Chapter 43: Intrigue in the Team (4K)
The noisy songs filled the venue with thousands of people, and the sound-absorbing walls on the walls worked hard, trying their best to absorb the sound waves, trying not to let the volume spread and affect other people.
The venue is not very large, after all, this is just a showcase, and the stage is less than 2 hours in total.
This is a small concert to test how popular Lee Ji-eun is in Neon, not for pure money. If she is not very popular in Neon, then there is no need to continue to develop in Neon.
The atmosphere in the audience below the stage was not lively, only a few people. However, even a few people are gray and black at the moment, and they are very impatient with the performance on stage.
This was especially true of the man with black-rimmed glasses sitting in the middle, but his eyes looked at the Korean team who was also looking at the side, and his heart became more and more irritated, and his hands began to rub and squeeze each other.
"Watch to follow the lights!" His voice was a little angry and impatient, but it seemed to be restrained. He is the director of the whole small concert, and he directs all the scheduling of the whole concert. But in addition to the chaos, the chaos is not the problem he is responsible for, not the sound, not the lighting, not the link.
It was the core question of the whole concert.
With his words, Li Zhien on the stage also seemed to notice something, and his steps slowly moved with the guidance of the lights.
As the melody progresses, the dance partners behind them huddle up one after another, forming a circle.
But the blocking of the dance partners made Lee Ji-eun lose the ability to look into the distance of the stage. The neon pronunciation in the voice starts to get weird, and the dance starts to snap the shot.
Looking at the mistakes on stage, the impatience in the director's eyes became more and more obvious.
"Watch the rhythm! And you're standing in the wrong position! ”
Li Zhien was a little anxious in her heart, and she couldn't see the teleprompter in front of her, which made her a little irritable, but the dance partners around her were staggered back and forth, and the lights above her head made her unable to distinguish her position for a while. And the dance partner can only retreat, making the whole stage chaotic in an instant!
"Move, move! The sound engineer gave me a pause! The director, who was sitting at the bottom of the stage, stood up from his position, and his Japanese kept popping out: "You have been standing like an idiot in the center of the stage, how can the dance partner behind you interact with you?" Didn't you sing this song? Isn't that your famous work?
Wouldn't it follow the trajectory of the light? Have you forgotten that the volume changes according to the intensity of the light? You've been keeping your eyes on the teleprompter, what's you doing? Can't remember a word without a teleprompter? ”
Listening to a somewhat deafening roar, Li Zhien's eyes were less than 20 centimeters away from him, and the hand of his dancing partner trembled a little.
Looking at the hands of her dance partner who had been in contact with her for 3 years, she remembered that she should hold out her hand to cooperate with her dance partner's dance.
I rehearsed this dance hundreds of times, but I subconsciously forgot it when I remembered the Japanese pronunciation of my song.
Love to read
"Did you come from South Korea to make a fool of us? A show that's only 1 hour in total and you need 4 hours to rehearse? Do you can't hold on, or can't you dance while rapping? ”
"Private horse race." Panting voices filled the thousand-seated venue, and everyone could hear the words out of breath.
"Don't apologize to me, give me an explanation! Can you sing it in the end? If you can't sing, pull it down, and if you can sing, continue! ”
"I can't remember the lyrics." Lee Ji-eun's pant was amplified with the microphone, but this panting was not as heart-wrenching as last night, and it only made everyone in the concert hall start to murmur in their hearts.
Hearing this reason, the director became more and more angry: "If you can't remember, then reduce the repertoire of Japanese songs!" Or sing all the Korean songs! You're just wasting all of our time trying so uselessly! ”
Indeed, the director is right.
All the dance partners from South Korea looked at the girls standing in the center of the stage, their backs already drenched with sweat, with some confusion and incomprehension in their eyes, and even a little dissatisfaction.
Since 3 hours ago, the progress has become unusually slow, and everyone has taken a lot of breaks, but the girls' state has not been very good, and they have no confidence anymore after repeating again and again.
The second girl's ear in front of her had already been taken off by her, and the sweat dripped down the center of the stage, and the ground was already wet.
The gaze is always stressful, and the girl standing in the center and front of the stage is naturally the same, she can feel the dance partners behind her. What's more, there are several pairs of eyes staring at her under the stage in front of her, and there is still a lot of impatience in the dissatisfaction in their eyes.
Lee Ji-eun can fully feel the emotions of the staff, even the dance partners who have followed him from Korea and cooperated with him for many years. But she still looked at the sound engineer on the side a little stubbornly, and although the stage lighting engineer was tired in her eyes, she still insisted on her own ideas.
"I'll try again. Please go ahead. ”
The singing of the soundtrack, which has no original singing at all, sounded again. She completely ignored the emotions in everyone's eyes and wanted to start from scratch with the backup dancers.
And the director of Neon had no intention of stopping the other party's actions, but just looked at the Korean agency team on the side. But seeing that the manager of the agent led by the other party did not react, he couldn't help but feel a little strange in his heart.
The other party just didn't say a word, and even completely ignored his anger as a director at this time and the physical condition of the artists on stage?
It's a strange state.
He had no interest in researching the problem, just shook his head slightly and sat down.
Since the other party wants to grind with themselves like this, they are so tired that they are artists, and they don't feel sorry for their artists, what does it matter to them? Do you want to be an artist who always has problems when the director takes the initiative?
......
In fact, there are still a lot of people who are paying attention to all this.
After IU's agent Squirrel withdrew his attention from the stage, he kept focusing on his boss and the neon director. Doubts grew in my heart.
The director's words just now are obviously not just saying to Zhien, but also to us. The director's intention is actually to let us come forward to stop this meaningless and inefficient rehearsal behavior and let everyone rest more, but why didn't the room manager move for a long time?
It's been 4 hours, and if you go any further, nothing will come of it.
He couldn't hold back his thoughts, he knew the girl on the stage who he had led for several years.
Li Zhien didn't know that he was very inefficient if he continued like this, but he still gritted his teeth and didn't complain, and insisted on it. All this must be due to the reason. But why did Director Zhang, who knew more than himself, not say a word, and didn't even act to soothe the director's emotions?
Doesn't this make Zhien persist so meaninglessly, and also make everyone disgusted with the little guy who gritted his teeth and insisted?
The squirrel felt a little unbearable in his heart, and with the idea of freeing everyone, he walked to his head and whispered softly:
"Director Nim, do I need to talk to the director? ...... continue to criticize like this."
Hearing the advice of his familiar subordinates, Director Zhang glanced back, without any expression on his face, but said lightly: "How can I talk to him?" Zhien's debut Showcase is fully responsible for the neon side of the family. How do we intervene? You have to remember that we are foreigners, and if we rush up like this, the other party will not give us a good face. ”
"How about we let Zhi'en come down and rest? So she was scolded by the neon side all the time in front of the public, under the eyes of everyone. Not to mention gratitude, it's hard for everyone to do well. The pressure of dozens of people was all on her, and it would crush her. ”
"She doesn't let go of herself, and it's useless for us to pull her down."
"Room manager Nim, you don't know Jien's character. She is a brainless girl who is also very strong in her bones. If we don't pull her down, she will keep going until she ends up on the stage. What's more, now she is also very anxious and wants to do a good job in this showcase. ”
Director Zhang kept looking at Li Zhien, who was surrounded by a group of dancers on the stage, his eyes flashed, and he was silent.
Seeing that the head of his house seemed to be moved by his own words, the squirrel thought there was a drama in his heart, and continued: "Zhi'en has not been learning Japanese for a long time, only three months, and she simply memorizes the pronunciation of many songs, and sometimes she needs to look at the teleprompter if she can't remember it. The body should pay attention to the dance coordination, and the eyes should pay attention to the position of the camera. Isn't this a bit too stressful for her? ”
"No one gave her this pressure, she gave it to herself. When we tried to persuade her, we were hitting the breath in her heart. Since she is doing so poorly, then accompany her and let her know that if she has a problem, she is actually dragging us all down. We didn't force her, if she wants to rush out of the current storm of public opinion, then she has to force herself. Got it? ”
Wait, is she and that prosecutor real? They hide it from the company, from everyone in the company
The squirrel was a little surprised, before Li Zhien, "But wasn't this incident inadvertently exposed by D Society?" ”
"Unintentionally? Obviously someone wanted to make her paste. The head of the room sneered and confided in the words that made the squirrel even more frightened: "What's more, she hid from us and the prosecutor around her to fall in love, and didn't let us make public relations preparations, resulting in more than half of the fans and official coffees now." Wasn't this pressure inflicted on herself by herself? ”
"What? Is this true? ”
The squirrel looked shocked, he didn't suspect his own leader, Zhien also suspected it at the barbecue restaurant at the time, but until now Zhien has not expressed any suspicion. He, like Lee Ji-eun before him, has always constrained his thoughts from his past friendships. Although there were some suspicions, until there was evidence to prove everything, they would believe the head of the agent who had been leading them.
But knowing that now the head of the agent has told him the truth of everything, it really makes the squirrel question Li Zhien.
"Or else? Can anyone else force her to do it? Director Zhang sneered: "After sending her home that day, she went out with the prosecutor to fool around, and now she should bear these things." She is no longer a little girl, and she needs to face the consequences of what she has caused. ”
"So you're trying to prevent everyone from being dissatisfied and blamed for Ji-eun, so ......."
"Keep everything secret, otherwise people's hearts will be scattered."
"Ne, I see."
The squirrel nodded, as if he felt that the head of the room was not wrong.
Yes, everyone now eats on the grace of Zhi. If Zhien really can't get up in this wave of scandals, how many people will be fired, and Loen's accountability will also make Li Zhien's newly improved family become impoverished again.
This pressure is really not given by others, it is given to her by herself.
This thought made the squirrel's heart tighten, and he felt a little unbearable: "But she's tired, what will she do on her debut stage tomorrow?" ”
"Do you think the director can't see it? He'll take a pause. Director Zhang glanced at his most valued subordinates and said coldly, "Take care of your own business." Did I get the food I bought for everyone delivered? When you arrive, you'll be ready to distribute it. And be prepared to be here all night tonight. ”
With that, he walked backstage, completely ignoring it all.
The squirrel wanted to follow, but still looked back at the stage with a little unease.
......
Does Li Zhien know that if this continues, his body may lose his strength and not be able to hold on?
Of course she knew, but she couldn't help it.
As long as the head of the room doesn't take the initiative to speak, he can't go down, and the scolding before going will be in vain.
She was under a lot of pressure. I'm going to be pasted, and more and more fans are announcing their fans. The official coffee of the paid fans has gone out of control, and many comments and comments can no longer be read, even if they use the water army's remarks, they can't deal with it at all.
She doesn't want to be bad like this, the agents don't want to be bad, the stylists don't want to go bad, and even everyone in the company doesn't want the only artist to continue to be so bad.
Everyone was tied to a boat, and if they continued to stick to it, someone would pat themselves on the ass and leave.
I also want to accuse the head of the agent of being problematic, and I also want to explain that I and Lin Zhexun were wronged. But as long as there is no evidence, or if everyone does not unite to be suspicious of the head of the room, then it is useless to say anything to themselves. Even this caused internal divisions for no reason, making the team itself so disgusted with itself.
If you want to force the head of the room to the opposite side of everyone, then you can only use means.
Lin Zhe asked that guy to be right: "Stupid! I'm a fool."
Whether it is in the eyes of passers-by, in the entire entertainment industry, or even in the eyes of his own agent team, he is a fool. Not many people know themselves. In their eyes, they don't understand anything, and all their actions are their most primitive hearts.
So, that's all there is to it!
Li Zhien looked at the sweat in front of him, and with the change in volume, he pretended to walk up inadvertently. And then there was a dazzling fall with his own skillful eyes.
