Chapter 139 "Knowing the Taste"
That night, Good Taste officially announced the list of the top 32 in the country.
At ten o'clock in the evening, dog-headed military advisor Wang Hao had a glass of iced Feizhai Happy Water in his left hand, a roasted chicken leg bought at the bottom of the dormitory building in his right hand, a mouthful of chicken leg and a mouthful of Coke, and stretched his head to look at the list announced on the official forum with Jiang Feng.
"Brother Feng, look, the first place in the Beiping division is indeed Zhang Guanghang, the first place in the Guangdong division is Ji Xue, he's only nineteen, my God, he's two years younger than me, and the first place in the Hangcheng division, Gu Li, This guy looks average and is probably cold." Wang Hao's words smelled like roasted chicken legs.
"What do you think about the relationship between parents? If you just look at looks, just give Zhang Guanghang first place." Jiang Feng continued to look down.
Wait, it seems that Zhang Guanghang should be number one in terms of strength...
Hey, there is always someone in this world who is more handsome than you, taller than you, has a better family background than you, and has better cooking skills than you.
When God closes a door for you, he will also seal the window.
"Hey, this Guli is the chef of Zhiweiju. Their food is quite delicious. I ate it when my parents and I traveled to Hangzhou last summer vacation." Wang Hao said.
"Look at this." Jiang Feng pointed at the computer screen, "Zhang Qian, 16 years old."
This girl is the last one in Jiang Feng's competition area, and she is the middle school student who screamed and rushed into her mother's arms this morning.
"She is from the No. 1 Middle School in the city. She is a top student. It was difficult to pass the exam. I originally bought her through connections, but she is the last one and there is nothing to pay attention to. Brother Feng, look at this. The third place in the Peking Division, Zhao Shan, The chef of Babaozhai, a famous restaurant!" Wang Hao exclaimed.
"There are so many famous restaurants in Beiping City. Look at this Sun Jikai, the fourth in Guangdong Province, the chef of Jubaolou. He is the FJ restaurant I told you about where Buddha Jumps over the Wall sells 1888 cups a cup." Jiang Feng said, "I Grandpa knows the former chef of that restaurant, whose surname is also Sun. This Sun Jikai is probably his descendant.”
"Hidden dragons and crouching tigers! Brother Feng, you are going to be popular!" Wang Hao couldn't help but sigh after hearing what Jiang Feng said, "Isn't this Tasty Cooking Competition just a private competition? Why are there so many professional chefs participating?"
"Go and see what the champion's reward is." Jiang Feng said.
Wang Hao clicked on another official post, but after reading it for a long time, he didn't see what was going on: "One hundred thousand yuan bonus and "Zhiwei" magazine cover promotion, the top 32 will be broadcast live in the form of a variety show, nothing special... Right? ”
""Zhiwei" was founded by Xu Cheng." Jiang Feng said, taking out his mobile phone and showing Wang Hao the encyclopedia information of "Zhiwei".
At first, Jiang Feng thought "Zhiwei" was just an ordinary food review magazine. Later, it was Wu Minqi who gave him some popular science and he realized how high this magazine's status in the world's food circle really was.
Xu Cheng can also be considered a celebrity. He is a Singaporean Chinese. His father has been in the top five of the Forbes Asia rankings. He is a well-deserved rich man who was born with a silver spoon in his mouth. He loves to eat and knows how to eat. He has traveled around the world and published several books on food reviews. From star-rated restaurants to streets and alleys, he will eat whatever he likes. He is well-known in the gourmet world. Foodies from all over the world will flock to the restaurants he recommends and the dishes he recommends.
Xu Cheng is now in his fifties, and "Zhiwei" magazine has been around for nearly ten years. From the first issue in January to the current issue once a year, Xu Cheng's tastes are becoming more and more sophisticated, and his tastes are becoming more and more sophisticated. He is strict. Last year, "Zhiwei" only published one issue, and only one of the 27 food reviews was written by him personally. For three consecutive years, no restaurant has appeared on the cover of "Zhiwei" magazine.
Corresponding to "Knowing Taste" is the so-called Michelin restaurant selection, which has always been very unfriendly to florist rabbits, and most florist rabbits don't care or understand it at all.
Take Liu Qian as an example. She thought that Wu Minqi's Wu's Restaurant had one Michelin star. In fact, Wu's Restaurant only had an assistant chef from a one-Michelin-star restaurant poached from Hong Kong City. It was purely for fame, and It is said that it has been passed down for eight hundred years but has the same effect but different approaches.
There is currently no Michelin-starred restaurant in mainland China.
If Michelin restaurants don't play with the mainland, the mainland won't play with it either. For people who really know how to eat, instead of looking at the Michelin restaurant selections that do not match their own tastes and cannot eat, it is better to look through the food reviews of "Zhiwei" magazine over the years, which are at least more reliable than the so-called food recommendations on the Internet. Much more.
This shows how tempting the championship rewards of this delicious cooking competition are in the eyes of chefs from these prestigious restaurants.
Jiang Feng guessed that Han Guishan had a good personal relationship with Xu Cheng, otherwise with his wealth, he would not have the extraordinary ability to persuade Xu Cheng to hand over the cover of "Zhiwei".
Wang Hao spent more than ten minutes reading the encyclopedia of "Zhiwei" magazine. During this period, he also checked the information several times without realizing it, read two food reviews written by Xu Cheng himself, and then looked at the cheap price of 5 yuan a piece in his hand. The roasted chicken legs suddenly felt bland.
Not even the ice-cold Feizhai Happy Water can bring him happiness.
"Brother Feng, if you win the championship, won't you be famous all over the world?" Wang Hao sighed, "One person can achieve the Tao, a chicken or a dog can ascend to heaven, and live in wealth and honor. Don't forget each other!"
"I think it should be the cover of the magazine in China." Jiang Feng analyzed calmly. Zhiwei magazine is divided into China, Southeast Asia, Central Asia, Europe and America. Except for the reviews written by Xu Cheng himself, they will appear in all editions. Above, other reviews are specially provided based on the conditions of each region. There may be overlap, but the chance is not very high.
Jiang Feng even saw someone discussing on the Internet how much money Xu Cheng had to lose for every issue of "Zhiwei".
"The ones in China are also very good. No wonder, such awesome people all came from a lower level to participate in the competition. Hey, I won't talk about it anymore. I'm going to write an article. Brother Feng, please take your time and read." Wang Hao seemed to have opened up a new world. I opened the door and went to create at my desk.
Jiang Feng:...
He vaguely felt something was wrong.
I feel like "Zhiwei" magazine is going to suffer.
On the other side, Xu Cheng just got off the plane and arrived in City A.
Han Guishan picked him up at the airport. Jiang Feng guessed right. Han Guishan and Xu Cheng have been old friends for more than ten years and have a good personal relationship. In this competition, Xu Cheng will serve as a judge in the finals. Before that, he will be in the audience as an audience. Watch the game.
"Han Guishan, you guys are doing pretty well in this game. I see on the promotion list, Mr. Wu's granddaughter, Mr. Sun's grandson and Albert Duran have all been attracted by you. I'm afraid your company's stock price It’s going to go up a lot, right?”
"Boss Xu, you are so humble. Why are they here? You don't have to pretend to be confused, right? You haven't eaten yet. Let's go. Where to eat?" Han Guishan said with a smile.
"Yushanfang, you are the only one who can still eat the food from this restaurant." Xu Cheng said.
Han Guishan's assistant opened the car door for the two bosses and said to the driver in front of him: "Yu Shan Fang."
"Is Yushanfang still open at this late hour?" Xu Cheng said.
"I definitely won't have the honor to go, but it's different for you, Boss Xu. Even if you go at two in the morning, Chef Zhang from Yushanfang will open a small stove for you." Han Guishan stopped joking and took the official document handed to him by the assistant. Bag, took out a few pieces of information from it and handed it to Xu Cheng, "This is the judge's information we have scheduled. Please see if there are any problems."
Xu Cheng took the information and looked through it carefully.
