Chapter 127 Variety Show 04
—So there's an extra round?
—This little kid is so cute and cocky, hahaha! He's clearly still a child but he's trying so hard to act like an adult.
—She's a pretty girl! In a competition between a girl and a child, who should we support?
—Of course, I support Jiang Jiang! Our Jiang Jiang has read so many books in her dorm! She'll definitely have no problem with these encyclopedic Q&A questions.
—Are the people upstairs really friends and family or just pretending to be trolls?
When Tang Li saw that some people in the live chat didn't believe her, she quickly continued to send messages of encouragement to her best friend.
—They're family and friends! Trust me, our Jiang Jiang is beautiful and capable, she definitely won't lose!
—She's definitely beautiful. Her face is so striking that she wouldn't lose out to anyone in the entertainment industry. If she were to join the industry, she would definitely become a huge star!
—While others are attending prestigious universities and participating in TV shows at twenty, I was watching variety shows and laughing like an idiot in front of my computer at twenty.
—Who do you think will win this time, USTC or Imperial University?
—Let's take a gamble on Beijing University; after all, they're older and have more experience than the younger ones.
It's hard not to support the person upstairs.
Unconscious room (4)
Tang Li: Calling Zhao Zhao! Calling Xiang Yue!
Tang Li: Surely there are still people who haven't gotten up yet to watch Jiang Jiang on the show?
Zhao Ying: How could that be? I've already seen the [photos] [photos]
Tang Li: My Jiang Jiang is truly beautiful from every angle! (I'm captivated for a second)
Li Xiangyue: Have you guys been watching? I saw that Jiang Jiang is about to have a one-on-one match with Tao Qi.
Tang Li: I not only watched, I also sent comments in the live stream.
Zhao Ying: 6
Tang Li: Let the screen be flooded with comments! Give Jiang Jiang this respect!
Zhao Ying: What kind of noodles? Pork chop noodles?
Tang Li: (Disdainful)
Li Xiangyue: (Smirking)

"After a unanimous decision by our production team, the tiebreaker will be conducted in a format where the two sides take turns answering questions until one side makes a mistake or all questions have been answered, at which point the competition will end." A member of the production team went on stage to announce the decision before leaving the stage.
Shi Lan invited the other contestants back to their seats, leaving only Jiang Lai and Tao Qi on stage.
Before leaving the stage, Zhou Yunyun quietly squeezed Jiang Lai's hand, "Junior, don't be nervous, it's okay if you lose."
Jiang Lai gave her a reassuring look.
Lin Yi and Chen Shuo also gave Jiang Lai silent encouragement.
The other players returned to their positions and began discussing: "Who do you think will win?"
"It's hard to say. If I hadn't seen Tao Qi's previous performance, I would have chosen Jiang Lai, but Tao Qi has been very consistent in these two matches, and I feel that he is very strong."
"What about Jiang Lai?" "I didn't notice her performance." "Are you sure?" "Okay, I admit I paid attention to her because of her appearance, but it seems she didn't fully showcase her abilities, did she?"
"Looking at her face, I can't bear to let her lose points. I hope Tao Qi won't be like me." "How old is Tao Qi? He doesn't know anything about chivalry. As for Jiang Lai, I wonder if she'll be more considerate of the younger one."
Will Jiang Lai give way to the children? No.
Would Tao Qi go easy on her just because the other player was a pretty woman? No.
After the host announced that the question bank had been updated and that the contestants could begin answering, the discussions among the contestants below the stage ceased, replaced by complete silence.
The only voices in the entire studio were Jiang Lai and Tao Qi, who took turns answering questions.
“Prague.” The woman’s voice was sweet and crisp.
"2006." The young boy's voice sounded very serious.
"mistake."
"mistake."
"Gold leaf craftsmanship".
“Itap”.
—At least let us finish reading the question, okay?
Did these two steal the questions and memorize the answers?
—I'm impressed. I thought graduating from high school was the peak of everyone's knowledge, but I didn't expect these two to be so amazing.
— I often find the answer before I've even finished reading the question or searched for it.
Shi Lan was originally standing on the stage with Tao Qi and Jiang Lai, but because the two of them were so engrossed in answering the questions, Shi Lan felt that it was pointless for her to stay or leave, so she simply stepped off the stage and left the space to the two of them.
The contestants and the viewers in the live broadcast room could only see Tao Qi and Jiang Lai standing in the center of the stage, looking at the big screen at the same time, and they immediately gave their answers almost the second after the question appeared.
The speed at which the questions are displayed on the large screen is also getting faster and faster; the correct answer is displayed almost as soon as the question appears.
Zhou Yunyun looked at the big screen, her mouth agape: "I suspect the two people on it are robots, the kind that are connected to the internet."
Lin Yi and Chen Shuo exchanged a glance: "We think so too."
"I didn't expect Jiang Xuemei to be so amazing. It seems we limited her performance." Chen Shuo chuckled, putting his hand on Lin Yi's shoulder. "I feel like the two of us grown men were defeated by our junior."
Zhou Yunyun: "Isn't this normal? My junior is so amazing!"
The other contestants around them were also discussing the two on the stage, making bets on who would win.
Qu Su kept his eyes fixed on Jiang Lai on the stage, not participating in the discussion around him.
Zhang Yan chatted with the person next to him for a while, and then turned around and saw that his teammate was staring at the girl with the same kind of lewd gaze as a pervert. He couldn't help but shudder and his whole body trembled. Then he patted Qu Su's table and waved his hand in front of him twice.
"I'm snapping out of it!"
Qu Su impatiently slapped his hand away: "You're blocking my way."
Zhang Yan laughed: "Am I blocking your way from gushing over your crush? Look at your worthless appearance!"
Qu Su rolled her eyes at him: "I'm happy to do it, what's it to you?"
"Fine! Never mind what I said." Zhang Yan pouted. "But you know what, these two are actually pretty good. They answered the questions so smoothly. If I didn't know that this show is really unscripted, I would have suspected that it was all staged."
Qu Su frowned: "What acting? She's clearly very capable."
"So you didn't see little brother Tao Qi? They're clearly very powerful, okay?"
While keeping an eye on the stage, the director backstage asked, "How's the live stream going?"
The assistant next to him said, "The number of online users, viewers, shares, and comments has been steadily increasing."
Lin Chaoyin: "Related searches and topics on other platforms are also showing an increasing trend."
"Okay, keep an eye out for any inappropriate comments and report them immediately so we can deal with them right away."
The questions were relatively simple at the beginning. When the camera cut to the contestants in the audience, some of them quickly gave their answers. Some of the viewers in the live stream were also answering the questions seriously. However, as the questions progressed, Jiang Lai and Tao Qi on stage became faster and faster, and the contestants and viewers in the audience gradually could not keep up with their speed.
—Why is it getting faster and faster? I don't think I'm using 2x speed.
—I strongly suspect they stole the exam questions!
—These top students have such a broad knowledge base!
These questions are way too obscure! They're so difficult! Who in their right mind would pay attention to these?
—Are you sure these two people are real people and not robots?
—Are you not a top student, you're a freak!?
Just as everyone was discussing, the words "All questions have been answered" suddenly popped up on the screen.
The audience gasped in surprise.
Host Shi Lan also looked surprised: "Then it's obvious that our result this time is still a draw! This is the first time I've encountered this situation~ I can only say that our two contestants are both strong and evenly matched!"
Jiang Lai noticed that Tao Qi's face was still a little unhappy, but the way he looked at her was much kinder than his initial "arrogance," and if anything, there was more "appreciation" in his eyes.
Jiang Lai suddenly remembered the meme that said "I have high hopes for you, follow me" and couldn't help but laugh.
Tao Qi saw it and walked over to her: "What are you laughing at?"
Jiang Lai looked down at him: "It's nothing, little kid, you're amazing!"
Tao Qi blushed slightly as he saw her praising him so earnestly. He suppressed his pride and said, "You're not bad either."
Jiang Lai was about to burst out laughing at him, and said, "Yes, yes, we are both very strong!"
Tao Qi said seriously, "How about we team up and defeat them all!"
Tao Qi was acting a bit like a child at this moment, actually saying such childish things.
Jiang Lai didn't refuse: "Then you tell the production team to let the two of us beat up the rest of them."
While the host and the production team were discussing how to calculate the competition results, Jiang Lai and Tao Qi were seriously discussing the possibility of the two of them illegally teaming up to defeat the others.
All that could be seen on stage was the two people: the girl was half-squatting, bending over to talk to the boy, and the little boy was trying hard to look up and talk to her. The two of them covered their mouths with their hands so that others could not see what they were saying.
—So cute, the two of them are sneaking around like that.
—I really want to know what they're talking about.
What were they saying on stage?
—So cute! They're both so cute! Tao Qi looks so adorable, and Jiang Lai is so sweet!
—But I still want to ask, are the two teams still tied for first place?
—What else? Shall we have another round?
Qu Su stared intently at the two people on the stage. To be precise, although Tao Qi appeared in his line of sight, he subconsciously ignored him and could only see Jiang Lai.
She turned slightly to the side, covered the microphone with her left hand, and spoke to Tao Qi with her right hand to her mouth. Then she lowered her head, and Tao Qi stretched his neck to get close to her ear.
Then she stood up straight, and the two of them, one big and one small, bumped fists as if they had reached some kind of deal. Then they stood up dignifiedly again, looking around the entire studio with innocent eyes.
Jiang Lai teased the little boy for a bit, then stood up and waited for the host to announce the final decision. Bored, she glanced at the contestants' seats, where some people smiled at her in a friendly manner.
But the most conspicuous one is Qu Su.
Qu Su stood out among the group.
Their eyes met, and then Jiang Lai winked at him.
Qu Su stared at her bright, full lips. "Am I... amazing?"
Qu Su read it aloud, then shifted his gaze to her entire face, and saw her wink at him.
Qu Su couldn't help but laugh, looking at him, and said silently, word by word, "Impressive."
Just like Jiang Lai before, she also gave a thumbs up.
Then he saw Jiang Lai give a bright smile and raise her eyebrows smugly.
Qu Su raised his hand to cover his face, afraid that others would notice his excessively upturned lips.
—? ? ? ?
—Didn't this guy notice the camera moved over?
—Brother, remember to cover your ears too, they're as red as something.
Why are they exchanging glances?! (Not in a derogatory sense)
—I knew the rivalry between Imperial University and Washington University was all about fun.
——how pay how pay how pay! ! !
—I knew it!!! As a fan of Qu Su and Jiang Lai, I knew something was off the moment they started playing games together!!!
—SuSu, you've really made something of yourself! All those little gestures you make in front of the camera, are you out of your mind?!
—I agree to this marriage.
—? ? ? I disagree with the statement from the Imperial University.
Jiang, a junior at Imperial University, is a campus beauty! How could we let Huada University snatch her away?! We shouldn't let the good stuff go to outsiders! What about the people from our school?!
Why don't you guys ship Tao Qi and Jiang Lai?
—Your idea upstairs is a bit dangerous.
—Well, you could also check out other schools; they have a few handsome guys there.
—Why are you guys trying to matchmake people here?
Just when the discussion in the live chat was about to spiral out of control, the host and the production team finally decided not to hold a tiebreaker, and USTC and Imperial University remained tied for first place in this competition.
Shi Lan: "Do the two contestants have any objections to the result?"
Jiang Lai shook her head while holding the microphone, and Tao Qi also indicated that he had no objection. "Can I be in a group with Sister Jiang?"
Shi Lan's smile froze: "Huh?"
Tao Qi said confidently, "I think Sister Jiang and I can beat all of them together. Can we team up?"
Shi Lan was at a loss for words: "But aren't you alumni?"
"The strong are not judged by their origins," Tao Qi replied earnestly.
"But isn't this competition supposed to give your respective schools extra points?"
Tao Qi forgot about that: "That's true." Then he turned to Jiang Lai and asked, "Let's team up again next time!"
Jiang Lai suppressed a laugh and nodded very seriously.
Shi Lan wiped the sweat from her forehead. Kids these days are a bit difficult to deal with!
"That concludes our warm-up matches for this morning. The current rankings are: Huaqiao University, Imperial University of Taipei, USTC, Tokyo University..."
—As expected, top is top.
—This ranking is really not surprising at all.
—It's already been three hours?
—Not enough! I want to watch the next match!
—Everyone can check it out on Douyin now! The production team released some behind-the-scenes footage of the contestants' first meeting yesterday, and there's also a question bank for today's questions. You can answer the questions on Douyin!
—The official account of the program on Douyin has a section dedicated to universities, which has already posted introductions of some universities based on their rankings. High school students who are interested can check it out.
—Are the two people upstairs from the production crew?
—Hahaha, I guessed so, it's too obvious.
This episode featuring university students will be filmed for a longer period than previous episodes, approximately three days. Lunch and dinner will be provided by the production team each day from 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM and from 2:00 PM to 5:00 PM. The contestants can allocate the remaining time as they wish.
That concludes this morning's recording.
