Wang Dong's Egg-Fried Rice was very fragrant. Not only Gu Zheng, but the other contestants were also surprised.
Twenty small servings of Egg-Fried Rice were served in front of the judges. All of them couldn't help but take a deep breath to smell the fragrance of the Egg-Fried Rice.
Amidst the freshness, there was a bit of grease, but the flaws couldn't obscure the beauty. The fragrance of the Egg-Fried Rice still aroused the appetite of all the judges.
That's right, every judge had the urge to eat. They were judges, and they had eaten fifty different dishes before. Although it was only a small bite, they were definitely not hungry. But now, they actually had the urge to eat the Egg-Fried Rice in front of them. Even they themselves were surprised.
Gu Zheng still didn't move. This time, he was looking at the twenty judges.
It wasn't hard to tell the judges' expressions. They were all shocked by the fragrance.
Gu Zheng could also smell the fragrance. According to his previous judgment, the main ingredients of Wang Dong's Egg-Fried Rice were very high grade. They might have reached the second-grade. The main ingredients were rice and eggs. The second-grade rice was very rare, but it wasn't non-existent. The rice cake store that Gu Zheng discovered previously used the second-grade glutinous rice flour.
As for the eggs, he could buy them himself, so it wasn't surprising that Wang Dong could buy them.
It was a pity that the quality of the oil was definitely lower than the two ingredients. Otherwise, the greasy smell would be very faint. Even Gu Zheng could smell a bit of greasy smell, which was enough to prove it.
However, these were only Gu Zheng's guesses. He would only know the truth after he appraised it.
One of the judges hesitated for a moment, then picked up his chopsticks and picked up a small ball of rice. There were three grains of rice, very small. They were wrapped in the cooked egg liquid, looking crystal clear and cute.
He put it into his mouth, and in the next moment, his eyes suddenly widened. The surprise on his face was even more intense.
This time, without hesitation, he directly picked up the spoon, scooped out half a spoonful of rice and put it into his mouth again. After finishing this mouthful, he kept nodding his head.
The other judges also noticed his appearance. Some of them were like him, only picking up three small pieces of rice. There were also some who directly used the spoon to eat, but didn't fill it up.
Soon, everyone who ate the Egg-Fried Rice had the same surprise as the first judge. They looked at each other and saw the surprise in each other's eyes.
This Egg-Fried Rice was different from what they had imagined.
The rice grains were chewy and chewy, with a clear rice fragrance. The egg white was not fishy. Other than a little oily taste, everything else was very good. It was a complete delicacy.
In terms of taste, the Egg-Fried Rice was much better than the instant noodles they had eaten before. This was a real delicacy. It was the best thing they had eaten today.
Originally, they thought that it was another person who was deliberately causing trouble, but unexpectedly, it was an unexpected gain. The judges put down their spoons and began to silently grade.

Soon, Wang Dong's score appeared on the big screen. When the audience saw the first judge's score, they were stunned. As more and more judges' scores appeared, the audience was in an uproar. This Egg-Fried Rice actually got such a high score?
After a while, the judges finished giving their scores. Wang Dong's final score was also out. After removing the highest score and the lowest score, Wang Dong's final score was 8.6, which was the highest score in the entire competition.
"No way, am I seeing things?"
"8.6 points, how is that possible?"
"Does this guy have a strong background? Is that why they gave him such a score?"
"My worldview has been completely subverted. If this Egg-Fried Rice can get such a high score, then won't my dishes get full marks?"
There were all kinds of discussions outside. Mumu, who was standing outside, was also in a daze. 8.6 points, it was actually 8.6 points. Just now, he was very shy outside and kept saying that he was very nervous. A young man who was less than 20 years old, who was working as an apprentice in a big hotel, actually made a simple Egg-Fried Rice and got the highest score in the entire competition.
Even Mumu also had a look of disbelief.
Only Gu Zheng had a smile on his face. He had guessed that Wang Dong's score would not be as low as others thought. Maybe he could get a high score, but he did not expect that he would get such a high score. With this score, it was inevitable for him to advance today.
This was good news for Gu Zheng.
This meant that the judges did not care about what you made, they only cared about the taste of the food. In this case, his fried egg should not get a low score.
In fact, Gu Zheng did not have high requirements for the score, as long as he could keep advancing.
"I'm not convinced, I want to know why?"
A hearty voice suddenly sounded. The head chef of the chain store who got 8.0 points in the first batch stood out, walked directly inside and questioned the judges inside.
"Get out, get out quickly, or your score will be canceled!"
A staff member's face changed and hurriedly came up to drive the chef out. The other chefs who were cooking could not help but be distracted and looked outside.
The judges' faces also changed. This was openly questioning them. It was fine if it was just a question, but rushing in like this might affect today's competition.
"I'll deal with it!"
An older judge stood up, still holding the unfinished bowl of Egg-Fried Rice in his hand. The chef who questioned him had already been asked to leave by the staff member.
"I'll give you a chance. Either you wait quietly for the final result of the competition, or I'll tell you the reason, but your score will be canceled!"
The judge said slowly. The chef who questioned him slightly changed his face, but he still gritted his teeth and said, "I want to know the reason!"
"Good, that's the reason. Try it yourself!"
The judge nodded slightly and passed the small bowl of Egg-Fried Rice to the chef. The Egg-Fried Rice was not cold yet, and was still steaming.
As soon as the chef took the bowl of Egg-Fried Rice, he smelled a different fragrance. His face changed again, but he still gritted his teeth and scooped a spoonful of Egg-Fried Rice and put it into his mouth.
With just one bite, his face became somewhat ferocious and unsightly.
After finishing the mouthful of Egg-Fried Rice, he did not say anything and returned the bowl to the judge. He bowed to the judge, packed his things, and left with his people.
That judge also sighed and went back inside.
The head chef of this chain store had good culinary skills, and he had also received the judges' approval. However, his character was not good. Moreover, the judge had already given him a chance. As long as he did not continue to make trouble, the previous violation of the rules could be ignored.
Just his behavior of rushing into the competition was enough to cancel his score. This was the rule that had been set before, and no one was allowed to violate it. Because his score was good, the judge came out and gave him this chance.
The choice that the judge gave him was actually very simple. As long as he did not make trouble now, everything would be fine. However, if he insisted on pursuing the reason, then he could tell him the reason, but he had to be eliminated. This was also to make an example out of him. Otherwise, there might be more cases like this in the future, and the judge would not be able to explain them one by one.
Since he chose the latter, he had to bear the consequences of his choice.
The head chef did not make trouble and left with his people. Originally, with his score, it was not a problem for him to enter the next round, and he could even enter the last two rounds of the preliminary round. However, because he violated the rules, his score was canceled, which meant that he could not continue to participate in the competition.
