Chapter 355 The First Day of the Expo

Of course, Zhao Lei didn't know that a conspiracy against him was approaching, and Zhao Lei's full attention was now on the World Food Expo.

With the attention of many people, the expo officially opened the next morning.

However, according to the tradition of the expo, the first day is not open to the public, and it is the time for the jury to evaluate the exhibited ingredients.Only after the judges have selected the gold, silver and bronze awards for various ingredients, the expo will open to the public on the second day for practitioners in the gastronomy circle and the public to visit.

The award-winning ingredients will not only attract the attention of visitors, but will also be sought after by the entire gourmet circle.In the past, there were many little-known small companies that became famous because of an award for a certain ingredient, and soon developed into a leader in the industry.

It is precisely because of this that the judges of each expo are very cautious and try their best to maintain the fairness of the expo.Everyone knows in their hearts that it is precisely because the previous fairs have been very fair that they have today's status in the food circle.

However, there is an old saying in China that it is "difficult to say the same thing". Although each judge tries to evaluate the exhibits as objectively as possible, everyone's tastes will not be exactly the same after all, so there will inevitably be disputes or even quarrels during the selection process. This is true in previous expositions It has become commonplace.

However, the selection work of this expo has been unusually smooth.It’s not even noon yet, and the judges have reached consensus on several items, including the best vegetables, best poultry, best poultry eggs, best fruit, and best fungus ingredients, and are waiting for the final vote.

The chairman of the jury is Wolff, an Austrian with a big beard. He looked at the other judges seriously and said, "Everyone, do you have any objections to the selection results of these awards?"

The other judges were all silent, expressing that they had absolutely no opinion on the result.

Seeing that everyone was silent, Wolfe nodded and said, "Then these awards are determined. Next, we will start discussing the ranking of the best seafood and meat."

"I think Kobe beef is the best."

"No, no, Australian beef is better this year!"

"It's better to be in the United States."

"The best seafood is of course the 500-kg bluefin tuna."

"I think Arctic king crab is better!"

After starting to select other awards, the judges immediately resumed tradition and began to argue.

Wolf pinched his eyebrows in pain, and reluctantly continued to preside over the selection of other awards.

For the vast majority of exhibitors, the first day of the food expo was a very torturous day.They waited for the results of the selection with great anticipation, hoping that the ingredients they selected would be recognized by the judges. Even if they only won a bronze award, it would be of great benefit to their future development.

However, Zhao Lei is not as uneasy as his peers. He has full confidence in his ingredients. Unless all the judges are blind, it is absolutely certain that the fairy gourd ingredients will win the award.

So taking advantage of the rare free time, Zhao Lei decided to take a day trip to Paris.Not only went to the famous Eiffel Tower and the Louvre, but also walked along the nearby Seine River to experience the charming style of this famous romantic capital.

What makes Zhao Lei a little regretful is that Jessica stayed in the hotel room to catch up on the manuscript, so she couldn't visit Paris with him.Without the company of the glamorous female reporter, Zhao Lei always felt that something was missing

It's just that Zhao Lei didn't notice that since he left the George V Four Seasons Hotel, there were several suspicious-looking guys following behind him.

These people all have very obvious characteristics of North African race, carefully avoiding the police along the way, they are the illegal immigrants that Martin has found.

These people followed Zhao Lei in turn to avoid being discovered by him, kept in touch with each other through mobile phones, and looked for opportunities to do something along the way.

However, the places Zhao Lei went to were the most popular scenic spots in Paris, not only full of tourists but also a lot of policemen.No matter how daring these illegal immigrants were, they didn't dare to do anything to Zhao Lei in this kind of place. They just followed him for a whole day in vain, and finally watched Zhao Lei back to the hotel helplessly.

"What should we do?" A guy with a big beard asked the leading man: "In this way, we will have no chance to start. That's a full [-] euros!"

Henry's reward was [-] euros, but Martin deducted [-], leaving only [-] in the hands of these illegal immigrants.But even [-] euros is enough to make these guys who usually rely on petty theft and rob tourists' money go crazy, and even dare to kill Zhao Lei.

The leading man looked at the hotel gate with a sullen expression, and said with a frown: "Let people keep an eye on this place, and notify others as soon as the Chinese appears. I don't believe it, he will always be active in crowded places, as long as there are Given a chance, we'll..."

Speaking of this, the man cut his throat, and the others all laughed knowingly.These guys are all lawless, and they are not afraid of killing people at all. They just want to earn Henry's [-] euros.

Zhao Lei didn't know that Henry would use such indecent means.He slept comfortably in the hotel, and went to the food expo with Jessica and Pierre the next morning, waiting for the organizing committee to announce this year's awards.

When the three felt the scene of the expo, almost all the exhibitors had already arrived, even Anthony was among the crowd.

Seeing Zhao Lei appearing with Jessica together, Anthony couldn't help being jealous, and went up to greet him with a sneer and said, "The organizing committee will soon announce the list of winners, enjoy your last time with Jessica! Next In those days, you can only watch me pursue her from afar!"

Zhao Lei glanced at Anthony impatiently and said, "I hope you still remember the content of the bet, you can abide by Chen promise, and don't harass Jessica from now on!"

In fact, even if Zhao Lei didn't say it, Anthony wouldn't dare to do it.A reporter has made the bet between the two public in the media, and many people know about it.If Anthony still entangles Jessica after losing the bet, not only will his own credibility be ruined immediately, but the entire Farnese family will also be implicated.Even if Anthony is the heir of the family, he would not dare to act so boldly.

After hearing Zhao Lei's words, Anthony sneered and said, "This is what I want to tell you too. Remember to keep your promises. If you are a man, you must keep your word!"

Zhao Lei said indifferently: "I hope you can also act like a man, but don't go back and forth like you were going to duel that day!"

Choked so speechless by Zhao Lei, Anthony turned around angrily and left.

At this time, Malcolm came to the podium and said loudly to everyone: "Everyone, the selection results of this year's World Ingredient Expo have been announced, and now Mr. Todd, the chairman of the Expo, will announce the results to everyone!"
