The two forced themselves to calm down and stammered to introduce their works. Several judges in the judging panel frowned, said nothing, and asked the two to leave the stage.
Tang Ling and Zhang Xia came down with pale faces. In this kind of competition, the most frightening thing is not that the judges criticize your work, but that they do not comment at all. Criticizing your work means that your work still has some merits and can make people think.
The most terrifying thing is their performance. Everyone had a dull expression and said nothing, which meant that their work didn't cause any waves among the judges.
The two knew that there was no hope, so they sat back in their seats with sullen faces and said nothing.
Li Xiaoxiao was right behind them. Seeing this, she laughed and said, "I told you, don't judge a person by his appearance."
She looked at Su Qingyun with surprise. As expected, she was not an ordinary country girl.
Tang Ling turned around and glared at her fiercely, "It's not your turn yet, why are you so proud? I want to see how much better you are than us."
Li Xiaoxiao shrugged and didn't continue to argue. She really didn't understand why participating in a competition could cause such hostility towards others. Isn't everyone speaking based on their strength? Only good works can be regarded as real ability.
They looked down on Su Qingyun because of the regional gap, but they didn't think they were as good as him. Li Xiaoxiao curled her lips. Although she felt ashamed that her team's work was not as good as Su Qingyun and the others, she only felt admiration in her heart.
Li Xiaoxiao is a generous person, but precisely because of this, she can openly admit that she is not as good as others, instead of elevating herself by belittling others.
The teammate next to her poked her and asked, "Do you know the group that was with the tape recorder?"
"That girl is in the same dormitory with me." Li Xiaoxiao said.
"Oh." The teammates suddenly realized, "They are so good. The group behind them is not so good. What are they talking about? I don't know how they made it to the semi-finals. The gap between each team is too big."
The teammates' voices were not low. Li Xiaoxiao watched Tang Ling and Zhang Xia's profiles becoming uglier and uglier, and couldn't help but smile.
"It's our turn soon, let's get ready." She said, trying hard to suppress her smile.
"good."
"Tsk, this group obviously has no chance." After Su Qingyun and Ji Yue finished their task successfully, Teacher Qin stood up straight. His legs stopped shaking, his heart stopped beating wildly, and he was able to calmly comment on the performance of other groups.
"I guess I was scared by you guys." Teacher Qin stroked his chin and thought for a moment. "It must be very stressful to go on stage after you two. I'm so nervous, tsk..."
Ji Yue's eyes were indifferent and expressionless. He didn't care about anyone other than his own group.
As for Su Qingyun, she would not gloat over other people's misfortune. Schadenfreude is based on comparison. After all, she had never taken those two people seriously, so there was no comparison.
There were more than ten groups of contestants following, and there were also some eye-catching works, such as the group of Chen Mu and An Huai. The work they submitted was a small airplane they made themselves. It did not require electricity and was completely driven by the aircraft's self-propulsion system to fly. Although it was not long and still had various problems, it was already a very good work.
Su Qingyun sat up straighter, interest showing in his eyes. This was quite interesting.
She recalled the booming drone industry in later generations. Drones can be found in everything from toys to military applications, and are used in all aspects of life and production. This industry is very promising.
But now it is still too far away from the high-tech drones in her mind. Now she can only make such a crude-looking work, and can only vaguely glimpse some prototypes and shadows.
However, when it comes to inventing and creating things, the most worrying thing is not to do it well, but to not dare to do it. The most terrifying thing is not daring to try. All success is accumulated through repeated failures, and no one is an exception. China still has a long way to go.
On the stage, after Chen Mu and An Huai introduced their works, they looked at the judges with anticipation, their eyes shining.
The chief judge looked at the two with a pleasant expression, then pondered for a moment before saying, "In my opinion, the technological level of your work is not very high, and the execution is not very good either."
Upon hearing this, Chen Mu and An Huai's faces instantly fell.
"But," the head judge changed the subject, "the biggest concern for you two is that you're very creative and bold in thinking and acting. This already gives you an advantage over many others. You're still young. Have you thought about what you want to do in the future?"
"I want to design a real plane that can fly into the sky, perform many tasks, and defend the motherland!" Chen Mu said loudly.
An Huai: "Me too. I hope that in the future I can design a most advanced fighter jet that belongs to us Chinese people."
"Good!" The head judge clapped his hands and laughed, "You have great ambition!"
"Young people should have this kind of ambition!" He said with a kind expression, clearly admiring this about the two of them. "I look forward to the day when your dreams come true."
The two were encouraged by their dreams and walked off the stage excitedly. No matter what the results were today, they were already satisfied.
"Are you interested?" Ji Yue turned his head and asked Su Qingyun with interest.
Su Qingyun thought for a moment and said, "A little bit, but it's too early."
"Hmm?" Ji Yue didn't understand what she meant. Wasn't she the type who would do whatever she wanted to do immediately? What happened this time?
Su Qingyun just smiled without saying anything. Scientific research requires exploration and the courage to forge ahead, but it also requires down-to-earth stability so that one can take one step at a time and go further.
