Chapter 28: Fire
I have to say that Wen Yu is a very good negotiator.
He knew that what the director cared about most was "popularity" and "traffic", so he offered to bring ten "F" trainees to win first place in exchange.
If he wins, the second issue will definitely be a hit.
If he loses, the production team will not lose anything because he will continue to stay and record the rest of the show.
The director was persuaded by Wen Yu.
He agreed to the deal proposed by Wen Yu and signed the contract with Wen Yu on the spot.
…
That's what happened.
This is also why Wen Yu chose the contestant rated "F" instead of choosing one from among so many contestants rated "B", "C", "D", and "E".
It's not because he has a personal relationship with these people, but because it was a bet between him and the director.
If he wins the bet, he can successfully terminate his contract with the program team.
If he loses the bet, he will stay until the last period.
After seeing the team members chosen by Wen Yu, everyone felt that this was an impossible task, and the director was no exception, so he agreed to Wen Yu's request.
…
Wen Yu's selection of ten trainees rated "F" indeed caused an uproar on Weibo.
"Pick Me" has received a lot of attention recently, and the entry #温玉与十个"F"练生组队# has unsurprisingly become a hot search on Weibo.
The recording of "Pick Me" is still going on.
After the selection is completed, it is time to draw the song.
The director had the staff bring a box and explained to the trainees present, "There are eight songs in the box. These eight songs are all from your mentors. You will become the student of the mentor whose song you draw."
The mentors for the second season of "Pick Me" are still the same as those for the first season, including Song Shinian, Jiang Xue and Gu Yang.
Song Shinian and Jiang Xue are singers, and there are three of their songs in the box respectively. Gu Yang is a street dancer, and he has released fewer songs, so there are only two in the box.
[Song Shinian!!! Are we meeting again?!]
I envy them so much for being Song Shinian's students.
[Envy? You don't know how strict Song Shinian is, do you? Getting up at five or six in the morning to practice songs is common, and staying up late into the night to practice is also common...]
[Is this true? You're not lying to me, are you?]
[Why would I lie to you? Song Shinian used to train trainees from the same company. Those trainees started practicing at 5:00 AM and didn't go to bed until after midnight. Later, these trainees couldn't stand Song Shinian's devilish training, so they changed teachers...]
I remember this incident becoming a trending topic on Weibo. Many netizens were calling Song Shinian cold, cruel, and inhumane. His manager couldn't stand it anymore and revealed that this was Song Shinian's daily life. Only then did the netizens shut up.
[Yes! I became a fan of Song Shinian because of this incident. Others envy his early fame, but few people care about how much hardship he went through to get to where he is today.]
[A star who has reached Song Shinian's status must have put in a lot of effort that ordinary people don't know about.]
…
Today is the second day of Song Shinian's comeback, and netizens are still very excited when they hear this name again.
Under everyone's expectant gaze, Song Shinian, Gu Yang, and Jiang Xue slowly appeared in front of everyone.
The air outside is cold.
Jiang Xue wore a black base shirt with a white down jacket on the outside, looking gentle and elegant.
Yesterday's first stage was held indoors. In order to give the mentors and contestants a better experience, the production team kept the air conditioner on. Today, after moving outdoors, the clothes they wore became thicker.
Song Shinian was wearing a black jacket, and his handsome features were still as indifferent as ever.
Gu Yang was wearing a red coat, and the silver earrings on her earlobes sparkled in the sunlight.
Compared to yesterday, their outfits were much more casual.
"Hello everyone."
Jiang Xue was the first to greet the trainees: "I hope to be your mentor."
She said, winking at the trainee.
Ren Yi, the trainee closest to Jiang Xue, covered his chest cooperatively: "Teacher... you're going to make me faint..."
Jiang Xue was amused by Ren Yi's compliments: "Then you have to work hard to team up with me."
“Yes!”
Ren Yi saluted Jiang Xue.
The interaction between the two was seen by all netizens.
Ren Yi has a very good personality and is very supportive.
[Support, Ren Yi has a high emotional intelligence.]
I think Ren Yi's team has the best chance of winning right now. After all, there are only three contestants who received an "A" or "A-" in the first stage. Wen Yu and Lu Ran teaming up with ten "F" trainees has a much lower chance of winning. Naturally, Ren Yi's team has the highest chance of winning.
[I also think that Ren Yi's team is currently the strongest team in terms of overall strength...]
…
"Okay."
The director looked at the lively scene and spoke with a hint of smile: "Welcome to the three mentors. Captains, please step forward and draw lots."
Wen Yu was the first contestant to draw the lottery.
Under everyone's expectant gaze, he put his finger in and picked out one of the eight slips of paper.
Wen Yu lowered his eyes and slowly unfolded the note.
There are only two words on it - "spark".
This is one of Song Shinian's representative songs.
The content of "Spark" is very passionate and it is a very suitable song to be a group song.
However, the chorus of "Spark" requires the singer to have extremely strong explosive power so that he can sing out an uplifting momentum.
"Congratulations, Wen Yu, for becoming Song Shinian's student."
When they heard this, Wen Yu and Song Shinian were in a trance for a few seconds.
Wen Yu was thinking that he had been in the industry for so long, but he still had to recognize someone else as his teacher; Song Shinian was thinking about the two words "Wen Yu". He never thought that one day the names "Song Shinian" and "Wen Yu" would appear on a variety show at the same time.
"What are you still standing there for?"
The director looked at Wen Yu, who was motionless, and whispered, "Go and say hello to your teacher."
He said "quietly", but the director forgot that he was holding a loudspeaker in his hand, and everyone present heard what he said.
