Chapter Ninety-One: The Fear of Being Dominated by the College Entrance Examination!
The IGO rating assessment is very formal, divided into two parts: written test and practical operation.
The first is the written examination.
Qian Chen quickly followed the crowd into a huge, bright classroom according to the room number marked on the admission ticket.
Four columns and five rows, a total of twenty desks are neatly arranged in the classroom.
Qian Chen found his seat according to the admission ticket and sat down.
At this time, the candidates were still entering the venue one after another, and Qian Chen had time to observe around.
At this time, the tense and strict atmosphere in the examination room reminded Qian Chen of the fear of being dominated by the college entrance examination in his previous life.
No, in a sense, the IGO rating assessment is stricter than the college entrance examination.
At least Qian Chen had never seen it, the distance between each exam table was at least three meters or more, and there were actually five invigilators in black suits with serious expressions patrolling the examination room.
Cameras are installed in all four corners of the classroom, and the red lights under the lens flash like the eyes of a tireless demon.
Not only that, but before Qian Chen entered the examination room, he went through a security check comparable to that of the airport, with X-rays, magnetic sensors, and body searches.
In addition, candidates are not allowed to bring anything into the venue, stationery will be distributed by IGO, and candidates' belongings will be taken away before entering the examination room.
Qian Chen even saw drones patrolling back and forth from time to time outside the window.
Artificial and mechanical protection of the entire examination room is leak-proof.
Such a rigorous exam is really unheard of.
But think about it, in terms of gold content alone, the rating assessment of IGO is much higher than that of the college entrance examination.
Passing the college entrance examination requires at least four years of university study, and it may not be possible to guarantee a 100% success rate.
Once the chef passes the IGO rating assessment, he can directly become the pillar of the restaurant kitchen and have a broader future.
The carp jumps over the dragon gate, and turns into a dragon when it encounters a storm!
Soon with a rush of bells, the assessment began.
Qian Chen immediately picked up the paper and began to review the question.
It didn't matter if he looked at it, Qian Chen suddenly felt his brain swell.
The number of test questions is not only large, but also covers a wide range of knowledge and disciplines.
Nutrition, Biology, Chemistry, Food Identification, Cooking Case Studies, etc.
It's not like a chef exam, it's a graduate school entrance exam.
Fortunately, Qian Chen usually understands and masters these knowledge, and when he got the IGO official letter, he made up for it, plus the experience of the college entrance examination in his previous life.
Although the assessment of IGO is difficult, it is still difficult for Qian Chen.
Three years of simulated five-year college entrance examination to understand, question sea tactics to understand.
After passing the written assessment, the next step is the practical assessment.
In the eyes of all chefs, the practical assessment is the moment when the chef's hard power is truly tested!
The content of the assessment is simple and easy, and it is difficult to say that it is difficult.
The content of this practical test is to make a ramen that satisfies the examiner based on the limited ingredients.
Ramen originated in the Celestial Empire, but since it spread to Japan, it has gradually developed a ramen culture unique to Japan as the times have changed.
Ramen is one of Japan's most iconic cuisines.
From the practical topics, it can be seen that IGO has good intentions.
IGO's requirements for a one-star chef are simple.
A one-star chef doesn't need to master cool cooking skills or advanced recipes.
However, a one-star chef must have a solid foundation in his cooking skills.
Therefore, the one-star chef assessment directly limits the ingredients and gives recipes at the same time.
As long as the chef himself has a solid foundation, there is no problem in passing the one-star assessment.
Of course, this well-established standard is relative to IGO, but in fact this standard is extremely strict for chefs who are not talented.
Otherwise, the pass rate of each assessment will not be less than 40%.
The practical exam was conducted in a very large, empty examination room.
Qian Chen took a cursory look at it, and there were at least more than a hundred kitchen counters inside. In addition to the special equipment required for molecular cooking, there are basically all kinds of mainstream kitchen utensils, and each set of kitchen counters alone can cost tens of millions of yen.
There are hundreds of such kitchen tables in one examination room, and there is more than one such examination room.
Qian Chen has a new understanding of the inhumanity of IGO.
Bang Bang Bang!
At this moment, with a crisp bell ringing, the practical assessment officially began.
The chefs immediately raced against time as if they had entered the battlefield, and the atmosphere was tense and busy.
Almost every chef has a tense expression on his face, and his palms handle the ingredients quickly and flexibly.
However, in the examination room, there are very few chefs who seem to be at ease.
Qian Chen is one of them.
He defeated Fujita in a halberd with secret beef powder, and after obtaining all of Fujita's recipes, he studied Hakata tonkotsu ramen with black garlic oil.
Cricket ramen is not difficult for Qian Chen at all.
So Qian Chen was in stark contrast to the dozens of chefs around him.
Large beads of sweat continued to appear on the forehead of the chef near him, and the movements in his hands stopped for a moment, and he was extremely focused on making his own food.
On the other hand, Qian Chen didn't seem to have any nervousness, and the movements in his hands looked unhurried.
In fact, this is completely an illusion caused by Qian Chen.
Although his movements are not fast, they are as smooth as flowing water, which brings super high efficiency.
The chef next to him was nervous and busy, and he didn't stop for a moment, but in the end, the progress actually slowly fell behind Qian Chen?
For other chefs, this examination room is like a battlefield, but Qian Chen seems to use it as a playground for outings.
Minutes and seconds passed.
Just before the end of the exam, Qian Chen covered the ramen noodles tightly with a lid, then picked up the plate and walked over to the examiners sitting at the front of the exam room.
The chefs who were still in the finishing stages on the side looked at each other in surprise.
"How can it be so fast!?"
"Maybe I think the topic is too difficult, so I just give up."
A chef who looked to be about thirty years old with the Mediterranean on his head sneered.
"I bragged so much on the Internet, I thought I was a genius, but it turned out to be just a lucky little ghost."
A female chef whispered to a male chef she knew on the side.
"What's going on with the current reviewers of IGO, is this kind of perfunctory guy who doesn't respect cooking and cooking also come in to participate in the assessment!?"
An old chef in his fifties with gray hair shook his head with a disappointed expression.
Qian Chen met everyone's eyes and calmly brought the three porcelain bowls with lids to the examiner.
A middle-aged man with slightly gray hair and a neat black suit sitting on the main seat pretended not to recognize Qian Chen, and reminded Qian Chen with a serious face.
"This candidate, the exam time is not over yet, you can continue...
"Thank you for your kindness, but I think now is the best time to serve it."
With a faint smile on his face, Qian Chen placed the bowl neatly in front of the three examiners.
"Ordinary ramen, please taste it!"
