Chapter 1232: 1231 making excuses
Especially for the young people, just starting their jobs, or who haven’t even started working, with poor family conditions, they might never be able to own an apartment in Capital. But now, an opportunity was laid out in front of them, how could they possibly miss it?
Some people knew the insider information, like the contestant currently standing on stage, while most people were unaware, otherwise definitely more would have registered to compete.
The man with pockmarked face was extremely flustered, it wasn’t hot, but his face was covered in sweat, “Young man, don’t talk nonsense, our competition does not have physical prizes, let alone an apartment in Capital as a reward.”
That person didn’t believe the pockmarked face man’s lies, “That day when you were talking to your relatives, I heard everything. Initially, they approached me too, but I wanted to win the reward based on my own abilities, so I refused. I didn’t anticipate being harmed by you guys in the end.”
While he was talking, four or five athletes charged up, holding plastic chairs in their hands, seemingly ready to cause a scene.
The leader, dressed in an orange tracksuit, carrying a heavy plastic chair, said, “If you don’t give us an explanation, we won’t leave! We joined this competition to achieve honor, we don’t care for any physical rewards! But you cheated in the sports arena, destroying the sportsmanship, and I can’t tolerate that!”
Some people need honor, some need prizes, but they all dislike being eliminated without understanding the reason.
The pockmarked face man couldn’t maintain order alone, and then one male and one female director stood out, their positions significantly higher than the man with the pockmarked face, their words carrying more authority.
“Ladies and gentlemen, contestants, please calm down for a moment!” the male director said, “Let’s discuss this calmly; if you make noise here, then we will not be able to resolve anything.”
This director obviously had experience with big events, he wasn’t as nervous as the pockmarked face man, even carrying a slight smile on his face, which gave a rather relaxed feeling.
“Stop the nonsense!” the contestant who first ran onto the stage demanded, “You just need to tell us whether there are physical prizes or not!”
The group that followed asked, “And one more thing, were those people who caused trouble in the sports arena arranged by you?”
This time the female director spoke, “This sports event indeed has physical rewards, but I hope everyone remembers one thing, the most important aspect of sports is physical exercise, our purpose in hosting this sports event is not to distribute physical rewards, but to promote physical fitness among everyone.”
“Regarding the second issue, our committee can’t give you an answer right now,” the female director continued, “Clashes in competition venues are normal, we cannot make arbitrary conclusions without investigation. So please wait a few more days, once we have clarified things, we will give everyone an account…”
The man in the orange outfit was very unsatisfied with her response, and before she could finish, the orange-outfit man told her to get off the stage, “An account? Will you really give us an account? I think you just want to use this time to find excuses!”
The female director smiled and said, “Sir, I know you’re anxious, but being anxious doesn’t help, we need time to investigate. Rest assured, once we find anyone who has violated the rules of the competition, we will definitely punish them.”
“Oh, so you mean to say there’s no evidence right now that anyone has violated the rules of the competition?” Wu Hao and his roommates suddenly appeared on stage, he couldn’t walk, so his roommates had to carry him up.
The female director responded with a smile, “That’s right.” She considerately asked, “This contestant seems to be severely injured, if there’s anything our committee can help with, just say it, we will do our best to help you.”
Wu Hao gave a cold laugh, “What help do you think I need?”
The female director didn’t respond, and the male director then said, “We can recommend the best doctors to you.”
“Keep the doctors for yourselves,” Wu Hao said with a smile, “lest later you get beaten so badly and can’t find a doctor to treat you.”
