The master of ceremonies seemed a bit nervous today, which could be seen from the stiff smile on his face.
Looking at the densely packed audience below and the dozens of cameras in front of the stage, this master of ceremonies felt a bit overwhelmed.
He usually hosts smaller events, so this big occasion left him unsure of what to do with his hands and feet.
He had never hosted such a high-profile event before, so the nervousness was quite expected.
After calming himself down, the master of ceremonies finally spoke: "Welcome everyone to the Fields Medal award ceremony. I am your host for today's event."
"Today marks the quadrennial international mathematics conference, where we gather to award the Fields Medal to those who have made the greatest contributions to mathematics."
There was still a trace of nervousness in his voice, indicating he hadn't entirely composed himself.
