After all, where have I seen you

In the conference room on the second floor, President Jin Shengyou called the company's trainees who have practiced for more than three years to give a speech. Most of them are over 18 years old.

"I don't want to delay everyone's future. I'll tell you frankly that according to the company's current plan, within the next four years, we will only launch one idol singer group. My place is small, and I won't stop you like other companies. Job hopping. Those who are willing to leave to develop in other companies, those who are willing to go back to study, and those who are willing to transform into choreographers, producers or actors, I absolutely support. So, the current group, the previous tentative members are six, now change In order to plan, in addition to replacing one member, I plan to add another new member. That is to say, I will select one to debut based on your performance in the next few months."

President Jin licked his lips, looked at the trainees present for a while, and then continued: "Then, I will explain the position of the member I want to you in detail, so that you can make a choice. Youth is short and precious, and I don't want to waste children's time like other companies." He paused, "So, according to the latest revision of the plan, I need a rapper now..."

People who are good at singing and dancing listen to this moment and their soul wanders away. The result of their practice for several years, from junior high school to high school, every night, every weekend, every time they skip class, the tears and sweat left by them all day and night melt The mist dissipated.

"This rapper must have a certain ability to write lyrics. Those who meet the requirements can choose to stay. In the end, I will compare your comprehensive abilities and pick one before this year's college entrance examination. I don't want those who are not selected to miss the college entrance examination. I hope ..."

At this time, a child stood up awkwardly, kicked the chair aside by him, and ran out of the conference room wiping away tears.

President Jin's words were interrupted by his actions. To be honest, Jin Shengyou didn't know that trainee at all, but he was familiar with it. He couldn't name all the children present here. "Finally, the door of our company's behind-the-scenes staff is always open to everyone. I welcome anyone who thinks he is talented or hardworking enough to join our company. Whether it is in front of the scene or behind the scenes, I will not treat him badly."

Having said that, today's meeting is over, the children nodded and bowed, "Understood."

They walked out quietly, sighing and discussing, "Isn't it just driving us away in disguise?"

"If he doesn't say that, don't you go?"

"That's right. In other big companies, no one cares about whether you live or die, and there is no one to guide you to the end. He just made it clear and let us make our own choices."

"Anyway, in the last round of competition, we were outcompeted by Jin Chengxun and the others. What's more, even if we entered the debut reserve, wouldn't we still be dismissed, just like Zhewan."

"Zhe Wan's strength itself is not that great. Wasn't he chosen as a facade, for fans?"

"It's not safe to get in by face? The trainees in our company just don't look good."

"Hey... all of you," the person discussing turned around to look at the fellow rap professionals behind, "Do you really want to stay?"

Another older person said: "Stay here, and work harder at the end, it's just a few months to live or die."

"Actually, President Jin is quite a nice person."

"Anyway, I've had enough of this kind of life. My parents plan to send me to study abroad."

"I plan to take the film department."

"I don't know... I don't know what to do in the future."

At this time, manager Li Zhengxi walked towards them with the people who had debuted in reserve, and there was a new face among them that they had never seen before.

Everyone entered the conference room with mixed emotions. As soon as they entered the door, President Jin waved to Song Zhiyi who was standing at the back, "Zhiyi, sit here." He patted the seat closest to him.

"Sit down, sit down."

"Do you all know each other?"

"Yeah." The other children responded indiscriminately, but in fact they didn't greet Song Zhiyi properly at all.

"No," Song Zhiyi pressed bluntly, "I don't know anyone else except Brother Chengxun."

"Oh," President Jin looked at Zhiyi with a smile, "It's okay, you two will be together for a long time in the future, and you will gradually get to know each other very well."

"Is our youngest in a bad mood today?" President Jin said.

Kim Seung-hoon covered it and said, "When Sehyung and I were practicing dance just now, there was a dispute." In fact, he was unhappy because Cheolwan left the team. The six of them lived together for three months.Maybe it's because the two are about the same age, and Se Hyung was closest to him when Chul Wan was around.

President Jin smiled when he heard this, "I see," then he clapped his hands, "Then I'll get to the point. There are a lot of things to talk about today, so I'll explain the major premise to everyone first." He turned his gaze to the youngest, "From today onwards, the people who have entered this group, that is, everyone here. Unless you give up, I will not kick anyone out. Compared with other companies, there are definitely more than twice as many candidates for the debut reserve than us. But I I don’t want to bring you a sense of insecurity and instability like that. The plan has been completely finalized, and I will not let the company formulate other alternative plans. Our combination is still short of one rapper. Then there will be three rappers in the future, four As for the last member, it has not been decided yet, I will choose from the remaining trainees. Then, in terms of dance, Kim Seung-hoon is the strongest, I hope you can learn more choreography in the future.”

"Uh-huh."

"Keep your hearts in your stomachs, I will definitely let you debut. Then your practice will be strengthened, and you may not be able to go to school again, take a leave of absence or something, or you need to take other courses, or study in art high school The courses are similar to those of the company. Those who apply for self-study cultural courses can ask Brother Zhengxi for help if they have problems with the procedures. He will be your agent in the future, and you can ask him for any questions."

Li Zhengxi nodded to everyone, "I know everything."

"He will also live in your dormitory."

"Ah..." Everyone felt that the dormitory was already crowded enough.

"Do you think the dormitory is crowded?"

"Yes." Song Zhiyi said straightforwardly.

"Hehe..." President Jin couldn't help laughing, "It's just right to squeeze, because you don't make money now, and I'm poor, and the shareholders are reluctant to spend money to change houses for you. If you want to live in a better place, I want a big house, I want two people to live in one room. Use all your abilities, use your best efforts, make the best work, attract the most fans, make money by yourself, and change the house yourself! What kind of change? The house depends entirely on how many albums you sell, how many concerts you hold, how many commercial performances and endorsements you take!"

"Yes!" Everyone answered in unison.

"From tomorrow, you will train for more than 16 hours a day. In addition to the essential dancing and singing, the training courses also include: manners, etiquette, artist quality, psychological courses, musical instruments, language, art skills, acting skills Wait, finally, you have to learn lyrics and composition. The depth of learning is completely different from when you were a trainee. Please take these courses well, because this is the teacher I paid a lot of money for. Don’t waste it! Especially the lyrics and composition, I hope that each of you, pay attention to everyone! You must study hard, and don’t put all your hopes of creating an album on the company’s producers. If you have special circumstances, please come to me directly to ask for leave. Those who complain and want to quit , please come to me directly, so that I can find someone to replace you in time."

"Yes!" The tidy answer was louder than last time.

Song Zhi raised his hand: "I may ask for leave to go to Daegu next week."

Everyone turned their eyes to him in unison, and President Kim looked at him again and laughed.
