It's not really true:
If you do mac-auth then what you said is true
If you do 802.1x authentication and if it failled then the connection is
deny.

No. the connection is deny.

If you do 802.1x you must have a valid username and password to access
to the production network.

What you can do is the following:
configure 802.1x (Cisco example) :
https://github.com/inverse-inc/packetfence/blob/devel/docs/PacketFence_Network_Devices_Configuration_Guide.asciidoc#8021x-with-mac-authentication-bypass-multidomain

Then if you have a 802.1x supplicant and a valid username and password
then you will be allowed on the network.
If you don't have a supplicant then the connection will be mac-auth and
you will hit the captive portal to register.
