Chapter 87: The inside story? (Subscribe)
“The first place in this performance is…”
Director Jiang Dan paused for a moment, then looked at the tablet, took a deep breath and spoke slowly.
“The first place winner is… Li Xingyu!”
“Li Xingyu received 468 votes from the audience, 90.5 points from the instructors, and 13,102,388 votes from the online votes! A total of 13,102,946.5 points!”
“Second place, Zhou Yu! A total of 473 votes from the audience, 90.9 points from the instructors, and 11,029,323 votes from the online votes! A total of 11,029,886.9 points!”
“Third place, Lin Hao…”
“Fourth place… Liu Chao…”
“Fifth place… Zhao Lei…”
…
When everyone saw the final ranking result, they were all stunned, and many people were shocked.
“No way? Zhou Yu is not the first? What’s going on?”
“Ah? Li Xingyu is the first? No, I saw Zhou Yu’s votes were higher than his online before, ranking first, how could this be?”
“What’s going on? Zhou Yu is only the second, how is it possible? His song is so good, how can he only be the second?”
“This…what’s going on? I saw on Weibo before that Zhou Yu’s votes were still very high, how come there are only more than 11 million in the end?”
“Why? Your Zhou Yu is allowed to win, but our brother Xingyu is not allowed to win? Before, our brother Xingyu hadn’t played yet. After our brother Xingyu played, his votes rose very quickly.”
“That’s right, if you are not good enough, don’t say it here. Our brother Xingyu is the best.”
……
Lin Jiajia looked at the current ranking results and frowned slightly. Zhou Yu actually lost to Li Xingyu. How is it possible?
She quickly went to check the voting on Weibo. The voting channel was closed, but the rankings of the students could still be seen. Li Xingyu ranked first with more than 13 million votes, and Zhou Yu ranked second with more than 11 million votes.
“How could it be?”
When she saw it before, Zhou Yu was ahead by a lot, and had already reached 10 million votes. Even if Li Xingyu’s votes rose quickly after he came on stage, it would be impossible to surpass Zhou Yu.
The key is that Zhou Yu’s song is so beautiful and of such high quality. It stands to reason that with the previous popularity accumulation, the number of votes for this performance must be higher than before. As a result, Zhou Yu’s online votes are actually lower than before.
An idea suddenly popped up in Lin Jiajia’s mind.
“Locked votes?!”
As soon as this idea came up, Lin Jiajia felt that this was the most likely thing. Before, she thought that those people wanted to suppress Zhou Yu, but why didn’t they make any moves? It turned out that they were waiting here.
They actually bought off Weibo and manipulated the online data directly, right?
Haha, as expected, these capitalists are all the same, profit-seeking. And I guess behind this, their interests are also intertwined.
Lin Jiajia looked at Zhou Yu’s ranking and his final score, and sneered.
“It’s really disgusting.”
These guys, in order to achieve their goals, forced Zhou Yu to submit, and they have already disregarded fairness.
But…
Lin Jiajia thought of Zhou Yu’s normal increase in voting data before, but it was only at the end, after Li Xingyu appeared, that he began to be overtaken. At that time, the votes were locked, and most people had already voted, and it was estimated that no one would notice the change in the final votes. After all, they all opened up the relationship with Weibo, and it was easy to secretly manipulate some voting data.
But they didn’t do it so obviously. Zhou Yu’s votes rose normally in the beginning, and then they locked the votes manually, and the increase dropped, which increased Li Xingyu’s. It was done very covertly, without anyone noticing. I think they were afraid that the revelation would have too much impact, so this operation looked more normal.
But once Zhou Yu’s song came out, coupled with Zhou Yu’s previous strength that everyone had seen, it felt a bit like you were trying to cover up something. If she were to say, it would be better to be more direct.
Lin Jiajia watched the live broadcast of the program. Now it was almost over, and the camera did not switch to Zhou Yu. Only Director Jiang Dan was still working hard to complete the advertising words. Finally, the program ended.
I didn’t see Zhou Yu and other teachers’ expressions, but
Lin Jiajia could guess that Zhou Yu must be feeling bad.
“It’s been suppressed twice in a row…”
The last time was in the seventh episode, and this time it happened again. Lin Jiajia is also half a circle, and has some connections, so she knows why Zhou Yu was targeted. She doesn’t know whether Zhou Yu will finally compromise under pressure and choose to sign with one of the companies. But in her heart, she doesn’t want Zhou Yu to bow to these people. But the truth is cruel, and many times, you can’t do what you want.
At the show, the students who knew the inside story looked at Zhou Yu with sarcasm. Li Xingyu and Lin Hao looked at Zhou Yu with mixed feelings, especially Li Xingyu. Although he won, he didn’t feel that kind of pleasure in his heart. Instead, he was a little worried that Zhou Yu would not be able to bear the pressure from the company this time and agree to the company’s invitation.
If he agreed, he would no longer be the only ace student in the company. Given the importance the company places on Zhou Yu, it is clear that if Zhou Yu came to the company, he would not have the good resources he has now.
Zhao Lei also couldn’t understand why his brother Yu performed so well but lost.
“No, how could it be, Brother Yu, you performed so well, the quality of the song is so high, how could you lose?”
Zhou Yu had a calm face, and had expected such a result. Looking at Zhao Lei who was complaining about himself, he smiled and said, “Leizi, this circle is very complicated. You will understand some things in the future.”
Zhao Lei was slightly stunned, as if he had thought of something. He looked at Zhou Yu and whispered, “Brother Yu, are you saying that someone is deliberately targeting you?”
Zhou Yu looked at this innocent child who was still in college, patted his shoulder and said, “Don’t talk about this. Let’s go. The recording is over. Let’s go back and rest.”
Zhao Lei always felt that something was wrong in the last two episodes, and hurriedly followed Zhou Yu’s pace.
Wen Shiyi stood up slightly and looked at Zhou Yu’s back as he left. He seemed free and easy, but she always felt that Zhou Yu must be uncomfortable.
Obviously, the first place was his, but it was given to others by those people behind him in a shady way.
Li Xue left with a proud look on her face.
Chen Mo sighed, “This water is deep.”
They all knew why Zhou Yu didn’t get the first place, but no one dared to say it or do anything. Even though they are now very famous and influential. But he would not easily offend domestic giant companies, which would be a joke with his own future.
What they can do is to help Zhou Yu within their ability. At least, he will not lose fairness like Zeng Huayu and Li Xue, and deliberately target and suppress Zhou Yu.
Yang Qian looked at Zhou Yu’s back and sighed, “I don’t know if Zhou Yu will compromise this time.”
This time, Zhou Yu’s first place, which should have been given to someone else, was directly given to someone else. It is estimated that anyone would be hit.
Wen Shiyi pursed her red lips. She should have guessed that those people would tamper with the online data.
Her eyes flickered for a moment, but she turned around and left with Sister Lin.
Sitting in the car on the way home, Sister Lin was also complaining: “I really didn’t expect that in order to force Teacher Zhou Yu, they actually changed the data of the online voting channel directly. It seems that they have already informed Weibo.”
On Weibo, everyone in the entertainment industry knows that as long as you pay, everything will be easy. You can buy hot searches as long as the money is in place.
Moreover, Xingguang, as one of the four major companies in China, has a relationship and interest entanglement with Weibo that is not ordinary. It only takes a word or a little money to suppress an amateur contestant.
Xiaoqin also complained while driving: “That’s right, it’s too abominable. Teacher Zhou Yu is so powerful, but he actually tripped me up!”
Wen Shiyi is holding her mobile phone at this moment, sending messages to Zhou Yu.
“How are you?”
Zhou Yu had just finished taking a shower at this time. He was holding the phone given by the program team and watching videos. He didn’t care about what happened today at all.
Didn’t they just want to suppress him and force him to submit?
Today, he just felt that the last suppression was not harsh enough. This time, he wanted to make himself feel painful. He wanted to let himself see that you can easily get the first place. If you don’t listen to them, then they can also replace the first place with someone else.
This is putting pressure on him and showing off his muscles.
But he doesn’t care about these at all. He lost the ranking, but it doesn’t mean that he will lose in other places. He knows very well that his songs are widely spread on the Internet. Once the songs are online tomorrow, they will probably be as popular on the Internet as before.
.
This is the experience he has gained in this world after so many episodes, and it is also the confidence in himself and the songs he chooses.
What they do will only help him increase his popularity, and he can’t thank them enough.
And…
It’s already the eighth episode, and he won’t agree to the requests of the two companies. After that, those people will definitely not keep him.
By then…
He has already thought about the future.
Once this song “You Once” is released, his popularity should soar, and with the suppression of Xingguang Huatian, it can be regarded as a disguised way to help himself increase topics and traffic. Later, it’s time to find time to pursue freedom.
Seeing the message sent by Wen Shiyi, Zhou Yu smiled slightly: “What can I do.”
Wen Shiyi looked at Zhou Yu’s reply and pursed her red lips, not knowing whether he was pretending to be relaxed or really fine.
“What are you going to do next? If you don’t agree, they will definitely not let you stay on the show.”
Zhou Yu was naturally clear that if he didn’t agree, Xingguang Entertainment and Huatian would definitely not let him stay and hinder them from promoting people.
“We’ll see when the time comes.”
Wen Shiyi was also stunned for a moment. It’s urgent, and you are not in a hurry at all?
At this moment, on the Internet, the news about tonight’s “Idol Son” dominated the hot searches again.
“The eighth episode of Idol Son is on air!”
“Zhou Yu’s new song stage!”
“Zhou Yu’s new song “You in the Past!”
“Zhou Yu is second!”
“Zhou Yu actually lost to Li Xingyu!”
“There is a shady deal in Idol Son!”
“Zhou Yu is targeted!”
“Li Xingyu is first!”
