Shen Xi opened the door and saw a group of people standing outside.
Gu Yang was the first to speak. "Teacher Xixi, you've received Director Su's message, right? What do you think about Su Ruowan's matter?"
They had just discussed that as long as Teacher Xixi quit, they would take the risk of breaching the contract and resign as well. They couldn't afford to stay on this show!
As musicians in the industry, their attitude towards a contestant who had been exposed for plagiarism was very important. They had to clearly express their stand and not be vague.
The program team was being too inhumane. She was just a contestant. Even if she was the most popular contestant, even if she had always performed well, they couldn't just brush her off by saying that she was young and insensible and would correct her mistakes. Wasn't this too light and irresponsible? By doing this, where did they place the people who had worked so hard to create original works?
Teacher Xixi was undoubtedly the most outstanding and famous original musician in the industry today. As an original musician, she would definitely understand the hardships of an original musician.
"No opinion," Shen Xi answered calmly.
Pfft!
The group of people collectively vomited blood. What did she mean by no opinion? How could she not have any opinion? She was clearly the one who saw through Su Ruowan's plagiarism and pointed it out in front of everyone. Why did she not have any opinion now?
Gu Yang thought that Teacher Xixi was definitely the kind of person who hated evil and despised thieves who stole other people's hard work. However, after hearing her words, he actually didn't know what to say for a moment.
After being stunned for a moment, Xia Mi felt that it was quite normal. This was Teacher Xixi. She just did things based on facts. As for the reactions and responses after being exposed, she probably didn't care.
"Teacher Xixi, will you still participate in the show?" He Suye asked, unwilling to give up.
Shen Xi nodded. "I have a contract."
Pfft!
The group of people was stumped again. Yes, a contract. It had to be a contract. This was very Teacher Xixi. Perhaps they shouldn't have come over to ask such a silly question.
"Teacher Xixi, do you think the production team will be responsible to the other trainees, the fans, the audience, and us?" Fang Yao also asked. She was too ashamed to participate in the show now.
After all, she had expressed her sincere admiration and love for Su Ruowan on the show. She had also given Su Ruowan a lot of advice on the arrangement and dance.
Gu Yang was a little embarrassed. Why did he feel that they were like a group of gossip reporters, surrounding Teacher Xixi and asking her all sorts of questions? It was really a little boring.
"It has nothing to do with me." After Shen Xi finished speaking, she looked at them and said, "I want to rest."
The few of them looked at each other. In the end, it was Gu Yang who spoke. He smiled and said, "Then, Teacher Xixi, are you sure you want to continue participating in the show?"
Shen Xi nodded and slammed the door shut.
The few of them looked at each other again and saw the same helplessness and sigh on each other's faces. They couldn't get any results from Teacher Xixi.
Xia Mi expressed his opinion. "I don't think we should withdraw from the show so hastily. As teachers, we are not only Su Ruowan's teachers, and we don't only have to be responsible for her. We have to be responsible for all the trainees."
Gu Yang nodded. "I agree."
He Suye also nodded. "I think we were too impatient. We have to learn more from Teacher Xixi. She doesn't feel joy from external gains or sadness. She is indifferent to favor or disgrace. This is the true state."
Fang Yao rolled her eyes at him. "Teacher Xixi can't hear you flattering her here."
He Suye glanced at her. "I think that as Su Ruowan's teacher, you should write a statement to express your position."
Gu Yang: "All of us have to post on Weibo. Let's wait and see what the show says tomorrow. After all, Su Ruowan is our student."
Who would have thought that participating in a talent show could cause such a big commotion? Ordinary contestants would definitely have been scolded and withdrawn from the show.
However, Su Ruowan was born into a family in the entertainment industry. Her parents were movie stars, her second brother was a famous singer, and her second brother was a slightly famous actor. Her company was also Tianheng Entertainment, which had been established for the longest time in the entertainment industry. In the face of public opinion and scandals, she was best at crisis PR. When he saw the press conference, he felt that things weren't that simple.
Sure enough, after the press conference, the show sent news that Su Ruowan wouldn't withdraw from the show and would continue to participate in the show. This was a very courageous action in the eyes of outsiders, and it would definitely gain the support of many brainless fans.
At nine o 'clock the next morning, the teachers gathered in the lounge.
The executive director, Su Botao, had been waiting for them since eight o 'clock. He thought that persuading the teachers to continue participating in the show would be the biggest responsibility on his shoulders. He was so worried that he couldn't sleep the entire night and prepared several drafts. Unexpectedly, it didn't take much effort and the teachers didn't say that they wanted to withdraw from the show.
When the discussion ended, Gu Yang asked, "Director Su, will Teacher Xixi participate in the finals?"
Teacher Xixi had said so confidently yesterday. Could it be that she wouldn't participate in the finals at all? If that was the case, they would be very embarrassed.
"Yes, but Teacher Xixi will only come over before the filming." Su Botao knew very well what they meant by asking this.
Teacher Xixi was the one who caused this plagiarism incident. She ignored fairness and justice and was realistic. Netizens regarded her as a god-level scene and praised her. Her fans increased overnight.
Now, Teacher Xixi's popularity was higher than all the other trainees combined. If there was a vote for her, she would definitely crush the other trainees and get the center position.
If Teacher Xixi participated in the finals, everything would be fine. The audience would be very tolerant because of her presence and feel that they could see the most realistic scene with her in the show.
If she didn't participate, the show would be questioned like never before.
She gave people the impression that she was cold and taciturn, but her comments hit the nail on the head. Before this, although many people liked her, more people, such as the sensitive fans of the contestants who were criticized by her, thought that she was just pretending and that it was all part of the script.
However, after this, her image immediately improved and she became the representative of integrity. Even the fans who were trying to criticize her couldn't bring themselves to criticize her and became her fans.
When she said the truth seriously, the show's team and the coaches' panic were all captured by the camera. It could prove that she had indeed given a fair and impartial comment after watching the stage. She did not go through any rehearsals and did not give the most realistic comments based on the script.
Su Botao was a little glad that Teacher Xixi was a cold person who was unmoved by external factors. If it were other musicians in the industry, they might have just quit and the show would be in big trouble.
Now that she was in charge, everyone who wanted to question her could shut up.
The other coaches also heaved a sigh of relief when they heard that Teacher Xixi would be in charge. With Teacher Xixi around, they felt like they had a backbone. They had never felt this way before when they participated in other shows.
A person like Teacher Xixi was really a very reassuring presence.
The finals would be held a week later.
During this week, Su Ruowan's plagiarism incident was still fermenting. However, many of her fans had already been bombarded by all kinds of brainwashing and had once again made their stance firm.
Bitter comments such as "Wanwan only has us left", "Let's go down together", "Go Wanwan, you still have us", and so on began to spread among the fan groups. They were written with such sincerity that it made people cry.
Occasionally, when Shen Xi had nothing to do, she would join in the fun and read those words. She really enjoyed the abuse of fans in the entertainment industry.
Small fans were easily brainwashed and controlled. As a little flower of the motherland, it was better for them to study hard at a young age. Their IQ was not even fully developed yet, so why were they chasing after celebrities?
However, no matter what, the brainwashing and abuse of fans finally showed their effects. Su Ruowan's brainless fans were unprecedentedly enthusiastic. They spent money, time, and energy to push her votes all the way to seventh place.
After the plagiarism incident, Su Ruowan's votes dropped to 15th place, which was the last place. The production team gave her a chance to turn over a new leaf. Based on her previous results, they did not eliminate her and allowed her to participate in the finals as the 15th auditing student.
On the day of the finals, Su Ruowan's fans were also the most active and driven. They carried a persecutory paranoia that said, "The whole world wants to harm my Wanwan, and I'm the only one left of my Wanwan." They ignored the disdain and mockery from other fans and entered the finals venue.
When Shen Xi entered the venue, she was very low-key. When she glanced at Su Ruowan's fans, she shook her head and sighed deeply. In this world, she could cure any illness, but this kind of mental illness was not easy to cure.
The evidence was right in front of them. Only these brainless fans would not believe it. Speaking of which, they were quite pitiful. They had been deceived to this extent, but they were still cheering. It was also a kind of state.
The finals were held in the stadium. There was a sea of people at the entrance. They were all there to cheer for their baby.
The show was not Su Ruowan's alone show. The majority of the audience were still rational. They would not give up on watching the entire show just because Su Ruowan was alone. Many people also wanted to see how Su Ruowan would end up. They followed the show!
After Shen Xi entered the venue through the VIP passageway, she did not go directly to the coaches' lounge. Instead, she wandered to the props department. After watching the schedule of the show, she naturally knew that after today's finals ended, there would be an interactive segment. The girls who had officially debuted as a group would play a little game with their lucky fans.
One of the segments was to guess the lyrics. If the wrong answer was given, the person would be hit on the head by a specially made water ball filled with water. The water ball would naturally break.
She took out a water ball that she had prepared in advance. She replaced the water ball with the number "7" written on it and pasted the number "7" on the new water ball.
