After Hyping Myself Up With Narcissistic Marketing

Jiang Huai, with his handsome face, 1.84m height, excellent physique, top-tier professional skills, and genius fan-charming abilities, was a pitiful no-name.

The reason was simple.

Whil...

Chapter 14 Either song suits me well.

Chapter 14 Anyway, any one of these songs suits me.

@User 5658934962: [Shared picture]

Black and white, confusion and determination, the imperfect shooting angle creates a wonderful dislocation.

The more Jiang Huai looked at the photo he took, the more satisfied he became, and it was obvious that he was not the only one who felt satisfied.

Soon someone noticed the picture he posted on his second account, and it caused a huge uproar. The comment section exploded at the speed of light, and the picture was liked to the top of the comments.

【Me!!! Damn!!! Ah!!!】

[Ahhhhh Huailan is a perfect match! This is too good a match! I ate the key to the couple's lock!!]

[When I die, please engrave "20240706 contestant enters camp Huailan, destined" on my tombstone. It would be best if you could add a QR code to go directly to the sweet collection. Thank you.]

[You are so talented. There are pictures as soon as I finished speaking. It is my blessing to share the responsibility with you. 】

[Isn’t black and white a wedding dress? Doesn’t wearing a wedding dress mean you’re married? Doesn’t getting married the moment you meet mean you’re a perfect match? ]

[This is the pride that Huailan brings me. I'll give you two hundred yuan and put it on my account next time.]

[Thanks to the digital teacher for the amazing picture! Anything else? Let me know! ]

I can’t shake it out anymore, Jiang·Digital Teacher·Huai thought regretfully. Even he only has this one.

After a long journey, the bus finally drove into the base and the players got off one after another.

PD He Chen was standing at the door taking turns collecting cell phones. Jiang Huai watched helplessly as the confused Lin Jiaze mentioned in the repo post of the fan meeting was detained alone and stood next to He Chen like a criminal.

Soon the show's logistics team brought a board with a few words clearly visible on it: "Those who hide mobile phones will be publicly executed."

Lin Jiaze awkwardly raised the sign high above his head, then lowered his head like an ostrich, wishing he could bury himself in the ground.

Every trainee who passed by was trying hard to hold back their laughter, and a few who were familiar with him laughed even louder, and even took a photo of the embarrassed Lin Jiaze before handing in their phones.

Finally it was Jiang Huai's turn, and he discovered that the program crew's methods were even more cruel than he had imagined.

Lin Jiaze not only held up the sign, but also kept repeating: "I am the big idiot who exposed myself for hiding the phone. I am the big idiot who exposed myself for hiding the phone..."

His voice became softer and softer, and He Chen criticized him, "Speak louder. Why didn't you think about the consequences when you hid your phone? And you were so happy chatting with fans at the fan meeting?"

Lin Jiaze then gave up on himself even more and said in a loud voice: "I am a big fool who revealed that I hid the phone! Big fool!"

Jiang Huai gritted his teeth and endured it, waiting for the person who handed over the phone to enter the base before he started laughing.

Before going to bed, he posted the live shots and pictures of today's meeting on Chu Yuanqing's Weibo account, and then he clicked on the comment he had posted earlier on his second account.

The original repo has already received 30,000 retweets!

Since the launch of the "Produce Producer" program, there have been only two offline events: the contestants' entry into the camp and the theme song performance. There have not been many opportunities to release pictures, and there has not been a picture that has been shared thousands of times.

The show has only been aired for one episode, and the initial evaluation stage has just been aired. Even with the promotion by two large companies, Jingming Media and Huatian Entertainment, it is mainly an internal entertainment among the fan group. The Huailan CP does not have such a large scale at all.

...Where does this traffic come from?

Jianghuai continued to trace back along the forwarding chain.

After seeing the picture, a big fan of the CP forwarded it, and it was then spread by other passers-by who did not follow the star, but this was only a small part of the 30,000 reposts.

The most copied artist is blueee, who is affectionately called Lan Tai because of her Weibo ID. Her painting style gives people a pure feeling, with solid basic skills and ideas, especially good at light and shadow shaping.

Lan Tai was very famous in the early years. In the past two years, he has cooperated with many domestic game companies to promote commercial articles. His popularity has risen again. The number of his fans is more than many contestants in the program "Creation Trainee".

【@blueee: I took a bite and touched it when I passed by. 】

Lan Tai took only two hours to create a fan art at the speed of light. The overall design was not very detailed. It was just a simple layer of two parts, and the picture was cut in two by strong light.

Jiang Huai, dressed in black, stands in the light, while Yu Lan, dressed in white, stands in the dark. The scene is chaotic yet harmonious, and the contrast between light and shadow is extremely strong, adding a sense of atmosphere compared to the original picture.

She only refined the faces of the two people, and her painting was so brilliant that they actually looked somewhat similar to the real people, especially her expression.

[Lan Tai is really amazing. This is the result of just two hours of slacking off? His light and shadow creation is too genius. I want to learn from him.]

[Does anyone know what IP this is? A new idol project? ]

[Goddess, I don't allow anyone to disobey you, I don't allow anyone to hinder you, I don't allow anyone to suppress you. ]

[Lanta actually drew the couple I'm obsessed with? ! ? Who can slap me and tell me I'm not dreaming? ? ? ]

[Hello, passers-by! This couple is Huai Lan from "Produce Trainee". The one in black is younger than Jiang Huai, and the one in white is older than Yu Lan. There are so many good meals in the super topic! The portions are large, filling, and delicious. Don't miss it if you pass by! ]

[If you want to support our couple, you can download Apple Video to vote! Our show itself is also very good! The surrounding design is also super beautiful! [Picture][Picture]]

Jiang Huai was stunned.

He thought the feedback for this picture would be very good, but he didn't expect it to attract traffic from outside the circle, especially from a well-known artist of this level.

Although Lan Tai only said that he was just passing by and took a look, and I don't know if he was really addicted to it, and I don't know if he will draw again in the future, at least this wave of attention from passers-by is real.

This kind of tap water traffic actually has more recognition than the artificially bought hot searches. Most of the hot searches usually bought are fan recommendations, and it is considered a success if it can occasionally attract a few real passers-by.

This time I really hit the big one.

The next day, it was the familiar studio again. 99 trainees gathered together. While they were joking around, PD He Chen walked in slowly.

Now he no longer needed to clear his throat deliberately, and the trainees automatically quieted down.

He Chen nodded with satisfaction: "I guess everyone knows what I'm going to say, right?"

"The first performance." "The first performance--"

Different voices intertwined together, and someone lazily dragged out the ending tone, causing others to laugh along.

He Chen said helplessly: "That's right. The first performance will be in the form of a group showdown. There are eight songs in total, divided into sixteen groups, and each group has six to seven people depending on the song. Groups with the same song will compete in a PK showdown, and the winning group will receive 10,000 votes each."

His eyes roamed over the trainees standing in front of him, and this time his tone became serious: "After the first performance, we will announce the rankings. For contestants ranked 67 to 99, unfortunately, your program recording will end here."

“That is, elimination.”

Although everyone knew what was going on, hearing the word "eliminated" with their own ears gave them a completely different feeling.

Everyone who came here wanted to debut, and no one wanted to go home after one round. The relaxed and happy atmosphere just now disappeared, and the studio became a little frozen.

But Jianghuai is concerned about something else.

He was still standing there, but his mind had instantly switched to Chu Yuanqing's vest and he clicked on the voting interface.

Because voting requires binding of an ID card and not many free tickets are given, the majority of votes still come from die-hard fans who buy peripheral products. The overall number of votes for "Produce Producer" is not particularly inflated.

Currently, the vote gap between the contestants in the lower circle is very close, with only a few hundred votes between them.

Ten thousand votes...the production team really got it right.

These 10,000 votes are insignificant to the top contestants who have already won a huge prize, and can only be considered as icing on the cake, but for those who are on the edge of the rankings, they may determine their fate.

If you can get into a team with several popular players, your chances of getting the 10,000 free tickets to win will be much greater.

"Well, let's take a look at our first performance repertoire."

He Chen pressed the remote control, and the names of eight songs immediately popped up on the big screen behind him. They only stayed for a few seconds, before people could see them clearly, before they switched to the cut video of each song.

In the first song, dark mud falls from the cracks in the sky, and the world tree penetrates the earth and pierces the sky, growing in a savage way.

"Les Dieux", the debut song of the same name by Jingming's leading boy band.

The second song, war drums beat, flags waved, black smoke billowed on the ancient battlefield, weapons and armor made clanging sounds, and the young general's eyes were as bright as torches.

"Flames of War" is the representative work of the rock band Nine-legged Golden Crow.

The third song, the universe is vast and boundless, the thousands of planets are magnificent and shocking, and the electronic synthesized background music is full of futuristic science fiction.

"Universe", the theme song of a radio drama derived from a science fiction novel.

In the fourth song, a pair of slender hands plucked the traditional string instruments shaped like a bow and arrow, Kunshan jade shattered and the phoenix cried, the hibiscus wept in the dew and the fragrant orchid smiled.

"Li Ping's Konghou Introduction" is a track from the Chinese style album of female singer Gu Shutang a few years ago.

In the fifth song, an uninhabited island emerges in the middle of the blue sea. A beautiful mermaid leans against the reef and looks back with a smile. The melody of the song is as gentle as the waves.

"Mermaid" is a song composed by Huatian Huadan artist Xiang Wan.

In the sixth song, a girl who was concentrating on reading in the library looked up and happened to see the boy who was peeking at her from the side. Her cheeks turned slightly red, showing her innocent young heartbeat.

"Letters from Old Times", the OST of a campus-themed TV series.

The seventh song, the morning light is just breaking, the bright sunshine penetrates the green forest, the ancient spells are whispering in the wind, and the blonde elves are humming light and dreamy songs.

"Secret of the Woods", from the foreign girl group the Angels.

The eighth song, in a candy-colored world, a summer food truck is selling heart-shaped ice cream, and dozens of girls are dancing in unison with sweet smiles.

"Confess Loudly" is a classic girl group song by the idol group Sugar Dreams that is popular in the streets and alleys.

The whole room was in uproar.

"Why do I feel like I'll be scolded to death if I choose a bad performance? Can the production team pay for my mental damages?"

"I'm not good at English, can you automatically exclude me from English songs? I really can't sing it."

"Sugar Dream? Group of Death, oh my god!"

"Why are there Jingming and Huatian again? Is our production team being a little too frugal?"

The trainees started chattering, and the solemn atmosphere just now disappeared in an instant, and everyone looked eager to try.

The system suddenly asked: [So what do you think? Didn't you say I'll know tomorrow? Why can't you tell me now? ]

Jiang Huai said frankly: [I have no idea. I will choose the people as I told you before. As for the songs, they will be the same as in the previous life. I guess the rules will not change either. It still depends on luck. In this case, no arrangement is the best arrangement.]

He said confidently: [Any song is suitable for me.]

He Chen clapped his hands, and the studio gradually returned to silence, but the solemn atmosphere just now was gone, and everyone looked eager to try.

"The members of each group will be selected by the captain. I'm sure everyone has guessed who the first captain will be? Who will it be?"

"That must be the center of the theme song!" "My brother Jiang!" "Jiang Huai."

Just as Jiang Huai walked down through the crowd, Sheng Mingzhi, who was standing aside, did not shift his gaze at all, still looking at PD He Chen, but suddenly said: "Don't choose me, thank you."

Jiang Huai walked down the stairs, and replied without looking away: "I didn't say I would choose you, don't be so self-indulgent."

…Although Jiang Huai was right in saying this, Sheng Mingzhi still felt that the other party would choose him. He really didn't want to be in the same group with Jiang Huai, after all, he was a top player in Class A, and everyone was aiming for the C position.

But the fact that has to be admitted is that he definitely cannot compete with Jianghuai for C.

Sheng Mingzhi stared at Jiang Huai standing in the center of the stage, and saw him slowly speak: "The first player I choose is——"
