Prelude
It was lunchtime, and the cosplayers who were on a self-guided tour also needed to rest. Therefore, the guests did not gather in front of them in large numbers.
Soon, the seven Auroras pushed and shoved their way to the interstellar beauty.
"Wow!" Du Xingwei held his face and exclaimed loudly.
He likes anime and pretty cosplay photos, but he has some "Ye Gonghaolong" elements.
I have never been to a comic convention before, so I have a deep understanding of ACE culture.
Apart from Ai-chan on the final night, it was the first time he saw the characters from the anime appear alive in front of him, and his pupils dilated several times due to excitement.
"Hello - so exquisite! How did you do that? How did your ears become elf ears?"
The handsome god of war lowered his eyes and glanced at Du Xingwei lightly with a deep gaze.
"I'm sorry, I think I offended you." Du Xingwei clasped his hands together and begged for mercy, "This is my first time participating. I have no ill intentions, I'm just purely curious, please don't be angry~"
The other person was still staring at Du Xingwei, as if he wanted to see something from his face, or make him see something from his face.
The makeup lady who was accompanying them saw that the two of them were staring at each other for too long, so she stepped out to explain, "The elf's ear tips are not glued on, because no matter how hard you glue them on, there will still be gaps and differences in texture. So we made a mold of the ear and put it on top of his original ear. Cover it with hair so that you can't see the gap at the back, do you understand?"
"Oh~ I understand!" Du Xingwei stood on tiptoe, got very close, stared at his ears for a while, and then he was sure that the ears were not grown by the beauty himself.
"You are actually a real person." Du Xingwei was even more amazed, "You are so beautiful, I thought you traveled back from an anime. The last time I thought so was when my teammate turned into a girl. I thought he traveled back from the Warring States Period."
After saying that, Du Xingwei noticed that the other person's eyes darkened.
He thought that he had talked too much nonsense and upset the beautiful lady, so he angrily stopped talking and prepared to leave pitifully.
For the other six teammates, they wanted to accompany Du Xingwei more than they wanted to see the beauty.
They didn't understand the ecosystem of independent travel. Seeing that the Star Wars God ignored Du Xingwei, and hearing people around them chattering about how beauties were designed to be 'cold', they didn't strike up a conversation with him. They just glanced at him quickly and prepared to leave.
Mu Gan, holding a cup of bamboo tube milk tea, lazily fell behind and slowly walked past the interstellar beauty.
The distance was very close, he took away the milk tea cup, stared at the other person for a few seconds, then moved closer to smell it.
"Yi Jingchen?" Mu Gan opened his eyes wide and asked with his mouth.
Yi Jingchen was being "ignored" by his teammates and was feeling depressed, but when he noticed Mu Gan's reaction, he became energetic again.
He stared at Mu Gan eagerly, as if asking with his eyes "How did you recognize me?"
"I can smell the original body. You smell like a kitten." Mu Gan took another sip of milk tea and pointed to the inconspicuous part of Yi Jingchen's fake hair. "It's still stained with its hair."
Yi Jingchen lowered his head silently and did not see the hair.
Mu Gan reached out and stroked his hair, then turned around and prepared to leave.
"Don't tell them." Yi Jingchen whispered, "My teammates don't know I'm doing this outside."
Mu Gan complained, "What a lame joke," but still responded.
Even if Yi Jingchen didn't remind him, he was too lazy to say it.
——Who made them unable to recognize it?
The peak passenger flow for independent travel activities is often concentrated in the afternoon and evening.
There were many kids who had not originally planned to attend, but when they heard that a god-level SSR had been unveiled, they all rushed over.
The interstellar beauty had been surrounded in the morning, and there would be even more people in the afternoon, so I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to escape.
Moreover, the team had only applied for half a day.
After noon, the beauty who captivated everyone waved her sleeves and disappeared into the bustling crowd.
The little kid who came back empty-handed could only breathe the air where the beauty had stayed, feeling full of disappointment.
"I saw the picture in the group and immediately put on makeup and rushed over. Why did he leave?"
"I came a little late. I really wanted to see if she was as beautiful as in the photo."
"I was there, I can testify, she was even more beautiful than in the photo, so beautiful that it took my breath away! Scream! Explode right on the spot!"
"Will he come tomorrow? Is there any preview on Weibo?"
"Come to think of it, has no one dug out his Weibo yet?"
"He didn't say it himself, but everyone guessed..."
Everyone is guessing, but no one has made it clear.
After all, with so many people at the scene, no one could recognize the beauty's face 100%.
Even with 99.9% accuracy, if there is a 0.1% error, you may have to quit teaching.
Just as a small number of people were hesitating, wondering whether to speak out their guesses.
The young lady who just played the role of the little prince and took photos with the beauty posted a new Weibo post with her own language.
'Aa ...
Even through the screen, everyone could feel her screams of joy, and they all teased the young lady for being so reserved on stage, but being a little idiot on the Internet.
She just revealed her Weibo ID. The video and photos were widely circulated, and her followers increased rapidly.
Looking through the follow list, I'm not sure who she follows.
Everyone studied her previous Weibo and found that this silly girl recorded in detail the entire process of preparing clothes, making props, and trying on clothes.
The first time she put on the full makeup of the little prince, she took a selfie in the mirror and posted a message a little shyly:
'Although I can't make it as delicate as my cat, I'm very satisfied that I can do it to this level for the first time~'
Look at her previous Weibo reposts. Maodian actively comments and reposts every Weibo post, so anyone can guess who she is supporting.
Following this clue, everyone opened the big account of Cat Palace which had not been open for a long time.
There are no new members, but the number of followers increases by one.
Maodian is obviously a top cosplayer, but he does not regard himself as an internet celebrity or a big shot. He will read everyone's private messages carefully and try his best to reply to cat fans in need.
If I meet someone I admire who shares the same interests as me or is a great contributor, I will follow them.
Therefore, +1 follower count for a big account doesn’t seem to be a big deal.
The problem is that when everyone clicked on Maodian’s new followers, they found that the person he was following was the young lady just now.
The cat chef took a breath.
It’s confirmed.
The cat palace had been wandering around unscrupulously for so long, and even with so many cat fans present, not one dared to go over and claim their own cat.
The online cat fans were very excited, and Chen's sister also joined in and suggested that they quit the church collectively.
The cat chef felt very aggrieved and retorted: Look at his face, can you recognize him?
My elder sister: ...
Sorry to bother you, goodbye.
My silly silver tabby cat doesn't look like this.
After netizens followed the clues, the identity of the SSR issued by the free travel was finally confirmed, causing more people to regret and wonder why they did not rush to participate.
Maodian Benmao didn't intend to keep it a secret from everyone, and when he saw that Maochu had discovered it, he generously shared a group of photos taken after he left. The photo with the young lady was placed in the center, and he tagged the other person.
The young lady rushed over and almost fainted with happiness. She posted hundreds of confessions in the comment section of Cat Palace, making the surrounding cat fans extremely jealous.
[My cat is resurrecting! ! ! ]
[Resurrection! My love~! ]
[Jealousy makes me blind! Jealousy makes me split apart!! Why didn’t you inform me in advance!!!]
[Back to the above, there is a tradition of opening blind boxes among free travellers, and other cosplayers will not notify in advance. In addition, there are traffic and passenger flow controls on site, and the event will not be able to proceed if all cat fans go.]
[u1s1, actually, the Left Protector gave us a sneak peek. She also organized an offline group, but many people didn’t participate because it was too hot and crowded.]
[Woo woo woo, is this God’s punishment for a lazy guy?]
[In fact, if the first batch of cat fans could recognize it, they would have enough time to pass the message to the organization. But they were only concerned about Shashasha! ]
[I'm laying my cards on the table. I'm just an old pervert who can only do shashasha.]
[Next time someone says that Maodian is purely retouched, I will really get angry! I am really super delicate, like a moving BJD doll]
[It is no exaggeration to say that I have a beauty that looks like someone who grew up drinking dew and has never pooped in my life. I have managed to get a real paper man.]
[Is it really that beautiful? I don’t believe it. It’s not like I haven’t seen stupid silver gradients before [Lemon Essence.jpg]]
[Silly Silver Gradient and Cat Palace are from two different universe dimensions, please don’t touch me, thank you]
[Am I the only one who envied the girl who took photos with Maodian? When is the next event? Is it too late to prepare for cosplay now?]
At the same time, after taking the photos, Yi Jingchen took off his exquisite and gorgeous makeup, changed into private clothes, squatted at the air outlet of the air conditioner, and stuck out his tongue to cool down.
Li Jibai packed up his clothes and props, turned around and saw his senior's appearance, and suddenly felt a little disconnected.
Honestly speaking, when I first recognized Yi Jingchen, he had eight hundred layers of filters and often confused the second and third dimensions.
After three months of getting along, Little JB has already grasped the difference between 'Yi Jingchen' and 'Mao Dian'.
How could a cat, as noble as a god, stick out its tongue to cool down?
"Put your tongue back, you're not a dog." The makeup girl brushed away her sweaty hair and handed Yi Jingchen a bottle of ice water.
"It's hot!" Yi Jingchen unscrewed the bottle cap and complained, "The highest temperature today is 30 degrees, and I'm wearing four layers of clothes!"
At the end of April, all parts of the country entered the summer mode with one click.
The officials who organized the free travel event specifically looked at the weather forecast and chose a good day with clear skies.
The look that Yi Jingchen finally decided on is not only beautiful, but the makeup effect is also exceptionally stunning.
However, in the hot summer, wearing heavy military uniform and long boots, standing in the sun, he even felt like he was having a sauna inside his clothes.
Li Jibai and the makeup girl accompanied him out and took photos, so they could naturally understand Yi Jingchen's feelings.
The two people were wearing thin short-sleeved shirts and sun hats, but they were still sweating profusely from the heat.
Li Jibai felt so hot during the trip that he went to buy some bayberry jelly to cool off.
But Yi Jingchen was afraid of his makeup coming off, so he couldn't eat and could only watch them eat.
"Senior, you have worked hard." Li Jibai said sincerely.
Even though it was so hot, Yi Jingchen did not break down until he left for the photo shoot.
Sure enough, the cosplay costume seems to be his seal.
The makeup lady also praised, "Your cat design is well maintained today."
"Of course, I tried my best~" Yi Jingchen raised his cat face proudly.
"but--"
The makeup lady suddenly changed the subject.
"I can't take part in the free tour next time."
Free travel activities are large in scale, have low thresholds, and relatively weak security.
This time, he relied on Yi Jingchen's stable cat character and the makeup artist's makeup skills that even his own mother wouldn't recognize.
In addition, everyone knows that Yi Jingchen has had a lot of announcements since his debut, so many people didn’t think about it that way. Even if they did, they were afraid of the embarrassment of admitting their mistakes, so they didn’t cause any trouble.
With this previous experience, there is a high chance that Yi Jingchen will be recognized next time he travels independently.
Even ACG activities are mostly for the second dimension who are not interested in the entertainment industry. However, Yi Jingchen's popularity is rising, and refugees will be targeted by paparazzi and extreme fans.
Yi Jingchen let out an "ah" sound, his expression clearly disappointed.
The makeup lady added, "There are many non-commercial exhibitions now. The security is quite good and the atmosphere is good. I will help you contact them later."
"Okay~" Yi Jingchen agreed and said happily, "I want to participate in the ACG exhibition next year."
"Are you serious? There are cat lovers in there." The makeup lady stared at the stupid cat, "You will be sucked dry by them."
"It's not that scary." Yi Jingchen muttered fearfully, "I have nine lives."
Li Jibai thought about it and said seriously, "Even if you have ninety lives, it's still not enough for them to absorb."
Yi Jingchen: ...
Shouldn't.
I'm just a weak little kitty.
Du Xingwei and his teammates happily visited the exhibition and returned to the dormitory, only to find that Maodian had been enrolled in the afternoon.
Seeing his new Weibo post, Aurora was collectively devastated.
"He...that...huh?!"
"No, it's fake, right?"
"So, that's Yi Jingchen?"
"To be precise, that is the Cat Palace, and the person in the Cat Palace is Yi Jingchen."
"I'm almost confused! Anyway, we met the captain, right?"
"Ah! No wonder he stared at me for so long!"
Six people gathered around the phone, opened the large pictures, and checked one by one, with disbelief written all over their faces.
Noticing that Mu Gan was still drinking milk nearby, everyone thought he didn't react and put the screen under Mu Gan's nose.
"Look! That beautiful guy we met today turned out to be Yi Jingchen! He even pretended not to know us!"
"Hold it farther away." Nai Gan pushed his hand away, "How can I see clearly like this?"
Mu Gan just glanced at it and said calmly, "I know."
"How do you know?!" The teammates looked at him with suspicion.
Mu Gan didn't bother to explain and gave the most powerful reason, "Because we are teammates."
“…”
The air fell into silence.
Mu Gan stabbed again, "What? Could it be that someone can't even recognize his teammates?"
“…”
Stop swearing, stop swearing!
Before Yi Jingchen returned to the dormitory, he thought about meeting Senior Mushroom and other friends during the day.
Du Xingwei is interested in free travel, and big data will definitely push related content. It is very likely that they know that he secretly went out to do cat things without telling anyone.
Yi Jingchen sneaked back to the dormitory, ready for the storm.
As a result, the dormitory was peaceful and the teammates even prepared dinner in advance.
"Captain, you're back." You Lingyu greeted with a smile.
Yan Zhichen was holding the main body and feeding it freeze-dried food, completing the "cat feeding task" assigned by Yi Jingchen very well.
The others were gathered in the kitchen. When they heard the noise, Shu Lang poked his head out and said, "Wash your hands and get ready to eat. You didn't eat enough yesterday, so I made braised prawns today."
"Wow! Brother, you are so nice!" Yi Jingchen was very touched, but he felt something was wrong.
[My teammates seem a little strange.]
[Don't you have anything to ask me?]
Yi Jingchen blinked his cat eyes, moved closer to Mu Gan who was listening to music on the sofa, and asked him if he had leaked any secrets.
Mu Gan said casually, "No, they found it themselves."
"They already know?" Yi Jingchen looked around in confusion, "Then what about them?"
[Even if you don't scold me, you should at least say a few words, right?]
"Who knows." Mu Gan yawned lazily, "Maybe he feels guilty."
My teammate, who I had been with day and night for four months, didn't recognize me at all.
If they don't feel guilty, who should?
.
In the era of electronic music, the process of releasing music albums has been greatly simplified, and the release cycle has also been shortened.
Many music albums are released in stages, dividing the album into pre-release songs, main songs, concept songs, etc., and releasing one song at a time.
Phased release, although not like releasing a whole album, allows listeners to listen to all the songs at once.
But the advantage is that it can extend the exposure time and ensure that each song has enough exposure resources, ensuring that each song will not become a "lost pearl in the ocean" due to insufficient marketing promotion.
In addition, releasing only one song at a time also makes it easier for fans to organize a chart rush so that their energy is not dispersed, which is very suitable for traffic-based singers.
Aurora has just debuted and has no works to their credit, so they need to rely on charts to let more people hear their voices.
The operating company naturally decided to adopt a phased release approach.
Less than a month after the new group debuted, the first album's pre-release song "Plan A" was released.
It is the end of spring and the beginning of summer, and everything is romantic.
The singles released during this stage are usually simple, bright and fresh, and most of them are love songs.
Idol groups of similar age or positioning to Aurora have released new songs in the past two months, which are basically simple and light-hearted love songs.
Aurora did the exact opposite.
"Plan A" is a passionate, explosive, and convincing single with the theme of being firm in the path you have chosen and preferring death over plan B.
The promotional copy has become a new meme in the circle: "Fight for our honor and never compromise with fate."
Countless eyes in the industry are always paying attention to Aurora's movements and judging their future development trends.
Upon learning that Aurora was releasing a passionate song as a pre-release song for their new album in this romantic spring, countless "experts" began to predict the future.
You know, fans of talent shows are mostly 'dream girls' who imagine their idols are their boyfriends or other close people.
After popular singers release new songs, they rely heavily on fans to vote for them.
Therefore, they should try their best to please their fans and sing some love songs that their fans like.
What kind of idol group’s first song after debuting, instead of trying their best to please their fans, only cares about their own beliefs?
Show fans have always had the stereotype of being "heartless". After their debut, more than half of them left, and people in the circle called them "March show fans".
Aurora's willful behavior may force the remaining fans to run away.
Other artists and management companies in the industry think so, believing that Aurora will become an obscure entity due to its unwise operations and will not be able to impact the existing traffic structure.
Who would have thought that within just ten minutes of the release of "Plan", the number of comments on the song had already exceeded one million.
Within one hour of being online, the song ranked in the top ten of the new song chart.
Five hours after it was online, it topped the daily playback charts.
Fans of each group reached a consensus and collectively impacted the new song chart this month.
The listeners who are attracted by the list are naturally prejudiced when they see that it is a song by their idols.
I clicked on it and listened for a while, and I was actually moved by the passionate atmosphere and the determination that was completely different from those soft idols.
When I opened the comment section, I saw that there were about half fans and half passers-by.
You know, when many popular singers release songs, the comment section is almost always filled with fans.
Anyone who dares to leave a bad or even neutral comment will be cursed by extreme fans.
Moreover, many works of popular singers are clearly for their fans only and cannot be appreciated by passers-by at all.
"Plan A" uses a very new form to break through the circle.
Moreover, the lyrics and composition of the entire song, although simple, can perfectly awaken everyone's innate heroism.
[Our little group! They don’t follow the beaten path. I love them~]
[It was so exciting! I got up in the middle of the night and took a cold shower]
[Who understands? When I was a kid, I often imagined myself in a war-torn era, fighting bravely and never giving in. I thought the idea was stupid, and I forgot it when I grew up. Now I realize that I have not forgotten it at all.]
[Who wouldn’t want to? Our Chinese nation is full of martial virtues]
[Are you referring to the child asking questions? Hahaha! ]
[What did I miss? What is the plot of the child asking about the core? ]
[Back upstairs, a group of primary school students visited a warship before. One child pointed at the launch pad and asked, "Can this be loaded with nuclear bombs?" The tour guide was shocked. Our fear of insufficient firepower has spread to the next generation.]
[Don't go too far, we still hope for world peace. If the world is not peaceful, at least our country is peaceful]
[Yes! We don’t cause trouble, and we are not afraid of being attacked]
[Woc! Although some of the above people may have over-interpreted this song, when I listened to it again, I felt that I saw the epitome of our culture. Because each generation of our ancestors did not choose plan B, and bravely and firmly defended this land, the Chinese civilization can continue to this day.]
[Sublimated, sublimated! 】
"Plan A" sounds simple at first, but after being interpreted by netizens, it seems so profound that more and more people come to listen, and the popularity is soaring at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The operating company followed the song’s response in real time and found it incredible.
During the review meeting, Liu Sui walked into the Aurora dormitory and apologized to them immediately.
"I am short-sighted."
"This wave you are on the fifth floor."
In fact, during the song selection meeting, the company gave more than 20 demo songs to be released first, all of which were sweet love songs that catered to the market.
The team members played those songs over and over again, but in the end, they didn't choose any one.
They knew that the company wanted to please fans through love songs and maintain Aurora's popularity.
However, it is difficult to relate to the situation when a group of younger brothers who have no experience in love are asked to sing about love.
"I have another question." Yi Jingchen asked, "Have you ever heard of the word 'homogenization'?"
His teammates looked at him, half said they had heard of it, and half said they had not.
"'Homogeneity' refers to a trend, a phenomenon. For example, if a milk tea shop opens in a certain place and the business is very good, and many milk tea shops also open around it, what will be the result?"
"I know!" Du Xingwei raised his hand and replied, "Everyone's business has become worse!"
"Yes, Senior Mushroom is really amazing~" Yi Jingchen continued to explain, "The phenomenon of homogenization exists not only in the market, but also in the media. To give the simplest example, in our station, the same material is only allowed to be used once. If the news is reported for the second time, it is no longer called 'news'."
"I understand what the captain means." You Lingyu took over and said, "We have also been doing background checks during this period. There are too many new songs and sweet songs released recently."
"Yes, even if fans are willing to listen to us sing sweet songs, can we expand our audience base with this?"
Liu Sui fell into deep thought.
It is true that in the past, idol boy groups’ debut albums were exclusively for fans, and as long as they could retain the fans, it was considered a great victory.
The sweet song market is currently becoming saturated, and only sweet songs of particularly high quality will be favored.
But Aurora's singing skills are a serious weakness.
The company's top vocalists were criticized for their singing skills and were simply unable to win favor through their skills.
Liu Sui asked with a headache, "So what ideas do you have?"
"Brother Liu, I have a bold idea!" Yi Jingchen said, "They are all called Aurora, the second-year hot-blooded group. In this case, why can't our first album have its own style?"
"You mean..." Liu Sui rubbed his forehead fiercely, "Are you sure the fans will accept it?"
In the past, idol fans all wanted to see their idols act coquettishly, be cute, and make a heart shape with their hands.
The style they require is unlikely to be integrated into these actions, so how can they please their fans?
Yi Jingchen was extremely determined, and his teammates also supported his idea.
Liu Sui had no choice but to agree reluctantly.
Although the pre-release song was called "Plan A", Liu Sui actually prepared Plan B and even Plan C.
If passionate songs don't work, he will immediately ask Aurora to sing sweet songs.
The results are obvious.
Liu Sui's alternative plan was in vain, as he was taught a lesson by these kids.
He came to the dormitory, intending to praise his nine younger brothers, but he found them lying all over the place.
"You guys...what happened?"
"It's too difficult to choreograph the song. My child is already exhausted from dancing."
"I feel like winking and making a heart shape with the hands is easier now."
Liu Sui: “???”
Okay.
People's joys and sorrows are different.
.
Although the popularity of "Plan A" continued to rise, Aurora did not immediately arrange its debut.
Originally, the company planned to have them promote their songs on variety shows. However, considering the popularity of "Plan A", variety show promotions would not be taken seriously enough or grand enough, so they cancelled the promotion segment and prepared to look for a suitable venue.
Secondly, because——
The Aurora players brought this upon themselves.
The passionate singing needs to be accompanied by difficult dance moves. There are several members in the group who have weak basic skills and need to practice dozens or even hundreds of times.
The torture that Yi Jingchen suffered was far more than just rehearsal.
After working so hard, the graduation thesis defense also began.
Every day, he dragged his tired body back to the dormitory and had to prepare the PPT needed for the defense.
Fortunately, the material for the graduation thesis came entirely from Yi Jingchen himself, so it was very convenient to obtain the material.
Since there were not enough pages for the PPT, Yi Jingchen took out his mobile phone and took two selfies to fill up one page.
Yi Jingchen, who used selfies and templates to present PPT, was a little worried that he would fail the defense.
Unexpectedly, the defense process went quite smoothly.
The several instructors in charge of the defense were all senior professors from the Journalism Department. They had taught Yi Jingchen before and did not make things too difficult for him.
Compared to the defense itself, Yi Jingchen used himself as a case to deeply analyze the role of news media, and seriously recounted his experience from an amateur to a traffic star, which made it difficult for everyone not to laugh.
Especially at the end of the PPT, he took two selfies, which made even the professionally trained professor burst out laughing.
"That's right. Through your analysis, we have fully understood how this... artist named Yi gained popularity through online communication, and we also know the role played by the media in the process."
Yi Jingchen looked at the professor. Through his serious description, he seemed to hear him saying "hahahaha" in his heart.
It was not until this moment that he began to doubt whether his graduation advisor had betrayed him.
[Is this called a graduation defense?]
[It’s clearly a public execution!]
"Entertainment media is an emerging field in our college. It is not easy to write an excellent paper. It is even more difficult for you to have such comprehensive materials."
Yi Jingchen confirmed.
The professor was really trying to hold back his laughter.
Fortunately, although the professor laughed, he still gave Yi Jingchen a high score for his defense and let him pass.
Passing the defense meant that all he had to do next was wait for graduation.
"Thank you, mentors~" Yi Jingchen smiled instantly, thanked the professors, and prepared to share the good news with his classmates.
He packed up his notebook and USB drive, and before he walked out of the classroom, he was stopped by the professor.
"Wait, there is one more thing I want to ask of you."
Yi Jingchen turned around and asked, "What's the matter?"
Half an hour later, led by his teacher, he arrived at the Affiliated Middle School of University A.
The Affiliated Middle School of A University is a famous key middle school in the city and even in the country, with a particularly high admission rate.
Among them, there are two dazzling classes, the Rocket Class and the International Class.
There are a total of 50 students in each rocket class, and almost all of them can be admitted to famous universities including University A.
Students in the international class have traveled all over the world to realize their great ambitions.
There were only thirty days left before the college entrance examination. When the school heard that Yi Jingchen would defend his thesis today, they asked a professor they were familiar with to bring him to the school to mobilize the graduating students before the exam.
The reason why Yi Jingchen was invited was not only because he was a student in the Rocket Class of A University Affiliated Middle School, but also because he was one of the few true academic geniuses who could skip grades by staying in the Rocket Class.
You know, more than half of the students in the Rocket Class have the ability to be admitted to University A.
The learning atmosphere is intense rather than rich. Everyone is afraid of being outdone and disappointing their teachers and parents.
Yi Jingchen was different. He had no parental supervision and did not experience any pressure during the entire exam-oriented education period.
According to the observations of the head teacher and substitute teacher, he simply likes to study and wants to learn from the bottom of his heart.
Therefore, the school invited Yi Jingchen to give a mobilization speech for the college entrance examination even though they knew that he was an idol and would be considered as "affecting children's studies" by ordinary schools.
"Do you really want me to mobilize? Can I do it?" Yi Jingchen followed the teacher, mumbling all the way, "I have never even been a class leader, let alone speaking on the rostrum."
The teacher in charge of reception didn't know Yi Jingchen and asked curiously, "Aren't your grades good? Why haven't you been a class leader?"
Yi Jingchen said with some distress, "I often ask for leave from morning reading and evening self-study to do my own things, and the teacher thinks I can't serve as a role model."
"Well, your teacher is right."
At present, the school no longer considers students based on a single 'grade'.
No matter how good Yi Jingchen's grades are, he is often late and leaves early without reason, so he cannot be set as a role model.
"So, can I really be the mobilization officer?"
"The school specially invited you, of course, because they recognize your ability." The teacher explained with a smile, "In fact, at this stage, the main purpose of mobilizing for the college entrance examination is not only to improve their grades, but also to help them regulate their emotions."
Often, the better a child's grades are, the more likely they are to reach a dead end.
There are many outstanding students in the school who have excellent grades, but because they have reached a bottleneck period, they are full of doubts about themselves.
If there are mistakes in the college entrance examination, they may easily do extreme things because they cannot accept it.
"I understand~" Yi Jingchen understood the task he needed to complete and proudly puffed out his chest, "I will work hard!"
The school attached great importance to this honorary graduate. It gathered all the senior students on the playground and even prepared an official camera for Yi Jingchen.
Several people were very excited when they heard Yi Jingchen.
Most of the students were forbidden to use entertainment devices during their senior year, so they had no reaction and thought he was just an ordinary senior.
They found Yi Jingchen standing in the center of the rostrum with an umbrella next to him. Everyone was muttering to themselves, wondering why this senior was making such a big fuss.
A University is full of talented people, and more outstanding alumni have also been here, but none of them held an umbrella.
——They don’t know that school is not just for appearance.
But we take into consideration that the stupid silver tabby relies on his face to make a living, and we can't tan him into a Siamese cat.
"Hello, fellow students. I am Yi Jingchen, who graduated four years earlier than you."
"I received the notice at the last minute and didn't prepare a speech, so I'll just speak whatever comes to my mind." Yi Jingchen did not act condescendingly. His tone was relaxed and casual, and he quickly got close to everyone.
"I really enjoy studying, not for the purpose of changing my fate or coping with exam-oriented education."
"Because learning itself can exercise my thinking ability, let me have an independent thinking system, and can also delay Alzheimer's disease."
"Of course, if there are people among you who are good enough, you can even eliminate Alzheimer's disease."
"Hahaha!"
The students below understood Yi Jingchen's joke and laughed so hard that they fell over.
"This senior is quite interesting. I like listening to him talk."
"Yes, unlike others who immediately say that we must study and that studying is the only way out."
"I think learning is a very broad concept. It is not just about sitting in a classroom and picking up a book. Learning also includes turning over, sitting, standing, and mastering a language."
