37 Support
Although the sports meet special did not create a huge hit like the previous episodes, it received very good reviews among the fans of "I Have No Future". They said that there are so many trainees like this in their daily lives, and they can watch them stay together for a whole day even if they do nothing.
There are also fans who planned to go to the debut battle site and those who didn't get tickets and can only watch the live broadcast at home. Thinking that there is only one month left of such a happy day, they began to lament in the official Weibo comment section and the comment section of Yuan Xiao's account in advance:
"All 25 babies are really, really good babies. Can't we let them all debut?"
"I can't choose, I'll be heartbroken no matter who is eliminated. This is the first time I've been a fan of a group in so many years. You've done so many evil things."
"I can't imagine how much I'll cry when the day of my debut comes."
"Yuan Xiao, you'd better send a few more people to debut instead of forcing me to kneel down and beg you."
Of course Yuan Xiao has seen such comments, and there is nothing he can do about it. Not to mention that no matter how many people debut in the end, there will always be people who are dissatisfied. The series of debut resources that have already been determined in advance cannot be changed at will. He can only say thank you to the fans for their love.
After the debut battle, many fans may have to say goodbye to the trainees they picked for a long time. Yuan Xiao does not intend to completely ban support on such special days. She has sent emails to each trainee's fan club, stipulating the specific venues where each fan club can organize support and requiring fans to organize support reasonably and safely.
Yuan Xiao prepared for a rainy day because she had been chasing stars in two lifetimes, both online and offline. She knew too well the sources of offline disputes, most of which originated from disputes over land occupation.
Whether it is supporting a concert, a drama wrap, or a variety show, fans often have to start queuing early at night in order to get a more conspicuous and larger support venue. Using stickers and other things to reserve a spot and punch in is always unsafe. Later on, real people have to take part, and some even arrange a duty roster a month in advance to reserve a spot at the support venue every night. It is both hard and unsafe.
This way of reserving seats is actually a reflection of the fans' high politeness in avoiding friction and following the rules. Everyone's overall quality is very high, but as long as there is inevitably a bad apple in the huge fan base, the conflict will escalate instantly, spreading from offline to online, and finally become the origin of the mutual attacks and feuds between the two fan groups.
Yuan Xiao can name a lot of similar examples no matter which world they are in. Some idol companies that fail to plan ahead will cause disputes between artists in the group whenever they have similar offline activities. The accounts of grudges are getting higher and higher, and some even end up in the police station. Even artists who have nothing to do with each other sometimes become rivals inexplicably because of offline support issues.
Therefore, for this debut battle, Genshin Impact adopted an unprecedentedly tough attitude, requiring all fan clubs to cheer only within the designated area at the entrance square in front of the stadium.
Some trainees' fan clubs were not reconciled. The popular ones thought they had a great chance of debuting, and they wanted to make a big celebration of the final performance, but Yuanxin only approved such a small venue. The fan clubs of the trainees with lower rankings were even more confused, and they didn't know if they would have the opportunity to organize such a support again in the future. It was a relief for themselves and the fans, and they were also not satisfied.
But this time, Yuan Xin's attitude was extremely firm. When communicating with various fan clubs, he made it clear that either they followed the rules or were not allowed to support.
Well, considering that the debut opportunities are still controlled by the company, regardless of whether they can understand the original rules, the fan clubs can only accept it. Fortunately, the specific support form and design company is still not in charge, so they can give full play to their abilities and save the trouble of arranging in advance.
Of course, if the fan club wants to organize offline check-ins at locations other than the capital's venues, do data tasks in exchange for large-screen carousel promotions, etc., these companies will not prohibit it.
After all, these rigid regulations are for the benefit of the trainees and fans.
Some fans who have had experience in chasing stars realized later that this... is not bad?
In response to this, Yuan Xiao said: You'll get used to it, and this rule will apply to all groups under Yuan Xin in the future. In this Internet age where idols pay for fans' behavior, it will definitely not leave outsiders with a weird impression that fans of Yuan Xin are "powerful".
She was extremely busy during this period, taking care of the trainees and the program recording, taking care of the timely delivery of the peripherals, and keeping an eye on the process design of the entire debut battle. Because it was a completely live broadcast format that had never been seen before, many materials that could have been re-recorded and added later needed to be recorded and prepared in advance to prevent the online audience from getting bored during the inevitable free time such as the scene change.
Even the system began to feel sorry for her, and took the time to say to Yuan Xiao:
[Your popularity has accumulated enough to go back to your original timeline for 78 hours. Do you want to use your popularity to go back and take a vacation? ]
Yuan Xiao hadn't paid attention to her popularity score for a long time. Hearing this, he raised his eyebrows and asked, "A lot of people have praised me recently?"
[I also counted the positive comments about the program as my positive comments about you.] The system's tone was smug, and its desire for praise was obvious.
"You are awesome." Yuan Xiao has recently been working on improving his skills in child psychology and spoke highly of the system.
"But let's put off the vacation for now." Yuan Xiao thought about her schedule before she traveled through time, and felt that it would be difficult to take a vacation after she returned. There were so many things to do here, and if she couldn't help but start using the exchanged time to work, it would simply tarnish the sacred vacation. "After the debut battle is over, I will give myself a long vacation!"
All the members of the Yuanxin project team had the same idea as her. Although the company was always happy and generous in giving money, work was for life after all. Yuan Xiao had already promised to give everyone a week-long vacation after the debut battle. Except for the publicity team who had to keep people on duty to monitor public opinion with triple pay, the other teams could have a good rest.
The trainees are the same, always keeping a string tight, which can easily break.
Yuan Xiao has the money to give out bonuses. After the first three episodes were aired, the program data was very good and the fan stickiness was also very high. Although Yuan Xiao gave up a lot of profits in the channel and couldn't get any suitable sponsors when the recording started because of his lack of popularity, as soon as the program became popular, the whole world came to support it.
According to the contract, Yuan Xiao, as the producer of the program, is going to get a portion of the profits from the platform's patch ads. An even bigger share is the title sponsorship of the several-hour live broadcast of the debut battle. Yuan Xiao and Liu Zhu chose the most famous mobile phone brand with the highest national popularity from all the manufacturers and brands that they contacted actively.
The other party was warm and generous, and Yuan Xiao did not ask for an excessive price. The main goal was a win-win cooperation.
Only after a good collaboration can there be the next one. From the title sponsorship of the debut battle to the first endorsement of the newly debuted Stary group, this is very natural.
Yuan Xiao was particularly stiff in company meetings during this month of good revenue. Gu Yuchen noticed the subtle difference in the angle of his boss's chin when he repeatedly submitted demos, so he took the opportunity to make a request:
"A German brand has recently released a condenser microphone. You know, the sound pickup effect of a recording microphone is very important. We will record an album after our debut." Teacher Gu's serious expression seemed to be fake. "Why do you always talk about recording studio singers? Because the quality of the studio directly improves the quality of the human voice. I think the microphone in our studio is still a bit old."
Yuan Xiao: “Buy.”
"The monitor speakers in my studio are also several years old..."
Yuan Xiao remained calm and said, "Buy it."
“Compressors and mic preamps…”
Yuan Xiao's patience was gradually approaching its limit: "Buy."
"earphone?"
"Buy, buy, buy." Yuan Xiao squinted at him. "Does your family need any electrical appliances? Do you want the company to replace them for you? Color TV, refrigerator, washing machine?"
"That's not necessary." Gu Yuchen curved his eyes at her, "But if you can order one more S6M40, you will receive my most sincere blessings."
"What is that?"
"Digital mixing console."
"..." Yuan Xiao was speechless. No wonder he didn't say the full name. "Why does it sound like the last one is the most expensive?"
"Yes." Gu Yuchen sat upright in front of her desk with his hands clasped together, looking particularly pious: "But you get what you pay for. Every penny you spend is well spent, I promise."
"Buy, buy, buy," Yuan Xiao felt like she was dressed like a CEO the moment she said this. Unfortunately, all these things were handled by the company's finance department, so she didn't need to use her black card. "You order from your channels and the company will reimburse you. Buy, buy the best."
After all, it is to purchase equipment for the company's studio, which can be used by subsequent groups, so it is not a loss-making business.
"Thank you." Gu Yuchen knew very well that he should not push his luck further, so he wanted to run away after receiving the oral order, but was called back by Yuan Xiao.
"How are the songs you mentioned before that you would contact the Central Music Orchestra to record going?" The album recording can be put off for later. What Yuan Xiao is more concerned about now is the accompaniment for the final stage. It would be best to get it all ready in advance, and after the stage sound system is in place, try the effect once before making further adjustments.
"Not yet. I've adjusted the arrangement of the C section. I'll send it to you when it's finished."
"No need to send me." Yuan Xiao had not forgotten the idea she had made at the sports meeting. "The venue will be rented starting next week. They said the stage will be ready by next weekend. You can come with me to try it out then."
"Okay." Gu Yuchen nodded, not realizing what the man in front of him was thinking. As a stage director, this was part of his job.
After getting to know him, his personality became quite obvious. As long as he wasn't extremely sleepy, he would talk a lot and even seemed a bit lively, which was very different from Yuan Xiao's first impression of him.
It was only after working together for a while that she realized that Gu Yuchen had actually been the youngest in a group for many years. He dyed his hair in colorful colors and swayed his hips enthusiastically on the stage. He also dealt with the old-fashioned hosts who dared to ask anything in variety shows. Under the influence of his older brothers, he gradually learned to talk nonsense.
What kind of mature behind-the-scenes producer is this? This guy is just a childish guy with a very low sense of humour.
