Chapter 134 Announcement of Voting Results
This further convinced him that the outcome was entirely fair and just.
The program resumed after a short commercial break, and the atmosphere on set remained tense and delicate.
Ji Zimu's fans were not appeased by the interruption of the advertisement. They gathered on one side of the stage, holding up support signs and banners, their faces full of doubt about the result.
Qi Shao returned to the stage, his voice tinged with seriousness: "Thank you for your understanding and support. Now we will continue the program."
As soon as he finished speaking, Ji Zimu's fans raised up their placards and phones, questioning the production team.
A fan representative stepped forward, wearing a T-shirt with Ji Zimu's image printed on it, and said to Qi Shao with a serious expression, "We demand the truth!"
"Zi Mu's strength is obvious to all, so why is he ranked second? There must be something fishy going on behind the scenes!"
Another fan shouted, "We demand a reasonable explanation! We don't believe this is a fair result!"
Their voices were filled with support for their idols and skepticism towards the show.
Qi Shao nodded, indicating that he understood the fans' concerns.
He heard backstage voices through his earpiece and quickly confirmed with Xia He again.
He then turned to the audience again, his tone tinged with apology: "First of all, I want to thank everyone for your attention and support for the show. We understand your feelings and believe that Ji Zimu's performance was excellent."
He continued, "But please believe that our voting system is fair, and there are no shady dealings or online trolls involved."
"After careful verification, Jiang Songchu did indeed receive one more vote than Ji Zimu."
Qi Shao's voice carried a hint of drama. He paused, and the atmosphere became even more tense.
"Yes, you heard right, just one more vote."
Qi Shao continued, his voice carrying a hint of certainty and determination.
"This shows that Jiang Songchu's performance has won the audience's recognition and support. Her talent and hard work have been recognized by everyone."
Jiang Songchu sat in the contestant's seat, and all eyes were on her. Some were supportive, some were skeptical, some were disdainful, and some were encouraging. Jiang Songchu confidently raised her head and let everyone look at her without blushing or panting.
In an attempt to quell the fans' anger, Xia He retrieved the data backstage and returned to the stage.
Holding a printed vote count sheet, he announced loudly, "To prove our impartiality, I will now announce the final vote count for everyone."
Then, the big screen displayed everyone's votes, and everyone could clearly see that Jiang Songchu's votes were indeed only one more than Ji Zimu's.
To ensure fairness, the production team decided to release some of the vote details.
The big screen displayed a comparison of the two candidates' votes: Jiang Songchu had 123,456 votes, while Ji Zimu had 123,455 votes.
The real-time vote count was also released, proving that Jiang Songchu's votes were genuine and valid.
As soon as the staff made the announcement, the scene erupted in an uproar.
This result devastated Ji Zimu's fans, who were furious that they were a second too slow and missed casting a vote.
Qi Shao seized the opportunity to continue explaining: "The results of this selection are entirely based on fan votes and judges' scores, and every vote is crucial."
"Jiang Songchu's ability to win first place is inseparable from her own efforts and the support of her fans."
"We hope everyone can respect the results and continue to support their favorite players."
After the production team patiently explained and the vote count was made public, the fans' emotions gradually calmed down.
They began to realize that the results of this selection were not the result of any shady dealings, but rather the product of fair competition.
Although Ji Zimu did not win first place, his strength and talent were still recognized by everyone.
Jiang Songchu's fans cheered and were extremely proud of her victory.
In this controversy, Jiang Songchu's name and abilities have gained more attention and recognition.
As Qi Shao announced that the show would continue, the atmosphere in the room became lively again.
The second round of team formation began, and due to the earlier incident, everyone was surprised to find that there were a great many amateur contestants willing to choose Jiang Songchu.
They were impressed by Jiang Songchu's outstanding performance in the first round and all hoped to join her team.
Even You Qin, the belly dancer, did not choose to become a team leader, but instead volunteered to join Jiang Songchu's team.
Jiang Songchu stood in the center of the stage, smiling as she accepted the contestants' requests to join.
Her teammates warmly welcomed the new member, and everyone introduced themselves to each other in a very harmonious atmosphere.
You Qin walked up to Jiang Songchu and said with a smile, "Songchu, you did a fantastic job! I believe that with you, we can go even further!"
"Thank you for your trust. I will do my best to lead everyone in creating the most wonderful dance."
Jiang Songchu seemed somewhat surprised by the sudden surge of interest, but quickly accepted everyone's trust with humility.
Other teams were also busy forming groups, with players choosing different teams based on their preferences and trust in their team leaders.
Soon, ten teams were formed, and everyone was eager to begin the next challenge.
After completing the free creation task and team formation based on the contestants' reactions, the contestants were looking forward to the announcement of the dance content, but unexpectedly received a rare smile and a simple yet challenging statement.
"The second round is free creation. There are no other requirements, only one—speed!"
"Because we are going to do the second round of recording tomorrow, we only have today... oh no, half a day left for everyone."
As soon as Qi Shao finished speaking, the contestants erupted in an uproar. Some were surprised, some were anxious, but most quickly plunged into a tense discussion.
"Half a day? How is that possible!" one contestant exclaimed.
But soon, his companions brought him back to reality, and they began to brainstorm and discuss how to create a novel and wonderful dance within a limited time.
After a tense discussion and decision-making process, Qi Shao announced the end of the program recording.
However, since there is still filming tomorrow, the production team thoughtfully provided ten practice rooms so that each team can make the most of their time to practice.
Each team went to the practice room to discuss and practice as soon as possible.
The practice room was brightly lit, and the contestants were fully immersed in the creation and rehearsal of their dances.
They put in tremendous effort and sweat to deliver the best performance in a short period of time.
Some teams stayed up all night searching for the perfect harmony; others practiced repeatedly to refine their moves; and still others argued endlessly over creative differences.
