Chapter 050 Second Performance 16.0
Seeing the increasingly confused look on his teammates' faces, Lu Wei lowered his eyes and said nothing more. He walked straight to the empty space and started stretching.
It's nice to be in a close relationship like this, without having to deal with interpersonal relationships or define identity roles.
Seeing this, Zhang Haixi and others who wanted to ease the relationship and take advantage of it cast earnest glances at the team leader Jin Nayan.
This woman is so ruthless and cold that they really can't stand it.
Aren't Chinese people supposed to enjoy making dumplings for a reunion? Why did everything change when it came to Lu Wei? They had no other requests, they just wanted her to wash her underwear with a cold face.
Lu Wei: That's all! Such a niche text, such a beautiful state of mind.
Kim Na-yeon knew her own limitations and looked up at the sky and the ground, but not at her teammates. Sigh... there must be something wrong with her eyes; they've been particularly bad lately. She needs to go to the hospital someday to avoid premature blindness.
When the relationship between teammates deteriorated before, no action was taken. Now when they want to ease the situation, no intervention is made. How can this not be considered a disguised form of fairness?
How could there be such a considerate captain like her in the world? She is a blessing to all the team members.
After a silent eye battle, the happy practice time came again, and Teacher Ha Hairen once again walked into the practice room with a heartless pace.
Lu Wei quickly adjusted his state, threw away his worries, and gave his 100% seriousness, making his overall mood seem to be improving.
We have to go to the live rehearsal tomorrow, so today is the only day left for proper performance preparation. Without an instructor to provide mid-performance evaluation, the contestants can only get feedback from their teachers and then make adjustments.
As the music started, Ha Hairen looked at the team members one by one with his sharp eyes.
The neatness is OK, there is no crazy stealing of strength, the expression management is good, there is no unlucky stepmother face, it is a mature work that can be performed on stage.
It's just that he lacks personal charm, can't break away from his own style, and can't surpass the original singer. It's more like a perfect cover.
Even Lu Wei, who was the most infectious and eye-catching, lacked some of that feeling. Perhaps it would be better to be in the live audience, since this was just a practice room after all.
An idol’s life lies on the stage, not in anything else.
Thinking of this, Ha Hairen did not say anything critical. He stood quietly in the middle of the mirror, acting as an inspector, watching the contestants perform this competition song over and over again.
It takes ten years of hard work off stage and only one minute on stage. There is no shortcut to avoid making mistakes on stage.
The clock struck twelve, and Ha Hae-in, for once, didn't turn around and leave. Instead, he said, uncharacteristically, "Good, keep it up. Remember the camera positions during rehearsal tomorrow."
When they heard the dance teacher's praise, no one showed surprise on their faces at first, but looked out the window in disbelief.
Did the sun rise from the west? They had actually heard Ha Hairen's praise in their lifetime.
Lu Wei had long known that Teacher He wasn't as unkind as he appeared, so she wasn't surprised or puzzled. Without waiting for her teammates to recover, she gave her answer. She bent down, bowed deeply in Teacher He's direction, and said, "Thank you for your hard work."
He Hairen slightly raised the corners of his mouth, revealing a very faint smile. People are always moved by sincere emotions.
I hope this student can have a smoother journey on this winding road.
The other team members quickly came to their senses when they heard Lu Wei's voice. They no longer thought about why He Hairen praised them. Under the gaze of the camera, they quickly leaned over and followed: "Thank you, teacher, you have worked hard."
"Well, good luck." Ha Hae-in nodded, turned and left the practice room.
After Group A's extra practice, Lu Wei immediately rushed to Group B. Since the two groups had completely different musical styles, the transition between morning and afternoon was her biggest headache.
The impact of the Reuters photos has not yet faded, and the expectations of teammates are still rising. The pressure of standing in the center position is greater than expected.
In Group A, Lu Wei only needed to perform her part well and not worry about anything else. In Group B, she not only needed to complete her part well, but also to raise the atmosphere within the team.
The stronger her teammates are, the more outstanding she has to be.
This is the basic requirement for being in the center.
Before the accompaniment began, Lu Wei rubbed his cheeks and exhaled, forcing himself into memories, into the sitcom called youth.
Perhaps because of his preference, Lu Wei was more comfortable with this song. He didn't have to show off, his eyes curved unconsciously.
The brisk pace and lively expression lifted the mood of the spectators. Even their teammates, who hadn't quite gotten into the groove yet, were inspired to relax and smile brightly.
Jin Youli shook her head helplessly. Even though they were already on opposite sides, she couldn't say bad things about Lu Wei against her conscience.
Fit is far more important than being appropriate.
This song has Lu Wei's name written on it.
There is no way, really no way.
Even if she has 0 shots in the first public performance, she can still make a name for herself on stage in the second public performance.
Let me ask you, who wouldn't feel anxious when seeing their opponents getting stronger and stronger? Kim Yu-ri believes in her own strength, but she always remains vigilant against the new wave.
Seeing Lu Wei becoming more and more outstanding, An Zhuxuan and the others were in a good mood and there was no big change. The ranking difference between the first public performance was too big. They had been thinking about grabbing the spotlight in the first place, and now they can grab a big one, how can it not be considered a dream come true?
Whether it's Kim Yoo-ri or Lu Wei who takes the center stage, it's enough for them to enjoy the positive effects of the stage. Forcing too much of anything else will only lead to a waste of effort.
Li Enxing is consistent in her words and deeds. As long as they don't interfere with her bad behavior and don't make trouble to show her presence, she has no thoughts or opinions about anyone.
Anyway, she doesn't plan to stay in this circle after her contract expires. Being able to pretend to be sociable is already the greatest kindness that Lee Eun-star can show to her fans and audiences.
With the body and mind highly active, the busy practice time passed quickly.
Thinking that the program would be officially broadcast today, Kim Yoo-ri did not act like the ruthless bad guy and did not force the team members to stay together until the last moment of 9 p.m.
After all, she also has to look at the feedback from the outside world and explore the program team's positioning of the contestants. She can't get too close to the royal family or something like that.
Kim Yoo-ri wrapped up her words and said, "Let's stop here for today. Everyone should get some rest early so that we can be in a better state for rehearsal and to find problems tomorrow."
In this way, even if the audience deduces the broadcast time of the program based on the rehearsal lines of the second public performance, they cannot say anything high-sounding to her loudly.
Lu Wei had learned another trick: only by occupying the moral high ground could one be invincible. But...it might be better to go home early, watch the show quickly at double speed, and still have some time to catch up on some sleep.
An Zhuxuan's eyes darted around, but when he found nothing unusual, he continued, "Yeah, you need to conserve your energy to perform better."
"Yes, there are still tough battles to fight tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. I hope our efforts during this period will not be in vain, and we can present a wonderful stage performance to the star promoters." Cao Youmei echoed.
The remaining two people also understood: "Everyone has been working hard recently, it is necessary to relax appropriately."
Seeing that none of her teammates raised any objections, Jin Youli smiled and said, "Let's go, everyone."
Seeing this, An Zhuxuan quickly walked to the light switch and became the last person to walk out of the practice room today.
Cao Yumei smacked her lips, too lazy to say anything more. After rehearsal tomorrow, she might have to come back for practice. It wouldn't be too late to grab the key then.
A group of people walked out of the relatively quiet building under the bright moonlight. Without looking back at the window pane, you can tell that there are not many people left here.
Of course, there are always some players who choose to take a different path and work hard alone. Whether to watch the main film or not, and whether to reduce sleep time or not, is a two-way choice.
Maybe it was because his mentality had improved, or maybe it was because his busy life had diluted his sorrow, but Lu Wei was now much more open-minded about the content of the film.
The production team can edit it however they want; there are zero shots and zero close-ups of the performance, so they can't come up with anything new. Anyone could be royal, but she can't be.
Lu Wei washed up as per the instructions, lay on the bed, covered his head with the quilt, and connected the headphones to Bluetooth.
At this moment, if there is a dormitory supervisor checking the dormitories, he will probably be scared by these neatly bulged things when he opens the door.
The sense of déjà vu of Tuwen was overwhelming, and those who didn't know would think they were performing some new ritual.
Tsk...
I have to criticize the production team for their lack of foresight. They didn't even turn off the cameras for two hours to give the contestants a more relaxed viewing environment. After all, everyone contributes to the ratings, so they can barely be considered one of the gods.
Lu Wei smacked his lips, clicked on the official website of MNTB, and connected to the free Wi-Fi in the dormitory building.
Yes, you heard it right.
The dormitory building had Wi-Fi, a rare place where she felt comfortable. Since the production team didn't collect cell phones, there was no need to control the internet. This gave impoverished Lu Wei the opportunity to access the internet.
After the opening advertisement, a more passionate accompaniment appeared, the program invitation letters that the contestants had received appeared in the form of recitation, and the interview footage of the pilot broadcast was the first to come into view.
The popular group headed by Kim Yoo-ri, Lee Eun-byul, and Han Seo-young came online, bringing a wave of memories.
The brilliant achievements of 101 and the period of widespread popularity flashed by one after another. With the beginning and the development, there must be a turning point, so confusion, loneliness and sadness soon followed.
It seems okay at the moment. Perhaps due to market feedback, this part ended very quickly without any lengthy pity-mongering or crying, and then entered a more positive and affirmative part.
Until the end of the interview, Lu Wei still couldn't find himself.
It's perfect, with no sense of presence at all. This must be the reward Xiao Wei deserves for her serious avoidance of the camera.
But... thinking back, even if it had aired, it probably wouldn't have been a big deal. She probably didn't say anything outrageous or out of character, and she still had the characteristics of a regular person.
