2211 Chapter 2210-stepping on stage

"Although I respect Mr. Auguste, it's not right to give Chinese chefs such great privileges."

"I'm going all out this time. What Chinese chef can do?" Podraco thought silently in his heart. He didn't say anything to make things difficult for Yuan Zhou, as that would affect the authority of the competition.

Looking at Yuan Zhou who was almost out of his sight, podraco was full of confidence. He had always thought that his French cuisine was impeccable. The only person who was a little threatening was Chu Xiao, but Chu Xiao was too young.

Podraco was in his forties and was the pillar of traditional French cuisine. He was also the most popular chef for the gold medal in this year's bogus world cooking competition.

Similar to ju man Li, podraco did not like Chinese cuisine and looked down on Asian chefs, but he was still considered to have real skills.

Podraco ignored the others who greeted him and led his team toward the car. He intended to take the car to the venue.

Yuan Zhou led master Cheng and walked towards the meeting place at a steady pace. He had chosen some small alleys that only people could pass through. Cars couldn't pass through them. Yuan Zhou didn't know if the meeting place was under martial law, but he didn't see anyone when he walked over.

Although each step seemed slow, the two of them were actually moving at a very fast pace.

Fifty meters away from the entrance of the venue, there were two rows of reporters with all kinds of cameras. As the largest cooking competition in the world, it was definitely not a small scene.

When Yuan Zhou brought master Cheng to the entrance for participants, he suddenly saw a familiar figure.

She was wearing a rose-red dress that accentuated her fair and delicate skin. Her beautiful facial features were exquisite, and her long black hair was tied up in a bun with a dark red wooden hairpin. The beautiful Oriental woman attracted a lot of attention. There were also enthusiastic and hearty foreign men who ran up to her to strike up a conversation, but the beauty ignored them.

"It's little ya. " A faint smile appeared on the corner of Yuan Zhou's mouth. He asked master Cheng to wait there and then walked toward the entrance of the restaurant.

When he got closer, Yuan Zhou found that Yin ya had dressed up carefully today and looked very beautiful.

"Xiao Ya, why are you here? are you done with work?" Yuan Zhou arrived in front of Yin ya in just a few steps.

"Blockhead, I wish you success. I'm here to cheer you on." Yin ya's eyes lit up when she saw Yuan Zhou and she immediately revealed a big smile.

Yin ya went up and hugged Yuan Zhou. She saw Yuan Zhou after only a few minutes, so she was very excited.

As Yin ya got closer, a fragrant smell directly hit the tip of Yuan Zhou's nose. Yuan Zhou felt warm in his heart. Even though he had been pulling a long face, he still couldn't help revealing a smile.

"Thank you, Xiao Ya. I will definitely do my best." Yuan Zhou said.

"Blockhead will definitely win!" Yin ya let go of Yuan Zhou and nodded affirmatively with a red face.

She was very confident in Yuan Zhou, but that didn't stop her from cheering him on. This was the common thought of all the people who came to watch the competition.

No matter if it was Zhou Shijie, the customers of the restaurant, or even the group of three-star Michelin chefs who had specially asked for leave to come back, all of them had extraordinary confidence in Yuan Zhou. They just wanted to see Yuan Zhou conquer the bogus world cooking competition.

"Is your workplace far from here?" After Yuan Zhou reacted, he started to care about Yin ya's safety.

"Don't worry, my colleague Jin min came with me. She went to the bathroom. Our office is not far from here. I didn't tell you that the company was nearby when they went on a business trip. There will be no problem. " Yin ya said with a smile.

"That's good. " Yuan Zhou nodded his head and didn't say anything else.

Yin ya had originally prepared a gift for Yuan Zhou, but she knew Yuan Zhou's rules very well. He would definitely wash everything before cooking and would only give it to him after the competition.

As the preparation time was approaching, the two of them didn't chat for too long. After Yin ya's colleague came back, the two of them bade each other farewell and went their separate ways.

By the time Yuan Zhou led master Cheng into the preparation room from the entrance, most of the contestants had already arrived.

As soon as Yuan Zhou walked in, he was immediately looked at by everyone. After all, he was the only one with an Asian face in the whole restaurant and thus was very conspicuous.

"So, you're a chef with special privileges?"

"I've heard famous chef ju man mention it before. "

"It's the first time that a Chinese chef has entered the final circle of the European competition."

Yuan Zhou had already gotten used to the attention of others. These gazes were not even a drizzle of the black crow 'S. He walked towards his room very calmly.

In order to let the chefs perform to their best and to ensure the competition was fair and open, the organizers had drawn a number in advance, which was the number of each room.

That's right. Each participant had their own room. It was quite big inside. As soon as Yuan Zhou entered, he found the room was about 50 square meters, which was quite huge.

Thinking carefully, Yuan Zhou was the only one who came here alone. The other contestants had all brought a team of chefs. Of course, according to the rules of the competition, one person could only bring three assistants at most, and the assistants could only be the sous-chef or disciples.

Otherwise, it wouldn't be fair for two chefs with good cooking skills to be in a team.

"Zhao Mei, after you go on stage later, you can find a place by yourself and try to learn." Yuan Zhou explained.

"Alright, master." Cheng zhaomei nodded hard.

Yuan Zhou intended to bring Cheng zhaomei to the competition ground to experience the atmosphere. More importantly, he wanted to observe the cooking skills of various chefs at a close distance so that he could learn from them.

As for Cheng zhaomei's learning ability, Yuan Zhou trusted her very much. He had already experienced her learning ability before he accepted her as his disciple.

This was also the reason why Yuan Zhou had gone to great lengths to bring master Cheng to the competition this time. Otherwise, Yuan Zhou would definitely have come to Lyon alone out of habit.

The other participants didn't know what was going on. When they saw Yuan Zhou only brought one person with him, they felt that this chef was a little arrogant.

There were historical precedents. Those who were arrogant in this level of competition would not have a good result.

Yuan only has one assistant?" Steele and Julian gathered together again.

"I don't know. I'll just have to go all out later. Both podraco and Yuan are very strong opponents." Julian's idea was simple. No matter who the opponent was, he just had to give it his all.

After hearing this, Steele felt that it was very reasonable, so he nodded and began to think about the dish that he would cook later.

Podraco, who was in a better state of mind, looked around and sized up the chefs he thought were more threatening. His gaze stopped on Butler and Julian for a long time.

Soon, the cooking competition officially began.

First, the contestants were led to the stage by the competition staff. There were already twenty separate stoves on the stage.

There were quite a lot of audience members from all over the world. Regardless of whether they knew the chefs, as soon as Yuan Zhou and his friends went on stage, they started to cheer. The atmosphere was quite good.
