Episode 150 Next Round of Questions
On the fifth floor of the seaside villa, five or six people sat around a round table to discuss the topics of the next round of competition. 56 Library's new website:
"I'm against restricting the scope of the topic! There is a big gap between different systems of cuisine, and it's not realistic for you to ask a Japanese chef or a Chinese chef to cook Western cuisine. Akimoto retorted.
"It's not fair to some chefs! We want to choose the best chefs, not the best chefs in a particular type of cuisine!" Kojima Yukiharu also raised his hand in disagreement.
Ayumu Akimoto squinted at Kojima Yukiharu, this was the first time in recent times that the two of them were on the same front.
"Actually, I don't think it's too much of a problem to limit the scope. If you look at the 2 matches played today, there were three people who chose to cook Western food, and only one chose to cook Japanese food. Considering the cooking of the group stage, three of the four players who have not been eliminated have cooked Western food. I don't think it will make much of a difference if it's Western food in the next round, right?" Booker touched his chin.
The only player who didn't cook Western food was Hiroshi Katagiri! Kojima retorted.
"Hmm...... Kojima-sensei, you can't favor Katagiri just because he is a player from your group. Booker's eyes narrowed, revealing an intriguing smile.
"Talent...... That's not the reason!" Kojima Yukiharu stood up immediately as if he had been stepped on by his tail.
"That's it, we, as judges, have to make the competition fair!" Ayumi Akimoto stood up from his seat in solidarity with Kojima Yukiharu.
"That's it...... It is. It's our responsibility to ensure the fairness of the game!" Kojima Yukiharu glanced at Ayumi Akimoto gratefully.
"Fair? Are you embarrassed to tell me it's fair?" Booker sneered and took out a piece of paper from his pocket, "In these two games, the two of you all scored 1-1, and the players you support are all players in the same group as you when you were the judge in the group stage, you dare to say that you have no selfishness?"
"I have absolutely no selfish intentions!" Kojima Yukiharu quickly explained.
"And me, too, I just think their food is better. Akimoto also panicked.
"That's it, Mr. Booker, you're slandering us! Kojima clenched his fists and glared at Booker.
Booker sneered and didn't say anything else.
"Ahem, I think that's the end of it. In the future, the two of them should pay attention to the topic of the next round of the competition, right?" an old man sitting on the innermost side coughed dryly and persuaded him.
These topics have been decided for a long time, and if they are changed in the middle of the process, the preparation of the organizers will definitely be affected.
"CEO, it's not that I don't want to, but I've sent a request to change the topic to the Paris headquarters, and I should have an answer soon. Booker looked at the phone in front of him, the screen went black, and he pouted, patiently waiting for the mail from France.
"I object to your request. It's too casual to do that. The CEO frowned, and his face became angry.
actually communicated with the French headquarters secretly without communicating with him, which was too indifferent to him.
"It turns out that the CEO doesn't approve of me either. Booker scratched his head, a helpless expression.
It's no wonder that I agree with you!
The people at the scene looked at Booker with an angry face.
At this moment, Booker's phone screen suddenly lit up, and the email message lit up on the screen.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the mail is coming. The corners of Booker's mouth turned up, he clicked on the email, and then, without stopping, nodded, "CEO, you better take a look at this email for yourself, right?"
The old man took the phone handed by Booker, glanced at the contents on it, his face became ugly, and returned the phone to Booker.
"The topic of the next round of the competition will be changed to Western food. ”
"But CEO, if this is the case, it will be very disadvantageous to Katagiri Hiroshi. Kojima Yukiharu said urgently.
"If this is the French offer, I refuse to be a judge. Ayumu Akimoto protested again.
"Flutter. ”
Booker couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Akimoto looked at Booker puzzled, could it be that what she just said was so funny?
"Changing the subject is just the first thing in this email. Given your performance in the first round, the head office has sent other judges from Europe, that is, you have been laid off. Booker stood up, "Of course, it's not for you, it's about making the game fairer." A little less personal emotion might have a better outcome. ”
Watching Booker walk out of the room, Kojima slammed the table hard. It is a great shame to be directly removed from the position of judge.
After the excitement just now, the old man gradually calmed down, "Actually, Booker's approach still has some truth. ”
"CEO, do you approve of Booker's approach?" Ayumu Akimoto said with a blushing face.
"I don't agree, but the French side has already conveyed the directive, and the title must be changed...... Phew, actually, Booker is not wrong, sometimes, outsiders' evaluation of food is more accurate. It's just that someone is destined to die. The old man lowered his head, and his expression instantly became depressed.
Someone sacrificed......
Katagiri Yang bore the brunt and was the most affected, and Zheng Ke will also have some influence, but the impact is not as great as Katagiri Yang.
Ayumi Akimoto and Yukiharu Kojima glanced at each other, with indescribable depression on their faces.
The next day, sunlight from outside filled the room.
Zheng Ke had just woken up and rubbed his eyes when there was a knock on the door outside.
"Who?" Zheng Ke asked lazily as he got up from the bed.
"Zheng Ke! Hurry up! The title of the competition is out. Absolon was banging on the door outside.
Zheng Ke immediately got up in bed, casually put on a set of casual clothes and a pair of slippers, and opened the door.
"What topic?" Zheng Ke said to the point as soon as he saw Absolon.
"Western main course. Absolon said.
Huh, this time, the topic is completely different from the previous ones. If it were usual, the word 'Western food' would definitely be removed from the title. This kind of topic is very kind to the chef, and no matter what type of cuisine, it is up to the chef to grasp it himself.
This time, the scope of the topic has been narrowed.
Although Zheng Ke's Western food is also good, it is still weaker than Chinese dishes. In contrast, Gao Jian'an, who is familiar with Western food, has a lot of advantages.
"By the way, what is the topic of Senior Sister Mu Jiuzhi?" Zheng Ke asked curiously.
"Western food staple. Absolon also looked helpless.
