Chapter 005 Chapter 5
The next morning, Zhou Xiao leisurely ate the breakfast served by the hotel. Living so close to the Star Path 101 offline station, she didn't have to get up early and could enjoy her breakfast at her leisure. She scrolled through her phone and used the secondary account she had previously registered to check for more news about the Star Path 101 program.
It is worth mentioning that the mentors invited to this program are all powerful mentors, and the proposed initiator is also a very remarkable and versatile idol worldwide.
Zhou Xiao was a little surprised that the program team would invite Zhou Quanli. As for this fellow idol, she can say that she has grown up listening to her songs since she was a child. Simply put, she can be regarded as the founder of domestic entertainment idols.
Zhou Xiao took a look and was quite interested. Then he looked at the other mentors that the program team planned to invite.
Vocal Instructor:
Jiang Zhijuan, whose songs are widely sung, has also written many high-quality songs for many singers and TV dramas.
Xiao Yi, a pop singer, has a variety of styles. The characteristics of his songs are gripping and he has produced many classic movie opening songs.
Dance Instructor:
Tao Zui, a sharp-tongued dancer with a handsome and capable style, has choreographed many dances for idol groups at home and abroad.
Chu Miaoyin, a master of modern dance, has won many gold awards at home and abroad and is very powerful.
Rap instructor:
Xu Yu has won many rap competitions at home and abroad and has a sharp and distinctive style.
Ni Li, the number one female rapper in China, has a unique voice and melody, and her singing voice is full of attacking power. She has won many world-class music awards.
She couldn't help but be shocked when she saw the list. The weight of the list was too much. It seemed that the program "Star Path 101" was too heavy.
As this list is revealed, Zhou Xiao feels that everyone's expectations for this program will also rise.
Of course, she was not the only one who thought so. The blog post exposing the list was filled with expressions of shock and ellipsis from netizens, as if they had not expected the program crew to make such a big deal right away.
From disbelief to anticipation, many people immediately tagged the Star Path official and asked them to film while broadcasting.
The initiators and mentors are well-known bigwigs in various fields of the circle. Although they do not have as many passionate fans who can produce data as young idol artists, their qualifications and strengths are recognized by the public.
After reading the revelations, Zhou Xiao strolled towards the gate of Xingtu 101 and noticed something was amiss. Why was there no one there today? What had happened?
When she arrived at the door, she found that the iron gate that was originally blocked had been removed, and a staff member wearing a T-shirt with the Star Path program logo was leaning against the pillar.
The man heard footsteps, stood up, looked at Zhou and said with a smile: "Are you here to see the trainees?"
Zhou Xiao nodded when he heard the question. The staff member pointed to the trainee dormitory building and said to Zhou Xiao: "The group of girls are waiting downstairs over there. You should go over there too."
She pinched the metal clip of her mask, feeling somewhat speechless at the production team's decision. "Isn't this just about opening up the square for publicity? But how can the trainees' personal safety be guaranteed?"
Zhou Xiao sent a WeChat message to Qi Sisi as he walked, telling her that the iron gate had been removed and to go directly to the trainee dormitory building. When he was almost downstairs, Zhou Xiao was shocked by the scene in front of him.
Standing at the entrance to the dormitory building were a group of bodyguards wearing uniforms with the show's logo... Zhou Xiao had never seen the trainees' dormitories before, but she saw the iron gate at the entrance, which was exactly the same as the one she had seen a few days ago...
The iron gate is recycled, the production team is quite frugal...
"Xiaoxiao, come here." Zhou Xiao heard the voice calling her and walked silently towards that direction. The person calling her was one of the people who had opened a super chat with Zhou Xiao and Qi Sisi that day.
The three of them laughed at Zhou Xiao's expression. Dong Xiaoyu, the tallest of them with bangs, patted Zhou Xiao's shoulder and said, "When the three of us first saw this scene, we had the same expression as you."
Li Mo, the shorter girl among the three, pulled out her phone and smiled at Zhou, "We were so excited chatting last time that I forgot to add you and Sisi as friends. I created a group, come join us."
Zhou Xiao nodded and scanned the code, then pulled Qi Sisi in. Before she could speak, she was poked by Zhu Jian, who was wearing black-rimmed glasses. She turned her head and saw Qi Sisi's dazed expression after arriving downstairs. The four of them couldn't help but burst out laughing facing each other.
After Qi Sisi calmed down, Zhou Xiao discussed the issue of the support color with everyone. After a round of discussion, no one could decide on a few alternative colors. Zhou Xiao looked at everyone's expressions and said with a smile: "If you are so confused, let Ji Shao figure it out on his own."
Perhaps because there was an opportunity for close contact, the people gathered at the bottom of the dormitory building did not shout loudly as they did at the door, but only heard small rustling sounds.
The iron gate was opened. Zhou Xiao, who was standing outside, could only see a few furry heads. There were about three or four trainees coming out, and two short but strong bodyguards immediately appeared among the group of bodyguards standing downstairs. The trainees, who were surrounded in the middle, were urged forward by the two bodyguards on the left and right.
I have to say that this looks quite interesting. It is also the first time that Zhou Xiao has encountered such a large group of bodyguards.
When Zhou Xiao watched the first group of bodyguards and trainees walking towards them, a few girls with curious eyes pushed and shoved as if they were trying to do something. After a while, one of the girls followed the first group of trainees.
When passing by Zhou Xiao, Zhou Xiao could vaguely hear the girl ask the bodyguard: "Brother Bodyguard, is it going to be like this from now on?"
…
"Yan Shu is here," Qi Sisi nudged Zhou Xiao and whispered in her ear, "Yan Shu is so handsome and cute. Of course, he's a little bit behind Ji Shao, but his popularity offline is still quite high."
Zhou Xiao looked at the three people who jumped up to greet them, and said to Qi Sisi, "Is it him?" Although he asked the question, Zhou Xiao was already certain that this person was Yan Shu that Qi Sisi mentioned.
Among those trainees, a passerby could see that boy at first sight. He was really handsome and had a bright smile. He waved to everyone energetically while walking around.
After receiving a positive response from Qi Sisi, Zhou Xiao looked at at least a dozen or so girls following Yan Shu and his group. The girls were chirping happily like birds, and many of them were calling Yan Shu "baby, baby".
Not long after, the iron gate opened again. Zhou Xiao and his group were standing in a relatively high place and soon saw the person among the crowd coming out.
Zhou Xiao raised the camera and shook it to signal to everyone that she wanted to stand here to take pictures. Qi Sisi and the others surrounded Ji Shao and others before her.
After snapping a few pictures, Zhou Xiao walked towards them. She noticed that more and more people were getting to know Ji Shao offline this time. When Zhou Xiao arrived next to Qi Sisi and the others, she saw three fans holding cameras standing a little further ahead, taking pictures of Ji Shao backwards.
Zhou Xiao looked at how professional they were and couldn't help but feel moved.
She thought for a moment, then walked further ahead, camera in hand. At the corner ahead, the sunken ground held a stone pillar, and beneath it lay a dug pond. Since Huashang Times Square hadn't been put into use yet, the floor inside was still dry concrete.
The stone pillar was as high as a calf, and Zhou Xiao was standing on it. She raised her camera and pointed it at Ji Shao who was walking towards her.
While she was concentrating on taking pictures of him, Ji Shao, who was walking towards her surrounded by bodyguards, suddenly stopped in front of her and stretched out his hand to her.
"Ahhhh" His ears were suddenly devastated by the screams. Zhou Xiao looked at the hand stretched out in front of him and pressed the shutter button very calmly and quickly.
"My hands feel really good today," Zhou Xiao thought absentmindedly.
In fact, only two or three seconds passed before Zhou Xiao put down the camera and said to Ji Shao in front of him, "Thank you, but it's not necessary." After that, he jumped down and walked to the side of Qi Sisi, who was a little dazed.
Knowing Zhou Xiao didn't need help, Ji Shao naturally withdrew his hand and said to Zhou Xiao and the girls surrounding him holding their phones and cameras, "Walk carefully and don't walk backwards." After saying that, he looked at Zhou Xiao again with a sincere look in his eyes, "Don't stand there either. Safety first."
The atmosphere along the way was very good, perhaps because of the close contact, or perhaps because everyone received Ji Shao's care and discovered his gentleness.
The conversation turned more towards personal preferences. After seeing someone ask Ji Shao what kind of fruit he liked, Zhou Xiao asked the question he had wanted to ask Ji Shao at first, "Ji Shao, do you have a favorite color?"
When Ji Shao heard Zhou Xiao's question, he turned his head, looked into her eyes, and said, "I didn't really like any color before."
As he said this, Ji Shao happened to walk to the spot where Zhou Xiao had taken the photo. He stopped, pointed at the chinaberry flowers above his head and said with a smile, "I like the color of this flower now. Thank you."
Zhou Xiao's hands were faster than his brain. Facing the scene in front of him, his fingers bent involuntarily and pressed the shutter.
"Come on!"
After sending Ji Shao downstairs to the training room, Qi Sisi hugged Zhou Xiao and said, "Xiaoxiao, you can do it!"
Dong Xiaoyu pounded his palm, "No wonder! Last night after get off work, I saw someone showing Ji Shao their phone. I guess they were showing Ji Shao your amazing picture!"
Zhou Xiao also slowly calmed down. At that moment, she also understood why so many fans who were motivated by love would voluntarily and spontaneously support their idols. It was not only because they were dazzled by the beauty offline, but more because of the exquisite details.
She said to the group, "Then let's decide on the support color: lavender!"
After returning to the hotel, Zhou Xiao opened the photos he had taken today and couldn't help but feel in a good mood. The angles of some of the photos were so good that they didn't need any extra modification. Ji Shao himself was a prominent character in the photos.
After Zhou Xiao selected the picture, she blurred the face of the person in the photo and then posted it directly on Weibo.
——A certain blog——
@FlippedPounding Heart·Ji Shao: #Ji Shao Super Talk# The light rain and breeze all belong to you. [Picture][Picture[Picture]
[Sister! You are my God! ]
[Ahhhhhhhh if I don’t go crazy, who will?]
Oh my god
【I won't allow anyone to not see this set of photos! 】
【Husband, husband, husband, husband】
[I was shocked by her beauty...]
[This is a viral photo! ! ! ]
【……】
Less than five minutes after Zhou Xiao posted this, the system voice sounded—
[System Task: Raise Ji Shao's fame value to over 10,000 (1/1), and receive a reward of five peripheral products (products produced by the system: the average price of each peripheral product is 1 yuan, regardless of category, and there is no limit on the number of productions. Peripheral support items will be provided within 48 hours)]
Zhou Xiao has become accustomed to this. She is very sure that this system is a genuine fan club system.
Every reward was designed to help Zhou Xiao complete his mission better, even the peripheral production could be seamlessly integrated. But this one was delivered within 48 hours? Zhou Xiao could already imagine the system's factory on some other plane...
However, Zhou Xiao felt she should consider public feedback when choosing peripherals. She browsed various software programs, including some unused apps, and decided on five peripherals: a hand banner, a keychain, a handheld electric fan, a coin purse, and a canvas bag.
She plans to use a cartoon version of Ji Shao for all peripheral products except for banners. According to a lot of feedback she saw online, people are embarrassed to use peripheral products printed with real people in their daily lives.
Since we're going to do it, let's make something that everyone can use in their daily lives. Zhou Xiao turned on the system computer, imported the selected photo of Ji Shao, and chose to cartoonize it.
The price of exchanging this template is not low. It is exchanged with Ji Shao's fame value, and the exchange rate is 1:100. It costs 6 points to exchange one. After looking at Ji Shao's current fame value, Zhou Xiao exchanged 4.
After redeeming the painting, Zhou Xiao raised an eyebrow at the system interface prompt. The generated time would take 24 hours to be released. (Note: The two-dimensional painting used in this article was created by an artist in another dimension of the system, similar to the factory mentioned above, and the time ratio for each dimension is different.)
Although the support color was already decided, it took Zhou Xiao almost two days to finalize the version. During this time, she also received several cartoon versions of Ji Shao. The details produced by the system were a perfect replica of Ji Shao himself. Zhou Xiao couldn't help but smile when looking at the cartoon version of Ji Shao. It really was worth spending so much fame points.
Finally, she submitted the finished products to the system. She planned to make 500 copies each of the key chains, handheld electric fans, coin purses, and canvas bags, and 2,000 banners.
The banner was eventually produced in four versions, 500 copies each:
The focus of version A is the blooming neem flowers hanging by the boy's ears. Half of the boy's face is covered by the neem flowers, which is extremely dreamy.
Version B shows a young man standing under a chinaberry tree, pointing at the chinaberry flowers with his hand pointing at them. The spring scenery is bright and beautiful.
Version C and D are two pictures that she has not made public yet. One is a side profile picture of Ji Shao being protected by bodyguards, taken by Zhou Xiao from the front and side. She adjusted the filter, and the finished product has a domineering and abstinent look.
The other photo was taken when Zhou Xiao pressed the shutter button when Ji Shao extended his hand to her. The refreshing youthful feeling was definitely from a girlfriend's perspective. Zhou Xiao believed that this photo would be very attractive to his girlfriend fans.
She planned to keep the two banners and distribute them offline after sending out the photos.

The first picture shows the coolness of her eyes closed, the second picture shows the stunning look of her eyes opening instantly, and the third picture shows her smiling and pointing at the flowers with such brilliance...

The first picture has a strong sense of fragmentation, but I still love the one pointing at the flower the most. It’s amazing. Now when I close my eyes, I see that picture. It’s so beautiful!

Going back to the above, I like the second picture the most. The eyes are so clear, especially the moment when the eyes are opened. I can only say that this is the pinnacle of fangirl aesthetics.
