It was a common practice for the head chefs at the end of the line to prepare fewer dishes. After all, you couldn't expect these dignitaries to eat so much.
At this time, everyone found a problem. Wu Hai basically didn't move his chopsticks at the end. He just talked.
This guy seems to be very cunning, the Thai Prince thought to himself.
The Japanese dignitaries at the side also saw this scene. They glanced at Oishi Xiujie and found that he didn't move his chopsticks anymore.
This discovery made the dignitaries a little depressed. After all, in such a state banquet, you couldn't say that the food was not delicious. It could only say that there were few dishes that suited their taste.
But when there were so few dishes, someone still wanted to compete with them. Of course, the most important thing was that there were so few dishes that suited their taste!
Fortunately, the culinary exchange was only one part of the event. Soon, the main dishes of the head chefs from various countries had been tasted, and the culinary exchange of the Asia-Pacific Exchange Conference came to an end.
The head chefs also said goodbye and began to leave the circle.
What was left was the exchange of other national policies.
The head chefs left the circle one by one. The Thai Prince looked at Yuan Zhou's straight back and the way he walked. Well … it could also be said that he was walking with a pace that didn't care about anyone.
The Thai Prince couldn't help but sigh, "Minister He, the head chef of your country really amazed everyone."
As for whether the Thai chef amazed everyone, it was what the Chinese translation said.
Listening to the simultaneous translation, He Zhenghong replied with a smile, "The world will belong to the young people in the future. It's natural to let the young people perform more. He's not bad."
He Zhenghong looked very modest, but she was very happy in her heart. She couldn't help but praise Yuan Zhou inwardly, "This Yuan Zhou is really proud. No wonder Zhou Shijie and the other chefs all praise him. It's not without reason that he can conquer a master."
Seeing He Zhenghong's modest look, the Thai Prince didn't say anything more. This was just a small interlude. Everyone talked about something else again.
After the head chefs left the circle, they began to walk toward the back door of the banquet hall. They were all preparing to leave.
After all, it was very tiring to deal with a group of dignitaries.
As soon as these head chefs left the core circle, their assistants immediately surrounded them. Therefore, this group of people was not small.
"Head Chef Yuan, are you alright?" Zhong Lili stood beside Yuan Zhou and asked carefully.
"I'm fine," Yuan Zhou said softly and walked out with Zhong Lili.
However, at this time, Dashi Xiujie, who was half a step behind Yuan Zhou, rushed to Yuan Zhou again and blocked Yuan Zhou's way.
Last time, when Dashi Xiujie stopped him, he declared that he would defeat Yuan Zhou, which was heard by all the executive chefs of all the countries.
However, after eating the dishes cooked by Yuan Zhou this time, everyone looked at Dashi Xiujie in a strange way.
After all, in terms of culinary skills alone, even if they were from different countries, languages, and food cultures, they could still conclude that Yuan Zhou's culinary skills were superior.
Therefore, everyone slowed down subconsciously, ready to see what Dashi Xiujie was going to do.
"You …" Zhong Lili frowned. When she was about to take a step forward, Yuan Zhou directly grabbed her arm and pulled her back.
Zhong Lili followed Yuan Zhou's strength and stood behind him. When she passed by Yuan Zhou, she saw that he didn't even move his eyebrows, let alone his expression. Thus, she stood there at ease.
"Yuan Sang-san, I'm sorry." Dashi Xiujie didn't waste time. He took a step forward and directly made a 90-degree bow before sincerely apologizing.
Yuan Zhou, who was dressed in a red top and black bottom, stood tall and straight. In front of him, Dashi Xiujie, the leader of the young generation in the Japanese culinary circle, made a 90-degree bow to apologize.
"I apologize for my rude words in the morning. Your culinary skills are indeed extraordinary," Dashi Xiujie said again.
"Um. Get up," Yuan Zhou said lightly.
"Thank you." Only then did Dashi Xiujie straighten up.
Yuan Zhou nodded his head and was about to turn around and leave. However, Dashi Xiujie said again, "Yuan Sang-san, I will catch up with you one day. At that time, I will come to ask for your advice."
"Um." Yuan Zhou nodded his head noncommittally and then left with Zhong Lili.
Only then did the executive chefs of various countries understand that Dashi Xiujie came to apologize. After reading the apology, these people gradually dispersed.
"This Dashi Xiujie is a little interesting," Yuan Zhou said with a faint smile at the corner of his mouth.
"What do you mean a little interesting? Head Chef Yuan, "Zhong Lili asked curiously.
"When he stopped me in the morning, these people were also there. When he apologized, they were also there. So, he finished what he started," Yuan Zhou explained in a rare good mood.
"Oh, he wanted to show his respect to you, Head Chef Yuan," Zhong Lili suddenly understood.
"Um, that's what he meant." Yuan Zhou nodded his head and then continued to walk to his room.
That's right. Just like what Yuan Zhou said, Dashi Xiujie deliberately chose such an occasion to apologize was to tell everyone that Yuan Zhou was a master worthy of respect and that he was sincerely convinced by him.
Another point was that if he offended such a master, he should apologize.
The people present naturally understood the twists and turns. Even if Yuan Zhou was not sensitive to the ways of the world, he also understood Dashi Xiujie's sincere apology.
The banquet lasted until 9: 30 pm. After 9: 30 pm, it did not really end. At the end, there was a media interview session.
The people who were interviewed were the main political guests of this exchange, namely, the people from the core circle.
This group of people was interviewed on the rostrum. In front of these people, there was a microphone, which was convenient for the reporters from various countries to ask and answer.
The questions asked in such an interview were usually very official. The first question was asked by the representative of the Huaxia side. "May I ask what impressed you the most about the Asia-Pacific Exchange Conference?"
Such an official question, so the answer was naturally official. The representative of He Zhenghong answered the final plan of this economic discussion.
The leaders and politicians of other countries said the same thing.
In the end, the Thai Prince said, "This economic and cultural exchange let me see the leading and advantages of Huaxia in various fields. I think our country can carry out more cooperation with Huaxia."
As soon as the Thai Prince finished talking about cooperation, there was a round of applause. Then the Thai Prince said, "For example, we can open more Chinese restaurants in Thailand, so that the people of the two countries can have more opportunities to exchange food culture. Young and promising chefs can go to Thailand to develop their careers."
Hearing this, the Indian politicians looked at the Thai Prince meaningfully, but they did not say anything.
The Thai Prince's words received the approval of some politicians from neighboring countries, such as Kazakhstan.
Then, from the exchange of food culture to the cooperation and exchange of infrastructure and other national issues.
It could be said that the end of the press conference was very grand.
Although no one mentioned Yuan Zhou's name, this time, as the head chef, Yuan Zhou received another compliment, which was that everyone was very satisfied with the Huaxia culinary exchange.
