"Of course it's not excessive."
"First place belongs to them!"
The audience's response resounded throughout the entire venue.
They spontaneously erupted in thunderous applause.
Lin Fan's teammates were filled with pride.
Meanwhile, in the VIP section, Feng Minghui looked at Wu Hanlin on the podium.
His expression was gloomy, almost as if he could be squeezed for water.
At this moment, Chaohui was covered in cold sweat and could hardly sit still.
Why are you so nervous?
Feng Minghui asked calmly.
"It's my fault for not handling it well..."
Zhaohui quickly lowered his head, nervously rubbing his fingers.
"It's not your fault."
Feng Minghui waved his hand gently, "To be honest, I'm starting to admire Lin Fan now."
It's impressive that they managed to turn the tide under these circumstances.
"He is indeed very strong!"
Only then did Zhaohui dare to raise his head and echo a comment.
"Clean your own ass first."
Feng Minghui glanced at him indifferently.
"Yes, I know what to do."
Zhaohui immediately understood and quietly retreated to the side.
Feng Minghui looked up again at the situation on the podium.
“Look… Zhang Qianfeng, the team leader from Shanghai, seems very excited.”
"It's a pity there's no microphone, so we can't hear what they're saying."
"The other team leaders also went over to see what was going on."
Keen-eyed viewers noticed that the organizing committee area was quite lively.
"Let's go take a look."
Xia Yuliang waved to Lin Fan, "So they won't gossip behind my back."
"Um."
Lin Fan followed them away.
"Let's not get involved and let them handle it."
Zhang Lanyu was about to go too, but Xu Qiuyue forcibly stopped her.
Lin Fan and his companion arrived at the organizing committee quickly.
"Chairman Wu, your organizing committee's problems shouldn't be borne by our Shanghai team, right?"
An elderly man with gray hair was angrily arguing loudly with the organizing committee.
"This is Zhang Qianfeng, the team leader from Shanghai."
Xia Yuliang introduced him to Lin Fan, saying, "He's famously protective of his own, but as a person..."
"I can tell."
Lin Fan smiled and spoke first.
"Look at Liang Shaoqing's suturing skills. He successfully sutured the mouse's skin and flesh together in an orderly manner without any problems."
"But your Shanghai team is far inferior."
Wu Hanlin pointed to the video playing on a loop and said, "The main reason you lost wasn't the equipment."
Moreover, the malfunctioning equipment is not in your possession.
"Chairman Wu is right. The Jiangsu Province team didn't make a fuss about it."
"Since you've chosen them, you have to accept the consequences."
Sun Boran added, "We should reflect on why we lost and study the video carefully."
"Aren't you worried about the negative impact if word gets out that you eliminated the team that ranked second in the score?"
Zhang Qianfeng didn't even glance at it, but said coldly.
"Sorry, these are the rules."
"It was your Shanghai team that chose the Jiangsu Province team as your opponent."
"The entire process was open and transparent, and no one had the opportunity to manipulate it."
"You were simply outmatched; you lost decisively."
Wu Hanlin said calmly, "There are winners and losers in competitions; if you're willing to bet, you have to accept the consequences!"
The tone clearly said, "You chose him yourself, idol!"
"Inferior skills?"
Song Zhiqiang couldn't help but step forward, "Our score is only 0.5 points lower than theirs."
The organizing committee gave them extra points for their equipment malfunctions.
For this reason alone, we shouldn't have to bear the consequences; it's unfair to us!
"You may leave now."
"Our organizing committee will discuss this matter and give you an answer in a bit."
Wu Hanlin waved his hand patiently.
"I hope you will consider this carefully, otherwise I will take this to the General Association."
"Even if it means fighting to the death, we must get justice for our Shanghai team."
Zhang Qianfeng coldly uttered a sentence and turned to leave.
Song Zhiqiang snorted coldly and hurriedly followed.
The crowd gradually dispersed.
Wu Hanlin was about to discuss things with several members of the organizing committee when he saw Xia Yuliang and Lin Fan there as well.
"Dean Xia, Lin Fan, please come here for a moment."
He quickly waved to the two of them.
Xia Yuliang and Lin Fan exchanged a glance and walked over.
"Chairman Wu, is there something you need?"
Xia Yuliang spoke first.
"Dean Xia, I'm truly sorry for causing such a huge trouble to your Jiangsu Province team."
Wu Hanlin said apologetically.
"Chairman Wu, even the best-laid plans can have oversights; no one could have predicted such an accident."
"Fortunately, our team members have good mental fortitude and solid skills, so there were no major problems."
Xia Yuliang's words were perfectly watertight.
This expressed understanding while subtly praising his own team.
"As you can see, the Shanghai team is very unwilling to accept this."
"This matter will probably not end so easily."
Wu Hanlin's face was clouded with worry.
"These are the organizing committee's rules!"
"When our Jiangsu Province team was selected, everyone thought we would lose."
"Now that we've turned the tide and won, what else do they have to complain about?"
"If we're talking about feeling wronged... our team members felt even more wronged. We were using faulty equipment and were almost wrongly accused."
“We didn’t even bother with it, but they jumped up first.”
Xia Yuliang was slightly dissatisfied, "We treat patients with our own hands, and Zhang Lanyu is injured."
