This Girl Forced to Become an Entertainment Company Boss-Chapter 97: 0

In China, no matter which circle you're in, as long as you have some contact with merchandise, everyone knows how great Random Entertainment is. Their mini-cards are especially famous, even gaining popularity overseas.

Even though fans have become accustomed to Random Entertainment's amazing merchandise, they were still shocked by this album.

"Title: Gossip Discussion / Aaahhhhh I deserve to be fleeced! Fleece me! Please fleece me hard!"

"The album went on sale at 10 AM this morning. Some fans went to buy it early, and the result! The result!!!"

"[Link]"

The link posted in the thread was from Weibo, and it had already been shared thousands of times before being posted here. Everyone was marveling at this amazing phenomenon.

"I woke up and technology has already evolved to this level?"

"I looked down at my album that's not even as thick as one of my test papers..."

"Others buy a 79 yuan album that can be used as a speaker and holographic projector, while I for 79 yuan... hmph."

"How does it work? How does it work? I'm tired of asking this! How can I be shocked every time?!"

"I'm really disappointed in my bias's company. If they put half the effort they use to dig up ugly clothes into designing merchandise, would they be worried about not making money?"

"You can order online from the 1st to the 7th, shipping starts after the 7th. If you want it now, you can go to the mobile booth at the Galaxy venue! The one in the video is the Bluetooth album, only 79 yuan! If you want the effect shown in the video, you need to buy a complete set! You need to buy all five members! If you don't know how to buy, DM me, I'll teach you!"

"Solo stans must be so angry, having to buy a whole set just to see their bias's mini-figure."

"I knew it, how could there only be single covers, so this was the trick!"

"I'm so tempted, I'm going to place an order."

"I see solo stans on Weibo are already causing a fuss."

At this moment, the whole internet was marveling at Random Entertainment's new technology. Only Timetrain's five solo fandoms were furious, especially those of the more popular members. The thought of having to buy other members' albums just to see their bias's mini-figure made them angry.

"Not buying, not supporting others."

"Sisters, if you really can't stand it, you can buy the set and wrap up the other members' albums."

"Wrapping them up won't work."

"Stupid Random Entertainment, so disgusting."

The most toxic fans refused to buy no matter what, preferring not to see their bias rather than provide sales for other members. But most fans couldn't resist the temptation and ended up ordering the whole set. Some who couldn't wait packed their bags and rushed to the nearest Galaxy city to buy several sets to take home.

With this move by Random Entertainment, even those who had almost forgotten about their debut today were reminded. Marketing accounts rode this hot topic, determined to create viral videos, sending several messages to Timetrain.

Today, as long as you opened your phone, you could see news about them.

It's worth noting that in China's entertainment industry, which is dominated by film and television, idol groups have always struggled to make waves, let alone during their debut when popularity is at its lowest.

In this era where everything needs marketing, Timetrain's debut heat has created a new ceiling for the Chinese entertainment industry.

While everyone outside was concerned about Timetrain's debut, the solo stan sisters were putting on sour faces. Some even threatened Random Entertainment, saying they would stop buying all future merchandise and albums.

But before that threat could materialize, Random Entertainment preemptively announced an event.

"Timetrain and Galaxy Shopping Mall are jointly hosting an 'infp-a' pop-up store event. The addresses for each city are as follows. After scanning the QR code, you can use the mini-program to check the pop-up store address and current number of visitors--"

A slap followed by a sweet date.

This pop-up store event featured individual exhibitions, with only one member's exhibit at each shopping mall - a paradise for solo stans.

Preview images of each member's pop-up store exhibition were also released. It was the bedroom from the little box, but in a giant version, with everything inside enlarged.

Besides this small room, there were also rooms inspired by the members' MBTI types. These weren't shown in the sample images; you'd have to visit in person to see them.

This sudden event was very much in line with Random Entertainment's style.

Announced today, opening today.

At this moment, the Galaxy merchandise building was packed. The tables in the leisure area were already full, and late-arriving fans could only find empty spaces to sit and unpack their albums. Looking around, everyone had stacks of albums beside them.

Due to the crowd, it was noisy and the indoor temperature had risen. It was hot, noisy, and irritating to stay there.

"So busy, so busy!" Jiang Liuxing had been a fan for many years, but this was the first time she'd been this busy. She irritably took out her phone and typed quickly.

She used to be a fan of actors. Actors' activities were limited to a few types: road shows during movie releases, commercial endorsement events, and set arrivals and departures during filming. Suddenly switching from being an actor's fan to an idol's fan, she found it hard to adapt to this kind of happy busyness.

Although Jiang Liuxing complained about being busy, she had already started searching for the location of Pei Luming's pop-up store, determined to go today.

Liu Yue looked at the pile of things the two of them had bought and felt a bit of a headache. "Where are we going to put all this? Do we have to take it home?"

Jiang Liuxing stopped typing and looked at the albums scattered all over the ground. They had opened all the albums to look for photo cards, and now the place was a mess, even encroaching on the territory of the girl sitting opposite them.

Zhou Keke, who had already packed up her things, glanced at the two of them. She looked at her cardboard box, then back at them. "Um... maybe you could ask the staff for some cardboard boxes, then pack the albums in them and courier them home."

As soon as she said this, both girls' eyes lit up.

"Oh, right!"

"You're so smart!"

The two airheads made to go find staff members to ask for boxes, both leaving together without anyone staying behind to watch their things. Zhou Keke, who was about to leave, watched their retreating figures and sat back down in her chair.

"..."

The bustling scene of the little jasmines (fans) today was enough to make fans of other groups envious.

"Title: Gossip Discussion / I'm going to make a fuss! I'm really going to make a fuss!"

"How do you have so many activities? Going to music shows, fan signing events, and now pop-up store activities. There must be other variety shows in between too. I'm really envious, who understands?!"

"Random Entertainment, can you sign my bias? I'll go persuade him. Please sign him! Just deduct the contract breach fee from our merchandise sales. Please!"

Comments:

"As a K-pop fan, I'm shedding tears of envy. I didn't think much of following idols from across the sea before, but it turns out those kimchi girls have it so good!"

"Their fans must be so happy. Two months of promotions, activities every week. If you want to meet them, just go offline. Even if you can't get tickets or afford fan signings, there are still pop-up store events. Fans can even arrange to browse together, it's so interesting. Can I also experience this treatment of bumping into fellow fans everywhere? I can't take it anymore! Random Entertainment, when are you going to debut a girl group!!!"

"Let's not mention anything else, just this 79 yuan album says it all. Random Entertainment treats fans like children, thinking they don't have money, so they price everything low. My bias's company not only treats me like a leek, but a sturdy one, wanting to harvest me every day."

"This treatment of being able to take a high-speed train on the weekend and meet your idol is truly unique in the industry. Some don't even need to take the train, they're doing a nationwide tour!"

"Escaped the 21st, escaped the countdown, but couldn't escape their debut... I'm so envious. I plan to transform from a leek into a human and take a stroll in the human world. Sisters, wait for my news."

"There's more, you know. There are other activities, but I signed an NDA, so I can't reveal anything for now~"

"The one above, whisper it to me, I won't tell anyone."

"An Random Entertainment employee has appeared in the thread! I knew they had infiltrated our leek garden!"

"I'm not from Random Entertainment, I'm just a clear-eyed, silly university student. They have an upcoming activity at our school, so I know about it. That's all I can say, can't reveal any more."

"Then whisper to me, which school are you from."

The Chive Garden group became secretive due to this leaked news, with everyone listening intently for updates. Meanwhile, the core members of the group - the little jasmines - were too busy to be on their phones browsing the internet.

Galaxy Shopping Mall is the most widespread shopping center, with a presence even in third-tier cities.

Because it was so close, fans who had free time all went out, wanting to check out that pop-up store.

Zhou Keke was originally planning to go home, but somehow got persuaded by those two and ended up sending the album back via courier. After leaving the office building, she followed them to the nearest Galaxy Shopping Mall.

"Perfect timing, it's mealtime now. We can grab something to eat after we finish browsing. My treat," Liu Yue said after checking the time.

Zhou Keke quickly waved her hands and said, "No need, we can split the bill."

Jiang Liuxing was the last to get out of the car. She was busy paying for the ride and didn't hear what the other two were saying.

When she finished paying and looked up, she saw that enormous structure in the plaza with "Pei Luming's Room" written plainly on it. She smiled and said, "I saw this yesterday when I passed by and thought the mall was having some event. I didn't expect it to be Random Entertainment's."

Liu Yue also smiled, "Who could have guessed that?"

Everyone knows that Random Entertainment is quite "independent," partly because they don't like to play with other companies, and partly because other companies don't like to include them. This time, their willingness to collaborate with the mall for an event is more likely for the sake of the fans.

The three of them looked at that enormous structure, then glanced at the other fans in the plaza who were dressed up beautifully—

Indeed, Random Entertainment always puts fans first, making it hard not to indulge them a little.

Solo fan: Since there's a solo exhibition, this young lady will forgive you this time.

MBTI is similar to horoscopes, it's not a big deal if you don't know about it~
