Chapter 92
"Oh my gosh, what's going on??"
“Now I look at it and it’s been deleted. I guess I really slipped my hand. But would the idol pay attention to such boring voting in the fan circle? Hahaha, it feels a bit explosive.”
"It seems that I am not a teammate? Uh, it seems even more explosive..."
"Fuck, let me explain. This is our Newstar's Meidi, the Fenghua Xue Li who is just one step away from coming out. The child is ignorant and got carried away for a moment, so we are sorry to embarrass passers-by. We will take him away immediately."
"Ahhhhhh Zheng Yunli, I love you so much!"
"?6"
Although the automatically shared voting Weibo was deleted within seconds, many people still took screenshots of it. All of a sudden, the comment section, which had been a little quiet, became even more lively.
Here, the TP group finished their practice on time at 5:30 in the evening.
When I looked at Weibo again, I found that the world had changed.
Ai Qingyuan twitched his lips: "No."
He asked incredulously: "Is this some kind of performance art?"
Yun Pan was still relatively innocent. He just instantly remembered himself voting just now and felt a little scared: "Maybe I forgot to switch my account, but this is not good."
Of course not.
Xie Xichao glanced at the real-time discussion at the moment.
Many of his fans and TP fans have been complaining that Newstar can't afford to play. Not only did he spy on the fan circle, but he also personally got involved. A trivial matter has become a bigger and bigger thing.
This is a fact.
The reason why Fu Wenzhe specifically reminded Yun Pan not to use a big account just now was because this matter itself is an internal matter of the fan circle.
If it happens to be something that happens within the fan circle, then it’s fine if you happen to see it, but if you really follow the fans into it, especially something like this where a fight could have been fought at such close range, it’s like adding fuel to the fire.
Fu Wenze also frowned: "How could you make such a low-level mistake?"
He is a person who is afraid of trouble, and the trouble here also includes the trouble of his friends. The matter that was about to cool down has become hot again because of Zheng Yunli's stirring, and it will definitely not cool down for a while.
Zou Yi was silent for a moment, then said thoughtfully: "I don't think it's an accident."
He looked at Jie Xichao, who didn't say anything but just put away his phone.
"Let's go," he said, "Let's go eat."
-
We had our meals in Shenghong’s cafeteria.
As a large company, Shenghong’s employee cafeteria is naturally good.
At least all TP members had a free meal once, so they shamelessly treated the cafeteria as their permanent cafeteria.
Xie Xichao ordered a serving of sweet and sour pork ribs, a portion of hot and sour potato shreds and a small bowl of boiled broccoli. He also added a fried egg for himself. When he felt that it was about enough, he returned to his seat.
Zou Yi in front of him ordered a salad.
Their real diet control has not yet begun, Zou Yi's this is purely advance self-management.
Fu Wenze, who was standing by, also saw it and couldn't help but said, "Take it easy."
"Not fat," he said.
Zou Yi laughed: "Ouch, ouch."
"I feel like I've gained some weight." He pinched his face, "I'm just afraid of stepping on the scale for the first time in two days."
"ah--"
It would have been fine if he didn't mention this. As soon as he mentioned it, Yun Pan's face frowned.
There was also a salad in front of him, looking listless.
Fu Wenze said, "Why don't you two go to the gym with Chao Chao and me."
He paused: "And you."
He was referring to Ai Qingyuan who was gnawing on a chicken leg across the street.
Ai Qingyuan was already feeling guilty, and this time he was called out, like a cat whose tail was stepped on: "Practice...just practice! Who's afraid of who?"
Fu Wen Ze snorted and laughed.
A few people were eating and chatting casually, but Jie Xichao was looking at his phone.

Xie Xichao had just finished getting his meal from the window when he saw the message from Guan Heng.
In just a short while, the incident of Zheng Yunli's hand slipping had almost become a hot topic on the search list. It suddenly ranked eighth, and no one would believe me if I said I didn’t buy it.
Under the hot search, there are half and half mocking and controlling comments. However, the number of votes has increased a lot due to this operation which is similar to "urging for votes". At present, the gap has been narrowing. Xie Xichao estimates that it will be surpassed by the evening.
He didn't feel anything. He took a look at the fans. It should be the company's staff who were in charge of the liaison who contacted the fan club. Now everyone has calmed down and is calling on people not to get too excited and battle with their seniors before their official debut.
This is also the reason why the increase in votes has slowed down.
Xie Xichao thought it was great.
Just at this moment, his cell phone vibrated. He took it out and saw a new message.
Guan Heng: In? Our current group is very handsome, let's take a selfie
Xie Xichao:.
Jie Xichao: Don’t be so straight.
Guan Heng: Oo
Jie Xichao casually took a picture of sweet and sour pork ribs and sent it to him, who responded with a bowl of green salad.
Xie Xichao was startled. He typed:
Are you going to make your debut?
Guan Heng: No
Guan Heng: I was originally planning to ride on your popularity, but my boss said that your popularity is too high and you might be blown away, so we postponed our debut.
Guan Heng: But I still have to continue eating the diet meal [crying]
His crying emoticon is a fat and cute rabbit holding a carrot and dropping little pearls.
Xie Xichao accidentally choked on his pork ribs.
His retort startled everyone chatting at the table. Zou Yi quickly pulled out a piece of paper for him.
Xie Xichao waved his hand: "It's okay."
Xie Xichao: Mr. Guan, your painting style has become a little strange recently
Guan Heng: Actually, this emoticon pack is often used by our group’s youngest member, and I stole it.
Xie Xichao:.
He was about to continue speaking when Guan Heng spoke again:
He also asked me to remind you to try not to have too much contact with Renyu’s artists, whether it’s collaboration or anything else. No relationship is the best relationship
This is his real purpose in looking for Jie Xichao.
Xie Xichao’s hand paused.
-
After returning to the dormitory, he called Guan Heng.
The other end picked up the phone quickly: "Hello?"
The background sound is very quiet, and I can hear the rubbing of chairs, which should be the sound of people returning to the room.
"Is Teacher Guan very free recently?" Jie Xichao found a comfortable spot by the bay window, sat down with a blanket, and scribbled on paper with a pen.
"It's OK." Guan Heng smiled and said, "It's just like what I told you. I was pulled back just before my debut. Now I don't know what to do. Fortunately, the promotion hasn't started yet."
Xie Xichao smiled: "Who told you the date of our debut album? We don't even know it ourselves."
"You will definitely debut within half a year." Guan Heng was happy, "I won't sign you back to hide."
That's true.
Xie Xichao said: "Your boss is quite smart."
The popularity of a talent show group cannot be compared to that of a fixed group.
To put it simply and roughly, although The Phoenix has not yet officially debuted as a group, the popularity of the entire group itself is basically that of a first-tier group.
Not to mention the new groups from small companies, even the TOP group Newstar that just had a quarrel with them, if Sheng Hong hadn't intervened, the voting results would have been hard to say.
After all, at the beginning when there was no human intervention, Jie Xichao was leading in the votes.
From this perspective, this active fan test, which is equivalent to a preliminary test, is actually boosting the morale of Jie Xichao's fans.
"Yes." Guan Heng said.
He paused, "But we might bump into each other a little bit, and then maybe we can meet."
"Yeah." Xie Xichao said.
He paused, "Are you doing well now?"
He inferred this from Guan Heng's words. If the relationship was not good, the youngest member of their group would not say such things to Guan Heng.
"Not bad." Guan Heng smiled. "The little brother I just told you on WeChat is very cute, and the other members have good tempers too. I'm pretty lucky."
Xie Xichao heard an unprecedented sense of ease in his tone.
Time is indeed the best medicine that can heal everything.
New encounters too.
He didn't ask any more questions, but just got back to the point: "Renyu is not a good company, right?"
Guan Heng paused and said, "Yeah."
"You should have guessed it." He said, "It's about Zheng Yunli."
Xie Xichao thought for a moment and said, "Fake news?"
"Did they also start a business?" he asked, "Are these two Americans?"
He didn't know much about this group and was just guessing based on past experience.
Guan Heng laughed.
"I knew I wouldn't worry about you," he said.
*
Xie Xichao had indeed guessed it a long time ago.
But the time he guessed was actually earlier than Guan Heng thought.
It wasn't when Zheng Yunli came out to vote, but when they started arguing about the tags.
To be honest, he has seen more fan circle quarrels than Zheng Yunyue has accidentally cast votes in his life. He can basically tell at a glance which ones are coincidences and which ones are manipulated by someone or a company behind the scenes.
What's more, after learning more about it, we found out that this group had such a previous record.
To be honest, relying on making trouble, quarreling and abusing fans to retain fans is just wasting fans. Xie Xichao knew that this was a common practice among major companies, but he always felt that this method was unethical and would not last long.
When he said long-term, he meant reaching the summit.
Otherwise, how come Newstar has debuted for two years and is still fighting for the title of being the only group with the best looks instead of being the only top group?
Because I dare not.
Xie Xichao and Guan Heng chatted for a while, and Guan Heng told him that there was a reason why Renyu Company had not been able to produce a popular group for so many years.
Perhaps it was because the first generation of Victory was too successful, which whetted their appetite and made them always want to become famous overnight.
When you fail, you think of taking shortcuts. To this day, the regiment’s route is still a mess.
"But I think their members are also adapting well." Guan Heng said, "If I didn't know that Zheng Yunli and Xue Zixiao had been at odds over the core concept of the group since their debut and were basically strangers in private, I would have thought they were going to get married just by looking at their interactions."
Xie Xichao: “…”
"Teacher Guan, did you just say something extraordinary?" he said.
Is this gossip he can listen to?
On the other end of the phone, Guan Heng said calmly: "I didn't say anything."
Xie Xichao: “…Okay.”
After hanging up the phone, Jie Xichao came down from the bay window.
After thinking about it, he gave up the idea of posting a business Weibo today and left the inventory for later.
After a simple wash, Jie Xichao turned off the lights and went to sleep, ending the day like countless ordinary nights.
-
After he and Guan Heng understood the situation clearly that day, Xie Xichao no longer paid attention to this matter.
It turns out that this is not something to be concerned about. Because apart from that one voting slip and the much-talked-about repeated online post-slip, Newstar did not make any inappropriate comments on the matter.
The matter ended with fans disliking each other and passers-by talking about it.
The voting result naturally showed that Xue Zixiao won.
But the win was also very embarrassing.
The vote difference was finally locked at 1,539 votes. In the words of an unscrupulous passerby, "Luckily the marketing account closed the deadline quickly, otherwise Xie Xichao would have to pull off another comeback, which is what he is best at."
Xie Xichao was also quite surprised.
But Miao Haicheng, who had been keeping an eye on the background data, knew the situation clearly.
This is really not the result of Jie Xichao's fans' efforts. The voting eventually expanded to passers-by, who joined the voting.
As passers-by joined the voting, the gap narrowed, and it became clear what it meant. Everyone was half-hearted due to adult dignity, only Yun Pan told the truth honestly:
"Wow, doesn't that mean that in the eyes of strangers, I am still better looking."
Xie Xichao: “…”
Miao Haicheng: “…”
Miao Haicheng coughed and said, "Okay, let's not talk about this anymore."
"I called you here today," he said, getting back to the point, "to talk to you about the song selection for the next album."
As they were talking, the leader of their team arrived, and several people sat down together and started the song selection meeting for the day.
