Chapter 146: Fish is not a fish, Mo Qingyan...
Mo Qingyan wanted to report the barbecue party, so of course she couldn't just invite fans. Gao Moqi and Xu Yi were indispensable.
The Mo family must also be present.
As early as when Mo Qingyan arrived in Shangjing, Mr. Mo came out directly from the hospital.
Ever since he learned that Mo Qingyan was going to the Mo family, Mr. Mo seemed to have regained his appetite.
From previously being able to rely on nutrient solution to sustain life, now he can drink some light porridge.
When Mr. Mo heard that Mo Qingyan invited them to attend a barbecue party at the General's Mansion, he summoned his son and daughter-in-law who were on a business trip back overnight.
Let them prepare to go to the General's Mansion tomorrow night to attend Mo Qingyan's barbecue party.
Ever since Mo Qingyan moved into the General's Mansion in a high-profile manner, the big families in the capital have been paying close attention to his movements.
The fact that Mo Qingyan spent more than 500 million worth of bracelets and necklaces in Jingu City today left the people from the big families puzzled.
They didn't understand why Mo Qingyan spent so much money to buy so many bracelets and necklaces.
In particular, not only did they spend more than 500 million yuan, they also spent more than 10 million yuan in the evening to buy a lot of expensive ingredients and invited fans to a barbecue party.
The speed at which the family is squandering money is really hard to adapt to.
Isn't this a typical prodigal son?
Moreover, he is the type who only knows how to squander money but not make money.
Originally, all the big families in Beijing believed that Mo Qingyan was Mr. Mo’s illegitimate child.
The reason why the Mo family was so high-profile was that they even fabricated an identity for this illegitimate child as a little ancestor. He just wanted Mo Qingyan to be able to inherit everything from the Mo family legitimately.
Therefore, the big families in Beijing were all afraid of Mo Qingyan.
Didn’t you see that Mo Qingyan moved into the general’s mansion that everyone coveted as soon as she came back?
People from the big families in Beijing all believed that the General's Mansion was secretly bought by the Mo family.
Now that Mo Qingyan has been brought back, the general's mansion will be handed over to him.
This is enough to show how much the Mo family values Mo Qingyan.
They never thought that the general's mansion originally belonged to Mo Qingyan.
After all, from the information they found, Mo Qingyan was just an ordinary rural child whose parents had both passed away.
The reason why Mo Qingyan suddenly became so rich seemed to be from participating in the variety show "Another Life".
Perhaps, from the moment he joined the show, he was just claimed by the Mo family.
Therefore, he, who had been living a hard life before, suddenly squandered his money in revenge.
If someone cannot control this simple desire to get rich quickly, even if he takes charge of the Mo family in the future, the Mo family will be doomed.
In fact, judging from the current situation, this Mo Qingyan is not as good as Mo Wen'en.
Therefore, when the people from the big families in Beijing saw Mo Qingyan's behavior, they suddenly felt that Mo Qingyan was no longer a threat.
In fact, they were all just watching a show, watching Mo Qingyan squandering money.
At the rate at which Mo Qingyan was squandering money, the entire Mo family would surely be squandered by him in no time.
Mo Qingyan didn't know that there were so many people behind him waiting to laugh at him when he went to Beijing.
After he finished the live broadcast, he took a shower and went to bed early.
The next morning, he got up early and went running.
None of Song Beichen and his friends have the habit of jogging in the morning.
Mo Wen'en was quite filial. After knowing that Mo Qingyan got up for a morning run this morning, he also got up early and accompanied Mo Qingyan for a run.
After running and eating breakfast, Song Beichen and others continued to send Mo Qingyan to the Food Club building to participate in the competition.
There were 100 contestants yesterday, but only 50 contestants are left today.
Among them, 30 were level 3 state banquet chefs from the previous year.
Among the remaining 20, some are former state banquet-level chefs whose nameplates have been removed, like Zhou Ningren.
Some are chefs like Li Zhenmin, who are excellent chefs in restaurants or private restaurants.
Mo Qingyan is the only amateur.
Now, Mo Qingyan is only two steps away from becoming a level three state banquet chef.
Today's game is very different from yesterday's.
Although the scoring and ranking system is still adopted.
However, the theme of the competition is no longer selected by the five gourmet judges.
Instead, the prizes will be drawn by the 50 participating chefs themselves.
"The theme of this competition was provided by 50 gourmet judges. Please look at the big screen."
On the big screen, 50 competition themes appeared.
Behind those topics are the names of the judges who set the questions.
Among them, there are themes proposed not only by third-level gourmet judges, but also by second-level and even first-level gourmet judges.
Mo Qingyan also saw the theme proposed by Gao Moqi on the big screen.
My goodness, the topic Gao Moqi came up with seems like it’s meant to embarrass people.
The name is "Fish Not Fish".
This topic gives me a headache just looking at it.
What this means is that you need to make a dish that doesn’t use fish but still tastes like fish.
This topic is indeed tricky enough.
Among a bunch of topics, Gao Moqi's topic can be said to be very conspicuous.
The participating chefs around were also very troubled when they saw the competition theme proposed by Gao Moqi.
"This senior judge actually gave me a question. I knew it wouldn't be that easy. I have to make a dish that doesn't use fish but tastes like fish. How do I do that?"
"Yeah, isn't this deliberately making things difficult for me? How could this be done?"
"Oh my God, I only like the theme that I don't want to draw the high judges, otherwise, my nameplate of the third-level state banquet chef will be taken off."
"I also hope that I won't be so unlucky this time and draw a theme proposed by a senior judge. Otherwise, I will have to stop here."
…
It seems that all the participating chefs do not want to draw the competition theme proposed by Gao Moqi.
However, with 50 people and 50 topics, there will always be one unlucky person who gets picked.
Xu Yi couldn't help laughing when he saw the chefs in the live broadcast room praying with worried faces that they would not draw the theme proposed by Gao Moqi.
"Haha, Mo Qi, I was saying that your theme would definitely be criticized, right? Look at them, everyone's impression of you has probably hit rock bottom. Aren't you deliberately making things difficult for people by coming up with a theme? You can't use fish, but you ask the contestants to make it taste like fish. This is simply impossible."
Xu Yi felt that Gao Moqi's theme was to deliberately make things difficult for the participating chefs.
"If you haven't tried, how do you know that no one can do it?"
The reason why Gao Moqi came up with this theme was that he read in an ancient book that in ancient times, there were royal chefs who made dishes that did not use fish but had a fishy flavor.
Because one of the emperor's favorite concubines couldn't eat fish, but wanted to try what fish tasted like.
So, let the imperial chef find a way to make a dish that has no fish but tastes like fish.
Finally, the royal chef successfully made that incredible dish.
Therefore, Gao Moqi wanted to see if there was any chef participating in this year's competition who could make such a dish.
As for how difficult this theme is for the participating chefs, it all depends on the chefs themselves.
People who are truly good at cooking are not afraid of any difficulties or threats.
"I don't know which unlucky guy will draw your theme." Xu Yi couldn't help but put his hands together and prayed, "I don't care, as long as it's not Brother Mo."
However, usually what you don't want will happen.
What's more, the power of Mo Qingyan's Death Number 444 is not a rumor.
In order to ensure fairness and impartiality, all competition themes are drawn by the participating chefs themselves on stage.
And the speed of coming to the stage is the speed of yesterday's ranking.
Mo Qingyan was the first one to draw the theme.
50 sheets of white paper with themes written on them were folded and placed in a black box.
You can't see clearly inside the box from the outside. So Mo Qingyan just reached in, grabbed a piece of paper and took it out.
After taking it out, Mo Qingyan handed the note to the host.
The host opened the note in front of everyone.
All I saw were the three words "fish is not fish" written on it.
Suddenly, the scene fell into silence.
The fans and viewers in Mo Qingyan’s live broadcast room were also shocked.
No one expected that Gao Moqi's outrageous theme would be chosen by Mo Qingyan.
Moreover, he was the first one to go up and draw.
To be able to win such a grand prize, this is really unique luck.
The participating chefs in the audience came to their senses and immediately started smiling.
Very good. Mo Qingyan picked the outrageous topic, and they were all safe.
Suddenly, they felt that Mo Qingyan was a great kind person at this moment.
The power of Death No. 444 is really not to be underestimated.
Look, the first one drawn happened to be the most difficult and outrageous topic.
Coupled with the fact that Mo Qingyan was almost hit by a small fan yesterday, no one believed that No. 444 was not evil.
Originally, all the participating chefs had already recognized Mo Qingyan's* cooking skills.
But no matter how good your cooking skills are, it’s all in vain if you draw death number 444.
Look, this bad luck has happened again.
Mo Qingyan should be eliminated from the competition this time!
"Oh my god, how come your theme was picked by Brother Mo?" Xu Yi was in disbelief when he saw that it was Mo Qingyan who picked Gao Moqi's outrageous competition theme.
Gao Moqi didn't seem to expect that Mo Qingyan would draw the theme he proposed.
"What should we do? What if Brother Mo fails to make dishes according to your theme? Then we'll lose the competition. It's all your fault. What a rubbish theme you came up with!" Xu Yi began to blame Gao Moqi.
If he had known that Mo Qingyan would draw this outrageous topic, he would have pressed the button to prevent Gao Moqi from picking this topic.
"The competition hasn't even started yet, how do you know that Qingyan can't do it?" Although Gao Moqi was a little surprised that Mo Qingyan would draw the theme he proposed, he was very confident in Mo Qingyan.
"I believe he can."
