The chef who interrupted was the head chef of the White Restaurant, Ao Pi. His White Restaurant was famous for its saltwater dishes. Of course, after becoming famous, Ao Pi accepted several disciples.
He hadn't cooked in the White Restaurant for a long time. Although he didn't cook in person, the White Restaurant's rating of 0.2 Yuan on the Gourmet Appraisal Website really made him angry.
Therefore, when he heard Chef Li of the Shrimp and Crab Gathering kept praising Yuan Zhou, he got angry and retorted.
"That's right. Head Chef Li, don't you think Yuan Zhou is too high? I've seen the Sichuan Province Exemplary Restaurant. He does have some skills in Sichuan Cuisine, but he's not as good as you said."
"I've also been to that small restaurant. Except for Sichuan Cuisine, he only knows a few other dishes."
Those who could come here all had a strong opinion of Yuan Zhou. Therefore, when Ao Pi spoke, they also answered. Fortunately, no one was blind enough to say that Yuan Zhou's Sichuan Cuisine was not good enough.
However, there were also smart chefs present. For example, someone said,
"Head Chef Li, you didn't call us here just to tell us how great Yuan Zhou is, did you?"
Someone gave him a ladder, so Chef Li followed it. Chef Li said, "I've studied it for a long time and found that Yuan Zhou has never cooked seafood."
Hearing this, everyone thought about it carefully. Many people had secretly been to the Yuanzhou shop, and it seemed to be true.
There was indeed no seafood dish on the menu of the Yuanzhou shop.
"Never cooking doesn't mean he can't cook. Although Yuan Zhou is young, he is actually very shrewd. When he first opened the restaurant, he said that he could only cook Egg Fried Rice, and then he gradually introduced wheaten food and Sichuan Cuisine. I don't know how many things he has hidden."
Many people agreed with the words of the head chef of the Spicy Prawns.
"That makes sense. Yuan Zhou is so skilled in Sichuan Cuisine, but he said at the beginning that he could only cook Egg Fried Rice and Clear Broth Noodle Soup. He doesn't deserve to be called a son," Ao Pi said disdainfully.
"Egg Fried Rice and Clear Broth Noodle Soup are baits. This kind of gradual progress is definitely better than a swarm of bees. What a good plan!"
"I remember that Yuan Zhou isn't even thirty years old yet. At such a young age, his mind is already so deep. How terrifying."
Everyone's discussion successfully portrayed Yuan Zhou as someone who was extremely shrewd, gloomy, and had a high EQ.
Chef Li continued, "If I hadn't done it before, I wouldn't be so sure. Do you still remember the exchange meeting between China and Japan?"
To put it bluntly, these chefs might have some fame in Sichuan Province, but they were definitely not qualified to attend the exchange meeting between China and Japan.
Therefore, they only knew about it from reading newspapers or listening to people who had been there.
Seeing everyone nodding, Chef Li continued, "In the exchange meeting in Shanghai, Yuan Zhou conquered the famous Fujiwara of Japan with his Anchovy Steamed Rice."
"Actually, if you want to conquer the island people, fresh fish is the best, but Yuan Zhou chose river fish." Chef Li continued, "If he chose river fish just to show off his skills, in Japan, he made sashimi when he was questioned."
"Both sashimi and Anchovy Steamed Rice actually exposed the fact that Yuan Zhou doesn't know how to cook seafood," Chef Li concluded.
"After all, sashimi is just picking out the edible ones and then winning by cutting skills. He doesn't need to know how to cook it," Chef Li emphasized.
Not to mention that people only wanted to believe what they believed. All the people present were seafood cooks, so they were very willing to believe that Yuan Zhou was inferior to them in some aspects.
What's more, Chef Li's analysis was indeed reasonable. Judging from the exchange meeting between China and Japan, Yuan Zhou was indeed not good at cooking seafood, not to mention that he didn't know how to cook seafood.
"Very good. So what's your plan, Chef Li?" Ao Pi asked.
If Yuan Zhou really didn't know how to cook seafood, why would he compete with you with something he didn't know? He was not stupid.
"The Yuan Zhou Gourmet Evaluation Website claims that it evaluates based on the standard of Yuanzhou shop. Since we cook seafood, we should let Yuan Zhou compete with us in seafood," Chef Li said. "If he doesn't agree, then his Gourmet Evaluation Website can only be shut down. How can he evaluate us if he doesn't know how to cook seafood?"
It was really reasonable. How could he evaluate them if he didn't know how to cook seafood? Now the head chefs present finally understood why the head chef of Shrimp and Crab Gathering only invited over 20 of them out of more than 700 low-rated branches. It turned out that it was because of seafood.
The group of people began to discuss the details. The more they talked, the happier they became.
It seemed that Yuan Zhou was destined to lose, or the website would be shut down …
It was lunchtime in Yuanzhou shop.
Without a doubt, Wuhai was at the front of the line. Zhou Xi, who clamored to ask Eaves Wu about it during breakfast, was behind Wuhai.
But at the crucial moment, he chickened out.
As for why he chickened out, it was because Zhou Xi felt that it was not serious to go up to Wuhai and strike up a conversation with him.
Therefore, Zhou Xi didn't say a word since he could line up to get the number plate until the business time began.
In addition, Zhou Shijie left his silly son behind and took a plane to the capital because he had something to do in the Chef's Association.
At the beginning of lunchtime, Wuhai rushed into the restaurant and ordered seven or eight dishes. To be honest, only Wuhai could eat like this.
First of all, he had the money. Second, he had the stomach. If he couldn't finish his food, he would be blacklisted.
"Hey, bro, you look like a pervert by eating like this." Wang Hong also followed him into the restaurant.
Then, he saw Zhou Xi peek at Wuhai from time to time and then at him from time to time. Zhou Xi's eyes were quite hesitant and a little perturbed, just like a young man who had a crush on someone else. That simply gave goosebumps all over Wang Hong's body.
As for Wuhai himself, he was used to being the center of attention. Not to mention one person peeking at him secretly, he wouldn't have any reaction even if all ten of them were beauties.
"You don't understand. It's already very good to be able to look up to such a genius like Eaves Wu from afar." Zhou Xi answered Wang Hong's question while ordering the dishes.
That's right. Zhou Xi didn't forget to order the dishes. He had originally intended to imitate Wuhai, but later found that he couldn't finish his food. Therefore, he ordered half of the same dishes.
"Why are you called Shameless Wu and Eaves Wu?" Wang Hong asked.
"Because he's the most popular painter of China in Europe and America. He's called the Eaves Wu of China." Zhou Xi said decisively and proudly.
Wang Hong took a glance at Wuhai, who was wolfing down the food and snatching the dishes from him from time to time. Was this guy so awesome? Did he have a theme for his new book?
That's right. Wang Hong was a writer. Of course, he could afford to eat not because of the royalties, but because he himself was a rich second-generation heir.
Because it was related to his new book, Wang Hong asked a few more questions. As for the topics related to Wuhai, Wang Hong was very interested in them. Therefore, he told him a lot of things.
The astonishment on Wang Hong's face became more and more intense, especially when he heard that Wuhai had gone to America for the first time to participate in an art exhibition and the organizer had given him a seat in the corner.
But in the end, Wuhai's A Person Like Him was auctioned at the highest price in the auction, surpassing the other painters. This made him very excited.
"I didn't expect Wuhai, who has such a low EQ and can't even take care of himself, to have such a story," Wang Hong muttered to himself, "Is it true that the more talented one is, the more unable he is to take care of himself?"
Zhou Xi had another opinion on Wang Hong's muttering.
