Chen Hui very fluently took five-plus minutes to read through the roughly 1000-word script, all the while maintaining a cadence and grasping the rhythm well.
This assessment result surprised Sun Guofu immensely, but he remained composed, not showing his astonishment.
Subsequently, as the interviewer, Sun Guofu posed several other questions before letting Chen Hui leave.
"To broadcast the script so fluently in just a few minutes, really not everyone possesses this ability, quite impressive." Sun Guofu praised generously.
"Among the interviewees, her performance was indeed the best," Wang Ling chimed in:
"I think for this segment, she should be able to score a perfect score. Her appearance and professional skills are flawless, it’s like God gifted her for this profession, she was born for it."
"Then let’s give her a perfect score," Sun Guofu said somewhat helplessly.
Lin Yi’s written test results were so good, plus his quick reaction and clever mind, so Sun Guofu wished for Lin Yi to aim for the first rank.
But looking at the current situation, Lin Yi couldn’t possibly surpass her anyway.
So it doesn’t matter how many points to give her.
After Chen Hui left, Lin Yi was called in.
"Hello, all the leaders."
Lin Yi greeted as well, but was evidently much more relaxed than others.
Nervousness was nonexistent for Lin Yi.
"Here’s your test paper, you have five minutes to prepare, then report without the script."
Lin Yi nodded and opened the A4 paper.
Inside was a piece of foreign news with a lot of English mixed in.
The word count was not short, at least over 1500 words.
Lin Yi’s expression became slightly serious; five minutes isn’t long, it needs to be taken seriously.
With master-level memory, Lin Yi memorized all content and silently recited it once, ensuring no issues, then put the A4 paper back in his pocket.
"You can start now."
"Hm?"
Sun Guofu and others showed slight surprise, "Just three minutes passed, are you sure you’re ready?"
"About done, it should be fine."
"Then start now."
Wang Ling took a glance at Lin Yi, whose test topic she arranged in advance, was much more difficult than Chen Hui’s.
Furthermore, he only prepared for three minutes, the final result is predictable.
Lin Yi cleared his throat and began the report.
"Janu brand’s flagship hotel Janu Tokyo is located in the vibrant core area of Mabudai Hill..."
As Lin Yi started, several interviewers were stunned.
This standard and accented feeling gave them an illusion as though watching the CCTV news.
Their mind was completely professional level, Sun Guofu even felt, perhaps none of the top hosts in the station could compare with such skills.
While several were surprised, Lin Yi’s broadcast continued.
"The new district has been ambitiously crafted by insightful individuals in the architecture field, featuring the tallest skyscraper and a 24,000 sqm lush green space designed by Thomas Heatherwick..."
After seven or eight minutes, Lin Yi finished reporting around 1500 words of the script.
The broadcast process was exceptionally smooth, some focal contents had precise diction, making it pleasing to listen. Closing eyes would truly give a feeling of watching news.
When the broadcast ended, everyone was stunned.
If Chen Hui’s performance was excellent, then Lin Yi’s was perfect.
Greatly exceeding everyone’s expectations, even Sun Guofu hadn’t anticipated this outcome.
After a brief amazement, the process continued, asking several other questions, attempting to showcase abilities in other areas.
For Lin Yi, they posed no difficulty, answering all questions with ease.
After all questions were asked, Sun Guofu said:
"Show me your script."
Lin Yi handed over the script, Sun Guofu examined it for a while.
"Wait for the result, you’ll be notified later."
"Alright."
Lin Yi turned to leave, marking the end of the afternoon interview, allowing the interviewers to speak without concern.
"So many words, at least 1500, more than others."
"This script is fairly targeted, showcasing reporting skills. A longer script isn’t too problematic; we can comprehensively score it," Wang Ling mediated.
"Indeed, among everyone’s script, I felt this one was the hardest, containing many obscure terms and place names, even with English. Lin Yi achieving this level in just three minutes proves his skills."
"Yes, indeed."
Wang Ling still wanted to say a few words for Chen Hui.
However, recalling the two’s performance earlier, she found Chen Hui somewhat lacking compared to Lin Yi, unable to surpass him in any aspect, no chance to speak favorably.
Even in the later question segment, Lin Yi’s responses were impeccable.
In sincerity, comparing the two, on certain issues, Chen Hui was not as good as Lin Yi.
"It seems we need a change, Lin Yi performed so well, giving Chen Hui a perfect score might not be suitable."
No one opposed Sun Guofu’s words, because that’s the reality.
Even if the station’s pillar were brought in, they may not measure up to Lin Yi.
Not a major in broadcasting, yet achieving this level is truly rare.
"Then let’s give Lin Yi a perfect score, and Chen Hui 95, I think this is more suitable."
"That’s definitely acceptable."
Sun Guofu didn’t mind too much. Given Lin Yi claimed the first spot, everything else was irrelevant.
...
After the assessment, Lin Yi went about his business.
Chen Hui returned to the car, and received a message from Wang Ling.
"Perfect score."
The message was brief, just two characters.
Reading the content of the message, Chen Hui’s hanging heart finally settled.
Her interview score was first, and the written test score was only three points behind Lin Yi, sufficient to bridge the gap between them.
Thus, her comprehensive score ranked first.
The host journalist for "Entertainment Frontline" could only be her.
Thinking of this, Chen Hui felt inexplicably excited, called two friends, planning for a drink.
But soon after driving out, Qin Yuejin’s call came.
"Uncle, Director Wang messaged me, my interview score was perfect, resolving the written test gap shouldn’t be an issue, comprehensive score should rank first."
"There was a surprise, the perfect score in the interview was Lin Yi’s; your comprehensive score ranked second."
"Ah!"
Chen Hui slammed the brakes.
"How is it possible? I got the test questions in advance, how could his score be higher than mine."
"Wang Ling was in charge of the interview, she was on-site, Lin Yi’s performance was indeed better than yours, no doubts on that point."
