort overlooking Mount Fuji.
This is a five-star hotel. A person's daily consumption is at least 80,000 yen. Luxury, wealth, and demand exceed supply, which represent status and wealth. This is the strength of Totsuki Academy.
Students who graduate from the college will have the opportunity to work as chefs in such top hotels and top restaurants. This is the rule of the chaebol game. Without common people, it would be reckless at the very least.
Walking into the magnificent banquet hall is like walking into a crystal palace, with sparkling crystal chandeliers, artistic hanging paintings, and even the carpets under your feet made by famous artists...
Understated yet luxurious.
There was dead silence in the banquet hall, and everyone was very nervous. After all, what was going to happen next was a trial, and there would be many eliminations.
The young man was also affected by this serious atmosphere and couldn't help but ignite his fighting spirit.
"Okay, everyone, be quiet and listen to me introduce the rules of this training camp." The teacher came up and said: "This training camp lasts for 6 days and 5 nights. There are a total of 980 students here, in groups of 20. What follows?
Be mentally prepared for brutal training. Now let us invite a guest, your senior, an outstanding graduate from Totsuki Academy."
Everyone couldn't help but look towards the stage, and saw more than a dozen young talents wearing different chef uniforms filing in. Each one of them had a very strong aura.
This is the winner who has gone through many levels of selection at Totsuki Academy and finally stands at the top of the pyramid. He is a truly successful person.
The second generation chefs all feel strong oppression.
But Xingping Soma just wanted to compete with them and see their strength.
Dulan took a look and thought that indeed, the most important thing for chefs is appearance. Among these dozen graduates, there is no one with poor appearance. After all, chefs cooking in front of guests is also a special service of high-end restaurants. If the chef is ugly,
, the guests couldn’t eat it either.
These chefs are just appendages of money, just actors. The people who really control the resources of the chaebol are not among them.
This is just like the No. 1 pick. There have been many No. 1 picks since ancient times, but there are not many truly talented No. 1 picks. Choosing the No. 1 pick is more like choosing a role model, a role model. It does not require him to be really talented. What is needed is
His literary talent is good enough.
Really practical people are usually selected from among the Jinshi, not the number one scholar.
Some people may ask, why should we choose the number one scholar? Of course, it is because the literary talent of the number one scholar is good enough. Although it is not practical, good literary talent is also one of the goals of scholars.
Whether you work hard or not requires detailed analysis of specific situations. For example, if a person is good at water conservancy, but there are already enough water conservancy talents in this era, it will be useless for him to be the top pick.
Therefore, practical work depends on the environment. Literary talent is simple and virtual. It does not need to be combined with the environment and can be easily selected.
The No. 1 scholar represents a virtual standard. No matter what the environment, any talent can aim for the No. 1 scholar. If the No. 1 scholar is selected because of his water conservancy ability, then does everyone have to learn water conservancy?
The same is true for the graduates invited by Totsuki Academy. Although their cooking skills are very good, they can only cook and cannot control the resources of the chaebol. The real talents will not stay in the kitchen, but will enter all walks of life of the gourmet chaebol.
Become the backbone of the chaebol.
Dulan knew that these graduates were a false standard that allowed all students to work hard, but if they thought that they only needed to know cooking skills, they would be just cooks at best. They should work hard to learn other aspects of knowledge in school. Cooking skills are just a matter of integrating knowledge.
a central axis of .
Just like taking the No. 1 Scholar examination and studying the Four Books and Five Classics, literary talent is a thread that runs through all subjects. The No. 1 scholar is the one with the best literary talent, and it does not require the No. 1 scholar to have actual ability.
Dulan thought that as representatives of Xu, these graduates were not necessarily qualified, had a good enough image, and good cooking skills, but they could not become talents for running the consortium.
"The student in the ninth column with a wound on his eyebrow." A fashionable graduate wearing glasses suddenly said on stage.
There was a wound on the tip of his eyebrow. Yukihira Souma immediately pointed at himself, wondering why the other party would mention him.
"It's not you, it's the guy on your right who dropped out of school."
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone was dumbfounded. The training camp hadn't even started yet, so why did he drop out? There was nothing wrong with the other party, and they didn't do anything wrong. After all, they hadn't started doing anything yet.
"I dropped out of school? Why?" asked the boy who was said to have dropped out.
"Because your hair gel uses a citrus fragrance. This smell is too strong and will greatly affect your judgment of the smell of food. For chefs, dressing up is very important. If it is too rustic, use a gel with a rich fragrance.
Water and perfume are also not acceptable. Next time, use unscented cosmetics. As a chef, any small mistake will cause you to lose customers, so you drop out of school." The man with glasses said strictly.
"He is the chef of Shinomiya, and he is the first island native to win the French Culinary Arts Grand Prix."
"It's amazing."
"So handsome, he deserves to be a chef who owns his own restaurant."
"Poof!" Just as everyone was marveling and praising, a discordant mocking voice suddenly sounded.
Everyone quickly targeted the scoffers.
"Do you have any objections? You, an overage high school student?" Shinomiya asked.
"I see that chef you pay so much attention to details, even taking into account perfume and gel water. I think you have unified the world of French cuisine. Everyone who likes French food must be your guest. After all, you will not lose anything because of details.
With one guest, you will only have more guests, not less, so if you calculate it, you will be the absolute overlord of French cuisine." Duran said.
Everyone thought the same thing. With such attention to details, has he never lost a guest? If he had never lost a guest, wouldn't he want to dominate France?
But obviously he did not dominate France, which means that he also lost customers. So how did he lose customers? Is it because of poor details or poor cooking skills?
Seeing that everyone had begun to think independently, Dulan continued to ask: "Can I ask the senior a question? How did you know that jelly water will make the chef lose customers? Did you make a mistake yourself?"
"How could I make a mistake? I saw others make mistakes."
"In other words, you didn't know about it before you saw others making mistakes?" Dulan knew that the other person had fallen into his trap and said, "You didn't even know about it from the beginning, but you asked
We students know spontaneously. If we know everything spontaneously, then what do we need teachers to do, and what do we need you seniors to do? Senior Shinomiya, he who does not know is not guilty. If you insist on letting him drop out of school, then I will
I despise you from the bottom of my heart."
There was a strong smell of gunpowder for a while.
