Chapter 2434 Kill the First Sheep First to Liven up the Party
Horace failed to dial Fergus's number.
After staring at the bracelet in silence for a moment, Horace stood up and left with a pale face.
Charlie and Bart hurriedly followed, avoiding the strange looks of the staff along the way, and asked in panic: "Brother, what should we do?"
"I have been abandoned by the Dixon family. If you don't want to spend the rest of your life in prison, leave before the law enforcement officers arrive." After Horace finished speaking, his pace quickened a few points, and when he arrived outside, he immediately took out the flying car and drove away.
Charlie and Bart looked at the flying car in a daze, hesitated for a moment, and drove away.
"Did Director Huo, Charlie and Bart run away?"
A staff member at the scene happened to take a picture of this scene and posted it anonymously on the Internet, which triggered another discussion.
...
In Tucker City, Dixon Manor.
"It seems that you didn't handle the morning matter well." On the sofa in the villa, Morin looked at Fergus calmly and said.
"Originally, the matter had been suppressed, but I didn't expect the military to suddenly intervene." Fergus lowered his head, looking a little nervous.
"I also heard that the kid who sent the micro-tweet was assassinated in Mocha Building this morning." Morin looked at Fergus, "You did it, right?"
Fergus's face changed slightly, and after a slight hesitation, he nodded and said, "My grandson was reckless."
"Dealing with people who raise questions has always been what we chaebols are good at, and it has almost become a routine in the past tens of thousands of years." Morin smiled, but his eyes suddenly became sharp, "Times have changed. Today's underground city is no longer under our control. Your little cleverness, in the eyes of those people, is nothing but a joke."
Fergus's back was covered with cold sweat. He didn't expect that the assassin he sent out would fail to deal with a chef who was only a third-level water magician.
Now that the military has expressed its position, the micro-tweet has completely turned to the military side. On the Internet, the black material about Horace is flying all over the sky, and it has completely lost control.
"How are you going to deal with Horace?" Morin looked at Fergus.
Fergus thought for a moment and said, "The dead are the best scapegoats. His many bad deeds have been exposed, and what awaits him is only life imprisonment. Committing suicide out of fear of crime is a very reasonable behavior."
"Go ahead, clean up the mess you made yourself, and don't leave any handle for the McCarthy family." Morin raised his hand and said.
"Yes." Fergus bowed slightly and saluted, then quickly left the villa.
"Interesting, I didn't expect that person to even intervene in such a matter. Is he preparing for another big move?" Morin stood up and stood by the window, with a cold smile on his lips.
...
The top floor of the Twin Towers.
Akali's bracelet is in dual-screen mode, one side is the live broadcast interface of the Chef King Contest, and the other side is micro-push.
"Horace, this old bastard, has done so many bad things. I even had dinner with him last time. Now that I think about it, it's really disgusting!"
"But this old bastard seems to have a good relationship with Fergus? Humph, they are like-minded and neither of them is a good thing!"
"So it seems that
Hades is really handsome and super righteous! No, I want to give him money!"
Akali muttered, clicked on several fan groups with tens of thousands of people, and started to send red envelopes.
...
"Miss Nancy, take a look at the current micro-tui."
Nancy, who was about to close the bracelet, received a message from the director.
Nancy glanced in the direction of the director. Johnny's expression was a little anxious. Did something go wrong before the show started?
Clicking on the micro-tui hot search list, the hot searches made her stunned.
The news about Horace had been downgraded and removed from the hot search list, but at this moment, six of the top ten hot searches were related to Horace, and the top three were directly occupied.
Nancy quickly found the reason, which made her expression even more surprised.
"The military is out?" Nancy bit her lip. This was a little unexpected.
If this is the case, the Dixon family has obviously given up on Horace and should be busy cutting off their ties with Horace at this moment.
Nancy should be happy to see the Dixon family suffer a setback and the murderer Horace fall.
But now is the eve of the broadcast of the Chef King Contest, and there are only seven minutes left in the countdown, but the popularity on the Internet is completely on another event, which is not a good thing for the show.
After a little thought, her eyes were fixed on the seventh on the hot search list, and she sent a message to Johnson: Let the publicity department push the hot search seven to the hot search one.
Johnson's eyes lit up when he received the message, and he immediately got up to make arrangements.
Soon, the topic of the seventh on the hot search list: "Chef King Contest contestant Hades Justice Brother!" The popularity began to rise rapidly and climbed directly to the hot search one.
The second hot search was "Military Secretariat likes Hades".
The trigger of the Horace incident was that Hades forwarded and commented on the message, which then caused a series of reactions.
The injustice of a girl who was humiliated and committed suicide was redressed, and Horace's beastly crimes were exposed, precisely because of Hades's brave and righteous cry.
So people did not feel disgusted with this hot search, but spontaneously added bricks and tiles to increase the heat of the topic.
At this time, the program team's water army began to frantically attract traffic for the program.
"Brother Justice is participating in the Chef King Competition, let's go support him!"
"Justice will not be absent, and so will we! We want Brother Justice to become the Chef King!"
"I just want to see what such a righteous little brother looks like in real life!"
"Brother Hades's PK value is so low! I want to give him a ranking!"
The comments of the navy were mixed with the support of passerby fans. People who took a break from surfing began to click on the live broadcast interface and give Hades a PK value.
The live viewing ratings of the King of Chef Competition began to rise linearly, and the number of viewers on the single WeChat channel has exceeded 500 million, exceeding the peak of the finals of the previous season, which is also the highest this season.
"Get ready to start recording the show." Nancy sent a message to Johnson and turned off the bracelet.
She couldn't help but look at Mag on the stage. He was hired temporarily by the program team. She had read the information and found out that he was a trainee under a small agency. In addition to his handsome appearance, he also had good cooking skills. This was Trainees from other companies couldn't compare, so I chose him in the end.
Now it seems that this choice can be said to be extremely successful.
Not only did it offset the negative impact of the Jasper incident, but the Horace incident caused a loss for the Dixon family, and it also brought huge traffic to the show. It can be said that it kills two birds with one stone.
"If his cooking skills pass the test, it would be a good choice to let him enter the semi-finals. It should be able to continue the popularity for a while." Nancy thought, but whether he can pass the test depends on his true level of cooking skills.
"Countdown to program recording, 10, 9, 8..."
Johnny started the countdown, and the contestants and judges got into position for filming.
Mag looked forward with a natural expression. Xi had already trained him before coming to the camera training. He knew how to express himself comfortably in front of the camera and always maintained a handsome and elegant posture.
At the end of the countdown, the camera cut to the center of the stage. Two hosts, one male and one female, appeared. They announced with a smile that the quarterfinals of the King of Kitchen Competition had officially begun, and then introduced the top eight contestants and the ten professional judges.
When Mag was introduced, more shots and nice words were given.
Mag is quite satisfied with this, which shows that the program team is still determined to fight for some fairness for him.
"Is this Brother Zhengyi? I love you!"
"This young man has thick eyebrows and big eyes. He is a handsome young man."
"Fuck, this smile, Mom, I'm in love..."
The barrage filled the screen, showing that netizens are paying attention to Mag.
After a round of introductions, two commercials were inserted, and the host announced that the quarterfinals had officially begun.
"The rules of this quarter-finals have been greatly changed from the previous rules. The program team only provides an ingredient library, but no longer limits the dishes. Each contestant can choose the ingredients he needs from the food library. Within two hours, Finish cooking within 1 minute, finish first, judge first.
The professional judging panel will make a comprehensive score based on the performance of the contestants.
In order to reflect the fairness of this quarter-finals, we have revised the ratio of online scoring to the total score of the on-site judges from 2:8 to 1:9. "The host announced the new rules.
The on-site players have been notified in advance, so there is no doubt about this.
Even if the rules are modified, Hades' current PK value is almost zero, which is equivalent to losing ten points to compete with them, and the impact will not be big.
However, the viewers who have been following the show are a little bit upset.
"Why change the rules temporarily? This is too unfair to our brother!"
"Is this a temporary change of the rules for Brother Zhengyi to join? As expected of a man praised by the Secretariat, he is so tough behind the scenes!"
"Brother Zhengyi wants to advance to the semi-finals, it is still a hell-level difficulty."
"If you don't vote and I don't vote, how can Brother Zhengyi enter the semi-finals? PK is worth voting!"
With the help of a large number of passer-by fans, Mag's PK value soared rapidly from more than one million, soon exceeded five million, and quickly climbed towards 10 million.
Mag knew nothing about this. He only had one idea in his mind right now, which was to open up a ten-point gap with the fourth-place player and advance to the semi-finals.
The food library is open, and hundreds of ingredients appear on the big screen, ranging from seafood to mountain delicacies.
"I want a yellow arowana."
"I want a black jade turtle, one..."
The contestants began to choose the dishes they wanted.
This ingredient library contains the ingredients required for all the dishes in the contest, which can avoid the embarrassment of the contestants having nothing to cook.
Mag was ranked eighth, listening quietly and calmly as the contestants selected all kinds of extremely precious ingredients.
"Now, ask the Hades players to choose the ingredients they need." The host looked at Mag and said.
"I need a Hailey sheep, three lemons..." Mag said a list of ingredients.
"Haili Sheep? Is he planning to cook mutton in the King of Chef Competition?" At the judges' table, the gray-haired old chef Hunter said in surprise.
"It's a bit strange. You have to know that other contestants chose top-quality ingredients, but he only chose an ordinary Hailey sheep." The judges next to him also agreed.
"Maybe he can make mutton delicious?" Nancy smiled.
"That's quite exciting." Old Hunter followed.
Mag's choice of ingredients also aroused discussion among netizens.
The Yellow Arowana is an eighth-level monster that only appears in the arctic waters of the northwest. It is rare and powerful. It is an extremely precious existence. Most people have never even seen it, let alone tasted it.
The Mysterious Jade Turtle is even more precious. It is said that its shell is a natural jade. If its diameter exceeds ten centimeters, it will be considered for auction. This shows how precious this Mysterious Jade Turtle is.
The ingredients selected by the other contestants are also extremely precious.
Why is the Chef King Contest so popular?
In addition to the professionalism and fun that the food variety shows on the market lack, the fact that the director team is not short of money is also a major selling point.
Here, you can see how many precious ingredients that you have never seen before are cooked into delicacies, and there are also a group of masters tasting and introducing them on the spot.
The top ingredients such as the black jade turtle appeared in the quarterfinals. This program team is simply inhumane, okay? !
It is precisely because of this that when there are many precious ingredients in the ingredient library, Mag actually chose a black sheep as the main ingredient, which is really surprising.
"This country bumpkin, can't he know high-end ingredients at all?"
The contestants on the same stage couldn't help but look at Mag twice, and almost had the same idea in their hearts.
Top ingredients often only need simple cooking to present the ultimate deliciousness, and cooking skills can be magnified by the ingredients, so as to get good scores from the judges.
This is a recognized knowledge point in the Chef King competition, and it is also followed by everyone.
"I want to see whether you are playing badly or are absolutely confident." Nancy looked at Mag with interest, with a little more expectation in her eyes.
The ingredients of the contestants were served one after another. Each high-end ingredient was given a close-up shot, and the host introduced it just right, satisfying the audience's curiosity.
When the black sheep was brought to the stage, the audience's interest was reduced a lot.
Heili sheep is a specialty of Heili grassland. Although it is three times more expensive than ordinary sheep, it is still an ingredient that can be easily found in vegetable markets everywhere.
Mag reached out and touched the head of the black and shiny goat, and nodded with satisfaction. This sheep was evenly fat and thin, and had a strong physique, which met his requirements very well.
He knew what others thought, but it did not affect his mood at all.
No matter how good the ingredients are, without the cooking skills to match them, it would just be a waste of ingredients.
Yellow dragon fish, black jade turtle... He had never even seen these precious ingredients. It was completely nonsense for him to choose one to cook and make delicious food.
But sheep are different. He is familiar with this thing. He can also cook it.
"The two-hour countdown starts now. Please start cooking!" The host's voice sounded.
A 2:00 countdown appeared in the upper right corner of the contestants' workbench.
The contestants began to process the ingredients and prepare for cooking.
Mag took the kitchen knife from the knife rack and led the sheep to the slaughter area.
Others' first step is to kill fish and turtles, but his first step is to slaughter sheep.
