Chapter 78: Chapter 78: Big Brother, I Admit Defeat!
At that moment, Wang Qian was completely stunned. She hadn’t expected her cousin to be able to answer nine questions in one breath! Taking a deep breath before the last question, Wang Qian asked, “The final question! How long is our country’s coastline?”
Without hesitation, Wang Hao replied, “18,000 kilometers! My heavens, such an easy question and you don’t know it? This is basic knowledge, Little Qianqian! What have you been learning in geography?”
Everyone in the venue was astonished!
Ten questions! He had actually answered all ten questions!
The entire studio exploded into chaos!
Everyone stood up and applauded Wang Hao’s spectacular performance!
“Holy cow, this guy is incredible? He got them all!”
“This is truly magical, he’s a genius!”
“Awesome, he answered all ten questions in one go, could they all be correct?!”
By this point, the host was exhilarated! He dashed to the center of the stage and announced loudly, “He answered all ten questions, but are his answers correct? Let’s… check the big screen!”
Soon, the answers for all ten questions flashed on the big screen!
Question one, correct!
Question two, correct!
Question three, correct!
Question ten, correct!
Ten questions, all correct, a perfect score!
“This… this…” The host was clearly flabbergasted, then he turned to Wang Qian, “Congratulations! Congratulations, your external help got all ten questions right! It’s unbelievable! Absolutely unbelievable!”
“Oh yeah! We won!” Wang Qian jumped up excitedly. She shouted into her phone, “Brother Hao, you’re amazing! You got them all right!”
On the other side of the stage, Chen Ming’s eyes nearly popped out of their sockets. He looked at the big screen, then at Wang Qian, with a face full of disbelief.
Is this… real or fake? All ten correct?
On the phone, Wang Hao was clearly still unaware of the situation, answering with unmatched swagger, “Holy crap, what’s so hard about this stuff? I stopped dealing with such basic things back in elementary school. If you’re gonna play, at least choose something high-end…”
The host’s face turned green again. Our show is low-end?
The audience couldn’t help but laugh their heads off, while Wang Hao kept boasting, “Look at me, ah. Fast forward three hundred years or rewind three hundred years, nobody can beat me in terms of IQ…”
Wang Qian blushed and abruptly hung up the phone!
She couldn’t let him brag any longer, or there’d soon be no mention of Einstein…
“Haha, haha,” the host wiped his sweat desperately and said, “This gentleman really loves to joke…”
He meant well, of course. The competition was over, and it was supposed to be time for the awards ceremony, but clearly, Chen Ming wasn’t thinking along those lines. Suddenly, he shouted, “No! This isn’t right! There must be a conspiracy!”
With Chen Ming yelling like that, the host immediately refuted, “Fellow student, our show adheres to principles of fairness and openness. You can’t suggest that there’s a conspiracy just because you lost, right?”
“Why not?!” Chen Ming shouted, “Who could get all ten questions right in one minute without even hesitating? I don’t believe it! I don’t believe it!”
Since this was live, the host, now agitated, asked, “So what do you suggest?”
Chen Ming said loudly, “Come up with a few more questions, pick some randomly, and see if he can still answer them!”
At Quchuan Square food stall.
With Wang Hao getting all ten questions right, all the customers at the diner were flabbergasted!
“Holy cow, this guy is too incredible! All ten right within a minute!”
“Can’t argue with that, hey guys, do you think this ‘Brother Hao’ is like a PhD or something?”
“Even PhDs might not be able to answer both so quickly and accurately! Amazing, you should know these questions cover all kinds of topics!”
People were marveling when Bai Yaning, sitting under the small cool canopy outside, looked at Wang Hao and suddenly curled the corners of her mouth, saying, “Who knew you had such a broad range of knowledge, those questions weren’t easy to answer.”
“Need you even ask!” At this moment, Wang Hao confidently started boasting. He poured himself a drink, sipped, and laughed, “Back in high school, I was known as the king of knowledge. Ren Xing, that chubby guy, knows it, hehe.”
“You’re just bragging again,” Bai Yaning chuckled, “I don’t believe you.”
“You don’t believe me, huh?” Wang Hao was just pondering how to prove himself when unexpectedly, his phone rang again!
“Is it Little Qianqian?” Wang Hao picked it up to see, pressed answer, and then started ranting, “What’s the situation over there? Are these questions still in your quiz rotation?”
Unexpectedly, this time a male voice responded on the other end, “Is this… Brother Hao? I am Wang Qian’s classmate. Could I ask you a few questions?”
Huh? Little Qianqian’s classmate? Boyfriend?
Doesn’t seem like it, since he used her full name. A boyfriend would surely call her by Little Qianqian…
“What questions?” Wang Hao asked curiously, “Are they the same ones as before? Go ahead, I know a lot about that messy stuff!”
Damn, this guy turned out to be quite bold!
Chen Ming on the other end immediately chose the toughest set and started questioning, “People often say the age of blossoms refers to what age?”
Chen Ming: “The next line of Wang Changling’s poem that begins with ‘If relatives or friends from Luoyang ask of me’ is?”
Wang Hao: “A piece of ice in a jade pot.”
Chen Ming: “What is the term for the climate anomaly caused by a rise in sea surface temperature in the eastern Pacific near the equator?”
Chen Ming: “What is the actual flower commonly used to present the ‘Blue Enchantress’?”
In a flash, they ping-ponged through more than a dozen questions, and Wang Hao was a veritable talking river, with nothing to stump him!
Not only Chen Ming but also the entire audience was dumbfounded this time!
“Holy crap, this is divine! What kind of person is this Brother Hao, to know everything!”
“So awesome! If there was a possibility of a conspiracy before, this time it definitely can’t be a conspiracy!”
“Yeah, if there’s still a conspiracy, then I’m on board!”
The audience was buzzing with comments, and Chen Ming, down below, was utterly speechless…
“Hello?” Wang Hao’s voice came through the handset: “Is anyone there? Hello? Hello?”
Chen Ming: “Stop with the hellos, big brother, I concede!”
