Yesterday's Strongest Brain 10th, the 12 players who had previously qualified were divided into two groups and then PK. Before the game, everyone voted two captains, namely Zhu Keqi and Bai Yupeng. The two captains then choose the members of their respective teams.
In the selection process, on the surface, the two captains are the protagonists, but in fact, everyone may pay the most attention to another big god, Cao Yidong.
Obviously, the person who is elected first, his ability must be affirmed by the captain, and the further he goes, the lower his ranking in the captain's mind. As a previous leader, Cao Yidong was actually selected by Zhu Keqi in the last round this time. It can be seen that in the hearts of the two captains, Cao Yidong is not as good as Zhang Tianyang, Meng Jie, Huang Ruoyi, Gong Jin Saibo and others.
In fact, seeing one player after another being picked up, There was a hint of loneliness in Cao Yidong's expression. We know that since the beginning of the season of The Strongest Brain, Cao Xiangdong has always been a god-level figure. First of all, his initial ranking is the first, and in the game he has played the role of leader and organizer many times, which shows that he is still very confident in his ability. Later, he and Zhu Keqi and Zhang Tianyang formed the strongest trio, which also made everyone look up to them, and even everyone thought that these three people might be the most powerful contenders for the final brain king.
But it was also this trio match that made Cao Yidong suddenly fall off the altar. Although they won, Cao Xiangdong, who was the first to appear at the time, performed very badly, thanks to Zhang Tianyang and Zhu Keqi turning the situation around after coming on the court. After the game, Cao Yidong also very much cared about his abnormal play, and at the same time, this incident also greatly affected his confidence.
In this episode yesterday, Cao Yidong changed from a previous leader to an ordinary team member. And fate seemed to have played a joke on him, the first four teammates all successfully completed the problem, but when they arrived at him, they suddenly got stuck. You know, the format stipulates that as long as one person does not complete the question, then it must be torn down and restarted, that is, the first four people must play again to do the problem. And in the end, Cao Yidong actually lost his hand.
Fortunately, Zhang Yucheng of the other team did not complete the problem, which also made Cao Yidong's failure seem less dazzling. But in the end, their team still lost, and Cao Yidong played a role of dragging his feet.
In fact, during the game, several observers found that Cao Yidong's state was not too good, and compared with his previous vigor, he seemed a little sluggish and not excited at this time. After the game, Cao Xiangdong said that he ate hot pot and ate bad stomach, in fact, this may be a statement, the real reason, as early as the first period of the seed was planted.
In the first period, Cao Yidong, as the first player in the initial ranking, took the initiative to stand up and direct everyone to queue, that is, from this time on, Cao Yidong forcibly set a leadership role for himself. But it was this step that brought him into an abyss.
Self-positioning is too high, in fact, to add a lot of invisible pressure to yourself.
Through the previous competitions, we can see that Cao Yidong's pressure is greater than anyone, although he is strong, but every game seems to be worried, afraid of losing the mentality overflowing. Why? Because he is the first, he can't lose, and he's still the leader, and he can't let others question him.
Little by little, this mentality eroded his energy, and in the end, the string might be broken.
It was he himself who imposed a lot of baggage on himself in the first installment, and as the game progressed, he became more and more overwhelmed.
We can compare other people. In terms of strength, Gong Jinsaibo, Meng Jie, Zhang Tianyang, Zhu Keqi and others may not be weaker than Cao Yidong, and the reason why their performance is more stable than Cao Yidong is because they did not intend to play the role of leader from the beginning. Compared with Cao Yidong, their mentality is more stable, more low-key, and they do not add scenes that have nothing to do with the game, so their consumption is less, and they can spend all their energy on the game itself.
For example, Zhu Keqi has always been light and light, not impatient, so his strength has been maximized. The same is true of Bai Yupeng, Meng Jie, Huang Ruoyi and others.
Fortunately, after experiencing several setbacks, Cao Yidong had already realized and relented. In this issue, when he wrote about the captain, he did not write about himself. This is not the same as his previous posture. In this regard, his explanation is that he played too badly in the last round, and this time he did not want to be the team leader, and wanted to taste the taste of being a team member.
Perhaps, Cao Xiangdong, who unloaded his baggage, can truly show his strength. This time he is not in good shape, and I hope that next time he can present his best self.
