Chapter 419 Purpose(1/2)
Gao Dian ignored the man's dullness and confusion, got in the car, drove away.
The deal proposed by the man does sound beautiful. He just needs to put some water on and get a secret recipe.
Why not do it?
Unfortunately, Gao Dian didn't want to do so. He felt that this was disrespectful to the game.
A secret recipe can really make him feel moved, but it is not enough to make him break his bottom line.
As for people, they have to stick to something.
The man didn't understand, but this was Gao Dian's persistence, so he could give up the opportunity to easily get a secret recipe.
In fact, he doesn't care much about the ranking of the selection competition. Whether it is the first or second place, he can enter the next game anyway, right?
Only in the subsequent competitions can that ranking make sense.
Just a selection competition, ranking itself does not mean anything.
For Gao Dian, things that he did not pay attention to are of great significance to Wang Pinkui.
He looked at Gao Dian's departure taillight, his hands tightly grasped, and his joints were a little white.
Wang Pinkui is also a pastry chef and a first-class pastry chef.
Among the first-level pastry masters, he is also at the top level, and is only one step away from the first-level pastry master.
However, he had long known that he could not become a special first-class pastry chef, so he gave up on his intention of continuing to make breakthroughs.
Wang Pinkui has a strong personality and does not like to work in the hands of others, so he opened a restaurant by himself.
Unlike the Dianxin Building opened by Gaodian, the hotel opened by Wang Pinkui can only be regarded as a mid-level hotel.
He has no management skills, so the restaurant is not big, similar to private dishes.
Of course, his hotel business is still very good and can bring him a considerable income every year.
Wang Pinkui is not young, he is already forty-nine this year, and he will be fifty in another year.
His purpose was not to win the final championship.
He is very clear about his cooking skills. In terms of the overall environment, it is not bad, but it is really not enough to watch in this competition.
In this game, it is often a battle between the special level pastry chef and the special level pastry chef. Even if the first level pastry chef can enter the subsequent competition, he will be eliminated soon.
Even if you are at the top level of first-class pastry, the result is the same.
He has long passed the age of passion and is full of reality.
He participated in the competition with a unique purpose.
This year, his hotel business has declined slightly compared with previous years.
He participated in the competition to rank the selection. He didn't care whether he could enter the subsequent competition, but in the selection competition, he hoped that he would be the first place.
The National Pastry Master Competition has a high value for value. Although the selection competition is not as valuable as the official competition, it is still possible to be fooled.
As long as he gets the first place, he can use this title as a promotion to make the hotel business better.
For many diners, they can’t tell the difference between the first-level pastry masters and the top, and they don’t know the difference.
This ranking is the most intuitive way of publicity.
Wang Pinkui learned about it through his own relationship in advance that there are only two first-level pastry chefs participating in the selection competition in their area.
One is himself, and the other is Gao Dian, a young man who has just risen recently.
There are only two top-level pastry chefs in a region participating in the trial competition. It seems very few, but in fact it is not small.
The top level is beyond the general upstream level, and it is only one step away from the special level pasta.
There are very few such pastry chefs. It is no longer rare to have two competitions in a region.
Not everyone will participate in this competition.
At the beginning, Wang Pinkui did not take Gao Dian seriously.
Even though they are both top-notch, there is still a gap between people. He is an old pastry chef. Could it be that he can still lose to a young man?
However, Wang Pinkui was second in two consecutive rounds of competition, which made him feel a little panicked.
He doesn't care if he can't get into the back-up competition, but he can't lose this first place!
Especially the first place in the last round of the competition, that is the most important thing.
As for the past, it was not that important.
Gao Dian has shown more strength than him now. After thinking about it, he decided to come to Gao Dian.
Of course, he cannot go to look for it openly. He is also a well-known person. If this matter is discovered, he will be in danger of his integrity and his reputation will be ruined.
In order to motivate Gao Dian, Wang Pinkui was also well prepared.
He prepared two hundred thousand and a secret recipe!
This 200,000 is the most money he can afford. No matter how much he has, not only does not have that much cash, but he also feels distressed.
Although the value of the formula is higher than 200,000, he has no choice after giving it. Moreover, in his opinion, the formula is a bargaining chip that Gao Dian cannot refuse.
A young genius like this has much more temptation to pass on the secret recipe than money.
In fact, the situation was just as Wang Pinkui thought.
Wang Pinkui is very sure. Apart from the temptation of the secret recipe, this transaction is not harmful to Gaodian.
Wang Pinkui knows such a young genius very well. The opponent's goal is definitely not the ranking of the selection competition. His goal is the subsequent competition. For him, the selection competition is simply entering the subsequent competition.
He understood this way because Wang Pinkui was once such a genius.
When he grows old, many cognitions and ideas have also changed.
At first, he asked Gao Dian to go to a teahouse, but after waiting for a long time, Gao Dian didn't go. He came to Dianxin Tower in person to wait.
Waiting for Gao Dian to get off work.
What he didn't expect was that there were other people around Gao Dian, and he didn't dare to show up for a moment.
Just when he thought he could not see Gao Dian alone, the people around him suddenly left, and Wang Pinkui was overjoyed.
He successfully met Gao Dian, which made Gao Dian feel moved.
The result was beyond his expectations.
He could not understand Gao Dian's rejection, just as Gao Dian did not understand his persistence.
Wang Pinkui gritted his teeth. He felt ruthless. He didn't believe that a young boy could really beat him!
The third round... let's take a look!
Gao Dian didn't know what Wang Pinkui was thinking, of course, even if he knew it, he wouldn't care.
……………………
Guo Chen returned home and his parents supervised him to complete today's exercise.
Guo Chen said with a bitter face: "My parents, can you give me a day off? I will continue practicing tomorrow. Today I am really tired, my arms hurt."
A hint of heartache flashed in Guo Chen's mother's eyes, but her husband did ideological work with her and she completely figured it out.
A temporary indulgence may have ruined Guo Chen's life.
She attributes Guo Chen’s current inability to study to her indulgence at the time.
She said with a stern face: "No! You have to complete today's exercise before you can rest! Pastry is a craft that requires persistent practice, and you are still in the test stage. If you are lazy, what if you can't pass the test?"
Guo Chen's father also said: "Yes, this is the path you choose, you have to persevere. If you don't like studying, your mother and I won't force you, but if you like this path, you can't give up halfway."
Guo Chen wanted to refute, but he couldn't find any refute.
This path was indeed chosen by him and he also fought for it with all kinds of ways.
Finally, no matter how Guo Chen said he was working hard or how tired he was, his parents insisted that he could only go to rest after he finished practicing.
Guo Chen had no choice, so he came to his kitchen to complete today's exercise.
…………
In the third round of the game, Gao Dian and Li Dongyang still went together.
The two of them prepared the ingredients and kitchen utensils for today's competition.
On the way, Li Dongyang suddenly spoke: "Gao Dian, I may not be able to enter the later game."
"This is not like it was said from your mouth." Gao Dian said.
Li Dongyang has always been very confident, and his self-confidence makes people seem a bit conceited.
But Li Dongyang said today that he might not be able to enter the subsequent game so disgusting.
"I know my abilities." Li Dongyang said.
Gao Dian said: "I believe you can, come on!"
When Li Dongyang heard this, he shook his head and said nothing.
To be continued...
