Chapter 648 - Renown Throughout The Province (2/2)

“It’s gonna be a headline on the front page. It’s the first time for Tengyuan to be defeated.” Old Li took out his phone and typed quickly. What he was typing was unknown to others, but either way, he typed very quickly.

“Hey, I’m talking to you. Why did you suddenly begin to work?” Old Li also started to edit the contents on his phone and then sent it out, not giving any impression of weakness.

This set a bad example. After that, other reporters also stopped talking and started to prepare for the press release.

On the following day, all the renowned newspapers and magazines reported this exchange meeting.

Actually, this news had been reported nationwide. However, the gourmet magazines of other provinces or districts all had their own different focus. For example, the gourmet magazine, Weekly Recommendations Of Delicacies in Shanghai, gave the report as below:

“During the Sino-Japan exchange meeting, the Chinese chef Yuan Zhou conquered all guests from Japan with his superb culinary skills. Even the pickiest Professor Tengyuan had to admit his dishes were excellent in regards to color, fragrance, and taste. This exchange meeting is a display of our abundant food culture and also a display of the influence that Chinese food exerted on the world…”

Most of them did the same way. They did mention that Yuan Zhou had conquered Tengyuan, but they laid much emphasis on the content behind.

That was called “bearing in mind the general situation”.

However, Sichuan Province was different because Yuan Zhou was a genuine Sichuan person. Therefore, the gourmet magazines from the province simply praised Yuan Zhou as much as they could.

“The Chef Yuan Zhou from Chengdu amazed everyone present in the exchange meeting with the ingenious craftsmanship of deboning the Japanese Grenadier Anchovies and thus created a legend,” from On Sichuan Cuisines.

“What’s the most delicious steamed rice in the world? If you ask me that way, the answers might be different. But from today on, the answer will keep the same. The Steamed Rice With Japanese Grenadier Anchovies cooked by Boss Yuan made even the Japanese professor, who is believed to be the best on Chinese foods, speechless,” from Gourmet Family.

Such headlines like The Man Who Has The Best Knife Skills, The Unparalleled Fascination or How Chef Yuan Became The Best, filled various gourmet magazines throughout Sichuan Province.

Even the renowned freelance writer, Ah La, from Sichuan Province made a comment on his special column.

“Mr. Jin Shengtan once said the most regrettable thing in his life was that the Japanese Grenadier Anchovy had so many fish bones. I have traveled the fair and wide in this country for quite a few years and eaten a lot of good things, but never have I seen such a dish worth looking at, let alone a delicious one. There are indeed many fish bones in the anchovies, but its meat is really really tender. That’s why there are so many articles to use.”

“The regrettable thing is that there were so many fish bones that have affected people tasting it. I didn’t believe it could be solved until I saw Chef Yuan debone it. I could find no words to describe this. It’s dramatic, fantastic, and requires superhuman craftsmanship. I don’t know how to describe this feeling precisely, thus I have to say this.”

“I have been conquered by Chef Yuan. I don’t care what the taste will be, I will definitely go to his restaurant for a taste just for the knife skills.”

Ah La traveled extensively because he was famous for recommending delicious dishes. He had a unique preference on taste and enjoyed good popularity. Therefore, he had three special columns on the Sichuan Gourmet Papers and which reported about Yuan Zhou and the exchange meeting.

As a result, there were all kinds of reports about the exchange meeting for the several consecutive days and basically, all of them would mention Yuan Zhou.

Yuan Zhou’s reputation soared rapidly and had gone out of Chengdu. He was now at the highest level in the whole Sichuan Province and had successfully made himself known to the people nationwide.

Yuan Zhou had benefited a lot from this exchange meeting with regards to fame.

“I will be leaving first. Bye, Chairman,” Yuan Zhou pulled his luggage and said goodbye to Zhou Shijie.

“Take care on your way back. You have your own restaurant, so I’m not going to keep you here.” Zhou Shijie nodded his head and waved his hand to Yuan Zhou.

“Goodbye.” Yuan Zhou nodded his head and then he walked straight towards the departure gate with the luggage in his hand.

That’s right. Yuan Zhou left right away as soon as the exchange meeting was over this time. Now, he was on his way back to Chengdu.

At that time, the system suddenly popped out.

The system displayed, “A main mission has been released. Do you accept it?”
