Chapter 143: Competitive Preliminaries

The announcer's voice sounded: "In 1912, the ...... of Peking University"

"Ding Dong!"

TV audiences and producers in the variety show industry are all confused.

"Imperial Capital University, Wang Tie!" The host clicked on someone, and the audience saw the scene clearly.

In front of the announcer there were thirty tables, and behind each table sat a man with an answering device in front of them.

Obviously, this is the rush of the game.

But...... Wait, it's not this question that everyone is concerned about.

The name Wang Tie is too ordinary, and the person the camera is aimed at is the same as his name, his skin is dark, with plain glasses, and it seems that he came out of some ravine.

No, no, no, it's not a problem, the problem is that the announcer hasn't finished mentioning the problem yet!

Here is the rules of puzzle TV shows in this world.

After Fan Cheng crossed over to this world, he was surprised to see that the rules of puzzle variety shows in this world were a little different from his world, and this difference was reflected in the rush to answer questions.

The mode of the rush to answer the game of this world variety show is that the host reads the question and shouts to start answering before starting to answer, even if there is occasionally a need to shout to start answering, the participants of the competition will be used to answering the question when it is almost the same time.

But that's not the case with Fan Cheng's game.

"1912, Peking University West ......"

As soon as the announcer pronounced eight words, someone rushed to answer, which is completely different from the common puzzle variety shows in this world.

Everyone's eyes were on Wang Tie.

The swarthy and calm Wang Tie didn't seem to notice all this, and after a little thought, he said his answer: "Southampton." ”

β€¦β€¦οΌŸ

Answer...... Correct!" shouted the announcer.

Eh, eh, eh!!??

What is the correct answer!?

Isn't that scientific!!

Isn't this cheating???

Could this Wang Tie be able to prophesy!?

The audience was all messy.

The 24-hour puzzle marathon project began in such a messy opening that made everyone feel messy.

Fan Cheng appeared on the TV screen.

"Everyone should be confused, let me introduce the competition. ”

"What we are going on is the first round of the Genius Championship, and the thirty people sitting in front of me are the best students from several colleges and universities, including the Imperial Capital Demon Capital, who will compete for the final champion of the Genius Tournament and the 100,000 yuan reward for the champion!"

100,000 yuan, this number is not small, in the operation of TV stations, this amount can only be regarded as small money, but for ordinary people in this era, 100,000 yuan is already a figure that many people have not earned so far.

Fan Cheng continued to introduce the game.

"In the first round of our Genius Championship, we will adopt a rush system, but unlike the common rush answers, you can rush the answer at any time in the Genius Championship, so it is completely reasonable to answer like Wang Tie's rush just now. ”

"However, I think what everyone cares about must not be this, but why Wang Tie can answer this question correctly, so let's interview Wang Tie and see what he thinks. ”

After speaking, Fan Cheng walked in front of Wang Tie.

"Wang Tie, what did you think of this question just now?"

"Uh......" Wang Tie seems to be a little unaccustomed to the camera, but he still explained: "There were many major events in 1912, but only Titanic happened in the North Atlantic, but if you ask about Titanic, or the director of the movie Spielberg, or the starring role, the theme song, etc., it is too simple, so I speculated that it was the Titanic's route, and because the end of the route was New York, almost everyone knew it, so I answered Southampton." ”

"Hiss!" There was a burst of inhalation at the scene, and many producers in front of the TV were even more cold, they suddenly had a very bad premonition!

Fan Cheng took back the microphone and said to the camera: "Beautiful answers! Beautiful reasoning! This is the strength of the Genius Championship! Let's continue!"

It is indeed beautiful, Wang Tie's answer, if there is no time limit, there may be many people who make the same speculation as him, but just when the announcer read the question, he just read eight words! The whole question may not be read for two or three seconds! In such a short time, he can make such a complex reasoning and finally answer decisively, this Wang Tie's performance is indeed wonderful.

And the producers were even more surprised by this form that could be answered in advance.

Just after reading the first question, they don't have many special ideas, but majors like Song Yulong already have some bad premonitions.

And things went in the direction he feared.

The announcer begins to read the second question.

"The NBA Finals have just ended, and both teams have given us very good performances, so ...... 196……”

"Ding Dong!" another contestant pressed the answering machine, and even not only him, at this moment, most of the contestants on the scene suddenly pressed the answering machine, but this contestant answered faster.

"Philadelphia 76ers!"

"That's right!"

Burst!

The audience once again took a mouthful of old blood, this and this, it's open!?Cheating!?The previous question can still be reasoned, how can this question be reasoned! Ten answers!

Fan Cheng leaned over again and asked the audience's questions: "What do you think of this question? You answered it before you even asked the year?"

"Oh, it's very simple, from 1960 to 1969, only the 76ers won the championship in '67, and the rest of the years were won by the Celtics, and that's not even a two-choice question, the questioner will almost certainly choose to ask the question in '67. ”

Song Yulong frowned, and found that things were simply not simple, and the strength of this group of participants in the show was far beyond the imagination of normal people!

Both questions fully demonstrate the knowledge of the answerers, and then the answer to the first question just now reflects the reasoning ability of the answerer, and the second question shows the answerer's psychological mastery of the questioner!

The third question came soon: "...... English Socialism"

"Ding Dong!"

β€œDer Sozialismus。 ”

"That's right!"

……………… What is this TM?

Through the microphone, the respondent simply explained: "Marx was German. ”

As if he was afraid that the audience would not understand, Fan Cheng helped the answerer explain again: "The puzzle of this question seems to be to ask what socialism is in English, but the answerer feels that the question should not be so simple, and because Mr. Marx, the creator of the word socialism, is German, so he answered socialism in German, which is very beautiful, and he guessed correctly again!"

At this time, even Song Yulong couldn't help but applaud, this kind of reasoning ability is far beyond the scope of ordinary people, and after reading the three questions, Song Yulong basically knows the excitement of this rush to answer the question.

Fan Cheng's rush to answer the question is not the same thing as the rush answer link in the current era!

In today's era, the ordinary rush to answer mainly looks at the knowledge of the answerer, his talent and IQ, but Fan Cheng's version of your rush answer, because the participants are all geniuses, ordinary rush to answer the question, after the question is asked, there may be three or four out of ten people who know and then rush to answer, but here there may be ten people who all know the answer, at this time it is not the knowledge and ability of the participants, personal IQ, reaction speed, reasoning ability, and even psychology and even luck and the probability of possible answers, these have become the quality of the answerer!

Compared with the ordinary rush answer questions in this world, this kind of rush answer has higher requirements for the quality of the participants, and the ordinary answer may not be able to guess the question by reasoning at all, but the advantage is that the ornamental nature of this rush answer is far from being comparable with the ordinary rush answer!

The new rush answer, from the moment the host says the first word, your mind needs to run desperately, before considering the answer, you must first consider what the topic is!

"This Fan Cheng is really ...... Awesome!" Song Yulong couldn't help but sigh.

This kind of rush is no longer just a competition of knowledge, but almost a competition, a "competition"!

Compared with this kind of rush answer, the original rush answer in this world is more like a game, like an amateur competition that everyone plays after dinner!

What Song Yulong doesn't know is that this is indeed the case, Fan Cheng's various knowledge competitions in Japan have formed a kind of "profession" called "quiz kings", these quiz kings run around in various quiz competitions all over Japan, and even publish books, give speeches, shoot videos, have their own fans and peripherals, and some of them are beautiful and even shoot photo albums and change careers to other directions......

It can be said that Fan Cheng's world, Japan's quiz king, and the participants in the puzzle program competition in this world are no longer the same world at all.

The Q&A continued.

"Math, please calculate the result of adding the next ten sets of numbers. ”

β€œ9576+8216+8324+8344+2135+325+51+5673+1358+……”

Then, the moment the last set of numbers came out......

β€œ4497!”

"Ding Dong!"

"Click, click!"

β€œ48499!”

"Correct!"

This time it's just as powerful, the phase acceleration calculation of ten groups of numbers is a powerful ability in itself, not to mention, the answerer uses a "pressure gun" technique similar to that in the sprint, and presses the rush answer at the moment when the last set of numbers comes out, and then uses the last moment before answering the question to calculate the number and give the answer!

Compared with the first two questions, although the reasoning and even psychological abilities are used, if you really read the question, most ordinary people can still answer it, but this question has broken through the category of ordinary people, ordinary people have to press the computer for a while after seeing the question, but this group of geniuses gave the answer in an instant!

The first part of the preliminaries lasted about eighty minutes, and there was still about an hour left after removing the advertisement, and this one-hour game passed in various questions and answers, and by eleven o'clock in the evening, everyone was relieved, and they found that this more than one-hour program turned out to be the most tense hour and a half for them to watch puzzle variety shows!

The competition of the geniuses is simply too powerful, in the entire preliminaries part, there is almost no question that is read to the end, most of the questions are like the first question, just the beginning of the press to snatch away.

What's even worse is that in the more than an hour of the program, you can hardly see any answer errors, not even editing problems, but really, almost no errors! According to the final statistics, the accuracy rate of these geniuses in the entire preliminaries is more than 95%!

If it is replaced by any other puzzle variety show in the world, this data is impossible to achieve.

In the final results of the preliminaries, a total of ten geniuses advanced to the finals, eight boys and two girls, and the most concerned among them was Wang Tie, who answered the first question correctly.

In all 30 competitions, Wang Tie answered the most questions correctly, ranking first among all the scores, and his resume is equally attractive.

Two years ago, Wang Tie, who participated in the college entrance examination, won the champion of Jiangsu, a strong province in the college entrance examination, with a super high score of 740+, the champion is just a trivial matter for a genius, and what is even more exaggerated is that in the middle of the university, Wang Tie actually completed all the disciplines of the Department of Architecture, and turned to psychology, it is said that his goal is to finish psychology within a year, and then go to the Department of Mathematics when he is in the fourth grade!

Speaking of Wang Tie's opponent, it is Li Zuo of Tsinghua Garden, this person's deeds are also legendary, he has not yet risen to the third year of high school is already a well-known genius, he has won the national first prize for his invention, he passed the TOEFL in the first year of high school, and he is equally proficient in Russian and French.

Such an exaggerated resume, although it is also the top among the ten people who stand out, but the other eight people are not inferior to him.

Some people have received offers from many top universities in Europe and the United States at the same time, some have solved math problems while still being a high school student, and some have even developed websites that have just changed hands and sold for tens of thousands of dollars......

The competition of these talents is dazzling and impressive, and what is even more terrifying is that this is only the preliminary round!

At 11 o'clock in the evening, all the producers couldn't help but feel a chill down their backs after watching the first part, although they watched these shows as producers, but even so, they still couldn't help but want to see the final 20 hours later, the preliminaries were so exciting, the people who watched it were almost out of breath, what will happen to the final final!?

And the person who made this show is equally terrible, don't forget, there was a conclusion in the circle before, puzzle shows are close to the people, that is, down-to-earth, it is not good to ask masters to do the show, but after watching this for an hour and a half, does anyone dare to say that!?

If that's not pretty, then what counts as good!?

Everyone realized that the puzzle programs they produced before were like watching their relatives and friends play on the wild field, and this show produced by Fan Cheng is the game of real professional players on the professional field!

The levels of the two are completely different, although the sense of substitution is less, the degree of excitement and excitement has increased a hundredfold!
