Chapter 240
The difference is probably what sets Starry Sky Kindergarten apart from other kindergartens.
Everyone thought Starry Sky Kindergarten was already exhausted. Just the mechanical task of scanning and uploading could wear people out. Two hundred thousand documents is no small number.
But Shen Wei used advanced technology, directly letting the system help with uploading and scanning.
Of course, using the system to work cost over 10,000 points.
Now only 45,000 points remain.
However, the system's efficiency is very high.
As a super algorithm, it only took less than an hour to do this task.
The next day, the live interview began.
Netizens were all waiting.
"Even if there are only 20,000 people, they can't interview them all."
"I saw in the admission brochure that each child should prepare a one-minute performance. They only have 10 days. Can they interview 2,000 people in one day?"
"Probably not, unless they're superhumans."
Just as netizens were guessing how Shen Wei would handle this, the selection method for this interview was announced. There were four groups of judges in total.
The first group of interviewers consisted of Shen Wei, the art teacher, music teacher, singing teacher, street dance teacher, classical dance teacher, and Liu Chef.
The second group was Lin Rui, Qin Shu, Teacher Tang, Guo Qing, and Tang Xiaowan.
The third and fourth groups were also people from Starry Sky Kindergarten.
They were all teachers, teaching assistants, and some teachers with special artistic skills.
For this live broadcast, they applied for several additional accounts.
Each group of judges was live streaming on different accounts.
This way, everyone could choose which group they wanted to observe.
And the selection was made on the spot.
They would directly say "in" or "out."
This method was quite exciting.
Netizens were all fired up: "I want to go to the first group, but I also want to see the other groups. What should I do?"
"Don't worry, all Starry Sky Kindergarten fans have this idea. Someone will definitely record it. I'll watch Shen Wei's group first, and when it's over and the recordings from other groups come out, I'll watch those."
"Your idea is the same as mine."
"I want to watch Teacher Tang's group. Teacher Tang is pregnant with such a big belly, will she be okay?"
"It should be fine. Last time a netizen left a message, and Teacher Tang replied that she volunteered for this."
"It's not even my exam, why am I so nervous?"
"Me too."
With so many people, coordinating simultaneously was a huge challenge for Starry Sky Kindergarten.
Fortunately, they had a dedicated security team.
And a logistics team.
All 400 people from Starry Sky Kindergarten were mobilized.
In addition, there were kitchen helpers.
And people from the district came to coordinate, totaling over a thousand people.
The live broadcast started on the second day.
Early in the morning, a large crowd had gathered at the entrance of Starry Sky Kindergarten in the new district.
They were all there for the interview.
There were so many people.
Even traffic police had arrived because there was nowhere to park.
Outside, there were various small streamers, holding up their phones to live stream this event.
Others had arrived early to comply.
They were waiting there for the live broadcast to begin.
This time, as an online live broadcast, it was in vertical screen format.
But it was split-screen, with one camera firmly focused on the contestant's performance, and another on the judges' reactions.
This way, by entering one live stream, you could see both the contestant's performance and the judges' reactions.
As for the 2,000 people on the first day.
They had been notified through various means which group and number they were, and what time to arrive at Starry Sky Kindergarten.
Others could come at their designated time. They didn't need to wait here in vain.
There were four groups in total.
But the group with the most people was always Shen Wei's group.
When the first child came in.
Netizens were delighted to find that Starry Sky Kindergarten was so thoughtful.
This time, they had invited professional hosts to moderate the atmosphere.
The host for the first group was the wedding host they had invited for the culinary competition.
This wedding host had hosted many, many weddings and had honed his improvisational skills.
Moreover, he was quick-witted and likable.
Shen Wei directly signed a contract with him. As for the judges' side, Shen Wei invited internet celebrity hosts.
They were mainly known for being quick-witted and able to liven up the atmosphere.
This time, it was also a way for them to earn extra money.
Those internet celebrity hosts came over excitedly.
After all, being invited by Starry Sky Kindergarten undoubtedly increased their popularity.
It was a win-win situation, and netizens cheered when they saw this.
"My favorite kindergarten and my favorite hosts are collaborating!"
"What a double delight."
"So awesome."
"Always cheering for Sister Shen Wei who never lacks money."
"I really love her so much."
Then the first group of children came in.
Each group was to interview 500 children.
Everyone was very nervous, and it was thanks to the host who comforted them first.
Then, when it came time to perform, the children showed a bit of fearless spirit.
Being able to go first, the parents were also filled with anxiety and hope.
After all, the first group last year was admitted.
They hoped to start off well this year too.
This time, the admission required at least 5 out of 7 judges to pass.
They were only admitting 500 people. If the number exceeded, there would be a tiebreaker. If the number didn't exceed, those admitted were admitted.
Everyone wanted to win over these judges on the spot.
The first child's performance was average.
Actually, for their age, being able to complete these tasks was already good.
But among the children, it was ordinary.
This child wasn't admitted. The child was quite competitive and burst into tears on the spot.
Thanks to the host's praise, the child calmed down.
The sight of the child sobbing was quite pitiful.
Netizens all felt heartbroken.
"I didn't expect kindergartens to be so competitive now. I thought the first child did pretty well. Can't believe they weren't selected."
"The first child forgot several words during the recitation, probably because they were too nervous. The child's voice was trembling."
"Reminds me of my first time on stage. That nervous trembling feeling is still vivid in my memory."
Soon, the second, third, and fourth groups started interviewing one after another.
Starry Sky Kindergarten's pace was very good.
Shen Wei was gentle yet firm, enthusiastically inviting those who were selected to come to Starry Sky, while offering comfort to those who weren't selected.
After just one morning, Shen Wei's voice was hoarse.
Gu Qingyan, watching the live stream, was very worried.
Finally, the other judges also started to exert themselves frequently.
Netizens watching were exhausted. At first, they were excited, but after watching for a while, they truly felt tired.
If even the viewers felt tired, not to mention Shen Wei who had to juggle maintaining a lively atmosphere, comforting children, scoring on the spot, and so on. Her mind must be under high tension, ten times more exhausting than just watching.
Netizens suddenly sighed: "Having many people isn't necessarily a good thing."
"I'll stop watching for now and wait for the edited highlights to come out."
Otherwise, it's really too exhausting.
