Chapter 549 I Don’t Understand
Some authoritative figures in the education field even commented that the program "Fake Dad and Fake Mom" directly promoted the development of Xia Huaguo's education for at least 20 years!
Moreover, this development will spread to all walks of life in an even more terrifying way in the future, promoting the entire Xiahua economy, science and technology and other fields, and narrowing the gap with other developed countries.
Therefore, when selecting influential figures across the country in the first quarter of 1981, An Zhixia was nominated by millions of people and was selected as one of the top ten advanced individuals.
This was something she had never expected, but the people expressed their gratitude and recognition in this way. An Zhixia seemed to have returned to the highlight of her previous life, the kind of satisfaction that came from both her body and mind.
After Tomorrow Culture Company held several meaningful programs, it began to co-organize an international chef competition with Jenkin Entertainment Company in May when the temperature was neither too hot nor too cold!
This is the first international chef competition, open to skilled chefs from all countries, with Jenkins, An Zhixia, several business tycoons and the famous Taogui serving as judges.
The content and rules of the competition are also entrusted to a special organization to set up, and we strive to make the competition open, fair, objective and highly representative.
The International Chef Competition has been registered with the Lianzhong International Department. An invitation letter has been sent to all countries through major newspapers, radio, television and other channels. It is like a sports, science and technology, or literary event, formal, authoritative, grand, and more importantly, lucrative!
In addition to the prize money ranging from 5,000M yuan to 50,000M yuan for each award, there is also a steady stream of investment from sponsors and various advertising products in the later stages.
Almost every country participating in the sporting event has registered for the International Chef Competition in the name of its country, and many marginal countries have also joined in driven by huge profits. It can be said that this is the first time in human history that a competition of such a large scale has been held.
All the details of the competition were gradually finalized. An Zhixia only had time to look through all the books on the subject in the supermarket, scan the important content into the computer, extract the text, re-typeset and print it, and then give it to her brother, then she flew to Country M with Fang Yuan.
Supported by a gold mine in Country E, Fang Yuan has sufficient initial capital accumulation, and its transportation routes have covered all major first- and second-tier cities and are now spreading to third-tier cities.
Due to the improvement in efficiency of the transportation industry, Xiahua's development in all aspects has also been greatly affected, stimulating people's consumption, accelerating the exchange of information and materials, etc., making the entire Xiahua industrial chain full of power, waiting for a qualitative leap in the accumulation of quantity!
Fang Yuan, who was also one of Xia Huaxin's top ten influential figures, supported his daughter-in-law's career financially and provided the competition venue: the United Hotel, as well as complete human resources and convenient transportation services, so it was easy for him to become one of the judges.
Qi Feipeng, who is known as Xia Hua's "Golden Tongue" and whose grandfather used to be the head chef in the imperial kitchen, was also invited to be a judge.
Xia Huaguo took up three seats on the jury. M country also got three, and the remaining four seats came from E country, Y country, D country and F country.
Taking into account the differences in customs and cultures of each country, in addition to the ten judges, there are also one thousand international diners serving as public judges, accounting for half of the judging power!
As soon as An Zhixia and the other two arrived at the hotel and adjusted to the jet lag, they attended a large emergency meeting.
The United Hotel has 56 floors. After Fang Yuan took over, he handed it over to the staff of Jinxiu Real Estate for fine decoration. Because the United Hotel is located in Country M and is next to the United Organization, its decoration style should be restrained and not too ostentatious.
An Zhixia has never forgotten that she wants to improve Xiahua's international status, so she personally participated in the decoration design, guiding the designers who returned from studying abroad to add some classic elements of Xiahua.
For example, classic patterns such as Xiahua knot, auspicious cloud pattern, wealthy peony, panda, a national treasure unique to Xiahua, and some of Xiahua’s long history.
Therefore, the United Hotel skillfully blended various distinctive elements together, and paid attention to combining the aesthetics acceptable to international friends, and was made into a Xiahua-style theme hotel!
In the fountain square in front of the United Hotel, Xiahua's bright red flag was raised high. All Xiahua people who passed by could not help but raise their heads and chests, with great excitement and deep patriotic feelings in their hearts.
Even the conference hall has been carefully designed.
After having breakfast, An Zhixia, Fang Yuan and Qi Feipeng took their bags and water cups and followed the crowd to the meeting room.
Most of the people around were foreigners with blond hair and blue eyes. There were not many public judges with yellow skin like them. And looking at their heads and looks, An Zhixia knew that there were only more than 30 Chinese people in Xia.
She frowned slightly. The public judges were selected through layers of selection. Even though they strived to be fair and just, the image of the Xia people had long been deeply rooted in the minds of the international public. Even though various programs had corrected this image a bit recently, this place was still a small epitome that demonstrated the proportion of international strength.
It seems that she still has a long way to go!
An Zhixia occasionally appeared on the screen, and many people had seen her. However, white-skinned people had a hard time recognizing Oriental people, and many people looked at her beautiful and delicate appearance, ignored Fang Yuan's dark face, smiled and enthusiastically greeted her in poor R language.
An Zhixia didn't show any surprise on her face. She just smiled politely and said in Xiahua: "Hello, I'm sorry, I don't understand what you are saying."
Several people were stunned for a moment. They could not understand Xia Huayu, but they could still distinguish the three words "hello". They were anxious and exclaimed in their native language: "This beautiful and sunny girl, isn't she from R country?"
"Is there such an elegant and intellectual woman in Xiahua Country? And she appeared in such an important event of ours. It's incredible!"
"Girl, are you kidding us? Your country R is famous for its sushi and noodles. There is one on every street in our country. But Xiahua restaurants are all on Xiahua Street, and the taste is just average."
An Zhixia chuckled and spoke clearly, "We have a saying in our country Xia Hua that goes 'When a man has been away for three days, he should be treated with new eyes.' I think your thinking is like the water in a dead pond, you have no idea of the changes of the four seasons, and you always stay in yesterday.
We, the Xia Chinese, are very smart. It's just that we closed our doors temporarily and had less communication with everyone, which led to our misunderstanding of each other.
I think you will understand more and more deeply in the future that we Xiahua people are like this," she gave a thumbs up and said proudly, "A country with 5,000 years of history and culture, even if it lags behind for a while, is still waiting for its strong accumulation and sudden development.
Your current attitude is unacceptable. The most taboo thing on the battlefield is to underestimate the enemy."
