Episode 301 Grouping
What Zheng Ke was worried about did not appear. However, the last two players in Group B are still very strong, and they are participants who have been directly invited by the organizing committee.
It's a lot more difficult to qualify from Group B than Group A, so I hope both of them can have an extraordinary performance, right?
Zheng Ke and Catherine glanced at each other, and they saw helplessness in each other's eyes.
Zheng Ke, Catherine and Cheng Huaizhi have not yet been drawn, which means that at least two of the three people are in a group. The worst outcome is a trio in the same group.
If that's the case, then one is destined to be eliminated in the group stage, which they don't want.
"Next, the players from Group C were drawn, and the first person was Luke Gerrard. Tang Du said.
Luke wiped the sweat from his forehead, and then Que Zhengqing's name appeared in his ears.
Que Zhengqing and Luke looked at each other, and both of them showed disdain on their faces.
In the final round of the elite school qualifying round, the duel between Que Zhengqing and Luke ended in Que Zhengqing's defeat, and that game almost collapsed Que Zhengqing.
Now that he meets Luke in a narrow way, Que Zhengqing will certainly not give up this opportunity for revenge.
Tang Du read the names of two more people, the American and European players.
Zheng Ke, Catherine and Cheng Huaizhi's hearts immediately beat faster.
If the last spot is not one of the three of them, then one of them is destined to leave in the group stage.
Therefore, the three of them looked at Tang Du intently, and saw him pull out a small ball from the glass box, take out the note inside, unfold it, and take a look.
Who will it be?
The minds of the three people invariably popped up this question.
Tang Du took a deep breath and reversed the note, "The last player in Group C is, Zheng Ke. ”
"Whew. ”
Zheng Ke breathed a sigh of relief.
Catherine and Cheng Huaizhi's faces were also a lot more relaxed. The two of them are in a group, which is already a very bad result, if you add Zheng Ke, it is simply a group of death.
Group D is a tough situation, but with some care, at least qualifying should be fine.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this is the group of groups in this group stage, and the top two qualify. As for the matchup table for the knockout round, I have already written about it. Next, we will announce the competition questions for tomorrow's exam. The young man waited until he was finished, and then continued.
"Is the title going to be announced now?" asked one European player.
The young man nodded and replied in English, "That's right." Ladies and gentlemen, in order to make it easier for you to prepare your dishes and for you to have a great performance tomorrow, we have prepared 20 practice rooms on the first floor for you to prepare for tomorrow's competition. And, because tomorrow's game is 1 p.m., even if you stay up all night, you'll still have a few hours off. ”
When the contestants heard the young man's words, they immediately exclaimed.
"It was great that we were given a lab room in advance. ”
"Now, it's time to show your strength. ”
"Tomorrow, I will be the one who will qualify. ”
"Haha, it's me!"
……
Zheng Ke shook his head gently, more than ten hours of preparation time can reduce the shortcomings of some chefs in dishes, but for the skilled chefs, this little time can allow them to cook perfect dishes. Therefore, for players who are not solid in cooking, a little preparation time is not necessarily a good thing.
When the chatter of the contestants subsided, the young man continued: "You don't have to be too anxious. As you know, starting with the knockout rounds, each round has 3-4 days to prepare. During this period, we will provide the necessary ingredients and practice rooms for the advanced players. The eliminated players can still stay at the Xingli Hotel for free. You can plan your trip according to your own plans. ”
When Zheng Ke heard this, he nodded again and again. I have to say that the Huaxia Division has made a lot of preparations for this competition, and the contestants should have a good experience.
At this time, a staff member handed over a document to the young man.
The young man removed the seal and pulled out a blank piece of paper from it.
"Next, I'm going to announce the topic of the group stage. The young man looked at the blank paper and said, "The topic of group A is pasta, group B is the main dish, group C is soup, and group D is dessert...... Okay, please arrange your time reasonably according to your own situation, and gather in the lobby at 11 am tomorrow. If you would like to use the practice room provided by the hotel, please register at the front desk on the first floor. During the preparation of the dishes by the contestants, reporters are prohibited from interviewing the contestants without communicating with the contestants, and the violators will be disqualified from the interview. Well, that's the end of the-blue, and I wish you all the best of luck in tomorrow's race. ”
After the young man finished speaking, he bowed slightly to the contestants, and the door of the conference hall quietly opened unconsciously.
When the contestant saw the door to the conference room open, he turned around and left.
Zheng Ke left late, paid special attention to the list on the blackboard, and finally fell on Group A.
"What's wrong?" Catherine looked at Zheng Ke in confusion.
"Nothing...... I'm looking at the players in Group A. Zheng Ke said.
"Group A?" Catherine subconsciously glanced at the players in Group A.
"Yes, if nothing else, my opponent is one of Bayer seniors and Liu Haolin. Whoever it is depends on me and their ranking. It's you, it's possible to meet Brother Fu in the first round. ”
Zheng Ke glanced at the list of groups B and D, there must be a wonderful game in the first round, and there will be a battle between Fu Xiuyun, Catherine and Cheng Huaizhi. Of course, if he's not careful, he might run into Bayer as well.
Group stage
"I'm not afraid of him?" Catherine pouted, and then glanced at the list of Group B, "I won the first place, shouldn't I go to the top half?" Fu Xiuyun should be able to win the first place in Group B, in this case, he will be in the bottom half." Xiao Ke, you will have to face the winner of the two of them when the time comes...... Do you have a chance to win?"
"Maybe, I'm going to the upper half?" Zheng Ke teased.
"Hey, I'm not afraid of you. Catherine wrinkled her nose, not taking Zheng Ke's words seriously at all.
Zheng Ke is in Group C and is completely unlikely to lose to Que Zhengqing and Luke.
"Brother Xiao Han asked me to cook Western food. Zheng Ke whispered.
Zheng Ke and Catherine mentioned the matter of the Oriental School Park, so Catherine also had a general understanding of Xiao Han.
"Huh, Western food?" The smile on Catherine's face disappeared and she looked at Zheng Ke, "Are you okay?"
"Who knows? Anyway, I haven't competed in Western food and other cuisines, so tomorrow, I'll try the two of them on the test. ”
"Be careful not to lose. Catherine grimaced at Zheng Ke.
"I don't think I'm that lucky. Zheng Ke waved his hand and took Catherine out of the arena, "By the way, are you going to the practice room?"
"Of course I do, but I probably won't stay long. If you sleep too late, you will have dark circles under your eyes. Catherine said.
"I envy you, I guess I'm going to have to stay up late. Zheng Ke scratched his head.
To cook Western food that is no less than that of Que Zhengqing and Luke, Zheng Ke really has to think carefully about how to prepare it.
Liu Haolin watched Zheng Ke and Catherine walk out of the conference room, then glanced at the grouping on the blackboard and clenched his fists tightly.
