Today is the second episode of MasterChef.
MasterChef airs twice a week, one on Tuesday and one on Saturday.
After watching the preliminaries on Tuesday, Aqiao has been looking forward to Saturday. In order to watch the show well, she has finished her homework in advance. Now she can't wait to sit in front of the TV with a pile of food in front of her.
Mom and Dad went out for something today, so they asked Aqiao to order takeout.
Aqiao hummed a tune and felt that today was a super happy day.
Homework completed!
Then you can eat your favorite takeout and watch your favorite shows!
So happy!
Aqiao put out the spicy hot pot and fried skewers she ordered, and just at that moment the opening credits of the Chef Master began.
"Oh oh oh! It's started, it's started, is everyone watching?"
Aqiao picked up her phone, sent a voice message to her small group of friends, and took photos of the food in front of her.
：【Watching +1】
: [Wow, Qiaoqiao, did you order that popular spicy hot pot? I want to try it too.]
: [You told me your uncle and aunt were out, so I asked you to come to my house for dinner. My mom made mixed noodles and fried pork today.]
: [No more talking, my family is about to have dinner, we’ll talk later.]
: [Yeah, let’s all watch the show first.]
——
On the screen, one hundred contestants leaped into the competition venue.
The contestants stood at the cooking table, looking at the neat and tidy cooking table, feeling very excited, because this is where they will cook next.
The three judges stood on the front stage and took turns saying:
"Welcome everyone. The fact that you've made it this far proves that you're very capable and have stood out from so many other contestants to get here."
"But the competition is cruel after all. Coming here does not mean you are safe. You need to play to your ability and try your best to stay."
"Today, you will face a very basic test."
"Do you see the ingredients in front of you?"
"Potatoes and snakehead fish."
"Next, you need to cut a pot of shredded potatoes and cut the snakehead fish into fillets within 10 minutes."
"Are you ready?"
The contestants at the cooking table: "We're ready."
"The sound isn't loud enough. I'll ask again, are you ready?"
“Ready!!!”
"So, 3, 2, 1, start! Ten minutes countdown!"
The timer lights up bright red [10:00].
One hundred contestants moved at the same time, their kitchen knives unsheathed.
Mingyue was about to peel potatoes when she suddenly heard a bang next to her, followed by a scream.
It turned out that the peeler in one of the contestants' hands flew out and hit the contestant in front of him.
"Are you trying to murder me?!"
The player who was hit asked angrily.
"I'm sorry, I, I..." The contestant who slipped his hand was very flustered.
"We'll handle it. If you're not injured, just focus on the competition." The judges quickly walked over to intervene.
The peeler did not cause any harm to the player who was hit, but in the tense game, even a small spark can ignite emotions.
Fu Shilang picked up the peeler on the ground and looked seriously at the player who made the mistake.
"This is a competition, take it seriously. If you can't even hold a knife steady, you should just go home."
"Sorry, Chef." The contestant looked pale, worried that Fu Shilang would announce that he was eliminated in the next second.
"Now, take a deep breath and tell me can you do this?"
"Sure, Chef!"
"Well, I'll return the peeler to you. Don't let this happen again, or you'll be the first to be eliminated."
Fu Shilang handed over the peeler.
The contestant felt relieved and quickly reached out to take the peeler.
He immediately became extremely alert and began to peel the potatoes quickly with a peeler.
You know, time is running out at this moment, and due to his previous mistakes, he has fallen far behind other players.
So right now, every minute and every second is crucial to him and cannot be wasted.
He had to speed up every second to catch up with others and avoid being eliminated.
Each contestant reacts differently to shredding potatoes or filleting fish.
Some people are at ease.
“I’ve been fishing with my father since I was a kid, so I’m pretty good at handling fish.”
"These are basic kitchen skills. If you don't know how to do this, you should consider going home."
Someone has encountered a problem.
"My family doesn't eat fish and we rarely cook fish, but since I'm here, I have to challenge myself."
"My knife skills aren't very good, so I'm more worried about shredding the potatoes."
Aqiao looked at the screen worriedly. Among all the contestants, she was most worried about Mengya. She didn't know if Mengya could complete the shredding and slicing tasks within that time.
She wanted to say that the program team's design was a bit harsh, but reason told her that these were just the basic skills of a chef. If Mengya wanted to continue in the competition, she had to overcome this.
But I don’t know if the program crew did it on purpose, but they haven’t released any footage of Mengya, as if they were deliberately whetting people’s appetite.
The judges came off stage and began walking around the contestants checking their progress.
Qi Fei is fighting with a fish.
Yu Wenyi reminded him, "You're taking too long. You might not have time to cut potatoes next. Pay attention to your time management."
Lan Qingying was also deboning the fish with gritted teeth, and Wen Qi walked over to her.
