Shokugeki no Imitation Chef

"The total score statistics of the individual competitions have been released. So far, our'team' has a total score of 54.73 points, ranking fourth... After adding the final team competition results, the top four teams can advance to the main event. The situation is not optimistic. .. For more latest chapters visit: ШЩЩ.⑦⑨XS.сОМ.” Said Kojiro Shinomiya, placing the newspaper with the list on the table in front of him.

It's already night, and the individual match was a few hours ago.

As soon as the game was over, Kojiro Shimiya wanted to find Pleiades Liu to count everyone’s scores to gauge how much the “burden” of the subsequent team matches was. At the same time, he also simply determined the team match strategy in advance...

However, Liu Subaru did not return to the "team" lounge because he was anxious to draw Rina. He was blocked until he returned to the hotel. At this time, some unofficial tabloids had already calculated the results, so Kojiro Sinomiya naturally used it directly. Up!

Now Kojiro Shimiya directly used their statistical data. From now on, the "team" looks like a good situation, and has already entered the top four. That is to say, if everyone's scores in team battles do not slow down. , The'door' ticket for this race has already been obtained!

However, what Kojiro Shimiya said was just the opposite, and several others, including Liu Subaru, did not refute it.

Liu Subaru picked up the tabloid again and looked at it on the provisional ranking...

Who made him the "leader" completely fail to fulfill his responsibilities?

I have been delayed in contacting the "seed team" before, and now I have time to notice this ranking. No wonder Kojiro Shinomiya keeps giving him his eyes.

Under the white eyes of the fourth house, Pleiades Liu even couldn't help but feel some guilt in his heart, but he immediately suppressed his "guilt" by Pleiades Liu, while silently thinking in his heart: I am fighting for the cause of saving the world...

Kojiro Shinomiya’s words were indeed not alarmist. Liu Subaru also noticed at this time that although they are now ranked fourth, but...

"54.73 points... It seems that there is not much advantage. The tenth place also has 54.25 points. The fourth place and the tenth place are less than 0.5 points!" Liu Subaru said with his forehead.

"Yes, that is to say, there are still seven or eight teams that can compete with us in the team competition without too much weakness." Suwon Dongmi analyzed expressionlessly.

Xi Jianjun, who hadn't realized what it was, suddenly exclaimed: "Ah! Isn't that bad? You said before that we were weak in team competitions, right?"

Xi Jianjun also had an afterthought, the reason why everyone got fourth in the individual competition, but still thought that the situation was not good, that's why!

However, Liu Subaru said at this moment: "But the situation is not that bad..."

Seeing everyone watching over, Liu Subaru put the tabloid on the table, and then spread his hands: "Although our previous plan was to get as high a score as possible in the individual competition, it would be nice to memorize some points for the team competition...but In fact, do you really think that we have the strength to get first and second? With the current results in the individual competitions, there is actually nothing to complain about. After that, we can strive for team competitions without backing up."

Although Liu Subaru's statement is "rogue", the fourth house and others cannot refute it!

Indeed, the previous plan was mostly inspiring. Didn’t they think that their opponents were too strong to achieve the planned goals?

Although Liu Subaru's words are unacceptable, there is no problem in principle...

That is, in the individual competitions, the three people have already played their due level, and it can even be said that they have played very well!

With a score of 54.73, it should be satisfied...

The chefs of more than 90 other teams are worse than them?

Obviously not. The current score is because they are better than other chefs in recipe creativity and on-the-spot performance as far-moon chefs. Otherwise, they will be out of the competition without limiting the topic. Up!

Why did you not reach a higher score?It is not a matter of plan, nor is there any mistake, but a simple "technical stop".

Therefore, in Liu Subaru's view, there is nothing to say. In the subsequent team competitions, everyone can play the strongest level. Whether it is successful or not, it is the reason of strength, there is nothing to say.

"Indeed, we miscalculated the strength of the old famous chefs and the appeal of'all blue'..." Si Gong nodded.

At the same time, I looked at the ranking on the tabloid...

Indeed, the quality of the players in this session caught Si Gong and others by surprise!

"It's not so much the attraction of'all·blue' as it is the attraction of the four teams in the race! Let alone the representative team of the American Development Council, the other three... those celebrity chefs want to have a better reputation , There is only one way to defeat the representative team of the three major cooking organizations!" Liu Subaru said.

That's right, it is precisely because the four teams that sent the race have made the atmosphere of this "all·blue" to the extreme. Those who are not unaffected by the "curse", do not even know the "Jade" Dragon Pot "What kind of celebrity chefs, the biggest reason for participating in "all·blue" is to defeat the bosses of the three major cooking organizations and win the first place in the world in one fell swoop...

"Wait, I think our current situation is not as bad as we thought before!" Liu Subaru groaned and picked up the tabloid again.

Si Gong thought about something at this time, and said with some disdain: "Yes, some are too anxious to be'famous'."

"Eh? Famous? What are you talking about?" Xi Jianrun said suspiciously.

Liu Subaru also found a previous tabloid, which was a brief introduction about the teams participating in the competition...

Since the readers are interested, naturally these tabloids have also compiled this information. Although they can't inquire about some too secret things, they still have the composition of the team and the main achievements of the chef.

"If you take a closer look, in fact, most of the teams that have similar results to ours now are not'original'. Almost all are the result of the combination of two or three old stores." Liu Subaru said.

This can indeed have a greater advantage in individual competitions, but the price is that the degree of cooperation in team competitions will suffer...

"But even so, they must be better than us? After all, they can be regarded as a combined team of two or three teams, and all of us are hard teams, and we don't usually have much cooperation..." Xi Jianrun is weak Said.

When Xi saw Run's pouring cold water, Liu Subaru's eyes lit up, "No, maybe... Yes! That's it!"

"What's your idea?" The Fourth House asked Liu Subaru again with a smile that made people want to punch him.

"What I mean is that they should also be in the team later, divided into two or three groups, unified planning, group cooking... We can actually do the same! Chuang Zhen and Da Suba first determine two auxiliary candidates, and then The key point is that when it comes to the team competition, we will cook in the form of 2+2+1!" Liu Subaru said.

"The problem is that even in groups, it is impossible to achieve within a short time... the assistants of other teams have worked with the chef for at least several years or even decades, and the degree of tacit understanding cannot be quickly achieved. If the degree of tacit understanding is not enough, ...It's better to have only four players on the court when the time comes, and then fight separately!" Said Kojiro Shinomiya.

Obviously the four refer to himself, as well as Liu Subaru, Suwon Dongmi, and Gan Hyugako.

Although the words of the fourth house made Chuangzhen and Mizuo Subaru a little depressed, they did have their truth!

The purpose of "cooperation" in the kitchen is to assign the relatively simple tasks of the chef to his assistant.

If a chef cooperates with one or two kitchen workers who have worked with him for decades and have a tacit understanding, he can even be two or three times as efficient as himself!

In other words, although the chef's cooking skills are far inferior to the chef who works with him, as long as two people are tacitly familiar, he can even play the role of another chef when working with the chef...

Of course, this kind of super chef not only has requirements for skills, but more importantly is the tacit understanding of cooperation!

The higher the chef's cooking skills, the higher the demand for tacit "sex".

Just as Sinomiya understood the "heart of cooking", and after the rapid advancement in cooking, he felt that his assistant chef was becoming more and more "in the way"...

If you change the temper of the former Si Gong, I am afraid that he has already got out!

Fortunately, in the past year, although the fourth house can't speak of self-cultivation and cultivating'sex', but the temper has also changed a lot. He also understands that this feeling of "obstructing one's hands" is a sudden improvement that makes the chef unable to adapt, so he is more patient. Teach each other...

The most obvious performance is in the "cooking mind".

The highest standard for judging whether one’s kitchen worker is in a tacit understanding with oneself is often the kitchen worker’s handling of the ingredients, which will not affect your own cooking heart!

The effect of cooking with the heart of the cooking is the process of filling the dish with the will of the cook...

Naturally, only in the "things on the plate" that you cook by yourself, you can infuse your cooking.

Otherwise, when the Atlantis civilization and Lemurian civilization were still there, wouldn't the two civilizations choose some people to join forces, which is equivalent to countless "dragon chefs"?

However, there is no absoluteness. It is obviously unrealistic to infuse one's will in the cooking of others.

Because the essence of infusion of will is to use one's own cooking heart to change the "source" of the ingredients to look forward to the situation...

Anyone can change the "source" of the ingredients. It's just that they don't want to do what they want, they just change it inadvertently.

One of the special effects of the kitchen utensils is to be able to identify whether they have experienced artificial cooking from the changes in the "source" of the ingredients...

Even a cook who doesn't know the heart of the kitchen at all, as long as the ingredients are processed, even if they are simply shredded, sliced, and diced, the source of the ingredients will change.

This kind of change is not as effective as directly using the heart of cooking to change the "source", but it is not shifted by personal will...

Once the "source" of the ingredients has been changed, the chef will naturally have more obstacles when he wants to use his "cooking mind" to show his will!

If there is no obstacle at all, it means that the changes in the "source" of the ingredients when the chefs processed the ingredients are exactly the same as the changes expected by the chef!

What this requires is not the skill of the chef, but the horrible tacit understanding...

Therefore, the more “cooking mind” and the more skilled a chef is, the higher the requirements for the tacit understanding between the chef and himself, otherwise it would be better to have no one to assist you.

However, there are too few such examples. Even chefs and chefs who have worked together for decades may not be able to do it. Usually, if the process of the chef and the chef is 50-50, it means that two people work together. At that time, when their respective workloads are about the same, the weakening of the chef's "cooking mind" is less than 30%, which is considered a very tacit understanding!

And this kind of tacit understanding cannot be achieved overnight...

That's why the Fourth House questioned Liu Subaru's "2+2+1" strategy.

"However, if the four people are fighting each other, the final result must be that the degree of matching of'one meal' is extremely low in terms of dishes! The current '2+2+1' is already considering that I can fully cooperate with the other two groups of dishes. It is equivalent to as long as the two parties coordinate with each other." Liu Subaru retorted.

Well, the time for the team competition is also two hours, but the title is "a meal", not "a meal", which means that the final presentation, whether it is Chinese or Western, must be a complete set of dishes. meal……

The overall consideration is the standard of team competition. Otherwise, what is the difference between individual competition?There are five people in each team, but four look out for the wind and one for cooking.

According to the rules of the team competition, the optimal ratio should be "four guarantees one", which means that four of the five people can be perfectly qualified for the other cook, making it 500% efficient...

In this way, all the dishes are made by one person, and the conditions are met in terms of time and coordination of sex.

However, there are only two such teams in the qualifiers!And they can't be threatened.

After all, kitchen workers have their limitations. When working with their old partners, they can play the role of a chef, but their cooking skills are definitely not as good as a true chef, because most of their time, It must be used for cooperation, and a chef who is willing to be a kitchen worker, surely talent is not the best...

In the "all·blue" competition, each team is selecting five people and two candidates. If four places are given to the chefs, it means that there are only three chefs who can truly be alone!

Even if you don’t consider the "star" issue when signing up, there are only three chefs, which means that the individual has no choice but to play with three of them, and later in team competitions, only the one who has four assistants The chef of the game does not have any room for choice. Once a very unfavorable problem arises, it is easy to lead to a loss.

Looking at the current score rankings of the individual matches, you know that as long as one person makes a major mistake, the entire team will not be promoted!

On the other hand, even if you have absolute self-confidence, it is very rare to have four chefs who are able to guide and cooperate fully with the chefs...

Because the more kitchen workers you cooperate with, the more processes you have to deal with for the kitchen workers!

In this way, most of the teams that set the target for the main match, most of them are a chef with one or two chefs, and then use the "2+3" tactic in the team competition, divided into two groups. Cooking...

If a chef takes the lead, there is no need to consider the coordination of "a meal". If you cook by yourself and the final dishes are not in harmony with each other, then he is not worthy of being a chef at all.

If you are divided into two teams, to a certain extent, you need to communicate and cooperate with each other. Although it is a "one-to-one" cooperation, it will be a lot of trouble.

And if it is divided into three teams...the degree of trouble of cooperation will increase exponentially!

Liu Subaru proposed "2+2+1" because he defaulted to being "1". Because his cooking skills are inclusive of all things, he is confident that he can let the other two groups not consider how to cooperate with him, and he can actively integrate into it. , Is still equivalent to "one-to-one" cooperation.

But the four are fighting each other...not to mention that the "wandering" takes one person's position, just the coordination of "sex" of the "meal", there is no need to count on it!

The criteria for "a meal" is definitely different from "a meal"...

Not only consider the independent deliciousness of a dish, but also consider the coordination between each dish.

The simplest, if the last meal that the judges tasted is composed of a "tomato-fried'chicken' egg", a "'chicken' egg-fried tomato", a "tomato boiled egg", and a "egg cooked tomato" , That mood will definitely not be so wonderful!

The thoughts of Si Gong and Liu Maoxing seemed to be neutralized in the end...

"Then the next nine days... No, during the seven days, let’s try the level of cooperation first. Finally, three days before the start of the game, determine the final strategy! If the level of cooperation is acceptable, you should try your best. Prepared according to '2+2+1'." Liu Subaru said.

Si Gong and others obviously had no opinion on Liu Subaru's decision at first.

However, the fourth house immediately reacted, looking at Liu Subaru staring suspiciously, "You can't remember anything wrong, right? Although the team competition lasts for ten days, the order of the match is to be drawn tomorrow morning! Why are we so sure that we will be on the last day?"

After that, the team competition will actually start tomorrow...

But unlike "individual competitions", team competitions are not crowded together.

Since the comparison is "one meal", the time for the judges to taste the dishes of each team will inevitably be very long!

Once there is a situation where the "one meal" is completed one after another, the team that completes one step later will be unlucky. It may take half an hour to complete the cooking before it is their turn to present...

As a result, in this half an hour, how to keep the dishes in the best taste period will be the biggest problem.

If it is a dish that is demanding on the best taste period, it will basically be half waste!

Therefore, decades ago, under the blood and tears of countless participants, the rules were finally changed to a more fair "wrong time" game.

That is to say, each group has its own admission time and presentation time, which cannot be early or late, and the time of each group is staggered by an hour!

Since the time has been stretched out, naturally I don’t care about it being longer, so there are only five judges in the team competition regardless of the venue. Starting from the first day, you will taste the dishes of the ten to eleven teams every day from 12 to 10 pm , Ten days later, all 102 teams were reviewed.

In the ten days from tomorrow, all teams that have not played will be prohibited from leaving the hotel. At the same time, the hotel will also block all external signals to ensure that there will be no "missing questions".

However, what ingredients are needed for practice can be sent in from outside after being checked by the competition.

Anyway, there are all kinds of entertainment facilities and places in the hotel, so don’t worry about being boring for ten days...

This is especially true for the "team"!

Ten days will be bored?joke!For them, ten days of practice time is still too little!

But expecting the best time for ten days does not mean that there are really ten days!

In case of bad luck, what about the first group who will enter the venue at 10 o'clock tomorrow morning?

"No, since the competition notified, the team leaders will go to'draw' tomorrow morning instead of the official'draw', then no matter what the'draw' method is, I will be able to'draw' to the last day!" Liu Subaru is confident Said.

"..."

Although Liu Subaru is very confident, it is obvious from the eyes of the Fourth House and others that this belongs to "the self-confidence of'mysterious'".

Liu Subaru opened his mouth to explain something, but he stopped in time...

Erina’s lessons learned before are still in sight!

Pleiades Liu feels that it is not wise to'expose' his special abilities of the "super five senses". For example, Pleiades Liu will tell them, can the combination of his super vision and brain supplements achieve the effect of perspective?

"If you don't believe it... Then that's it. If tomorrow's'draw' is not the last day's show, then use the fourth house method!" Liu Subaru said.

Although Si Gong and others don’t know where Liu Subaru is confident, but I believe it first, and only wait for the next morning...

At 8 o'clock the next day, Pleiades Liu and others arrived at the'drawing' scene on time. Obviously, the Fourth House still planned for the worst, that is, they entered the game on the same day.

"Congratulations, the total score of the individual competition is fourth... Ha ha, if the team competition does not delay the'legs', maybe you will be able to advance!" Nagaki thisi walked towards Liu Subaru.

Although he didn't hit the smiley person with his hand, Liu Subaru just saw the smirk of Nagakiji that was not pleasing to the eye.

He doesn't use a lottery, but as one of the important leaders of the "American Development Council", it is not difficult to come to the lottery site.

"Where is it, how can it be compared to the'door' after walking!" Liu Subaru responded with a smile also.

"Hehe, I wish you a smooth'draw' first..." Naginaki thistle looked completely silent.

Originally, the only thing Liu Subaru was worried about was that Naruchiji would make a mess, and put himself in the last few for the draw. By then, there might be no more late games.

But knowing that now he already knows that the order of'drawing' the lottery is scheduled according to the total points of each team in the individual competition. Liu Subaru is the fourth one to go up to the'draw', still worried that there will be no later games?

And the "drawing" in front of Liu Subaru was the Italian Royal Cuisine Team, the Baixing Sanying Team, and the...seed team!

That's right, the seed team ranked third in total points in the individual competition. After all, in the "seed team", Dojima Ginon's personal strength can also be ranked in the top three among all contestants, and won a high score of 19 or more!

"Italian Royal Restaurant, Baixing Sanying Team... It seems that they have already locked two entries for the main match ahead of time, and what is left is the eight teams from third to tenth, competing for the rest. Two." Liu Subaru said, looking at the two teams.

It's not that Liu Subaru is stunned, because these two teams are the only "four guarantees and one" lineup. There are only three chefs among the seven players, and the other four are chefs of one of them!

Originally, they were ahead of other groups in the individual competitions, and the team competitions were their advantage. The advantage has become so large that they "do not know how to lose"...
