Chapter 345: Twenty-Four Star System and Rewards
"The results of the first Ten Outstanding Ranking Tournament of Yuanyue Academy have come out!
The first place was won by the second-year student, Liu Pleias! With an absolute high score of 99 points, he won the first place in the new top ten and stood at the top of Yuanyue Academy...... He was even called a man who surpassed himself when he just graduated by Mr. Dojima, the 'living legend'!
The second seat was Erina Nagikiri, who scored 92 points, and was also a second-year student, but Mr. Dojima also gave the evaluation of 'not inferior to himself when he graduated'!
the third seat, three-year-old, one-color wisdom; The fourth seat is a second year old, Mito Yumei; The fifth seat, the second year of life, Kohei Chuangzhen; the sixth seat, a year old, Oda Shinna; The seventh seat, the second year old, Kurokiba Ryo; The eighth seat, two-year-old, Tian Sohui; the ninth, the second year old, Nagi Alice; The tenth seat, the second-year-old, the new scarlet sand!
Let me dedicate the warmest applause to the new ten masters who stand at the peak of the distant moon......"
The new ten masters are completely based on two-year students!
There is only one person for three years and one year for each year. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
It is not surprising that there are few people born in one year, and in most cases, ten masters are not born in one year, and three years are ...... Part of the reason is that there were originally two three-year students and ten masters, but they were dismissed, and part of the reason is that the new two-year students are indeed very outstanding!
In terms of the strength of the top students in each grade, it has surpassed the third-year students.
Rei Kawashima was announcing the final seat on the field, and at this moment, it seemed that she had received some new instructions from the headset, and suddenly the conversation changed......
At the same time, it is worth noting that the new ten masters, whether it is Liu Pleiades and Erina Nagi in the forefront, or Alice Nagi and Scarlet Sand in the ninth and tenth seats, all the ten masters have received higher evaluations than the previous seats in the comments or scores of the judges!
The golden age of Far Moon Academy is coming again! The time is approaching for the new edition of the World Culinary Championship'The· Blue', the Far Moon Group has decided that the academy will send a team to play again this year!
All the selected places for the team will be selected from among the students...... Non-Ten Outstanding Students also have the opportunity to be nominated, please work hard in the next three months! ”
Sure enough, the announcement of this news caused a lot of repercussions among the audience, whether it was guests or students.
The difference is that most of the guests are wondering what Senzaemon's decision means, while most of the students are excited—looking forward to being able to participate in the competition.
Although I know that as a member of the team, there must only be a few of the best students, but since it is not limited to "selected from the top ten", it means that others will have some hope!
It is reasonable for the guests to feel strange and even start to discuss......
“The· As a global cooking competition, "Blue" has a history of more than 100 years, and the first cooking competition existed in ancient Greece more than 2,000 years ago, and then it was discontinued for more than 1,500 years with the decline of the ancient Greek cuisine civilization......
It was not until the pre-middle period of the "Great Fusion of World Cuisines" that with the increasingly frequent exchanges of the world's major cuisines, the Michelin Gastronomy Federation re-organized the first worldwide "The· Blue”。
The new "The· "Blue" has become a global culinary competition, held every four years, and with the promotion of "World Cuisine Fusion", now "The· "Blue" is already one of the biggest events in the culinary world and the world!
From the beginning, it was organized by the Michelin Gastronomy Federation, and it has become a joint organization of the three major culinary certification organizations......
However, the students in the audience, while gearing up, there are inevitably people who are happy to splash cold water on the side.
"Yuhime, you don't need to be so interested, do you?" Marui couldn't help but say to Yuhime, who was already "burning" on the side.
"Huh? Four Eyes! Are you going to provoke? I advise you to think again, tonight's celebration is still taking place in your room! Yuhime threatened with some weakness.
"But 'The· Blue's words......"
"It's said that it's not selected among the top ten, can't I look forward to it! And...... Even if it wasn't for the far moon, I remember 'The· Blue' still accepts applications from non-governmental organizations, right? Otherwise, how about we in Polestar Liao, without Ah Xing and Chuangzhen, to participate in the team by ourselves? Yuhime interrupted unhappily.
"Wait, although there is no limit to the nature of the participating groups, whether it is a country, a group or a restaurant, but don't forget...... Now'The· Blue's implementation is the 'five-person 24-star registration system' that was updated more than 20 years ago! That is to say, if you want to register, you must first ensure that there are five regular contestants, and the total must have '24 stars'. ”
"Twenty-four star registration system? What does it mean...... Ahem, I actually pay attention to every session, and I still remember the list of the top eight in the last session! It's just ......," Yuhime said with some embarrassment.
It's just that it was just "watching the fun" before! I don't really know the registration rules......
Just like the Olympic Games in the world before Liu Pleiades traveled, everyone may pay attention to the medal table every time, but when it comes to the registration process for the Olympic Games...... Who cares about these?
Zenji Marui put aside his glasses and explained, "The so-called 'add up to 24 stars', that is, the qualification of 'star chef' that each contestant has, and the number of stars must be added up to 24 or greater!" ”
Dawu on the side obviously didn't understand either, and asked in confusion: "Five people have reached twenty-four stars? Isn't that nearly five stars per person on average? Isn't the highest rating only three stars? ”
"The highest rating is three stars, yes, but the evaluation of chefs above two stars has been subdivided into various dishes, for example, Ah Xing's previous two-star certification is 'two-star Chinese pastry chef', if a chef has a three-star certification and a two-star certification at the same time, even if he has five stars!" Zenji Marui said.
The others understood at this point, although "The· "Blue" theoretically does not limit the subject of participation, as long as the requirements are met after "forming a team", even if it is a consortium of several small restaurants, you can also sign up for the competition, but the registration standard is not ordinarily high!
"Each team has five selected players, and the average needs to be close to five stars...... There are also two candidates, a total of seven people to form a team, although the candidates are usually not required, but this is just the registration rules! If the strength is insufficient, it will only make people laugh if they go. ”
"That's right, so although the Yuanyue Group will also sign up for the competition in the name of the group before, in the past, the group usually summoned outstanding graduates to form a team to participate in the competition!"
The easiest way to achieve a five-person 24-star system is to get a two-star rating for two dishes and a one-star rating for one dish per person......
Since the development of cuisine, the division of dishes has been very detailed!
For example, there is a major series of Chinese cuisine, which is not only divided into eight cuisines, twelve other cuisines, but also official cuisine, imitation cuisine, imitation Tang cuisine, imitation Song cuisine, Confucian cuisine, Red Mansion cuisine, and Siguan cuisine...... There are hundreds of small cuisines.
Coupled with the branches of other major cuisines in the world, the dishes can be subdivided into hundreds!
And there is no fixed number for this number, and the specific review of which cuisine to apply for is decided by the chef himself, which means that he can even apply for a cuisine that no one else has heard of...... Of course, if the application is too biased, then whether or not to accept the application depends on the judgment of the three major culinary certification bodies.
Some of them are too obscure cuisines, and the acceptance may not be very high, such as Liu Pleiaus's "two-star Chinese pastry chef" qualification last time, which is already quite high in "gold content"!
The trend is to divide the cuisine more and more finely, which also means that some dishes that are very close to each other belong to different dishes in terms of rules......
It can be said that a two-star chef with older qualifications, let him be promoted to a three-star level, maybe his ability is insufficient, but usually as long as the experience is enough, choose a close cuisine, use a few years to consolidate, further study, and then apply for a two-star qualification, the success rate is not low!
Of course, only chefs who are no longer confident in their own star promotion will spend their time on "star-brushing......
After listening to Marui Zenji's explanation, Yuhime and others from Polestar Liao have basically put out their desire to compete.
No matter how confident they are, they understand how far they are from a star chef, and the entry criteria have already explained the intensity of the competition.
At the same time, I also understand why many of those guests will make an "incredible" look!
In previous years, the top five seats of the top ten masters, together, it would be good to have three "one-star chefs" when they graduated.
For example, the last year's Si Yingshi was certified as a "two-star chef" not long ago, which has shocked many people, and it is the first graduate in recent years, and it is also a very good result.
And what the commander-in-chief means this time is to form a team of all students?
You must know that among all the students in school now, only Liu Pleiades has a "two-star" certification, although judging from the evaluation given by Dojima Silver, Liu Pleiades and Erina have the strength to achieve "three stars", and both of them are very good at a wide range of things, and they must be able to obtain more than one three-star rating......
But starting from the three seats of Yishihui, I'm afraid there is still a distance from the "three-star", and it would be good to get a two-star, that is, the strength that Si Yingshi showed not long ago!
After the four seats of Yu Mei, the five seats of Chuangzhen, the six seats of Shinna, and the seven seats of Kurokiba, there is still a distance between two stars, and one star is probably the limit!
As a student of Yuanyue, while having his own characteristics in cooking, he has a wide range of "dishes", such as Yu Mei, although he seems to be "only" good at "meat cuisine", but in fact, he is involved in meat dishes of various mainstream cuisines in the world......
They just have their own style, but they have a very wide range of dishes.
Therefore, many people believe that as long as they have the strength of one star or two stars, they can soon get two or even more stars of the same level!
"But the commander is a little too risky this time, isn't he? Even if these students can meet the conditions for the competition, I am afraid that they are only barely reaching the standard of the '24-star system', and I am afraid that the results will not be very good if they are allowed to participate at this time......" Many directors and partners of the college are not very optimistic about this decision.
There are also some Yuanyue elders who mentioned it, and there was also a time twenty years ago when the Yuanyue Group used an all-school lineup......
"I vaguely remember it, but it wasn't a good time, was it?"
Indeed, because Joichiro, who was the ace, withdrew from the competition in the middle of the game, and Dojima Silver and Nakamura Thistle were only the average of ordinary contestants at that time, so the team was quickly eliminated......
"Now only Liu Pleiades has a two-star qualification, if when he signs up three months later, he can't even meet the standard of the 'five-person 24-star system', the commander-in-chief can only change his mind, if it really reaches the ...... The students who can meet the standard of 'five-person 24-star system' are already great publicity for the college and the group. ”
Obviously, many people have this mentality.
At the same time, there are also college veterans such as Oizumi Persimmon Nojin, who are worried about whether Liu Pleiades or Erina will repeat the mistakes of "Shura" back then, and will discuss it with the commander-in-chief after preparation......
At the end of Shijie's speech, Liu Pleiades and others also felt pressure when they listened to Erina's detailed talk about the "five-person 24-star system" after leaving the arena!
It seems that the next three months will be the time for them to "brush up on stars......
"Wait! Aside from the 'five-player 24-star system', is there no age limit for the competition? Liu Yuexing suddenly asked.
If this is the case, then the two dragon chefs Xie Yunlong and Lin Yi, and then the three Lin-level chefs like Liu Lousan, can they be swept away?
"There is no age requirement, but there is a 'guideline' that the three culinary certification bodies have decided to resolve, and that is to 'bring more new faces to the culinary world'...... All players of the teams who have entered the main competition are not allowed to participate again in any capacity. Erina said.
"Each time you enter the main competition, there are eight squads, and each team has a total of seven people who are selected and candidates, which means that fifty-six people are 'eliminated' every four years......" Chuangzhen said with his fingers crossed.
This kind of "ban" is based on the individual, not the organization, for example, the Yuanyue Group team may have entered the main competition many times, but the players will be different each time!
Liu Pleiades also breathed a sigh of relief, so as to avoid the possibility that those old monsters would come out to monopolize the top few.
"And one last question...... Advance to the main competition, or first place...... How much is the bonus? Liu Yuexing suddenly asked.
This time, not only Erina, but also the others next to him looked at him with a monster-like look.
Now we should consider how to meet the "five-person 24-star system", right?
Even after the competition, you should think about how to enter the main competition, right?
And...... "The· Blue" needs a reward?
"Entering the main competition is already the best reward in itself."
Erina paused as she spoke, because it was Liu Pleiades who asked, so she additionally explained: "The main competition is divided into two parts: the team competition and the individual competition, as long as you can enter the main competition, the names of all the team members will be spread all over the world...... And if you have an outstanding performance, you will become an upstart in the culinary industry in the next few years. ”
"That's it? Is there really no bonus? ”
“…… In previous years, there were some symbols, but not much. ”
Looking at Liu Pleias's interested, others felt that Liu Pleias's horizons were not broad enough at first, but they immediately thought of Liu Pleias's previous "Swift Healing Knife" and realized it a little...... These "false names" do not seem to be attractive to Liu Pleiasia!
Upstart in the culinary world? The process of today's competition, after the spread of the word, Liu Pleiades's name will already resound in the culinary world......
At this time, Liu Pleiades suddenly remembered something, quietly leaned into Erina's ear, and whispered.
I don't know if it's because it's too close, or if Liu Pleiades said something "indescribable", I can see Erina's face turn red all of a sudden, and then glared at him in shame!
The two muttered for a while, and finally ended with Erina's nod, as if she had promised Liu Pleiades something......
And the day after the "Ten Heroes Qualifying", the commander suddenly urgently convened a meeting of the Ten Heroes, and there was only one thing to say, that is, he had received accurate news. Blue" has been entrusted to the Inter-American Development Council!
"What? Did the three major cooking organizations agree? Is it true that the Inter-American Development Association is going to become the fourth largest culinary certification organization? Liu Pleiades wondered.
"That's right, from the very beginning, the 'Inter-American Development Association' and the 'Michelin Gastronomy Federation' have reached a consensus, and the Michelin Gastronomy Federation has advocated that the 'The· Blue', the right to host the event was handed over to the 'American Development Association', and then the next edition was re-held from the 'Michelin Gastronomy Federation', and the four companies were held in a rotational manner, but the Dragon Chef Union and the Brahmin Tasting Association did not agree to ...... at first."
"'Initially' disagreed?"
"Well, I just got the news that the 'Dragon Chef Alliance' has agreed, and I'm afraid that the 'Brahmin Tasting Association' will not continue to insist on it. It's just that the conditions have been changed to the next edition to be held by the 'Dragon Chef Alliance', and then the next edition will be held by the 'Brahmin Tasting Association', and then whether the three or four will rotate will be discussed separately. ”
"That is, to agree that the 'Inter-American Development Association' will replace the 'Michelin Gastronomy Federation' in this edition? What the people of the Dragon Chef Alliance think! Although it seems that there is not much difference, once this precedent is set, I am afraid that it will ...... "Liu Pleiades is most surprised why the Dragon Chef Alliance would agree.
Because many high-level leaders of the "Dragon Chef Alliance" had presided over his and Erina's "Kamimae Cuisine Showdown" before, he felt that those old foxes were not so easy to buy......
Could something have happened? If it wasn't for a meeting, Liu Yuexing wanted to find Liu Yueyuan immediately and make a phone call to Liu's house to ask what was going on!
However, there is no need for Liu Yuyuan to ask, because the relationship between the head of the Liu family and the Yuanyue family has eased somewhat, so Xianzaemon has already received the news from the Liu family.
"Related to the awards given to the champion team by the 'American Development Association'......"
When Senzaemon said this, everyone couldn't help but look at him in surprise and looked at Liu Pleiades......
I said in unison: I "beep"! Is there really a reward?
