17 Debut group list
Before announcing the final results, the teachers usually have to meet and chat briefly. The trainees are allowed to rest for half an hour, and the gathering time will be notified separately.
As soon as Yu Le walked out of the door, he instantly turned into a large pendant on Yan Fan's body, hugging his brother and whining, "It's over, it's over, Brother Fan, I feel like I didn't behave well at all just now, you don't even know the way Sister Xiaoxiao looked at me, I feel like I'm going to be eliminated, wuwuwu, if I'm eliminated, I won't be able to see you anymore, Brother Fan, wuwuwu."
Yan Fan let him hang there helplessly, and couldn't help but stretch out his hand to pinch little Yu Le's face. The child still had some baby fat on his face, and it felt very good to touch. "It's not bad. I saw it, and it danced well."
This kid is recognized as the one who has made the fastest progress among everyone, but he always lacks self-confidence.
“Brother Fan, you don’t know.” Yu Le was as sad as a little frog. “If I get eliminated this time, my parents will definitely not let me be a trainee again. Wuwuwuwu——”
There was a reason why he was so nervous. Yuan Xiao never said what the elimination criteria were. Except for Yan Fan and Su Chen, who always ranked first and second, no one else dared to say that they could guarantee to enter the next stage. These two people were indeed far ahead in the dance and vocal tracks. Even if they were swapped, they were still above the standard. Yan Fan's baritone was invincible, and Su Chen's dancing was also very contagious. It was completely impossible to tell that they had only learned for a few months.
Suddenly, a hand reached out and rubbed his head. Yu Le turned his head to meet Pei Zijin's smiling eyes, and his mouth pursed as he started again, "Brother Pei Pei——"
Yan Fan held his forehead helplessly, but refused to turn around to look at Pei Zijin.
Yan Fan and Pei Zijin have always been at odds. He has a pretty face but a hot temper. He thinks he is not the same type as Pei Zijin, who can smile and chat with anyone he meets. Yan Fan is the top street dancer among the trainees and is considered a half-dance teacher. He never hides his skills but is also very strict. A few days ago, when he was scolding a fellow trainee in the practice room, Pei Zijin, who passed by, misunderstood that he had intervened in the quarrel and is still feeling awkward.
Yu Le has a good relationship with both sides. He is the youngest trainee and the brothers take good care of him.
This kid is also a person who doesn’t bear grudges. He has the best relationship with Yan Fan, who is recognized as having the worst temper. Even if he is almost crying because of the strict brother Fan, he will still follow his brother and ask how to do the next section. Maybe it is because of this that he has become the one who has made the fastest progress. It is always difficult for good brothers to refuse Xiao Yule’s request. Later, Yan Fan was worried whether he would be bullied outside. After all, he can’t have a soft face and a soft personality, right?
Jin Zeyu stood beside him with his hands in his pockets, sweat on his forehead, and squinted lazily as he watched Pei Zijin teasing the child, "What if I can't see Brother Pei Pei in the future? Will you miss me too?"
He arrived two weeks late. When he first showed up, he was like a wild wind blowing into the ivory tower. He was a cool guy with a short haircut and a broken eyebrow, and he looked out of place among the trainees. It's not that no one talked about this transfer student behind his back, but Jin Zeyu didn't care about such things at all, and he was too lazy to make friends with anyone. After three months, he was only a little more familiar with Pei Zijin, who took the same creative class.
Perhaps among the more than 80 people present, only Jin Zeyu had no idea about the next outcome, and his mentality of coming here to get free tutoring was even purer than Avery's.

It was said to be half an hour, but in reality we waited for more than 40 minutes. The people outside were in agony, and the people inside were arguing.
There is no doubt that there are a few candidates who are always ranked at the top, but the closer to the edge, the greater the controversy. After the entire evaluation, Yuan Xiao circled thirty-three people on the list, but the number of people who can finally enter the debut group must be controlled within thirty according to the subsequent recording plan. Therefore, some people think that some trainees on the list can be replaced, while others think that some trainees deserve to be on this list.
Yuan Xiao was indeed confused about some of the trainees on the list, thinking that she still couldn't understand the situation as well as the staff she worked with day and night, and she couldn't get some opinions from the professional teachers.
But after listening to it all, it was nothing more than subjective scoring items like who danced better, who had more powerful vocals, etc. Gu Yuchen didn't say much, and neither did Yuan Xiao. The only reason they could work together smoothly was because they had the same aesthetic taste, and they liked similar candidates, so it could be said that they were of no help at all.
The electronic pen in her hand turned rapidly, her eyes lowered, and suddenly she drew a long horizontal line on the circled names.
“No one’s going in.”
Her voice was very soft, but no one could ignore it. The practice room fell silent, and everyone was waiting for Yuan Xiao's final decision.
Yuan Xiao always makes decisions quickly. After making up his mind, he immediately came up with a plan: "The debut group has a heavy task. The variety show they are going to record next will be the first shot we have to fire for this boy group. So all the candidates we have discussed and hesitated about, including those on the list and those not on the list, will be contacted by the selection and management team for a separate chat in the next few days. None of them will be included in the debut group. However, they can retain the treatment of trainees and train with the next batch of trainees we will continue to absorb until they can re-take the assessment when the boy group is formed next time. The time period will be longer. Talk to them and they can stay or leave as they wish."
"So there are 25 people left on the list, which happens to be our first debut group."
The bell rang, and the trainees filed in from the door, lined up in front of Yuan Xiao, and waited for the final result with trepidation.
Yuan Xiao stood up, looked around, and held a list in his hand, just a few lines.
Among the group of trainees in front of her, these young children, some came with dreams, and some just wanted to escape the difficulties of reality, but the purpose is not the most important thing. Those who persevere to the end will be rewarded with supreme glory.
"Next, we will announce the debut group."
"Yan Fan."
The long-haired boy standing at the front raised his head, with an unsurprising determination in his eyes.
"Yu Le."
The nervous boy was the second one whose name was called. He looked up at Yuan Xiao in surprise. The chief producer didn't look at him, but Gu Yuchen, who was standing next to her, noticed his gaze and smiled at him gently.
Yan Fan turned around and winked at him quietly, saying that the kid didn't need to worry about anything, he was working so hard and everyone could see it.
"Su Chen, Avery, Pei Zijin, Jiang Tong...Jin Zeyu."
After Yuan Xiao finished announcing the last name, he put down the tablet and said the last sentence cruelly, "The above is the full list of people entering the debut group this time."
It was also the first time for her to face such a scene. There were eighty-eight people, all of them teenagers in their teens. When the end was announced, many pairs of eyes became a little dazed, and then the lights went out one after another, and gradually tears welled up.
Yuan Xiao tightened his fingers around the tablet, not knowing for a moment how to say anything comforting.
Someone cried out, "Can I, can I dance one more time?"
Then more voices spoke up boldly: "Yes, Sister Xiaoxiao, can you take another look, just for a moment?"
"Give us another chance..."
Suddenly someone touched her sleeve gently. Yuan Xiao lowered her head and met Gu Yuchen's inquiring eyes: Can I come?
She took a deep breath and calmed herself down. She would have to face it all by herself in the end. "No, it's okay."
Yuan Xiao raised his voice and said, "Okay, be quiet."
"For the trainees who didn't make the debut list this time, your selection supervisor will talk to you individually later. For those who are not interested in this, we will pay you all your internship wages. If you are a college student who needs an internship certificate, the HR department will apply for an official seal. For some trainees, after evaluation, we believe that their strength is not enough to enter the debut group now. If they are willing to stay, they can continue to practice in Yuanxin and participate in our next debut assessment. If they don't want to stay, we won't force them."
"But this doesn't prove that you're not good, nor does it prove that you're completely unsuitable to be an idol." Yuan Xiao said this very seriously, not just to comfort her. "It's just that through our comprehensive cognition and evaluation, you can't meet the standards for debuting at the moment, that's all."
"You've worked hard for the past three months. Take a good rest today. Trainees who have made the debut group list will gather here after the physical training at nine o'clock tomorrow morning. Now, you can disband."
Yuan Xiao put away the information in front of him, led the staff in the room out of the practice room, hardened his heart and left the faint crying sounds in the room behind. Sorry, they are an entertainment company after all, not a charity foundation.
There are still many things to do in the afternoon. I have to deal with the dismissed trainees and also start some preliminary preparations for the recording of the debut variety show.
-
For the trainees preparing for their debut, the afternoon is a rare period of free time. In the empty practice room on the 14th floor, someone cautiously opened the door, but was stunned.
At this moment, most of the trainees were staying upstairs. Some were called in for a talk, some were packing their bags in the dormitory, and some were crying. Jiang Tong didn't know why they were crying about something that had been decided long ago, and he didn't want to show that he was not sociable. In addition, he was used to training every day and felt uncomfortable without training for a day, so he sneaked back to the 14th floor, but found someone in the room.
This is a relatively remote practice room, filled with musical instruments and with sponges covering the walls. Usually, only a few trainees who have reached the standard in music theory and want to learn composition from Teacher Gu come here, namely Jiang Tong, Pei Zijin, and Jin Zeyu. For fear of being affected, the room is located in a relatively remote position.
It’s Jin Zeyu.
He was leaning on the windowsill, holding something in his mouth and squinting his eyes lazily. The sunlight from the west poured in, giving his silhouette a golden edge, making him inexplicably handsome.
Jiang Tong: ...
Dude, you are a bit pretentious.
