How can you ascend to heaven when you are a star?

Chapter 86 Encirclement and Suppression?

"Today's competition includes five events: singing, dancing, musical instrument, acting, and all-around. Each event is worth 10 points, for a total of 50 points. Each contestant can only participate in one event and cannot perform more than once. At the end, the group with the highest combined score will be the winner... Do you understand, teachers?"

After Xu Qingyu announced the rules, his eyes swept across everyone's face.

"understand!"

Everyone responded one after another.

There are no fancy content or complicated rules, everything is done in the simplest form.

Xu Qingyu looked at Deputy General Manager Liu Haiyang, who was sitting in the middle of the judges' table, and asked, "Boss Liu, what do you want to say?"

Liu Haiyang smiled and nodded, then looked at the teachers and trainees present and said, "It's been a while since I've participated in our company's internal competition. Today, I'm honored to receive Director Xu's invitation to serve as a judge for this competition. Please rest assured that Directors Wang, Yang, and I will treat each contestant fairly and objectively and make the most impartial judgments."

"Clap clap clap!"

Gu Chunyan raised her hands and clapped vigorously, her face full of enthusiasm and admiration, just like the crowd around her who were so moved after the fat son of the landlord next door finished speaking, they were almost crying and having snot.

By the time the others reacted, they were already half a beat too late and could only follow Gu Chunyan in applauding.

Xu Qingyu glanced at Gu Chunyan coldly, raised his hand and made a 'pressing down' gesture, signaling everyone to be quiet. Then he said loudly, "I declare that the competition has officially begun. The first event is singing. There are no restrictions on singing style or song. Each group please select one contestant to perform."

As soon as the words fell, Gu Chunyan was the first to stand up. She looked up at the five trainees behind her and asked, "Who's going to go up?"

He looked so casual and confident, as if anyone could win the competition.

Jiang Yijing next to him was secretly delighted, with a hint of pride in her eyes, as if she had already won first place.

Although Director Xu had just announced the content of the competition, she, Gu Chunyan and other teachers had been speculating about what the competition would be about for the past few days.

Considering that Director Xu is the director of the training department, and the training department is mainly responsible for training trainees, they linked the content of the competition with what the trainees usually learn. Whatever the trainees learn, they will compete in the competition.

The result was that they guessed four items correctly, namely singing, dancing, musical instruments and performance, but no one had expected the all-round item.

But it doesn’t matter anymore. As long as we can win the first four events, what does it matter if we lose the last one?
What's more, they have 25 trainees, so they won't necessarily lose in the all-around competition.

Jiang Yijing turned to look at the newcomer a few steps away and thought: Boy, you are bound to lose today!
Zhang Wen did not choose anyone immediately, but looked at the trainees in other teams. He didn't know until he saw that there were many unfamiliar faces among them.

When he was selecting the trainees, he did not gather all of them together, but just walked around the classrooms one by one. Now it seems that these must have slipped through the net.

"Teacher Gu, I'm here!"

"Teacher, I can do it too!"

"Let me go, I will definitely take first place."

The five trainees behind Gu Chunyan rushed forward, all wanting to take first place in today's competition and perform well in front of the company's top management.

If you can leave a deep impression on the top management and become the company's favorite, won't you get plenty of resources in the future?
Gu Chunyan was very satisfied with the students' performance. She glanced proudly at the team next to her, as if to say: See, what can you compare with me?

"Don't worry, everyone will have a chance to show off." Gu Chunyan said with a smile, then looked at the girl standing in the first place and said, "Don't be picky, Liu Meijun, it's you."

The girl's eyes lit up, her face filled with excitement, and she said loudly, "Thank you, teacher. I will definitely live up to your expectations."

After saying that, he took two steps forward and walked to the front of the team.

After seeing this, the other teachers called out the trainees with the strongest singing abilities in their teams.

In fact, they were just here to join the competition today, because the five strongest trainees were all in Teacher Gu's team. If the trainees in Teacher Gu's team couldn't win, the trainees in their team would have no chance of winning.

The reason why everyone has to participate is, first, to increase the momentum and scare the newcomer with the number of people, and second, to be on the safe side. If the trainees in Teacher Gu's team do not perform well, the trainees in their team will have to stand up to avoid being picked off by the newcomer.

"Teacher Zhang, who should we choose?" Sun Chengcheng asked in a low voice, her voice trembling with nervousness.

Zhang Wen glanced at the trainees sent by the other five teams and was startled. "Liu Meijun, skills: Guitar 55 points, Vocal 50 points, Folk Dance 46 points..."

"Ding Xinyi, skills: Street Dance 54 points, Piano 49 points, Vocal Music 49 points..."

"Wu Yihan, skills: Piano 55 points, Vocal 51 points, Performance 48 points..."

"..."

The five trainees not only possess multiple skills, but also have skill values exceeding 50 points, reaching professional level skills. It seems that these slippery fish are not simple.

However, the first event is singing, or vocal music, and these trainees’ strongest skills are not vocal music. Isn’t this a waste of opportunity?

If they come on stage now, won't they just be able to watch from the sidelines when they compete in dancing and musical instruments?

I thought Gu Chunyan was pretending to be casual when selecting people, but I didn't expect that she was really casual.

It seems that she didn't take him seriously.

Zhang Wen withdrew his gaze.

In that case, he would give the other party a surprise first.

"Zhao Tong, go!"

Zhang Wen winked at the short girl.

In fact, she is not short among women, her height is 160cm, but she is a little shorter than other girls in the team.

"is teacher!"

Zhao Tong walked out of the team.

As they passed by, Zhang Wen grabbed the girl's shoulders and whispered in her ear, "Don't be nervous. I've seen these trainees before. They're not as good as you in vocals. You can crush them as long as you perform normally."

The first half of the sentence was written by Zhang Wen, but he did not write the second half. Zhao Tong's vocal skill points are 58, only 2 points away from the elite level.

Her opponents only have a maximum of 51 points, and some don't even reach the professional level of 50 points. How can they win?

Zhao Tong was slightly stunned, then nodded confidently.

She may not believe what others say, but she will definitely believe what Teacher Zhang says, because she can feel that she has indeed changed a lot in recent days under Teacher Zhang's special training.

My personality is no longer as impulsive as before, and my pronunciation has become more accurate in my profession.

"Rock, paper, scissors determines the order, the loser goes first and the winner goes last." Xu Qingyu said.

The six trainees looked at each other and silently put one hand behind their backs.

"Scissors, paper, rock!"

After a few rounds, Liu Meijun from Gu Chunyan's team was the first to perform, Zhao Tong from Zhang Wen's team was the second, and Ding Xinyi from Jiang Yijing's team was the third...

When Jiang Yijing saw this ranking, she couldn't help but frown.

Teacher Gu’s student was the first to perform, which was the most undesirable result.

Fortunately, her student was ranked behind the newcomer, so she could adjust her strategy appropriately according to the performance of the other student.

If the new students perform better than Teacher Gu's students, then the people behind them will have to come up with difficult songs to win more points and surpass the new students; if the new students perform worse than Teacher Gu's students, then they can choose ordinary songs and give first place to Teacher Gu.

All in all, Mr. Bao Gu’s team won first place!
