Chapter 44: The Idol Master

"Idol Master" is a beautiful girl idol development game, produced by NamcoBandai. Probably one of the most successful Bishoujo games of all time, with many loyal fans. It was originally an arcade development game, and then it was ported to Xbox360, with the goal of cultivating a beautiful girl idol group, and to put it bluntly, it is the "Star Volunteer" of the new era.

As an otaku, Su Yifan has certainly played this game before, and he is still in the charter room. Su Yifan likes this kind of game to achieve goals through his various efforts, and he also likes to watch the scenes of beautiful girls being sought after by tens of thousands of people.

Su Yifan knows very well that the so-called "sense of achievement" most of the time comes from this kind of heart-warming hard work process. Work hard for a beautiful goal, and finally reap the results.

This kind of process is exactly the so-called "struggle" that every young person in this society dreams of.

Su Xiaoqing's suggestion is full of heart-pounding elements, and the most important thing is that Su Yifan knows that not only Zhang Yao has the potential to become a star, but Su Xiaoqing also has the strength to make his dreams come true.

There's no perfect combination like this.

The most important thing is that Su Yifan also knows that no matter what seems to be an understatement and careless proposal from Su Xiaoqing, she can quickly realize it.

"Sister Light...... We're talking about Zhang Yao, and I can't think of her life as a game. ”

"Isn't life a game?" Su Xiao chuckled and said, "There are games that I like and care about." ”

In this case, Su Yifan couldn't refute it, he could only silently recall Su Xiaoqing's suggestion just now in his heart.

I have to say that this suggestion is full of temptation, and there are many overlaps with Su Yifan's previous thinking.

"But...... I always felt that this was too hasty. Su Yifan thought about it and still felt a little worried, "Zhang Yao will definitely not accept this way, right?" ”

"That's your job." Su Xiao looked at Su Yifan with a chuckle, "As Zhang Yao's best friend, can you convince her?" ”

Su Yifan was not lightly treated by the general, he lowered his head and hesitated for a moment.

"Let me think about it."

For Su Yifan, this decision is not difficult to make, what he is really embarrassed about is how to convince Zhang Yao and make this matter seem less abrupt.

"I'm still worried that Zhang Yao won't agree." Su Yifan said honestly, "If you just ask her to sing a song, there should be no problem, if you need to do business with her, this is already a level that changes other people's lives." ”

"There's a lot of time, think slowly." Su Xiaoqing still didn't care about anything, "If you really want to do this, you are only responsible for taking Zhang Yao well, and I will figure out the other problems." ”

This condition made Su Yifan even more tempted, he knew that with Su Xiaoqing's style of doing things, as long as he did it, he would definitely do his best. In any case, Su Yifan hoped that Zhang Yao could be in this state, but he was still not sure whether this matter was good or bad for Zhang Yao.

Su Xiaoqing said that everything was up to the point, and then he didn't talk about it anymore.

Su Yifan was so full of worries that he thought about it all night.

When Su Xiaoqing sent Su Yifan home in the evening, he took the Air laptop in the secret base in his schoolbag and took it home.

After doing the prescribed exercise and taking a shower, Su Yifan searched the Internet alone for a long time and downloaded a lot of information to his laptop.

The next day, Su Yifan took his laptop to school, and then he found that although it was just such a light laptop, if the weight increased when running to school, the amount of exercise would increase geometrically.

Su Yifan panted and took out his laptop in his position, and when Zhang Chao saw it, he immediately showed great surprise: "Damn, what are you going to do?" Ready to practice Dota hard at school? ”

Su Yifan grinned: "No, I'll look at some information." ”

Zhang Chao wanted to watch the content on the laptop, but Su Yifan blocked him a few times before giving up. On the laptop, dozens of PDF and TXT documents are distributed on the hard drive, and Su Yifan carefully flipped through them one by one with a reader.

As if he had found the greatest pleasure outside of textbooks and novels, Su Yifan had been concentrating on the computer before his early self-study.

Li Peiran pursed his lips beside him, very disdainful: "What are you pretending?" Isn't it just an Apple computer? ”

Hearing this, Su Yifan closed the computer and looked up at Li Peiran.

"Yes, all you have in your eyes is an Apple computer. In my eyes, what I want to learn is more important than the equipment I use. ”

Li Peiran somehow felt that Su Yifan's gaze was chilling, and in the face of the gaze that looked at him, Senior Squad Leader Li shrunk his neck and didn't speak again.

After Cheng Shuixin came to the classroom, Su Yifan greeted her and put away his laptop.

Cheng Shuixin was surprised: "Bring this to school, aren't you afraid of losing it?" ”

Su Yifan said calmly: "I'm afraid, but if I use it in a hurry, I can't take care of it so much." ”

"What's the urgency?" Cheng Shuixin, who is used to using the phone to surf the Internet, doesn't understand, "It's not like you to be so public." ”

Su Yifan suddenly realized that the beautiful woman in front of him, who was accustomed to all kinds of scenery, was the real person he should consult. But when she thought of this, Zhang Yao hadn't agreed yet, and she couldn't tell Cheng Shuixin too much, and she was a little hesitant.

After thinking about it, Su Yifan still decided to ask shamelessly.

"Is there time for noon? Ask you a question. ”

Cheng Shuixin was surprised again: "It's so formal...... What's so polite with me? Ask casually, answer whatever you ask. ”

The harmonious relationship between the two made Li Peiran grit his teeth when he looked at it from the side.

After school at noon, Su Yifan took Zhang Yao to eat first, and then hurried back to the vicinity of the school before class, and called Cheng Shuixin to make an appointment to meet him.

The two went to the coffee shop where Su Yifan had a membership card again, Cheng Shuixin liked it very much, and after ordering coffee, she sat on the warm sofa and stretched: "This place is really too expensive, I am reluctant to let you have a treat...... If there's anything going on, you just ask me. ”

Su Yifan pondered for a moment before speaking: "I want to ask you, if I plan to package a singer, is it the kind of person who is particularly introverted...... What should I do? ”

Cheng Shuixin was even more surprised: "Why did you suddenly think of this problem?" And the answer to this kind of question shouldn't be asked to me, right? ”

"It occurred to me."

Su Yifan concealed part of the truth, and told the truth partially, he didn't even realize that he actually started to do this.

"Can you elaborate a little bit?" Cheng Shuixin is quite interested in this topic.

Su Yifan thought for a while and said: "Actually, I want to ask you, how can I not let a singer be ruined by commercial operations, but also give full play to her characteristics and create commercial value." ”

Cheng Shuixin shook her head: "What you said is still too general." In fact, the current packaging cultivation road is very simple, of course, the premise is that there is money or strength. If you have money, you can just keep buying the list and publicizing it, and if you have the strength, you need to open up the situation through many affordable ways. Of course, if the singer is too ugly, it is inevitable to consider the psychological gap of the audience, and it is best to show the true face directly at the beginning, rather than engaging in those mysterious propaganda or something. ”

"What if a singer already has a certain reputation?"

"It depends on what level of fame you have and how you should use it." Cheng Shuixin stirred the coffee with a small spoon and replied unhurriedly, "Strictly speaking, as long as the commercial operation is carried out, there will definitely be a certain degree of damage to the singer himself." Unless the company can do it regardless of the cost, there are a lot of troubles...... Look at Xu Jiachun, even she has to greet Vice Mayor Wang with a smile. ”

Su Yifan smiled bitterly: "This is really a bad industry." ”

"There's no such thing as an industry that's not bad." Cheng Shuixin sighed, "But I have to admit that the bad part of the entertainment industry is a bit much." Now that the record industry has been completely crushed by electronic downloads, there is simply no better way for singers in China to make money for their companies other than commercial performances. ”

"Isn't there a market for the download itself?" Su Yifan already has a little understanding of this aspect, "CRBT download or something." ”

"You're talking about the old yellow calendar a few years ago." Cheng Shuixin didn't make fun of Su Yifan, but replied seriously, "Now that the mobile music market has begun to degenerate, the CRBT download itself has been replaced by MP3, which is becoming more and more convenient." The real business value is still in the entity. ”

"In other words, if you want to make a singer's songs truly create value, commercial performances are inevitable anyway?"

"Not necessarily." Cheng Shuixin did not completely hit Su Yifan, "There can be some top-notch existence in various modes, but judging from the current market where songs are vulgarized, if you want to succeed, you still need to rely on some kind of strength." ”

Su Yifan nodded thoughtfully: "Understood...... In other words, what you have learned is not really useful now? ”

"Almost, or the oldest and most primitive way." Cheng Shuixin said, "There are probably only two options now. When the propaganda position is divided by various media and networks, burning money is the safest way. ”

Su Yifan believed that Su Xiaoqing must have enough money to burn, but he didn't want that.

"Thank you, thank you, I really learned a lot today."

Cheng Shuixin smiled: "You haven't said anything about it, and you're suddenly interested in this." ”

"Playing Idol Master comes with the questions that come to mind." Su Yifan still said half-truthfully, "I just want to know if the methods and ideas cultivated in the game are really useful when applied to the real world." ”

Cheng Shuixin smiled when she heard this: "What is summarized in the game is actually correct, and the things to do are nothing more than those." It's just that there are big differences in strength, luck and methods, which leads to different results. ”

"Well, but there is also a high probability that such a person's life will be ruined." Su Yifan said, "There are many examples of celebrities inflated, being praised and killed, and being hacked to the point of mental breakdown. ”

"The road to the public always has to face these things." Cheng Shuixin actually sighed a little when she talked about this, after all, she was hacked many times in school, "There is no way to do it." ”

"This world is terrifying." Su Yifan shook his head with both hands holding the coffee cup.

"It's always been like this." Cheng Shuixin looked at him and said, "That's why we have to become stronger." ”
