The summer of 2010 in Kyoto was still sweltering.

But as the sun sets and the moon rises, the air finally gets a little cooler.

Even though the sky is still full of stars, in the annex building of Huayi Building, there is still a group of trainees who are desperately practicing dance.

"Oh, no, I can't jump, I'm so tired!" a girl screamed, and then sat down on the floor with no image.

"It's still an hour before the lights are turned off, so let's hurry up and practice." ”

"No, I'm going to have cramps in my legs. The girl sitting on the ground looked at the outstretched hand of her friend in front of her and cried bitterly.

Seeing the girl's tired and panting appearance, the girl who stretched out her hand finally stopped insisting and said, "Then rest for ten minutes, and I'll help you get water." ”

Two minutes later, the two girls drank most of the bottles of mineral water in their hands and lay on the floor without an image.

"Xiao Chen (Xiyun) Do you think we can make our debut?" The two suddenly said at the same time, and when they finished speaking, they both found that the other party had said the same thing at the same time, and the two couldn't help laughing.

"I don't have faith. After laughing, Liu Xiyun replied frankly.

"How is it possible, you are the fifth Super Girl, and you still have your fan support club, I have been to see it, there are hundreds of thousands of people, how can the company not let you debut?" Xiao Chen retorted.

In her opinion, although Liu Xiyun has not debuted, she is no different from a debut artist, or rather, she is already a debut artist.

It's just that after hearing Xiao Chen's words, Liu Xiyun shook his head.

"That's not a fan support club, that's just my Weibo, celebrities with hundreds of thousands of fans on the Internet grab a lot of them, and what do I count. Speaking of this, Liu Xiyun laughed self-deprecatingly before continuing.

"The debut of my dream, at least like our predecessor Zhang Liangying, has Nie Wei personally escorted to create the title song, of course, in fact, I envy Alain's predecessor even more. ”

"It's a pity that this dream may only stay in my dream, alas. Liu Xiyun sighed, looking depressed.

Xiao Chen on the side didn't speak, mainly because she didn't know how to comfort Liu Xiyun at this time.

said that Nie Wei would definitely write a song for her, Xiao Chen didn't believe it himself, saying that Nie Wei wouldn't write a song for her, so it was better not to persuade her, in short, this 'problem' made Xiao Chen feel distressed for a while.

It was Liu Xiyun, who sighed with emotion for a while, and quickly regained his vitality.

"Don't think about it so much, isn't the company about to launch a girl group, I must give it a try, I can't become Alain's seniors, I can also be on par with the IN group, I can't enjoy Nie Wei's songs exclusively, but I can at least sing with everyone." ”

After boosting his morale, Liu Xiyun beckoned to Xiao Chen, who was still sitting on the ground: "Come, get up, let's practice for another half an hour, I don't believe I can't learn this dance." ”

"Good. Xiao Chen smiled, and was infected by Liu Xiyun's high-spirited appearance.

After practicing for another half an hour, the two of them sweated profusely and rushed into the company's bathroom, then took a cold shower and returned to the dormitory with wet hair.

At this time, the other two companions in the dormitory were already lying on the bed, one was reading a book, and the other was playing with his mobile phone.

"You're practicing so late, you're working too hard. After seeing Xiao Chen and Liu Xiyun come back, the girl playing with her mobile phone couldn't help but say.

Liu Xiyun shook her shoulders and laughed self-deprecatingly: "Whoever makes Class A the worst dancer for the two of us, I don't want to be topped by the trainees below in the next rating." ”

"Ah, don't talk about it. After hearing Liu Xiyun's words, the girl who was reading the book threw the book aside and cried out in pain.

After shouting these words, the girl rolled over from the bed under the surprised eyes of the other three, and then ran out of the dormitory.

"What's wrong with her?"

"Stop chasing, you let her be quiet. The girl who was playing with her mobile phone saw that Xiao Chen wanted to chase her out, so she stopped it, and then explained: "When you were practicing, the teacher came to the dormitory, and reprimanded Ran Ranran, saying that her recent performance was very bad, and that if she continued like this, she would fall off the next evaluation, so she was under a lot of psychological pressure." ”

After listening to the girl's explanation, Liu Xiyun and Xiao Chen looked at each other, and they both saw deep pressure in each other's eyes.

Including the girl who played with her mobile phone, in fact, a month ago, after knowing that the company began to prepare for the formation of a girl group, all the trainees became nervous.

The A-level trainees seem to be the closest to the girl group that will be formed, but they are also the most stressed.

They not only have to compete with the people around them, but also have to prevent the people below from suddenly rushing up to squeeze out themselves, especially when their debut is just around the corner, none of them are willing to relax.

Don't look at the two people who returned to the dormitory first tonight, it seems that they didn't pay attention to Xiao Chen's diligence, but in fact, it was because they contacted singing skills today, and it was the vocal teacher who prevented them from continuing to practice, for fear that they would hurt their throats, so they were driven back to the dormitory.

"By the way, I forgot to tell you, you don't have to go to the practice room tomorrow morning, we will meet downstairs in the dormitory, and the teacher will take us to watch Nie Weige's new movie together. When it comes to Nie Wei's new movie, this girl finally has a smile on her face.

Liu Xiyun and Xiao Chen also showed expressions of surprise, and Liu Xiyun hurriedly asked, "Are all our trainees going?"

"That's right, I heard that there is a large screening hall that can accommodate hundreds of people. ”

"Wow, that's great, there's a movie to watch tomorrow, no, I'll hurry up and wash up and get a good night's sleep, I've been looking forward to "The Martian" for a long time, go to bed early and get up early, I'm going to be in a good state tomorrow. Liu Xiyun had already begun to find her toiletries as she spoke, and then hurriedly walked towards the door.

When Liu Xiyun came back to the dormitory, she also brought back the girl who ran out before, and the girl ran to the bathroom to cry.

At eleven o'clock in the evening, the lights went out on time.

Xiao Chen hid in the quilt, turned on his mobile phone, and then carefully clicked into the album, and the first photo was a photo with Nie Wei when he came to the practice room.

She still clearly remembers Nie Wei's encouragement to her that day, which is also the motivation for her to grit her teeth and persevere.

Originally, she was just a girl with no goals, she sang completely out of interest, and she never wanted to get anything from singing, Huayi's scouts discovered her, and she just broke in dizzily with curiosity about the entertainment industry and signed a contract with Huayi.

She was lucky, because her talent was very good, so she entered the A level smoothly, so at first she didn't understand the desperate attitude of the girls around her.

It wasn't until she met more friends that she gradually realized this girl's heart to chase her dreams, and it was Nie Wei's affirmation of her that time, so that she finally made up her mind and seriously embarked on the road of an idol.

"I'm going to make it. Xiao Chen looked at the photo on his phone, silently cheering for himself, and Nie Wei's smiling appearance in the photo seemed to respond to her self-affirmation, which made the girl's heart feel warm and full of strength.

The same is true for the boys' dormitory.

Huayi will not only launch a women's group this time, but also a new men's group.

This is a plan that has been made for a long time, after all, there are so many successful idol groups in Japan and South Korea as a precedent, and the industry has always believed that the interval between a company's launch of group groups should be between three and five years.

This time interval can not only ensure that the previous group can have time to develop, but also ensure that the company can always feel the freshness of the market in terms of idol groups.

At present, Huayi's only men's group is the IN group, and they have been debuting for a lot of time, so Wang Zhonglei felt that a new generation of idol groups could be launched after discussing with Nie Wei and a group of high-level leaders.

And this time it will be pushed, and the men's and women's groups will be pushed together, and the launch of the men's group is naturally to undertake the market of the IN combination.

You must know that over the years, several members of the IN group have become very popular, and they have released four albums in a row, with a total sales of nearly two million, which is one of the largest album sales in Asian boy groups in recent years.

At this stage, several members of the group are obviously not willing to be just an idol, so the members of the group also have to start to go through a stage of their own development to expand their personal careers.

At this time, it is also a good opportunity for the company to promote a new men's group.

Although the IN group is not disbanded, the market will naturally be vacant when the members of the group develop separately, and if Huayi does not act, then it can only watch this interest be occupied by the rest of the company.

And the market also needs some new idol faces, and after doing research, Huayi decided to launch a new boy group.

As for the women's group, not to mention, Huayi is still blank in the women's group, or the entire Huaxia is close to blank in the women's group.

You must know that from the beginning of the century to the present for a full decade, the only girl groups that can be called in Chinese are TIS and SHE, these two girl groups can be regarded as first-line girl groups, but in addition to these two, it is difficult for you to name a Chinese girl group that can compete with them.

And now TINS is not as popular as before because of Ajiao, and SHE has also begun to fall into the period of solo development of the group, and the entire Chinese girl group is currently in a completely blank state.

And the entire Chinese market is completely occupied by Japanese and Korean girl groups.

This is also where Nie Wei feels that he has made some mistakes, he was not ready to form a women's group early, of course, it is not too late, the shortest of the company's trainees has been trained for more than ten months, and the longest has been trained for a year and a half.

In addition, they themselves have had a long talent learning process since they were children, and many of them have even reached the professional level in some aspects such as playing, singing, dancing, etc., and their comprehensive quality is no worse than those trainees who have been trained in Japan and South Korea for five or eight years.

What they lack now is a chance, a person who can push them along.

And these elements, Nie Wei can do all of them.

In addition, now is the best time, the super girl group that will rule Asia for several years in the future is currently going through its most difficult moment, if they wait until they are reborn, then any girl group can only be their foil.

Only by taking advantage of this stage to launch a girl group to seize the market, there may be a fight in the future.

After all the trainees turned off the lights, none of them could lie in bed for half an hour and still couldn't sleep, a lot of training every day made them exhausted, and some girls even lay in bed for not a minute, they could already hear her soft cry, obviously having fallen asleep.

Early the next morning, everyone got up on time, and the dormitory canteen, which was originally half full every day, was also full today.

Because all the trainees have been informed, they don't have to go to the practice room today, but to go to the cinema to watch Nie Wei's new movie "The Martian".

For this news, the trainees naturally cheered in bursts.

After all, they are all half-grown children, and the oldest person is only in his early twenties.

The company's official leisure activities are undoubtedly a good project for them to broadcast.

What's more, it is Nie Wei's new movie, and "The Martian" is also the NO.1 of this year's most anticipated movie, such an anticipated film, of course, everyone is very interested.

After everyone had breakfast, they gathered downstairs on time at nine o'clock, and the company's five buses were already on standby, and the trainees of all levels boarded the buses of their own level, and then marched towards the theater together.

I have to mention that the person in charge of these trainees really implanted the concept of rank and comparison into the heads of this group of trainees all the time, and the bus in the morning couldn't see it, but after entering the theater screening hall, this comparison came out again.

For example, A-level trainees can sit in the center of the I-MAX giant screen, and they are all arranged in five or six rows of golden positions.

And the next class B is around class A, which is also in the fourth, fifth, sixth, or seventh rows, but the position is slightly biased.

As for the rest, according to their respective nouns, the position is getting worse and worse, and when it is the turn of Class F, they can basically only sit in the rear, and some unlucky ones can even only sit in the corner of the rear.

This kind of hierarchical ranking method also allows these half-grown children to deeply understand the reality of society, and they also compete with each other in their hearts.

After all, they don't know much about what fear is at their current age, and they also have blind confidence in themselves, at least most of them think that they are no worse than anyone else, even if they are in class F, there are many people who have the heart to go to class A.

As everyone was seated, the person in charge came to the stage again and said something, mainly to arrange a task, that is, to tell everyone to go back and write a movie after reading, this news made the scene resounded with a sigh.

Obviously, whether at school or at work, homework is always one of the most annoying things for children.

Fortunately, the lights in the screening room were soon extinguished, and as the screen gradually lit up, the "Martian" that was about to officially start had attracted the attention of all the trainees, making them forget the troubles of homework for a while.
