43: What's the point of appearing too early and crushing everyone else?

"Hey, you guys up front, what are you doing here? This is the venue for the University rocket model Making Competition. Unauthorized personnel are not allowed!"

Su Yu, with his sharp eyes, immediately spotted the official broadcast team for the competition after interviewing another team of university contestants who had just entered.

He strode forward, his face serious, and questioned them.

The staff of the official broadcast team were dumbfounded.

This... they were invited to broadcast the competition, so how did they become unauthorized personnel?

Then, then should I leave?

Seeing the other party stammering, wanting to speak but turning red-faced from being choked up, Su Yu felt he had caught the right people!

Hmph, as expected, spies had snuck in from outside. Fortunately, he discovered them in advance!

Otherwise, once the competition started, if they interfered with the process midway, the trouble would be immense.

"Where are the organizers' staff? Come over quickly!"

"There are people here impersonating a film crew trying to sneak into the competition venue. Hurry and kick them out!"

As a war correspondent, Su Yu, adhering to his principles of fairness and justice, immediately sought out the organizers to prepare to expel them.

It was only then that the organizers' staff finally couldn't stand it anymore and hurried forward to clarify.

"Teacher Su Yu, they are the official broadcast team for our competition."

"Thank you for starting the broadcast early to promote our competition and attract popularity. Teacher, the competition is about to begin. How about you return to your contestant position to prepare for the drawing?"

Su Yu was stunned when he heard this, then he finally understood.

He quickly grinned at the group he had just questioned.

"Oh, oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. So you're the official broadcast team. What a misunderstanding!"

"Alright then, since the competition is about to start, we'll return to our positions."

"Brother, remember to give us more screen time later!"

Before leaving, Su Yu didn't forget to walk over to the bewildered official broadcast team, pat them on the shoulder, and say gratefully.

"Pfft hahahaha, the Streamer is too amazing. He even confused the official broadcast team. I suggest the Streamer change careers directly. Why be a contestant? Isn't live broadcasting more appealing?"

"You didn't see it, the official broadcast team almost doubted their lives. If the organizers' staff hadn't come out to explain, they might have really been fooled and left by the Streamer."

"Oh my, after watching for so long, I almost forgot that the Streamer's identity is a contestant in this competition!"

"Other university contestants are called 'students,' but didn't you hear what the organizers' staff called the Streamer? It was 'Teacher Su Yu'! This is my first time seeing organizers being so polite to a contestant."

"The competition is finally about to begin. I've already prepared melon seeds, peanuts, and iced cola, just waiting for the Streamer to crush these so-called elite students from famous universities."

In the live broadcast room, fans were full of anticipation.

That was just an appetizer; the main event was yet to come!

Nine o'clock sharp.

As the competition venue was cleared.

Apart from the contestants and the on-site judges, all other unauthorized personnel had left and moved to the audience seats.

The dozen or so judges invited for this competition were renowned professors and mentors from various major universities, as well as professional engineers from the national aerospace research institute, all at least at the level of Professor Tang Zhenggang.

It could be said that this group of people, gathered together, would even be enough to support a small aerospace research project.

"First, welcome to all the teachers attending this competition!"

"Thank you for taking time out of your busy schedules to participate in the review and final scoring of this competition."

"At the same time, we also welcome all the university students who have come to participate in this competition!"

"As the first National University rocket model Making Competition, this competition holds significant value! All universities that rank in the top five will receive research and experimental funding ranging from 200,000 to 2 million yuan!"

"The top three university teams will have the opportunity to enter the National Aerospace Research Center for study and observation!"

"Students who perform exceptionally well will receive a special invitation to directly join the National Aerospace Research Center to participate in subsequent work and research."

"Therefore, I hope that all students participating in this competition can perform at their best and demonstrate the level expected of our prestigious universities!"

The Host introduced the guests while explaining the significance of the competition.

Below the stage, the university students were incredibly excited to hear the Host's words! This was a great opportunity to bring honor to their alma mater and also to secure their own future!

One must know that it was the National Aerospace Research Center; those who could enter it were all top talents from elite institutions.

As long as they could get in, their future prospects would be bright.

Su Yu, however, was indifferent to this.

But he glanced at Tang Tian and Tang Xiaoyuan standing beside him.

Tang Xiaoyuan's reaction was similar to his; she didn't even lift her head when she heard the news, still giggling and engrossed in commanding the barrage of comments in the live broadcast room.

Although Tang Tian was holding the camera, the longing in her eyes was hard to conceal.

"This competition will proceed according to four stages, based on the rules."

"First, the electronic lottery table on the rostrum will display the drawing order. Universities that are drawn must complete their rocket model test launch preparations within three minutes."

"Before the model test launch, there will be a one-minute model display! At the same time, the creator can briefly introduce the main technical direction of their rocket model."

"After the introduction, the model test launch will be demonstrated."

"After the test launch, the on-site mentor judges will give real-time scores."

"The final scores will be announced uniformly after all universities have completed their competition."

"Has everyone understood?"

After the Host finished explaining the competition rules, he asked.

"Understood!"

All contestants answered in unison.

"Then, I announce that the First National University rocket model Making Competition officially begins!"

With the Host's command, the lottery wheel on the rostrum began to spin rapidly.

1st Place: University of Science and Technology (one team)

2nd Place: Nankai University (three teams)

3rd Place: Huagong University (one team)

... 8th Place: Qingbei University (two teams)

After all the lottery display orders were announced, Su Yu's live broadcast room was filled with sighs.

"Damn it, there are only twelve competing teams in total, how did Qingbei University get drawn for 8th place! Then we'll have to wait a long time to see the Streamer's rocket model."

"Disperse, disperse, it's boring. I'll just come back and watch in two hours."

"I'm here to watch the Streamer, not anyone else!"

"Thinking about it, it's not bad. The Streamer and their team will demonstrate later. What's the point if they appear too early and crush everyone else?"

"Exactly, exactly, no comparison means no harm, okay? Let's first see the level of other universities, and then it'll be even more satisfying for the Streamer to crush them in the end, right?"
