Chapter 101 The amazing speed of fans (two-in-one)
The fourth day of vacation.
Liaocheng high-speed railway station.
In order to rehearse for their debut concert, Lin Zhixing and Song Ge were forced to embark on the return journey on the high-speed train.
"Train G1226 is about to enter the station. Passengers please stand outside the safety white line and wait..."
"There are a lot of people on weekends."
Lin Zhixing, who was at the end of the queue, looked at the dark carriage of the approaching train and suddenly felt that buying a ticket before going home was the right choice.
Song Ge stood next to him, looking at the seated ticket in his hand, then at the bag of snacks in his pocket, and chuckled.
"Follow me!"
Lin Zhixing dragged the suitcase with his left hand, grabbed her hand with his right hand, and slowly moved forward.
"okay."
Song Ge's body tensed up a little, but after feeling the warmth of his palm, he gradually relaxed again.
As the queue moved forward little by little, she saw the passengers getting off the bus looking at her and him as if they were a couple, and the arc of the lips covered by the mask widened a bit.
The two people slowly squeezed onto the train and arrived at the double seat of 09DF.
"Go in, sit down, and give me your backpack."
"okay."
Song Ge looked at Lin Zhixing, who was sitting next to him and adjusting his seat after putting away his luggage, and felt happy in his heart.
I used to envy couples sitting together, talking, laughing, and eating and drinking together. When I was riding in a car, I would often sit lonely with my knees on the suitcase and my backpack in my arms.
But now, what she is experiencing is what she once envied.
How could you not be happy!
The sky outside the window is extremely blue!
"call……"
Contrary to Song Ge, Lin Zhixing, who had adjusted his seat, did not have the pleasure of traveling. Instead, he would lean on the back of the chair, close his eyes and think about work.
Tickets for the debut concert will be on sale at noon today. As the champion, I have 9,000 tickets. I don’t know if the tickets will sell well. What if some of the remaining tickets cannot be sold? Will the votes be evenly distributed among the other three groups?
I'm just having random thoughts...
【Ding! 】
[Detecting the host makes the partner gain a "happy" mood, and the "popularity" proficiency is increased by 2 points! 】
[Current: Popular B (27/50). 】
Hearing the system prompt, Lin Zhixing opened his eyes and met Song Ge, who was turning the handle of the middle seat. He suddenly remembered something else, "Geve, have you practiced the Mongolian I asked you to practice?"
Song Ge nodded, "I practiced hard and can sing it proficiently. I sang it to my grandma and she said it sounded good."
"That's good, that's good."
Lin Zhixing breathed a sigh of relief. He believed that she had a strong language learning ability and mastering this song was just a matter of practice.
The top four songs for the debut concert have been voted out, and "Above the Moon", which he had not sung in its entirety, was ranked fourth, which was very surprising to him.
The idea of releasing an album has always been in the plan, and each of the ten songs performed in "The Birth of a Group" is very important.
"Above the Moon" was not fully sung, which was a knot in my mind.
At first, I was in a hurry, and I was afraid that if I didn't learn well, it would be counterproductive. My own abilities were also very bad, so I omitted many of my rap lines, and I always wanted to make up a complete version.
Later, the system rewarded me with a symphony version of "Above the Moon", and I wanted to focus on promoting this song. This opportunity for a debut concert is very important.
Hope it can surprise the audience!
"Why are you pulling it? Does it feel uncomfortable to put your arms on it?"
Lin Zhixing pointed to the seat handle in the middle.
"Um."
Song Ge ducked his eyes and nodded, "It feels a bit restrained."
"All right."
Lin Zhixing raised his hand to look at the time and patted his left shoulder, "There are still nearly four hours until we get off the bus. If you get tired, just lean on my shoulder and make it comfortable as you like!"
"Uh-huh."
Song Ge nodded, then held his cheek with one hand and looked at the scenery outside the window.
ten minutes later……
"Know what you do."
Song Ge suddenly turned sideways, rubbed his eyes, and whispered: "I didn't get a good rest last night..."
Lin Zhixing looked at her with heavy eyelids, pursed her lips and smiled, moved inside and raised her shoulders.
"Um."
Song Ge gently put his hand on his shoulder, blinked his heavy eyelids quickly a few times, and slowly closed them.
The train keeps going south, keeps going south.
Where they couldn't see each other, the corners of their mouths were curved.
…
…
10:58 am.
In the office of the "Birth of a Group" program team.
Ji Lei and several staff members were staring at the computer screen together.
There are still two minutes left, at eleven o'clock sharp, the first wave of tickets for the debut concert will be released.
"Director Ji, how long do you think it will take for this first wave of tickets to be sold out?"
"Um……"
Ji Lei rubbed his chin, thought for a moment and said, "It depends on whether the fans of Lang Cainnv Mao and Mulan Brothers can help. I estimate that it will take between half an hour and an hour."
"It takes so long?"
The staff member who had just asked out of curiosity was surprised after hearing this.
The person next to me explained: "They are not celebrities. This time is too normal. Director Ji's estimation of this time took into account the popularity of the show and the cheap ticket price. How many celebrity concerts have discounted tickets?" Can’t sell it!”
“Some people just think it’s fun to watch them sing, but they don’t go as far as to spend money on them!”
"That makes sense."
Ji Lei raised his hand to signal them to be quiet. At the same time, the minute hand of the wall clock pointed to the number 12.
One minute later.
Of the 2,000 tickets for The Talented Man and the Beautiful Woman, there are more than 1,500 left.
The Mulan brothers had more than 2,400 tickets left out of 3,000.
Ji Lei and several staff behind him were dumbfounded. They had not expected this speed. At the current speed, it would take less than twenty minutes to sell out everything.
But as time passed, they gradually became disappointed.
Ten minutes later, there were less than 800 votes left for Lang Cai Nv Mao and less than 1,300 votes for Mulan Brothers. The speed became dozens and dozens of times a minute.
Ji Lei looked away from the computer screen and lit a cigarette.
I also understood it now. At first, some viewers were afraid that the tickets would be sold out, so they stayed on time to buy them. Later, they discovered that there was no need to grab tickets at all, and they all honestly waited for their idols to issue tickets, so the speed naturally slowed down.
"It may not be sold out by the second wave at 12 o'clock!"
"Yeah, but it's good if they can all be sold out. I wonder who will sell out the tickets for Sunshine Youth League or Fengqi Wutong first at 12 o'clock?"
"I think Sunshine Youth League sold out their tickets first. Female fans are so fanatical, and their ticket base is even smaller."
"I think so, and there are many middle-aged and elderly fans of Fengqi Wutong. They have to ask for help to buy tickets online. The tickets of Sunshine Youth League must be sold out first!"
Listen to the conversation between the two staff members behind you.
Ji Lei took a puff of the cigarette, and when he spit it out, he pursed his lips and smiled.
It's too superficial to think about it. Don't they bring us too many surprises?
…
…
"Oh my god, I've been fooled!"
"My 300 yuan!"
In a rental apartment, Xiao Song, a female fan of Fengqi Wutong, looked at the payment page and her blood pressure rose.
Thie Huan, who was just discussing in the Fengqi Wutong fan group, said that because the price is cheap, it is recommended to buy it first, regardless of whose ticket it is, because it is easy to get the ticket late.
It turned out that after buying the tickets, it was not the case at all. There were still 40 minutes left in the past. Xiao Song was very angry at being deceived and poked the screen with his lips.
[Xiao Song]: I believe your lies, this ticket is not popular at all. As a fan of Brother Oh, wouldn’t I be cheating by buying a ticket for a talented and beautiful girl?
[Oh Brother Ye’s True Fan]: Hahaha, luckily I didn’t watch the group just now, otherwise I would have cheated too.
[Tauren Chief]: I am a fan of Fengqi Wutong, but I bought a ticket for Mulan Brothers and listened to them singing in other camps. I just like this Tauren feeling.
"Why!"
Xiao Song sighed softly and put down his mobile phone. He had already bought the tickets and had no choice but to admit it.
…
…
11:58 p.m.
Ji Lei put down the lunch box in his hand, took out a tissue and wiped his mouth.
There are currently 150 tickets left for The Talented Girl and 300 tickets for the Mulan Brothers, and the second wave of tickets is about to go on sale.
I just made a bet with two staff members, Xiao Wang and Xiao Li, who support the Sunshine Youth League to sell out the tickets first. Based on the popularity of their two fans, it is estimated that the winner will be announced soon.
three.
two.
one.
As the hands turn, the ticket grabbing begins.
Just one minute.
Sunshine Youth League sold 2,000 tickets, while Fengqi Wutong sold 3,500 tickets...
"Holy shit, what speed is this?"
Xiao Wang and Xiao Li looked at each other, and their hearts suddenly went cold. If this trend continues, they will lose.
Ji Lei was so excited that he patted the table, "Look, this is called grabbing tickets!"
Five minutes have passed...
Sunshine Youth League has less than 2,000 tickets left, and Fengqi Wutong has 3,200 tickets left.
Ji Lei stared at the screen. It was hard to say who would win and who would lose in this meeting.
Nine minutes have passed...
Fengqi Wutong has 500 tickets left, and Sunshine Youth League has 600 tickets left, achieving a lead in speed!
Seeing that there was no hope of reversal, Xiao Wang and Xiao Li touched their wallets in their pockets. Their flesh ached so much that they decided to jointly buy a pack of high-end cigarettes for Ji Lei.
Just after ten minutes, all the tickets for Fengqi Wutong were sold out. After another two minutes, the tickets for Sunshine Youth League were also sold out. Then all the remaining tickets for Lang Cainü Mao and Mulan Brothers were sold out!
Ji Lei looked at the "four zeros" on the computer screen and smiled from ear to ear. He turned around and said, "You can just put the cigarette on my desk tomorrow."
After speaking, he turned back and his eyes fell on the photo frame on the desk. Inside was a photo of Lin Zhixing and Song Ge raising the trophy.
"Miracles do exist for you!"
…
…
【Fengqi Wutong Fans Group】
[Niutou Chief]: This wave of ticket grabbing is so fierce, the tickets for Fengqi Wutong were sold out in ten minutes!
[Oh Brother Ye is a true fan]: I was glad that I didn’t watch the group before, but now I regret that I didn’t watch the group just now. I’m so crazy that I didn’t get the tickets!
[Dreamlike]: @Xiao Song, are the tickets for sale? I'll pay you 500!
[Nutau Chief]: Don’t sell him. If you want to see their concerts in the future, you can’t afford the price!
"Hahaha!"
Xiao Song looked at the messages in the chat group, and the gloom just now disappeared. She put down her phone and slowly uttered two words with a smile.
"Oh yeah!"
…
…
"Brother Lin! I miss you so much!"
"Pigeon!"
"You guys really came to pick me up!"
As soon as Lin Zhixing and Song Ge left the station, they met Dong Chen and Ji Yu who came to pick them up.
Dong Chen first gave Lin Zhixing a hug, and then took the initiative to take the suitcase. "You must keep your word. The station is not far from the hotel."
"Pigeon, what do you think this is?"
Ji Yu smiled and took out her mobile phone from her pocket, found a screenshot and showed it to Song Ge.
""The Birth of the Group" Fengqi Wutong Zone..."
After Song Ge read this, he looked up with a smile and asked, "Have you two bought tickets for your debut concert?"
Ji Yu smiled and nodded, "Ah, are you flattering enough?"
Dong Chen freed his hand, smiled and put his arm around Lin Zhixing's shoulders, "Brother Lin, let's grab some to buy, for fear that we won't be able to grab it if it's too late! Why don't you treat us to a meal?"
Lin Zhixing nodded, and had planned to treat him before going home, "I didn't say treat you to dinner, let's celebrate the establishment of our studio!"
"Thank you, Brother Lin. You have no idea how popular you are. All 9,000 tickets were sold out in ten minutes!"
"ten minutes?"
Lin Zhixing was a little unbelievable when he heard this number.
Dong Chen affirmed: "Of course it's true. If you don't believe me, just check Weibo for a while!"
…
The four of them got into a taxi and were on their way to the hotel.
Lin Zhixing opened Weibo curiously, and there were really many fans leaving messages for him.
"Oh Brother Ye, I didn't get a ticket. I'm so sad. I've bought all the concert equipment..."
"I didn't expect it to be sold out in ten minutes. I spent a thousand dollars to buy a ticket from a scalper."
"I didn't get a ticket and I'm relatively poor. I plan to listen to you singing outside the venue!"
"Plus one, I'll go to the sidelines to listen too!"
After seeing this comment, Lin Zhixing couldn't help but think of the Mayday concert. Too many fans didn't buy tickets and chose to listen outside the venue.
Ashin's shout directly interacted with the audience outside the venue, and the effect was extremely shocking.
However, with the current number of fans, it is impossible to do this. However, some audience members said they were willing to come outside the venue to listen without tickets, and Lin Zhixing was very happy.
expect!
…
…
Ticket sale night.
Daxing Square Dance Activity Center.
"President, there are many old sisters among us who have not bought tickets. It may be difficult for us to sing together."
"It's noon when I grab tickets, and the children are at work. I don't know how to do it even if I'm in a hurry!"
President Chen Jinnan looked at the old sisters complaining to herself and wanted to solve the problem but couldn't. How could she afford all the scalpers' tickets?
The song "Above the Moon" was voted for by them. They originally wanted to have a chorus for the senior citizens group, but judging from the current situation, the plan was ruined.
"Do you think this will work?"
Chen Jinnan suddenly had an idea, "Sisters who have tickets can go and watch as usual. Sisters who don't have tickets, let's go outside the Coliseum and listen to the accompaniment in the stadium. Let's have a square dance with a thousand people." ?”
"This is a great idea, I agree!"
"I agree too. I don't even want to go in and listen to what you said!"
"Okay, then it's decided!"
An amazing interaction inside and outside the concert venue is about to take place!
