The appearance of Sun Xiu added a lot of color to the opening ceremony, which also shows that the organizer spent a lot of money this time.

"After the last Chef King Championship, the organizer was criticized because he received too much money from the sponsors but did not promote the conference well. The person in charge at that time was even introduced and sent to prison for economic issues. It seems that the organizer of this conference has learned intelligence."

Hao Wang and Qiao Zhi were separated by two positions, shaking their heads and talking about inside information about the previous conference.

Qiao Zhi felt that Hao Wang was still too young, and even if he heard this news, he could not discuss it openly on such occasions.

There are still ears in the partition walls. If there are so many people in the venue, if the organizer hears it, wouldn’t they be targeted?

The industry's top events will never lack sponsors, and the organizers can make a lot of huge profits.

Only by helping sponsors increase their popularity through the influence of the conference can the conference be sustainable and held every year.

No matter what happened before, this conference should not be underestimated in terms of its momentum.

Whoever can get the title of King of Chef is definitely more meaningful than in previous sessions.

Four years have passed since the last conference. The rise of China's economy and new media have made this conference full of opportunities and variables.

The contestants present are all elites in the industry. Who doesn’t want to pass this competition to make the carp jump to the dragon gate?

Seed players selected by the eight major cuisine catering groups, as well as hidden masters from other small and medium-sized catering restaurants, are now holding back their energy.

Being in it, Qiao Zhi felt excited and was ready to roll up his sleeves and have a big fight.

Next is a series of leaders coming to the stage to speak.

Mei Ling sat in the leadership seat in the first row and delivered a speech as the organizer "Huaxia Food".

She wore a black suit, a white shirt, and long black hair. She seemed casual, but she was placed on her shoulders with great care. The silver jewelry on her chest shone with a cold light under the light, making her temperament look elegant and sharp.

Privately, Mei Ling is a talkative and enthusiastic sister.

But in public, she is definitely a strong woman with courage and means.

"All of you are all elites and big names in the catering industry. We are not only going to compete at our own level, but also preparing for the World Chef King Competition held in Yanjing next year. The world is very big, and food is one of the bridges to communicate culture.

I believe that everyone can feel the responsibility on their shoulders. You are not only the maker of food, but also the disseminator of Chinese food culture. The Chef King Competition is a platform to test everyone. Victory and failure are not important. The key is that everyone should realize that China's food culture needs to be inherited and promoted."

There were bursts of applause from below.

Qiao Zhi found that this conference was not only in the competition, but also in promoting some policy intentions of the upper class.

With the country's strength, China now emphasizes cultural development.

Food is one of the important channels for culture to go overseas.

Where there is Chinatown, there are Chinese restaurants. Chinese restaurants bloom all over the world, and countless foreigners like Chinese food.

But these Chinese foods are only tangible and do not contain culture. How to store culture in Chinese food requires a group of chefs to use their wisdom, package and integrate them into food.

Mei Ling's speech is at a very high level, and many contestants may not understand it.

But similar industry activities are constantly increasing, and people mention and discuss each time. Some ideas will penetrate into the cells and blood of the participants, and become something that is integrated into the bone marrow.

To put it more bluntly, it is advanced brainwashing.

Anyone rejects brainwashing.

But Qiao Zhi felt that brainwashing like Mei Ling could be more.

Although China's economy is developing rapidly, its society is becoming more and more impetuous, especially in industries that inherit ancient culture. Practitioners lack the spirit of the older generation of craftsmen.

Now many catering companies on the market frequently expose hygiene and food safety issues.

The practitioner lacks a sense of awe of profession in his bones.

The threshold for the catering industry is very low, almost everyone can operate it, but not everyone can afford the word "chef".

The so-called chef needs to have faith and spirit in his heart.

Seeing Qiao Zhi in a daze, Zhong Shi poked him with his arm, "What? Because he is an old acquaintance, he is obsessed?"

Mei Ling once appeared at the launch conference of the Huainan Group's internal selection competition, so all the players of Huainan Group know that Qiao Zhi has a good relationship with her.

Of course, some people may think that Mei Ling has long learned that Qiao Zhi has the identity of the prince-consort of Huainan Group, so she looks particularly high.

"Obsessed?" Qiao Zhi shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Do you think everyone is like you? When you see a beautiful woman, your eyes shine."

Zhong Shi smiled, "To be honest, this Editor-in-Chief Mei is really good-looking. I wonder if she is married?"

Qiao Zhi knew that Zhong Shi was deliberately testing him, so he simply shut up and ignored him.

Zhong Shi was so stung by Qiao Zhi again.

However, he seemed to be used to Qiao Zhi's behavior deafness and dumbness at any time.

The opening event was rich and exciting. After a series of leaders finished speaking, Sun Xiu and several young stars took to stage to perform, making the atmosphere on the scene very good.

Everyone has the illusion that they are not here to compete, but to attend a party.

Sun Xiu sang a song "May the beauty of the world meet you."

The eyes flashed, and every frown and smile showed tenderness and sweetness.

The soft and relaxed melody makes it seem like there is more honey in the air. If you take a breath, you will feel salivation from your mouth.

Although he is an actor, his singing skills have achieved professionalism and his voice is cool and thorough, with more ethereal and sadness than the original singer, making people immerse themselves in it.

"I didn't expect that Sun Xiu not only performed well in the opera, but also sang so well."

"She is from Yunhai Drama Academy, and of course she has two skills. In addition to acting in TV series, she also often performs dramas. The requirements for dramas are much higher than those for TV series. The lines, on-the-spot performance, and talent must be excellent."

"What a pity, Sun Xiu will say goodbye to us later."

"Hehe, if you perform well enough, there is a chance to meet Sun Xiu. The organizer invites her as the main judge of the final."

"Tsk tsk, is the organizer trying to turn this conference into a variety show?"

"You are really late. "Huaxia Food" has reached a cooperation with a Tianshi Video, and will broadcast this Chef King Competition to the outside world in the form of an online variety show."

"Then wouldn't I have to put on makeup first every day when I go on stage?"

"Yes, the big guys also need to pay attention to their image. Then go to the supermarket to buy some facial masks, facial cleansers, etc."

Then several actors went on stage to sing, and the effect was much less than Sun Xiu.

It’s not that he lacks popularity, but that he has stage experience and expressiveness, which is obviously several points inferior to Sun Xiu.

The artist industry is a big wave of storm, and every step is facing competition. Success requires a blacksmith to be strong himself.

After the opening ceremony, after half an hour of rest, everyone will go to several competition venues one by one to be inspected by the judges in the order of pre-machine arrangements.

The biggest problem in the preliminary round is not how strong the competitors are, but whether the judges you face can recognize the dishes you prepare.

What Huaixiang Group prepared for the contestants in advance not only included information about the opponents, but also information about the judges.

The information not only contains the positions of judges, but also their respective hobbies and tastes.

Of course, these are all information that all catering giants can easily obtain. Small and medium-sized catering companies do not have these means, so they must rely on the real skills of the contestants.

Qiao Zhi is No. 32 and is arranged in the second examination area, while Zhong Shi is No. 68 and is in the fifth examination area.

The two of them went to the waiting area to wait in the exam with their colleagues from the same exam area.

There are many people in the venue, which is even more lively than the festival.

In addition to the contestants, there are also some foodies who come here. There are many internet celebrity anchors, who want to see with their own eyes whether there are any special foods at the Chef King Competition Conference.

Suddenly, a surprise voice came from behind, "Qiao Zhi, is it you?"

The light diffused on the woman's face, Wen Yu's skin was rosy, and the ivory white neck reflected lightly. The peach blossom eyes seemed to be bathed in the rain, staring at herself with water.

The long hair is tied into a ponytail, and a heart-shaped hairband is tied to the root of the hair, and his pretty face is like a crescent moon.

I was stunned for five seconds.

Qiao Zhi looked in the voice and was slightly stunned, "Shen Bing?"

"Yes! What a coincidence."

Shen Bing is Qiao Zhi’s college classmate and the school beauty.

At that time, many people were pursuing her. Qiao Zhi had almost no other intersection except for a class event and had a few words to her.

Qiao Zhi remembers that Shen Bing fell in love with Cao Changbo, a famous figure in college. It was a romantic love story on campus for talented men and beautiful women. It was quite envious and jealous at the time.

Qiao Zhi was a trivial little invisible in college, while Shen Bing was the topic.

Shen Bing recognized Qiao Zhi at a glance, which moved Qiao Zhi quite.

"Are you also leading the team to participate in the Chef King Championship? Which company do you work in?" Shen Bing smiled.

"Yes! I'm just a slut." Qiao Zhi smiled and said nothing more, "Where are you?"

Shen Bing handed a business card to Qiao Zhi, and someone called her not far away.

"The preliminaries will start later. I have to rush over and arrange them. This is my business card. We will contact you later. Remember to call me on your own."

Qiao Zhi held Shen Bing's business card in his hand, "Xixiang Group" - Brand Promotion Department?

Shen Bing's ancestral home is Xiangnan. After graduating from Qiongjin's university, he returned to his hometown to apply for a job.

They are studying hotel catering management and are well-known throughout the country. In addition, Shen Bing has a good image and temperament, so it is easy to find a suitable starting point in large enterprises.

I heard from my roommate Hu Zhanjiao that after Cao Changbo graduated, he went to a multinational hotel, and the two probably have broken contact now.

This is how love was in college, and we talked vigorously and resolutely.

When they part, they are also extremely decisive.

This is what is called "dare to love and hate"?

When Shen Bing talked with Qiao Zhi, he kept smiling, which made Qiao Zhi feel quite comfortable.

No wonder Shen Bing liked her in college.

Although she is pretty, she has no airs at all and smiles with anyone.

Qiao Zhi put away his business card and thought to himself that since she was so polite, she would contact her after the preliminaries were over.

If it is convenient for her, you can treat her to a meal.
Chapter completed!
