Chapter 43: Response to the Announcement of "Punishment"
Grape TV Star Dream Road official account V: [#Star Dream Road# To all dear viewers and fans:
First of all, I would like to express my sincere gratitude to everyone for your strong support for this program, which made it possible for the first performance and meeting of today's program to be held smoothly.
Recently, there has been widespread concern and discussion regarding the program's procedures and rules and regulations, which has caused trouble for everyone. The entire program production staff is deeply sorry for this.
After careful investigation and reflection, as well as communication with the controversial contestants Xie Qingyu and @星梦路－张辉, we now provide the following explanation:
1. After communicating with contestant Xie Qingyu, the contestant confirmed that despite being aware of the program's policy prohibiting the acceptance of any form of support during filming, she knowingly violated the policy. The contestant deeply apologizes for the widespread public discussion and the serious damage to the program's reputation caused by this incident. She also expressed her willingness to set an example and bear the penalty of a 5% deduction from her total votes for the first ranking release as a penalty for violating the program's policy.
2. After communicating with contestant @星梦旅途－张辉, the contestant himself strongly denied causing any substantial harm to fellow contestants during the meet-and-greet. The incident is still under ongoing in-depth investigation.
At the same time, in response to the opinions raised by viewers and fans, we have taken a series of practical and feasible rectification measures:
1. ………
2. ………
3. ………
If you have any questions or suggestions about this statement, please contact us through official channels. Thank you for your understanding and support.
When Lin Lulu saw the official statement issued by "Road to Star Dreams", she was so angry that she laughed. How could there be such a crappy program team?
I won’t say much about this after the fact, but basically all talent shows are like this.
But this statement is a bit interesting. It directly pulls Xie Qingyu out to speak, almost shouting at fans and passers-by.
"Your brother accepted this punishment himself. The program has suffered serious losses because of this incident. Your brother also admitted it. Please don't cause trouble for the production team again! !"
Another metaphorical meaning is that they are currently holding Xie Qingyu in their hands. If fans act rashly, they will currently give them a light punishment or a severe warning, but they can also hold on to this matter at any time.
He is really a dog, a thief and a mean person!
As for the subsequent rectification measures, just take a look at them casually. They are not for fans to see anyway.
Lin Lulu doesn't care about the 5% ratio. No matter how bad the production team is, it is impossible for them to eliminate Xie Qingyu. Compared with the fans Xie Qingyu has attracted this time, it is a small matter.
But Lin Lulu was very dissatisfied with the clumsy and stupid way that Zhang Hui handled the matter. What was this about continuing in-depth investigation? What a lie!
Fortunately, after reading the comments below, I found that everyone had seen through the purpose of the program team. Lin Lulu opened the super topic fan group and notified everyone in the group not to control the comments for the time being.
Now we just need to observe the attitudes of passers-by fans in the comment section in real time and give them enough space to discuss.
Don't let them be misled by the fans of other companies who are taking advantage of the situation. The effect may be better than fans controlling the comments.
The moment the program team released the statement, a large number of onlookers and passers-by fans poured in and paralyzed the comment section.
“????????????????”
“???”
"Excuse me, is this human language?"
"It doesn't think it handled the situation well. Why is it pretending to be waiting for praise?"
"How disgusting! Darling! Who is its darling? Are we watching you? Only a fool would watch this show without any contestants. Do you really think the initial stage went viral because of its own performance? The competition system is outdated, and the process arrangement is a mess. People should at least have some self-awareness!!!"
"Yeah yeah yeah, I'm a genius! I'm the genius!!"
"Do you really know what you've emitted? Xingmeng, you're such a dog!"
"Hahahahaha, Xie deserves to be sanctioned! It's all thanks to you fans~"
"@Star Dream Road - Bai Tang, come and take your mad dog away!!!"
"You're throwing mud at others, and you still dare to come out and make a scene with your fandom. You're as thick-skinned as a city wall!"
"So, Xie Qingyu's acceptance of flowers from fans is a violation of the show's rules, and she'll be deducted 5% of her total votes??? Such a niche term!!!"
"This world has finally become this insane! Destroy it!!!"
"After communicating with the players, Xie Qingyu admitted to violating the rules and accepted the punishment? Haha, I don't understand, but I'm shocked!!"
"The class representative is here~~ The summary is that Xie Qingyu admitted to accepting things from fans and was punished, the freeloaders refused to admit it, and the production team admitted that there were problems with the process and arrangement but refused to change it. Hahahahahaha awesome!"
"The production team is really staring at me! There are so many people watching, why don't they punish the freeloaders and keep them for the New Year?"
"Xie Qingyu is really tough! I suddenly want to pick him!"
"This was all captured on video. There's nothing Xie Qingyu can do if he doesn't admit it, right?"
"So what the above person is saying is that the freeloader wasn't caught on camera? Aren't they just shamelessly refusing to admit their guilt?"
"Comparing Xie Qingyu to a freeloader? That's an insult to Xie!!"
"Insults and Thanks +1"
"Insult +1"
"+1"
“+10086”
——
Hearing Wei Liangchen's question, Xie Qingyu just smiled without saying anything, and couldn't help but think of what Liu Yue said to him in the production team room.
"After we spoke with player Zhang Hui, he flatly denied his actions, but you don't have to worry too much. The rankings will be announced tomorrow, and no matter what, he won't be making it to the next round!"
Liu Yue's expression was calm when she said this, as if this was just a very small matter to her.
The attitude of the program team is obviously on his side, but Xie Qingyu does not really think that this is the program team's appreciation of him. Everything is based on the exchange of interests.
He was able to get this guarantee because the value he showed to the program team was far greater than that of another person, so he received a 'fair' judgment.
If the two people's values were swapped, it would be questionable whether Xie Qingyu would be able to sit here and talk with the chief producer today.
This circle is so cruel and realistic, yet it has its own unique beauty!
"He didn't admit it?"
No one expected Bai Lang to speak at this time, and everyone in the dormitory looked at him.
Bai Lang faced everyone's gaze, looked into Xie Qingyu's eyes and said seriously, "I can testify!"
Xie Qingyu shook his head and smiled: "I won't have much contact with him from now on."
He didn't say it explicitly, but everyone understood the implicit meaning of his words, and the depression in their hearts was somewhat relieved.
"Alright, alright, everyone go home. We haven't even had our Qingyu meal yet! We have a lot to do today, so go home and get some rest."
Ding Zai saw that the time on the wall clock was almost half past seven. Thinking that Xie Qingyu had not had dinner yet, he thought that this matter would have to end here for the time being.
We’ll talk about the follow-up things later, people still have to live in the present!
He persuaded everyone who was not in dormitory 122 to leave one by one, and also pulled Leo, who didn't want to leave, and the dishonest Wei Liangchen out of the house, leaving room for Xie Qingyu in the dormitory.
As for the remaining two people in the dormitory, Gu Yan and Wei Ran, they were both very emotionally stable people, so he was not too worried about them.
After the noisy crowd left, Gu Yan opened the lid of the takeaway box on the table. It was still warm because it was covered with a layer of insulation paper.
"Come and eat, young master! The cafeteria has developed a new dish today: stir-fried winter melon with pineapple. It tastes pretty good~"
After saying that, he raised his eyebrows and glanced at Xie Qingyu, to see if he dared to come over. Wei Ran pursed his lips and smiled secretly beside him.
Xie Qingyu curled the corners of his mouth, walked over and sat at the table, closed his eyes, clasped his hands together and performed a prayer ceremony.
"Then I'll have to carefully taste the aunts' cooking!"
After the ceremony, the insulation paper was removed, and inside... of course it wasn't fried pineapple with winter melon!
Looking at the shrimp, corn, chicken legs and rice stuffed into the lunch box, Xie Qingyu turned his head and shrugged at Gu Qi, indicating that this was the new dish he mentioned?
Gu Qi sat down next to Xie Qingyu and rubbed the back of Xie Qingyu's head. It was just as smooth and pleasant to touch as he had imagined.
Seeing Xie Qingyu staring at him in surprise, Gu Qi blinked and said innocently: "What's the matter? Don't you often touch that person's head? Others can't touch yours, right? Besides..."
"I--, 20!" He pointed at himself.
"You——, 17!!!" He pointed at Xie Qingyu again.
"You have to call me brother! It's only natural for me to rub your head!!!"
Xie Qingyu was speechless. If I told you my real age, you would be scared to death! And I still call you brother. You have to call me brother, and...
I'm the only one who touches other people's heads, OK?
Unable to express himself, Xie Qingyu could only eat his meal in frustration. Wei Ran, who was standing beside him, took out the 'Poison Queen' cup that belonged to Xie Qingyu, filled it with warm water and placed it next to him.
Looking at the cup, Xie Qingyu once again lamented the Feng Shui issue of 122. Of course, the cup was not bought by him, but was Wei Liangchen's "collection".
Mr. Wei brought a bunch of strange things in his suitcase when he came to the competition, and the funny cup was just the least strange one among them.
Since he came back from the last spin-off show, he let himself go and gave each of his roommates a funny cup from his treasure, which was not to be refused.
Xie Qingyu's is the 'Poison Queen', Gu Qi's is the big-nosed 'Shrek', Wei Ran's is the 'Cute Clown', Liu Xiu's is the 'Green-headed Fish', and Ding Zai's is the 'poop' shaped cup.
It’s really hard to guess his subjective intention in giving the cup!
Ding was scolding him for taking revenge, but Wei admitted it frankly and left himself a "muscle man" fitness cup.
——
After Xie Qingyu finished his meal, Ding Zai also came back dragging the listless Wei Liangchen.
Wei Liangchen is usually full of energy, like a perpetual motion machine, but at this moment he seems to have lost his soul and is completely listless.
Ding dragged him along while shaking his head helplessly: "This guy is really hopeless."
However, his "dejected" state only lasted until the second he saw Xie Qingyu.
After seeing Xie Qingyu, Wei Liangchen's eyes lit up, and he instantly recovered to full health. He broke free from Ding Zai's restraints, rushed forward and hugged Xie Qingyu's head.
"My baby is suffering! Suffering!" While muttering, he rubbed Xie Qingyu's hair hard, as if he wanted to hold him in his arms.
Xie Qingyu was forced to "bury her chest" and was in a bad mood.
He turned his face away firmly and persistently, looking at the other roommates, with a signal for help in his eyes.
Ding Zai sighed and lay on his back on Wei Ran's bed. It was obvious that he had become so accustomed to Wei Liangchen's behavior that he was tired of it.
The old hermaphrodite Gu Qi was leaning beside him with a smile on his face, looking like he was enjoying the show.
Wei Ran looked at Xie Qingyu's pleading gaze, shaking his head like a rattle, his eyes revealing helplessness: "Don't look at me, I can't do anything to him!"
Who on earth can control Wei Liangchen? SOS!! First aid!!!
Just then, the door opened with a click.
Liu Xiu walked in and saw Wei Liangchen's actions. He curled his lips in disgust and said, "Wei Liangchen, you are really disgusting. I think you are the kind of 'male mother' that netizens are talking about."
Wei Liangchen jumped up in anger at Liu Xiu's words, letting go of Xie Qingyu and yelling at Liu Xiu: "Who are you calling disgusting? I'm just caring about my roommate! Do you understand?"
Liu Xiu was too lazy to pay attention to him. He pushed the door open and walked in. He stood aside, revealing Bai Lang standing at the door.
Seeing that the people behind him didn't move, he was speechless. He really couldn't understand what these people were thinking about every day.
"Come in! What are you doing standing at the door like a door god? It's really weird, one of you standing silently at the door like a door god, and the other one is playing the role of a male mother inside. What kind of vision do the fans have..."
Wei Liangchen was furious at Liu Xiu's ridicule and rushed towards him with a roar.
"I'm going to fight you, you sarcastic old ghost!!" The voice was so loud that even Ding Zai, who was 'sitting up in shock from his dying illness', couldn't suppress it.
Xie Qingyu was finally freed from the suffocating "bondage of love" and took the opportunity to tidy up her hair that was messed up by Wei Liangchen.
At this moment, Xie Qingyu's gaze met Bai Tang's, who was looking straight at him. It was obvious that he was looking for him.
Xie Qingyu nodded, pointed outside the door, motioning for them to go out and talk, then stood up and followed Bai Lang out of the chaotic place.
Following Bai Lang's winding paths towards the blind spot of surveillance, the road seemed more and more familiar to me.
Until we arrived at our destination, it was hell!
——Isn’t this the “secret base” that Leo brought him to when the first episode of the show was broadcast?
Xie Qingyu was silent for a long time...
What kind of evil fate is this!
The base is so big, why did Bai Lang and Leo find the same place at the same time?
These two people always develop amazing tacit understanding inexplicably.
Seeing that Xie Qingyu didn't say anything, Bai Lang didn't say anything either.
The two of them stood face to face in this deserted corner, with only the buzzing of mosquitoes around them.
"Do you have something to say to me?" Xie Qingyu sighed and took the lead in breaking the deadlock.
Because he knew how poisonous the mosquitoes in this corner were.
After watching the show, Wei Liangchen looked at me meaningfully for several days.
Before his character collapsed, Xie Qingyu didn't think much about it. But now he has seen how unhealthy this man's thinking is. He "knows" too many things, which scares Xie Qingyu every time.
Especially today, Wei Liangchen watched her go out with Bai Lang. If she went back late, she didn't know what he would do to her. Thinking of this, Xie Qingyu felt suffocated.
"sorry!"
"ah?"
Xie Qingyu was stunned for a moment, a little confused. What kind of apology was this? Today's incident had little to do with Bai Lang, and he didn't understand why Bai Lang apologized.
Bai Lang took a deep breath, his emotions somewhat unstable, and whispered, "I didn't expect my actions would bring you so much criticism and debate. It's my fault for not thinking properly, and my actions..."
After returning this afternoon, he felt very guilty for a while.
I can't understand why it's okay for Leo to do some things, but not for him.
It was clearly his behavior that was inappropriate, but it was Xie Qingyu who had to endure more strange looks and malice.
Xie Qingyu smiled, his tone relaxed: "I thought it was something serious!"
In fact, he really felt that it was okay. Bai Lang was not a person who had no sense of propriety at all.
It's no big deal to hype up a relationship with someone he doesn't dislike, he can also benefit from it, he can't have it all!
You have to hype up the popularity of the CP, but you also have to have another person bear all the risks that come with hyping up the CP.
As for his original NOVA-X group, there were five people in the group, and the fans arranged them crosswise, forming a total of 10 CP pairs, and no one was left out. Who can I complain to?
If I tell fans that none of the couples in our show are really together, what will they say?
They say you're being stubborn! They say you two are truly in love!! They say you two are just having a fight!!!
So Xie Qingyu is quite open-minded about the fans' support for the couple. As long as they don't ask him to get married on the spot in front of them, then let them be happy.
There are so few happy things in life, so why deprive them of the few joys they have?
Moreover, as a top star, he is bound to experience more controversies and storms. Xie Qingyu knows that top stars are prone to "bloody storms". What can this incident prove?
This shows that he is slowly gaining momentum here.
Besides, compared with the malice he suffered in another world, this little disturbance was nothing.
He was once photoshopped into his death photo and cursed to death, but isn't he alive and well now? Life has given him a second chance.
Xie Qingyu is a person who firmly believes that love lasts longer than hate, and the love that fans give him is far greater than the insignificant hate.
Seeing Bai Lang lowering his head as if waiting for trial, Xie Qingyu's heart softened.
He took a step forward, gently placed Bai Tang's head on his shoulder, and asked softly, "Do you remember what you said to me in the dormitory when I was sick?"
Bai Lang leaned against Xie Qingyu's shoulder, pursed his lips, suppressed the sourness in his nose, and murmured "hmm".
Xie Qingyu continued, "Didn't you advise me not to take all the responsibility on my shoulders? Why am I stuck in a vicious circle now?
We all have different personalities and view things from different perspectives.
Some people can accept the same thing, while others cannot accept it at all. We should allow for differences.
Therefore, whether to do something or not, or what my code of conduct is, never depends on what others think of it, but on you yourself.
Can you still insist on being yourself despite being influenced by so many voices?
The nature of our profession predisposes us to more extreme emotions than others.
Whether it's love or hate, we can't control the human heart. The only thing we can do is to love ourselves enough. Your existence is the soil that allows these emotions to take root and survive!"
Xie Qingyu gently pushed Bai Tang away, pointed at the hoop earring on her right ear, and said with a smile: "Besides, haven't I already received the apology?"
Bai Lang lowered his eyes to hide the tears in the corners of his eyes, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and whispered: "Thank you, Qingyu..."
Xie Qingyu patted his shoulder and said in a relaxed tone: "Okay, stop being so pretentious. The mosquitoes are almost biting me into a sieve. Let's go back quickly."
"Um."
The night was getting darker, and the full moon slowly rose from behind the clouds, parting the mist and casting a cool silver light.
The silhouettes of the two gradually became clear in the moonlight, the wind blew gently, and time seemed to stand still...
