At the scene, the restless audience was finally suppressed by Li Ruyue.
Although everything that happened before her was beyond her expectation, Li Ruyue still tried her best to help Jiang Wantong make amends.
She asked Jiang Wantong before the camera:
"Contestant No. 10, do you have anything to say about this video? If you have been wronged, you can speak out on the spot and we will give you justice."
Jiang Wantong said hurriedly:
"This video was manipulated. It was Hu Xianlin who came to me and said he could let me win the championship as long as I stayed with him for one night...it was not me who seduced him."
Hu Xianlin slammed the table and said angrily:
"Miss Jiang, don't talk nonsense. Do I, Hu Xianlin, need to do this?"
Zhao Mingyu immediately helped:
"Master Hu has been a judge for so many years and has a very high status in the food industry. How could he risk being cursed and accused to do such a thing?"
"Everyone can think carefully about who has gained the most from this matter and who is the most likely. Miss Jiang, I think you are no longer qualified to participate in the competition."
When the already angry audience heard this, they immediately raised their fists and shouted:
"Jiang Wantong withdraws from the competition!"
"To retire!"
"You are not qualified to participate in the Master of Chef Competition, get out now!"
Zhang Dachuan sat in the audience, watching everything that happened in front of him, his expression cold and his heart filled with anger.
He didn't expect that Hu Xianlin would be so shameless and dare to beat him up in such a situation.
However, it is absolutely impossible for them to give up and withdraw from the competition just like this.
Zhang Dachuan understands Jiang Wantong. Although she looks weak, she is actually a very strong woman. The more difficult she is, the less likely she is to admit defeat.
Under such a situation, only by winning the championship with absolute strength can Jiang Wantong silence everyone's mouths and vent their bad breath!
The commotion at the scene lasted for a full five minutes.
For five minutes, Jiang Wantong just stood there, listening to everyone yelling angrily without saying a word.
When everyone had finished scolding, Li Ruyue took a deep breath, walked back to the stage, and said to everyone:
"Everyone, calm down. In fact, from my professional perspective, the video just now does have traces of artificial editing, and it is very obvious. We have asked the technical team to analyze it, and the analysis results will be released by then. Come out and let everyone check.”
"So, please be patient and let the bullets fly for a while, and let us finish the game, okay?"
However, Li Ruyue's words could not completely convince the audience. Some people were still clamoring.
At this time, a heavyweight came onto the stage from below and took Li Ruyue's microphone.
Seeing the person coming, the scene immediately became quiet.
Because the person who suddenly came to power was none other than Xu Jinnuo, the director of Bailong City TV Station.
With his sophistication, he actually noticed the problem as soon as the video appeared. The reason why he kept silent was actually because he had his own considerations.
Ratings are one thing, but testing the ability of Li Ruyue, an outstanding junior, is another.
Xu Jinnuo looked around and said to the audience and the camera:
"Dear audience friends, I can 100% assure you that the video just played was definitely edited by humans. Therefore, please don't be too impulsive. Let us watch the game patiently. The rest will wait until after the game. Say it again."
"It is not easy for the MasterChef Competition to reach this point. Every contestant who reaches the finals is a dream chaser with their own dreams. Now that the competition has begun, as long as the contestants themselves do not withdraw from the competition, they can continue to compete."
Xu Jinnuo's words temporarily suppressed the dissatisfied voices at the scene, and the entire live broadcast site returned to silence.
Xu Jinnuo turned around and asked Jiang Wantong seriously:
"No. 10 Jiang Wantong, do you want to continue?"
Jiang Wantong raised her head and looked at Zhang Dachuan subconsciously.
Zhang Dachuan nodded to her, his eyes full of encouragement and affirmation.
Jiang Wantong faced Xu Jinnuo with firm eyes and said:
"want."
Xu Jinnuo didn't say anything more, returned the microphone to Li Ruyue and left.
Li Ruyue took a deep breath and announced to everyone calmly:
"The finals of the Master of Chef Competition officially begin now."
…
In order to ensure that every dish eaten by the judges is freshly cooked, the finals of the MasterChef Competition have optimized the competition method.
The ten contestants in the finals will go on stage to cook in the order of their respective draws. Each person will cook for half an hour, but their cooking will be staggered by ten minutes. The whole competition lasts two hours.
As contestant No. 1 came on the stage, the finals officially kicked off. Both the contestants at the scene and the judges on the stage quickly put aside the previous farce and devoted their bodies and minds to the competition.
Amidst the sizzling sounds, Chef No. 1 waved the spatula attentively and seriously, putting ingredients into the pot one after another.
The fragrance filled the playing field, making everyone forget their previous unhappiness.
In particular, when the Long Xiang Pork was put into the pot, a strong aroma of pork quickly enveloped the entire arena and aroused the greed of many people.
Someone immediately drooled and sighed:
"As expected of Long Xiang Pork, I just smelled it and felt it was so fragrant. I didn't know how delicious it would be in my mouth."
Another person immediately echoed: "I really want to be a judge, so I can eat so many delicious meals."
As soon as he finished speaking, someone suddenly said, "Sir, have you forgotten the Nine-turn Large Intestine?"
These words immediately caused a burst of laughter, and the atmosphere at the scene became harmonious again.
Soon, contestant No. 1 completed his work and was sent to the judges' table for tasting and scoring.
Everything was just as Hu Xianlin said to Jiang Wantong.
As the oldest judge, he was indeed the first to eat and score first.
The other four judges were all followers who acted based on his looks.
Hu Xianlin gave No. 1 eight points. Seeing this, the other four people immediately gave them scores of eight to eight point five.
In the end, No. 1 scored 42.5 points.
A passable score.
When Zhao Mingyu saw this, he immediately said warmly:
"It seems that after entering the finals, our judges were very careful in their scoring. They were much more cautious than in the knockout rounds."
"However, it is already very good for player No. 1 to get such a score, because just smelling the fragrance of Longxiang pork makes me drool. It can be said that without the blessing of Longxiang pork, he might You can’t get such a score.”
He was originally responsible for promoting Longxiang pork at Liu Chenghao's advantage, so when he opened his mouth, he advertised Longxiang pork everywhere in his words.
It's a pity that because of his own strength, Zhao Mingyu's advertisement was quite blunt and embarrassing.
But there is no doubt about the aroma of Longxiang pork.
At this time, the audience all looked expectantly at Xu Zhongmin in the special guest seat.
As a special guest, Xu Zhongmin's opinions are more important than those of Hu Xianlin and the other five.
