Mondecar didn't think about anything now, and quickly moved the fork. He could tell that these people didn't seem to care much about the fish, but their mouths were still very honest.

Although this honesty is talking, it's just extra honest when it comes to food.

If it is said that Gu Bai's dishes make the judges like to give high marks, although this fact surprised the contestants, it was just a surprise. After all, such high marks are not unheard of, but Gu Bai's dishes made the judges continue to comment after finishing their comments. Eat it, of course because this dish can't be shared with other audiences, it's a waste if you don't eat it, but it also makes other contestants stunned.

Some contestants were seasoning, but they almost made mistakes when they saw this scene. After realizing that they almost made a mistake in seasoning, some contestants dared not continue to watch, distracting their attention. After all, there is nothing better than cooking their own dishes. important.

But those contestants who were temporarily idle all looked at the judges' actions, and their hearts sank. You must know that before Gu Bai, the judges only ate one bite of a dish, but with so many contestants and eating so many dishes, each of them would at least eat a bite. I'm half full.

If there is no Gu Bai, the judges may be full by the time they finish eating all the contestants' dishes, but with Gu Bai, the two crucian carps don't look too big, but the judges already ate a lot , If you eat these fish again, you will probably be full.

Even if he is not full now, he must be almost full after eating a few of the contestants' dishes, and the contestants who serve the dishes later will suffer more.

After all, eating a dish when people are not full or eating it when they are full will give people a different feeling. No matter how good the taste of the judges is, they are normal people and will be affected by emotions.

None of the contestants present were stupid, and they all reacted quickly. Those contestants who were about to do well were secretly relieved, and those contestants who were behind all became anxious, but no matter how anxious they were, they I didn't dare to speed up the cooking.

Because when cooking, you can't speed up if you want to speed up, and things will go wrong if you are not careful. I can only hope that the judges have a bigger appetite and don't eat a little to be full.

Then they saw that the judges actually picked up the cups to drink water. Now there is no difference between drinking water and eating. In a short period of time, they will make their stomachs grow bigger and feel full.

What they didn't know was that the judges drank water for them. The crispy roasted crucian carp dish was so delicious that after they finished eating it, the delicious sweetness remained in their mouths.

Although this felt good, the judges knew that this would definitely affect their judgment of the next dishes, so they drank more water to clear the taste in their mouths.

It’s just that their move quickly received feedback from the contestants. The previous contestants walked over steadily and looked very confident, while the latter contestants, the audience always felt that their walking speed was not right. It's a bit fast, and it's one after another, following very closely.

Gu Bai hadn't left yet. After he found that observing other chefs' cooking would inspire him, he stayed to watch the cooking process of other contestants. Although there will be a live broadcast to replay after the competition is over, obviously, it's better to watch more on the spot. nice.

And there is another advantage of being an audience, that is, you can get the chance to taste the contestants' works. Although there are so many audiences, the chance of falling on Gu Bai's head is very small, but Gu Bai's luck has been pretty good these days, and he has eaten ten Here comes the dish.

After watching the contestants’ production process and tasting the dishes, Gu Bai already knows the tricks. This is also the reason for Gu Bai’s progress in the past few days. After all, he didn’t have such an opportunity before. Many talented chefs.

And the contestants were different from the previous ones, Gu Bai also saw it in his eyes, after a little thought, Gu Bai guessed the reason, because this situation also happened before, but it was definitely not as obvious as today.

Is it his reason?

Although it's a bit cheeky to think so, but Gu Bai thought about it carefully, and found that the pot may really be on him, and I don't know if it's Gu Bai's illusion, the chefs behind him don't seem to get very high ratings , Not very satisfying to the judges.

Gu Bai didn't know whether the latter matter was his fault, and he didn't want to take it on. It's just that Gu Bai didn't want to take it on, but the other contestants had already given him the blame.

The contestants who stepped down before either stayed to watch the game, or left, at most they just paid attention to the contestants they knew, but now, Gu Bai felt that when two contestants stepped down, at least one of them would look towards him.

There wasn't much hostility in the gaze, but the gaze was so obvious that other people couldn't help but look in this direction, obviously curious about what so many players were looking at.

If it is an ordinary person, facing the eyes of so many competitors, not to mention emotional ups and downs, at least this game will be unbearable, but Gu Bai is very indifferent. I was about to leave after seeing the last player commenting.

Gu Bai is too calm, if the influence he caused is too obvious, the remaining contestants may not look at him again, but when they think of this, they can't help but look at Gu Bai .

Gu Chen and the others have noticed this, and they were still worried about Gu Bai. Although it has been almost three years and Gu Bai has undergone many changes, they still remember Gu Bai's fragility before, but after watching the development of the matter , found that they seemed to be a little too worried about Gu Bai, and Gu Bai was really much stronger.

Although this is the preliminary competition, the elimination rate is already frighteningly high. Among the more than 200 participating chefs, only 48 can pass. Because the competition of the day is divided into morning and afternoon, so among the dozens of contestants this morning, only Eight people can pass the preliminary round.

Gu Bai doesn't care whether he can pass or not, but the other players have to worry about it, especially some players whose scores are above average. Seeing that he can pass, he still has to worry about whether the rest of the players will overtake him , very nervous.

This preliminary competition alone has knocked down the arrogance of many first-time World Chef Competition contestants. Many people thought that they could get a good ranking after coming, and even fantasized that they could reach the sky in one step, but When I got to the arena, I realized how shallow my fantasy was.

Zhang Ping is not really proud. He also knew from Wang Xiuquan that the competition in the World Chef Competition is fierce. It's a bit bright, but not very good.

Zhang Ping was a little worried for Gu Bai when he was like this, and he was also very happy to see Gu Bai easily won the preliminary round with first place.

Back home, Gu Chen glanced at Li Yanchuan, and pulled Gu Bai to tell him what he saw in the morning. He told Li Yanchuan that he would talk to Gu Bai, but he couldn't do what he said.

After listening to Gu Chen's words, Gu Bai raised his eyebrows, and went straight to Li Yanchuan to find out. This is his habit of getting along with Li Yanchuan, because Gu Bai doesn't like to guess, too many guesses can easily affect the relationship between the two of them. , he likes the way of getting along with each other by explaining things clearly.

And Li Yanchuan also likes this way of getting along, after all, he is oblique when talking to people outside, and he doesn't like to get along with Gu Bai when he gets home.

Faced with Gu Bai's inquiry, Li Yanchuan explained his purpose very clearly. If he was not discovered, he wanted to be a person who silently helped Gu Bai and did good deeds without leaving his name. But if he was discovered, he would not Keep it from Gu Bai.

"If this matter will make you suffer, I don't want you to wrong yourself because of my matter." Although Li Yanchuan's words were about normal cooperation, Gu Bai still said seriously.

He has a better understanding of business matters than before, but it is limited to theoretical knowledge, and practice is still not enough. After all, business practice is also very troublesome, and it is easy to lose money, so Gu Bai did not try it.

But he knew that what Li Yanchuan did now was asking for others, and if he asked for others, he must pay something, Gu Bai didn't want to make Li Yanchuan suffer because of his own affairs.

Li Yanchuan nodded, and assured Gu Bai that he would not give in too much this time, it was just a normal business relationship, and would not give anyone an opportunity to make progress.

After Li Yanchuan said this, Gu Bai felt relieved, he knew that the promise Li Yanchuan gave him was true, and the other party would not lie to him.

Li Yanchuan, on the other hand, was afraid that Gu Bai would not believe him, so he carefully explained to Gu Bai that he really would not let him suffer, after all, in the mall, if he asked people to do things, the more he gave in, the more It is easy for people to take advantage of it, and it is a small matter at a high price. It is easier to handle normal negotiations.

In particular, Gu Bai's performance today was good enough to make it difficult for the other party to handle it.

The reason is also very simple. At most, he guessed that Li Yanchuan wanted Gu Bai to get good grades in a fair environment, but it was hard to think that Gu Bai wanted to win the championship. After all, Gu Bai was still too young, and it was his first time. To participate in the World Chef Competition, most people would never have imagined that Gu Bai's goal is so high.

As for the members of the Huaguo team, they knew about it, but they would not tell anyone before Gu Bai succeeded. The pressure is even greater, if this matter is known to others, and Gu Bai does not succeed, before Gu Bai succeeds, he will probably be ridiculed.

And if the goal is too high, it is easy to be tripped up secretly. After all, the first place is only one place, even if it is the top three, there are still two places that can be competed for.

After being explained by him like this, Gu Bai felt more at ease.

And things did go as Li Yanchuan predicted. Bernard did not expect Gu Bai to set his goal so high. For the champion, the other dozen contestants won the championship at least twice.

The requirement to win the championship for the first time in the competition is really too high. You must have a culinary skill that surpasses the crowd. But under normal circumstances, it is impossible for a chef with this kind of culinary skill to grow up within three years. They all grow up slowly. , so it is inevitable to participate in a World Chef Competition first.

Of course, it does not rule out the kind of existence that wants to be a blockbuster, but they have never competed with other people and have no experience in participating in competitions. As a result, no matter how high their ranking is, if they don't get the first place, it is a failure.

Under such speculation, especially after discovering that Gu Bai's cooking skills are very high, even if he did not let the judges change their minds, Gu Bai still conquered the judges with his own strength, Bernard naturally did not dare to take it too seriously.

After all, Li Yanchuan may need his help in the World Chef Competition, but his family asks the other party for other things. Comparing the importance of the two sides, Bernard quickly made a decision. Misjudged.

Of course, it's not that he's not smart, it's just that the World Chef Competition is in the game, if he doesn't make a decision quickly, the game will end soon, and it will be too late to make a decision after he sorts everything out.

If Li Yanchuan's purpose was revealed some time before the game, he would have more time to think about it, but now, he can only make a quick decision.

However, the reason why he made such a decision so quickly is not only Li Yanchuan, but also because he has this idea. He is not satisfied with the current situation of the World Chef Competition. He wants to change, but he is getting older. The control over the association is not as strong as before, but with the temptation of Li Yanchuan's interests ahead, it is easier to change.

After all, there is no good thing, even if the change will make others better, but it is not good for oneself, and the association does not want to do it, but it must be done if it is good, if they are not allowed to do it, they will not do it .

Bernard is very clear about the psychology of other people in the association, so once the matter was revealed, after an urgent discussion, there was no way it was not urgent, and the second rematch of the individual event was about to begin.

Although based on the information they collected, Gu Bai's culinary skills are still very high, and he should not be eliminated in the rematch, but if he encounters a judge who lowers his score because of unspoken rules, Gu Bai's score will be lowered Wouldn't it be bad if Gu Bai was eliminated?

If Gu Bai was eliminated because of lack of strength, Li Yanchuan should have nothing to say, but if he was eliminated because of some unspoken rules in the game, or the unspoken rules hinted by the other party and them, then it would be up to the other party to cooperate with them. It's hard to say.

After all, the relationship between Gu Bai and Li Yanchuan is not simple. His beloved partner has been wronged, and he even cooperates with the culprit who made his partner wronged. According to the information they found, Li Yanchuan probably won't cooperate.

Everyone looked at each other, and they could see the worry in each other's eyes.

If Bernard alone wanted to promote this matter, it would be quite difficult, because he would encounter a lot of resistance, but now, most people have agreed to this matter, and the arrangement will naturally go smoothly.

However, it is not possible to use real reasons for things to be arranged. It is too naked. In order to maintain the fairness of the World Chef Competition, the reason for the arrangement is to discover a little bias in the comments of the World Chef Competition over the years. In order to change these prejudices for The fairness of the game was harmed, so it was arranged in this way.

Originally, the association wanted to change after three years, but three years is too long, and now the competition has just begun, so it is not too late to change.

These words are high-sounding, but it really shocked many judges who didn’t know the truth. As judges, they also felt a little problem in the World Chef Competition, too much pursuit of internationalization, which is good and bad for cooking. , At the beginning, it was mostly good, but later on, it became more and more politically correct, and on the contrary, it appeared a little distorted.

Although some people thought whether to point out Gu Bai specifically for Li Yanchuan, after some discussion, they gave up this idea, because Li Yanchuan made it very clear that he wanted Gu Bai to compete in a fair environment, whether it was to make him more Worse or better is not fair.

Besides, they also know that Gu Bai's culinary skills are quite high, if it is more biased towards him, what if the other party gets the top three rankings.

Although the importance of the top three is still not the highest, after all, No.1 is the name that will be remembered by everyone, and it also involves the location of the next World Chef Competition, but the top three are also very important, even if it is Wanting to gain benefits, they also don't like Gu Bai, an oriental guy who won the top three places.

From their understanding, Gu Bai's strength is very strong, there is no problem in winning the top ten, or even the top six are possible, and the fourth to tenth is the range they can accept.

The change of the judges is very obvious. For the next group event, there is a relatively small change in the internationalization of the dishes made by one team. In the previous competitions, the scores of such dishes are obviously worse, but the judges gave Compared with before, the score is obviously a little more.

This situation made the team a little dazed. They impulsively made this decision with the idea of ​​participating in the competition for the last time. Unexpectedly, they were treated fairly.

Not only them, but even the other participating teams were stunned. After all, which contestant hadn't thought about such a thing, and had to endure it just for the sake of points.

But now, this trend seems to have changed.

If the team competition goes to the end, just because of this matter, many chefs may make mistakes. Although this matter seems to be similar to what happened to Gu Bai, the people present It can be seen that the judges made an exception not because of how well the team did.

Because even if there are more dishes in the team meal, the judges are unlikely to finish them all, but if they like it, at least they will eat more, but the judges taste the same portion as before.

What this means is very different.

Wang Xiuquan and his team had their team competition this afternoon, and they were all preparing in the waiting room at this time, but while preparing, they also watched the live broadcast of the competition and kept an eye on the news of the competition.

Although Gu Bai won't participate in the team competition with him, he just doesn't go to the arena of the team competition. Given his mastery of Chinese food, he will still discuss with him. Naturally, he also saw this scene in the live broadcast.

When Wang Xiuquan and the others were still excited and confused, Gu Bai thought about Li Yanchuan's matter. Although he guessed that the other party's actions would be very fast, he did not expect the change to come so quickly.

Gu Bai was a little puzzled, the efficiency of doing things overseas that he said was poor, and the speed was slow, it only took two days, and the change was so fast.

Gu Bai didn't know, according to the general efficiency, it would be slow to change, but who let the temptation of benefits given by Li Yanchuan conquer most people, under the guidance of benefits, it will naturally be done quickly.

In addition, some of the judges originally had the idea of ​​changing, but it was too blatant to do so because of the unspoken rules. Now that the upper echelons of the association think so, what are they waiting for if they don't make changes.

The competition ended soon, and the changes of the judges were also discovered by the reporters. Soon, some reporters went to interview the judges and asked why they had such changes. As reporters who followed the interview all the way, the judges The changes are indeed noticeable.

Regarding this question, the judges have already prepared for it. This is also the explanation given by the association that held the competition after they asked them to change. If you encounter an interview, you can follow those words.

The judges brought out the original words given by the association that held the competition. After all, he could only quote the original words, otherwise he would agree to offend other colleagues. The reporter was very surprised by these words. Not everyone has the courage to face them directly. It really takes a lot of courage to say such things about one's own flaws, especially when the World Chef Competition has been held to such an extent.

But Wang Xiuquan and the others were all dumbfounded. They stared straight at the live broadcast, and it took a while to recover and cheered.

Not only were they cheering, but even the contestants who were listening to the interview couldn't suppress their inner excitement, and they were extraordinarily active.

Wang Xiuquan and the others were happy for a while and thought of an important question. They had prepared dishes in advance for the team competition in the afternoon. Although they prepared a few more plans to avoid accidents, they were all aimed at internationalization. of.

If they didn't know about it, then they would not feel that there was anything wrong with doing it like this. This is also a kind of compromise and change, all for the sake of winning, there is no way.

But now, if they still use the original plan, they don't know what choices other teams will make, but when they do this, they really can't pass the test in their hearts. For a while, the lounge became quiet again.

Finding that the surrounding area was unbelievably quiet, several people raised their heads and looked at each other, realizing that the other party probably had the same thoughts as themselves, they couldn't help but sighed, and looked at Gu Bai in unison, they are a little bit able now. He understood Gu Bai's thoughts at that time.

It would be safe not to change it. After all, the judges said that they must not be biased and recognize the unique food cultures of all countries in the world. However, international food must still be very popular. If they do not change, they will not lose anything. At most, they will be recognized Say something.

If you change it, the time is too tight. It will be noon, and the game will be in the afternoon. If you cancel the carefully conceived dishes and make some dishes in a hurry, it is easy to go wrong, but the results are not good, but you don’t change it If so, they are really not reconciled.

They didn't change it before because their grades would be worse if they changed it, but now they are all on the same starting line, and if they don't change it, they can't get over this hurdle in their hearts.

In fact, this entanglement is not limited to the Huaguo team. After discovering that the judges’ standards have changed, many teams participating in the team competition have begun to tangle. Who doesn’t want to make their own country’s unique dishes in international competitions, and then beat the crowd? To win glory for the country.

But the previous judgment made them dare not do this, and now they have the opportunity, should they do it?

Doing it is tantamount to abolishing the previous plan and starting a new stage. It may be good or bad, and it is not safe to do it, but...

Even if there are many benefits of not doing it, many teams have no way to make up their minds.

And the teams that participated in the team competition in the morning were all sad, even the team with the highest score. It is happy to get high scores, but the dishes with high scores are not special dishes of their own country. This is a bit disappointing.

If everyone is like this, that's okay, and you can use high scores to comfort yourself, but other teams can change, and they have already finished the competition and can't change it, which makes people very sad.

If this is some kind of championship match, that's okay, but it's just a preliminary match, so I can't let it go.

This was the first time since the World Chef Competition was held that the team with the highest score had an ugly face and a bad mood, and even the contestants who hadn't competed sympathized with them.

After struggling for a long time, Wang Xiuquan and the others still made a decision. They want to cook pure Chinese food. Some of them may participate in the World Chef Competition this time. It will be a lifetime regret for them.

Of course, they are not completely impulsive. For pure Chinese food, a few people are confident that they will not make mistakes even if they suddenly change the dishes. This is the confidence of the old chef.

However, they also discussed it. If there is a failure, it would be better to directly push the reason to them, the old chefs. It is said that they want to make changes impulsively. Young people like Zhang Ping can't stop them at all. .

"Master..." Zhang Ping didn't want to do this. He knew very well that if the team really lost in the preliminary round, this would be the biggest loss for the Huaguo team in these years, and people in the chef circle would definitely start looking for the reason for the failure. .

If they were allowed to put the reason on Wang Xiuquan and the others, then Wang Xiuquan and the others would lose their reputation for a while, even if the other party was a bit older, it was still not to the extent that they didn't care about these things at all.

"Okay, you young people can't handle these things, and we can only let the older generation carry them. Even if you say you want to change and force us to make changes, will others believe it?" Wang Xiuquan comforted Zhang Ping and asked a question.

Zhang Ping was speechless, the logic of the matter is really like this, it's just...

Seeing Wang Xiuquan's firm gaze, Zhang Ping opened his mouth, but still didn't say anything, but his heart was a little heavy.

They talked so vigorously that Gu Bai had no choice but to intervene. Finally, when the others stopped talking, Gu Bai hurriedly said, "Can't we use the dishes from the previous training camp?"

What Gu Bai was referring to was the dishes from the training camp some time ago. Unlike the individual events, the cooking theme of the team competition was actually announced when they signed up, so they all tried to cook it during the training camp.

Gu Bai's words immediately stunned everyone, while Wang Xiuquan and Zhang Ping's tears trembled, feeling that their tears seemed a little silly.
