The meeting dispersed, and a woman stood beside Chen Xiandong, the speaker of the speaker.

"Xiandong, your speech on the rostrum today is really handsome. ”

Fan Wenyin took off her sunglasses and looked at Chen Xiandong opposite, with a smile in her eyebrows.

Chen Xiandong handed Fan Wenyin a cocktail of his own making, "I have won the prize! I am a contestant from the host country, so I have the opportunity to speak, there are many masters in this competition, and I may not have achieved much good results." ”

Fan Wenyin took the initiative to hold Chen Xiandong's wrist, "Trust me, you will definitely be able to." As long as you can get into qualifying, I'll give you a huge surprise. ”

Chen Xiandong's eyes showed a look of surprise, "What surprise?

"Think beautiful!" Fan Wenyin pouted, "At most, I will only agree to announce our relationship to the public." ”

Chen Xiandong grabbed Fan Wenyin's wrist and kneaded it gently, "That's pretty good, that will discourage many opponents, right?"

Fan Wenyin squinted and glared at Chen Xiandong, "How can there be any opponent, you actually doubt me." ”

Chen Xiandong hurriedly smiled, "How could it be, I'm just joking." You're a famous actor, and if it's exposed, it will have an impact on your popularity, right?"

Fan Wenyin's face showed a serious look, "Xiandong, in fact, I don't care about that at all, if it weren't for the requirements of the brokerage company, I would have been willing to disclose our relationship a long time ago." If you win the game, it's different. You have a reputation, and the economic company will consider using your popularity to help me increase my exposure. ”

Chen Xiandong sighed softly, "I see! However, I can really hold hands with you openly, I don't care about anything else." ”

Fan Wenyin was full of anticipation, "So you must come on." ”

Fan Wenyin is a third-tier actress in Singapore, and as Singaporean TV dramas shrink in the Chinese market, actors like Fan Wenyin are far inferior to Chinese artists.

From the perspective of income, Fan Wenyin's income is even less than Chen Xiandong, so Fan Wenyin has always hesitated to choose Chen Xiandong as his life partner.

Of course, Fan Wenyin's appearance is not bad, his temperament is good, there is no shortage of excellent suitors, and rich people who are richer than Chen Xiandong also abound.

"Let's go shopping!" Fan Wenyin said with a smile.

"Aren't you afraid of being photographed by entertainment reporters?" Chen Xiandong was excited, and at the same time a little surprised.

"Of course it's not you and I going shopping, and my assistant. When you wear a mask, you can be my bodyguard, remember not to do intimate gestures, that's good. ”

"Well, it's not easy to go shopping with you. ”

"Hmph, if you don't like it, you can refuse. ”

"I just said it casually, but I was actually very happy. You see how sincerely I laugh. ”

Half an hour later, Chen Xiandong was not happy at all, he underestimated Fan Wenyin's enthusiasm for shopping and his spending power for shopping sprees.

Fan Wenyin visited top brand clothing stores, and the prices of clothes were frighteningly expensive. Chen Xiandong's two credit cards were maxed out by Fan Wenyin.

Although his flesh hurt incomparably, Chen Xiandong still behaved calmly and told himself in his heart.

Fan Wenyin is testing himself, and he is reluctant to let the child trap the wolf.

After this night, Fan Wenyin no longer regarded Chen Xiandong as a spare tire, and felt that he could move closer to his future partner.

A plus for Chen Xiandong, his talent and talent in cooking are incomparable to others.

At least Fan Wenyin's parents think that Chen Xiandong is a good man suitable for living at home.

In the face of Fan Wenyin's encouragement, Chen Xiandong was like being beaten with chicken blood.

This night, Chen Xiandong lay on the bed tossing and turning.

He was nervous for tomorrow's game and had a lot of images of his failures in his mind.

He was also looking forward to what would happen after the victory, fantasizing that he had qualified for the World Championship and that he had also been crowned with beauty.

Suffering from gains and losses, he has insomnia!

......

It is not only Chen Xiandong who suffers from insomnia, but also many people.

Everyone is a famous chef who has become a family and is a top chef in the culinary field, but still wants to go further, and this competition is undoubtedly the best springboard.

Of the five continents, only 45 people entered the final stage, of which Oceania was given only five places because of the relatively small number of countries.

These forty-five people will compete for the ranking of the dragon list, once you enter the list, it means that your future is promising, and the catering groups of all countries will chase you, racking their brains to dig you into the command at any cost.

In the first round of the knockout round, the competition of 100 into 20 began, in order to protect the seeded players, the organizing committee drew up ten seeded players, and arranged them in the ten groups of the knockout round.

In other words, there is a half probability that the remaining people will meet seeded players in the top 20.

The strength of these seeded players can be recognized by the conference, and their strength cannot be underestimated, and for these seeded players, it is natural to be able to avoid other strong opponents.

Sun Shichao, as a seeded player, enjoyed this benefit, glanced at his group, there was no familiar name, and sighed in his heart.

In addition, Ye Honglei also got the seed card, and there are no strong opponents with the ten people in the group with him.

Qiao Zhi is destined to meet the seeded players in the knockout round, so he hopes that he will not meet Ye Honglei and Sun Shichao, so that a civil war can be avoided.

Luck is not good, not bad, drawn to the fifth group, staggered with Ye Honglei and Sun Shichao, but the seeded player in the fifth group is Chen Xiandong, the representative of the new country who spoke at the opening ceremony.

And Qiao Zhi had to meet Chen Xiandong in the first round.

Chen Xiandong, no matter whether his strength is strong or not, he has at least a big advantage in terms of location, and if he wants to compete with him, he still has to spend a lot of energy.

Tang Qi carefully studied the opponents of the three and encouraged: "Teacher Ye and Shi Chao have both obtained seed cards, but you have to be very careful, because some dark horses will be killed in every competition. Because those who make the rules do not know much about the situation of everyone, and the strength of the master may be wrongly underestimated. Therefore, you must be cautious, guard against arrogance and rashness, do not capsize in the gutter, and strive to enter the qualifying round smoothly.

As for Qiao Zhi, although your opponent is very strong, I think with your strength, as long as you play normally, you will definitely be able to pass the test easily. ”

Judging from Tang Qi's tone, he was more worried about Ye Honglei and Sun Shichao.

Sun Shichao has an understanding of Qiao Zhi's strength, and the two have fought each other after all, but Ye Honglei has only heard of Qiao Zhi, and he is still a little worried about Qiao Zhi.

"Qiao Zhi, I have studied all the contestants participating in this competition, and I will send you the ten people in your group, their characteristics and specialties. You should research it as soon as possible, so that you can know yourself and your opponent. Ye Honglei said in a deep voice.

Ye Honglei is a person who doesn't like to talk very much, but he didn't expect that he cared about himself when he opened his mouth, and Qiao Zhi also felt warm in his heart, "Thank you, Mr. Ye." ”

"The three of us represent Huaxia, and now we are a team and a collective, one is prosperous, one is lost, everyone must support each other and move towards the goal. Ye Honglei said very seriously.

He was the oldest of the three, so he was qualified to say such things.

Tang Qi saw Ye Honglei cheering everyone up, although he knew that he didn't know much about Qiao Zhi's situation, but he was still moved by Ye Honglei's character, "You don't have to be too nervous, you can definitely go into battle with a light car." ”

The expo hall, which covers an area of more than 4,000 square meters, is divided into ten competition areas.

A number of spectators gathered in each area, and some people carried cameras to record the scene and relay it to the spectators outside the stadium.

Because Chen Xiandong is the host player, in the fifth division, many people are paying attention,

"Chen Xiandong's luck is good, it seems that the strength of most people in the fifth division is very average. ”

"Not necessarily, I think that Thai chef is very good, very old, generally an old chef, experienced, and mentally strong. ”

No one paid attention to Qiao Zhi because he had no sense of existence......

Others think that Qiao Zhi will be lost.

But Qiao Zhi's true thoughts in his heart are: beautiful......

Qiao Zhi came to the fifth division, and there were exactly ten players in the background.

Chen Xiandong sat in the corner, looking very withdrawn, but his eyes were firm, as if he was thinking about something, and he looked very forced.

Qiao Zhi found a place to sit down, took out his mobile phone, glanced at the information that Ye Honglei had just sent, corroborated it with his own intelligence, and found that the content of the information was very different.

Tan was born into a middle-class family in Singapore, the son of a politician and a teacher. After Chen Xiandong finished university in Xinguo, he went to France to study, and when he worked in a French restaurant, he fell in love with cooking, and after getting his diploma, he did not engage in professional work, and refused the invitation of two well-known international companies to start from the bottom in a two-Michelin-starred restaurant.

Because of his talent for cooking, Chen Xiandong quickly went from apprentice to head chef, and he also experienced first-hand the process of upgrading from a two-Michelin-starred restaurant to a three-star restaurant.

His father died of illness and his mother became seriously ill, so Tan had to give up his job in a restaurant and return to Singapore to work and take care of his mother while working.

His caution impressed his former boss, who invested in a restaurant in Xinguo for him.

Through his own efforts, Chen Xiandong successfully turned that restaurant into a one-star restaurant, and is now sprinting to a two-star restaurant.

Although Chen Xiandong studied French cuisine, he incorporated an understanding of East Asian cuisine, so he created a very unique style that has many loyal customers in the new country.

Chen Xiandong is ready to open a second branch, and the site selection has been completed.

Chen Xiandong's dishes have the dual attributes of romance and pragmatism, and he prefers to use curry and cheese.

The fifth division will have a round in the morning, and only one of the five players in the first round of eliminations will advance, and the second round will be set in the afternoon, which is a one-on-one competition.

Ten people draw tickets and choose the number of matches.

Qiao Zhi looked at the list on the screen, he played in the first round, and the same competition was the host player, speaking representative, and seeded player Chen Xiandong.

Qiao Zhi was not too surprised.

Sooner or later, there will be a battle with Chen Xiandong in the knockout round, wouldn't it be better to meet early?
