Chapter 57 "Welcome to Hell Training Camp"
It's exactly 8 a.m.!
The live broadcast platform of Oriental TV was launched again, and the audience who entered the live broadcast room one after another found that the number of votes on the popularity ranking had returned to zero at this time, and all the players stood at the same starting line again.
During the first five "Top Chefs", no simultaneous platform live broadcast was started. This sixth session was to adapt to the technological changes of the times and to increase the simultaneous live broadcast of the competition for the first time.
The audience did not understand the rules of live broadcasts very well. The sudden change in the number of votes in the contestants made them surprised and sent out a series of barrage of inquiries.
Those sexy Wu Xiaomei, who were anxious and eager to reveal the first place in the popularity list, were so anxious that she felt uncomfortable.
I wish I could follow the live broadcast signal and catch the person in charge of the program team to ask clearly.
Fortunately, the program team had foresaw this situation for a long time and popped up a top link in time to specifically explain the relevant functions and mechanisms of popularity rules.
Generally speaking, there will be two lists. The first is the total list of popularity indexes. It will not appear on the live broadcast homepage, but will only always be in the second category of popularity paging.
The total list will accumulate the number of popular votes for the contestants. After winning the championship in the competition, the contestant with the highest cumulative number of popular votes will receive the "Popular Champion of the Year" medal certificate issued by the program team.
It is also awarded by the event organizing committee and represents the most popular "Popular Star Chef".
The second real-time popularity list corresponding to the mysterious privilege gift package is always displayed on the homepage and will be reset after each round of matches.
Each audience member will have a popular vote in each round of competition, which can change according to their preferences and vote for their favorite players in each round.
The purpose of the program team setting up this way is to allow viewers who only watch live broadcasts to increase the fun of live broadcast interaction when voting for favorite contestants and increase the traffic stickiness of the program through the audience's enthusiasm.
Moreover, this rule is relatively fair and will not lead the first place to the lead. Even if the players behind perform well in the next game, they will not be able to get the mysterious privilege gift package exclusive to the first place.
After making a clear look at the popularity index ranking rules, the audience who had already voted before began to get ready to see the contestants perform better.
The live broadcast platform has entered a high energy period again. Xie Qiushui, who is thousands of miles away, has completely lost the enthusiasm of yesterday today. Now he is still sleeping in the quilt.
My mouth was not chewing, and it seemed like I was eating some delicious meal in my dream.
The reason for this change is that Xie Qiushui is now in a state of conflict. She hopes that Xie Qingfeng can win the championship and move towards a smooth road of success in life, but she is also worried that after Xie Qingfeng's career success, she will be busy all day long and has no time to be with her anymore.
This mentality of worrying about gains and losses is a "commonity" that most women cannot escape.
But reality is not a fairy tale. A man has only one pair of hands and holds up the burden of the family, so he cannot hug his lover. If he hugs his lover in his arms, he cannot become the pillar of the family.
Xie Qiushui's current state seems to have found the third path to her—
Since you have supported your dream with both hands and can't hold me at all times, then I will free up my hands to hug you and quietly rely on your broad chest.
Now Xie Qingfeng is in the tense game, Xie Qiushui has no way to help Xie Qingfeng. He is worried and nervous, and he cannot eat well, sleep well, and does not work well every day, which has led to a sharp decline in his physical condition.
It’s better to live your own day, eat and sleep whenever you want, maintain yourself beautifully, wait for your sweetheart to return with victory and give you the most beautiful side.
Although Xie Qiushui's personality is very strange and versatile, she even has a little bit of a second-class personality, it has to be said that she thinks about some things more clearly than many women.
On the other hand, Zhang Dadong, who set out home, is Xie Qingfeng's first agent and future partner, but continues to pay attention to the competition situation on Xing Feng's side. While driving on the live broadcast on his mobile phone, he drives to the road.
You can not only pay attention to the situation of the competition, but also eliminate the boring long-distance driving, the best of both worlds.
The platform live broadcast was opened less than 5 minutes later, and three food judges representing different classes and standards strode from the door opposite the contestants.
All three judges changed into a set of clothes. Liu Yifan's high-end chef's suit turned into a fitted black suit. Zhou Huajian modified a jacket with casual jeans. Cao Kefan's Tang suit top style has not changed, but has changed from pink to bright red with light patterns.
Black face, white face, red face, perfect judging combination!
The contestants unanimously gave the warmest cheers and applauses to the arrival of the three food judges, and the brisk and joy in their hearts were also replaced by the pressure and tension brought by the judges after the arrival of the judges.
"Hell Training Camp" is the general name of the entire knockout competition, which is highly in line with the purpose of the "Top Chef" competition.
Replace hell training with rigorous competitions. Each game is a kind of training, aiming to cultivate a true top Chinese chef.
The 60 experts selected by the food judges are the students in this "Hell Training Camp". The first training competition they will conduct is the most important part of cooking - knife skills.
Quality and speed are indispensable. Those who meet the standards first get the pass. There are only 30 selected places in the entire competition and can enter the next stage of "Dream Kitchen".
The contestants here are all from the people, and most of them have not received professional chef training. Although there is no problem with basic knife skills, fine advanced knife skills have become a big problem for all contestants.
According to the experience of the past five competitions, the knife work event is often very terrifying, and it is entirely arranged according to what is the most difficult one.
The first whole chicken bone removal, the second Wensi tofu, the third silver needle shredded potatoes, etc.
Each type is not an ordinary person. The knife skills level that can be easily achieved by ordinary people. Even the last contestants selected in these five sessions have only barely advanced, and only a very small number can meet the standards.
Moreover, the competition takes a long time, the fastest one takes more than ten or twenty minutes, and the slowest one takes even one or two hours.
What ingredients will be tested today? Except for Xie Qingfeng, the contestants present were all nervous. Even the great-level contestant Yang Wei was not sure.
After all, knife skills cannot be achieved overnight, and it requires a long time of hard training. The players here are generally under 30 years old, so it is impossible to master too superb skills.
