I found a life simulator.

Why not use Nakiri Managi's name to hang someone?

The mere mention of the name Nakiri Managi would surely draw countless people eager to participate, even at their own expense, but the publicity department is determined to prevent it.

The fact that Nakiri Managi will participate in the show will only be revealed before the program is recorded and after the publicity is done, supposedly to maintain mystery and maximize publicity to the public.

Nobushi Takahashi hasn't been able to invite a single person yet.

If you don't have the money to offer a decent appearance fee, and people don't know that your show has invited such a big star, who would be willing to come?

It's quite uncomfortable.

Being an inside man wasn't his choice, but he had no other option. He had invited so many people, but none of them were willing to come voluntarily to the friendly match.

The female chef in front of me looks kind.

I begged her to keep the secret once she knew it.

Besides, the publicity department won't let him reveal that she's Nakiri Managi. I won't give her real name, but at least I can give her a general identity.

“He is the only designated executive officer of WGO,” Nobushi Takahashi said in a low voice.

Upon hearing the name, Kobayashi Rindou didn't hesitate for a moment, "I'll go on this show."

Should we hesitate?

No need!

WGO, short for World-Gourmet-Organization, is a global food organization that awards the highest level of culinary excellence—three stars—to all restaurants around the world.

The organization publishes its annual results in book form, making it an organization that inspires awe in all culinary professionals.

Salespeople who conduct on-site evaluations within the organization are called "Executives," and there are four levels: First Grade, Second Grade, Third Grade, and Special Grade, with Special Grade being the highest level.

The organization was founded by Managi Nakiri, who is also the only WGO-designated executive officer.

The European Culinary Alliance is a culinary alliance that was split off from WGO. The European Culinary Alliance mainly governs culinary competitions, while the WGO Culinary Alliance is more comprehensive.

The only designated executive officer of the WGO Gourmet Alliance Association, the previous generation's God Tongue, whose culinary skills far surpass those of Erina Nakiri, was chosen as a judge.

This is a great honor for every chef.

Erina Nakiri's "God Tongue" is limited to judging the quality of a dish and identifying where the flavor is lacking. Managi Nakiri's "God Tongue," however, has reached the point where she can pinpoint which step in the cooking process went wrong and provide suggestions for improvement, thus enhancing the culinary skills of the person being evaluated.

However, Nakiri Managi wouldn't offer advice to those who cook particularly badly.

However, the number of dishes that can be instructed by Nakiri Managi is extremely small.

Kobayashi Rindou knew this was an opportunity for him, a chance, if he was lucky, to take his culinary journey a step further.

Upon hearing the name, I knew I had to go.

Is this the reputation of Nakiri Managi?

Nobushi Takahashi had thought that Nakiri Managi's reputation could attract a large number of chefs, but he never expected that her reputation would be so useful.

These chefs, who have already created value and have a certain status, are willing to participate in the show without pay or appearance fees.

"This is the registration list. Please fill it out and hand it to me," said Nobushi Takahashi, handing over a document before turning to move on to his next target.

With this successful case, Nobushi Takahashi finally gained more confidence.

So! Next goal!

Nobushi Takahashi walked up to Su Ze.

“Excuse me, Mr. Suze, I am a director from TV Tokyo. We have a food talent show called Midnight Chef, and we are short of some contestants. Would you be interested?” Nobushi Takahashi asked.

"Midnight chef?" Su Ze caught a sensitive word.

Isn't that just another name for "Underground Chef"?

“Yes.” Nobushi Takahashi nodded and said, “Your classmate Rindou Kobayashi is also going. You two can discuss the cooperation. During the preliminary rounds, it’s no problem to arrange for your single rooms to be next to each other.”

“Kobayashi Rindou is not my schoolmate.” Su Ze smiled awkwardly. “I’m not a student of Totsuki Culinary Academy, just a chef who’s passing through.”

Nobushi Takahashi arrived at the venue rather late because time was too tight, which meant he missed the start of the friendly match.

So they had no idea that Su Ze wasn't a member of Totsuki Academy.

"Oh, that could be a good way to socialize. I think her cooking is pretty good too." Nobushi Takahashi gave a knowing look.

In reality, he's just a workaholic virgin who only talks big.

"No need, no need," Su Ze quickly said, trying to smooth things over. What was wrong with this guy? Why did he start saying all sorts of strange things? Saving his life was the priority, so he had to distance himself from him first.

"Midnight Chef? I'm interested too, why don't we go together?" Erina Nakiri said, her eyes slightly narrowed. Ignoring the foolish things this person was saying that were courting death, she knew about the show.

Isn't this her mother's cooking show?

Erina still wanted to get in touch with her mother, and even wanted to challenge her. Their relationship had always been ordinary, or even at the point of a cold war.

Even in the future, things didn't improve, and Erina still can't understand why she was 'abandoned'.

Erina wouldn't feel comfortable unless she showed off her 'wonderful life' to her.

The more you show off in front of your own mother.

The more Erina enjoyed it, the more satisfied she became.

We absolutely cannot let this opportunity slip by.

"Uh, Ms. Erina, you're too expensive, we can't afford you." Nobushi Takahashi shook his head with a wry smile.

Erina Nakiri has contracts with many food programs and television stations, so Nobushi Takahashi needs to resolve Erina's contract issues first.

But who can afford to pay this amount?

......

The second update is late.

I'm having writer's block; this chapter took me a long time to write.

There might not be a third update today.

good night.

Chapter 90 A true man lives between heaven and earth; how can he remain subservient to others for long!

Contractual issues cannot be explained in just a few words.

There are many interests involved.

Other TV stations and food programs have signed contracts with Erina Nakiri, including advertising sponsorships. TV Tokyo discussed collaborations with Erina before signing any relevant contracts.

It's to help Erina pay the penalty for breach of contract.

In particular, if the advertising sponsors that TV Tokyo partners with have direct competition with the advertising brands that Erina has signed with, things will be even more difficult to handle.

Nobushi Takahashi knew very well what was going on.

This isn't a matter of whether Erina wants to come on the show or not; even if she did, TV Tokyo wouldn't dare to force her to come.

Who can blame her, Erina Nakiri has the tongue of God?

The contracts signed with those advertising brands are still long-term, large contracts.

Speaking of it.

Erina Nakiri thought for a moment, and it seemed that she had no other choice. Although God Tongue was unique, Japanese partner brands valued integrity and reputation highly.

Breach of contract can easily lead to public scorn and damage to one's reputation.

In Japan, a celebrity's reputation is extremely important; it's not something that can be easily cleaned up and brought back to life, especially for celebrities involved in drug use. Once they are proven guilty, they are relentlessly pursued until their careers are over, and it's almost impossible for anyone to make a comeback.

Erina Nakiri is not an entertainer, but she is a celebrity, a celebrity in the culinary world, and enjoys advertising benefits comparable to those of entertainers.

Making contradictory decisions in contracts would displease many companies that have cooperated with her, and would generate complaints. However, Erina is not yet at the point where she can be so capricious as to do whatever she wants.

We still need to honestly follow the rules.

After all, Erina Nakiri is theoretically not yet an adult, and she has a grandfather as her guardian. If Erina breaches the contract, those companies will definitely contact her grandfather first.

Senzaemon Nakiri is the kind of person who cannot tolerate even the slightest imperfection.

If those partner companies are indeed working properly with Erina, but Erina chooses to breach the contract, things will only become more complicated.

The problem still lies in Erina's current age.

If it were a 25-year-old Erina Nakiri, none of this would be a problem. That would probably be the peak of Erina's career, with plenty of capital. If she didn't want to cooperate, she could just switch to another company. Anyway, there were plenty of people who could come and discuss cooperation.

“I can go by myself,” Su Ze said thoughtfully.

The departure of Erina Nakiri from "Midnight Chef" might not be a good thing.

The Tongue of God is not suited to participate in this kind of food talent show.

Losing in a food talent show would significantly impact Erina Nakiri's market value.

God cannot be defeated.

If you lose, you're no longer a god.

Cooking competitions at school can be considered as friendly exchanges, while formal competitions outside the school, as well as food talent shows, are videos that are broadcast to the public.

God's Tongue: The best path is to become a judge.

And most importantly, Su Ze felt that Erina was quite amazing. If she went to Midnight Chef with him, wouldn't it be a matter of securing second place and competing for the championship?

In the end, in order to preserve the reputation of the Tongue of God, Su Ze had no choice but to give his wife a hand.

As a result, Erina flew higher and higher.

This is not just making the game of finding a wife more difficult for himself. Although Su Ze doesn't care about the honor of being the champion or runner-up, he can give it to his wife if he wants. But a real man should live between heaven and earth and not live a life of melancholy and inferiority to others!

It's good to show off a little every now and then.

If you don't increase your own value...

How could the old man possibly think highly of him?

"Fine," Erina Nakiri gave up on her idea, "then I won't participate."

Ah.

Even if you don't participate in the competition, it's not against you to cheer from the stands as a group of friends or family.

This was a cameo role, so there was no breach of contract.

Besides, Erina Nakiri remembered that the late-night chef talent show had an online popularity ranking.

With a simple tap, they frantically boosted Su Ze's popularity, creating an opportunity for him to rise to fame. This provided a continuous push, and once he won the championship, Su Ze would establish himself firmly in the Japanese culinary world—no, he would simply take off.

"Here's the paper contract. You can take a look. Once you've decided, fill out the contract and hand it to us at the program's studio." Takahashi Nobushi said, handing over a pen.

Takahashi Nobushi never imagined that there really were living bodhisattvas in this world who were willing to work for free.

I didn't even ask about the salary or who the judges were before I came to participate in the show.

"Okay." Su Ze accepted the contract.

"This is my LINE ID. Feel free to contact me anytime if you need anything," Nobushi Takahashi added before heading off to look for his next target, without exchanging more pleasantries.

"Speaking of which, I should probably find an agent too." Su Ze looked at the densely packed contract terms and felt a headache coming on. In the future, Su Ze and Erina's business contracts would all be handled and integrated by a private team.

Now it's time to start all over again from scratch.

“I can lend you my manager,” Erina Nakiri said from the side.

"I'll do it myself now." Su Ze waved his hand and refused. The old man had already noticed that there was something fishy going on between Su Ze and Erina.

Even if the relationship were to become closer, given the old man's current level of attention towards Su Ze, it would still be far from enough to accept Su Ze and Erina's relationship.

Let alone marrying Erina, even if Su Ze wanted to marry into the family, the old man would have to think it over.

This kind of thing shouldn't be rushed.

step by step.

Humph.

He should try his best to gain the old man's approval and make him willing to entrust Erina to him and marry her. However, the situation that Su Ze fears most is that the old man agrees to the marriage, but insists that Su Ze marry into the Nakiri family. In fact, he still has some resistance to this.

Once this happens.

Su Ze had no choice but to take a risky gamble and stop reasoning. He would arrive three years later, bring his family of four out, and live a good few years with Erina.

Only after the old man was satisfied and agreed to the matter, did he take Rina and Arisawa back to the Nakiri family.
