After quitting sports, I became a chef

Almost overnight, the name of 'Su Bai, chef of the canteen on the third floor of the s provincial track and field team' spread among the veterans of the forum. After all, the veterans from other places are not in the same place. Let's not mention it for the time being, but all the gourmets in the province of S have more or less started to build relationships with each other.

The most direct one was the old glutton who knew Sun Xiangdong. Although the relationship between him and Sun Xiangdong was not very good, there was still some face in coming to him for a meal.

Before he posted Sun Xiangdong's evaluation of Su Bai on the forum, he had already made an appointment with Sun Xiangdong for a meal—and he didn't ask for anything else. He knew that the kitchen chef usually left some room after cooking. As the chefs' own lunch, when he found out that the chefs of the track and field team were eating Su Bai's meals together, he directly opened his mouth with a straight face.

Sun Xiangdong doesn't know where his old friend Qian Desheng found out about Su Bai's craftsmanship, but he also knows that his old friend is a seasoned gourmet, and he has no other hobbies on weekdays, just want to eat Okay, he didn't think much about it for a while, and agreed.

After Sun Xiangdong hung up Qian Desheng's call, it didn't take long before he received a series of calls, all asking him about Su Bai. a meal.

?

???

At this moment, Sun Xiangdong finally knew what was wrong. Su Bai's fame seemed to spread in the gourmet circle in province S, not only in the gourmet circle in province S. Friends in the city also called him to find out if there was such a person as Su Bai, and if he really had such a good craftsmanship.

The first one or two friends wanted to have a meal, and Sun Xiangdong agreed without thinking too much, and when someone revealed their intention to have a meal on the phone later, Sun Xiangdong rejected them first.

After all, when the time comes, the one who really wants to cook an extra bite is Su Bai. He has one or two friends who come to eat, and it's okay to say hello to Su Bai. If he really brought a bunch of people, what would it be like?Even if Su Bai agrees, his Sun Xiangdong doesn't have that face!

So, like Qian Desheng and Li Ruixiang, another old gourmet from city s, took advantage of the first move, got Sun Xiangdong's promise, and happily came to the track and field team of province s at noon the next day.

Outside the gate of the track and field team, Qian Desheng and Li Ruixiang happened to meet each other. They greeted each other with a smile, and then began to chat about Su Bai's skills.

"Oh, the comments made by the father and son of the Dou family made my heart itch."

"Who isn't? But just like what Dou's second son said, it's not like cooking in a small stove after all. The taste should be different from what the father and son have tasted."

The two chatted for a while, then called Sun Xiangdong in the guard room at the gate of the track and field team to prove it, and then took out their ID cards to register, the two of them typed the entry application form together, and asked the security guard about the track and field team In the direction of the cafeteria, he walked slowly in the direction of the cafeteria.

The timing of their arrival was also precisely determined. It was just after the meal was served in the cafeteria, and the chefs in the back kitchen had their own free time, and they could sit down and rest to prepare for the meal.

It can be said that the point where the two arrived was not too early or too late. Most of the athletes were already eating or were about to finish eating at this point, so it was hard to see how many people were in the team at the moment.

When the two of them reached the stairs on the second floor of the cafeteria, the smell of the food on the third floor also faintly wafted—at this point, the smell of the food had almost dissipated, but even the little smell left them refreshed .

Hey, the smell from the third floor is really so interesting?

When Qian Desheng and Li Ruixiang arrived outside the back kitchen on the third floor, Sun Xiangdong also saw them, so he opened the door of the back kitchen and let them into the back kitchen.

After all, the back kitchen is not a serious place to eat, there are only some tables, and the chefs on the first and second floors also come to the third floor at this point, talking and laughing in the back kitchen, rubbing Su Bai's food, and complimenting Su Bai from time to time One of Su Bai's dishes today tasted exceptionally good.

After Qian Desheng and the others came in, it seemed that the back kitchen was a bit crowded, but they didn't mind it at all. After all, they are old foodies, and they have never been to any dirty and messy fly restaurant just because of stuttering. Woolen cloth?As long as the chef's craftsmanship is really good and the food is really delicious, then they basically don't mind the dining environment.

Before Qian Desheng and the others came, Sun Xiangdong told Su Bai about this incident.Su Bai roughly guessed that this matter should be related to the father and son of the Dou family, but he did not expect that the influence of the father and son of the Dou family would be so great.

After entering the back kitchen, Qian Desheng and Li Ruixiang first greeted Su Bai with a smile—they knew that when the second son of the Dou family mentioned Su Bai yesterday, he was talking about their brother-in-law's junior, so we can see It can be concluded that Su Bai is young, but only after seeing him face to face, does he feel that Su Bai is too young.

And this kid, he looks gentle, not only can't tell that he is a top chef, but also can't tell that he is a trainer.

But the scent from the tip of the nose told them that this kid named Su Bai really had extraordinary skills.

When the food was brought to Qian Desheng and Li Ruixiang, the two of them thanked and moved their chopsticks—just like what Sun Xiangdong told them in advance, they were all big pot meals made by Su Bai in the cafeteria, nothing to worry about. It's optional, but this meal has three dishes and one soup, so it's definitely not bad.

What was sent to the two of them was a celery and beef soup, braised yellow croaker tofu, fried beef tenderloin with king oyster mushrooms, and fried lotus root slices. It can be seen that most of these meals are cooked to meet the nutritional needs of athletes , there are basically no heavy dishes, and the food is mainly nutritious and easy to digest, without adding burden to the body.

But no one would say that the dishes in front of them have only the advantages mentioned above—for veteran gourmets like Qian Desheng and Li Ruixiang, such delicious dishes are undoubtedly the delicacy they are after!

The celery beef soup is smooth in the mouth, not only full of the refreshing fragrance from the celery, but also the beef is tender and tasty, slightly sour soup, one bite into the stomach, it will make the mouth salivate, very appetizing, braised yellow croaker The most important thing about tofu is that it is soft, tender and delicious. Among them, the yellow croaker tofu is delicious, and the tofu and fish are equally tender. The soup absorbed by the stew is even and full. Scoop a spoonful of tofu into the mouth, and then hold a chopstick. The delicious fish, Instantly satisfying.

If I really want to say that there is a fly in the ointment for Qian Desheng and Li Ruixiang, it is that there is only a glass of wine on the table. If you can take a sip of smoldering rice wine for such a delicacy, the taste will be even better !

Qian Desheng and Li Ruixiang looked at each other, and they could understand the slight regret in each other's eyes. After looking at each other, the two of them turned their attention to the dinner plate again, carefully savoring the food in front of them one bite at a time. gourmet food.

Hey, there is no way, they all know that the old friends who called Sun Xiangdong after Li Ruixiang were all rejected by Sun Xiangdong, just the two of them, this is one bite and one bite less, and the next time they don't want to do it again. Let's take advantage of this old face to eat!

Thinking of this, the two ate more meticulously, and after importing these delicacies, they couldn't help but marvel at Su Bai's craftsmanship in their hearts.

With Su Bai's hand, it is not an exaggeration to praise "exquisite cooking skills and skillful skills". The taste is even and the heat is just right, and there are no problems that often occur in big pot dishes.

What Qian Desheng and both of them thought was the same, this Su Bai even has such a standard in cooking big pot dishes, so how beautiful would the dishes cooked by the small stove that Dou's father and son ate the day before be so beautiful?

And what the Dou family father and son ate was a table full of delicious food!

Thinking of this, both of Qian Desheng couldn't help feeling a little envious and jealous.

After enjoying the meal, before leaving, Qian Desheng and Li Ruixiang praised Su Bai for a good meal. After the compliment was over, the two of them inquired about Su Bai again, and found out whether he was really serious or not. The idea of ​​leaving the track and field team to open their own private kitchen made the two old gourmets feel a little depressed—it would be really difficult to eat Su Bai's food in the future.

After eating this meal, Qian Desheng and Li Ruixiang returned to their homes, opened the forum where the food is delicious, quoted Dou Yifeng's post, and each of them praised Su Bai again.

Qian Desheng: [Oh, although Master Xiaobai is young, his cooking skills are really top-notch. The delicious aroma of that mouthful of braised tofu with yellow croaker is still lingering on the tip of my tongue. It's a pity, wow, it's almost After drinking that glass of wine, if I could take a sip at that moment, the taste...wouldn't be worth mentioning! 】

Li Ruixiang: [Master Xiaobai's craftsmanship is really top-notch. After eating in province S for so many years, it can be said that the standard of these dishes today is comparable to that of Master Lin a few years ago! 】

This old master Lin was a master in the gourmet circle of province S in the early years. It is said that his master was also from a family of royal chefs, but later declined, and only the craftsmanship was passed on to him.

The old gourmets are not sure about the fact that the imperial chef is not the imperial chef, but as long as the chefs have top-notch craftsmanship, coupled with the story of the imperial chef's background, it will often make the old gourmets feel ashamed when they eat. From these meals, we can learn some stories behind them.

It can be said that a chef who has the title of successor of the royal chef is sought after by everyone in the food industry, and it is easy not to eat a dish in their hands.

Li Ruixiang and Qian Desheng, among the old gourmets, can be regarded as snarky, because of their seniority and wide connections, these two have really eaten a lot of good food, and today the two Looking at Su Bai, he praised him again, especially when Li Ruixiang compared Su Bai with the top and well-known old Master Lin in S Province.

It's just that there's nothing to be greedy about. In the back kitchen of the provincial track and field team, there is really one Sun Xiangdong who can sell face and bring people in for a meal. Even if the remaining chefs really ask, Su Bai won't refuse, they will He was suppressed by Sun Xiangdong first, so as not to attract too many people and make Su Bai overwhelmed.

The way to Sun Xiangdong and other back kitchen chefs seemed to be blocked for a while, and the father and son of the Dou family also kept silent, saying that this was the apprentice of their in-laws, but not their apprentice, so how could they always trouble others?

All of a sudden, although the old gourmets knew that there was such a "Master Xiaobai", they could only "look at Baixing and sigh", and they were in vain.

Even, some old gourmets in the forum joked - "When I send my kid to become an athlete, maybe one day I can use the name of family visits to go to the cafeteria of the track and field team to have a bite of Xiaobai!" Master's meal."

On the Food, Sex and Fragrance forum, because the Dou family father and son, Qian Desheng, Li Ruixiang and others made their voices successively, Su Bai's culinary skills were also widely spread for a while, but Su Bai was not very clear about these things, and Sun Xiangdong Although he knew it, he knew in his heart that Su Bai's right way was still on the way of coaching, so he didn't tell him much about the matter on the Food and Beauty Forum.

In the afternoon, after dealing with the back kitchen, Su Bai came to the training ground with the training plan he had prepared for Zhang Wei and Hu Li when it was time for training.

On the training ground, Zhang Wei and Hu Li already knew that Su Bai would bring them the latest training plan today, so they were a little excited and nervous for a while.

After Su Bai came to the field, he didn't put too much pressure on them. For veteran athletes like Hu Li and Zhang Wei, their ability to withstand pressure is actually quite strong, but at the same time, after they resisted the pressure, because Years of training results have not been greatly improved, so that they are a little disappointed and lack of confidence in their own strength and performance, which leads them to blame them on their lack of talent after failing to achieve excellent results. Over time, under the vicious circle, they will become more and more 'tired', feeling that the athletes' life is just passing by.

Previously, after Su Bai formally took over Hu Li and Zhang Wei, during the [-]-meter speed test and a series of tests after that, Su Bai wanted to get some latest test data for himself, and secondly, it was for Hu Li, Zhang Wei, etc. Zhang Wei and Zhang Wei increased their confidence a little.

The power of self-confidence is a bit mysterious to say, but it can indeed bring some additional state enhancements to people. When a person is doing something with confidence, he only needs to put in the same effort and hard work, and then he will be successful. The probability is often much higher than that of an unconfident person.

Hu Li and Zhang Wei are now in such a state where they are gradually developing some confidence. In addition, Su Bai, the 400-meter coach they are both looking forward to and convincing in, makes them both look forward to future training and training. Achievements have created new expectations.

After today's training plan was distributed to Jiang Dongjian, Hu Li, and Su Bai, Su Bai did not ask them to follow the training plan to train immediately, but asked another question.

"Do you have any ideas of your own about the next improvement in grades?"

Hearing Su Bai's question, Hu Li and Zhang Wei were stunned for a moment, and then guessed that Su Bai might be trying to estimate their progress in grades?

Indeed, this kind of adjustment of the training plan and then making some predictions on the improvement of the athletes' training performance is something that all coaches will basically do, but it is difficult to say how accurate this kind of prediction is. Whether it is appropriate or not, and the actual effect of the athlete's training, these will affect the final training effect of the athlete.

Therefore, coaches usually do make a periodic evaluation of the improvement of athletes' performance, but this evaluation usually exists in the coach's own mind, and he will judge whether the athlete's training effect in the training cycle has reached his goal or not. Make judgments based on goals, so as to continuously adjust and update the training plan for athletes.

Zhang Wei and Hu Li looked at each other, and they were a little confused: What does their coach Xiaobai mean, is he going to report to them the estimated goals of their performance?

but……

If the coach initially reported the estimated performance improvement after the completion of the training period, but in the corresponding period, if their performance improvement fails to reach the expected state, wouldn't it dampen their training mood?

Not only Zhang Wei and Hu Li were worried, but Jiang Dongjian who was beside him was also a little worried. He was afraid that it might be because of Su Bai's lack of coaching experience, so he secretly stopped him. She nodded, but didn't intend to stop.

From the expressions of the three people present, Su Bai certainly knew what they were thinking. Still not convincing enough.

At present, Qiu Wen is the only one who can really say that he can wholeheartedly believe in him.

But this is far from enough.

Su Bai needs to establish his own coaching prestige so that Hu Li and Zhang Wei can better implement his training policy. Only in this way can his training plan be implemented most effectively.

To establish prestige, he must first let Hu Li and Zhang Wei trust him further.

Although the current Hu Li and Zhang Wei have some self-confidence because of his previous test, but this self-confidence is not enough. They are also willing to trust Su Bai, but this trust is not deep yet.

What Su Bai has to do now is to make Zhang Wei and Hu Li more convinced of his instructions through some seemingly impossible things.

For example now.

After careful consideration, Su Bai directly reported the training goals for Zhang Wei and Hu Li.

"What?! After one training cycle, the two achieved a time of 47 at the same time?!"

Both Zhang Wei and Hu Li were frightened by Su Bai's plan.

At the beginning of this year, both of them really hoped that within this year, even individuals could hit the national master level result of 47 seconds, but this is only 'in this year' and 'planned impact'.

There is a saying that is good, if the plan cannot keep up with the changes, who can guarantee that if they want to make an impact, their results will reach 47 seconds this year?

But Su Bai just said that, not only said that, but he also stretched the planned time to within one training cycle.

They have already glanced at the training plan in their hands. This is a monthly training plan, although the training content is different from their previous training content.

This plan has added a lot of special running training. In the past, in Zhang Wei's training plan, there would actually be 1-2 days dedicated to physical fitness training such as strength and endurance. However, in Su Bai's plan , the training time of 6 days a week, all have the training content of special running, in addition, there are some other differences in details.

Including Zhang Wei and Hu Li, although their respective training plans are similar, they are also different.

Even so, Hu Li and Zhang Wei still couldn't believe that with such a training plan, they could achieve a time of 47 seconds in just one month.

However, Su Bai's expression seemed so determined.

Could it be... In fact, the two of them do have good talents in the 400-meter event, but they haven't been able to realize their potential because of improper training in the past?

Both Zhang Wei and Hu Li were a little confused. After all, Su Bai's coaching ability and ability to discover talents had been verified by Qiu Wen, so after Su Bai gave the goal of the plan, including Jiang Dongjian Guilty, the first reaction is not complete disbelief, but just suspicion.

Su Bai didn't explain too much about this, he just showed the training plan in front of Zhang Wei and Hu Li again, and explained it again.

"Yes, our goal is to make your 1m time within 400 seconds within January. Of course, this goal is not easy to achieve, so I hope you can cooperate with my training plan to the maximum extent. , let’s do our best together in this training program.”

"On June 6th, there will be a grand prix competition in city z. I hope that you can set a new high in your personal sports career in the city z competition."

After listening to Su Bai's words, both Zhang Wei and Hu Li were in a daze. They thought that Su Bai was a very capable coach in the 400-meter event, but Su Bai could really make them achieve such a goal within a month. progress?

Not only Zhang Wei and Hu Li were skeptical, but Jiang Dongjian was also a little confused. He didn't know if Su Bai was just aggressive or if he was targeting Hu Li and Zhang Wei sincerely.

After Su Bai finished speaking, he didn't keep Zhang Wei and Hu Li any longer, but asked them to go to training immediately without thinking too much.

"Instead of doubting, why don't you put your heart and soul into trying for a month, and after a month, you'll know the answer, won't you?"

Su Bai's words stunned the three people present - yes, it will take about a month, and after a month, won't they know the answer?

Thinking of this, both Zhang Wei and Hu Li reluctantly calmed down, and turned to devote themselves to training.

After explaining to the two of them, Su Bai stared at Qiu Wen's training again, then immersed himself in recording all kinds of data in his hand, and began to write and draw continuously on the training plan form in his hand.

Beside Su Bai, after hesitating for a moment, Jiang Dongjian still asked Su Bai if the goal he set was true, but Su Bai didn't answer him this time, just smiled at him slightly.

In fact, Su Bai's approach this time does have some game elements, but it is also the most direct and effective way to mobilize the self-confidence and training status of Zhang Wei and Hu Li.

According to the plan, Su Bai was about [-]% sure that Zhang Wei and Hu Li could achieve their goals within a month, and the remaining [-]% ​​actually depended on Zhang Wei and Hu Li themselves.

That's why, after careful consideration, he still came up with the motivation method he has today.

In the evening, after the training in the afternoon, He Yishen and Zhao Heping also heard Jiang Dongjian relay Su Bai's training goal. The two of them were also a little surprised, and Jiang Dongjian asked them hesitantly whether this goal was really possible. When it was reached, He Yishen was silent for a moment, and answered the same sentence as Su Bai.

"Didn't Xiaobai say it? Whether it will work or not, the answer will be known in about a month. Let's just sit and wait and see."
