Time passes slowly, the day passes in a flash, in the practice, the time flies too fast, there is no feeling, the time of the day passes.

After a day of practice, everyone is already familiar with this place and can play at their original level.

As for whether or not he can actually enter the state banquet, it depends on tomorrow's selection.

The only ones who are really nervous, the chefs who have attended the state banquet before, are not so nervous.

The so-called newcomer does not mean that he is not very old. Among the chefs who were invited, except for Takanori, everyone else was not young.

The so-called newcomers are nothing more than invited.

In fact, every time there is a state banquet, many newcomers will be invited, but only a few can participate in the state banquet in the end.

Most of the chefs are still old people.

However, there are chefs who have declined and new chefs have joined, and overall, nothing has changed.

In the evening, Gao Dian was on the phone with Wei Qiaoyi in the hotel room.

"Actually, I'm a little nervous."

The two chatted and talked about Gao Dian's participation in this state banquet, and Gao Dian said so on the phone.

"Don't be nervous, you should be cooking in the Pawn Heart Building." Wei Qiaoyi comforted.

"If it's really cooking in Dianxin Building, it would be good, but unfortunately the fake can't be real." Gao Dian said.

This method of self-deception, Gao Dian doesn't like it very much, and he can't do it very well.

In contrast, Wei Qiaoyi pondered for a while and said: "Then you can maintain a certain amount of tension, as long as it is not that kind of nervous hand trembling." Anyway, a certain amount of tension can also help you concentrate and allow you to play better. ”

Gao Dian heard the words and said: "It makes sense, it's not so nervous that your hands are shaking, anyway, nervousness is certain." ”

He has also experienced strong winds and waves, where is it so easy to be nervous to the point that his hands tremble?

A little nervous, but there is still some.

After all, this is the first time I have had the opportunity to attend a state dinner, which was previously only seen on TV.

"By the way, in the past few days since I left, how was the Dian Xin Building?" Gao Dian asked.

"It's good, nothing special happens." Wei Qiaoyi said.

Now the Dianxin Building has developed, and there are not so many bad things happening.

You know, behind the Dianxin Building, there is also a tasting building.

The current Appreciation Building is no longer the industry boss and has a very high status.

After the death of Mr. Wei, he inevitably lost his position as the industry leader.

Because you don't live up to your name, someone pulls you down from where you were.

At that time, the Appreciation Building was still trying to save itself, and wanted to pull Gao Dian into the Appreciation Building, and with Gao Dian just winning the first place in the National Pastry Chef Competition, he could stabilize the Appreciation Building for a while.

It's a pity that because of Wei Xu's insistence, Gao Dian was unable to join the Appreciation Building. This also led to the fact that Appreciation House was pulled out of the position of the industry leader in the following month.

At this point, the era of the Appreciation House has completely become a thing of the past.

Although the Appreciation Building has been pulled down to the first position, it still has a high status in the industry.

If you want its status to disappear completely, I'm afraid it will be a long time.

With the taste building behind it, under the combination of the two, other hotels and restaurants do not dare to act rashly.

Wei Xu is not a good stubble, and it is impossible to stand in business for so long, without some means.

Therefore, everyone didn't dare to use any shady means, for fear that Wei Xu's revenge would be more fierce at that time, and the gains would outweigh the losses.

All they can use is to crush them in cooking and marketing!

This method is more difficult, and now Gao Dian is the top pastry chef in China.

Therefore, today's Dianxin Building is calm and calm, and nothing special happens.

Business is also business as usual, with no major changes. Now Dianxin Building has developed its own reputation and has a lot of repeat customers.

Business is generally not bad.

"That's good, if there is anything, you notify me in time, and I can rush back." Gao Dian admonished.

He was afraid that Wei Qiaoyi was alone over there, and she didn't know what to do if something happened.

This is Gao Dian underestimating Wei Qiaoyi, she is not a weak woman, she is just weak in front of Gao Dian.

"Well, I know, don't worry, there won't be any problems in Dianxin Building, you can stay where you can stay with peace of mind and prepare for the state banquet." Wei Qiaoyi whispered.

"Okay." Gao Dian responded.

"By the way, are you really going to make that pastry?" Wei Qiaoyi asked.

Gao Dian said: "Well, it's all been reported, and there is no way to change it if you want to." ”

Wei Qiaoyi sighed slightly and said, "Actually, you have a better choice, there is no need to choose that pastry." ”

Gao Dian smiled and said: "This is the best choice, don't worry, I haven't spent this time in vain." ”

Hearing Gao Dian say this, Wei Qiaoyi didn't say anything anymore, so as not to discourage Gao Dian's enthusiasm.

It's just that Wei Qiaoyi is a pity, maybe choosing another pastry is a better choice.

Of course, it's too late to say these things now, Gao Dian has already reported it, and there is no way to change it if he wants to.

"Let's talk about something else." Gao Dian said.

"Hmm." Wei Qiao responded.

The two chatted for a long time, until Gao Dian's mobile phone ran out of battery, and the two reluctantly hung up the phone.

Gao Dian missed Wei Qiaoyi a little, he hadn't seen him for a few days, and he felt as if a long time had passed.

On the other side, Wei Qiaoyi was also thinking about Gao Dian, she hoped that Gao Dian would come back soon, but she understood that Gao Dian could not come back early.

The preparation time for each state banquet is very long, especially one like this one.

Now there is still a period of time before the state banquet begins, and it will be a long time before Gao Dian wants to come back.

I didn't feel that time passed so slowly before, but now I don't see it every day.

Both of them were thinking about each other, and time passed slowly.

…………

Next.

Gao Dian got up early, he moved his body, and then went out for breakfast.

After breakfast, he went to the training kitchen. When he came, there were already quite a few people waiting here.

The old people who had attended the state banquet before were talking and laughing, while the newcomers were nervous and stood there motionless.

Gao Dian also had the feeling of taking the exam, as if this was the exam room, and a nervous mood arose.

Soon, the other chefs arrived, each choosing a place to stand.

After a while, Yu Lao walked in and looked at everyone with a flat look.

Suddenly, the newcomers couldn't help but straighten their waists a little.

"After a day's practice yesterday, you must be familiar with this place." Yu Lao said.

Hearing this, everyone nodded, they were indeed familiar with this place.

The last person standing here is a first-class pastry chef, and a day's practice is enough for them to get acquainted with this place.

Seeing everyone nodding, Yu Lao said, "That's good, next, let's make pastries in order." ”

Now, it's time for him to test his level.

Checking is necessary, this is the final step of the screening process, and as much as possible, to screen out the most suitable pastry chef.

The newcomers may not know it very well, but the old people know it.

Those who can receive invitations can meet the level of state banquets in terms of cooking skills.

Otherwise, Mr. Yu would not have sent an invitation, after all, it would be a waste of time to call some people who were not good enough?

It's just that there are few people left in the end, mainly for two reasons.

One is that the learning ability is not strong enough to remember various dietary taboos.

The other is that they can't play at their usual level.

For the first reason, there is nothing to say. Mainly for the latter reason, there are a lot of people who brush down.

There are two aspects to the so-called inability to perform at a normal level.

One is that he is too nervous, his mentality is not strong enough, he seems to be very powerful on weekdays, but when he encounters something, his mentality explodes.

The other is the reported pastry, the ingredients have been changed a little, resulting in the original taste cannot be made.

Yu Lao looked at everyone with a calm face, and he didn't know how many people would play abnormally this time.

The chefs went to cook one by one, and no one fought for it the whole time, everyone just watched calmly.

Under the eyes of many peers, the pressure is relatively large, and misses are also common.

Such a little pressure could not be less than the pressure of a real state banquet. If you can't bear this pressure, then don't talk about the state banquet.

How stressful is the state dinner?

Even a veteran like him who participated in the state banquet, every time he had a state banquet, he was nervous.

But nervousness is nervousness, and what should be done still has to be done.

State banquet chefs are not so easy to be, even temporary state banquet chefs.

The old people can basically pass, and the pass rate of the newcomers is a bit miserable.

This couldn't help but make Yu Lao sigh secretly in his heart, this time the newcomer felt worse than the previous times.

Most of the newcomers have passed, but only two barely passed.

Such a result made Yu Lao dissatisfied, which was not what he wanted.

Of course, he couldn't help it.

He can't do this kind of thing, after all, he really has to go into the kitchen to cook.

Soon, there were fewer and fewer people in the training kitchen who did not cook, and the failure of most of the people in front made the newcomers in the back more stressed.

Gao Dian couldn't help but get even more nervous, there was no way not to be nervous, the cooking skills of those people in front of him were not much worse than him.

But they were all eliminated, which made Gao Dian worry about whether he would be eliminated as well.

Time passed slowly, and soon it was Takanori's turn to cook.

He took a deep breath, his nervousness not going away, but he was pressed into his heart, and his attention began to focus.

Soon, he entered a state of concentration, and the only thing in his world at the moment was the pastry he was about to make.

Seeing this, Yu Lao couldn't help but sigh in his heart, in this case, it was really good to be able to go in and concentrate.

Everyone present can enter the so-called state of concentration, but in a stressful situation, it is more difficult to enter this state.

And Gao Dian was able to enter a state of concentration in this situation, which made Yu Lao more optimistic about him.

Among the newcomers, Yu Lao is the most optimistic about the youngest Gao Dian. Now it seems that Gao Dian did not disappoint him.

This made Yu Lao feel a little comforted.

As time passed, the pastries made by Gao Dian gradually took shape, and Yu Lao couldn't help frowning slightly when he saw this.

It's actually this pastry!

He didn't understand a little, according to his understanding of Gao Dian, he should have a better choice of pastries, why did he choose this one?

Yu Lao's understanding of Gao Dian was learned after the National Pastry Chef Competition.

Before, Yu Lao was not particularly interested in Gao Dian, and he was busy with all kinds of things in the kitchen, where did he have so much time to pay attention to a young man.

But in the finals, Gao Dian's performance really amazed Yu Lao. even asked him to personally invite Gao Dian to work in the state banquet kitchen.

It's a pity that this matter was rejected by Gao Dian.

It was from this time that Yu Lao had a high interest in Gao Dian, and when he was free, he even turned out some of Gao Dian's previous game videos and watched them.

Slowly, he got to know Gao Dian more and more.

Although he had doubts in his heart, he could only suppress it in his heart at this time, and he couldn't ask.

After all, at this time, Gao Dian was cooking seriously, and outsiders were not allowed to disturb him.

Gao Dian finally cooked this pastry.

Before tasting it, Yu Lao suddenly asked, "Xiao Gao, let me ask you a question, why did you think about making this pastry?" ”

Hearing this, Gao Dian couldn't help but be stunned, no one else was asked questions, why was it his turn to be asked?

However, Gao Dian still replied: "Because this is my best choice." ”

Hearing this, instead of praising him, Yu Lao frowned slightly.

White jade jade dumplings.

This pastry is just a semi-finished pastry, although as a semi-finished product, it is enough to compare to some finished pastries.

At the end of the day, it's a half-finished pastry.

Gaodian has better options, such as lily crisp, such as knife-cut noodles, and then dragon whisker noodles.

However, he chose a half-finished pastry.

Could it be that Gao Dian has perfected this pastry?

A ridiculous idea suddenly rose in Yu Lao's heart.

Immediately, he shook his head in denial.

How easy is it to perfect white jade jade dumplings?

Perfecting this pastry is as difficult as recreating it.

But Gao Dian said that it was the best choice, which made Yu Lao slightly disappointed in his heart.

You shouldn't have chosen this one!

On the other side, Zhang Hongsheng, who is a pastry master, raised his eyebrows slightly, it was actually this pastry!

He knew this pastry, not from Gao Dian, but from the hands of Old Man Wei.

At the beginning, Zhang Hongsheng became a special first-class pastry chef, which can be described as high-spirited.

He has always regarded Old Man Wei as an idol and an object to chase after, and he happened to hear Old Man Wei create a very powerful pastry.

He went to the door, and with his level as a first-class pastry chef, he went to visit the old man Wei and asked to see the legendary very powerful pastry.

At that time, Old Man Wei also agreed and showed him a look.

That pastry is the white jade jade dumplings.
