When the roster was announced for the first round, I didn’t have a particularly intuitive feeling.
Waiting until the second round, the promotion list on the screen can be displayed directly without scrolling.
Only then did everyone realize that more than half of the people had been eliminated in one morning.
There were a total of 120 participants, and now there are only 30 people left, with 10 people in each group, exactly three groups.
In this way, the afternoon game is particularly critical.
After another screening and elimination, you can basically identify the key candidates for promotion to the national competition!
Players who failed to successfully advance to the next round are devastated. Although the competition is held every year, it always makes people feel particularly disappointed if it stops here.
Everyone in the family and friends group looked at the list, looking carefully for their own people, as well as those familiar friends and outstanding players they followed, wanting to see if they had advanced and what their results were.
Those who find themselves eliminated can’t help but envy others.
But when everyone's attention turned from the personnel lists of the previous groups to the information of the promoted personnel of Group D, they were suddenly stunned!
"Wang Yiqi was eliminated!"
"Huh? Chef Wang? Then who won?"
"Isn't it? Wang Yiqi is very powerful. It's not like he worked hard last year."
Everyone present expressed disbelief after seeing Wang Yiqi being eliminated.
Especially the chefs at the restaurants who knew the inside story were even more stunned!
After all, everyone knows the inside story. When they were first grouped, Liu Yunong, Wang Yiqi and Xu Zhenbo were specially divided into three separate groups for the purpose of special care.
These three are all this year's seeded players and high-profile figures.
In fact, everyone has tacitly understood that these three will definitely be the members of the national competition team sent by this province this year.
Unexpectedly, there was an accident!
Xu Zhenbo was directly eliminated in the first round, while Wang Yiqi failed to survive the second round.
Isn't this incredible?
These three can be regarded as the best in this year's provincial competition.
Can they be eliminated?
Who did it?
After taking a closer look at the list of qualified candidates, I found that the winner of Group D in the second round was Fu Yu.
But Fu Yu was the one who eliminated Xu Zhenbo in the first round!
Who is this?
Everyone is really unfamiliar with this name.
Most of the players who come to participate in the competition every year are familiar faces, and many of them can even be regarded as familiar faces. There are occasionally newcomers, but they are few and far between, and they basically kneel down after the first round.
It’s true that no newcomer has ever been able to advance successfully in two consecutive rounds.
After all, once can be said to be luck, and twice can only be said to be strength.
Especially since the players in the same group both times were all pre-determined seed players.
Out of curiosity, everyone couldn't help but check the records of the two consecutive games.
When I saw this, I was immediately dumbfounded.
What happened this year?
Score so high?
Wang Yiqi’s score: 96 points.
Fu Yu’s score: 98 points!
no
Can this kind of score appear in the second round of the provincial competition?
Everyone looked at the score and it was incredible!
What is Fu Yu's background?
He was able to score a high score of 98!
For a time, there were divergent opinions and everyone was discussing everything.
At this time, not only the audience was talking a lot, but even the players in the players' rest area who had advanced but not advanced began to inquire curiously.
Who is that Fu Yu?
People from other groups were even more curious because they didn't have the opportunity to be exposed to Group D games.
You know, so far in other groups this year, there has not been a high score like 98!
Even Liu Yunong only scored 96 points. However, a dark horse also appeared in Group B this year. Lu Wen, the chef of Youpeng Restaurant, scored 94 points and successfully advanced.
It was indeed the first time for Lu Wen to participate in the competition, but he usually accompanied his chefs to compete every year.
It just so happened that this year, the best chef in the store had family matters and was unable to participate. One of the remaining two chefs had just resigned, and the other believed that his skills were not outstanding enough and refused to sign up for the competition.
Lu Wen really had no choice, so he signed up as a chef. It was natural that he would win in the first battle.
After all, being able to work as a chef at Youpeng Restaurant would be impossible only in a short while.
In comparison, Fu Yu's score of 98 was equivalent to coming out of nowhere and instantly attracted everyone's attention.
Even Lu Wen looked at the big screen curiously and took a closer look at Fu Yu's scores and personal information.
The number of 98 points was so eye-catching that Lu Wen, who originally entered the competition just to make up the numbers, had to pay attention to it now.
Although he had never participated in an official competition before, he attended the event almost every year and was familiar with several top figures in the circle.
Wang Yiqi is relatively well-known in the circles of this province. He is a cooking fanatic. He really loves cooking and his cooking skills are indeed good.
When Lu Wen was helping the chef in his store analyze his opponents, he once praised Wang Yiqi. He knew that this person was very strong in many skills!
Precisely because of this, he became even more curious about Yu.
Lu Wen had a good memory. He recalled that at the pre-match exchange meeting, Yao Shi, the chef of Chollima, introduced himself to everyone as Fu Yu's culinary skills.
Lu Wen met Yao Shi through a friend. They had dinner together. Although they didn't have the opportunity to interact often, they learned a lot about each other from their friends.
He is well aware of Yao Shi's power. He is a man who devotes himself wholeheartedly to his career and is very profit-oriented. It is certainly not easy for him to appreciate and recommend people.
The information on the screen shows that Fu Yu is only in his early twenties. He is so young. Is he really so powerful?
Although he had Yao Shi's approval, Lu Wen still didn't expect that Fu Yu could surpass him!
They are not competing in the same group, but the topics are the same and the judges are the same. The difference in scores is basically irrelevant.
Lu Wen is a very confident person, and this is a bit difficult to accept.
Out of curiosity, Lu Wen was not even in the mood to eat and just stayed in his seat. After the second cooking video became available online, he quickly found Fu Yu's video at that time and watched it carefully.
When a familiar friend came over to have a meal, Lu Wen declined with a smile: "You go ahead, I'll go after watching the video."
The companion nodded in understanding, turned and left.
When there were no outsiders around, Lu Wen took out his headphones and put them on, focusing on the video.
Only a few minutes after the cooking started, Lu Wen was shocked by Fu Yu's superb operation.
It is said that peers have a good grasp of the rules, but in terms of detailed operations, he could deeply feel the obvious gap!
It's not that Fu Yu deliberately showed off his skills. On the contrary, it was simple basic cooking, but it often reflected the level of his cooking skills.
Because real masters always have an overall layout when cooking and pay attention to control from beginning to end.
If you haven't reached a certain level of cooking, you won't be able to feel the difference at all.
The cooking operation in the video continued. The more Lu Wen watched, the more surprised he became, and the more he watched, the more he appreciated it.
While the sauce was being prepared, Lu Wen was dumbfounded.
Why does this technique look so familiar?
Seems like Liu Yunong?
At the pre-match exchange meeting, Lu Wen learned that Liu Yunong had also signed up to participate in the competition, so Lu Wen deliberately searched for a large number of cooking videos about the other party on the Internet.
In this year's competition, Liu Yunong is basically the strongest one.
Lu Wen never thought that he could surpass the other party. He just hoped that he would not be left too far and ugly.
Because of his careful observation, Liu Yunong had been active on the screen for a period of time in the past few years, so Lu Wen had a relatively good understanding of some of her cooking skills and habits.
Lu Wen noticed it almost when Fu Yu was halfway through.
Fu Yu's detailed operations in preparing the sauce are particularly similar to Liu Yunong's habitual movements.
But
It's not just an imitation. Compared with Liu Yunong's sauce preparation operation, Fu Yu is obviously slightly better!
Realizing this, Lu Wen looked more carefully.
Liu Yunong is his most valued opponent in this year's competition, and Fu Yu's method of operation is obviously the direction he has always wanted to achieve.
Lu Wen originally watched with the idea of learning from his master, but halfway through, he became more and more engaged and emotional.
Thinking back to the time when I had to sign up to compete in order to make up the numbers, I was still a little reluctant. I felt that it was a bit bullying to come here and compete with a group of chefs in my own capacity.
Looking back now, Lu Wen couldn't help but secretly feel lucky that he actually signed up for the competition.
Otherwise, I would not have encountered such a powerful opponent and observed such wonderful cooking operations.
In the cafeteria prepared by the event organizer, whether it was the contestants or the group of relatives and friends who came with them, the main topic that almost everyone talked about was Fu Yu.
The main reason is that Fu Yu’s conversational skills are so rich!
young!
handsome!
The first time I participated in the competition, the two pre-determined seed players were eliminated.
During the meal, everyone was gossiping about Fu Yu's personal information.
After finishing the meal, during the rare free time, everyone began to watch the videos of Fu Yu's previous games.
After reading it, get together to discuss and communicate, dig out and study detail by detail!
This is a cooking video rated 98 points, which is really rare!
It was also a very rare learning opportunity for everyone present.
Especially the players who have advanced to the next level are observing with special detail.
If you are unlucky and meet Fu Yu during the competition, you can at least understand the other party's cooking techniques and operating habits in advance.
Learn some meaningful experiences and operations through other people's cooking operations.
Sharpening one's weapons in battle is a waste of unpleasantness. Even if it doesn't have much effect, it can at least provide some psychological comfort.
While everyone was discussing cooking heatedly, Yao Shi and others were sitting in the corner talking quietly.
Liu Yunong and Fu Yu also joined in.
Liu Yunong could strike up a conversation with everyone present, both familiar and unfamiliar, but when he sat down, he specifically sat between Yao Shi and Fu Yu.
She listened to the conversations of the people around her, and her mood was a little complicated for a while.
Her performance today was obviously very good and worthy of the limelight, but no one mentioned it.
This inevitably made her a little disappointed.
But because the person being watched was Fu Yu, she felt particularly proud.
It's a pity that everyone obviously doesn't know that Fu Yu is their apprentice.
Before, I wanted to keep a low profile and have nothing to deliberately promote, but now I feel a little regretful.
If she had known earlier, she should have introduced everyone to everyone when she first arrived at the arena, so that she could be proud of herself.
Fu Yu was a little restless, and the glances of people next to him from time to time made him particularly uncomfortable.
Moreover, several of the chefs present were praising him. No matter how thick-skinned Fu Yu was, it was really hard to resist at this moment.
The most important thing is that just after the results of the competition were announced, he received another reward from the system.
This made him so worried that he couldn't stay there for a minute.
After finishing his meal quickly, Fu Yu said hello to Yao Shi and Liu Yunong, and avoided the rest area on the pretext of going to the bathroom.
At this time, almost everyone went to eat, and the rest area was very quiet.
Fu Yu dug out the mission reward he just received:
【Ding! Successfully qualified for promotion, eliminated Wang Yiqi, and received a reward: a copy of Mi Zhi’s personal skill learning experience]
Fu Yu didn't hesitate at all and directly chose to activate.
At this critical moment, learning one more personal skill will provide you with more protection.
With Wang Yiqi's lesson learned from the past, Fu Yu dared not underestimate the other contestants around him.
Luck cannot always be good.
We must go all out to win this game.
Originally, Fu Yu was determined to complete the system tasks and would be satisfied as long as he followed Liu Yunong and advanced to the national competition.
Now he finds that every time he advances, he can gain skills learning experience from his opponents. This makes Fu Yu immediately geared up, for fear that after passing this village, there will no longer be this shop.
You must seize this rare opportunity and learn a few more skills.
Fu Yu didn't want to watch it slip away from his hands.
With this idea in mind, Fu Yu couldn't help but study more seriously when he looked at Wang Yiqi's skills and experience.
Compared to Xu Zhang, Wang Yiqi's cooking skills and experience all come from cooking operations again and again, and everything extracted is the essence.
This is a chef who is extremely strict with himself, and his experience is particularly precious.
Fu Yu was immersed in the world of study. The way he lowered his head and remained silent seemed to outsiders that he was taking the opportunity to take a rest. Therefore, even if some people began to return to the rest area one after another, they did not come forward to disturb him for a while.
"Ding! Honey's personal skills have been upgraded to advanced levels!"
Fu Yu felt relieved and was not overjoyed.
Improving a personal skill to an advanced level does not mean that he has truly mastered the skill. The rest still needs to be understood slowly by himself.
The break is always very short. Soon, the host returns to the stage and announces that the drawing ceremony for the next round of competition will begin soon.
Fu Yu quickly stood up and found his group's position.
The three groups of qualified personnel have already sat in their respective group areas, waiting for the next game. (End of chapter)
