102. The second day of entering Beijing
Penguin Video's reception is not bad, living in a five-star hotel, three people per room, and at the same time, you can eat and drink for free in the hotel, all expenses are taken care of by Penguin Video, what's more, almost all the entertainers who came to participate in the festival this time live in this hotel, happy Su Yu stood at the door early in the morning, as long as a star entered the door, he walked up to take pictures, like a little fan.
And he is handsome, he looks like a good person, so Su Yu cheekily went up to ask for a group photo, as long as the other party is not busy, most of them will be willing to take a picture, Tan Yongming is also happy to follow him for a morning, Shu Han is reluctant to go out to play with them, staring at other idol girl groups one by one, and the powerful female singers can't move.
Shu Han was speechless about this, did I bring you to Beijing to see beautiful women?! Let you accompany me to visit the Forbidden City, the National Museum, the Prince's Mansion, the Badaling Great Wall, the Bird's Nest, the Water Cube, aren't these places fragrant, but these young ladies are really beautiful, one by one like the paintings, and it didn't take long for Shu Han to be the same as Su Yu, holding a mobile phone and constantly shooting, as for the Forbidden City, Badaling, isn't it all set up there for hundreds of years, thousands of years?
When you go, these young ladies are different, this time I missed it, who knows when I will be able to see it again, the law of true fragrance, Shu Han can't escape, after all, he is an adolescent teenager, which teenager can not be pregnant with spring, but Shu Han still has a little idol baggage, and he still can't do it after all.
So when Su Yu and Tan Yongming took the photo and showed it to Shu Han, the angry Shu Han went back to his room directly, until the docking party called and asked them to go to the live rehearsal, and then walked out of his room, Shu Han handed the guitar in the room to Tan Yongming, and then took the documents and documents and other necessary items, and the three of them went to Wukesong together.
Many celebrities, idols, artists, and athletes have held concerts, singing clubs, sports events, and is a very famous place in Beijing and even in the whole of China, which can accommodate 20,000 people to watch at the same time, located in the west of the Fourth Ring Road, and the official name has been changed to Cadillac Sports Center, but people like Shu Han are still more accustomed to calling him Wukesong.
The hotel where Shu Han and others live is not far from here, and it only takes ten minutes to walk, the organizer is obviously more thoughtful at this point, and after handing over the documents and proving his identity, Shu Han took Su Yu and Tan Yongming to walk inside, and soon a person came to dock, Su Yu went up to introduce himself, and the other party was obviously a little suspicious of Su Yu's age, but seeing that he was also over eighteen years old, he didn't dare to say his doubts directly.
After seeing Shu Han, he was even more surprised, he originally heard Su Yu say in WeChat that when the singer wanted to wear a mask, he thought that Shu Han was because he didn't look good, and he was afraid that a large number of fans would lose their fans after showing his face, so he put forward the request to wear a mask, but now when he sees Shu Han, he doesn't understand it very much.
Although Shu Han is not as handsome as Su Yu, he can feel handsome at a glance, but he is definitely an excellent teenager of the standard, coupled with the unique temperament on his body, the more Su Yu looks at it, the more he observes, the more comfortable he is, the type that is definitely not ugly, why should such a person wear a mask?
"Shu Han, are you sure you want to wear a mask? I think if you don't wear a mask, maybe the performance will be better. The staff member was a young lady, he looked at Shu Han, and said with a little blush, Shu Han had already thought that someone would ask this question, so he said: "Little sister, don't call me by my real name here." ”
"Oh, MKB." The staff nodded and said, MKB, the abbreviation of the English Mask Boy, when he came up with this nickname, Shu Han felt ashamed, but he really couldn't think of a better name, so he chose to use this name.
"I'm still a student, I don't want a lot of people to remember my face after this performance, then my school life in the future, I'm afraid it will become very bad, so I want to wear a mask." Shu Han said with a smile, the staff nodded with a little regret, thinking that this face could be revealed, with the songs he created, it may be a little difficult to directly become a popular little fresh meat, but it should still be possible to become a second-tier singer.
"Can I take a picture with you?" The young lady said.
"Yes." Shu Han said with a smile, and then took out a mask to cover his face, he could see that the corners of the young lady's mouth trembled slightly, Shu Han held back a smile and took a photo with the staff, and the young lady took the three of them and began to walk towards the inside of the venue.
With the three of them going inside, the entire large gymnasium inside Wukesong is being renovated to ensure the smooth performance of the performance, all kinds of equipment are still going inside, only the big disc stage in the center has a prototype, and the other lighting and stage art are not yet in place, but even so, Shu Han was also taken aback by this formation.
In the entire gymnasium, there are at least more than 500 staff up and down, full of voices, Shu Han has seen the concert, but the venue before the concert, he is really the first time to see it, it is indeed a little surprised The staff lady took Shu Han to a waiting room backstage, and said: "Your rehearsal is around 2 o'clock in the afternoon to 2:30 p.m., the time may change, I will contact you at any time, and then you will have someone from the band to contact you, you will finalize the specific performance with them, If there is an adaptation, remember to say it in advance, and the teacher of the band should also change it in advance. ”
"Okay, thanks." Shu Han said with a smile, walking into the waiting room, the room was full of people, costume artists, makeup artists, and even a boy group that Shu Han didn't know was dancing, full of people, like a vegetable market at six or seven o'clock in the morning.
Su Yu escorted Shu Han and Tan Yongming and hurriedly found a corner to stay, when they walked by, no one paid attention to them, everyone here focused on what they were doing, even if someone raised their heads and glanced at Shu Han, they quickly lowered their heads and concentrated on their own affairs.
For the artists here, all the peers in the waiting room are enemies, and the waiting room where Shu Han is located is a public waiting room, and those who will come here to wait are either unknown old people, or newcomers who have just debuted, in short, at the bottom of the entertainment industry, commonly known as eighteenth-tier artists.
In any circle, the fight at the bottom is often more intense than the struggle at the top, after all, being able to be among the upper class at least proves that you have succeeded, and with fame and status, you don't need to work so hard, and the people present are different, they are not popular, every stage for them, may be the last, as long as a stage can attract one more fan, this is very important for them.
Therefore, they pay little attention to the outside world, especially with Shu Han's appearance, he is considered a handsome guy among ordinary people, but in the showbiz where handsome men and beautiful women are gathered, it is really not enough to see, from the door of the waiting room to a corner, there are far more people watching Su Yu than watching Shu Han.
In fact, according to Shu Han's status, with the sales of his songs, it is completely possible to have a separate dressing room, but because this event is the largest event of the annual Penguin Video, the kings and queens who come are all in the car, and even they have to have two people in a room, let alone an Internet singer like Shu Han.
In addition, Shu Han has always been reluctant to show his face, and he just wants to show people with a mask, so naturally the treatment will be worse, but he doesn't care about these Shu Han, the three of them desperately squeeze into a corner, like Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden, looking at the crowd around her, she always feels very curious.
And the carelessness of Shu Han and the three of them looked at the eyes of others, and they couldn't help but shake their heads, the old man was thinking, these newcomers really don't know the importance of opportunities, to be able to show a face on such an occasion, as long as the performance is not bad, they can increase thousands of fans and gain a glance from tens of millions of viewers, maybe someone inside will become your fans, such an important opportunity, I don't know how to train quickly, alas.
As for the newcomers, they are disdainful, and at the same time they don't care, one more group competition, for them, is one more difficulty, if the other people here are like these three people, then they will have to laugh out loud, when everyone performs, you can see at a glance who is serious, and who is fishing in troubled waters, maybe their fans can come to their own side.
Don't look at the entertainment industry is very popular, but the idol circle is very small, although there has been a lot of news about this circle in recent years, but in fact, there are hundreds of thousands of fans who come and go, I like this little sister today, and I like this little brother tomorrow, it is too common, I must seize the opportunity, take advantage of my youth, attract more fans, and then use these fans to open up their own popularity, many people have a dream of becoming famous in their hearts.
Obviously, these people regard Shu Han as a competitor, thinking that the three of them are the latest idol group launched by the company, and for everyone's eyes and speculation, Shu Han, Su Yu and Tan Yongming don't care, they are not in the same world as this group of people at all, these people came here to become famous and realize their dreams, to sweat their sweat.
And Shu Han's purpose here is very simple, to make money.
He doesn't want to be famous at all, and he doesn't want to be supported by thousands of people, so he doesn't have as much pressure as these peers.
In fact, Shu Han admires them very much, most of these idol groups, little singers, are only seventeen or eighteen years old, and Shu Han is the same age, some are even younger than him, only fourteen or fifteen years old, it is the most publicized time in a person's life, but they travel all over the country for their dreams, and then work hard in the entertainment industry.
Although Shu Han has not worked hard in the entertainment industry, he has also been in the society, and he knows very deeply how cruel this society is for children, especially for these newcomers, they must always pay attention to the words, they have to bow when they see anyone, they are not allowed to speak casually, there are countless pairs of eyes staring at every word and deed, and any mistake may bury the entire career.
And what do they get? Most of them sleep in the basement, in the practice room every day, rush between schools, and are not able to fall in love at the age of youthful blooming, and the vast majority of them eventually leave the industry in obscurity with broken dreams, and only a few can rise to the top and become the brightest stars of that era.
I have to say that society is a very cruel place, even if you graduate from college, a young man of twenty years old, fully armed and ready to go, will still be beaten by this society and can't find the north, let alone a group of fourteen or fifteen-year-old teenagers, watching them sweat profusely, meticulous training, trying to make every action more perfect, seeing a makeup artist also bow collectively, bend down to thank you, see the seniors coming, but also retreat to both sides of the road, and then keep bowing, Shu Han felt in his heart that the entertainment industry was really a scary place.
Among them, the company level is very clear, people in large companies have seniors and capital to take care of, they can occupy the best position in the big waiting room, eating fruits, playing with mobile phones, wearing unknown brand clothes, waiting for others to notify them of the rehearsal, while the rest of the people can only train in the leftovers, holding mineral water bottles, dare not eat anything, afraid of going to the toilet, their place will be snatched away, and most of the clothes they wear are Taobao hits, which look very cheap.
The relationship between each other is very clear, it seems to be a conventional tradition, they are obviously peers, but the two sides are not like a world, Shu Han can't help but feel a little distressed in his eyes, because he has experienced these things, all walks of life in this society are actually very hard, but let minors bear this part of the hardship, Shu Han always feels that it is a little too explicit.
However, before Shu Han had time to look at it for a while, the door opened, and a middle-aged male fat man shouted to everyone: "Is Mr. MKB here?" ”
His words immediately attracted the attention of many people present, and many people looked around, isn't MKB the very popular Internet singer recently? He's here, too? Many people were very curious, and Shu Han had already taken out the mask from his bag at this time, put it on, stood up and raised his hand and said, "I'm here." ”
"Mr. MKB, please follow me, the director of the band is already waiting for you." The middle-aged fat man spoke, and everyone's eyes immediately converged on Shu Han's body, which was not at all for Shu Han, he had experienced the scene of being entrusted by thousands of slaves, such a group of young people looking at him would not interfere with any of Shu Han's emotions at all.
"Okay, thank you, master, Su Yu, Yongming, let's go." Shu Han turned his head and said to the two.
Walking through the crowd, Shu Han could feel that many people were looking at him, and a few people had the urge to move forward, but in the end, Shu Han still walked all the way to the door.
