Chapter 44 Dreams do not necessarily lead to a way out

"In Seoul alone, there are more than 200 comprehensive universities with performance departments. Coupled with the training of trainees from various brokerage companies, countless young people are sweating and sweating every day to pursue their dreams." Su Yan drank lightly.

He took a sip of juice and sighed softly.

Jiang Chao fell silent. He didn't expect Su Yan's dream pursuit to be so difficult.

At this time, they were in a dessert shop.

But Su Yan then laughed again: "But it doesn't matter, I think it's quite fulfilling. Singing and dancing every day is also my favorite thing."

In fact, what makes young people who are working hard on the road to pursuing their dreams the most powerless is not that the days are tiring and miserable, but that they don’t know anything about the future.

The content of their chat mainly focused on Su Yan's life in Korea, so Su Yan was talking most of the time. Jiang Chao and Ding Xuan asked one or two questions from time to time. Li Enzhu didn't speak much most of the time, but she listened.

He was very careful, nodding, frowning, and sighing from time to time.

"Our company has a total of 7 floors, three underground and four above ground. The top management of the company all work on the ground, and the underground is where the trainees train."

Su Yan said embarrassedly: "I felt that the living environment arranged by the company was not very good, so I rented a house outside. Hehe, it's not that I can't endure hardship, I just don't want to endure this kind of hardship."

Jiang Chao and Ding Xuan both laughed. They knew that Su Yan's father was a pretty good big boss in China, and the monthly living expenses he paid her were higher than the income of most well-known Korean entertainment stars.

"But to be honest... I'm quite confused now." Su Yan sighed.

"What...?" Jiang Chao asked.

"The period before we officially debut should be called the waiting period. Most people will be eliminated during this period. But even if we get through it and achieve staged victory, it is only the first step in a long journey of thousands of miles. In the Korean entertainment industry

The mechanism is very different from that in China, and the control over its artists is very strict."

"The most disgusting thing is that once the contract is signed, your entire youth will be dedicated to the company for more than ten years, and the company's commission will be extremely large."

Jiang Chao frowned, and Ding Xuan directly interrupted: "Then you might as well go back to China to develop! I think China is pretty good too."

Su Yan hesitated for a moment: "It's not that I haven't thought about it...but you can indeed learn a lot of skills there, and..." Su Yan glanced at Li Enzhu before continuing: "My friend over there asked me

I’m also a little reluctant to leave. So, I probably won’t return to China for the time being.”

Jiang Chao noticed that when Li Enzhu heard Ding Xuan's suggestion that Su Yan return to China for development, there was a flash of panic in Li Enzhu's eyes. When she heard that Su Yan made it clear that she would not return to China for the time being, she felt a little calmer and just bit her head lightly.

Biting his lip.

"Oh... forget it, let's not talk about such a heavy topic. Let's talk about Jiang Chao!" Ding Xuan saw that the atmosphere was a bit dull, so he took the initiative to change the topic.

"Ah? Are you talking about me?" Jiang Chao was stunned.

Su Yan's eyes lit up: "That's right. This time I asked for leave to come and watch Jiang Chao's game!"

Ding Xuan smiled evilly: "In this competition, I'm afraid Jiang Chao will be seduced by those girls!"

Jiang Chao rolled his eyes and then looked sideways at Ding Xuan.

Su Yan laughed: "Ah? Does anyone like Jiang Chao again? Tell me quickly!"

Jiang Chao sighed.

Ding Xuan chuckled and began to talk more and more jealously.

Su Yan laughed while listening: "Haha, you are still so charming."

Jiang Chao spread his hands, "I'm also very helpless..."



The four of them sat for a while and got ready to eat. Before leaving, Li Enzhu stood up. Su Yan immediately grabbed Li Enzhu and asked, "Where are you going?"

Li Enzhu hesitated for a moment, then said honestly: "You paid for the air tickets and accommodation, so I'll pay for this!"

Su Yan quickly shook her head and winked at Jiang Chao.

Jiang Chao understood and was about to get up, but Ding Xuan held his shoulders down.

Ding Xuan had already stood up, and he smiled: "What are you talking about? Kyoto is my territory, and I can still ask you to pay? My face is at stake!"

Jiang Chao laughed and said to Li Enzhu: "It doesn't matter, let Ding Xuan go."

Ding Xuan had already passed by, and Li Enzhu hurriedly chased after him: "No! This is my treat!"

After the two of them walked away, Su Yan sighed, "To be honest, I didn't expect the situation of celebrities there to be so bad before I arrived in South Korea."

"Li Eun-joo is my roommate and the first friend I met there. She is very generous in getting along well, so I have always had a good relationship with her."

"Her family's conditions are not very good. Her parents are ordinary working-class people, and she has two younger sisters to take care of."

"She is not a trainee, but an actor. To be honest, you might not think that she has actually played many small roles. If she were in our country, she would be a small star with an assistant. But she

To make a living, she has to work part-time here and there. I have been to their store, and she has to use the most standard squatting posture to put coffee in front of customers, and she also has to do a lot of complicated work."

Jiang Chao was startled when he heard this, then looked back in the direction of Ding Xuan and Li Enzhu, and remained silent.

Su Yan continued: "The last time she filmed was last year. I don't know much about acting. She said it is very difficult to get a role. Even for a small supporting role, you have to audition more than ten times, and the director will continue to

Remind her how many people are competing with her for that role."

"In the days when there is no filming, Li Eun-joo is waiting for a call from her agent every day, hoping to join the crew as soon as possible...sigh."

"Recently, her sister was sick and needed a lot of medical expenses. I told her not to panic, everything would be fine. I lent her a lot of money, and I didn't ask her to pay for the rent. She is a very wealthy person.

A self-respecting girl will definitely not accept it if it is not really difficult."

Hearing this, Jiang Chao also sighed: "That's why you don't plan to return to China for a short time? In addition to fulfilling your dream, you also want to help her?"

Su Yan laughed: "Don't talk about me being too noble... I also have selfish motives. She is very virtuous and good at cooking. Usually in the rented apartment, I am very lazy, cleaning and doing...

Eun-joo is doing all the things like food, so I can’t bear to let her go.”

"Then... what are your next steps?"

Su Yan was silent again. She thought for a while: "I don't know... do you have any suggestions?"

What suggestions could Jiang Chao have? He is just a high school student now and may not see the problem as clearly as Su Yan, so he also fell silent.

There are many young people like Lee Eun-joo and So-yeon in Seoul. They stop at the entrance of the entertainment industry, waiting for the opportunity to step in. Even if Su-yeon fails to step in, there is still a way to fall back - and even if she goes back, she may be better off than before.

It's okay to move forward, but more young people like Lee Eun-joo.
