Whether in the live broadcast room or the people present, everyone's eyes were on the big screen, waiting for the final situation.

Zhu Jin's expression did not change at all. She looked at the big screen, waiting for her final score to come.

She actually had no idea, after all, there are a hundred Hamlets in the hearts of a hundred readers.

Zhu Jin doesn’t care about the actual score, she just wants to know whether her design will be popular with everyone and what everyone thinks of the design.

She actually hoped that the ratings would appear sooner so that she could use her phone to check out the online reviews.

"There is only one minute left. Audience members who have not yet voted need to speed up," said the host.

Everyone's eyes were focused on the big screen, and no one cared what the people next to them said. Zhu Jin's score had reached 91 points.

She has a good chance of tying with Harris for first place.

If this is the case, Zhu Jin will become the first Mallow Award contestant to win first place three times in a row.

This will also be the first in history.

I don’t know if it’s a psychological effect, but everyone feels that the numbers on the screen are jumping extremely slowly, so slowly that you don’t even dare to blink, for fear that you will miss this historic moment.

The next second, the numbers jumped.

90!

This was a number that was beyond everyone's expectations. No one expected it to get stuck at this score.

The barrage of comments in the live broadcast room popped up again after a moment of freeze.

"Hahaha, I told you, she got first place just because she was lucky. Now after the comprehensive evaluation of the two items, whoever doesn't get first place is a clown, okay?"

"Anyway, I always thought it was ridiculous that she could get first place. How could so many excellent designers not be better than her? I remember investigating and she also joined the Huo Group this year, right?"

"Doesn't this further prove that she actually bribed the referee before? That's why the referee didn't dare to give more points this time."

Rhythmic words scroll across the barrage.

Huo Jingcheng frowned slightly, and Assistant Chen immediately stood up to give instructions.

When Assistant Chen came back, Huo Jingcheng said calmly, "I don't want this kind of rumor to appear in a large live broadcast room. If it happens again, keep the evidence and call the police."

Assistant Chen nodded repeatedly in agreement.

Just when everyone was wondering whether Zhu Jin's score could verify that there was indeed inside information in the judges' scores in her previous two competitions, a new situation suddenly occurred at the competition site.

The organizing committee received a real-name complaint.

An old designer who withdrew from the competition this year due to health reasons filed a complaint under his real name against the eighth place.

The old designer spoke in an urgent voice, with a hoarse tone from a heavy cough.

"How dare you use my design draft as a competition entry?"

"Have you forgotten what I told you when I accepted you as my apprentice?"

"I told you to be sincere and know that design is your own business, not someone else's." The old designer coughed violently as he spoke, "Why can't you learn it! If I wasn't watching the game, would you have just brushed it off? No wonder you kept asking me to rest and not watch the game. I thought you had grown up and become sensible, but now I know you didn't want me to see this!"

The old designer sighed, "After telling a lie, you have to lie countless times to cover it up. Don't you understand this little truth?"

The designer who was condemned looked ashamed.

He knelt down on the spot with a plop. "Teacher, I was wrong. Teacher, I really know I was wrong. I, I shouldn't have thought of taking shortcuts."

Everyone looked at each other, no one knew whether they should step forward and help the man up.

"In fact, with your own design, you can also enter the final competition. Why do you have to go down this road of no return?" The old designer sighed, "I have nothing to say to you. You can handle this matter yourself."

After saying that, the old designer hung up the phone.

Everyone looked at each other, and even the organizing committee didn't know how to deal with this matter.

Although this designer's subsequent designs for the competition were all his own, the design he used when he initially registered was directly from his teacher.

After all, the Hibiscus Award actually mainly looks at the candidates put forward by the group, not the design of the registration.

This is also a first for the organizing committee.

No one knows whether or not to disqualify the other party.

If it is cancelled, it doesn't seem fair to the other party, after all, they will participate in the subsequent competitions by themselves.

But if it is not cancelled, it seems unfair to other contestants.

"Um, this is the last spot for today, and we will announce it on the official website later." The host and the organizing committee in the audience exchanged glances and quickly made a simple change to the words they had prepared.

The organizing committee needs to hold a separate meeting before making a decision on this matter.

"Sorry, I want to withdraw from this competition."

At the last second before the live broadcast was cut off, the designer kneeling on the ground said, "I lied when I first entered the competition. So, I'm sorry, I don't think I deserve the award this time, and I don't deserve to enter the finals."

"I voluntarily withdraw from this competition and will apologize online to the competition team, all the contestants and judges. I will explain the situation and I will also sincerely apologize to my teacher. I am very sorry to her."

The designer stood up and bowed deeply to everyone.

"This..." This was the first time the host encountered such a situation.

The live broadcast was cut off just now, so what the designer said later was not captured.

The people at the scene didn’t know how to handle the situation, and the internet was in turmoil again.

"Send someone to stop him first. We will publish the details of the follow-up on the official website." The head of the organizing committee immediately gave the order. "By the way, did any other camera capture his conversation just now?"

"Yes, yes. There's a spare one here, and it hasn't been turned off yet." The photographer from the camera crew raised his hand.

The person in charge ordered, "Save the video just now."

After explaining how to deal with the matter, the person in charge bowed and apologized to everyone, "Sorry. We didn't handle this matter well. We will deal with it as soon as possible. Everyone go back and have a rest. For the follow-up handling situation, everyone can pay attention to the official website. Similarly, we will send you a separate message."

The person in charge bowed deeply.

The top seven were naturally not nervous, after all, whether that person withdrew from the competition or not had nothing to do with them.

But Huo Anan, who was sitting in the candidate room, stood up.

She is number 11.

If that player withdraws and moves up one place in the ranking, I will have a great chance!

However, the organizing committee itself is not familiar with it.

Huo Anan bit her lower lip, thinking about how to solve this problem.
