Lead a group to the top of the entertainment circle

You Lian has no impression of his parents since he can remember, he grew up with his grandfather who picked up junk.

Grandpa said that he was picked up next to the trash can, and that he was put in a cardboard box, and his voice was like a kitten.

Grandpa really thought it was the milk cat who picked it up—when the old man said this, You Lian was eating his third bowl of boiled cabbage noodles.

"Why are you so edible? You didn't eat so well when you were a child? Cat, the family is running out of food, and you are better than a mouse..."

You Lian stared at the cat-like boy whose bangs were parted to the sides in the mirror, exposing the whole face, and the memory disappeared in a flash.

"How is it?" The young lady stylist looked at him blushing, with expectant eyes, "Does the hairstyle suit you? Put the bangs on both sides of your forehead to show your eyebrows and eyes, and the ends of your hair have also been shaped and fixed on your eyes." on both sides of the tail, so as to cover some of the corners of the eyes..."

From You Lian's attitude towards hair styling, the young lady felt that children probably don't like the word "style". She swallowed, and finished her sentence: "...the dark circles under the eyes."

You Lian nodded: "Very good."

He didn't understand much, so he could only save face politely.

"..."

Then came the order of the makeup artist. The gold-medal makeup artist who has been painting people and ghosts for many years looked at You Lian's face for a long time, but was still unable to do anything.

"Forget it, I give up, I don't want to add superfluous things to a beautiful work."

Then You Lian went out, the studio was in the hall outside, and the lights were brighter than inside the dressing room.

You Lian squinted uncomfortably, and after focusing... it was the first time to see so many pairs of eyes at the same time.

"..."

scared... dead...

You Lian didn't move, and the trainees didn't move.

Jin Yue's long and narrow eyes stared round, and Zhong Yu's usually aggressive eyes were also full of shock at this moment.

Ming Yang wiped his face, and silently encouraged You Lian in his heart: To be an idol, to make a debut, there will be such a day sooner or later, and even in the future, you will have to perform on a stage watched by tens of millions of people, you must get used to it, he is beautiful younger brother.

Voices gradually sounded from the crowd:

"Too beautiful……"

"Just standing on the street like this will cause a sensation."

"It's okay to be an actor with this face, as the number one beauty, the name of a brothel...whatever."

"What nonsense are you talking about? You Lian is a boy! And he sings so well, it would be a pity not to be an idol."

After Jin Yue's soul returned to her place, she excitedly moved toward

Ming Yang quickly grabbed the collar of his back and threw it back, "It's your turn to take pictures, oh what, where is Da Minger?"

Then Ming Yang waved at You Lian: "We're here! Come here! I'm going to take pictures later!"

You Lian, who was watched by the crowd: "...I can't make it through."

A group of 24 people, a total of four groups.

The distribution of personnel and the sequence of publication of the four groups of publicity photos are major issues.

The planning team debated endlessly:

"It doesn't matter to the others, just put You Lian in the first group, and Ming Yang will be the last one."

"Is there any mistake, the attention of the first group can't increase, okay, it's a waste to put You Lian first, the popularity of the second and third groups is supposed to be the highest, so You Lian [-] and Ming Yang [-], this is better! "

"But if You Lian doesn't take the lead, the follow-up attention will not increase even more? Everyone sees that the first group is not eye-catching, and they simply don't look at the rest."

"Why don't you let Ming Yang take the lead? That kid is handsome in the sense of a normal boy, so there won't be any controversy. The second group puts Zhong Yu and Jin Yue. Their personalities are too prominent, but the advantage is that they can continue to increase the popularity. The third group Let's put You Lian on, how about putting a few more good-natured, high-favorite, and less-controversial ones in the last four groups?"

……

After the promotional photos came out, the trainees were very excited.

A group photo of the first group of 24 trainees appeared on major entertainment websites, with Ming Yang in the center, leading the first group to the top of the list of hot searches——

[LY men's team debut match! 〕

Many entertainment media promoted it one after another, and the popularity kept rising.

LY also carried out publicity on its own: the exterior of the company building, bounded by the gate, has a large electronic display screen on the left and right sides, and the promotional photos of the 24 trainees in the first group are displayed on the screen in turn.

There is also a standing sign in the shape of a human being, which is placed beside the World Trade Center Avenue, attracting passers-by to watch.

The promotional photos are not just photos. In the blank space next to the trainees' heads, there is also a manga version of the character introduction, with names, ages, and a column for characteristics.

The feature columns are different, such as: 'gentle and soft little brother', 'natural voice', 'dancing machine', and so on.

The effect is also very good, sparking heated discussions in a short period of time.

This is the announcement of the first group of trainees, and the promotional photos of other people waiting to be released have actually been uploaded to the internal group of trainees, so that everyone can take a look at the effect in advance.

In the small dormitory, all four of them were there.

Sitting around and looking at their photos:

Name: Ming Yang

Age: 17

Features: Enthusiasm like fire, igniting all

Name: Zhong Yu

Age: 15

Features: Cute puppy with wolf eyes

Name: Jin Yue

Age: 15

Traits: I love to laugh, but be careful when I'm not smiling

Name: You Lian

Age: 15

Features: I am a boy

"..."

"..."

"..."

"..."

The four of them had nothing to say for a while.

Ming Yang wiped his face, feeling ashamed and flustered for the first time in his life.

Jin Yue and Zhong Yu were very angry.

Jin Yue couldn't stop laughing, "Is that my profile? Does it look like a pervert in a suspense drama?"

Zhong Yu: "Be content, there is still a dog here."

You Lian thought over and over again, but still felt: "The feature column...you can leave it alone."

It was originally a men's team debut match, and it was a bit strange to write that I was a man in the feature...

Jin Yue felt the same way: "Exactly! Which writer thought of this idea! Just write your name and age, what characteristics do you want!"

It was the first time this boy who was always smiling was so annoyed, and the other three were quite novel.

Ming Yang: "So angry."

Jin Yue scratched his smooth hair, and it turned into a mess, with a real dissatisfied expression: "This is the first public appearance, how important is the first impression, and the favorability is very important."

Zhong Yu patted him on the shoulder: "Forget it, it doesn't matter, anyway, the most important thing in the future is strength... Why haven't you told what the competition system is like?"

Speaking of the competition system, Ming Yang heard something from the president a month ago. He recalled it and said:

"It should be a knockout match. First, individual performances, and then eliminate the people at the bottom according to the ranking."

"In the mid-term grouping, each group will face off, and then the losing group will be eliminated within the group."

"There are not many people left in the later stage. Teams will be arranged, with four to five people in a team. This is basically the finalization of the debut in the future. Then teams will compete with each other, and the winner will debut."

It was the first time for the other three people to hear about it, and after slowly digesting it for a while, the dormitory was silent.

Zhong Yu asked: "Is team formation a free choice of teammates?"

Ming Yang shook his head: "Not necessarily."

Not necessarily...Jin Yue and Zhong Yu looked at each other, that is to say, the teammates may be 'favored', or they may be 'disliked' or even 'disliked'.

"Sorrow... stress..." Jin Yue began to howl.

Then, a soft voice sounded: "Want to decompress?"

Jin Yue was taken aback, and realized that it was You Lian who was looking at him and asking seriously.

Everyone was surprised, this doesn't look like You Lian's style, Jin Yue smiled:

Under the gaze of the three pairs of eyes, You Lian pursed her lips: "Do you want to eat?"

"..."

"..."

"..."

The publicity photos of the first group were released in the morning, and it was the turn of the second group in the afternoon. Zhong Yu and Jin Yue sparked controversy as expected.

[The trainee named Zhong Yu has fierce eyes]

[Jin Yue feels like a gangster, ruffian]

[Both are rappers, it would be nice to have a bit more momentum]

[Idols are only rap, there are no serious rappers, the underground doesn’t recognize them at all]

[The ones who are underground are the ones who are not recognized, okay? When you see someone handsome, you question their strength, is it sour?]

[However, the strength of these two is not clear at present. Just looking at the faces, they are not youthful and sunny, and I feel that they will not be able to reach the end]

[Strange about your aesthetics, or maybe mine?I think the two of them are super handsome. They don't have faces from the assembly line, but they are unique and cool. I really hope that the two of them can make a successful debut. I want to be their No.1 fan! 〕

Most of the comment trends were basically anticipated by the publicity team in advance. Although it is impossible to get undisputed praise from all members, the degree of discussion is so high, it is still beyond the expected range.

Of course, the heat continues to soar.

Therefore, the follow-up plan remained unchanged. The next morning, the third group of trainees led by You Lian showed up on time.

The media and the public waited all night. When the promotional photos came out, almost everyone's attention was on You Lian.

〔The first facial reservation〕

[Really male? 〕

[It is stated in the characteristics that it is a boy, it should be correct]

[I'm looking forward to it, I don't know how strong it is, I hope it's not just a faceless vase]

[Compared with other agencies, LY has always paid more attention to the musical ability of the trainees than the appearance, so you should be able to look forward to it]

[That was in the past, and now in the entertainment circle, people who are good-looking are better than those who are strong. Even if it is for the market, LY has to pay more attention to good-looking people, let alone such good-looking people]

[I don't care what the market is, if you only use your appearance as a gimmick without strength, well, I can't stop someone from becoming a fan, but I definitely won't vote]

[I really don’t understand, when Zhong Yujinyue from the second group came out, she was scolded for being low-quality and unworthy of being an idol, and now You Lian of the third group was scolded for being good-looking after she came out, she must have no strength and is not worthy of being an idol. What kind of person is worthy of being an idol?] Are you guys just picky? 〕

[That is, even Ming Yang in the first group has bad comments, saying that his hair is red to gain attention. I am thinking about Ming Yang's peerless handsome face, and he still needs to use his hair to gain attention? 〕

……

The power of the third group was too great, and the number of comments after the release exceeded expectations, and even the topics of the first and second groups were brought up again. Even after the fourth group was released in the afternoon, the goal did not shift, and it was still concentrated on the first three groups .

And all the trainees in the topic are already busy preparing for the first individual exhibition match.
