The 40 kitchen tables are divided into five sections: pastries, desserts, soups, cold cuts and hot cuts. Bai Guochao's number is 39, and his position is in the hot plate area, which is also the row with the largest number of tables.

Under the guidance of the host, Bai Guochao lowered his head and hurriedly walked to the No. 39 kitchen table, and just put down his things, he heard a slight 'sizzling' sound on the table next to him.

It's really a narrow road!

Bai Guochao took a deep breath, because it was Lao Lin who was standing at No. 38 next door!

Zhang Kai sat on the stage with a smile, completely unaware of the turbulent tide under the stage, and the host signaled that all the contestants were already in place, so Zhang Kai coughed lightly, stood up, and began to announce the rules of the competition.

"Ahem", Zhang Kai picked up the microphone and tried the volume, and everyone's eyes in the audience immediately focused on his face.

"Haha, I'll say a few words."

Everyone in the audience immediately pricked up their ears.

"I am Zhang Kai, the owner of Wang Bar, first of all, welcome everyone to participate in this Wang Bar Chef Competition, and the reward for winning is to become an employee of Wang Bar. But whether they are selected or not, all the contestants who participate today will receive a cash subsidy of 500 yuan."

"If you don't choose, you still have the money to get"? I don't know who suddenly shouted. The players in the audience applauded one after another. The applause was warm, rhythmic and continuous.

"Mr. Zhang, good boss"!

"Haha, it's an eye-opener today"!

Bai Guochao also applauded, and at the same time felt happy from the bottom of his heart, the first time he heard that he could still get money if he failed in the interview, and he was 500 yuan as soon as he made a shot.

Bai Guochao thought that even if he was not selected today, he could buffer for a period of time if he took the 500 yuan. He couldn't help but look up at Mr. Zhang on the stage, what kind of mind and bearing is this!

With a smile, he stretched out his hands and pressed them down, signaling that everyone was enough.

So the thunderous applause stopped, and he said, "Since everyone is so enthusiastic, let's pay everyone first."

After Zhang Kai finished speaking, two hostesses immediately walked slowly from the left and right sides with plates, and the plates contained red envelopes. 20 in one plate.

I don't know who roared in his throat, and the chefs in the audience were boiling again.

The red envelope was about to be sent to him, Bai Guochao swallowed a mouthful of saliva, the feeling was excited, nervous, and a little indescribable.

"Sir, this is yours, please keep it".

It's coming, it's finally coming!

"Thank you", Bai Guochao shyly took the red envelope from his small hand, and couldn't wait to open it and take a look, there were five flat red banknotes lying neatly in the red envelope.

Red, what a beautiful color!

Bai Guochao carefully put the red envelope in his hand, and at this time, he suddenly heard discordant laughter from the next place.

"500 yuan, look at what makes you happy, taste your virtue." Chef Lin sneered, turned his head and exchanged words with a chef next to him, and then the two of them erupted into a burst of laughter.

Bai Guochao didn't say anything, he thought, he must behave well after a while.

"Okay, let's talk about the rules of this competition."

"There are a total of 10 promotion places in this competition, divided into 5 categories, each category has a fixed promotion place, 2 in the pastry category, 1 in the desserts, soups and cold dishes, and 4 in the hot dishes. We look forward to your performance."

It's finally time for real!

The jubilant atmosphere in the audience suddenly became tense.

Bai Guochao took a deep breath and observed the expressions of his colleagues on the field, and found that most of them had expressions as serious and nervous as him.

According to Zhang's description, the corresponding promotion places for each category are as follows.

2 pastry chefs, 5 to 2, promotion rate of 40%

1 pastry chef, 3 to 1, promotion rate 33%

1 soup chef, 4 to 1, promotion rate of 25%

1 cold cuts chef, 3 promoted to 1, promotion rate 33%

Bai Guochao's category is hot dishes, and there are a total of 25 hot dish chefs, and only 4 are selected.

Among them, Chef Li of 'Dingzhen Chicken' and Chef Cao of 'Songhelou' are both senior celebrity chefs, who are well-known in the chef industry of Jiaogua City, and are strong contenders for head chefs, with a 100% chance of being selected.

Therefore, Bai Guochao needs to compete with 22 other chefs for the last 2 spots, and the probability of winning is 8%.

A thin layer of sweat appeared in Bai Guochao's palms.

The contestants' suddenly different expressions were fully visible to Zhang Kai on the stage, Zhang Kai smiled slightly, and continued with a smile.

"There is only one criterion for this audition, and that is the food that everyone makes. The quality of the dishes determines the level of the dishes, and even if you are a newcomer, you may have the possibility of impacting the head chef. I know that everyone may encounter unfairness in one way or another in their lives, but when we come to this selection competition, we want to make every contestant feel fair."

Open this sentence, and it is very powerful. The players' originally slightly depressed mood was suddenly lifted up.

Bai Guochao was even moved to tears for a moment, he craned his neck and looked up at Mr. Zhang on the stage, Mr. Zhang's image immediately became tall in his heart, and there was a layer of light around him.

Zhang Kai nodded in satisfaction and snapped his fingers to the audience, and the hostess immediately brought a long tray for Zhang Kai, which was so golden that she couldn't tell what it was. Open it and pick it up, and hold it, and now you can see it clearly, it's a gold belt!

"I have 10 belts in my hand, which are gifts for the 10 players who have made the cut, and I will give one if I qualify. I think it's still commemorative, and I hope you enjoy it. If you don't like it, you can sell it for money."

Bai Guochao was shocked! Gold, waist, belt, and ten at once? This boss is too entrenched.

The reaction of the other players and Bai Guochao was probably the same, and they all had shocked expressions.

Zhang Kai looked at the audience with satisfaction, the atmosphere was harmonious, and the situation was very good, okay.

"Alright, that's all I have to say, you can start doing it, come on"!

The host's voice is high, "Timer - start"!

Just wait for this sentence!

As soon as the host gave the order, the forty cooks immediately got busy.

Start the stove, turn on the fire, put the oil in the pan, fry and fry, boil and stew. The eight immortals crossed the sea and showed their magical powers. For a while, the hall was filled with the sound of cutting boards being chopped. It's a spectacular scene!

He excitedly walked between the tables with his hands behind his back, watching the real-time battle up close, and all the players who passed by showed him a big smile.

"Do it well, come on!" and cheered up the players with a smile on his face.

It feels so good.

It is simply a high-level enjoyment of the judges + invigilators.

You can do more of this kind of activity in the future!

"Oh, Mr. Zhang", the hostess suddenly trotted over with her high heels, "You can't just walk around on the ground."

"Can't"!

"This place is so smoky, what if it smokes you?"

"Huh"? He was stunned for a moment, he really didn't think of this question.

"And if you're here, you'll also affect the players' performance!"

"Players will be nervous when they see you"!

"Please go back to the stage, we have prepared a game console and a high-power power bank for you to pass the time with high quality"!

"Okay", since the host said so, Zhang Kai had no choice but to be good.

"I won't play the game anymore, show me the player's data book."

"Hey, okay!" The host nodded politely, and a quick-handed assistant brought the information book to the table with a quick eye contact.

With a smile, he paced back to his seat and flipped through the information book.

At his request, Consultant Sun selected for him 10 veteran chefs and 30 chefs who were in a mess of cooking, and they were now shuffled and mixed in different categories in proportion.

Zhang Kai quickly sorted them into categories, and then elbowed Wang Tao, who was beside him.

"Come, Xiao Wang, in order to save time, I propose that we try the dishes in groups."

"Heh, Mr. Zhang, this is so fresh, how can it be divided"?

"It's very simple, I will re-appreciate the results of these ten, and you will focus on the results of these thirty." Zhang Kai pushed the rookie's information to Wang Tao's side.

Wang Tao didn't know what to do, took the information and accepted it happily, and didn't say anything.

Hehehehe
