Chapter 651 Selection Process
Jiang Feng didn't know if today's bragging would turn into tomorrow's tears. He only had one thing on his mind right now——
Win first place!
In today's team building, he must be the first person to climb the Great Wall!
With this belief in mind, Jiang Feng climbed up the Great Wall with smooth steps. His height of over 1.7 meters made him stand out at 1.88 meters. Wu Minqi couldn't even catch up after him.
Wu Minqi:......
To be honest, she doesn't want this boyfriend anymore.
After thinking clearly that it was impossible for her to keep up with Jiang Feng's pace, Wu Minqi slowed down and let Jiang Feng compete for the first place alone, which no one cared about, while drinking water and walking slowly.
When the bottle of water was almost empty, Wu Minqi caught up with Ling Guangzhao and Zheng Siyuan who were resting behind them.
To be honest, Ling Guangzhao doesn't look like he's here to climb the Great Wall. Whoever climbs the Great Wall these days wears a suit and leather collar and doesn't have to go to work or have a meeting, and he doesn't have to worry about squeezing his feet when wearing leather shoes.
"Boss Ling, Master Zheng." Wu Minqi smiled and nodded at them both, "How long has Jiang Feng been here?"
"More than 10 minutes," Zheng Siyuan said. "It seemed like he kept his head buried in his thoughts as he walked away. He didn't seem to hear me when I called him."
"There was an employee in our store who seemed to have sprained his foot while walking in front. He sent a message to the WeChat group asking for help, and Jiang Feng hurried over. He didn't mean to ignore you. Don't worry about it, Master Zheng." Wu Minqi smiled and made up lies.
Zheng Siyuan believed it at that time and suddenly realized: "No wonder he was really anxious."
"How are you doing, Master Zheng? I haven't seen him for a long time." Wu Minqi asked politely.
Zheng Siyuan replied seriously: "My dad seems to have gone south to discuss business. He recently partnered with Boss Ling on a project, and I haven't contacted him for a long time."
"Then I wish Boss Ling success with his new project and a prosperous business," Wu Minqi said.
Ling Guangzhao's business has been bleak recently, and his accounts are in deficit. At night, he dreams that he is bankrupt, impoverished, penniless, and has nothing. Hearing Wu Minqi's congratulations like this makes his teeth hurt for no reason.
"I'd like to lend you some good words." Ling Guangzhao said.
"Then I'll leave first." Wu Minqi left slowly.
When Wu Minqi maintained this slow speed and slowly climbed to a position three beacon towers away from the top, where the cable car is located, she realized that she actually had a talent for crow's mouth.
Someone really sprained their foot.
That person is Ji Yue.
It's just that Ji Yue didn't sprain her feet while climbing the Great Wall. She sprained her feet before she started climbing.
Ji Yue's sprained ankle is a very normal thing. As a professional sprained leg user, Ji Yue regards sprained ankle as a part of life. He can drink water and eat as normally as he can. If he doesn't sprain his sprained ankle once or twice a day, he feels like something is missing.
Normally Ji Yue would wear high heels every day without any problems, but today she put on sneakers and something happened. Although the sprain was not as severe as when he went downstairs last time, there was still a small bulge on his ankle. Fortunately, Zhang Guanghang brought an ice pack in his bag and put it on Ji Yue in time.
No one knows why Zhang Guanghang had an ice pack in his bag.
Ji Yuewei naturally couldn't climb the Great Wall because of her sprained legs, but she didn't want to go back to the bus, so she took the cable car up with Zhang Guanghang.
Ji Xia had never been on a cable car. Seeing that Ji Yue and Zhang Guanghang were going to take the cable car, she also wanted to take it, so she reluctantly took out the remaining private money she usually spent on snacks and bought herself a cable car ticket with Ji Yue and the others. We took the cable car together.
So when Jiang Feng excitedly climbed to the cable car point, he saw Zhang Guanghang who was looking at the scenery while others were looking at him, and Ji Yue and Ji Xia who were taking pictures with their phones and still chewing potato chips.
As soon as Ji Xia saw Jiang Feng, he rushed up to him excitedly and told him that he had climbed to the top to look around, took photos for Ji Yue and now came down again.
Jiang Feng's championship is gone.
Just when Jiang Feng had no time to feel sad that he didn't have the championship, Ji Yue smiled and asked Jiang Feng to quickly take out her phone, click on the Moments, and like the Moments she posted two hours ago.
Not only is the mountain climbing champion gone, but so is the friend circle champion.
Jiang Feng was autistic, and while he was autistic, he thought about the awesomeness he had just boasted about.
Jiang Feng felt even more inferior.
When Wu Minqi arrived, she saw Jiang Feng, who was sitting in the corner and was autistic.
Wu Minqi did not ask Jiang Feng what was wrong, but first cared about Ji Yue's feet before asking, "What's wrong with Feng Feng?"
"I don't know." Ji Yue was still paging the picture, "He looked like this when he arrived. I guess he climbed too fast and was tired."
"Qiqi, what do you think of this picture? Is it unnatural?" Ji Yue handed the phone to Wu Minqi.
Wu Minqi took a look and said: "The legs could actually be a little longer. Xia Xia took the photo for you. I didn't find the right angle and the legs were too short for the photo."
"Sister Jiyue, is my photo ready? I just sent a WeChat message to my mother-in-law, and she asked me to send the photo to her." Ji Xia had a small cake in her mouth.
"Xia Xia, wait a moment. I'll print yours after I finish approving mine." Ji Yue said.
Wu Minqi suddenly became interested when she heard what Ji Xia said: "Which photo is Xia Xia's? Show me."
Ji Yue showed Wu Minqi the photo of Ji Xia standing on the Great Wall with one hand and giggling like "yeah".
Wu Minqi:......
"Remember to keep your face small."
Jiang Feng sat in the corner and continued to isolate himself.
Ji Yue finished the photo and sent it to Ji Xia. She glanced at Jiang Feng who was autistic in the corner, quietly pulled Wu Minqi's sleeve and asked in a low voice, "How is it? Have Aunt Wang and the others talked to Jiang Feng?"
"Talk."
"What was the result? Did Jiang Feng say anything?"
Wu Minqi shook her head: "I don't know. I couldn't hear them clearly up there. I just heard one sentence clearly. Jiang Feng said he was going to be on the celebrity chef list this year."
"A list of famous chefs?!" Ji Yue was shocked and immediately stood in awe of Jiang Feng, "Such a lofty ambition!"
"Celebrity Chefs' List?" Zhang Guanghang, who was standing aside and acting as the scenery for others, also joined the conversation, "If Jiang Feng can be on the Celebrity Chefs' List this year, he may be the youngest person to be on the Celebrity Chefs' List."
"Who is the holder of the previous record?" Ji Yue asked.
"It's me." Zhang Guanghang said, "Before me, it was Roland."
Ji Yue:......
Oh, they are all acquaintances.
"Then do you think Jiang Feng can join?" Ji Yue felt that this kind of thing should be asked to professionals.
"Difficult." Zhang Guanghang and Wu Minqi said in unison.
Ji Yue:? ? ?
Are you so disrespectful to Jiang Feng?
Ji Yue quietly glanced at Jiang Feng, who was autistic in the corner. Very good, he probably didn't hear it.
"Newcomers need fame and luck to be on the list of famous chefs. Jiang Feng's current reputation is not big enough." Zhang Guanghang explained, "Actually, in terms of strength, it should be possible to rank in the 90s with Jiang Feng's level. In the kitchen, In terms of skills, he and I should be evenly matched, but the chefs who can be listed on the celebrity chef list are basically well-known in the industry, and Jiang Feng is at a disadvantage in this regard."
"Isn't the celebrity chef list known as the fairest selection? Can this also increase votes?" Ji Yue expressed confusion.
"It's not about brushing votes, it's about preconceptions." Wu Minqi explained, "In the chef industry, unless the difference in strength is really obvious, it is difficult to judge the level of cooking skills. Each chef is good at different areas, and each diner has different preferences. , it has been a problem for chefs and food critics for so many years. ”
"In fact, after 80 people are listed on the celebrity chef list, the cooking skills of some chefs who have not been included in the celebrity chef list should be almost the same. Mr. Xu has tried his best to make this ranking fair, but it is impossible. Real fairness. In fact, the rankings of all the chefs on the celebrity chef list, except for Master Peng, who is ranked first, have always been controversial.”
"Relatively speaking, young chefs will have an advantage over middle-aged chefs, but if they are too young, the advantage will turn into a disadvantage." Zhang Guanghang said, "If Jiang Feng wants to be on the list of famous chefs, he should do it a year in advance. It would be better to tell him and ask Aunt Wang to buy him interviews, reports, and columns, so as to build his reputation in front of food critics.”
"And in fact, there are many people around the world like Master Zheng who are strong enough but have never participated in the celebrity chef rankings. Of course, it is very rare for top chefs like Grandpa Jiang to fail to participate in the celebrity chef rankings. Yes." Wu Minqi answered.
"For top chefs like Grandpa Jiang and others, Mr. Xu will definitely send out the best food critics, and may even ask respected seniors in the industry to inspect the rankings. But for chefs of our level, the food critics who inspect may Some relatively ordinary food critics who have a cooperative relationship with "Zhiwei" magazine are ranked based on comprehensive scores. There are many uncertain factors. It doesn't mean that you can get into it if you think you are strong enough. You have to rely on luck."
"Then how do you make selections? Do you send a bunch of food critics to go to major restaurants to find needles in the haystack?" Ji Yue asked curiously.
"That's not the case." Wu Minqi said with a smile, "Usually it is based on the previous ranking, plus the recommendations of famous chefs and others in the past two years. Mr. Xu Cheng will draw up a list of chefs and The list of food critics, but this list will not be published to the public, so it can be understood that the inspection is conducted in secret.”
"Mr. Xu Cheng has been staying in Beiping during this period. I estimate that there will be more chefs participating in the selection in Beiping. And based on time, it is almost time to finalize the list. I estimate that Mr. Xu will be busy during this period."
Ji Yue:?
"No, I saw him, his assistant and an old gentleman queuing up to buy cable car tickets before I sprained my ankle," Ji Yue said.
Wu Minqi & Zhang Guanghang:?
"Are you sure?" Wu Minqi felt that Ji Yue might have seen it wrong.
"I'm sure. I may not recognize Mr. Xu Cheng, but I recognize his assistant. Some time ago, it was his assistant who came to the store to help him order and grab food. I will never admit it!" Ji Yue looked sure, "And The old gentleman he is with looks very old from a distance, and his hair is all white. Do you think he is Mr. Xu’s father?”
Wu Minqi & Zhang Guanghang:......
As promised, I am so busy and exhausted, my head is hanging from my head and my buttocks are stabbing, I am conscientious and a model worker.
Pooh. Just know how to fish!
