In the No. 1 conference room of LOVE company, Lee Jae-cheol, who was one of the judges, came belatedly.

"Jiwon, why are you?" he said in surprise.

Ha Ji Won, who was originally smiling, turned his face darkened directly, and said word by word: "Zai Zhe, don't you want to see me?"

Lee Jae-cheol waved his hand again and again, "Of course not, it's just a little strange that Jihyun has become you." ”

"It was I who asked Jihyun for her to give me the judges. Ha Ji Won blinked.

"Uh, can I ask why?"

"Nothing, just never seen the draft and wanted to come and see. She said rightly.

"Okay. The man sat down beside her, turned his head to look at Quan Bao'er, and took the initiative to speak: "Bao'er, how is the album practiced." ”

"Ahh

"Am I so terrible......" Looking at Kwon Bao'er, whose cheeks were flushed, Lee Jae-cheol felt helpless, originally he wanted to ease the relationship, since he blurted out that sentence, Kwon Bao'er used to blush as long as he saw him, and it was okay when he was not there when he was practicing, as long as someone was present, his voice trembled non-stop, like plucking the strings.

"How come!" the girl shouted, realizing that she had overreacted, her face turned a little redder, and she said like a mosquito: "The teacher is not terrible at all......"

"Hey. Seeing this, Ha Ji Won touched him with his elbow, "What did you do to Bo'er?"

"I ......" Lee Jae-chul was extremely embarrassed, but he didn't know how to answer, and he couldn't tell her that I commented that the student's underwear fit well.

Fortunately, Quan Baoer explained: "It has nothing to do with the teacher, I was thinking about the problem of the album just now, and I was scared." ”

The fox glanced at the two suspiciously, and Ha Ji Won didn't say anything more.

"That, Myeong-hwan, let's announce the start. Lee Jae-cheol said.

"Announcing the start. Park Myung-hwan instructed the staff.

"LOVE trainee audition, from now on, please enter in order according to the number plate. ”

Unlike the first audition, this time the overall age of the candidates dropped again, with the majority of candidates aged 12 or 13. But what remains unchanged is that it is still mainly singing, and there is less dancing.

After looking at nearly thirty of them, Lee Jae-cheol said, "Pause. ”

Park Myung-hwan announced that it would be stopped.

"Bao'er, I remember you learned to dance when you were a child, right?" he asked.

"Hmm. Not as shy as before, Quan Bao'er nodded.

"Minghuan, my previous decision, there was something wrong. Lee Jae-chul frowned, "Bao'er should not be just a simple singer, but an all-round artist, being confined to a certain field is the most fatal problem of stars." ”

Previously, he had never thought of this, and his long-term research on the European and American entertainment industry solidified his thinking. European and American singers can only sing, and nothing else is known because they face the world and have countless fans. But South Korea is different, the population base is small, and the fan base will be much smaller, even if he Li can continue to create, but one day, fans will be aesthetically fatigued. For example, rock 'n' roll, which was once very popular, is still popular in the United States, but it has declined in South Korea, and only those who once stood at the top are still famous.

Of course, there are not no stars who can eat all over Korea with a good singing voice, but there are only a few, and they are not only singers for people, but also symbols of the times.

Not only South Korea, but also many Asian countries, the entertainment trend is no longer a road to the dark, and multi-directional development is a more common choice. Then it is inevitable that all-round artists will become the mainstream.

At the end, he looked at Quan Bao'er, his eyes were full of doting, "Of course, this is just my personal opinion, and it depends on Bao'er how to choose in the end." ”

However, the album of Boa XI is already on the agenda, and it is known that it will be released soon. Park Myung-hwan hesitated.

"These are the little things. He said lightly.

Quan Bao'er looked at the man intently, as if sensing his emotions, and asked softly, "According to what the teacher said, how far can I go?"

Lee Jae-chul reached out and stroked her green silk and said with a smile: "At least, Asia is famous." ”

Hearing this, a smile appeared on the girl's face, "Then let the teacher arrange it." "Then I can truly stand beside you.

Once you make this choice, it means that the future will be much harder, and even if you don't have to do hard work in dance, acting is essential. Lee Jae-chul said seriously.

"Will the teacher accompany me?" she said earnestly.

Stunned for a moment, Lee Jae-chul nodded and smiled warmly, "Of course." ”

"Then don't be afraid. ”

Under the table, the hands of the two shook hands again, no one took the initiative, everything was natural.

Ha Ji Won on the side wondered, why did it feel strange when it was obviously a very loving master-apprentice interaction? It seemed to have a pink breath......

"Go ahead. Lee Jae-chul looked up and said.

A tall girl walked in.

"Hello oppa, hello judges. She bowed, a smile on her face.

After the last audition, several fans of Lee Jae-chul have become accustomed to it, but Ha Ji Won, she didn't pay attention to this at all.

"Hello, what are you going to perform?" asked Lee Jae-chul.

"Dance. The girl's smile did not diminish, and she answered crisply.

"It's rare to see a dance, so come on. ”

"Inside. ”

Taking out her mobile phone, the girl turned on the music, and a familiar tune sounded in the room.

"Please don't go", Dream Concert live version. Recorded by fans and uploaded to his fans club.

Lee Jae-chul was surprised that someone actually used this as background music, that is, there was no object for reference to the girl's dance.

The prelude sounded, and she began to move. The song was supposed to be played on the piano, but considering that there was no piano at the scene, he chose jazz drums, so the tune was heavy, and the girl's dance movements were also very powerful, which was very compatible.

Her dance moves should be choreographed by herself, although they are not too difficult, and they are enough to reflect her solid basic skills, probably due to nervousness, and there are two mistakes in the middle, but they can be completely ignored.

Panting and stopping, the girl's smile was still there.

"What's your name?" Mr. Lee said.

"Kwon Yoo-ri. ”

"Yuli, did you make up your own dance?"

"Ne, I've always wanted to dance to OPPA, so I ......" Kwon Yoo-ri scratched her face, "It's not too good, OPPA smiled." ”

"No, I think it's great. Lee Jae-chul smiled, "So you can pass." ”

As soon as his words fell, Quan Bao'er moved his fingers like jealousy.

"Really, thank you oppa!" the girl said with surprise on her face, "Can I take a picture with oppa?"

"Hmm. He got up and left his seat.

Quan Yuli picked up her mobile phone, walked up to Quan Bao'er, and said, "Bao'er senior, can you help?"

"Of course. She took her phone and puffed out her cheeks to take pictures of the two.

"Quan Yuli, next Monday, I will sign a contract with my parents at the trainee management department. Park Myung-hwan advised.

"Inside. The girl took the phone, "Thank you, senior." Turning to look at Lee Jae-chul, "Goodbye, oppa." ”

"Goodbye. "Girls who like to laugh. He said in his heart.

Sitting back in his position, Li grabbed a jade hand again.

Ha Ji Won was shocked, staring at him with wide eyes, and his pretty face turned crimson in the blink of an eye.

"Well, how do you feel that Bao'er's hands are a little different, so cold, and they seem to be a little bigger. Someone thought to himself. Just as he was thinking, someone tapped his left hand.

Lee Jae-chul slowly twisted his head to the left, and his eyes were Kwon Bo'er's delicate and reddish face. He forced himself to calm down, let go of his right hand, and hated to chop it off.

Without saying anything, Ha Ji Won withdrew his hand, his eyes flustered.

When the subsequent candidates come in, they will see a bizarre scene, the two women next to Lee Jae-cheol, all bowing their heads, looking like they have done something wrong.

………………

The first day of auditions ended, LOVE company.

"Let the teacher of the dance class report tomorrow, and you don't have to wait until October. Lee Jae-cheol instructed, "Remember, there is only one requirement, there must be more types of dances, and she will be in charge of Bao'er's dance in the future." ”

"What about acting classes?" Park Myung-hwan asked.

Lee Jae-chul looked at him with a smile.

"I see. "You have to teach your feelings personally, if you are proficient in dance, can you even save the dance teacher?" Thinking of this, he suddenly felt a little regretful. Alas, that kind of dance teacher, the annual salary is not cheap.

"There is also the issue of all-round artists, and the girl group should also be included. ”

"Too much training can be very time-consuming. Park Myung-hwan was puzzled.

"Then it is cultivated separately, and one or several people are responsible for a part. Look for characteristics and teach students according to their aptitude. Famous quotes from Huaxia. "The current first-generation girl group, the division of labor among the members is extremely unclear, and Lee Jae-chul only thought of this today.

"Don't be in a hurry, first arrange the classes evenly to avoid too much pressure, we have to prepare for long-term training, which is not suitable for launching a girl group in recent years. ”

"Wait until the members of the group are basically determined, and then focus on tilting. ”

Hearing this, Park Myung-hwan was impressed in his heart, and some people's talent and foresight were really admired by others.

"Okay, I made a note of it. ”

………………

LOVE's report, S.M, JYP, YG and other companies have seen it, and they are also helpless while gritting their teeth, and there is no other way to change this backward infrastructure.

In the president's office of the S.M company headquarters in Apgujeong, the two are arguing fiercely.

"Kim Young-wook XI, there is only this road in front of us. Li Xiuman said in a deep voice, "If LOVE's public image is always better than ours, the company will lose a large number of trainee resources, for us, what is the most important thing, you should be clear." ”

"But after all, LOVE is just a nascent company, and its influence is not as good as ours, and there are three groups about to be launched right now, do you mean to cancel their debut plans?" Kim Young-wook frowned.

"Compared to not having a backup artist in the future, it is already a very easy result. ”

"Okay, even if the group is canceled and withdrawn, the funds are recovered, the apartments and canteens are rebuilt, the infrastructure is upgraded, and even the trainee contract is changed, will it definitely attract newcomers?" Kim Young-wook slapped the table, "Lee so-man, that also means that we will lose our influence in the next few years and will not be able to appear in the public eye, what should we do?"

Hearing this, Li Xiuman was silent. After a while, he walked to the sofa and sat down, rubbed his temples and said helplessly: "LOVE company, so ambitious." ”

"yes. Kim Young-wook agreed. This is not the first time they have argued today, they can't agree every time, the two have very strong personalities, and in the company, although he is the president, Li Xiuman, as the largest shareholder and artist director, is enough to compete with him.

Can't turn his face, and he can't do it, Jin Yingxu feels that he is very aggrieved as the president.
