Chapter 84 Shortcut

After the "Queen" band was formed, Gu Qingge's system main task "debut as a member of any girl group" was only one step away from completion.

The "debut" in this main mission means that the "Queen" band holds a successful public performance with an audience of no less than 5,000.

If she followed the thinking of ordinary players, she might subconsciously think that these 5,000 spectators must be live audiences.

This main mission is indeed quite difficult, and the Queen band needs to accumulate fame for some time.

Even if Gu Qingge is the lead singer of the band, he may not be able to lead the band.

Because she is not as famous as her songs, not to mention that some of her internet-famous songs are really not suitable to be performed by the "Queen" rock band, as the style is really inconsistent.

However, considering that its mission rewards are "permanent blue skill card (expert dance), ten-draw ticket, charm value +5, physical value +5, energy potion × 10", such a generous reward, it is indeed necessary to have such difficulty.

But the "God of Strategy" Gu Qingge found a shortcut.

That's if she performs a successful performance with Queen on any popular show.

Then if the show is broadcast and 5,000 viewers watch their entire performance, then the main task will also be completed!

So the question is, which is the right show for her to choose?

She couldn't help but instantly think of "Produce 101", the girl group audition variety show that is currently gaining popularity.

While Gu Qingge was busy forming a band to advance the progress of the main task, the "Creation 101" program team was still trying to hype up the show.

As a result, the program's promise to invite Gu Qingge as a singing and songwriting mentor actually caused widespread ridicule.

Gu Qingge suffered an unexpected disaster.

The reason was another not very popular music variety show. The mentor of the variety show was a popular young singer, but the student turned out to be an out-of-date veteran singer who had several classic old songs that were once popular.

The production team of the variety show hyped up this incident, saying that the popular singer So-and-so was actually serving as a mentor to the veteran singer So-and-so. Netizens lamented that times have changed.

The fact is, the popular young star didn't comment on anything at all. He also knew the rules and just kept smiling throughout.

But in order to attract attention, gain traffic and create hype, the program team did this.

As a result, Gu Qingge, the youngest singer-songwriter mentor in history who was @ed by the official Weibo account of Produce 101, was also strongly questioned, and the Weibo post was filled with ridicule.

"Who is Gu Qingge? How can a popular internet celebrity like her, who's not even a fifth-tier artist, be qualified to be a singer-songwriter?"

"Although 'Produce 101' is a girl group talent show, it can't choose a singer-songwriter mentor just for the sake of attracting attention by picking a young girl like Gu Qingge who only writes internet-famous songs. Aren't those veteran singer-songwriters more popular?"

"Haha, variety shows these days really have no bottom line when it comes to hype. They didn't invite so many excellent original musicians, but instead invited an internet celebrity."

"It seems like every mentor in this show has to give a live performance right from the start. Are you sure a studio-famous singer like Gu Qingge can hold his own on stage?"

"Gu Qingge is just an internet celebrity. She knows nothing about girl groups. What qualifications does she have to be a songwriter for a girl group? Can she write dance music suitable for a girl group? If the production team really invites her, the ratings of "Produce 101" will definitely flop!"

…

Netizens who have a little knowledge of the entertainment industry's routines should be able to see that these comments are organized.

They directly classified Gu Qingge as an "Internet celebrity singer", completely ignoring the fact that she was already a "gold" level musician of "Yinyue.com", equivalent to a first-line musician.

It is obvious who these water armies come from. It is naturally the popular young star. He is trying to divert the attention of netizens and let Gu Qingge take the blame.

This kind of operation is very common in the entertainment industry. Often, after a star reveals a huge amount of negative information, some public relations personnel behind the star will spread all kinds of information about other stars, making random rumors and directly muddying the waters.

Or simply use this black material to expose your own hidden black material, because at this time everyone's ability to accept has been trained, and they can naturally explode this hidden bomb in advance, and successfully whitewash it in one wave of operations.

Of course, the "fans" could not accept Gu Qingge being mocked like this. Under the leadership of Chu Ling, the president of the fan club, they carried out various anti-black and comment control activities.

"Our Gu Gu is not a fifth-tier artist because she hasn't been evaluated yet. If she were to be evaluated, she would at least start at the second tier."

"Does anyone really think that the talented Gu isn't qualified to be a singer-songwriter? No way, no way? She's already collaborated with national vocalist Chen Yirong and pioneered a Chinese-style song with 'Loyalty to the Country.' Is there anyone who doubts her talent?"

"I laughed when I saw some people saying that Gu Qingge's live performance was not good. She became popular on the Internet because of her live videos. I even think that her studio versions of her songs are not as good as her live versions."

"@Gu Qingge, brother, please write a dance song suitable for a girl group for the "Produce 101" production team. I hope to see you give the haters a good slap in the face!"

…

Gu Qingge was caught in a whirlpool of public opinion. In such a situation, the system's side quest challenge unexpectedly appeared -

Current side challenge task: Participate in the variety show "Produce 101" as a singing and songwriting mentor, and create the most popular girl group idol group in China!

Mission completion reward: a random permanent blue skill card (expert level).

Gu Qingge accepted this side challenge mission without hesitation.

Maybe other people in this world don’t know how popular “Produce 101” will be in the future, but she knows.

Rocket Girls 101, who finally debuted through this variety show, is the most popular girl group in China.

Now, if she becomes a singer-songwriter mentor for "Produce 101" and composes a few highly addictive dance songs for Rocket Girls 101 in the future, then this side challenge task can be completed with her eyes closed.

The most important thing is that if she really becomes a mentor of "Creation 101", she can bring her own "Queen" band to perform the opening show. At that time, there will be more than 5,000 people watching this variety show.

Thinking of this, Gu Qingge decisively used Weibo to respond to the production team of "Produce 101" -

"I've accepted the theme song invitation. I've been researching dance music suitable for girl groups these days and I already have an idea. I'll send you the demo in a couple of days, so keep an eye out~"

As soon as Gu Qingge's "Apocalypse" skill was activated, he naturally "created" the theme song of the original world's "Produce 101" with the same name -

Hello hello hey please give me the stage

Hello hello hey success or failure is cute

Oh hey hey baby, with you I'm not afraid of any obstacles

The best position for dreams

Because you prefer me

My dream is waiting for you to wake up

This beauty will light up because of you

Irreplaceable

I am the one you love

Baby you want pick me up

Shout my name

Hey hey hey hey

Every dance step is a fantasy of stepping on your shadow

Hook your pinky finger and agree to go through the level together

Hey yeah yeah yeah

Hey yeah yeah yeah

Exchange myself with you

Create proud girls together

Pick me pick me up

Pick me pick me up

Pick me pick me up

The more you like me, the cuter I am.

…

This theme song of the same name from "Produce 101" is certainly not as brainwashing and addictive as songs like "Little Apple" and "Calories", but it is impossible for Gu Qingge to release a trump card right at the beginning.

Her response on Weibo caused a huge uproar!

No one expected that when she was at the center of the storm, she actually rose to the challenge and really wanted to be a singing and songwriting mentor on "Produce 101"!

The production team was also a little confused, and when they received the theme song of the same name for "Produce 101", they were completely caught in a dilemma...

Simply because this theme song perfectly meets the requirements and wishes of the program team!
