Chapter Seventy-Eight: Annihilation
"This year's competition, how can you suddenly play this hand! Why did you start the knockout round early? Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info "Looking at the latest notice, Qianhi Xiangzi couldn't help but cover his head and wail.
"But it doesn't seem to have much of an impact on us, and we were able to finish the game earlier and go back to Neon." Mizuhara Fuyumi on the side is very open, anyway, according to their strength, it is estimated that it is only one or two rounds of tours, after all, there are dessert masters from all over the world who come here, and there are very few chefs like them who are not specialized in desserts.
"Senior Sinomiya is still as calm as ever." Looking at Kojiro Shinomiya, who was unmoved, Guan Shouping on the side said with some emotion.
"It's not uncommon for tournaments to start early, but it's not uncommon, and you think that everyone else is like you, waiting until you officially arrive at the venue to start trying out the cooking?" Kojiro Shinomiya looked at the complaining Hinata ko, snorted lightly and pushed his glasses and said.
Some chefs, in order to wait for this competition, will even prepare months or even more than a year in advance.
Like Hinata and the others, most of them came with the idea of seeing and understanding when they arrived at the competition venue.
Hearing Shinomiya Kojiro's words, Li Xiaoran on the side couldn't help but nod lightly.
This kind of world-class dessert competition, if it can win the championship, will not only bring the benefits of fame, it can be said that it will be fame and fortune, and all kinds of sponsors will come to flock to it.
"But Li Sang, where do you go all day? I leave early and return late every day, so I can't really be visiting New York! Looking at Li Xiaoran with some curiosity, Qianri Xiangzi shifted the topic to Li Xiaoran.
"That's not true, it's just learning cooking from Kohei seniors." Li Xiaoran shook his head, and he didn't want to hide Kohei Joichiro's thoughts.
"Kohei? Does it have anything to do with Kohei Sojin? Hearing the familiar surname in Li Xiaoran's mouth, Shinomiya Kojiro's eyebrows raised slightly and asked.
"It's Chuangzhen's father, but there is another identity, and it's the second seat of the far moon with the predecessors of Dojima." Li Xiaoran didn't think about hiding the identity of Kohei Joichiro, and said directly.
"Seiichiro Caiha?" Hearing Li Xiaoran's words, Kojiro Shinomiya was slightly stunned and then said.
Unlike Dojima Gin, for Kohei Joichiro, who left the distant moon halfway, Kojiro Shinomiya had only heard of it in some sources.
Moreover, when Kojiro Shinomiya went to France to study cooking, the name of Seiichiro Honba in the international culinary world had passed, and only some magazines mentioned it.
"That's right." Nodding, Li Xiaoran smiled and showed the photo with Koichiro Kohei on his phone to Kojiro Shinomiya.
Speaking of which, taking photos with the celebrity chefs he has met is still some of Li Xiaoran's small interests.
Including Yelena, Amriliucas, Kojiro Shinomiya and Hinata Himata, Li Xiaoran has taken photos with them.
"Then take advantage of your opportunities, there are not many such opportunities." Kojiro Shinomiya looked at Li Xiaoran and said seriously.
Kojiro Shinomiya, who once came to France alone, naturally knows how difficult it is to get this kind of guidance, and how much effort he has put in to gain a foothold in France and climb to the point where he is now.
Hearing Shinomiya Kojiro's words, Li Xiaoran also nodded lightly.
I was able to get to this point, not simply relying on the help of the system, among which Kojiro Shinomiya and the guidance of Xie in the Zhonghua Building have been of great help.
"But I really want to see the strength of this Xinghei senior." Hinata on the side also said with a little expectation.
The Mizuhara Fuyumi on the side also nodded in agreement, including Kojiro Shinomiya, who was also very interested.
"I can talk to Kohei seniors about this, but I don't think Kohei seniors should mind." Li Xiaoran touched his head and said.
"Let's talk about this, but tomorrow, it's the official start of the knockout round, have you decided what to cook?" Kojiro Shinomiya looked at everyone.
"I've already figured out what kind of food to make." Hearing Kojiro Shinomiya's words, everyone nodded lightly, although dessert is not a strong point, but as for what kind of food to make, everyone has already prepared.
The next day, the competition officially began, and the venue of the preliminary round was not the Palace Hotel in New York, but the exclusive venue of the local restaurant in New York.
Generally, the elimination stage of large-scale events is carried out in this kind of special cooking hall that can accommodate dozens or even hundreds of people.
Only after the final stage will the venue be transferred to the Palace Hotel in New York.
It has to be said that in just a few days, ten people from hundreds of people have to be selected to participate in the final competition, which seems very unprofessional and compact to outsiders.
However, for Li Xiaoran and other chefs, there is no big surprise.
The cuisine at the selection tournament is not limited to the subject matter, which is also called indiscriminate cuisine.
Dishes that have been prepared for a year or more are just a key to being able to pass the selection and officially enter the top 10.
And after they really pass the selection, what awaits them is the competition of propositions.
Next......
Li Xiaoran, who is still learning cooking from Kohei Joichiro, has already received news from Hinata and them.
Everyone, including Kojiro Shinomiya, didn't even pass the first round of the trials.
On the first day of the knockout match, everyone went on stage together, and then they were eliminated together, looking at the message sent by Qianri Xiangzi, Li Xiaoran couldn't help but be speechless for a while.
"This is really ......" Li Xiaoran was not much surprised that they were not selected by Qianhi Xiangzi, after all, he was not a chef who was good at this, and he had not been prepared.
Shinomiya Kojiro's words, Li Xiaoran was a little surprised, originally Li Xiaoran thought that with Shinomiya Kojiro's strength, not to mention entering the final ten-person main competition, but he didn't expect that even Shinomiya Kojiro was brushed down in the first round.
After all, although the 'Sabayong' made by Kojiro Shinomiya at that time was not much different from the dessert made by Amriliucas, it was not much worse.
"The last one to enter the main competition, no, let alone the main competition, even if he passes the first round of elimination, he is already a top chef in the dessert industry." Looking at the latest news, Li Xiaoran couldn't help but smack his tongue.
"Looks like those friends of yours are being knocked out." Hearing Li Xiaoran's emotion, Kohei Joichiro on the side couldn't help but smile and said.
Hearing Kohei Joichiro's words, Li Xiaoran couldn't help but nod lightly.
"It's normal, this kind of world event is not so simple to be able to advance, don't look at it is just the selection and knockout round, and then the main competition, but those who can enter it are all dessert masters standing at the top of the pyramid." Kohei Joichiro couldn't help but smile and said.
"If Kohei's seniors participate, how many places will they be able to achieve?" Looking at Kohei Joichiro with some curiosity, Li Xiaoran asked.
