Chapter 1339 The second round begins
After the celebration banquet, the rhythm was indeed progressing according to the paparazzi's expectations.
Xilingchen and Shen Antong were photographed drinking intimately at the banquet, and the paparazzi also photographed her wearing a diamond ring, which was confirmed to be a couple style. So the scandal was once again noisy and was reprinted by major media.
The popularity has been fermenting smoothly. Chen Antong also followed the clarification routine of last time and posted on Micro Time and Space that the two just happened to sit together. The ring was because she liked this one. She often used couple avatars alone on the Internet. "I hope everyone will not over-associate and focus on the works."
This is one of the hype strategies, the real one is real, and the real one is virtual. On the one hand, wearing a couple ring pointed out to show off, and deliberately being photographed. On the other hand, only Chen Antong wears it alone. It seems a bit far-fetched to say that the two of them wear couple rings.
Including this clarification, only Chen Antong expressed his opinion. On Xilingchen, whether you say he agrees or says he is too lazy to respond, both sides can find a basis for their own benefit.
It is this kind of incident that seems to be "anything can be understood" that is most likely to cause carnival among the melon-eating crowds. They will enjoy adding reasoning and use magnifying glass to find all kinds of clues. The discussion will continue, and naturally the popularity will continue.
Releasing the scandal, leaving another live button to clarify, and leaving another live button to make people guess that the first cooperation between these two "hype experts" is indeed inseparable. It just makes people feel sorry for those who are eager to find the truth. They think they are exposing lies one by one, but in fact they have just become free water troops for the other party to harvest traffic.
Some people have compiled this twists and turns into a simple and easy-to-understand joke to make jokes.
"Paparazzi: You're having dinner together, you have a crush!
Xilingchen/Chen Antong: Just talking about work and having dinner together.
Paparazzi: You showed affection at the banquet, and the woman also wore a couple ring.
Chen Antong: But I just happen to like this one, you see, he didn't even wear it.
Netizen: This ring is very valuable! Even if it is not a couple ring, he gave it to you, right? Your relationship is not simple!
Chen Antong: Do you think he can bear it?
Netizen: Even if the ring was not given by him, you are smiling and toasting him in the photo!
Chen Antong: He is my boss. Do you want him to toast me? Or should I toast with tears?
Netizen: I don’t care about it, Xilingchen didn’t clarify it, which means that they may not want to clarify it! I must eat this candy to the end!"
...
Every time there is a hot incident, there will always be someone who looks like "Everyone is drunk and I am awake alone" and says: "This is hype."
Another group of people usually retort: "The ratings of this show are already high enough, and the popularity of both parties is enough, so they don't need to hype anymore."
The first part of the people would explain with great thought: "How can there be 'high enough' viewership? No one in the world has watched it? As long as there are still people who have not watched the show, they will have the value of continuing to hype up the popularity. Moreover, the rise in popularity can also increase the income of the Two Lakes Chamber of Commerce. Will people like Xilingchen think that they have too much money?"
The popularity of this scandal can be said to be as popular as the show itself. Many people are contacting people around them and asking: "Is this couple true or false?"
While everyone is concerned about scandals, Yang Luna is concerned about her father's business.
She had already sent a message to her father and also explained her doubts in detail, but her father laughed at the side of the jade slip, and even said, "Luna, Dad is an old man. Who can deceive me in the business world? Don't worry, when Dad becomes rich this time, we can go back to live in a big house soon! At that time, your mother's luxury car and your dowry will have it!"
"Oh Dad, what do you mean by dowry..." Yang Luna was both ashamed and annoyed. But she could also see how much she was looking forward to this comeback. He had had enough of the hard days, and at this time, as long as anyone willing to pull him, he would be willing to bet 100% trust.
No matter how much she emphasized or persuaded her, her father kept fighting, claiming that he had a strong sense of prevention. "This business story is better than you. Before reaching a cooperation, I will definitely verify the details of others carefully, right? Besides, my father is empty-handed now and is a pauper. They just want to cheat. Are I afraid of them cheating?"
This really became "barefooted people are not afraid of wearing shoes", Yang Luna sighed secretly. But what her father said makes sense. Since they are already in such a downturn, there is nothing to lose anymore. The result of cooperation, no matter whether it is good or bad, will not be worse than now. As long as my father can tighten his pockets, not pay money, not borrow money, and not be a guarantor to the other party, then... there should be no problem.
Amid her worries, the second round of the schedule also arrived as scheduled.
In this round, since it is already a top 100 battle, the rules have also changed. Every day's life is no longer monotonous training, but begins to gather members like entertainment variety shows, making some fun mini-games, showing themselves to the audience in the competition, and winning points at the same time.
These games can be said to cover all aspects. Some people who are not good at talent have won the team back in the comprehensive stage. For example, in a mathematics competition, Li Meiying amazed the audience with her outstanding performance, making everyone shout "academic master".
Unfortunately, Jin Siqi, who has no other skills, still has no excellence. Therefore, in the show, she is still the "little transparent".
The change in the competition system also lies in the addition of a real-time voting area. Because there are only 100 people left, the list and avatar of all members are displayed. Clicking on the avatar, you can also see the detailed information of the contestants, as well as past works, etc.
This information column is equivalent to each contestant's personal homepage. They can dress up the background, add beautiful wallpapers and decorations, set background music, etc. They can also upload their own photos, short videos taken, and recorded songs to let everyone know themselves better. The richer the homepage, the more it can attract the attention of the audience, and maybe this will prompt them to vote for a key vote.
Ordinary users only have a few default backgrounds, both monotonous and simple, and all beautiful outfits need to be purchased separately. In order to attract attention, many contestants gritted their teeth and threw a lot of money - but some of these people have mines at home, while others have backed to the financial owners, and they are all not short of money.
Although contestants also have micro-time and space, people in this era are very lazy. Just look at your information on this voting page. If you are not a person who is very concerned, who has the patience to search your micro-time and space specifically?
In addition, there are scrolling recommendation positions on the homepage of the website. It is said to be random recommendations, but in fact, this column is bought by spending money. Even the display location and duration have price details. If you pay a lot, you will give you the most conspicuous recommendation positions. If you can't bear to pay, don't blame yourself for being unknown.
The first few items are to attract players to spend money, while the second one is to attract audiences to spend money.
Each registered user has 3 free votes every day, and can vote for the contestants they like. If you want to continue voting, you need to recharge and purchase virtual gold coins. As long as you are willing to recharge, it can help the contestants you support soar and leave everyone else far behind.
In addition to the most direct recharge of the voting gold coins, you can also get it by downloading the app and doing free tasks. Most of them are tasks that drive traffic and invite more people to download. On the one hand, more rich people will be invited to recharge the gold coins openly. On the other hand, the more active the app itself, the more advertisements it can receive, which will make a huge profit.
In this way, in order to package themselves and to support the contestants, the players will work hard to spend money in it. Otherwise, Xilingchen is the true nature of a businessman. In the non-profit network like Micro-Time and Space, there was no room for him to play. When it came to the app he developed, the way to make money was to make money one code after another. No wonder even the app icons were in a gold ingot shape, which was simply a capital lettering of "money"!
In addition, in daily training, Yu Liyan, who joined halfway through, became the most concerned focus.
She has a dance foundation for more than ten years and teaches students very well in dance classes. Moreover, she often does not stand in the role of a tutor, but teaches them the skills when pulling ligaments, how to quickly remember dance steps, etc. These are her own experiences, and they are exactly what these students need most now.
In the vocal class, she sat next to the instructor, pressing the keys smoothly with her hands, and playing melodious songs. That was completely professional and was enough to hold a personal recital.
Jumping, performing, and stepping... She is completely talented and has performed extremely well in any training class and is full of popularity. What is rare is that a popular idol like her is always not arrogant or impatient in training with newcomers, and her smile is easy-going. After the women were close to her, their criticism of her gradually became smaller. Especially Jin Siqi felt that she was not as good as the outside world said, and she was obviously a perfect and friendly person!
Someone also established a group of 100 people and invited Yu Liyan to join. She also agreed readily. After joining the group, she still interacted well with the students and did not have any idol airs.
On this day, the contestants received a new task.
Everyone is grouped according to the ranking, with 1-10 names being one group, 11-20 names being the second group, and so on, divided into 10 groups in total.
Each group will perform in public on the display day, and the process will be filmed into MVs as an answer sheet. The program team will evaluate these MVs and give corresponding bonus points to everyone.
But one thing is worth noting. On the day of shooting, the performance costumes will be provided by the program team. Except for the first group that can choose their own clothing style, the other groups must decide through lottery. In other words, before shooting, they have no idea what style of MV they will shoot!
Since the style cannot be determined, the content naturally cannot be determined. In order to quickly adapt to any style during formal shooting, in the early rehearsal, the second to ten groups had to try all the styles first to be prepared for any trouble.
The program team will give the styles of the lottery clothing in advance. As long as you determine which style the first group will choose, one category can be excluded again.
But there are also many people who are worried about whether the first group is really good at telling the truth? For example, if the first group deliberately says that they will choose the campus style, other groups will intentionally avoid the campus style during rehearsal. But if the first group tells lies and they choose other styles, the campus style will be drawn by another unprepared group. This will obviously bring overwhelming disadvantage.
Because of this uncertainty, most people still decide not to inquire about the styles of the first group, just rehearse all the styles themselves. Although it will be very hard, it is at least the safest.
Although the six people in Jin Siqi's dormitory still live together, this time the ranking group forced a gap for them. Perhaps on the surface, they still look good sisters, but the popularity gap is really between them.
Huang Shuxian and her teammates went outside to rehearse. According to the ranking, she happened to be assigned to the group with Yang Luna. At that time, the two of them didn't like each other, but they didn't know how to squeeze each other.
A test of grouping according to ranking is here. You may be assigned to the same group as the person you hate. So whether you can let go of your personal grudges and cooperate with her for the victory of the team is obviously an important step in front of many students.
Jin Siqi, Shi Yujie, Li Meiying and Feng Yin were all assigned to the same group, namely the 91-100th group, the least competitive group.
Shi Yujie still wore masks and sunglasses tightly, huddled in the corner without saying a word. Jin Siqi could understand her fear because she had received threat messages from Xie Shaochen many times these days. He relied on the handle in his hand and teased them like a cat playing with a mouse. Perhaps for an unsuccessful agent like him, anyone could call him around. After finally meeting two bullies, he naturally wanted to show the "evil of human nature" to them.
Shan Ling and Tao Keyi were in different groups respectively. Shan Ling went to the next dormitory to attend the group meeting, and Tao Keyi's companions came to her dormitory to discuss. In other words, there are two groups in this dormitory now.
The people in the two dormitories were scattered in two corners, whispering in a low voice, and they were not worried that they would be heard by people from other groups.
The MV and C position of Jin Siqi have already decided to be Feng Yin. She is also the one who is responsible for singing. Because she is indeed the strongest in the group, this is often arguing with C position in other groups, and they can easily reach a consensus.
As for the specific performance content, Jin Siqi hopes to shoot the plot MV so that she has the opportunity to show her acting skills. But others obviously believe that performance is not a strong point, and after fighting, they finally decided to perform the most ordinary team dance.
Chapter completed!
