"Congratulations, host. You've triggered a hidden prestige mission. Do you accept it?"
Yuan Zhou had made up his mind that the next time the system popped up, he would make Yuan Zhou admit his defeat. However, the system's prompt successfully diverted Yuan Zhou's attention elsewhere.
The last time this hidden prestige mission appeared, it was to make Yuan Zhou the most famous chef in the country. The reward was an entire Cantonese cuisine and he could set his own business hours, although Yuan Zhou hadn't changed his business hours since then.
Yuan Zhou, who had experienced it before, knew that the hidden mission would only be released when it was triggered. In other words, the trigger this time was an invitation from Gyro Ma.
Seeing that Yuan Zhou didn't respond, Gyro Ma thought Yuan Zhou didn't know much about the competition, so he explained, "The Bogus World Cooking Competition is organized by Paul Bogus, the King of Cooking in France. You know him, right?"
Yuan Zhou nodded. Actually, he knew a lot about the World Cooking Competition, but since Gyro Ma had already spoken, it wasn't appropriate for him to interrupt.
The reason why French cuisine could play an important role in Western cuisine, even surpassing Italian cuisine, was because of Paul's promotion. Therefore, French cuisine was the King of French cuisine.
"The Bogus World Cooking Competition is held once every two years. It's called the Olympics of cooking and can be said to be the highest level competition in Western cuisine," Gyro Ma said, "Mr. Gauss is the only chef who has won first place twice."
Gauss said, "Actually, most of the competitions are done by teams of chefs. But with Yuan's cooking skills, I believe you can do it alone."
"I think Yuan's cooking skills should be able to win first place in the World Cooking Competition," Gyro Ma said.
"I don't think so," Maricello objected.
Gyro Ma looked at him in disdain. This stupid groundhog even wants to argue with this?
This time, Maricello really wasn't arguing with him. He had a valid reason to refute. He said, "If Mr. Gyro Ma participates in the World Cooking Competition now, you can definitely win first place. But will you go?"
"Nonsense. How can I go?" Gyro Ma was already a judge. Why would he participate in the competition?
"That's it then. Your steak is far worse than Yuan's. If you don't want to participate, why would Yuan want to participate in this competition?" Maricello's logic was very simple, so simple that it made people's hair stand on end.
In fact, the reason why Troma, Maricello, and the others were like this was because they were conquered by Yuan Zhou's cooking. Secondly, it was because they had complicated emotions. Such a delicious steak could not be eaten in Europe, and most Europeans did not even know about it. How could they accept that?
"So, I have an idea. Every year, the China Chefs' Alliance and the Japan Cooking Association will hold the Sino-Japanese Cooking Exchange. Maricello said. "I think we can have a China-France exchange. Yuan, you will lead a team to France for an exchange, and I will represent France to China for an exchange. It's the best of both worlds."
It was true.
Strictly speaking, Marisello's idea was also a good idea.
However, the Chefs' Association was a semi-official organization of the two countries, and the activity in the name of "Sino-French Culinary Exchange" could already be regarded as a cultural exchange between the two countries. It could be imagined how complicated it would be. Anyway, there was no way to settle it within this year.
After that, Troma and Maricello started to argue about whether Yuan Zhou should participate in the World Culinary Competition or participate in the World Culinary Competition.
"Actually, I feel that there is no conflict between participating in the World Culinary Competition and holding a Sino-French exchange." Gauss suddenly said, stopping the meaningless argument between the two.
Gauss paused for a while and continued. "Also, isn't everything depends on Yuan? What's the point of you two arguing for so long? "
Troma and Maricello immediately came back to their senses. They were embarrassed and apologized to Yuan Zhou.
Normally, Yuan Zhou would reject activities and exchanges. However, because of the sudden activation of the hidden mission, Yuan Zhou replied that he would consider it.
"Yuan, you must consider it carefully. The Sino-French exchange is a better way." Maricello said.
Troma did not speak again. He felt that if he spoke again, it would make him look like a stupid marmot.
In order to show the difference between him and the marmot, Troma changed the topic to cooking.
During the exchange with Hang Tian and the other masters, Yuan Zhou realized that the masters' experience was very valuable. Although he knew nothing about French cuisine except steak, one day, he was going to master all the cuisines on Earth.
Therefore, he was hungry for the knowledge of these masters. Yes … hungry was what Cao Zhi wrote. It meant well, but it felt weird to use it to describe Yuan Zhou.
Back to the topic, Gauss had written the textbook of the Chef Academy and often went to Cercle Cordon Bleu to give lectures. He knew very well whether someone was listening carefully or not.
In fact, Gauss thought that it was normal for Yuan Zhou not to listen carefully. On the one hand, the exchange was not written in a report, so it was impossible for Yuan Zhou to listen carefully all the time. Some experiences would be interspersed in the middle, and even Gauss himself was no exception.
On the other hand, and most importantly, what kind of cooking skills did Yuan Zhou have? From Gauss's point of view, Yuan Zhou knew a lot of what they shared.
Moreover, whether it was a genius or a master, they all had the capital to be arrogant, and Yuan Zhou was both a genius and a master.
However, Yuan Zhou was very serious the whole time.
"He has achieved so much at such a young age, yet he still maintains a humble and enterprising heart. A chef like Yuan Zhou is really rare." Gauss was prepared to write Yuan Zhou's spirit into the textbook, and he had even made up a story.
Don't think that only China liked to make up stories. Foreigners liked it even more. There was a story about Washington cutting down a cherry tree and admitting his mistake, and his father praised him for being a kid who dared to admit his mistake.
Not to mention how much of a bear Washington had to be to cut down a tree when he was young, the authenticity of this story was completely doubtful. Also, Washington did not pick up silver coins from the roadside. Other than a fake biography, there was no other evidence. It was basically confirmed that this story was made up by foreigners.
Gauss's story was that one day, Yuan Zhou and Ogyust went to a small restaurant, and then they ate a very delicious dish. Yuan Zhou humbly asked the boss to cook it, and he called the boss teacher on the way.
Ogyust was very strange and said, "You are now a world-class chef. Why do you call an unknown little chef teacher just because of doubts about a dish?"
Yuan Zhou replied, "Discovering a new secret of a dish is far more attractive to me than the title of a world-class chef."
Why Ogyust? Because Gauss knew that Ogyust often came to China, and Ogyust was well-known among the people, so the story was more credible.
Well, it was perfect. The more Gauss thought about it, the more he felt that his story was very educational.
