"Canvassing is one thing. What's more, you don't get enough votes from your human audience. After saying this, Amano quickly flipped to the next page of the document as if he was afraid that Ziyin would interject, "You see, this is the statistics of users who visit the voting page from other countries. The ratio of users from the Alliance to those from the Empire is about 3:1. That is to say, out of every 4 foreign users, 3 are from the United Human Alliance, and 1 is from the Qingyun Empire. ”

A data table with a lot of information was displayed on the screen, and Nobuo Amano pointed to one of the line charts: "In our kingdom, the ratio of Tsubasa to human users can basically reach 1:1, but all the users of the alliance are humans, and the empire is all Tsubasa people. All of them – 99.99%. Almost all of the Empire's users voted for your new wing, and this statistic is in line with common sense; As for the alliance, it is true that most of them voted for Song Nanhe, but a quarter of the users voted for Guanyueling. That is to say - they may have logged on to the website in order to vote for singers from their own country, but after watching the videos of all the singers, they defected and voted for the sweet young lady. ”

The four members of the "......" New Wing Band all showed embarrassed looks.

"Little, little sister!?" Zi Yin relieved herself from her embarrassment, "She has made up like this, can you still tell that she is a little sister and not a little aunt!?" ”

"Zi Yin ......" Gu Yang hurriedly stopped him, "Makeup is also part of the performance. ”

"Little aunt...... Aha......" Virgil laughed as he lay on the table.

This time it was Amano's turn Nobuo's expression froze.

But this band just doesn't play according to common sense anyway. Amano didn't care, and continued, "I can show you the voting ratio again - in the voting composition of the Moon Gazetteer, human users account for more than 70%; And yours have less than 40% human users. ”

"Because human users love little aunts...... Ah, no...... Little sister!? Zi Yin said quickly.

"Ahahahaha......" Virgil had just gotten up from the table and was laughing again.

"Can you stop struggling with a title?" Gu Yang glanced at the two guys, turned his head to look at Amano and asked, "So humans do like that kind of singer who looks delicious?" ”

Very...... Delicious...... it? Amano felt sweat on his forehead again, took a tissue from the edge of the table to wipe it, and said, "Forget it...... Sort of...... In short, humans are more pragmatic. Compared to the goddess who is high, she still likes a weak and beautiful little girl. ”

"Huh...... There is no race of unity of faith. This time, Virgil also talked a lot, and said with deep discrimination against humans, "Chromophobia." ”

"Virgil, don't follow the purple cause." Gu Yang was not very happy and reprimanded his companion. Turning to Nobuo Amano, he said, "We don't know much about human audiences, that's a fact. So what's next? After the online voting, is it time to enter the formal selection process? ”

"Yes." Amano pressed the remote control, and the content displayed on the screen changed again, and a calendar appeared, "Today is Wednesday, July 5th. Starting from this Saturday, for 6 consecutive weeks, we will broadcast the interview program of 'Hengyin Newcomer Award' live on the Internet and TV stations. Two groups of singers are interviewed in each episode. ”

After saying this, the screen refreshed, and the schedule of the contestants to participate in the talk show appeared on the screen.

Amano continued, "In the first five episodes of the live interview, the top five candidates will be recorded. The sixth recording ranked the sixth and seventh place contestants. The recording order is basically from fifth to first. However, for the sake of ornamentation, we have slightly adjusted the arrangement. Everybody, look at the screen—"

July 8, Full Force Boys; Heidi Combo

July 15, the moon is watching; New Wing Band

July 22, Song Nanhe; Full Strength Boy

July 29, Heidi Combination; Moongazing

August 5, New Wings; Song Nanhe

Aug. 12, Aikong; Flora

"Two groups of candidates will be invited for each episode, and the program will include two parts: Q&A and singing. The top five are the officially shortlisted contestants, so each group has two chances to participate in the show; The sixth and seventh places should be considered barely shortlisted, and the exposure they get is relatively small. Amano added.

Gu Yang quickly finished reading the content on the screen and asked, "If it is according to the voting results...... Except for us and Guanyueling's order of appearance, the others haven't changed, right? ”

"Yes."

"Why?"

"Because we want to be as fair as possible." Amano smiled pointedly, "As I said just now, the backend has used a program to exclude all applicants who use ticket swiping software to cheat, but there is no way to manually swipe tickets. And the 'ribbon classroom' behind Guanyueling - Gu Yang you must know - is a professional institution for cultivating idol artists. So if it's them, there is a way to improve the singer's ranking by manually swiping tickets. ”

"What!?" Ziyin almost jumped up, "It's not just canvassing, they dare to swipe votes!?" ”

"Because they're going to eat on it." Gu Yang patted him on the shoulder reasonably, "The 'Ribbon Classroom' is not a non-profit organization, but a serious business educational institution. Unlike our amateur group, which gathers purely by interest, if one or two artists don't become popular every year, that organization will collectively drink the northwest wind. Nature does everything. ”

"It's a pity that they found the wrong publisher." Amano spread his hands, "Although the manual ticket swiping data can be processed very naturally, and they also have experience in this area, but in front of our old producers and producers who have seen I don't know how many singers, the traces of ticket swiping are as obvious as ice floating on Coke." In order not to disrupt the order of the competition, in the online voting stage, we did not propose a punishment for Guanyue Ling - it is one thing to be able to see the manual swiping of votes, and it is another thing to find evidence. ”

"So you've taken a different approach — to make her lose some of her advantage while the show is being recorded." Gu Yang said with understanding, "The live broadcast in two weeks will leave a very important first impression on all listeners, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is an episode that will decide the fate of the band." Having Guanyue Ling play before us will buy us some time to think about countermeasures. In addition to our lead singer...... In a sense, you can indeed become the fierce rival of that sweet singer, right? The appearance is equal, but the performance has chosen a completely different form. There will be a brutal split......"

"Not bad. That's what we're expecting internally. Amano nodded, "After all the live interviews are over, the total score will be calculated based on the ratings of the on-site users, as well as the ratings of our Hengyin's producers and producer groups." The top three in total will enter the final for two weeks, and the champion, runner-up and third place will be selected. Of course, the champion will become a new singer who signed a release with us through the 'Hengyin Newcomer Award' this year, and the runner-up and third runner-up will be released even if they are not released through Hengxin, there must be very good publishers who will find these two groups of singers. ”

"Understood. What is the format of the finals? Gu Yang asked.

"The format has been decided. However, in order not to distract you during the live interview, and to bring enough impact when the format is announced, the company asked us not to disclose the format of the finals to anyone until the final episode of the live show was recorded. ”

"I see."

“…… Thank you for your understanding. ”

"It should."

"Well, that's all I have to say for today." Nobuo Amano turned off the projection equipment, "For all of you, July 15th is the day of the first battle. That's 10 days to go. The specific arrangement is for me to contact Guyang one-line. Do you still have questions? ”

……

Ten minutes later, the New Wings stood up and left the room.

"It's coming, it's coming!" I don't know who shouted in the work area.

Miss Katie, who was pedaling on more than a dozen centimeters of heels, rushed over here with small steps, and when she was quite far away, she beckoned: "Wait a minute! ”

The eight people led by Gu Yang stopped at the door of the conference room.

Katie held the autograph plate as thick as a small book, and stopped in front of the captain with a smile on her face: "Gu Yang, my colleagues in the department here want the autographs of your band members, I don't know if I can ...... it."

"Cut- I was still looking high up just now, and I went out and slammed the door......" Ziyin muttered quietly.

Virgil quietly touched him with his elbow, signaling that the situation should be handled by Gu Yang.

"Yes." Gu Yang was thinking about how to deal with next week's live interview, and he didn't care about competing with Katie at all, so he quickly took the pen.

Katie was already very short, and she still couldn't reach Gu Yang's shoulders with more than ten centimeters of high heels. Seeing him pick up the pen, he immediately leaned over like a little follower and handed the signed plates up one by one, looking like a dog's leg.

Zi Yin can't stand it anymore - how can this woman turn her face faster than a book? It's uncomfortable to look at.

Gu Yang seemed to be much more patient than him, and asked while signing, "Can I sign it?" ”

Katie blushed and replied, "My colleague hopes that all the members of the band can sign ......"

"Hmm." Gu Yang handed the signed board and pen to Virgil, "You guys sign it too." ”

"Can I not sign it?" Ziyin pouted.

"Don't waste time." Gu Yang couldn't help but say, "I'll leave after signing, and I have to pick out the clothes for the interview before the weekend." ”

The captain's reminder, Zi Yin thought that the performance costume he had prepared before had already been scrapped along with the crash, and he was locked up in the Wind Club for two days and couldn't go shopping in the city, and now he was wearing casual clothes that he took from home temporarily. So he had to obediently take the signed version and write his name in a flying manner.

"Just ...... I'm sorry...... It's me who is too impulsive. Katie took advantage of the ease of the atmosphere to apologize.

However, the four members of the band were busy signing autographs, and no one paid attention to her at all. The attendants and servants behind all thought she was air and didn't even look at her.

The atmosphere froze there for a while.

Gu Yang put away the board with his name and handed it back, and there was no half temperature in his tone: "Let's go." ”

"Uh-huh, thank you." Katie smirked, "Go slowly." ”

The band began to walk forward again, and Nobuo Amano followed them to see the guests out, passing by Katie's side and nodding to her, in exchange for the latter rolling his eyes.

When he returned to the Windwind Society from the Hengyin headquarters, the president, Irina, also returned from the Rem Fortress on the border of the kingdom and asked Ziin to meet him at the president's office.

"Then I'll deal with my mom first." Zi Yin finished speaking and left.

The lockdown has not been lifted yet, and now even if you want to go around the city of Wangcheng, there is no way, so everyone's shopping plan can only be put on hold until Ziyin comes back to discuss.

Eliza then went with Virgil to the underground piano room - the new song had been written, and the lyrics had not yet been written. According to Virgil's custom, when writing lyrics, they should be adjusted to match the singer's singing voice. So it's okay for them to be content – there's a soundproof room where they can sit down and study the lyrics.

Guyang, on the other hand, found a computer in the smoking area to surf the Internet.

When I opened the mailbox, several emails from Nobuo Amano had been sent one after another—the contract agreement with Hengyin, the confidentiality clause of the newcomer award, and the process arrangement of the talk show......

In the music industry, eight out of ten people don't like to read contracts.

People who are dealing with musical instruments and sheet music every day with their eyes open and closed, once they sit in front of the computer and stare at tens of thousands of words in black and white...... How to ...... Party B', the brain began to buzz, which is a common situation in the industry. What's more, the other party is an industry benchmark like Hengyin, and the average singer will feel "You don't need to read the contract" when dealing with this kind of company, right? The other party is a big business ......", and as a result, countless singers are victimized by the overlord clauses of various record companies every year......

However, Gu Yang is obviously not among them. On weekdays, the hands are used to play the piano and pluck the strings, and when they hit the keyboard, they are also unambiguous. He lit a cigarette, opened the terms of the agreement sent by the other party, and revised it as he read it......

Irina. Ms. Kleiman wore a lightweight, long-sleeved shirt today. Through the open neckline, you can see a string of richly colored beads around the neck. The black suit skirt is well-cut, and the leather shoes with black and gold heels tightly wrap around the feet. This flashy but not luxurious outfit exudes an expensive atmosphere with every stitch and thread......

Zi Yin stood in front of her, and felt an unusual sense of oppression coming over her face.

"Ziyin, I suggest you return to China as soon as possible." Irina said straight to the point.

"Huh?" Zi Yin thought she had misheard, "Aren't I in the country now?" ”

"I mean transfer back. Don't go to the empire anymore. ”

"Why?" Zi Yin was confused, "What did you hear about when you went to Rem Fortress today?" ”

"I've heard a lot. But when it comes to military secrets, you don't have the right to know most of the contents. Irina's slender willow eyebrows furrowed slightly, "For the fighter that shot you down, the wreckage search has been terminated. According to the military report, someone did clean up the scene before the investigation began, and in a professional manner. I'm afraid you'll be in danger again when you go back. ”

"Will you say okay when you go back? What if you find out something new in the past two days? Zi Yin sighed, "Speaking of the current terrorist organization...... How is it more professional than the military? ”

"The identity of the attackers is not yet known, and it cannot be determined that it is a terrorist organization." Irina sighed, "But since the other party has already dealt with the aftermath, it means that he has no intention of pursuing you again." I'll tell Sheila in a moment, lift your lockdown first. ”

"Yay!" Zi Yin waved his fist happily, "I didn't expect it to be said by Gu Yang!" ”

"Your bandleader is excellent. I heard that his grandfather was an air force general in the Empire? ”

"I heard it is...... What's wrong? ”

"Nothing." The president stopped talking, and then changed the topic without warning, "What about the next work arrangement over there over there?" ”

"Oh, this...... After that, it was the live interview show of the Hengyin Newcomer Award......" Ziyin broke his fingers and explained the date, arrangement, and competitor information of the interview, and then added, "Anyway, we are about to be on TV!" Awesome! ”

"Hmm...... It's my son, after all. Although Irina was complimentary, there was a bit of loneliness on her face.

"It's not in vain that I've been incognito for so many years...... "Ziyinren sighed loudly, "In order to avoid becoming famous as your son, I have been playing the piano desperately every day......"

Irina laughed out loud: "It seems that you still like your band?" ”

"Of course!" Zi Yin puffed out her chest proudly.

"Then let's do it." Irina watched as his gaze finally became gentle, "Work hard and don't leave regrets." ”

"A must!"

Five minutes later, watching her son leave her office, Irina turned on an anti-tracking dialer with the video headset on her headset. When the number was broadcast, her expression suddenly became extremely cold.

The phone rang a lot before it was picked up.

A male voice that couldn't be more normal said on the phone: "This is the Dadaoqian Law Firm. ”

"Sophistry." Irina's voice also became as cold as her expression, revealing a chill in the forest, and said word by word, "I'm Irina." ”
