Fang Ze saw Lin Xiaoxin getting excited and hugged her quickly. "Calm down, calm down, you may say that British food is unpalatable, but you are not allowed to say that hot pot looks like shoe leather."
"Hmph." After Lin Xiaoxin was reported to Fang Ze, her anger finally subsided a little, but her nose was still crooked with anger, and she said bitterly, "He even knows the smell of shoe leather. This person has enough life experience. abundant."
"Don't worry about whether they have a lot of experience or not. You will know later whether they are really capable. If the food they cook is really better than hot pot, there is nothing to say."
Although the British chef's words were a bit extreme, they did not cause much reaction from others. None of the chefs who came here specialize in hot pot, so there was no need to argue with this foreigner.
Secondly, who knew that what this foreigner said was not taught by the organizer, but was just to attract attention. When the video is shot, this paragraph will be released first to attract attention and attract a lot of hatred.
Then when the attention on the Internet reached its peak, he stood up and announced that these were the words the contestant said before tasting Chinese food, and then released the apology video of the foreign chef who admitted that he was a frog in the well.
In this way, attention and fame will be gained, wouldn't it be a blessing
After all, these days, routines are always popular, and a good routine is the same as a cute girl who can act like a baby. Even if you know that there is probably a big eagle hidden under her, and you can't tell who will fuck whom in bed, but you still can't help it. To be deceived by her.
After introducing themselves, all the chefs went to their respective places and started cooking.
At this time, players like Fang Ze and others who had been promoted from the first floor and had no inside information or connections were at a disadvantage.
As soon as the other contestants entered the venue, staff helped bring in all the ingredients they needed to start cooking. Only Fang Ze and the others were still waiting for the ingredients.
Before going on stage, Fang Ze handed the list of ingredients needed to the staff member he met before. Although the name of Rainbow Porridge was very fancy, the ingredients needed were all simple ingredients. Fang Ze originally thought that the staff member was Ingredients can be found within minutes.
But a full twenty minutes passed, and there was still no one from Fang Ze's side delivering anything. Even the cameraman on the side felt something was wrong and handed over the camera. The host at the scene also came over and asked what was going on.
"Brother Fang, why don't I go over and ask." Mimi saw the camera turned here and wanted to show her face, so she ran over to find something to do.
"Go." Fang Ze didn't know what happened. Logically speaking, such a big mistake should not happen in such a big game.
Mimi got Fang Ze's approval, so she hurried to the backstage to ask the staff why their ingredients hadn't been delivered yet.
After another ten minutes, the staff member who met Fang Ze and the others came over and waved to Fang Ze, motioning for Fang Ze to come over.
"What's wrong?" Fang Ze walked over and asked, "The list I gave you just now contains some ordinary ingredients. It can't be in the warehouse, right?"
"It's not that there's nothing, there's something wrong." The staff pulled Fang Ze over and whispered, "I asked someone to pick up the ingredients from the warehouse for you, but the warehouse manager said that there was something wrong with a batch of the ingredients that came in this time. , the pesticides exceeded the standard. But they didn’t know which batch they were from, so in order to prevent someone from getting upset, they locked the warehouse directly and stopped taking anything out.”
The reason given by the staff sounded a bit outrageous and funny to Fang Ze. He asked, "Then why are the other contestants' ingredients okay? They can use them, but we are not allowed to use them?"
"Theirs were all prepared in advance, so it's okay." The staff member replied vaguely.
Even if Fang Ze didn't turn on Athena's vision, he knew that this matter was definitely not as simple as he said. This staff member must be hiding something.
Fang Ze thought about it carefully, and although there was no evidence, he still placed the suspicion on Chef Song.
So Fang Ze asked bluntly, "Is it Chef Song's fault?"
"What's wrong with you?" As soon as the staff member spoke the words, he immediately felt something was inappropriate. He held back the rest of his words and made a gesture to Fang Ze to stop talking.
"It's really him." Fang Ze understood the reason now.
It seems that Chef Song is actually destined to win this cooking competition. After all, among so many chefs, he is the only one who relies on fame to make a living.
And with his reputation, he could actually compete directly from the third floor, but he joined the chefs on the second floor. The reason was naturally not to lower his status, but to create a topic.
The topic of the sixth floor, which has been winning continuously from the second floor, is nothing more than the organizer's marketing method. As a result, the famous Chef Song was only qualified to compete from the second floor.
Then Chef Song relied on his talent to advance to first place all the way and finally won the championship.
This kind of story with a novel plot can definitely be told for a lifetime. Whenever it is on a variety show, tell it about it to attract attention, gain popularity, deceive fans, and create a counterattack character.
What a perfect plan, it sounds like someone who exposed the truth in the show, singled out giant companies, and established himself as an upright, honest and honest person. He claims to have never done marketing, but his fame depends entirely on marketing, and he likes to carry suitcases. Are the celebrities quite similar
Although the program team has been criticized, but with attention and traffic, people don't care whether they have been slandered or not. Which show doesn't have shady scenes, what kind of singer, what a good voice, etc. famous variety shows, there are still people who complain that the winner is pre-determined, but there are still people who watch it, the more they criticize, the more popular it is. It's a show that no one criticizes. It's already cool.
It seems that Chef Song also knows his way well, so he starts the competition from the second floor. Fang Ze had previously wondered how a famous chef who often appeared on TV could appear on the second floor, but now he has solved the case.
Moreover, Fang Ze was unlucky enough to block Chef Song's way. Because Chef Song has eaten the dishes made by Fang Ze and others, he understands that Fang Ze's team is really capable, and the judges are not blind. If they have the same strength, they may consider the bonus of fame and be biased. .
But the level of Liu Pleiax and Fang Ze can obviously crush Chef Song without any pressure, so Chef Song simply resorted to extravagant tactics and found someone to cut off the ingredients for you. No matter how good the chef is, it is impossible to fire him. Plate the air for the judges to eat.
"I'm sorry, I'm really sorry." This staff member seemed not to be involved, but he had to abide by the above rules, so he could only apologize now.
"Besides the warehouse, where else can we get ingredients?" Fang Ze thought for a while, but was still not ready to give up. After all, it was a bit frustrating to be kicked off the stage directly.
I would rather make a grand exit than let others drive me down.
"There are also leftovers from other people's previous competitions." The staff thought for a while and said, "However, most of these ingredients are incomplete. Unless it is a random stew, it will be difficult to assemble the amount of a dish."
"Wait a moment." Fang Ze asked the staff member to wait a moment, and then waved to call Liu Pleiaxing who was standing over there.
"Brother Fang, what's wrong?" Liu Pleiades came over and asked.
Fang Ze told Liu Pleiax what happened, and then the two of them followed the staff member to where the previously used ingredients were stored.
After the two arrived, they found that it was just as the staff said. Basically, most of the available ingredients were only in small quantities. It was impossible to support a dish, make hot pot or stew alone. Not bad.
"Look, that's all." The staff member himself felt very embarrassed, and he whispered, "How about I go and report to the higher-ups again that you won't be competing today and will continue the competition tomorrow?"
"There are a lot of bean sprouts here." Liu Pleiades ignored the staff's words and walked over to pick up some bean sprouts.
"There are quite a lot. In addition to bean sprouts, there are also a lot of potatoes." Fang Ze took a look and said, "These two are basic ingredients that consume a lot of money, so generally chefs will prepare more, and the accumulation is still considerable. of."
"These two are enough." Liu Pleiades suddenly thought of something, turned to Fang Ze and said, "Brother Fang, the bean sprouts and potatoes combined are enough for us to make a dish that can win all the contestants. .”
Bean sprouts and potatoes combined into a dish? !
The staff listening on the side were stunned.
Are you kidding me, how do you combine bean sprouts and potatoes to make a dish, fried potatoes with bean sprouts
Bean sprouts and potatoes are really common and often eaten by everyone. If it's a home-cooked meal, any one of them can be a complete dish on its own.
But if you want to make delicious food that gets high marks from the judges, just bean sprouts and potatoes are not enough.
But what the staff didn't expect was that Liu Pleiades' seemingly outrageous decision would be supported by Fang Ze. The two of them got to work as they were told, and quickly picked out the bean sprouts and potatoes from the ingredients, then put them into a small box and took them all back.
'Go crazy, these two. The staff looked at Fang Ze and Liu Pleiaxing happily carrying a basket of potatoes and bean sprouts away with bewildered expressions. They couldn't figure out what they planned to cook with potatoes and bean sprouts.
Not only were the staff members different, but when Fang Ze and Liu Pleiades returned, Mimi and Lin Xiaoxin didn't figure it out either.
"Can these two ingredients really make food?" Lin Xiaoxin asked, looking at the potatoes and bean sprouts in the frame.
"Yes, why not." Fang Ze put down the vegetable basket and said to Lin Xiaoxin, "Have you never eaten bean sprouts? They are healthy and delicious. Not to mention potatoes, which can be used to make ten thousand kinds of dishes. thing."
