The straight man in the entertainment circle

At the end of the second round, Lin Li scored 190 points, while the others still didn't score.

It was so embarrassing, not only the contestants themselves were embarrassed, but the host and judges were also embarrassed on their behalf.

At this moment, Huang Mengting spoke again.

"I have something to say."

Huang Mengting's voice was slightly childish, but her tone was somewhat reluctant to admit defeat.

Seeing Huang Mengting talking, Qiu Tian smiled and said, "Little friend Huang Mengting, what do you have to say?"

Huang Mengting looked at Lin Li and said, "I'm still not happy. Lin Li answered the questions in the first two rounds, and we all know many of the questions."

Everyone was a little amused when they saw the unwilling look on Huang Mengting's childish face.

"The first two periods of our crossword puzzle session and the Chinese culture knowledge session are all in the form of rush answers. There is no problem, but today's session is a little special... Our next three sessions are not rush answer sessions. Everyone can use their own skills. .”

Qiu Tian tried to prove that there was nothing wrong with the format of the program. The cultural competition program had a question and answer session. The problem was with Lin Li, who was too perverted.

Lin Li smiled and said: "Kid Huang Mengting thinks that the program team takes care of me. No matter which platform I am on, I will always get the answer. I think it's unfair, don't you?"

Huang Mengting raised questions before and swapped places with Lin Li. Facts have proved that Lin Li's answering machine is not faster than others.

But in the second round, Lin Li got the right to answer 9 questions, which made the contestants suspect that the program team was behind the scenes.

So there is no problem with the answering questions on stage, but it does not prove that there is no human control behind the scenes.

After all, for a big star like Lin Li, it's impossible for the program team to come to the show without giving him some special treatment.

But Huang Mengting felt that she couldn't accept it. It was too unfair, so she was the first to jump out among so many contestants.

Huang Mengting felt more calm after Lin Li saw through her thoughts. She said, "Yes, I don't think you got so many questions because of your fast hand."

This sentence already showed that she suspected that the program team had opened a back door for Lin Li.

Lin Li was not annoyed and said, "I think you are overthinking. I just have fast hands and a quick mind."

I don't know why, but everyone didn't feel disgusted when Lin Li praised himself so seriously. Instead, they felt that he was very sincere.

Even Huang Mengting was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Since you said so, I ask for the third round to play idioms and play the idiom building block game."

The rule of the Idiom Block Game is that each player will have 24 Chinese character blocks engraved with squares placed upside down on the answering table. The players must turn over the 24 blocks in the shortest time, and then arrange them in sequence to form six idioms.

The scrambled Chinese character squares are close together with other Chinese characters. It is difficult to think of the correct answer. You must have very strong insight and familiarity with idioms. This is the second best. Many people know the answer, but the combination It takes a long time because the 24 squares are upside down and need to be turned over to observe and arrange them uniformly, which is very time-consuming.

Huang Mengting suggested playing an idiom building block game at this time. To put it bluntly, she wanted to verify whether Lin Li's statement about his fast brain and fast hand speed was true.

Because the idiom block game is a game that tests your brain and hand speed.

Zhang Xingyue listened to Huang Mengting's suggestion and felt it made sense.

If there is a building block game in the third round and Lin Li does not perform well, then some people will inevitably suspect that Lin Li's results in the first two rounds were obtained by the program team's behind-the-scenes operations.

Thinking of this, Zhang Xingyue was happy. The better Lin Li performed in the first two rounds, the higher everyone's expectations, and the more doubtful people were. If Lin Li couldn't prove himself in the third round, he wouldn't be able to stop the crowd. .

Qiu Tian looked at Liang Sheng. Liang Sheng understood that Qiu Tian could not control the current situation.

Because it was agreed that Zhang Xingyue would give the question, Huang Mengting made a suggestion at this time, seeming to take away Zhang Xingyue's right to give the question.

Liang Sheng said to Zhang Xingyue: "Zhang Xingyue, what do you think of Huang Mengting's proposal?"

Zhang Xingyue couldn't hide her happiness and said: "I was just about to say it. My third round was the idiom selection part. The question I asked happened to be this idiom building block game."

Lin Li smiled and said, "That's such a coincidence."

Everyone was a little amused when they heard the ridicule in Lin Li's words. At the same time, they also realized that Zhang Xingyue was deliberately making things difficult for Lin Li and only temporarily said that he had the same idea as Huang Mengting.

Zhang Xingyue felt happy when he heard the sarcasm in Lin Li's words, because it sounded like Lin Li lacked confidence. The program team could not interfere at all in this kind of game.

Lin Li's cowardice was what Zhang Xingyue wanted to see the most.

"In the third round, the idiom section, I chose the idiom building block game."

Zhang Xingyue ignored Lin Li's words and solemnly said this to the two hosts. The program team gave him the right to propose questions, so he naturally had to make good use of it.

Liang Sheng glanced at Lin Li and asked, "Lin Li, do you have any objections?"

These words were obviously on Lin Li's side. If Lin Li had any objections, it would be easy for Zhang Xingyue to change the topic given Liang Sheng's status in the TV station.

"I have no objection. It's fine. Come on." Lin Li said.

Seeing that Lin Li had no objection, Liang Sheng didn't say anything. The program team had ready-made props. Qiu Tian took Zhang Xingyue to the backstage prop room to choose idioms by herself, then scrambled them upside down.

With the help of the program staff, Zhang Xingyue went away for more than ten minutes before returning.

The program team found ten etiquette ladies and brought up the upside-down building blocks. The 24 building blocks were contained in a small wooden box.

These hostesses will go to the positions of the corresponding numbered contestants in the order in which they appear, and cover the boxes with building blocks on their answering tables.

"Okay, the questions for our third round of idioms have been placed in front of you. I will shout three two one later. When I finish shouting, please ask the etiquette ladies to take away the box together. Then, contestants, please use Arrange the six groups of phrases in order as quickly as possible." Liang Sheng said.

Qiu Tian added: "Contestants after arranging, please press the answer question to indicate the end of the answer. After pressing the clicker, no more blocks are allowed to be moved. Is everyone clear?"

"Clear!" the players said in unison.

This game is also featured in many programs, so everyone knows it clearly.

"Okay, please get ready, three...two...one! Start!"

Liang Sheng gave an order, and the timer began to appear on the big screen on the stage.

The etiquette ladies all acted in unison. When Liang Sheng said the beginning, they opened the box covering the building blocks.

However, at this moment, an accident occurred!

The etiquette lady in front of Lin Li took a peek at Lin Li and when she opened the box of building blocks, she didn't lift it up at all and took it sideways. As a result, all 24 building blocks on Lin Li's answering table fell to the ground!

With a crash, the blocks were scattered on the ground.

"ah!!"

The hostess screamed uncontrollably.

Everyone at the scene was stunned. Qiu Tian looked at Liang Sheng. It was obvious that something had happened to Lin Li and it had affected his game. But if it happened again, it would not be fair to other players.

Liang Sheng also hesitated a little, but Lin Li spoke first: "It doesn't matter, let's continue the game!"

When Liang Sheng heard what Lin Li said, he thought that Lin Li was so far ahead in points, it would be good to give other players a chance this time, so he said: "Everyone, keep playing!"

The other contestants were also attracted by this scene. After hearing what Liang Sheng said, they came back to their senses and started actively preparing to spell the idioms.

The etiquette lady in front of Lin Li froze in place as if she had made a mistake.

Lin Li smiled at the etiquette lady and said, "It's okay."

It was the first time that the etiquette lady had been in close contact with a so-called celebrity. She was a little distracted just now. She knew Lin Li's personality, he had a bad temper. She made a mistake, and she was really afraid that Lin Li would get angry with her in public.

Unexpectedly, Lin Li not only didn't look angry at all, but actually cared about her feelings and comforted her.

The etiquette lady felt that the world was unreal for a moment.

Lin Li took his time and looked at the blocks on the ground. The blocks were scattered all over the floor. Some of them could see the words, but some still couldn't.

The etiquette lady came to her senses and immediately knelt down, ready to pick up the blocks for Lin Li.

Lin Li said: "Don't move, I'll do it!"

Miss etiquette was stunned and didn't dare to move at all. Lin Li swept the blocks on the ground and then bent down to pick up the blocks.

The other contestants have all opened the building blocks at this time. They are looking at the building blocks in front of them and identifying which six idioms they are. Huang Mengting and the other two contestants have already begun to piece together.

At this time, Lin Li hadn't finished picking up the blocks.

"Lin Li will be at the bottom this round."

"Yeah, there's nothing we can do to save him, but I thought he was going to get angry. Unexpectedly, Lin Li doesn't seem to have such a bad temper."

"Lin Li isn't bad-tempered, he's just weird. Don't mess with him. He's easier to get in touch with than anyone else."

"It's okay. Even if he is at the bottom this round, he still has the highest points."

"I think there is a reason why Lin Li is not angry. Now he has a reason for being at the bottom."

"Yes, he wishes for this. If nothing happens, he will be questioned if he is at the bottom."

"That being said, it's really possible that Lin Liao did it on purpose."

…………

Amid the speculation and suspicion of the audience, Lin Li picked up all the blocks. After picking up the last block, he placed it on the answering table and pressed the answering machine!
