"Okay, let's prepare according to this plan." Zhao Tianming said excitedly, with a determined light flashing in his eyes.

In the following days, Zhao Tianming and his team began intensive preparations, carefully selecting raw materials and designing recipes, striving to perfectly present the freshness and sweetness of apples.

On the day of the apple banquet, the Siheyuan Restaurant was decorated with new decorations, and fresh apples were placed on each table, giving people a refreshing feeling. Guests arrived one after another, attracted by the scene before them, and full of expectations for this unique banquet.

Zhao Tianming stood at the kitchen door, watching the banquet hall gradually fill up with guests, but he felt a little uneasy. He was confident in his abilities, but he couldn't help but worry whether the banquet could meet the guests' expectations.

"Zhao Tianming, why are you so nervous?" A member of the kitchen team came over and patted Zhao Tianming on the shoulder. "Your dishes are always first-rate. This time, they will definitely be a great success."

Zhao Tianming smiled and nodded, but the uneasiness in his heart did not completely dissipate. He knew that this banquet would be a huge test for his cooking skills and the ability of his team, and he did not want to disappoint anyone.

"I know, but this time I hope to bring more surprises and satisfaction to the guests." Zhao Tianming answered frankly, with desire and pressure intertwined in his heart.

"You can do it, Zhao Tianming." Another team member came over and encouraged, "We all believe in you. We are a team. No matter what happens, we will face it together."

Zhao Tianming felt a warm current coming from these words. He looked at his team members with gratitude, and the uneasiness in his heart was gradually replaced by warmth and trust. He knew that he was not fighting alone, and with such a united and mutually supportive team, he could move forward courageously no matter what difficulties he encountered.

Zhao Tianming stood in the kitchen, staring at the round tables arranged in the banquet hall. A new idea suddenly came to his mind: to arrange a cooking competition. This would not only bring new fun to the guests, but also show the strength of the hotel team.

"Everyone, listen to me!" Zhao Tianming waved his hand and called the kitchen team members together. "I have a new idea. We will hold a cooking competition! Each group will send a representative to show their cooking skills and creativity with apples as the theme."

There was a burst of cheers and applause in the kitchen. Everyone was full of interest and anticipation for this new activity. This was not only an opportunity to show off oneself, but also an opportunity to exercise and improve oneself.

"I think I can participate!" a young chef raised his hand excitedly, with a gleam of joy in his eyes.

"Then I want to participate too!" another chef echoed, with a hint of challenge in his expression.

Zhao Tianming looked at the excitement of his team members and was filled with joy and anticipation. He knew that this competition could not only inspire everyone's creativity and passion, but also strengthen the team's cohesion and coordination.

Preparations for the competition started quickly, and everyone was fully engaged in the preparations. They selected the best ingredients, designed unique recipes, and strived to show their best in the competition.

Zhao Tianming stood at the kitchen door, looking through a corner of the banquet hall, watching the ongoing cooking competition. Although he looked calm on the surface, his heart was turbulent. The competition had entered a critical stage, and every detail could affect the final result.

"Zhao Tianming, which group do you think will win?" the chef next to him asked in a low voice. They were all nervously watching the progress of the competition.

Zhao Tianming frowned slightly, his eyes wandering between the various competition platforms. Each group of contestants showed excellent cooking skills and creativity, making it difficult for him to make a judgment. But as the head chef, he knew that he could not show weakness and had to remain calm and rational.

"I think every player has his or her own unique advantages, and we cannot predict the results." Zhao Tianming replied, a hint of contemplation in his voice.

The atmosphere in the kitchen became increasingly tense, and everyone was looking forward to the outcome of the game. Zhao Tianming felt the tension, and he knew he had to stay calm. As the leader of the team, he had to give them confidence and support.

"No matter what the result is, we have tried our best." Zhao Tianming encouraged his team members, "What is important is that we unite and work together. No matter what difficulties we encounter, we can overcome them together."

These words made the team members feel Zhao Tianming's care and support, and their tension was relieved to a certain extent. They knew that no matter what the final result was, they would stand firmly together and face the challenges of the future together.

Zhao Tianming stood alone in a corner next to the banquet hall, with a lot of thoughts in his mind. The competition entered the final stage, and pressure and anxiety were surging in his heart. He knew that as the chef of the hotel, any mistake could affect the reputation of the team and his own credibility.

"Zhao Tianming, what's wrong with you?" A team member came over and asked worriedly.

Zhao Tianming shook his head gently and tried to force out a smile. "It's okay, I just felt emotional for a moment."

"You know, we all believe in you." The team member comforted softly, "You are our leader, and we will always support you."

These words made Zhao Tianming feel a little warmer in his heart, but his worries were not completely dissipated. He knew that everyone in the kitchen team had high hopes for him and they trusted his ability, but he was also unwilling to let the team down. At this critical moment, he felt a huge responsibility.

"I just don't want to let everyone down." Zhao Tianming whispered to himself, with a determined light flashing in his eyes.

The team members stared at him, their hearts full of trust and support for him. They knew that no matter what difficulties they encountered, they would stand with Zhao Tianming and face them together.

Zhao Tianming stood in the middle of the banquet hall, smiling, and introduced today's special guests to all the chefs.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I am honored to introduce to you our special judge today. He is an old customer of our restaurant and also a famous gourmet - Mr. Banggeng!" Zhao Tianming's voice resounded throughout the banquet hall, causing applause and cheers.

Mr. Banggeng is an authority in the food world, he has a great taste and appreciation for food, his judgment will have a significant impact on the outcome of the competition. Zhao Tianming knows this very well, so he attaches great importance to the judging process.
