Chapter 18

Jiang Juyou has never had any luck since she was a child, which has caused her to think of everything in the worst direction.

But all this changed when the system appeared. She did not reach the end of her life. Her life even gradually got better. She felt that everything had hope.

At the meeting before the preliminary inspection, many staff members were talking about the progress of the trainees, and they specially pointed out several trainees who had made great progress. This made Jiang Juyou look forward to it. She even felt that God was actually favoring her before entering the door, but it was just a little late.

But after watching the preliminary performance, Jiang Juyou's expression was worse than ever.

"…"

Other staff members and teachers who were also sitting on the sofa would give a word or two of comments and encouragement to the trainees after they finished their performances. For trainees with outstanding performances, they would even look at Jiang Jueyou, hoping that she could say a few words, but Jiang Jueyou always had a blank expression on her face, waved her hands and said she would wait.

Now that the performances of the ten trainees were over, everyone in the venue focused their attention on Jiang Jueyou. Not only did the trainees have to accept comments, but even the teachers and staff had to face Jiang Jueyou's feedback.

She had a cold face, and anyone could tell she looked dissatisfied, but the trainees at the scene crowded together and looked at each other, not knowing what she was dissatisfied with, as everyone's performance was obviously much better than during practice.

Jiang Juyu let out a long sigh amid the expectations of thousands of people. She raised her head and glanced at the trainees, "...We had a meeting before coming here, and the teachers introduced you to me and talked about what it was like when you first started the class."

"To be honest, the teachers' comments were all very good, and I was quite looking forward to it, so I was in a good mood before the performance started..."

"Now that the performance is over, what do you think?"

She returned the question to them and examined their expressions again. Now the interns' expressions were no longer as complacent as when the performance had just ended.

"I won't talk about how your solo performances were today, I'll just talk about the gap between you. The earliest batch has been practicing for more than a month, and the latest has been practicing for a week, but I can't see the difference at all. It feels like you all suddenly received the notice yesterday and hurriedly prepared for the stage - it's all bad."

"Maybe some of you think that you came in with a foundation and are much better than others, but in my opinion, the gap between you is zero to one and one to one point, and you are still far from graduating with 100 points."

"Yao Shuo has the best vocal strength, but I can't see the difference between your stage and others. Chi Qiao's dance performance seemed to be for your own pleasure. You were the only one who was excited. And when you were dancing just now, you noticed that we had no expression and our movements were a bit flustered. Is this the stage you should present at your level?"

"Just now in the meeting, an employee told me that Gao Xiayu has the best overall ability. Do you know what's scary about this statement?" She looked into Gao Xiayu's eyes. Now Gao Xiayu no longer has the fearlessness he had when he first entered the company. He put his hands behind his back, and after meeting the producer's gaze, he subconsciously lowered his eyes, then shook his head and said, "...I don't know."

Jiang Juyu looked at him and slowed down his tone, "The scary thing about this statement is that your vocal is not as good as Yao Shuo's, and your dancing is not as good as Chi Qiao's. You have no highlights and can be replaced at any time." "

..."

The practice room was so quiet that even the sound of breathing could be heard. The children standing in a row didn't even dare to breathe, for fear that they would be targeted in the next second.

"The debut album has already started production, and a few songs have been chosen. The exact number of people who will debut has not yet been decided, but it will not exceed seven, and some of you will definitely be eliminated."

"And what you have to do is not only to have the ability, but also to be irreplaceable."

She looked determined and said loudly, "Become that group that cannot be without you, then you will have a chance to debut."

Jiang Juyou finally sighed and said, "Everyone performed very poorly today, but fortunately there are still two weeks left, so we will continue to prepare... The people I didn't mention are not because there was no problem with your stage performance, but because you didn't leave an impression on me at all, so I was too lazy to even comment on them."

"Today, I am the only one who comes here. In two weeks, people from the departments above will come down to watch the end-of-month evaluation. It will not only be the company's employees, but also passers-by who don't know you at all."

"The evaluation you receive by then will not be as gentle as today."

The trainees lowered their heads and pursed their lips.

After she finished speaking, she packed up her things and prepared to get up. Not only the trainees looked frustrated, but even the staff and teachers looked unhappy.

Jiang Juyou stood up and said to the staff around her, "Let's go to the conference room."

When she said this, everyone's heart skipped a beat. It's

over. It's their turn to be scolded.

When Jiang Juyou sent a message to her sister, she had just finished a meeting with the company staff. Compared to what she said to the trainees, her words to the staff were much softer.

"I know you are raising them like your own children, but you can't be too kind to them. Your indulgence will prevent them from growing. Look at Gao Xiayu, he has been here for more than a month, has he grown at all?" "

There are also vocal lessons. I hope to teach them according to their voice characteristics... Then this month, we will add a new Rap course. Let the children go first, and finally select a few suitable ones to stay."

"As for dancing, practice hard until you develop a sense of dance. The biggest problem is Chi Qiao. He has prepared a pure dance stage for his solo. The stage is so big, how can he fill it up by himself?"

"As for the stage, the children's performance is too stiff, as if they were forced to perform on stage. The key is to let them learn to enjoy the stage."

Just as Jiang Juyou said just now, their current level is hovering around 0, 1, and 2, not even over 3, let alone 100 points, so facing her sister's question, Jiang Juyou didn't know where to start.

After leaving the conference room, she went upstairs to her office. When she passed by the big office, she found that those who were supposed to be taking a nap were all holding their mobile phones. Without thinking, she knew that they were probably discussing what she had just said downstairs.

After returning to the office, Jiang Juyou replied to Jiang Liuxing.

"Jieyou Grocery Store: They have just started practicing, don't expect too much."

"Liuxing is Ziweixing: Got it."

Jiang Liuxing, who had been keeping his head down, raised his head and said to several friends: "They have only started practicing for a month, don't expect too much."

"Got it!"

"The cultivation department! I like it!"

"Ye Xing's face has already guaranteed his debut position."

"Someone in my circle of friends also said that she wants to go, her family is from Beijing."

Jiang Liuxing waved his hand for his sister, "Come on, come on, as many as you want!"

Several people sat there holding their phones and typing, and the number of people who came was more than the number of people that Jiang Juyou had promoted on Weibo for weeks. They were really excited and didn't even consider how many people could enter.

It was only when Jiang Liuxing counted the number of people that his mind cleared up.

"Wait, I forgot to ask how many people could enter."

Two weeks later, on the day of the end-of-month evaluation.

The temperature had been climbing for a while, and the high temperature record that had not been broken for 50 years was refreshed back and forth in those two days. But this week, it was like a sudden return to spring, and it rained for a week.

Today was a rare cloudy day. The blue sky was covered by white clouds that came out for an outing, and the sun was hiding behind the clouds. The temperature was not going to rise.

But this kind of weather is good weather that everyone likes.

After Jiang Liuxing left, she checked with her sister.

"Liuxing is Ziweixing: We are sure that more than 40 people can all get in, right?"

Maybe they were busy over there, and no one replied after more than ten minutes. She flipped through the messages and found a few weeks ago.

"Liuxing is Ziweixing: I forgot to ask how many people can get in, so that we don't have room when we arrive."

"Jieyou Grocery Store: As many as you come."

"Liuxing is Ziweixing: Are you sure?"

"Jieyou Grocery Store: You will know when you come."

The performance time of the end-of-month evaluation was in the afternoon, but Jiang Liuxing got up early, thinking of going over to help. As

soon as she got on the subway, there was a movement in the family group.

"Jiang Tang will be famous next year: What a pity, I want to go too."

"Jiang Tang will be famous next year: There hasn't been a schedule for 800 years, and suddenly there is one, and it's stuck at this time, it's really annoying!"

"Jiang Tang will be famous next year: It's a free performance! Free!"

Jiang Liuxing turned off her phone speechlessly after watching it.

There are three sisters in her family, and their stinginess is the same as their age order. Her eldest sister takes the empty mineral water bottles home to sell, and Jiang Tang is even so sick that she will feel heartbroken if she misses a free item that has nothing to do with her.

The second sister Jiang Juyou is not so exaggerated, but she is also a person who will never consume useless things. From head to toe, from home to outside, it is all minimalist.

Jiang Liuxing is the only spendthrift in the family.

She ignored her sister, mainly because she was afraid that she would be pestered by her later.

After getting off the subway, Jiang Liuxing followed the navigation and walked slowly towards the destination. During the walk, she sent a message to Jiang Juyou, saying that she would be there soon and could help.

Jiang Liuxing raised her eyebrows when she heard that the destination was still 200 meters away, "... It's quite close to the subway exit."

She was about to exaggerate the financial strength of this company when her eyes met those of two buildings surrounded by green nets.

At the same time, the headset also reminded her that she had arrived at the destination.

"..."

Jiang Juyu, who received the message from her sister, just came out. She waved and said, "Here!"

Jiang Juyu stood inside the gate and shouted to Jiang Liuxing who was still on the side of the road, "Enter from here!"

Jiang Liuxing then turned her gaze to her sister, "...Sister, are you holding a performance in a place like this?"

It was obvious that the two buildings were not completed yet. The conditions were too poor. The exterior facades had not been cleaned up, which gave people a very bad impression.

Jiang Juyu looked over and choked. She explained, "...Those two buildings also belong to our company. They have been completed. It is mainly to prevent people from getting in."

"That's not bad..." Jiang Liuxing sighed after she finished speaking, "Your company is very rich."

"Haha..." Jiang Juyu didn't dare to answer.

When her sister came closer, Jiang Juyou also came out of the gate. Jiang Liuxing was about to raise his hands to hug her sister, but was stopped by Jiang Juyou, "Wait - download a software first!"

Jiang Liuxing's sight was blocked, and his attention was on his sister's mobile phone. He didn't notice the appearance of the square inside.

"What software?"

"Our venue's software, you need to scan the code to enter."

Jiang Juyou: I'll take as many as I can.
