Second performance preparation 5
Duan Mingfei closed his eyes and stopped talking.
Du Heng opened the social account in the passenger seat and used his connections to get the contact information of the program director or assistant director.
Not long after, someone sent Du Heng the contact information of the program's deputy director.
Du Heng and the assistant director packaged Duan Mingfei's words and sent them to the assistant director.
The assistant director of "Young Man Is Invincible" thought of Shi Buwen's like and found Shi Buwen immediately when he did not respond.
"Director Shi, take a look. This is a message from Duan Mingfei's agent Du Heng." The assistant director handed his cell phone to Shi Buwen.
Shi Buwen frowned, "What the hell? Trash wants to get involved and corrupt my lovely trainees. No way!"
As expected, the assistant director said, "I politely decline the offer."
"What do you mean by politely declining?" Shi Buwen tilted his head and stared at the assistant director sinisterly: "Of course I have to decline sharply with words, understand?"
Assistant Director: “…I understand.”
The assistant director typed a few words, sent them over, and then turned off his phone: "According to your meaning, it has been rejected."
Shi Buwen was not right but still confident: "Of course, don't get me wrong, I'm a fair and impartial person, I'm not that petty, I will never delay work because of personal grudges."
Assistant Director: “…”
He spoke so loudly that it sounded so real. If he had not seen with his own eyes the vengeful book of the Chuunibyou and the crazy likes on Duan Mingfei's blog post, he would have believed it.
"Director Shi, you said you're not the type to hold grudges." The assistant director was curious: "So, apart from some personal grudges, is there any other reason for rejecting Duan Mingfei from joining our production team?"
Shi Buwen: "Of course it's because of money."
Assistant Director: "Hmm? Du Heng said the price..."
Shi Buwen: "Don't even think about taking a dime from here, unless he pays for it!"
Is this...reasonable?
The assistant director held his forehead with his hand and said, "Director Shi, forgive me, I have never seen such a scene before."
Although Director Shi hates Duan Mingfei, Duan Mingfei, who debuted through a talent show and has now crossed over to the acting industry, is indeed very popular. Although he cannot be said to be a top star, he is also a first-line artist.
It is undeniable that Duan Mingfei is very popular, whether it is true or not, but at least on the surface, his fans are fanatical, so his appearance fee will naturally not be low, and many program crews are willing to invite him at a high price.
Duan Mingfei took the initiative to lower his price to join the production team of "Young Man Is Invincible". This was a huge concession on Duan Mingfei's part, and the assistant director still can't figure out why.
Paying money? It doesn't exist, it can't exist!
Could it be...the assistant director secretly glanced at Shi Buwen.
Did you know that the chief director of the program is Shi Buwen? Are you here on purpose to disgust the director?
But as far as he knew, when Director Shi participated in a boy group audition, he did not use the name 'Shi Buwen'.
The assistant director was bald and couldn't figure it out. He couldn't figure it out at all.
"You are still young." Shi Buwen stood up and patted the assistant director on the shoulder: "You will be able to see it later."
"Besides, collaborating on a stage with a lazy person is not a welfare stage at all. He doesn't care about anyone. After the second public performance, I want him to open his eyes wide and see what the real welfare for the trainees is."
The assistant director keenly smelled the scent of melon in there, and curiously inquired: "Ahem... Director Shi, can you..."
Shi Buwen: “No!”
"By the way, don't forget to block his agent. Don't worry, I'm here so you won't be out of work. Don't be afraid of offending them."
“…Okay.” The assistant director sighed, as it was hard to guess what his boss was thinking.
Although he is the assistant director, who could have imagined that every time he learned about the director's plan, he was only one or two hours earlier than the trainees!
But fortunately, Director Shi is really generous and has a good background!
Du Heng looked at the "inappropriate" reply in his hand and rubbed his eyes in disbelief.
Is he hallucinating?
Ever since he became Duan Mingfei's agent, he had never heard of such a situation, let alone seen it with his own eyes!
Du Heng thought that he did not explain himself clearly enough, or that his proactive price reduction made the other party think he was a liar and interrupted the call.
Thirty seconds later, Du Heng's face turned gloomy.
He was blocked on both WeChat and mobile phone.
"Brother Du, Brother Ming is calling you."
Hearing the assistant's voice, Du Heng put away his phone and turned to walk into the mall: "Yeah."
At least he couldn't tell Duan Mingfei the news until the event was over.
At 1:50 p.m., Chen Xiu looked at the revised lyrics on the paper and silently wrote two words at the top.
Madness
Only by doing everything you can break free and see the light.
Chen Xiu scanned the integrated and revised lyrics into the multimedia and projected them on the big screen.
After doing all this, Shen Xiu picked up the lunch box on the table and went back to the dormitory to wash it.
After the members of Chen Xiu's team finished their meal and took a nap, several of them tacitly agreed that they did not want to go into the practice room alone and face the cold and imposing Chen Xiu alone, so they agreed to go into the practice room together.
When they entered the practice room, they didn't see Shen Xiu, and their bodies relaxed unconsciously. The next moment, they saw the entire lyrics of the song after the revision on the big screen.
"Damn, it came out so soon!"
Everyone gathered in front of the big screen to study it carefully from beginning to end.
After reading it, Xia Wenhao said: "After Shen Xiu's integration and modification, the song has a more obvious sense of hierarchy."
Ke Zian: "The emotional communication is smoother and more natural."
Zhou Tong: "I was blown away when I saw the lyrics written by Wenhao. The lyrics written by Zi'an Jiafei and I were too smooth and I was worried that we wouldn't know how to blend them together. Now after the integration and revision by the repair team, it seems to be very suitable."
Yuan Jiafei: "Have you noticed that the lyrics are still the same overall, but the modification of some of them has elevated the overall framework and purpose of the song a lot? The team's literary skills are amazing."
Zhou Tong: "I understand it very well. Isn't this what our teacher said in school: 'Changing a single word is worth a thousand gold coins'?"
Ye Cheng: "Just watching this song makes my blood boil, as if something is about to burst out of my heart. What's going on?!"
Xia Wenhao's eyes fell on Zhao Mingwei and the other four people: "Whether you can live up to Shen Xiu's revision and improvement depends on you. Come on with the choreography!"
Ke Zian hurriedly comforted him: "Don't be too nervous, just do what you think in your heart. You see, when we wrote it this morning, we were not satisfied with it, but now that the revision team has changed it, it is completely different."
Zhou Tong also said: "We will try our best not to hinder the repair team."
Everyone knew that they were not on the same level as Shen Xiu, and it was really too much to ask of them to meet Shen Xiu's requirements.
Xia Wenhao: “Well, be brave, Shen Xiu is our backer, this is ridiculous, Shen Xiu will help us pull it back.”
Song Junying's face fell: "Even if you said that, I'm still so nervous!"
Gao Yongshi agreed deeply: "That's Shen Xiu. Even though we know that we have to hand over the semi-finished product to Shen Xiu, and that Shen Xiu will back us up and help us turn it into the final product, we still can't control our nervousness!"
Click...
When the door of the practice room opened, everyone froze and turned around subconsciously, and saw Shen Xiu's tall figure appear in front of the door, and spoke nervously.
"Captain Xiu, you're here."
"Good afternoon, Captain Xiu."
Shen Xiu thought that it took him some time to return the lunch box to the cafeteria, and he came back late, which led to such an embarrassing scene.
Looking at the expressions of the team members, it was obvious that they were not used to talking too much, just like him. For the sake of everyone and himself, Shen Xiu said, "Good afternoon, everyone."
After speaking hastily, Shen Xiu closed the door and stood a little further away. After he felt his breathing slow down, he looked at the team members and said, "If you have any opinions, please feel free to raise them."
Before Shen Xiu came, everyone had tasted it from beginning to end several times, and they all shook their heads when they heard this.
“No, no.”
"It has already been revised very well, and no further revision is needed."
Shen's revisions were flawless, and if any word is changed in this song, it will never be perfect again.
Chen Xiu breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the four people who needed to be busy in the afternoon: "Next, thank you for your hard work."
Gao Yongshi and the other three hurriedly shook their heads: "It's not hard, not hard."
Shen Xiu thought of the scene in the morning. Although he said that everyone could come to him if they had any questions, they never came to him once.
Obviously, the team members were just like him, afraid of looking for others and also afraid of being looked for by others.
Shen Xiu emphasized again: “If you have any problem, be sure to find me.”
When we work together, no matter how scared we are, we must try our best to overcome it.
"Yeah, yeah!" The four of them nodded repeatedly.
Fearing that both of them would feel uncomfortable, Shen Xiu said nothing more: “Let’s get started.”
The team members saw Shen Xiu return to the multimedia equipment table, put on noise-cancelling headphones, open his notebook, and draw something while thinking and lowering his head.
The team members looked at each other, because Shen Xiu wore noise-cancelling headphones, which worked very well. Although everyone was not afraid of being heard by Shen Xiu, they unconsciously lowered their voices.
"Does Captain Xiu know that he gets nervous when we see him, so he stops looking at us every time after arranging a task?"
"Is there any need to think about this? It must be like this."
"We thought we had concealed our discomfort in front of the boss perfectly, but who knew that the boss's Shen Xiu had already seen everything."
"And Chen Xiu never exposed us and pretended not to notice. He is very meticulous."
"Okay, let's get started. If we can't hand it over to the repair team in time this afternoon, they will probably have to stay up late to revise it again."
The team members exchanged a few words and immersed themselves in the intense choreography.
Although the division of labor is clear, everyone is a team, and N cobblers are better than Zhuge Liang. In the morning, Ke Zian and others did not dare to ask Chen Xiu, so they asked Song Junying and others to advise them.
The same thing happened to Song Junying and others when they were choreographing and composing music in the afternoon. If they were unsure, they would ask Xia Wenhao and the other four for advice.
At this moment, the people in the live broadcast room looked at the cat head on the big screen and doubted their lives.
[Help, what the hell is this blurred cat head on the big screen? I have seen people blur videos during editing, but this is the first time I have seen blur videos during live broadcasts. As expected, the quality of the show depends on the production team.]
So...now not only can we not hear what everyone is saying, we can't even see what's on the big screen, right? 】
[Damn it, the cat head is so cute, I can't bear to scold it. Not only can I not bear to scold it, but I am actually willing to do it just by looking at the cat head! 】
[I said that the production team didn't turn off the camera, there must be something fishy going on. It turns out that they were waiting here. The fishy thing has turned into a cat. All I can say is...6]
[It's like this, my broken heart needs a cat head to repair it! 】
The assistant director who completed this amazing operation saw that there were not many complaints from the audience and thought that he was too old after all and did not understand the thoughts of young people. The blurred cat head of Director Shi touched the hearts of the audience.
Who could have imagined this!
At 7pm, Song Junying and the other three finished their music and choreography and asked Shen Xiu to check them.
Shen Xiu closed his notebook, put on headphones and listened to Ye Cheng and Gao Yongshi's arrangement, and then watched Zhao Mingwei and Song Junying's choreography video.
No matter how many times they were in the same space with Shen Xiu, they still couldn't control their nervousness.
Especially when waiting for Shen Xiu's 'approval', the feeling of uneasiness reached its peak.
The feeling is exactly the same as when I was a student, waiting for the teacher to mark the test paper in class after a quiz. There is absolutely no difference.
During the anxious wait, Shen Xiu finally finished watching the music and choreography videos they recorded.
"Team Xiu, how is it?"
"If you have any questions, Captain Xiu, just tell us. We don't mind."
"Yes, we can bear it."
Zhao Mingwei and the other three waited anxiously for what Shen Xiu would say. Their ranking in the training assessment was not actually very good, at least not as high as Xia Wenhao, Ke Zian and the others.
Before Shen Xiu arranged things for them, they thought that they would not be "entrusted with important tasks" when they came to Shen Xiu's team, but things turned out to be beyond their expectations.
While they were happy, they were also under a lot of pressure.
I was afraid that I might not do well and let down Shen Xiu’s trust.
Shen Xiu: “…”
Don't be fooled by their usual enthusiasm and positivity...it's actually just a disguise. Their true attributes are the same as his.
So he was very lucky.
Shen Xiu didn't say anything after watching the video, just looked at them indifferently, which made Zhao Mingwei and the other three even more flustered.
Damn it, is there going to be a big problem?
Shen Xiu came back to his senses from his thoughts, silently organized his words in his heart, and then spoke seriously: "You did a good job, there are only some minor problems, leave it to me next."
Phew...scare them to death! I thought something big had gone wrong!
Regardless of whether what Chen Xiu said was true or false, the four of them couldn't help feeling happy in their hearts and showed relaxed expressions on their faces.
Shen Xiu glanced at his friends and said sincerely, "Everyone has worked hard today, let's go eat."
He felt embarrassed because someone was watching here.
"Gather here promptly at nine tomorrow morning."
Every time as a team leader, whether at school or here, Chen Xiu would emphasize the gathering time before the end, even though he didn't like to talk, for fear that he would fail to notify everyone one day and they wouldn't get up.
"Okay, team repair!"
"Team Xiu has worked hard!"
"See you, Team Xiu!"
Shen Xiu nodded: "Goodbye."
Soon, Shen Xiu was the only one left in the practice room. He looked at the closed door thoughtfully.
The program team did not give everyone much time to prepare for the second public performance. Each group started late, and the time of their own group's performance was probably the same, so there must be a lot of people eating now.
He has to go to the cafeteria at eight o'clock!
After confirming the meal time, Shen Xiu put on his headphones, opened his notebook, and started composing music again.
As Chen Xiu listened, he wrote down in his notebook what was lacking and needed to be supplemented, or which time period required the instrument to be changed in order to bring out the emotion of the entire song to its fullest.
[After the team members left, why did Captain Xiu stare at the door for a minute? Is there any deeper meaning? 】
[This is not difficult. Looking at Xiu Xiu's deep gaze and his calculating nature, his mind must be busy all the time. In that short one minute, Xiu Xiu must have been thinking about how to modify the music and choreography left by Zhao Mingwei and the others. 】
[Yes, as soon as I receive the 'homework', of course I have to correct it. Your analysis makes a lot of sense! 】
[Of course not, I have achieved full marks in my studies, and no one understands meditation better than me! 】
[Sisters, are you no longer curious about what the finished choreography video looks like with the cat head mosaiced? 】
[Of course I’m curious. It’s the first time I see the entire practice room full of trainees with cat-head codes. It’s outrageous! 】
[What’s even more outrageous is that the program team’s new coding method has become a hot topic, and many netizens are laughing. Hahahaha]
[The production team would rather spend a lot of time making the cats do silly moves during the live broadcast, but are reluctant to spoil the second public performance in advance. Seriously, I'm crying! 】
When the production team mentioned possible spoilers for each group’s second public performance, they were blurred out with a cat head.
In order to avoid disgusting the audience, the censored cat head is the fruit cat that netizens have loved recently.
The audience saw cats picking and jumping around various fruits in the live broadcast room, which was both funny and silly.
scold?
I can’t bear to do it. I can’t bear to do it at all!
The program crew can only control it tightly.
At eight o'clock, Shen Xiu finished revising half of the arrangement, closed his notebook, and expertly locked the door of the practice room before going to the cafeteria to eat.
Half an hour later, Shen Xiu appeared in front of the live camera again.
Chen Xiu didn't know that the production team had censored the live broadcast room. While eating dinner, Chen Xiu decided to work on the arrangement before the cameras were turned off at ten o'clock.
Under the gaze of countless audiences, and without any musical accompaniment, they tried out movements one by one in a dry manner, their movements were incoherent and lacked beauty.
Just thinking about it made Shen Xiu so embarrassed that he dug his toes into the ground.
For the sake of the audience's eyes and to save his own little face, Shen Xiu decided to work on the choreography after the live camera was turned off at 10 o'clock.
Time always flies when one is busy. At ten o'clock, Shen Xiu raised his eyes and glanced at the camera.
In the practice room of Team Chen Xiu, the last shot captured by the camera that was turned off three seconds late was the scene of Chen Xiu suddenly looking up at the camera.
[Is this an Easter egg?] ! It must be! 】
[Damn, Xiu Xiu’s look was so sharp, like a killer suddenly looking at the camera! 】
[After watching cats all day, I was very satisfied to see this kind of Easter egg in the end! 】
[Ahem, those who are slow are still crying, I have already taken a screenshot and posted it on my homepage, sisters, please take it, you are welcome~]
[Ahhh, I love you so much, I want to hug you and give you a smack! 】
Chen Xiu had no idea that he had just glanced up at the camera and was captured into a GIF by quick-handed netizens.
In the practice room, Shen Xiu projected the choreography video of Song Junying and Zhao Mingwei onto the big screen, stood up and stretched his body, then began to replicate the movements in the choreography video.
Every time he made a move, if Shen Xiu felt it was abrupt, he would stop and record it, and think about how to change the move to make it better...
Never underestimate the gossiping ability of the public during their evening rest time, especially today is Saturday.
After a busy week, netizens have been wandering around major social platforms, looking for gossip and melons everywhere.
A high-definition GIF of a person looking up at the camera became a hot topic after netizens liked and commented on it in just half an hour.
Ever since Shen Xiu participated in the talent show "Young Man Invincible", he has often been on the hot searches, and netizens are no longer unfamiliar with Shen Xiu.
Netizens who didn’t have time to follow the live broadcast saw this fresh screenshot and left comments to make guesses out of curiosity.
——Is this a spoiler for the latest GG material shot by Xiu Da Lao? Suspense gg?
——I think so. I guess that this time, Brother Xiu will definitely play a cold-blooded killer in GG!
——Or an agent on a mission, the script must be like this: when Agent Xiu was on a mission, he looked sharply at the person who was peeking at him through the camera. His cold gaze penetrated the camera and scared the person who was peeking at him half to death!
——Ahem... Is it possible that this is just a screenshot of the last moment before the live broadcast room was closed?
——Impossible, absolutely impossible!
——I don’t care, with such a fierce and murderous look, this must be a killer Xiu or an agent Xiu!
The next day.
After seeing the music and dance performed by Shen Xiu after his revisions, the members of Shen Xiu's team once again felt a sense of admiration in their hearts.
This song is awesome just by listening to it. This dance does not violate their original intention at all.
Not only are the moves more handsome, but they’re also more explosive!
But at this moment...in order to prevent Chen Xiu from thinking that they had never seen the world, they suppressed their excitement and cheered without making a fuss, and looked at Chen Xiu as reservedly as possible.
The team members thought that their looks were reserved enough, but in Shen Xiu's eyes it was:... Why are everyone looking at me with such scary eyes so early in the morning!
In order to avoid the hot gazes that made Shen Xiu want to hide under the table, Shen Xiu spoke to divert everyone's attention.
"This is the part I have divided. Everyone take a look at it. If you have no problem, start practicing right away."
Xia Wenhao got his part and thought that Chen Xiu was still the same Chen Xiu, always arranging everything perfectly without saying a word.
In fact, they all forgot to divide these things.
When Zhao Mingwei saw the part of the paper that belonged to him, he frowned slightly and looked at Shen Xiu with an expression that seemed to want to say something but stopped.
Shen Xiu, who was always very sensitive to other people's gazes, could hardly ignore it, and looked directly at Zhao Mingwei: "What's the matter?"
Here we come!
