In a large practice room on the basement level

Directly opposite the door, a row of chairs was already full of people, and sitting in the middle were the two decision-makers of S.M Company, one was President Kim Min-young, and the other was artist director Lee so-man, the two of them almost didn't look at each other, and they rarely communicated, sitting together with their heads and whispering to the people next to them.

Sitting next to Kim Min-young on the left is the company's marketing team, overseas development team and other working groups, and sitting next to Lee so-man on the right is the company's record producer Yu Yongzhen, dance teacher, voice teacher and other professionals.

From this point, it can be seen that the two are responsible for completely different things in the company, one is only responsible for making profits for the company and opening up new markets, and the other is focusing on cultivating artists.

Outside the door

The girls gathered together, each of them made the same expression, that is, take a deep breath, this is a war without gunpowder, no one wants to disappear from this war, they all want to persevere, and they hope that everyone will persevere together, just as they usually expect, I hope everyone will work together and make their debut together.

But the reality is cruel, there will always be people who will be left behind in this war, such as Park So-yeon, who did not return to the company, as the oldest sister, her sudden disappearance more or less discouraged the girls.

There was a "crunch", and outside the door, the witch agent beckoned to the girls to let them in.

The first in the line was Kim Hyo-yeon, followed by Kwon Yoo-ri, Jessica, Hwang Mi-young, Sunny, Kim Tae-yeon, Lee Hwan-hee, Seo Chan-mi, Seo Joo-hyun, Choi so-young and Lim Yoon-a, and 11 girls except Park So-yeon entered the practice room in a column.

The air was frozen, and after entering, the girls stood in a row, looked up, and saw that the heartbeat of the company executives on the opposite side began to accelerate wildly, and their breathing began to be rapid, and their eyes seemed to be shouting tears, and the more nervous people had begun to tremble slightly.

Kim Taeyeon, who was standing in the middle, was also very nervous, her position was right opposite Lee so-man and Kim Min-young, usually the two high-level executives would hardly meet them, and they would say something encouraging them with a smile in the rare number of meetings, but today, there was no smile.

The trainee head sat in the corner and waved at the girls, followed by the girls, who collectively bent down and nodded and greeted in a sweet voice: "Hello, hello." ”

After the group greeted, the girls instantly fell silent, looking at the high-level people opposite waiting for them to talk.

Knowing that the girls would be nervous, the artist director Li Xiuman was the first to speak: "Today's monthly exam will determine the final candidate for your group project, and I hope you all can give full play to the results of your usual training." ”

Don't smile, after Li Xiuman finished speaking, Kim Minying spoke, compared with Li Xiuman, Jin Minying is much better, after all, it is a large-scale girl group planned by him, and he doesn't want the girls to be so nervous that they play abnormally, so he said with a smile and a gentle tone: "Don't be nervous, just remember one thing, just show us all your talents, you know?" ”

"Yes, got it." The girls were still nervous to reply.

A group of people began to open a text jiàn folder, and then the trainee head began to perform individually one by one.

The first one to come out was Jin Xiaoyuan, who took a deep breath and strode to the middle of the stage after hearing the roll call, bent down and nodded at the high-level officials: "Hello, I'm 18-year-old trainee Jin Xiaoyuan, and what I want to perform is a dance." After saying that, no one responded to her, and the trainee head began to ask the staff to play music.

When the music sounded, Jin Xiaoyuan's whole person changed, from the previous nervousness to the sudden concentration, with the rhythmic music began to show his dance, I have to say that in the entire planning group, Jin Xiaoyuan's dance strength is the strongest, and even among the company's trainees, the other girls are also sighing in their hearts when they look at Jin Xiaoyuan's dance steps.

At the end of the song, Li Xiuman looked at Jin Xiaoyuan, who was standing up straight, and said: "Very good, Xiaoyuan's dancing seems to have improved a little, but has his singing strength improved?" I'm looking forward to it. ”

Kim Min Young didn't speak, just nodded and turned around to discuss with the other staff, the first round of performances is a personal specialty performance, Kim Hyo-yeon's dancing strength has nothing to point out about, she is already the best in her age group, not only S.M company, but also in the three major entertainment companies.

After Kim Hyo-yeon, Kwon Yoo-ri appeared for the second time, she also performed a dance, like Kim Hyo-yeon, Kwon Yoo-ri's dance strength is very strong, and the high-level people did not put forward any opinions, as if this is also in everyone's expectations, as long as there are no mistakes, there should be no problem.

Finally, the person who performs the singing appears, starting from the third Jessica to Kim Taeyeon, four people in a row perform singing, the voices of the four have their own merits, Kim Taeyeon and Jessica are unique in the field of treble, Hwang Mi-young's alto is very attractive, Sunny is a little lacking in xiàn, but her alto and treble are not bad.

After the four singing performances, Lee Huan-hee also performed singing, and in the team, Lee Huan-hee's singing strength is also very strong, even higher than Sunny and Kim Tae-yeon, Seo Chan-mi's dance, Seo Joo-hyun's singing, Choi so-young thought about it for a while, and it ended with a dance when Lin Yuna ended.

Round 1

In general, the girls played the fruits of their hard work, and every girl who finished the performance sat on the floor in the corner to cheer for the next girl, and this kind of unity and cohesion is very important, especially for large groups.

Jin Minying didn't say anything in her eyes, and before the second round began, Li Xiuman spoke again, looked at the girls sitting in the corner and said: "What you performed just now is your specialty, and now you will start to perform one of your relatively weak ones, such as Kim Hyo-yeon just danced and now performs singing, and so on." ”

The girls have thought of this a long time ago, and they were mentally prepared just before the monthly exam, and they knew that the second round was not the end, and when Park Suyan was still there, the 12 girls were divided into two teams to perform in a team, but now that Park Suyan is missing, I don't know if it will be carried out in the same way.

If it goes like this, how will Kim Tae-yeon, Sunny, Kwon Yoo-ri, Lee Hwan-hee and Lim Yoon-a, who are on the same team as Park So-yeon, face it again.

Putting aside other problems, it was Kim Hyo-yeon who started and walked to the middle of the stage with a pen in his hand, compared with the first time he performed a dance, Kim Hyo-yeon's confidence was very lacking when he appeared on the stage for the second time, at least after standing in the middle of the stage, he didn't look up at the high-level people in front of him.

The music I chose was the music that Kim Hyo-yeon had practiced hard in the last week, and I also found Kim Taeyeon and Jesscia to guide me, and the song I chose was a song by a senior singer in the 90s, which was relatively gentle in terms of difficulty, and there were no big fluctuations in the interval, as long as the control zhì was good, it could still be completed smoothly.

Constantly taking a deep breath, Jin Xiaoyuan felt that his mind was blank, listening to the prelude of the music in his ears, and suddenly couldn't remember the content of the lyrics, this was the first person to make a mistake, just at the moment when Jin Xiaoyuan missed entering the prelude of the song, the other girls' hearts also sank, and the silence in the entire practice room was terrible.
