Since Zhang Yan said so, Hang Tian found it inappropriate to ask further. After some small talk, he went to chat with other chefs.
However, Collin didn't leave. He was still standing beside Zhang Yan.
"What has he learned recently?" Collin asked with a solemn expression.
"Master Ke, are you talking about Yuan?" Zhang Yan turned his head and asked.
"Um." Collin nodded his head and didn't say much.
"He's still researching new dishes recently. It's said that he has already developed a new snack." Zhang Yan didn't conceal anything and told him everything.
Although Zhang Yan wanted Yuan Zhou to stay in Sichuan Cuisine, as Zhou Shijie said, if he forced Yuan Zhou to stay in a certain cuisine, it would be a waste of God's gift and Yuan Zhou's talent.
Therefore, after the "friendly negotiation" between Zhou Shijie and Zhang Yan, Zhang Yan had already thought it through. He wouldn't put any pressure on Yuan Zhou and just let him learn whatever he wanted. He hoped that he could reach higher heights. This was the policy that the chairman of Sichuan Cuisine Alliance and the whole Chefs' Alliance had set for Yuan Zhou.
Therefore, Zhang Yan didn't conceal anything from Collin and told him directly.
"This brat has a big appetite." Collin snorted coldly.
"Yuan is still young and always wants to try more dishes. Recently, he has developed some new dishes," Zhang Yan said.
"Don't you care about it?" Collin looked at Zhang Yan and asked with puzzlement.
This naturally included Zhou Shijie. After all, Collin and Zhou Shijie also knew each other.
"Young people should be allowed to spread their wings and fly high. We can't restrict their wings," Zhang Yan said with an enigmatic expression.
This time, Collin didn't answer him. Instead, he turned his head and said to his son, Ke Sen, "Don't be too ambitious and try to learn from Yuan. Dadada, study the dishes in your hands well. Don't compare yourself with that brat. He's not a human."
"Yes, master." Ke Sen nodded seriously.
"Master Ke, you're too strict." Zhang Yan looked at Collin and then at Ke Sen.
Zhang Yan was naturally referring to how Ke Sen addressed Collin.
Almost all the older generation knew that Ke Sen was Collin's son, but Collin never allowed Ke Sen to call him father in front of others.
In the kitchen, he even asked Ke Sen to call him head chef, but in front of others, he would just call him master.
This was because Ke Sen had officially become Colin's disciple, even if they were father and son.
"Being strict is a basic requirement for a chef," Colin said. "That kid is the epitome of that."
"Master is right." Ke Sen nodded his head at the side. It was a good example to learn from Yuan Zhou!
"Teacher is to me. He's Zhou is me. more old-fashioned than me.
Fortunately, their conversation didn't last long. The host announced the official start of the Cuisine Exchange.
Speaking of which, Zhang Yan and Zhou Shijie both made a huge mistake. They didn't ask Yuan Zhou about the Cuisine Exchange at all.
If they had asked Yuan Zhou, he would have come according to his current requirements. Look at the older generation, they were basically the top talents of each cuisine.
If Yuan Zhou came, the system's task could be completed in an instant.
However, Yuan Zhou didn't know about this at all. At this time, Yuan Zhou was in the middle of opening his restaurant.
The discussion went very smoothly. Although the older generation present were old and some had even retired from cooking, they still talked endlessly about their culinary skills.
They didn't forget to compare the new young chefs of their cuisines. Every time this happened, they would ask the young chefs to say a few words.
When it was Colin's turn, he naturally talked about the Guizhou cuisine and also mentioned Ke Sen who was behind him. But right after that, he talked about Yuan Zhou's matter.
Therefore, when it was Zhang Yan's turn to speak, the others couldn't help but speak. The first one to speak was the Huaiyang Cuisine Master Hang Tian, "Show us the video brought by Chairman Zhang."
"That's right. Master Ke rarely praises someone so much," said the Cantonese Cuisine Master.
"Exactly. The younger generation loves to surf the Internet. There is news on the Internet. It's said that Yuan is also very famous on the Internet," the Huaizhou Cuisine Master nodded and said.
"Last time, Tengyuan Jiayuan was admired by Yuan's cooking. It's a pity that I wasn't in the country at that time. Otherwise, I could have seen how dazzling the Steamed Rice with Anchovies was," said a Shanghai Cuisine Master.
"Boss Yuan's performance in the Sino-Japanese Chef Exchange was indeed very eye-catching," said Li Minghui, who represented Zhou Shijie to participate in the Cuisine Exchange.
Li Minghui naturally represented Shandong Cuisine.
"Minghui, you participated in the Sino-Japanese Chef Exchange with Yuan," the Shanghai Cuisine Master nodded and said.
"Yes." Li Minghui nodded.
Then, they urged him a few more times. Only then did Zhang Yan stand up with the USB flash drive and say, "This is the internal exchange video of our Sichuan Cuisine. I contributed some real food today."
Zhang Yan handed the USB flash drive to the staff member who was in charge of the projection at the side with a smile and then said with a smile.
"Which of us didn't contribute real food? You are the only one who knows how to ask for credit." Naturally, it was the older generation of chefs who spoke.
They were all from the same generation, so they had a lot to say.
"This video was taken when Yuan and I were discussing the very famous Translucent Beef Slices of our Sichuan Cuisine." Zhang Yan smiled and didn't say much. Then, he directly introduced the video.
"The Translucent Beef Slices is a special delicacy of our Sichuan Cuisine. Yuan has a deep understanding of this dish. Not only is the discussion process in the video, but Yuan also specially demonstrated how to cut the Translucent Beef Slices to make it live up to its name." Along with Zhang Yan's introduction, the video also began to play.
Just as Zhang Yan said, there were only him and Yuan Zhou in the video.
Most of the people here knew that a young genius chef had appeared in Sichuan Province. He rose to fame when he subdued Tengyuan Jiayuan. After that, a series of events made Yuan Zhou even more famous.
However, the chefs present were all of the older generation. Although they were curious, they didn't have the desire to go and have a look. Every year, genius chefs would appear in the cooking world. Without knowing much about Yuan Zhou, they would at most think that Yuan Zhou's Sichuan Cuisine was very awesome.
But what did it have to do with other cuisines like them?
Therefore, few of the chefs of the older generation present had a deep and direct understanding of Yuan Zhou's culinary skills. However, the young chefs standing behind them almost all knew Yuan Zhou, regardless of the cuisines.
Thinking about it, it made sense. He was so popular on the Internet.
These disciples of the younger generation looked at Yuan Zhou with complicated expressions. Some were jealous, some were emotional, and some were envious. In short, it was very complicated.
When the older generation saw Yuan Zhou appear in the video, a sentence immediately appeared in their hearts, "This guy has become a great person."
That's right. This was the evaluation that appeared in the first meeting.
Yuan Zhou appeared in the video with a serious face and a straight back. When he talked to Zhang Yan, he was neither fast nor slow. Not only did he have the demeanor of a great master, but his posture of holding the knife was also extremely relaxed. At first glance, one could tell that he was a capable person.
"This Yuan's culinary skills are probably about the same as yours and mine." This was said by Huaiyang Cuisine Master Hang Tian. He was talking to the Cantonese Cuisine Master beside him.
The Cantonese Cuisine Master nodded in agreement. Then, he pointed at the meat that Yuan Zhou had just cut and said, "How is his knife skills compared to yours?"
