Chapter 25 It’s normal to like my brother. It’s human nature.
July 23, in the practice room of the "Warm the Wine" group.
[I found a problem.] Jiang Huai said, [Yu Lan's storyline is too thin. The program has been recorded for half a month, and if I am not counted, he has no other acquaintances.]
So much so that now he was standing in the practice room with Yu Lan's vest on, and there was no one he could talk to.
The system said sarcastically: [Wow, you discovered this obvious problem so quickly, didn't you?]
Jiang Huai: […Speak properly.]
The system said seriously: [Oh. But why did you give him a complete story line? ]
[If this continues, his debut position will be unstable. 】
The system asked back: [Then why did you let Yu Lan debut? It doesn't matter if he debuts or not, as long as he can rely on his face and CP to get into the finals, and suck your blood until the last round, isn't it enough. There are only 9 debut positions, which is more difficult, and the finals are still easy. It would be better if he didn't debut, and he actually hugged Huai Lan on the night of the finals, and Huai Lan was buried in a grand manner. ]
Jiang Huai was silent for three seconds: [I feel a little sorry for Yu Lan's fans. ]
He discovered at the last fan meeting that Yu Lan even had quite a lot of solo recommendations.
Although this pseudonym's character is thin, and apart from his face and CP, the only improvement he has made is the one deliberately created by Jiang Huai, but his face is really good, and his CP is really good. There are really quite a few fans who are into first love and chasing stars, and quite a few of them were deceived into the second dimension by Lan Tai's painting.
The system suddenly started singing a beautiful song, but Jiang Huai didn't understand it.
He had a feeling that the lyrics didn't have a good meaning, so he interrupted and said, "Stop singing, let's talk business."
[Host, you are really a sinful man.] The system said righteously, [Your heart is now divided into two halves, one half is for your own fans, and the other half is for Yu Lan's fans.]
[In a sense, Yu Lan is also me. ]
[That's right. So what do you want to do now? Improve Yu Lan's storyline? But now all the trainees know that he only plays with you and hardly talks to others. He is not the type of person who will actively socialize.]
Jiang Huai's gaze slowly shifted to Zhou Chengwen, who was standing in the center of the practice room, mingling lively with other group members, in stark contrast to Yu Lan, who was standing alone in the corner growing mushrooms.
He smiled: [Isn’t it here? ]
The system instantly understood Jiang Huai's thoughts: [Genius host! ]
At noon that day.
There was more than enough time for practice, and Jiang Huai's "Witch Coven" unanimously decided to leave early today to take a lunch break.
He quickly reached the door of the practice room for "Warming the Wine". The group had so much fun chatting that morning that they fell behind in progress, and now they were working overtime to make up for the loss.
But even if he worked overtime, he still had to eat. Not long after, Zhou Chengwen came out from the crowd and greeted Jiang Huai at the door with a question: "Brother Jiang, why are you here?"
He turned around and saw Yu Lan behind him: "Oh, so that's how it is."
Not wanting to bother about what Zhou Chengwen meant by this, Jiang Huai said firmly: "Let's have lunch together at noon?"
Zhou Chengwen pointed at himself, as if he couldn't believe it: "Are you talking about me?"
"Yes." Jiang Huai confirmed again and looked at Yu Lan, "The three of us."
In the first few days when he was not familiar with his classmates, Jiang Huai ate with three people from the same company and the same dormitory. Later, the practice times of each class were staggered, and everyone had friends they could talk to better, so they naturally disbanded.
Zhou Chengwen paid no attention to the camera at all. He ate as happily as ever, concentrating on gnawing on the ribs in the iron plate.
Unfortunately, the person who invited him to dinner today had other intentions.
"Zhou Chengwen." Jiang Huai called.
The person whose name was called raised his face from the plate and said, "What's the matter?"
Jiang Huai hesitated to speak. Forget it, Zhou Chengwen doesn't want to debut anyway, so if he doesn't care about his image, then he doesn't care about it.
Jiang Huai spread his hands and pointed at Yu Lan beside him: "This is Yu Lan."
Yu Lan nodded: "Yes, I am Yu Lan."
He pointed to Zhou Chengwen standing opposite him and said, "This is Zhou Chengwen."
Jiang Huai clasped his hands together: "Would you like to get to know each other now?"
It’s fine that Yu Lan speaks like a robot, but what’s wrong with his brother Jiang today?
Zhou Chengwen wiped his mouth and said, "I already know Yu Lan."
Jiang Huai: "I mean, we know each other as friends."
Zhou Chengwen just felt like there was a book of Ten Thousand Whys open in his mind, flipping pages madly.
Jiang Huai looked at the other party's puzzled expression and realized that with some people he really could only speak frankly, otherwise it would be like talking to a cow, or even worse than talking to a cow.
A cow may understand the beauty of music, but Zhou Chengwen definitely cannot understand any obscure words.
He coughed lightly and said, "It's like this, Yu Lan is quite socially anxious. He told me before that he didn't have many friends and couldn't get a word in during the practice room. I thought you were popular, could you bring him along to play with us?"
Now I understand. Zhou Chengwen looked at Yu Lan's calm face and suppressed the question in his heart: "Did Yu Lan really propose this? Why does it feel more like he was coerced by Brother Jiang?" "Okay! Leave it to me!"
Just help Brother Jiang take care of his sister-in-law. How easy is that?
And Zhou Chengwen is definitely not that kind of thief!
Jiang Huai had no idea of Zhou Chengwen's psychological activities. After solving Yu Lan's worrying interpersonal communication problems, he felt much better in the practice room in the afternoon.
The song "Witches' Coven" has a Western fantasy style and the dance moves are not difficult, but the original singing group has nine members, so the movements are more complicated and varied.
When the grouping results came out, everyone assumed that Jiang Huai, who had the strongest strength, would automatically be elected as the team leader.
Thanks to the enhanced spirit after having the system, his memory is now better than before. Yesterday, Jiang Huai took advantage of the break to review the dance, and in the afternoon he led the team members to go through the movements. This morning he worked on some more details. The dance part will come to an end for now, and will be deepened and consolidated when practicing the movement lines later.
Before practicing the movement route, we had to divide the group into parts. There was no troublemaker in the group this time. Everyone said that they wanted to give C to Jiang Huai, the team leader who had done the most work, but he refused.
This time, the girl group special only filmed a practice room, so the C position is not very meaningful. It is better to give the position to someone who needs the camera more, and do a favor. It can also make fans sigh that our Jiang Huai is really handsome and kind.
The final C position of the group is a player named Wei Xingzhou. According to his acquaintances, he is usually quite middle school, which perfectly fits the concept of "Witch Coven".
On the other side, after dinner, Zhou Chengwen and Yu Lan returned to the practice room together.
As soon as the two said goodbye to Jiang Huai and left, Zhou Chengwen couldn't wait to ask: "Do you really want to play with others? Or does Jiang Ge think you should find someone else to play with, so he forced you?"
Jiang Huai, who was manipulating Yu Lan, said: "...He didn't force me. I just wanted to talk to someone."
He began to doubt what kind of image he had in Zhou Chengwen's mind, so he threw out a bait in a gentle voice: "Are you familiar with Jiang Huai?"
Zhou Chengwen said without hesitation: "Of course, we are from the same company. We were in high-intensity training before the show started. Jiang Ge was very nice. Even though his first stage was very difficult, he helped us practice every day, just like an assistant teacher."
He chuckled: "Actually, I admire Brother Jiang very much, so even though I'm two years older than him, I still call him Brother. Brother Jiang is really, too perfect."
Zhou Chengwen counted them one by one on his fingers: "He is handsome, talented, has a good personality, and has many fans. He will definitely make a lot of money after his debut. I am really not jealous of him making money at all."
He patted Yu Lan on the shoulder and said, "It's normal to like my brother. It's human nature. I don't discriminate against homosexuals."
Jiang Huai, who was quite moved by Zhou Chengwen's praise, said: ...? Why don't you discriminate against homosexuals? Who asked you this?
He gritted his teeth and said, "We are not what you think. It's just that I—"
The two of them just happened to return to the recording area from the camera's blind spot, and Zhou Chengwen quickly interrupted the somewhat dangerous topic: "Hey, I understand, I understand."
Just? What else could it be? It must be that Yu Lan has a one-sided crush on his brother.
Jiang Huai was silent for three seconds and decided to give up explaining.
When people already look at a problem with a preconceived notion, it is very difficult to correct them back to the correct way of thinking.
He didn't know what Zhou Chengwen understood, he just felt that Zhou Chengwen understood nothing at all.
The traditional Chinese song "Let's Warm the Wine" has fan elements, so the program team gave everyone a folding fan.
The last time Jiang Huai twirled a fan was when he was filming a short drama. He played the second male lead who waved a fan. It had been a long time since he had come across this type of dance. When practicing, he inadvertently used too much force and twirled a beautiful fan flower on his first try.
Zhou Chengwen, who was keeping an eye on Yu Lan and trying to find a chance to help him strike up a conversation with other people, quickly asked, "Yu Lan, how did you turn? Can you teach me?"
Hearing this, everyone in the practice room looked in the direction of Yu Lan.
Jiang Huai walked up to Zhou Chengwen and repeated the action just now.
Zhou Chengwen followed suit, but there was a problem when folding the fan.
He tried to turn it for a long time but still couldn't figure it out: "Can you demonstrate it again more slowly?"
"Of course." Jiang Huai laughed, and then demonstrated it perfectly at 0.5 times the speed, "When closing the fan, you have to lift your wrist up."
Zhou Chengwen seemed to understand, so he practiced it a few more times. Five minutes later, he shouted, "I understand, I understand! Sister-in-law—"
His words stopped abruptly: "Sri Lanka No. 1! Teacher Yu!"
[Did he want to call me sister-in-law just now? ] Jiang Huai asked in disbelief.
【According to my detection, he did pronounce sao, the third tone.】
If life is a comic book, Jiang Huai guessed that there must be several pound signs and question marks drawn on his head right now, but he still maintained that cold look on his face, revealing only a very faint smile: "It's good as long as you learn it."
When the others saw Zhou Chengwen's happy expression after learning it, and found that Yu Lan was not as unapproachable as she looked, they struggled a little and soon surrounded him to ask questions. Jiang Huai took turns and patiently taught them one by one.
Obviously the results are fruitful.
After almost half a month of recording the program, Yu Lan finally succeeded in speaking more than ten sentences to someone other than Jiang Huai himself.
