Mid-May.

According to the agreed time, Li Ang came to the company early.

EXID members have frequently entered the company in recent days, attracting the attention of Park Jin-young. From curiosity at the beginning, I now go to watch them practice once a day.

And Li Ang, who stayed at home, was also not idle, and the short rap lyrics were easy to remember.

Several people sat in a row in the practice room, each holding a microphone in their hands.

Outside the door, Park Jin-young looked inside through the transparent glass door.

Seeing this, Li Ang, who had just arrived, stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder from behind and couldn't help but tease, "It's obviously in my own company, how can my brother be the same as a thief!" ”

"Hey, scare me!" Park Jin-young was so frightened by the sudden movement that she thought it was Jackson again.

Just about to have a seizure, when he turned around and saw that it was Li Ang coming, he instantly changed his smile, "Leon is here, I haven't seen you for a few days, what have you been busy with lately." ”

"I'm not busy with anything, just writing songs at home or something." As he spoke, the two of them entered the practice room one after the other.

The song in the stereo has been put into the last main song, and the captain Xu Shuzhi patted An Xiyan next to him and took the lead in getting up to greet him. Although Leon had signaled that he was no longer needed, the remaining four people still stood up to greet him.

"Anihasse yo ~ PDnim, President Park Jin-young nim."

"How is the practice, you know what I'm here for today!" Leon sat down on the couch in front of him.

"Inside." The five of them brushed back together.

Directing the agent who controls the music playback on the laptop to start over again.

The five members of EXID adjusted their state, and their eyes were full of confidence.

Born in a small company, the most important thing they lack is hard work.

After more than a year, all kinds of sadness from the past came to mind, and everyone didn't want to go back to experience it during that time.

Now that the glimmer of hope is in sight, they must seize this rare opportunity.

A fast-paced saxophone prelude sounds.

Give it to me I'm worth it baby I'm worth it

Un huh I'm worth it gimme gimme I'm worth it

……

Park Jin-young was also surprised more than once by the strength of the five people, and every time he came to see them, he could find new surprises.

After singing a song, the members of EXID looked in the direction of Li Ang, all looking forward to what his evaluation was.

"It seems that you have worked hard in the past few days, and you have performed well, I am very satisfied!"

First, he affirmed their efforts in the past few days, and when they were happy to celebrate, the conversation changed.

"It's like I said at the beginning, just give you a month.

This is just the beginning, so hurry up and record, you don't have much time left!

The choreography for this song is led by Lia Kim from 1M Studios, who will come to the company in the afternoon. ”

Why didn't I look for the Millennium dance studio in California, but chose 1M.

It can only be said that Li Ang prefers Kpop, a softer choreography.

"Oba~ Did you forget something?" Xu Huixuan raised a hand and asked.

As soon as he saw her, Li Ang remembered what he had promised before.

He didn't sell it and told them directly, "Now the NBA playoffs have started the second round, followed by the annual Coachella Music Festival." ”

After hearing this, several people were confused and didn't understand what he wanted to express.

On the contrary, Park Zhenying, who was sitting next to him, understood the doorway inside and was the first to react, looked at Li Ang in disbelief and asked, "Are you planning to arrange for them to perform in the United States?" ”

After Park Jin-young said this, the members of EXID looked at Lee Ang in unison, and they very much wanted him to confirm this statement.

Even the recent change of dormitory didn't make them so excited.

"Smack~" snapped his fingers crisply.

"Bingo, this is the 'big stage' I promise you.

At the NBA playoffs halftime show, which is followed all over the world, the performance was broadcast live in front of tens of thousands of people.

This is unprecedented, if you move fast enough!

Next month, also the annual Coachella Music Festival, your name will be on the list of guest performers! ”

As the No. 1 music group, Universal has unrivalled resources.

……

Staying in the company for dinner at noon, Park Jin-young took the opportunity to discuss with Lee Ang about EXID's upcoming performance in the United States.

I would like to take this opportunity to discuss with him if I can arrange some trainees in the company as backup dancers to participate in the performance together.

The plan to launch a new girl group this year has come to naught, and a series of things that happened in the company have caused a large number of trainees to leave.

The group of trainees who are still left, Park Jin-young wants to fight for some opportunities for them.

Listening to him talk a lot, Leon lowered his head and thought to himself.

It was the first time in a long time that he had made such a request to himself, and even offered to pay out of his own pocket to cover the expenses of the children's commute.

"It's not impossible for you to say that, as for your own expenses, it's not enough.

I covered the cost of travel and accommodation, after all, there is more than that for the appearance fee to find a backup dancer. ”

Before Park Jin-young could be happy, Lee Ang added:

"I only have three requirements."

"1. With their consent and that of their parents.

Second, if you want to have good strength, I will personally check it.

3. Honest and obedient.

You know, after all, California isn't like it's on the peninsula, and I don't have the time to babysitter them. ”

All the ugly things are said first, and it saves everyone trouble.

After nodding his head, Park Jin-young got up and left the cafeteria first.

……

16:00 p.m

The large practice room on the second floor has just finished a dance class.

The dance teacher clicked on the name and signaled everyone to stay, while the other trainees could go directly to rest.

Without any advance notice, it seems to have been decided on an ad hoc basis.

Seeing that I was surrounded by acquaintances who had been practicing for a long time, I didn't know what special arrangements the teacher had.

"Na Lian, do you know why the teacher told us to stay?"

Yu Dingyan had an expression that I knew everything, and bumped into Ernie who was sitting on the left.

"Do you know why?" After practicing dancing for several hours, Lin Nalian was in no mood to chat with her at all, and casually said perfunctory, just wanting to go back to the dormitory to rest quickly.

Looking left and right, everyone was discussing in a whisper.

Whispered to her ear what he had heard at lunchtime.

"Pro-Canada (really)? Are you sure you're not lying to me! Lin Nalian turned her head to look at her suspiciously, and saw that she was very serious, and it didn't look like she was lying.

After learning the news, I immediately felt full of energy, and the tiredness was swept away in an instant.

If everything is as she says.

Then it is obvious that the dozen or so people who stayed behind are already in a competitive relationship.

The look in his eyes that looked at them completely changed meaning.
