For the sake of my brother debut, I decided to become a Uranus superstar

Chapter 142

The two standing at the door looked outside silently. The sun was shining and the crowds were constantly flowing, but it only made people feel desolate.

The staff with work badges in the open space are organizing the eliminated trainees to get on the bus. Under the shining sun, a short shadow is drawn on the soles of their feet, but their faces are covered by the too bright sun. Not very real.

The weather that should feel warm like this, on the contrary reflects the loneliness at this moment.

When a trainee stepped on the steps of the bus, the tears that had been suppressed in front of the camera indoors finally burst out, and big tears rolled out of the red eyes.The staff member who was standing at the door of the bus walked up to him with a concerned expression on his face, whispered a few words, and patted his back gently.

He hurriedly pushed away the tissue she handed over, wiped his eyes twice indiscriminately, smiled very reluctantly, thanked him, stepped on the steps quickly without looking back, and disappeared at the car door.

The numb-faced trainees lined up behind him couldn't help but darken when they saw this scene.

"Maybe, next time I come out of here, I'll be one of those people."

Even if the promotion is successful, when Luo Xiao sees such a scene, there is still a sense of sadness in Luo Xiao's heart.

Shen Yirong said indifferently: "Those who want to advance can't get promoted, and those who don't want to advance can't fall if they want to be eliminated. Human comedy is just like this."

Before Luo Xiao could say anything else, Shen Yirong asked again: "For the afternoon group, have you considered what to choose?"

"I should choose Vocal, after all, I can't do anything else..." When this topic was mentioned, Luo Xiao's heart became heavier, "What about you, Yirong, do you also choose Vocal?"

"Well, unless the company asks me to choose something else, I can only choose Vocal all the time." Shen Yirong was silent for a while before opening cautiously, "I may be a little nosy, but you this morning..."

"Personal testimonials are so out of line with public expectations, aren't they?"

Shen Yirong was taken aback, but felt surprised: "You know?"

"Well, I know, I knew at that time that if this kind of talk is broadcast, people will definitely say that I have low EQ, and may be misinterpreted." Luo Xiao paused before continuing, "I later I didn’t say this kind of thing again, because I felt that it was inappropriate and inappropriate to say this in front of this group of eliminated trainees, not because I regretted it. If a fan asked me the same question, I would still answer like this——’Luck is better than hard work , is more important in this show'."

Seeing Shen Yirong's expression of disapproval, Luo Xiao sighed, with a look of melancholy on her face: "In the past, I still thought that personal strength was the most important thing. If you don't necessarily get a lot of hard work, then pay ten times or even a hundred times. As long as we move towards the goal, one day, we can achieve the goal... But, I don't think so now."

"I was very opposed to marketing before, because I thought that as long as I worked hard, I could have a way out. For example, in singing competitions, if you sing well, you can be No. 1. Or, if you are a singer, Because your songs are good, naturally your albums will sell more and you will be able to hold bigger concerts."

"Although some people say that marketing can also allow those outstanding unpopular singers to be discovered, in fact, as long as such singers continue to write songs, they will be discovered by the audience one day. It's just a matter of time. But what is it like now? What? Pushing a group of singers with a real strength of [-] or even failing in front of others, let these [-] singers sell the number of albums that an [-]-point singer should have. If it’s just like this, it’s fine, they often It is to occupy other people's resources, squeeze the living space of other singers, and finally say, 'Who made you have no money to market'."

"Many people believe in this kind of marketing method, and when they buy it, they think 'what kind of rubbish is this'. After a long time, if the audience's reception channel allows them to only have access to this kind of work, they may feel that 'Huaxia The music scene seems to be doomed', and they will be less and less willing to try new songs from China, and instead listen to foreign songs."

"Actually, there are many excellent musicians in China, but people's attention is limited, and many people will only passively accept the songs provided by the list, and will not deliberately spend time looking for those buried musicians. .If the list is relatively fair, that’s fine. Those musicians who have no money and only dreams can still do their best. But if the list itself is also tied up by marketing, it becomes a place where you can get on the list without spending money. A place where money can’t squeeze in?”

After being silent for a while, Luo Xiao said bitterly: "If a singer wants to sell a song, he must first be heard. If the song can't be heard, what's the point? In the end, he was either forced to change careers, or followed the marketing hype. ...Moreover, after discovering that you can easily earn money by making [-] or even [-]-point works, who is willing to put in the effort to make high-level works.”

Shen Yirong thought for a while, and replied: "Prisoner's dilemma, everyone does not market, everyone depends on their own ability. But as long as there is one person marketing and the marketing is successful, everyone has to market together, so that we can get back to the previous situation. Without the level of marketing, relatively fair competition... It can be regarded as raising the threshold for outsiders to test the water. After all, it is too easy to make money in this industry. Marketing has developed to the present, regardless of other places, in the entertainment industry, everyone is playing fast It’s become a traffic war.”

Luo Xiao smiled wryly: "In fact, I have always thought this is a very bad thing, and I don't want to be a part of it in the future, so I have been resisting marketing before, because I don't want to be the kind of person I used to hate. But now, as you said , either to market together, or not to market together, so as to achieve relative fairness, people like me who have no money to market at all, may not be eligible to enter the circle from the beginning..."

Shen Yirong's smile remained the same, but his tone was slightly cool, ""National Idol" claims to invest tens of millions, and other movies are often tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of investments, and you can see what is produced in the end ..."

He turned his head to look at Luo Xiao, and smiled softly: "Do you know why you spend so much money?"

For some reason, Luo Xiao's heart skipped a beat.

Under the noon sun, Shen Yirong's eyes were like a shallow sea of ​​sediment. What floated on the surface was blue-white and transparent like an iceberg, and the deeper it went, the more it looked like a dark color full of silt.

At the moment when his whole body was so stiff that he couldn't move, he heard Shen Yirong's voice softly and clearly ringing in his ears, slowly as if reciting a long poem——

"How much of this abnormal flow of funds is for money laundering... Do you want to guess?"

…………

"First of all, congratulations to the 60 trainees who have successfully advanced." Wen Ji smiled and clapped his hands, "I know that everyone's hearts have been in suspense during this period, and now they are relieved. But, soon, the new Here comes the challenge again..."

"This time the songs are divided into Dance group, Vocal group and Rap group. Each group has four songs. There are [-] songs in total. Once the number of people for a certain song is full, the trainees who choose the song later cannot Choose this song again."

"As for the order of song selection, it is determined by the final popularity ranking of the trainees last time."

Wen Ji looked at the trainees whose eyes showed "I knew it would be like this" but had to pretend that he was looking forward to and curious at the moment, and his tone was a little brisk: "Starting from the 60th place, Lin Suyu who is the [-]th Be the first to pick."

wow——

The audience suddenly exploded.

Lu Zhenglin was a little confused: "Am I the second last choice?"

When he was watching the song just now, he had already decided which song to choose, and he was waiting to go up and choose it. He even thought about how to adapt and write the lyrics. Have you changed your mind?

You Yi whispered: "Think about it, there is Shen Yirong to help you, don't you think it's okay?"

"The higher the popularity, the more you can only pick the songs left by others?" Swallowing back the "crazy" that rushed to the throat, Lu Zhenglin even ran to cut Gao Shenglong's head to see if it contained shit. Impulsively, "Is he afraid of being messed up if he does this?"

"who knows……"

Even if his emotions were a little out of control, Lu Zhenglin still maintained an impeccable smile on his face, watched the camera turn around, gently took You Yi's hand, and looked at him affectionately: "Brother Yi, we probably won't have a chance to cooperate this time... ..."

For some reason, seeing Lu Zhenglin's tenderness, You You felt as if someone was using a loudspeaker to play "Scumbag" on a loop in his head, or the kind that was played on his forehead with the largest font in gold-embellished black body.

"...It's okay, let's see the sky." I really want to work hard to cooperate with my friends to stir up a wave of CP, but seeing Lu Zhenglin's face, he only has the appearance of a groundhog screaming "scumbag" in his heart, Whether he can laugh or not is the result of his efforts to hold back, not to mention a scene where you come and go with me.

Although the trainees in the upper circle were full of complaints, the trainees in the lower circle seemed quite happy.They were worried that the trainees in the upper circle would secretly agree to choose the same song together. Now the upper circle can only passively choose the song they have chosen. For them, they definitely support this change with both hands and feet.

"Lin Suyu, please choose a song first."

Lin Suyu bowed politely, and the neat uniform on his body made the young man extraordinarily upright and dashing.

Behind the partition, Chai Fei was standing by the table waving to him.Twelve boxes were lined up one by one, and hand-held cards with song titles printed on them were quietly displayed.

"Which group will Xiao Yu choose?"

What I thought was a simple question, unexpectedly, the young man standing still at the table fell into deep thought, as if this question was extremely difficult for him, and the blood faded from the fingertips holding the table.

After thinking for 5 minutes, he raised his head and said firmly, "I... still want to choose the Rap group."

Chai Fei didn't urge him, and said again: "The Rap group has four songs in total, take the song you choose, and go to the back and wait."

At this moment when ordinary people would hesitate, Lin Suyu chose very quickly.

"I've chosen it." The boy smiled brightly.

The hand holding the card that was taken away by him is impressively——

"Can U Love Me"

"Love me okay?"

[VCR shooting...]

Lin Suyu: Ladies and gentlemen, today is a special VCR, mainly, I have a news to announce to you——

Luo Xiao: "National Idol" has opened a fan channel, and now you can receive fan gifts and letters.

Lin Suyu: That's right, but... well, Qianguang launched the star movement list, and the star movement value must reach a certain level before you can unlock this special VCR...

Luo Xiao: But I don’t think it doesn’t matter if you unlock it or not. No one wants to watch videos like us reading fan letters or opening presents, right?

Lin Suyu: ...Yes, yes?

Lin Suyu: No, think about it this way, maybe no one really wants to watch this kind of thing...

Luo Xiao: At least you should be more determined.

Lin Suyu: I, am I very firm?Where am I not firm?Even if my sisters don't want to watch this kind of boring nonsense video, I will be strong enough to finish it!

Luo Xiao: Then it was frozen by the program crew and placed deep in the hard drive.

Lin Suyu (whining and rolling): My sisters will make the list for us, I won't listen, I won't listen.

Luo Xiao (with a cold face): Roll over by yourself, don't scan the camera, if you still have the strength after howling, you can perform another set of radio gymnastics for your sisters.

Lin Suyu: ...Xiaoxiao, you are so cruel!

Lin Suyu: The content of this special VCR includes reading the letters from the sisters, and opening the gifts sent by the sisters on the spot^_^Of course, if the sisters have any requests, we will try our best to meet them~ Over the wall for you, Qixi Festival Sending you roses, or wanting my handwritten letter, whatever.

Luo Xiao: If there are no letters or gifts from fans at all... we can only sit together and talk about cross talk.

Lin Suyu: Brother Lu next door has received letters that can't fit in a box, so we can't even receive one, right?

(Lu Zhenglin, who was desperately reading a fan letter with dry mouth, shivered inexplicably)

Lin Suyu: How about we pretend to be fans of each other and write letters to each other?

Luo Xiao: Stop it, this sounds so miserable.

Lin Suyu: But if no one writes a letter to send a gift, I will be really sad...Xiao Xiao, you can read it for me next time. If no one writes to me, you can secretly write one to me. I said.

Luo Xiao: ...You can clearly recognize my characters.

Lin Suyu: Coax me, what can I do!ah!If no one sends me a letter, I will be so sad that I will cry. Believe it or not, I will cry for you right now!

Luo Xiao: The problem is, this is called business bragging, not letters from fans, it's embarrassing...

Lin Suyu: ...

Lin Suyu: I don't care, anyway, the next time I read a letter, there must be a letter delivered to me!Otherwise, I will...

Lin Suyu: I just rolled on the ground!Get lost!Roll from winter to summer!

Luo Xiao: ... Are you cheating like Min Fengqi! ?

(Min Fengqi, who is rolling all over the floor: ???)

Luo Xiao: Sisters, don’t get used to him, otherwise he will roll on the ground today, and tomorrow he may go to the top of Mount Everest to broadcast an avalanche live. He can really do such a thing.

Lin Suyu (voiced hoarsely): At most, I can only roll around in the arms of my sisters, how could I do such a thing!

Luo Xiao: Now turn back to the topic of the star list...Let me see, the first stage is to unlock fan letters, the second stage is to unlock fan gifts, the third stage is to 'meet all your requirements', and the fourth stage is to' Fan Q&A', and at the end is... um, what is this, 'a different version of him you want to see'?

Lin Suyu (suddenly alert): Xiaoxiao, don't look...

Luo Xiao (has already opened her hand quickly): Uh...um! ?Him in women's clothing? ?What is this? ?

Lin Suyu: Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo-

Luo Xiao: Hey, it seems that the VCR used to unlock the heartbeat video is different for everyone.

Lin Suyu: Ah, the sun, you are so red and big——

Luo Xiao: Mine is... well, proposing to fans in a suit?

Lin Suyu: Ah, why is the sky so blue, today is a good day, we should go out and do radio gymnastics——

Luo Xiao: It seems that only Su Yu wears women's clothes.

Lin Suyu: One, two, three, four, two, two, three, four, three, two, three, four, come and do gymnastics with me, exercise! Good health!

Luo Xiao: But this final heart-moving video requires a very high star-moving value, and I feel that it can't reach it...

Lin Suyu: So, so, that's it for today! !

Lin Suyu: Sisters, remember to write to us!
