Chapter 2289: As beautiful as history

As a chef of Singapore’s national treasure, the Royal chefs of Singapore’s national banquet were all his apprentices. It was easy to imagine opello’s status.
It was precisely because of this that opello, like Yuan Zhou, would pay special attention to the development of the chef industry in his own country.
At present, the only cultural exchange that involved China was the Asian cultural exchange that happened once every few years, which included food culture.
Now, France, far away in Europe, had reached a cooperation with China first, but Singapore, which was also in Asia, fell behind.
“I remember that Chairman Zhou also wanted to reach a national food Exchange with Italy, France, and other countries, but it didn’t go smoothly. Why did the first exchange end in just half a year?”
Opello had been sitting in his chair leisurely, listening to his eldest disciple share the news, but now he could not sit still.
“And ju man Li, who only believes in French cuisine, will come to China?” Opello didn’t like Juman li very much. If he didn’t know that he couldn’t win, he would’ve wanted to duel with Juman li.
For example, ju man Li’s evaluation of Singapore Food: It was an abnormal product of Malaysia, China, and Thailand, and it had nothing of its own.
By the way, ju man Li’s previous comment on Chinese food was: Fame was more practical than reality, and it was overpraised by the country’s history.
[Now, food is as beautiful as history.]
Ever since he started the exchange with Yuan Zhou, opello had foresaw that Chinese food culture might become the International mainstream. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have specially informed his several disciples when he came back. As for Tang le, he wouldn’t have specially gone to China’s Chengdu City to have a look when he followed them for the visit.
Opello’s original plan was to personally lead a team to Chengdu, China, after the closed-door cultivation to have an exchange with Yuan Zhou and the other top Chinese chefs and to have a closer exchange of delicacies between China and Singapore. By the way, the exchange between China, France, and Japan was not only a collision between chefs but also had a certain impact on the food trade of the entire country.
Now, before he had time to carry out the next step of the plan, he suddenly found out that someone was going to take the pot away. How could he tolerate this?
......
“Master, as far as I know, head chef ju man Li admires head chef Yuan very much and praises Chinese cuisine very much.” Tang Lei said.
“No...” Opello suddenly recalled Yuan Zhou’s strength and swallowed the rest of his words.
Since Yuan Zhou could conquer him directly, of course, he could also conquer the stubborn ju man Li, which was nothing strange.
“it seems like head chef yuan’s cooking skills can really change people.” opello muttered.
opello suddenly stood up and said,””tang le, contact bai ye and dehua to see the recent arrangements. we will arrange to go to china as soon as possible. since France is already one step ahead, we belong to the same continent, so we can’t fall behind. we must seize the time. this exchange is likely to be an opportunity for our Singapore cuisines to develop a new direction. we must pay attention to it.”
“alright, master. i’ll go and contact them now.” tang lei answered directly.
as a person who had personally witnessed and even tasted yuan zhou’s dishes, tang le clearly understood how terrifying yuan zhou’s cooking skills were. originally, a large part of the Singapore cuisines originated from the improvement and extension of chinese cuisines. therefore, it would definitely be more beneficial to communicate more with such a great chef.
yuan zhou had no idea that opello was planning the exchange meeting between Singapore and china. however, juman li’s arrival didn’t only mean that he had eaten several meals here.
the other associations had also received the news, and juman li was quite famous in the top cooking circle, so it caused a chain reaction.
for example, fujiwara jiayuan Japan personally called dashi to ask about this matter. he also asked them that japan could actually change the exchange meeting between china and japan to twice a year.
naturally, Thailand, which had sucha as its backer, had the same reaction as Japan. of course, because they had yet to have an exchange, their country was already making nervous preparations, planning to have an exchange in all aspects.
as for the other asian countries, they naturally began to find their own ways to come to china for an exchange. as a result, the officials received many exchange applications from other countries, and the atmosphere became much livelier.
by the way, because ju man li had a meal at li li’s western restaurant and taught him a few moves, li li ... earned a lot again.
it was almost dinner time, and taoxi road was still very lively.
although wu hai wasn’t there, everyone’s enthusiasm to line up didn’t decrease. moreover, the first and second seats had been rearranged. as they didn’t have wu hai’s ability, they could only take turns to be the banker and see who had the better luck.
the number one tonight was the well-deserved queen. jiang changxi had won the first place. even wu hai didn’t dare to be stubborn in front of her, let alone others.
“it’s really a pity that wu hai isn’t here today. ” jiang changxi rolled up a strand of long hair that fell beside her ear and revealed a regretful expression on her face.
“i don’t think wu hai needs such treatment.” it was rare for wu yungui to follow jiang changxi.
This time, the two of them had an appointment to discuss some cooperation. The location of the discussion was naturally at Wu Yungui’s Food City. It was convenient for them to have dinner and celebrate the cooperation.
The two of them had arrived very early. To be able to occupy the first and second place was definitely due to their strength.
“The Wu Hai you are talking about, is he the most famous young artist in Huaxia who is known as the European doorman?” Wu Yungui’s descendant, Qiao Hongtao, was tall and burly. He looked very boorish.
He was also the third party in the discussion of cooperation with Wu Yungui and Jiang Changxi today. After the discussion, he was dragged here to line up by the two people who said they wanted to be the host.
The reason why he knew Wu Hai’s name was that although Qiao Hongtao looked crude, he was actually very artistically inclined. He especially liked paintings and had collected a lot of oil paintings and ink wash paintings. Although he might not know much about them, he could still say a few words about some famous artists.
What Wu Yungui and the others said was very different from what he had heard of painter Wu, but he thought that the one that came out of their mouths must not be underestimated. This was the experience Qiao Hongtao had gained from today’s cooperation.
“That’s right, it’s him,” Wu Yungui nodded.
“So painter Wu also likes to eat here? Then I must have a good taste of the great artist’s favorite food. ” Qiao Hongtao said.
Originally, he wasn’t very interested in what to eat, but now he was in high spirits. When he returned to China in the future, he could say that he had eaten the food that the painter Wu Hai liked to eat. After rounding it up, it was equivalent to having a meal with Wu Hai. People in the circle would definitely be very envious.
Qiao Hongtao was a Singapore Chinese. This time, he came to cooperate with Jiang Changxi because of Wu Yungui’s Food City. Of course, it was a sad story for Wu Yungui as to why Jiang Changxi came with him, which was not mentioned here.
“Boss Yuan’s food will definitely broaden your horizons. There are authentic Singapore delicacies. Mr. Qiao, you can try them later.” Jiang Changxi continued.
Boss Yuan? Qiao Hongtao felt that the name sounded a little familiar. He might have heard of it before. However, he didn’t think of it at the moment and didn’t pay much attention to it. Instead, he was more interested in the authentic Singapore Food that Jiang Changxi mentioned.
