Chapter 7: Michelin-starred chefs
About forty minutes later, the car took the two of them through almost half of Jianghuai City, stopping on a secluded road with only two lanes in Jianghuai City's Dongcheng District.
"Alright, let's go inside."
Ji Yan got out of the car first, and Xu Zhuo only found out at this time that it was just that he hadn't seen her at noon, and Ji Yan had already changed her clothes.
In the morning, she was just wearing an ordinary work suit, but now she has changed into a lilac dress, and she has changed into a pair of fiery red high heels under her feet, and even her hair is obviously carefully managed, and each hair has no sense of chaos.
In comparison, her face has not changed much, although there is obviously some makeup, but it is all light makeup, only slightly modified.
But with her natural beauty and healthy and bright appearance, such light makeup is the most suitable and eye-catching.
"Is it pretty?" Sensing that Xu Zhuo was looking at herself, Ji Yan asked with a smile.
"Hmm......" Xu Zhuo nodded vigorously without concealment. It's beautiful. If you are usually so well-dressed, I dare to guarantee that there will be many more Wang Sicheng who are not afraid of death in the stage. ”
Ji Yan couldn't help but smile, turned around and walked towards the door of a restaurant on the side of the road.
Xu Zhuo followed with the camera equipment, and wondered in his heart.
Ji Yan usually dresses herself very little, but today she is so carefully groomed and deliberately put on makeup, so the person she wants to see this time is probably not trivial, and it is worthy of her to be treated so solemnly.
But what kind of big man can be in this inconspicuous restaurant?
Soon, Xu Zhuo saw this "big man" who made him wonder.
"Hey, Xiaoyan, it's just that I haven't seen you for half a year, and you've become more beautiful and moving." A tall young man who looked to be in his early thirties hugged Ji Yan gently, his mouth full of appreciation. "The next time I see Uncle Ji, I will definitely make a solemn request to him, hoping that he will agree to marry you to me, what do you think?"
Ji Yan pursed her lips and smiled: "If you're not worried that Grea and her father will chop you into pieces of meat with a knife, then please." ”
The young man sighed and shook his head: "Alas, if I hadn't met Graya, I would have pursued you with all my might." ”
Speaking of this, his gaze fell on Xu Zhuo behind him.
"This is ......"
"This is my colleague, who is here to be in charge of the camera work for this interview." Ji Yan introduced.
Xu Zhuo nodded to the young man, without thinking of leaning over.
Obviously, Ji Yan and this young man should be old acquaintances, judging from the young man's tone, it is difficult for the two parties to still have a world relationship.
"Welcome, welcome." The young man greeted him very enthusiastically and took the initiative to extend his hand to Xu Zhuo. "My name is Regor and I'm the chef of this restaurant."
"Chef?" Xu Zhuo looked at him in confusion.
This young man is tall and handsome, with a tall figure, no matter his temperament and image, he is a rich and handsome model character, and he is actually the chef of this restaurant?
"Yes, I opened this restaurant, but I also served as the head chef." It didn't seem to be the first time that Rego had faced such a question as Xu Zhuo, and explained with a smile.
"Oh...... My name is Xu Zhuo, and I am a colleague of Ji Yan. You talk, I'll get everything out first. ”
Xu Zhuo stretched out his hand, originally just planning to shake hands with him very casually, and then began to prepare, but he didn't expect that when the two of them touched their hands, they felt a strange touch coming from the palm of their hands, as if they were electrocuted, which made Xu Zhuo even the whole spirit lift, but there was no discomfort, but he felt very comfortable.
Rego was also shocked, and seemed to have the same strange feelings as Xu Zhuo.
The two looked at each other in surprise, both looking a little puzzled.
Ji Yan, who was on the side, noticed the strange atmosphere between the two, glanced at the strange expressions on their faces, and suddenly smiled.
"Hey, Rego, I just saw a news story a few days ago that the proportion of homosexuals in France has risen sharply in the past two years, could you have been infected?"
Hearing this, Xu Zhuo and Rego immediately quickly let go of their hands as if they were really electrocuted, and each took a step back.
"Hey, Ji Yan, what are you talking nonsense? I'm a normal man! ”
"Xiaoyan, don't talk nonsense, Grea will prove my innocence."
"Really?" Ji Yan glanced at the two of them with a smile, turned around elegantly, went straight to find a seat and sat down, and then pointed to the seat opposite. "Alright, Rego, sit down, let's start the interview. Time is running out, we have to hurry. ”
Until now, Xu Zhuo still doesn't quite understand what this interview is all about.
But it's none of his business, seeing that Ji Yan started the formal interview, he prepared the equipment with ease and began to focus on the camera work.
The whole interview process went smoothly, Ji Yan obviously had a tacit understanding of negotiation with Rego, plus Ji Yan's interview skills were extremely outstanding, the whole process was easy, and all the questions were led out in order under her guidance, without the slightest delay and stiffness.
Through the Q&A between the two, Xu Zhuocai gradually understood something.
It turns out that this Rego not only looks rich and handsome, but is actually rich and handsome in the real sense.
Although he is only 36 years old this year, he was awarded a Michelin-starred chef in France six years ago, and four years ago he was already the head chef of a very famous two-Michelin-starred restaurant in France.
He studied under one of France's three-Michelin-starred chefs, Noah? Refayse, which is said to have won the essence of French cuisine, has been recognized by many people in France, and is even praised as the perfect successor to Noah in the future? Refase's best choice.
However, this talented French chef resolutely chose to give up his bright prospects in France last year and returned to China.
"My wish is not to become a top master of French cuisine, but to carry forward our own Chinese cuisine, so that the whole world knows that Chinese cuisine is delicious."
Seeing Rego waving his hands and saying such a sentence with an excited expression, Xu Zhuo couldn't help but nod secretly.
He thinks he is a layman, and he is not interested in what many people praise French food, Italian food, etc., and has always felt that there are so many Chinese cuisines, and the patterns are even more ever-changing, how can it not be compared to foreign meals.
However, for various reasons, Chinese cuisine has a somewhat inferior reputation in the world, and it is impossible for people to truly realize the deliciousness of Chinese cuisine, which makes him a little dissatisfied.
Now that Rego, a real top chef, has expressed such a wish, Xu Zhuo naturally agrees.
But compared to agreeing with Rego's words, Xu Zhuo cared more about another point.
When Rego said that paragraph impassionedly, Xu Zhuo could clearly see that a pale golden light emanated from Rego's body, enveloping his whole person, and making his whole person look golden for a while.
But with such an obvious abnormality, Ji Yan, who was sitting directly opposite Rego at the moment, didn't seem to see it at all, still kept smiling, and nodded lightly to echo Rego's words.
And Rego didn't seem to notice anything unusual in him at all, and his expression didn't change at all.
"Is it the same as yesterday, only I can see?" Xu Zhuo frowned, remembering the strange scene he saw at the Da Bodhi Temple meeting yesterday.
The golden light on Rego's body didn't last long, and when he finished saying that, his emotions stabilized from the excitement, and the golden light gradually faded, and finally dissipated, no different from ordinary people.
Xu Yi knew that even if he said it, Ji Yan and Rego would definitely not believe it, so he could only hide this anomaly deep in his heart, but the old but ruddy face of the master Zhenru appeared in his mind.
"Do you want to ask him? He must know a lot about these anomalies......"
Xu Zhuo was a little hesitant in his heart.
If he goes to see Master Zhenru again, he will let himself be his disciple again, which Xu Clumsy will not accept anyway.
While Xu Zhuo was thinking about things here, the interview between Ji Yan and Rego was still going smoothly.
After about twenty minutes, the interview finally ended.
According to Ji Yan's arrangement, Xu Zhuo took some photos and introduced the interior of this restaurant.
Judging from this approach, Xu Zhuo estimated that Rego actually wanted to promote his restaurant through Ji Yan's relationship, which could be regarded as an advertisement.
Ji Yan's program hosted by JAC TV is a bit of life, which is oriented to the lives of ordinary people, and it is understandable to insert the content of this restaurant into the program.
Anyway, now electricity is not a soft advertisement in the program, hard advertisements are everywhere, and this is nothing.
Besides, the chef of this restaurant, Rego, is a real Michelin-starred chef, and there are not many in the whole of China, and Jianghuai City is even rarer, and it is definitely worthy of such a strong recommendation.
Ji Yan originally planned to do a Jianghuai food-related program, and it was natural for this interview to be inserted.
It's probably because this restaurant hasn't opened for a long time, and it's relatively remote, so there aren't many customers, or maybe it's deliberately arranged by Rego today, in short, it's close to 6 o'clock after the interview, but there is still no second customer in the restaurant.
After the interview, Rego left the two of them, planning to cook and entertain them himself, but Ji Yan naturally stayed honestly and unceremoniously.
Xu Zhuo also needs no need to be polite, ready to taste the excellent craftsmanship of the so-called Michelin-starred chef.
But when he saw the materials prepared by Rego, he was a little surprised.
Rego kept saying that he wanted to promote Chinese cuisine, but the ingredients he prepared were clearly French dishes.
"There's no way, after all, I'm a French chef now, and if I want to open up the situation, I still have to rely on French cuisine." When answering Xu Zhuo's question, Rego seemed a little deflated, obviously unwilling.
However, as soon as he got the kitchen knife in his hand, this trace of deflation disappeared without a trace.
Rego, who always has a gentle smile and a handsome and tall warm male image, immediately becomes extremely focused when he prepares the dishes at first, as if he is a different person.
When he stomped down with his first knife, Xu Zhuo, who was invited to visit and film his cooking process, immediately noticed that the golden light that had disappeared just now was transmitted from his body again.
And as he went deeper and deeper into making dishes, the golden light projected from his body became more and more abundant, gradually enveloping his whole being.
The golden light not only became more intense, but also gradually coalesced, and gradually, a clear golden figure was condensed.
Xu Zhuo looked at this figure in amazement, and didn't know how to react for a while.
At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded in Xu Zhuo's mind out of nowhere.
"Godhead confirmed, ready to be recycled."
