The next day.
Today was the time Ye Yi and Li Sizhe had agreed on.
When Ye Yi arrived, Li Sizhe, Shen Hao and two other team members, Liu Ning and Yang Ming, were already waiting in the company.
Li Sizhe was still very confident, and it seemed that he was determined to get the position of captain.
Shen Hao, on the other hand, looked very calm.
Ye Yi called Nan Qinwan and Dong Mingxuan to go together.
"Boss Ye, let me go first." Li Sizhe couldn't wait to take the first step forward.
Ye Yi nodded.
Li Sizhe began his performance.
Li Sizhe danced a boy group dance that has been popular recently.
Both the strength and the details were done very well. Ye Yi nodded with satisfaction, and it seemed that she had not found any mistakes.
After the dance,
Li Sizhe cast a smug look at Shen Hao.
Shen Hao smiled at Li Sizhe and was the first to applaud, followed by the others.
Li Sizhe suddenly felt like he had punched cotton and hummed at Shen Hao.
"Not bad." Ye Yi commented on Li Sizhe's dance truthfully, and she had more confidence in this boy band.
Next it was Shen Hao's turn to perform.
Shen Hao first bowed to everyone, and then began to perform.
Li Sizhe muttered quietly to the side: "Huh, so pretentious."
Shen Hao also danced a boy band dance, but he sang a song while dancing.
The moment Shen Hao started to sing, Li Sizhe was stunned.
Ye Yi and Nan Qinwan looked at each other, and both nodded with satisfaction.
When Shen Hao's performance ended, Ye Yi took the lead in applauding and looked at Shen Hao with satisfaction: "Did you write this song yourself?"
Shen Hao nodded.
Li Sizhe stepped forward and grabbed Shen Hao's hand, shouting in disbelief: "You can actually write songs?"
Dong Mingxuan stepped forward and pulled the two people apart: "Don't get excited, don't get excited."
After being pulled apart, Li Sizhe still stared at Shen Hao, with a pitiful look of being deceived.
The other two were also shocked. It seemed that they didn't know that Shen Hao could write songs.
Shen Hao obviously didn't intend to explain, but just glanced at Ye Yi.
"Do you still have any objections to Shen Hao being the captain?" Ye Yi glanced at the three of them.
Liu Yu and Yang Ming both shook their heads. Originally, the two of them were more inclined to let Shen Hao be the captain, so naturally they had no objection at all.
Only Li Sizhe was left staring at Shen Hao in disbelief.
Ye Yi stood up, walked to Li Sizhe's side, and patted his shoulder: "Now you know why I chose him to be the captain."
Li Sizhe lowered his head and hummed a little frustrated.
It can be seen that he was very confident in himself before. If you only look at their dancing skills, they are indeed evenly matched, but Shen Hao can also write songs.
Liu Yu and Yang Ming went forward to comfort Li Sizhe.
It would have been better if they didn't comfort him. As soon as they comforted him, Li Sizhe felt even more uncomfortable.
Ye Yi gave them space to adjust their mentality and called Shen Hao out.
Ye Yi took Shen Hao to the office and motioned for Shen Hao to sit on the sofa.
"Did you write the lyrics and compose the music for this song by yourself?"
Shen Hao nodded and said in a low voice, "I wrote it myself, and I also wrote the singles for the previous company."
After Shen Hao said these words, he had been silently observing Ye Yi's reaction.
Would she think that he was just talking nonsense?
Ye Yi was indeed a little surprised to hear what Shen Hao said. Shen Hao's previous group had also released several popular songs, but the lyrics and music were written by another person.
However, Ye Yi had been in the entertainment industry for many years after all, and she quickly realized that this must be Shen Hao's previous company trying to promote other people.
Ye Yi knew what Shen Hao was worried about, and said seriously, "Don't worry, your work will always be yours."
Shen Hao smiled at Ye Yi, and it seemed that he was not wrong this time.
Ye Yi thought of the main purpose of her visit to Shen Hao this time, her face was a little heavy: "You should know that the company plans to send you to participate in "Debut, Idol" right?"
Nan Qinwan had indeed told Shen Hao and the others about this matter in advance. Shen Hao nodded. Then asked: "Is there anything we need to pay attention to?"
Ye Yi looked at Shen Hao with admiration. He was indeed the captain she chose. His brain was really good: "People from this variety show Haitian Entertainment will also participate, and they are also a boy group with the same number of people as you. They will be your biggest competitors."
Shen Hao's face also began to become serious. Haitian Entertainment is the leader of the entertainment industry, and Haitian Entertainment and his own company are originally rivals. When the time comes, they will definitely target them.
Ye Yi let out a long sigh and continued, "And Lan Xue is also one of the judges this time."
Shen Hao couldn't hold back his anger anymore, and looked at Ye Yi with resentment, "Boss Ye, you're not leaving us any chance to survive. There are wolves in front and tigers behind."
Ye Yi felt guilty, who could have thought that it would be such a coincidence.
But as a boss, how could she feel guilty about such a small thing?
As an employee, what you have to do is to complete the tasks assigned by the boss, not to question the boss.
Ye Yi cleared her throat, "Although the pressure this time is indeed greater, this program adopts the audience's online voting method for advancement. As long as you perform well, these are not a problem."
"Mr. Ye, what if we don't advance?"
Ye Yi showed Shen Hao a brilliant smile, and Shen Hao felt a chill on his back for some reason.
"If we are eliminated in the first round, then all of you will have to raise pigs for me!"
Thinking of raising pigs, Shen Hao, who has a slight obsession with cleanliness, immediately changed his expression.
His tone was very firm: "Mr. Ye, don't worry, we will definitely not be eliminated in the first round!"
He didn't say the second half of the sentence: We will have to make it to the second round before being eliminated.
But he didn't dare to say this, otherwise Ye Yi would send them to raise pigs right now.
Ye Yi nodded with satisfaction.
"By the way, as the captain, remember to regulate the emotions of your teammates. I don't want you to get into chaos before you're eliminated."
Although Ye Yi didn't say it directly, Shen Hao knew she was talking about Li Sizhe.
Li Sizhe was too proud. He must have been unable to accept such a big blow for a while.
This was also Ye Yi's test for Li Sizhe as the captain. A captain must not only have outstanding abilities, but most importantly, he must be able to unite the team members.
After Shen Hao left, Nan Qinwan and Dong Mingxuan came in together. As soon
as Dong Mingxuan entered the office, he gave Ye Yi a thumbs up in a very servile manner. In an exaggerated tone, he said, "Sister Ye, you really have a good eye for talent. Shen Hao can actually write songs. This directly saves the company a manpower."
Ye Yi glared at Dong Mingxuan, "What are you talking about? Am I the kind of person who oppresses employees?"
Dong Mingxuan didn't say anything, but the expression on his face was: Yes, you are that kind of person.
Ye Yi was so angry that she wanted to go up and beat him up.
Nan Qinwan put a pile of documents on Ye Yi's desk, "Here are some of the more suitable dramas I found for you recently. See which one you want to play."
Dong Mingxuan deliberately teased with a surprised look on his face, "Hey, Sister Ye, you are finally ready to start work. I thought you were going to wait until after the New Year to start work."
Ye Yi's fists hardened. What kind of words were these? He spoke as if he was lazy.
I'm busy dealing with the company's affairs.
Suddenly,
Ye Yi thought of something and stared at Dong Mingxuan gloomily: "I remember you're going to audition tomorrow, right? If you don't perform well, hmm."
Ye Yi moved her hands, and her joints creaked.
Dong Mingxuan felt a chill on his back. He said, "I'm going to read the script."
Then he ran out quickly.
Ye Yi began to select the script that Nan Qinwan brought.
While Ye Yi was reading the script, Nan Qinwan introduced some good scripts to her.
"This one is by the famous director Yang, and the cast is very strong..."
"This one is by Director Zhang, and the plot is good and quite attractive..."
"This one is also good, and the character design is very good..."
Ye Yi looked at these scripts carefully. She had basically filmed these scripts in her previous life, and she wanted to find a different one to break through herself.
Just at this time.
She finally saw a script that made her eyes light up.
This role is only a supporting role, but it runs through the whole play.
This character is a mother who went crazy after losing her child. Before she went crazy, she was a lady from a wealthy family. After she went crazy, she was locked up in a mental hospital.
Her child is the heroine. After seeing the heroine, this crazy woman who had been crazy for many years suddenly sobered up, as if she had never been crazy before.
But this character died in the end to save the heroine.
This role seems to play a small role in the script, but it runs through the whole text.
What caught Ye Yi's eyes was the character setting of this role. First, he was a madman, and then a lady from a wealthy family.
It is easy to play a lady from a wealthy family, and it is also easy to play a madman, but it is very difficult to play a lady from a wealthy family who goes crazy and then sobers up.
If you try too hard, the audience will feel that there is no way to connect the past and the present, but if your acting skills are not good, you can't perform the feeling of a madman.
Ye Yi handed the script to Nan Qinwan.
Nan Qinwan was a little hesitant to speak when she saw the script that Ye Yi had chosen.
After a long while, she finally spoke: "The age of this role doesn't quite match you, and this role can't give you a personality."
Originally, Nan Qinwan planned to give Ye Yi a personality, and the future acting line would develop in this direction, but Ye Yi's choice was really a bit beyond her expectations.
Ye Yi also knew Nan Qinwan's concerns. For a newcomer, this role was indeed not very suitable, but Ye Yi chose this role, on the one hand, because she wanted to challenge herself.
And also.
She wanted to give someone a reputation.
Although this role will not be too popular at that time, the probability of winning an award is very high.
"Just choose this one."
Seeing Ye Yi insisted, Nan Qinwan didn't say anything else. She believed that Ye Yi must have her own ideas for choosing this.
...
The next day Dong Mingxuan was going to audition.
Ye Yi came to the company early.
Ye Yi was shocked when she saw the dark circles under Dong Mingxuan's eyes: "Oh my god, did you not sleep all night?"
Dong Mingxuan said frustratedly: "I can't sleep."
He was very nervous when he thought about auditioning with a group of big guys today.
Ye Yi looked at Dong Mingxuan with disdain: "You are so promising."
Dong Mingxuan lowered his head like a quail, his voice very low: "I feel like I'm really not good enough."
Ye Yi saw that Dong Mingxuan was in a very bad condition, reached out and patted him on the shoulder: "The pressure is indeed a bit great this time, it's okay, even if you fail, at least you have tried your best, at least you have taken this step."
Dong Mingxuan looked at Ye Yi pitifully: "Sister Ye, you won't dislike me if I don't perform well, right?"
Ye Yi was a little amused, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, even if you are a piece of shit, I won't dislike you."
"You are the piece of shit!" Dong Mingxuan said and ran out before Ye Yi could react.
Ye Yi looked at Dong Mingxuan who had already run a long way away, and shook her head helplessly: "This boy is getting more and more courageous."
After watching Dong Mingxuan leave, Ye Yi returned to the office and continued to deal with things.
Recently, the company has recruited several new artists, and Ye Yi has to see in which direction these people are suitable for development.
Now the company is in its starting stage. Although she and Dong Mingxuan have made a lot of money, it is still far from enough.
Ye Yi leaned back in the chair irritably.
Oh God, why can't you let me get rich overnight?
If it really doesn't work, I can wait for two nights.
Just when Ye Yi was leaning back in the chair, her phone rang.
It was still an unfamiliar number.
After Ye Yi answered the call, a female voice came from the other end.
"Ye Yi, I give up."
Ye Yi: Huh? What the hell?
Ye Yi asked in confusion: "Did you dial the wrong number?"
There was silence on the other end of the phone for a moment. Just when Ye Yi was about to hang up, a roar came from the other end of the phone: "Ye Yi! You can't recognize my voice!!"
"No, should I recognize your voice?"
The voice on the other end of the phone became quieter: "That's right, it seems that we are not very familiar with each other yet."
Ye Yi thought that this person dialed the wrong number and was about to hang up the phone.
The person on the other end of the phone introduced herself: "I'm Yang Xin. I've seen your movie, and I believe you didn't use any backdoors. I admit that I lost to you, and I've already apologized to you on Weibo. Remember to reply me, otherwise I'll be embarrassed. And your WeChat number is this, right? I've added you."
Ye Yi hummed in a daze, and only after hanging up the phone did she slowly think about what Yang Xin said.
Apologize to herself?
It seems that Yang Xin did say at the banquet that if she didn't use any backdoors, she would publicly apologize to herself on Weibo. Ye Yi thought she was just joking, but she didn't expect her to really do it. After
the phone was hung up, a friend request popped up on WeChat. After Ye Yi accepted it, Yang Xin started bombarding her with messages.
Yang Xin: How did your acting skills improve so much?
Yang Xin: Have you secretly signed up for some master's class? Can you introduce him to me and I will give you money?
Yang Xin: Are you superstitious?
Yang Xin: Where are you?
Yang Xin: Why don't you reply to my message?
Ye Yi felt a headache. She shouldn't have agreed to it.
After a few perfunctory words, Ye Yi made an excuse that she was busy.
Yang Xin's gossip level is really comparable to Dong Mingxuan.
