Chapter 047 Second Performance 14.0

Halfway through the performance preparation period, Lu Wei gradually settled into the routine of leaving early and returning late for practice. Despite the growing desire to be eliminated from the production team, life wasn't too difficult.

Because by brainwashing her head (crossed out), and thinking from an external perspective, every minute and every second that passes will bring her one step closer to liberation.

Ah~~ Damn it...

Midway through her outcry, Lu Wei gave up, both happily and sadly. The exclamation point turning into a tilde said it all: she was no longer the energetic Wei she once was, but a laborer tormented by life to the point of losing her voice.

Tired, exhausted, and devastated.

Annoyed, tired, and exploded.

Daily Q&A: When will MNTB close down?

A big question every day: When will the makeshift troupe close?

She hadn't reviewed for several days, and the conscienceless bad thing, the knowledge point, must have sneaked away when she was not paying attention.

well......

Because the contestants were all so busy that they couldn't even plant any melon seedlings, the basic melon-eating skills were completely useless.

To relax, I can only sneak a peek at the latest gossip at night. But even when I'm exhausted, I can easily fall asleep in just three seconds, not eight minutes.

It's just the right amount of time to pick up and put down your phone, which doesn't help at all.

Draft...

Lu Weiyuan calls him the God of Internet Addiction Treatment.

If you want to lose weight, come to the talent show.

If you want to be beautiful, come to the talent show.

If you want to go crazy, come to the talent show.

In addition, according to the observations of frontline reporter Ms. Xiao Wei, a thick aura of resentment is floating above the training building. There is a fear that a thousand-year-old ghost fairy has been born, which will become a serious problem in no time.

For example: now.

"Are you guys...really practicing well?" Ha Hairen took a deep breath, forcing down her anger. Damn it! They were getting more confident the more they practiced, while the two groups she was leading were becoming increasingly frustrated.

The proficiency has improved, the expression management is in place, but the emotional state is neither up nor down.

It makes people angry just looking at it!

Lu Wei lowered his eyes consciously and did not risk being scolded by looking at the dance teacher.

She's not stupid.

We are smart.

If you really look up, you will be edited to look a little bit rebellious.

"Not talking? Are you mute?" He Hairen frowned, feeling very angry at the row of quails in front of him.

What annoys her most is not people talking back, but the fact that the contestants seem to be well-behaved but actually just listen to her.

Lu Wei pursed her lips slightly, wanting to reply, but after thinking it over, she felt she had no right to speak.

Am I wrong?

It is indeed wrong.

Has it been changed?

It's not that I don't want to, but I can't help it. Forget about her, every single contestant in this building has more resentment than a ghost.

Jin Nayan opened her mouth but couldn't utter a single syllable. She didn't dare to bring bad luck, so she selectively forgot her identity and responsibilities as captain.

The others' shoulders hunched even more, their bodies conveying signals of weakness, pitifulness, and helplessness from the inside out.

He Hairen sighed helplessly and gave one last piece of advice: "I know you're under a lot of pressure, but this profession is different from other industries. It requires you to shine and pass on your enthusiasm to the audience. If you don't have the drive to move forward, why are you wasting your time here? Why don't you change your career sooner?"

It is undeniable that the program team did arrange the schedule very tightly, but this is not a reason for the contestants to be depressed.

After hearing this, Lu Wei instantly understood what Teacher He meant. She put away her high-sounding excuses, raised her eyes and looked at He Hairen apologetically, and said seriously, "I'm sorry."

No matter what time, people always like those passionate dreamers. Sometimes, after weighing too many pros and cons, selfishness becomes more and more important, and the drive is naturally buried.

Lu Wei knew what was right and wrong. Being an idol is a profession that cannot bring negative emotions into the camera. The light chasers are chasing the light, not the stinking ditch.

Although she wasn't planning on going deep into this line of work and only wanted to perform well on stage, the stage... well, it was all about being in front of people. If she continued like this, it would be hard for her to adjust her mindset and she might even mess up.

He Hairen and Lu Wei looked at each other, saw the sincerity in the depths of her pupils, and felt a sense of pity in their hearts.

Although Lu Wei usually performs well, he always gives people the impression that he is a little bit worse. This little difference is something that cannot be filled by external things between ordinary idols and top idols.

The purer a person is, the less worldly desires he has.

Such people, if they cannot open their minds and find sufficient sources of motivation, are not suitable to stay in the entertainment industry for long.

He Hairen shook his head slightly and turned his gaze to the other contestants. Whether Lu Wei could make it through this difficult situation depended on fate.

With a leader, Han Xuanzhen and the others also found a way out. They stopped playing the role of saw-mouthed gourds and apologized one after another.

"I'm sorry, teacher."

"We didn't mean to do that, sorry."

"I will do it well, teacher, please don't be angry."

"I don't want to hear words like sorry or sorry in the future. Let's move on." Ha Hae-in put the matter behind her. No matter how deadlocked they were in the future, she would not remind them again.

The music started playing in the practice room again. Lu Wei tried hard to calm down, but he always felt a tightness in his chest, as if a rainstorm was about to come.

Although she had thought about the future clearly enough, she still felt that something was forgotten.

This condition was not noticed by others. In the eyes of her teammates, she was still the seeded player who performed well and made a little progress every day.

Time moves forward little by little, without stopping for anyone.

On the third to last day before the second performance and the first to last day before the show was officially aired, the contestants received a notice that disrupted their practice schedule.

"Official photo? Now?"

As the team leader, Kim Yoo-ri asked the staff who conveyed the news in surprise.

Lu Wei's long-buried desire to complain came online again, and the word "disdain" was revealed clearly in his eyes without any concealment.

The arrangement of the program team makes people want to throw rotten eggs on its face. All kinds of bizarre operations have caused its quality to plummet.

It’s really interesting. They didn’t take any pictures at the beginning of the recording, and only remembered that there was something missing when the show was about to be broadcast?

Now we are adding some weight to their intense training life. It doesn’t mean that we think the contestants are too unlucky.

Lee Eun-byul felt so exhausted, too exhausted to speak, her lips frozen in a standard official smile. Why!!! Why on earth!!! Even lying down and playing dirty is so difficult when participating in a variety show where everyone is back!!!

An Zhuxuan and others twitched their mouths twice, and then forced the expression management system to operate.

【I'm fine】JPGLooking at the group of idols with kind smiles on their faces, the staff member didn't know what was going on and answered nervously: "Uh... yes..." "Okay, thank you, we got it." Kim Yoo-ri took a deep breath, took up the responsibility, turned her head, and signaled her teammates with her eyes to follow her out.

There is no way, when you live under someone's roof you have to bow your head.

After all, they need to eat on the program team's turf. If they nag about things that cannot be changed, they will only waste their time.

Lu Wei understood the truth, but she just didn't want to listen to reason. On the way to the shooting location, she was still silently cursing MNTB.

Damn MNTB!!!

Damn the production team!!!

It was not until she arrived at the shooting center that she adjusted her mood and let go of her resentment.

After getting off the bus, the group followed the staff, hurriedly walked through the hall corridor, and came to the slightly messy dressing room.

"Is your team all here? Try on the clothes first to see if they fit." The stylist handed over sets of clothes that had been prepared in advance and marked with names, one by one.

"Thank you." Everyone bowed to express their gratitude, took the clothes with both hands, and walked towards the changing room consciously.

Lu Wei took off the dust bag and put it aside. Looking at the uniform in his hand, the burning spirit of complaining was instantly extinguished.

No need to criticize.

The program crew does have some aesthetic sense.

Black uniform jacket, white shirt, red and black striped tie, gray pleated skirt. Classic preppy style, no matter your skin color, looks good in any outfit.

Apart from the fact that it looks too much like the high school uniform here, there is nothing wrong with it.

So, did MNTB change their character, or did the suit become cheaper to make?

Lu Wei couldn't figure it out, but compared to the 101 series of previous years, she liked the current style better.

After changing into her uniform and matching black leather shoes, she raised her hand and walked around in front of the stylist. Seeing that there was no need to change her waist or size, she folded the clothes she wore when she came and stuffed them into the closet, then walked towards the dressing room with her teammates.

Cao Youmei first glanced at her teammates, then looked down at herself. Without the cameras covering her, she said with emotion, "This dress is a pretty color. It's much better than pink. Pink looks yellow on me."

"Tsk...you really know how to talk." An Zhuxuan smacked her lips, rolled her eyes and glanced at Jin Youli and Li Enxing with a strong sense of stealth.

"Puchi..." The others couldn't help but laugh out loud. If they didn't sabotage each other, they might die. If they didn't think of others in a dark way, they would also die.

"Haha~~~" Jin Youli laughed again, her mouth twisted into the shape of a Nike. She wanted to carry the camera herself and put the lens on the faces of these people who laughed so hard.

Smile, smile, smile...

If you have the guts to laugh like that in front of the audience, you might as well just throw away your entire personality.

Seeing the classic Shiba Inu expression on Kim Yoo-ri's face, Lu Wei instantly broke down, and his apple cheeks appeared with a big smile.

Seeing all these talented people gathered together, it felt like watching Go Fighting. The chemistry between the members of Team B was really interesting.

Despite Kim Yoo-ri's undisputed position within the team, no one seemed to dare to provoke her. In fact, she was the one who got choked the most.

Li Enxing looked at his teammates who were laughing beside him, let down his guard a little, and put on a smile that was completely different from usual.

"......" Cao Youmei opened her mouth and couldn't say anything. God knows, she really just sighed and didn't mean anything else.

A world was created where she was the only one hurt.

Seeing the situation was turning one-sided, Bai Chengyuan fanned the flames and said, "Forget Yumei. You're not much better. The connotation can be summed up in two words. I'll only say it once."

"2V1, bullying?" Ji In-young added fuel to the fire, wishing they could start fighting.

Seeing that their teammates were increasingly eager to watch the show, Cho Yumi and An Joo-hyun looked at each other and tacitly shut their mouths.

Okay...the mini-theater is over.

Lu Wei shrugged in a good mood.

After some banter, everyone arrived at the makeup room. After waving to each other, they dispersed and headed towards their different makeup artists.

Lu Wei had no requirements for makeup or styling, so she simply found a free makeup artist and politely asked, "Hello, teacher, are you free now? Can you help me with my makeup?"

Ke Xing heard the voice and slowly looked up. The moment she saw it was Lu Wei, her eyes brightened significantly. Her dream sweetheart had actually come to her door.

This girl's face is truly stunning. She styled the first public performance and is also the face of the official photos. What the hell! This is fate! This is God's reward for her hard work!

"Okay, okay, there's no one here, you sit down first." Ke Xing spoke faster unconsciously, his excitement evident in his words.

enmmm......

Why did Lu Wei feel that there was something wrong with the makeup artist's smile?

It's weird and makes people feel uneasy.

For a celebrity like her, there shouldn't be any talk of her being sent undercover by her rivals. And this sister looks familiar, maybe she's the makeup artist from the last public performance.

Lu Wei turned his head slightly, dismissed his strange thoughts, and leaned slightly towards the makeup artist: "Thank you, teacher, thank you for the trouble."

"You're welcome." Ke Xing waved his hand and carefully considered the formula that would suit Lu Wei.

Generally speaking, the main focus of this type of photo is on the upper body, that is, above the chest. Therefore, don't overly pursue the overall atmosphere. The more delicate the makeup, the better, so that the visual center of gravity is focused.

After thinking it through, Ke Xing picked up the powder puff and started patting Lu Wei's face.

As usual, Lu Weize leaned his head back, closed his eyes peacefully, and fell into a sweet sleep.

When she woke up in a daze, the overall look was already finalized.

A clear and clean base makeup, thick and curled eyelashes, pink and moist lips, and a princess-style look with half-down hair.

OMG!!!

This is too handmade!!!

The Metamorphosis is no different.

Goryeo makeup is indeed worthy of its reputation.

"OK, that's it." Ke Xing placed two symmetrical pearl hairpins on each side of her hair. The embellishment of these small accessories brought out the exquisite feeling, and her maternal love also overflowed.

Looking at the makeup look he had personally created, Ke Xing couldn't help but lower his voice: "How is it? Are you satisfied?"

"I'm satisfied. Thank you for your hard work, teacher." Lu Wei turned his eyes away from the mirror, stood up and bowed to express his gratitude.

"No, no, no, it's not hard." Ke Xing waved his hands and looked at Lu Wei embarrassedly and said, "Um...can you please not call me teacher? I'm older than you, so just call me sister."

ha? ? ?

Lu Wei blinked. Although she didn’t quite understand, she still satisfied the makeup artist: “Hello, sister. Thank you for putting on my makeup.”

OMG!!!

so cute! ! !

She calls herself sister!!!

Ke Xing clenched her hands, her mouth curling up behind her ears. She was the happiest person in the room today, bar none.

After these days of training, Lu Wei, who had a very deep understanding of facial expression management, suddenly realized something and his eyes widened in disbelief.

No way?

Is her protagonist halo in place?

Or did it just happen to hit the teacher's liking?

Lu Wei didn't have time to think about it. Seeing her teammates who had finished their makeup waving at her, she bowed slightly to Ke Xing and said politely, "Sorry, I have to go now. See you next time, sister."

"Xiao Wei, see you next time." Ke Xing waved her hand with an auntie smile on her face, watching Lu Wei leave the dressing room.

After meeting up with his teammates, Lu Wei, under the guidance of the staff, walked towards the location for taking the official photos.

As An Zhuxuan stepped forward, she couldn't help but glance at Lu Wei. This person was already beautiful without makeup, and she looked even better with makeup.

Ah Xi, she couldn't help but be moved, how could others resist? If there was a face election later, she would vote for Lu Wei no matter what.

Jin Youli's temples were throbbing with pain, perhaps a headache. Fortunately, Lu Wei had a green card, so she wasn't too worried.

Arriving at the shooting location, Lu Wei felt that many people were glancing at her.

To be honest, she could understand.

The two-dimensional world shines into reality, and it is hard not to take a second look at this exquisite figure.

It’s just… well… forget it.

Only she knows her melancholy.

Everyone waited in the greenhouse for a while. After the previous group of contestants finished filming, the staff said, "Come one by one."

"Okay, then I'll go over first." Kim Yoo-ri greeted her teammates, without making any arrangements about the order, and walked directly to the white background wall.

The flashbulbs clicked on, and Lu Wei deliberately cleared her mind, pushing the worries out of her brain. After several changes of personnel, the person standing under the lighting board became her.

"OK, look at me!" The photography teacher gestured for Lu Wei to look at the camera.

Hearing the voice, Lu Wei straightened his spine and focused his eyes on one point, without any emotion on his face.

Official photos are similar to ID photos, so you shouldn't have to smile deliberately.

"Click, click~~~" The flash lights lit up quickly, and Lu Wei began to admire the celebrity artists on the red carpet.

Under the high-intensity exposure, she remained motionless, her eyes sore that she wanted to cry.

The photographer took pictures at the same angle for a while, then moved to the computer screen and frowned as he looked at the picture that did not require any retouching at all.

She is pretty but lacks affinity.

This is not a bad idea, it just lacks some meaning.

"Contestant Lu Wei, let's change the pose. Your body doesn't need to be so stiff, it should be more lively." The photographer returned to the shooting point and began to give action instructions.

"Okay." Lu Wei nodded obediently and made the all-purpose scissors hand gesture towards the camera.

Oh yeah! !

Lively enough!!

“…”

The photographer was silent. The contestant making the scissors hand gesture was not scary. What was scary was that he made two symmetrical gestures, one on the left and one on the right.

A sense of stupidity comes over me.

It conflicts with Lu Wei's exquisite rich girl style and looks very out of place.

The photographer thought for a moment, put down his camera, and instructed, "Tilt your head slightly and make a heart shape on your cheek with one hand."

"Okay." Lu Wei understood, raised his left hand and placed it on his cheek, then tilted his head to the right.

"Oh..." The photographer was helpless. Are the foreign players' thinking processes so weird?

Shouldn't it be tilted to the left? Tilting the head the other way doesn't look like a heart shape, it looks more like a stiff neck from not sleeping well.

Lu Wei noticed the photographer's anomaly and blinked innocently. This is how she took photos when she traveled, and it looked pretty good.

And she doesn't seem to be in a very down mood~~~ Her frustration and sadness have been suppressed over and over again, so it's impossible for them to be reflected in the photo...So what's the problem?

Is it possible that the camera is broken?

Or maybe this greenhouse conflicts with her attributes.

Lu Wei naturally shifted the blame in her heart, after all, she was nicknamed the non-stick pan.

"Forget it, forget it. Just do what you want and try a more relaxed pose." The photographer didn't force him.

"OK."

After making the V sign with both hands, Lu Wei created a series of classic moves such as ticking the chin and making a heart shape with the top of the head.

The photographer completely lost his temper. These photos are actually quite cute after looking at them many times. There is an inexplicable sense of contrast.

The first one, which is a bit more formal, can be used as a voting photo. It depends on whether the program team wants to release the rest.

"Okay, next." The photographer waved her hand, prompting Lu Wei to quickly disappear from her sight. With such a beautiful face, not to mention fashion blockbusters, it was such a waste to look like that in a photoshoot.

After completing the official photo shoot, Lu Wei breathed a sigh of relief, bowed in the direction of the staff, and quickly left the greenhouse.

Before she could reunite with her teammates and take off her uniform, a staff member with a blue badge approached her and said, "There are spectators and fans waiting outside. Go out and say hello."

"Huh???" Lu Wei couldn't believe what she heard. A greeting? Was that what she thought?

Is the program crew so short of exposure?

If there is no Reuters, we will create one forcibly.

"Let's go." The staff motioned Lu Wei to follow.

"Is everyone going? Just my teammates? And my sister? No one should know me. Can I not go?" Lu Wei tried to dissuade the staff from going out alone. It would be really embarrassing.

"No~~~ The others have already gone over. You can come back after you say hello."

Hearing these cold words, Lu Wei felt a little dizzy and his steps became heavier.

Ah...this...

What a sin...

Led by the staff, she arrived at the main entrance. Through the glass, she saw the crowds of people standing by the railings on both sides, and her facial features wrinkled.

"Go ahead." The staff patted Lu Wei's shoulder gently and said encouragingly.

Lu Wei kept looking back, wanting to cling to the glass door. It was the first time she realized how terrified she was of crowds without her teammates.

No, that is to say, can she wait here for the other contestants to come, and then go over together?

The staff waiting nearby saw what Lu Wei meant and waved at her again. The sooner they finished, the sooner they could go back.

OK...

Lu Wei pursed her lips, nervously walked out of the glass door, and entered the sight of the onlookers.

The contestants who have not left the field are scattered in various areas, enthusiastically greeting people on both sides of the railings.

Lu Wei saw Jin Youli and Li Enxing. Seeing that they were in business mode and the flash lights kept circling around them, he did not go over to them to seek a sense of security.

She took three steps at a time and moved towards a place where there were fewer people, ready to wave goodbye and leave.

"Hey! Look! Bambi!" Wen Xiujing nudged her friend who was holding a gun and a cannon next to her, staring at Lu Wei without moving her eyes.

"!!!" Sun Yuli quickly raised the camera. She had come to the right place. This was the seeded player worth betting on.

Lu Wei swallowed unnaturally, the perfect tension dissolving the sense of distance on his body, and coupled with the overall look, it made people inexplicably feel a desire to protect him.

"Xiao Wei! Look here!!!" Ming Shunai waved vigorously at Lu Wei. Since the end of the first public performance, she has been paying attention to the news about the fight between the obscure groups.

God helps those who work hard, and she finally got her chance.

Lu Wei felt overly nervous and was even hallucinating. He silently counted down the seconds to 10...9...8...in his mind, intending to retreat as soon as the number reached zero.

"Xiao Wei!!! Mommy loves you!!!" Seeing that Lu Wei didn't hear her, Ming Shunai shouted again, which not only attracted Lu Wei's shocked gaze, but also attracted the attention of others.

"Wow! Who is this sister!"

"It's so beautiful and stands out! It doesn't feel like a sea of people at all."

"How can such a person still exist in this chaotic group?"

"Quickly take pictures, such a beautiful sister should appear in my memory card."

"My camera could use some good food."

"So, how did she flop? I'm really curious."

"Her eyes are red. What should I do? I really want to see my sister cry."

"Don't be too naughty, although I want to be."

Shutters clicked, and a constant stream of flashes hit Lu Wei's face. The previously remote and empty corner was instantly filled with people.

!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lu Wei's mind was filled with exclamation points, and she was completely devastated. Could the sisters please stop filming now and wait until the show airs before placing their bets? "How's everything, Xiaowei?" Ming Shunai asked loudly, leaning over to the railing and putting down her camera. Lu Wei heard her name again, regaining consciousness and politely waved in Ming Shunai's direction. Afraid she wouldn't hear him clearly, she nodded and mouthed the words, "Fine."

Thinking it was almost time, Lu Wei bowed deeply to both sides of the railing and quickly left the scene. If she stayed any longer, she was afraid she would have strange fantasies.

Seeing this, Ming Shunai could only wave and say goodbye: "Xiaowei, take care of yourself! I will always support you!!!"

When Lu Wei heard the voice, he paused in his steps and turned around to look back, the corners of his mouth curled up involuntarily.

A gentle breeze caressed her hair, and her bright, gentle smile shone like fireworks. Everyone understood the meaning of the word "stunning." At this moment, the world faded away, leaving only one place with color.

Ming Shunai's heart began to thump! thump! thump! and it took him a while to come back to his senses.

"Hi~~Miss, is her name Xiaowei?" Sun Yuli walked up to Ming Shunai and asked politely.

Others who were bewitched by the beauty stopped what they were doing and pricked up their ears to listen.

"Yes, yes, her name is Lu Wei. She performed very well in the first public performance. It's definitely right to like her." Ming Shunai began to promote the show. Anyone who came here on a weekday couldn't possibly not pay attention to the show. It would be great if he developed a good impression of Lu Wei because of this.

"Then how about we add each other's contact information? I like her too." Sun Yuli took out her cell phone with great initiative.

If nothing else, just for this beauty, Lu Wei, this contestant, is worth her bet. She's seen too many ugly capitalist children, she needs to clean her eyes.

"Okay." Ming Shunai silently added the contact information of several people. Thinking of the information he had collected before, he deliberately gave a warning: "There are very few materials about Xiaowei. Most of the stage is just borders, with only a vague figure. If you want it, I'll send it to you later."

"It's okay, it's okay." Sun Yuri waved her hand. As long as she was not disqualified as an idol, it didn't matter if she had less materials. After participating in the show, there would be plenty of opportunities to make up for what she had missed in the past.

After having a clear goal, the group stood in the corner and chatted while casually raising their cameras.
