Qin Wei was hesitating when Li Mai took the initiative to open the door first. He looked at her with a calm expression, as if he had never seen her before, and took the initiative to nod and shake hands with her:
"Hello, I'm the music producer Li Mai, and I'm also the music consultant for Group F during this time. I hope we can cooperate happily in the future and create the best work."
At first, Qin Wei was a little confused, and then realized that it was probably because the live broadcast was still going on at the moment, so he didn't want to admit knowing each other. So she also took the initiative to introduce herself:
"Teacher Li Mai, hello. I'm the actress Qin Wei, and from now on I'm a member of Group F. Please give me more guidance in the future."
After a simple and polite greeting between the two, Qin Wei entered the practice room.
After everyone else arrived, Li Mai asked everyone to sit down. After a simple self-introduction, he said:
"Brother Yang Xiao has already told everyone about the rules of the competition. Because each group's situation is different, the program team needs the class tutors to emphasize some more.
I'm going to finish it in five minutes here, and then we'll move on to the next task."
A total of 70 people were shortlisted for this competition, divided into six groups according to rank. The first three groups have 10 people each, the fourth group has 12 people, and the last two groups have 14 people each.
The first elimination competition will take place in ten days. In the meantime, in addition to daily training, members of each group will also undergo several assessments, with each assessment score counting towards the total score.
"If I explain all the detailed rules at once, you won't remember them all. I'll emphasize them to you all as we go along. Please rest assured.
What I want to say now is that this competition is mainly recorded and broadcasted, which means it is recorded, edited, and then broadcasted. I'm sure you all know this better than me.
As for live broadcasts, apart from today and group night, other times are only used to show your daily life.
There are live broadcast cameras in the villa where you live, right there in the living room, which means everything you do in the living room will also be watched by everyone.
There will be irregular votes for popularity there, and the number of votes will also count towards the score. In each elimination competition, apart from the team that comes first in the competition and all of its members will be safe, members of other groups may be eliminated. Elimination is based on the daily scores, so the scores are quite important."
After saying this, Li Mai emphasized again:
"I know it might be a bit confusing hearing this for the first time.
Simply put, the recordings are aimed at training and competitions, while the live broadcasts are about daily life and group night.
The reason for separating them is not hard to understand either, because this show is a collaboration between multiple platforms, each with their own needs.
The two parts need to be broadcast on different platforms, for different target audiences. You will gradually understand this too."
When Li Mai got to this point, the female artists sitting below began to whisper to each other, and a girl with big eyes raised her hand to ask Li Mai:
"How do we earn points? Will we lose points for doing something wrong?"
Li Mai shook his head to reassure everyone:
"Points mainly come from daily assessments and popularity votes during live broadcasts, plus a small portion comes from full attendance...
After all, the sisters here are all debuted artists, we can't really stop you from taking on jobs...
We can only give a little encouragement to the sisters who insist on training every day!
As for deducting points, there is no plan for that at the moment. The program team and us all believe that the sisters will work very hard, there is no opportunity to deduct points."
"What about our living conditions? Don't tell me we have to rely on our own efforts to earn even food and drink!? This wasn't explained in detail before."
Li Mai shook his head again to reassure everyone:
"After all, our show is not a survival show, we won't make things difficult for everyone in terms of living conditions.
Not only that, whatever food and drink you sisters want during your time here, you can tell the staff and we will try our best to satisfy everyone.
As for accommodation, the program team has arranged six villas for the six groups.
Of course, because everyone's initial rankings are different, the villas allocated are slightly different too, from A to F, from biggest to smallest. The one our group first lives in is a bit cramped, but!
The environment is not bad!
Everyone can rest assured that as long as you work hard, after the eliminations end, everyone will be regrouped..."
The members kept asking all kinds of petty questions, and Li Mai did his best to answer everyone. Meanwhile, Qin Wei didn't ask a single question, after all, she was very clear about what kind of life trainees lead.
Comments:
[Qin Wei is so serious]
[She's probably very worried, fourteen people living together, can worldly riches and honors withstand that? ]
[When she goes to the villa later, won't she drop out that very night? Delicate and pampered, tsk tsk.]
[The person above is saying this because they haven't seen her previous variety shows! She stayed in the same room as other guests too. You can criticize but don't blindly hate on her.]
[But with her abilities, won't she be eliminated in the first round?]
[Hard to say, Sister Qin is a hidden gem, she always manages to surprise us.]
[With comedic surprises.]
[But based on now, being ranked last means the lowest popularity, and her skills aren't good either...could be dangerous.]
[Let's wait and see!]
That night after getting her phone, Qin Wei felt a little annoyed seeing predictions all over the internet that she would be the first one eliminated.
After joining the group she hadn't done anything yet but was already being talked about. Everyone else could talk about her, but she couldn't freely clap back!
She continued scrolling idly on her phone, and coincidentally saw a poll started by the official account:
[@Sailing Against the Wind Sisters: In Group F, who do you think is least likely to be eliminated?]
Below were 14 options in total, and it showed at the bottom:
140,000 people have participated in the vote.
140,000 people, who did they support? Qin Wei was a little curious.
To see the results, she had to vote first. Qin Wei clicked on herself.
"Damn, only 1,000 votes."
What she didn't know was that the voting results would automatically share:
[Qin Wei_Vivian: I participated in the poll started by @Sailing Against the Wind Sisters [In Group F, who do you think is least likely to be eliminated?], I voted for the option "Qin Wei", come show your stance too~]
5 minutes later she received a WeChat message from Li Yao:
[Li Yao: I think...having confidence is good, but you should still use an alt account to vote for yourself...]
[Li Yao: But remember to keep your confidence up!]
Only then did Qin Wei notice this post of hers, which already had over 100,000 comments.
[Sister Qin are you afraid of losing?]
[Ohhh voting for yourself without an alt account?]
[Hahahaha how awkward!]
[When she's eliminated in the first round and looks back at this post, will she cry?]
[Huh? Sister Qin you care about this?]
[Looks like Er Ya really wants to win! I thought you didn't care. Don't worry! This fan is going to go vote for you now!]
[Let me share this first and see if she'll quietly delete it after being eliminated in the first round hahahaha]
Qin Wei regretted voting a little. It was too late to delete it now, and she usually didn't even pay attention to this platform, how would she know the voting results would be shared.
She rubbed her temples, already feeling a little tired thinking about what was to come.
If she really was eliminated in the first round, she'd probably be mocked by the whole Internet for a long time again...
