Chapter 167 Official Competition (1)
Chapter 167 Official Competition ([-])
In the next few days, the business will continue to open smoothly.
Until the day of the 28th, after finishing his busy work at noon, Xu Yang knew that he should announce the game tomorrow and post the location of the store entrance to let everyone know what was going on.
It's not like running in vain and waiting for the restaurant to open.
After editing a circle of friends, Xu Yang sent it.
Soon there were messages below.
"Congratulations, Master Xu, I believe you must be fine."
"Master Xu, I'm optimistic about you."
"Master Xu, I will definitely cheer for you."
"It seems that I won't have the chance to taste Master Xu's delicacies in the past few days."
"........."
As for the messages, Xu Yang responded one by one as before.
Congratulations messages can be replied in a unified way, like other messages should naturally be replied individually.
"Don't worry, everyone. Tomorrow is the time for the competition. We should be able to open normally the day after tomorrow. The business hours will be notified in the circle of friends."
After almost replying to the message, Xu Yang answered another call.
"Hey Brother Xu, is there a game tomorrow?"
"Yes, November 11 is my competition day."
Yang Xiaotian is very busy these days, and there is no contact between the two.
It was said that they were busy signing contracts with big clients, but after their company's efforts, they finally managed to win the contract.
Although the amount was very low in the end, for them, after this time, there will be many customers who come here because of their reputation.
Large customers are originally used for publicity, and the effect is better than making money from them. Maybe if you do it well, it will help the company with publicity and promotion.
"Brother Xu, I would like to congratulate you here in advance. As for the hard work, I don't think there is any need to say it. With your current cooking skills, you will take out the two dishes of the ten-star set meal and the six-star set meal to participate in the competition. I'm not worried about advancing to the next round casually."
"Xiaotian, are you so confident in me?"
Yang Xiaotian said with a smile: "Brother Xu, I don't have confidence in you, but I have confidence in your cooking skills. If I don't advance to the next round of the competition, I would rather believe that there is an inside story than that it is your chef." Art has a problem."
"Hahahaha." This sentence made Xu Yang couldn't help laughing.
But he knew what Yang Xiaotian said made sense.
As far as my current cooking skills are concerned, no customer has ever raised any questions about the taste, which means that he is very good at it.
He figured it wouldn't be a problem to get a No. 1 in the end.
There is no desire to hide my cooking skills.
Getting the 20th place, the ranking is very high, may attract everyone's attention, but it will be forgotten soon after leaving the field, and the reputation points obtained will inevitably be limited.
If you get the 10th place, then it is possible to enter the next round of the provincial competition, it will be remembered by more people, it will also attract everyone's attention, and the speed of gaining reputation points will increase a lot.
Of course, being able to win No.3 will definitely attract the attention of most people. Whether it is the audience, contestants or judges, they will all look at him with admiration and remember him. He can get the top three results among hundreds of people.
But if he can get No.1, he will not only be given a chance by these people, but also remembered by contestants from other cities.
The pressure brought to people by No.1 and No.3 is completely different.
Moreover, the prestige value that one can obtain will inevitably exceed that of No. 3. I don't know how much.
What Xu Yang lacks most now is reputation.
He will definitely not give up such an opportunity, the best choice is to win No.1 results in a row in order to gain more reputation points.
If there is still a long time before the competition, it is possible that he will keep a low profile and not go towards No. 1.
Precisely because of the lack of prestige points, to prepare for the following competitions, it is necessary to get the best ranking.
"Brother Xu, I will come to watch your game tomorrow."
"Then remember to make an appointment. If you don't have an appointment, you won't be able to come in." Xu Yang reminded.
I originally thought that the inspection should not be very strict, so I can still go in if I ask.
Who knows that the inspection is very strict, not only to check whether there is an appointment, but also to conduct a safety inspection, in order to ensure the normal progress of the game and no problems in the middle.
So a reservation is a must.
It's just that the contestants can't bring people in.
Don't come here tomorrow if you can't get in.
The number of reservations is limited. If you want to make a temporary reservation tomorrow, there is basically no way.
The venue inside is not big, and there are not many seats for viewing.
"Don't worry, I will make an appointment later, and I will definitely be able to watch the game at the scene tomorrow."
"That's fine."
After saying this, Yang Xiaotian said again: "By the way, Brother Xu, I came to you for another matter."
Xu Yang had already thought of something, and took the initiative to ask: "It was the one who asked me what reward I needed before, right?"
"Yeah, yes, Mr. Du came to urge me again, Brother Xu, you should think about it, otherwise I will be urged like this every day."
Xu Yang understood that if he didn't choose, Du Shaoyuan would urge him every day, and he would only stop after he gave the answer.
After thinking for a while, he said, "Okay, I will give you a result as soon as possible. At that time, it will be a big deal and you can just choose something."
In fact, Xu Yang has already thought of a way, but he has been busy recently, so he has no time.
Hearing Xu Yang say as soon as possible, Yang Xiaotian could only say helplessly: "Then I hope Brother Xu will hurry up."
"no problem."
After hanging up the phone, Xu Yang posted the notice on the door and left.
…………
The next morning, Xu Yang got up at 7:[-], tidied up and walked towards the culinary association.
When he got to the door, he called Wang Dongjie.
"Hey, brother, where have you been?"
"We are on the car coming here, and we will arrive in about 10 minutes. Have you arrived yet?"
I heard that there are still 10 minutes left, which is not particularly far away.
Xu Yang nodded and said: "Yes, I was at the door just now and wanted to ask where you were. Since there are still 10 minutes left, I will wait for you at the door."
"Okay, we'll come right over."
After waiting for less than 10 minutes, two people appeared in sight.
"Xu Yang."
"Brother Jie, Gao Yi, the two of you are finally here."
"Long time no see, you seem to gain weight again." Wang Dongjie said jokingly.
Xu Yang nodded: "I can't help it. I used to eat four times a day sometimes, and each meal was a lot. It was hard not to gain weight. Aren't you the same?"
Xu Yang had no choice.
He decides the set meals that other guests eat every day, but he decides what he eats himself, and he can eat whatever he wants every day.
Although I eat it every day, I still eat more each time. It is really normal to gain weight slowly.
"Okay, let's go in first, the game will start later."
"it is good."
The three of them walked over together.
The staff at the door stopped them.
"Three people, if you are a reserved audience coming to watch the cooking competition, please show your reservation information. If you are a chef coming to participate in the competition, please show your registration form and identity information."
Then the three of them began to take out the things they had prepared in advance.
Xu Yang and Gao Yi quickly took it out and waited for Wang Dongjie.
However, Wang Dongjie felt nothing on his body.
The two saw his troubles and asked, "Brother Jie, what's wrong with you?"
Wang Dongjie said with a bad expression: "I can't find my registration form information. I remember putting it on me when I went out in the morning, but now I can't find it."
"Look for it again, maybe it's in a certain pocket."
Wang Dongjie looked around again, but found nothing.
At this time, Gao Yi suddenly said: "Brother Jie, I saw you put it in your trouser pocket last night, but didn't you get dirty when you ate last night? Then you changed a pair of trousers, didn't you put them in your pants pocket last night?" A pair of trousers were not taken out."
After his reminder, Wang Dongjie seemed to remember.
"It seems that I put it in advance. Who knew that the pants were dirty, so I forgot to take them out."
Xu Yang frowned and said, "Brother Jie, it's still a while before the deadline for admission. Why don't you go back and get it quickly?"
"we can only do this."
Then I asked the staff, today is the penultimate day of the game, and the official start time is [-]:[-] am.
The closing time for admission is 8:50.
The three of them looked at the time, and it happened to be 8 o'clock.
If there is no traffic jam, it will take about 20 minutes to get back and forth from here, which seems to be no problem.
Wang Dongjie quickly took a taxi and left the door.
The remaining two look at me, I look at you, and finally Xu Yang said: "Let's wait outside, anyway, it's too late until 8:50, let's wait until 8:48, if he doesn't If we can get there, we'll go in."
It's no one else's fault, it's just his bad luck.
When is it not good to get dirty, but it was dirty last night and I forgot to take it out.
He couldn't participate in the competition. Xu Yang definitely wanted to participate, otherwise it would be too long to wait for three years.
The two have been waiting outside, seeing more and more people entering, and the time has come to 8:40, some began to worry.
The staff at the door also came over at this time and said: "You two have been standing at the door for a long time, why don't you go in first, the deadline is coming soon."
Xu Yang shook his head: "Let's wait."
"Okay, please pay attention to the time."
"Thank you."
"It's all right."
After speaking, Xu Yang quickly sent a message to Wang Dongjie.
"Brother Jie, where are you?"
"The map shows that there are still 900 meters away from the destination, but there is some traffic jam ahead, and I don't know what's going on."
Xu Yang thought for a while and said, "Brother Jie, there must be something wrong. There are too many uncertain factors in the traffic jam. I suggest you get out of the car and run over here."
After the message was sent out, Wang Dongjie didn't reply, and Xu Yang didn't know what was going on.
Seeing that it was getting closer and closer to 8:48, the two began to walk slowly towards the door.
8 points.
8 points.
Still haven't seen Wang Dongjie's identity.
Xu Yang could only shake his head and said, "Let's go, it's almost time."
As soon as he finished speaking, Gao Yi pointed in one direction and said, "Look, brother Jie is here."
It was only then that Xu Yang realized that he had accepted his suggestion and rushed all the way here.
I was out of breath when I ran to the door, and the time was exactly 8:48.
Xu Yang smiled and said: "Let's go in first, there are still 2 minutes before the deadline for admission, if you miss it, you will lose a lot."
"it is good."
The three walked to the door again to show their registration forms and identity information.
After carefully checking one by one, the staff nodded and said: "Okay, there is no problem with the registration information. Originally, the order of the competition was to be drawn, but because the three of you were the last to pass, there are only three tags left. You Make your choice.”
"Ok."
It was only then that the three noticed that there was information about the extraction label next to it.
Then the three directly divided the labels.
After opening it, Wang Dongjie first said, "I am number 15."
Gao Yi also said at this time: "I am No. 36."
Finally it was Xu Yang's turn. When he opened it, he looked at it and said with a smile: "I am No. 33."
After looking at the labels they drew, the staff took out three number plates and said: "These three number plates correspond to the order you drew out, and they will be cooked in this order when they come to the stage later. No. 15 It should be in the second round, and then your Nos. 33 and 36 will be assigned in the third round, pay attention to their respective on-stage time."
"Ok."
"Go in. There are special road signs to guide you to the resting place for the contestants. If you have any questions, you can ask the staff and they will answer them."
"Thank you."
"Should be."
The three of them did not stay at the door, and followed the guiding signs to the chef's resting place.
When I first entered, it was very noisy inside. When I walked in, I saw that there were still a lot of people inside.
Xu Yang observed it, and if the count was correct, it should be 70 people.
According to the allocation of 10 people in one round, a total of 7 rounds of the game can be ended.
That's seven hours of game time.
At this time, Gao Yi said with a smile: "No. 30 is not bad. Although the competition time will be earlier, it will not be so nervous. You can also know your score as soon as possible, and you can leave early."
"Yes, if more than 60 numbers are drawn, wouldn't it take more than six hours to board, and probably wait until the afternoon, and it would be better to compete earlier." Wang Dongjie also said.
Whether to play first or play later is no problem for Xu Yang.
There is still one more day tomorrow, and today I can only see the approximate ranking, not the final ranking.
And after the competition, according to what Song Yi said, he had to watch the video of the contestants who could enter the second round in detail.
If the rules are violated and the ranking of the competition needs to be cancelled, then a substitute will be substituted according to the ranking.
So I don't know the result until the end.
If you pass the competition, there will be a call from the staff.
If you don't pass the competition, it's just a text message at most.
After all, if you didn't pass the competition, even a phone call would be meaningless and increase your workload, just send a text message.
After passing the competition, there will be a second round of competition, so notifications will naturally be in place.
If the text message notification is not seen, it means that the next game will be missed.
If it doesn't pass, it doesn't matter even if you don't see the text message. Anyway, if you don't pass it, it's useless to know it.
Xu Yang smiled and said, "Okay, you must be serious in the competition later, and don't make mistakes."
"Do not worry."
"No problem, we'll take care."
"That's good."
