Not only did the Chinese chefs get advice from the top French chefs, but the French chefs who participated in the exchange also got some advice.
Those who could come with Zhou Shijie for the exchange were all famous. Just like the top French chefs who didn't know how to cook Chinese cuisine, many of them didn't know how to cook French cuisine. However, their culinary skills were indeed similar. Many of the suggestions they gave were very practical.
"This China-France Food Exchange is more successful than I had imagined."
"Actually, I think this kind of exchange can be held once a year. It's good to promote the food culture of the two countries."
Ogyust smiled happily. It was no wonder that he was so proud. The exchange had been organized by him, Manfred, and Gauss. Of course, they didn't have any selfish motives.
Their original intention was to use Yuan Zhou's almost invincible culinary skills to stimulate the French food industry.
Now, they had not only exceeded this goal, but the Chinese chefs who came with them had also benefited a lot from the exchange.
"From the aspect of culinary skills, every country has its own glory, and China is especially glorious," Gauss said.
Zhou Shijie didn't say anything. No matter how glorious it was, someone had to bring it out. If it wasn't for Yuan Zhou, no one knew how long it would take for this kind of glory to shine in Europe's Bogus World Cooking Competition.
"We can hold it in China next year. It's better to hold it in another place," Zhou Shijie said.
With Yuan Zhou, Cheng Zhao Mei, and many other excellent chefs, Zhou Shijie spoke with his back straight. He was just full of confidence.
"That's a good idea. Julianne and the others all want to visit Yuan Zhou's restaurant," Ogyust said.
"Indeed, we can go out and have a look." Ju Man Lee also expressed his agreement.
"What about the plan to go to North America in the second half of the year?" Ogyust asked subconsciously.
"I don't agree. There's nothing delicious in North America. North America isn't worth going to, but there's something good in South America," Ju Man Lee answered without hesitation.
The reason why he said there was something good in South America was that Argentina was in South America, and Ju Man Lee knew a famous chef from Argentina.
Ogyust revealed an expression of "as expected". His attitude was still the same. Ju Man Lee would never show up unless he was blind.
"We can still go to China a few more times," Ju Manli added.
Naturally, Manfred and Gauss were also very willing to do that. They all felt that China was a land of outstanding people. Not only did it have an invincible Yuan Zhou, but the culinary skills of the chefs that came for the exchange today were also quite good.
Even if there were some dishes that he was not used to, it didn't stop him from feeling that they tasted pretty good. Moreover, there were a variety of flavors and cuisines, which was an eye-opener for him.
So in the following time, the two sides discussed some details of the exchange meeting between China and France in the future. Of course, while the higher-ups were discussing the issues, the chefs who participated in the meeting were not idle either.
Everyone gathered together in twos and threes. Some of them spoke fluent English, while others spoke poorly. It was quite harmonious.
Time passed quickly while they were talking. When Yuan Zhou returned to the hotel with Cheng Zhao Mei, it was already night time.
"Zhao Mei, have you packed everything?" Yuan Zhou didn't bring much with him. He had already packed everything when he set off in the morning.
Cheng Zhao Mei had also packed before, so she was quite relaxed at this moment, "Yes, master."
"Have you told your junior brothers and sisters to go back with Chairman Zhou? They don't need to rush back with us," Yuan Zhou said.
Yuan Zhou planned to rush back overnight. Maybe he could still open for business tomorrow. It would be good to have dinner time. Honestly speaking, he had been away for several days and missed the bustle of Taoxi Road.
"Yes, I have. It's also arranged," Cheng Zhao Mei nodded and said.
"Then let's go." Yuan Zhou turned around and walked towards the door while saying that.
The suitcases had already been taken by Zhao Mei in her hands, one on each side and another small bag. These were some spices that the chef of French cuisine gave to Yuan Zhou. A small amount for each person made up a big bag.
If it weren't for the trouble of going out of seclusion, they would probably send more.
The plane tickets had been bought earlier. Because he didn't know if he could rush back in time, Yuan Zhou reserved one day of free time for tomorrow.
There was no direct flight, so he needed to take a connecting flight. It was hard to grasp the time. Even Yuan Zhou couldn't calculate how long it would take.
[Ya, I'm going back now. Take care of your work and don't be too tired. I'll cook delicious food for you when I come back.] Sitting on the plane, Yuan Zhou reported his schedule to Yin Ya again before the plane took off.
[Got it, Blockhead. Take care of yourself on the way back. Go back and have a good rest before opening the restaurant. Don't worry, take care of yourself.] Although she knew that Yuan Zhou was a self-disciplined person, Yin Ya still hoped that he could rest more.
[Don't worry, Ya.] Yuan Zhou enjoyed Yin Ya's concern very much.
Before the stewardess came to remind him, Yuan Zhou said goodbye to Yin Ya in a hurry and turned off his phone. The plane was about to take off.
"I wonder how long Uncle Zhou and the rest plan to stay?" Yuan Zhou mumbled.
After the exchange banquet ended today, Zhou Shijie told Yuan Zhou that the exchange team wanted to stay back to inspect the food and beverage situation in France again to accumulate some information for next year's exchange meeting.
One had to know that Ogyust and the rest had also stayed in Chengdu for a long time to inspect the food and beverage situation in Huaxia for the first exchange meeting. Of course, the president didn't need to be personally involved in everything. It was just a coincidence.
"Rumble, rumble!"
The plane roared, and the fuselage trembled. After a while, it glided out and flew toward the sky after accumulating enough energy.
At this time, the night sky of Lyon was bright with thousands of lights below. Although it was hard to see clearly, it made people feel good just by looking at it.
Yuan Zhou looked at the night view and took a deep breath. He put on his eye mask and planned to rest for a while. Now that he could finally relax, even Yuan Zhou felt a lot more relaxed.
With Yuan Zhou's strength, there was indeed no need to be too nervous. However, he was representing a country after all. Now that everything had been settled, Yuan Zhou could naturally relax a little.
After the transfer, they were not far from Huaxia. When dawn replaced the darkness and the sun shone on the ground, Yuan Zhou was finally close to the sky above Chengdu. It was already ten o 'clock in the morning.
By the time the plane landed, it was already an hour later. Yuan Zhou came out from the exit with Cheng Zhao Mei.
"Master, Sakura has arrived. We should be able to see her when we go out." Cheng Zhao Mei glanced at the message sent by Cheng Ying on her phone.
"We can go back by ourselves. Why did you let Sakura make a trip back and forth?" Yuan Zhou asked.
"This is what we should do. This way please, Master," Cheng Zhao Mei said seriously.
Obviously, she didn't think there was anything wrong with coming to pick up her master. As the disciple's disciple, Cheng Ying should make more trips.
Yuan Zhou shook his head helplessly and followed Cheng Zhao Mei to the front.
"Congratulations, Teacher's father, for winning the Golden Chef Award and the Most Popular Dish Award. Congratulations!" Cheng Ying was holding a big bouquet of red dahlia flowers, looking very happy.
With a proud smile on her face, Cheng Ying respectfully handed the flowers to Yuan Zhou to express her congratulations.
Dahlia flowers meant great luck and prosperity. Cheng Ying also spent a lot of effort in choosing the flowers. As the first person to see Yuan Zhou who returned with honor, she naturally had to set an example.
