I loaded up the life makeover game

Chapter 114 The rematch begins

That night, the results of the fifth day of the knockout round came out, and Lansha surpassed Chen Xiu'an in the number of votes.

His current number of votes for the knockout round has dropped from the third place at the beginning to the fourth place.

Lansha finally got 191 votes, successfully overtaking the original No. [-], and came to the currently eliminated No. [-] with an advantage of one vote.

In fact, Chen Xiu'an was quite surprised by this result.

After all, it was already the fifth day, and if it wasn't for Lansha's appearance, his votes would still be in third place.

In the beginning, Chen Xiu'an did not dare to think about such a situation.

After all, there are many strong players in the national competition.

But it can only be said that Chen Xiuan underestimated her own strength.

In fact, his votes were not so easy to get.

The knockout round was drawing to a close, and Jiang Zhi had been waiting for nearly a week, and finally it was her turn to perform.

Jiang Zhi still performed steadily, and because of her own advantages in appearance, coupled with her striking dreadlocks, she was naturally easier to remember than Chen Xiuan.

When the final votes were counted, they directly got the highest number of votes with 195 votes and won the first place in the knockout round.

There is actually no obvious difference between Jiang Zhi's strength and the others in the top three.

Even if professional judges were to evaluate it, but judging from the performance in the knockout round, Jiang Zhi still had a lot of uncertainty in wanting to win the first place.

But it's because of audience votes.

Jiang Zhi's unisex looks gave her a great advantage in canvassing votes.

In addition, among the ten contestants in that match, Jiang Zhi's strength crushed her performance.

Under such circumstances, in Chen Xiuan's opinion, even getting full marks is not incomprehensible.

But how to say, the list of those who successfully advanced from the knockout rounds to the semi-finals finally came out after a week of long knockout rounds.

Chen Xiu'an finished fifth, Jiang Zhi was first, and Lan Sha was second.

In the entire Sichuan competition area, only the three of them entered the top ten.

There were only four people who advanced to the knockout round, and the other player had more than 30 votes.

But even so, the Sichuan Provincial Division has become the one with the most players among the top ten.

It is worth mentioning that although the final advance to the rematch is the top [-].

But the number of players is more than 50, there are 56 people.

Because some players get the same number of votes.

According to the relevant rules, even if the votes are the same, as long as they enter the top [-] in the overall ranking, they can enter the semi-finals.

The day when the related list came out was actually the day when the players who lived in the hotel where Chen Xiu'an and the others stayed left the most.

Many people knew very well in their hearts that they should not be able to advance, but they were still a little unwilling, or for other reasons.

Although some people left one after another, many people still waited until the final promotion list came out before leaving the capital and preparing to go back to school.

When I first came here, because the organizer cooperated directly with this hotel, the players almost occupied the hotel.

People come and go every day, most of them are contestants.

But on the day of qualifying for the semi-finals, when Chen Xiu'an and Jiang Zhi went out to eat supper nearby at night, there were obviously a lot fewer people than before.

"It's much cleaner now."

Jiang Zhi glanced at the late-night barbecue stall whose business was greatly reduced, and said.

Chen Xiuan also nodded.

"However, there are still many people having supper."

Jiang Zhi rolled her eyes.

"I don't see your appetite getting smaller."

Chen Xiu'an smiled awkwardly, and then put a bunch of grilled meat skewers into his mouth.

During the knockout round, hundreds of players had never seen anyone from the organizer.

Basically, the entire competition process is published online.

After the knockout rounds were randomly allocated to their own competition time, there were staff on site to guide them on what to do.

But after the knockout round, because the number of players was greatly reduced, Chen Xiu'an, Jiang Zhi and other players finally met the person in charge of the organizer.

On the second day of the knockout round, the organizers gathered all the contestants who had advanced to the rematch, saying that they would explain the specific rules of the rematch.

The location is the venue of the previous knockout round.

At this time, only 56 people have advanced to the semi-finals.

No one was absent, all were present.

Apart from Jiang Zhi and Lan Sha, Chen Xiu'an didn't know anyone.

Jiang Zhi said that some people looked familiar, and they should have participated in the competition last year.

But she had only seen them before and didn't remember their names.

The only person Jiang Zhi knew was a boy named Ou Chao, who was the champion of the college guitar competition last year.

Chen Xiu'an did have an impression of this person.

Because before Lan Sha and Jiang Zhi played, the opponent's votes had always been the highest in the knockout round.

It has been on the top of the website for four or five days, and Chen Xiu'an is naturally impressed by this name.

This is the time to see the real person.

But real people actually make people feel more difficult to get along with.

In the more than 20 minutes since arriving here, Chen Xiuan has not seen the expression on the other party's face change.

"All contestants from all regions of the country."

"First of all, congratulations to everyone who has successfully advanced to the semi-finals of the National College Guitar Competition."

After everyone sat down in the audience, a middle-aged man in his 40s or [-]s with a slicked back hair appeared in front of them and spoke loudly.

"First of all, let me introduce myself. My name is Zhou Yuanxiong. I am a member of the National Guitar Association, and I am also one of the directors of our college guitar competition."

"In the next rematch stage, among the 56 players present, only ten can stay."

Zhou Yuanxiong was talking on the one hand, while on the other side, the cameramen headed by Xu Shengzhi and their team were filming with several cameras.

It really gave the contestants present a feeling that everyone is recording a variety show.

Zhou Yuanxiong glanced at Xu Shengzhi and the photographers and couldn't help frowning, but he still didn't say anything more.

The cooperation with Xu Shengzhi was decided by the two presidents and several vice presidents of the Guitar Association.

Moreover, Xu Shengzhi paid the relevant licensing fees. Although he didn't like these people taking photos everywhere, he could only endure it.

"About some of the rules of our rematch, I believe everyone should have known more or less on our official website before."

"Now I will tell you the rules again. If you don't understand anything, you can ask me."

After Zhou Yuanxiong finished speaking, he began to introduce the rematch rules of the college guitar competition.

It was basically the same as what Jiang Zhi told Chen Xiu'an before.

According to the previous ranking, they were directly divided into two groups, A and B, according to the odd and even numbers.

Because Jiang Zhi was No. 1 in the knockout round and Chen Xiu'an was No. 5, the two were actually placed in the same group.

The result of this is that the two are now in a competitive relationship.

After all, only five players in each group can advance.

The number of players rented by A and rented by B is also somewhat different.Chen Xiu'an and Jiang Zhi's rent A has a total of 30 players.

There were only 26 people in Group B, four more than the opponent.

Because the number of votes is odd and there are more players with the same vote.

This led to the situation that the players of the two groups had the same number of places to advance to the finals, and the competition in Group A was much more intense.

One side is thirty into five, and the other side is 26 into five.

But regarding this point, none of the players present came out to question the fairness.

After all, this rule has actually been announced long ago.

The current situation is completely accidental and not caused by human factors.

"Next is the rules of team formation."

"There are 30 people in Group A, so there are six teams in total, and each team has five people."

"There are also six teams in Group B, each team has four players, and two teams have one more player."

"The team will be determined by drawing lots."

Zhou Yuanxiong saw that no one raised any doubts, so he continued talking.

"If there is no problem, we will start drawing lots next."

"On my left is the draw box for Group A, and to my right is for Group B."

While talking, Zhou Yuanxiong gestured for everyone to look at the two black boxes that had been placed in the middle.

The order of drawing lots was not regulated, and the contestants sitting in the auditorium drew black balls from the box one after another.

Chen Xiu'an and Jiang Zhi were drawn in tandem.

"What's yours?"

Chen Xiuan asked.

Jiang Zhi took her small ball in front of Chen Xiu'an and gave him a look.

The words "A3" are written on it.

Chen Xiu'an looked at her own, it was "A4".

Originally, I hoped that the two could be drawn into the first team, but their wish failed to come true.

The players on the scene found teammates according to the teams they drew.

After consciously dividing into groups, someone took the initiative to ask: "Excuse me, should each of our teams have a captain?"

After hearing this, Zhou Yuanxiong replied directly:
"Yes."

"Each team needs to elect a captain, which will also be beneficial for you to decide on the selection of songs in the competition."

"In order not to delay the original practice time on the selection of songs because of disagreements."

"However, regarding the selection of the captain, it is up to you to decide."

"Anyway, three days later, the semi-finals will start, and each of your teams needs to play a piece of music together."

"It also requires everyone to play a piece of music alone."

"The final rating is based on these two performances."

Chen Xiu'an originally thought that Zhou Yuanxiong would organize a meeting for each team.

Or explain more about what happened after forming the team.

But the result is not.

After drawing lots and confirming the formation of each team, Zhou Yuanxiong ended the introduction of the rules for the rematch.

Afterwards and before the competition, it is basically up to the members of each team to freely decide their next team captain, the repertoire of the ensemble, and so on.

Naturally, after the end, the members of each team naturally started a meeting to discuss.

Although everyone will still be competing in the next competition, they also need cooperation.

After all, only after cooperation can the ensemble music be performed well, which is also critical to everyone's score.

Nobody would be stupid enough to mess with this.

Although the judges scored according to everyone's performance in the chorus.

But if the entire ensemble is not good, then no matter how good one of them is, it is actually impossible to get too high a score.

Although it is inevitable that there will be people who are slowing down, the rules are like this, and everyone can't change anything. They can only think about how to better complete the next ensemble competition.

Because in fact, everyone is not very familiar with them, even if they do know people, the probability of being assigned to the same team is not high.

Just like Chen Xiu'an and Jiang Zhi, although they were in one group, they were divided into two teams.

Inevitably became a direct competitor.

However, when everyone didn't know much about the people in their team, many members of the team directly decided to let the person with the highest number of votes in the knockout round be elected as the captain.

Although this is not necessarily the best choice, it is the fastest way to get the best captain candidate.

Avoid wasting too much time on the matter of captain selection.

After all, although there are still many factors that affect the number of votes in the knockout round, it is still relatively fair and there are no major mistakes that represent the strength of the players.

The person with the highest number of votes in the knockout round will be the captain, which can also prevent some players in the team from being dissatisfied with the selected captain.

Among the six teams rented by A, the captains of four teams are determined by the number of votes won in the knockout round.

For the remaining two teams, someone volunteered to be the captain.

In fact, there is no so-called extra points for the position of captain, it can be regarded as a thankless job.

If someone is willing to come out and be able to give a reasonable reason, or make people think that you are a reliable person, no one will deliberately object.

This was the case with Chen Xiuan's team.

Originally, according to the number of votes in the knockout round, in fact, Chen Xiu'an was fifth, so the captain of the team must have left.

But before that, a girl came out and expressed her reasons for becoming the captain.

He also said that he would definitely be able to choose an ensemble piece that can bring out the strength of the six members of the team.

Chen Xiu'an originally thought that the team leader was also responsible for the music selection and rehearsal, which was quite troublesome.

Seeing that someone took the initiative to do it, I didn't intend to object.

As the contestant with the highest number of votes in the knockout round, Chen Xiu'an didn't object, and the others agreed one after another.

"After that, please give me your advice."

"Our team will definitely be the next champion of Group A!"

This girl named Chai Yamei began to give blood to the teammates of the team.

But including Chen Xiu'an, there was actually no fluctuation in his heart, and he even felt a little embarrassed and wanted to seize the house with his feet.

"come on!"

Chai Yamei clenched her fist and made a cheering gesture and said.

Chen Xiu'an and the other five people could only follow suit.

"come on."

It's just that compared to the other party's enthusiasm, the others only feel an inexplicable sense of shame.

Especially when players from other teams looked over.
