Chapter 388: Completely Lost (Second Update)
After Chen Wei returned to the hotel, he did not go to see Su Lanxin, nor did he go to find a few senior brothers, but locked himself in the room and never showed up.
The result of today's competition obviously made Chen Wei feel very unacceptable.
To say that before the competition, Chen Wei really didn't care about the result?
But after the actual competition, Chen Wei was more or less concerned about the result of the competition.
Especially when he lost two games in the end, and it was the evaluation of the kindergarten children who originally thought he would not lose, but he only got 20 votes, and he lost very completely.
Because in Chen Wei's view, he has spent a lot of effort on both the selection of materials and cooking.
And he specially designed it to be liked by many children, and used various tricks to attract children.
As it turned out, it did work out very well.
According to what Tan Xueli said before, many children really like those buffets very much, and parents are willing to let their children eat them.
Even Tan Xueli was worried that the buffet prepared would not be enough for kindergarten children and parents to eat?
But then the situation suddenly took a turn for the worse, and the children suddenly stopped eating the buffet, and all chose to eat Feng Yifan's parent-child rice bowl.
This really made Chen Wei not expect, but Chen Wei didn't take it seriously when he knew it at the time.
I think everyone may be tired of eating, so I want to try Feng Yifan's parent-child rice bowls.
But the result was that all the parent-child rice bowls prepared by Feng Yifan were eaten.
On the contrary, there was still a lot left in the buffet, and they had to be packed and brought back for processing.
The result of the final vote was also an overwhelming victory for Feng Yifan.
This result really made Chen Wei a little difficult to accept.
If the two were almost the same, even if they lost in the end, Chen Wei wouldn't feel anything, because he really didn't think about winning from the beginning.
And Chen Wei didn't really want to win, and he didn't want Su Lanxin to continue to struggle on Su Ji's old plaque.
But now it's not that the two are evenly matched, but that Feng Yifan won overwhelmingly.
Chen Wei really couldn't figure it out, why did those children not vote for themselves in the end, but voted for Feng Yifan?
Is it just because you eat too many high-end ingredients?
Did Feng Yifan take advantage of this and pair the rice with salted sour plums to make the children like to eat it more?
Chen Wei does not agree with these, these are just appearances in Chen Wei's view.
He really wanted to try Feng Yifan's plate of rice now to see what the problem was?
Thinking of this, Chen Wei seemed to have thought of another way, so he hurriedly called Tan Xueli.
"Shirley, are there any leftover buffets from noon?"
Tan Xueli was also a little unconvinced by this failed result, and didn't understand why Feng Yifan won overwhelmingly in the end?
In Tan Xueli's view, the chef has an overwhelming advantage in the selection of materials and cooking.
So Sherry Tan is also looking for questions.
I also happened to want to try the buffet they made, and I was a little excited to receive a call from the chef.
"Haven't dealt with it yet, in the back kitchen of the hotel. ”
When Chen Wei learned about it, he immediately said: "Okay, don't deal with it yet, I'll go down now, I want to see what the problem is, why did we lose so badly?"
Tan Xueli hurriedly agreed: "Okay, okay, chef, I'll wait for you downstairs." ”
Chen Wei immediately got up and went out. But the moment he opened the door, he saw his four junior disciples standing in the doorway.
Seeing Chen Wei go out, the four of them were stunned for a moment, and then almost said in unison: "Senior brother, I didn't vote for Feng Yifan." ”
After the four of them said this in unison, they were stunned for a moment, and then looked at each other in disbelief.
When Chen Wei heard the words of the four people, he also said helplessly: "I know, it wasn't you who voted for Feng Yifan, the reason why it was 4 to 4 was because Su Lanxin voted for Feng Yifan." ”
The elder brother's words confused the senior brothers.
No one thought that Su Lanxin would vote for Feng Yifan.
The ninth grandson Mingxing couldn't help but ask: "But, doesn't she want to get the old plaque the most? If she wants to get the old plaque, then why would she let you lose?"
The sixth Lu Yongjun followed and said: "Could it be that all this is not a trick directed and acted by Su Lanxin?"
Fifth Dai Feng couldn't accept it: "Our senior brother, have you been tricked by her all these years?"
In the end, the second Ma Wenjing was more direct: "No, I'm going to find her, I must ask Su Lanxin well, why did she do this? Could it be that we left the master with her at the beginning, and ended up like this, was she playing like this?"
Chen Wei stretched out his hand and grabbed the second Ma Wenjing: "No need to ask." ”
The juniors and disciples all looked at Chen Wei, these juniors and disciples who had spent most of their lives with a trace of guilt really couldn't understand why Su Lanxin voted for Feng Yifan in the end?
Chen Wei looked at his junior disciples, hesitated for a moment and asked, "Let me ask you, do you really think that my dessert is better than Feng Yifan's, so you will vote for me?"
This question stopped all the four juniors.
Chen Wei saw that the four people hesitated at the same time, and already knew what the answer was?
He was a little disappointed: "I really didn't expect that I had been cooking for half my life, and in the end, I still needed my juniors and disciples to use this way to win a junior." ”
Listening to Chen Wei's words, the juniors and disciples also felt helpless.
And at this moment, the senior brothers suddenly found that it seemed that their senior brother was old all of a sudden.
It was a kind of change brought about by the original spirit and spirit after it was suddenly discharged.
After a long time, it was the ninth grandson Mingxing who opened his mouth and said: "Senior brother, look at it, the master used to say that the back wave pushes the front wave, and there will always be talented newcomers in the kitchen shop." ”
Chen Wei looked at Sun Mingxing and asked, "So, where do you think Feng Yifan's dessert won?"
Sun Mingxing hesitated for a moment, but still said directly: "His fake Lantern Festival looks fake, but in fact, the interior is full of a different kind of Qiankun, and it is really a wonderful dish." ”
Lu Yongjun said very directly: "Senior brother, if I tell you that when I bite the Lantern Festival open and look at the cut noodles, what I see is a twisted flow heart, do you think you can still win Feng Yifan?"
Chen Wei was stunned for a moment, and immediately recalled Feng Yifan's cooking process in his heart.
Finally, a scene came to his mind.
At that time, when Feng Yifan poured the candied radish shell into the filling, the tool used seemed to be a piping bag, but the piping bag seemed to be rotating to fill the filling inside.
Chen Wei suddenly thought that Feng Yifan should have beaten the two kinds of fillings into puree and put them in two piping bags.
Then, with a piping opening, the filling is poured into it in a rotating motion.
Therefore, after cooking, the filling is in a semi-flowing state, so it appears to be swirling and mixing out.
Chen Wei thought of this, and couldn't help but sigh: "Sure enough, young people are more creative." ”
Seeing this, Lao Jiusun Mingxing said: "Senior brother, in fact, he may just be a trick, and he may not be better than you when he really cooks." ”
Chen Wei smiled bitterly and said, "What about the kindergarten lunch? So many children choose him, is it really that he is another trick? Do you really think that cooking can be tricky to win?"
The four junior disciples were stunned for a moment, and they looked at each other one by one, not knowing what to say?
Chen Wei continued: "No matter how good the food is, the ultimate key is whether it is delicious or not, the taste is difficult to be deceived, and everyone thinks it is delicious, it is really delicious." ”
After listening to the words of the senior brother, the four junior brothers also calmed down.
Ma Wenjing hesitated for a moment, but still asked in a low voice: "But, why did Su Lanxin vote for Feng Yifan? Is it just because he makes it delicious?"
In the eyes of Ma Wenjing and the four of them, Su Lanxin should not want Feng Yifan to win no matter what.
So even if Feng Yifan's cooking is really delicious, Su Lanxin shouldn't vote for Feng Yifan.
But the current situation is that Ma Wenjing and his four senior brothers all voted for the senior brother desperately.
On the contrary, Su Lanxin, the person who wanted to win the most, did not vote for Chen Wei.
The brothers and sisters still don't understand, why?
Chen Wei probably guessed something in his heart, but Chen Wei didn't want to say it in front of his juniors and disciples, or he felt that he didn't have to explain it to his juniors.
At this moment, Tan Xueli's phone called.
"Chef, come down, there is indeed a problem with the dishes in our buffet. ”
Chen Wei hung up the phone and said to his juniors: "Okay, if you lose, you lose, but in fact, losing is a kind of relief, isn't it? ”
Without waiting for the juniors and disciples to speak, Chen Wei continued: "Okay, you all want to go back and rest first, don't mention this matter again, find a time later, let's go to Jinrong and go to worship the master." ”
When it came to worshipping the master, the four senior brothers were all stunned, and then they all nodded obediently in agreement.
Seeing his brother go back, Chen Wei also hurriedly took the elevator and rushed directly to the back kitchen of the hotel.
Tan Xueli had already prepared the things, and when Chen Wei came, she directly handed the prepared things to Chen Wei.
Before he put the fish fillet in his mouth, Chen Wei could already smell the smell on the fish fillet.
Then, I put it in my mouth and tasted it, and I spit it out quickly when I couldn't swallow it.
Chen Wei was a little helpless: "Sure enough, something went wrong, no wonder we lost so badly in the end, it was because the sauce was used incorrectly, and when seasoning, we ignored that children eat slowly." ”
The problem with Chen Wei's buffet is very simple, that is, when the ingredients are cooled, it will naturally stop being so delicious.
And Chen Wei ignored one point at the time, thinking that he would be eaten quickly after he went up.
But Chen Wei ignored that children will always eat slowly.
Especially in an environment like kindergarten, children's meal time will be stretched a lot, which leads to a lot of food that should be eaten fresh, because the taste changes after a long time.
Chen Wei smiled helplessly: "Sure enough, we ignored too many things, and we only thought about winning." ”
Tan Xueli said with a frustrated face: "It's me, it's me who ignored this detail and didn't make adjustments in time, everything is my fault, I really still lack too much." ”
Hearing Tan Xueli's self-blame, Chen Wei shook his head and said: "If you want to say that there is a mistake, then all the fault is on me, because I didn't think about winning from the beginning, so I ignored a lot of cooking processes, and as a result, I was indeed too conceited." ”
Looking back on the cooking process in the kindergarten, Chen Wei had to admit that Feng Yifan was indeed very serious and took into account a lot of details.
The point is that he's very confident, he's confident that he's going to win, that's why he's so at ease.
In such a relaxed and relaxed mentality, Feng Yifan was able to play at a normal level.
Thinking of this, Chen Wei sighed helplessly: "I must admit that Feng Yifan is indeed stronger than me, and I am already old, and he has just passed the age of establishment." ”
When Tan Xueli heard this, she raised her head and looked at Chen Wei with some surprise.
Just like Chen Wei's four junior disciples upstairs, Tan Xueli also suddenly saw that Chen Wei seemed to be getting old.
It's really like something happened in an instant, Chen Wei lost his former brilliance and gradually turned into a very old man.
Shirley Tan was taken aback.
Chen Wei smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'm just old." ”
With that, Chen Wei turned around and walked outside the back kitchen.
Walking out of the back kitchen and coming to the lobby of the hotel, Chen Wei was even in a trance.
Scenes of the past emerge in front of my eyes.
In the end, these pictures were fixed in the first time he went to Suji to apprentice, and he did not hesitate to kneel and kowtow to his master in order to apprentice.
Later, in Su Ji's kitchen, he did learn a lot of master's skills.
As soon as the picture turned, Chen Wei saw the slim young girl again in a trance.
It was the master's daughter, and when Chen Wei saw it for the first time, he was already moved, and he made up his mind to take care of each other with his life.
The picture changed one by one, and finally came to a foreign country, after the two people quarreled.
Chen Wei was dragged out to drink, but he drank too much and slept in a hotel outside.
But when I got up early in the morning, I saw a strange foreign woman lying next to me. In a panic, Chen Wei hurriedly dressed and fled from the hotel room.
But Chen Wei never thought that in the end, that incident was discovered by Su Lanxin.
Su Lanxin didn't cry or make trouble, she just asked the lawyer to send him a divorce agreement.
Chen Wei felt guilty, so he signed and divorced Su Lanxin.
After the divorce, for a long time, Chen Wei lived like a muddy fool, wandering around those chaotic places abroad every day.
Chen Wei kept using alcohol and women to anesthetize himself, but the more he was like that, the more difficult it was to erase the slim figure in his heart.
He once promised the little sister that he would definitely help her get back Su Ji's old plaque.
But now, he ended up losing completely.
After a series of scurrying lights, Chen Wei also woke up and found that he had unconsciously walked to the door of the hotel. After hesitating for a moment, Chen Wei called a car and left the hotel.
