Chapter 136: If you only have a face, you can't make your debut
Although she can often see groups of people coming to "besiege" the artist's meal at the door of the company, Dong Shihui has always felt that those people and things are far away from her, like another world that is out of reach: However, when she was sandwiched between Lu Han and Wang Nanqian, two artists who had already debuted as members of the EXO group, at that moment she seemed to have entered the world of artists.
Even if she lowered her head and didn't look around, she could feel the presence of those raised mobile phones: it made her feel her heart beat faster and her mouth dry: probably because she had never been "watched" by high school girls, Dong Shihui always felt as if her chest was blocked by something before she walked into the door of S.M. Company, and even her breathing seemed to become less smooth. This is just facing the mobile phone camera, she already feels as if her body has frozen, Dong Shihui really can't imagine what she will become if one day she is actually standing on the stage and surrounded by cameras.
"Is this the world of artists......" After finally entering the S.M. company and ending that short and difficult journey, Dong Shihui, who felt that her legs were a little weak, couldn't help but sigh softly: When she didn't come to South Korea in China, although there were many boys around her who pursued her, and occasionally some people secretly photographed her when she went to the street, but those moods were completely different from what she just felt.
"The world of artists is not so simple," the female trainee's voice was already very slight, but it still did not escape Lu Han's ears: Lu Han, who was very athletic before his debut, had hardly walked out of the door of the dormitory since his debut, and he couldn't help but laugh when he heard the simple emotion of this female trainee who had not been in the industry for a short time and had not yet understood what kind of entertainment agency S.M. company was, he couldn't help laughing," There are some things, after your debut, you will naturally understand, it is not so simple to mix in our company......"
Originally, it was just subconsciously talking to herself, but she was really listened to by the seniors around her, which made the girl's face turn red all of a sudden: if she hadn't held a lunch box in both hands, she would definitely cover her face with her hands now.
"What are you doing to scare people if you have nothing to do?" pushed Lu Han from behind, Wang Nanqian angrily interrupted the "Lu Han Heart-to-Heart Talk" link that didn't seem to be over: For trainees, the most important thing is confidence in themselves and hope for the future - although Lu Han's words were unintentional, maybe they would hit the girl, "Then I'll go down, call me if there's something." ”
"I know, the children already have something in their hearts, brother, don't delay the practice. Because there was still an outsider there, Lu Han couldn't make it clear and straightforward, so he had to give a final euphemistic advice before going upstairs, "You also know that it's very annoying for children to quarrel." ”
The hottest season of the year has passed, and as the temperature drops, some of the air conditioners in S.M. have stopped working in September: of course, the central air conditioning in the above-ground part of the artists and staff works almost all year round, while the underground part that exists as a place for trainees to survive is not worth the company's investment - after all, out of dozens of people, there may be only five or six people who can make their debut in the end.
When I answered the phone in the morning, although I also "broke into" the underground once, but the time was too short - it was not until the end of the day that I walked into the underground part of the company again, a familiar and unfamiliar place, felt the pungent smell of sweat all over the space, and listened to the chaotic music from various rooms because of the not so good quality soundproofing equipment, Wang Nanqian felt that she had really returned to the underground, to the place where she had struggled for seven years.
I returned to the world I knew best.
I heard that the new building that the company has invested heavily in has officially started operation, and most of the staff and artists will move to the new building, and now this building will become a "paradise" for trainees - these children may finally be able to walk to the ground, but the distance of their debut has changed from a few stairs to a few blocks.
"Haven't you been practicing hard lately?" Just being in this space, Wang Nanqian's mind had already uncontrollably surfaced a lot of memories and scenes, and the tone that had been a little angry because of exhaustion also became gentler, "Is the course going well?"
"It's just that my Korean is not very good, and I often can't understand what others are saying...... I'll try to, though. ”
"Your efforts are to be called out to buy supper, and you have to pay for your own money?"
"If I could get closer to everyone......
"For us foreigners, only when you can get into the top 10 in every assessment, those Koreans will really take you seriously - until then you are just a guy who doesn't need to be noticed at all and can leave at any time, in this place, you can only make friends after you use your strength to make others agree with you," The trainees who will stay in the company at this time are basically still practicing, so there is no figure in the corridor, and Wang Nanqian, who is the first to walk in the front, is not worried that his words will be heard by others: even if they are heard, few of the trainees can understand Chinese, "But, didn't I ask Zhuxun and Shiqi to take care of you before?"
"They were selected into the public trainee program some time ago, and recently they have been receiving separate guidance from senior artists and other vocal and dance teachers, so they are not with me, "As a newcomer, she can have this kind of seniors who have been working as trainees for seven years to give her one-on-one intimate guidance, and this senior happens to be an artist she has liked before she came to South Korea, Dong Shihui feels that although she has spent some unjust money, she has earned back all her value at this moment," They seem to have been working hard lately, so I didn't dare to bother them with anything. ”
"Open trainees...... I've heard about it, too. After hearing Dong Shihui's words, Wang Nanqian, who had experienced too many things in this short day, recalled that he seemed to have just met Pei Zhuhyun and Jiang Shiqi's two younger sisters in the morning - remembering the pale face due to fatigue and lack of rest, his original dissatisfaction with these two guys living up to his instructions was also dissipated.
"Well, although it seems to be very hard, but those seniors who were selected are really enviable......"
"You can't make your debut just like this, although your movements are correct, but you don't have expressiveness," was listening to Dong Shihui's words while walking forward, but when passing by a practice room that seemed to have the door not closed, Wang Nanqian suddenly stopped - because he heard a very, very familiar voice, "Especially Pei Zhuhyun, you don't have a sense of strength in your movements." If you only have a face, you can't make your debut, and if you continue like this, you may be excluded from this plan. (To be continued.) )
