Chapter 236 Formula improvement and pre-match mobilization(1/2)
On the day the competition begins.
Wei Qiaoyi got up early. After she washed up, she changed into clothes for her home.
Gao Dian got up at this time, washed up briefly, and put on clean and tidy clothes.
"I'll pack up and go." Gao Dian said.
Wei Qiaoyi looked him up and down, nodded and said, "I'm dressed very handsome today."
Gao Dian said: "That's right, I'm going to participate in the competition today, so many people are watching."
"I won't play today." Wei Qiaoyi said.
"Hmm? No competition?" Gao Dian was puzzled.
Wei Qiaoyi smiled and said, "This afternoon is the opening ceremony and the competition will officially start tomorrow."
"Ah? Then what are we doing now?" Gao Dian asked.
He got up so early just to rush to participate in the competition. As a result, Wei Qiaoyi said that the opening ceremony would be the afternoon and the competition would only start tomorrow.
He didn't find it strange to have an opening ceremony. After all, this is a competition that many people pay attention to. It is still an international competition. It is unreasonable without an opening ceremony.
"Didn't you read the news in the group?" Wei Qiaoyi said strangely.
"Group? What group?" Gao Dian was even more confused.
Wei Qiaoyi was also a little confused, "Didn't I remember pulling you into the group? Don't you know?"
Upon hearing this, Gao Dian took out his cell phone, clicked on it and saw that there was indeed a strange group called "Go to the First One".
"I didn't pay attention." Gao Dian said.
He hasn't looked at his phone much these days, mainly because of some remarks on the Internet, which made him upset.
He had a vague impression of this group..., as if he had added it, but after adding it, he quickly blocked it.
This is Gao Dian’s habit. He is not used to the water group, so the general group messages are open for free.
Wei Qiaoyi was speechless, and the discussion in the group was very hot, but Gao Dian didn't read it at all.
"I said yesterday in the group that we, the contestants, gathered in the morning, and then went to attend the opening ceremony in the afternoon." Wei Qiaoyi said.
"That's it, let's go." Gao Dian said.
"Don't worry, it's still early. I'll go get some breakfast." Wei Qiaoyi said.
Gao Dian responded, Wei Qiaoyi walked into the kitchen and soon came out, "Have you used up all the ingredients?"
"Ah! It seems that I forgot to tell you." Gao Dian said.
"Forget it, I saw the lily crisp you made in the kitchen, so I'll just eat it." Wei Qiaoyi said.
"Okay." Gao Dian agreed.
Wei Qiaoyi went to heat up two glasses of milk, and the two sat on the dining table and ate slowly.
Suddenly, Wei Qiaoyi's body was shocked and she said in surprise: "Did you make this lily crisp?"
Gao Dian nodded and said, "Yes, what's wrong?"
"This taste...why is it so delicious?" Wei Qiaoyi asked.
Wei Qiaoyi has eaten the lily crisps made by Gaodian and has eaten a lot of them.
Wei Qiaoyi felt that although eating at night is prone to gain weight, there is no need to worry about eating during the day.
Moreover, the lily crisp made by Gaodian tastes really good, and is especially suitable for eating when watching TV shows.
But the lily crisp she ate before...is not as good as this one.
Wei Qiaoyi thought of a question and asked quickly: "Have you found the right ingredients? But it's not right. Even if you find the right ingredients, you shouldn't have such a big improvement."
Hearing Wei Qiaoyi's words, Gao Dian was a little puzzled and asked: "Why can't there be such a big improvement?"
Wei Qiaoyi did not answer this question, but asked: "How did you do it?"
Gao Dian didn't think much about it and talked to Wei Qiaoyi about the accident that happened yesterday.
After listening to Gao Dian's remarks, Wei Qiaoyi fell into a long silence.
Gao Dian's eyes showed doubts, why did he suddenly stop talking?
After a long time, Wei Qiaoyi said, "I really don't know if you are lucky or lucky."
"Well……"
Wei Qiaoyi looked at Gao Dian seriously and said, "Your luck makes me envious, and you can improve it by making mistakes."
"It's okay, I saw a lot of pastries, which were created by various mistakes. In comparison, my this is still normal, right?" Gao Dian said.
"Only... Forget it, you can't swear. The ones you see are all lucky ones, super lucky ones. Think about it, how many lucky ones have only appeared in thousands of years of history?" Wei Qiaoyi said.
Gao Dian recalled, saying, "In that case, I am really lucky."
Wei Qiaoyi rolled her eyes and said, "It's not just good, it's so good that it's amazing. Your lily crispy is not found the right ingredients, but it has been improved. Generally, finding the right ingredients is not that great for the lily crispy."
Gao Dian asked in confusion: "Why isn't that big? If not that big, why should we find the right ingredients?"
Wei Qiaoyi said: "The improvement is not that big, and there are improvements. Just like many people like to use expensive ingredients when cooking.
For example, it is a bun, and it is filled with lobster stuffing, a king crab stuffing, and a black truffle that is packed with caviar. Anyway, it is expensive, so it can be done.
Why do they do this?
It’s not just to enhance the taste of the pastry, but of course it can sometimes backfire.
Finding the right ingredients has the same purpose, and the right ingredients improve the taste better than simply using expensive ingredients."
"I understand." Gao Dian nodded.
"Your modified lily crispy tastes much better than the original one. Maybe it may not be possible to surprise everyone. Don't disclose the improvement first." Wei Qiaoyi said.
"I know, don't worry." Gao Dian said.
The Lily Sauce was improved, but Gao Dian didn't feel much in his heart. The main reason was that this matter had nothing to do with him, it was based on luck, not his own ability.
Wei Qiaoyi ate a few lily pastries and said, "I was worried before that your lily pastries may not be suitable for this competition. Now it seems that I am overly worried."
"What does it mean?" Gao Dian asked.
"During training, you should have some understanding that when you make cutter noodles, you win a lot, but when you make lily crisps, you lose more." Wei Qiaoyi said.
When Gao Dian heard this, it seemed that this was indeed the case.
His Lily Su is in the first and second stages of training, but in the third stage, it is obviously not enough.
When he makes lily pastry, he can win only if his opponent does not make impeccable pastry. If the opponent makes impeccable pastry, he will lose more than he wins.
"Why is this?" Gao Dian asked.
"Because the recipe of lily crisps is not good enough," Wei Qiaoyi said.
Gao Dian was stunned. Is this the reason?
"When the level is similar, making the pasta recipe is the key to winning or losing. When the cooking skills and recipe levels are equal, ingredients are the key to winning or losing." Wei Qiaoyi said.
"I understand what you mean. Cooking skills are the first priority, followed by recipes, and then ingredients, and then some other influences." Gao Dian said.
"Yes, this is what it is usually like. If it is an extreme situation, then any factor is the key to the outcome." Wei Qiaoyi said.
Gao Dian breathed slowly, and he already understood what Wei Qiaoyi expressed in his heart.
This is also why Hu Dekun asked everyone to find suitable ingredients, just to increase their chances of winning.
"We'll leave after eating, let's leave. Let them be anxious later." Wei Qiaoyi stood up and said.
"Okay." Gao Dian followed.
…………
There were 20 contestants in total, including ten chefs in the White Case and ten chefs in the Red Case.
This competition is divided into two aspects in total.
One is the white chef competition, and the other is the red chef competition.
Twenty people seem to be a lot, but think about it, there are only ten people on one side. This is a contestant from a country. In this way, you will not feel that there are too many people at once.
When Gao Dian and Wei Qiaoyi arrived at the place, it happened to be the prescribed time.
The two found a seat to sit down. There were two old men on the stage. In the middle was a middle-aged man with a national face and a majestic face.
One of them is Hu Dekun, and the other one is Gao Dian, so I don’t know much about it.
Wei Qiaoyi whispered to Gao Dian: "The other one is a master-level figure on the Hong Case Chef, who is very influential."
Gao Dian nodded suddenly.
"Are you all here?" asked the middle-aged man sitting in the middle.
"We're here." Everyone answered immediately.
"Okay, since we're all here, let's just talk about the serious business."
