Chapter 119: Stranger

A week later, in the morning, I received a phone call from a gastronomic association that I had worked with before.

"Ms. Sha, have you heard about the upcoming food contest in this city?"

"Well, a little bit of that. ”

"Will you attend? We sent you an invitation. ”

"No, it won't. It is estimated that it is another show that does not live up to its name. All the chefs have to act according to the script, and they don't learn from each other at all. And whether it's me, or other well-known chefs who have won Michelin stars, put together for a long time, whether they win or lose, it's embarrassing for each other. ”

"Ms. Sha, the rules of that competition have changed. The competition committee will conduct an audition to select a few special contestants from among the amateurs of cooking. The students are then selected by each Michelin-starred chef and given three months to train. Three months later, these students compete on behalf of their teachers. In this way, you avoid the embarrassment of comparing the star chefs of the food world. Winning is certainly glorious, but losing does not fully represent the master's own level. ”

"Oh? ”

"We hope you will get back to us soon. If you are willing to participate and mentor an ordinary person, I assure you that whether you win or lose, it will raise the profile of the entire Shah. ”

"Okay, I'll think about it. ”

Putting down the phone, the little trick messed in again.

"Go! You have to go. ”

Really, this robot has managed so much since I was blind.

"Why?"

"Because Xiaoji said, you have to go, or you will be completely blind. ”

“…… You always threaten me with this......"

"Anyway, you're lonely, and if you don't go, you won't go in vain. Life is too short, so why not do something you don't want to do while you're blind?"

"As long as you have a lot of crooked reasoning, just go!"

The competition committee has taken great care to arrange a separate villa for each participating team for senior chefs to teach cooking skills to the selected newcomers.

The interior of the villa is spacious and bright, giving me the illusion of entering some high-class hotel.

The marble floors, which are so bright that there is not a trace of dust, there are no frills, and even all the sconces are geometric, and the whole space reflects an orderly and rigorous style.

I walked up the spiral staircase, and there were some modern paintings hanging on the walls, each of which was exactly parallel to the staircase.

As I walked, I thought, who will my apprentice be?

There was a conversation in the living room on the second floor, this voice was hoarse, it sounded familiar, it couldn't be Lao Wang, right?

"Hey, I said, buddy, are you a staff member here, can you tell me who the master you assigned me is?"

"I'll find out when I see you later. ”

"But don't be the grumpy guy at the audition, who drank the soup I cooked, and almost sprayed me all over my head. ”

"That's not accurate, sir. ”

"If it's the chairman of the food association who is kind on the surface but mean on the inside, it won't be great!

"Sir, the president of the gastronomic association doesn't have time to attend, he is the organizer. ”

"Oh, then I'm relieved. ”

I pushed the door open, and the sound inside stopped abruptly.

"I'll go! Let's meet again!"

Strange, why does he call me stupid Bai Tian?

"Sir, this is a three-Michelin-starred chef - Ms. Sha, your master, please be serious. The staff reminded.

"How do you know my name is Silly Bai Tian?"

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, it's not because Xu Hui's monkey is talking to you every day, as soon as I saw you, I was excited, and I shouted out my mouth. They told me that the competition committee had appointed a mentor for me, but I didn't expect it to be you, it's really fate!"

Seeing that we already knew each other, the staff withdrew on their own, leaving the two of us chatting with each other in the huge living room.

Wang told me that he was required to sign a non-disclosure agreement, which meant that he could not tell who and where he studied unless I nodded.

And at the end of this cooking competition, only the top three will announce the name of the master.

It seems that the competition committee has really thought about protecting the reputation of chefs who have been awarded Michelin stars. If you lose, you won't make it public, but if you win, you will tell the world.

Compared with this, what I am more curious about is why Lao Wang can be selected, he obviously just went to the audition site to make trouble......

And after he told me the truth, I almost dropped my jaw from laughter.

His work impressed the judges and made it into the top 10, the top 10 of the most unpalatable.

In order to make the competition fair, the rules of the competition are that the finalists will participate in the competition on behalf of their respective masters under the training and guidance of the masters of the food industry.

If you choose people with excellent cooking skills, although they are excellent, their level is different, and the difficulty of guiding them is different.

But it would be much fairer to choose the worst level, especially if you don't know anything about cooking skills, and start from scratch.

"Aren't you scoffing at this kind of competition? Why, they say you're shortlisted, and you're coming?"

"Master Sha, I didn't say you, aren't you not interested? ”

"I ...... I'm bored, and besides, it's hard for me to refuse a warm invitation......"

"There are only ten people in total, and you will get 10,000 yuan for the top eight, and the prize money for the top six will be doubled. The prize money for the champion is $300,000. Wouldn't it be a great opportunity for me to make a windfall on an electric car? ”

"Well, at your level, it is estimated that you will not even be able to enter the top nine. ”

"Anything is possible. But...... Oops!"

"What?"

"My master, how can you be? I can't see how to be a chef? And you can become the head chef of a Michelin-starred restaurant? This is impossible! This is not scientific! Are you here to cheat and eat and drink?"

"How dare you doubt my abilities. ”

"You can't see with your eyes, how can you cook in the kitchen? Just chopping vegetables or something, ten fingers are not enough for you to cut, and the kitchen is not full of blood? Even if you don't have to chop vegetables, how can you know if the food is cooked if you can't see? Do you know how many seasonings you have added?"

"Hmph, let's see! I have the ability, and when you win the championship, you will doubt my ability!"

"Could it be...... Are you pretending to be blind?"

As soon as he said this, I couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

To date, he was the first person to suspect that I was faking blindness, and the first person to have had even a little intimate contact since I was blind.

It seems that in the days to come, I will have to pay a little attention and not behave too freely, so as not to cause misunderstandings and explanations.

If I told him that I was only half-blind and could see the scene and not people, would he report me to a mental hospital?

Terrible!

It's all to blame...... With less than half a year to go until I regain my sight, I must persevere......
