Chapter 150: Group Countdown 4.0
The only thing Xie Qingyu was worried about while sleeping in the audio-visual room was probably catching a cold, especially at this critical period. The day before, his emotions had fluctuated quite a bit due to various "accidents", and everyone was in the same room. As long as one of them caught a cold, no one would be able to escape in the end.
Fortunately, when he woke up and opened his eyes the next morning, he only felt a little short of breath due to being strangled, but everything else was fine (bushi).
He also discovered the two 'culprits' who made him breathless!
At this moment, he was surrounded like a human pillow, Wei Liangchen's arms were across his chest, and Leo was almost hanging on him.
With the faint light coming through the gap in the curtains, Xie Qingyu groped and grabbed a wrist that was resting on his shoulder.
He turned on the dial, and the fluorescent number 5:46 was particularly eye-catching in the dim light.
Looking up, the owner of the dial...Gu Qi was sleeping defenselessly, appearing somewhat rare and well-behaved, which was quite different from his usual shrewd appearance.
Xie Qingyu took a deep breath and suddenly rolled over to break free.
Leo, who had lost his 'pillow', hummed twice in dissatisfaction. He calmly put Wei Liangchen's arm into his arms.
Seeing the two people hugging each other subconsciously in their sleep, he stood up quietly.
Looking around, the scene in front of him made Xie Qingyu silent for a long time.
—Ten or twenty people were packed like sardines on one side of the room, while the carpet on the other side was practically deserted.
Xie Qingyu rubbed his numbed shoulders and sighed silently: What kind of weird habit do these people have of sleeping in a group?
You should have told me earlier that you didn’t want to sleep in the spacious place. It’s so nice for him to sleep here alone!
When Xie Qingyu had almost recovered on the other side, the six o'clock broadcast sounded on time, and the familiar music instantly broke the silence of the audio-visual room.
The pile of "human cans" opposite also whimpered and some people woke up one after another. You pulled my hands and I kicked your feet. It was very lively.
"Oh my god! Whose hand is pressing my hair——"
"Stop pulling my pants! Where are my pants?!"
"Who kicked me in the back?! Who!!!"
Amidst the chaotic scene, Xie Qingyu sat alone on the other side of the empty space, kneeling leisurely, holding his chin with one hand and watching with great interest.
Leo, with his curly hair flying off his head, tried to stand up in a daze, but was tripped by Wei Liangchen's leg and hit Gu Yan's abdomen directly.
Gu Qi was suddenly awakened and was confused. What does this mean?
Such a big guy came crashing down with a "bang", and his hard head hit his stomach. Who saw the whole thing?
Peanuts for him!!!
Liu Xiu was the worst off. He was somehow squeezed to the bottom and was now struggling to crawl out of the crowd with a grim expression on his face.
Ding Zai was clever enough to roll out during the chaos, but he bumped head-on into Wei Ran who had just broken out of the siege. They both rolled out together.
I can only say that fortunately the production team thought of everything, the carpet was thick and anti-collision strips were affixed all around, otherwise... hehehe~
Xie Qingyu couldn't help but chuckle. The scene was so beautiful that she couldn't bear to look at it!
Because today's training task was not easy, everyone went back to the dormitory to quickly wash, pack up, change into training clothes, go to the cafeteria to eat something casually, and then return to their respective training rooms to arrange today's schedule.
The two songs for the group's formation night have been prepared, and the next focus will be on individual songs and debut songs.
Everyone's progress in this regard is different, so even though we are all in the same training room, we basically train on our own.
If you feel disturbed, you can also apply for a small room with the staff alone. The training building is very empty now, so it is relatively easy to apply for this.
Outside the glass curtain wall of the training building, the morning light gradually became brighter.
Xie Qingyu sat in the corner of the training room, tapping the metronome lightly with his fingertips to adjust his breathing frequency.
After careful consideration, he finally chose "Monsoon" as his personal presentation piece.
This decision carries a certain sense of fateful reincarnation, just like the monsoon itself, which will eventually return to the place where it started.
In the small audition room during the audition, this song was only caught a glimpse by a few people.
And now, he is going to present it in its entirety on the stage where thousands of people are watching.
The sound of Gu Qiong practicing high notes came from a small room next door, and a staff member passed by in the corridor pushing a prop cart.
Xie Qingyu suddenly looked forward to the stage on the night of the group formation.
It's not just about looking forward to the result, but more about satisfying the inexplicable sense of ritual that always comes to me - to use the first song to put a perfect end to this journey.
When a person establishes a clear goal and direction, time passes very quickly.
In order to present the most perfect stage on the night of the group formation, all contestants are repeatedly polishing their dance moves and refining their singing details to continuously improve their stage performance.
This is not a simple matter of "just knowing it is enough". A truly excellent stage performance must be the result of countless hard work and efforts off the stage.
The lead singers meticulously adjusted their breath control. After all, stability is paramount on the live stage. Once the breath becomes erratic, even the most sophisticated skills will be greatly reduced.
The main dancers continue to strengthen their movements and body coordination.
Although Xie Qingyu chose her own original song "Monsoon", she was no more relaxed than other contestants who prepared new performance songs. Instead, she was even busier.
As the night of the group's formation approaches, advertisers are scrambling more and more for his time slots. No one is stupid and they all know the difference in value before and after their debut on a talent show.
Given Xie Qingyu's current popularity and online fame, these investments are just a drop in the bucket for the brand.
The program crew couldn't resist the temptation of money, so he had to travel around to various filming sites. Moreover, Xie Qingyu didn't want to copy the songs onto the stage, as that would seem insincere.
Therefore, while shooting the commercial, we also have to make innovative adaptations to the music in our spare time.
According to his idea, the workload of adjusting these details is no less than learning a completely new piece of music.
Fortunately, by the end of the show, there were so many advertising invitations that Xie Qingyu could not handle them all by herself.
In addition to the brands he has collaborated with many times and currently has in-depth contact with, the program team began to arrange for other popular contestants to participate in the shooting of commercials.
He himself has no objection to this, but his fans... ahem, have a lot of opinions!!!
During this sensitive period before the group's formation night, fans from all groups were on edge.
Any disturbance could cause controversy, let alone one involving core issues such as resource allocation.
Xie Qingyu's fans have a very clear attitude: since it is advertised as an S-level resource, why should it be distributed equally?
Every star value is voted with real money. The program crew is so shameless, they want to take money from everyone!
Aren’t you afraid of eating yourself to death? ! ! !
Their core demands are simple and direct: We feel sorry for the hard work of our babies, but even if our family cannot digest the resources, we will never allow others to get their hands on them.
And those new fans of other groups who had never experienced the fighting power of Xie Qingyu's fans, under the instigation of the young host, began to make indirect accusations and use sarcastic language on the Internet.
Things like "a certain company is too overbearing and has an ugly eating habit", "it's occupying the toilet but not doing anything", "why not take over all the resources in the circle", although no names are mentioned, anyone with a discerning eye can tell who is being targeted.
So by the time the big fans of each group reacted, many of these new fans who were causing trouble had already been scolded by Xie Qingyu's "violent sisters" and had deleted their accounts and run away, while the rest came back crying and asking for help.
The most outrageous thing is that Xie's fans didn't even use the "human wave tactics". It was purely a 1V1 duel, and they were able to push the opponent to the point of mental collapse and defense breakdown on the spot.
When the big fans of each group found out, they were so angry that they laughed. The one who started the fight was the one who was despicable. Not only was he caught red-handed, but the other party didn't even bother to resort to "gang fighting" and just relied on "reasoning" to scold the other person to the point of autism.
It’s absolutely amazing!!!
How can we really see justice in this situation? Even the laning phase was so humiliating, I don't even have the guts to argue with them!
All the fans now just want to ask one question: So all the ones who are good at talking went to Xie Qingyu's house, right?
Do our fans deserve to be dumb, slow to think, and sensitive?
Xie Qingyu seems to be a gentle and easy-going person, but how come all his fans are like this? It's outrageous!
However, when it comes to core interests such as competition for resources, fans of each group feel confident even if they are not right.
What's the point of having a face? What you eat is the real skill.
Thus, this fuse completely ignited the Internet war.
For a time, the forums, hot searches, and real-time squares were filled with swordplay, and the onlookers were watching with great excitement.
Xie Qingyu's fans were initially a bit arrogant, thinking "I don't want to bother with you guys", but eventually one by one they started teasing Xie Qingyu, and they couldn't stand it anymore!
I was instantly enraged. Since you want to fight, I will fight to the end!
What's wrong with being domineering? We never denied it!
Besides, which of these resources is not acquired with real money?
To put it bluntly, their family spent a huge amount of money to "buy" them from the program crew.
You say you want to be more generous, but why don’t you just share your bank card payment password publicly on the Internet?
It’s my own stuff, you can give it to me or not, I just don’t want to share it, I’m not willing to accept it!
This melee directly topped the annual hot search list of Big Eyes, and was arguably the most popular this year, and the popularity of the "Road to Star Dreams" finals was also pushed to its peak.
Tickets for a 10,000-person show were sold at exorbitant prices by scalpers, leaving passersby stunned.
The war between fans continued until the night of the group formation, and the final result...well, of course each group claimed to have won.
But the battle situation in the hot search square is clearly laid out, and the public has sharp eyes and can see who is being pressed to the ground.
However, despite the commotion, in the end, everyone spontaneously went to the official Weibo account where the program team had just released the live broadcast reservation link.
After all, everyone knows who the instigator of this war is. This idiot is always making trouble. If we don’t teach him a lesson, he will just kick his fans like balls next time!
After this battle, fans of each team have a clear understanding of each other's current combat strength.
But no matter new fans or old fans, they all reached an unspoken consensus: Don't mess with Xie Qingyu's "irritable sisters"
— They curse without using any dirty words, yet every word cuts through your heart. You can't even find a reason to report them, because they're being polite the whole time, and yet you're just being made to question your life! Who can handle that?
(Xie's grumpy sister: [rolls eyes] Let me see whose skin is itching again?)
