Doing data occasionally won't have much impact.

However, Xue Bing's request was that she would make the decision for the twenty finalists. It was a complete behind-the-scenes operation. He really couldn't accept this.

"No, this won't work," Yan Xin shook his head vigorously, "This may be good for the e-commerce company and can get the models they want, but it will affect the credibility of the website and the brand of the Hanfu Goddess Contest. This

It's killing the goose that lays the egg, which is very short-sighted and I can't accept it."

"If you look at the data, netizens won't be able to tell, right?" Xue Bing said.

In fact, she also knew that this would affect the credibility of the website. However, she was not from Starlight Entertainment, but from Jinxi E-commerce. The two bosses also promised to give her how many shares they would give her after a certain number of years. She needed to consider

Of course, it is the interests of e-commerce companies.

Yan Xin still shook his head: "This can't be good, netizens are not fools."

Feng Xi added next to him: "Not all netizens are fools."

There are many netizens who are easy to deceive. If you look at the data, most netizens will not be able to tell.

But as long as one or two attentive netizens notice it and spread the word, the entire Internet will know about it.

If some people advance to the finals, there will be more people who will not advance to the finals.

Those who cannot make it to the finals have resentment in their hearts and will help spread such things.

If one thing goes wrong, the reputation of Xingguang.com will be ruined and the website will be destroyed.

Yan Xin attaches great importance to this website. It is the traffic pool he has prepared for future development, but he cannot let his reputation go bankrupt just because of this trivial matter.

So he firmly opposed it.

Xue Bing felt a little depressed when she saw Feng Xi talking for Yan Xin, and frowned and said:

"However, if some ordinary-looking people enter the finals, we will be very passive."

Yan Xin also knows this truth. Jinxi E-commerce Company also owns half of his shares, and the other half belongs to his woman. Of course, he must also consider the interests of this company.

After thinking for a while, he said: "We can control this and let those who are beautiful enter the finals as much as possible. However, we cannot all enter the finals with beauties. There must be two ordinary ones."

Otherwise, the number of participants will drop by at least 90% the next time we hold an event.”

"Does the boss mean that in order to show the fairness of the event, ordinary-looking contestants must enter the finals?" Xue Bing asked.

"That's what it means, it must be there." Yan Xin said with certainty.

Xue Bing asked a question out of curiosity: "What if all the finalists are beautiful players? I'm talking about the situation without any data."

Yan Xin thought for a while and replied: "Then we have to find a way to let two ordinary-looking players enter. This will at least look fair."

Xue Bing couldn't help laughing.

It sounds a bit ironic that he does not hesitate to operate behind the scenes in order to look fair.

However, the reality is like this.

Which is more important, true fairness or appearance of fairness?

For a businessman, looking fair is of course more important.

This activity was originally meant for people to watch.

Whether it is fair or not has little to do with the facts. The main thing is to make most netizens feel that this is a completely fair and just game.

Feng Xi said: "It's not a big problem to add one or two ordinary-looking contestants. It won't waste much money. Besides, the makeup technology is so powerful now, so spend more time on their makeup and be more careful when retouching the pictures."

, it won’t have much impact on the product. If the sales volume is indeed not good, just give them a basic salary to support them, and there is not much money.”

Xue Bing sighed secretly and said: "But we need more excellent models."

"If you really need it, you can choose among the unsuccessful contestants. Those who make it to the finals can be our models. It doesn't mean that those who don't make it can't be our models. It's just a matter of spending a little more money." Feng Xi said.

"That's true." Xue Bing said with a smile.

In fact, she still disagrees with it. She feels that saving money and avoiding unnecessary waste is also a very important thing.

But both bosses meant that way, so it was hard for her to say anything else.

However, she still mentioned that she wanted to ensure that a few players entered the finals.

She is also paying close attention to this event, and there are some players she recognizes.

She even made a list of 20 people.

She thought her boss could agree to let her designate the finalists.

This hope was dashed, but she still hoped that her favorite players could advance to the finals.

Although it is already the last day, the competition is still fierce, and the difference between the top 50 and 60 players is not very big.

Based on the experience of the previous session, there are also situations where a comeback can happen in the last ten minutes on the last day.

In this kind of event, which is decided by netizen voting, anything can happen.

Although the contestants she was most optimistic about received relatively high votes, she was not sure whether they could advance to the finals.

No one knows until the last moment.

For the sake of insurance and to save money, she still hopes that the website can do some data to ensure that the contestants she is optimistic about will enter the finals.

Once they reach the finals, the website's promotion resources will be concentrated on those twenty people. That is the time for them to truly show off, which can bring them the highest popularity.

It also has a very good role in promoting product sales.

If they don't make it to the finals, they can indeed be signed, but without so many promotion resources and popularity, their value will be greatly reduced.

Not the same thing at all.

That's why she insisted on keeping a few in.

Yan Xin did not object this time.

All the finalists were designated by sponsors, which was a bit too sensational and he couldn't accept it.

Just appointing a few to enter, although it actually causes unfairness, this unfairness cannot be seen by outsiders and will not affect the reputation of the website, so there is no need for him to refuse.

Jinxi E-commerce Company is also his company, and of course he hopes that this company can obtain some of the best models. He also believes that Xue Bing's vision is much brighter than his.

So he agreed.

After some discussion, it was decided that Xue Bing would designate eight people to enter the finals.

Xue Bing didn't get twenty designated places, but was able to get eight designated places. Xue Bing didn't have that much regret.

She fought hard for the eight spots. She chose eight players who she thought were excellent. She didn't want to lose any of those eight, so she had to fight for them.

In the end, Yan Xin gave in.

When the car drove to the community where Feng Xi lived, Xue Bing did not leave, but followed them in. Then he gave a list of eight people, listed all their online names, and pushed all the posts to Yan Xin.

Yan Xin took a look and saw that there was a contestant he knew with the online name "Poetry and Pictures".

That was none other than his old classmate Xiao Shiyu.

I couldn't help but be surprised to see Xiao Shiyu appear on this list.

I thought to myself: "My old classmate, is she really this beautiful?"

He had seen Xiao Shiyu's entry post, and he also thought this old classmate was beautiful.

But he had no idea whether he was beautiful enough to enter the finals.

I am too familiar with it, and I am afraid that my judgment is not standard enough.

Feng Xi also saw it, and when he remembered who it was, his eyes on Yan Xin became intriguing.

Xue Bing saw that their eyes were a little strange and explained:

"This contestant is quite good. I have seen some of her posts. She is beautiful in Hanfu and fashionable clothes. She is also a college student. Judging from her writing, she is somewhat spiritual and has great potential."

Feng Xi smiled and said oh.

Yan Xin nodded cautiously.

But I was quite happy in my heart.

Xue Bing didn't mention it, he was still thinking about pushing Xiao Shiyu to the finals, but he just didn't know how to explain it to Feng Xi.

Now it was Xue Bing who proposed this list in front of both of them, so it was none of his business.

Xue Bing explained again: "The most important thing is that she is already very popular. She has been among the top three in terms of votes since participating in the competition, and she was still first for a while. After entering the finals, there are more

If we promote resources, her popularity will be further enhanced."

Feng Xi smiled even brighter: "It looks very good..."

Yan Xin nodded seriously: "It's indeed pretty good."

But there is some emptiness in my heart.

Xiao Shiyu stood out from so many beautiful girls, and her popularity among the top three did not necessarily depend on her own strength.

The company also provided her with data.

Of course, he would never admit this.
