Finally, the first round of points results came out.
Qin Yunshang won first place without any suspense.
Then, Jin Lan lost to Lu Chujiu by a slight margin and finished third.
The first, second and third places have been announced, and the question that follows is how they will play out in the second round.
The live broadcast room gave the screen to the domestic studio, the host came on stage to warm up the audience, and the contestants entered the soundproof room.
"So, the current situation is one superpower and two strong countries," Gao Xiaobai said in the studio.
"Yes." Lu Yu agreed. "According to the rules of the competition, Jin Lan will be the first to choose her opponent, followed by Lu Chujiu."
Gao Xiaobai quickly opened his folding fan and said, "Actually, the possible scenarios are very limited. Jin Lan can either choose Lu Chujiu or Qin Yunshang. Choosing Lu Chujiu means he's fighting for second place, while choosing Qin Yunshang means he's risking everything on his luck."
Lu Yu nodded. "The score difference between Jin Lan and Lu Chujiu isn't that big. If Jin Lan chooses Qin Yunshang and loses, then Lu Chujiu will be firmly in second place. If she wins by chance, it's very likely that she'll be in a better position."
Gao Xiaobai calculated and nodded, "Yes, if Jin Lan chose Qin Yunshang, if I were Lu Chujiu, I would directly choose Jin Lan. As long as I win, no matter whether Jin Lan wins or loses, I will be in the top two, and there is a chance to be first."
"In short, as long as it's between Jin Lan and Lu Chujiu, no matter who wins a round, there's a good chance they'll come in second. If Jin Lan chooses Lu Chujiu, then Lu Chujiu's best option will definitely be to choose Jin Lan, and it will likely turn into a civil war between the two sides. However, they probably won't engage in a civil war, as that would be too undignified."
Cai Xiaokui said from the side: "From this point of view, the situation is very favorable for Lu Chujiu!"
"Yes, the pressure is all on Jin Lan," Gao Xiaobai said. "But Qin Yunshang is also under a lot of pressure because Chen Liang is not there. If she loses a match, she could be in trouble."
Lu Yu smiled and said, "So, even though Yun Shang'er had a big advantage earlier, it's clear that the suspense of the game can still last until the end. Please don't leave the screen, it's going to be even more exciting."
Xu Xiangxiao on the side didn't say anything, she felt a little puzzled.
In her opinion, if Chen Liang had not appeared, the situation would have been no suspense.
From the perspectives of Jin Lan and Lu Chujiu, the safest choice is undoubtedly to have a civil war between each other for the second and third place, and to fight for the second place.
From Jin Lan's perspective, why would she take the risk of competing with Qin Yunshang? The popularity and strength of both sides were not on the same level, and the probability of losing was extremely high.
From Lu Chujiu's perspective, why would she be so desperate to pick on Qin Yunshang? She could just compete with Jin Lan. Two matches would be enough. If she won one, she could keep her second place.
Second place is better than third place, right?
She glanced at Lu Yu with a hint of suspicion, and suddenly realized: Lu Yu said this not because she didn't see the situation clearly, but because it was necessary for the show effect.
What’s so good about competing for second place?
If Qin Yunshang had been confirmed as the first place early on, the audience would have left in large numbers and the result of the competition would have been meaningless.
Lu Yu said into the microphone, "The contestants are still intensively researching countermeasures. I heard Channel 2 is interviewing a 'rare guest'. Next, we will hand over the live broadcast footage to Channel 2."
The small screen in the studio switched along with the live broadcast. As soon as it jumped to channel two, Xu Xiangxiao almost spit out something.
Because the two people appearing on the screen are her old acquaintances.
Su Xiaonuan and Xia You.
At this time, both of them were facing the camera, one of them had an unfathomable smile on her face, and the other one looked embarrassed.
At the live broadcast site, Qin Yunchu, Jiang Xinhai, and Gu Yuqing, who were sitting in the audience, were all confused when they saw the two people in the picture.
"Why is she here too?? Why didn't I receive any message?!"
"When did she come? Does Chen Ya know?"
Qin Yunchu looked at the big screen, a little dazed. Speak of the devil, here he is. They were just talking about her, and Su Xiaonuan came too quickly.
Qin Yunchu whispered, "How come we happened to be interviewing Su Xiaonuan? Is she going to reveal some incredible news?"
Gu Yuqing's expression was not very good: "Given her personality, it is very likely."
On the big screen, the female host held up the microphone and said to the camera:
"Okay, thank you Lu Yu. You can see the audience member next to me. Some of you may have recognized her. Yes, she is the famous director of "Crazy Stone", Su Xiaonuan. Hello, Director Su."
Su Xiaonuan smiled and nodded: "Hello."
The female host held up the microphone and asked, "Director Su, are you here at the competition because you happen to be in Japan?"
Su Xiaonuan was not shy in front of the camera and said seriously, "No, I came to Japan specifically to be there."
Hearing her answer, the female host and the cameraman beside her were surprised. The female host became excited and asked:
"Are you also a fan of our show? Which contestant are you supporting?"
Su Xiaonuan said, "I came here to see Chen Liang."
The female host was a little surprised. She was expecting the answer to be Qin Yunshang or some idol, and she had already prepared the following questions in her mind.
Unexpectedly, Su Xiaonuan mentioned Chen Liang.
This disrupted the rhythm of her interview.
The female host subconsciously said, "Uh... Chen Liang? It seems that you like the songs he wrote very much, right?"
Su Xiaonuan shook her head and said, "I listened to the songs he wrote recently, and I feel they are not as good as the ones he wrote for Jiang Xinhai and Xu Xiangxiao before."
Female host: “Ah?”
