"The God of Cookery" is a typical New Year's film. It is also a film written, directed and acted by Stephen Chow himself. The whole story is a dramatic process of "gain and loss, loss and recovery". It can be said that it is a very deep memory in Le Yuan's mind. A movie, and a rare movie related to chefs.
The whole story took place in Hong Kong in 1996. Le Yuan learned from the mission that the current protagonist Stephen Chow had not yet been driven off the throne of the God of Cookery, but it was obvious that Tang Niu had hooked up with the boss of "Big Happy" and worked for Stephen Chow. The game set by Stephen Zhou has been set up, just waiting for Stephen Zhou to jump on it.
Returning to the trial world, Le Yuan first checked his status. He only saw himself in a suit and leather shoes. At the same time, there was a small leather bag beside him. When he opened it, he found an ID card with his own face and a Hong Kong entry visa inside. Of course there is no more or no less 3,000 Hong Kong dollars.
Picking up his ID card, Le Yuan's mind came to the identity arranged by the system in the world of "God of Cookery". He was a famous chef from mainland China who wanted to start a career with his cooking skills in the bustling Hong Kong. Now It was the third day that his "predecessor" came to Hong Kong to attend the opening ceremony of the 50th branch of Tang Dynasty Enterprise in Hong Kong's most famous food street, and at the same time experience the style of the Hong Kong God of Food.
Looking at his legal identity, Le Yuan breathed a sigh of relief. After all, it was already 1996, and an unidentified gangster would be deported back to the mainland. Besides, legal identity was also required in the mainland. If it weren't for the help of the system, he could It's going to take a lot of effort.
Attend the opening ceremony of Tang Dynasty's branch? Le Yuan recalled the content of the plot. This Tang Dynasty is the company led by the protagonist Stephen Zhou, and the fiftieth branch is also the beginning of a turning point in his fate. It can be said that now is an extremely important scene in the plot.
Thinking of the sound of firecrackers before, Le Yuan hurriedly walked out of the alley, only to see a group of people on the opposite side of the street gathered around in a lively manner. At the same time, a dozen reporters with cameras and cameras were looking at a man wearing a golden chef's uniform. He kept filming, and he was the protagonist of this world—Stephen Zhou.
He was seen tilting his head and whispering orders to the men in black suits beside him. Le Yuan used his hearing to the limit and was able to hear what he said clearly across the street.
I saw him saying in a sharp tone: "The table should be as small as possible, the chairs should be as crowded as possible, and the guests should not be so comfortable. They will leave after eating; the straw should be as thick as possible, and the ice cubes should be as thick as possible." As big as you want, he will buy a second drink after finishing the soda. Are you new here? Do you want me to teach you this?"
Stephen Zhou was arrogantly preaching to his men in black suits. He looked like Zhou Papi, who only wanted to squeeze out every ounce of profit from his customers, while his men nodded like chickens pecking at rice. , it seems that he is used to being said like this, and he doesn’t have the courage to refute at all.
"Don't just stand there, you don't know how to adapt, you idiot!" After all the requests were made, Stephen Zhou didn't forget to curse. It wasn't until he was reminded by the waitress on the side that he needed to cut, that he stopped scolding him and picked up the scissors from the tray in the waitress's hand with a smile.
Stephen Zhou was in the middle, with the Happy Boss on one side and a foreigner on the other. Stephen Zhou smiled happily and said: "Are you ready? Are you ready?"
With the sound of scissors "clicking", the ribbon was cut. Stephen Zhou greeted the people around him with a proud look on his face. The people next to him were shouting and cheering. The flash of the camera kept flashing. At this moment, for Stephen Zhou It can be said to be the most satisfying time.
"Thank you, thank you, let's all eat together!" After the opening ribbon-cutting was completed, Stephen Zhou waved his hand to greet the spectators, reporters and customers gathered in front of the store to enter the store. Then he pulled the happy boss into the store with a smile.
Seeing Stephen Zhou, who had one foot in the trap, happily chatting so affectionately with the pit digger, Le Yuan couldn't help but sigh in the distance: "Meeting unkind people, knowing people poorly. As a chef, you lose everything." A chef should have the passion for cooking, perseverance in continuous research and sincerity to customers; and as a business owner, you make enemies everywhere but are not wary of your biggest enemy, and make things difficult for your own people. It can be said that It’s a betrayal and separation, it’s really a failure…”
Although he knew that today's opening ceremony would become a farce, Le Yuan still walked into this newly opened store, for no other reason than to see the cooking skills of BOSS Tang Niu who could finally be compared with the awakened Stephen Zhou. .
After walking in from the store, Le Yuan followed the flow of people to a counter and casually ordered a signature set meal—a side of chop suey noodles? After getting the noodles, Le Yuan first took a look at its appearance. It was quite normal, with no bright spots. Then he smelled it. The smell was complicated. The aroma of white noodles was mixed with an earthy smell - the radish had not been washed, and there was also a smell of pig - The pig intestines were not processed well, and there was still a faint smell of curry and fish balls.
In terms of color, shape, and aroma, this offal noodles can only be regarded as the craftsmanship of a roadside stall. Le Yuan then tasted the noodles, radish, fish balls, pig skin, pig blood, etc. one by one. After eating it once, Le Yuan did not continue to eat and put it on the table.
Bad, really bad. Stephen Zhou’s Tang Dynasty branch can be said to be a high-end restaurant in terms of decoration, but the most important thing about a restaurant is that the food is only at the level of a roadside stall. If you don’t have a god of food, With its name, I don’t expect anyone to come to this store.
Just as Le Yuan continued to observe, an activity where fans of the God of Cookery presented flowers to the God of Cookery suddenly started. As everyone moved out of the way, a woman with a beard dressed as a schoolgirl appeared. Yes, it was indeed a woman, Le Yuan You can feel the same aura about her as a woman.
This can be said to be a miracle in the history of biology. She is tall, but kind-hearted; she is wretched, but enthusiastic; she is just a passerby that no one cares about, but she makes you so unforgettable. Few people know who he is, but everyone knows her name - Ruhua. Is she the incarnation of evil spirits or a waste product of God? No one knows, but what is certain is that as long as she appears in front of everyone, every corner will be filled with an aura of obscenity, and even Stephen Zhou, the God of Cookery, can't help but lean back when he sees her.
The moment Stephen Zhou saw Ruhua, his shoulders stood up, his whole body tensed, his face solidified, cold sweat broke out from his forehead, and his eyes stared at Ruhua.
"God of Cookery—" Ruhua jumped up and down with the flowers and ran towards Stephen Zhou. She also lowered her left hand that was clasping her nostrils and stretched out her arms to give Stephen Zhou a big hug.
Everyone around looked like they were watching a joke, and someone was holding a camera to take pictures. Seeing that Ruhua was about to pounce on him, Stephen Zhou had an idea, pointed out the window with an exaggerated expression and shouted: "Hey —There’s a flying saucer!”
I don't know if the flying saucer is really so attractive. Everyone, including Ruhua, couldn't help but look out the window. Le Yuan turned his head involuntarily, but the Marrow Cleansing Meridian in his body flashed a wave, blocking a strange spirit. Fluctuating, Le Yuan, who was originally confused, immediately woke up. Le Yuan looked at the source of the fluctuation - Stephen Zhou in surprise.
Stephen Zhou saw that everyone was attracted by his words "There are flying saucers", and all the potential in his body was forced out. He gritted his teeth and performed a sideways flying kick, kicking Ruhua who was taller than him. After passing the reception desk, he was kicked unconscious and fell into the counter. The speed, power and accuracy of that kick made Le Yuan sigh and feel ashamed.
Everyone turned around, Stephen Zhou smiled and changed his gaze and said: "Everyone, in order to celebrate the opening of our fiftieth branch, we have launched a new set meal." As he said this, he wanted to introduce it to everyone, but Tang Niu raised his eyebrows. He came to Stephen Zhou with the statue of Kitchen God.
"The time has been chosen, now you can invite Mr. Zao into the kitchen." Tang Niu said with a smile on his face.
"Since there is still some time, I would like to introduce to you a new product launched by the Tang Dynasty -" Stephen peripheral said and handed the Zao Lord statue to his subordinates, while pointing to the big characters behind him and said, "Unforgettable First Love Gold and Silver Couple Package!"
Then he started to lie to everyone: "Confucius and Jesus once said, 'First love is infinitely beautiful,' so I chose this theme and added noble materials. Each set meal only sells for ninety-nine and ninety-nine cents. You can't even use a hundred yuan." ." As he spoke, Tang Niu brought out the offal noodles that Le Yuan had just eaten with a smile on his face.
The subsequent scam was even more demanding for money. He pointed to the stamp on the side and said: "A stamp comes with the meal. As long as you collect five stamps and add ninety-nine and ninety-nine cents, you can exchange it for an unforgettable bone." Pendant, this pendant was consecrated by me, the 'God of Cookery', so it has a wonderful effect on young men and women falling in love!"
Tang Niu on the side looked like a loyal paparazzi and responded to Stephen Zhou's remarks: "It will be even more powerful if used together with Indian sacred oil!"
"Hahaha -" Such a joke made everyone present laugh, while Le Yuan looked coldly at Tang Niu's poor performance and Stephen Zhou's philistine appearance and shook his head repeatedly.
As the boss of a large company, Stephen Zhou's greed for money is not terrible, but the problem now is that he has no bottom line in order to make money. He basically treats all customers as fools. The unforgettable bone necklace pendant has two golden hearts on it. Pierced by an arrow, this is just ordinary gold paint casually painted on a skeleton, which is basically a useless waste.
Although Stephen Zhou's deception is currently on the market, making everyone temporarily forget its true nature, as long as everyone calms down, they will soon discover the fact that they have been deceived. For a company, this is tantamount to digging its own grave.
Le Yuan watched Stephen Zhou's last performance as the God of Cookery with cold eyes.
