Chapter 199 "TOP IDOL" in progress 6.0
The meal sharing session finally ended, and all the idols, including Xie Qingyu, breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.
The fans' aggressive behavior is simply overwhelming, as if refusing would be a heinous crime.
Finally I can sit down and have a meal.
When the meals were distributed to the fans just now, many people were drooling with greed.
After all, when they pushed the food cart past, they had already "accidentally" caught a glimpse of their lunch: oil-free vegetable salad with buckwheat noodles.
You don’t have to worry about running out of energy, because... there’s plenty of chicken breast!
"Why can't I escape salad and chicken breasts wherever I go? Even if they're just stir-fried in oil?"
You Jinzhao was originally starving, but when he opened the lunch box and saw the gray buckwheat noodles, green vegetable leaves, a few scattered corn kernels and diced tomatoes, his appetite immediately disappeared.
God knows he was so greedy that he almost couldn't control himself when he stared at the shiny braised pork in the vermicelli lunch box just now.
Wei Liangchen rarely refrained from retorting: "Indeed, it feels like we're on a vegetarian diet. This stuff is considered vegetarian even if eaten by cows and sheep."
He seriously suspected that the platform's old fault had come back. Light meals can be divided into those that are thoughtful and those that are not. The box in front of him obviously belongs to the latter. It feels like a perfunctory work that just rinses the ingredients and packs them in a box.
"Just eat it, there are so many cameras staring at you."
Gu Qi actually had no appetite, but they were still in the rest area on the sidelines.
Although the microphone was turned off during the lunch break and the cameraman went to eat, the live camera was still running.
The fans in the stands didn't even have time to eat, and were holding up their devices to take pictures of them eating.
No matter what, we have to give some face to our own platform and at least make a few symbolic moves.
"or……"
Xie Qingyu looked at the members' gloomy expressions, his fingertips lightly resting on the zipper of the backpack, wanting to say something but stopping himself.
He is not picky about food, but seeing his teammates unable to swallow their food, should he use his secret weapon?
Bai Lang guessed his intention as soon as he heard him speak, and lowered his voice to remind him, "It's too early to take it out now."
The meal had just begun, but fans and cameras were staring at the rest areas of each group, which was a bit too blatant.
"Brother~" Leo looked at Xie Qingyu eagerly.
The other members also understood what he meant. Ding Zai tentatively said, "How about... we block it?"
"I think it's okay!"
You Jinzhao and Wei Liangchen, the two childhood friends, nodded seriously in unison.
Although Gu Qiong didn't express his opinion, his attitude of slightly stepping aside to make room for the seat said it all - whoever sees it gets a share~
Xie Qingyu sighed softly and carefully opened his backpack.
The members immediately formed an impenetrable human wall, blocking the camera's view completely.
[This is hilarious! I don’t know idols dislike healthy meals either! I thought they were used to it by now~]
[Light meals are already unpalatable. After sending a feast to fans, I come back to eat vegetable leaves. Anyone would be driven to depression!]
[This product looks really bad. It looks like a colorful... indescribable thing in the camera.]
[The noodles are all clumped together! Seeing several poor kids trying to chew on the noodles is so pitiful.]
[Rotten Grape TV is really stingy. They have a game this afternoon and they’re just giving us this?]
[Huh? What are those guys in the God Group doing in a circle?]
[Phuket Island was so heavily blocked that even the live cameras closest to them couldn’t capture them.]
[Director, please cut quickly! You didn't even catch the buzz, stupid!]
[Bur, is there something mysterious about this action? Why did the other groups of Douer also form a circle after taking a look at them?!]
[Are you shy? Will it taste better if we eat together like this?]
[No… there are exceptions. Hahahaha, the bewildered expressions on the faces of the veterans at Eclipse are making me die of laughter!]
[It's okay. Wei Qianze has been sent out by the organization to gather information. Everyone will know the reason soon~]
On the sidelines, Wei Qianze was pretending to casually stroll towards MYST7, but he didn't know that his sneaky figure had already been discovered by the sharp-eyed audience, and the barrage of comments suddenly filled the screen with joy again.
"What are you doing~" A teasing voice suddenly came from the gap in the crowd.
Wei Qianze's restless head squeezed in between Xie Qingyu and Leo.
They hadn't intended to be on guard against this mentor, but ended up being caught red-handed.
Xie Qingyu quickly covered Wei Qianze's mouth as he was about to scream, and said in a low voice, "Teacher Wei, everyone who saw it has a share, so don't make a sound."
Anyway, the meat sauce is too salty and they can't finish it in one go.
Wei Qianze looked closely at Xie Qingyu's face and blinked to indicate that the deal was done.
After regaining his freedom, he lowered his voice and asked excitedly, "Where did you get this? You actually thought of bringing this?"
The other members were eating noodles with meat sauce in silence, and obviously no one had a free mouth to answer Teacher Wei's questions.
Xie Qingyu had almost finished eating and automatically took over the responsibility of entertaining. He picked up a tissue and wiped the corner of his mouth, saying helplessly: "You are the one who recorded "Star Dream Road" with us~"
There were some things he was not comfortable saying directly, but now that it was so obvious, Wei Qianze should... probably understand it.
Wei Qianze really understood, it could even be said that he was enlightened, and then fell into deep self-doubt.
After all, he is a veteran in variety shows, but he can still be so honest. It's really rare.
When Teacher Wei finally left, he had a bottle of meat sauce in his arms that the students had "gifted" him as a gift, on the condition that they would not reveal a single word.
As soon as he left, Leo quickly filled the gap.
"Teacher Wei doesn't seem very reliable..."
You Jinzhao swallowed a mouthful of noodles with meat sauce, and muttered as he looked at Wei Qianze's back as he leisurely went to "inspect" other groups.
Xie Qingyu didn't even need to turn around to look. He sighed softly and said, "Hurry up and eat. This isn't the first day Teacher Wei has been like this."
Wasn't it clear to everyone during the draft that Wei Qianze was unreliable?
When Wei Qianze returned from his 'inspection', Ange immediately noticed the bulging hem of his sportswear.
The old captain rubbed his temples, and without saying a word, he led the other three to surround him and began to "unload" in a hurry.
As expected, after this looting, the various groups' small actions could no longer be hidden.
[! ! !]
[Master Wei, I can only say you are worthy of being called such!]
[Hahaha, leaving empty-handed and returning with bags full, it's hard not to know what tricks you guys are playing~]
[How much should I take back? Young Master is so greedy~]
Who would have thought that among so many groups, Big E Group would be the most innocent and honest one?
[Although…but, I saw the helpless and tender little face of the green jade baby, it was so cute ah ah ah wsl]
What kind of magical bibimbap sauce is this? I want the same one!
[They are hiding it and eating it, it is definitely not an endorsement product]
[Isn't Xie Qingyu a good kid? He openly led his teammates to do something illegal. Haha, his true nature is exposed?]
[Why is it this person again? I have to say, you really love Xie CC deeply and pay attention to her all the time.]
[Okay, let's be frank. Xie Qingyu just really likes me. Are you satisfied? ? ?]
[That’s not impossible for me… hehehe]
[Add me~~~]
After lunch, Xie Qingyu carefully put away the remaining meat sauce.
The members dispersed as if nothing had happened and placed the empty lunch boxes in the designated area.
When they met other artists who were also holding empty lunch boxes, they both tacitly avoided the suspicious traces of red oil in each other's lunch boxes, quickly threw the "evidence" into the trash can, and then returned to the rest area as if nothing had happened, chatting and laughing.
The staff member who came to collect the lunch boxes stared at the grease stain at the bottom of the box with a confused look on his face: These vegetables were clearly boiled, and the chicken breast was steamed, so where did this bright red grease stain come from?!
The afternoon match was scheduled to start at 13:30. It was just past 12:30 and everyone was planning to take a short break when the big screen in the center of the venue suddenly turned pink, instantly attracting everyone's attention.
Xie Qingyu's eyes hurt from the pink love bombs that kept flashing on the screen.
After a long period of pink special effects, the true identity of this segment was finally revealed - "Star Moment".
This is exactly the random dance interaction mentioned in the opening ceremony. The most important thing is that it can add points!
When this is mentioned, the idols from various groups are no longer sleepy.
Most of the events on the first day today are qualifying matches, and few points can be earned.
Although the specific scoring rules of "Star Moments" are unclear, who wouldn't want the opportunity to earn points in advance?
No matter how small a mosquito leg is, it is still meat. Aren’t they eager to get the ultimate prize resources?
Of course, fans have to follow what their own Douer likes without hesitation.
Whether they were dozing off, browsing their phones, or staring at their idols from afar, they were all shouting their names with all their might, as if the random camera would really choose people based on the volume of their voices.
The cheers in the stadium were louder and louder, washing away all the tiredness in the afternoon.
"Brother, if they only draw three people per round, do you think our group will be picked?"
Leo stared at the big screen without blinking, as if he wanted to burn a hole in it with his eyes.
He really wanted to get this extra point opportunity for the team.
Xie Qingyu turned his head and looked to the side.
Wei Liangchen, Ding Zai and You Jinzhao were kneeling on cushions in a strange posture, with their hands clasped together and muttering to themselves, obviously performing some mysterious ritual.
"There should be...
It’s already like this, it would be unreasonable not to give their group a spot.
As the audience watched with bated breath, the images on the screen began to switch rapidly.
Suddenly, the picture froze on an oval face that still looked a little confused.
A trace of regret flashed through Xie Qingyu's mind because the first person drawn was not a member of their group.
But it’s also a good thing, as it allows me to observe the specific gameplay of this part, and I can make timely adjustments later to raise the score.
[Wow! The first one is Lin Xiaoyu from SGS! There's something mysterious about this girl's luck~]
[Who? Never heard of him.]
[How did they get SGS? Any other group would be more interesting than them.]
[Head to head, the strength of this group is quite confusing]
[Can't we just lump everyone together? The girls all worked really hard, and they didn't lag behind during the live theme song performance.]
[Wait! Isn't this the female idol who was so broke she couldn't afford to eat but won a million dollars in the lottery?!]
[Is this true? It's not just hype, is it?]
[How could it be fake if it's already on social news? Don't you guys even watch the news?]
[When did you win? Where did you buy it? Why can’t I win?]
[I'm crying. I haven't even made back the money I spent on the lottery.]
[Thank you, Fairy Lin, for not verbally abusing you just now. Let me get one too.]
[I am the most pious! Let me win first!]
[……]
[Good guys, do you have to change your expressions so quickly?]
After the camera locked on, Xie Qingyu's gaze followed the attention of the entire audience and fell on the young female idol who was surrounded by her teammates and had a look of surprise on her face.
She stood up bewilderedly, her cheeks flushed at the sudden attention.
But this is not the end yet. As the random dance keyword [boy group] popped up on the big screen, the one-minute countdown started immediately.
There was suddenly a commotion at the entrance of the passage. Several staff members wearing masks pushed mobile hangers full of clothes and rushed towards the SGS rest area, making a lot of noise like setting off firecrackers.
Obviously, she had to change clothes quickly to match the random dance keywords within a few seconds with the help of her teammates.
Xie Qingyu looked at the chaotic scene over there, lost in thought.
It seems that the speed of changing clothes is also one of the scoring criteria. The program team is too cunning. They don’t say anything clearly. While giving the audience a sense of freshness and ensuring the effect of the program, they have to rely on themselves to guess everything.
"It's quite interesting~" Gu Qiong leaned his head on Xie Qingyu's shoulder. He was originally uninterested, but now his eyes were shining with interest.
Xie Qingyu did not expose his intention of watching the fun.
After all, he had already seen through it. No matter how Gu Yan behaved on the outside, he was still the kind of person who wanted to create chaos in the world.
The moment the countdown ended, the big screen cut to a close-up of Lin Xiaoyu.
As the prelude of the music sounded, Xie Qingyu immediately recognized it as Eclipse's hit song "Gentleman Puppet" - thanks to the industry knowledge he had crammed in during this period and the special reminder from his agent Shi Li.
Many people at the scene looked back and forth between the Eclipse lounge area and the stage.
Wei Qianze and his friends acted like seniors, waving generously at the screen and giving the camera entirely to their juniors.
Obviously they don't want to grab this shot, and they don't need to grab this shot.
Xie Qingyu couldn't help but smile, he was really arrogant~
Turning his gaze back to the big screen, he couldn't help but sigh once again at the girl's luck. With only a vague hint, she actually put on a top hat at the last minute, which just happened to fit the iconic look of "Gentleman Puppet".
Although her dancing skills are a little lacking, her grasp of rhythm is not precise enough, and her on-the-spot reaction is a little awkward, but at least the general direction is correct, and it can be seen that she is not unfamiliar with this song.
The music suddenly stopped and the random dance session ended.
The audience's eyes are still fixed on the big screen, waiting for the scoring results to be announced. This will be the first time that everyone can clearly see the rules for point conversion.
[Huh? Didn't they say online viewers could rate the videos? Why can't I participate?]
[You have to watch the live broadcast for a full hour to be eligible to rate, probably to prevent cheating]
[Overall, I feel that it is tasteless and a pity to throw it away. I give it a score of 7. Meibao still has a lot of room for improvement.]
[Fair! Objective! To the point!]
[SGS's level is really just like this. It would be great if another female idol could dance to this song.]
[This kind of random dance can easily go viral if performed well, but this person clearly didn't seize the opportunity]
[Let’s take a look at it, and then take a look at the others.]
After the online time-limited scoring is completed, the big screen begins to display the AI scoring criteria item by item.
As Xie Qingyu expected, clothing matching played an important role.
The AI finally gave a score of 7.8, and the online audience scored 7.0. After taking the average of the two, Lin Xiaoyu's total score was 7.4 points - equivalent to 7.4 points!
A bright light flashed in Xie Qingyu's eyes.
This score conversion is quite cost-effective, meaning that a maximum of 10 points can be obtained, which is equivalent to the championship points for an individual event.
He wasn't the only one who noticed this.
There was a noticeable commotion in the rest areas of the various groups present, and the already high interest was now even higher.
The male idols started flexing their wrists, and the female idols took out a small mirror to fix their hairstyle and makeup. Everyone was eagerly waiting for the next lucky winner to be born.
As soon as the scoring session ended, the big screen began a new round of random switching.
Xie Qingyu's career brain was online, and the flame of desire to win was burning in his eyes. He pushed away Gu Qiong who was leaning on his shoulder, straightened his back and knelt down, staring at the screen with burning eyes. It should be his turn this time, right?
The moment the camera froze, a cute picture of Yu with slightly wide eyes suddenly appeared on the screen!
Xie Qingyu's heartbeat suddenly accelerated, the tips of his ears turned slightly red, and he almost couldn't help but cheer out loud.
As his teammates rushed forward and hugged him tightly, the key words for this round popped up on the big screen at the right time.
This time the prompt has more words, but Xie Qingyu would rather not have it because the prompt above is——【Sexy Girl Group】～
[Great! It's Xie Qingyu who's going to do a sexy girl group dance. We're saved~ Hehehe (already unconscious version)]
