Chapter 128: Provincial Semifinals
In the next two days, Yao Jiani was a little embarrassed when she saw Fu no matter what, so the semifinals and finals of the provincial competition began in embarrassment. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoThis contest is going to be bigger and more important than the last one, and it's going to be broadcast on TV after all. So this time, the venue of the competition was also changed to the TV station.
When Yao Jiani and the three of them were going to the game, the school also attached great importance to it, and Yao Jiani invited Zhang Jiani and Meng Leling to watch their games.
After learning that Yao Jiani was going to participate in the competition, several of Yao Jiani's new friends, Song Che and Chen Qiao, also asked for places to go together, of course, Chen Haoyu was not exempt. The three of them are in the same class and are also the school's influential figures, but Yao Jiani rarely pays attention to this, of course she doesn't know, and these two people don't like to pay attention to what happens in the school, so in the end, the two groups of people who are definitely the most influential people in the school don't know each other.
The family also closed the store on this day, but they didn't go to the scene to refuel for fear of putting pressure on Yao Jiani, so they stayed in front of the TV early.
Yao Jiani and Du Nanjie rarely dressed more formally, but they only wore a suit and a white dress. Shi Yiliu is more exaggerated, wearing a purple dress to reveal a figure that has some curves, and her face is also painted with delicate makeup, which is not like participating in an English speech contest but more like attending a drinking party.
When passing Yao Jiani, Shi Yiliu raised her head exaggeratedly and walked over.
The game started soon, the first day started with the semi-finals, Yao Jiani's position was still relatively low, but in front of Shi Yiliu, Du Nanjie was relatively high. In the semi-finals, a professor from the English Department of Ningxi University and a foreign teacher were invited as special judges.
The competition was very intense and very difficult at the beginning. The content of the semi-final competition is to make up a story based on the prompts given by the judges. This stumped a large group of contestants, and it was difficult for Chinese people who learned mute English to make up a pure English story in a short period of time, especially in front of everyone, but fortunately, the organizing committee did not have too much difficulty to tell everyone that they could tell the stories they had seen, but it was required to be in English.
A few of the participants were lucky enough to read English storybooks, and some of them were stumbling through. Du Nanjie's order of playing was relatively high, and Yao Jiani was still cheering on the side when he played.
Fortunately, Du Nanjie is not a person with stage fright, so far he is the player with the highest score, and his story is not made up by himself, but the plot of a novel he has read, fortunately, it is smooth enough, and the story is exciting enough.
After a while, it was finally Yao Jiani's turn, she was the easiest person to go on stage, calmly waving to the friends in the audience, Chen Qiao and Song Che were even more excited to whistle and shout.
"Draw lots, please." The host led Yao Jiani to a box placed next to her, and the audience was silent at this time. Yao Jiani suddenly became playful and deliberately pretended to be very nervous. At this time, when I suddenly saw Fu Jiani quietly looking at Yao Jiani in the corner of the audience, Yao Jiani suddenly felt very moved, this man came to Ningxi City It is definitely not easy, except for that night, I have hardly seen him in the past two days, and I will actually see him here today I don't know how much work he has pushed off.
When she saw him, Yao Jiani was stunned.
"It's time for Yao Jiani to draw lots." Knowing that the host is reminding you on the side is considered a reaction. smiled at Fu Shi and went to draw lots.
Slowly took out the note, and gently opened it, showing "stone", "broom", "train" Yao Jiani was also stunned when she saw the words on the note, which made her have no idea at all, when everyone saw the note in Yao Jiani's hand, there was a feeling of disbelief, the note drawn by the players in front of her would basically make people think of one or two prototypes of the story, but this in Yao Jiani's hand not only blinded her to the audience present, but also blinded the audience. Yao Jiani turned around and saw Shi Yiliu waiting backstage, her smile smiling proudly.
Yao Jiani sighed, it seems that she will draw this note Shi Yiliu is a lot of effort, Yao Jiani raised her eyes and glanced at the professor who was said to be the professor of the English Department of Ningxi University sitting in the audience, if she remembered correctly, this bald eldest brother is Shi Yiliu's uncle, Shi Yiliu often finds Yao Jiani unpleasant stumbling block, although it is childish, but Yao Jiani never dares to underestimate a woman or send someone to check Shi Yiliu's family very seriously, this classroom is her uncle, can be regarded as the elder who likes him the most.
This professor actually has a very good reputation in the industry, he is a respectable literati with his own backbone, but he didn't expect to do such a conscience for his niece now.
"Hehe" Yao Jiani chuckled, because she suddenly thought of what story she could tell, this story was a story that swept the world in later generations. is the novel "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" that both adults and children are particularly familiar with in later generations, Yao Jiani stood on the stage very confidently, and then began to tell the story, of course, the time is limited, only one of the paragraphs is told, and these three words are connected.
It's just such a short paragraph, after Yao Jiani finished speaking, the foreign teacher got up from the chair excitedly, kept praising Yao Jiani, gave her the highest evaluation, and even invited Yao Jiani to have dinner together after the competition, he wanted to hear more stories, and it was not too enjoyable at all.
Yao Jiani smiled, and originally wanted to readily agree, but when she saw Fu, she was already a little angry with this foreign teacher on her face, but she still gave up. "I'm sorry, I have an appointment for the evening." Yao Jiani simply refused the invitation.
In front of everyone, this professor is not good at giving Yao Jiani a bad review, unless he really doesn't want to do it in this industry anymore, the performance of foreign teachers has shown Yao Jiani's excellence, there is no way, he can only give Yao Jiani a little depressed A score that is not high or low, and the foreign teacher next to him is still a little unhappy when he sees this score.
When Yao Jiani walked backstage, she looked at Shi Yiliu's expression very seriously, "Sometimes people always lift a stone and shoot themselves in the foot." Good luck. Although Yao Jiani felt that her-for-tat was a bit naïve, it was also a good experience.
After Shi Yiliu came on stage, because she was scared by Yao Jiani or for some other reason, she failed to play in short, and in the end she just stopped in the semifinals, Yao Jiani still entered the finals with the highest score.
