Chapter 456 Parallel Time and Space (XI)
Before she could figure it out, the host came on stage with a script in hand, officially starting the finals.
During the rehearsal yesterday afternoon, it was decided by drawing lots that they would be the second round performers.
There are 5 long tables on the stage, with a buzzer on each table.
The lights suddenly came on, and the first five teams to go on stage had number plates on their chests, and they sat down in order with their heads held high and their chests puffed out.
Xie Yi and Lin Xiaotong in the audience also put their number plates on their right chests, sat up straight and began to watch the game.
In the middle of the aisle, the cameraman fiddled with his large camera and started recording.
She tilted her head to take a look and saw that it was indeed a live broadcast.
The leader is really good at having fun.
Originally, everyone treated this as a simple competition. During the rehearsal yesterday, everyone was joking with each other and the atmosphere was harmonious.
Now that this posture has emerged, even the old hands who were originally folding their arms and shaking their legs to watch the show began to sit up straight.
Each team took turns testing the sensitivity of the buzzer, and answer pages began to appear on both sides of the screen.
Each group has two members, one of whom is responsible for pressing the buzzer.
If you grab the spot in advance, you will lose points, and if you don’t grab the spot, you won’t be able to answer the questions.
The difference in scores became apparent, and the people on the stage became noticeably nervous.
The host held the microphone and looked sideways at the big screen.
"Come, let's look at the first question."
At the beginning, he slowed down his pace and read the questions again.
There are several staff members sitting on the left side of the first row, responsible for controlling the countdown.
After the number becomes 0, you can press the buzzer when you hear the bell.
The light on the buzzer turns green to indicate a successful answer, and red to indicate a foul.
The initial score for each group is 100 points. 10 points will be deducted for answering questions illegally or incorrectly; 10 points will be added for answering questions correctly; no points will be awarded for not answering questions quickly.
Lin Xiaotong noticed that the people responsible for pressing the clickers generally lowered their heads, held their breath, placed their hands above the clickers in advance, and listened attentively to the instructions with their ears perked up.
Success or failure depends on this one move.
The venue suddenly became quiet.
"drop--"
"Foul on Platform 5."
The audience below burst into uncontrollable laughter.
The contestant at station 5 who was using the quick-answer machine lowered his head and held his forehead, looking very embarrassed.
He had a great start as soon as he came on stage.
His teammates tried hard to hold back their laughter as they watched the timer on the stage turn to 90.
He spoke out to comfort his teammates: "It's okay, this is only the first question."
"Okay, 10 points will be deducted from station 5. Let's move on to the next question. Please be prepared, each group."
"Channel 3 got it! Please shout out your answers.
Correct, we give Channel 3 a 10.”
As the green light came on, the host's voice became more excited and the atmosphere became more lively.
Xie Yi was feeling a little sleepy and dozing off on the side, but was woken up by the noise.
Lin Xiaotong took out a mint candy from her pocket and handed it to him.
The live broadcast is facing the stage, and no one will know if you make some small movements in the audience.
Xie Yi lowered his head, put the food in his mouth, put his hands in his pockets, and started watching the game with his eyelids propped up.
There were relatively few people who violated the rules in the first round, but there were also some people who got questions but didn't know the answers, and they pounded the table with frustration on their faces.
The final winner was Channel 3, which scored a total of 230 points.
They left the stage one by one and sat back in the audience, looking relaxed, ready to be spectators.
Xie Yi stood up: "Let's go, it's finally our turn."
Lin Xiaotong gently smoothed the number plate on her chest with her hand. They were station number 2.
The five teams in the second round sat at the answering table.
During the rehearsal yesterday, they tried the buzzer one by one. After all, Xie Yi's winning rate would be higher.
So he was responsible for grabbing and she was responsible for answering questions. The division of labor was clear, and the main focus was on cooperation.
To this end, she memorized the test paper over and over again, even the short-answer questions.
Xie Yi is full of confidence: "As long as we can grab it, we will win."
Lin Xiaotong was afraid of affecting his performance, so she moved a little further away to avoid touching his wrist.
"Come on, come on."
"drop--"
"Station 2 committed a foul, 10 points deducted."
Xie Yi looked down at the answering machine with a flashing red light and fell into deep thought.
Xie Yi hung his head and slapped his hands in regret.
Tell him to be quick!
Lin Xiaotong comforted her from the side: "It's okay, this is just the first time, there will be many opportunities later."
Committing a foul right at the start has a huge impact on your mentality.
Xie Yi nodded, he felt that he was fine again.
A true warrior dares to face the first failure.
So in the following games, he faced his own failure again and again.
The buzzer in his hand flashed from time to time, and his eyes were full of red.
You know what, it's really festive.
Lin Xiaotong was sitting next to her and didn't care anymore.
The two people completely ignored the camera and all their initial points were deducted.
It seemed like they were there to mess things up, as they kept answering questions in violation of the rules, and until the second round, the scores of each group were not very high.
After finally answering a question, before Xie Yi could even start shaking, he would be penalized for a foul in the next round.
It’s better not to fight for it than to go through so much trouble.
In addition to them, Channel 1 next door also always likes to press the buzzer in advance.
Switch from left hand to right hand, from one hand to two hands.
He was so angry that he laughed at his own hand, and looked confused.
"Wasn't everything going well during rehearsal yesterday?
Could it be that all my luck ran out yesterday?"
Finally, it was Lin Xiaotong's turn to try. Fortunately, she managed to get the ball two or three times, so at least she could save face.
At the end of the game, Channel 1 and Channel 2 were ranked last and second to last respectively.
The host laughed so hard that he stumbled over his words several times, and the laughter in the venue was getting louder and louder.
It doesn't feel like a competition, but more like an exhibition match.
The four conspicuous people lowered their heads and returned to their seats with their tails between their legs.
After Xie Yi and Lin Xiaotong sat down, they unscrewed the mineral water bottle and took a few sips.
"Fortunately, there is no replay of this live broadcast."
Lin Xiaotong took out another cheese biscuit from her pocket and gave one piece to Xie Yi.
It’s almost time for dinner, let’s eat something to fill our stomach.
"It's okay. I never thought I could make it to the finals in the first place."
Xie Yi lowered his head, the red color on the tips of his ears had not yet faded.
After taking a bite of a biscuit, my mood gradually improved.
The leader on the stage started talking about the same things again, and he was still looking down in deep thought, as if he was thinking about some important matter in his life.
She had just replied to Ganyu's message when she turned around and saw his expression, and was stunned.
"What's wrong? What are you thinking about?"
Xie Yi said after a while: "I'm thinking about which restaurant to go to for lunch?"
"I know there's a restaurant at the back door of No. 1 Middle School that's also delicious. Want to go?"
"good."
As soon as we finished discussing the issue of eating, everyone around us stood up with their bags.
They were so scared that they immediately followed suit and started clapping.
In the end, each of the ten teams that made it to the finals received a big sign.
Lin Xiaotong looked at the golden sign that read "Excellence Award." At least she didn't go back empty-handed.
"Go back and hang it on the wall of your office."
Xie Yi came out holding a sign: "If he takes first place, the minister will definitely hang a banner on his forehead."
"Then we are considerate and directly cut off his path."
"That's right."
When I went out, I found that it was raining outside. The car was parked some distance away and I didn't have an umbrella in my pocket.
The two looked at each other, their eyes simultaneously looking at the sign in his armpit.
Hiss~This is a good thing.
They gathered together, with the four corners of the sign on their heads, and rushed into the rain without hesitation, splashing water everywhere.
