At this moment, Li Jinze was very persistent.
He genuinely admired Lu Rong.
He was determined to become Lu Rong's disciple.
In fact, Li Jinze has been obsessed with cooking since he was a child.
His dedication to culinary skills surpasses that of 99% of chefs.
From a young age, he loved to linger in the kitchen, looking at various recipes and then making delicious meals according to the recipes.
They might even upgrade and improve some dishes to enhance their flavor.
He enjoys the feeling of transforming ordinary ingredients into something incredibly delicious with his own hands.
He enjoys seeing people praise his cooking after they've tasted it.
He felt a great sense of accomplishment from this.
For this reason, his grades plummeted, and his parents were at their wits' end.
Fortunately, he not only has a genuine love for cooking, but also possesses a remarkable talent for it.
At such a young age, she has already created countless dishes that have received high praise.
He is quite well-known locally.
After graduating from junior high school, he stopped studying and, with his family's support, opened a small restaurant.
The restaurant was incredibly popular every day, and he amassed a fortune of millions in just a few years.
A true winner in life.
However, this was not the end for him.
Because the store was so popular, his reputation gradually spread throughout the country and even abroad.
However.
One day, a foreign food critic came to his restaurant for a meal.
He originally thought that the food critic would be amazed by his cooking skills.
So he brought out his best dish.
To his surprise, the food critic said that although his food was delicious, it was still not as good as that of Michelin-starred chefs abroad, and that it was nothing special.
He was furious upon hearing this, but he also longed for the legendary Michelin-starred restaurant.
So he resolutely closed the shop and went abroad alone to challenge himself.
After a lot of hard work and struggle, he finally established himself in a famous Michelin-starred restaurant abroad and became the head chef, a position he still holds today.
But as he continued working there, he realized that the level of Michelin-starred restaurants abroad seemed to be just so-so.
There is no room for improvement.
So after careful consideration, he decided to quit his job abroad and resolutely return to his motherland.
Because he discovered that Western food was ultimately no good, and that Chinese food was the best in the world.
Only Chinese cooking techniques like frying, stir-frying, and deep-frying can bring out the best flavors of food.
After returning to China, he didn't know where to begin.
Now that he has tasted Lu Rong's fish head tofu soup, he realizes that there are always people more capable than him, and there is always something beyond his reach.
Lu Rong is that person outside the world, the one beyond the heavens.
An existence he admired.
He doesn't like making money; he only enjoys honing his culinary skills and hopes to learn more advanced techniques.
Although he had just thought that Lu Rong's fish head tofu soup could not possibly defeat him.
But at this moment, he deeply regretted his previous arrogance.
I was too short-sighted and blind.
Often, true deliciousness doesn't necessarily have to look fancy.
As long as the skill level exists, even ordinary home-cooked dishes can be made into delicacies that surpass the world's best.
It seems that my time abroad in recent years has had an impact on me.
He had actually developed this feeling, something he hadn't even realized he'd had before.
Returning to China was definitely the right decision.
Seeing Li Jinze kneeling before him, Lu Rong truly hadn't expected him to pull such a stunt.
He quickly pulled him up:
“I’m still a student, and I’m not suitable to be your mentor,” he explained.
Lu Rong is 22 years old this year, while Li Jinze is undoubtedly two or three years older than him.
In addition, due to the hard work in the restaurant every day over the years, he looks much older than his peers.
Comparing these two.
The contrast is particularly strong.
It seems rather strange that Li Jinze is now going to become Lu Rong's apprentice.
However, Li Jinze didn't seem to care about these things: "As long as I can stay by Master Lu Rong's side, I am willing to give everything, and I only hope to receive your guidance."
His goal was also very clear: he admired Lu Rong and thought that Lu Rong's cooking skills were superb, much better than his own, so he hoped to learn even better cooking skills from Lu Rong.
Of course, he didn't learn for nothing; he would also help Lu Rong with things within his ability.
Seeing Li Jinze's sincerity, Lu Rong didn't know what to say for a moment.
He thought about it and realized that his Chuxin Kitchen business had recently taken off again.
Despite the support and assistance from Su Tingyun and Xu Fei, the sheer volume of food each day was exhausting for them.
In addition, they sometimes have to attend classes to study.
But Li Jinze was different.
On the one hand, he clearly doesn't lack money, so when he said he was learning from me, he meant he was going to do his best to become my assistant and help me.
Secondly, if he were to follow him, Li Jinze's abilities would definitely be of great help.
My cooking skills were all taught by the system, and I have plenty of them, so passing on some to him wouldn't be a problem.
I won't lose anything.
If he can learn even 70-80% of it, he will be much better than he is now.
After today's interaction, he discovered that Li Jinze wasn't a bad person at heart.
