The World Baking Contest is a bit long and monotonous, it has neither the fun of a variety show, nor the intensity and tension of a sports competition, and it needs to maintain a certain amount of quiet throughout the competition, which is very boring for the audience with less patience.

Some viewers just came for the appearance of the baking little brother and Pu Yucheng, but no matter how good-looking people are, they will eventually run out of patience when they look at baking that they can't understand at all in a quiet atmosphere.

Gradually, a part of the audience finally got up and left the scene, they just came to see the two famous bakers, who didn't really like to watch the baking competition, and their departure did not affect the scene.

At the same time, TV ratings have remained stable and are steadily rising, and cinematographers at Kyoto and Modo are looking for topical or dramatic bakers to shoot.

Not to mention the shots of the most famous Lou Qingyu and Pu Yucheng, whether it is beating eggs, stirring, or kneading dough, the movements are as natural as flowing water, the movements are as precise as machines, and every little detail is carefully arranged and dressed, and the pictures taken are extraordinarily good-looking.

Secondly, the photographer's lens passed more often, a blonde young baker from country F and a long-legged baker from country H, these two people were favored by photographers for no more than two reasons, one is that they are good-looking, and the other is that their legs are particularly long.

And Joyce, a baker from country F, even in the eyes of a group of blondes, his appearance is still the most prominent one, of course, the strength of this baker cannot be underestimated, he is also a disciple of Marcus, according to Huaxia, this is Pu Yucheng's senior brother.

In the end, some of the bakers who were occasionally patronized by photographers either shocked their faces because they threw the basin on the floor, or because the flour got on their faces and turned into big flowers, caught these embarrassing things and got a lot of laughter from the audience in front of the TV set.

In this process, Zheng Hongyan also gave the audience some introduction to Napoleon cake, "The construction of Napoleon cake is very simple, basically the structure of the crust and filling, but the difficulty of making it is known as one of the most difficult French dessert cakes. ”

"Because the baker needs to add layers of fine and smooth cream to the crispy puff pastry, and keep the crispy side of the puff pastry to affect the taste, which requires a high level of baking. ”

For this reason, Napoleon cakes are also known as the "strongest king" of baking circles. ”

As the clock ticked by, the seasoned bakers were in the final stages of setting up, from innovative products such as strawberries, blueberries and raspberries to traditional ones made with whipped cream or custard sauce.

"Ding"

The bell placed on the table was rang, and the audience was shocked, and their eyes carefully searched for which baker was the first to finish, at this time, a number appeared on the screen, number 268, a baker from country Y.

Soon, with the help of the staff, he brought the eleven Napoleon cakes he made to the table of the judges, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, "Hello judges, I am a contestant from No. 268, this is the classic vanilla Napoleon cake I made, please enjoy it slowly." ”

The attitude of the player in country Y is quite polite, but the slightly high chin still reveals his arrogance, a pair of blue eyes are shining, and his eyes are watching the eleven judges taste slowly, and the live camera is also aimed at the looks of the judges at this time.

At this time, the director in charge of the scene prompted the judges to say a comment or two on the headphones, Marcus only took a bite and slowly put down the fork, and commented calmly as usual, "Very good, it's a standard Napoleon cake." ”

When it was Fang Jing's turn, he made a simple evaluation, "The crispy puff pastry is handled better." ”

"Not bad. ”

"Very good!"

The judges' comments were basically brief, and they did not reflect a great preference for likes and dislikes, which also disappointed the contestants who secretly followed here.

After the judges wrote down the scores on the score sheet and handed them over to the staff for registration, the Y native smiled and nodded, "Thank you for the judges' scores." Then he sat in the lounge area on the other side of the field and waited, the opponent he matched had not yet finished the cake, and only when the ratings of both men came out could he know who should stay and who should leave.

One after another, people submitted their works to the judges, and soon the first contestant to be eliminated came out, it was a small African country, and the black brother cried on the spot when he learned that he was eliminated, he was the only one in their country who was eligible to participate, but he didn't even survive the first round.

Slowly, more and more people were eliminated, and the first eliminated player in Huaxia also came out, a five-star baker from the Northeast, this Northeast baker was also not very lucky, and his opponent was Joyce.

The two were basically completed at the same time, and after the ratings one after the other, they were soon announced to be eliminated, and because they were the first to be eliminated in Huaxia, the Northeast player's shots have become a little more.

The audience at the scene also noticed this scene, and the audience, which was originally a little too dull, finally remembered to talk in a low voice at this time.

"Ah, is this Northeast man the first to be eliminated, is it that the baker in country F is too strong?"

"Not exactly, it's just that this big brother's luck is not very good, just against the last king opponent, the blonde handsome guy is very strong, he is a close disciple of Marcus, and he is a popular candidate to win the World Baking Competition. ”

"So who are the hot candidates in our country?"

“... It doesn't seem to be. ”

Because of this answer, the scene fell silent again, as long as anyone who understands the current situation in Huaxia's baking circle, they all know what the situation is.

Compared with the players sent out by Huaxia to participate in the competition this year, compared with some traditional baking powerhouses such as country F, country Y, and country A, Huaxia has no popular candidates this year, even if Pu Yucheng, who returned from country F, may have less probability of winning the championship than his senior brother Joyce.
