Chapter 238: The Competition

At the beginning of the first day of competition, Gao Dian and Wei Qiaoyi came to a different place from yesterday's opening ceremony.

This is where they compete.

In the five games on the first day, Gao Dian and Wei Qiaoyi sat quietly in the audience and watched, cheering for the players participating in the competition from time to time.

Sitting for so long can be a bit boring for others. But for Gao Dian, it's not so boring.

He sat here, looking at the pastry food from all over the world, and his heart was not only a little emotional, but also different places and cultures.

In his free time, Gao Dian and Wei Qiaoyi whispered again, discussing things about noodles during the game.

The day passed.

…………

The second day of the competition.

Today's Gao Dian's state is obviously a little different, his expression is more serious, and he doesn't have the kind of relaxation as yesterday.

He is in the seventh group, and in the second game today, it will be Gao Dian's turn.

It would be false to say that he was not nervous, such an international event, so many people watched, and he was a little nervous.

This is the first time he has appeared on such a stage.

Wei Qiaoyi sat next to Gao Dian, saw his nervousness, and said softly: "Don't be too nervous, relax." ”

Gao Dian smiled bitterly: "I want to too, but I can't help it." ”

"You imagine everyone else as pigs, so you don't have to be nervous?" Wei Qiaoyi said.

Gao Dian thought for a while and said, "This scene is too weird. ”

The pigs stared at it with stunned eyes, and the scene was indeed a little weird.

"Anyway, it's good to pretend that they don't exist, so you don't feel so nervous." Wei Qiaoyi said.

"I'll try." Gao Dian answered and began to close his eyes and recuperate.

Seeing this, Wei Qiaoyi didn't bother Gao Dian.

Time passed slowly, and it was Gao Dian's turn to play.

He opened his eyes and stood up.

"Come on!" Wei Qiaoyi said.

Around, other people also spoke one after another, asking Gao Dian to cheer.

Gao Dian smiled and nodded, took a deep breath, suppressed his nervousness, and walked to the arena of the competition.

On the competition field, there are ten stoves scattered around, and there are cameras shooting around, and drones are flying.

Gao Dian stood in his position, and after a while, a staff member sent over the ingredients.

The same is true for other contestants, and the ingredients are different for each contestant.

After Gao Dian got the ingredients, he checked them, and there was no problem with the ingredients, and it was also the batch of ingredients he handed over.

During the inspection of the ingredients, the host began to introduce the ten contestants.

During this time, other contestants also sent kitchen utensils one after another.

The production process of pastries and desserts requires different kitchen utensils, some need an oven, some need a steamer, and some even need a refrigerator.

Of course, there are some special kitchenware that the organizer cannot prepare one by one, so these kitchenware are brought by the contestants.

This is actually more in line with the wishes of the contestants, you know, kitchen utensils should be used for a long time before they are ready.

Gao Dian didn't bring too many things, that is, rolling pins, knives, and the rest, such as pots, spoons, and colanders, which the organizers prepared one by one.

"You're the third-level pastry chef? Ready to fail? Someone on the side said in English.

Gao Dian didn't understand it too much, his English was only past level 4, and some commonly used conversations could be roughly understood, but he couldn't understand them if they were too complicated.

But looking at the man's expression, Gao Dian knew that it would not be a good word.

Since he didn't understand it very well, and his spoken language was not very good, to avoid being ridiculed for his loose English, Gao Dian chose to ignore it.

After the host introduced them one by one, the competition began.

Gao Dian suddenly entered a state of concentration, with no distractions, and only the production of pastries was in his mind.

…………

"Brother Dian's game has begun, you see." Lou Xiangpeng said.

The other four looked over, and Gao Dian began to make lily cakes.

"Lily crisp?" Feng Zhigang said.

"It seems that it should be, lily cake is Gao Dian's specialty, and when he was training before, he won a first-class pastry chef by relying on it. At this moment, if you choose to make a lily cake, you should be able to advance. Zhou Yongqing said.

Li Dongyang didn't seem to be too optimistic, he frowned and watched Gao Dian make lily cakes.

He knew that this lily crisp recipe was not a real secret recipe, although it was better than what could be searched on the Internet, but it was only good.

Lou Xiangpeng looked at Li Dongyang and wondered: "Li Dongyang, why do you have such an expression?" ”

"The recipe for the lily crisp...... Somewhat ordinary. Li Dongyang said.

"What do you mean?" Lou Xiangpeng was stunned.

"It's literal." Zhou Yongqing said.

He glanced at Li Dongyang, who was frowning on the side, and explained: "The recipe of lily crisp is somewhat ordinary, and it is usually enough, but in this arena, I am afraid that it is not enough." ”

"Ahh How so! Lou Xiangpeng was suddenly a little worried.

"But it should be no problem to advance." Feng Zhigang said.

"Although the recipe for this lily crisp made by Gao Dian is more ordinary, as long as he can achieve an impeccable level, there is no problem in promotion." Feng Zhigang said.

But what if someone else makes this level of pastry? Isn't it difficult for Brother Dian to advance? Lou Xiangpeng asked.

"That's right, but you don't have to worry, it's not that easy to be impeccable, I don't believe it can be done." Feng Zhigang said.

Lou Xiangpeng nodded and didn't speak, but there was a hint of worry in his eyes.

Li Dongyang was thinking in his heart, should he ask the master to teach the secret to Gao Dian?

Teach him, can he master it in a short time?

Li Dongyang was a little entangled in his heart.

On the Internet, many people are swiping the barrage.

"! It's over, it's over, it's a shame. ”

"Hey! The organizer will not change people, just wait for the loss of face today! ”

"How dare he play?"

"What would you not dare? I dare to play if I change it, even if it's a round of tours, but we have also participated in international competitions, and our value is different. ”

"Also, do you think that's what you think about this high ceremony? In order to increase your worth later? ”

"The 666 analyzed by my brother, I think it's very likely."

"Prophet? The knife is gone! ”

…………

Not many people are optimistic about Gao Dian, even if they are fans of Gao Dian, they are also unknown at this time, occasionally sending a sentence "Gao Dian, come on!" Soon sank in the barrage.

As time slowly passed, many people on the Internet recognized what Gao Dian did, it was a lily cake!

Some time ago, the lily cake became popular on the Internet for a while, and many people knew it.

Lily Cake is very famous, but everyone is still not optimistic about Gao Dian, because he is a third-level pastry chef.

How good can a third-level pastry chef make lily cake?

Now, most netizens are waiting for Gao Dian to lose face and wait for him to be eliminated.

…………

Last night, after Gao Dian's efforts, he finally fine-tuned the improved lily cake to a better level.

Although Gao Dian felt that it was still the best, there was no time.

The improved lily crisp tastes a little different from before, but overall, it is more delicious.

He did it very quickly, although Gao Dian had deliberately made himself do it slower and more carefully, but he was so skilled that many movements did not need to be thought about at all.

Gao Dian was the fourth to complete, and there were already three contestants in front of him who had completed it, and after tasting it, the judges also gave scores.

Gao Dian is the fourth, and there are six more to follow.

He put the lily crisp on a plate and garnished with some mint leaves.

Soon, a staff member helped bring the lily cake to the judges.

Ten judges, from different countries.

They're not chefs, they're gourmets!

Some are editors-in-chief of food magazines, some are food bloggers who enjoy life, and some are wealthy people who explore food.

In this competition, they didn't ask for any appearance fees, all of them came voluntarily.

With a love for food, they came to be judges.

At the same time, these judges have also been screened by the organizers, and they are all people who can basically maintain fairness and impartiality.

"Oh! Oh, God! Is this a flower? ”

"I swear, it looks no different from the real flower, it's so beautiful."

"This is a lily cake, so named because the flowers bloom like lilies." A Chinese judge said.

…………

The exclamations of the judges appeared in the live broadcast unabashedly.

The commentary also introduces some knowledge of lily cakes on the side, of course, everyone didn't listen to it much.

Barrage:

"This lily cake is really exquisite, looking at it from a distance, I really thought it was a lily."

"What's the use of being exquisite? Delicious is king. ”

"If you can make it so exquisite, it shouldn't taste too bad."

"Hehe, you think too much, if the taste is not bad, why is he still a third-level pastry chef? I think it's just superficial work, it's good-looking, and it's definitely not delicious. ”

"I'm a professional, it's very difficult for Lily Crisp to make like this, and I think Gao Dian's level is more than a third-level pastry chef."

"Is it hard? This doesn't have hands? ”

…………

After the ten judges were amazed, someone said, "I can't wait, let's try it quickly." ”

"Oh~ I can't bear to spoil this beautiful little guy."

"yes, it's so beautiful, I think it's okay to be a work of art."

……

The judges were talking, but the movements in their hands were not slow at all.

They are accustomed to seeing fine food, and they know that food is meant to be eaten, not seen.

When the lily cake was bitten lightly, the petals on the outside were broken, and the crispy taste instantly conquered the judges.

Several ingredients in the filling, sweet but not greasy, red dates, candied fruits, peanuts...... Each ingredient offers a different taste, each with its own differences, but also complements each other.

Needless to say, the taste is self-explanatory, although there are several ingredients, but it doesn't look messy, Gao Dian is like a general who is good at arranging troops, and the taste of each ingredient is just right.

Everyone's positioning of deliciousness is generally different, and for the judges, if they want to make them feel delicious, ordinary dishes are no longer enough.

They've tasted so much deliciousness that the bar for deliciousness is constantly rising.

However, once again, they felt delicious, this little lily cake, which looked simple on the outside, but was extremely rich on the inside.

It's like a girl who is simple on the outside.,But inside has an extremely colorful world.。

The judges closed their eyes and felt the deliciousness.

…………

In the live broadcast, the barrage has changed again.

"What are these judges doing?"

"I'll go, this expression ......"

"Screenshotted!"

"Are they enjoying the deliciousness?"

"It's ridiculous, what delicious pastry can be made by a third-level pastry chef? I think it's just a show. ”

……

After a long time, the judges opened their eyes.

At this time, the host said, "Please give a score to the judges!" How many points can our player Gao Dian score? ”

The judges whispered and wrote something.

After the meeting, the host said loudly: "Now, please show the scores!" ”

As soon as the host's voice fell, the judges showed their respective scores.

The moderators said one by one:

"91 points!"

"90.5 points!"

"89.5 points!"

"91 points!"

"90 points!"

"88 points!"

"93 points!"

"89.5 points!"

"92 points!"

"91.5 points!"

The scores given by the judges surprised many people.

You must know that the scoring standards of these judges are very high, and many contestants can only get scores of more than 70 or 80.

To be able to get so many points above 90, there are not many such players so far.

"Remove the lowest score, remove the highest score, and finally the player Gao Dian scored 90.625!"

As soon as this score came out, there was a round of applause at the scene.

This is the second place to finish above 90 points today, the last one was a player in Group 6.

Meanwhile.

In the live broadcast, the barrage was in an uproar.

"What the hell? 90.625, that's fake, right? ”

"Match-fixing?"

"Probably not, those people are very authoritative in the food industry, and one of them is the editor-in-chief of Michelin magazine. They wouldn't help a Chinese player give such a fake score. ”

"That is to say, there is only one truth, Gao Dian is really powerful!"

"I feel a little pain in my face."

"You're not alone"

"Gao Dian is the best, now you know, right? I didn't figure it out one by one, so I just said it there. ”

"Hehe, it's just luck, Gao Dian is lucky, if he really has strength, why is he still a third-level pastry chef?"

"You can only talk about this, and you won't allow Gao Dian to progress too fast and have no time to take the exam?"

"Yo yo, so good at licking?"

……

Slowly, the barrage is no longer one-sided, but polarized.

Fans who supported Gao Dian before can now speak with a straight back.

Most people were silent, they didn't know what to say now, and Gao Dian proved that he had strength.

These referees are from different countries, and all of them are well-known in the industry, how can they give random points?

People with brains know when they think about it.

But they said a lot of bad things about Gao Dian before, scolded Gao Dian, and slapped their faces in the face, which made their faces a little hot.

There are also some people who are stubborn, or they may not be stubborn, but they just don't want to see Gao Dian turn over like this.
