Chapter 143 Subsequent Arrangements
After the new song was released, the company steadily released the filming materials in accordance with the previous plan.
From plot MVs and dance MVs to specially shot gesture dance videos, dance relay videos, and dance practice studios... the Fifth Quadrant group's account has been posting content every day for a week.
When the promotional materials were almost distributed, the recording footage was immediately released. At the same time, the sixth-generation junior brothers were not left out, and even the fourth generation was pulled out to shoot gesture dance.
From top to bottom, everyone is promoting this song.
This operation also played a promotional role, allowing the fifth group's new song "Unfinished Graduation" to climb to the 39th position on the chart.
A pretty good result.
Compared with the fourth generation, the collection count of most of the other group's songs only hovered around 300,000 to 400,000, while this song from the fifth group had already amassed 500,000 collections by the day it was removed from the charts.
Barely entering the stage of mild fever.
Although it is not very high, the fourth generation has been in the industry for many years, and there are only a handful of songs with more than 500,000 collections.
How long has it been since the fourth generation debuted, and how long has it been since the fifth generation debuted?
Of course, this result cannot be compared with the third generation's collection numbers of millions or even tens of millions, but the third generation is a top boy group, and the fifth generation has just started, so everyone is very satisfied with the results of the new song.
Except for the fourth generation of fans.
The success of their junior brothers made them feel an irresistible sense of crisis. After the fourth generation remade the gesture dance, they were so angry that they started a rights protection movement.
But these Ding Lings don’t care, and the coordinates care even less.
Half a month passed like this, filled with noise, boredom and excitement. The fans who had been counting the days finally waited until June, the day of the college entrance examination.
It was just a bit unfortunate that the day the college entrance examination began was the 100-day anniversary of the group's formation. Although it was a bit regrettable, the company could not call the two people who were taking the exam out of the examination room, so in the 100-day anniversary Weibo released in the evening, there was only a photo of Qiu Yuge, Zhu Xiangming, Yin Hongxue and Lu Yao.
Looking at this photo, although this year's college entrance examination has just begun, fans can't help but worry about next year's college entrance examination.
There are only two people taking the college entrance examination this year, but there will be three people taking it next year.
Qiu Yuge and the other two are currently in their second year of high school. After the summer vacation, they will be promoted to their third year.
Zhu Xiangming and Cang Zizhen will also celebrate their 18th birthdays in the second half of the year, while Qiu Yuge will have to wait until next year.
In other words, the current Fifth Regiment includes eighteen-year-old Bai You and Cang Zizhen, seventeen-year-old Zhu Xiangming, Yin Hongxue, Qiu Yuge, and fifteen-year-old (possibly) Lu Yao.
If you calculate this way, including this year, it will be three consecutive years that people will take the college entrance examination.
It's a ghost story.
But if you pursue a training system, you will suffer this disaster.
After suffering for a while, you will get used to it.
The two days of the final exam passed extremely quickly. One second I seemed to be scrolling through the Reuters photos of Bai You and Cang Zizhen entering the examination room, and the next second their exam reflections were already posted on Weibo.
After two months of seclusion and hard study, every word in Bai You's Weibo was filled with the word "pain". Cang Zizhen's Weibo was much colder. He analyzed a lot of things and finally said that no matter what the result was, he would not regret it.
Fans immediately rushed to leave their encouragement and support in the comments.
It is painful to be in seclusion and not see any news from your parents, but waiting for the results after the exam is even more anxious.
Although the exam has just ended, everyone has already started analyzing the emotions in the text on Weibo after the exam and the state of the two people leaving the exam room in the video taken by fans to judge whether the test results of the two were ideal.
But not much can be seen from the face behind the mask, and the text, which is like a diary, does not contain much information. So after much guessing, fans can only rely on the two people's previous test scores and art exam results to speculate on the final result.
Fans can only guess, but Ding Ling can ask directly.
But after seeing Bai You and Cang Zizhen, no one asked them how they did in the exam.
It’s better to worry about things like test scores until the results come out.
Ding Ling didn't dare to have too high expectations for the performance of Bai You and Cang Zizheng.
I don't seek extraordinary performance, I just want to be able to study.
Bai You and Cang Zizhen went straight to the company after coming out of the examination room. What was waiting for them was an impatient meeting with a full staff.
"Three things." Ding Ling held up her fingers. "First, I have to release my first EP this month."
No one was surprised by this.
If it weren't for the two-month hiatus, their EP would have been released long ago.
"The second thing." Ding Ling nodded to Li Qiang, who was distributing documents with Wei Gu. "We have a variety show to record next month."
As Ding Ling spoke, she turned on the computer, and a PPT of the variety show appeared on the connected projection screen.
The huge Green Ocean Film and Television logo on it is very clear.
"Exclusively produced by Green Ocean Films, this is a travel variety show where the members return to their hometowns, with the members acting as tour guides."
The production of the variety show was decided long ago, but the type of variety show and the format of the variety show were discussed for a long time and were not finalized until two weeks ago.
There are quite a few travel variety shows on the market now, some are warm and cozy, some are full of drama, but overall, except for the extremely boring ones, most travel variety shows have good ratings.
However, it may also be that travel variety shows require large investments, and any show with a poor broadcast effect will not have a second season, so the ones that remain are those with high broadcast volume and discussion.
So Ding Ling was very surprised that Lvyang Film and Television was going to make a travel variety show this time.
Compared with other safer options, Ding Ling feels that travel variety shows are not a good choice due to the complex shooting and huge investment.
Especially after watching the plan proposed by Du Tang - yes, the director of this variety show is still Du Tang, Ding Ling did not see much difference from other travel variety shows on the market.
The members will be given a fixed budget for the entire season, which will be distributed to them at the beginning of the show, and they will arrange their own expenses at each stop.
Each member acts as a tour guide for his or her hometown. Based on the itinerary provided by the program team, the members choose the projects and plan the itinerary on their own, and use the budget given at the beginning to pay for all expenses.
At each stop, different entertainment industry seniors will be invited to join the journey, and the guests' expenses during the trip will also be included in the budget.
After the two-day and one-night journey at each stop, the guests will rate the tour guide based on their experience during the journey.
The member with the highest score at the end will be awarded the title of best tour guide.
Judging from the plan alone, Ding Ling found it quite interesting.
But wouldn’t it be a bit too much of an investment to travel to the hometowns of all six members, plus have different guests at each stop?
She raised this concern with Du Tang. Although this variety show did not require funding from the company, it could be said to be the first public appearance of the Fifth Group after entering the entertainment industry. The effect of the show would also determine the subsequent resources of the Fifth Group, so Ding Ling preferred to play it safe.
In her current plan, the Fifth Regiment does not need to do too many risky things for the time being. After all, she has already done the most risky things herself.
As for the fifth group, there is no need to break out of the circle. As long as it develops step by step, there will be plenty of opportunities to break out of the circle later.
What we need to do now is to cherish our wings and maintain a good reputation to ensure that when we become popular in the future, we can withstand everyone's attention.
Moreover, Ding Ling could feel that Lvyang Film and Television was also hesitant about this variety show plan.
The results of the Fifth Era are good, but the internal auditions of the training system are naturally popular, and where is the potential of the group variety show after the group is formed that is worth such a huge investment?
It is a rare opportunity to have a hit variety show, and it would be a miracle if subsequent variety shows could reach the popularity of the fifth era.
The top management of Green Ocean Films has no expectations and would rather play it safe than take risks.
When both sides wanted to be safe, Du Tang went against the majority's objections and strongly demanded that this plan be passed.
After all, Du Tang has two hit variety shows, "Starry Night" and "The Fifth Age", in his hands. Faced with his insistence, Luyang Film and Television hesitated for a while, but finally agreed.
When she heard about this, Ding Ling almost suspected that she had misheard it. It didn't sound real at all.
Du Tang was so persistent and believed in the Fifth Regiment so much that Ding Ling couldn't help but doubt her understanding of the members.
Could it be that Du Tang had discovered something unique about the Fifth Regiment during their brief time together? Otherwise, why would he trust them so much?
Ding Ling didn’t understand, but the variety show plan was finally decided.
After Ding Ling briefly introduced the content of the program, she proposed what the members needed to do: "Because we are traveling to your respective hometowns, the program team would like to collect your ideas."
"Do you have any special projects or destinations to recommend? If so, you can organize them in the next few days and submit them to the program team."
After saying that, Ding Ling looked at Lu Yao.
The other person was currently looking through documents with her head down, her hair tucked behind her ears, falling down softly, revealing Lu Yao's delicate profile.
His face was calm, his brows slightly lowered, and he looked very focused.
Ding Ling withdrew her gaze.
In addition to the problems just mentioned, there is another problem with this program.
In the information Lu Yao filled out, he only said that he was from Yue Province, but he never mentioned the specific location of his hometown.
Considering Lu Yao's previous protection of his personal information, Ding Ling was not sure whether Lu Yao would agree to travel to his hometown this time.
These thoughts flashed through her mind quickly. Ding Ling did not ask any questions on the spot. She coughed lightly and motioned everyone to look at her again.
"There's a third thing." Ding Ling laughed: "We're going to shoot a commercial."
That’s right, advertising.
After two months of Ding Ling's persistence, an advertiser that met her requirements finally expressed her intention to cooperate.
Maybe the new song performed really well, or maybe Wu Hongyuan saw Ding Ling's persistence and finally used his strength as a business agent to get such an endorsement. In short, no matter what, an important part of measuring the group's ability - endorsement, is finally here.

[Draft] This is a really hard game to win
Cong An, a trainee who failed to form a group in the training system, started over a year later and decided to participate in the biannual boy group audition.
In the program two years ago, "Starry Night", which has been held for six seasons, became a hit with the famous scene of everyone making trouble, and in one fell swoop brought back the program's declining ratings.
This included, but was not limited to, passionate bran-making on the first stage, malicious assaults during theme song practice, open and covert competition among the one-centimeter teams, and gossip when the rankings were announced... The trainees were all clashing swords on the show, and outside of it, the trainees were all colluding to expose their true feelings...
The eighth season of the show is about to start recording this year, and even before the list of trainees is announced, fans are already gearing up for it.
Last season was so exciting, will this season be as brilliant as before?
The trainees are also ready to go, taking out the previous season's program to study frame by frame, determined to give a "brilliant" performance in the program.
They are not afraid to speculate on people's minds with the greatest malice. After so many years of talent shows, they know exactly what tricks are effective and how to get more shots.
Everyone has countless plans in mind, just to compete for the final debut spot.
But what's going on? Where are all the villains? How come one person is so sincere?
*
After years of training in the development department, although Cong'an is young, he knows a lot.
He made full use of everything he had learned and displayed it vividly in the show, moving step by step closer to the position of his dreams.
Gay sex? Argument? Intrigue?
No big deal, nothing more than that.
Cong An pursed her lips and smiled.
The dark eyes looking towards the camera express the courage and determination to burn the boats.

Sincerity is the ultimate weapon√
Hard work will bear sweet fruits√
If you are not my brother, why are you pretending in front of me?
Those who understand will understand√
