Chapter 404: High Public Opinion

When Mo Zhu said this, the anger in the hearts of the people from Country Z present was ignited like a barrel of explosives. Even the teachers and leaders from other countries who came to the venue to be supervisors joined the group that was criticizing Country H.

“This girl is right. Do these people from Country H really think we’re fools? To say such things and cancel Country Z’s results. The rules can’t be changed just because he wants to! He’s looking down on the other participating countries. No, we definitely can’t allow such a thing to happen!”

“That’s right. Today, Country H’s invigilator was able to swallow the first place of Country Z because he casually changed the rules of the competition. He can use the same trick on us another day. This kind of behavior cannot be tolerated!”

At this moment, as the noisy crowd in the venue discussed, the live broadcast that was broadcast back to Country Z through the machine equipment also aroused the strong dissatisfaction of the people watching the live broadcast in Country Z.

Not only were the high school students and professors, who were still in school, supporting those who were participating in the competition in Country N on various social media platforms, but they also published many articles on the international forum complaining about Country H’s bad behavior to report this Mathematics competition.

It was unknown how this matter was widely publicized, but the number of viewers on the live-stream platform instantly shot up and the stream was filled with comments.

“You have to give Country Z a reasonable explanation for this matter. Otherwise, we will definitely not tolerate Country H bullying our contestants again and again. We will definitely report this matter to the relevant leaders and cancel Country H’s right to host any international competitions in the future!”

“I’m a staff member of the headquarters of Country Z’s Ministry of Education. We request the organizing committee of the Mathematics competition organized by Country H to give us a reasonable written statement. Otherwise, it will be a blatant violation of the principle of fairness of the competition!”

“This is the Beijing News media. We have already sent relevant personnel to Country N in time to understand the details. We hope that the organizing committee of Country H can cooperate with our investigation…”

Just as everyone was demanding a reasonable explanation from Country H’s organizing committee, the education department of Country H was also being harassed by phone calls.

“Director, the matter is brewing faster and faster this time. The situation is getting increasingly serious. If we don’t take some control measures, the public opinion will escalate again. I’m afraid that it will be hard to control the situation at the competition venue in Country N.”

A staff member in a dark black suit who was in charge of answering calls stood in front of the wooden desk and was asking for instructions from an old man who looked to be in his sixties or seventies.

The old man frowned and pinched the space between his eyebrows calmly. “Call the Public Relations Department and ask them what good ideas they have!”

When the staff heard this, he immediately picked up the phone again and dialed a number skillfully.

After a while, he hung up the phone and said in a low voice, “Director, I’ve spoken to the people over there briefly. The Public Relations Department wants us to instruct the people at the competition venue to organize a new team competition. This time, we’ll only let the team from Country Z that has obtained first place compete with the team that gets second place. The winner will then be decided from this competition!”

The old man nodded. He seemed to have thought of something and looked up and asked coldly, “What’s the method of answering the questions? Is it the one that was stipulated in the team competition previously?”

Upon hearing this, the staff quickly waved his hand and replied, “No, the Public Relations Department said that they want to use the spare test questions. Every member of the group will answer the questions separately and then we will consolidate the total score of the five people.”

After saying this, the old man lowered his eyes and pondered quietly for a moment. Then, he discussed it carefully with the other staff in the office for a few minutes. After obtaining a unanimous opinion, he instructed the staff member to call the invigilator from Country H who was at Country N’s venue.

After receiving the order from the higher-ups, the invigilator naturally did not dare to be careless. He glanced coldly at Mo Zhu below the stage and announced loudly, “After the discussion of the organizing committee, we have decided to use the spare exam questions for the two teams to complete another round of questions for the team competition. There are a total of five parts to this set of exam papers. Every member of the team can choose a portion of the questions and answer them. After the competition round has started, the members of the team are not allowed to communicate during the entire process of answering the questions!”
