The applause lasted for three minutes. Yuan Zhou clapped so hard that even his palm was a little red. As a matter of fact, Yuan Zhou first knew about Zhang Yan a long time ago. At that time, he was still working as a logistics worker in the kitchen. He had heard the head chef talk about President Zhang and his words were filled with admiration.
Yuan Zhou knew the head chef quite well. At that time, the head chef had a very sharp tongue. When he heard the disdainful expression of a certain chef, the admiration in his words was very rare. Yuan Zhou could still remember the first time he met Chairman Zhang three years ago at the Sichuan cuisine exemplary restaurant. Now that he thought about it, he had a lot of feelings.
“The era of Sichuan cuisine has come to an end.” Yuan Zhou thought in his heart.
Zhou Shijie stood up. It was his turn to speak as the chairman of the chef’s Association. He said,””Sichuan cuisine is one of the brightest cuisines among the many cuisines in China. Therefore, the selection of the chairman of the Sichuan cuisine Association has always been of utmost importance. As for the nomination for the new president, it was unanimously passed. “
“Let’s congratulate head chef Cheng on his appointment as the chairman of the Sichuan cuisine Association. One last thing, we will call head chef Cheng the king of Sichuan cuisine in the whole country!” Zhou Shijie still spoke in measured tones. Actually, at this moment, he should say the person’s real name, which would be more rigorous. However, Zhou Shijie found that if he said master Cheng’s real name, it would not be rigorous.
Another round of applause was heard to welcome Cheng zhaomei.
The king of Sichuan cuisine was not a name inherited from Yuan Zhou. It was said that after master Cheng had thoroughly studied Yuan Zhou ‘s’ notes of Sichuan cuisine ‘, he went to various provinces for an exchange and used Sichuan cuisine to conquer the famous chefs of various provinces and cities, earning himself the title of’ King of Sichuan cuisine ‘!
Master Cheng had been hesitating for a long time about this title. He thought that with his master around, he would at most be called the second king of Sichuan cuisine. However, Yuan Zhou himself didn’t care about that at all. After all, he was going to become the master chef. Moreover, the king of Sichuan cuisine was his disciple, which was quite exciting to hear.
“Chairman Zhou said that he’s the king of Sichuan cuisine. That’s too much.” “I’m very grateful to all my fellow Sichuan cuisine colleagues for supporting me in becoming the chairman of Sichuan cuisine,” master Cheng said.”I also know that your support is not because of my face, but because of my culinary skills.”
“Here, I would like to thank my master, head chef Yuan, very much. Without my master, my cooking skills might still be second-rate, and without my master, I wouldn’t have been able to learn the most important quality of a chef.” While saying that, master Cheng faced the direction where Yuan Zhou was sitting and bowed to thank him.
Eh, why did the recruitment of girls suddenly become so emotional? then next time, the homework should be a little easier. Yuan Zhou thought so in his heart and answered,””To be able to reach this stage, it’s mostly due to your own efforts.”
The master led the way and the cultivation depended on the individual. Master Cheng had indeed remembered everything that Yuan Zhou taught him, no matter big or small.
Even though Yuan Zhou said so, master Cheng still expressed his gratitude to Yuan Zhou.
He said,”yesterday, I watched a video of my previous cooking competitions. Compared to now, I’m really young and tender. Whether it’s my cutting skills, my control of the fire, or my understanding of the ingredients, they’re all barely satisfactory.”
In fact, ever since Yuan Zhou became famous, master Cheng and master Yuan Zhou had become a legend in the cooking world. Therefore, it was expected that master Cheng would thank Yuan Zhou so much at the inauguration ceremony. However, could the two of them speak in human language?
They all knew that Cheng zhaomei was already a senior technician before she became Yuan Zhou’s disciple. According to the popular science, the National chef examination was divided into three levels: beginner, intermediate, advanced, master, and advanced Master. To put it bluntly, master Cheng was already very famous in Sichuan Province before he became his apprentice.
Among the directors of Sichuan cuisine present, many of them were head chefs at almost the same time as master Cheng. Many chefs had also lost to master Cheng in some competitions, such as head chef Feng and head chef li, who were sitting below. They felt uncomfortable when they heard master Cheng’s words.
So, according to master Cheng, before he acknowledged Yuan Zhou as his master, his culinary skills were just a small fry. Then, there was a big problem now. What was it to lose to master Cheng before that?
The most infuriating thing was that Yuan Zhou didn’t object to master Cheng’s statement. If you said,”no, before I acknowledged you as my master, your cooking skills were also very good”, head chef Feng and head chef li would feel better. Unlike now, they were moving around as if they had roe deers.
Fortunately, master Cheng’s gratitude to Yuan Zhou ended there. After all, it was an inauguration ceremony. Even Zhou Shijie heaved a sigh of relief. He was afraid that if master Cheng continued talking, he might even beat him up.
The other procedures were carried out as usual. As the newly-appointed Chairman, master Cheng read out the mission report of the Sichuan cuisine Association. About forty minutes later, the ceremony ended and the head chefs who were present also left one after another.
Of course, as the new chairman, zhaomei Cheng had to greet all the chefs present and get to know them better. Yuan Zhou, Zhou Shijie, and Zhang Yan were waiting at the side. After all, the gift he prepared had not been given to master Cheng.
“Little Yuan, you’ve really taught a good disciple,” Zhang Yan sighed.”Do you have any thoughts of taking in another disciple? I feel that if little Yuan takes in two more disciples, the prosperity of our Sichuan cuisine will be right in front of you.”
Although he had already stepped down, Zhang Yan still kept talking about developing Sichuan cuisine. It was not easy to put down responsibility.
“That’s enough. ” Zhou Shijie said,”with Chairman Cheng around, the development of Sichuan cuisines in the next 10 years will not be a problem. This will leave a way out for other cuisines. Moreover, I think little Yuan, you should go to Ludi some time. There are many talented young people there.”
Zhang Ye sneered. He had already seen through Zhou Shijie’s thoughts. Zhou Shijie had been the chairman for so many years and treated all the major cuisines equally. However, no matter what, he was still a native of Lu province. Therefore, it was understandable that he wanted to develop Lu cuisine.
“Master chef restaurant’s new dish should be our Lu cuisine. When will it be served?” Zhou Shijie asked with concern.
“Um …” Yuan Zhou thought of the mission of Qin cuisine and got flustered in his heart. However, he appeared calm on the surface and said,””I’m already thinking about it, but Lu cuisine isn’t that simple, so I still need time to get familiar with it. “
“Yes.” Zhou Shijie agreed with the comment that Lu cuisine was not that simple and said,””Little Yuan, I’m confident in your cooking skills.”
About half an hour later, master Cheng Ran over.
“I’ve made master, Chairman Zhou, and Zhang Hui wait for a long time. ” Master Cheng trotted over and was a little breathless.
“I’ve already retired, so you can’t call me President anymore. ” Zhang Ye said.
“It’s respect,”master Cheng replied,”it’s respect for Chairman Zhang.”
“He’s already the president’s man, so his words and actions should be more solemn. ” Yuan Zhou said.
“Understood, master.” Master Cheng said.
“President Cheng, if there’s anything in the Association in the future, you can communicate directly.” Zhou Shijie said.
“Alright, Chairman Zhou.” Master Cheng said.
“When I was acknowledging you as my master, I gave you an ice blade. This blade was used by me in the past. I’m giving it to you as a gift for becoming the president.” While saying that, Yuan Zhou placed the wooden box in master Cheng’s hand.
