After arriving in Boling, Li Yi and his entourage repaired before taking a bus and arriving in Stuttgart, the host city of the Olympiad.

It took two days for Li Yi and his entourage to arrive at their destination.

But although the journey was tiring, after arriving at the place, they still went to the competition site as soon as they put down their luggage, intending to step on the spot in advance.

The competition was held at the local exhibition center in Stuttgart, a large building covering an area of 100,000 square meters.

When Li Yi and his entourage arrived, there were already teams from several countries visiting the venue.

There is only one day left before the opening ceremony of the competition, but construction is still going on in the stadium.

However, the site construction party has already set up and is installing the electronic equipment on site.

Looking at the construction team that was slow and did not hurry to install the equipment, Xie Yongcan in the team couldn't help but sigh: "The opening ceremony will be held tomorrow, and this place has not been done yet, and I am not afraid of delays." ”

He is the chef of the Neijiang office in Beijing, and he is also the player in charge of the seasoning of cold dishes in the team.

In the second round of assessment, his seasoning results were the best and were recognized by Li Yi.

Hearing his emotion, Wu Honggui joked: "If we had used our construction team and the money was in place, it would have been done a long time ago." ”

He is the chef of the Chaozhou Beijing Office, and he can make good soup, so he was also selected for the team.

Li Yi glanced at the construction team, shook his head and said, "As long as the stove can be used, nothing else matters." ”

The multi-purpose hall is mainly responsible for the opening ceremony, and the purpose of Li Yi's trip is to check the equipment of the competition venue and prepare for the subsequent competition.

A total of 32 national teams, 19 youth teams, and 52 regional teams participated in this competition.

In order to provide a working space for these teams, the organizers converted the two adjacent exhibition halls into large kitchens, in which each team was arranged to operate the area.

However, when they found the operation area of the Huaxia team, the chefs behind Li Yi immediately complained, and some people burst into foul language.

The location of the Huaxia team, although in the first row, is the outermost position, far from the food area, but close to the public pool.

"That's too small, isn't it?"

The chefs present are all professionals, and you can find a bunch of problems at a glance.

"It's too far from the food section, isn't it? Just fetching things takes a long run. ”

"It's close to the passage, and if you serve food, you'll definitely be crowded with the rest of the team, and it's not going to be easy."

"That public pool is so close, if dirty water spills over, won't it pollute all the dishes?"

"The lighting is not good, you can't cut your hands when you cut the meat?"

Not only did the chef behind him complain, but Li Yi was also a little unhappy when he saw the location of this operation area.

So, he called a translator, contacted the organizer's docking staff, and raised his dissatisfaction with the operation area.

The organizer's docking personnel were in the venue, and after learning about the situation, they rushed to the scene.

They brought information indicating that the order of location was by the first letter of the name of the country.

The initials of Huaxia are C, so the first of all the countries with the initials C happens to be in this position.

The organizers said that if the Chinese side has an opinion on the position, it can discuss with other national teams to change the position.

After learning the organizer's reply, the chefs present all looked at each other and had no idea.

It's easy to find another country to change, but who wants to change places?

The position they don't like, others definitely don't look down on?

If the organizers are forcibly asked to be replaced, they may leave a bullying handle and affect the country's image.

So, after hesitating, they whispered to Li Yi: "Captain Li, don't forget it!" We're going to be able to use it too. ”

However, Li Yi didn't plan to leave it at that.

He has been a human spirit for hundreds of years, so he naturally heard that the organizers were shirking their responsibilities and wanted to transfer the contradictions to the participating teams.

Therefore, Li Yi immediately asked the interpreter to tell them that this was a problem with the unreasonable design of the operation area, and there were health and safety hazards, and it must be rectified.

If the organizer does not rectify the situation, he will disclose it to the media and report it to the government.

Seeing that Li Yi was serious, the organizers did not dare to shirk anymore, and immediately said that they would find a way to solve it.

After some communication, the organizers hired a construction team to move the location of the public pool five meters outward, widen the width of the passage, and add lighting equipment.

In this way, although the location is still the same as before, it can be regarded as solving most of the problems in disguise.

The only trouble left is the problem of being far away from the food area.

However, this is not a problem for the Huaxia team, all the locations on the west side are relatively far away from the food area.

If the ingredient area is placed in the middle of all the handling areas, there will be no problem.

But now it's too late to change the position, so I can only overcome it artificially and run a few more times.

After staring at the construction team to fix the problematic places, Li Yi took people to the hotel where they were resting, brought all the kitchen utensils, cleaned them with water in the operation area, and then tried the fire.

Several chefs scrambled eggs with tomatoes bought from the supermarket and tomatoes on the stove, and Li Yi asked the workers of the construction team to taste them.

After all, after the rectification was proposed, they were the ones who were busy, and it could be regarded as causing them some trouble.

The workers of the construction team were polite, and clumsily sandwiched the scrambled eggs with tomatoes with the disposable chopsticks they brought, and tasted two bites.

When the eggs were eaten, their eyes all lit up, and some even took out the leftover bread from noon, dipped it in vegetable soup, and nodded again and again.

Eventually, they ate all the dishes, and even wiped the soup on their plates with bread, and it didn't look like they needed to be washed.

After eating, they shook hands with the chefs and said something with a smile.

The interpreter explained that they were complimenting the egg for being so delicious that it was the best scrambled egg they had ever tasted.

They also said that in this competition, the Chinese team will definitely be able to get good results.

After some praise, the chefs present were in a good mood, and most of the fatigue along the way dissipated.

On the way back to the hotel, the chefs still quipped: "The Chinese people are so pitiful, they haven't even eaten scrambled eggs with tomatoes." ”

"The national cuisine is average, either elbows or sausages, and then sauerkraut, any Northeast chef can walk sideways in the country."

Seeing that they were a little carried away, Li Yi reminded: "Each region has its own eating habits, and we must respect foreign cultures and not be too arrogant." ”

When the chefs heard this, they nodded yes.

Bu Haixian of the youth team is a joker, and asked: "What do you say about the Eagle National Cuisine?" ”

“……”

Li Yi glanced at him helplessly, and just wanted to speak, but the translator said faintly: "There are always exceptions to everything." ”

Her undergraduate degree was in Eagle Country, everyone knows it.

Hearing her complaining tone, everyone couldn't help but laugh.

For a while, the atmosphere in the carriage was very joyful.

After laughing, Li Yi opened his mouth to cheer everyone up: "We haven't participated in this competition for almost 20 years, but since we are here this time, we can't come in vain." ”

"A must!"

The chefs laughed and agreed: "I'm here for the gold medal!" ”

Seeing that everyone was full of confidence, Li Yi also smiled: "Then don't talk about superfluous, how much ability you have, how much ability you have, how many gold medals can you take."

This time, let's teach these foreigners a good lesson! Let them know what fine chaff is! ”
