Chapter 890: Chapter 890: Unfit to Be a Judge
"At that time, the disadvantages should all lie with Zhuang Mingyan. Because the interruption of the competition makes Ye Fei, who originally holds the position of a victim, also affected, there will be disadvantages for her."
"At that time, public opinion will be hard to manipulate." Zhao Gushen said in a deep voice.
"The purpose of having the judges seal their scores is to prevent unsanctioned changes in scoring." Zhao Gushen said, "Interrupting the competition loses its necessity if we don’t change the scores. But if we do change them, it loses its original sense of fairness."
"Moreover, it becomes us influencing the judges’ scores." Zhao Gushen said, "This is disadvantageous to both Ye Fei and the Changping Competition."
They were initially the victimized party, which would earn public sympathy.
He too wanted to immediately interrupt the competition and have the judges rescore, but that would only have a counterproductive effect.
He knew at this point, doing nothing was the most advantageous course.
Yet no matter how advantageous, it couldn’t change the injustice Ye Fei suffered.
Ye Fei’s heart indeed felt far less calm than she appeared externally.
She wasn’t feeling wronged, she was simply angry.
Ye Fei felt there was absolutely no reason to feel wronged because of Zhuang Mingyan.
She was furious at Zhuang Mingyan for being so despicable, resorting to all sorts of means.
Taking advantage of the judges’ authority, she indiscriminately scored her low!
If she truly performed poorly, she would accept it!
But clearly, that’s not the case!
Ye Fei was equally angry that Zhuang Mingyan ruined the Changping Competition!
The Changping Competition had emphasized fairness and impartiality since its inception.
And its reputation throughout all the previous rounds was consistently good.
Yet it was in the final, such a crucial moment, that Zhuang Mingyan’s scoring ruined it.
Making it end poorly, even though it had been organized so well all along, it fumbled at the end, causing disappointment.
Ye Fei was furious Zhuang Mingyan destroyed the entire competition for selfish reasons.
Having this put her in last place, could the other contestants genuinely be content with their win?
Would their victory be dignified?
The people of Changping were all extremely proud.
Letting them win the competition in this manner, they themselves wouldn’t be willing.
As a result, apart from Ye Fei, Tian Pengpo and others also wore unpleasant expressions.
They didn’t even want to continue listening to the scores.
However, the scores still had to be announced.
An Haiyin forced herself to perk up and picked up the score result from the second box.
Ye Fei’s scores were all around 8.8 or 8.9.
Until Zhuang Mingyan’s scores were revealed.
As expected, Zhuang Mingyan’s scores were overall very low.
An Haiyin didn’t read the scores immediately but found Zhuang Mingyan’s score for Ye Fei first.
The moment she saw it, An Haiyin’s heart sank to the bottom.
But this was live, An Haiyin didn’t even have the opportunity to ask the organizer if they wanted to continue.
An Haiyin could only continue announcing the scores.
When reading others’ scores, the audience was already accustomed.
This round, Zhuang Mingyan’s scores continued the style of the previous round.
All around the six-point range.
Until An Haiyin read Ye Fei’s: "Ye Fei, 3.8 points."
This score, did Zhuang Mingyan take the opportunity to insult her?
Not only did she score low, she even gave a thirty-eight.
The audience was in uproar.
"What’s up with Zhuang Mingyan!"
Ye Fei’s fans stood up directly, shouting towards the stage: "Will the competition still allow Zhuang Mingyan to score? What kind of scores are those!"
"Unfair! Zhuang Mingyan is unfit to be a judge!"
