Chapter 1148 408. Playing the game with my mother [Twenty-seven]

Teacher Wang's relief seemed somewhat out of place with the atmosphere in the lounge at the moment.

At this moment, even the contestants who had no hope of advancing could not help but feel their heartbeats quicken.

Not everyone can advance, but that doesn't mean that everyone doesn't care about personal results.

If you can’t get into the top three, can’t you hope for the top six?
If you can’t hope to be in the top six, can’t you pray that you don’t end up at the bottom?
No one really has no expectations for the outcome of the game, it’s just that the goals are different.

Just like yesterday when he got the competition results, Teacher Wang rushed to the players' rest room as soon as possible.

His task is to tell everyone the final result first.

Under the gaze of all the contestants, he quickly opened the envelope and took out a folded red card.

He flipped the card open and scanned it from top to bottom, sighed slightly, and then began to announce the results.

"Contestant No. 9.71, Jamel Xiao, average score ."

In an instant, all kinds of eyes were focused on Jamel Xiao.

Tang Haoran was distracted and immediately led the applause: "9.71!"

This is the highest score since the start of this tournament!
Then the other contestants followed suit and applauded.

"Thank you, thank you." Xiao Jingchen seemed to have not fully reacted for a while. He thought the first name he heard should be Che Lin or Sun Wenjun.
He clapped his hands and looked in the direction of Teacher Wang in disbelief.

"Congratulations." Teacher Wang smiled and nodded.

Jamel Xiao let out a sigh, and his face was finally replaced with an indescribable joy.

Then, "Player No. 09, 9.62."

"Wow————"

Applause broke out again. No. 09 was Sun Wenjun, but some contestants' eyes fell on Jamel Xiao's face again.

Although the staff teacher did not include the ranking when announcing the scores, everyone knew why Jamel Xiao was the first one to be announced.

As expected by most contestants, the top two were indeed Jamel Xiao and Sun Wenjun.

It’s just that before the results came out, some people thought that Sun Wenjun should be ranked first, while others thought that Xiao Jingchen should be ranked first.

Now their predictions are no longer important, as 21 professional judges from home and abroad have given them a reference.

one cent.

It can be said that Xiao Jingchen's average score is a full point higher than Sun Wenjun's.

What does a whole point mean?
Most of the players present have played high-end games. In this kind of competition, a one-point difference between the first and second place is equivalent to a difference of half a level.

To put it bluntly: In the eyes of the judges, on today's stage, Sun Wenjun is no match for Jamel Xiao.

Facing the applause of congratulations, Sun Wenjun smiled without losing control.

But no one knew how sad she was at this moment.

When she heard Jamel Xiao's name being read out by the staff first, she only had one last hope in her heart, that the score would not be too different.

But then I heard that my score differed by 0.9 from the other person's.
This is no longer a matter of how many points he lost. This point difference means that he lost to the opponent in all aspects.

She really didn't know where she was lacking. There was clearly nothing wrong with her performance, and her score in the last competition was clearly ahead of Jamel Xiao.

"thank you all."

Sun Wenjun whispered softly that at this moment he just wanted to disappear here.

The comforting hand extended to her by her good friend Chen Yutong made her feel that she had messed up everything, and she didn't know how to face the global finals that would be held in a month.

She couldn't even get first place in the Chinese competition, so what was the point of her going to Poland?

Just when Sun Wenjun's result was announced as second place.

Apart from the parties involved, the remaining contestants quickly turned their attention to the third place who was about to be announced.

Who will get the last ticket?
There was only one ticket left, and there were thirteen contestants on the field.

For a moment, all the contestants' eyes began to wander to contestants No. 01, 05, and 02.

And just then, "Contestant 05, 9.53."

He Jiaming's expression changed several times in an instant. Why?
The next second he became the only focus.

"Wow————"

The applause sounded like a slap in his face.

Why not Xiaoche sister?! He can't accept it!
The moment he did not hear contestant No. 01 appear behind contestant No. 13, He Jiaming had a strange feeling in his heart.

He realized that he might have lost his chance to go to Poland, but surprisingly he did not feel very bad.

However, when he heard that he was the third, he did not feel like he had regained his lost place. It seemed that the only thing left in his ears was the last sentence of the little car sister, which he almost did not hear clearly, "Just this once".
This time, Xiaoche sister didn't even care whether she went to Poland or not, she just wanted to get a ticket. But now the ticket has been taken away by herself.
He felt extremely uncomfortable. He heard the applause from those closest to him and the congratulations from those beside him, but he did not have the courage to turn around and look at the people who were congratulating him.

He felt like a thief who had stolen the car sister's ticket.

He Jialin really couldn't accept it. Xiaoche was so much better than him, so why was her score behind him?
He Jiaming was not the only contestant who felt uncomfortable at the moment.

And there is Tang Haoran.

When Tang Haoran heard that Jamel Xiao was the first place, a trace of helplessness flashed across his face.

Although he is just a player, he also has his own personal ranking for this round.

In his ranking list, player No. 01 is number one.

The reason is simple. He, who is called the human metronome, can not only judge the speed, but he can also clearly hear the various speed and emotional changes of contestant No. 01 in the five works.

He didn't understand at first, but felt it was amazing the more he listened. Finally, he could say responsibly that contestant No. 01 could also play the way Jamel Xiao and Sun Wenjun played, and conversely, no one at the scene could play the way contestant No. 01 played.

Even if contestant No. 01 teaches you how to process her Beethoven piece, you still won’t be able to learn it.

Because the way of suddenly changing the speed of the motive and moving the music forward while fading away is completely contrary to what they have learned, and it is a process that goes against their muscle memory.

Sounds super cool, right?!
Of course, Tang Haoran also knew that as a competition, contestant No. 01's alternative treatment was indeed not advantageous compared with contestants like Xiao Jingchen, Sun Wenjun and He Jiaming.

It would not be an exaggeration to say that he was at a complete disadvantage. He couldn't say for other judges, but he was sure that his teacher would not give a high score to contestant No. 01.

But if his teacher can give contestant No. 01 a high score, then contestant No. 01 is very likely to surpass everyone and become the first place.

So in his expectation, if the first place is not contestant No. 01, contestant No. 01 will probably not be among the top three.

It was just as he expected.

Ugh.

To be honest, Tang Haoran felt quite uncomfortable. Although sister No. 01 had just said something to him, he knew that he was just being nagging.

Deep down, he really hopes that players like No. 01 can represent Group C of the Chinese region to Poland.

Compared with Tang Haoran and He Jiaming, Jamel Xiao felt more sorry for contestant No. 01.

But there was no way, looking at Chen Yutong who had already started wiping his eyes, Xiao Jingchen could only say that this was the competition.

But he had a feeling that contestant No. 01 would surprise everyone one day.

He had already prepared that contestant No. 01 would win the gold medal in Group C today.

Based on his personal experience, he would advise contestant No. 01 not to think too much, as the results of one competition do not mean much, and the judges of each competition are different. He still remembers the last competition he had with Sun Wenjun, and he even felt that he performed better that time.

But last time his score was not as high as Sun Wenjun's, but this time his score was 0.9 points higher than Sun Wenjun.

"Wow—"

Thinking of this, Jamel Xiao led another round of applause. The applause was for No. 05, whose stage performance style was worth learning from. The applause was also for No. 05. Putting aside the stage, No. 01's understanding of Beethoven's works far surpassed him.

However, his understanding does not mean that other contestants can understand it. Some contestants did not pay more attention to Contestant No. 01 when they heard that Contestant No. 01 was not among the top three.

At the beginning, they were indeed looking forward to the result of contestant 01, because they could not understand the Beethoven and Mazurka played by contestant 01 at all and had never seen them before.

Now it seems that maybe it's not that they don't understand
After all, the results are here, and they are given by the most authoritative teachers.

No one is gloating, and no one can really gloat over other people's misfortune. The last Bach piece sung by contestant No. 01 has already said it all.

What’s more important is that contestant No. 01 is only 13 and a half years old.

When they have to play in Group D in the next Xiao Xiao Tournament, Player 01 will still be in Group C as long as he signs up.

It may also be because contestant No. 01 is still young, and what he plays is too personal.

"Wow————"

All of this happened in less than two minutes, but the applause did last longer than when the top two places were announced.

After all, after the results of the top three were announced, the competition in Group C came to an end.

On this point, staff member Mr. Wang and other contestants also reached a consensus.

After all, most of the players present are already veterans of the competition.

Staff member Mr. Wang has experienced this moment more than once.

Normally, after announcing the top three, he could just quickly go over the results of the remaining contestants. There was no need to give each one time for applause.

But he wanted to leave some time for today's fourth place, because today's fourth place is contestant No. 01.

It has nothing to do with the stage or the performance, it’s just a selfish desire of his.

Before contestant No. 01 went on stage, he was called "Teacher Wang". This was the first time in three days, and his name badge was hanging around his neck.

"Competitor No. 01, 9.50 points, very impressive."

As he spoke, staff member Wang took the lead in applauding.

"Wow——————"

Only 0.03 points difference?
"Thank you, Teacher Wang, and thank you everyone."

Only 0.03 points difference?
"Come on kid, you're only 13."

Only 0.03 points difference?
In an instant, when they heard the result of contestant No. 01, the faces of all the contestants changed again and again.

They suddenly realized that this was a result that was more than half an hour late.

They made various analyses and guesses during this period.
Some people analyzed that they might be stuck at the last qualifying spot.

Now compare the results of No. 05 and No. 01
Looking at contestant No. 01 again, many people showed regretful expressions.

They didn't know what issues the judges discussed in the meeting, but this was the result.

Contestant No. 01 missed the last ticket by a narrow margin of 0.03 points.
It's only 0.03 points.
After digesting his emotions, Sun Wenjun couldn't help but sigh again. Maybe this is the game.
At this time, "Teacher, I want to ask, does our group C only have three qualifying spots?"

As Tang Haoran finished speaking, He Jiaming quickly followed up and repeated the question, his anxious tone as if he was the fourth.

Tang Haoran was the first to react. Perhaps the judges decided to hold a meeting because of the score difference.

Teacher Wang didn’t say what the result of the meeting was!

For a moment, all the contestants' eager eyes were focused on Teacher Wang's face.

However, Mr. Wang also felt very sorry about this. He had no idea what the judges discussed in the meeting, and his colleagues in the meeting room did not say anything when they handed him the sealed letter with the list.

But he knew that only the top three would advance in this round.

Because the words [Advance] are written behind the scores of the top three contestants.

As for contestant No. 01, there was nothing behind the score.

"There are only three qualifying spots."

As Teacher Wang finished speaking, Xiaoche's little fist hanging at the edge of her skirt clenched and loosened, and finally swung away, as if all the strength in her body was drained at this moment.

The rest room fell into silence again.

Sudden.

"Look!"

Lin Ruoxi called out, and instantly everyone looked at the big screen!
It seemed that everyone's eyes were not enough at this moment.

The scoring details that should have appeared on the website were actually overlaid on the stage screen at this moment.

From the next second to the next, no one could take their eyes off the score sheet of player No. 01.

"Oh my god! Six perfect marks!"

"Six full marks!"

"In total, there are only fifteen full marks!"

"It's so cruel."

At this moment on the big screen, the six points belonging to contestant No. 01 appeared extremely scarlet.

In an instant, a huge wave of excitement arose in the hearts of all the contestants.

This is actually the result.
The expressions of the contestants kept changing uncontrollably.

Unlike the full marks obtained by the first three contestants, let’s see who gave full marks to contestant No. 01.

Everyone present knew what value these six perfect scores represented.

Looking at contestant No. 01 again, everyone felt terrified.
-
at the same time.

The score sheet, which was supposed to be published on the official website after the game, appeared simultaneously on all the big screens that were still waiting for the results of the game.

In the parents' viewing area, Li An saw a flash on the big screen and immediately stood up.

When he carefully distinguished the ranking and score of the cars, his whole face was distorted.

All the emotions of the nail were written in the corners of his eyes.

Nail cried.

Dingzi, who had never known how to write the word "cry", covered his mouth and lowered his head, as if he didn't dare to look at the big screen again.

Sang Ping finally stood up. She patted Dingzi on the back and looked at the big screen calmly.

It is worth mentioning that the commotion in the parents' viewing area was far more intense than that in the players' rest room.
-
"It's just nonsense!"

Angrily, Liang Shan pushed the laptop away, scaring three colleagues around him who were still working on their manuscripts.
