Chapter 640 - 640: Who Doesn't Have a Background?
Chapter 640: Chapter 640: Who Doesn’t Have a Background?
Without people saying, at least at this moment, the ten people present from Pingla are not from ordinary families.
For example, Parker Honi’s family is in the livestock breeding business, owning a large ranch in Merity Province.
From cattle, sheep, to milk and a series of products, they have their own complete industry chain from breeding to selling.
The tastiest and highest grade beef in the country so far is produced by the Honi family.
If Parker Honi wanted to start his own restaurant, it would be a piece of cake.
Jasmine Hudson’s family runs a food import and export business.
Aiden Huxley’s family is in the fast-food business.
Like the frozen cuisine placed in the supermarket’s refrigerator, such as frozen dumplings, frozen ravioli, frozen dumplings, frozen donuts, frozen cakes, etc.
This convenience, customers buy it home, boiling it and you can eat it, without any cooking skills, as long as you can boil water.
Gladys Joy’s family is in the business of semi-finished products.
Like in the supermarket’s refrigerator, all the side dishes and seasonings have been matched, and you just need to stir-fry it when you get it home, without having to do your own research.
There are also non-food industries.
Anyway, these people are not simple at home, and they are not short of money.
If they really want to open their own restaurant and make a brand, there is no need for Edward Lopez to help with anything.
Therefore, the likes of Parker Honi didn’t really take to heart what Edward Lopez’s assistant said.
The assistant took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his heart, and cursed silently that these people did not know how to appreciate.
However, anyway, Edward Lopez’s target was not them.
As far as he knew, even if these people didn’t care, Cindy Clarke, Larry Bennett and Yellen Brooks were all ordinary people.
Could they not be moved by such temptation?
Larry Bennett and Yellen Brooks indeed hesitated.
Yellen Brooks actually doubted Edward Lopez’s motives.
Where in the world is such a good thing, you don’t have to do anything, and there’s investment knocking on the door.
In terms of talent, Yellen Brooks felt that she was still a bit short and had not yet reached the point where others would actively invest in her. Even among the top 10 people under Pingla Academy, people need to think about their investments, right?
There is no reason to decide after just one look.
Yellen Brooks’ family is just comfortable, nothing special.
The same goes for Larry Bennett.
Therefore, the audition for the Cooking Competition open to the society was attended by contestants because their family conditions were ordinary, and they wanted to prove themselves through the Cooking Competition and secure a future for themselves.
As a woman, Yellen Brooks instinctively didn’t feel very good.
However, Edward Lopez has made a name for himself, but Yellen Brooks herself feels that her looks are not outstanding and just mediocre.
It’s not worth making Edward Lopez covet anything.
Honestly, whether it’s cooking or looks, she doesn’t have enough capital.
Therefore, Yellen Brooks was hesitant about what Edward Lopez wanted to do.
She hesitated about whether or not to check it out and see what was going on.
Because she really has nothing that Edward Lopez values.
She doesn’t even know where to lose it.
Larry Bennett’s thinking is more straightforward.
As a man, there’s nothing for him to lose, unless Edward Lopez’s orientation is a bit crooked.
He actually wanted to see what Edward Lopez wanted to do.
Ava Brown quietly pulled Yellen Brooks over and whispered, “Edward Lopez is no good. Don’t listen to him bragging. We don’t know what he wants us to do if he calls us over. Does he want to show off his influence by calling so many people at once?”
“Besides, Edward Lopez’s investment in recent years is all related to the Internet industry. It has nothing to do with our culinary industry. Think carefully about those investments of his, they never go without some pretty girls. What does he want from any of us?”
“Maybe he just wants to humiliate us to show that he’s high above.”
Yellen Brooks was a bit hesitant originally, but after hearing Ava Brown’s words, her wavering heart immediately steadied.
“Do you know Edward Lopez?” Yellen Brooks asked quietly.
After spending these days with them, Yellen Brooks also knew that the people from Pingla Academy were probably not from simple families.
It can also be seen from their speech and manners that their background is not ordinary.
In fact, these things are not snobbish, and it is hard to divide into any kind of hierarchy.
It’s just because of the birth environment, decades of influence from childhood to adulthood, that indeed some differences can be felt.
Some trust-fund babies are flamboyant and have no manners, arrogant and disdainful of others.
Some rich gentlemen and ladies have good manners and elegant demeanor, eloquent and extraordinary.
But these are just good and bad differences in their character.
But in consumer concepts, perceptions of everyday things, and common sense perceptions.
Regardless of the quality of manners, the perception deeply ingrained in the bones is somewhat different.
So, Yellen Brooks asked Ava Brown if she knew Edward Lopez.
But Belfard is so big, there are a lot of rich people, and the various circles of rich people are also different.
She just asked, Ava Brown and Edward Lopez might not be in the same circle.
Ava Brown said, “I think my parents know his parents, but we haven’t met. Because he has been studying abroad for many years and only comes back on vacation. When he comes back, his friends gather around him, attracting hordes of admirers. If something disgusting happens, the news quickly spreads in our circle.”
Ava Brown was not hiding the fact that she was indeed on par with Edward Lopez in terms of family background.
Yellen Brooks knew that she guessed correctly. As such, even though the two families are familiar with each other, Ava Brown and Edward Lopez have no intersection and haven’t even seen each other.
“Whenever our family participates in any business activities, I am not interested in going. Anyway, my interest is not in business. I just want to perfect my cuisine, and in the future, whether it is to open a restaurant or establish my own food brand, it is possible. As for those things in business, I have no interest in participating, so Edward Lopez has never seen me.”
And even if she did meet Edward Lopez, she was not interested in participating in her peers’ games, she was not interested in dealing with Edward Lopez at all.
So, even on stage today, Edward Lopez couldn’t recognize her.
Including Parker Honi and others, their family backgrounds are quite solid, but they have different interests.
Parker Honi and them have been studying and improving their cooking skills at Pingla Academy for many years. The competition pressure within Pingla Academy is particularly high.
They are all chasing each other. Even if they are in first place or in the top ten, there is a risk of being competed out at any time.
So, where would they have time to make those gorgeous shows? Their own effort is not enough.
They’re not interested in their own business, and they don’t ask much, after all, most of them are not the only children in their family, not the eldest, there are elder brothers and sisters holding up the family at home.
