Chapter 90

As soon as the topic was brought up to Jiang Juyou, she would suddenly cut off contact with the outside world and pretend to be dead.

This time, she also refused to communicate with Cong Lixia, directly closed the dialogue box, packed up her clothes to change and went to take a shower.

Only the reading light at the bedside was left in the room, and the warm light, like the yellow autumn leaves, illuminated the room. After taking a shower, Jiang Juyou’s first thing was not to blow dry her hair or apply skin care products, but to pick up her phone to call her assistant. The

assistant downstairs had just hung a tissue on her collar and was ready to eat a midnight snack, but just when she was about to take the first bite, the phone placed next to the table suddenly rang.

This unique ringtone was specially set by her for Jiang Juyu——

"Please, don't ask me to go out and buy anything!" After making this prayer, the assistant answered the phone, "Hello, Jiang Zhi."

Jiang Juyu said on the other end: "Help me book a flight for tomorrow at noon, we'll go back."

"Okay." The assistant glanced at the suitcase she had just opened, which contained several beautiful skirts. She retracted her gaze and forced a smile and continued to ask, "Is there anything else you want me to do?"

"I'll rush to the company as soon as I get off the plane and call people from all departments to a meeting. Everyone in the new employee development department will be invited."

"Understood."

After the phone was hung up, the assistant secretly said that it was not good. She felt that the fuse had been ignited, and the meeting tomorrow afternoon would be the moment of explosion.

The midnight snacks on the table were not so attractive. When she thought about the possibility of having her bonus deducted, she quickly reviewed whether she had done anything wrong recently. She didn't want to touch this mold before the New Year.

"I have a meeting this afternoon."

"Today is Saturday."

"...What's going on?"

In the entertainment industry, there is basically no such thing as 9 to 5 and two days off. 99% of the jobs are flexible working hours, but in casual entertainment, basically all employees work from 10 to 6 and have two days off. Unless the trainees need to work on weekends for performances, they don't have to work the rest of the time. No

matter how big the matter is, you have to wait until Monday to go to work.

But last night, there was a temporary notice on the internal APP, requiring the senior management of each department and all the people in the new talent development department to arrive at the company at 4 pm on Saturday to prepare for the meeting.

Such a sudden notice must have happened.

Everyone was guessing, even estimating before going to bed, until Saturday afternoon at four o'clock, they knew the content of the meeting.

Although there was overtime pay, they were forced to work overtime, so they came reluctantly. Some who came early sat at their workstations, planning to go in at four o'clock, some came in at the right time, and some thought that Jiang Zhi could not come so early, so they were late.

But when they arrived, they found that Jiang Zhi had already sat at his seat.

"..."

The latecomers were from the new employee development department. They bowed apologetically and then quickly went to their group's location.

Liu Jiajia looked back and showed displeasure on her face.

The conference room is large and is usually used for interns' end-of-month evaluations. It is similar to a staircase theater with many modular seats. The staff sit at their seats, and some even pull out small tables with iPads and pens, pretending to take notes at the meeting.

Jiang Juyou was standing in the open space in front, wearing a very thin smoky gray knitted sweater, which made her skinny look more obvious. The straight jeans were loose on her, and the thick high-heeled boots on her feet made her look more aggressive, making her look more difficult to deal with than before.

"Have you read the major error notice issued yesterday?" Jiang Juyou stood in front with her arms folded, and scanned the area while speaking.

The sparse reactions from the audience were just as Jiang Juyu thought, "Do you know what happened in Thailand?"

After she asked, she heard someone answer in a low voice, "...illegitimate child?"

Jiang Juyu chuckled, "How did you know?"

"Yesterday I told the people in groups 1, 2, and 3 that the news was not allowed to be leaked, and people in the same department were not allowed to tell it. How did you know?"

As she spoke, she took out her cell phone and sent the link to the meeting group that had just been opened on the intranet software. "I'm just curious, how can the trivial things in our company be leaked, and outsiders know everything that happened."

"Didn't the HR tell you when you joined the company?" She looked at the people in the administrative department, "Didn't you tell them that our company has a confidentiality agreement?"

"These were all discussed one-on-one to ensure that they knew about the confidentiality agreement." The person who was called answered Jiang Juyu. This

involves the privacy of artists that the public is most curious about, so the industry takes confidentiality very seriously. From small crew projects to big collaborations, all participants have to sign an agreement, but even so, it cannot be kept secret, and there are always people who want to leak some news.

This mentality is the same as those who compete to be the leader of the fan circle, and they all want to be sought after.

Jiang Juyou has long known that the company's news is easy to leak, but other companies are the same, but random entertainment is in the limelight, and the outside world is more curious. A little bit of news can spread very widely, while some companies want to leak a little news and no one cares.

This is a normal phenomenon. As long as it does not involve commercial secrets, she doesn't care much. This time it is not related to commercial secrets, but the tone and emotion of the leaked news have changed.

She put her phone back in her pocket, looked ahead and said, "You are people who work in this circle and in casual entertainment. If you have the same ideas as those people outside, that artists are troublesome, that they shouldn't make so much money, and that it's not worth working for them, HR is right next to you, you can go find her after the meeting is over."

Many of those posts were hateful comments about artists and companies.

Chen Xi was implicated because of a male artist's malicious CP hype before, and the matter that should have been put to an end became endless because of the male artist's fans.

Jiang Juyou was here to deal with the trainees encountering illegitimate children, and Cheng Yuan was there to deal with Chen Xi receiving malicious express delivery from the male artist's fans.

But in the eyes of the employees, their affairs affect their work, or they just don't care about it, leak the matter to the outside, and enjoy the attention.

Even the company is the same. They used to live without the concept of day and night, but suddenly they switched to random entertainment and felt the beauty of normal people going to work and going home. After adapting for a while, they felt that it was not enough, and they felt that the overtime pay was too little and the working hours were too long.

Some people just live a retirement life. After arriving at the company at 10 o'clock, they have breakfast, drink coffee, put on makeup, and rest for a while. It's almost 12 o'clock, and it's time for lunch. After lunch, they have to take a nap. When they really start working, it's already 2 o'clock in the afternoon. In the end, they don't do anything and it's time to get off work at 6 o'clock.

If they really work in that afternoon, Jiang Juyou won't say anything. She asked the system to check and found that most people were surfing the Internet at that time.

The waves that come out are the waves that hit random entertainment, trainees, and artists.

"You know that you and your colleagues are all in the same boat, but why don't you think that artists are also your colleagues? People outside don't understand the content of artists' work, and don't know what they will go through. You don't know either?"

Jiang Juyou was so angry at her next sentence. She read all the posts last night, and she never thought that the title was given by someone in her own company.

She asked -

"Take the lead in shouting that the trainees can expect to make 2.08 million?"

Some people in the audience raised their eyebrows in shock. They didn't expect that there would be such a person in the company.

"What good will it do you to destroy them?"

"Will it make you feel better if they are scolded?"

"Does mocking fans who chase stars make you look sober?"

Jiang Juyu shook his head and spread his hands, saying, "Random Entertainment doesn't need such people."

"Artists are our works. The parts of artists that are judged by the public are our mistakes in our work, and the parts that are praised are the highlights of our work."

"Random Entertainment will not sign contracts to cultivate artists with poor character, and will always stand on the side of its staff."

"Artists are above us?"

Jiang Juyu raised his chin and said lightly, "No, we are the ones who are above."

"I hope everyone will cherish and treat your work with love. After all, if your work is valuable, your wallet will become fatter." After Jiang Juyu finished speaking, he glanced at the time.

The meeting lasted only more than twenty minutes. Jiang Juyu checked the time, put away her phone and said, "The meeting is over. Thank you for your trip. I hope we can cherish each other's rest time in the future. I don't want to increase your workload, and you don't have to increase my workload. I flew back from Bangkok just to discuss confidentiality clauses."

"As for the employees who violated the confidentiality agreement, we will deal with them one by one, and the results will be announced on Monday. Everyone should go back and tell your employees about the content of today's meeting."

She looked at the human resources director and said to her, "Sister Ren Ai, prepare the recruitment information. You may be very busy next week."

"Okay."

The meeting lasted more than twenty minutes, and people's backs felt cold and the hair on their arms stood up. Everyone hurriedly recalled whether they had made any remarks on the Internet that they should not have said.

Liu Jiajia had a gloomy face the whole time. Jiang Juyu called all the staff of the new talent development department but didn't mention it. Even a fool could figure out that this was to give her some face.

In addition to the A&R department, which is very large in the company, there is their new talent development department. They have more than a hundred trainees to manage, and they are also responsible for course arrangements and assessments, and even their daily lives have to be supervised. Therefore, there are many employees and the competition is fierce.

Liu Jiajia has been busy cooperating with Yang Siyu to select new girl group members and organize a female version of the talent show recently, but she was suddenly stabbed in the back.

"..."

She lowered her head and took out her mobile phone from her pocket, and sent a message to the new talent development department group, asking everyone to stay and continue the meeting.

This time it was no longer someone who leaked the news, but netizens discovered that Random Entertainment had begun large-scale recruitment, but everyone guessed that they were preparing for future expansion.

Of course, there were also some rumors circulating in the circle, but no one dared to say it.

After returning from Bangkok, Jiang Juyou did not go out again. She probably couldn't watch the concert. She arranged some other things later, and this thing was that Chen Xi was harassed by black fans.

Jiang Juyou often went to Chen Xi's house with Sister Cheng Yuan these days to help her clean up the house.

Chen Xi was given a box of cockroaches by black fans. When she opened the package, she didn't think much about it because there were too many express deliveries at home. She had already forgotten how many things she bought.

When the knife tip just opened a little, she felt something was wrong. When the tape was cut, the things inside crawled out.

"Her mental state has been really bad recently..."

The two were still waiting for the elevator. While waiting, Cheng Yuan told Jiang Jueyou about Chen Xi's situation in the past few days, and said, "The crew doesn't wait for anyone. She can't join the crew in her current state. I looked at Jiang Tang's schedule and she can go."

Jiang Jueyou raised her eyes after hearing this, "Do you think she can hold on?"

"With the premise of the program, she still has a certain degree of recognition. At least young children know her, and her acting skills are not bad." This is how Cheng Yuan evaluated Jiang Tang.

The two people said that this project was just for their own entertainment. The screenwriter who signed the contract last year came in with a script. At that time, this project was decided, and preparations have been made since then. Jiang Tang even participated in last year's casting, but did not get the female lead, but the third female lead.

Jiang Juyou knew that her sister had been memorizing lines at home every day during this period. Basically, she memorized all the lines and even lost a lot for the role.

There is another actress in the company, Zhai Ke'er, but Zhai Ke'er is developing in the film industry. This year's work is already full, and she is still in the crew. She hopes that Jiang Tang can play the female lead, but she can't take such a big project to gamble.

Jiang Juyou hesitated for a moment, "Sister Cheng Yuan, I think we should find other actresses from outside, or wait and see how Sister Chen Xi recovers in the next two weeks. If it still doesn't work, we can replace her with someone else."

"Okay... the elevator is here, let's go in."

This is how she spent the time before the New Year. She basically went to Chen Xi's house every day, but Chen Xi's condition did not get better, but got worse.

All the work that could be canceled later was canceled, and the company paid a large amount of breach of contract for it. Cheng Yuan was busy with other projects in the film and television department and could not come, so Jiang Juyou and Chen Xi's assistant had to accompany her every day. Obviously, they

went to counsel her, but in the end, the three of them would cry together.

The heroine of that ancient idol drama was also changed to Jiang Tang. After Chen Xi's fans found out, they made a fuss under the comments of Random Entertainment and Jiang Tang.

She was almost depressed after staying in the film and television department, so she was particularly kind to the trainees who came back from the tour, especially those with lively personalities, like little golden retrievers, who instantly swept away the heaviness on Jiang Juyou.

After the tour ended, the trainees were given a week to do final practice, followed by the final performance, and Jiang Juyou was probably the only one who was looking forward to that day.

“Title: I can’t accept it. It’s going to be the finale next week…”

“Who understands, my family? I’ve been following it since the first episode of the first season, which spanned a year and a half. It’s the first time in my life that I’ve followed a talent show for such a long time. Not only have I followed it, I’ve become addicted to it. I can’t give up any of these 21.”

“Can’t they debut directly like this? There are exactly three groups. In the future, they will fight to the death among the three groups. They don’t need any other opponents. They can just absorb all the fans of domestic entertainment.”

“Ahhhhhhh I don’t want it to end!”

Comments:

“I understand…”

“Really, it feels like the fans of their three groups have taken up half of domestic entertainment.”

“Composition of domestic entertainment: actor fans and random entertainment fans”

“I can’t accept it either. Please, please release the announcement of the 21 to 7 soon.”

"They are conducting the final closed training. I want to cry when I see these last two words."

"It's really hard to say. Now each group basically gets one point. It all depends on how the hangover cure is chosen in the final performance."

"The draw is the most torturous now, because it's impossible to guess what Jiang Juyou is thinking."

"I hope Jiang Juyou will choose the West group because Xibazuma contributed 200 million yuan to the pop-up store."

"Now when I think about the fact that I not only have to choose one out of three, but also have to choose five out of seven... I want to die."

No matter how reluctant they are, the final performance is still here.

The publicity campaign started a month in advance. Random Entertainment even opened up support applications. Those who passed the application could start a group on Gailexi's fan page to raise funds. The money would not go through the hands of the fan club, but would be directly transferred from Random Entertainment to the GG dealer.

In other words, starting a month ago, all kinds of support from the trainees could be seen on the streets, with GG big screens and fluttering flags. All the available seats were occupied by them.

It was like a carnival before leaving.

The trainees in the campus could also feel the atmosphere. In order to prevent the atmosphere from being too sad, everyone was actively mobilizing emotions. The most obvious manifestation was that Pei Luming was more arrogant than before.

Gao Xiayu changed from raising a dog to raising a monkey. Pei Luming wanted to climb on his brothers' heads to catch lice every day. He either hung on Gao Xiayu or stuck on Chen Wu's back, showing "the age of sticking to each other" to the extreme.

Gao Xiayu in the practice room clapped his hands and called the members who were resting, "Let's practice one last time and then go to eat. Dance well. Everyone can leave after dancing well."

They just lay down to rest for two minutes. Pei Luming deeply suspected that Gao Xiayu just didn't like him disturbing people at night, so he wanted to use up his energy during the day.

The practice room next door was even more cruel. No one even ate lunch. The captain was giving the members the final ultimatum.

"We haven't been to school for a year, and even the military training has been moved to September this year with the next class, so we must debut. Grit our teeth and persevere, it will be over soon, don't let yourself down, and don't regret it."

Like going to the battlefield, everyone has the final determination.

Because no one knows what the final result will be, and they don't know where to retreat. They are likely to be disbanded or even terminated. If they are lucky, they will be signed by other companies, but if they are unlucky, they can only be amateurs.

The devil training has been going on for two years, and the strength of all trainees has reached the standard for debut, or even far exceeded that standard. No one wants to be the eliminated one.

It is not the result they want.

On the day of the finale live broadcast, the hot searches were very lively early in the morning. All the marketing accounts were out, trying to get a glimpse of their rehearsal results from a high place, but they didn't see anything. Even so, the finale was still on the hot searches.

There were more than a dozen trucks parked in the parking lot, all of which were stage equipment for the finale. The design and layout of the stage were also secretly photographed and became popular on the hot searches one by one.

Random Entertainment is the conspicuous bag in the entertainment industry today, and it is everywhere.

Fans lined up outside to buy peripherals all morning. Other domestic fans waved flags and paraded around to support them, but there was none here, because if they went there, they would not be able to buy peripherals.

The line was not satisfied with just going around the venue, but also stretched directly to the street outside. There were even figures queuing on the overpass in the distance.

"Title: Are all you domestic fans going to Hangzhou today?"

"[Picture][Picture][Picture]"

"This line is really scary. Standing on the street side of the venue, you can't see the end. Some people at the scene said that the line has stretched to the underpass."

"It means that whoever doesn't want Sang Mo's down jacket peripherals, sell them to me."

Comment area:

"All domestic fans from the Internet gathered in Hangzhou."

"This line must be at least a few thousand people, right?"

"How many thousands? There are 80,000 tickets. Do you think this line is a few thousand?"

"No matter how beautiful the peripherals are, they are not worth queuing for such a long time."

"Then how many tens of thousands of dollars can you make after queuing? The peripheral products sold during the week of the finale are also sold online, but those sold offline will give away small cards based on the amount of purchase, and SSR cards will be given away randomly. Every fan knows that sjyl's small cards are expensive. Do you think all of them are sjyl's fans? Most of them are scalpers and purchasing agents."

"They started queuing since yesterday, which is really awesome..."

"The people in the room should keep their mouths shut. It's none of your business if the star-chasing girls want to queue up."

"It's so lively, I regret refunding my ticket..."

After a day of excitement and bustle, fans began to enter the venue at four in the afternoon, and the queue outside to buy peripheral products did not decrease at all.

In addition to fans, there were also invited media. The walls of the stands were covered with brand logos. There were four sponsors, including car companies, daily chemicals, snack brands, and fast food brands.

After the fans came in, they didn't care about the quality of the products. They just wanted to find their seats quickly. The venue was too big and it took a long time to walk. In addition, it was open-air, so it was freezing cold when the wind blew.

Liu Yue and Jiang Liuxing came together again. Jiang Liuxing gave the media seats to employees, and Liu Yue didn't need a box because she was allowed to take photos this time.

The random entertainment was so open that the fans couldn't adapt for a while. The feeling of "the last meeting" became stronger and stronger. They wanted to cry before they did anything in their seats.

"Hey! There are blankets!" Jiang Liuxing was surprised. She looked around and saw that thick blankets were placed in all positions, one green and one white, with a baby warmer underneath for fans to use.

Liu Yue frowned, "It's a bit hard to adapt to being so nice to fans all of a sudden..."

It was a bad premonition to be precise. She sighed, "I would rather she treat me worse and let me debut."

As soon as Liu Yue said this, the fans who heard it around immediately began to pray.

"Please, you must let me debut!"

--------------------

Jiang Juyu: I'll try my best.

Ha! The next chapter is the finale! I'm finally going to finish writing the show selection! Guess who it is! Let

me say first, not all those with more roles will debut.
