129, how to get into the finals (first update)
On Saturday, the younger sister was going to participate in the finals of the King Chef Competition, and Gu Yang attached great importance to it this time, and went to the jungle in the Andes on Friday afternoon to slaughter a lazy pig to ensure the freshest meat quality, and brought home a leg of the best meat and put it in the freezer to prepare. At the same time, Gu Yang also used the system to select a crystal fish weighing about one and a half catties with the most value from the pond and put it in a bucket.
Early the next morning, Ning Qingshuang drove Ning Qingrou to Guyang's house first, Lu Rong had a very good impression of Ning Qingrou, who was gentle and polite, but she was not too affectionate, so as not to make the brother-in-law Miss Wang unhappy.
As a contestant, Ning Qingshuang needed to rush to the venue two hours in advance to report and prepare, Gu Yang cut the best part of the lazy pork, sent a plastic bucket for fish, and also picked the freshest green onions, ginger, garlic, peppers and other ingredients.
Put them one by one in the trunk of Ning Qingshuang's car.
Before leaving, Gu Yang earnestly explained to his sister: "Don't have any pressure during the game, just cook at home like usual." The main purpose of learning to cook is not to win championships, but to enjoy ourselves and those close to us. Regardless of the outcome of the game, keep a flat heart. In my brother's mind, you are the best! β
Ning Qingshuang was not small, and nodded vigorously, "I must remember my brother's words." β
Ning Qingrou then said to the younger sister: "You can fight crookedly to reach the finals, it's already very lucky, don't think about winning any championships, after all, you have only studied for a few months, and compared with other chefs who have a solid foundation for more than ten or twenty years, the difference is too far." It's all about participation, and it's enough for you to play at your usual level. It doesn't matter how it turns out. In my sister's mind, you are the best! β
Ning Qingshuang snorted. "Sister, I know." She naturally knew. The older siblings are trying not to put too much pressure on her to compete.
Wang Shiya on the side couldn't help gritting her teeth, what the two said was really symmetrical, she didn't forget to show it, waved her fist, and said enthusiastically: "Qingshuang, come on!" I believe you are the best. β
"Thank you, sister-in-law, I will definitely work hard."
Miss Ning Er, who was warmly encouraged by her brother and sister-in-law, had an unprecedented increase in fighting spirit. The burden is much smaller.
Ning Qingshuang drove to the competition site first, while Gu Yang and the others had to wait for more than an hour before going, it was useless to go early, and they couldn't stay with Ning Qingshuang.
A few people went upstairs, Wang Shiya and Ning Qingrou chatted about the preparations for the serious illness relief fund, which was very warm, Gu Yang listened on the side, and occasionally interjected, it was not a light bulb after all. Apparent kindness to them. Gu Yang is still quite relieved and likes this atmosphere.
A little later, Zhou Xiaoyu also came with a female bodyguard, and asked the female bodyguard to catch up with her old comrades downstairs. Go upstairs by yourself.
The first time I saw the gentle Ning Qingrou, Zhou Xiaoyu was quite polite and had a good impression. However, in my heart, I was worried about Wang Shiya, who led the wolf into the room, and a good wife like Ning Qingrou was really a man's poison. Even more so for that guy. Zhou Xiaoyu paid special attention to observing Ning Qingrou and that guy's every move, although the two of them looked very polite. Zhou Xiaoyu always felt a little abnormal.
For Zhou Xiaoyu's impolite behavior, Gu Yang glared at him from time to time, but it was still useless, while Ning Qingrou pretended not to know, and paid more attention to keeping a distance from Gu Yang.
When it was almost time, Gu Yang drove a BMW, pulled three women sitting in the back row, and went out to the Jiangxia Hotel, the venue of the competition. The women were chatting about some fashion things, but they were very enthusiastic, anyway, Gu Yang was really big.
After more than 20 minutes, Gu Yang drove to the parking lot of Jiangxia Hotel, and after taking out the VIP ticket to show the security guard, he successfully parked in the few remaining tense parking spaces.
When getting out of the car, the three women all wore sunglasses, Gu Yang was not to be outdone, and also wore a pair of sunglasses, now everyone is a special person, and they don't see the light in public, especially the three women are too attention-grabbing, as their only male companions, it is easy to receive special attention.
The game was held on the sixth floor, and the four people took the elevator up to the sixth floor, took out their VIP tickets, and entered the super hall larger than the basketball court through the closely checked door.
In order to get very tight VIP tickets, Gu Yang did not hesitate to let He Lanxiang personally go to the relationship, and personally took it from Li Hanyan, the boss of Tianzheng Group, the largest sponsor of the event. Naturally, Li Hanyan would not let go of such a good opportunity to take a relationship, and gave four good positions. Anyway, Gu Yang will not feel that he has taken advantage of him, let alone feel that he owes favors, Tianzheng Group has relied on his dream group during this time, but he has lived a very nourishing life.
Jiangxia Hotel belongs to Tianzheng Group, is one of the most famous hotels in Jiangxia, it is still quite luxurious, and the hall is elegantly arranged.
At this time, a stepped audience platform was temporarily set up in the huge venue, which can accommodate nearly 400 people to watch, and in the competition area in front, ten sets of mobile kitchen equipment were placed in an orderly manner, and the final will be held among the ten finalists.
The four of them sat in the VIP position at the front, and in addition to being able to directly observe the competition area, they could also watch a more detailed live TV broadcast through several huge LCD screens.
Several specific media outlets, such as CCTV, were present, and the equipment was already ready.
At this time, the vast majority of the representative audience had already entered, but the five judges had not yet seen their shadows, and the contestants were preparing backstage.
As a high-value national chef competition, it has been highly valued by the chef industry and actively participated, but only a few lucky people can pass all the way to the finals. Gu Yang is also embarrassed, that sister can break in as a dark horse, it's really too exaggerated, even if he is himself, it is more difficult to break in purely by real skills, after all, there are too many masters here. But with the amazing Earth system, it's a different story.
After feeling the high level and difficulty of the competition through the TV introduction, Zhou Xiaoyu was particularly surprised, and rubbed Gu Yang on the left with his elbow, "How did your sister get into the finals?" β
Gu Yang Zhenzhen said: "Of course, it is based on real skills!" Why, you still don't believe it? You'll know when you've eaten her cooking. Qingshuang is very talented in cooking! "Cheating is cheating. Gu Yang found that his sister's comprehension was still very strong. Progress has been rapid, especially in cutting and unwinding. It's not worse than the average chef, but I really don't know what its true ability is in the stir-fry itself, but Gu Yang believes that with time, that sister's potential is still quite large.
Zhou Xiaoyu still didn't believe it, "You must have cheated!" β
Hearing this, Wang Shiya, who was sitting on the other side of Guyang, suddenly understood, she hadn't thought about it seriously before, but now she wanted to come. It must be that guy who used temperature control to help cheat, and he was too doting on that sister, no wonder eating that sister's food was particularly delicious.
Wang Shiya stretched out her hand and quietly twisted the guy, snorted lightly, but she didn't say it, but Ning Qingrou was sitting on the other side of her.
Gu Yang was not polite, and quietly slapped Wang Shiya's ass as a retaliation, and she was a little cool, so that she couldn't get out even if she was angry.
Gu Yang pouted disdainfully at Zhou Xiaoyu at the same time and said, "You really want to!" We are not immortals. Thought we could do tricks. β
Wang Shiya is really speechless about that guy's ability to open his eyes and say nonsense, but that guy is really like a fairy, and it's too pediatric to make a trick. Time. Wang Shiya didn't have much suspense about the result of the game, but she knew that the ingredients Ning Qingshuang chose this time had taken a lot of advantage, plus the invincible plug-in. As long as the judges are fair and impartial, the champion will definitely be Ning Qingshuang's. Even. Wang Shiya can still think of if that guy does something casually to other players...... She could only mourn for the contestants. I have such a husband, it's really helpless, it's simply invincible in the world!
Finally, the show opened, the side door opened, and the famous CCTV host Dong Dawei took the lead in walking out and enthusiastically announced: "Good morning, everyone on the scene and in front of the TV...... The finals of the 12th National King Chef Competition are now open, and five judges are invited to enter the competition first. β
As soon as the words fell, the five mysterious judges walked out of the side door one after another, three men and two women, when they saw the last female judge, the audience was suddenly boiling, it was Nie Qianqian, a popular superstar in the entertainment industry with countless die-hard fans, she waved her hand enthusiastically, and the audience was even more excited.
Zhou Xiaoyu cut off disapprovingly, and said in a low voice: "What a thing." This is the King of Chef competition, not a concert, putting the cart before the horse! But she suppressed her voice playfully, and it was not a good thing to offend other fans.
Gu Yang also thought so, and scolded angrily: "Damn, play the piano randomly!" β
Wang Shiya immediately frowned and reminded: "Pay attention to the occasion!" β
Gu Yang shook his head and sighed, this kind of behavior of using stars to increase ratings and influence is too commonplace.
Dong Dawei enthusiastically introduced the five judges, namely Huang Dahai, president of the domestic kitchen association, and He Weixing, vice president, Zeng Xiaoshan, a famous gourmand (super foodie), Li Hanyan, president of Tianzheng Group, and Nie Qianqian, a popular superstar.
Gu Yang's attention first focused on Huang Dahai, the head of the Kitchen Association, who was a master with gray hair and a serious complexion, who should be the most authoritative culinary person. Naturally, Gu Yang did not look at whether he was handsome or not, but searched for his fairness and justice, and the result made Gu Yang feel at ease, he was a principled person.
Vice President He Weixing and gourmand Zeng Xiaoshan are also okay.
As for Li Hanyan, although Gu Yang was a little disgusted, he was also impressed by her arrogance, and believed that he would not release water casually.
Nie Qianqian is purely a vase, whether it tastes good or not is all based on intuition, and it is easy to dismiss.
After carefully inspecting the judges, Gu Yang is not small, as long as the competition is fair and just, he does not need to deliberately suppress other contestants.
"Now there are ten contestants invited to enter, please warmly welcome ......," Dong Dawei said very skillfully.
With a round of applause, ten contestants in white chef suits and white hats walked in through the open back door and stood in front of the mobile kitchen with their corresponding numbers.
Gu Yang could see it very clearly, among the ten contestants, only the sister's hat was the shortest, and the other people's hats were all old, with a significant difference in level, plus the sister was the youngest, still a woman, and suddenly stood outstanding, although she stood in the inconspicuous corner on the far right.
"No. 1 player Qin Chuan, 42 years old, the most outstanding representative of Cantonese cuisine, once ......" host Dong Dawei fluently introduced the dazzling honors of the contestants, and they were all well-known and not small.
When introducing the No. 9 contestant Bi Desheng, the applause at the scene was obviously much warmer, this 38-year-old super chef, but the overwhelming champion of the previous two King Chef competitions, this time the championship achieved three consecutive championships, all of which were expected by insiders, no accidents.
Gu Yang saw the extremely confident look on this player's face, and couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth, revealing a playful smile. It's too proud, and it will be planted even harder! Gu Dagongzi was determined to let him feel the truth that there is a sky outside the sky, there are no setbacks in life, it is too incomplete.
Huang Dahai, the president of the Kitchen Association, who had been with a straight face, finally showed a smile of relief, Bi Desheng was his most proud protΓ©gΓ©, and he really won a lot of light for him, the only drawback was that he was too arrogant. Although Huang Dahai often reminds and teaches, his temperament is innate and difficult to change, and over time, President Huang will not say much, after all, this disciple does have proud abilities.
Gu Yang frowned slightly when he found out about this nepotism, and had a little doubt about the fairness and impartiality of the president and vice president in the future, so he searched again to confirm whether they would deliberately release water to No. 9 Bi Desheng, the answer is still assured, Gu Yang thinks about it, and does not plan to make small moves against others, after all, it is not easy for everyone to participate, and they should be allowed to have a real opportunity to show. Anyway, Gu Yang is full of confidence in that sister, if there are judges who dare to deliberately give a low score against his conscience at that time, he will definitely take revenge.
If you want to win the championship, you have to be justified!
The last one is the No. 10 player, Ning Qingshuang. As you can see, this is a very young female contestant who has not studied cooking skills, and it is surprising that she can enter today's final as a dark horse, and I believe she is a very powerful player. Dong Dawei did not hesitate to praise when he introduced, but in his heart, he was very disapproving, and he really didn't know if this was shady.
No. 9 Bi Desheng couldn't help but turn his head to look again, when he was backstage before, he had already seen all the opponents of the competition, except for this beautiful little sister, he was familiar with the rest of the chefs, there was no pressure, the only thing that was unpredictable was this little sister who was not obvious. But to pass many hurdles to break into the finals, it is impossible without a little real ability.
However, no matter what, it can't shake Bi Desheng's firm determination to win the championship.
Gu Yang waved his fist at Ning Qingshuang to cheer, Ning Qingshuang took a deep breath, and was even more full of fighting spirit and full of confidence.
With the announcement of the host, the assistants of the contestants joined the competition team with the prepared ingredients, only Ning Qingshuang was sent by the organizer to deliver the ingredients, and she had no assistant. In fact, there are only two simple dishes that don't need an assistant, unlike other contestants, who have to make complex dishes. The rules of the competition are no more than two dishes, and the rest of the professional players generally choose the best dish, which is a waste of energy and easy to pull down the score, after all, it is much more difficult to do both dishes well than to make one dish.
"The competition has officially begun......" Dong Dawei finally announced that he was on topic. (To be continued......)
