Chapter 16
The explosive news that "Ai Qingyuan is not the primary C" spread throughout the entire fan circle that night.
The IP of "Super Rookie" has reached its third season. It has fans of the program as well as fans of the contestants themselves. Although it has not yet aired, it has been on the hot search list for several rounds. Usually, major entertainment bases are even more lively.
This incident shocked all the new and old fans.
As mentioned in the special post, the result of the endless stream of talent shows is a shortage of trainee resources, and in this session, in terms of qualifications, background and looks, under the premise that everyone only had original fans before the show started, no one could think of anyone who could compete with Ai Qingyuan.
"Hype? If you can't find a new angle to market it, just make some drama out of it. Maybe it's fake."
"Fake +1, the real bloggers in the past didn't say anything"
"You guys have so much confidence in AQY, have you completely forgotten about him publicly showing his disdain on the last show?"
"Black powder roll"
"Connect to Ziweixing, connect to Ziweixing, connect to Ziweixing"
"I don't think it's fake, that account belongs to a staff member, and it was deleted in seconds... probably because they were too shocked."
The last one is the reason for the public opinion at this moment.
The account that accidentally leaked the information has long been confirmed to be the private account of an internal staff member, and it also posts some daily life of the players. Her words are very credible.
While Ai Qingyuan's fans and haters were fighting each other, fans of other groups were also confused.
If it’s not Ai Qingyuan, then who could it be?
Could it be the little idol they picked?
Where there is speculation, there will be slander. So the war gradually expanded.
In the midst of chaos, there is only one place of peace and stability, that is——
Xie Xichao's fan group.
-
Yes, Xie Xichao has a fan base.
The group of 500 people currently has a total of 312 fans. Because there are no big fans, the girl who created the group temporarily took on the arduous task of management.
They are also eating melons, but they are really eating melons for the sake of pure melon eating.
"It's such a fierce quarrel, it feels like a war is going on"
"It's okay, it has nothing to do with us. Ai Qingyuan's fans will only fight over their center position. What does this have to do with our beautiful little white flower Chao Chao baby?"
"Ahhh, I'm dying of laughter. Indeed, by the way, the photos Yao Xin posted today are really pretty."
"I don't ask for anything else, I just hope my baby is healthy. Before I got into this, I was still following others in calling for medical miracles. After getting into this, I feel so heartbroken. It's okay if she's useless and muddleheaded, as long as she's beautiful and can breathe [tears]"
"+1, I'm also a pure life fan"
In the peaceful and tranquil atmosphere, the topic of quarreling was brushed aside and replaced by flattery, expectations and other meaningless chat topics.
At 11 o'clock in the evening, it was time to get some sleep, so everyone in the group said good night to each other.
Five minutes later, the group messages stopped updating tacitly.
At the same time, Xie Xichao finally woke up from his dream. Feeling a little hot, he sat up and tested the temperature of his forehead before he breathed a sigh of relief.
There was a glass of water on the table, which was still stable.
He took a sip, and the door outside opened. Guan Heng walked in with a lunch box in his hand.
He greeted Jie Xichao: "Are you awake?"
Jie Xichao said "hmm".
Guan Heng spread the lunch boxes on the table one by one. Inside were hot seaweed egg drop soup, steamed pork ribs with rice flour, scrambled eggs and green vegetables.
Xie Xichao took a look and commented: "Sure enough, the cafeteria will prepare delicious food when I don't go there."
Guan Heng was amused by him.
He said, "Eat quickly, or it will get cold."
Xie Xichao took the chopsticks and thanked Guan Heng first.
*
When the recording was almost over, Xie Xichao developed a low fever because of his poor physical condition and low immunity. The recording hadn't finished yet, so he held on for a while.
Only Guan Heng noticed it.
After it was over, he came over and helped him back to the dormitory and got him some food.
"You're so polite." Guan Heng said, "We're all roommates."
Xie Xichao didn't make a fuss. After taking some medicine, his fever was almost gone. Apart from body aches, he didn't feel any other discomfort. I have a good appetite now.
As he ate, Guan Heng watched him eat.
After a while, Xie Xichao put down his chopsticks, feeling helpless.
"Brother," he said, "you're making me nervous."
Guan Heng just laughed.
He said, “Is it that exaggerated?”
He paused: "I just didn't expect..."
"Didn't you expect I could dance?" Xie Xichao asked.
"And she dances so well." Guan Heng said.
Xie Xichao said: "I have learned singing and dancing before, but I just learned it for fun."
This was the excuse he had prepared.
It's a very normal experience, and few people would delve into it.
As expected, Guan Heng showed a look of sudden enlightenment and did not ask any more questions. He just said: "Xi Chao, you have become famous this time."
-
Guan Heng was not exaggerating.
This is the benefit of the title of primary C. This is also what Ma Hongping mentioned before as the "fixed impression".
Whether a trainee is strong or not depends first on whether he has enough ability, and then on the various factors imposed on him. Praise from others and the label of honor attached to you.
These things constitute the evaluation system that the public is familiar with.
Of course, there is still a long time before the finals for the initial C, and there are precedents in various auditions where the initial C did not make his debut in the end, but at least, Xie Xichao has now gone from a very talented trainee to a dark horse newcomer internally.
Now, wherever he goes, there are a lot more eyes cast on him.
Xie Xichao doesn't care about other people's opinions, nor does he feel complacent.
He was not the kind of person who would be hard on himself, but after practicing for so many years he still couldn't beat the kids, and it was really embarrassing to say it out loud.
In short, winning is normal, and losing is abnormal.
As for the votes...
It was not until later that Xie Xichao realized that the reason why his vote number was so huge might be partly due to the "students" in the entire practice room he had led.
...I guess this was an unexpected result.
He thought.
Although he didn't actually mean to return the favor.
Although he is now the center of attention, Xie Xichao still goes to the practice room, physical therapy room, cafeteria and dormitory as usual every day.
After a while, the look of people watching monkeys in a zoo disappeared from him.
However, everyone will forget the initial amazement as time goes by, except for one person.
For him, this is not amazing, but more of an indelible shame.
On the day when the first stage recording ended, Xie Xichao met Ai Qingyuan in the bathroom.
*
The recording of the first stage went smoothly. There were so many people, and everyone was very cautious in order not to waste time.
At the end, Jie Xichao even had some strength left, and his body was returning to normal.
He was in a good mood, which was in sharp contrast to Ai Qingyuan's expression.
To be honest, Xie Xichao hasn't seen Ai Qingyuan for several days.
It is said that after the re-evaluation, he locked himself in the practice room.
Guan Heng was very worried and wanted Jie Xichao to go with him to persuade him, but he refused. He said: "My advice is inappropriate."
This is the truth.
No matter how tactful he was, as the source of Ai Qingyuan's frustration, his consolation would be regarded as ridicule.
I don’t know what Guan Heng said, but in any case, Ai Qingyuan has not been so autistic these past two days.
However, this was indeed the first time they met alone.
Xie Xichao said: "Let's go back to the dormitory together?"
Ai Qingyuan pursed his lips.
Just when Xie Xichao thought he would not get a reply, Ai Qingyuan spoke up: "There won't be a third time."
Xie Xichao:?
"I made mistakes on the first stage." Ai Qingyuan raised his eyes, "My skills are not as good as others. If you evaluate me again..."
Xie Xichao: “…”
He swallowed the words "Or am I not as skilled as others?"
This is not good. He said to himself.
Will be beaten.
He can't beat anyone now.
He had a hard time holding it in, but luckily Ai Qingyuan quickly continued talking, his tone was very cold: "In short, next time, I will definitely not lose to you again. Just wait."
Xie Xichao breathed a sigh of relief.
He said calmly, almost kindly, "Okay."
The boy who made the harsh remarks walked away quickly again, coming and going in a hurry. As if it was just for this cruel remark.
Xie Xichao didn't know that the moment the other party declared war, he had become the only opponent worth fighting in the other party's mind.
He was just glad that he had finally restrained himself from saying something mean today, then strolled back to the dormitory and rewarded himself with a cup of lemon tea.
A week later, a new notice was sent to the trainees, and the first performance officially arrived. The 100 trainees will be divided into groups of five, with two groups competing against each other.
This time, they will face the audience for the first time, and the 300 recruited audiences will vote and evaluate to select the winning group and the MVP of each group and even the whole audience.
On the same night when the audience recruitment was launched, the program was announced.
After warm-up, hype and various revelations, the first stage ratings of the third season of "Super Rookie" are finally online.
