As expected of a venue that can accommodate one to two thousand spectators, the stage is also large enough to accommodate 150 contestants.
The two hosts knew how to have fun. They called everyone up to make an appearance, and not only did they simply make an appearance, they also asked each team to make a competition declaration.
Wang Zhaozhao and the others directly handed this to the captain.
Song Jiangli also saved trouble and directly used the line "Don't wait until your hair turns white and you are filled with regret."
In any case, as soon as she finished speaking, Wang Zhaozhao and the others clapped their hands vigorously in cooperation, and Xu Jiaying's cheers could also be heard from the audience.
Thirty teams take turns, and the host keeps the first batch of contestants, and the others can leave the stage.
Returning to his seat, Wang Zhaozhao glanced at the system time. It was two minutes to ten.
The process was well designed and the host managed the time very well.
The staff was also very helpful. In the time it took for them to go back to their seats after leaving the stage, they brought up thirty sets of tables and chairs, and placed a clipboard for answering questions and a large pen on them.
Moreover, the arrangement of tables and chairs has been specially designed, and each seat is staggered. The audience below the stage can see how the contestants answer the questions, which enhances the viewing experience and greatly eliminates the possibility of cheating.
The contestants took their seats according to their numbers.
"Okay, everyone, please pay attention now."
"The host practiced the questions at a normal speaking speed. There were 10 questions in total. He read them all at once, repeated them once, and counted down 10. That was the end of the questioning process."
“A staff member will collect the answer sheet and show it directly on the stage. The answers will be announced on the spot for verification and scoring.”
The host announced the rules of the competition, and there was an uproar in the audience.
But this did not affect their progress at all, and the time came exactly to ten o'clock.
"Please listen to the question, fill in the blanks. Ou Qing suddenly flew away. Please continue with the next sentence."
"High Wind Hanyang Ferry, what's the first day?"
“…”
There are two hosts, each reading a question in turn, at a normal speaking speed, with no noticeable pauses between questions.
The contestants on the stage were writing furiously.
The people in the audience were not idle either, at least the contestants were not idle. They were thinking about the answers in their minds, and some even answered in a low voice or compared answers together.
There are 10 questions. The host reads them once and then starts over again.
Then came the countdown, "Ten, nine... three, two, one. OK! Stop answering questions today."
As the host finished speaking, the staff came on stage and collected the answer boards.
He just lifted it up and walked to the center of the stage without any hesitation.
The answer will be announced directly and the contestants' answers will be checked. If one word is wrong, the answer will be wrong.
There is no such thing as loose or tight review.
"The first batch of questions have ended. Please leave the stage."
"Please invite the second group of contestants to come on stage."
…
The schedule was very tight, and it was only 11:20 when all five batches were finished.
There is a five-minute break at halftime to calculate the total score.
While the scorer was busy, Wang Zhaozhao found that many people in the audience were also very attentive and were counting with pen and paper.
Some of it is purely personal preference, but there are also people from the school, such as Principal Chen, who asked Zhou Donglai to take notes, and Zhou Donglai is now calculating the results.
"The Young White-haired Team gets full marks..." The first one to be counted must be our own team, "In addition, there are seven pairs that also got full marks..."
After listening to this, Principal Chen just nodded slightly.
Vice Principal Chu smiled and said, "This is only the first round, it can only be considered a warm-up."
Zhou Donglai smiled and thought, this warm-up will directly eliminate nine groups, which means forty-five people.
After 5 minutes, the host got the results.
Announce the results directly, and then announce the list of eliminated teams.
"It's a bit cruel." Xu Yanni said, patting her chest.
"Indeed, it took so long to prepare and so far to run..." Chen Pei shook his head.
But, this is a competition.
When you come to a competition, you can't just think about winning.
As long as the game is fair and just, if they lose, they lose and must accept the result.
The host on the stage has announced that the morning competition is over. The next round, 21 to 15 competition, will start on time at 2 pm.
"Let's go, let's go eat." Wang Zhaozhao has always been positive when it comes to eating.
"Aren't we going to say hello to Jiaying and the others?" Xu Yanni reminded her.
"Uh..." I forgot.
Wang Zhaozhao smiled and silently retracted his outstretched foot.
However, they just said hello briefly because Director Guan came to pick them up.
It turned out that the organizer arranged a separate canteen for the organizing committee and contestants.
Buffet, with Chinese and Western food to choose from, and fruit available.
Everyone is naturally happy if they can eat well... except those who are eliminated.
They also ate together, but the atmosphere on their side was subdued.
"You can go back to the guesthouse to take a nap. If you don't want to go back to the guesthouse, you can rest in this cafeteria." Director Guan told them after they finished their meal.
Wang Zhaozhao decisively chose to rest in the cafeteria. It was noon, and it was so hot walking back and forth under the scorching sun.
After delivering the meal tray and going to the bathroom, Wang Zhaozhao came back and found a corner to sit down. He took out a book from his schoolbag.
So are Xu Yanni and Chen Pei.
"No! You guys have prepared too much, haven't you?" Zhou Zhizhi widened her eyes.
"Don't get excited." Song Jiangli gently pulled her. "As far as I know, our Ban Zhao boss usually reads novels when she has free time."
"What?" Zhou Zhizhi's already wide eyes widened even wider.
Reading novels? Are you kidding me?
She expressed disbelief...
Well.
She stretched her neck and squeezed over to take a look, and was dumbfounded.
When Wang Zhaozhao saw her coming over, he picked up the book in his hand without thinking and showed her the cover.
Zhou Zhizhi: “……!”
You have a really big heart.
Wang Zhaozhao saw that she looked like she had seen a ghost, and thought that since they were now a team, he should explain it briefly to avoid causing unnecessary misunderstandings.
"There's no point in cramming. Besides, although the morning competition wasn't difficult, the atmosphere was quite tense. Now it's time for a break, so I might as well relax... Well, I'll read a novel for a while to change my mind."
Hearing this, Zhou Zhizhi smiled.
"You make a lot of sense."
But if I were to read a novel right now...I definitely wouldn't be able to get into it.
She bet a hundred dollars that the team next to her who also chose to take a lunch break in the cafeteria must have thought that Wang Zhaozhao and the others were racing against time and making as many preparations as possible.
well.
With a sigh in her heart, Zhou Zhizhi's gaze fell on Xu Yanni and Chen Pei again.
After all, they had been dealing with each other for a whole morning, and she could see that Xu Yanni and Wang Zhaozhao had a very good relationship. Chen Pei liked them very much because he had participated in a month of special training with them.
"What book are you reading?" Zhou Zhizhi asked Xu Yanni and Chen Peidao for some unknown reason.
They both lifted the book at the same time, revealing the cover.
“……!”
Zhou Zhizhi's mouth twitched and said, "Sorry to bother you."
