Chapter 185 I Don't Want to Donate a Kidney 11
Jiang Yuerong's eyes lit up; this was a good idea.
The image of taking her daughter on a TV show immediately flashed into her mind.
She was dressed as a chef, while her daughter wore a mini version of a chef's outfit.
The two, one big and one small, walked onto the stage hand in hand.
We've already come up with a name.
Chinese Little Chef, or Chinese Little Master Chef?
The more she thought about it, the more interesting it seemed.
Looking down at his daughter, he smiled and said, "Okay!"
While she was busy customizing miniature chef outfits for her daughter, a new episode of a food program on Beijing TV premiered.
The host, A Yuan, introduced the situation with a smile:
"Today, I'd like to introduce you to a new and beautiful chef, Lin Wan, who is an apprentice of the famous chef, Mr. Qi Yuanlin."
Despite her young age, she is now Mr. Qi's last disciple.
Her culinary skills are exceptional, and she excels at creating innovative flavors from traditional dishes.
Later in the program, Lin Wan demonstrated her skillful knife work, winning applause from the guests.
That's not all; in order to further prove his prowess...
Lin Wan directly carved a phoenix into a design using a pumpkin.
When the lifelike golden phoenix was displayed in front of the camera, not only the guests but also Jiang Yuerong were surprised, marveling at the incredible knife skills.
This is no longer just a simple carving technique; it has risen to the level of art.
She definitely couldn't do it.
However, although she was convinced, she also vaguely felt that something was not right.
After the program aired, the TV station received a lot of positive feedback from viewers.
Everyone was very curious as they were seeing such high-level culinary skills for the first time.
However, as the second episode aired, some citizens started calling to ask where the original beautiful Chef Jiang had gone.
Why aren't you on TV anymore?
Some citizens also raised concerns, saying that while your current programs are entertaining, they are too highbrow, reaching for the heavens.
They keep showing off things like phoenixes, cranes and palace lanterns, and lions playing with balls. Is this something ordinary people should eat?
Who exactly is this show for?
Chef Jiang, who used to cook home-style dishes, was just fine! Why were they replaced?
After receiving the feedback, the production team immediately relayed it to Lin Wan.
So in the third episode, Lin Wan decisively changed her strategy and started teaching everyone how to cook home-style dishes.
However, after the program aired, it received some positive reviews, but not many.
Instead, there has been a lot of criticism.
The steps are too complicated and the ingredients are too many; it's not a home-style dish at all.
She also frequently mentioned the original Chef Jiang, comparing him to Lin Wan.
The message infuriated Lin Wan.
What nonsense! Jiang Yuerong, with her mediocre skills, is she even worthy of being compared to her?
She watched two episodes of Jiang Yuerong's show, criticizing her from beginning to end.
She found mistakes everywhere and didn't believe that food made this way could taste good.
Sure enough, upon inquiry, it was discovered that both TV station staff and guests privately complained that this beautiful Chef Jiang was a kitchen killer.
They even said they would be poisoned by Chef Jiang's cooking sooner or later.
She also found out Jiang Yuerong's background and enrolled in a class for a few months to get a senior chef's certificate.
How they obtained this certificate is obvious without even asking.
That's shameless. She hates people who cheat and lie the most.
This was also her original intention for appearing on the show: she absolutely could not let the fine Chinese cuisine be ruined by a monk who had only recently become a monk.
She had to step forward and let the people see what real Chinese cuisine is like.
But the current feedback from the program is that there are few praises and many criticisms, which is making Lin Wan furious.
What kind of looks are those?
I am a renowned teacher and a highly accomplished student, yet in the eyes of ordinary people, I am not even as good as Jiang Yuerong, who only started learning the profession halfway through her career.
I'm so angry! I'm so angry!
Since the blind common people want to see Jiang Yuerong, then let her come.
Let's have a competition on the same stage.
We invite the audience and members of the public to be our guests and sample the food on site.
To eliminate any possibility of deception, she wanted to expose the truth about this beautiful chef Jiang's incompetence in front of everyone.
Hum hum!
I refuse to believe that I, born into a prestigious family, cannot defeat you, a charlatan and a fraud.
Then, Jiang Yuerong received a call from the production team.
She hesitated after hearing the program's requirements.
Little Xiao hugged her leg, stood on tiptoe, and strained her ears to hear, then kept urging her on:
"Mom, go—go!"
Jiang Yuerong agreed on a whim.
However, he also stated his condition: he wanted to bring his four-year-old daughter on stage with him.
She promised her daughter would be very well-behaved and wouldn't cry or make a fuss, otherwise she wouldn't go.
After thinking about it for a while, the production team agreed.
The other party agreed, but Jiang Yuerong regretted it as soon as she hung up the phone. That was Lin Wan!
How dare a fake chef like her, a disciple of Qi Yuanlin, compete on the same stage?
"Ah—! You're going to kill Mom..."
Jiang Yuerong, feeling a little numb, hugged the little head and rubbed it for a while.
They messed up the two little tufts of hair on Xiaoxiao's head.
"Mom, no, I'm here. My nose is very sensitive."
With a slight pout and her hands covering her head, she spoke confidently.
Alright, alright, we're in a bind now, so we have no choice but to bite the bullet and go for it.
I just hope she doesn't lose too badly, otherwise the businesses she endorses will definitely demand huge compensation from her.
Manufacturers are now urging her to appear on TV shows to increase her exposure.
As Jiang Yuerong sighed, her old classmate A Yuan called to advise her not to participate in the program, saying it was clearly a trap.
After hearing that she had agreed, he remained silent for a moment, then sighed and said:
"Let me think of a way to see if we can cancel it."
"No need, old classmate. What's meant to happen will happen, I can't avoid it."
Jiang Yuerong shook her head and refused.
Who told her to be the first person to reap the benefits of a food show? She's famous, but her cooking skills are still rough.
In the eyes of his peers, this was just a blatant charlatan swindling people on stage.
Too many people are envious of her; everyone wants to bring her down so they can become famous overnight.
Jiang Yuerong was very nervous and kept encouraging herself.
"Honey! Can you tell the difference in other dishes too?"
"Yes!"
Although Xiao Xiao answered confidently, Jiang Yuerong didn't dare to take it too seriously.
I immediately bought the ingredients and started cooking.
With Xiaoxiao's guidance, the finished product tasted absolutely amazing!
Jiang Yuerong was overjoyed and happily spun around with her daughter in her arms.
She is now confident and full of faith in her and her daughter's partnership.
A few days later, Jiang Yuerong brought her adorable miniature chef daughter to the program's rehearsal.
The staff were immediately struck by the mother and daughter's outfits.
At that moment, Lin Wan happened to be present.
A hint of surprise flashed in her eyes when she saw Jiang Yuerong and her daughter.
Jiang Yuerong walked up to greet her generously and expressed her anticipation of competing against her.
Lin Wan pursed her lips, smiled, and said nothing.
They're putting on airs.
Jiang Yuerong forced a smile and led her daughter backstage to prepare.
Xiao Xiao, wearing a tall chef's hat, turned her head and snorted.
Lin Wan shook her head and began to go backstage to prepare.
The staff members saw this and whispered among themselves.
Everyone agrees that our beautiful chef Jiang Yuerong is probably in trouble today.
Sigh! People really shouldn't lie, or they'll inevitably crash and burn sooner or later.
Do they feel sympathy?
No, I have no sympathy.
The strong trample on the weak, and the weak are dominated by the strong; this is the law of nature, and it has always been so.
The program started soon, and many of the guests were citizens who had been invited by phone at random.
Among them was an old customer of Qi Laishun, Mr. Diao, and another person with an even more unusual identity was none other than Mr. Qi Yuanlin, Lin Wan's master.
This is not only about having his young apprentice oversee things, but also an endorsement of television food programs as a novel way to spread food culture.
The show officially began with Lin Wan taking the stage first. After the applause subsided...
Jiang Yuerong and her mother came on stage. The little girl took short steps and followed her mother, shaking her head.
Everyone smiled with maternal affection as they looked at the mother and daughter in their matching chef's uniforms and at the little girl shaking her head.
