Chapter 177: Just for Fun
After the last episode of "Produce 101" was aired, it received mixed reviews.
Although it has ended, its popularity still lasted for a long time.
The reason why the audience praised this last episode was, of course, the song "SuperStar" performed by Gu Qingge and her Queen band. Their performance was so contagious.
Then Gu Qingge’s thoughts after the performance were indeed very empathetic.
The sentence "No matter when you start, the important thing is not to stop after you start. No matter when you end, the important thing is not to regret after it ends" was added to "Gu Qingge's Quotations" by fans.
After the show was broadcast, the song "SuperStar" became an instant hit and became very popular!
It is no exaggeration to say that there is almost no public place where "SuperStar" is not played, and it is almost known to everyone in the streets and alleys!
This song really has the feel of a brainwashing hit. After it was released on "Yin Yue Cloud", the number of paid downloads exceeded one million in almost a short period of time!
The most popular comment in its comment area is also quite true——
"Queen is arguably the most impressive girl group in China. They don't need to sing or dance like traditional girl groups. They only need to play and sing, and they can become one with the stage, swaying to the rhythm. They sing well and look beautiful. I hope they can go beyond China and truly redefine Chinese girl groups, suppress South Korean and Japanese girl groups, and finally conquer the world!"
All in all, Gu Qingge and her Queen band are the biggest highlights of this final episode. Without them, the quality of this final episode would be truly terrible.
Therefore, apart from the praise for Gu Qingge and Queen, many viewers' criticism and complaints were merciless and extremely sharp.
"In a four-hour show, only half an hour was interesting at best. It's too watery!"
"There are too many advertisements. Not only are sponsors advertising like crazy, but even directors and actors are promoting the movie to capitalize on its popularity..."
"Isn't the director the funniest thing? He didn't even understand the significance of the ranking he announced. He even asked the host why he announced 11th place. I'm speechless."
"The Tencent's greed is too shameful. It took four hours, and what did they watch? I only remember Gu Qingge's song "SuperStar". Gu Qingge is indeed the eternal god!"
"The final debut song was rubbish. It was called something like 'Rocket Girls'. It was so awful it was burnt on the outside and tender on the inside. Isn't this the ending theme song for a Chinese cartoon on a children's channel? Or the kind for people under five!"
"The debut song is indeed far inferior to the theme song of the same name from Produce 101. Can the production team at least have some conscience and ask our mentor Gu to write it?"
"We really should invite the talented Ms. Gu. The dance music she writes is both beautiful and a hit!"
"The final stage performance by the 11 Rocket Girls was absolutely idiotic. From the arrangement to the choreography, it was all kindergarten-level. I was completely embarrassed. Are they supposed to redefine Chinese girl groups with this?"
"Haha, let me put it this way, if I sprinkled a handful of rice on the stage, the chickens would dance better than Yang Jingli, and after eating the rice, the chickens would crow better than Yang Jingli's singing! I never expected Yang Jingli to debut in second place."
"The worse Rocket Girls' performance, the more it highlights how invaluable Gu Qingge and her band Queen are!"
…
Judging from the subsequent public reaction to "Produce 101", the biggest winner of this ten-episode talent show turned out to be Gu Qingge, the youngest singing-songwriter mentor in history. This was something many people did not expect.
After all, in general talent shows, the ones who gain the most fame and traffic are probably the contestants themselves, and the mentors can only be familiar to the audience at best.
But who makes Gu Qingge have such a strong presence in this variety show?
Obviously, she never tries to steal the spotlight, but every time the camera is focused on her, what she says and the charm and temperament she displays are extremely unforgettable to the audience.
The constant disagreements between her dance instructor Zheng Ronggen were quite amusing, with "I don't think it's good enough" and "I think it's OK" being very effective in the show.
And the most crucial point is that several of Gu Qingge's works were directly presented to the audience through the "Creation 101" platform.
For example, the two songs "Chasing Dreams" and "SuperStar" performed by Queen band were both extremely impressive with their stage performances.
In addition, there is the theme song of the same name of "Creation 101" and the magical song "Little Apple", both of which were composed by Gu Qingge. As singing and dancing music, they are also loved by many people.
As I said, for a singer, the most important thing is always his works. The more works you have, the less worried you will be forgotten.
Gu Qingge has attracted countless fans through the talent and personal charm she displayed on the "Produce 101" platform.
Many fans of the show said that they came to watch the talent show seriously at the beginning, but since some time, they have turned to watching the singing and songwriting mentor Gu Qingge seriously.
Unfortunately, there are still too few shots of Gu Qingge in the entire ten episodes of the show, and it feels like I can never see enough of them.
So they hope that Gu Qingge can appear on more variety shows, even if not as a permanent guest.
It’s a pity that Gu Qingge chose to be a mentor on “Produce 101” because of that side challenge mission.
And for now, there are no side quests related to variety shows, so Gu Qingge naturally has no intention of continuing to participate in variety shows.
There aren't many variety shows in this world, and many of them are indoor variety shows, which makes Gu Qingge feel rather boring.
When her studio or cultural media company becomes bigger in the future, she will personally produce some popular variety shows.
For example, the original world's "Sisters Who Make Waves" is quite refreshing. It directly allows female celebrities over 30 to form girl groups and sing and dance. The audience watches these sisters fighting, competing, singing and dancing, and forming groups on the show, which is much more interesting than the auditions for new female trainees.
In addition, there are also some outdoor, travel, and roadshow variety shows that can be produced. She can participate in her own variety show, make money while going out to play, which is simply double the happiness.
Now that Gu Qingge has finally finished her mentor work on "Creation 101", she has no schedule at all before the New Year.
Gu Qingge decided to relax and enjoy the first Spring Festival after coming to this world.
"Oh, I forgot to claim the reward for the side quest. I'll claim it now and clear this quest. Damn system, I've worked so hard to participate in this 'Produce 101' variety show for so long, and you don't give me some crappy expert skills!"
Gu Qingge did not forget her traditional skills this time, and then she clicked to receive the task reward.
Ship it to me!
"Congratulations to the player for obtaining a permanent blue expert-level voice actor skill card!"
Voice actor skills?
Does this mean I can voice any anime or game character I want?
I always feel that it is very two-dimensional. I can try to be a Vtuber...
Speaking of the cover account [Nian Nujiao], it is actually quite suitable to be a virtual lolita up master.
Gu Qingge suddenly remembered that her childhood sweetheart, Lin Yun, seemed to be an old 2D fan. She liked to draw fan fiction, went to college, and even joined the anime club. She wanted to make a galgame and sell it on the Japanese icMarket...
Of course, games require dubbing. Gu Qingge can use the identity of [Nian Nujiao] to dub anime and game characters for fun.
