Chapter 527: A Different Cooking Contest from the Past
"Girlfriend?" Han Yixue's body trembled, and the taste in her heart was really a little no. I don't know, I can't help but murmur to myself: "If I hadn't been terminally ill, would he still say that, would he still be like this?" ”
Han Yixue couldn't guess this answer herself, but with her understanding of Wang Xu, it was impossible.
"Hehe, it turned out to be my brother's confidante, fortunately, fortunately." Yan Xinwu smiled when he heard this, and winked at Wang Xu, with an expression that I understood very well.
Yan Xinwu and Xiao Semin both knew that Wang Xu had a girlfriend in Jiangzhou, but they didn't say much about Han Yixue led by Wang Xu, but Xiao Semin frowned slightly, as a woman, she was still not used to Wang Xu's three and four days.
"Xiaoxue, let me introduce you, this is Yan Xinwu, Brother Yan, the big guy of Hongmen on Hong Kong Island, with Brother Yan covering, we can go sideways on Hong Kong Island in the future." Wang Xu said with a smile.
"You kid." Yan Xinwu stretched out his hand and pointed at Wang Xu, crying and laughing.
"This is Xiao Semin from Jiangmen, Sister Xiao, Sister Xiao is a strong woman, women don't let her eyebrows, as for this, she is the owner of Conrad Hotel, Gao Fucheng is the general manager." Wang Xu smiled again and introduced Xiao Semin and Gao Fucheng.
"Brother Yan is good, Sister Xiao is good, and Mr. Gao is good." Han Yixue greeted the three of them generously, and sat down at the dinner table with Wang Xu, and Gao Fucheng ordered the food to be served.
"Sister Xiao came to Hong Kong Island this time, also for the cooking competition?" After sitting down, Wang Xu asked Xiao Semin with a smile.
"Yes, this cooking competition is more lively than the previous ones, why do I have to come to cheer for it." Xiao Semin smiled and nodded, even though he was a little dissatisfied with Wang Xu finding Han Yixue again, but he didn't dislike Wang Xu because of this, that man didn't eat fish these days, and Xiao Semin was not a little girl who had never seen the world......
"What, is there any difference between this year's cooking competition and the previous ones?" Wang Xu asked with a smile, but he heard another meaning from Xiao Semin's words.
"Nature makes a big difference." Yan Xinwu said with a smile: "The previous cooking competition was jointly organized by Xiaoxiang Restaurant of Tonghua Group and Sheng Family on Hong Kong Island, although it is famous, but its influence is only half of Asia, but this time it is different from Mr. Li's Li Group, Kyoto's Imperial Restaurant and Gaochuan Province's Sichuan Xiangyuan are also involved, and the influence is very great." ”
"Kyoto's Imperial Shokufu and Takagawa's Kawaka-en?" Wang Xu was stunned when he heard this, and his face also showed a touch of surprise, this Kyoto Imperial Restaurant and Takagawa Chuan Xiangyuan are the premier food mecca in China.
In the Chinese food industry, not to mention the scale and assets, the most famous are the Imperial Restaurant in Kyoto and the Chuan Xiangen in Takagawa.
The founder of the Imperial Restaurant is the imperial chef of the Qing Dynasty, the first generation of the owner of the Imperial Restaurant is the famous chef Zhang Jingpeng in Kyoto at that time, Zhang Jingpeng is famous in Kyoto when the new China has not yet been established, at that time the country has no rare animal protection law, Zhang Jingyue is famous for his ancestral Manchu and Han Dynasty craftsmanship, all the dishes of the Manchu and Han Dynasty, as long as you can order it, there is nothing he can't do.
As for the Chuanxiangyuan in Gaochuan, the fame is no worse than that of the Imperial Restaurant, with a history of 100 years, and it is said that when New China was not yet established, Chiang Kai-shek, the leader of the Republic of China, often visited Chuanxiangyuan.
The chef of Chuan Xiangyuan at that time was also a very famous master named Gao Taihu, who made a master of Sichuan cuisine, and the taste was beautiful, and Zhang Jingpeng, the imperial restaurant in Kyoto, was known as the north and south of the culinary world.
During the Republic of China, Chiang Kai-shek loved Sichuan very much, and someone once commented on Chiang Kai-shek's life and gave an eight-word evaluation: victory will not leave Sichuan, defeat will not leave the bay. Many people have maliciously speculated that the biggest reason why Chiang Kai-shek loved Sichuan was because of Sichuan Xiangyuan. (This paragraph is purely apocryphal, it must not be trusted, special reminder, do not be more serious)
It can be seen that the fame of Chuan Xiang Yuan, after the liberation of Chuan Xiang Yuan, although it received a certain amount of suppression, but under the protection of local people who love food, Chuan Xiang Yuan did not receive much loss, after the reform and opening up, it soared again, it is said that the last Hong Kong Island Cooking Competition, if it were not for the exclusion of Hong Kong Island people, the current master of Chuan Xiang Yuan, Wang Shengquan, is very likely to enter the top three of the Hong Kong Island Cooking Competition.
Compared with financial resources, the Imperial Restaurant and Chuan Xiangyuan are definitely not bad, and the Xiaoxiang Restaurant on Hong Kong Island is not far behind, plus Li Jinhong, the richest man on Hong Kong Island, no wonder this cooking competition has such a large scale.
"Doesn't that mean that this cooking competition is not limited to regions, not just Hong Kong Island celebrity chefs?" Wang Xu asked.
"Exactly." Yan Xinwu nodded and said: "However, it is not completely limited to regions, the famous chefs participating in the competition must be Chinese, and the assessment items of the cooking competition are all Chinese dishes." ”
This is understandable to Wang Xu, as mentioned above, compared to food, China is definitely second to none, that is, Chinese famous chefs trained by Chinese cuisine can hold such a grand world-class cooking competition, and other festivals absolutely do not have this ability.
"It seems that Liang Qianru has a lot of competitors this time." Wang Xu muttered in his heart, there are only two days left before the start of the cooking competition, and it seems that Liang Qianru will be contacted tomorrow.
"Dr. Wang, I heard that Hong Kong Island Chef Po Fai and you knew each other back then?" When the meal came up, Wang Xu and the others chatted while eating, and after chatting for a while, Gao Fucheng suddenly asked Wang Xu with a smile.
"It's awareness." Wang Xu smiled and nodded, his knowledge of Liang Baohui was a secret in the eyes of others, but he definitely couldn't hide it from someone who had a heart, Nie Wentong of Tonghua Group had seen Liang Qianru in Zhongjiang.
"Huh." Seeing that Wang Xu didn't hide it, Gao Fucheng was a little embarrassed, rubbed his hands and said: "I heard that Liang Qianru, the daughter of Liang Baohui, has signed up for this Hong Kong Island Cooking Competition, I don't know if Dr. Wang can introduce it on his behalf." ”
"You are a tall man, but you have a good calculation, are you planning to let Liang Qianru compete under the name of your Conrad Hotel?" Yan Xinwu scolded with a smile.
As soon as Yan Xinwu said, Wang Xucai's eyes suddenly lit up, just now he was wondering why Gao Fucheng wanted him to introduce Liang Qianru, it turned out to be this reason.
This year's Hong Kong Island Culinary Contest is unprecedented, and there are definitely a lot of celebrity chefs participating in the competition, most of whom are under the name of famous hotel restaurants.
"Isn't there a celebrity chef at Mr. Gao's Conrad Hotel?" Wang Xu asked puzzledly, if he didn't understand the benefits, Wang Xu didn't hesitate, after learning the benefits, he was a little reluctant, Liang Qianru can now be regarded as the chef of Xiangxiang Pavilion, if he represents Xiangxiang Pavilion, wouldn't Xiangxiang Pavilion soar into the sky.
Gao Fucheng didn't expect Wang Xu to have other plans in his heart, and said with a wry smile: "Don't hide it from you, Doctor Wang, I naturally have a lot of celebrity chefs in Conrad Hotel, but there are not many top-notch, and the reason why Conrad Hotel is famous is mainly for service and decoration." ”
"Oh!" Wang Xu nodded, he understands this, not to mention the Conrad Hotel, this floor alone is a famous building on Hong Kong Island, if it is placed in Jiangzhou, it is definitely the tallest building in the province.
"Doctor Wang, what do you think, you just need to help with the introduction, whether it is successful or not, I will remember your favor." Gao Fucheng looked at Wang Xu with anticipation on his face.
"Okay, I only promise the introduction, it doesn't matter if I succeed or not." Wang Xu pondered for a moment and nodded.
Now Wang Xu is also under the eaves, he has to bow his head, he lives in Gao Fucheng's Conrad Hotel, naturally he can't refuse, he estimated, it is estimated that at the beginning, Gao Fucheng gave a group of them a room in the Conrad Hotel, and specially left him a presidential suite, just for the sake of his relationship with Liang Baohui's father and daughter.
"This tall and fat man is really unprofitable." Wang Xu smiled bitterly in his heart, but he was not worried, with the relationship between Liang Qianru's father and daughter and him, the tall and fat man may not be able to dig moving.
got Wang Xu's promise, the smile on Gao Fucheng's face was even better, and he took the initiative to pour wine and food for Wang Xu.
Compared with Yan Xinwu and Li Jinhong and others, this Gao Fucheng is more like a businessman, Yan Xinwu is definitely not a business material at first glance, and his personality is more like an ancient martial artist, arrogant and righteous.
After eating with Yan Xinwu and a few people until half past eight in the evening, Wang Xu was helped back to the room by Han Yixue, but there was no way, Wang Xu drank high again.
Yan Xinwu was originally an alcoholic, and he drank a good amount of alcohol, and Gao Fucheng mixed it up, so Wang Xu couldn't drink too much if he wanted to.
"Oops, tap." Han Yixue helped Wang Xu into the bedroom, threw Wang Xu hard, and accidentally touched Wang Xu's head on the bedside table next to him, causing Wang Xu to groan.
"Let you be reckless, you can't drink less, no wonder you asked me to live in the same house with you, it turned out that I was asked to serve you." Han Yixue pinched her nose and scolded in a low voice, her face was full of helplessness, and she couldn't help but think of the time when Wang Xu was drunk in Cloud City, and a touch of crimson instantly covered her cheeks.
"Ahem, thirsty, Xiaoxue, pour me some water." Wang Xu's situation was obviously much better than when he was in Cloud City, and he was still conscious at this time, coughed dryly, opened his eyes and said to Han Yixue.
"Humph!" Han Yixue snorted coldly, went to pour Wang Xu a glass of water, helped Wang Xu to feed him, just put down the cup, and was about to ask Wang Xu how the two of them slept tonight, and when they turned around, they heard Wang Xu's slight snoring, and this guy had obviously said it had passed.
"Badass." Han Yixue gritted her teeth angrily, she didn't know what to do, the bed in this presidential suite was good, but Wang Xu was lying directly in the middle of the big bed at this time, Han Yixue stretched out her hand and pushed it twice, only to get Wang Xu's two muffled snorts.
ps: Because Han Yixue has reappeared in the field of vision of all book friends, some people in the book review area have posted book reviews from time to time in the past few days, saying that they are not a single female protagonist who has abandoned the article and does not plan to read Yunyun.
Xiaoxiao really laughed, did the book friend who posted this kind of book review have any thoughts, did he threaten Xiaoxiao, so okay, whether I will write this article, or you will write it, don't guess what plot at every turn, don't read it, do it, I still write Mao, it's okay not to read it, let's go quietly, don't affect Xiaoxiao's feelings.
