Support VCR
After the cute cub of Yan Zhichen's family gracefully bowed out, a pastoral scene appeared on the projection screen, filled with vegetables covered in morning dew.
The younger brothers looked around for a while and then looked at Yi Jingchen with suspicion, thinking that he was somewhere they had interviewed before.
The next second, a middle-aged couple emerged from the vegetable garden.
They were busy working and their clothes were stained with mud.
Facing the camera, he did not feel embarrassed at all, but instead smiled happily with his big white teeth showing.
Seeing the two rows of white teeth and the honesty revealed in his words and actions, everyone seemed to realize whose family he was and turned their attention to Yi Jingchen's brother.
Yi Jingchen approached Shu Lang curiously and asked in a low voice, "Brother, are these our parents?"
Shu Lang smiled and admitted frankly, "Yes."
"Hi, son!"
"How are you doing in there?"
“Hahahahahaha!”
Everyone couldn't hold back their laughter.
[Inside, hahahaha!]
Yi Jingchen fell on Shu Lang with laughter.
[It's like he's committed a crime.]
Shu Lang's parents were completely unaware of the ambiguity in their words. They were just cheerful and continued to speak happily towards the camera.
It was as if he was afraid that the headset would not pick up the sound well, and the sound was too loud and deafening through the speakers.
"Everything is fine at home, don't worry! There's been plenty of rain this year, so we're expecting another bumper harvest!"
"Everyone in the village heard you were going to be a big star, and they're all rooting for you. They're hoping you'll advertise our vegetable farm on TV someday!"
The staff member filming the video whispered, "Uncle, aunt, this footage will also be broadcast on TV. You can use it to promote it."
"Really?" Shu Lang's father reacted and immediately turned around to carry out a large winter melon that was more than half a meter long from the shed. He promoted it passionately in front of the camera and turned the VCR for relatives and friends into an agricultural channel.
Seeing his father's actions, Shu Lang did not feel ashamed, but enthusiastically recommended it to his father, "The vegetables we grow there are not sprayed with pesticides. They are green and safe. Everyone should learn about it."
"Wow!" Yi Jingchen saw the ground full of fresh vegetables and could already imagine their juicy taste.
He seriously suspected that he was the young master's life and the peasant's body.
The eighty-step cooking process of a three-star Michelin chef does not taste as good to him as the freshly picked greens from the field.
A certain greedy little cat was drooling as he stared at the screen, but unexpectedly, his 'parents' on the other side of the camera suddenly cue him.
"By the way, son, I heard that you found a younger brother in there." Shu Lang's father put down the winter melon and put his whole face in front of the camera, as if he wanted to dig Yi Jingchen out of the camera.
Yi Jingchen leaned back, fearing that a big hand would grab him.
[Don't come over here!]
"The child calls you brother, so we can't treat him badly. Next time you come back, bring the child with you. We won't say anything else, but we'll give you plenty of food!"
Shu Lang nodded, "Okay."
Yi Jingchen leaned over, looking like a big cat, "Brother, I'm reliable~"
The barrage of comments once again brought up the brotherhood line joke, calling them brothers certified by their parents.
Then the camera turned and the "Super Idol" production team actually prepared two videos for Shu Lang.
The second video is shorter and mainly features trainees from Shulangyuan’s company.
The reason for filming them was mainly because Shu Lang mentioned the original company many times in the program, and the audience was also very interested in the development of the original company, as if they had become spiritual shareholders.
Secondly——
Those kids will come to participate in the S-series draft sooner or later.
The program crew thought sinisterly: What a good seedling, he will be my cash cow in the future!
The kids from the former company were very polite. They stood in a neat row in the large practice room, bowed to the camera, reported on their recent training, and told Shu Lang that they had received several notices.
Finally, the group of little brothers shouted in unison:
"I wish Brother Lang and Boss Yi a successful team formation and that the company grows bigger and stronger!"
"Okay~" Before Shu Lang could respond, Yi Jingchen excitedly shouted, "Make it bigger and stronger!"
Shu Lang turned around and looked at Yi Jingchen helplessly, "My home is yours, my company is yours, and I'm redundant, right?"
"How could that be?" Yi Jingchen said seriously, "You are my brother, so of course you are mine."
[Foolish minister, I've just shown you how to usurp the throne.]
Yi Jingchen: I'm not here to break up this family, I'm here to join it. [Chest and belly raised.jpg]
[In fact, besides this family, Chenchen has many other families outside. He is just an ordinary sea king.]
[Chenchen just wants to give all the couples a home. Is he wrong? ]
[I am guilty, I want to see Aquaman fail]
Who wouldn't want that? This scumbag cat deserves some retribution.
After Shulang finished playing the VCR, several more were played one after another. The trainees' parents, grandparents, relatives and friends appeared one after another, and the scene was particularly warm.
Yi Jingchen watched the ups and downs of other people's lives with a faint smile on his face, as if he also felt the warmth.
Some people noticed Yi Jingchen's expression and couldn't help but start to worry: Did anyone shoot a VCR for Yi Jingchen?
Yi Jingchen's family situation is special, and it is difficult for his parents to appear on camera.
Even if his parents appeared on camera, Yi Jingchen might not be happy.
Most of his previous friends were made as "cats" and were in another circle, so they could not be relatives or friends of his idol Yi Jingchen.
After much thought, Yi Jingchen really had no relatives or friends who filmed a VCR for him.
Yi Jingchen seemed to be completely unconcerned about this matter, and continued to look at the projection screen with full concentration, as if this would allow him to participate in the happiness of other families.
A strange couple appeared on the screen again. They were not holding any banners or support items, and no one could guess whose parents they were.
Yi Jingchen looked around, searching for his unclaimed parents.
Mu Gan beside him touched him and told Yi Jingchen lightly, "It's my parents."
His expression was calm, and he didn't show any fluctuation because of his parents' appearance on camera.
After a family tragedy in his childhood, Mu Gan's relationship with his parents gradually became distant.
He would send his performance fees home, and his parents would also care about his health.
But deeper parent-child communication never appeared again.
Mu Gan originally thought that his parents were filming the VCR simply at the invitation of the program crew to help him complete his work.
The result far exceeded his expectations.
The parents greeted their son through the screen and said many things that they couldn't say in person.
Mom spoke softly, "Agan, Mom and Dad have listened to your works and watched your shows. When you mentioned your past, I realized we seemed to have made a mistake."
"We thought that incident had cast a heavy shadow on you, so we avoided mentioning it. We didn't expect it would cause you such a burden."
Dad sighed and continued, "I'm sorry I never told you this formally in all these years. What happened back then wasn't entirely your fault. As parents, we have to take responsibility for leaving such a young child alone at home."
Mom gently stroked her belly and continued, "As for your younger sibling back then, your dad and I had a serious discussion and decided not to bring him into the world and suffer. Not only was our family financially unable to afford it, but his birth would inevitably take away some of your love. He also wouldn't have received the full love of our parents."
"I didn't expect you to mind this. I thought you were still young at the time, so I didn't discuss it with you. I'm really sorry."
Mu Gan didn't say anything, just stared at the screen quietly.
Yi Jingchen leaned beside him, but he didn't know what Mu Gan was thinking.
He seemed to be thinking about a lot but had no time to interpret it, but it also seemed like he really wasn't thinking about anything.
"Agan, Dad and Mom should have told you long ago that you have always been our pride."
"Go forward, your parents will always support you."
After the VCR finished playing, sporadic sobbing sounds were heard at the scene.
Mu Gan just said "ah" and looked away.
Yi Jingchen stared at Mu Gan eagerly, anticipating his reaction.
Mu Gan lowered his eyelashes and pushed away the stupid silver gradient that was almost sticking to his face, "You're blocking me."
Yi Jingchen asked provocatively, "That's it? Don't you have anything else to say?"
"No." Mu Gan shook his head, paused for a few seconds, and said softly, "It's all over."
Yi Jingchen thought about it and smiled at him.
"Well, it's all over."
[Who said Nai Gan is insensitive? He's obviously quite sensitive.]
The idiot Silver Gradient shook his head and thought:
If he were a little more sensitive, I wouldn't be able to hide the fact that I secretly drink his strawberry Wahaha every day!
Mu Gan suddenly looked at Yi Jingchen, narrowed his eyes, and gave him a death stare.
——No wonder the strawberries in the dormitory never survive more than three days!
It turns out you were the one who drank secretly!
You can guard against thieves day and night, but you can’t guard against thieves in your own home.
Mu Gan seriously considered whether he should buy a cat-proof safe for his dorm room.
Yi Jingchen played and joked with Mu Gan for a while, and suddenly felt something was wrong.
Although a VCR of friends and family was playing, the auditorium was surprisingly quiet.
He looked at the screen curiously and found two people hiding secretly in it. They only dared to appear in the corner of the camera, and their voices were as small as the hum of a mosquito.
"Staff sister, turn up the volume!"
"I can't hear it!" everyone complained.
The staff said helplessly, "It's already turned to the maximum."
Yi Jingchen held up his ears with both hands, trying to absorb the sound waves, and only then did he hear a very faint "Come on, Luchu!"
Well, it turns out that the whole family with social anxiety on the screen are actually Luchu’s family.
Luchu scratched his face and said shamefully, "Actually, I'm already the most extroverted person in our family."
"You? Extrovert?"
Yi Jingchen hesitated to speak.
[Help! I never thought the word 'extrovert' would appear on Luchu in my life.]
[How reasonable and ridiculous.]
The Luchu VCR ended and no one could hear anything.
As a result, when the next VCR was played, the deafening sound almost pierced everyone's eardrums.
The staff urgently adjusted the volume to save everyone's ears.
"You little bastard! I'm your dad!"
"You bastard! I'm your uncle!"
On the screen, a man with great energy was shouting something that sounded like cursing.
Tian Xitu explained expressionlessly, "They are my father and my uncle."
"Uh." Yi Jingchen suddenly felt deeply that "Super Idol" was full of hidden talents, and it was not uncommon to see both reasonable and outrageous situations.
The bastard's father and uncle were standing in an open square, with a group of middle-aged women in bodybuilding clothes happily dancing square dance behind them.
Tian Xitu's mother and grandmother were also among them. They were sweating profusely while dancing, and only then did they have time to pay attention to the brat and call on the group of aunts to cheer for him together.
Yi Jingchen held his face with his hands, his eyes full of longing.
"Bunny, can I go to your house and square dance?"
"Sure." Tian Xitu said seriously, "But my mother's dance troupe is professional. We have to clock in every day and participate in district-level competitions."
"Forget it!" Yi Jingchen waved his hands quickly.
[Square dancing is clearly an entertainment activity, so why is it rolled up?]
[Isn’t it enough that I clock in at the company?]
Shu Lang grabbed Yi Jingchen's ear and pulled him back, who was full of complaints.
"Didn't we agree to go to my house first? Why are you going to Bunny's house again?"
Yi Jingchen grumbled righteously, "I can't stay in your house forever."
"How many more homes do you want?"
Mu Gan glanced sideways and said, "Oh, the whole world is his home."
"The whole world is my home. What a good idea!" Yi Jingchen's eyes lit up.
Cats are so cute, what’s wrong with having more homes for them!
Amidst everyone's pointing and disgust, another alternative family for Yi Jingchen appeared on the projection screen.
Li Jibai's cousin waved a banner to cheer for her brother.
"Hello everyone, I'm Little JB's cousin. The program originally invited my second uncle and second aunt... Little JB's parents, but they felt embarrassed and didn't want to appear on the show."
Li Jibai had already guessed this situation, and he felt a little sad when he heard his cousin say that his parents were unwilling to shoot a VCR.
The pretty girl in the video spoke in a nonchalant tone, glanced sideways at a certain spot, as if she was deliberately saying it to someone.
"If you ask me, treat them the way they treat you."
"When my second uncle and aunt retire, I'll send them to a senior citizen university. If they don't get first place in their class, they won't be allowed to go home. I'll use PUA as much as I can."
"Don't show up when you encounter any big or small problems."
"The hospital wants to put a catheter in them, and you said you can't afford to lose face..."
He had only said half of his words when he heard two sounds of footsteps coming from someone nearby who was obviously unable to contain himself.
Then, a man whose face was 80% similar to what Li Jibai imagined appeared. His expression was extremely cold and hard, and he was about to speak.
"Uncle, I advise you to take it easy." My cousin, shrinking back to eat sunflower seeds, slowly reminded me, "The internet has memories. If you say or do the wrong thing, you'll still be criticized when you're old."
Li Jibai's father was choked up and couldn't speak, but his mother, who always put her husband first, said a few words of encouragement, which was considered to be a way to get through the cheering VCR.
Seeing Li Jibai's attitude, everyone turned around and thought about how to comfort their friend.
"It doesn't matter." Li Jibai said helplessly, "I didn't expect him to be on camera."
"That's not unexpected at all." Yi Jingchen said confidently, "Actually, uncle also wants to cheer you up, he's just being arrogant."
[If I really don’t want to be on camera, I won’t accept any requests to be filmed.]
If I could meet him in person, I'd tell him that the tsundere persona is long gone!
[Twisted fatherly love will not have good results!]
Li Jibai: ...?
Now he can only pray that his father is not paying attention to him and will not see this live broadcast.
Otherwise, knowing that Yi Jingchen described him as "arrogant and twisted", given Li's father's personality, he would definitely be furious.
As the night deepened, the cheering VCRs of the friends around me played one by one.
Rao Han's teammates made a strong appearance, shouting, "We were just joking before, we can't do without you in the new season, come back to training quickly after being eliminated."
"Yes, the coach has arranged intensive training for you, 28 hours a day."
When Rao Han heard the news, his face turned pale instantly.
He practices for 28 hours every day and never mentions overtime. Where does he get the extra four hours from?
Rao Han turned to the camera and asked desperately, "If I say I want to debut now, is it too late?"
The staff member pointed to the clock and said, "There are 90 minutes left before voting for this stage ends. What do you think?"
Rao Han covered his chest, feeling that he would not live long.
Help me!
Is there a paradise in the world where there is no singing or dancing and no internet access?
Amidst everyone's laughter, Li Xingzhou's family also made a strong appearance. Each of them had the aura of a big brother, and those who didn't know them would think they had accidentally entered some black organization.
Li Xingzhou's grandfather held a cigarette in his mouth and told Li Xingzhou to work hard.
Everyone inexplicably had the illusion that Li Xingzhou participated in "Super Idol" in order to carry out the Dark Shark mission.
As for the only person who deserves to be Dark Shark in "Super Idol"——
Everyone looked, either openly or covertly, at a small loser who had offended countless big guys.
Yi Jingchen shuddered and moved to the place farthest away from Li Xingzhou.
Li Xingzhou looked at his lack of ambition and asked with a sneer, "Didn't you ask me to protect you?"
Yi Jingchen shook his head and said fearfully, "I understand the truth. No sheep can leave Xinjiang, and no rabbit can leave Sichuan."
Bunny Bunny asked confusedly, "Why?"
"It will be eaten!" Yi Jingchen said, and swallowed his saliva. "Rabbit, it's delicious~"
"Hey!" Tian Xitu frowned.
I treat you as a friend, but you think I smell good.
Seeing how cowardly he was, Li Xingzhou didn't dare to scare him and repeatedly assured him that his family was running a legitimate business.
Yi Jingchen: "What's the best thing about your family?"
Li Xingzhou replied, "Selling fish."
"The bigger the wind and waves, the more expensive the fish. How can there be a legitimate business selling fish?" Yi Jingchen trembled and hid further away.
Just as they were chasing each other in a mess, the projection screen started playing VCR again.
Everyone was very curious.
35 cheering VCRs have been played, and everyone's cheering videos should have been played.
There were a total of 36 trainees in the auditorium, but everyone had reached a consensus that a certain cat had no video.
Therefore, after the 35th segment was played, everyone tacitly created an atmosphere of ending, and no one asked tactlessly, "Next one" or "Are there any more?"
Who would have thought that the program team would actually broadcast 36 videos.
Is it collective support?
It was a trainee who recorded the VCR twice.
Everyone was extremely confused and looked at the projection screen.
Yi Jingchen also stopped fighting and looked over.
He had long accepted that he would not have a VCR for his friends and family, so he did not look forward to it and did not feel sad.
Unexpectedly, the scene he was most familiar with suddenly appeared on the screen.
In the office of the News Department, several senior colleagues from the same department rearranged Yi Jingchen's workstation.
His cactus sat in the middle of his workstation, and a string of small colored lights hung from it. A specially crafted poster cheering him on appeared on the screen, complete with the station's logo.
The VCR recording started and the camera scanned around.
In addition to all the seniors in this department appearing on camera, several reporters from other departments who had a good relationship with Yi Jingchen also came over to join in the fun.
Everyone shouted at the same time:
"Reporter Xiaoyi, good luck in the finals!"
After shouting, everyone applauded themselves for their tacit understanding.
Yi Jingchen didn't expect that his seniors were willing to cheer him on, and he belatedly said thank you.
Maybe others don’t understand and think it’s just an ordinary cheering video.
But Yi Jingchen knew that the station had a rule that social reporters were not allowed to get involved in matters related to the entertainment industry, as this could easily cause adverse social impacts.
In particular, many seniors are formal employees with a fixed position, and they will definitely be punished if they violate the rules.
To record such a video, one must go through various levels of reporting and obtain approval from the Central Radio and Television Station.
In order to get permission from the main station, the seniors waited until the day before the pajama party before finally recording the video and sending it to the "Super Idol" program team.
"Xiao Yi, look, your cactus is blooming."
The colleague closest to Yi Jingchen's workstation held up a cactus and excitedly showed it to the camera, "I watered it on time."
"And your workstation. We took turns cleaning it for you. It's pretty clean. There are two new interns in the department, and the boss said they can't take your seat."
"We greet each other every day at the station. It used to be 'Is there any news?', but now it's 'Have you voted?' Everyone pays attention to you."
"You better be brave. From now on, you'll be our informant in the entertainment industry. If there's any news that's worthy of the social pages, we'll be able to report it before those entertainment reporters."
"Come on, I'll wait for you to come back!"
[Wow, the atmosphere is so warm, this is my dream workplace]
[+1, is it too late to apply to the journalism department now? I also want to be Yi Jingchen's colleague.]
[Wake up, Yi Jingchen works overtime every day but still doesn't have full attendance]
[The above is really bad. If you keep mentioning the lack of perfect attendance, I will be devastated.]
[Thank you to the seniors in the News Department for recording a VCR for Chenchen. I finally feel relieved.]
[Yes, yes, I was worried that stupid Xiaochen didn't have a VCR.]
[Wow, thank you so much. Although Chenchen was very well behaved and didn't play the victim, when he saw the senior's video, his eyes lit up for a moment and it really touched me.]
Yi Jingchen didn't say it, but he really wanted it. This video is very important to him!
Yi Jingchen watched the video carefully and was obviously very happy. He made heart shapes towards the screen and expressed his admiration for his senior while also advertising the news department.
Before the video ended, a senior suddenly turned the camera over and made a half-serious threat.
"If you don't get first place, don't come back. Our department only recruits the best!"
"hiss--"
Yi Jingchen gasped, "Is this one of the recruitment criteria for our department?"
It's over!
If you don’t get the C position, not only will you not be able to graduate, you will also lose your job.
Yi Jingchen had a gloomy face, and he suddenly appeared to gloat over other people's misfortune. Yi Jingchen scolded him several times as if to vent his anger, and then he retreated in shame.
After the support video from relatives and friends was officially played, the brothers lay together in their pajamas, chatting about tomorrow and what would happen after the finals. They agreed to keep in touch even after the show was over.
It’s like the last few days before graduation during my student days.
Before rushing to their own future, they are trying their best to retain the youth of this period.
Ding Dong—
A sudden time signal sounded in the auditorium.
The electronic sound reached the ears of each brother.
"Domestic time, 0:00 sharp."
"Voting for the third stage pick list of 'Super Idol' has officially closed."
The sound of chatting suddenly quieted down.
Everyone knows that the end of the third stage means that half of the people around you today will be gone tomorrow.
The remaining half will enter the final night and face an even more brutal war.
There is only a fine line between forming a group and being eliminated.
It is bound to be a world of difference.
In the silence, someone whispered, "When will the recording sequence be?"
The staff replied, "Tomorrow."
"Tomorrow, there's only one night left."
"Yes," the staff member continued, "the pajama party is over, everyone can go back to their dormitories and rest."
"Huh?" Yi Jingchen, who didn't know the rules of the pajama party, asked confusedly, "Aren't we sleeping here? I brought my pillows."
Yi Jingchen had not watched the previous S-series talent shows, and did not understand that the pajama party was just a pretense. After the recording, everyone went back to the dormitory.
Even if the production team specially laid out soft mattresses, most of the trainees who are about to become stars are unwilling to condescend to squeeze into the big bunk bed.
This year was a bit unexpected.
I don’t know if it’s because it’s a live broadcast and can’t be edited later.
Or maybe it was because, after the chat just now, everyone really wanted to sleep together and enjoy the last few hours.
The staff replied awkwardly, "You can sleep here too." The younger brothers who were about to get up lay back down, dug a nest and prepared to sleep.
However, Yi Jingchen, who had initially suggested sleeping together, suddenly ran out in a yell.
"What's wrong with him?"
"I don't know, maybe I have to pee urgently."
About ten minutes later, Yi Jingchen ran back to the auditorium again.
It was drizzling outside, making my hair a little wet and my stomach bulge.
"Well."
Everyone stared at his stomach, wondering what kind of play this was.
"Meow~" The bulge made a sound, and a cat's head popped out from the lump as it squirmed.
"The original cat couldn't sleep in the dormitory, so I brought it here." Yi Jingchen dug a cat bed for the original cat next to him, muttering with reason, "It's an extra-staff cat member of "Super Idol"."
"Yes, yes, this year's top star."
"Open a voting channel for the main body, and the number of debut positions will immediately drop from 9 to 8."
"It's too small, and its main body is aiming for the center position. From now on, it will stand in the front, meow meow meow, and the debut group will dance behind it."
"That's great, please exchange cat lives with me."
"Meow!" The main body shook its head vigorously.
"Heh, I was rejected by a cat."
"What a lost cat!"
“Hahahahahaha!”
The younger brothers, who were sleeping in a large bunk bed for the first time, chattered until late at night before finally becoming quiet.
The next morning, the production team knew that the trainees had been up late last night, so they considerately delayed the recording time and let them sleep until nine o'clock.
Yi Jingchen got up lazily, holding a pillow in his left hand and his body in his right hand, walked out of the training building in a daze, and went back to the dormitory to change clothes.
As I walked through the streets on my way to work, I couldn’t stop screaming from the various fans who had been waiting there early.
They originally thought that this year's pajama party would be like the previous years, where they would go straight back to the dormitory after recording.
But they actually slept in the training building. The fangirl who got up early in the morning and waited there got the first wave of benefits: she took a top-secret photo of her brother in his pajamas.
"Bunny, your pajamas are so cute!"
"Xingxing, the mushroom hair exploded!"
"Jiujiu wife, please sleep with me!"
"My Lang, if you wear floral pajamas again next time, I will really call the police!"
Before Yi Jingchen walked over, he heard screams one after another, and the shutter clicked non-stop.
However, when Yi Jingchen passed by the fans, everyone put away their smiles, put on a cold expression, and pretended to be angry about their ranking in this round.
Unfortunately, the same trick cannot be used twice.
Yi Jingchen saw through them at a glance and said proudly, "I've seen through you!"
The fans looked at each other, trying to judge whether this statement was true or not.
"You're all pretending. I don't believe it." Yi Jingchen picked up his original body and waved at them with his cat paws. "Thank you for your hard work during this period."
"I'm going to record the order!"
Seeing that he was about to leave, Chen's sister finally couldn't bear it anymore and shouted at him, Yi Jingchen, "Yi Jingchen, debut in the center position!"
Yi Jingchen turned around and said with a smile, "Thank you for your blessing."
“Not a blessing!”
"We will put you in the center position!"
"Stupid Xiaochen, just sit tight!"
"I……"
Yi Jingchen opened his mouth.
"Shut up!"
Everyone was very prescient in shouting, "Listen."
"Your mouth can't say what I want to hear."
The grumpy cat chef simply stopped hiding and shouted angrily, "My love, keep it!"
"Okay!" Yi Jingchen asked the person next to him to help him hold the pillow, grabbed the two paws of the original body, and made it make a heart shape on the top of its head.
"I love you too~"
"Meow~"
After saying that, Yi Jingchen took back the pillow, said thank you and returned to the dormitory building.
Leaving behind were Chen's sister and the cat chef, standing there twisting in place, with the corners of their mouths curled up and unable to be forced down.
"Chenchen said he loves me~"
"You obviously love me!"
"That's enough. What are you arguing about? Next time, let him say it a few more times. You have time to vote for the welfare list."
"Oh oh!" The ministers suddenly realized and quickly took out their mobile phones to start voting for the 24-hour limited-time welfare list before the main list was opened.
The previous three welfare lists were all additional tracks, related to roadshow spots, early spring activities, and autograph sessions respectively.
Due to the tight schedule, the welfare list for the finals stage will be directly linked to the finals night.
Although the form of rewards has not yet been announced, according to the staff, the last welfare list is definitely worth the money.
Moreover, at this stage, no one dares to be negligent.
The welfare list is related to the proportion of die-hard fans, and all the companies that enter the final round are trying their best to reach a high position.
Yi Jingchen returned to the dormitory and originally planned to change into formal uniform, but he heard from the staff that the ranking announcement today would be different, so he could just wear his usual uniform.
Yi Jingchen changed into his uniform, went downstairs and took a bus, and was taken by the program crew to a beautiful lake with clear water and green mountains.
Three professional instructors, plus Xaviera, the flight instructor for this stage, were waiting there early, dressed in casual spring outing outfits.
The trainees got off the bus one after another. The mentors did not let them line up and announce their rankings directly, but pointed to the tents and barbecue grills at the back.
"We're inviting everyone to a picnic today. Who's going to set up the tent?"
“Me, me, me!”
"I'll set up the grill."
"And there are fishing rods? Can we go fishing at the lake?"
"Sure," Wei Mi replied, "The first trainee to catch a fish will be the first to know their ranking."
As soon as the words fell, the originally relaxed atmosphere suddenly became tense.
After all this time, it was finally released in order.
The trainee who had just fought for the fishing rod hurriedly stuffed the rod into someone else's hands, trying to make him the first unlucky one.
"I'm just kidding." Gu Sijun said, "Relax. Even if you catch a fish, your ranking will not be announced."
The older boys finally breathed a sigh of relief, picked up their fishing rods and rushed to the lake to show off their skills.
Yi Jingchen just got into the car and saw vast expanses of flower fields along the way. His first reaction was, "This place is suitable for filming."
As soon as he got off the car, he pulled the photographer and took a lot of beautiful scenery photos in succession to be used as future materials.
After taking the photos, Yi Jingchen returned to the area where the mentors and trainees gathered, only to find that there were nothing but difficulties, and there was no one to solve the problems.
The tents prepared by the program team are not portable simple tents, and require a high level of professionalism.
A few young geniuses didn't even read the instructions, but confidently went on stage and set up the tent in a crooked manner, as if it were a relic left by aliens. They handed it over to the "Science Approaches" program crew to shoot at least ten episodes.
Looking at the fishing area, many empty rods were cast and the only catch was a foam board.
Some people had no patience and changed places after fishing for only five minutes. I guess the fish in the lake would shake their heads.
The mentors and trainees set up the barbecue grill together. The grill was set up, but the charcoal fire could not be lit.
A very clever suggestion was to go to a nearby cave where it would be easier to light a fire without wind.
Several people came to the cave, lit the charcoal fire smoothly, and said happily, "Let's grill here."
"Yes, it's nice here! It's sheltered from the wind and dust-free."
"The picnic was so enjoyable, I felt all giddy."
Yi Jingchen poked his head in and asked quietly, "Are you about to see that you are too breasty?"
"Yeah, how did you know?"
"You know there's a way to die called charcoal burning? Like this."
As soon as the words fell, several people's faces turned pale.
No wonder I felt so dizzy, it turned out to be carbon monoxide poisoning!
"It's a wonder you've managed to grow this big. Burning charcoal in a cramped, stuffy place like this is a waste of your life."
Yi Jingchen quickly called over staff, blew air into the cave, and moved the barbecue grill out.
Fortunately, the charcoal had just been burning for a short time, and the idiots were just a little dizzy. They were fine after breathing a few breaths of fresh air.
The trainee who was in charge of skewering vegetables and meat nearby saw that the barbecue grill was set up and put everything on it without saying anything.
Shu Lang couldn't bear to watch it any longer, so he put down his fishing rod and came over to help.
Yi Jingchen was originally planning to be in charge of the barbecue, but when he saw Shu Lang coming, he happily rushed to his previous position and occupied the fishing rod.
He has come into contact with many anglers and learned many skills from them, such as how to make bait and float.
Unfortunately, Yi Jingchen can only learn the basics of anything he learns and only knows the simplest fishing methods.
Fortunately, the fish in the lake were relatively stupid, and one of them actually bit Yi Jingchen's hook.
He put the fish he caught into a basin and excitedly showed it to everyone.
Gu Sijun glanced at the fish in the basin, nodded, and said with relief, "Congratulations, you can be the first to know the ranking!"

"Me? Do I have to choose?"
Yi Jingchen widened his eyes.
[To make this happen?]
Can I choose death?
[Exciting! Stupid silver gradient, make a decision quickly, with so many CPs, which one do you choose? (Manual dog head)
[According to incomplete statistics, there are at least ten Chenchen couples at the scene]
[To be conservative, the first sea king of "Super Idol", not only the trainees, but also several mentors have a CP with him]
[Remember the flag Chenchen set earlier? CP101 Final Battle]
Yi Jingchen: Everyone else is here for the talent show, but I'm different. The only ones who will make it into the group are me and my nine CPs (including myself).
[The production team is really cruel. They directly banned the main character Shuixian. Now Chenchen has to choose one among his brother, guardian, roommate, master, etc.]
[Stupid Xiaochen, you're sweating profusely, right?]
Yi Jingchen also realized the seriousness of the problem, and if he was not careful, it would turn out to be a disaster for Aquaman.
After looking around for a while, he finally mustered up the courage to say, "I choose..."
