Zhou Shijie's slightly excited voice came from the phone, which made Yuan Zhou more puzzled.
"This good news is also an inside information." Zhou Shijie said immediately.
"Then tell me, what's the impact?" Yuan Zhou asked immediately.
"Of course it's okay. Anyway, you are also one of the participants." Zhou Shijie felt warm in his heart and said with a smile.
"Okay. Go ahead." Yuan Zhou nodded and then said.
"The people from Michelin came last year. Do you know about this, Yuan?" Zhou Shijie kept Yuan Zhou guessing and asked.
"Yes, I know." Yuan Zhou said cooperatively.
Although he was answering in cooperation with Zhou Shijie, Yuan Zhou had basically guessed it in his heart.
"The people from Michelin didn't come to our Sichuan Province last time. They went straight to Shanghai, so I didn't tell you." Zhou Shijie explained a little.
"Um." Yuan Zhou answered lightly, indicating that he got it.
Indeed, it was Chu Xiao who told Yuan Zhou about the Michelin coming to Huaxia last time. Zhou Shijie really didn't tell him.
"Those foreigners looked down on Sichuan Province last time, but they still came this time." Zhou Shijie said proudly.
"You said the people from Michelin would come to my restaurant this time." Yuan Zhou said affirmatively.
"You are sometimes as smart as a monkey, but sometimes you are not at all. Yes, they will come to your restaurant to give you a star rating." Zhou Shijie said smilingly.
"It's easy to guess." Yuan Zhou said.
"Okay. Let's not talk about this. Let's get down to business. The main thing this time is that firstly, our Village Chef's Activity is so big. Secondly, the news about you hanging your shingle has spread far and wide. The head chef of the Snack House even specially sent a manuscript to congratulate you." Zhou Shijie continued unhurriedly, "I don't know how Michelin knew about it. They just said they would come to Sichuan Province to give a star rating."
"Yuan, you are very famous now. Even the name of some small stars is not as good as your name in Sichuan Province." Zhou Shijie teased him smilingly.
"Um." Yuan Zhou answered from time to time to show that he was listening carefully.
"Not only your restaurant, but also several other places. Shu Restaurant is also in the evaluation this time." Zhou Shijie really didn't treat Yuan Zhou as an outsider. Thus, he directly told Yuan Zhou all the news that he hadn't released yet.
The Michelin selection had always been conducted in secrecy. However, there were not many secrets left in the selection process. Those who should know still knew it.
However, those who were chosen usually didn't know about it. After all, if they were chosen, it would also be a sign that Chinese dishes were recognized. Therefore, Zhou Shijie wouldn't specially ask others to do so. Forcing people to choose their dishes was a sign of ability.
This was the style of the older generation of chefs. Of course, Yuan Zhou was an exception. He was a special case. He told the news just to make Yuan Zhou happy.
After all, the public in Europe and the United States had never recognized Huaxia's cuisine, which made the older generation of chefs like Zhou Shijie very dissatisfied.
After listening to Zhou Shijie's words, Yuan Zhou fell silent for about a minute and then said, "Chairman Zhou, can I ask you for a favor?"
This time, Yuan Zhou used a very formal title to call Zhou Shijie. It was the first time that they had been familiar with each other.
"Call me Uncle Zhou." Zhou Shijie said discontentedly.
"All right, Uncle Zhou." Yuan Zhou was slightly helpless, but he still complied with Zhou Shijie.
"That's right. If you have something to say, just say it. You don't need to be so solemn." Zhou Shijie didn't care about that and took on everything.
"Here's the thing. I don't want to take part in the Michelin's evaluation." Yuan Zhou thought for a while and then directly said his idea.
"Why?" Zhou Shijie didn't react for a while and then asked directly.
"First of all, Michelin makes tires. Second, they only evaluated Western cuisines before, while I cook Chinese cuisines. Do they know anything about Chinese cuisines?" Yuan Zhou said bluntly and straightforwardly.
Zhou Shijie thought for a while and then nodded, "That's true."
"So, Uncle Zhou, can you help me get out of the evaluation this time? I refuse to participate in the Michelin evaluation." Yuan Zhou said firmly.
"Okay. You are right. Those foreigners don't know anything about Chinese cuisines. They are just eating and serving." Zhou Shijie said along with Yuan Zhou and then agreed to the request.
"Then, I will have to trouble Uncle Zhou." Yuan Zhou thanked him earnestly.
"It's nothing. But do you really not want the honor?" Zhou Shijie asked again.
"It's not a big deal to me." Yuan Zhou said affirmatively.
"That's true. You still have a long future ahead of you. You really don't need to care about it." Zhou Shijie thought for a while and then nodded.
"Um." Yuan Zhou didn't be modest this time and directly answered.
"Okay. You are about to open your restaurant. Next time I come to your restaurant for a meal, you have to prepare something delicious for me." Zhou Shijie said.
"No problem." Yuan Zhou said straightforwardly.
"Okay. You don't have to worry about this matter anymore. I will deal with it." Zhou Shijie said.
"Okay. Sorry to trouble you, Uncle Zhou." Yuan Zhou thanked him again.
"Call me Uncle Zhou. It's not a big deal." Zhou Shijie said smilingly and then hung up the phone.
"Michelin? Forget it. "Yuan Zhou put down the phone and snorted.
Yuan Zhou would never admit that he was a narrow-minded person. He would be dissatisfied with the matter of Michelin not entering Sichuan last time. He, Yuan Zhou, was not a narrow-minded person.
He really felt that Michelin was not qualified to evaluate Chinese cuisines. They didn't know anything about Chinese cuisines. What was there to evaluate?
However, it was undeniable that Yuan Zhou, who rejected Michelin, began to prepare breakfast in a refreshed manner. Moreover, he was very fast. Even the regret of his leave being rejected had dissipated.
My goal is to become a Master Chef. In the future, I will make a selection that is more awesome than Michelin. It will be called the Yuan Zhou Selection. Yuan Zhou's heart was filled with fighting spirit. His hands moved even faster, almost leaving afterimages.
Yuan Zhou would not admit that he chose the four words "Yuan Zhou Selection" because of narcissism. He just felt that using the name to name it was clear and easy to remember. That was all.
Otherwise, when people heard about the Contradiction Literature Award and the Hua Luogeng Mathematics Award, they would naturally know what they were for. In the future, when people heard that it was the Yuan Zhou Selection, they would naturally know that it was for selecting chefs.
After determining a small goal, Yuan Zhou remembered that he had not opened the door. He quickly wiped his hands and went to open the door. After opening the door, he greeted them and went back to the kitchen to cook.
Today's breakfast was a new one. It was the Pig Intestine Noodle Soup. He still needed to carefully prepare it.
"I smell something that I have never smelled before. It smells so good." As soon as he opened the door, Yuan Zhou, who left after saying hello, did not notice that the diners were secretly sniffing the restaurant, trying to know what was for breakfast today.
Of course, there was an exception. That was Wu Hai. He had already leaned against the door and stretched his neck. He almost walked in directly.
