Chapter 443

Once the king appears, who can compete?

When the guests and chefs on-site smelled the fragrance that was enough to make a Buddha jump over the wall, they already knew who the title of God of Cookery should belong to.

Fortunately, although there was only one God of Cookery, all the chefs who entered the final could participate in the production of the state banquet a few days later; their purpose for coming this time was considered achieved.

In addition, being able to witness so many dishes that exceeded imagination was truly a trip worth taking.

It can only be said that for Miss Luo Quan as the God of Cookery, they were convinced.

Soon, after tasting all the dishes, the judges announced the scores they had given.

Without any suspense, Miss Luo Quan won again with a full score, becoming the champion of this God of Cookery Competition.

After the competition, True Bream Jiangshan Painting and Buddha Jumps Over the Wall were not just as simple as trending on searches, but had exploded on WeChat Moments.

You can get on trending searches by spending some money, but being able to make WeChat Moments full of related news is definitely a major hot spot nationwide.

The God of Cookery Competition was originally a program strongly promoted by CCTV recently, and the people watching it were mostly middle-aged and elderly, but with Miss Luo Quan's participation, young people also became interested, which made the audience group very wide.

And the two dishes Miss Luo Quan made in the final had very big gimmicks.

One was inspired by the map of China, making one fish in four ways, incorporating the four specialty dietary flavors of the four regions; it was ingenious and had a high concept.

And Buddha Jumps Over the Wall goes without saying; one dish embodied China's unique dietary culture to the fullest, the production process used almost all cooking methods, and the ingredients were also quite rich.

Although the appearance of the finished product could not compare to the True Bream Jiangshan Painting, the taste was unanimously recognized by all the guests on-site, and Wu Tao even used "This taste is number one in the world!" to praise it.

A highly respected senior in the culinary world making such an evaluation on CCTV, how much authority it has is self-evident.

Overnight, these two dishes of Miss Luo Quan directly swiped the screen on WeChat Moments; almost everyone who talked about the food they wanted to eat would mention these two dishes.

The good news is that these two dishes did not have such strict requirements for production methods like the Golden Laughing Bun; although they were a bit troublesome, they were definitely replicable.

At the end of the program, Miss Luo Quan also generously published the recipes, and major restaurants started researching them that night.

A few chefs with higher levels were already able to make True Bream Jiangshan Painting the next day.

Although the taste was certainly not as good as what Miss Luo Quan made in the program, ordinary people had never eaten the dishes made by Miss Luo Quan anyway.

Now is the time when this dish is famous; many people are doing it for a follow-the-trend mentality, taking photos and checking in after eating; whether it is posted to WeChat Moments to get likes or posted to Douyin to attract traffic, it is all-conquering.

By comparison, Miss Luo Quan in Beijing seemed much more plain.

Generally speaking, the chef who wins the God of Cookery Competition is bound to be a big head chef that every five-star hotel craves.

But her situation was a bit too special; the whole country knew she was a singer, and in most people's eyes, she only came to participate in the competition to play around, but they didn't expect her strength to be so strong, directly winning the championship with an invincible posture.

Although she won the championship, these hotels also knew it was impossible to sign her; music was Miss Luo Quan's main business.

Therefore, after the competition ended, no hotel contacted her; after all, the recipes were published, and there was nothing to talk about even if they found her.

So these past few days, she had been playing with her phone and slacking off in the hotel. Three days later, she officially participated in the production of the state banquet.

Unlike the God of Cookery Competition broadcast in front of the whole country, Miss Luo Quan and all the other chefs did not have the opportunity to appear in front of the camera.

They were all brought into the kitchen to cook after strict security checks, and went home after finishing; after all, the purpose of foreign guests coming to China was not to eat dishes, and they wouldn't specifically call the cook over to praise them in person just because the dishes were delicious.

This time, Miss Luo Quan made Golden Laughing Bun and Beef Wellington, one Chinese dish and one Western dish.

And Buddha Jumps Over the Wall was left to Wu Tao to complete; this old chef's grasp of heat was even better than Miss Luo Quan's, and even Miss Luo Quan, who possessed so many magical kitchen utensils, could not guarantee that she could make it taste better than him.

After the state banquet was done, Miss Luo Quan's trip to Beijing was considered to have come to an end.

Although she couldn't show her face on a real big occasion, the dishes she made this time still left a quite deep impression on several big figures; even if it was just a simple word of praise, for the officials arranging the state banquet, it could definitely be considered as having achieved results.

With commendations level by level, Miss Luo Quan naturally received high praise from Deputy Minister Zhao here.

As the saying goes, a county magistrate is not as good as the current manager; being able to receive praise from the Deputy Minister of the GD Bureau almost means that she can walk sideways in the Chinese entertainment industry in the future. Whether it is music or film, passing the review will become much simpler than others.

This is the biggest gain of her trip.

And her itinerary did not stop there; since the New Year holiday stopped, she seemed not to have had much rest time.

First, she went to South Korea to accompany Wen Xia and the others on variety shows, then transferred to the United States to win an Oscar, then returned to China to be a cook, and now she has to go to the United States again.

Because the annual Grammy Awards are about to start, as the most famous musician in recent years, she had said earlier that she would sweep the Grammys.

And this time, the Grammys also gave her face, directly inviting her to compose and sing for the opening performance.

In the past, the Grammy opening performance would invite big-name old guns in the industry for friendship performances, and newcomers rarely had the opportunity to go up, but this time they invited Miss Luo Quan; what information this represents is already very clear.

The domestic music scene, which had been silent for a period of time, suddenly fully recovered, starting to imagine how many Grammys Miss Luo Quan could win this time, and some even directly compared Miss Luo Quan's historical status with those old musicians of the last century.

In the current music scene, no one is enough to touch the porcelain of those old musicians of the last century, but except for Miss Luo Quan, she really has this qualification.

Many people are unwilling to admit it, but in fact, the achievements and level Miss Luo Quan has achieved today actually exceed many, many old seniors.

And after this Grammy, the controversy about her will basically disappear without a trace.

The authoritative music awards in China and Japan have already been swept by her; after winning the Grammys, let alone China, even the old seniors of the whole world, she has the qualification to touch them.

At that time, the title of the greatest singer of the new century will become more solid.

That's right, it is the greatest singer of the new century.

Now Miss Luo Quan's nickname is no longer some new generation singer-songwriter leader in Asia, but the greatest singer of the new century.

This has been certified by many music websites including "Rolling Stone" magazine; whether looking at it from a commercial perspective, musicality, or output, among the singers who debuted since the new century, not one can be compared with her.

The only factor affecting the public's recognition of this title may only be her age; nineteen years old is indeed a bit too young, but this also reflects from the side how talented Miss Luo Quan is.

In short, after the news that Miss Luo Quan was invited to participate in the Grammys came out, the whole internet had constant trending searches and discussions.

Zhihu has even started celebrating, celebrating that China has once again achieved a milestone in world culture and entertainment.

Although Bilibili's reaction was not so intense, the push that should be arranged was also arranged; after all, she is their own artist.

However, by comparison, fans are more concerned about the daily videos Miss Luo Quan posts.

When the news spread, Miss Luo Quan had already arrived in Los Angeles.

It had been less than a month since she last came here.

The Oscars were held at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood outside the city, while the Grammys were held at the Staples Center in the city.

People familiar with basketball know that this is the home court of the Los Angeles Lakers; whether at home or abroad, its popularity is quite high, and it is a must-visit place for many out-of-town tourists.

However, having come to Los Angeles several times before, Miss Luo Quan had never been here.

Of course, she hadn't been to other famous attractions either.

On one hand, it's laziness; on the other hand, there are many people here. If she goes to join the fun and gets recognized, she will have to become an attraction for others to check in.

But this time the situation is different; the Grammy Awards ceremony is considered a grand event one level lower than the Oscars in the entertainment industry.

The former invites film and television stars from all over the world, while the latter invites music stars from all over the world.

Of course, the two ceremonies did not set the invited guests so rigidly; as long as you are famous enough, whether you are a movie star, a singer, or even an internet celebrity, you can be invited to participate.

The red carpet of Western award ceremonies has always been a catwalk for female stars to show off their beauty and figure.

Last time at the Oscars, because Miss Luo Quan was not particularly confident about whether she could win the Golden Melody Award, the clothes she wore were relatively ordinary and low-key.

And this Grammy is completely her home court; for her, this is a node destined to become shining on her resume.

And for such an important node, how could she not attend in grand attire?

So when she came back from the Oscars, she asked Chanel headquarters for a high-definition dress that could support the scene.

It was definitely too late to make it now, but Chanel is a decades-old brand, and there are too many beautiful clothes accumulated; they directly sent several sets for Miss Luo Quan to choose from.

Among so many beautiful clothes, Miss Luo Quan chose a purple big dress; the hem of the dress was ridiculously large, imposing and noble, looking like a pair of fluffy wings. An average person would really find it difficult to control this style.

But for her, there is no style she cannot control.

She is a natural clothes hanger, her figure is even more explosive than most Victoria's Secret supermodels, and after making up for the flaw of the cat walk outside, now she wouldn't have any sense of violation even if she immediately went on the catwalk to walk the show.

On the night of the Grammys, Miss Luo Quan still arrived at the scene by car with Leon.

This time, Seifert also came along; the three of them got off the Lincoln stretch car together and walked towards the red carpet.

Unlike the low-key and cautiousness at the Oscars, Miss Luo Quan became quite confident and flamboyant this time.

In China, she has always been synonymous with humility, but foreign culture is different and won't eat this set; being too humble is hypocrisy.

With her current achievements, there is no need to use humility to gain the favor of passersby; the more confident she performs, the more she can gain the respect of others.

And today, no one can be more confident than her.

From passersby to reporters to singers, everyone knows that she came here today to sweep the Grammys, and even Jesus can't stop her!

And the wing dress she wore today clearly wanted to leave a deep impression on everyone present.

"The Staples Center tonight belongs to her home court." A reporter said so.

In the past, when he came here for interviews, these words were said to those stars playing basketball; listening to a singer today is really a bit strange.

But the facts are indeed so.

The two men specifically let Miss Luo Quan walk in front, accepting the baptism of the flash alone.

In the center of the red carpet, Miss Luo Quan stopped and accepted an interview as usual.

Compared with the past, Miss Luo Quan had endless words this time.

"Miss Luo Quan, what is your expectation for this Grammy?" The reporter quickly asked the question.

"Very big." Miss Luo Quan's smile was very bright, "Of course it's very big; after all, no one will think they have won too many awards, right?"

Another reporter said: "You look so beautiful today; this is very different from your pure and elegant image in the past."

"People are not immutable; sometimes it is normal to make changes." Miss Luo Quan smiled when she said this, "Besides, pure and elegant has never been my inherent label."

This is also true; she had taken so many dress promotional photos known for being sexy and enchanting for Chanel before, and there was also a whole photo album of beach photos. That bold appearance and hot figure really didn't match with being pure.

If you have to say it, that was only Miss Luo Quan's early style; the key is that although her face is pure, it has always been exuding the original sin of desire in everyone's heart from the beginning.

Therefore, being beautiful enough to ruin the country and the people should be her label.

After the reporters smiled, they continued to ask: "After winning the award this time, do you have any arrangements for the next step, whether it is in music or film and television? As far as I know, the theme song of "Titanic" has already been produced by you, right?"

This person is quite well-informed, and I don't know where he learned it.

Miss Luo Quan was secretly surprised, but the smile on her face did not change: "Regarding the specific details of "Titanic", I cannot reveal them for the time being. As for my own plans for the next step, there are probably two movies to shoot, and the other is to continue to maintain creation in music.

But for the album, it will definitely take some time; after all, a three-language album was just released a while ago, and even if I am high-yielding, I have to be given time to rest."

After the three questions were answered, the reporters still wanted to continue the discussion.

But this is the red carpet after all; even if it is her home court, she cannot occupy it for so long, and others have to walk.

So after answering this question, Miss Luo Quan said sorry to the reporters and turned to walk inside the Staples Center…………
