"Title: Watermelon-Eating Discussion/After Chasing Celebrities for So Many Years, I Finally Encountered a Merciful God [Crying]"
"Random Entertainment, you deserve your big business!"
"I feel like I won't encounter someone like Random Entertainment in my next life."
Comment section:
"What's going on?"
"It's really fun, even more so if I get selected."
"Reply: The Midsummer Night Music Festival is about to have its final show, held during Labor Day. Admission is free, but food is not provided. You'll have to buy your own food and drinks. They also reimburse 1,000 yuan for travel expenses and 500 yuan for accommodation, which means you can earn a bit while attending. The bad news is that it's a lottery system."
"If the selection were today, there might be a better chance when the crowd is smaller, but it opens next week. With Random Entertainment's loudspeaker effect, I estimate the whole internet will know within two days. Just wait and see, the marketing accounts will be busy."
"Attention all internet marketing accounts! Random Entertainment's new order has arrived!"
"See, I told you Random Entertainment is the most marketing-loving company within the industry!"
"Already seeing marketing accounts starting to post."
"Such a good deal, why not market it? Do you want to keep it a secret?"
"Report: There's an enemy honey in the building!"
"They invite you to the music festival and let you walk away with 1,500 yuan. Such a good deal, why not promote it? Do you want to let it rot in your stomach?"
"Although Random Entertainment has always been benevolent, it suddenly doing this still scared me a bit."
"Is Random Entertainment about to go under?"
"Pfft pfft pfft! Everyone in the building, say pfft pfft pfft! Stop cursing our company!"
"Back to Midsummer Night" is about to hold its final music festival. As netizens said, after the latest episode aired, Random Entertainment's offer to invite the public to the music festival for free was spread by marketing accounts.
For a whole week, as long as you opened your phone, you could see related push notifications. The momentum was so huge that it made people feel Random Entertainment was preparing a big move.
Random Entertainment's career fans were worried for it, spending all the money it earned in a year on this.
They wanted to see what was coming next.
On the day the Midsummer Night Music Festival opened its application channel, the official account also went live to report in real-time how many users were applying.
There were indeed people who had nothing better to do and clicked into the live stream to watch.
"...I thought there would at least be a spot for me in a music festival venue that can hold 40,000 people. Wow, there are over 200,000 applicants."
"Close it now! Close it now! Close it now!"
"It was just 210,000 a moment ago, now it's 320,000?"
"I'm convinced by some people, you'll be checked in with your ID card, what are you applying with your grandpa's ID for?"
"It's only ten in the morning, wait until noon, there will be even more applicants."
"Considering I watched every episode, let me get selected!"
"What's special about May? Could it be because AIcho is releasing a summer single and they're creating momentum for them?"
"You're overestimating AIcho a bit too much..."
"Random Entertainment even made a game for five androids, what's impossible?"
Everyone was full of guesses about Random Entertainment's intentions for such a big commotion.
The fact was indeed as outsiders guessed, Random Entertainment was creating momentum for its upcoming projects.
Their intention to build an idol market ecosystem within the domestic entertainment industry was no longer a secret. From the beginning of the year's song ranking program to the later opening of the self-made variety show section, inviting small artists and ordinary people to participate in the program recording, the market had been activated.
Everyone likes to follow and pay attention to matters related to their own interests. The self-made variety show section of Random Entertainment is like this. It converts play counts into revenue, and producers can withdraw it.
But to ensure the quality of the section, a proposal needs to be submitted before opening the channel, along with the first three episodes of the video, and only after passing the review can it be opened.
Video revenue is one aspect, and section popularity is another.
This section has been in trial operation for two months, and many programs have performed well online. Programs with artists and ordinary people as the main focus are half and half, and some ordinary people have even become small internet celebrities because of this.
Those with keen senses might feel that this is another opportunity for fame in the internet era.
The public's concern for this section is like a snowball, getting bigger and bigger.
With popularity, the program will also receive attention.
For example, "Let's Learn This Much Today," produced by a highly popular host and Pei Luming, is an English teaching program that covers one grammar and one word per episode.
They are the MCs, and there are guests participating every episode. The recording takes place in a camping tent set up in the studio, with the grammar and word to be learned as the center to find story topics, integrating words and sentences into the content.
This method is extremely effective for students who are not good at rote memorization.
With a national host and a current popular actor as MCs, the program's attention naturally is not low. So far, six episodes have been broadcast, with actors promoting their dramas, singers promoting their songs, and even artists casually coming to chat.
This leisurely feeling of chatting about recent developments in a tent has made many viewers feel very healing, and the program's click rate has been rising.
Because this program has become popular, the click rate of the entire section has also increased, and other programs have also received attention.
There is also a program without an MC called "Dormitory Night Talk," where guests with a specific number of people bring their luggage to check in and experience a night of dormitory life.
While promoting their works, they also return to their student days and share memories from their student life.
This approach has also attracted the interest of many students, and some even asked the program team to be more authentic and add dormitory inspections and surprise checks for illegal electrical appliances.
The latest episode's guests were AIcho, who are about to release a summer single. When the four of them pulled their luggage in, they were quite excited, but then suddenly remembered something.
"It seems like this is the first time the four of us have stayed together."
"?"
"Didn't you live in a dormitory?"
"I want to explain, but I'm afraid it sounds too pretentious... Random Entertainment's treatment is too good, trainees all have single rooms."
"Even my graduate dormitory wasn't a single room..."
Realizing this, the eyes of the other three also lit up.
Han Lemi exclaimed happily, "That's right, we've never slept together as four before!"
Pei Zhiping was still looking around. The dormitory had bunk beds with desks underneath, and the aisle in the middle wasn't very wide, just like a real student dormitory.
"Does anyone snore?" Yu Dan asked directly.
Han Lemi quickly raised her hand like a primary school student, "I don't snore, Pei Zhiping can vouch for me!"
"I don't snore or grind my teeth," Si Yanyu said.
After confirming that there were no bad sleeping habits, they divided the beds according to their preferences and quickly got busy.
Pei Zhiping only brought a thin mattress, a thin blanket, and a small pillow.
Han Lemi, on the other hand, brought everything, including a mattress, a bed pad, and even four companion dolls.
Yu Dan looked at her still busy on the bed and tilted her head to ask, "Did you forget to bring the curtains in your dormitory luggage?"
Han Lemi poked her head out from the bed, "How did you know?"
"You always bring almost everything from home when you go out," Si Yanyu said after looking at Pei Zhiping's bed, "Pei Zhiping is the opposite, she almost wants to throw her luggage away."
"Extremes meet, even more to love!"
"My kitty and bunny CP! My two good daughters!"
"The contrast between these beds is almost laughable, Han Lemi's bed is a whole palm higher than Pei Zhiping's!"
The thing that always attracts people in a dormitory at night is that bowl of instant noodles. The previous few people had talked a lot about their trainee life, and they were all tired, wanting to sleep. The lights were turned off, and it was quiet for a few seconds, but then Han Lemi suddenly said,
"I'm hungry..."
Yu Dan followed, "I'm a bit hungry too."
"Eat!" Si Yanyu sat up directly.
"Hahahahahaha this thing really happens in every dormitory!"
"I told you, the dormitory is cursed by the instant noodle god, you will definitely be possessed by the instant noodle god at night."
"I can't stop laughing, as soon as Han Lemi finished speaking, my roommate quietly got out of bed to make instant noodles."
But none of the four of them had brought instant noodles with them. Pei Zhiping was about to persuade the other three to give up when she looked up and saw a small business card under the bed board.
She climbed onto the table, took the card down, and read, "Girls' Dormitory Convenience Store..."
"Who else is being hit by this? There really is a dormitory in our dormitory building that runs a convenience store and delivers it to your door. For an extra dollar, they'll even cook it for you."
"Ahhh, it's so real!"
"After so many episodes, this is the first time someone has found the dormitory convenience store. It's hilarious."
Pei Zhiping turned back to look at the three girls blinking at her and took a deep breath, "We'll take two."
"Four people sharing two buckets! My goodness, I can usually finish two buckets by myself!" Han Lemi started to painfully scratch the table.
Yu Dan's attention was diverted, "Wow, I can only eat one and a half buckets by myself! You're amazing, you can eat two!"
In the end, Pei Zhiping called to order three buckets of instant noodles, she wouldn't eat any, while the other three would each have one.
"You really won't eat?"
"Try some."
"This one is really delicious!"
Pei Zhiping firmly said, "No, thanks."
As they slurped their noodles, Pei Zhiping didn't forget their mission here. The promotion for their new song had already been completed while they were talking about trainee life. Now there was one more task left—
"No, no, let's talk about something else... Oh right, it seems that starting from our version of the album, there are other additional items besides the trading cards. I wasn't at the last meeting, what did the PD say it was?"
Mentioning this, the other three also remembered they had another task.
Han Lemi quickly bit off her noodles and eagerly said, "It's amazing, really amazing!"
"I didn't quite understand when they said it was a 3D MV scene, but I saw the actual item, it's a small acrylic cube about the size of a palm, and inside is a single MV scene." Yu Dan also picked up the conversation.
Pei Zhiping thought for a moment, "Like the projection figures from the senior group Timetrain?"
"Not the same thing, theirs are projections, ours feel like a miniaturized MV scene."
"For a single person?"
"Yeah."
Han Lemi thought about it and found a suitable description, "It's a bit like... Schrödinger's cat."
"Whose DNA is activated."
"I can't imagine it."
"I just know that Random Entertainment is about to empty my wallet again."
"The trading card speculator's nose is twitching."
Random Entertainment plans to develop new circulation merchandise to replace trading cards and become the new "currency" in the domestic market.
Trading card speculator: It's time for me to step in and make a killing again!
