Chapter 449 [Thanks]
Everyone applauded and laughed again. This time it was a knowing laugh, and Mr. Li was really humorous.
Li Lianhai said: "As you get older, people will become sentimental, and more and more things will touch me. Family affection will move me, friendship will move me, changes in life will move me, and even a blue sky and green grass can move me for a long time. I am a little puzzled when I became so emotional."
Everyone laughed again.
Mr. Li said: "But what moved me the most was a meal with both color, fragrance and taste. When people get older, their teeth are not easy to use, their taste becomes weaker, and their appetite decreases. You may not understand that only at my age can you understand the true meaning of food as the most. In the past, people required to fill their stomachs, but with the development of society and the improvement of living standards, food and clothing have been no longer a problem. We started to study how to eat better. It is said that we never tire of eating fine meat and fine meat. I am not good at cooking, but I especially like to eat. In fact, most people in this world like to eat, and very few people who don't like to eat are all anorexia patients."
Su Le smiled and applauded first. Mr. Li's words were plain and down-to-earth, without any official accent. He had attracted everyone's attention while talking and laughing. This was the charm of language. He couldn't help but think of Mr. Li's daughter, Li Jingru, who had anorexia.
Mr. Li: "The reason why I came to participate in the launch conference of this cooking competition is not only because I am greedy, not only because of my personal feelings, but also because of a more important reason. I am very pleased to see that this group of young people can have such enthusiasm to promote and inherit Chinese food culture. If you want to inherit and develop this culture, you must attract everyone's attention. Although I am old, I am still willing to do my part to our traditional Chinese culture and add a lot of fire! Finally, I wish this cooking competition smoothly and a great success!"
Mr. Li's speech attracted warm applause from the audience.
Su Le finally understood that everyone's previous low-keyness was paving the way for Mr. Li's speech.
Next, Mr. Li was asked to write inscriptions on the spot. This link had been communicated with Mr. Li in advance. Mr. Li agreed happily and wrote the four big words "Don't Get Fucked" on the spot. Su Le asked someone to frame and copy it, and then hang it in various sub-venues.
Yu Qianqiu had a lot of affairs. When Mr. Li finished writing, he stood up and said goodbye. Su Le, Zong Youwen and Zan Xuejun took him to the car together. Su Le insisted and said, "Why don't Uncle Yu finish lunch before leaving?"
Yu Qianqiu said, "I can't help myself. Although I really want to taste the delicious food, I have to go back to receive foreign guests at noon. Most of my time is not my own." He sighed, looked into the distance, and found that his son Yu Long was chatting with female star Xu Xiuwen, and did not notice that he was leaving at all. Yu Qianqiu shook his head helplessly. He said to Su Le: "I'm leaving, I wish all the best in the cooking competition."
Su Ledao: "When the rankings are decided, Uncle Yu will be invited to present the awards in person."
Yu Qianqiu smiled and said, "No problem!" He smiled at Zan Xuejun and Zong Youwen again, and turned around to the car.
Several people stood there watching Yu Qianqiu's car go away.
Zong Youwen said: "I have to leave too, and many things are waiting for me to deal with."
Su Le did not try to keep him: "Brother Youwen, I'll drink together if I have time another day."
Zong Youwen smiled and patted his shoulder.
Zan Xuejun watched Zong Youwen leave and said to Su Le: "Mayor Yu is right. We are not our own time, but you are still as free and easy as you."
Su Lexin said that it is not easy for anyone to live by just watching thieves eat meat but not to be beaten.
After Mr. Li wrote the inscription, Chen Xi accompanied him to the VIP room to rest. According to their diligent rules, he invited a portrait of his ancestor Peng Keng and then placed a sacrifice. The most eye-catching one was a braised pig head.
The reporters took photos one after another, and Lancome introduced some customs in the cooking world.
Manzaiyuan presided over the sacrifice.
Lancome talked in front of the camera: "Food is the most important thing for people. Any country in the world has a traditional dietary civilization and other civilizations that reincarnate in history. Every region has unique eating habits and taste tendencies, and each has developed these exquisite skills into a custom and a culture, which has made countless diners linger in every corner of the world. In the east of Asia, a country with a long history of civilization, there are mouth-watering delicacies and heart-warming delicacies. Food and seasonings from all over the world are touching the nerves and taste buds of billions of people all the time, that is, Chinese food..."
The press conference went very smoothly, all the invited guests arrived, the news media also showed great cooperation, and no reporters raised any difficult questions.
The noon thank-you banquet was held in Manjianghong, and Mr. Li did not attend the thank-you banquet. Su Le knew that he liked quietness, so he specially arranged for Man Xiangrui and Chen Xi to accompany him to the Xinyuejiang Teahouse, and asked Zhu Xiaojiao to make some special dishes for the old man himself. Chen Xi accompanied him to chat, and Man Xiangrui accompanied him to play chess. As for Gao Dakuan, he did not let him go, Su Le was worried about Gao Dakuan's mouth, for fear that he would talk nonsense.
Another reason is that Gao Dakuan is a huge number. If he stays in Manjianghong, he will entertain those media people. Gao Dakuan’s ability to accompany him is definitely the best.
Man Zaiyuan and Liu Xianyang naturally became the guests of the luncheon. Su Le called Shang Yu Long, Mo Xiaoli, Su Mingzhu and Lancomeer accompanied him. When Man Xianggui heard that his uncle was coming, he naturally took all his skills to make a table of good dishes.
The proud boiling fish was brought to the table, but the Yuan Baiyuan didn't even move a single chopstick.
Man Zaiyuan commented: "Cooking is about color, fragrance, smell and shape. Just from the color alone, this dish is unqualified." In front of so many people criticizing Man Xianggui, Man Xianggui was naturally a little embarrassed, but this uncle from the distance was a master, so he was certainly convinced: "Uncle, I hope you will give me some advice."
Man Zaiyuan looked at Su Le and said, "Su Le, I heard that you were also a diligent person in the past and were the descendant of the Southeast chef Miao. Why not comment or comment?" He said that he asked Su Le to comment, but it meant that Su Le had a taste test of Su Le's level.
Su Le smiled and said, "Uncle Man, I almost treat Man Jianghong as my own kitchen. I can recite several dishes from Brother Xianggui like a stream. I have eaten this boiling fish dozens or hundreds of times. I really want to choose it, but I can't find any fault."
Man Zaiyuan smiled and said, "You don't want to say that the fish is yellow in color and the heat is not well controlled. A good boiling fish must be as delicate and white as jade. With bright red peppers, the red and white contrast can give people the greatest visual impact. Why do you have to put color first when cooking? The color of the dish is like a human appearance. If a person is beautiful, it will make people feel pleasing to the eye, and others will not be able to help but look at it a few more times. But if a person looks ordinary, it will be difficult to attract other people's attention. Everyone understands this simple truth, but there are not many that can be made. Xianggui. When I pointed out this to you, I emphasized this point to you. It seems that you didn't take it to your heart at all."
Man Xianggui looked embarrassed and said ashamed: "Uncle, I really disappointed your expectations."
Liu Xianyang ate the boiling fish and said, "Although the color is a bit bad, the taste is pretty good." This sentence somewhat saved Man Xianggui's face.
Lancome said: "There are quite a lot of food and food. Can you give you an exclusive interview after dinner?" She did not forget the main task she came here today.
Liu Xianyang smiled and said, "I am not a master, the real master is here!" He pointed to the Yuanxuan beside him.
Man Zaiyuan smiled and said, "It's better to leave the interview in the future. Anyway, we will all stay in Shenhai for a while. I will visit a few friends after lunch." He politely declined Lancome's request for the interview.
Su Mingzhu helped Lancome pick up food and said considerately: "Koer, don't just focus on work and eat more. I have lost a lot of weight recently."
Lancome smiled sweetly at her, and the two of them smiled and lost their grudges today. Su Le saw it and felt sad in his heart. Second sister, second sister, which one are you singing? He clearly broke up with Lancome, why did he suddenly make up again? Su Le really felt a little jealous.
Lancome and Su Mingzhu interacted frequently during this meal, and the two chatted and laughed, which was quite harmonious.
After lunch, Manzaiyuan and Liu Xianyang left first, and Su Le sent them out. For their convenience, Lao Mo was specially accompanied by his whole journey. It can be said that Manzaiyuan is the soul of this cooking competition and must ensure that he is satisfied.
Manzaiyuan asked Liu Xianyang to get in the car first, and then said to Su Le: "Su Le, I have something I want to ask you."
Su Le nodded and said, "Uncle Man, please tell me."
Manzaiyuan said: "I heard from Xiangrui that you had already met Long Tingbi yesterday?"
Su Le did not hide it and told Man Zaiyuan the details of seeing Long Tingbi yesterday. After hearing this, Man Zaiyuan frowned and sighed in a low voice: "That's it!"
Su Le said: "Uncle Man, we are all a little worried."
Man Zaiyuan said: "I haven't seen Long Tingbi for many years. He is a very talented person, but because of his bloodline, he is not accepted by the Chinese cooking industry. He suffered a lot of humiliation and setbacks during his cooking skills in China. I think he should be proud to let his adopted daughter compete this time."
Su Le said: "What I worry most is that they want to turn a cooking competition that aims to compete with skills to promote traditional Chinese food culture into a confrontation between Chinese and Japanese cuisine."
Manzaiyuan said: "It's hard to say what the idea of Longtingbi is. Don't panic. Everything will be determined after I meet him."
