Rich Man and Wife Raising Cubs [Rebirth]

The female staff opened the small 2-meter-high door behind her for Kaixin, and signaled Kaixin to go in.

Kai Xin walked through the iron gate, her eyes went dark, but her ears immediately heard the chaotic voices of people.

"Are the seats all right? Is there any problem?"

"Xiao Wang, check the makeup of the contestants!"

"Check the equipment on each cooking table again, and there must be no mistakes."

……

After Kaixin got used to the darkness, he found that the studio in front of him was almost 1000 square meters, and it was filled with sets and people running back and forth. Because the distance was too large, everyone communicated by roaring.

A boy ran over from the direction of the set, approached Kaixin and recognized him as the black-framed boy whom he had met last time.

The boy in the black frame showed a kind smile: "Mr. Kai, you are here, I will take you there."

Kai Xin nodded and followed his footsteps.

The black-framed man explained to Kaixin as he walked: "After you draw the number, please wait in the rest area. At the same time, please turn off your mobile phone to avoid affecting the recording of the program."

Kai Xin responded with a good voice, and observed from afar the venue that had been set up in the studio:

The 4 cooking tables arranged in 8*32 are lined up in sequence. The bottom of the cooking table is made of logs. The stainless steel table is shining with silvery white light. On it are knives, pots, pans and bottles of various seasonings. Can.

In front of the cooking table are four guest seats. The big black chairs for the guests look soft and comfortable. In front of the chairs is a long black marble table, which should be used to present dishes.

Behind the cooking table and the guest seats, there is a huge log-colored background wall. In the middle of the wall is a huge orange logo, which says "Master Chef" and "masterchef" in Chinese and English respectively.

Seeing the logo with the name of the competition, Kai Xin's heart beat faster for several beats, and finally felt the tension before the competition.

There are cameras and other equipment all around the competition venue, and many staff members are preparing intensively.

The black-framed boy took Kaixin to the contestant waiting area outside the scene, asked Kaixin to rest here to wait for the makeup artist to put on makeup, and then rushed to the door to wait for other contestants.

There are dozens of reclining chairs in the waiting area, and there are already more than a dozen players sitting and waiting, and everyone's appearance and dress are very distinctive.After Kaixin appeared, those people's probing and curious eyes all focused on him.

Kai Xin nodded, picked a seat in the second row and sat down, then began to observe the players who had arrived.

The faces of the contestants are mainly young and middle-aged, but there are also aunts with silver hair mixed in; most of them are wearing their own private clothes, but there are also a few people wearing white chef clothes of different styles, which can be recognized as professional chefs at a glance.

Kai Xin didn't see the man with the bulbous nose that he had seen in the last time he was filming his personal introduction, but he was so ostentatious last time, and he didn't seem like someone who would arrive early.

Kaixin sent text messages to Ruan Hanshan and the bodyguard respectively to report that they were safe, then turned off the phone and waited for the next arrangement.

After a while, a girl with short hair came over and asked if there was any other contestant without makeup.Kaixin and her looked at each other, and recognized her as Sister Yang who helped her put on makeup last time.

Sister Yang also recognized Kai Xin, nodded with a smile on her lips, and asked him, "Has Mr. Kai put on makeup?"

"It's been melted, thank you!" Kaixin smiled back.

Sister Yang made an "OK" gesture and took another girl who had just arrived to make up.

Contestants came one after another, the waiting area became less and less empty, and the voices of the contestants talking to each other became louder and louder.

Kaixin's palms were sweating nervously, and when she was waiting anxiously, the man in the black frame approached with a man.

Finally, a person Kaixin knew came - the man with the bulbous nose that he had met in advance last time.

The man is still dressed in a white chef uniform today, his hair is combed shiny and shiny, standing behind the black-framed man, he glanced haughtily at the contestants who sat down.

"Wang Jianzhang is here too?!" Kai Xin heard a girl's exclamation from behind.

The man with the bulbous nose was originally called Wang Jianzhang, but who is Wang Jianzhang?Kai Xin didn't know her, but from the girl's tone, she seemed to be a very special person.

Next to Kaixin, a tall boy with a feminine face but a tall figure let out a gasp from his nose: "This kind of chef who is already famous is also coming to compete with us? That's a fart!"

The black-framed boy clapped his hands vigorously, and said loudly: "All the contestants are here, now please draw lots together to determine the serial number of each person's cooking table."

There was a boy behind him carrying a wooden box, and he heard this and came up.

All the contestants got up and came forward to draw lots. Wang Jianzhang, who was standing beside the black-framed man, was the first to touch the opening above the box and took out a white cardboard card from the box.

"No. 2." Wang Jianzhang raised the corner of his mouth and raised the card in his hand.

Kai Xin heard someone behind him "cut" heavily.

Kaixin knew that the probability of drawing early and late was the same, so she didn't rush to the front, and slowly lined up behind.When it was time for him, Kai Xin drew number 8.

The meaning is good, Kai Xin nodded.

Next, the contestants entered the corresponding cooking table according to the drawn number and waited for the recording. Kaixin stood in front of the No. 8 cooking table on the far right of the second row, and found that in addition to the kitchen utensils and seasonings on the table, there was also an oven for the contestants under the table. and steam box.

Kai Xin lowered her head to confirm how to use it, and when she looked up, she found a young girl with black shoulder-length hair standing in front of No. 7 cooking table on the left.

The girl's facial features are exquisite and have a classical charm, her upturned and small nose is extremely perfect, and her beauty is comparable to that of many female stars.But when she stood in front of the cooking counter, she immediately began to check the kitchen utensils on the countertop and the oven and steamer below, her movements were skillful and smooth, showing extremely high professionalism.

From a distance, Kai Xin saw Sister Yang walking over with a black cosmetic bag, and stopped in front of No. 2 cooking counter on the front left.She took out the powder puff from her bag, and raised her hand to pat lightly on Wang Jianzhang's fat face that looked very greasy.

Kaixin: ...Wang Jianzhang really cares about his own image.

The director came over and shouted with a loudspeaker: "The filming will start in 5 minutes. Everyone listen to my password. After the recording starts, please turn off your mobile phones and pay attention to your personal image!"

After a while, a beautiful hostess in a black tweed dress stepped on seven-centimeter nude high-heeled shoes into the set and stood beside the guest seats.

Kai Xin took a few deep breaths, trying to calm down her ever-accelerating heartbeat.

Five minutes later, the director gave an order, and the game officially started recording.

The hostess showed an elegant smile to the camera: "Hi everyone, welcome to MasterChef, I am the host Wu Jing."

After the hostess routinely introduced the sponsors of the show, she continued: "There is a saying that goes, 'Food is the first thing for the people'. In fact, there are many unknown culinary masters hidden among the ordinary people around us. After a series of auditions, we invited 32 amateur culinary experts with completely different ages and occupations to compete."

Kai Xin found a photographer pointing the camera at her face, suppressed the tension in her heart, and smiled at the camera.

"For them, every game will be an extremely difficult challenge, but the fruit of the final victory is also extraordinarily sweet." The hostess blinked slyly, and introduced the bonuses that the top three players could get and how to get along with them. The lucrative reward for signing a contract with Hongyi Brokerage Company.

The hostess began to invite the guests to enter, and Kaixin held her breath, staring at the entrance beside her.

The first person to enter was the chef Sabina from a foreign Michelin three-star restaurant.She has deep facial features and red hair, and there is a smile in her green eyes when she enters the arena;

The second place is Shi Tianhua, a national treasure culinary master and Cantonese cuisine master.The old man was over 70 years old, and sat down in the second position tremblingly;

The third is Chen Huifang, a famous food critic and writer who has appeared in many food programs.The author of many gourmet books, she wears a pair of gold-rimmed glasses and looks very serious.

When the fourth guest came into the arena, the hostess looked at the sign in her hand and feigned surprise: "This one, I think many people know and like it..."

Kai Xin swallowed her saliva, thinking of someone—Guan Yu.

"Welcome the fourth guest, Mr. Guan Yu, a famous actor in Huaguo, known as the 'No. [-] Best Actor'!"

The impact of this name was so strong that several contestants in the back row had already exclaimed; even though Kai Xin had a premonition, when the hostess pronounced this name, her heart beat faster and her palms sweated.

Guan Yu is not only a guest, but also the big boss behind Hongyi who has the decision-making power. His thoughts may decide whether a player will stay or not.

Guan Yu was wearing a custom-made Versace suit with a light gray check pattern. His deep eyes were engraved on his face, and there was a breeze-like smile on his lips. He nodded to the contestants and sat down calmly.

Kai Xin felt Guan Yu's eyes lightly drift over, swept all the players around, and then moved away without leaving a trace.

At the invitation of the host, Mr. Shi Tianhua, the master of Cantonese cuisine, began to announce the rules of the first competition: "The most important quality of a chef is to be able to 'change'. In the first competition today, please use the limited ingredients, Demonstrate your ability to 'change'."

Four staff members pushed up two huge cargo platforms, but the cargo platforms were covered with red velvet cloth, so they couldn't see what was inside.

The old man Shi Tianhua walked slowly to the container on the left, held up the microphone and said: "The most common meat on the Chinese table is pork. Pork is sweet and salty in nature, high in nutritional value and easy to digest. There are also many ways to cook it. "As he finished speaking, he lifted off the red flannel on the cargo platform on the left.

A fat, white pig was lying quietly on the counter.

Kaixin began to quickly recall one recipe after another about pork in his mind.

Shi Tianhua scanned around, a clear smile appeared on his slightly wrinkled but ruddy face, and he said slowly: "Everyone, don't worry about what to do first, and then look here."

He walked to the cargo counter on the right, and uncovered the red velvet cloth above, revealing vegetables and fruits of different colors and shapes.

"Please choose a part of pork, mix it with a vegetable and fruit here, cook a dish in 45 minutes, and show everyone's ability to 'change'." Shi Tianhua announced.

So simple?Kaixin was a little surprised, there are many ways to cook pork, even if it is made with vegetables and fruits, it is not difficult.

"But——" Shi Tianhua's voice changed, and the smile on the corner of his mouth was a bit weird, "Today there is only one pig, and there is only one portion of each vegetable and fruit. The 32 contestants will be decided by lottery. Who can win first?" Pick what you want."

Kai Xin's heart sank suddenly.

The 32 contestants have to share the meat of a pig. If they are unfortunately ranked behind, the only choices they can choose are pork knuckle and blood neck meat.

Bloody neck meat is full of lymph, which is harmful to the human body, so it must not be selected; although pork knuckle is not good, but because of the thick skin and tendons, it is definitely not enough to cook in 45 minutes.

He shouldn't be so unlucky, right?
