Chapter 1: The First Person in the New Era (Ask for Recommendation, Ask for Collection!) )
Location, Huaxia, a luxury cruise ship on the Yangtze River.
A large-scale halberd is being held here, and the audience is tens of thousands, all of whom are the top people of society.
There are world-class billionaires with unknown assets, world-renowned gourmets, and culinary giants from all over the world.
They all looked at the two cooking tables and the judges' bench in the center of the venue, waiting for the halberd to begin.
"Distinguished guests, welcome to "Love Me Huaxia", I am the host of this halberd, Li Mi! I'm sure you've been looking forward to this halberd for a long time, so let's not waste any time, first of all, we invite our three judges to appear! ”
As soon as the host Li Mi's voice fell, the light in the venue suddenly became dim, and several follow-up lights turned on, illuminating an entrance.
"Step, step, step ......"
The sound of crisp footsteps came, and I saw three old men walking slowly.
One of them was dressed in Tang costumes, with gray hair, but he was more than 1.8 meters tall, with a strong body, bright eyes, and a resolute face, which could not be seen at all as an old man over 90 years old.
The second is a white-haired old man in a strict suit, with the same height of more than 1.8 meters, as well as a strong body, and a steady and powerful step.
And the last one is an old woman in a Japanese kimono, although she is short and has a rickety body, her eyes are shining, and her body exudes a terrifying momentum.
The three of them walked slowly to the three judges' seats and sat down, closed their eyes, and patiently waited for the start of this halberd.
"Isn't it?"
"They are the judges this time?"
"It's horrible!"
"It's worthy of that demon, I actually want to invite the three of them to be judges."
……
Seeing the three judges on the bench, everyone at the scene exclaimed.
"I think you all know the three judges, but please allow me to introduce to you, the first judge, the president of the Huaxia Food Association, one of the three leaders in the Chinese cuisine industry, Edward Lau's senior!" The host Li Mi introduced the first old man in Tang costume.
"The second judge, Mr. Karl, one of the "Three Sages" of the IGO International Gastronomy Institute, "scalpel"! "This is the second tall old man in a suit.
"The third judge, the contemporary host of the Neon Chiyo Shrine, Granny Chiyoda!" The identity of the third kimono old woman is also called out.
With the end of the host Li Mi's introduction, the scene was not as noisy as before, and everyone looked at the three people on the stage with respect.
All three of them are leading figures in the culinary industry, who have made great contributions to the culinary world around the world, and except for Chiyoda Mi, who is a highly respected gourmet, the other two are the highest level dragon chefs.
In the world, the dragon chef who is still active in the eyes of the world is no longer more than the index of hands, and there are two people present at the scene, and the other is also an important old-timer.
All the guests here are more or less people who are involved in cooking, so for the three people on the stage, they will only offer silent respect, and any superfluous compliments are an offense.
"So everyone, now we have the two protagonists of the halberd this time!"
As the voice fell, two more chasing lights hit the entrances at the left and right ends of the venue.
As footsteps sounded, two very different chefs appeared in everyone's field of vision.
The host, Li Mi, first introduced the chef who entered on the right.
"First of all, I would like to introduce to you His Excellency George Lubson, the famous chef of France and the manager and chef of the main store of the "Fête royale" in France! ”
A middle-aged man with blond hair in his fifties, dressed in a crisp white chef's suit, walked to his cooking table without squinting, his meticulously groomed face was matched with a gentle but majestic smile, like a real nobleman.
Then, the host Li Mi turned to the other side.
And Chef Lubsong's opponent is Mr. Yang Cao, who is known as a "once-in-a-century genius"! He broke the historical record and reached the rank of Lin Chef at the age of fifteen, and was hailed as the first person in the new era! So after three years, at the age of eighteen, what kind of progress will he show us? Let's wait and see! ”
As the words fell, Yang Cao, who was wearing a black Chinese chef's uniform embroidered with a golden phoenix, also stood in front of the cooking table.
"Young man, I admit that you are indeed very talented, and it can be said that it is unprecedented to be able to reach the current height at your age, but the difference in experience is not something that can be made up by talent, if you want to admit defeat, it is still too late." George Lubson said calmly to Yang Cao.
"Hehe, thank you for your advice, Chef Lubson, but I'm still very confident in my cooking." Yang Cao replied with a smile.
"Hmph, I hope you can still laugh later." Seeing that he had touched a soft nail, George Lubson did not bother to say any more, closed his eyes, and waited for the halberd to begin.
"Then everyone, here I will re-announce their respective conditions, if Chef Lu Busong wins, Chef Yang Cao will announce to the world that Chinese cuisine is inferior to French cuisine, and he will retire from the chef line forever."
"Wow~"
With the introduction of the host Li Mi, the scene was in an uproar.
"That's too much, isn't it?"
"Is the bet so big?"
"Chef Lubsong's bet is a bit overdone, isn't it?"
"This is a blatant declaration of war against the Chinese cuisine world!"
"Also, Yang Cao will quit the chef line forever, is it possible? Don't forget that he is a member of the "Yang family"! ”
……
Hearing this condition, all the Chinese chefs on the scene clenched their fists and stared at George Lubson, and even the old timers of Edward Lau on the stage opened their eyes slightly and glanced at George Lubzon with fear.
"Ahem, please be quiet, I want to announce Mr. Yang Cao's conditions, if Mr. Yang Cao wins, Chef Lu Busong will also retire from the culinary world forever, at the same time!" All the properties of Fête royale will belong to Mr. Yang Cao! And publicly apologize to the entire Chinese culinary community! The host Li Mi announced.
"Wow~"
The scene was in an uproar again, sighing at the horror of this halberd, the first condition, one of the two must quit the culinary world, that is, the Lin chef who is still active in the world must be reduced by one person.
This is a loss for the entire culinary world.
On the other hand, George Lubson is simply openly declaring war on the Chinese culinary world, and even if he wins, he will probably suffer tragic revenge.
The conditions on Yang Cao's side are now more relaxed, and if he wins, it will only involve George Lubson personally, and he will not provoke disputes between the Chinese cuisine and the French cuisine industry.
Although I learned that the two Lin chefs initiated the halberd, I knew that the gambling contract must not be simple, but I didn't expect it to be so amazing, and everyone began to guess why there was such a halberd.
In the end, seeing that the noise of the crowd could not be calmed down completely, the host Li Mi had no choice but to ask the person who raised the halberd.
"May I ask Mr. Yang Cao, you initiated this halberd first, right?"
Yang Cao looked at the host Li Mi who was pleading, nodded gently, and replied, "Yes." ”
"Can you tell us why?" The host Li Mi asked.
Because I happened to meet Chef Lubson who came to Huaxia, he said in front of me, "Huaxia cuisine can't even compare to the toes of French cuisine." When he said the last sentence, the gentleness on Yang Cao's face was gone, replaced by calm anger.
"Damn! How dare he say that! ”
"Humph! A Lin chef dares to be so arrogant! ”
……
The chefs of the Chinese cuisine world let out angry roars.
"Is Chef Lubpine stupid?"
"How dare you be so presumptuous on someone else's territory?"
"Hehe, it seems that I thought I was a Lin chef, and I floated."
……
Others were dismissive, and even the people of France expressed their displeasure with Georges Lubçon.
You must know that there is currently a dragon chef in France, and there are three of them in Huaxia Ming, not to mention the old-timers who have retired.
If he really wins, the French cuisine world will have to prepare for the crazy revenge of the Chinese cuisine world.
"Silence!"
The old timer Edward Lau, who was sitting in the judges' seat, spoke, and the voice full of majesty spread like a wave, and soon, the noisy freight yard instantly quieted down.
"Xiao Cao, defeat him." Edward Lau's old-timers said again.
"I will, Grandpa Liu." Yang Cao nodded confidently.
At this point, there was no sound at the scene, but I already had my own judgment in my heart about the victory or defeat of this halberd.
They don't think that Edward Lau's predecessors will cheat because of this, and it is impossible for this situation to be placed there.
So they will only think that Edward Lau's old-timers are full of confidence in Yang Cao.
"Damn, do you look down on me like that? When I defeat this yellow-haired boy, see what your expression will be! George Lubson's face turned grim at this time.
"Then, let's not waste any more time, this time there is no theme restriction on the halberd, and both sides are free to play! It's an hour! Halberd begins! ”
With the declaration of the host Li Mi, Yang Cao and George Lubson began their own cooking.
……
An hour later, Yang Cao packed up his kitchenware, bowed to the three judges, and then bowed to the guests at the scene, calmly holding the kitchenware and leaving the scene under everyone's attention.
At this time, George Lubson knelt there in despair, feeling that the whole person had lost the vitality of life, and muttered "impossible" in his mouth.
The score on the judges' bench showed "3:0".
As promised, Yang Cao completely defeated the French chef Georges Lubson.
……
Outside the venue, Yang Cao looked at a text message he had just received on his mobile phone, and said to himself: "Grandpa told me to go back, I should have asked me to wipe my father's ass again." ”
