After seeing Zhou Shijie off, Yuan Zhou was lost in thought. "What should I do before?"
Feeling that he had forgotten something, Yuan Zhou looked at his phone and remembered that he hadn't started recording videos yet. He didn't know how many videos he had to record in a year, such as congratulatory videos, encouraging videos, and videos sharing his cooking skills. Therefore, after doing this many times, he naturally had some experience.
After he skillfully set up the mobile phone, he began to prepare the tools and materials he needed. When everything was ready, he directly started to work.
Yuan Zhou was relaxed, but in Lyon, France, someone was a little nervous because of Yuan Zhou.
"This is the video of Yuan that Ogyust and his friends are interested in, right? Fortunately, I have many friends, and it took me a lot of effort to find it. Let's see how it goes first." Sitting in his room, Steele held his phone tightly in his hand.
He had just received a video sent to him by a good friend, saying that it was a video of Yuan that he had been looking for for a long time.
Seeing that the video had already loaded more than 50%, Steele knew that he would soon be able to enjoy it carefully. Although he didn't know that there was an old saying in Huaxia, "Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be defeated", anyone with a normal brain would know that he should know his opponent's situation before the competition so as to make a good strategy.
As one of the most popular candidates to win the Bogus Cooking Contest, Steele certainly didn't take ordinary opponents seriously.
However, this chef called Yuan made Steele very alert, mainly because he could see from some of Ogyust's conversations that Ogyust greatly appreciated this chef called Yuan. No! To be exact, it was admiration.
Moreover, his teacher, Head Chef Fran Anthony, who was known as the Magic Hand in France, also seemed to be very cautious about Yuan Zhou.
As a person who could stand out in the crowded French cuisine circle at the age of 40, of course, Steele had a lot of skills. However, the judgment of two top chefs made him decide to see how Yuan Zhou was doing first.
Knock, knock, knock.
Just when the video was about to finish downloading, someone knocked on the door.
"It's so late. Who is it?" Steele frowned. It was already past eight o 'clock in the evening. Logically speaking, no one should have come looking for them.
There was another competition the next day, which would determine the finalists of the cooking competition. It was an important competition, so everyone wanted to have a good rest and be ready for tomorrow's competition.
Steele planned to take a break after watching the video after practicing her cooking skills.
Although hesitant, Steele still walked to the door and asked, "Who is it?"
"It's me, Head Chef Steele. May I know if you can open the door?" A courteous voice came from outside the door.
Steele immediately recognized that this voice belonged to her strongest opponent, Head Chef Julian.
Hearing the familiar voice, Steele secretly heaved a sigh of relief and directly opened the door. The floor was covered with a thick carpet, so the door was not directly in contact with the ground. Therefore, even if the door was opened, it would not make any noise.
When Stehle opened the door, he saw Julian's familiar face. Judging from his clothes, he seemed to have just come back from outside. He didn't know why Julian came to see him at this time. After all, they were competitors, and they weren't that close in private.
"Aren't you going to invite me in?" Julian had a gentlemanly smile on his face, looking very comfortable.
"Please come in, Chef Julien." Stettler gestured for Julien to come in.
After sitting down on the sofa, Julian's excellent eyesight caught a glimpse of the phone that was casually placed on the coffee table. The picture on the phone was paused on an Asian face. Thinking of what he was going to say later, he curiously glanced at the phone again.
"Head Chef Steele, are you watching a video of an Asian chef?" Julian asked casually.
"A Chinese chef that my teacher highly admires," Steele said directly. It was not a secret, so it was not a secret.
"Oh, it seems that I made the right choice this time." Julian's eyes flashed.
He knew the status of Head Chef Anthony, Steele's teacher. As one of the top chefs in the French cuisine world, he was an absolute authority. Naturally, the person recommended by him could not be underestimated.
"What do you mean, Head Chef Julian? What brings you here so late at night? "Steele asked directly.
Steele was not patient to beat around the bush. He was very straightforward and straightforward. Unlike Julian, who relied on his own efforts to climb to the top, Steele was the kind of person who had learned from his family and was also a model of extraordinary talent.
"Head Chef Steele, do you know where Head Chef Dean and the others are now and why they didn't participate in this year's competition?" Julian did not keep Steele in suspense and asked directly.
"I think they opened a new restaurant in China. Are they busy?" Steele was not very sure.
They were all in the same circle, and they were all head chefs who were about the same age and had similar achievements. This time, it was a little strange that Dean and the others all gave up the competition at the same time. However, Steele was not that bored to care about other people's private affairs. Apart from feeling a little regretful that he could not compete with them, he had no other thoughts.
Therefore, for a moment, he could not figure out why Julian took the initiative to mention them.
"I met Head Chef Gabriel tonight when I went out for dinner, and he told me the reason," Julian said with an inexplicable expression.
Inexplicably, because of a chef, more than a dozen Michelin three-star chefs voluntarily gave up the competition, not daring to compete with him. Julien felt that if he didn't know Gabriel, he might have suspected that someone was joking with him before April Fool's Day. The most important thing was that this joke was not technical at all, and this chef was a Huaxia man.
"Has Head Chef Gabriel returned to China? I didn't see him. "Steele was a little disappointed that he did not see him.
"Head Chef Steele, do you believe that Head Chef Gabriel and the others didn't participate in this year's competition because of one chef?" Julian could not help but ask directly.
"What? That's impossible. What kind of head chef can have such great influence? Is it because Head Chef Manfred participated in the competition in person?! "Steele's eyes widened in disbelief.
"I don't believe it either, but Head Chef Gabriel said it with certainty." Julian came to Steele because of the great shock.
It was probably because he thought that he could not eat the melon alone and should share the joys and sorrows with everyone else.
Stunned, Steele still did not dare to imagine it and shook his head, not knowing what to say.
"Head Chef Steele, whose video are you going to watch?" Seeing Steele's stunned look, Julian instantly felt much better and changed the topic.
"It's about a Chinese chef named Yuan. I want to know more about him. It seems that he will also participate in the competition this time and directly come to participate in the final," Steele was still immersed in his own thoughts. Hearing Julian's question, he said unconsciously.
"Is he called Yuan Zhou? Head Chef Gabriel also said this name," Julian exclaimed in surprise.
Although he was not very familiar with Chinese names, he could still distinguish them after hearing them twice in such a short time. Therefore, Julian felt that they should be talking about the same person, but he was still not sure.
