Chapter 585 - We Support Luo Jie!
Under the stage, as Director Li Huawen saw that the third place was announced, he quickly asked the assistant director, “How’re the ratings?”
Now they were literally announcing the top three!
Whether the ratings could exceed 8% or not depended on the announcement of the top three.
“The ratings have already soared to 7.7%!”
The assistant director quickly replied, “The ratings increased by 0.2%. Although they didn’t increase too much, they’re still rising.”
“Okay.” Director Li Huawen took a deep breath.
He had never been so nervous in his life.
The more nervous he was, the more expectant he became. His desire to see the ratings exceed 8% had reached an unprecedented level.
Now he could only watch and do nothing.
At this moment, it was already the section of interview and speech on the stage.
“I thought I could beat Fang Qiu.” After watching the video, Gu Shaoyu accepted the host’s interview and said, “I knew that he had seen 1050 patients. In this case, I once thought I could definitely beat him, but I didn’t expect this.”
Gu Shaoyu shook his head with a smile and turned to look at Fang Qiu and Luo Jie, who might be ranked the first and the second. Then he said to Luo Jie, “Come on, you must beat him!”
Luo Jie shook his head with a wry smile.
The audience on the spot and those who were watching TV also laughed.
In their eyes, this game had changed from Running Fast to Fighting the Landlord.
They thought that Fang Qiu would get off the stage first at a speed that everyone couldn’t believe and got the tenth place in the Young Chinese Medicine Doctor. However, Fang Qiu didn’t get off the stage. Instead, eight of the other nine people left.
This was simply like a game in which Fang Qiu was the landlord and the rest of them were fighting against him. And now it turned out to be Fang Qiu fighting against all of them.
No one could be sure about the result yet.
After all, the show was not over yet.
In the end, would the landlord be defeated or win the battle?
Everyone was really looking forward to it.
The host took the hand card and was ready to announce the final place.
Under the stage, everyone held their breath and waited for the final answer.
Sitting in the first row, Jiang Miaoyu unconsciously clenched her fists and said to herself, “Fang Qiu, come on! Come on!”
At Fang Qiu’s house, all the relatives and friends became nervous.
Fang Qiu’s parents were so nervous that they held each other’s hands and stared at the TV.
At Holy Doctor Chu’s house, Xu Miaolin, who used to be extremely relaxed, also sat up straight nervously. Chu Yunyun, who was next to him, held his arm with hers and took a deep breath nervously.
That was it. The show was coming to an end!
Holy Doctor Chu also sat up straight. Although he was not nervous, he began to look straight at Fang Qiu.
Before that, he thought Fang Qiu was not bad, but he didn’t expect that Fang Qiu would actually be so powerful that he had fought with his disciple all the way here.
He was well aware of the strength of his disciple. Fang Qiu had never lost to him in a duel, and he was even more powerful than Luo Jie, which made Holy Doctor Chu feel that Fang Qiu was not a simple guy.
This was all that he thought before.
What really made Holy Doctor Chu take Fang Qiu seriously was Gu Shaoyu’s words.
1050 patients!
Fang Qiu actually saw 1050 patients in three days, which was three or four times more than those of the others!
In this case, his curing rate could still help him make it to the top two.
This was not ordinary!
If Luo Jie was allowed to see 1050 patients within three days, could he make it into the top two?
At the University of Jiangjing Chinese Medicine. “Fang Qiu, Fang Qiu, Fang Qiu…”
The students gathered to watch the live broadcast and spontaneously began to cheer for Fang Qiu. Although Fang Qiu couldn’t hear them, they just wanted to shout for him!
At the Jingbei University of Chinese Medicine, Jiang Mengjie smiled slightly and didn’t seem too nervous. Her eyes were fixed on the TV screen. She looked at Fang Qiu’s face, which she couldn’t be more familiar with and murmured, “You haven’t lost to anyone before, except for me. It’ll be the same this time.”
Meanwhile, Fang Qiu’s fans and all the people who knew him were extremely looking forward to the final result.
Not only Fang Qiu’s fans and those who supported him but also Li Canming, the postdoc who returned from the United States, and those black-hearted drug producers who had just been exposed by Fang Qiu, were all focusing on this last moment.
Li Canming and those black-hearted drug producers had always hoped that Fang Qiu could lose.
They were disappointed again and again from the tenth place to the third place.
They could only hope that Fang Qiu wouldn’t be the champion.
It seemed that only when Fang Qiu lost could they feel comfortable eventually!
On the stage, the host opened his mouth and shouted, “Well, I’ll announce it. Fang Qiu!”
Upon hearing that, many people were stunned.
Why did he directly call Fang Qiu?
According to the process before, was Fang Qiu in second place?
The audience didn’t dare to speak. They all stared at the host on the stage, for fear of missing anything.
It was the same with all the viewers who were watching the live broadcast.
Everyone thought that Fang Qiu was in second place!
But right at this moment, the host suddenly smirked and said, “Ha-ha. Luo Jie, you guys come on the stage together.”
Everyone was speechless.
“What the f*ck. Is the host crazy? Why did he speak so slowly?”
“Is he hosting a rap battle? Why did he stop in the middle of the sentence?”
“Damn it, I was scared to death. I thought Fang Qiu was in second place.”
“He’s so good at playing tricks!”
Netizens started to complain.
Fang Qiu and Luo Jie looked at each other and stepped onto the stage at the same time.
“Alright, the two of you, come and stand on my left and right sides.”
As the host spoke, he arranged Fang Qiu to stand on his left and Luo Jie to stand on his right.
As soon as they were in place, it immediately led people to discuss it again.
“There’s no need to watch anymore. Fang Qiu is definitely in second place.”
“Who said that?”
“Why do you have to say that Fang Qiu is in second place?”
“According to my observation, the host is not left-handed and is used to using his right hand. Generally, when the host announces the champion, he will raise the hand of the winner symbolically. Now the host deliberately arranged Luo Jie on his right, doesn’t it mean that he wants to raise Luo Jie’s hand smoothly?”
“First of all, let me interview the two of you.”
After arranging the positions, the host smiled, looked at Fang Qiu, and then at Luo Jie. He asked, “Who do you think will be the winner?”
The audience curled their lips in disdain.
In their eyes, this interview was so official that the official interview would definitely have official answers. In the face of this kind of question, the two of them would definitely be modest. This was the pattern of a variety show.
After all, they had already reached this far, which meant that they had already won!
In everyone’s eyes, the two of them would definitely say something like “I don’t mind. Even if I can’t be the winner, I feel really satisfied because I’ve come this far.” Something like that.
However, just when everyone felt bored, the two of them spoke at the same time.
“Me!” the two answered in unison at the same time.
Not to mention the audience, even the host was stunned.
“You two really have a tacit understanding.”
The host looked at them in surprise and said, “It seems that neither of you will give in!”
Meanwhile, the audience who had just got bored all laughed.
However, they weren’t laughing at the tension between them.
Instead, they laughed at the host, for he was stunned for a second just now!
From the beginning of the Young Chinese Medicine Doctor to now, the host’s performance had always been very perfect. Unexpectedly, in the last episode’s live broadcast, Fang Qiu and Luo Jie tricked him and added a small stroke to his perfect hosting career.
Although it was just a small accident, this was enough to make the audience laugh.
Except for the host who froze, all the audience didn’t expect that Fang Qiu and Luo Jie would be so straightforward that they didn’t mean to be modest at all.
This was what a competition should be like!
This was interesting!
This was great!
“Well, our two candidates for the champion position have already taken a stand. Then what about the other top ten contestants in the country?”
The host changed the subject and turned to the eight people who had stepped down the stage.
Under the guidance of the host, everyone also began to be curious. Who would these eight people support?
“First of all, Yang Chenxiang, the tenth place of the competition.”
The host looked at Yang Chenxiang and asked, “Who do you support?”
“Go for it, Luo Jie!” Yang Chenxiang took the microphone and immediately called out Luo Jie’s name.
Everyone was stunned.
After the 11 episodes of the show, Yang Chenxiang had almost no connection with Luo Jie. Fang Qiu was the one that took the initiative to lead everyone to stand up and hug him. How could he not support Fang Qiu but support Luo Jie?
“That’s unexpected.”
The host also asked curiously, “Why do you support Luo Jie? Why don’t you support Fang Qiu?”
“Leave this question to the other seven people.”
Yang Chenxiang grinned and handed the microphone to Chen Ziju, who was in ninth place.
“I support Luo Jie,” Chen Ziju said with a smile.
Then there were Wang Shijie and Lin Dan.
Four people in a row all supported Luo Jie.
This made everyone even more confused.
Did Fang Qiu do something wrong to them that made them hate him so much?
“I support Fang Qiu.” Just when everyone was confused, a different voice appeared.
The one who spoke was Jiang Miaoyu, who had won the sixth place.
However, this didn’t seem to be beyond everyone’s expectations. After all, Jiang Miaoyu and Fang Qiu were from the same school. And the news of Fang Qiu and Jiang Miaoyu’s relationship had long been spread on the Internet. It would be strange if Jiang Miaoyu didn’t support Fang Qiu.
Li Sanxiao and Leng Wenzhuo also supported Luo Jie.
“Let’s do it this way.” When the microphone was handed to Gu Shaoyu, the host suddenly said, “This question will be answered by Gu Shaoyu, the third place of the Young Chinese Medicine Doctor. Tell us why you all support Luo Jie.”
As he heard that, Gu Shaoyu immediately said with a smile, “Because we’re pissed off by Fang Qiu. This guy has surpassed us in 11 episodes. In the last episode, no matter what we do, we have to vent our anger. Luo Jie, we support you. You have to defeat Fang Qiu!”
As he finished, the audience burst into laughter.
Even the host couldn’t help laughing.
Obviously, Gu Shaoyu was joking, but this joke was serious.
He was right. Fang Qiu had already crashed them in 11 episodes. They really wanted to defeat him!
The host then looked at the others.
The others all nodded, which made the netizens also burst into laughter this time!
