Apprentice Idol [Entertainment]

Although it was nearing the end of the year and the weather had cooled down, none of them had a single meeting together.Generally speaking, the entire project team has frequent meetings, and it is enough for Xu Teng to convey the central idea. If there is something special, Xu Teng will hold a short meeting for them.

Bai Lu considered that they were already very busy practicing basic classes, and they had already lost the life that ordinary children should live. Now that they have more fans, there is basically a seamless connection between attending classes at school and coming to the company, and avoiding contact during their stay outside. When it comes to fans chasing private life, their interests and hobbies are basically squeezed out.

I want to have a meeting with them to face up to the future problems.

Bai Lu also specially called this meeting: Donut Exchange Meeting.

At 04:30 in the afternoon, several people came to the lounge.Bai Lu asked his assistant to make donuts and tea for them, and when Zhou Zhitan entered, their eyes crossed for a moment.

Bai Lu wore a snow-white long-sleeved sweater and a casual suit today, and his hair was still combed back.Zhou Zhitan took a look and sat down on the second right hand seat, next to Wang Liuxu.

"Hi everyone, I've been looking for an opportunity to have a private meeting with you all." Bai Lu cleared his throat, "It's very formal."

"First of all." Bai Lu projected the screen onto the wall, "Have you watched what was broadcast on TV yesterday, how do you feel about your performance?"

"It's a little embarrassing..." An Yin said.

"Who is doing well?"

"..." Everyone present was silent.

Bai Lu smiled: "Don't be so nervous. First of all, I want to tell you that this kind of variety show debut is already good. Thanks to the post-editing, it won't magnify your shortcomings." He said, "Keep it up. In the later stage, or live broadcast, if you continue to work hard with this as the starting point, the effect will definitely be better."

"Okay!" Several people responded.

"Well... eat, you're welcome." Bai Lu pointed to the donuts on the table, and everyone glanced at each other.They all picked it up and ate it.

"Let's talk again, Weibo has been calling you to delete it for a few days, didn't you peek?"

"……No!"

"Someone must have peeked at it." Bai Lu smiled, "It's really nothing to watch. The important thing is that the Internet is a platform for free speech. How can people say that you are ready, eh? Wang Liuxu?"

"Ah?" Wang Liuxu, who was called on unexpectedly and focused on licking the matcha donut, sat up straight.

"What do you think people on the Internet usually scold you for?"

Wang Liuxu thought for a while: "Talk too much..."

"Where's Zhou Zhitan?" Bai Lu looked over.

Zhou Zhitan thought for a while: "...it's too boring, and the dancing and singing are just average..."

Bai Lu twirled the ballpoint pen in his hand, pinched it and pointed at Zhou Zhitan: "Your hairstyle is ugly."

Then pointing to Wang Liuxu: "The color of your clothes doesn't match."

Then he looked at An Yin: "I'm in a bad mood, and I saw your face as soon as I swiped the homepage."

He tapped the ballpoint pen on the table: "They don't need to explain why they hate you. They can hate you even if they eat salty food. Are you convinced?"

A few people seemed to understand and nodded.

"You have no grievances with them, but you must be prepared to be hated by them. When you are on stage and on TV, countless pairs of eyes are staring at you to review you. Whether you are right or wrong, you will be hated."

Wang Liuxu said softly: "So, there is no need to be troubled by this kind of hate."

"Yes, I want to perform for people who like you." An Yin said.

"Okay, you can post Weibo if you want." Bai Lu said, "If you become an idol, you will understand that the malice in this world is so unreasonable."

"Wang Liuxu." Bai Lu said, "For example, you will one day be hated by Zhou Zhitan's only fans. No one can help you. You can only enlighten yourself."

"And so are the others."

"I have a question." Li Mo suddenly said on the sidelines, "What should we do about the CP issue... I often see some sisters writing..."

"This is the third question I want to talk about." Bai Lu folded his hands under his chin, "You can't admit all CP questions. Just pretend that you don't understand. If someone says something wrong in future activities...I will Take it seriously." Bai Lu said, "Although CP is not in a relationship, it is a big blow to some fans. It is one thing to fire CP, it is done by us behind the scenes, and another is to admit it."

Zhou Zhitan was a little uncomfortable at first talking about the CP problem so openly, but Bai Lu did not shy away from poking at the problem, which made him feel that the man in front of him was serious about his work, and he was inexplicably moved.

"Next I want to talk about one thing." Bai Lu turned the page of the ppt, "December is here, and at the end of the month, we will hold a party every year in Xingge, Christmas and New Year's Day Gala, when almost all the artists in Xingge will be present, This year's party will be broadcast live on the Internet platform, and you will have a program this year."

The meeting room was silent for a while, and then there was an exclamation immediately.

"real??"

Everyone couldn't believe it.

That is the biggest gathering of stars in Xingge every year, big and small, famous and not famous, but all stars in Xingge can participate.

There are individual shows for those with big names, and platter shows for those with small seats, but it is an honor in itself to be on the same stage with so many seniors.

"What are we performing!" An Yin raised his hand and asked.

"Let's tentatively decide on this dance song that you are going to record tomorrow." Bai Lu said, "You are in a special situation. Although I brought it, I guess you should share it with others."

But it doesn't matter if the five of them compete or not, as long as they can be on stage, they will be very happy.

Bai Lu looked at Xu Teng: "Mr. Xu, what do you want to add?"

Xu Teng watched from the side for a long time, and he was very serious, taking a couple of sips of coffee from time to time, and what Bai Lu said was basically what he wanted to say, so he turned his notebook over and said, "I'll show you."

The words on the notebook were small, and Zhou Zhitan, who sat the farthest, could only see a title: October-November Industry Debut Group.

Bai Lu was so close that he could read carefully. He remembered that Xu Teng had sent him an email before, but he didn't have time to read it, so he scanned along with him now, and laughed out loud after reading a few lines.

Xu Teng knew what he was laughing at, but the others were confused.

Xu Teng explained unhurriedly: "There are different groups debuting every month. Many company trainees don't have enough practice time, or they are taken back from Korea and they are not acclimatized. When they debuted, they made a great debut and flopped as fast as lightning."

Zhou Zhitan understood what Bai Lu was laughing at just now.

There are several lines of densely written group name, debut time, topic level... Others can't understand, in fact, they don't know, they have not made their debut, but the data has far surpassed them.

"You are lucky." Xu Teng said, "One is that there are few in the industry who are as rich and powerful as Hexing Pavilion, who can give you so much time to prepare. Second, the timing of the speculation is right, and a wave of fans is attracted by a photo. Let the envy of the other family envy."

"I hope that one day others will analyze you as a successful case in the industry." Xu Teng said, "With the lucky label, you will become truly qualified idols."

With this handful, the meeting room was filled with a touching and passionate atmosphere. Several people secretly thought about Xu Teng's words, like a shot of boost in the mobilization meeting before the final.

"so."

Xu Teng suddenly interrupted their train of thought, and Bai Lu paused with his fingers, as if remembering another matter Xu Teng discussed with him a few days ago.

He didn't give a clear answer at the time, but Xu Teng seemed to be putting it on the agenda.Even Bai Lu was a little panicked and excited.

He quietly rolled his eyes and propped his head up to see the reactions of the five people.

"Maybe from next year, Xingge will recruit new trainees, and their debut depends on their strength. It doesn't matter whether they come late or early."

The few people who were still excited were stunned.

There is no doubt that this is a matter that has not yet been settled.

Unlike before, when everyone sat back and thought that as long as they worked hard, they could make their debut, this decision means that they may be put on hold infinitely due to lack of strength.

It's not unreasonable for Xu Teng to think so.He knew that Xingge's resources were excellent, and with Bai Lu behind them, the starting point of these few people's debut was higher than that of ordinary trainees.When they reach a certain height, they are particularly prone to stagnation.

After he finished speaking, he glanced at Bai Lu in the blink of an eye. Bai Lu propped his head and lowered his eyes, and said after a while: "That's it, this decision is also after our careful consideration, so this evening party will be used as an annual assessment to assess your performance in the past six months. results."

Xu Teng heaved a sigh of relief, he was quite afraid of Bai Lu's sudden softening of his character.

It was too late after the meeting here, and several people were still hungry after eating donuts, so they were clamoring to go out for supper.Wang Liuxu said pitifully that brother Xu would be going to favor others next year and today, and he would always remember this meal and brother Xu's kindness to him.

Xu Teng sneered, turned around and asked Bai Lu, "Are you going?"

Bai Lu originally wanted to say no, but Wang Liuxu had already put his arm around Zhou Zhitan's neck and asked him what he wanted to eat. Zhou Zhitan didn't know anyone very well, but he was not polite to say anything Wang Liuxu said, saying he wanted to eat Xiaolongbao.

Bai Lu coughed: "I know there is a restaurant near here that opens very late."

Maybe today is the weekend, and the fans staying outside the company have to go to work or school tomorrow, but there is no one outside the building at this time.The five of them felt that they could walk sideways. Xu Teng walked in front and hugged Wang Liuxu. Wang Liuxu was taken by him inexplicably.

Seeing Xu Teng push Wang Liuxu away, Bai Lu wondered how to fall in love with the girl he wanted to date with when he was in school, as if his best friend was very reliable in dismissing his best friend...

But Bai Lu had never liked a girl before, and he didn't know what it felt like.He slowed down and was level with Zhou Zhitan.

"Is it still burning?" he asked in a low voice.

"No." Zhou Zhitan also replied in a low voice, the tips of his ears were still red.

"Last night I was scared to death, next time you do this again, you can fend for yourself." Bai Lu said.

Zhou Zhitan was sweet in his heart, and said: "You have a meeting all day today, go back and have a good rest."

Then you come and talk to each other in a low voice, Bai Lu remembered the problem in his heart just now.

The night breeze is cold, after all, it is late autumn.

He also didn't want to think about what this feeling of churning in his heart was, and he thought it was just like this.

Xu Teng was very depressed, and made an appointment with the photographer early in the morning, but he told Xu Teng early in the morning that he was borrowed to shoot an interview.

When Xu Teng inquired, it was an exclusive interview with Xu Yiqing.He was left speechless by the pigeon, so he could only go to the office and talk to Bai Lu.

Unexpectedly, Bai Lu couldn't figure it out either. After making the third call, he threw the phone on the table, rarely without smiling and said angrily, "Couldn't anyone in such a big Xingge be able to take pictures?!"

Xu Teng said helplessly: "There is no other way, the end of the year is approaching, and there is a shortage of photography everywhere."

"It's not a problem to take pictures of my children." Bai Lu was dissatisfied.

Xu Teng thought about it for a while: "Actually, it's just a dance... Let's find a camera and borrow a tripod..."

Bai Lu understood what he meant, and felt that it was reasonable to think about it this way: "...and we are here, so they won't be too nervous."

It is still possible to borrow a camera and a tripod Bailu. The master who looked at the equipment in Curry also brought them two light boxes. They arranged the white shed by themselves, set up the tripod and camera, and adjusted the focus. Xu Teng turned around for a long time I didn't turn over the wire board, so I had to wind the wire of the light box to the bracket behind the white background cloth, and then several people came with makeup.

The makeup artist and assistants came along, and there were more than ten people crowded in the shed.It became lively all of a sudden. Bai Lu looked at the looks of several people. The stylist put on pink jackets for the three of them. The three of them were light yellow jackets and uniform white pants, which went well with the brisk dance music, like Fresh strawberries and lemons.

With makeup on, Zhou Zhitan's facial features are more three-dimensional and profound, and his appearance is unparalleled among the five people.If he opened it, he would definitely be more handsome and make others jealous.

Thinking about it, the makeup lady over there is still doing Li Mo's hairstyle.A makeup maker said that this look is not good, and kept nagging, but unexpectedly, the girl who helped Zhou Zhitan gave away the setting spray on her hand, and said with a sneer, "Then you come."

The other was unwilling: "Yo, Sister Ge, you can't say it."

Xiaoge is a senior makeup artist in Xingge, and later another girl, Nana, came to Xingge from another company. The recent looks have won Bai Fan's heart. Choking on it.

Choking on the fire, and the shed was quiet, Zhou Zhitan couldn't bear it after saying a few words like this, and said in a low voice, "Sisters, don't make noise."

The pretty little brother persuaded so softly that the two stopped talking.After being busy for a while, I took my position according to the previous practice. An Yin stood at the C position, with a tall body in pink and quite a posture.

Zhou Zhitan was in the corner on the left, and Wang Liuxu was in front of him. He took two deep breaths and knew it was time to inspect the goods.

He had a fever for a few days before, but Zhou Zhitan remembered all the movements by heart.Although the dance was not beautiful, it was proficient enough. An Yin and Li Mo were not bad, but Wang Liuxu and Gu Xi, the two of them agreed, they must make a mistake.

Finally, the two were good, and Li Mo started to be wrong again.

Although editing is also possible, but for the sake of effect, Bai Lu and Xu Teng did not agree.After more than an hour of tossing and tossing, I was sweating from dancing, and the makeup on my face began to fall off.Bai Lu called Xu Teng out to smoke, and the two left.

The makeup maker came up to fiddle with them again, Zhou Zhitan was tired from dancing, and stood there holding his waist and panting.Xiao Ge powdered him, puffing on, Zhou Zhitan felt the powder puff on his face, he was closing his eyes, when he heard Xiao Ge say angrily "What are you doing!".

Nana seemed to be touching up Wang Liuxu's makeup, and when she stepped back, she squeezed into Xiaoge. Xiaoge pointed to the side, "The place is so big, so squeeze me on purpose."

Xu Teng and Bai Lu were not there, there was a circle of assistants inside, and the two even scolded each other.Wang Liuxu also came to smooth things over: "Sisters, stop arguing, you are so angry in the morning. I feel uncomfortable with powder on my face."

Zhou Zhitan also wanted to persuade him, but unexpectedly, Nana pushed and shoved, and Xiao Ge fell backwards.It hit the rear light stand, and the light stand itself was top-heavy, and it fell straight out after such a collision, which pulled the weak wire on the ground.Zhou Zhitan instinctively wanted to give a helping hand, and took two steps forward, when he suddenly heard a scream, and then he felt his back was hit hard by something, and then his knees, when he knelt down, He also sprained his foot.

Bai Lu and Xu Teng were smoking in the corridor, when they heard a tinkling sound inside, accompanied by the girl's scream.Bai Lu and Xu Teng glanced at each other, threw the cigarette on the ground and stamped it out, turned around and ran inside.

The shelf with the white background cloth was only half down, and it happened to be completely on Zhou Zhitan's body.Several boys and assistants frantically held up the airs to stop Zhou Zhitan's back from being stressed. Xiaoge and Nana were already surrounded, and Nana stood there covering her mouth and was about to cry.

As soon as Xu Teng came in, he knew that something was wrong. He was tall and strong, so he ran up to put the bracket on it, and shouted: "Why are you standing there, go over there and touch the bracket, and push him up."

The other four hurriedly set up the brackets. Bai Lu had already reached Zhou Zhitan's side first. Zhou Zhitan was hit and blinded, and he recovered after a while, but his knees and ankles hurt so badly that he couldn't even speak. Bai Lu asked Can he get up, he waved his hand.

After Wang Liuxu moved over there, he came over and lay down on the ground: "Can't you move?!"

Bai Lu became more anxious and calmer, and said to Xu Teng, "Stop the dance recording first, I'll take him to my office first."

Zhou Zhitan regained some strength, and felt that Bai Lu wrapped his arms around his waist and hugged him horizontally.He didn't have the strength to scream, so he could only hook Bai Lu's neck.Bai Lu whispered in his ear, "Don't move! It won't hurt in a while."

Wang Liuxu still wanted to go out with him, but Bai Lu signaled no need, and walked out the door with big strides.Xu Teng stood where he was and sighed, and asked them to help the lamp stand up together.

Can you not be angry if you smashed your own flesh and blood?Xu Teng glanced at the two makeup artists next to him, took a breath, and said first: "This dance may not come out today, although the official blog has also announced it before, but there is no way to deal with emergencies. Please understand. "

The four of them glanced at each other, and An Yin said worriedly: "The pole is so heavy, it won't be broken."

"What nonsense?" Wang Liuxu pushed An Yin, "Fuck me!"

"Bah, bah, bah." An Yin was not feeling well either.

A well-prepared dance was ruined just like that.Over there, both Gu Xi and Li Mo were silent, only Nana tremblingly said: "...I, we..."

It was nothing at first, Gu Xi and Li Mo got angry when they heard the voice, Gu Xi sneered first, he didn't even bother to pretend to be mean in front of Xu Teng, Li Mo even pointed at the two of them directly in front of Xu Teng, Regardless, he said: "It's not that they are pushing and shoving here, could Zhou Zhitan be injured! Do you know how long we have been rehearsing!"

Gu Xi was also in a fit of anger, unable to speak in his head: "I'll tell Director Bai later."

The people present didn't understand the meaning of these words. Gu Xi usually likes to curry favor with others intentionally or unintentionally. At that time, Bai Lu could call him by his name to show off for a long time, so he would say this, thinking it was just his usual fault.Only Xu Teng glanced at him in the blink of an eye.
