Last month, the chef published his personal memoir "Kim Jong Il's Chef" under the pseudonym of Kenji Fujimoto, which revealed many unknown aspects of Kim Jong Il. Both Japanese and Korean newspapers reported it on the front page.
In the early 1980s, Fujimoto was recruited by Kim Jong Il and went to North Korea. In 1988, Fujimoto became the exclusive sushi chef of Kim Jong Il. Fujimoto revealed the news in the book, saying that once Kim Jong Il suddenly ordered a dancer to take off her clothes at a banquet held in a "country town". These women are members of the so-called "choir" and often appear at Kim Jong Il's banquets. Japanese marches are often played at these banquets.
In an exclusive interview with Japan's Weekly Post, Fujimoto described the scene of this "naked party" in detail. He said that the women who were ordered to undress hesitated, but they couldn't resist, so "they all undressed and danced, and then Kim Jong Il ordered his men, including me, to dance with them."
Kim Jong Il said to his men, "You can dance with them, but if you touch them, you will be arrested as thieves. 」
According to Fujimoto's description, Kim Jong Il is a smart but short-tempered man. When people are hungry and cold, he is still addicted to imported food and wine. In an exclusive interview, Fujimoto said that Kim Jong Il's feast usually begins at midnight and lasts until dawn. "As far as I know, the longest feast lasted for four days. Before Kim Jong Il goes to bed, the invited officials are not allowed to sleep, which is really a great torture for them. "
Fujimoto was originally Kim Jong Il's exclusive chef, but soon Kim Jong Il asked him to accompany him to some formal and informal occasions, including water skiing and hunting. Fujimoto's memoirs also confirmed an intelligence held by the West that Kim Jong Il was seriously injured while riding a horse in 1992. Fujimoto said that Kim Jong Il didn't want to be a "medicine jar", so he refused to take any painkillers.
This book describes Kim Jong Il as a confident but almost arrogant person. He can use the computer to manage state affairs, and sometimes he suddenly loses his temper with his subordinates. Once, he suddenly smashed a stainless steel napkin box in front of Zhang Chengtai, an important member of the Labor Party.
According to this book, Kim Jong Il has a soft spot for mellow wine and delicious food. He eats shark fin soup three or four times a week, likes the most exotic sushi and imports the most advanced ingredients from all over Europe and Asia. His cellar contains all kinds of top French wines, Japanese sake and other fine wines, such as John Walking and Hennessy XO.
Being too close to Kim Jong Il is dangerous. Although Fujimoto enjoyed various privileges of his cronies, Fujimoto was detained for two years after returning to Japan in 1996, which aroused Kim Jong Il's suspicion. When he returned to North Korea, Kim Jong Il said, "I intend to order my men in Japan to kill you. 」
In April of 200 1 year, Fujimoto returned to Japan again. He told Kim Jong Il that he needed to go back to China to buy sea urchins, but he never went back to North Korea after that.
Fujimoto also pointed out in the book that Kim Jong Il has long had nuclear ambitions. He told Fujimoto: "Without nuclear weapons, we would be attacked. The book also talks about Kim Jong Il's succession. The western world thinks that Kim Jong Il is actively cultivating his second son, Jin Zhengzhe, as his successor, and Jin Zhengzhe is said to have the support of the North Korean military. However, Fujimoto pointed out that Kim Jong Il prefers to be succeeded by his third son, Kim Jong-un.
Fujimoto often goes to many countries to replenish supplies for Kim Jong Il, such as looking for cantaloupe and grapes in Uighurs, tropical fruits such as durian, mango and papaya in Malaysia and Thailand, draft beer in Czech Republic, pork in Denmark, caviar in Iran and Uzbekistan, fish in Japan and longan in Macau …
North Korea's Kim Jong Il loves food. This time, he cooked roast duck in Beijing, which caused an international sensation. In the past, he fell in love with a Japanese chef, Kenji Fujimoto (he used an alias to avoid revenge) and served Kim Jong Il for 13 years. Fujimoto recently wrote a book called Chef Kim Jong Il (published by Fusang Society) to observe the true face of North Korea's supreme power and the mystery, luxury and luxury of Kim Jong Il and his family.
Travel long distances and fly three places just to buy marijuana.
From 1982 to 1983, Fujimoto was invited to North Korea as a chef. At that time, Kim Jong Il often asked him to cook sushi every ten days. Later, when the contract expired, he returned to Japan, but in 1987, Kim Jong Il sent someone to Japan to look for him and offered him about 600,000 yen twice his original salary to go to North Korea. As soon as Kim Jong Il saw him, he asked him, "Did you bring anything special from Japan?"
During his stay in North Korea, Fujimoto often returned to Japan to replenish his products at the request of Kim Jong Il. Sometimes, at dinner, Kim Jong Il suddenly said, "Fujimoto, Japan has a great blessing to spread wormwood. I will buy it for you tomorrow." Fujimoto immediately flew from Pyongyang to Beijing, and called Jin Erlang Dafu in Mitsukoshi, Ginza, Tokyo at the Beijing airport to make an appointment for 100 of such wormwood cakes. However, Kim Jong Il said with great satisfaction, "Japan's Dafu is really delicious. Why can't our chef make it?"
Kim Jong Il likes rich Chinese food, especially shark's fin. He can eat shark fin for three nights in a row. Kim Jong Il is very picky about eating rice. Before cooking, the chef and waiter should check one by one, and every grain of rice must be complete in shape and uniform in size before he can eat it. He is also sensitive to taste. Once he said to Fujimoto, "Today's sushi tastes a little different." Fujimoto also said he wouldn't, but when he later confirmed the amount of seasoning, he found that the amount of sugar was less than usual, but only Kim Jong Il found this.
They are considered a thorn in the side of the locals, what do you think?
