Chapter 611: From now on, you will be entertainers
PS: xiexie Dongguan scholars, civet cats' tips!
Baek Fu-mi and Kang Min-kyung happily put down their small schoolbag and became one of the female trainees of A.P Company with honor.
Originally, she debuted as a member of an R&B group in her previous life, and Choi Jung-won was worried that she would be incompetent in dancing.
But after a few days of observation, I realized that my worries were unnecessary.
Maybe she is too good at singing, or maybe she is looking for a partner for Li Haili, who has a rough voice, so she made her debut as a pure singer.
After becoming a trainee, Kang Min-kyung learned to dance quickly.
Not to mention how brilliant, but it didn't lag behind. It is very bright among C-level trainees, and it is just around the corner to be promoted to B-level.
As for Park So-yeon, who had just joined A.P Company for a short time, she only stayed in the C-level class for less than a month before she was specially promoted to the B-level class.
And with the strength she showed, it is estimated that she will be able to enter the A-level class by the end of the year, and she will be the same as Ju Li.
According to Kang Min Kyung's strength and talent, it is estimated that the speed of upgrading will not be much worse than Park So-yeon.
Do the math, at this time, there are already ten seedlings in your hands, which is enough to form a super girl group.
Of course, if you meet a talent who can be compared to them in the future, you can join again.
The debut of the men's group made Cui Zhengyuan learn a lesson.
That is, the open selection is simply uncomfortable, and they have been disturbed and tossed for so long, but the result is still back to the same place.
It seems that in the highly competitive Korean entertainment industry, people who can finally make their debut and become famous. All have their own unique side.
So simply, the debut of the girl group is directly designated by him. Anyway, these little demons are in hand, and I have them in the world.
However, the girl group is two years later, and it's still early to talk about it, and his top priority at the moment is Dark.L's debut.
"DarK.L's Mystic Light" has been broadcast on HBC and has created a lot of considerable buzz.
For example, A.P's ace trainee Quan Zhilong finally appeared in his real body, and the nine-man group opened a new model of idol group, and so on.
One of the hottest topics is probably Dark.L's multinational force.
When SGWannaBe added a Chinese, it caused an uproar. At this time, there were not only Chinese in DarK.L, but also Thais.
This is completely different from the traditional Korean idol group, and it has also caused a lot of discussion in society.
However, according to the arrogant perception of the Korean media. All the reports said that this was the reason for the development of Hallyu culture and the attraction of foreign talents.
This is a move by a Korean entertainment company to expand the market in the country in question. It was deliberately ignored by the media.
In any case, A.P's new team is a good excuse for those who have been touting Korea's excellence.
Because it helps the new combination to ascend, Cui Zhengyuan is naturally happy to see it.
August 2nd is a day that will be remembered by the Korean entertainment industry.
The debut song of the new idol group DarK.L was officially announced through A.P's official website, Melon music platform, and Never search engine.
Meanwhile. A.P's extensive public relations campaign in advance also played a big role.
At twelve o'clock in the afternoon. HBC, SBS, MBC, KBS, JTBC and other large and small Korean TV stations. After the noon news, the panoramic MV of "U" was inserted.
Not to mention newcomers, even veteran singers who have been famous for a long time have not enjoyed this kind of treatment.
The MV broadcast at the same time at noon means that the audience does not care which station they switch to. Faced with the figures of nine people.
This kind of coercive marketing method is too powerful, and the song itself is of high quality, which immediately attracted a lot of attention.
According to the planning department's calculations, Dark.L's followers increased by 30,000 in five days.
There are artists who have debuted for many years, and there may not be 30,000 fans. And the increase in the number of Dark.L is so much, I have to say that the advantages of large companies are fully revealed.
The outstanding members, Choi Jung-won's carefully cultivated combination, and the powerful opening have all created the extraordinary momentum of DarK.L.
In the entertainment industry, some people have already deducted the title of the strongest newcomer of the year on them.
Although S.M, which once held the top spot among Korean entertainment companies, will launch a new group soon, it is clear that they do not have what it takes to challenge DarK.L.
However, Cui Zhengyuan was not carried away by the comments of the outside world, there are too many cases where he was in the limelight at the beginning of his debut, but disappeared after a period of time.
It was nothing to walk well at the beginning, but to be able to go on successfully is what he wants. So for the supervision of the newcomers, he refused to relax for a moment.
Before SBS's "Popular Ballads" officially hit the song, DarK.L had already performed on the stage several times.
Without exception, they have all received unanimous praise.
Solid singing skills, superior dancing, and steady typhoon all make them look less like newcomers, more like old fritters who are used to seeing the stage.
In these performances, Cui Zhengyuan went to the scene to supervise.
All in all, the results are good. In addition to continuing to gain popularity, it also made the nine children understand what the stage is.
This is not to be said, although they have performed on stage before. But it was all as a backup dancer or cameo, and the audience sitting in the audience was not their fans.
This creates a difference in the performance environment and the problem of investment in attention.
Now they are not anyone's backup dancers or guest appearances on other people's stages, they are performing under their own names. The people sitting in the audience also had a clear purpose, that is, they came to see them.
If they can't bear the pressure and fail, then these people in the audience will be disappointed and abandon them.
Fortunately, Cui Zhengyuan's supervision played a role in stabilizing the morale of the military. They survived the most difficult period.
But it's nothing, although they participated in the performance, they are still only trainees.
Only today, after appearing on the formal singing stage, can they be transformed into real artists.
SBS has reconciled with A.P., but it will not be much better in terms of treatment.
For example, there is such a thing as an independent standby room, which is not something that a newcomer like Dark.L can get at all.
However, Cui Zhengyuan did not get angry or angry, because SBS's approach was normal. Even if you change to MBC and KBS, the little ones will definitely be treated this way.
At this time, in addition to them, there is another group of artists in their waiting room.
Cui Zhengyuan only found out when he came in. It's an acquaintance. That is, dynamicduo, which has a good relationship with Leessang.
When they debuted last year, Cui Zhengyuan also sent someone to send a basket of congratulatory flowers.
At the time, the incident was still in the news, and no one thought that two unknown hip-hop singer groups would be related to Choi Chang, the most powerful player in the Korean entertainment industry.
Although for Cui Zhengyuan, it is just a gesture. But for the helpless little newcomer dynamicduo. But that's a great blessing.
Because of a flower basket of Cui Zhengyuan. Their path as an artist suddenly became much smoother.
Many programs have sent them invitations. It also greatly increases their chances of showing their faces.
In those shows, without exception, the MC will be curiously asked how they met Cui Zhengyuan.
But the actual personalities of these two people are actually completely opposite to the flamboyant and domineering on the stage. They know very well that they are mixed in the entertainment industry, and they can only gain a foothold by being cautious.
At the beginning, they didn't say a word about Cui Zhengyuan, so as not to cause displeasure to their benefactors.
It was by chance that Cui Zhengyuan learned about it, and after calling them in person to allow them to speak, he said something through the show one after another.
Cui Zhengyuan knows that it is not easy for newcomers to survive.
Those programs all saw their relationship with themselves, and wanted to rely on this to win attention and ratings. If the dynamicduo doesn't say it, it loses its value.
After a long time, seeing that they couldn't ask anything, it is estimated that no program team will invite them.
Without the opportunity to show their faces, they will live a life without a future, like most hard-working artists.
can help such a powerful newcomer, Cui Zhengyuan naturally doesn't mind using himself to hype.
So when they saw Cui Zhengyuan coming in, the two dynamicduo, who were still resting, jumped up faster than Dark.L. "Alas, Executive Cui, long time no see."
"Oh, it's Brother Cui Zi and Brother Yin Song. What, have you also returned? Cui Zhengyuan greeted them in a hip-hop style and asked.
Gaeko has a more cheerful personality and talks a little more, and it is up to him to answer. "yes, I just made the second series. I wanted to take advantage of Kim Jong Kook xi to come back after playing songs, but I didn't expect to bump into our strongest newcomer. ”
Cui Zhengyuan can't say anything about this.
For a singer like DynamicDuo, the quality of the music is not to be said, and the album can sell well. But due to their popularity, they are all passers-by, with many music fans and few professional fans.
Coupled with the style of the song, it is difficult for them to snatch a place from the idol singer.
Even if Dark.L is a newcomer, the number of more than 100,000 fans makes them helpless.
What's more, TVXQ, last year's strongest newcomer, also returned at the same time. The number of more than 500,000 fans is even more desperate for their desire to win the championship.
Choi Jung-won beckoned the nine guys to gather in front of him, and then introduced to DynamicDuo: "This is Dark.L, a newcomer to our company, who is preparing to make his debut today. You two are seniors, so you have to take care of them more in the future. ”
DynamicDuo has inherited many benefits from Choi Jung-won, even if he doesn't say it, he will take good care of DarK.L. "Executive Cui, don't worry, as long as we do our best, there will be no problem."
Quan Zhilong also smiled and said, "Brother, don't worry." Choiza and Gaeko are both strong singers, and we have a common language. ”
Cui Zhengyuan was stunned for a moment and asked, "Do you know the two of them?" ”
"Yes, Brother Gary introduced me to me. Everyone loves hip-hop music, so it's a pleasure to get along. Quan Zhilong explained.
Cui Zhengyuan nodded, indicating that he understood.
Kwon loves hip-hop, but the rest of the group doesn't. So professionally, he doesn't have much in common with the others.
Even in A.P., there are not many people who play hip-hop professionally.
So Leessang, who was originally from the same company, is his bosom friend in hip-hop music.
When he was a trainee, Kwon Zhilong went to Leessang's recording studio the most in his spare time.
DynamicDuo and Leessang are like-minded friends and often come to A.P as guests, so it's normal to get to know Kwon Zhilong.
After the narration, DynamicDuo went out to prepare for the stage.
Cui Zhengyuan did not let the children disband, but personally helped them sort out the inappropriate places in terms of clothing.
Then he said encouragingly: "From today on, you are not trainees, but real artists." When you debut, you'll find out that these are completely different shijie from before. There are a lot of new rules and regulations that you need to learn and follow. But I'm sure you can do it well, because you're all the best people I've hand-picked. ”
"Brother, we will definitely live up to your expectations." Busy Victory was very excited.
Because he was about to make his debut, Choi Jung-won proposed that his name was not smooth enough, so he changed it to the stage name Shengli.
His gaze slowly swept over his still immature cheeks, and Cui Zhengyuan said with some murderous aura: "I think you all saw it during the rehearsal just now, and the audience outside was almost occupied by pearl red. This displeased me, and in my mind, no one is better than you. But people outside don't know, so you need to use your strength to tell them that you are the most haode. I hope that one day, your amethyst will beat pearl red and become the most brilliant color in this sky. ”
The fists of the ten men gathered together and made an oath to defeat TVXQ by the fledglings. (To be continued......)
