Shokugeki no Imitation Chef

"How? What's going on? The commander-in-chief would actually agree to the appointment of a general counsel..." Liu Maoxing hurriedly asked Erina.

At this time, Liu Maoxing's first ten outstanding council meeting in his career has come to an end.

In the end, after the female secretary said something in Senzaemon's ear, Senzaemon actually agreed with the general counsel with a gloomy face... Of course, the person who is the chief counsel is Nakiri Ji, not Liu Maoxing.

As for the other proposals, they were not approved, but they were not rejected on the spot...

And three days later, there will be a presentation with directors, partners, and many other important people in the culinary industry as guests. At that time, the students of the central food agency and the current students of Yuanyue Academy will conduct a "cooking show"... …

Although Liu Maoxing didn't have super-hearing, but under the action of internal force, his hearing was far better than that of ordinary people. Although he was far away at that time, he also heard some secretary's words.

But it was just some vague words like "supplier", "sponsorship", "student graduation rate", "ticket right"... After the meeting, Erina went to find Senzaemon, and Liu Maoxing was waiting for her outside .

"He has persuaded many suppliers and directors, and there are several consortiums and culinary giants in the United States to support him. As long as he becomes the general counsel, he can get huge financial support for Yuanyue Group, and the United States can give the green light all the way. The establishment of a new campus, and what he said swears that he has cultivated young people who are far better than Yuanyue's current students, so many neutral directors also want to see his effectiveness after becoming the general counsel." Erina Also began to call Nakiri Ji "him" vaguely.

"So the commander-in-chief compromised?" Liu Maoxing asked helplessly.

"Actually, in the Council of the Ten Elites, the other party has more votes than us. Although one person, one vote is used for major event decisions, they have an advantage in daily proposals," Erina said.

Liu Maoxing knew about this a long time ago, after all, the ten outstanding men that Ning Qie Ji recruited were all in the top ranks.

"What about the commander-in-chief? He doesn't have the right to vote in the usual proposals?" Liu Maoxing asked suspiciously.

If this is the case, then Nakiriji should be more unscrupulous...

"No, but there is a right of veto and the right to make proposals directly. If there is a complete fallout, the management of the college will be paralyzed, and neither party's proposal will be passed. At that time, the board of directors will definitely take the opportunity to obtain certain proposals. The result is still the same, and Yuanyue Academy will lose its autonomy over the board of directors, so grandpa needs to give in to a certain extent." Erina said.

"The commander-in-chief must need those directors..." Liu Maoxing said helplessly.

"Our Nakiri family started from scratch a hundred years ago. When we founded the academy ninety-two years ago, we even bought a few pieces of wasteland, and we gradually prospered fifty years ago... Although we now have the management rights of Yuanyue, it is quite Large shares and other industries, but there is no background that can get rid of the directors." Erina said.

"You started from scratch a hundred years ago?" Liu Maoxing muttered. At first he thought that the Nakiri family should also have a long history, but suddenly he remembered that in Hokkaido, Alice also said once that the situation of the Nakiri family was "special". , no family crest or anything like that...

Seeing that Liu Maoxing was depressed and seemed to be regretting not being able to kick Nakieji away immediately, Erina added: "Actually, it's not that bad. Most of the directors of Yuanyue Group are more concerned about the development of the academy, otherwise Yuanyue Academy will not lose money all the time, relying on other sub-groups to send blood...

When Grandpa got the investment, he also considered the directors, but those directors were basically old and would be inherited by the next generation, so it is inevitable that some people will be eager for quick success..."

"They now think that 'maybe' can really make Yuanyue Group better?" Liu Maoxing's tone was a little frivolous, as if he was dissatisfied with the short-sightedness of the directors.

"Actually, in the eyes of the directors, his proposal is indeed very tempting. It can allow Yuanyue to set up a branch in Mizhou, train students more efficiently, and inject more funds...Ordinary directors are easily deceived by him. "

"Then why don't you tell them quickly that his so-called 'students' are all cheating? Even after leaving him, they don't have the qualifications to be independent chefs at all?" Liu Maoxing frowned.

"It's useless. Most directors are indeed more concerned about the development and influence of Yuanyue Academy, but they can only see the next three to five years at most! In a short period of time, his methods are indeed effective. As for the future... I even doubt , some directors already believe in his vision of 'reforming' the entire culinary world, and are willing to support him!" Erina's tone became serious.

"That is to say, the presentation three days later is very important, and will determine the attitudes of many directors who were originally neutral..." Liu Maoxing squinted his eyes as he said.

The central gourmet organization of Nakie Ji not only has adult cooks as its "minions", but also has the nature of some training institutions. There are a group of junior high school and high school students. In the original plot, after Nakie Ji became the coach, these are also His culinary skills are displayed, and Yuanyue's partners and directors have confidence and support in him.

"Yes, but..."

"Tell the commander-in-chief to wait until a week later!" Liu Maoxing said directly.

"What are you going to do? It's useless for you to be alone. Even if you can overwhelm the audience, everyone will still see the overall culinary level of the academy. When the time comes..."

"Don't worry, I have a way to deflate him once."

"Okay, I'll try my best to tell Grandpa to delay, but you have to know that the Top Ten will only attend this exhibition as a guide, because what they want to see... is the overall level of the students."

Because of Liu Maoxing's insistence, in the end Senzaemon also had certain expectations and postponed the "exhibition" for a whole week, but in this way, Nakiriji invited more important people in the culinary world from all over the world to participate.

The news of the exhibition also spread among the students.

In fact, Erina and the others didn't fully understand what Liu Maoxing did. After all, in their view, as long as they persisted for another two months, during these two months, they would ensure that the Council of the Ten Heroes would not be controlled by Ning Qieji or seized power by the board of directors. Two months later, the top five graduates will be their home games immediately, and after the new school year starts two months later, the new top ten will be elected, so they can naturally be expelled again.

However, the commander-in-chief seems to have a similar opinion with Liu Maoxing, and he doesn't want to simply insist on a "compromise" for two months!

Liu Maoxing's idea is very simple. Knowing that there are still two months left, it is impossible for Ning Qieji to sit still and wait for death. He must be prepared to uproot his power in Yuan Yue within two months... At least let the Nakie Ji was exhausted for two months and had no time to plan any new plots.

And Liu Maoxing also went to the United States during this week, which was obviously related to his method of dealing with the "exhibition". No wonder Erina was transferred to the head coach, and he tried to delay it until a week later!

This is the second time for Liu Maoxing to go to the United States. During the summer vacation, Liu Maoxing spent the first month in the Nordic "Yuanyue International" research institute, and in the second month, he came to the United States. At that time, Alice was still wondering... …

In fact, when he was at Yuanyue International, because of an exchange between the American Cuisine Research Center and the Nordic "Yuanyue International", Liu Maoxing met several people in the field of "new cooking technology" in the United States, and because of Liu Maoxing's cooking. The ability comparable to that of a human computer made the other party very interested, and because of this, I got to know several talents in "new cuisine research" in the United States.

The research direction of "New Cuisine" in the United States is quite different from the research direction of "New Cuisine" in Yuanyue International. Alice's father, Nakiri Zongwei, thinks that the research direction of Americans is of limited value, but Liu Maoxing is somewhat interested, so in After being "chased" by Nakiri Zongwei, he was invited to the United States...

"Although those technologies are still far from perfect, and it's hard to become mainstream in a short period of time, it should still be possible to scare people!" Liu Maoxing thought while lying on the pillow of the plane seat.

After becoming one of the top ten, for Liu Maoxing, the daily courses are optional, and he can save even asking for leave. After all, the top ten cannot be measured by ordinary students!

But before Liu Maoxing came out, he still talked to Professor Chapel...

"Sure enough, you went to the United States during the summer vacation. What's the name of their 'New Cuisine' research center?"

"Athena Intelligent Cuisine Research Center."

"Yes, that's the Athena Research Center. You were there during the last month of summer vacation, right? Was it fun?"

"Fun? I'm not going to play...Ah! You, why are you here?" Liu Maoxing suddenly realized, sitting next to him, half of his face was covered by the brim of his hat, and the person wearing sunglasses was actually Alice!

Because Alice took the seat first, and Liu Maoxing boarded the plane later, so I didn't pay much attention to it before.

"Accompany you to America!" Alice said.

"Huh? When did you tell me about this?" Liu Maoxing expressed helplessness to Alice's tone.

"Didn't I tell you now..."

"What if I disagree?"

It's too late to disagree, the stewardess has already reminded everyone to fasten their seat belts!

"My dad will go to Yuanyue Academy tomorrow. Do you need to help me with anything? Or...do you want me to go back immediately after arriving in the United States? That's not bad. After I go back, I will definitely have a good 'chat' with my dad, such as during the summer vacation half a year ago. things..."

"Ahem, I mean it's great to have you with me!"

Seeing Liu Maoxing's appearance, Alice couldn't help but feel satisfied, and then said seriously: "But do you really think that there is nothing wrong with the research direction of the Athena Research Center? That has been put on hold by our 'Yuanyue International' research direction."

"Research! There is no problem. If you don't do in-depth research, how will you know if there is a problem? And since Yuanyue International has begun to put most of its research power on molecular cuisine, then other research centers, respectively It's not bad to study other fields... Even if it's a wrong branch, you have to go to know, whether it is human beings or the culinary world, neither progress is always correct." Liu Maoxing said.

"You didn't go to America this time just to say these cool lines, did you?"

"No... I'm planning to use their half-finished product, disgusting your uncle and try it once!"

"Will they lend it to you?"

"I think there should be a high possibility. After all, at the exhibition next week, not only important figures in the culinary world of the island country will be there. Such a good opportunity to show their faces is also very beneficial to them, isn't it?" Liu Maoxing speculated.

"But their degree of completion... can they really be compared with uncle's 'students'?" Alice frowned.

"Of course... it's not comparable! I just want its symbolic meaning..."
