At the boy group survival show, the system tells Shen Xiu: If he doesn’t debut as the center of the group, he’s done for.
Initial Stage Evaluation:
Shen Xiu quickly learns a song called...
#Starlight Ring#

This official announcement of GG’s Weibo included four pictures, the first two of which were pictures of Shen Xiu holding an umbrella in the rain from different angles.
In the picture, Shen Xiu's slender fingers with distinct joints are holding the handle of a long black umbrella. The black ring on Shen Xiu's finger complements the black umbrella handle, making it look more classy.
The last two pictures showed Shen Xiu standing in the corridor, with one hand smoothing his black hair that was slightly wet from the rain.
The slender fingers wore a VG starlight black ring, and the knuckles shuttled through the slightly damp black hair, revealing the full forehead. In the cool rain, Shen Xiu's certain coldness and the damp and cold breath on the ring blended perfectly, highlighting the oncoming damp and coldness.
Xiu scholars thought that Shen Xiu’s last Weibo post would be the last one tonight, but they were caught off guard when a new post appeared on Shen Xiu’s homepage.
It was an official endorsement from a high-end luxury brand, and the experts couldn't believe their eyes.
After repeatedly refreshing the page, as the latest Weibo post on Shen Xiu's homepage did not disappear, the scholars finally believed that they were not seeing things and were immediately excited.
With excitement in their hearts, the scholars gave passionate comments below.
——Look what good stuff I got! Even through the screen, I can feel the lonely and cold temperament that belongs to the Great Demon King Xiu. He really suits the Starlight Ring! Who is so moved by today's big devil Xiu Shuai who has split the sky? Ah, it turns out to be me!
——Is this what Xiubao meant by 'a chance encounter'? !
——Here comes the prophet~ (Humph, just a chance meeting won’t stop our boss Xiu from getting the endorsement, boss Xiu is just that good)
——The Great Demon King Xiu never bothered to lie, so he must have only met Kaiser once. The Demon King Xiu told me the truth, but I didn’t find anything wrong. Damn it, it’s because my cultivation is not enough!
——Boss Xiu is doing great things quietly. His mind is like a needle in the sea. Damn it. It's another day when I can't guess what Boss Xiu is thinking. Woo woo woo
When Shen Xiu’s scheduled Weibo was sent out, VG’s official account also sent out a Weibo at exactly nine o’clock.
@VG: #VG’s cool summer spokesperson Chen Xiu#@Chen Xiu is dormant in the darkness with @Chen Xiu at the intersection of light and shadow, waiting for his heroic flight. Stay tuned! #VG Starlight Ring#

The four pictures released by VG are completely different from the four pictures given to Shen Xiu. They show Shen Xiu sitting in the car from different angles.
In the picture, Shen Xiu is sitting in the car looking out the window. The light outside the window shines on Shen Xiu inside the car, forming an extreme contrast between light and shadow with the darkness inside the car.
Shen Xiu clasped his hands on his knees. The black starlight ring on his index finger shone with an unignorable cold luster due to the contrast between light and dark. His temperament was exactly the same as Shen Xiu's.
In the photo, the ring seems to have become Shen Xiu's meal replacement.
After Chen Xiu and VG's Big Eyed Boy account each posted a scheduled Weibo, they clicked into each other's homepage and forwarded each other's official endorsement announcement blog posts.
After commenting on Shen Xiu’s Weibo, the scholars of cultivation reposted it and left messages on VG’s official Weibo account.
——Which official blog is this? You have such a good eye (shocked face)
——Oh my god, whose baby is this? He’s so handsome! Buy, buy, buy, buy out!
——Do great things quietly, a perfect match with Xiu Bao!
——It’s obviously a very daily photo, why does it look so high-end? Of course, it’s because VG’s beautiful taste matches the bossy temperament of the big devil Xiu better~
After Chen Xiu forwarded VG’s official announcement blog post, he returned to the homepage and saw that eight friends in the group had forwarded it almost at the same time.
Chen Xiu looked at the comments screen where his friends were neatly forwarding and congratulating him, and his nose felt sore, and his heart felt like it was being pulled by a silk thread, with a slight sour pain.
After carefully reading the congratulatory words from his friends, Chen Xiu replied carefully to each word.
The friends took him seriously, and in order to live up to their seriousness and to make sure that they didn't feel that he was being treated differently, Chen Xiu not only gave different replies to each person, but also the number of words and punctuation marks in his replies were exactly the same.
After forwarding the congratulations to Chen Xiu, the eight people sitting in the box seemed to have accomplished something great. The previous silent and tense atmosphere disappeared and they all became lively.
Xiang Yueting fell on the sofa holding his phone, laughing ostentatiously: "Hehe, the first person to reply to Chen Xiu was me, it was me~"
Xia Wenhao ruthlessly exposed Xiang Yueting.
"Why did you reply first? Don't you have any idea?"
Song Chengwang interjected: "If you weren't fast and were the first to finish typing and post, and if your fans saw your post first and liked your comment, would you be first?"
Xiang Yueting was not angry, and said with a smile: "Even if I am not the first, the first one will be Shang Yu who is a few seconds slower than me. In any case, it will not be you, the seventh person to be replied~"
Song Chengwang: "......"
Ning Sinian began to persuade the fight skillfully: "Xiang Yueting, stop talking. I'm afraid you won't be able to outrun Song Chengwang if we fight later."
Shang Yu spoke helplessly, cooperating with Ning Sinian to change the subject: "Didn't you notice that the number of words Chen Xiu used to reply to us was exactly the same, but not a single word in the sentence was the same."
After hearing Shang Yu's words, Song Chengwang and Xiang Yueting temporarily stopped fighting and went to the comment section to read Shen Xiu's reply to them.
In less than a minute, Xiang Yueting exclaimed.
"As expected of Chen Xiu, I would like to call him a world-class balance master. Not only was he fair enough to convince everyone during the training camp, but now he even has to be fair in his responses."
Jiang Yanxi sighed: "Even the reply is so thoughtful, the team really cares about us!"
Shang Yu stood up and said, "I'm done with the party tonight. I've paid the bill. You guys have fun. I have to go back and catch a flight tomorrow."
Song Chengwang also stood up and said, "I have to accompany my mom to the party tomorrow."
It was called a party, but in fact they just asked him to act as a bodyguard and carry bags.
A few minutes later, only Mu Zhenchu and Zhuang Yi were left in the box.
Mu Zhenchu looked at Zhuang Yi, who was sitting still on the sofa, and asked in confusion: "Aren't you leaving?"
Zhuang Yi shook his head: "No, if you leave, who will help you call a taxi later?"
Mu Zhenchu looked at Zhuang Yi, hesitating for a while before saying gratefully, "Thank you."
Zhuang Yi smiled and said, "You're welcome."
Among the nine of them, Mu Zhenchu was the most miserable. He could have signed with any other entertainment company, but he chose to sign with Qinghe Entertainment, the same company as Duan Mingfei and Lin Jiashi.
Let’s put Duan Mingfei aside and just talk about Lin Jiashi.
From the beginning of the talent show, Lin Jiashi had an inexplicable obsession with Shen Xiu, and he even showed up on his debut night despite being mocked by everyone.
Mu Zhenchu became Chen Xiu's teammate again, it would be strange if Lin Jiashi didn't trip him up.
But looking at Mu Zhenchu's expression, he obviously didn't want to talk about those bad things, so Zhuang Yi didn't ask.
On Weibo.
Driven by the reposts of the Xiu scholars and the other eight members of the group, and the interactions between Chen Xiu and them in the comment section, the popularity of VG's official spokesperson and the entry about Chen Xiu rose like crazy.
The marketing account that previously broke the news that Chen Xiu was the spokesperson for VG's summer series also reposted it to gain popularity.
VG's previous endorsements were all second-tier or above artists. For the first time, they used the newly debuted Chen Xiu, and they also adopted the form of both parties posting at the same time and then reposting, which seemed to mean that they were both parties, which aroused speculation from fans of various groups.
The netizens who were enjoying the melons were jumping up and down in the melon field, trying to eat the ripe melons.
——Relying on strength? I don’t believe that a newcomer can have any strength. It's a trick to fool people.
——Is Chen Xiu himself a capitalist? They signed the contract after just one meeting, so Chen Xiu’s endorsement is actually a mutual fulfillment of the two capitals?
——To be honest, you sound like a fool when you say this. You have top-level popularity and strength since your debut. You are either in the limelight or on the way to being in the limelight. And yet you still say that I, Xiu, have no strength? Of course, if the ability you are talking about is your giegie breaking his voice on stage, or tripping over his left foot and falling flat on his face during a concert, then our boss Xiu definitely doesn't have that ~ Kaiser has a keen eye for talent, doesn't he?
——But...Xiu Bao said that there was no contract signed when they met, so the question is, when was the contract signed?
——Yeah, when was it signed? (scratching head in confusion)
——Don’t be too happy too quickly. There are huge risks in hiring the newcomer VG. It will be funny if no one buys the products endorsed by Chen Xiu when the product is officially announced. Hahahaha.
——I agree, the ring is a small matter, the endorsement of the million-dollar watch behind the summer series is the top priority. Shen Xiu debuted so recently, does he have rich fans? I don't believe it~
——I can’t even think about the million-dollar watch, but I’m really attracted by the ring. I want the same one as Xiu Bao’s!
——I don’t know about others, but for me, a watch worth millions is just a drop in the bucket.
Qin Mo leaned on the sofa, holding his tablet, saw these comments, and typed replies.
Although he didn't know what the situation was, he could definitely support it!
Just as Qin Mo finished replying, the phone on the coffee table vibrated. Qin Mo put down the tablet, picked up the phone, and saw that it was a call from a senior executive of the company. He answered: "Hello?"
"Assistant Qin, after restarting the experiment and comparing it repeatedly, new comparison data has come out and has been sent to your mailbox. The data set marked with an 'X' is indeed problematic. The laboratory that submitted the old version of the data has also been punished. The boss is really..."
"That's enough." Qin Mo interrupted the other party's flattery: "Goodbye."
What's the point of flattering him? He has said that he can't see it, so why doesn't anyone believe it?
Looking at the hung up call, the top executives of Cota wiped the cold sweat from their foreheads. Such a tiny difference in data could actually be discovered.
Just as Special Assistant Qin said, the boss can't tolerate any sand in his eyes.
Even if it was put into production according to the initial data settings, only minor bugs would occur, which would not affect the general direction of the product and could be ignored. The boss was able to circle it out so accurately. He is simply a devil!
After restarting the laboratory to compare data this time, I’m afraid no one will dare to be perfunctory for a long time.
Half past nine.
The hot topics on the entertainment list are all about Shen Xiu endorsing VG's summer series products.
It’s hard not to see it if you just surf the Internet.
Duan Mingfei's assistant Xiao Gong looked at the trending searches and VG's official spokesperson Weibo, hesitated for a few seconds, and decided to put the tablet in front of Duan Mingfei.
Duan Mingfei hasn't checked Weibo since he saw Shen Xiu's reply to netizens' comments in writing half an hour ago.
Seeing the tablet that Xiao Gong handed over, Duan Mingfei frowned and looked at Xiao Gong: "What's the matter?"
Xiao Gong didn't dare to repeat it at all, and only said: "Brother Ming, you will understand after looking at the trending searches."
After saying this, Xiao Gong unconsciously took a few steps back, away from the center of the storm.
Duan Mingfei picked up the tablet in confusion, and without refreshing, he could see the hot search followed by "explosion" on the entertainment list.
#VC officially announces summer series spokesperson#
#Extremely Cool Starlight Black Ring#
#Explore the heart-moving moments with Shen Xiu#
#Chen Xiu Kaiser's one-time encounter#
#Juan Wangxiu's strength#
Duan Mingfei looked at the hot search topics that had popped up like mushrooms after rain without him knowing when, and his expression was stunned.
"Didn't you say that we only met once and didn't sign a contract?"
"Chen Xiu lied to me?!"
Duan Mingfei felt confused as if his cognition had been overturned.
After a few seconds of confusion, he was filled with rage, so angry that he felt like vomiting blood. He stood up suddenly and smashed the tablet to the ground out of control.
It was not enough to smash the tablet, he kicked all the chairs and vases in the studio, with Duan Mingfei gritting his teeth and shouting in anger.
"Shen! Xiu!"
Hearing the clanging sounds, Xiao Gong was glad that he had the foresight to step back a few steps, otherwise the tablet would have flown and hit him in the face.
Alas, money is hard to earn, but shit is hard to eat.
But... Chen Xiu lied to Duan Mingfei?
Xiao Gong secretly glanced at Duan Mingfei who was in a rage, and thought that what he said sounded a bit strange.
According to his observation and research on Shen Xiu these days, Shen Xiu is indifferent to everything in the world. Things that may be very important to others may be dispensable to Shen Xiu.
How could such a Shen Xiu specifically deceive Duan Mingfei?
Absolutely not!
Duan Mingfei must be overthinking it...
Wait...why does he look a bit like a cultivator?
Realizing his own weirdness, Xiao Gong shook his head in horror, shaking off the idea of "studying" from his mind.
He can't do such a thing as being in Cao's camp but his heart is with Han while receiving Duan Mingfei's salary!
Duan Mingfei vented with a dark face for a few minutes, and when he thought of Shen Xiu's clothes, his expression was shocked, as if he had discovered something surprising, and he quickly walked back to the sofa and lowered his head to pick up his mobile phone.
Duan Mingfei read Shen Xiu and VG’s official Weibo three times over and over again, with a smile on his face.
"Hahahaha I didn't expect that! I didn't expect that!"
Xiao Gong: “?”
He was gritting his teeth and wishing to tear Shen Xiu to pieces one second ago, but why did he suddenly laugh the next second?
Damn it, is Duan Mingfei going crazy because of this? Can he still receive his salary this month?
When Xiao Gong was daydreaming, he heard Duan Mingfei's voice.
"Go get the lighting for the live studio ready, I'll be right there."
Is Shen Xiu the only one who would do a live broadcast to build momentum? Oh, he can, too.
As an assistant who is on call 24 hours a day and has to work late at night, Xiao Gong accepted his fate and replied, "Okay, Brother Ming."
At ten o'clock in the evening, Duan Mingfei's fans suddenly saw the news that the real host was starting a live broadcast.
At the same time, the hot search #段鸣飞直播# rushed to the middle row with the help of the water army.
Xiao Gong looked at Duan Mingfei wearing the clothes he wore during the previous photo shoot and a prop ring, and he understood what was going on.
"Hi, good evening everyone."
"Ah? Chen Xiu? I don't know much about him. What happened to him? I just came back from outside and missed you guys, so I chatted with you guys on live broadcast~"
"Ahem..." Duan Mingfei pinched his throat and smiled apologetically at the camera: "Sorry, I finished a little late today and was blown by the wind. I think I caught a cold then."
[Dear Brother Ming, we are also heading in both directions, and we don’t envy others at all, huh! 】
[Wuwuwuming brother, thank you for your hard work]
How does an assistant do his job? Brother Ming caught a cold. This kind of assistant should be fired! 】
"It's okay, it's okay. My assistant is tired following me too. It's none of his business."
"It's not hard. I will try my best to let everyone see a better version of myself."
Xiao Gong: “…”
Doesn't Duan Mingfei feel guilty after saying these things?
[Brother Ming, this is the derivative look of the school bully Jiang Ming that was released earlier! 】
[So cool! Brother Ming went to the company to reshoot Jiang Ming’s scenes. Brother Ming has a good aesthetic sense and used his own derivative style to help the program crew reshoot! It’s all because of that 18th-tier internet celebrity. He caused trouble and dragged down the crew, forcing our Brother Ming to reshoot the show. 】
[Wait, doesn't anyone think that our brother Ming's outfit, from the black sportswear to the black ring on the index finger, looks familiar? 】
[Damn, isn’t this the same photo as the official endorsement announcement from VG next door…]
After patiently chatting for a while, Duan Mingfei finally saw the comments of the water army. He looked down at his clothes and when he looked up at the live broadcast room, he looked confused.
"The element looks familiar?"
"How come I can't understand what the darlings are saying after being busy for a few days?"
[To be honest, the outfit of VG spokesperson Chen Xiu is suspected to be a derivative style of our brother Ming, the school bully Jiang Ming. 】
[Don't be suspicious, they are all sportswear and black rings, and the rings are on the index fingers. Isn't this enough to explain the problem? 】
[Capitalists bully our Brother Ming because no one supports him, right? Sisters, protect Brother Ming! 】
Except for the internet trolls, everyone else in Duan Mingfei's live broadcast room is Duan Mingfei's fans, so their comments naturally tend to favor Duan Mingfei.
Looking at these comments, Duan Mingfei said, "Don't talk nonsense, darlings. I'll go see what's going on first."
Duan Mingfei took the tablet from his assistant in front of the live broadcast room and opened Weibo in confusion.
Later, fans in the live broadcast room saw Duan Mingfei's stunned expression: "This..."
"Cough, cough, cough..." Duan Mingfei seemed to realize something and coughed to cover up what he was about to say. Facing the camera, he said, "I didn't expect that Shen Xiu and I had the same brain circuit."
After watching Duan Mingfei's natural acting, Xiao Gong thought that if Duan Mingfei was so natural when filming, he would not have been criticized for so many years.
"Don't think too much, darlings. It's just a coincidence."
The more Duan Mingfei said this, and the more he looked like he was compromising and not daring to confront Shen Xiu, the more Ming's fans felt sorry for him.
This wave of selling misery was very successful, and fans quickly created the hot search topic #Chen Xiu’s VG endorsement style plagiarized#.
The trending search was on, and netizens who were watching the show clicked into the live broadcast room after hearing the news.
What's going on? Copycat design? 】
[Help, twists and turns, and twists and turns again. There are too many twists and turns tonight. When will this melon be ripe? Do you still want me to sleep tonight? 】
[How do you determine that the design is plagiarized? Provide evidence, otherwise it is slander. 】
[That’s right, don’t you feel guilty about it?] 】
Duan Mingfei’s fans naturally couldn’t bear to see the real person being scolded, and immediately started arguing with the internet trolls who were trying to stir up trouble.
The netizens who clicked in just wanted to eat a ripe melon so that they could sleep well, and they added fuel to the fire.
The barrage is filled with chaos.
Duan Mingfei looked at the comments with an embarrassed expression: "I just want to chat, can you please stop arguing?"
"I said it was just a coincidence."
"I didn't copy Shen Xiu's style, really not..."
Duan Mingfei raised his head and glanced at the assistant sitting across the table.
Xiao Gong sighed, and he had to take the blame again.
"Brother Ming, everyone wants to know who goes first and who goes second, how about... we release the video we shot back then?"
The comments were all in agreement with the assistant's words, and they all asked Duan Mingfei to release the time when he took this outfit.
Duan Mingfei sighed deeply and raised his hand to pinch his eyebrows.
He frowned and said helplessly: "If that's the case, let it go."
Five minutes later, Duan Mingfei's assistant played the original video and the edited version of the surveillance video from the shooting room in front of the live broadcast room.
Whether it is the shooting time in the upper corner of the video or the shooting time displayed on the surveillance screen, it shows that the shooting time of Duan Mingfei and Shen Xiu’s similar look was earlier than the official announcement of VG’s spokesperson today.
For a while, the plagiarism of the VG summer series endorsed by Shen Xiu caused a stir on the Internet.
More netizens flocked into Duan Mingfei's live broadcast room. After watching the video, the cultivators firmly believed in Shen Xiu even though the time given by Duan Mingfei was early.
[A smart student who steals people's resources halfway through, bah! 】
[Wearing a black ring while wearing sportswear is considered plagiarism? It's so funny, my brother wore it earlier than your giegie, did my brother copy your giegie? Don't be too funny! 】
[Isn't this a very common outfit? There are a lot of boys in sports schools wearing this, especially during physical education classes. You can see them everywhere. They all go out earlier than your giegie~]
There was a sound of water splashing in the bathroom, which covered up the slight vibration of the phone that was charging on the bedside table.
A few minutes later, Shen Xiu finished his shower, stepped out of the bathroom, saw the cell phone constantly vibrating on the gray desktop, and strode over.
Shen Xiu picked up the phone with his slender fingers and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that it was a call from his friend.
Although Shen Xiu would resist answering the phone when it rang, when he thought it was a familiar team member, Shen Xiu gritted his teeth and picked it up: "Shang Yu, what's the matter?"
Because he was not used to answering the phone, not only was Shen Xiu's voice stiff, but his posture as he stood by the bed to answer the phone was also stiff.
Shang Yu heard Shen Xiu's familiar calm voice and asked in confusion, "Didn't your agent tell you?"
broker?
Who could have imagined that he was the only one in charge of his "Xiu Xiu Studio"?
Shen Xiu replied awkwardly: "I don't have an agent."
Business metaphor: "......"
Chen Xiu really does mind having others interfere in his life, and his desire to control his life is so strong that he doesn't even want an agent.
"Duan Mingfei said that you copied his style. You can find out the details by logging on to Weibo."
Shen Xiu: “?”
Shen Xiu thanked him blankly: “Thank you.”
Shang Yu felt more relieved when he heard Shen Xiu's still calm voice, as he was confident at the moment. After all, they had seen with their own eyes what Shen Xiu wore that day, and the timeline was earlier than the video released by Duan Mingfei.
After hanging up the phone, Shen Xiu opened Weibo.
Ten minutes later, Shen Xiu finished looking at the shooting time of the video and photos sent by Duan Mingfei.
Chen Xiu recalled the time and mood when he wore that outfit and was completely confused. What confused Chen Xiu even more was that a common outfit could be considered plagiarism. He didn't understand.
After reading the hot search, Shen Xiu naturally saw the fans' insistence on believing in his comments, and forwarded Duan Mingfei's Weibo without hesitation, and raised sincere questions from the bottom of his soul.
@Chen Xiu: Are you okay? //@Duan Mingfei [Video]
good evening!
