Beta cannon fodder just wants to make perfume

In front of the broadcast screen.

"Hmph~ This woman is really hard to deal with." Cang Weiran crossed his arms and squeezed out a comment full of complaints.

"She has some skills, but it's not a good time to take action. You better be careful behind her." Zong Xiangsheng gave casual instructions.

That's right, Cang Weiran smiled and said, "Just wait and see! The best is yet to come!"
Zhu Fu urgently trained her physical fitness for two days and entered the competition venue with this consolation that was better than nothing.

Ten square display stands were lined up in the middle of the venue, each with a bottle of perfume fixed on it. Facing the row of display stands was a material wall on one side and sixty operating tables on the other side. The contestants stood on both sides.

Zhu Fu exhaled in pain. This setting was really obvious. It was just to cause trouble. You couldn't choose the materials without confirming the scent of the perfume. After confirming, you had to run from one end to the other to get the materials, doing a 100-meter sprint. In the meantime, you had to be careful of others snatching them away.

There were still 30 seconds left before the official start, which was enough time to make basic judgments on the ten scent bottles. The setting of the competition would not change the entire scent bottle and color. After all, this was an insignificant job. Anyone who had worked knew to try not to increase their workload. So she easily picked out three targets -

The black bottle is made of materials that are not sensitive to light, so it can be basically concluded that it is the popular model Midnight Escape from the past few years.

The colorless bottle at the edge is plain, but with angel wings on the bottle, this is the classic holy whisper.

There is also a round bottle with carved petals containing a charm, which is a master's showpiece.

These three stand out among the rest of the perfumes. Not only are they more technically challenging, but they also have distinct characteristics in the materials used. You only need to smell them to make a decision, and you can go straight to the next step without even spending much effort analyzing them. This is very advantageous for the competition, and you can even get a little bonus because of the complexity of the formula.

The problem now was which one to choose. To be honest, Zhu Fu was not sure. Her physical strength was not enough to support accurate execution without mistakes. What if she was squeezed out? If she lost the initial opportunity, it would be more difficult to squeeze in later. Once she made a mistake, the few materials on both sides would also become obstacles.

So choice becomes particularly important.

Holy Whisper's position is on the farthest side in her direction, so it can be directly ruled out, while the other two are in the relatively middle position, even only one position apart, in fourth and sixth place respectively. Judging from the position alone, none of them has an advantage.

Zhu Fu sighed inwardly, let's just go with the fourth one, don't be picky, it's still possible if you get closer and rush, and this aphrodisiac material is very complicated, competitors may not choose it after identifying it, this is her chance, confirm it as quickly as possible and get the material without any delay.

"That's it..." What will happen next is completely unpredictable. After all, plans are not perfect, and in the end, we still have to return to the incense.

Although the other players may not have such plans, at this tense moment that requires concentration, all their eyes were turned to observe the field.

beep--

The whistle sounded, the barriers on both sides disappeared, and the contestants rushed to the middle platform.

Zhu Fu ran towards the fourth position without distraction. As expected, her physical strength was not as good as others. An Alpha male perfumer who looked a size bigger than her stopped beside Mi Qing before her. He stretched out his hand and warned Zhu Fu with a deterrent look.

"Please, please, please~" Zhu Fu spread his hands decisively, indicating that he would not compete with him, and even raised his hand to block the person who came later.

Under the wise eyes of the male Alpha, Zhu Fu took the first action after the man pressed the button and ran straight to the material price.

The male Alpha was stunned for a moment, then he reacted and ran after her angrily, "You used me—"

Perfume is not limited to being smelled by only the person who presses it. Zhu Fu stood so close just to get a bargain. All she needed to do was to confirm the formula of the perfume, and once she could smell it, she could proceed to the next step.

Zhu Fu quickly picked up the basket next to the material rack, his eyes constantly scanning the labels on the rack, his brain working frantically to analyze.

The material rack is arranged in order from common to rare, main materials and supporting materials, and the reason why "Enchantment" is called a show of skill is because it incorporates nine main materials, which greatly exceeds the amount of supporting materials, so the first thing to obtain now is the uncommon main materials!
Zhu Fu dragged her legs and continued to run to the back, panting. She climbed the ladder and squatted on the ground, and collected the materials one by one. This further confirmed the sinister intentions of the organizer. According to the average distribution calculation, each perfume should have a reserved configuration, but the materials she had just taken were so excessive that there were only two portions. It was obvious that the organizer was very happy to see the contestants fighting and clashing.

After getting such materials, Zhu Fu didn't dare to stay any longer. She quickly walked to the material rack and started to get materials. Finally, when more people came to the material area, she had already taken the most common materials from the first rack and was ready to start returning.

Taking a look at the contestants lingering near the perfume, Zhu Fu could sense their determination to roll up their sleeves and get to work from a distance. She was unwilling to sacrifice herself in a head-on confrontation, so she turned around, took down the sunflower leaves, and covered her basket.

At this time, the Alpha brother had also collected all the materials, and rushed out with courage and fearlessness. Zhu Fu hurriedly followed with the basket.

"Let me go - get it yourself!" "I made the wrong choice! Really! I'm not sure! I'm just a perfumer with poor talent -"

"Let go, ahhhh~ It's leaking! My material!"

Sure enough, the leaders and the players who were pushed to the back and were waiting in frustration, started a fight, and the live broadcast audience suddenly became active.

[Hahahaha~ Is this still the elegant perfumer from before? ]

[Where is your dignity? Where is your integrity? Perfumers? ]

[Is there anyone who regrets participating in the competition now? 】

[It’s no use regretting it, I’ve already made the emoticon package hahaha]

[The dog is sneaking around, trying to find a way to get out of this situation, trying to leave but still staying...]

Amid the audience's joy and the participants' suffering, Zhu Fu finally managed to break through the blockade at the cost of having her basket torn off. Fortunately, she had the habit of wearing a coat, so she was able to successfully carry the materials to the workbench.

Looking at the occupied central workbench, Zhu Fu very tactfully chose a seat at the back, at least with less distractions. The center might have a better camera, but compared to showing off her skills, she always felt that she should pursue completion first. Given the purpose of the organizer, they would not leave behind a segment for demonstrating technology, otherwise how could they praise people?
Zhu Fu, who started to pack up the materials, did not notice the stunned contestant behind him. He wanted to grab Zhu Fu to get something before putting the materials on the workbench, but he did not expect that Zhu Fu ran in a roundabout route and avoided his outstretched hand.

Cang Weiran straightened his clothes and glanced at the contestant before giving up in disappointment and turning around to scramble for the materials.

At this time, Zhu Fu had already put on gloves and was ready to start work. Seeing this scene, Cang Weiran's eyes flashed. It seemed that Zhu Fu often wore gloves?
According to the rules, one cannot disturb the workbench, so apart from a little noise coming from the side, Zhu Fu was able to complete the preparation without any distractions.

You can't not concentrate. The early stages of making the Love Enchantment are as complicated as mixing a cocktail. After all, the blending ratio of so many main ingredients is a big challenge. Otherwise, how can it be called a show of skill?
The camera is focused on the workbench area, and all the contestants' movements are conveyed truthfully to the audience inside and outside the venue.

In order to increase the participation of ordinary people, this session has set up two scoring teams: public judges and professional judges. The scores are calculated in a 50-50 ratio. For these outsiders, they can only try to see something during the production process, but can't they concentrate on watching it now?

As the competition entered the second half, contestants submitted their works one after another and began waiting for scoring.

Due to material limitations and parsing errors, 23 people were eliminated as their works could not be matched with the ten bottles of perfume. Of the remaining 37 people, some had their works not completed by the deadline, and some had obvious mistakes in the configuration process, so 14 people were eliminated again. In the end, only 23 people entered the judging and scoring stage.

Samples of these twenty-three seemingly complete perfumes were sent to the judges, awaiting the final verdict.

Although Zhu Fu was confident in her skills, anything could happen at this time. You can never be sure that everything will go smoothly, so she couldn't help but feel nervous.

This stage is followed by the top ten competition. The current 23 entries seem to have made the cut, but in reality, it is far from certain that they will enter the next round.

"Channel 51's public rating score: 10 points, 10 points, 10 points..."

"Huh~" Zhu Fu let out a sigh of relief. All of them were full marks. It seemed that the audience were quite satisfied with her.

"Your work..." The professional judge's words were circling in his mouth, but when he saw his Omega colleague standing over there in the dispatch group, he swallowed back his critical words. Although most people couldn't understand it, his colleagues in the industry always did. If this unprofessional behavior was disclosed and his reputation was ruined, he would have no chance of making it in the future.

“The completion is good, just don’t pay too much attention to the technique.”

But not all professional reviewers are sensible.

"The impact is too strong, it makes people dizzy. It is not a desirable direction in perfume making. Young people should not only think about showing off their skills, but also be more down-to-earth."

Interesting~ Zhu Fu put on a smile. This scent of Ecstasy itself is a work of showmanship, and its characteristic is the psychedelic feeling brought by the impactful smell. Now she is using this to say that it is not right? If she really doesn't do this, she will not be able to get through the public judges who are comparing her smell with the original version.

Is this directed at, or is it directed at?
