Chapter 124 Two in One
The publicity for HX's guild tournament in July was far more intense than any previous guild tournament.
Probably due to the popularity of a PK match that won tens of millions of points during Jiang Linyi’s personal broadcast, after the end of the weekly star competition on Sunday, there were various speculations on Doumao about what kind of results Jiang Linyi could achieve in the July guild competition.
Most people think that in the June guild competition, when there was no competition between Big Brother and Jiang Linyi's family and the rewards were very ordinary, they still won more than 20 million points of votes. This month, Jiang Linyi's family must have at least 10 million votes to start with, right?
You know, HX was very determined in this guild competition. Compared with the previous championship rewards, not only did they double the rewards, but they also added a cash reward.
The cash prize for the champion is 10W, the runner-up is 5W, and the third place is 3W. The fifth and sixth place also have 1 W.
The cost of the cash reward alone is 200,000 yuan, which will be divided up according to the ratio. If the company wants to recoup the cost of the cash reward, the top five votes combined will need a minimum of 4.5 million points.
The wool comes from the sheep. HX has made such a big fuss, there will definitely be a lot of tickets for this guild tournament.
As the anchor of the group broadcast, Jiang Linyi has a limited number of individual broadcasts, but her daily rankings for individual broadcasts always start at tens of millions of votes.
The level 16 upgrade ceremony for the big brothers was just held on Friday, and the guild competition is coming. With such a good opportunity, the tickets for the big brothers and sisters must be worth tens of millions, right?
The two words 01 are used as the traffic password. Basically, any cat-related post that is tagged with these two numbers will have a lot of comments below it.
Under the discussion video about HX's July Guild Tournament, passers-by began to predict that Jiang Linyi would definitely win first place in the July Guild Tournament, and even set a performance target of no less than 20 million votes for her in advance.
When Xiaoqi read the comments from all parties in the comment section to Jiang Linyi one by one, the other girls in the dance studio stopped dancing and turned their eyes to Jiang Linyi.
Today is Monday, and there are only two days left before the guild competition on Wednesday. Basically, a few days before the guild competition starts, every anchor in their respective fan groups will have some mental preparation for the voting situation this time.
Whether the older brothers and sisters come to sell tickets or not, even if they don’t notify us in advance, they will at least give us some hints. As for how many votes individual fans can cast, a minimum value can also be roughly calculated based on the daily turnover and weekly competition results.
Jiang Linyi pretended not to hear and continued practicing dancing.
Xiao Qi was closer to Jiang Linyi than the others. She stepped forward, put her arm around her, and shook her arm coquettishly, "My dear sister 01, can you give me a hint? This is it. This live broadcast room has started to bet on your July results."
Xiao Qi handed the phone to Jiang Linyi, and her phone page happened to be showing the live broadcast room of a gossip account called Doumaotuanbosudie.
Nowadays, on the Doumao live broadcast platform, the game times of the three most popular group broadcasts and guild competitions are basically the same.
However, among the older brothers and sisters who are the host of various group dances, there are very few who are as focused on guarding one family as the older brothers and sisters of Jiang Linyi's family. Most of them may be at your house today and come to my house tomorrow.
The procedures for each guild competition are similar. Basically, there is an opening performance first, followed by the first round of free voting to select the top 40. After the top 40 are announced, they will take the microphone one by one to canvass for votes.
This process makes it impossible to determine the time when each anchor will use the microphone to canvass votes. Therefore, when it came to the guild competition, several families tacitly chose different dates to prevent the situation where some brothers and sisters would be unable to get tickets in time because of running to both places.
Today is the FT's guild competition. In the Douba Tuanbo Express live broadcast room, there is a voting applet on the left, which lists the predictions of each FT anchor for this month's guild competition.
The HOT guild competition will be held tomorrow, and their voting procedure is on the next page of the mini program.
HX will be on the day after tomorrow, and the voting mini program will be on the next page.
However, due to Jiang Linyi's large traffic, Doumao Tuanbo Express specially opened a separate page for Jiang Linyi.
It’s different from other companies, whose predictions are all about guessing who will win.
In addition to guessing who will win the championship, HX also gave Jiang Linyi a separate page, setting up a guess as to what her final monthly exam score would be in this guild competition.
The options are set as less than 10 million, 10 million to 15 million, 15 million to 20 million, 20 million to 30 million, 30 million to 40 million, and the last option is more than 40 million.
Originally, there were only the first four options. These two additional options were added after many viewers in the Doumao Tuanbo Express live broadcast room saw that Jiang Linyi had won nearly 30 million votes in total last month, and after various discussions, they discussed it.
When Xiaoqi handed Jiang Linyi the phone, the host in the live broadcast room, who was wearing a mask covering most of his face, was still explaining the prediction for Jiang Linyi's results.
"The host personally prefers the option of 20 to 30 million." The host tapped the electronic screen in the live broadcast room. Unexpectedly, on his mini-program interface, the highest final score for Jiang Linyi was 10 to 15 million.
"I know many fans will say that just because 01 was able to win so many votes last month doesn't mean they can win so many votes this month. And the reason why they got so many votes is that Xiao Yunduo had the rich man Yao Shen in front of them to encourage them to vote. Yao Shen and Mao Wang are good friends. They will definitely discuss this guild competition privately and won't win too much."
"If you can imagine this, then HX must have imagined it too, right? So this month, HX suddenly increased the rewards. In addition to doubling the rewards for the first and second place, the rewards for the third place have also been doubled. This is the rhythm of letting the big brothers of each company fight each other. Although the first and second place are reserved by 01 and Xiao Yunduo, it's hard to say who will be the third place."
"As long as the third place can fight hard and the votes move up a little bit, the second place will definitely move up. Yao Shen is also a famous rich man, and the gap between him and the third place is definitely not a little bit, and the same is true for 01. In this way, I think it is very likely to break 20 million!"
When the host in the live broadcast room said this, several girls in the dance studio gathered around.
Indeed, the predictions of this live broadcast room have generated a lot of interest. Even Tangtang and Siyue took out their mobile phones in front of Jiang Linyi, searched for this person's live broadcast room, clicked on the page of his live broadcast room mini program, and started voting.
This small program of Doumao Group Broadcast Express is bound to the Doumao platform. Voting requires Doumao coins, and accordingly, you will also receive Doumao coins as rewards after the final results come out.
The odds of these options will be adjusted every hour according to the results of the options. Now the lowest odds are 10 million to 15 million points, which has the largest number of voters. The odds are 15 million to 20 million and 20 million to 30 million points.
The odds for the two options below 10 million points and 30 million to 40 million points are the same, and the votes are second to last, while the odds for more than 40 million points are the highest, but there has not been a single vote so far.
"You know what, this anchor's speculation does make some sense." Xiao Qi nodded repeatedly after listening.
Last month, although Jiang Linyi's family finally won a vote worth nearly 30 million, in the end, Xiao Yunduo and Jiang Linyi's families did not end up fighting. From the company's perspective, it is definitely a pity.
But the eldest brothers of the two families are friends with each other and cannot fight each other. Also, no other dark horse anchor has suddenly emerged in the company this month, so the championship and runner-up spots have basically been decided in advance.
In this case, it is more difficult for the company to get money from the big brother's pocket.
Therefore, doubling the rewards for the top five and increasing their competitiveness will increase the votes for the top five, and the competition between the third and fourth place will increase the votes for the third place, thus forcing the second place to score higher.
If the second place improves, the gap between the first and second place will definitely widen.
Jiang Linyi knocked Xiaoqi's head in annoyance and said, "I don't have any inside information about the vote, but I have another inside information. Erdu's fan sign will be level 16 in about a week. If you don't practice dancing well now, you will see what you will do when the upgrade ceremony comes!"
The information about Erdu’s fan sign was told by 921 and Jiang Linyi. Jiang Linyi’s family already has two Kunling Hearts. Among the other anchors in the live broadcast room, the one who upgraded the fastest was Erdu, who had the most votes in Xiaoqi’s family.
Even though Erdu complained that Xiaoqi was not good at dancing, he was present at every weekly competition and single-handedly helped Xiaoqi get second place in several weekly competitions.
After hearing what Jiang Linyi said, Xiao Qi let out a wail.
In last month's guild competition, the entire Sweetheart Girls group performed quite well, so this month's guild competition was held in the Sweetheart Girls live broadcast room, and their group also had a group dance performance in the exhibition match session before the start of this month's guild competition.
As the team's weak link in dancing, Xiaoqi had better results than everyone else in the monthly exam last month, so he was the deputy C position in this dance. He was the person with the most movements except Jiang Linyi.
"No! Sister 01~~Good sister~please help me learn this dance moves again..." Xiao Qi pulled Jiang Linyi in front of the floor-length mirror and hurriedly tried to cram for the exam.
As a result, other people were too embarrassed to talk about this topic anymore, and naturally, the focus of the dance studio shifted to dancing.
At two o'clock in the afternoon, FT's July guild competition started on time, and the voting channel for the guild competition in the Doumao Group Broadcasting Express Room FT was also closed.
At the same time, a rumor came from nowhere, saying that it was reliable information from the internal group of HX female anchors, and 01 himself stamped it personally, and this month's monthly exam results will definitely exceed 35 million points!
In an instant, in the voting app in the Doumao Tuanbo Express live broadcast room, the number of votes for the options ranging from 3,000 to 40 million points soared to the first place.
In the past, this type of voting only had prediction options such as first place, second place, third place, top three, top five, top ten, and top twenty.
Jiang Linyi was the first person to propose the specific ticket quota option.
As a result, such news suddenly came out, and many bystanders became curious. They took the screenshots of the internal chat that was supposedly stamped by Jiang Linyi herself, and went to the cat-playing accounts of Jiang Linyi and several other older brothers and sisters to ask whether the older brothers and sisters had made any promises.
There were also some internet trolls who took the opportunity to stir up trouble in the comment sections of the videos discussing this HX Guild Tournament.
There are still 48 hours before the guild competition begins. With such a chaotic pace, it seems that Jiang Linyi's championship with 35 million points has already been decided.
As the host of the group broadcast, no fans have ever dared to make such a high-profile statement before the guild competition starts, saying that the guild competition this month will definitely get a certain number of votes. Unless the big brothers and sisters themselves publicly state how many tickets they have prepared for this guild competition.
After all, if you want to have a good ranking, you still have to rely mainly on the votes of the big brothers and sisters. Once the number of tickets is announced, doesn’t that mean the host wants to take money out of Big Brother’s pocket?
Anyone who has watched the group broadcast can see that there is someone deliberately setting the pace.
I don’t know what HX was thinking. In the live broadcast room of HX’s subordinates participating in this guild tournament, under the promotional video for this guild tournament that they released, none of these comments that incited trouble were deleted. Instead, they were pushed to the front one by one.
On the elf side, under the organization of several administrators including Mint, Water Melody and Bubble, efforts have been made to fight against black comments in these comment sections, but the effect has not been very obvious.
Just like that, time passed quickly and it was Wednesday.
At 1:55 p.m., during the tense and exciting backstage waiting session, Jiang Linyi suddenly received a WeChat message from Qingwei.
[Qingwei: Have you seen this vote? ]
[Qingwei: (Forward the voting app)]
The mini program forwarded by Qingwei was exactly the voting mini program in the live broadcast room of the Funny Cat Group Broadcast that Xiaoqi had shown to Jiang Linyi two days ago.
Jiang Linyi clicked on it and saw the voting interface for the final results of her guild competition today.
[01: …]
[01: How come you also saw this, Brother Qingwei? ]
[Qingwei: □□Invest in this and earn some pocket money. ]
[Qingwei: (screenshot.jpg)]
The option marked in the Qingwei screenshot is the one with 40 million points.
In order to ensure security, the highest odds of the voting app called "Domao" are linked to the total number of votes.
For example, for Jiang Linyi's voting options this time, the highest odds of 40 million points are 500, which means that if you bet 1 Doomao Coin, you can get 500 Doomao Coins if you win.
But similarly, the maximum bet amount is 500 cat coins.
Each Doumao Coin counts as one vote. When Qingwei told Jiang Linyi about this, Jiang Linyi witnessed with her own eyes that the votes for this option jumped from 0 to 3,500.
[01: Didn’t we agree on 3500? ]
35 million points was decided early on.
Once this condition is met, Jiang Linyi can terminate the contract.
[Qingwei: Remember to use your main account to vote. Didn’t everyone say that you meant 3500? How can we let them underestimate our family's strength? ]
[Qingwei: You can vote in person to clarify the matter and earn some pocket money at the same time. ]
What Qingwei said makes sense.
With only two minutes left, Jiang Linyi still listened to Qingwei and bet 500 cat coins.
As soon as she finished voting, the staff waiting in the backstage reminded Jiang Linyi to get ready to go on stage.
At 2 pm, the HX July Guild Tournament officially begins!
As the champion of last month's guild competition, after the host finished his opening remarks, the camera in the live broadcast room fell on the center of the stage.
Several screens blocked the figures of the girls performing the opening dance, and only the outlines of a dozen or so good figures could be vaguely seen.
As the opening music started playing, several girls standing behind the screen began to twist their bodies, and the shadows appearing on the screen also twisted along with them.
[No need to guess, the girl in the short skirt on the third right must be our Yang Bao! 】
[Ahhhhhh, Olaf’s body is killing me! So many silhouettes are instantly recognizable! 】
[Needless to say, our Xu Xu's short hair is very easy to recognize. 】
[Oh, it’s so hard to guess. It took me 0.0001 seconds to guess that the one in the middle is our No. 1 treasure! 】
Compared with previous opening dances, it is obvious that a lot of thought went into the choreography of this opening dance.
After the screen blocked several hosts, the stage lighting made the silhouettes of each host fall on the screen, making the silhouettes dance, which added some novelty than previous group dances.
When the music reached its climax, the camera began to zoom in and the female anchors jumped from behind the screen to in front of the screen one by one.
Jiang Linyi, the lead dancer, appeared at the end.
The others came out from behind the screen in groups, but she appeared alone.
The rhythm of the music changed, the female anchors changed their formation, and Jiang Linyi was surrounded by the stars, sitting in the center.
[Oh my god, I finally understood what it means that behind a pretty face there is an even prettier face. 】
[To be honest, I am not a fan of 01, but after watching this opening dance today, I am going to become a fan of 01 because of her looks. 】
[The C position really deserves to be the C position, she is so beautiful! 】
[Wow woo woo 01 baby, you are going to make me faint with your beauty! 】
At HX's July guild tournament, after this opening dance, the number of online participants exceeded 200,000!
This is an unprecedented grand occasion!
The process is similar to that of the June Guild Tournament, with a performance segment at the beginning, from the first place in last month's Guild Tournament to the top 40, there will be performance segments.
The top ten students at the beginning of the test have separate individual programs, while the next 11 to 40 are either duets or group dances of three or five people.
After almost all the people and teams had finished performing all their programs, it was time for the participants of this guild competition to walk the runway.
At this time, it is the free voting stage of the audition. After the show, the top 40 will be announced.
At this moment, several gossip live broadcast rooms were broadcasting HX's guild competition, and the anchors were also discussing enthusiastically what the situation was like for the top 40 in the free ticketing phase of this guild competition.
In the live broadcast room of Doumao Tuanbo Express, Tuanbo Express looked at the voting applet that had been closed and felt a little curious.
This option with 40 million points did not have a single vote within three days after the voting app was opened. He even took a casual glance half an hour ago and it was still 0. Who were the people who came to cast so many votes at the last minute?
Before the final guessing time ends, even the initiator of the guessing vote cannot see the information of these voters. Only after the final voting is over can the initiator of the vote see the specific account in the background.
Soon, the performance session ended, and after the host finished talking a lot, the catwalk session began.
Jiang Linyi, last month's champion, was the first to appear.
I don’t know if it’s because this month’s guild competition was broadcast in the Sweetheart Girl’s live broadcast room. After the live broadcast room started today, the accounts of several older brothers and sisters in Jiang Linyi’s family were already logged into the live broadcast room.
These big brothers and sisters came as soon as the performance started, and even during other people's performances, their accounts were still high in the VIP seats.
Different from last month's team-building activity where fans received various gifts, after the host announced the start of the fashion show, the older brothers and sisters in Jiang Linyi's family began to compete in ordering gifts.
[Black Iron Hammer Gift 01 Kunling Heart X1X2X3X4...X10] (Cat Playing Points 300,000)
[A little Ningyin gives away 01 Carnival X1X2X3X4...X10] (Cat Playing Points 300,000)
[Green Field Gift 01 Kunling Heart X1X2X3X4...X10] (Cat Playing Points 300,000)
[Uncle Durian presents 01 Dragon Girl X1X2X3X4...X10] (Cat Playing Points 999990)
[Qingwei gives away 01 Starlight Guardian X1X2X3X4...X10] (Cat Fun Points 999990)
[LZL gives away 01 Carnival X1X2X3X4...X10] (Cat Playing Points 300,000)
[H Free 01 Kunpeng Wanli X1X2X3X4...X10] (Cat Playing Points 1000000)
The gifts from these older brothers and sisters came one after another, and they were so many and so big. The special effects animations of these gifts were displayed for a long time, and some of them even had vibration effects when the APP was disconnected, which dazzled the onlookers in the live broadcast room.
[My mom?] Are the special effects in this live broadcast room so powerful? 】
[01’s big brother and big sister are really awesome. I thought Carnival was the most expensive gift for cats, but it turns out there are so many things I don’t know. 】
[I know that Carnival is not the most expensive, but I never thought that there would be so many gifts more expensive than Carnival. 】
[Although I was mentally prepared, I was still shocked by the special effects in the live broadcast room. 】
【01This company is really powerful! 】
Just like last time, each person's catwalk session lasted about two minutes.
By the time Jiang Linyi stepped down, this round of Jiang Linyi's free voting ended, and Jiang Linyi's votes had reached an astonishing 21 million points.
Seeing the value displayed on the group broadcast points applet in the live broadcast room, not only the entire live broadcast room was shocked, but also the viewers who voted in the live broadcast room of the Funny Cat Group Broadcast Express were wailing.
Most of them voted for the option of 15 million to 20 million points. Now the free vote has exceeded 20 million, which means that these people gave it away for free!
