Chapter 2050 A Moment of Silence for Him

Expectation value, it can be said that all diners who know the reputation of Chef God's shop have great expectations for Yuan Zhou. Fortunately, Yuan Zhou will never let the diners' expectations down at any time.

Minister Wang was very busy. After lunch, he left the follow-up work to Director Li and quickly left Rongcheng.

As for Director Li, he now has a legitimate reason to come to the God of Cooking restaurant for dinner, so he decided to come twice a month in the future. This will help him communicate with the image ambassador and build a relationship.

"This should be no problem." Director Li thought he was really a clever guy.

Perhaps it was because I had been idle for the past half month, but things happened one after another today. In the afternoon, Auguste and others, who represented the organizing committee of the Bocuse Culinary Competition, also came to the God of Cooking shop.

First, I wanted to tell Yuan Zhou about the specific details of the competition and some changes compared to last year.

Don't think that the competition formats of large-scale competitions are fixed, especially large-scale competitions in the culinary arts circle, which basically change every year.

Speaking of which, celebrity chef Juman Li, the vice chairman of the organizing committee of the Bogust Cooking Competition, is very opposed to a Chinese chef entering the finals directly, even if this person is Yuan Zhou, the number one in Asia.

Juman Li is not targeting Yuanzhou, but Chinese food. He has always felt that Chinese food culture cannot be brought to the table.

Not all chefs are tolerant.

But Auguste was the chairman of the jury of the Bocuse d'Or. He directly suppressed Jumanli's dissent.

Of course, August didn't tell Yuan Zhou about this, so Yuan Zhou didn't know either.

It’s been a long time since I’ve eaten food made by Yuan Zhou. August and his group missed it very much and wanted to communicate with Yuan Zhou again. Therefore, the quota for this group of people was determined after some “discussions”. group.

To be honest, Yuan Zhou's reputation in Europe is not very prominent. One reason is that many food critics are quite resistant to Chinese food, such as the so-called "Chinese food effect" that Chu Xiao encountered before.

This time, it was after Chu Xiao used a video to make Yuan Zhou famous at a banquet hosted by a chef like August, which made many chefs have a little impression of the name Yuan Zhou. At least his knife skills are really outstanding. .

Also, during Yuan Zhou's solo exhibition, he amazed Manfred and August, then presidents of the Global Federation of Celebrity Chefs. At that time, someone uploaded a short video to Yuan Zhou for a live broadcast.

Yuan Zhou is in the European and American chef circle.

It can be summed up as follows: He is well-known among the top chefs in Europe and the United States.

The people vying for a few spots to come to Chengdu this time are all chefs who were tortured by the live broadcast on Twitter at Yuan Zhou's solo exhibition.

Except for Manfred, who asked for a spot in the name of the president for his own benefit, and August, the main executor, the remaining three people came with expectations.

Chef Moorman, known as the Crown of Denmark, as well as Finnish celebrity chef Morgan and Norwegian Western chef Hill.

"I am naturally looking forward to being able to let August, the chef, argue with Juman Li in person." Moorman said.

Hill and Morgan nodded.

"I also think Chef Juman Li has gone too far. The culture of every country needs to be respected." Hill added.

"Chef Juman Li has always been a fan of French cuisine, and even thinks that Western food is synonymous with French food." Morgan said: "In addition, Chef Juman Li's cooking skills are really strong, and no one can correct him."

"I think so too." Moorman said: "It's better not to talk about this. We are here to taste the delicious food."

Several of them are not too young, but they did not bring any disciples or assistants this time. Just like Doroma and others, they contacted the local guide here. Anyway, their main purpose was to discuss the cooking competition with Yuan Zhou. , Secondly, we are here to eat, and it doesn’t matter whether there is anyone accompanying us.

When it came to booking a hotel, it took a lot of effort and some favors to achieve the goal.

The tour guide was an old friend, Alex. This guy had registered with a foreign friend. Both Droma and Manfred were very satisfied.

When August and the others arrived, it happened to be the time in the afternoon when Yuan Zhou planned to start carving.

This was also a specially chosen time, in fact they arrived at noon.

"What are you doing with President Dorova and Chef August coming here this time?" Yuan Zhou greeted.

"Yuan, we meet again."

August and Manfred were both very enthusiastic. They put Yuan Zhou's status on the same level as them. Strength in the chef circle was more important than age.

By the way, Dorova is Manfred's last name.

"Nice to see you all again." Yuan Zhou nodded slightly towards them.

Guessing that they had something to do, they led a few people toward the backyard, which was a more suitable place to talk about things.

After asking everyone to sit down, Yuan Zhou poured each of them a glass of water. Naturally, it was officially certified water and had become an internet celebrity.

"This water is really good." August said after taking a sip.

Others are also quite satisfied with this water. As a top chef, his taste buds are relatively sensitive.

"Has there been any change in the cooking competition?" Yuan Zhou asked.

"There are small changes in the details, but you don't need to pay too much attention, Yuan. I'm here to inform you of the specific time to participate. The details have been drawn up. It's June 18th. If you can arrive two days in advance, I'm here to send you the invitation letter. "Yes." August said and took out a very beautiful post.

It clearly stated that Yuan Zhou, the president of the Chinese Federation of Celebrity Chefs, was invited to participate in the finals of the Bocuse Culinary Competition.

"Thank you." Yuan Zhou took it with both hands, looked at it, and put it away, then said: "Has the preliminary round started?"

As mentioned before, the Bocuse Cooking Competition is divided into two parts: the preliminary round and the final round.

At present, registration for the preliminary round is in full swing, but Yuan Zhou's quota has been determined in advance and will not affect the subsequent competition.

"Registration has started, and the next step is to wait." August said.

He is the chairman of this year's jury, so he is naturally very aware of the current progress.

"Is Yuan interested in going to watch it live?" August asked.

Yuan Zhou replied: "The store cannot be separated. I wonder if there are any video recordings of famous chefs on site?"

"Of course there is. It will be archived. It's not top secret. Yuan, if you need it, I'll get you a copy."

"Thank you, Chef Augusta." Yuanzhou thanked him. Watching more famous chefs cooking can help him absorb different things.

Although he was so good at cooking, he still had to study his opponents. August felt a little silent for the other contestants.

"Is there anything important that President Dorova is here for?" Yuan Zhou asked.

Yuanzhou felt that just sending an invitation letter, there was no need for so many people to come together, the team would be too luxurious.

"Ahem, I'm here to discuss some matters about the Sino-French exchange meeting with President Zhou, and then I'll just stop by and have a look." Manfred said calmly.

"Isn't it already scheduled after the cooking competition?" Yuan Zhou was a little confused.

Zhou Shijie had told him about this issue before, and he still remembered it relatively clearly.

"That's right, but there are some details that need to be finalized, and August is coming to your place this time, so I came with him." Manfred said it seriously, and he even believed it.

Yuan Zhou nodded and didn't say much. It was not surprising that there were many things that needed to be discussed when holding an exchange meeting for the first time.
