2242 Act upon hearing the news
Liu Wenhui had watched the video of the game. He was as shocked as the foreigners. If he hadn’t seen the comments, he would have thought that the camera had jammed.
On this occasion, Liu Wenhui directly asked this question that anyone who had seen the video would be confused.
Yuan Zhou said straightforwardly,”actually, these dishes are very simple. Basically, all Chinese people know how to cook them. It’s my first time participating in the European competition. I want to start from the basics. The first dish is the flawless white jade. It’s the chicken tofu pudding from Sichuan cuisines …”
It was relatively simple.
Basically, all the Chinese people knew how to do it.
According to Yuan Zhou’s words, Liu Wenhui came to a shocking conclusion. He was not a human!
He had seen his fair share of ups and downs, so he instantly came back to his senses and asked,””Then, is there anything that you care about about the other foreign chefs?”
“Be it head chef Julian’s moon man’s unique sauce-pouring technique or head chef podraco’s improvement from the classic, it’s rare for him to stick to tradition and keep improving. Besides that, head chef stler’s understanding of food is also very outstanding.” Yuan Zhou said.
Liu Wenhui wasn’t the host of a ‘delicacy’ show, but he must have done his homework before coming. These three people were indeed famous European chefs.
“But head chef Yuan, you still won,” he couldn’t help but add.
Yuan Zhou nodded his head,”um, I won. I’ll use the Chinese dishes.”
While Yuan Zhou was being interviewed, some people were hurrying to the airport.
“Little Wang, what time did you buy the tickets? how many tickets did you get?” An old man about 1.6 meters tall was walking in the spacious airport. Although he had a head of white hair and seemed to be very old, his hands and feet were nimble. He was dragging a suitcase and his steps were like flying. He was not inferior to young people at all.
“I was in a hurry and only managed to buy three tickets for 10:30 pm. There’s still some time left. You and the Vice President will get one each, and director ding will get one. They’re about to reach the airport, so you’ll have to wait for them, President.” Little Wang explained everything in detail on the other end of the phone.
“That’s fine. Let’s go over and take a look first. We’ll set a time with head chef Yuan before we can proceed with the rest. But since we’re leaving, we can’t stop the selection process, understand?” The old man thought for a moment and directly explained.
“Don’t worry, President. I’ll report to you every day.” Little Wang agreed.
The two of them exchanged a few more words before hanging up.
The old man was the chairman of the Hunan cuisine Association, Meng Guangping. This time, he was going to head to Chengdu with the other people of the Association. Speaking of which, this matter was also related to Yuan Zhou.
Meng Guangping hung up the phone and looked around. He didn’t see du Yundong or Ding Yang, so he took out his phone and made another call.
“Toot du du du.”
The call was picked up after a few rings.”President, have you arrived at the airport? what time is your ticket? I’ll come and pick you up.”
It was a young voice on the other end of the phone. It sounded like a young man in his 20s or 30s.
“Little Yu, are you sure that head chef Yuan will be serving Hunan cuisine today?” Meng Guangping asked seriously.
Little Yu immediately said,””That’s right. I confirmed it as soon as I received the news. I even made a trip there personally. Although I didn’t get to eat breakfast, it was indeed a Hunan style breakfast. I also confirmed with the waiter in the restaurant that head chef Yuan indeed said that he would serve Hunan cuisine today.”
“That’s great. Finally, head chef Yuan is going to serve Hunan cuisine. Let’s see how old song shows off in front of me again.” Meng Guangping immediately smiled.
Speaking of which, it was also an account. Previously, in order to develop various cuisines, Yuan Zhou had recruited in-name disciples on a large scale. As long as the cuisines were on the menu, he would take them in. Therefore, the cuisines leading by Cantonese, Sichuan, and Lu cuisines immediately received more attention.
The most important thing was that Yuan Zhou’s culinary skills were really high and he could solve any problem. Therefore, even though he was only an in-name disciple, he had made some progress after a short time.
As for the other cuisines that hadn’t had their turn yet, they couldn’t help but feel itchy in their hearts. They called Zhou Shijie every day to ask how Yuan Zhou’s research on other cuisines was going.
Two years ago, Meng Guangping would definitely be able to make people doubt their lives if he said that Yuan Zhou was good at several cuisines, not to mention all of them. But now, Yuan Zhou’s various performances had already proved that he was an authority in cooking.
It was extremely short to be proficient in a cuisine. In order to not miss the time when Yuan Zhou served the new cuisines, Meng Guangping directly made a scene in front of Zhou Shijie. He had managed to arrange for Xiao Yu of the Hunan cuisine Association to work in the Chengdu chef’s association with great difficulty. His main job was to keep an eye on the master chef Restaurant and see when the new dishes would be served so that he could be informed in time.
It had to be said that Meng Guangping was lucky. Xiao Yu had only been in Rong city for three months and he already had good news.
After a while, Meng Guangping made an appointment with little Yu. If he received the news later, he wouldn’t be able to make it for lunch, but he had to be there for dinner.
Meng Guangping waited for a while before du Yundong and Ding Yang arrived. The three old men’s average age was around 60 years old. It was strange for them to go out together without anyone following them. Although the three of them were not young, their minds were quick and their movements were not affected at all.
It was said to be 20 minutes, and it was 20 minutes. Liu Wenhui’s professional skills were excellent, and he grasped the rhythm very well. He quickly finished within the time range.
“Thank you for your cooperation today, head chef Yuan. I will inform you in advance of the broadcast time.” Liu Wenhui said politely.
“Thank you,” he said. Yuan Zhou nodded his head and thanked her.
This was the first time that Yuan Zhou had directly shown his face for an interview. As for the other interviews, Yuan Zhou usually only accepted recorded interviews.
Of course, he only agreed to interview a few times, so it was easy to distinguish between the two.
When the interview ended, Xiao Guo, Wang Xu and the others all came forward to say hello to Yuan Zhou and then packed up their things, intending to leave.
Yuan Zhou walked them to the door and watched them disappear into the crowd. Only then did he return to the restaurant and go to the second floor to wash up and change his clothes. After that, he went into the kitchen and continued cutting the radishes. He had made some small achievements recently and thus planned to strike while the iron was hot.
“Director Liu, are we going back now?” “What’s the matter?” Xiao Guo asked after they returned to the car and put down the equipment.
There was a reason for little Guo to ask that. During the previous interview, Yuan Zhou had described the dishes he cooked in detail. Then, she felt so ashamed that she wanted to swallow her saliva. If she wasn’t filming at that time, she might have done such an uncouth thing.
“Of course not. It’s not easy to come to Chengdu. We should at least have a meal at master chef Restaurant before going back. Let’s go and line up now.” Liu Wenhui said.
He didn’t hesitate at all. It was obvious that he had already planned it out.
“I heard that the dishes in this small restaurant are very delicious. There are many cuisines here.” Wang Xu’s assistant was a young man in his 20S. He liked to smile and was very lively.
“Indeed. Head chef Yuan is good at six different cuisines. We can choose any dish that we like to eat. However, I can only treat each of you to one dish. If you want to eat anything else, you have to be responsible for it. We can’t be poor.” Liu Wenhui was very generous.
“You can just treat me to one dish. I heard it’s not cheap.” Wang Xu said.
“With head chef Yuan’s reputation, it would be strange if the dishes are cheap.” Old Xue also came over.
Therefore, the group of people discussed where to go for lunch. Adhering to the principle of not falling behind, they immediately came out of the parking lot across the street and planned to line up at Taoxi road.
Because it took them a lot of time to clean up, the flow of people on Taoxi road had obviously increased when they arrived. It was almost time to line up for lunch. Today was the new season, so it was the time when there were many people.
