The Whole Entertainment Circle is Waiting For My C-Debut

C3: The Fairy and the Baby

As the first female idol selection program in the country, 'Idol New Force' received extensive promotion even before its broadcast, with collaboration from major platforms like Ibis Factory Film, Television, and Music. After the first episode aired, fans quickly identified their favorite idols among the hundred trainees, sparking popularity battles.

Indeed, when fans support their idols by voting, it creates an outlet for their unrestrained passion. Among these, the most intriguing act might be the S&S girl group, who ranked tenth and seventeenth respectively. They rose to fame due to their extremely entertaining and hilarious performance on the show.

Perhaps it's due to fans following their idols, but the promotional tactics used by "Harmonious Aunts" to debut are different from others.

"Save these kids! If our idols don't debut, the factory will go bankrupt and they'll have to return home to inherit the closing-down MSG factory as factory managers."

"Sisters! Let's rescue the factory heiress and save the future of an entire factory! Save the laid-off employees and their families! I'll say it again. This isn't just voting, this is charity! [Crying face with a dog nose!]"

"The reason why I vote for the factory heiress is simple: my whole family loves eating Magical MSG! I don't want it to disappear from the supermarket shelves."

Additionally, netizens edited spoof videos and uploaded them to the small video platform. They combined scenes from well-known comedy movies in a creative way:

Fan: "Next, I'm going to introduce this person, don't be afraid."

Police Officer A: "We're the police, we're not afraid."

Fan: "Today on 'Idol New Power,' I've fallen for a private enterprise factory owner... She's a second-generation rich girl, her family runs an MSG factory, though it's about to go bankrupt, she can also write songs..."

Police Officer A: "You're talking about this second-generation rich... Is she good-looking?"

Fan: "It's not about whether she's good-looking or not, she's really unique, the kind that can make you burst into laughter... Her songs are special, her way of speaking is interesting... Hey, I've endured your laughter for a while now, you've been laughing at me the whole time!"

Police Officer B: "Sorry, I thought about the scene where the 'Second Aunts' were being judged."

Police Officer A: "I thought about the scene with the 'Second Aunts' too."

Police Officer B: "Fan, hello, we are professionals. No matter how funny it is, we won't laugh... unless we can't hold it in!"

...

Within two hours of uploading the video, the barrage of comments was already covered with "haha hahaha red hot" overlays, exceeding twenty thousand, and it was reposted by various marketing accounts, instantly making it to the front page. Even the video uploader themselves were pleasantly surprised.

In a short amount of time, Shen Qi became the most talked-about contestant on "Idol New Power." Netizens used the theme of "MSG Factory" for countless memes, and Shen Qi's Weibo popularity even surpassed the first-place contestant, Sweety's Song Siyao.

Due to the "closed-door" training, the contestants had their phones confiscated, but Shen Qi still learned about this from the program interviews.

Reporter: "Now everyone calls you 'Factory Owner,' and the audience really likes you, are you happy?"

Shen Qi: "Don't call me that randomly, 'Factory Owner' is my dad, and I don't have any intention of usurping his position for now."

Reporter: "Does your dad know you entered Class F? What did he say?"
