Chapter 1649 The Sword King and the Impossible
In Huai'an City.
"Have you read it?" Gu Chen asked his friend Chen Pianzhen while holding the "Huai'an Morning News".
Chen Pianzhen asked: "Huai'an Morning News? You have known me for more than ten years. When did you see me having the habit of reading newspapers?"
Gu Chen put down the newspaper. In fact, the newspaper was not the key. He brought it over to discuss it with Chen Pianzhen.
Seeing that Chen Pianzhen really didn't seem to know anything, Gu Chen couldn't help but ask: "Did you really not see the news?"
"What's the news? Did you send me a message? I was helping my children with their homework this morning. You don't know. It's so uncomfortable. My head hurts terribly. I can't explain or communicate at all." Chen Pianzhen rubbed it. My forehead, thinking about it now, still makes my head hurt.
Chen Pianzhen picked up the phone and looked at it.
Nowadays, various apps are installed on mobile phones, so even if there is no news, other apps will publish hot news.
Not to mention the rest, anyway, when Chen Pianzhen opened her phone, two messages were sent - [Chef Ding Jie Niu was cracked], [Chef Yuan did another big thing]
Chen Pianzhen clicked on the latter one without hesitation. As for the first one, he received too many headline-making news every day.
["The cook Ding untied the ox for Mr. Wen Hui. He touched it with his hands, leaned on his shoulders, walked on his feet, and stepped on his knees..." This paragraph should be very familiar. It comes from "Zhuangzi", and today's reporter from Mr. Wu Yungui, the third spokesperson of Chef Yuan, learned locally that Chef Yuan will perform the legendary Chef Ding Jie Niu at the horse cheating banquet.
It is reported that……]
Such a report successfully made Chen Pianzhen confused. He read it many times. This news was reprinted by Youth Daily.
Youth Daily is no better than other tabloids. As a government-owned newspaper, the news it publishes is absolutely confirmed.
Below is also an introduction to information about Yuan Zhou, the Yuan Zhou that Chen Pianzhen is familiar with.
As for Yuan Zhou’s spokesperson, after all, Yuan Zhou has received only a handful of interviews. The second spokesperson is Zhou Shijie. A lot of news came from Zhou Shijie. First, everyone should know it, so I won’t say anything about it. .
Chen Pianzhen looked up at Gu Chen and suddenly realized, "You came to me probably because of this."
"That's right, the Internet went crazy today because of this incident. Anyway, our chef circle has exploded. What do you think?" Gu Chen said.
"What do you think?" Chen Pianzhen said: "If someone else said this, then there's no need to say it. It's 100% false. But it's Chef Yuan who said this. I'm not sure..."
"Yes, I came here just because I was not sure." Gu Chen rubbed his head: "You said Chef Yuan is the same. He always has to make a big event. I heard that because of the Young Chef Exchange Conference, Chengdu There are already a lot more foreigners.”
Chen Pianzhen paused and added: "If it weren't for the inappropriate time, I would also like to participate."
"It's really not the right time." Gu Chen also had the same idea.
The two of them didn't just talk about it. They carefully studied the itinerary of the Young Chef Exchange Meeting. If they advance to the finals, starting from the preliminary preliminary round, it will last about two months. Of course, it does not mean that they need to stay in Chengdu all the time. It's just that The whole cycle is so long.
Gu Chen and Chen Pianzhen are both chefs of the "Huaiyang cuisine" style of Huaiyang cuisine. Chefs of the Huaiyang style have been preparing for the "Huaiyang Banquet" recently, so they don't have enough time.
"We went astray. Should we tell Master about this?" Gu Chen asked.
Chen Pianzhen said: "I must tell you that Chef Yuan's affairs are not trivial."
The two decided to go out immediately. Chen Pianzhen and Gu Chen were both thirty-four years old this year, but the former looked much younger than the latter. The two stood together and said that Gu Chen was Chen Pianzhen's uncle. Some people believe it.
Huaiyang cuisine is famous for its exquisite knife skills, and the Huaiyang Department is dedicated to creating more ornamental and valuable knife skills. Every two years, the chefs of the Huaiyang Department jointly launch a Huaiyang Banquet. Come and show the beauty of Huaiyang kitchen knife skills.
The creator Wang Huai, more than thirty years ago,
The famous Huaiyang cuisine chef placed the "King of Knife" plaque in the museum.
The master mentioned by Chen Pianzhen and Gu Chen is also Wang Huai. In fact, after Mr. Wang founded the Huai Dao system, many chefs with superb knife skills joined him, that is, the second generation. Chen Pianzhen and Gu Chen are the third generation. Dai is actually just called Master, not Master in our traditional sense.
This is the reason why the two of them didn't tell the master first, but skipped a grade and said so.
Mr. Wang Huai is over 70 years old this year, and his health is not as good as before, but he still personally hosts the sword-wielding banquet every time.
At this time, Wang Huai was at home. Chen Pianzhen and Gu Chen had better knife skills among the younger generation, so they asked for advice on cooking skills many times. Mr. Wang Huai also liked to support the younger generation. It should be said that they were absolutely Most people who can be called masters in a certain craft like to support younger people.
So these two people are still very familiar with Wang Huai.
About twenty minutes later, Chen Pianzhen and Gu Chen arrived at Wang Huai's house.
"Bang bang bang" knock on the door.
It was not Wang Huai who opened the door, but Wang Jike.
"Uh, why are you Chef Wang?" Chen Pianzhen and Gu Chen immediately felt that their backs were straightening a lot.
"I have something to do with Mr. Wang today. Come in." Wang Jike turned and entered the living room.
Chen Pianzhen and Gu Chen followed Wang Jike in cautiously.
Mr. Wang Huai was sitting on the sofa. His hair was completely white, but his body was still quite strong. He couldn't tell that he was seventy years old. He looked like he was sixty-three or fourteen at most.
"It is said that during the dim sum party, Chef Yuan made very exquisite Suzhou-style boat snacks, which were exquisite and delicious. Unfortunately, I did not eat them." Wang Huai continued what he had just said to Wang Jike, his voice full of energy.
While the old man was talking, he was cracking melon seeds. The reason why the old man was in good health was that he could eat them.
In the words of Mr. Wang, if my cooking is so delicious, of course I should eat more, but not all chefs have a good appetite. For example, Gan cuisine master Chen Mu is very skinny and is suspected of having anorexia.
A chef suffering from anorexia is like many funny comedians suffering from depression. It is a relatively absurd thing, but the reality is often so absurd.
“Not many chefs in Jiangsu Province have received invitations, and I didn’t receive an invitation at that time,” Wang Jike said.
"The dim sum party is not big in the first place, so it's normal to come." Wang Huai sighed: "I've always wanted to go to Chengdu, but I haven't had the time recently."
The old man said as he handed the melon seeds to Gu Chen and Chen Pianzhen and asked, "Catch it yourself if you want to eat it."
Gu Chen and Chen Pianzhen nodded and stood beside them like primary school students. If only Mr. Wang Huai was alone, the two of them would be quite free, but with Wang Jike around, they must behave themselves.
“If it weren’t for my family Xiaoqiang, I wouldn’t have interacted with Chef Yuan, and I wouldn’t have believed that there are really young chefs under thirty who can cook so well, and most importantly, have such an attitude towards cooking. Be serious and rigorous." Wang Jike said.
"It's fair to think about it. Nowadays, the younger generation has a better life, better nutrition, and is smarter. Their achievements will definitely surpass those of us old men." Wang Huai looked at Chen Pianzhen and Gu Chen.
Chen Pianzhen and Gu Chen really want to say, don't put them together with Yuan Zhou. If they surpass Wang Huai and Wang Jike, if Yuan Zhou can do it, it doesn't mean that they can do it!
Mr. Wang Huai, as the founder of the "Huai Dao Department", was the chef who introduced Jiangsu cuisine to famous Chinese chefs. He also taught Wang Jike's cooking skills, so he can be regarded as half of Wang Jike's master.
Wang Jike came today to share the insights he learned from Yuan Zhou, so he talked about Yuan Zhou.
"Tell me, what questions do Pian Zhen and Xiao Chen need to ask me?" Wang Huaidao.
"Master, we are not here today to ask questions about cooking skills. We are here today to have something to do with Chef Yuan..."
Before Chen Pianzhen finished speaking, he was interrupted by Wang Huai, who asked, "Huh? Chef Yuan is going to hold a dim sum party again. Has the invitation been sent to you?"
He eats as soon as he opens his mouth. From this, it seems that Mr. Wang Huai is not an eater, but a foodie.
"No, Chef Yuan announced a big event today." Chen Pianzhen said.
"What a big deal, why don't I know about it?" Wang Jike said. After returning from Chengdu, he had been very concerned about the news about the God of Cooking shop, but he had not received the news yet.
"The news only came out this morning." Chen Pianzhen said.
Gu Chen answered: "It has spread on the Internet. Maybe Chef Wang and Master discussed things this morning and didn't see it."
After Gu Chen received the news for the first time, he immediately approached Chen Pianzhen because Chen Pianzhen was a good talker.
Wang Jike asked: "What's the big deal?"
Mr. Wang Huai on the side was eating melon seeds and waiting to listen.
"Chef Wang and Master should know about the news about the roasted whole beef," Chen Pianzhen said.
Wang Huai and Wang Jike nodded, and the latter also said that he wanted to eat the roasted whole beef.
"There are still some issues that need to be improved in this year's Huai Dao Banquet. I don't have time to go there. Jike, you must take more pictures when you go. If you can't eat, I might as well take a look." Mr. Wang said.
"My photography skills are not very good." Wang Jike said.
Mr. Wang said: "It's okay, just high definition."
After the exchange between the two, Chen Pianzhen continued: "Chef Yuan is saying that at the horse cheating banquet, the cook and the cow will be shown."
"impossible!"
Hearing the words "Pao Ding Jie", Mr. Wang Huai almost subconsciously denied it. As a chef who pursues the ultimate in knife skills, he has naturally studied "Pao Ding Jie Niu".
And more than once, when Mr. Wang Huai was thirty years old, he had been in seclusion for a long time, hoping to restore it and shock the world.
But it failed.
At the age of forty-five, another study was carried out, but it failed again.
Until ten years ago, when the old man was in his sixties, he wanted to do something for the Chinese culinary industry, but undoubtedly failed.
"To achieve what Zhuangzi said about how the cook understands the cow, you must first use your mind to perceive the cow without your eyes. This alone is already legendary. A cow is extremely complex. How can you perceive it without your eyes?" Wang Huaidao said.
"The most important thing is the knife. Every knife must follow the grain of the beef. I can do this, but every knife must cut into the gaps between the muscles and bones. At the same time, it cannot touch the bones at all. The blade must go between the joints. Not to mention how difficult it is to master the spacing between the beef bones, as well as the gaps between the tendons and bones. This is accurate to the millimeter, and no knife craftsman can achieve this."
Mr. Wang Huai is different from others. Others only know that the process of cutting the cow is miraculous and the product of a miracle, but they don't know how difficult it is to restore it.
Because I don’t understand it, I think it’s impossible.
However, Mr. Wang knew it too well. After all, he had failed three times and knew the specific difficulty, so he thought it was impossible.
Mr. Wang Huai was so decisive that it was difficult for Chen Pianzhen and Gu Chen to refute.
Wang Jike turned on his mobile phone and started to check the news.
"It must be a rumor in the tabloids. Chef Yuan's knife skills are only weak compared to mine. Cook Ding and Niu Niu should be just adjectives." At the same time, Wang Jike did not believe that Yuan Zhou was the one who spoke arrogantly, so he did the last thing he did. Compliance judgment.
"Reporters from the Youth Daily called Chairman Zhou and boss Wu Yungui and confirmed that the news that Chef Yuan is indeed going to restore the story of Chef Ding and Jie Niu is true, and it will really be shown at the horse fraud banquet." Chen Pianzhen said .
So precise.
Wang Huai himself also turned on his mobile phone. Although it was not as easy as young people to play, it was still no problem to check the news. Indeed, as Chen Pianzhen said, many official departments have reported this matter. Xiang Kitchen Federation is on the official website A big banner was put up on the homepage.
The room fell silent for a moment.
"Jike, do you need an invitation letter for the horse fraud banquet?" Wang Huai broke the silence in the room with his own words.
"Except for the few people who are specially invited to express their gratitude and have invitation letters, the rest can go by themselves." Wang Jike inquired quite clearly.
"Mr. Wang is going to go? Is there any problem with the Knife Feast?" Wang Jike knew that Mr. Wang cared most about the Knife Feast after his wife's death.
"Essentially, because I understand Chef Ding's Jie Niu, I think it is a skill that cannot be restored. But at the same time, I believe in Chef Yuan and Chef Yuan, so I must see the specific situation for myself." Wang Huaidao.
"Chef Yuan is extremely serious about his cooking skills. If it were not 90% or even 100% consistent, he would not say that he has succeeded in the restoration." Wang Jike said.
"If it is true, the plaque on the King of Swordsmen should have an owner." Wang Huai let out a long sigh.
Wen Wu is the first, Wu Wu is the second. No matter how many times I read it, I still feel that what the ancients said makes sense. I don’t know how many chefs covet the plaque of the King of Knives.
"Master..."
Chen Pianzhen and Gu Chen said at the same time that the signature of Knife King has been maintained in the hands of Huaiyang cuisine chefs for more than 30 years.
This is representative of the fact that Huaiyang cuisine is the best among domestic knife craftsmen. If the award is awarded to Yuanzhou, then...
"Needless to say, the King of Swordsmen has a reputation for being the ultimate in swordsmanship, and Chef Ding Jie Niu is the ultimate in swordsmanship." Wang Huaidao said: "To obtain the plaque of the King of Swordsmen requires the consent of all the directors of the association, but I believe that if it is true, all the directors will not There will be further objections.”
"When is the horse fraud feast?" Wang Huai asked.
Wang Jike said: "The day after tomorrow, the horse cheating feast will start the day after tomorrow."
"Then I'm going to Chengdu tomorrow. You should all know the news. Pian Zhen and Xiao Chen go ask the director of Jiangsu Cuisine Association if anyone wants to go together and buy the tickets together." Wang Huai arranged.
"I understand, Master." Chen Pianzhen and Gu Chen responded immediately.
The cheating horse banquet and the chef's unwinding of the cow have indeed touched the hearts of many famous chefs.
