Chef system

After the end of the first half of the first round, there was a two-hour intermission. After everyone had lunch, the squad leader's match soon started.

Yang Chen always focused on Xue Hua and Xiao Junliang.

The former moves the knife like flying, with an extremely fast speed, and the light of the knife casts a phantom on the fingertips, showing a super high control over the kitchen utensils; while the latter pauses for a moment every time he cuts the knife, and is gentle and slow.

The two have their own characteristics in the processing of ingredients, and there will be no distinction between them for a while.However, because it is only a simple processing of ingredients, Xue Hua is even better in terms of speed.However, Yang Chen's eyes were sharp, and he found that Xiao Junliang had an advantage in handling the subtleties of the ingredients.

"Hey, Master Yang, why are you always staring at that chef? Is there anything unusual?" Wu Bin asked curiously, then turned the binoculars and aimed at Xiao Junliang, but after looking for a while, he found that he was not There is nothing particularly worthy of attention, but it seems a bit mediocre.

Although Wu Bin is good at cooking, his physical fitness is not as sharp as Yang Chen's, and his glasses seem to be somewhat distorted, so he can't notice subtle changes at all.

Xiao Junliang looks ordinary on the surface, but if you look closely, you will find that the size, shape, and thickness of each slice he cuts are the same; while other chefs look exactly the same, but if you look closely, they are always You will see the difference in subtleties.

With this alone, Yang Chen can be sure that Xiao Jundao's cooking skills are definitely not simple, and the information Gao Yuanzhong said is very likely to be true.

Yang Chen smiled, and explained: "Wu Bin, take a closer look, Xiao Junliang's knife skills are not as simple as they appear on the surface. It's not that he can handle the knife like flying, and that he is good at knife skills."

"Really?" Wu Bin looked carefully again, shook his head helplessly, and said, "I really don't see any difference."

After finishing speaking, he didn't waste time on Xiao Junliang, but turned to look at Xue Hua. After all, the latter is the most popular candidate to win this championship. Even if he can't beat him, he can learn from him. A half-way move is also good.

On the contrary, after Qi Chuanyi heard what the two said, he couldn't help but look at Xiao Junliang a few more times, and then his expression suddenly became serious, and he said in a deep voice: "This Xiao Junliang is really amazing."

Yang Chen looked at Qi Chuanyi with a bit of strangeness in his eyes. The latter is just an ordinary chef, but he doesn't have the same keen vision as him. It is quite surprising that he can see through Xiao Junliang's fiction.

Qi Chuanyi noticed Yang Chen's gaze, and turned his head, "Master Yang is really astute, for a hidden top chef like Xiao Junliang, you can actually see his reality, it's amazing."

Hearing this, Yang Chen couldn't help but feel a little ashamed. He also made preparations in advance, so he paid more attention to Xiao Junliang. If he was really allowed to observe these players without knowing it, he might not be able to focus on Xiao Junliang. .

Qi Chuanyi, on the other hand, was able to distinguish Xiao Junliang's fiction from reality just by looking at it twice, which was even more surprising.

He couldn't help asking strangely: "Master Qi, how did you see Xiao Junliang's fiction?"

A shy smile appeared on Qi Chuanyi's face, and he said embarrassedly: "Actually, I don't have any special means, I just rely on my intuition, and I feel that the chef's movements are very beautiful."

"very beautiful?"

Yang Chen was taken aback, he didn't expect Qi Chuanyi to answer like this, he couldn't help asking curiously: "Master Qi, I don't know where you can tell that Xiao Junliang's movements are very beautiful?"

Qi Chuanyi glanced at Xiao Jundao again, and after a moment of contemplation, he suddenly asked: "Master Yang, I wonder if you have seen the piano master play the piano?"

Yang Chen didn't know why Qi Chuanyi asked such irrelevant questions, but he still answered honestly: "I saw it on TV occasionally."

"Then do you feel that Xiao Junliang's movements give people the same feeling as those top pianists?" Qi Chuanyi asked again.

Yang Chen glanced at Xiao Jundao again, although the latter's movements were extremely smooth, but no matter how he looked at it, he still couldn't appreciate Qi Chuanyi's feeling like watching a musician play the piano, so he shook his head helplessly, " I don't feel that way."

Qi Chuanyi said with a nonchalant smile, "Master Yang, this is just my personal opinion. Just listen to it and don't take it to heart. Everyone has a different understanding of cooking. In my opinion, cooking and music are There is no difference, the so-called cooking is just playing a beautiful piece of music. For others, cooking must mean something different, or just cooking."

Yang Chen thoughtfully, looked at Qi Chuanyi's mobile phone, he didn't pay attention to it just now, but now he discovered that the game the latter was playing was a very famous music game called 'Rhythm Master'.

"If I remember correctly, Qi Chuanyi was once a student of the Music Department of the People's University of Art. He dropped out of school for some reason and returned home. .1 Michelin three-star chef."

Yang Chen secretly thought, "Maybe it's this special experience of learning music that made him connect music and cooking."

"So in my opinion, when these people cook, they play different pieces of music." Qi Chuanyi continued, "For example, Xue Hua..."

He looked over there, squinted his eyes slightly, and pretended to be listening, "Xue Hua's culinary skills are like an impassioned and impassioned march, like a torrential rain, a strong wind passing through, grand and far-reaching."

"However, Xiao Junliang's is completely different. It is soothing and graceful, neither fast nor slow, and slowly soaks into the soul, making people feel better inexplicably."

"As for most of the other chefs, although the music produced is not bad, there are always some flaws, some are out of tune, some have pauses..."

Qi Chuanyi murmured, Yang Chen listened with a confused face, while Wu Bin and Guo Shihua couldn't understand at all, staring wide-eyed.

Guo Shihua couldn't help but said: "In my opinion, cooking is cooking, and has nothing to do with composing music. Isn't the purpose of cooking for people to eat?"

When the words were interrupted, Qi Chuanyi's face remained unchanged, and he said softly: "After all, everyone's understanding is different. Maybe this is your understanding, Master Guo, and there is no distinction between superior and inferior."

Guo Shihua's expression was a little embarrassed, and he said: "Master Qi, you are such a superb cook, there must be some truth in what you said. If there is a chance, I will definitely learn music, haha."

"You're stupid!" Wu Bin couldn't help saying, "Can't you understand Master Qi's words? Everyone's understanding is different, and it has nothing to do with learning music."

Guo Shihao retorted unhappily: "Do you think I'm a fool? Of course I understood what Master Qi said."

"Since you understand, what music do you want to learn?" Wu Bin rolled his eyes in disbelief.

Yang Chen listened to the two arguing, thinking about Qi Chuanyi's words, he felt a little interesting.

If you really want to compare cooking skills to something else, Yang Chen feels that cooking is more like stacking blocks, because the knowledge passed down by the God of Cooking, as long as you follow the above records and master it to a certain degree, you can completely use it in your mind. The dishes are restored.

The first round of the competition was really nothing to watch, although after the initial audition and qualifiers, these more than 200 top chefs in the country were selected.Perhaps in the eyes of ordinary people, these people's culinary skills are very good, but for a chef like Yang Chen who has almost stood at the top of the food pyramid, the culinary skills of these chefs can be judged by others. Once it shines, there are only the top ten in the championship approval rate.

On the contrary, the activities after the game made the audience very excited. The host immediately selected ten lucky audiences to come to the stage to taste the chef's food.These chefs come from all over the world, and they are all famous chefs from all over the world. It is rare to have a meal at ordinary times. This opportunity to taste the highest masterpieces of these chefs at this time has successfully aroused the enthusiasm of the audience.In the end, because the audience's request was too strong, a total of [-] lucky audiences were invited to the stage to barely stabilize the audience's emotions.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, the game ended, and Jiang Chengren was going to chat with some of his old friends and classmates.After this competition, He Shitao won the game, but he felt a strong sense of crisis in his heart, so he went back to the hotel to concentrate on honing his cooking skills for a few days.

Yang Chen was going to go back to practice his cooking skills like He Shitao, but was stopped by Mu Xixi on the way. After hearing that Yang Chen was going to hone his cooking skills, his eyes almost lit up.

"Yang Chen, don't you just want to sharpen your cooking skills? Let's go, let's go to Yunya's house to cook, and let the two of us taste it for you!" Mu Xixi took Yang Chen's hand and said cheekily.

"This is not good!" Yang Chen looked at Lin Yunya. Although the latter did not speak, he was obviously reluctant.

After all, this is also the reason. Yang Chen and Lin Yunya didn't know each other before. It's really unreasonable to go to someone else's house to cook after meeting. I really don't know what Mu Xixi is thinking.

"There's nothing wrong with it." Mu Xixi said broadly, "Yun Ya didn't even speak, so don't dawdle like a man."

Just as I was talking, I saw Shu Qiming walking over. Hearing the conversation between the two, he interrupted with a smile and said, "You two beauties, since Yang Chen doesn't want to go, how about going to my house to cook for you? Definitely stronger than Yang Chen."

"Who are you?" Mu Xixi gave Shu Qiming a white look, and said disdainfully.

Shu Qiming was startled, and then said proudly: "I'm Shu Qiming, the third-ranked Shu Qiming!"

"So it's you!" Mu Xixi glanced up and down at Shu Qiming, "Looking at you like this, I thought you were No. 1! Miss, I will only be with the person who is most qualified to win this competition." Eat. If it's you, then it's free!"

Hearing this, Shu Qiming's face turned blue and white, and said in a cold voice: "Beauty, what you said is against your will! If I remember correctly, Yang Chen's approval rating is 8th, don't you think he Are you more likely to win the championship than me?"

"Of course!" Mu Xixi said without hesitation, "Don't you really take this ranking seriously! The national food competition has been held for so many years, and there is this ranking almost every time. Several of them are No.1 on the approval rating list."

"The mouth is quite sharp!" Shu Qiming's voice was cold, he turned his head to look at Yang Chen, and said with disdain: "It seems that you have confidence in Yang Chen! I want to see how powerful Yang Chen is."

Mu Xixi replied: "No matter how powerful he is, I think he is at least stronger than you!"
