Starting from winning the food competition

Chapter 5 The Eve of the Competition
The next day is June 6th.

The last day before the food competition.

Lin Beiyang didn't go to the restaurant.

It is equivalent to a holiday, there is no need to go.

I tried the fish-flavored shredded pork a few more times at home, and I was sure that the taste was the same every time I made it, so I was relieved.

I am just worried that the taste will change slightly, as long as there is no problem.

In the afternoon, Zeng Xiang sent a congratulatory WeChat message.

Xu Beiyang smiled at this.

Zeng Xiang's thoughts are very clear to him, and he wished that when he made a fool of himself, he would be the first to jump out and criticize him.

But he forgot that he was the one who had been encouraging beforehand.

If it wasn't for activating the system, he wouldn't have attended.

As a result, as soon as he participated and qualified for the competition with a score of No. 1, he suddenly disappeared.

Before I left yesterday, I wanted to meet, but I couldn't find anyone, so I knew I was going to hide without thinking.

WeChat not only expresses thanks, but also apologizes.

I apologize that I shouldn't have had such an approach and thought before.

And also said that he would invite him to dinner.

As for his apology, Lin Beiyang chose to accept it, but did not agree to the meal.

For people like this, it's a big deal not to get in touch later, and there will be no loss.

Early the next morning, Lin Beiyang came to the hotel at 8 o'clock.

We need to gather at the hotel today.

At 8:[-], all the people arrived.

There are three chefs participating in the competition, Wang Gang, Xu Yang, and two other people from the catering department, a total of seven people participated in the competition.

"Three masters, before going to the competition, let me talk about the specific process of this competition." Wang Gang said with a smile.

After arriving at the scene, the competition will start directly after verifying your identity.

There will be no time to introduce the rules of the game.

It is usually stated clearly in advance.

Wang Gang continued: "Let me first talk about the number of chefs participating in this competition. There are a total of [-] chefs."

Lin Beiyang knew this.

It's not that there are only 30 people who signed up.

There are no restrictions on registration, and everyone can register for the competition.

After registration, there will be a preliminaries, which will determine the top 100 chefs from more than 18 registered chefs, and then each of the six co-organized restaurants will send out three chefs, a total of [-] people will form the final lineup.

These six restaurants only need to choose three masters internally.

This is one of the benefits that co-organizers have.

At any rate, the event fee was paid, so there are naturally some benefits.

"First of all, it is the first round of the competition. I believe everyone knows it well. It is to choose one of the ten classic Sichuan dishes for the competition. The second round of the competition is to randomly select one of the ten classic dishes for cooking. The final scores of the dishes are added together to form the ranking."

They are indeed very clear about this, and they have said it many times before.

Anyway, both dishes must be the best.

If one dish is well done, but one dish is not well done, the total score will not be particularly high, and the ranking will naturally not be too high.

"Secondly, the main purpose of this competition is to create the classic taste of dishes, so the score composition this time does not include innovation. The score ratio is composed of 30 points for taste, 30 points for appearance, 20 points for texture, and 20 points for nutrition and hygiene. The total score is 100 points. .”

This Lin Beiyang is not very clear.

General food competitions will be scored from these five aspects.

The ratio of ratings varies occasionally, but generally doesn't change much.

This gourmet competition is to wear and cook classic Sichuan dishes.

It is indeed not suitable to give points in terms of innovation if it is required to make the most classic taste of the dishes.

On the one hand, it is classic, on the other hand, it is innovative, and there will inevitably be conflicts.

During their assessment the day before yesterday, they scored from four aspects. Lin Beiyang scored 91 points, which was not very strict.

But I believe that the score will not be particularly low during the competition.

"In the end, the champion will be determined, with a runner-up and a third runner-up. The champion bonus is 5000 yuan, the runner-up bonus is 3000 yuan, and the third runner-up bonus is 2000 yuan. But you must be clear, the most important thing is not the bonus, but the ranking belt. The honor of coming here is good for the three masters."

After hearing the introduction, Lin Beiyang already understood.

Bonuses are not unimportant.

It's nothing more than honor.

There are not many prize money in the competition, and the chefs basically don't come for the prize money.

5000 is not much at all.

Honor is more important.

After all, being able to win an award can show good cooking skills from the side.

If you become more famous, you will be admitted first if you go to a restaurant to apply for a job, and there will be many benefits.

If you open a restaurant by yourself, everyone will naturally be more willing to taste it when they hear that they have won awards in the competition.

Lin Beiyang also had the same idea.

He knew from the beginning that the prize money would not be too much, and he regarded this competition as a starting point for himself to become a famous chef.

If you can't even win the championship in such a competition, let alone the provincial cooking competition, the national cooking competition, and the world cooking competition.

There are other comprehensive food competitions, and Lin Beiyang's goal is to be the champion.

Either don't participate, or win the championship directly.

[Ding, newcomer mission [-] has been released, please go to the mission to inquire! 】

Hearing the familiar mechanical sound of the system, Lin Beiyang quickly opened the mission system.

[Newcomer task 100000: As a newcomer, participate in the food competition and win the championship, and make your name famous. The task reward is [-] yuan in cash. 】

Seeing the mission requirements, he was not surprised.

My goal is to win the championship, just like the rookie mission one, I will participate in no mission.

If you can really win the championship, it is not a problem to make your name famous.

Surprisingly, the rewards.

This time, a cash reward of 10 yuan was directly given.

He is not very short of money, but of course he is very happy to have so much money.

Anyway, this task will be done with great pleasure.

"Three masters, do you understand everything about this competition? If there is anything you don't understand, you can ask me again."

Lin Beiyang raised his hand to signal: "Chef, how is the game time arranged?"

Wang Gang smiled and said: "Look at my memory, I forgot to mention this. The competition is held at the Municipal Culinary Association. Each competition lasts for one hour. The first 10 minutes are for preparation, and the last 50 minutes are for the start. Each competition has 10 people Together, the first game is from 9am to 12am."

“接着中午从12点半到下午2点整休息，第二场比赛是从下午2点整一直到下午5点整结束，最后从5点到6点这一个小时是颁奖仪式，合影等等。”

Meaning each game lasts three hours.

After all, there are only 30 masters in total, and 10 people compete together, and each time it takes one hour, that is, it can be completed in three hours.

A game like this may last for a few more days.

Often it can be done in a day.

At that time, it will be publicized on local TV stations, the Internet, newspapers, etc., which is also a good channel.

"Understood." The three replied.

Wang Gang said with a smile: "Okay, there are still 40 minutes before the game, and it will take about 15 minutes for everyone to rush there. You can go there and prepare."

When you go to the game site, you only need to change into the game clothes prepared by the organizer.

Nothing else said to be ready.

Soon, a group of people came to the competition site.

Jincheng Culinary Association.
