Chapter 15 "The Pride of a Soldier"
"Minister Huang, sorry, sorry, I rarely meet a high-quality player today. I am so happy at this time that I forgot about this."
The thin examiner beat up and moved the paper cup on the table to the middle-aged woman, suggesting: "This player has a very good seasoning level and is definitely capable of competing for the top few. It is very hopeful to win honors for our Shashi chef industry. Do you want to taste it?"
Middle-aged women are the deputy director of the Organization Department of Shashi Cooking Association. Although they are not a well-known figure in the Hunan cuisine industry, they still have some status here.
The thin examiner and the fat bald examiner are only senior members of the Provincial Cooking Association. Because they have good qualifications in the chef industry in Shashi, they received a special invitation from the organizer of "Top Chef" and became the judges of this Shashi audition.
The chef naturally has to be polite to the senior management of the cooking association.
"No need to try it. There are so many things to do when seasoning happen. I can't count it. I think I should take another round before I can make the final decision." Minister Huang refused the suggestion of the thin examiner mercilessly.
"But according to the registration and assessment regulations, this contestant has passed the test. Minister Liu, isn't it a bit like doing this..." The thin examiner has been in the cooking industry for nearly thirty years and knows the art of speaking very well. He did not tear his back in person, but instead used polite hints.
Minister Huang was not grateful, but was a little dissatisfied. He raised his tone and made a high-sounding defense: "Rules are dead, people live. Didn't you say just now that the contestants we selected this time are related to the honor of our Shashi chef industry. If some flashy and illusory people slip in..."
Speaking of this, Minister Huang pretended to pause and glanced at Xie Qingfeng below the audience with a bad look. The meaning of it was self-evident.
"That's our serious dereliction of duty. You should know that the top chefs have been held for five sessions so far. As one of the eight major cuisines, our Hunan Province has a rich food culture background, but we have not even won a championship. This is because our examiners have not kept a good job, which has caused a stain on our Hunan Province's cooking arts industry. This time we must strictly control the competition so that the contestants can get good results."
"This..." Minister Huang immediately raised the level to the entire Hunan cuisine cooking industry, which made the thin examiner feel that it was unreasonable. "Minister Huang, I know all of this, but your current behavior is to stop a good seedling, and he may have a chance...
"Old Liu, come and have a little tea." The fat bald examiner handed over the purple clay tea cup, interrupting the thin examiner's words, and still pulled the corner of his clothes with his left hand below.
The thin examiner wanted to argue with reason. After all, Xie Qingfeng's performance in terms of seasoning techniques, the chef's qualities shown, and the flavor of the broth he was finally prepared, really amazing.
However, in the face of Minister Huang's intentional squeak, coupled with the gaze of the fat bald chef's old friend, the middle-aged woman is the chief examiner here.
"Oh~" The thin examiner's words all turned into a helpless sigh.
Thinking back that the registration was just beginning, Minister Huang took away four audition pass cards, he said in his heart both anger and helplessly: "Xiang Province has not won the championship of top chefs every year, and has never even entered the top 15. It's not that I don't have a talented cooking skill in Hunan Province, but that some people are too heavy and have their eyes blackened by interests. It's so sad!"
The audition pass card is different from the registration identity card. The latter only means that you can participate in the audition competition. The former represents a quota in Hunan Province and can go directly to Shanghai to enter the audition rematch.
Xie Qingfeng saw the interaction between the three examiners and realized that this woman named Minister Huang seemed to be deliberately trying to deal with him in violation of the regulations.
Although I don’t know why this middle-aged woman “takes special care” for herself, Xie Qingfeng is still not afraid and is as stable as Mount Tai.
Holding a diamond in your hand, no matter how villains are!
"First of all, please don't get me wrong. I didn't mean to make things difficult for you. As the person in charge appointed by the Hunan Provincial Cooking Association, I have a heavy burden on my shoulders. I need a contestant with real cooking talent to win this honor for our Hunan Provincial Cooking Industry."
Minister Huang had no selfishness on his face, and only the only one who showed his righteousness was Lingran, who was willing to devote himself to the honor of the cooking industry in Hunan Province.
Xie Qingfeng is not a three-year-old child. He curled his lips and was too lazy to argue with her. He said bluntly: "What else do you have to take? Tell me."
Minister Huang looked at Xie Qingfeng in surprise, as if he was surprised by Xie Qingfeng's steadyness. The many words he had prepared had no place to vent, which made her feel extremely uncomfortable.
It's like preparing to punch it out with one punch, but finds that the opponent turns around and leaves with a cool look, and has no intention of fighting with you at all, making all your preparations become empty.
"It seems that this man has some information. If he doesn't come up with a difficult assessment, he will probably not be able to drive him away." Minister Huang thought quickly in his heart and soon came up with a solution.
Pick up an identity card that represents the successful registration. Put it on the table in front of Xie Qingfeng, and said with a smile: "There is an identity card that can participate in the audition competition. I will demonstrate the content of the knife skills assessment in the future. As long as you can achieve the level of my demonstration, you can take this identity card."
"Minister Huang, you have passed the national first-level technician assessment. It would be a bit too difficult to get a player to achieve your knife skills." The thin examiner is obviously straightforward. If you become a policeman, you will definitely be a straightforward type.
"Oh, I almost forgot that you are just a big pot dish chef from the army. You don't need any fine knife skills to make big pot dishes, which is really a bit difficult."
Minister Huang seemed to know that he was wrong, but the nostrils that almost lifted up to the sky showed the pride and pride in her heart.
"After all, I am a professional national technician. You definitely can't compare with me. In order to avoid others saying that I am bullying the small, I can give you a look, as long as you can get close to me."
"Close?" Xie Qingfeng raised his eyebrows disdainfully and said strongly: "I don't need this net, just follow your request."
"Good boy, I like your confidence. I am worthy of being a soldier. I have a sense of arrogance at heart, haha." The thin examiner's eyes lit up and he burst into laughter.
The fat bald examiner was also infected by Xie Qingfeng's confidence. He couldn't help but look at him with admiration. He suddenly felt strongly expecting Xie Qingfeng's next performance.
