Initial C Curse
Post title: The initial C of "Super Idol" is a surprise, definitely someone that fans of the show didn't expect!
Main Building:
This year’s initial C is Yi Jingchen.
Adults, times have changed!
I never thought that someone who is both useless at singing and dancing could be the C in the first round. I just don't understand your talent shows...
1L: WTF? Who???
I don’t have time to hang out in the live broadcast room, I only watch the main episode of “Si” every week.
I remember Yi Jingchen's debut performance was pretty disappointing. He had a hoarse voice, couldn't dance, and didn't seem to show any rap. It was already a shame that he was admitted to Class A without any reason, but now he is ranked as the C in the first round?
What's the matter? It's really a victory for the royal family!
4L: First floor, don't even vote in this year's draft, just let Emperor Yi ascend the throne!
8L: Calm down ladies upstairs, I'm in the live studio for two to three hours every day, and Yi Jingchen has improved a lot since his debut. Getting into Class A and getting a C in the initial stage doesn't seem like a scam (I'm not a Guawang fan, just my personal opinion, if you criticize me, you're right)
13L: On the 8th floor, you thought that if you put on some armor, others wouldn’t be able to tell that you are a navy hired by Prince Yi?
He is such a loser, he was in Class A for the first stage, Class A for the theme song, and he stood in the center position in the MV, 666 awesome plus!
The royal families in the past didn’t dare to do this. Who would believe that there is no shady dealings?
18L: After seeing the Royal Club's collective failure this year, I thought the draft was finally fair, but then I was disgusted by Ming Huang! Who is protecting Yi Jingchen? Is his backer so powerful?
22L: Some people on this forum are going too far, aren't they? Right off the bat, they say, "I haven't watched the livestream, but I think there's something fishy going on." Who's covering your eyes and cutting off your internet connection to prevent you from watching the livestream?
The first stage of Gua Wang, the theme song, and the selection of the initial C were all broadcast live. I feel like there is evidence of a conspiracy!
We are all here for a talent show, do you really think anyone can't see your intentions?
In the early stages of the talent show, the theme song MV was the hottest. Melon King getting the initial C spot was sure to draw a wave of traffic. You guys wanted to protect him, but you couldn't find any negative information, so you just slapped the "royal family" T-tag on him. Are you trying to kill him off early?
27L: I agree with the sisters on the 22nd floor, I think Yi Jingchen is the emperor’s dumping evidence!
Chenchen ranked 22nd last time and couldn't even make it to the debut position.
The sisters in my family are all new fans who have just joined the game and have not yet learned how to vote.
You keep calling Yi Jingchen a loser and a loser, and curse him to be eliminated in the first round. Now you treat us as your imaginary enemies?
30L: Sister Chen, calm down. We didn't understand the situation. We originally thought that the initial C would definitely be Tutu or Xingxing, but they were not selected. The fans must be hard to accept.
36L: Are you crazy? Why did you drag Tutu and Xingxing into this when you were targeting Yi Jingchen?
The two big TOPs are busy voting for their younger brother. Do they want to make Yi Jingchen stop being our fan? Don’t they feel embarrassed?
41L: Tutu Mama fans didn’t want to start the conversation, so some people should stop using the Spring and Autumn style to divert the conflict.
Anyone who has seen the voting for the initial C knows that Tutu didn’t get the initial C because of Yi Jingchen?
He was clearly being opposed by his 'good senior', none of his five former teammates voted for him!!!
Do you really think that Sister Rabbit is a fool, and that she would put the blame on King Gua just because you fooled her?
45L: Xingjia sister, let me say this. Actually, my Xingxing didn't intend to compete for the primary C position. When Xingxing was competing for the primary C position, her performance was worse than the theme song test. It was obvious that she was just slacking off.
49L: Xingxing is underage, so the pressure of being the center is really a bit high. And you all know the curse of being the first center~
53L: A new fan would like to ask, what is the 'initial C curse'?
57L: Back to the 53rd floor, "Super Idol" belongs to the 'S' series of talent shows. The S-style talent shows all have a rule: the initial C is not the final C.
For example, in last year's "Shine Star", the second-place contestant had tens of millions of traffic before the competition and was called "half of the country".
Because she stood at the center position in the theme song MV, millions of fans worked hard to vote but still couldn't keep her as the final center.
64L: Ahhh, I watched last year’s draft!
The S-series talent show curse is really poisonous. No wonder Du Xingxing wants to avoid it. The entertainment industry believes in metaphysics the most.
It shouldn't matter to the King of Melons, he's only ranked 22nd at the moment, there's no need to worry!
For example, the Chinese national football team will not worry about ranking too well in the Asian competition and not winning the World Cup!
68L: Hahahaha sister, you are even more mean than the King of Guardiola! After all, Chenchen is still better than the Chinese national football team, right?
73L: Haha, what’s this ‘initial C curse’?
Don't change the subject. Even if the top performers deliberately avoided the initial C position, could it be that "Si," boasting of its "strongest performance ever," couldn't find another lead dancer? Did they have to push a useless singer and dancer into the role?
77L: +1, the waste station C must be terrible, I can't imagine what the effect is
81L: There is no need to use your poor imagination. I am referring to Louis Jingchen’s fans. There is a group dance where he is the center. After watching it, who would dare to say that the King of Melons is not worthy of being the center?
.
Before the game, Yi Jingchen was a complete amateur and had no fan base.
The news station registered an account for trainee reporters, and the number of followers barely exceeded three digits, most of whom were colleagues.
During the ten days of recording "Super Idol", he gradually gained 20,000 to 30,000 fans, but most of them were there to watch the show, and a small number were just passers-by who liked him.
There are very few truly die-hard fans.
What's more, the fans have to spend money and time squatting on the cold way home from get off work every day to take pictures.
Searching Yi Jingchen’s fan circle, I found only one fan club member.
The forum users followed the instructions and found the personal homepage of the station sister, and found that her ID was:
@Homemade silver gradient
If you don’t know, you might think he is a pet blogger.
Clicking into the homepage, there are only a few Weibo posts. The top section does not contain any PB sales or peripheral crowdfunding, only a clear sentence:
'The cutest little silver tabby in the world @Yi Jingchen.'
Scroll down the page twice and you will see the latest Weibo post, which is a video posted after the primary C campaign ended.
During the entire theme song stage, fans from various clubs stayed at the recording base and shot countless videos, which the show fans have long been tired of watching.
However, this video is different.
It does not focus the camera on the selected trainees alone. Instead, it chooses the best shooting angle to record the entire scene and include everyone in the picture.
At the beginning of the video, the sky was a little cloudy.
Yi Jingchen ran to the doorway closer to the camera, leaned forward and half-crouched, gesturing to the trainees behind him, "Let's begin."
Du Xingxing, who was standing in the front row, shook her colorful mushroom hair and mumbled in response, "Let's start, let's start."
Yi Jingchen chuckled, pressed the play button, and quickly returned to the center of the square.
The accompaniment of "Super pick" sounded, and Yi Jingchen got ready.
All the people standing on his left and right and beside him seemed to be following him, and they were making the preparatory movements for the theme song in an orderly manner.
The moment Yi Jingchen raised his face and smiled.
The sun finally broke free from the confinement of the sky, and its warm light shone on him.
There was a gleam in Yi Jingchen's eyes, bright and beautiful, making people unable to look away.
The haters who previously shouted that "Yi Jingchen doesn't deserve the C position" shut up at the same time after watching the full video.
No matter how many opinions they have, they must admit at this moment——
Yi Jingchen Station C is perfect!
With his looks, if he stood in other places, it would cause the center of the stage to shift.
In addition, the fan club released a live shot of Yi Jingchen singing the theme song.
Anyone who sees this will find it hard to believe that this is the level that a new trainee who has only practiced for 8 days can reach.
Even if there is a tiny, insignificant flaw, it can make everyone's lips curl up when they see him, washing away all the hostility.
Half an hour later, the entry #易景琛初C# became a hot search, and the number of views of the video shot by @家养银切层 also increased rapidly.
Yi Jingchen's personal account has attracted a lot of fans.
Overnight, the number of followers exceeded 50,000, reaching the middle level of this year's trainees.
Passersby who paid a little attention to the draft, in addition to praising "this year's early C looks so good", also teased him with the early C curse and congratulated Yi Jingchen for losing the final C in advance.
Joking aside, no one takes the curse seriously.
With Yi Jingchen's current ranking and strength, can he get the final C position in his dreams?
To borrow the words of a forum netizen: If he gets the final C, the Chinese national football team will be able to win the World Cup!
Even fans who have just become fans of Yi Jingchen do not take the initial C curse seriously.
The only one who cares about spells is...
"ah?!!!"
"Beginning C is destined to never get the final C? There's actually this curse?"
Before filming the "Super Pick" MV, Yi Jingchen, who had just dragged his exhausted body out of Gu Sijun's office, felt completely unwell!!!
[A useless cat with a lost soul.jpg]
God is my witness, he got the initial C position with a slight advantage, and he knew that his level was too poor and he was not worthy of the position.
So he played in the small dark room extra hard, almost without stopping from yesterday until now, and he didn't even have the energy to spare for Gu Sijun.
As the dance teacher of "Super Idol", Gu Sijun frowned tightly when facing the little losers chosen by everyone.
But the result was already determined, and he couldn't let Yi Jingchen go and embarrass himself.
After the theme song assessment was over, Gu Sijun dragged the person to his office overnight and taught him seriously for more than ten hours using the standards of a professional dancer.
It wasn't until the next morning that Yi Jingchen completely mastered the interlude movements.
During this period, apart from a short nap, Yi Jingchen was not allowed to rest at all.
Yi Jingchen was so tired that he became a useless cat without dreams. He struggled to climb out of the boss's small dark room, and suddenly he saw the melon about himself being on the hot search, as well as the so-called "initial C curse".
[Help!]
[If there is such a curse, why didn't anyone warn me?]
——No wonder the requirements of the garbage system are so harsh, but I don’t force myself to get the initial C.
Guagua muttered weakly, "I was going to remind the host, but you told me to shut up... boohoo!"
Yi Jingchen: ...?
Well, the culprit was myself.
His eyes were filled with despair, as if he saw a future where he would drop out of school.
It turns out that in the past, no matter how strong or popular the S series's starting Carry was, none of them became the final Carry!!!
What a vicious curse!
"Give up, I don't want to work hard anymore." Yi Jingchen slumped over and leaned against the wall next to him. "Why did I choose C in the first place?"
"Host, think positively~" Qua Qua comforted, "The so-called 'curse' is nothing but your human superstition. What if it doesn't come true for you?"
"How is that possible? Didn't I hear them say that in the previous twenty or so S-series auditions, no initial C became the final C. Even the contestant who had tens of millions of traffic last year was defeated by the curse." Yi Jingchen felt very desperate when he thought of his insignificant advantage.
To him, the word "curse" sounded like a flag in anime, which would definitely come true as long as the conditions were triggered.
[It's hopeless, just give up.]
As soon as Yi Jingchen had this thought, the staff sister immediately called his name.
"Yi Jingchen, come over for rehearsal!"
"The other contestants are ready and waiting for you."
"Okay!" Yi Jingchen opened the coffin and stood up, instantly perking up.
[Let’s take a break from playing badly and focus on filming a good MV first.]
[I can’t let down the friends who voted for me~]
Yi Jingchen hurried to the stage for shooting the theme song MV and found that the stage was a large triangle made up of five triangular areas.
Class A is located at the vertex of the triangle.
And his position is at the top of the top, facing the host position.
Even the slightest flaw in shooting will inevitably affect the overall effect.
Yi Jingchen walked to his position according to the ground signs. He couldn't help feeling nervous and fell into a new round of self-doubt.
[What should I do? Can I dance well?]
"Yi Jingchen!" Du Xingwei, who was standing nearby, came over, stood on tiptoe and hooked his arm around Yi Jingchen's shoulder. "You're so slow! We've all been waiting for you!"
With the exception of Yi Jingchen's position, the other contestants' positions were basically based on their re-evaluation scores, and the MV director then made minor adjustments based on height and symmetry.
Du Xingwei scored 100 points and Tian Xitu scored 99 points. They undoubtedly occupied the guardian positions, staying behind Yi Jingchen on the left and right respectively.
Yi Jingchen replied dejectedly, "Sorry, I was just practicing dancing in Instructor Gu's small dark room."
"What's wrong with you?" Tian Xitu also came over and felt that Yi Jingchen was in a strange state.
I was obviously very happy about being elected as Primary C yesterday, but after being tortured by Gu Sijun all night, even my tail was drooping.
[Could it be that Instructor Gu really attacked Yi Jingchen?]
[Even though Yi Jingchen is cute...]
"It has nothing to do with Instructor Gu." Yi Jingchen quickly interrupted their thoughts and explained gloomily, "I came out of the little dark room and heard them talking about the 'Beginner C Curse'. Do you know it?"
"I know!" Du Xingwei nodded.
Tian Xitu added, “All the trainees who came to participate in the audition should know this.”
Yi Jingchen: ???
[Am I the only one who knows nothing?!]
[I am such a fool!]
Yi Jingchen stared at them with his eyes wide open, "So, is it really because of the curse that you didn't want to be C in the first place?"
"What are you talking about?" Tian Xitu glanced at him coldly. "I don't believe in curses. Besides, I've always been ranked second. They say I have the 'eternal runner-up curse,' which might offset the 'initial C curse.' So, I gave it my all in the initial C race, but you still won."
[Woohoo! Hearing the curse of "eternal second place" from Bunny's own mouth, Mommy is about to break!]
[Tian Xitu! You don't have any curse on you! That idiot Ye Xuan colluded with the rich and powerful to steal your first place. You should have been first!]
[Forget about the duck-raising companies! As long as Tutu successfully forms a group, his contract will belong to the limited group. When the limited group expires, his five-year contract with the 48 series will also expire! We must work hard to give Tutu a high position and let him move to a bigger stage, so he doesn't have to go back to the 48 series' crappy theater.]
[Go, go, go! Bunny Mom, get busy! Tian Xitu is aiming for the center position, don’t go back to the small theater! ]
[Off topic, I was really struck by Tutu's personality. He admitted that he gave it his all and lost with dignity, without even mentioning the A-vote issue with his former teammate.]
[Back to the previous thread, because Tutu didn't think his original company would vote for him. He's used to being ostracized. Luckily, I met Gua Wang at Si, otherwise, I would have been dragged to death by those ungrateful 48 series bastards.]
[Mother Rabbit thanks Yi Jingchen. Let's walk on the flower path together, my two brothers~]
"I believe in the curse of the first C!" Du Xingwei leaned over from the other side, his face full of seriousness. "The curse of the first C really works! The S-series talent shows have been held for over twenty years, and not a single first C has become the final C!"
Tian Xitu looked at him, "So, you did it on purpose?"
"No, no." Du Xingwei waved his hands like a fan. "Actually, the company's deadline for my debut hasn't arrived yet, so I don't have any KPIs yet. 'Si' is my first announcement, and my seniors told me to relax and enjoy the process. So I don't have too many thoughts about the final C position. I also tried hard to get the initial C position yesterday... But the production team dragged out the process too long, recording from morning to afternoon, and then..."
Du Xingwei rubbed his lower abdomen and said pitifully, "I was hungry during the campaign and couldn't move. I didn't mean to slack off on purpose."
"Uh." Yi Jingchen blinked, never expecting this to be the reason. He reminded him quietly, "Why didn't you come to me?"
"Huh? You secretly took me to dinner?"
"No." Yi Jingchen plotted loudly, "I can steal milk candy from the milk-drying man for you."
Mu Gan: ???
[Can you steal something without telling the person behind their back?]
Such an unreliable plan actually received a positive response from Du Xingwei.
"Okay!" Du Xingwei said expectantly, "Let's go together next time!"
【Hahahahaha! Look at Nai Gan's expression!】
[It's hard to prevent a thief from roaming around you day and night. Are you sweating profusely? ]
Du Xingxing is so cute! A mom-fan favorite! I don't believe the forums saying he deliberately avoided the primary C role. Could that idiotic little brother be so calculating?
[Clarification on behalf of Xingxing: The cub wasn't paddling, he was just hungry. Is it wrong to have a fast metabolism during growth?]
[So, in this case... Melon King deserves the title of first C.]
[+1, although there are quite a few favors, but a win is a win. Since they are royals, let's save some money.]
[Please don't bother trying to sow discord between Melon King and Star Rabbit. My younger brother accepts defeat and we respect the outcome.]
[u1s1, the melon king standing in the middle is quite pleasing to the eye. And someone watched the live broadcast in the instructors' lounge last night, he really has been practicing. Looking forward to the final MV.]
The MV crew set up the camera and laid the shooting track, but did not start filming immediately.
Based on the experience of shooting previous theme songs, filming 105 brothers dancing at the same time will inevitably require a lot of coordination time to ensure that they dance basically in unison.
In order to save energy, the director and the photographer stayed in the rest area and planned to let them practice for three to five hours first.
Wait until you find the feeling of dancing in unison before officially starting filming.
The stage controller signaled all the trainees to be quiet and started playing the accompaniment of "Super pick".
The younger brother on the field stood up instantly, and performed the corresponding movements in unison with the rhythm of the accompaniment.
The director, who was slacking off in the lounge, opened his mouth wider and wider, almost enough to fit a fist in.
Who can tell him why the trainees were dancing together for the first time this year and the scene was so coordinated?
He has been shooting theme song MVs for so many years, and previous contestants may not be able to achieve this effect even after practicing for a whole day!
The director could no longer sit still and rushed to the dance teacher to ask him how he did it.
"It has nothing to do with me." The dance teacher immediately denied it. "It's mainly because they've been doing square dance outside during training, so they're already used to dancing in groups."
"So there's such a method?" The director team nodded thoughtfully. "Which planner came up with it?"
"It has nothing to do with the planning. If the production team forced them to do square dancing, they would definitely be scolded to death." The dance teacher pointed to Yi Jingchen, who was full of energy in the middle. "He took the lead, and the other trainees followed."
The director looked over and stared at Yi Jingchen.
It turns out to be primary C.
That was a great help!
Since he leaves the photographer with a lot of time for planning and coordination, I must take some beautiful shots later!
"OK, everyone, take a break for ten minutes, fix your hair and makeup, and then we'll start filming again."
The MV shooting went exceptionally smoothly. The brothers only practiced twice before the staff informed them that filming could begin.
"When filming starts, you can prepare your solo part. During the actual filming in the afternoon, if you make mistakes in your solo part, you won't have to make up for it."
"good!"
Except for Yi Jingchen, all the trainees who came to participate in the audition knew the importance of the solo part, and they all practiced the solo part with high morale.
Yi Jingchen only recently found out about the 'solo part'. Yesterday, Gu Sijun dragged him to stay up late to work on his own, so he had no time to think about it.
He looked to the left and then to the right and found that Senior Mushroom and Rabbit had no intention of practicing either.
"Aren't you two ready?" Yi Jingchen asked.
Tian Xitu glanced at him and said softly, "This morning, my fans called me and specified the solo part they wanted to see."
"What?"
"..." Tian Xitu's face turned strangely red for a few seconds. He made his right hand into a small branch, raised it above his head and gently bent it twice.
[Bunny is cute.jpg]
Yi Jingchen covered his mouth and was touched by the cuteness of the cool guy with a cold face!
After Tian Xitu finished the action, he turned around in shame, wanting to find a crack in the ground to crawl into.
[Help! Bunny ears don't suit me at all!]
"Senior Mushroom, what about you?" Yi Jingchen turned to Du Xingwei.
Du Xingwei frowned and complained aggrievedly, "The 1080-degree spiral windmill I had prepared was rejected by the staff sister. She said that if I performed that, everyone on the stage would fly away, so I changed to a simpler one."
Yi Jingchen asked curiously, "What?"
"360-degree spiral rotation, no big windmill." As he said that, Du Xingwei turned horizontally on the spot, and the colorful hair ends raised a gorgeous arc, spreading spores in all directions.
After Du Xingwei finished spinning, he said angrily, "This move is simple, there's nothing much to practice."
Yi Jingchen: ...
[This 'simple' flat spin took me at least five hours to practice, not to mention the windmill.]
I am such a loser after all~
"By the way, I haven't asked you yet, what are you going to perform in the solo part?"
"Me? I haven't thought about it yet." Yi Jingchen sighed.
The solo part requires the trainees to demonstrate their personal skills. If they really don't have any, they can just make a heart shape or wink and get away with it.
But Yi Jingchen happened to stand in the middle, the most conspicuous position.
You must show personal skills worthy of this position.
Looking at the whole scene, other trainees showed off their skills, such as bending their waists, splitting their legs, and bending their legs, but he couldn't do any of those moves.
[Help! ]
Yi Jingchen cried out silently in despair.
[I am nothing.]
Seeing that he was worried, Tian Xitu leaned over again and said silently, "I think you are a person who hides his true self."
"Me?" Yi Jingchen pointed at himself. "Are you sure?"
"Yeah!" Before Tian Xitu could speak, Du Xingwei nodded vigorously, "I also think, Yi Jingchen, you are a very capable person. Whether it's the first stage, the square, or the selection of the initial C, every performance is particularly eye-catching."
Yi Jingchen murmured, "Really?"
"Really? I wanted to be friends with you because you were so outstanding!" Du Xingwei's face was full of sincerity, and his smile was so wide that his teeth were showing.
"First stage..." Yi Jingchen fell into deep thought.
