Chapter 011 Trial Recording 2.0

Lu Wei, who claimed to be a master of deception, didn't expect to be slapped in the face so soon. He straightened his mouth and thought quickly in his mind.

If she says that she doesn't have the talent to debut, what if people are attracted by her modesty?

But if she says that she has the ability to debut, she will really find herself amused.

As for whether the group would be better without her, enmm... Anyway, Lu Wei plays the role of odd numbers. These few crappy songs can be cut into 10,000 materials in the ghost animal section. Even if everyone is replaced, it won't be better.

[Backup Dancer: My family, she would rather say she is an odd number than discredit us. Love it.]

【Lu Wei: Love-brained, get out of my circle of friends! 】

After thinking for a moment, Lu Wei's answer was roundabout, showing the director a lot of nonsense: "Whether you have the ability to debut depends on various aspects and angles. I can't judge. If it can make the group better, I am willing to be a supporting role."

Hearing this, director Lu Shuzhen raised her eyebrows. She had eaten more salt than Lu Wei had eaten rice. As a member of the seafood army, she knew how to practice Tai Chi very well.

Lu Wei, who seems to have said a lot but actually said nothing, fully possesses the basic qualities of a non-stick pan for working people. This little girl is not simple.

Therefore, Lu Shuzhen deliberately changed the angle to ask a tricky question: "Do you regret coming to Goryeo?"

Lu Wei finally understood why he had to be specifically reminded before starting that all questions must be answered.

She really wanted to use "....." to express her attitude. Silence was not a sign of giving up, but her carefree state.

Her retreat was blocked, and to be honest it was not impossible, but the decision to come to Goryeo was not made by her, so the question naturally should not be answered by her.

Now she really can't say whether she has any regrets or not.

"Should I regret it? If I had a time machine, I could let my then-self come back to the future and see if this decision would make her regret it."

During the preparation for the audition, Lu Wei took off his disguise for the first time and answered the questions with genuine feelings.

Of course, if she made all these decisions by herself, Lu Wei would definitely say firmly: No regrets!

There is nothing to regret. This is just a small journey in her life. It is enough to have experienced it, felt it and gained something.

Director Lu Shuzhen rubbed her chin thoughtfully. Logically, she would be interested in explosive content and artists with unique personalities. But as she looked at the girl before her, she felt a urge to dig deeper.

The shots taken cannot fully reflect Lu Wei's characteristics, but the sense of freedom that is inadvertently revealed really makes people want to explore.

After thinking for a moment, Lu Shuzhen asked a rather harsh question: "Since your debut, have you ever felt exhausted and unable to persevere?"

"No." Lu Wei didn't hesitate, answering within two or three seconds of the question being asked. Though brief, her response held undiminished resolve. She was the protagonist of her own life, a mere casualty in the world of others. Even if she couldn't become the heroine of everyone's hearts, she would still have the most radiant life. Lu Shuzhen curled her lips into a silent smile. No matter their age or social experience, she would always be drawn to those with a strong core.

"Okay, your audition preparation is over. I hope to see you on the show." Lu Shuzhen sent out her best wishes. She was not sure whether the interview just now could be retained. This is the difference in perception inside and outside the camera.

"Thank you for your hard work." Lu Wei bowed deeply, turned her back to the camera, and walked out of the practice room with brisk steps. Although the beginning of the recording was a bit bumpy and the process was a bit tortuous, her path as an unknown person was still bright and shining.

After the individual test recording was completed, in order to fully reveal the real life of Xiao Hu Tuan, the program crew packed up the filming equipment and headed to the next filming location under the leadership of Cui Yajing.

Different from the usual variety shows produced by MNTB, this recording screening is only for Korea's debuted groups, and it is not a regular audition for trainees.

All groups participating in the recording have at least the basic ability to debut and some outstanding qualities that have not been discovered by the public.

After inspecting dozens of groups, Lu Shuzhen had a heated discussion with other directors, PDs, and writers.

"The confirmed list now includes WINS (Victory), Cenozoic era (CE), and Eternal stars (ES). Does anyone have any recommendations for other combinations?" The program director said, looking towards both ends of the conference table.

The three groups WINS, ES, and CE were confirmed before the audition, and they are also the most relatively well-known among all the groups to be screened. Every variety show needs some artists who can take up the heat in the early stages.

They played such a role.

There are risks and opportunities.

Those who can seize the opportunity are chosen by God, and those who are washed onto the beach when the waves recede are the first generation of sacrifices.

Therefore, the director, PD, and writers had no objections to the selection of these three combinations.

"I recommend SPDE. This group is very good. You can see their ambition in the trial clip. The show needs a catfish like this." After saying this, PD Min Zhimin projected the edited content on the projector.

Everyone's attention shifted towards the curtain.

The five members in the video never stopped talking from the beginning to the end of the recording. In addition to cooperating with each other, they were also constantly competing for the camera, letting their faces occupy the largest space.

This excessive aggressiveness can't help but make people a little scared. For some groups that dare not make mistakes and are afraid of being criticized, this is not a catfish, but a prehistoric crocodile.

The miracle girls who just finished recording: What about me?

After watching it, many directors and PDs frowned.

Someone soon expressed a different opinion: "It's true that there's ambition, but excessive ambition could have the opposite effect."

The advance team raised objections, and others who felt it was inappropriate stood up one after another.

"I feel uncomfortable watching it, and my back feels cold."

"My desire to be famous is almost bursting through the camera. If something goes wrong during the recording, it will be really bad."

Seeing the voices of rejection growing louder, Lu Shuzhen calmly glanced at the director's face. Seeing that she didn't show any obvious displeasure, she was the first to raise her vote of approval: "I think it's great. Are you worried that you can't control a few young girls? If it really doesn't work, just have the editor delete some clips."

Who else but her deserves a promotion and a raise in salary?

If I don’t double my year-end bonus this year, I would be letting down Lu Shuzhen’s kindness.

"Okay, then add them in." The chief director made the final decision, and there was no more objection in the meeting room.

Although there are fewer comedic scenes like the leader picking up food and I turning the table, or the leader drinking water and I braking, but everyone here is smart and knows that they have to step into the company with their left foot tomorrow and raise their vote of approval with their right hand today.

After a series of evidence, rebuttals, and conclusions, nine groups were finally shortlisted for the official recording invitation. To make the number of groups appear balanced, one spot remained.

The topic is there, the ambition is there, the tragic life is there, and the strength is there. What type is missing?

Just as everyone was racking their brains, Lu Shuzhen thought of Lu Wei's face. She packaged her words and said, "Red flowers need green leaves to set them off, and the show also needs someone who can highlight the excellence of others."

The trial clip of "Wonder Girls" really lacks highlights. They are all nobody in the entertainment industry, and they can't even match others in selling misery.

What about working at a convenience store... working part-time at a cafe... showing the balance on your bank card...

There is no worst, only worse.

It's not living in a cramped, overcrowded dorm that's miserable, nor is it working for a rubbish company that's inhumane. It's putting it on camera for everyone to see that's truly miserable.

"Does PD Lu have any recommended combination?" The director almost handed the decision-making power to his number one lackey.

It doesn’t matter who you choose as the background board, so why bother worrying about it?

"It's not a recommendation, I just think they're suitable." Lu Shuzhen didn't want to be misunderstood. She didn't take any kickbacks, so why would she take the blame for someone else's? "I filmed a test clip for Miracle Girl last time. Everyone, take a look. If you think they're okay, you can consider them."

"Okay, let's decide it this way first. The editing team should hurry up and finish the test recording, and then send a notice to each company." The director made the final decision.

After the candidates were decided and the meeting ended, MNTB Production Company began to release information on major websites to warm up the atmosphere.

--Korea N Network [Rumor has it, MNTB has made some new moves recently.] LZ: It looks like a big deal, and many people in the community are discussing this.

"What's the new move? Going back to the prison route?"

“KKK, you’re going to make me laugh to death.”

"I hope it's not another talent show. I can't bear to see these kids so lost. It's so painful to have their dreams buried."

"I'll have to memorize arithmetic progressions for the rest of my life. This is the first time I'm so speechless."

"If nothing else, the MNTB show is pretty good. If it's really a talent show, I'll follow it."

"Indeed, as long as you don't take it too seriously, it's still okay to kill time."

----Tree Planting and Vegetable Growing Base [Guys, what's new in the circle lately? Check it out online.] LZ: Ever since the melon group died, I've been getting more and more bored. Chewing electronic pickled mustard greens isn't as delicious as before.

"If God wants someone to die, he must first drive them crazy. First think of the bricks and tiles you and I handed over before we jumped out of the car, and then think of the dirt you and I shoveled after we jumped out. No melon friend is innocent. Isn't it a bit too filial to miss them now?"

"Humor! So humorous!"

"The great filial piety in the hall +1."

"There are no melons, but there are a lot of vegetables."

"People are crazy, but they must eat."

"The host is idle, I am here to watch the show."

"So you guys used a few somersaults to drag the topic to a completely different place."

"I did hear a little news. It seems like Korea is recording a new talent show."

"Oh no! You're committing a crime against the wind! You're risking your life!"

"The melon upstairs is a must-eat, and the words are a must-leak. I almost thought you were some new breed of nine-leaky fish."

"Haha, Lin Xiao you..."

"My little pearls are about to fall out, woooo ...

"Evil heart... I'm sorry, I'll have to be the nine-leaky fish. I can't stand it anymore."

"If there's a new talent show, I definitely have to watch it. Is there anything more fun than eating melons across borders?"

"That makes sense. Take my little notebook and write it down."

LZ: I am very happy.
