Chapter 425: Schadenfreude

After the first video of the third season was broadcast, the program was filled with bad reviews, and the comment section was a disaster.

Bai Renzong did not deny that he was a little gloating, but all this was foreseeable.

First of all, it is the theme of the program. Bai Renzong knew that in order to make money, he would definitely choose "fried chicken" and other themes that can get a lot of sponsorship.

However, this theme undoubtedly seriously restricts the chef's performance. Even the best chefs can make them only fried chicken.

Because the heavy-mouthed cooking method of frying will cover up a lot of taste and taste details, fried chicken mainly relies on sauce and marination to reflect the chef's skills. Unfortunately, both details test the taste of the review.

This is also the second point that this show has received a lot of negative reviews: the review.

Although Zuo Teng Ryoto, Alan Robus and Rossini Salerno were also very professional in the past, Bai Renzong was different from theirs.

Bai Renzong mainly analyzed a dish from the taste and ingredients, while the other three explained him, supplementing it from the dishes, cooking methods and seasonings.

As for Yang Zheng, he may be very professional in cooking, but he is just an ordinary person after all.

Who is the chef on site not a Michelin-level chef?

What's more, Yang Zheng's professionalism is in conflict with the style of the other three judges and cannot make up for each other. Rather than saying that the four people comment together, it is better to say that they are competing with each other. Yang Zheng takes advantage of speaking Mandarin and does not need to translate, so he is basically alone and the other three judges can occasionally interject a few words.

In short, the first episode of Season 3 was a disaster, and the comments below were almost all negative.

With such a bad start, everyone naturally began to miss Lao Bai's days.

Of course, for Bai Renzong, it was also a bit sad in addition to gloating. After all, this was a program he founded. It was really frustrating to see that this program was ruined so much that he was powerless.

However, it was not only Bai Renzong who was gloating, but he contacted him the next day.

"Old Bai, have you watched yesterday's food match season 3?" Fan Shiwei smiled excitedly, "It's simply a disaster!"

"Yes, I've watched it." Bai Renzong replied, "I think there will be fewer people willing to sponsor this season after this season."

"And this is when we take action." Fan Shiwei smiled, "Are we going to start publicity?"

"No, wait for two more episodes." Bai Renzong shook his head, "Don't be anxious. When everyone realizes that the third season is no longer saved, it is time for us to take action. At present, everyone still has the mentality of taking chances and thinks that the second episode may get better."

"So, the chef... are you sure?" Fan Shiwei tentatively, "It's not that I want to urge you, but... if the project team can see the list of participating chefs, they will be more confident and can also get more sponsors."

"This is fine. I'll send the list to you right away." Bai Renzong said readily.

In fact, he had already set the list of participating chefs a week after the end of season 2.

Six of them are on a fixed list, and among the remaining two, one is the representative of Japanese cuisine, and the other is the chef recommended by Master Zhang Guanghan. According to the specific circumstances at that time, several candidate newcomers can be placed.

What is the "All-Star Lineup"? This is the real All-Star.

As for the third season of "Food Match and Fighting Season D, Bai Renzong is going to observe a few more episodes before talking about it: He is not in a hurry in this regard of the new program. The more severe the reputation on D station D, the better the contrast effect of his new program.

But Station D is not a fool. "Food matches are filmed every week so that they can make adjustments based on the content of the program at any time. After receiving a lot of bad reviews in the first episode, Station D also realized that it is not okay to pay too much attention to making money and ignore the quality of the program.

So the theme of the second issue was adjusted.

The first episode of the program is temporary, so the second episode of the program will be announced in advance to give the chef some preparation time.

After the show was broadcast on Saturday, a video was released on Sunday night. In the video, Yang Zheng sat casually beside the "throne" guarding the two beauties, and announced the theme of the second issue with a cold look on his face: "Shrimp."

In just this video in less than two minutes, I received thousands of complaints: "Is this person a second-year illness or what?" "This attitude is too arrogant. This is not a judge. He is simply a father." "I miss Lao Bai the next day."

"But at least the theme of the second issue does not seem to be a sponsorship..." Bai Renzong shrugged.

However, on the day the second episode was broadcast, Bai Renzong realized that he was too naive.

Although the second issue is themed "shrimp", Station D is no longer satisfied with using this "obscure" method to sponsor the theme. Instead, it directly implants crayfish advertisements in the program and adds several crayfish coupons in the takeaway app below the video.

This behavior directly caused strong complaints from the audience, and everyone angrily criticized the ugly appearance of the station.

You should know that it is almost December and the season for eating crayfish is over. At this time, the crayfish that are still being supplied are basically the remaining "old, weak, sick and disabled" in the previous peak season. So some people questioned that Station D is just a bad money and helps merchants deal with these crayfish that no one wants.

Faced with this accusation, D Station chose to remain silent, not to mention that they had nothing to refute.

Bai Renzong knew this very well. Beichang City is also one of the main production areas of crayfish, but so far most restaurants selling crayfish have stopped serving crayfish, because it is indeed after the crayfish season, the crayfish they brought out have no meat at all.

In addition to the fact that the money is just a bit bad, the second thing that makes the audience very upset is Yang Zheng, a judge who replaces Bai Renzong.

In the theme trailer for the first and second episodes, Yang Zheng's performance was questioned and criticized by netizens, and was constantly compared with Bai Renzong. This guy was directly broken by netizens and publicly criticized the audience on Weibo and D stations, not only calling the audience a group of "feudal elements who don't understand food", but also bringing Bai Renzong with him.

Yang Zheng publicly confronted Bai Renzong in his speech on Station D and Weibo, saying that Bai Renzong was a "lazy person who didn't know how to cook at all, and he was also embarrassed to comment on other people's professional chefs."

Bai Renzong did not respond to this, but netizens had already responded to him: "Oh? I commented that the refrigerator must be cooled?" "I can't play football and I'm embarrassed to say that the national football team is playing poorly?" "What can you go to a restaurant to eat if you can't cook?" "You deserve to say that Lao Bai is an outsider? People can know what ingredients are used in the dish in one bite. Can you do it?"

Faced with the angry criticism of netizens, Yang Zheng refused to admit his mistake, and at the same time closed the reply to his comments and chose to deal with it in a cold manner.

In order to vent their anger, the audience naturally mocked Yang Zheng on the show, and then gave negative reviews crazily, which was also the second failure in the show.

Finally, the third failure of the show is that the chef's level is too different.

In the first episode, because the theme is fried chicken, this simple dish cannot reflect the gap in the chef's level, but the theme of the second episode is "shrimp", which gives the chef more free place to play, which reflects the level difference.

Not to mention Yang Zheng's score, Zuo Teng Ryoto, Rosini Salerno and Allen Robbs have always been very strict in scoring. The minimum score they gave was only 50, which came from a two-star Michelin Chinese restaurant "Huifenglou".

And this cannot be blamed on several judges. The chef's cooking was just a simple and unpretentious dish like "crystal shrimp", which was simply perfunctory. If Bai Renzong came on stage, he would scold the chef so much.

Correspondingly, Jiangchuan Yousheng’s cooking shrimp meat fried dumplings were ground into powder and mixed with flour to make dumpling skins. The shrimp meat was ground into minced meat and mixed into shrimp brain to make dumpling filling, and got a high score of 98 cents.

This huge difference caused another problem: a chef from R book crushed others with level.

In Bai Renzong's program, chefs from R books are often invited. At the same time, foreign chefs such as Adam often get high scores, uu reading books www.uukanshu.com, but there are always masters like Zhang Guanghan who can represent Chinese cuisine and have superb skills that can regain face for Chinese cuisine. However, in this program, these chefs from "Michelin-level Chinese restaurants" are simply embarrassing Chinese cuisine.

The highest score of these Chinese restaurant chefs from Allen Robbs was 75 points, which further aroused the audience's dissatisfaction.

Based on the above three points, the reputation of the second period continues to decline.

In the face of various accusations from the audience, D Station has no choice but to do anything, because these are all caused by the level of chefs and the level of review, and are "hard flaws".

Bai Renzong was not surprised at all. First of all, Michelin does not know Chinese food, and even Chinese restaurants that can get three-star reviews may not be very good in China. Secondly, the chefs in this period were hired at a high price at D station. In other words, these chefs are interested in high appearance fees.

But in fact, a truly excellent chef doesn’t value money too much, even Samsung Michelin restaurants don’t make much money.

Just talk about Adam, as the world's No. 1 Michelin restaurant chef, he made more money in a year than Bai Renzong in a month.

If you really want to make money, what else can you be a chef?

What an excellent chef needs is enthusiasm and love for cooking, so if you are attracted by money to participate in this program, your skills will naturally not be much better.

"Okay, this farce ends here, and we can almost start acting." Bai Renzong turned off the second video of the third season of the Food and Match Season 3, and sighed in a complicated mood, "Let's start with the promotion first."
