Episode 217

"Isn't it good to have too many people?" Ueda Takeshi asked puzzled when he saw Zheng Ke's face become gloomy. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

"It's not that it's bad to have a lot of people. Rather, if there are too many people, it will be a burden for us and the judges. How many cooks do you need?" asked Takeshi Ueda.

"The two restaurants combined, about thirty people. Ueda Takeshi did the math slightly.

"And how many days are you going to compete?"

"Two days. ”

"Two days is not enough, three days. Zheng Ke roughly estimated the flow of the game.

"Three days, is it going to be that long?" Ueda opened his mouth.

"Absolutely. On the first day, 130 people were eliminated. On the second and third days, from the remaining 50 people, the appropriate chef is selected, and the 30 chefs are needed...... Did you borrow any equipment or anything?"

"Borrowing 80 operating tables for these people to take two exams should be enough, and the ingredients are well prepared. Takeshi Ueda explained the general situation.

Zheng Ke nodded, he had no experience in holding competitions before, and many times, he could only draw a scoop according to the gourd, so he only hoped that there would be no major mistakes this time.

"On the day of the competition, did any media promote us?" Zheng Ke asked another difficult point.

"Yes. We have agreed with Foodie Magazine that they will produce a supplement that will be released with the next issue of the magazine. ”

Needless to say, this is another significant expense, and although it has an effect, it is not an immediate one. Its influence is more in the industry and food lovers, but this step is very helpful in building the brand.

"In addition, I also invited three famous food anchors from the TWIT live streaming platform, and they will broadcast the whole game live. Eizan Ezumi also said.

Live streaming platform?Food anchor?

Zheng Ke patted his head, why didn't he think of this?

"Ruishan, your idea is not bad. ”

Not everyone who watches the live broadcast can afford to live in the Garden of Colored Leaves, but its audience is much larger than that of "Gourmet", and the publicity effect is better than that of "Gourmet".

As long as the Court of Colored Leaves can lay a reputation among the general population and build a brand in the industry, the Court of Colored Leaves has a good chance to go to the whole country.

The three of them sat together, discussing the plan carefully, and before they knew it, it was already night.

Asami wandered around the room bored, and was about to go out for a walk, when suddenly two people were about to go inside.

"Chef Shiraishi, please go this way, our general manager is working here. "Oishi Haruna walked in the front, followed by a chef who was not too tall, it was none other than Ryuichi Shiraishi.

"White ...... Senior Shiraishi?" Asami hurriedly bowed to Shiraishi Ryu, and then stood aside helplessly.

Shiraishi didn't expect a girl to call him, so he turned his head in astonishment and saw Asami, who was slightly uneasy.

"You are ......" Bai Shiryuichi frowned, he had seen this girl, but he couldn't remember what her name was for a while.

"My name is Asami Sugisaki. Asami introduced herself.

"Oh, I'm sorry, my mind was blank just now, and I didn't think of anything. "Ryuichi Shiraishi is curious why Asami is here, is she also helping out at this hotel?

"Nope. It was me who said hello suddenly, it was too abrupt. Asami also apologized.

"Senior Shiraishi, you're really early. ”

Zheng Ke, Ezuya Ruiyama, and Takeshi Ueda also stood up from their seats.

"Phew, I know you kid, I'm unlucky to pull me from Tokyo. Shiraishi Ryuichi complained.

But complaining is complaining, but anyone with a discerning eye can see that the relationship between Bai Shi Longyi and Zheng Ke is very good.

"Thank you, Senior Shiraishi, for your compassion for the junior. Zheng Ke introduced Takeshi Ueda with a smile.

"By the way, Chef Shiraishi hasn't eaten yet, right? Takeshi Ueda rubbed his hands together and asked Ryuichi Shiraishi.

Bai Shilong nodded, "By the way, who else are the judges you invited besides me?"

"Shino Suga, the editor-in-chief of Gourmet magazine, and Naoah Adachi, the former chef of the star-rated restaurant 'Akiike'. Zheng Ke said.

"Eh, Adachi-sensei is here too, and Editor-in-Chief Suga, what method are you using?" Shiraishi looked at Takeshi Ueda in astonishment.

Takeshi Ueda was a little embarrassed, "Mr. Shiraishi, these judges are all found by Zheng Ke. ”

"He, how could he know these people?" Bai Shilong waved his hand, but when he saw Ueda Takeshi nodding again and again, and then looked at the seriousness on Zheng Ke's face, he realized that Ueda Takeshi was not lying, "Zheng Ke, how about the two of us sleeping in the same room today? I have something to talk about for you." ”

"Huh?" Zheng Ke was stunned for a moment, immediately lowered his head, rubbed his hands, and was a little embarrassed, "Senior, my orientation in that regard is normal." ”

"I'm normal, too...... Phew, you kid almost took me into the ditch, I have something to discuss with you. Bai Shi Longyi's face twitched twice, and he wanted to knock Zheng Ke the two chestnuts.

For dinner, Hitoshi Kuriyama personally prepared 10 exquisite dishes.

When the last plate of food was served on the table, Ren Kuriyama deliberately ran over and said hello to Ryuichi Shiraishi.

"Eh, why are you here?" asked Shiraishi Ryuchi in surprise.

"Hey...... On the way back to school, I saw that Mr. Ueda was looking for a chef, so I came over and gave it a try, but I was hired. ”

Bai Shilongichi said with a little regret: "I have also heard about you. It can only be said that Nakai Kiyomi does things too much and takes a fancy to interests. It's a shame that you can't work in Tokyo. ”

"I can't say the same, if it weren't for Mr. Nakai, I wouldn't have grown so fast. People who like to commit are not trustworthy, and more importantly, I met Mr. Zheng here, and he also taught me a lot. Ren Kuriyama took a deep breath and spoke his heart.

"Senior Shiraishi, try it, how far is there still a gap between Kuriyama Ren's cuisine and the star chef. Zheng Ke struck while the iron was hot and immediately pushed Li Shanren out.

"I knew that if you didn't have a good heart, then I would be a free judge. Bai Shilong glanced at Zheng Ke, but still picked up the knife and cut off a piece of steak.

The steak is medium-rare, charred on the outside and tender on the inside, and under the bite of the teeth, the rich gravy instantly fills the mouth, and every cell seems to have life, hitting the taste buds of Shiraishi Ryuichi. The delicate and soft beef, which does not need to be chewed carefully, melts in the mouth, and enters the throat along the tongue, where the rich gravy reverberates in the mouth.

Bai Shilong's eyes lit up, and he looked at Kuriyama Ren in surprise: "This dish is very good." ”
