The Freshman Cup Debate Competition is based on departments, with a total of sixteen teams formed. They go through four rounds of preliminary rounds, semi-finals, semi-finals and finals, and finally compete for a champion team.
After ten years of wandering among people, it goes without saying that Gu Yun's debating ability is not to mention, and several teammates are also extremely talented. After several days of hard training and running-in, they passed all the way and reached the threshold of the finals.
It has just reached 6:30 in the evening, and the Nanhu Auditorium is already packed. Freshmen are always happy to participate in various activities held on campus, not to mention the cup competition specially designed for freshmen.
The sense of collective honor often arises from the same labels. Freshmen from the same department gathered together and whispered. The sounds of expectancy and one after another discussions filled the air above the auditorium. Only the contestants' long tables facing the audience were placed parallel to the stage, and
The host's seat in the center of the stage is still empty.
"Don't the finals start at seven o'clock? Why are there so many people..."
As one of the annual activities of Nanhu University, the Freshman Cup Debate held at the end of each year is a signature large-scale event hosted by the school's student union. It is also the first time that the Propaganda Department officers, including He Xuan, have presided over large-scale work since they officially joined the student union.
From arranging the competition schedule, choosing debate topics, inviting judges, to setting up the venue, maintaining order, providing logistical support, and handling various emergencies, the busy and stressful week will finally come to an end tonight. Every day
The members of the student council were all in high spirits and looked forward to the smooth conclusion of the competition.
As a contestant, Gu Yun does not need to participate in the student union's logistical support work. He only needs to concentrate on preparing for the competition.
"It's like this every year. The audience for the Freshman Cup finals is the largest. You have to come early to get a good seat. If it's late, you can only stand at the back and listen." Vice Minister Li Jianguo, standing next to He Xuan, has been
After Deng Jingjing's reprimand, she became much more mature in her words and deeds. It was he who took the lead and stood up for the success of this competition.
"Minister Li, you seem to know how to debate?" He Xuan said in surprise. Li Jianguo is not usually so talkative.
Li Jianguo's dark face showed a trace of embarrassment, and he said: "Chairman Hua Shiyuan has won the best debater in the cup competition before, and I also learned a lot of knowledge privately."
He Xuan's eyes widened: "Senior Sister Hua also won the cup championship? How come she can do everything."
"You are wrong. She did not win the championship. The championship has always been the law school debate team. Law students debate various legal ideas in class every day. There are also moot courts specially used for debate. How can someone from Yeluzi compare?
." Li Jianguo gave a rare smile and said helplessly, "The best debater is always selected from the losing team. Saying it is the best seems to be the highest level of personal honor. In fact, everyone who debates avoids it.
Because winning the best debater means losing the competition."
Before He Xuan could reply, he immediately changed the topic and pointed to the overwhelming promotional banners and balloons with the words "Xiao Le Study wishes the Freshman Cup a complete success".
"In the finals, I heard that a boss sponsored a surprise gift of 5,000 yuan. Not only did you freshmen come, but many people from other grades also came."
There's no way around it, you have to have the right amount of food to hold a competition.
Just as he was talking, the voice of Director of the Propaganda Department Yue Yi came from the **l sound system in the auditorium: "Invite the two teams of debaters to enter. Students watching the competition please find a seat and sit down as soon as possible. The competition will start soon."
"Let's go and work." Li Jianguo tugged at the corner of He Xuan's clothes, and the two returned to the backstage.
It was exactly seven o'clock in the evening when Deng Jingjing, a senior official of the regiment who arrived belatedly, sat down in the middle of the front row of the auditorium.
Gold medal host Yue Yi cleared his throat, walked onto the stage, adjusted the appropriate height of the desktop microphone, and said: "Dear teacher, dear students, good evening everyone!"
The noise in the auditorium gradually disappeared.
"Welcome to the finals of the Nanhu University Freshman Cup Debate Competition. I am Yue Yi, the host of this competition."
"The debate topic in the finals is: Do the pros outweigh the cons or do the cons outweigh the pros when a debater falls in love with a debater?"
There was thunderous applause. The organizer's choice of debate topic was very subtle. It was no longer a numb and rigid social issue that requires a lot of accumulation of knowledge. Whether you know how to debate or not, you can find your own answer in the question.
The voice gradually became quieter, and Yue Yi continued to speak into the microphone: "Please allow me to introduce the two parties competing today."
"Sitting on my left is Zhengfang, a new army composed of management schools. Their view is that the benefits outweigh the disadvantages when debaters fall in love with debaters."
Most of the audience in the audience are freshmen. When the host introduces the teams representing the department, even if they don't know the debaters on the stage, they still want to cheer.
For a time, the atmosphere in the auditorium became extremely lively.
After introducing themselves, the affirmative debaters were in no mood to respond to the audience's enthusiasm. They nervously looked through the thick stack of information in each hand, writing and drawing from time to time, trying to sort out their thoughts for the last time before the start of the competition.
While looking at the information, Bai Wenshu's peripheral vision glanced at the name tag of the male contestant on the other side of the stage. Thinking of her past experiences, her face turned pale and she began to feel frightened.
"What's wrong, Wen Shu, you met your old sweetheart in the finals and you can't open your mouth?" Liu Yisheng, who had evolved, raised his eyebrows and said slyly to his teammates, "As the saying goes, fights at the end of the bed and at the end of the bed, don't panic, look at Gu Yun's opponent.
who?"
While the positive team was cheering in a low voice, Yue Yi also gave a brief introduction to the negative team. The audience cheered and applauded thunderously, and several cheering slogans shouted at the top of their lungs were heard.
The flavor triggered bursts of laughter.
The tall and handsome guy sitting in the first debate position of the opposing side stood up neatly, without picking up the microphone in front of him, and said in a loud voice: "Gao Zhipeng, the opposing side of the first debate."
"Another argument is sweet." The voice of the sweet girl with short hair and round face is full of energy.
"Three arguments against Ma Yunhao." Some thin boys stood up and said, not forgetting to grin at the audience, full of confidence.
"Zhong Leyi, the fourth debater on the opposite side -" The girl with long flowing hair specially wore gold-rimmed glasses in order to highlight her debating temperament, and paused slightly, "——Freshman Debate Team of the Law School, I would like to say hello to everyone."
The moment she said the word "good", the four debaters bent down and bowed in unison, and stood up straight at the end of the last syllable.
The applause is endless, and it has won the Freshman Cup for six consecutive years. The law school has a profound foundation and inheritance in the field of debate.
The four of them, Gu Yun, also clapped together and looked at each other. Similar sighs could be seen on the faces of their teammates.
The self-introduction of the opposing side was short but powerful. In addition, there was no use of a microphone, which saved the time and pause of passing the microphone. The four debaters took over the speech smoothly and ended neatly. Unlike the affirmative, although everyone's
I introduced myself in an orderly manner, but the passing and receiving of the microphone still interrupted the original rhythm.
And a short introduction makes it feasible to give up the microphone. If it is a whole paragraph of introduction, without the amplification of the microphone, it may be difficult for the entire auditorium audience to hear clearly. But to refine it into a few simple words, as long as you have a little luck and raise your voice
, the lung capacity of ordinary people is enough to allow loud sounds to be clearly transmitted to the ears of the audience.
In just ten seconds, the debating experience of the law school, the words and deeds of the seniors and sisters, and the ease of professionals were fully demonstrated.
