Chapter 329 The Second Round of Qualifiers Begins

"Welcome everyone to the second round of the Sichuan Province Qualifiers of the National Youth Cooking Competition! I am the host Zuo Jie!" Zuo Jie said standing on the stage.

There was sparse applause from the audience.

There are more people watching the game today than before, but not too many.

After all, the boring cooking competition cannot be completely made up for by a commentary.

Think about it, sitting in the audience for hours and watching is boring.Most people wouldn't choose to watch it.

Those who came to the scene were all those who really love cooking. Only they could endure the boring process of the competition.

Compared with the live broadcast, there are many people watching the live broadcast.Although the game was a bit boring, the live broadcast brought a different meaning.

Those bullet screens brought a lot of interesting things to the game.

However, the culinary competition is not without its bright spots. If it does not have its own shining points, it is impossible to attract so many people even if it is a live broadcast.

The biggest highlight of the cooking competition is the moment when each delicious food is born.Although such an instant has been spoiled by play, it can never erase its light.

"The rules of this competition are similar to those of the first round. It is also a four-day competition. The difference is that there is only one game in the morning and one in the afternoon! The same change is also the time of each game, from two hours to two hours. It has been increased to three hours! The longer competition time gives the participating chefs more room to operate, and can better display their original cooking skills! Then, next, let us keep our eyes open to see these outstanding young people What wonderful performances and food the chefs will bring us!" Zuo Jie said.

Under the auspices of Zuo Jie, the first match of the second round began.

The same 35 chefs cook on the same stage, which is no different from the first round.

……

Jiang Yang was not at the scene, he stayed in the store and watched the game on his mobile phone.

There was still a plate of melon seeds in his left hand, and he was knocking the melon seeds while watching the live broadcast.

In the first round of the competition, Jiang Yang didn't eat melon seeds while watching the live broadcast. He didn't understand at that time.I regret it now, watching the live broadcast with melon seeds, this is the correct posture!
If it weren't for the limited conditions, Jiang Yang would have wanted to lie on the rocking chair, use the lazy support, and watch the live broadcast while rocking and kneading melon seeds.

It's a pity that there is no rocking chair at home, and it would be a waste to sell one on purpose.Moreover, the space of the store below is limited. There were so many tables and chairs originally, but barbecue grills, counters, conveyor belts and machines were added later.Although Jiang Yang bought these things in miniature sizes, no matter how miniature they are, they still take up space, don't they?

Halfway through the first game, Jiang Yang saw an acquaintance in this game.

Sure enough, the extension of the competition time caused most of the participating chefs to choose relatively complicated dishes.

Simple dishes, but few people cook them.

At the end of the first round, there were no surprising dishes, but the scores of these dishes were higher than those in the first round.

Jiang Yang turned off the phone and let it charge for a while.

He himself got up to make lunch. After all, the second game had to go in the afternoon, and it was still early before the start time.

Except for the period of travel, Jiang Yang rarely had such a leisurely day.

There is nothing to do on weekdays, Jiangyang is always open for business.Although it is not like some businesses, they can't wait to rest 24 hours a day, 360 days a year, [-] days a year.

However, Jiang Yang was always unwilling to disappoint his diners.

His restaurant has, in a sense, become a canteen for some of the people who work around him.If he is too freewheeling, then he will be a little sorry for their support.

But... like today, Jiang Yang is still willing to close the door with a reasonable reason.

That's why Jiangyang was only closed for four days, which was considered a vacation for himself.

In fact, Jiang Yang doesn't need four days, the game only takes half a day.

Anyway, the reason Jiang Yang gave was that he needed time to prepare for the game.As for whether it is true or not, only he himself knows.

……

After lunch, Jiang Yang took a nap and waited for the start of the second game today.

In the afternoon game, Jiang Yang finally met an acquaintance.

No, you can't say acquaintances, after all, Jiang Yang doesn't know him at all.

This person was the other chef who had [-]% dishes in the first round of qualifiers besides Jiang Yang.

Jiang Yang vaguely remembered the chef's name—Geng Wuqing!
He paid special attention to the chef's name at that time, but he still remembered it.

Chef Geng caused quite a stir as soon as he came on stage, whether it was live or in the live broadcast room.

After all, only one in [-] to [-] chefs didn't attract attention.

Jiang Yang didn't know what the audience said, he only knew that the netizens in the live broadcast room were excited.

"The Great God appears! Everyone retreat!" This is a relatively common barrage.

"Wow! Uncle Geng is so handsome, I really want to take him home~" This is a barrage from a nympho.

"I'm a fan of Uncle Geng, as expected, the idol looks handsome when he's on stage." This is what a fan said.

Seeing this, Jiang Yang couldn't help being a little surprised. Does this Chef Geng have fans?

What Jiang Yang didn't know was that other people not only had fans, but also fan clubs.

Of course he didn't even know that, in fact, he has fans himself, and his popularity is higher than Geng Wuqing's.

It's just... Poor Jiangyang fans, other chefs have Weibo accounts, and organizations can be found on it, but Jiangyang doesn't have any accounts.

The only one that was known was Jiangyang's Douyin, but Jiangyang didn't play anymore!
Jiangyang fans are like abandoned orphans.

The problem is, Jiang Yang didn't even realize that he also had fans, let alone spent time and energy on managing it.

Jiang Yang saw that the topic of the barrage was getting more and more biased, so he couldn't help but turn off the barrage.

Sure enough, I still like to watch the game quietly, playing barrage or something is not suitable for me at all.

I don't know if it's because of Geng Wuqing's high score in the first round, but this shot always captures him intentionally or unintentionally.

Of course, Jiang Yang is naturally happy. After all, he pays attention to Geng Wuqing and looks forward to what kind of dishes he can make.

……

"Xiaoyi, don't you watch the game?" Chen Cuyi's sister asked in the kitchen.

Chen Cuyi kept moving his hands, and said, "It's not necessary."

"Today is that Chef Geng Wuqing's competition, don't you really want to go and see it?" Sister Chen Cuyi said.

Chen Cuyi shook his head: "I have only one enemy."

Chen Cuiyi's elder sister also knew who Chen Cuiyi was talking about. Chen Cuiyi now spends every day in the kitchen, isn't it because of that person's stimulation?

"Oh? But that Geng Wuqing has ninety percent of the dishes!" Sister Chen Cuyi said.

"He is so much older than me. If I were his age, I would have gone to participate in the National Cooking Exchange Competition." Chen Cuyi curled his lips.

What he meant was very clear, Geng Wuqing was powerful, but because of his age, if he reached his age, he would definitely surpass him.

It's not that Chen Cuiyi is arrogant, it's because of his talent, he has found his own way, as long as he gives himself a few more years, he can reach the threshold of a master chef.
Jiang Yang was the only one in Sichuan province who could be regarded as an opponent by Chen Cuyi.Of course... the whole country is so big, Chen Cuyi must have more than one opponent.

Sister Chen Cuyi shook her head, her younger brother was always so proud.

"Uncle, uncle! Can you play with me?" A little girl ran in from the kitchen door.

This is Chen Cuyi's sister's daughter, and it is also Chen Cuyi's nightmare.

This little girl is very clingy, especially Chen Cuiyi. She often asks Chen Cuiyi to play with her, um... a very naive kind of game.

Chen Cuyi had a headache for a while, but he still said, "Ninny, after uncle finishes this dish, can you play with her?"

Nannan opened her big black eyes, looked at the stove, and said with a pout, "Is uncle making delicious food? Nannan wants to eat too."

"Okay, okay, uncle will cook something delicious for my daughter to eat." Chen Cuyi said.

Sister Chen Cuyi pulled Nannan aside: "Hey, let's not disturb uncle, okay! Mom will take you to play."

Nannan looked at Chen Cuyi, then at her mother, tilted her head and thought for a while, and then said: "Okay then!"
