Gao Sujian, a culinary master renowned as the "King of Small Sea Cucumbers", is a shining "torchbearer" in the contemporary wave of inheritance. Devoting his life's passion to the "Inheriting the Flame" program, he continues to write a touching chapter in the story of Chinese cuisine.</p><p class="ql-block"> </p><p class="ql-block">Origins: Learning from a Master, Laying a Solid Foundation</p><p class="ql-block"> </p><p class="ql-block">In 1980, Gao Sujian entered the culinary major at the former Yantai Senior Technical School in Shandong Province (now Yantai Technician College). By systematically studying culinary theories and skills, he opened the door to the world of gourmet food. Fate brought him together with Wang Yijun, a master of Shandong cuisine. At the starting point of his culinary journey, he set the direction of inheritance and innovation. From an inexperienced apprentice to becoming an indoor disciple of Mr. Wang Yijun, over more than twenty years, he has been immersed in the unreserved guidance of his mentor. Not only did he master the essence of Shanghai - style Shandong cuisine and state banquet dishes, but he also acquired a culinary philosophy of inclusiveness. Calligraphy and poetry nurtured his humanistic heritage, and the integration of Chinese and Western styles broadened his taste boundaries, laying a solid foundation of both "skills" and "art" for his inheritance journey.</p><p class="ql-block"> </p><p class="ql-block">Deep Cultivation: Breaking Through in Skills, Innovating for Inheritance</p><p class="ql-block"> </p><p class="ql-block">The "thinnest hand - pulled live sea cucumber" broke the Great World Guinness Record four times. The extreme precision, from 0.003 mm to 0.0018 mm, is a vivid interpretation of the word "ingenuity". The unique "Imperial Chef Sea Cucumber" series of dishes, and the sea cucumber membrane calligraphy and painting winning a national invention patent, show how he "revitalizes" the vitality of traditional ingredients through "innovation": making sea cucumbers not just delicacies on the plate, but also artistic carriers of cultural symbols, pushing the inheritance of gourmet food and skills to a new height. In 1996, at the World Chinese Cuisine Competition, his innovative national soup "Braised Cuttlefish Roe" won a gold medal. This was not only a highlight of his personal skills but also a microcosm of the inclusiveness and progressiveness of Chinese cuisine. Inheritance is not about conservatism, but about using innovation as wings to let ancient delicacies soar onto the tables of the times.</p><p class="ql-block"> </p><p class="ql-block">Passing the Torch: Educating Disciples, Sustaining the Flame</p><p class="ql-block"> </p><p class="ql-block">As the Chief Inheritance Executive and Torchbearer of the "Inheriting the Flame" program, Gao Sujian deeply understands that "the key to inheritance lies in educating people". With more than 300 proud disciples spread across the industry, he transforms the skills and spirit learned from his mentor into a gentle rain that nourishes silently. When teaching cooking techniques, he emphasizes "respecting the original flavor of ingredients and safeguarding the cultural roots"; when instructing innovative ideas, he adheres to "never straying from the essence, which is the soul of China". He takes his disciples to visit the innovative dishes of "Gao's Cuisine Gate", allowing the "new generation of famous chefs" to understand the warmth of inheritance and the power of innovation in the exchange and collision, so that the flame of Chinese cuisine will burn brightly in the hands of generations of young people.</p>
