No wonder the director suddenly said that this person had to extend the interview time and ask a few more key questions...
With this appearance, even if he just sits there and doesn't move, the ratings and broadcast volume will not be low.
She perked up, opened the book in her hand, and said with a smile:
"So, first question."
"What do you think of Xue Jing's success in qualifying for the U19 finals?"
Xue Jing tilted his head: "This isn't that difficult, is it? What do you think?"
He spoke the truth, and the director in the studio backstage was cheered up.
Generally speaking, because the overall atmosphere in China is conservative and modest, in order to please the majority of the audience and not attract black fans, professional martial artists will be extremely cautious and modest when speaking in interviews at the request of their own clubs and agencies.
There are very few contestants who speak so 'straightforwardly'.
Once this kind of player appears, it means that traffic is coming!
Regardless of whether his remarks are contradicted by facts afterwards, or he proves that he does have the ability to speak so boldly, it will arouse the audience's emotions and generate attention to this contestant.
The director immediately pinched the microphone next to his mouth and whispered:
"Ask him a few more questions..."
In the interview room, the female employee listened to the instructions coming from the headset, looked at Xue Jing, and said with a smile:
"Second question, contestant Xue Jing, among the contestants participating in the finals this time, are there any contestants that you need to pay special attention to?"
Xue Jing probably understood that the organizers wanted him to say something harsh, intentionally or unintentionally. Logically speaking, he should say something humble at this time to leave himself a way out.
However, he didn't make a living by playing professional games, so he didn't care about this at all, and he didn't think it was necessary to leave a way out, so he didn't bother to pretend and just said:
"There's no one that needs special attention, they all feel the same."
The female employee's eyes lit up: "Hey... For example, what about contestant Zhou Yinglin? Don't we need to pay attention to him?"
"Who is Zhou Yinglin?"
"Hehe... What about contestant Song Nanxing?"
"Ah? Is there such a person?"
…
As the interview progressed, Xue Jing kept making some very "explosive" remarks, which stimulated the eyes of the staff present to light up.
The ratings and playback volume are going to explode this time!
Good-looking, good at fighting, and good at handling things, who else would be popular if not him!
"… Then, the tenth question, does contestant Xue Jing have a girlfriend now?"
The female employee said with some anticipation in her eyes.
Xue Jing gave her a strange look.
"Can you ask me something more meaningful... By the way, does this interview have to last that long?"
The female employee quickly looked at the notebook in her hand and apologized, "Sorry, there are only a few questions left. We will be done soon."
"So does contestant Xue Jing have a girlfriend?"
Xue Jing said speechlessly: "What do you think? I have no comment."
The female employee sighed and said with a slightly annoyed tone: "I think this is a question that the audience is very concerned about, so I will answer it directly..."
Xue Jing crossed his arms, leaned back, snorted without any expression, and said casually: "Then there are, there are quite a few."
"Eh... so perfunctory."
The female employee said with dissatisfaction that she felt Xue Jing's remarks were just perfunctory and casual.
After asking a few more questions in Xue Jing's gradually impatient look.
“… This is the last question. It really is the last one.”
Under Xue Jing's gaze, the female employee felt an inexplicable pressure that made her heart pound and her scalp tingle.
"Contestant Xue Jing... do you have anything to say to the other contestants?"
Hearing this, Xue Jing thought for a moment, stood up from his chair, and walked outside slowly.
All the camera lenses in the interview room followed his footsteps.
"There is an old Egyptian saying - 'Only two animals can reach the top of the pyramid, one is an eagle and the other is a snail.'"
Xue Jing said softly.
"Don't lose heart, you still have a chance to catch up with me, come on."
As he spoke, he opened the door and walked out of the interview room.
There was silence at the scene, and all the staff were stunned.
"What does he... mean?"
"Shit, I get it, he's saying he's the eagle and the other contestants are snails!"
"Fuck, this is too crazy, love it!"
"I'm convinced, I'm really convinced. I don't know if this contestant Xue Jing can win the championship, but his level of pretentiousness is definitely the best among all the contestants in this session!"
"He was obviously pretending, but he actually said it as if it were encouragement... It's ridiculous."
The scene was noisy and the staff were discussing excitedly.
The director even slid on his knees in the studio to celebrate.
This is definitely a famous quote and scene, the ratings are sure to explode!
…
"Xiao Jing, that's great!"
Jiang Siwei hugged Xue Jing excitedly and gave him a facial cleanser set.
"That's great! Now the attention of the entire finals will be largely on you. You were born to do this. That's great!"
Xue Jing first reached out to calm the angry cat, then gently pushed Jiang Siwei away and said:
"I'm just telling the truth."
Except for the time when he asked "Who is Zhou Yinglin" with the intention of disgusting Zhou Yinglin, his answers to other interview questions were completely based on his inner thoughts, without any intention of sensationalism.
The last sentence of "encouragement" to all the contestants was also spoken on a whim.
For other people, being on the same stage and in the same era as someone like him must be a bit hopeless.
Although Xue Jing did not feel guilty, he still had some sympathy for these people... That's why he said these words to encourage them.
Of course, he also understood that these remarks would cause many people to misunderstand in the short term... but he never cared.
I am so tough that I don’t have to rely on this business for a living. I don’t have to worry about things like popularity among the public.
"Mr. Xue."
At the door of the studio, Mika Suzuka stood there elegantly and smiled softly at Xue Jing who was walking towards the door.
He has a straight figure and handsome appearance. People passing by, regardless of gender, will be more or less attracted to him and their eyes will stay on him for a long time.
Xue Jing nodded at him and greeted him, "Suzuka-san."
"Mr. Xue, your speech just now was brilliant."
Ogisuzuka exclaimed in praise.
“The eagle and the snail are a perfect metaphor. Those who can achieve great things in this world are either geniuses with extraordinary talents or hard workers who never compromise. The rest are mostly half-baked and have the hardest time achieving anything.”
"It may be difficult for these people to understand the meaning of your words for the time being... But after a long time, when they understand and appreciate the value of these words, they will definitely thank you."
Mika Suzuka spoke softly, and the look she gave Xue Jing was almost affectionate.
Xue Jing moved the corners of his mouth, got goose bumps, waved his hand, and said:
"This is what the Egyptians say, I just moved it here... Okay, the game will start soon, see you later."
Mika Suzuka chuckled and said, "I'm looking forward to Xue-kun's performance."
After leaving the studio, Xue Jing asked Jiang Siwei who was following him:
"Sister Wei, how long will it take for the game to start?"
He is contestant No. 1 and will play in the first game. His opponent is contestant No. 2 Yin Muhu.
Jiang Siwei quickly glanced at her watch and replied, "About an hour and a half."
"I know where Xiaoyin's lounge is. There's still some time before the game. Do you want to go see her?"
Jiang Siwei suggested.
Xue Jing heard this, thought for a moment, and said softly:
"No, it's not a good idea to disturb her now. Let's just go back to the lounge and get ready."
Jiang Siwei had no objection, nodded, and said, "Okay."
After returning to the lounge, Xue Jing took out the Green Rubik's Cube from his pocket.
This time, he simply twisted one of the steps of the Rubik's Cube with one hand and threw it into the air.
A wormhole-like vortex of green light appeared in the air, and Xue Jing reached into it and slowly pulled out the Forgotten Giant Sword.
He held the huge sword in one hand and danced a spinning sword flower in the air, stirring up a huge airflow that blew away all the light objects in the lounge.
"If you hit her with this... wouldn't that be too much?"
Maomao spoke a little worriedly.
Xue Jing held the hilt of the sword and gently placed the blade of the giant sword on the ground.
Even so, a heavy "bang" was still heard the moment it touched the ground.
Xue Jing smiled and said, "Sister Yin said she wanted to give me a surprise, so I can't neglect her."
…
Chapter 229: Otogi Suzuka has a strange affection for me. Please welcome Xue Jing to the stage! (4K)
Time passes by minute by minute, and the start time of the U19 finals is getting closer and closer.
In the players' lounge, Yin Muhu, wearing training clothes, sat cross-legged on the ground, with his hands as big as casserole pots placed flat on his knees.
On his muscular face, one can vaguely see the feminine features of a woman. His waist-length hair is not bound up at all and falls straight to the ground.
At this moment, wisps of white steam were steaming from her whole body, curling up, and the temperature of the entire player lounge continued to rise.
As time went by, I don’t know if it was an illusion, but her majestic body seemed to have shrunk a little.
…
In a spacious gym backstage at the arena, Xue Jing was holding the Forgotten Greatsword in both hands, swinging it again and again, cultivating his compatibility with this heavyweight weapon.
[Weapon Strike] He had reached Lv10, and just like when he was practicing with the spear, his extremely strong sword skills radiated to the realm of the 'great sword' at an abnormally terrifying speed.
Every second, with every swing of his sword, his mastery and proficiency in the giant sword in his hand were rapidly increasing.
"call-"
The sword was too huge and heavy, and with every swing it would stir up a terrifying airflow, causing a strong wind throughout the entire gym.
Not far from Xue Jing, Ning Yuantai was squatting on a barbell rack, idly watching videos on his bracelet.
Suddenly, Ning Yuantai raised his eyebrows:
"Oh? The pre-match interview is starting."
He gestured in the air a few times, and a light blue halo suddenly shone from the bracelet, forming a holographic video image in the air.
Ning Yuantai opened his hands to both sides, and the holographic video immediately expanded, turning into a large screen three meters long and two meters high.
Xue Jing just turned his head slightly and glanced at him, without paying much attention, and continued to swing the giant sword in his hand to warm up.
"Hello everyone, I am the U19 contestant, Wei Junwu..."
