Li Xiaoli hugged Shirley and couldn't help laughing anymore: "Hey Yigu, my silly sister, I originally thought that you were much more mature and sensible when you debuted than when I first met you, but I didn't expect you to be the simple Shirley, who seems to be mature and stable, but in fact, I don't know a lot of things, and I can't figure out the situation." ”

Looking at Shirley's puzzled eyes, Li Xiaoli smiled and said, "You want to rely on your own strength to prove that you can succeed, it's actually that simple, right?" ”

Shirley nodded honestly, and Lee Hyo-ri continued: "But have you ever thought that this is simply impossible. ”

"You must know that in this world, there is really no one who can really succeed on their own. In fact, in my opinion, among the people I know and understand, the only one who can do this seems to be Jin Yufan alone. ”

"OPPA?" Shirley couldn't help but stare at her acting skills, and looked at Lee Hyori in disbelief.

Not only Shirley, but also the F(x) members were dumbfounded, looking at Lee Hyori with a shocked look and a hint of confusion.

"Why, I'm surprised!" The five F(x) people all nodded meaningfully, looking at the reaction of the F(x) five people, Li Xiaoli couldn't help laughing, turned his head to look at Shirley and said seriously: "Shirley, you are still too young, and you don't understand many things, and you can't see clearly." ”

"You have always said that you want to rely on your own strength and hard work to succeed, and you don't want to rely on anyone's strength and help, this sentence is very wrong. Because the most critical point, which you haven't figured out yet, is that like us artists, if you want to succeed, you rely entirely on your personal strength and hard work. It's not enough. ”

"Now that I've said that, I'll tell you about it carefully, and you should listen carefully. Holding Shirley in his arms, Lee Hyo-ri sighed and said, "First of all, we have to be clear and figure it out." The necessary factors for artists to succeed are many smaller, and we won't mention these for the time being, but there are actually several big factors, and if any of them are missing, you will not be able to succeed. ”

"First of all, it's a matter of your own attitude, if you don't have that attitude. If you don't do things seriously, such a person, let alone an artist, will not succeed in anything. ”

"Secondly, you have to endure loneliness, no matter how many years you are a trainee, you can't see your debut, and you can't see hope. It can even be in a very confused state. We were fine at the time, after all, we were more dependent on talent to eat in those days. Because there is no condition and enough time for us to go through rigorous and detailed training. Now look at you, every newcomer who debuted has experienced several years of trainee career, which not only laid a solid foundation for you, but also endured loneliness after a long time. This became the key. ”

"It's not just a trainee, in fact, even after your debut, you may encounter a low period, and then there will be no itinerary, and the company seems to have given up on you. Fans also left one after another, and even no income was available, and life became a problem, and at that time, you seemed to be able to endure the loneliness and that kind of suffering, gritting your teeth and persevering. ”

Lee Hyori's words made the five F(x) instantly silent, the life of a trainee, the members of F(x) have all experienced it, so they naturally know what the situation is and how difficult the process is.

Many trainees in the same period are more talented and stronger than themselves, but because they can't hold on and can't survive, they take the initiative to give up.

As for the trough period after his debut, I haven't experienced this yet, and I don't know what the situation is, but I believe it will definitely be difficult, just look at Lee Hyori's expression and sigh.

"The trainees are not bad, but the most important thing is the trough period after their debut, which is really the most difficult time. I can tell you very responsibly, there are so many seniors who committed suicide in our country's entertainment industry, except for one layer of emotional and one layer of debt problems, the remaining eight layers are depression. Among these eight layers of depression, in addition to some personal situations, there are also attacks from Anti and netizens, at least half of which are related to the trough. In other words, at least four of the ten artists who committed suicide finally went to the extreme of suicide because of a series of encounters and situations during the trough. ”

F(x) is not calm this time, only the trough period after his debut, although everyone knows that it is difficult, but after all, they have not experienced it, and they don't think it is a big deal. But now with Lee Hyo-ri's words, many people have even embarked on the extreme path of suicide, and this time, the five F(x) people are stunned, and some are frightened.

"Forget it, you have just debuted, and there is no need to tell you in so much detail about these, so as not to hit your self-confidence, in case I say that you don't want to continue to develop in the entertainment industry, wouldn't this be a loss for fans. Forget it, let's continue with our previous topic, artists want to succeed, several important factors. ”

Li Xiaoli stretched out four fingers and said: "I don't know what others think, but in my opinion, if an artist wants to succeed, there must be at least four factors." Brokers, strengths, connections and opportunities. ”

"Needless to say, the brokerage company can be your strong backing, can protect you, give you publicity and planning, and can help you resolve accidents if you have an accident, and at the same time can also give you resources to make you develop faster. ”

"Strength, the strength I am talking about here is not just singing and dancing, it doesn't mean that you can sing and dance. My strength here, how to say more, should be said to be talent. It's very simple, that is, whether you can compose music and lyrics, be able to write scripts, be able to plan variety shows, in short, in addition to singing and dancing, what other characteristics can you get to attract more attention and fan support, to ensure that you go further and more steadily. ”

"Uh~~~ That's right, just like the current music scene, many children have just debuted, and they have begun to participate in the hosts of major TV programs, including some people to try acting, which is actually a kind of strength I am talking about, but this is a virtual strength, not a real strength. ”

"Connections, needless to say, you have made your debut, although the time is short, I believe you should know the importance of connections. I can say responsibly that there are a lot of connections. Even more important than the brokerage company and strength, it is more important to help you. Because as long as you have connections, the brokerage company does not support it, and many friends will support it, giving you opportunities and giving you space for development. Well-connected. There are more opportunities, and the development of the room will naturally be bigger. Even if the network is large enough, even if it is a brokerage company, any seniors in the circle, including many high-level executives of TV stations, dare not despise you, after all, you have a wide network, and if you offend you alone, it is very likely to offend a large group of people around you. This can be seen from Yoo Jae-shi's OPPA. Yoo Jae-seok's OPPA connections are definitely the top in our Korean entertainment industry, although Yoo Jae-seok OPPA is just a host, strictly speaking just a funny artist, and has the lowest status, but so what, with Yoo Jae-seok's connections and network, who dares to laugh at Yoo Jae-seok's OPPA!"

F(x) five nodded, agreeing with Lee Hyo-ri's words. Yoo Jae-seok is definitely a great god. Although he is just a funny artist and host, Liu Zaishi's current status and connections. Whether it is a TV station or any brokerage company, even including top directors and top actors, who dares to despise Liu Zaishi.

"Finally, there is opportunity, which is very vague and unspeakable. But I have to admit that opportunities are opportunities, and there are real ones. No matter how strong you are, if you don't have a chance, you can't make your debut. On the other hand, you are not strong, but you can make your debut if you have the opportunity. No matter how good your debut development is, there is no opportunity, maybe because of an accident can knock you down and underestimate, but you have opportunities, the development is not very good, the opportunity is coming, all kinds of opportunities are coming, it can definitely take you to fly like development, this is the opportunity. ”

After taking a sip of water, Lee Hyori was silent for a moment and continued: "In my opinion, if an artist wants to be successful, these four factors are the key and the foundation. Of course, some people are too strong in some aspects, these four factors can get rid of one, they can also succeed, and even get rid of two, they can also be successful, but there are too few such people, basically any artist wants to be successful, these four points are necessary factors. ”

"Ernie, could it be that the Jin Yufan OPPA you mentioned before is the only person who can succeed by relying on his own strength, is it that the four factors of Jin Yufan OPPA are too strong in some aspects, so they can achieve success, and other people can't do it. ”

"Of course, in my opinion, except for Jin Yufan, the only one in the entertainment industry who can do this, and it is very prominent is Xu Taizhi and the children back then. After all, Xu Taizhi and the children did not have a brokerage company or a planning company at the beginning, they all relied on their own efforts to work hard in the entertainment industry, and it was not easy to develop so successfully. But in general, the success of Xu Taizhi and the children is irreproducible, because they had an opportunity at that time, and they happened to be in the critical period when solo singers in the music world were weak and the team group began to be strong, so they instantly seized the entire Korean music scene and achieved the greatest idol group in Korea. ”

Lee Hyo-ri squinted his eyes and remembered the madness of Xu Taizhi and the children, and couldn't help but sigh: "So, Xu Taizhi and the children met an opportunity at that time, and it was still a big opportunity, it seems that all the idol group halos are added to Xu Taizhi and the children." Therefore, even if Xu Taizhi and the children do not have a brokerage company, they can succeed on their own, and they are still very successful. And after that, whether it is the so-called idol ancestor HOT or the most successful idol group TVXQ, in fact, in South Korea, it cannot be compared with the popularity and influence of Seo Taezhi and the children back then, after all, at least half of the entire people at that time were fans of Seo Taezhi and the children, and the national president was not talking about fun. ”

F(x) is young and has not experienced the era of Seo Tae-zhi and his children, although he was shocked to listen to Lee Hyori's description, but in fact, he still can't understand how great and terrifying the impact of Seo Tae-zhi and his children on the Korean music scene, the Korean entertainment industry, and even the whole of South Korea is.

"Xu Taizhi and the children had an opportunity at that time, so if they were able to succeed, they could not care about the brokerage company that was one of the four factors. Similarly, in my opinion, Jin Yufan is also the only person who can succeed with his own strength, and this strength only refers to the strength of the four factors, because Jin Yufan's strength in this area is too strong, even if there is no brokerage company, no one buys, and no opportunity can succeed. ”

"Of course, Jin Yufan debuted, and I know very well what the situation is. After all, we were all in DSP at the time. When Jin Yufan debuted, in order to attract attention, DSP directly said that Jin Yufan was a solo singer who could change the phenomenon of the team group's monopoly in the music world, which undoubtedly brought huge attention to Jin Yufan, and at the same time, it also came to huge pressure and attacks. From DSP's point of view, the publicity at the time was a success. But as far as Kim Yufan is concerned, the pressure and disadvantages brought by this propaganda are far more powerful than the benefits. ”

Because of DSP's promotional slogan at that time, when Jin Yufan debuted, he was attacked and abused by countless fans of the team, and even suffered from the difficulties and disdain of many seniors. As far as I know, in the half year since Jin Yufan first debuted, every trip was made under the difficulties and instructions of his predecessors. For this reason alone, the planning of the DSP brokerage company did not give Jin Yufan any support, and he also lost the support of the brokerage company, and all the seniors were difficult, so don't think about the connections. It is impossible at all, in fact, Jin Yufan's personality does not know whether it is born or the difficulties of the predecessors at that time have too much influence. Now Jin Yufan doesn't make many friends, and his circle of friends is also very small. ”

"As for the opportunities, what opportunities can there be, although the first generation of the top ten groups entered the end of the period, they still continued to be active in the Korean music scene and continued to dominate the Korean music scene. Kim Yu Fan is a solo singer, almost all the seniors don't like it, and the agency has more resources for Crystal Boy and us Fin.K.L, and there is almost no help for Jin Yu Fan, in this case. Jin Yufan can be said to have nothing in terms of brokerage companies, connections and opportunities. ”

"Jin Yufan's success depends on his own strength, absolute strength, which is the most powerful and terrifying thing about Jin Yufan. Looking at the five F(x) who were listening carefully, Lee Hyo-ri also smiled and waved his hand: "How about the specifics, I don't bother to say, you just think about the songs created by Jin Yufan, as well as variety shows, including TV series and movie scripts, you know what the concept of Jin Yufan's strength is." ”

There's nothing to think about, since Jin Yufan debuted, whether it is in song writing, TV series and movie scripts, or variety show planning, including stage performances, vocal music, and acting skills, he has been recognized and praised by countless people.

Now, Kim Yu-beom is not only a national standard, but also the first talent recognized by everyone in the whole of South Korea.

Looking at F(x)'s reaction expression, Li Xiaoli smiled and said, "Jin Yufan is really too demonic and rebellious in terms of strength. That's why I said that only Jin Yufan alone can truly succeed by relying on his own strength. Even if you don't have a brokerage company, you can still create songs on the Internet, and you can also become popular, so that countless brokerage companies come to your door to sign a contract. Maybe it's to submit a script, or maybe it's a variety show plan, and it can also make countless brokerage companies and TV stations come to the door and want to sign a contract with Jin Yufan. It can be said that Jin Yufan can rely on his own strength to create a zào opportunity for himself. ”

Li Xiaoli looked at Shirley gently: "You said that you want to rely on your own strength to achieve success, which is obviously unrealistic. Whether it is the agency behind you, or the connections, including the opportunity, you have it, success is normal, failure is called undesirable. ”

Without waiting for Shirley to say anything, Lee Hyo-ri stopped Shirley and continued: "You are Kim Yu-bem's sister, and almost everyone in the whole of South Korea knows about this matter as long as they pay a little attention to the entertainment industry." This alone, do you know what it means, it means that because your brother is Kim Yu-beom, it doesn't matter what it is? Whether it's Company M, or many people in the circle, including all aspects of the TV station's program team, will treat you specially, the company will give you the best treatment, the seniors are willing to chat with you, and the TV station's program teams in all aspects will also take care of you, don't you feel it yourself?"

Shirley couldn't help but fall into deep thought, and after thinking about it carefully, she found that this was really the case.

In S? When Company M was a trainee, the company was indeed very different from other trainees, taking care of itself very much, and not letting himself work too hard and tired, especially after Jin Yufan was discharged from the army, this situation became more and more obvious.

Even the assessment of the final members of F(x), Shirley felt that it was a bit child's play, giving Shirley the feeling that it was just a process, and it seemed that before the assessment, the company had already determined that she would become a member of F(x).

Not to mention going home to sleep, and even having one day off every week, the trainee subsidy is more than that of the trainees in the same period, and the best teachers are arranged to attend classes, and they have never been corporal punishment.

The same is true after the debut, many seniors and TV station staff are happy to chat with themselves.

Originally, Shirley took this qiē for granted, but now after Li Xiaoli's explanation, Shirley finally understood that this qiē was actually because of Jin Yufan.

"Girl, you are Jin Yufan's sister, this can't be changed, even if you don't think so, Jin Yufan doesn't want to help you. But as long as it is a normal person, he will take into account Jin Yufan behind you and have to look at you differently. This is like an uncle fan, if you know that the uncle fan is a high-level TV station, or a certain big person, or a high-ranking official, can you still treat him as an ordinary fan, an ordinary uncle!"

patted Shirley's little face, Li Xiaoli smiled and said, "So, you girl really thinks too much about herself, and she is also drilling." You are Jin Yufan's sister, the only sister, everyone knows this, and it can't be changed. Your whole life has been associated with Jin Yufan, which is your advantage, your connections, not only are you unhappy, but you also complain about Jin Yufan in turn, which really makes Jin Yufan a little sad.
