Chapter 2257 Finals Night
2257
"Xi Yan, you are really lucky." Guo Yunpeng and Jin Xiyan said while walking to the elevator.
"Why do you say that, Mr. Guo?" Jin Xiyan asked.
"Aren't you lucky enough to be able to catch the Taiping line? Taiping is not an ordinary person." Guo Yunpeng said.
"I have always been grateful to Oppa." Jin Xiyan nodded.
"Follow Taiping well and you will definitely become popular." Guo Yunpeng said.
"Yes!" Jin Xiyan nodded, and then the two of them walked into the elevator together.
The next night.
seven thirty.
Xu Taiping’s special car arrived at the Bird’s Nest.
There was already a sea of people outside the Bird's Nest, and the Beijing police deployed a large number of police officers to maintain order at the scene.
Although the finals started at eight o'clock, the Bird's Nest was almost full at 7:30. In fact, so many people outside the Bird's Nest had not bought tickets, but in order to support their idols, these people still When they came to the side of the Bird's Nest, they pulled up various banners and formed various formations to promote the idols they supported. Moreover, they would also give out various gifts with idols' names and patterns to people passing by. Everything, everyone is very positive.
"Do you think they can have such enthusiasm for their parents?" Xu Taiping asked Guo Yunpeng next to him while sitting in the car.
Xu Taiping had dinner with Guo Yunpeng tonight, and Guo Yunpeng was also one of the judges of the finals, so they both came to the Bird's Nest together.
"That said, for them, their idols are more important than their parents." Guo Yunpeng said with a smile.
"Is there anyone in this world who is closer than my parents?" Xu Taiping asked in surprise.
"Of course, how about the fan economy? Idols are more important to fans than parents. These young people are willing to spend money to chase stars. If they earn 3,000 a month, they can use 2,500 to chase stars. You Ask them, who is willing to spend 2,500 to buy something for their parents? Why are there more and more idols in recent years? It’s because fans’ money is so profitable, so everyone is crazy about making idols, and making idols is also easy. You see, Kim Hee-yeon doesn’t know anything, she’s not good at dancing or singing, she’s just good-looking, and then you give her a personality, and she becomes popular all of a sudden, and you can make money and realize it, with very little investment and huge output. , have you heard of the saying? Creating idols can make more money than producing drugs." Guo Yunpeng said.
"That's not good." Xu Taiping frowned and said, "It's not good that a person only chases stars but doesn't know how to honor his parents."
"It's just a process. After this stage, the vast majority of people can still return to normal life. Just like when many people were addicted to Internet cafes and games, wasn't it just a period of time? No one can really Treat star chasing as a necessary career, a hobby for a while, as long as we can ensure that we make enough money from him during the period when he likes stars, that's fine." Guo Yunpeng said.
Xu Taiping looked at the people outside the window who were working hard to cheer for his idol, and felt a little sad, because they were actually just money in the eyes of the idol.
"These days, appearance is a tool for making money." Guo Yunpeng couldn't help but sigh, "No matter what you do, if you are good-looking, you are destined to be rich. We have countless talent scouts every day. Outside, the job is to find those good-looking people. Once a group of people are found, a new group of young people will grow up. Every industry will go out of style, but... the star-making industry will never go out of style. "
"What if one day people don't like good-looking things?" Xu Taiping asked.
"We are also prepared for this. We don't just look for good-looking ones, we also look for talented ones. With a little packaging, even if they don't become popular, we won't lose money. When people don't like good-looking ones, we will introduce these interesting ones. Talented ones. In addition, if you don’t like singing, dancing or acting, we also have other talents, such as cross talk. We cooperate with Deyu Society and package one or two of their cross talk actors every year, as well as those from Peking Opera and rap. Yes, in short, you can make money, the entertainment industry is a very profitable industry, no matter which path you take, you can make money as long as you do it." Guo Yunpeng said.
"Then it's a pity that I sold so many companies." Xu Taiping said with a smile.
"That's not the case. You have been in the industry for too short a time. If you are suddenly given too many companies, you may not be able to play. You are doing well as you are now. I also played your game. It is so fun. Now I sit down and play whenever I have free time," Guo Yunpeng said.
Xu Taiping smiled and looked out the window.
The car drove right in front of the Bird's Nest and finally entered the VIP parking lot.
Liu Yiqiang parked the car, and then Xu Taiping got out of the car and walked to the VIP channel with Guo Yunpeng.
"Where did you find these two people?" Guo Yunpeng asked in a low voice.
"You mean those two in the car?" Xu Taiping asked.
"Yeah!" Guo Yunpeng nodded and said, "The one who is cold is scary to look at, and the one who is wearing ancient costumes and holding a sword is even scarier."
"They... they have nothing to do now, so they followed me first and were responsible for helping me deal with some small things around me. But tonight we are going to the Bird's Nest to watch a show, so I didn't let them follow me." Xu Taiping said.
"What about that Tieshan from before? I think that guy is pretty good." Guo Yunpeng said.
"Tieshan went to study art." Xu Taiping said with a smile.
"Learning skills?" Guo Yunpeng was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Does it mean there is no end to learning?"
"Absolutely." Xu Taiping nodded.
The two of them walked into the VIP channel while chatting.
Soon, the two arrived at the gym.
Under the guidance of the staff, the two came to the guest seat.
There were already many people in the guest seats, and Xu Taiping was sitting in the middle and front seat.
Xu Taiping and Guo Yunpeng sat down, and then Xu Taiping asked, "What is the process tonight?"
"Everyone goes up to perform first. There are a total of eight people in the evening. They pk first. During the pk, the voting channel will be opened. Whoever gets more votes will advance. Then there will be four people left. The four people with the most accumulated votes will directly enter the finals. The other three will go directly to the finals. Individuals will perform again to compete for the remaining position in the finals. Finally, one person will be selected to enter the finals. In the finals, two people will perform separately, and then we, the guests, will vote. There are a total of one hundred guests tonight, all major media and industry professionals. People, the votes cast will be counted as 50% of the total votes, and the votes cast by the audience tonight will also be counted as half. In the end, the person with the highest percentage of votes will win, that is, Jin Xiyan will win." Guo Yunpeng said.
"How can you ensure that Jin Xiyan wins?" Xu Taiping asked.
"On-site turnout, these are all controllable in the background. You said there are tens of thousands of people in the Bird's Nest. If I change the data, who can see it? As for the one hundred professionals, those people don't need to control it, and generally they don't. There may be too big a disparity in scores, because in the future these media will have to cooperate with these new idol artists. If the scores are too disparate, then there may be problems with future cooperation. In fact, who wins first place, for us It doesn't matter to those in the industry, whoever can make money will cooperate with whose brokerage company." Guo Yunpeng said.
"That's it!" Xu Taiping nodded.
"Just think of this as a game. Even if Jin Xiyan gets the first place, it's useless without follow-up packaging operations. And all this depends on the company's support for her. Speaking of this...Taiping, you really have a plan. Huh?" Guo Yunpeng asked.
"It depends on her own fate." Xu Taiping said with narrowed eyes, "I will give her a chance and see if she can grasp it."
"Hey!" Guo Yunpeng sighed and looked towards the stage in the distance.
There was no one on the stage because the game hadn't started yet.
eight pm.
Hua Shao, one of the best hosts in the country, stepped onto the stage and started tonight's finals night with his unique smooth accent.
The various shouts of support at the scene were deafening.
The support outside the stadium was completely different from the support inside the stadium. The huge, uniform, and rhythmic shouting gave people a feeling of an army.
One by one, the idols walked onto the stage and started their performances.
Everything was performed according to the script. Who was eliminated first and who was eliminated second. These were all scripted and there were no surprises.
Kim Hee-yeon did not become the first person to enter the finals. It is said that this was to control the odds of off-site betting.
Everything can be bet, just like tonight's finals, the outsiders also opened the handicap, and the one who opened the handicap was Guo Yunpeng's company, saying that the money would not go to outsiders.
The odds of the handicap will change according to the on-site voting rate. If Kim Hee-yeon does not enter the finals first, then his odds are not favored. Once Kim Hee-yeon wins the championship, the bookmaker will make a lot of money. Very much money.
This kind of operation made Xu Taiping sigh once again, ten gambles and ten cheats, this is indeed true.
At 11 o'clock in the evening, Jin Xiyan finally defeated her opponent and entered the finals.
The two championship candidates started a head-to-head confrontation on the court.
"Who is this woman?" Xu Taiping looked at Jin Xiyan's opponent and asked.
"Her name is Xu Xiaoxiao. She is an amateur. She taught dance in a small county before joining this show. She is a fresh graduate. She can sing well and dance better. It is a bit surprising that this woman can enter the finals. I was surprised. Weren't there three people who were favored before? She was not among the three, but she was able to enter the finals. It seems that her ability has been recognized by everyone. Such a woman can still become popular after her debut. ", but it was just a flash in the pan. I looked at her information and found that no big agency was willing to sign her. She was signed by a third-rate small company, and she will probably be stuck in various bars and nightclubs from now on," Guo Yunpeng said.
"Xu Xiaoxiao?" Xu Taiping looked at the girl dancing and singing on the field and wrote down the name.
