"Brother Yang, someone just called me and said that our first batch of peripheral T-shirts has been delivered. I saw some people posting pictures on Weibo." Hu Die came to Zhou Yiyang's house early in the morning and brought him breakfast made by her sister.
"Well, I'll pick a few people to post on the official Weibo later. It would be even better if everyone going to the performance today wore this outfit." Zhou Yiyang slowly ate his salty tofu pudding and said, "You're going to wear this outfit today?"
Hu Die was wearing the same T-shirt with the "White Moonlight" girl group characters printed on it today. Actually, Zhou Yiyang thought it was a bit ugly. But it takes time to design something nice, so it's hard to get it ready before the performance.
"Yeah, just like everyone else! By the way, Brother Yang, you have to wear it too. As the boss, you have to set an example!" Hu Die took out an unopened package from her bag and said, "I was worried that Brother Yang wouldn't buy it yourself, so I ordered one for you on the official website using my second account."
"Okay." Zhou Yiyang had no choice but to put aside his "idol burden" and decided to change into this simple outfit.
In the afternoon, the two of them went out wearing this outfit. Standing in the elevator, Zhou Yiyang couldn't help but complain: "We look like those street vendors."
"It looks more like the real thing with a hat on, haha!" Hu Die laughed.
This time, the performance venue of 101 was directly chosen to be a stadium in the urban area of Shanghai, which can accommodate 10,000 spectators.
On the subway, there are advertisements for the endorsements of the 101 trainees everywhere.
However, these advertisements basically only have a promotion time of about one month, and the profits also belong to the program team. Zhou Yiyang usually doesn't pay attention to them.
Many people on the subway looked over curiously after seeing Zhou Yiyang and Hu Die's clothes:
"Where did you buy these clothes?"
"What a unique personality!" Zhou Yiyang was confused when he heard it.
"Hey, aren't you the boss of Bai Yueguang?" Someone recognized Zhou Yiyang.
"Ahem, hello everyone." Zhou Yiyang, who was recognized, was not shy and greeted everyone who gathered around to watch the fun. "You can buy my clothes on our Yiyang Entertainment official website. If you don't know the website, you can follow our official blog, Bai Yueguang Girls Group!"
Some older people were curious and kept asking what Bai Yueguang was. However, most of the young people on the subway knew about the girl group, and some even pointed to the posters on the subway to explain.
From this perspective, 101 is really a big hit.
After getting off the subway, when Zhou Yiyang and Hu Die arrived at the stadium entrance, they were still shocked by the crowded crowd.
Compared to the last performance, there were more people this time, and there were even quite a few scalpers reselling tickets at high prices.
However, compared to the first performance where there was a 50-50 split between passers-by and fans, this time, almost everyone was carrying cheering sticks and holding posters of the trainees they picked.
"Basically, they are all fans!" Hu Die sighed.
"That's normal. I heard the tickets sold out in 30 minutes. I guess passersby wouldn't be as excited. But for tonight's stage voting, I'm afraid many people won't watch the performance and will just vote based on personal preference."
As he was speaking, someone was already walking towards Zhou Yiyang.
"Do you need Chu Tianjiao's support?" After the man approached and saw Zhou Yiyang and Hu Die's clothes, he shut up and turned away.
Hu Die glanced down at her phone, then looked up and said, "Brother Yang, we've announced in our fan group that all of Bai Yueguang's fans should sit together today so they don't disturb others when cheering. Do you want us to sit over there?"
"Sure." Zhou Yiyang agreed immediately: "Where are they? Let's go over there."
After finding the base camp, Zhou Yiyang first roughly calculated the male-to-female ratio. There were a lot more female fans than before, which finally made things more balanced.
These people were very excited when they saw Zhou Yiyang, but it was only after a few old fans told them that Zhou Yiyang was approachable that everyone relaxed.
However, they still arranged Zhou Yiyang in the middle position.
"Thank you everyone, I can sit in the C position too." Zhou Yiyang joked.
After sitting down, questions came one after another.
"Mr. Zhou, I heard there will be another original song you wrote tonight. Is that true?"
"Mr. Zhou, when will our group hold a concert after the competition?"
"Brother Yang, we don't have music shows in our country. Will the four of them go to film a drama? If so, will it be a web drama or a TV series?"
Zhou Yiyang kept answering fans' enthusiastic questions, while the trainees backstage were seizing the last bit of time to practice.
When Lin Xuan'er saw Tang Yue, there was a hint of gunpowder in her eyes.
"How's your rehearsal going?"
"Very good." Tang Yue smiled. "Xuan'er, I heard that your cooperation isn't harmonious enough. Is that true?"
"Of course not," Wang Xingrui walked over. "Tangtang, it's too late for you to sow discord now. By the way, this song is quite a vocal test. Did you and Xiao Xiaosu sing well?"
"You can get a ticket just by standing there without me saying anything!" Su Yin smiled and hung on Tang Yue.
After the four of them finished speaking, they burst into laughter at the same time. They were best sisters, but they all wanted to win this time.
Today's host is still the ace host of Shanghai Satellite TV. As soon as he appeared on the stage, the audience immediately burst into thunderous applause.
"I didn't expect I'd be so popular! But I know you all came here for our trainees." The host smiled. "Four brand new songs will be premiering on this stage tonight. Are you looking forward to it?"
"expect!"
The audience responded.
Wang Xueru, a university student, didn't usually watch talent shows. But after Black Whale Music recommended "Support," she went to watch the original live performance. She quickly became hooked on 101, and her favorite trainee is Lin Xuaner.
She envied the 36 trainees who could shine on such a stage. But a girl like her, plain-looking, average in grades, and with a poor figure, could only live a mediocre life, like dust, never noticed.
However, Wang Xueru has a good attitude. Since there are stars in this world, there must be audiences cheering for them.
"Come on, Lin Xuan'er!"
After the performance began, Zhou Yiyang finally didn't have to answer questions. He straightened up and listened to the host explain the voting rules for today:
"After the two groups of trainees have finished their performances of the same song, everyone needs to take out their voting devices and choose the group you think is better, and also choose the trainee with the best performance within that group.
Finally, after eight groups have performed, the group with the most votes will receive a bonus of 100,000 votes in the next elimination round. The most popular trainee will receive a one-minute solo stage to conclude the performance.
