Chapter 126 Transition Chapter 23.0
The filming work continued into the early morning of the new day. Yawning sounds appeared one after another as if it was contagious. Lu Wei looked left and right and kept her mouth tightly shut. She was not worried about image management, but she was afraid that she would become more and more sleepy.
There are still some group photos left to be taken. When the final photos come out, other contestants will be full of energy while she is listless. That would be quite unprofessional.
Lu Wei loves what she does. She doesn't want to appear depressed or in a negative mood. If she does that, she won't be able to get over it. She wants to bring happiness and joy to her friends, not bad luck.
"Okay, it's almost over, so cheer up." The staff clapped their hands and asked the contestants to adjust their state.
Hearing this, Lu Wei politely thanked the makeup artist who was helping her touch up her makeup and walked into the prepared shooting area.
The desks, chairs, and blackboard were combined, creating a clear scene. Lu Wei first glanced down at his clothes, then raised his eyes to look at the contestants beside him.
Forget it, I won’t say anymore.
The official photo uniform is a perfect match for this place.
"Jin Youli and Lu Wei, you two should sit at the front and back tables. Everyone else should gather in this area and just chat and play." The cameraman said as he gave action instructions.
???!!!!!!
Hearing this, everyone was filled with surprise and confusion. They had assumed the cameraman would film in a circular pattern, with everyone fanning out from the center, but they hadn't expected the cameraman to only bring out Lu Wei and Jin Youli.
It's hard not to ponder, to associate, and to figure out the program's intentions. In this talent show where rankings are paramount and the winner takes all, positioning is no small matter.
If you stand above your level, you will probably get scolded. If you don't fight for it, you will feel a little uncomfortable.
Lu Wei and Jin Youli exchanged glances, and at the same time, they scanned the expressions of the contestants beside them. The ones in the middle and upper parts had a hint of hesitation in their eyes, while the ones at the lower parts were more in deep thought, with neither happiness nor dissatisfaction visible in their eyes.
Well, what else can I say? Just take care of yourself. How others pose and where they stand depends on what they think.
Lu Wei smoothed her skirt, pulled out the chair, and sat down in the front area.
Seeing this, Jin Youli sat in the area designated by the cameraman. Since it did not harm her interests, she was too lazy to be a judge.
Han Shuying quickly pulled over a chair from the side and sat down, which happened to be in the area with the largest shooting area, so her face could be photographed from any angle.
Kong Yufei rolled her eyes speechlessly. She wondered who was actually in third place. Whoever wanted to take the blame could take it, but she wasn't going to swallow it. She moved swiftly and stood behind Lu Wei, completely blocking Han Shuying's path.
"No...you're sick, aren't you?" Han Shuying saw the staff present and hesitated to say the second half of the sentence. She looked at Kong Yufei with eyes that were about to spit fire.
Kong Yufei shrugged innocently. "Isn't it all about ability?" "If you can do it on the first day, why not on the fifteenth?" Besides, this guy is about to fall out of the upper circle. What right does he have to make such a fuss here?
Han Shuying, who was already angry, was now so angry that smoke almost came out of her head. What sin had she committed to meet such an unlucky person like Kong Yufei?
Lu Wei raised her eyebrows slightly. She finally understood why the "Fascinated" team had quarreled in front of the camera. The incompatibility of their zodiac signs was too obvious, and neither of them was willing to give in.
But this kind of fun is only for a while, and it will make you irritable if you watch it for too long. It was getting late, and she wanted to go back and rest early. Seeing that Jin Youli had no intention of stopping, Lu Wei said, "Are you hungry? It's already 1 o'clock without you noticing."
Gao Wenyan and the others, having heard the hidden meaning, could no longer watch the show. They slightly straightened their lips and stood in their pre-selected positions. There was friction and adjustment, but no retreat. Lu Wei's words only accelerated the battle.
To be honest, when it comes to innuendo, she is definitely on the list. I really don't know where she learned such offensive words.
Seeing Lu Wei speak up, Jin Youli didn't want to leave any room for criticism, so she quickly replied, "I'm a little bit upset. It's really getting late. Let's all work hard together and try to finish this as soon as possible."
"OK!"
“Fighting!”
Of course, they had to come down when there was a staircase. The contestants encouraged each other and immersed themselves in the filming.
Lu Wei did not look at the camera with empty eyes. He always prepared the background for himself and tried his best to make himself look more natural in the photos.
Having chosen this path, she not only has to give her all on stage, but also must fulfill all the essential elements of being an idol. Lu Wei may not be good at many things right now, but she will continue to learn and work hard.
The others also tried their best to pull off every good-looking pose they could think of. For their first outdoor shoot, there would definitely be people analyzing the pictures carefully. If their looks were outdone, it would be embarrassing, and it would be hard for the fans to defend themselves.
The shutter clicked, and the cameraman's eyes grew brighter and brighter with excitement. The finished film wasn't about how stylish it was, or how it resembled the cover of a top magazine, but rather about the ambition in the contestants' eyes.
Very beautiful.
She likes it very much.
So, after finishing all the filming, the cameraman said to the contestants: "Keep going."
"Thank you for your hard work." Everyone expressed their gratitude in unison.
Lu Wei leaned against the window of the business car and fell asleep instantly. Sun Congli, Kong Yufei and others in the car had no mood to chat and closed their eyes.
At the end of the day, in addition to completing their surrounding tasks well, everyone also gained a deeper understanding of their opponents in the top 9.
Facing the upcoming fourth performance, my worries were much less. Any displeasure we had with each other was just a few arguments and sarcastic remarks, never escalating to personal attacks.
Lu Wei and Sun Congli tiptoed back to the dormitory. Seeing that their roommate had fallen into a sweet dream, they groped in the dark to find some spare clothes and makeup removers without making any noise.
After washing up, Lu Wei lay on the bed and took out his phone. He looked at the inquiry message from his agent, sighed inwardly, and helplessly typed out the three words "It's all right."
The fourth public performance was to let the outside world choose, not let the contestants choose. She didn't want to send any biased signals to her friends who supported her. She could perform any of the five songs, as long as it was their choice.
Whether or not she'd be hanging out with the popular contestants wasn't Lu Wei's concern; her only concern was completing the performance. If everyone else was aligned, she could just sit back and enjoy the show, just like she did in Group B of the "Adolescence" section during the second public performance.
The only thing that needs to be considered is whether she will be able to complete the other pieces in a very short period of time and whether she can meet the standards if she is voted out due to the competition system.
The second ranking announcement time is exactly in the middle of the fourth public practice. If all the players in the team stay, the team with more people than the specified number will need to send players to the team with insufficient people.
According to past practices, this step should be internal investment.
Lu Wei had never socialized with anyone. She had no connections. At best, she knew some of her former teammates, and those from the second and third public performances. She didn't know if she would be assigned to a team, and even if she was, she didn't know if they would choose her.
So, you have to prepare in advance.
She couldn't let herself get caught in a dilemma, couldn't let her fate depend on vague speculation. She had to learn at least one more song, whether it meant pushing herself or stealing someone else's ideas.
After figuring it out, Lu Wei fell asleep.
The next day she slept until she woke up naturally, and was taken to reshoot some materials in the afternoon.
After the behind-the-scenes footage of the shooting was released, the outside world had mixed opinions on the matter. Some people believed that the contestants should focus on recording the show and should not be distracted by doing unnecessary things; some people believed that this would make the contestants more motivated and work harder to squeeze into the top circle.
Unfortunately... no matter how everyone discusses it, the program crew will not give up this piece of cake, nor will they be shaken by external voices. They will use their spare time to cooperate with the advertising shooting, and it has been written into the contract early on, so no one can find fault with it.
