Translator: Lan Editor: Efydatia The wheels of the entertainment circle kept moving forward for Qin Guan . The Silver Eagle Festival was about to open, and everyone was busy preparing for the ceremony . Most activities had been pushed aside for the festival, but just two days before the event, Wang Jingcao took action .
News about Qin Guan started spreading around mainstream websites . The web star quickly got to the top of the charts .
Visitors saw small voting areas on the homepages of web portals . They were black and white, just like the VOGUE cover had been .
They looked conspicuous and mysterious among the other colorful photos .
"Asia Fashion Men is inviting you to vote . "
Some curious users clicked on it . The title sounds good .
They were disappointed by the introduction though .
There was information about 20 models from different Asian countries . Their photos were all on the same page, their nationalities and ages noted right under them . If one clicked on a photo, they would see the model’s resume, height, size and brand .
The concept of voting online was interesting, but the buttons under the photos were grey . On the bottom, there was a line of words: Voting will be open from January 1st to January 3rd, 2002 .
This was just the warm-up . Some guys took it as a joke, but there were also many who took it seriously .
They were curious about the strange modelling circle . The boys in the photos looked like fairies .
They noticed a serious problem: There were only two Chinese men among the candidates . As a country with such a large population, that rate was way too low .
Many people decided that they would support Qin Guan, the only model they recognized . They ignored the second model, Shao Xiaobing, because of his inferior popularity .
Qu was looking at the voting page doubtfully . The promotion was not strong enough in her opinion . What was Wang thinking about?
Suddenly, her phone rang, attracting her attention . She got to work, leaving Qin Guan behind .
Qu was right, but Wang already had plans to take care of the situation .
She had originally planned on assigning an image advisor to help Qin Guan with his outfit for the festival . Then she realized that Sister Xue could do it . Qin Guan had never made any mistakes in public .
It was safe for him to wear something straight and narrow for his debut .
They all flied to Changsha to attend the festival on November 5th .
As Qin Guan was busy putting on his custom-made suit, a group of strange people took over internet cafes .
A strong man watched his part-time staff fill an internet cafe that could host about 100 people .
When everyone was seated, he cleared his throat and said, "Attention! Your work today is to vote . Later, I’ll give you a list and some instructions on voting . Look here!"
He pointed to a small TV hanging from the ceiling . "When they begin to count down, you just start voting again and again . Understand?"
Some people were hesitant . A brave one asked, "Brother, this will take only several minutes . Will I get 15 yuan for the whole day?"
The strong man looked at him disdainfully . The thin, smaller man had stinky hair and messy clothes . He looked like he was an internet addict .
He grinned and announced, "You’ll get a salary and free lunch . The job will take four days . I can't let you guys out . "
People grew excited at his words . It was quite a good job, and it would only take them some time . They were all up to the task .
Meanwhile, the same scene was repeated in different internet bars .
The host of the opening ceremony sat up in the dressing room . Busy staff were shuttling back and forth .
The office of the committee was in chaos .
A producer was shouting to the head of the committee with red cheeks, waving a pile of tickets at him .
"Stop talking about the new rules! Never before has a committee acted like yours! I have won three Silver Eagle Awards! I know the rules very well! I know them even better than you!"
"Of course, your awards are not as prestigious as the Flying and May the First awards, but they’re also national awards . You should expect an uproar in the circle if you insist on acting like this . "
"I have never seen a voting ticket like this one! You bound others to my tickets! I paid for this! Why do I have to pay for others? I just want to vote for my show! Why do I have to fill in the other three blanks on the ticket? I have spent 100,000 yuan on promotion . Why should three other productions profit at my expense? Are you kidding me? This is unfair!"
