Body 408
Along the way, Jian Xiaoqi thought of what Senior Guo said, this game is not only watched by onlookers, but also broadcast live by TV reporters, and the audience around the world can see it at that time!
Thinking about it, Jian Xiaoqi was excited and couldn't sit still.
On TV? She never thought about it!
Although she herself studied journalism, she shouldn't have been afraid of the camera, but just thinking that Si Yan might see herself at home, she was thrown into a stone for no reason, causing ripples layer after layer......
But then he comforted himself, he, he shouldn't have this free time, right?
Thinking about it like this, Jian Xiaoqi relaxed a little in his heart, and then secretly spat himself: Bah, I said that I don't care about him for the time being, why do you care about what he thinks?
After passing the level in his heart, Jian Xiaoqi's whole body relaxed, and gradually, he leaned back on the chair and closed his eyes to recuperate......
In the evening, Jian Xiaoqi mentioned this matter to Jian's mother, but fortunately, Jian's mother did not embarrass her because of this.
"Mom, this competition will take about two or three days, see if I can ......"
Striking while the iron was hot, Jian Xiaoqi said that she wanted to stay for two more days, and above her head, the sight from Jian's mother almost peeped at her completely, causing her heart to "thump"!
After a long time, Mother Jian sighed, "Since you want to go, then go!" But you have to deal with the work side, and you can't just follow your own ideas. โ
Jian Xiaoqi nodded immediately, "Well, I have already told Editor-in-Chief Lin, and she also agrees with my idea and asks me to conduct a follow-up interview here as a magazine editor!" โ
These, Jian Xiaoqi has been ready for a long time!
Listening to her words, Mother Jian raised her eyebrows in surprise, she didn't expect that she was very chartered this time, and she even took these things into account!
"That's good, anyway, you've grown up, and I can't keep an eye on you all the time, there are some things you have to learn to deal with by yourself." Mother Jian was relieved, but she couldn't help but mention a few words to her.
Jian Xiaoqi should go down one by one.
The next day, Jian Xiaoqi got up early in the morning, didn't even have time to eat breakfast, and after saying hello to Jane's mother, he asked the driver to send him to the Golden Hotel.
Today is the first day of the competition, a total of 160 participating chefs from all over the world, will be divided into 16 groups, each group of 10 people, divided into two rounds, the two highest scores will advance!
When Jian Xiaoqi arrived, it was only nine o'clock, but the West Avenue Square was already crowded with people, including blonde and blue-eyed Western locals, as well as black-haired and yellow-skinned Oriental tourists.
As soon as she got out of the car and was about to enter the hotel, the receptionist of the hotel standing at the door saw her, walked up and chattered, and then pointed to the other side of the hotel.
โโฆโฆโ
Jian Xiaoqi shook her head ignorantly, and the receptionist quickly understood and introduced it again in Chinese, which made her suddenly realize. It turns out that the hotel has another door, where there is an elevator to the back kitchen of the hotel.
"Thanks, I'll go!"
After thanking the receptionist, Jian Xiaoqi directly carried his bag and walked back in the direction he pointed out just now. Sure enough, it didn't take long to find a more low-key door here, and many people who looked similar to her entered through it.
The back kitchen of the Golden Hotel is estimated to be the largest in the whole F country, both in terms of venue and equipment, it is enough to accommodate ten groups of chefs at the same time.
When Jian Xiaoqi entered the kitchen, Guo Linchen and the others were already there.
"Little girl, you're finally here? Come over here! โ
Liu Dongnan, the most talkative in the team, immediately waved her hand when he saw Jian Xiaoqi.
Jian Xiaoqi walked over with a smile and greeted everyone, Guo Linchen saw that everyone was coming, so he asked her to go to the cloakroom first to change into the chef's uniform.
Jian Xiaoqi didn't dare to delay, so he went immediately, and soon returned to their venue.
"When the competition starts, the first part is to choose the ingredients, everyone pay attention, because the hotel only provides two ingredients at most, but there are ten groups of chefs participating in the competition at the same time, so we have to speed up!"
Guo Linchen said, glancing at all the team members.
For chefs, the first step in choosing ingredients is crucial, and if they want to win in everyone's group, they have to get a head start.
"Yes!"
Everyone replied in unison, and even Jian Xiaoqi's heart was raised, with an inexplicable sense of excitement. If she had comforted herself to be a bystander before, now she can't deceive herself.
She's already part of the team!
Guo Linchen saw her pressure at a glance, and while she inhaled and exhaled, he whispered: "Don't be stressed, everyone else is the same as us, you have to believe in my cooking skills!" โ
Guo Linchen said it easily, but Jian Xiaoqi didn't believe it.
Although other people have to pass this level, the four assistants are all professional! At her level, she's not even an amateur!
"Oh, what do I need to take in that moment? You can tell me in advance, I'm ......."
At this point, Jian Xiaoqi automatically shut up. Well, for the sake of fairness, the organizer did not even announce the ingredients provided by the hotel in advance, and let the members of each group play temporarily!
Guo Linchen smiled and patted her shoulder, "Okay, when the time comes, just try to choose some fruits!" "It's also kind of giving her a goal, so that she doesn't feel too stressed.
Sure enough, Jian Xiaoqi's eyes lit up when he heard his words, and he nodded his head heavily, "Okay, then I'll pick the fruit for a while!" โ
Guo Linchen smiled and nodded, which was considered to have agreed to her request, and this trust made Jian Xiaoqi very moved.
The countdown to the competition has begun, and the first round is the appetizer, and each team needs to complete 20 dishes within the stipulated 50 minutes.
Because I have to choose the ingredients, the time is still very tight!
The timer begins, and all the ingredients are stacked on a shelf in a public place, from which all the chefs and assistants have to get the ingredients they want.
And Jian Xiaoqi remembered what he had just said, and as soon as the timer started, he rushed towards those brightly colored and delicious fruits.
Because Guo Linchen said that these may be used in every dish in the future.
Her speed is not slow, but unfortunately she is not very tall, and she can't get more than a block above her head! But even so, she has gained a lot.
At the end of the five-minute period, the team returned to their territory with the ingredients they had confidently retrieved, and began to list the dishes along with them.
Of course, Jian Xiaoqi couldn't do anything about these things, so he had to stand aside and watch them go on.
It is worth mentioning that Jian Xiaoqi had heard of the toughness of foreign media personnel before, but he didn't expect that these people were really ubiquitous. The camera footage almost squeezed her out of the competition!
Guo Linchen probably saw this scene, and wrinkled his eyebrows, "Xiao Qi, you come and wash these fruits and vegetables." โ
He took one, such as cherries, eggplants, carrots, and the like, and it looked like he was going to use them in a moment.
"Oh, okay, I'll do it right away!"
Jian Xiaoqi nodded, immediately rolled up his sleeves a little higher, revealing his white wrists, and then began to wash from the fruit. The action is quite skilled!
When Guo Linchen was thinking about the menu, he glanced at her seriously out of the corner of his eye, and the corners of his mouth slid out a shallow arc......
What the situation is outside, Jian Xiaoqi doesn't know, but he only knows that this game will be broadcast live on TV, so the chefs can't make mistakes.
Jian Xiaoqi didn't know if she was on camera or not, how long she stayed in the camera, she just sat down seriously with her head down.
As everyone knows, her scene has already fallen in the eyes of people in front of the TV.
The morning game of country F is going on here, and at the same time in Rong'an City, it is already evening, and it is the time for thousands of lights to prepare dinner.
At this time, the employees of Si's are all holding their breath one by one, for fear of being corrected by their bosses to make a mistake. But today, everyone is rarely relieved.
Because, their big boss Si Shao has already left work!
This is a rare big event, in the eyes of the employees of the Si Group, the ultimate boss of their own family, it is simply a god-like existence. This god not only refers to strong ability, but also refers to the spirit of not wanting to die at work, which is completely out of the normal person's work and rest time.
But today, he actually got off work first?
Let's get off work first!
Some people still couldn't believe it, and they were not afraid to die to ask Fei Mingyuan, the celebrity next to the boss, "Secretary Fei, is the boss really gone?" Today...... Don't have to work overtime? โ
As soon as he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Fei Mingyuan's terrible laughter.
"No overtime? That's the general manager's work has been done, have you done it too? I remember giving you a project earlier, but I don't know ......."
Fei Mingyuan's voice carried a hint of threat, and his eyes carried a murderous aura, so before he finished speaking, someone began to beg for mercy.
"Don't, don't, how can we compare with Mr. Si? Right? Yes! I've got a good idea in mind, so I'm going to go back and write it! โ
After the employee finished speaking, he shrugged his head and walked away.
"Poofโ"
Fei Mingyuan sneered, glanced at the crowd who were scattered, a touch of pride slipped through his eyes, and said to himself: "Compared with the boss? Can you make a few big orders in a few words? โ
It's a pity that no one answered him, Fei Mingyuan shrugged his shoulders after speaking, glanced at the office of the general manager, and finally turned around and left to work.
When Si Yan returned home, he had no idea how much shock his early departure today would bring to those subordinates. Of course, even if he knew, he couldn't change his mind!
As for why he came back so early?
Si Yan walked into the villa where he and Jian Xiaoqi had been living, and looked at the empty, cold and quiet living room where there was no sound at all, he still frowned subconsciously, and then changed his slippers before walking in.
Today is the third day!
Si Yan took off his coat and put it on the hanger, walked to the sofa and sat down, and then without saying a word, he picked up the remote control on the coffee table and turned on the TV that he hadn't used for a long time.
Then, instead of watching what was on the TV, he just tilted his head back and fell on the soft sofa, ready to close his eyes and take a nap.
In my brain, I suddenly remembered what Yang Zicheng said to him half-jokingly when he came to his company today, "Hey, don't say buddy, I won't help you, you can go back and turn on the TV today, remember, it's FTV!" โ
Moreover, when he said those words again, Yang Zicheng's eyes clearly flashed with a pretended mysterious gesture, could it be that there was some inside story?
Si Yan reacted, and suddenly straightened up from the sofa, his eyes narrowed, staring closely at this set of programs that seemed to be live broadcasts of food competitions......
Suddenly, when the TV camera turned to one of the teams, the figure that appeared on the screen was so familiar that it couldn't be more familiar, making the corners of Si Yan's eyes widen suddenly, and even his breathing became rapid.
She was......
