Lowering Difficulty by Five Times!

On the day of the competition.

Afternoon, at Central TV's Department 11's recording venue.

At the ground floor of the high-rise building, there was a filming spot. Cameras were hooked up, and there was even a camera drone buzzing midair. Underneath a large billboard screaming "National Crosstalk and Skit Competition", regions were divided with thousands of people lining up to enter the venue.

"Don't push."

"One by one!"

"Everyone line up with your preliminary competition admission pass!"

"Please produce your identification cards as well. Thank you for cooperating!"

This was a much anticipated day. Today was the day where the crosstalk competition unveiled its curtains before the skit competition. Numerous members of the media from the television stations, newspapers, and internet news portals were scrambling to report on the competition.
