The noise stopped suddenly, and everyone inside looked at Tong Xinyao, feeling suddenly embarrassed.
But when they saw clearly that the person coming was Tong Xinyao, they all forced a flattering smile on their tired faces, "Teacher Tong?"
Tong Xinyao nodded politely. She was still not used to this title, "Well... I just finished practicing and I don't know the way back to the dormitory. Seeing that the lights are still on here, I wanted to ask for directions."
The people inside looked at each other, "You," a woman glared at the boy just now. The boy seemed to feel her strong gaze and raised his head slightly, "Yes, that's you. You can't help here anyway, you will only cause trouble. Go and send Teacher Tong back to the dormitory, you can't mess this up."
"Ah, no, no, just tell me, no need to bother." She originally just wanted someone to point her in the direction, and she would know how to get there when she got there.
"It's okay, Teacher Tong, he's not busy."
The boy looked smart and immediately stood up and walked to Tong Xinyao, "Teacher Tong, I will take you back."
At this point, Tong Xinyao couldn't refuse. This boy had gathered so many people's fire, and letting him go for a while might just allow him to breathe.
After walking out of the office building, the boy seemed to have not come out of the atmosphere just now, and was still unhappy.
"What's up, little brother? Are you being criticized?" He looks so young, so he probably hasn't suffered any setbacks yet.
"Yeah." The boy nodded depressedly, as if he had no intention of telling Tong Xinyao in detail.
"I just heard something about anime images and IP customization, what is it?" The tone was a bit playful, but also to make the boy relax.
"It was originally a small surprise given to the contestants by the program team, but I messed it up. It will most likely be gone."
"Since it's gone, there's no harm in telling me." She still wanted to know.
The boy looked at her and hesitated for a while. He who had just come out of the battlefield probably felt that Tong Xinyao was friendly, "I'll tell you, but you have to pretend you don't know."
"Absolutely no problem."
"Our program team has customized an exclusive cartoon IP image for each contestant participating in this recording. It is designed according to your personal characteristics. It also has the logo of the sponsor. It is said that the program team spent a lot of money. Before you After completing the first stage, you will receive this customized doll. When the production company sent it, I signed for it. I didn't unpack it and check it at the time. I just found out tonight that one was missing. They insisted that they had sent it all, so now I don’t know who is responsible, but I am definitely responsible for signing for it.” The boy spread his hands helplessly.
"IP image?" Tong Xinyao's curiosity arose immediately, "Can I see mine?"
The boy suddenly stopped and smiled awkwardly at Tong Xinyao without saying a word.
Tong Xinyao had a bad premonition. She guessed it, "Huh? The one that's missing is mine?"
The boy immediately bowed 180 degrees and said, "I'm sorry, teacher, I really didn't mean to do it. This is my first internship. At that time, I really thought I was just going to sign for a courier. I didn't think much of it."
Tong Xinyao was a little disappointed, but she didn't blame him, "Are you... an adult?" He looked so young, and Tong Xinyao was really curious.
The boy was amused by his question, "I'm an adult. I'm a freshman. This internship started during my winter vacation. At that time, I was preparing for this program. Although school has started now, I still want to see myself participating in the planning. The project has been completed, so I will take time to come here to help.”
"Oh." It's so pitiful that he has to be severely beaten by society when he has just grown up. "By the way, what do the other contestants' cartoon figures look like? Can you show me?"
The boy opened the photo album on his mobile phone and showed Tong Xinyao the dolls of other contestants.
After reading it, Tong Xinyao had an idea of the general style of the image, "Is my one also in this style?"
The boy thought that Tong Xinyao was dissatisfied with the company's design capabilities, "Well, it's roughly the same, but it will have more of your personal characteristics..."
"Hey, that's not what I meant." Unknowingly, he had reached the downstairs of the dormitory, "Follow me."
"Ah?" The boy was stunned. There were other artists upstairs. It wouldn't be convenient for him to go up.
"There are other artists resting up there, so I won't go up there." The boy was a little embarrassed.
"I brought a few dolls given by fans. They all have my personal image characteristics. Don't you want to come and see if any of them can be used?"
There was a glimmer of light in the boy's eyes, and he seemed to see hope, but he still hesitated to take a step.
"Then wait for me at the top of the stairs after you go upstairs. I will hold it out for you to see. You can't let me, a girl, run up and down with a bunch of dolls." Tong Xinyao pouted, a bit coquettishly.
The boy finally stopped being coy and went upstairs with Tong Xinyao, waiting at the stairs.
Not long after, Tong Xinyao came out with a bunch of dolls, some big and some small. The dolls' costumes were the costumes of Costen from her competition programs in the past few seasons, and they were very attentive.
It takes some time for Tong Xinyao to adapt to a strange environment. The dolls she is familiar with are the best assistants, so she will bring some with her when going out to compete.
"I just brought these. You can see if there are any suitable ones." Tong Xinyao kept her voice as low as possible because she was afraid of affecting other artists' rest.
The boy's eyes lit up, and he immediately spotted one that was similar in size to other skaters' dolls. It was wearing the Costen from her Olympic free skating program. "Is this okay?" This was a gift from a fan. She must have loved it to have it with her, and although it would eventually return to her hands, she was still a little embarrassed.
"Of course, take it." Tong Xinyao thrust the doll into the boy's arms without hesitation, "Oh, by the way, what about the sponsor's logo on the doll?"
"That's okay, we have a lot of sponsor pins, just put them on." This is not the key, the key is the copyright of this doll's image, "Teacher, the copyright of this image..."
Almost ignoring the most important thing, Tong Xinyao thought for a while, "Then it should be made with care by my old fans. Leave it to me. I will definitely get the copyright issue before the show is broadcast."
The boy's eyebrows were filled with joy, "Then thank you, teacher." He made another 180-degree bow.
"You don't need to call me teacher, just call me sister." I usually either compete or train, and I haven't seen such a cute boy for a long time. "By the way, what's your name?"
"My name is Shen Miao."
"Okay, then go back quickly. The teachers in your project team are still worried about this matter." Tong Xinyao also wanted to go back and rest.
Shen Miao seemed to have no intention of leaving. He scratched his head and said, "Um...sister, can I add you on WeChat?"
