The Chef Contest started on the same day as the Federal Top 10 Selection Exam, but the first two rounds of the competition were the preliminary and semi-finals, and they were not broadcast live, so the attention was not high. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Tonight is the Grand Final, where nine chefs from the first two rounds of 200 players will decide the winner, with a prize of up to 10 million federal coins.
In the previous paragraph, the media promoted the chef competition very strongly, coupled with the high prize money, the live broadcast of this competition attracted the attention of countless people. Not only the audience in Quunderland, but also the audience in other cities are paying attention to tonight's finals due to the excessive publicity.
At 6 p.m., the finals kicked off on the top floor of the restaurant, with nine stoves and all the necessary instruments and equipment in the spacious hall.
Tens of millions of viewers landed on the official website of Kwantland TV, watching the number of numbers beating on the virtual screen, and the entire program team couldn't close their mouths with laughter, and the number of viewers tonight has broken the highest ratings in Kwantland City in years.
A young and beautiful host stood in the center of the final venue, talking like a river, and explained the wonderful situation of the first two days of the semi-finals. Finally, she began to introduce the chefs who made it to the finals.
"After two days of competition, nine chefs were selected from 300 chefs to advance to tonight's finals. The nine chefs are Chef Chen Dazhong and Chef Du Yanxin from Zhen Yu Restaurant...... Master Li Bao from Ding Xiangju ......."
Every time she called out a name, a cook dressed in a clean chef's outfit entered the corresponding stove with his assistant.
When all nine chefs came out, the host said, "Now we welcome the representatives of the restaurant where the nine chefs are located." ”
Her words fell, the music sounded, and the heads of several major restaurants walked in, and He Yuntong walked in front with a smile on his face.
Although he just lost 30 million federal coins yesterday, that kind of blow didn't have much impact on him, after all, his son's grades passed the test, and he couldn't be admitted to a military school. And after the competition, Zhen Yu Restaurant will become the leader of the food industry in Kwantland City, and even go one step further, entering the major cities of the entire Moon Chart Star, at that time, 30 million is nothing, and the assets of the He family will increase exponentially.
After He Yun passed, the next person who came in was Mu Xinran from Ding Xiangju, and there was a handsome and gentle young man beside him.
Mu Xinran still looks like she doesn't smile, cold as an iceberg, and it can be seen from the surface that her mood is not very good.
After that, there are the people of the Full Moon Building, Zhiwei Zhai, and Jixian Pavilion, their expressions are very relaxed, with a smile on their faces, and they keep raising their hands to greet the audience who came from the audition.
"Here are the ten judges from tonight! Today's judges come from all walks of life, all of whom are famous gourmets......
Under the introduction of the host, ten people sat in the judges' seat in turn, including men and women, old and young!
Then the host said: "For the fairness of this competition, there are 500 viewers who were randomly selected this afternoon. In each round of the competition, 15 of these 500 people will be randomly selected to taste and score with the judges......"
After everyone entered, the host began to introduce the rules: "There are four rounds of tonight's competition, all of which are self-exerting dishes, each chef brings his own ingredients, brings his own seasonings, makes a total of four dishes, each dish is worth 25 points, and the scores of the last four dishes are added together to finally determine the ranking of this chef competition, and the champion will receive a prize of 10 million federal coins!"
After a slight pause, the host said: "Tonight's game will last for two hours, each round lasts half an hour, and now ....... the timer starts!"
As soon as she gave the order, all the cooks moved and began to process the ingredients.
"While the chefs are preparing, I would like to introduce you to the dishes that the chefs have prepared tonight. What Chef Chen Dazhong of Zhen Yu Restaurant is going to make today is a four-winged flower heron, a golden fish, a moon ginseng with sauce, and a three-flavor soup......"
He Yuntong smiled, Chen Dazhong is the head chef of Zhen Cuisine Restaurant, and these four dishes are also the signature dishes of Zhen Cuisine Restaurant. Compared with Chen Dazhong, the chefs of several other major restaurants are slightly insufficient, and Li Bao of Ding Xianju is even worse.
Glancing at Mu Xinran, who was not smiling next to him, He Yuntong was in a happy mood. He really wanted to thank Mu Xinran, if she hadn't made such a show, how could she let Zhen Yu Restaurant take such a big advantage.
"Huh, what a coincidence!" At this moment, the host in the middle of the venue suddenly exclaimed, with a surprised expression on his face, and said loudly: "The four-course dishes prepared by Chef Li Bao of Ding Xiangju are the same as those prepared by Chef Chen Dazhong, which are also four-winged flower heron, golden fish, moon ginseng with sauce and three-flavor soup!"
"Huh?" He Yuntong was stunned when he heard this, the dishes prepared by Ding Xianglou were actually the same as his, which was completely beyond his expectations.
"This girl is crazy, is she looking for her own death?" He Yuntong said secretly in his heart, looking at Mu Xinran. It just so happened that Mu Xinran also looked at him, and his solemn expression was gone, replaced by a sneer. The two crooked eyes are very beautiful, but they are staring.
He Yuntong chuckled in his heart, and for some reason, he suddenly had bad thoughts. looked up at the young man, and saw that he was also stunned, obviously not knowing Mu Xinran's arrangement.
The persons in charge of several other restaurants were also stunned, Mu Xinran actually chose the signature dish of Zhen Yu Restaurant, which was indeed too unexpected. Their first impression was that Mu Xinran was crazy and ready to break the jar.
The ten judges on the stage, as well as the audience in the audience, were also silent, and everyone could see that there was something wrong between Ding Xiangju and Zhen Shi Restaurant, and it was too obvious that the two chefs were cooking the same dish.
Some spectators' eyes lit up and they suddenly became interested, and this kind of competition is interesting. However, the ten judges had solemn faces, and they had to be cautious when scoring the same dish.
The host is very experienced, so he immediately skipped it after a moment of confusion and continued to introduce the dishes prepared by the chef later. Then he introduced the resumes of the chefs, which can be described as a lotus flower......
"Xinran, you're going to break the jar...... I'm about to return to the family, you still make such a show, spend an extra four million, and I will report it truthfully when I go back!" The young man next to Mu Xinran whispered with a calm face.
"Whatever!" Mu Xinran glanced at the young man and snorted coldly: "The premise is that I will be recruited back!"
"Okay! we'll see!" the young man sneered, not talking.
Half an hour flew by and the first round of the chefs' competition came to an end, filling the competition hall with the aroma of the dishes that made people swallow. In the past half hour, He Yuntong's uneasy feeling became stronger and stronger.
"It's time! The first round is over...... We see that the chefs have finished the dishes. The next time is up to the judges!" the host announced loudly.
Then, a holographic screen appeared, and the names of the people flashed rapidly, and finally the names of fifteen people were frozen.
