Because of the sale, all artists have suspended their activities and are waiting for arrangements from the new owner.
The uncertainty of fate makes many people feel uneasy.
As the only two Daxia people, this is especially true for Zhou Yujia and Meng Xiuyi.
Zhou Yujia, from Beilong City, joined Boon Edam to pursue her dreams after graduating from junior high school because she fell in love with the Korean girl group.
She has good talents, especially dancing, so she successfully debuted as a main dancer.
But because of Da Xia's identity, Bao Dun didn't care about her.
After debuting, I received relatively few resources and has been tepid so far.
Meng Xiuyi is from Donggang. Her language talent is very good. She became a trainee by accident.
Her parents were doing business in Korea.
One summer vacation, she went to Korea to work as a summer job as a translator, and was accepted by Boon Edam.
Unexpectedly, because of her good looks and good singing talent, she eventually became a trainee.
Meng Xiuyi agreed because she really liked singing.
Moreover, Boon Edam will pay her a salary as a translator and also promises that she will debut as the next member of a girl group within two years.
As a result, things are unpredictable.
"Xiuyi, the new owner has sent someone over and asked us to gather in the assessment hall." Zhou Yujia read while holding her cell phone.
"Assessment hall?" Meng Xiuyi asked doubtfully.
"Yeah." Zhou Yujia nodded and said, "I don't know the specifics."
"Then let's go." Meng Xiuyi sighed, "You have to face it after all. If it doesn't work, you can only go back to Daxia."
"I probably won't go back," Zhou Yujia said. "I have worked hard in Korea for so many years. It cannot be in vain. I have to make something famous."
Meng Xiuyi said nothing more.
She knew that Zhou Yujia was very enterprising.
After debuting, he is always the one who works the hardest.
But once the shot is cut, it's of no use.
The two people came to the assessment hall.
They glanced around and saw that all the artists had arrived.
At the front are three strange young men.
"Hello everyone, my name is Rao Yuan, and I am your new person in charge."
Zhou Yujia and Meng Xiuyi looked at each other, both seeing the surprise in each other's eyes.
Although Rao Yuan speaks Korean, there is no translation on his name.
This approach is undoubtedly the Daxia people.
However, there are people from Daxia in various countries, so it cannot be proved that the new owner is a company from Daxia.
"According to the company's wishes, we will retain singer Li Yaxi and a girl group." Rao Yuan said, "Instead of the current girl group, we will select six new members from the remaining people."
There was inevitably some commotion down there.
Many trainees did not expect the new owner's actions.
It sounds strange to leave only a few people.
But there are opportunities.
If you pass the new debut assessment, you will be able to debut.
As a trainee, there are assessments every week, every month, and every year.
If you keep ranking high, you may be able to debut.
But it's just possible.
Because women's teams have a certain positioning or concept, especially in Korea, where competition is fierce, personal strength is not that important.
The company will pay more attention to the team's style.
If it doesn't meet the requirements, it's useless no matter how strong you are.
But Rao Yuan only meant strength, which made many people ready to make a move.
Rao Yuan didn't give them too much thought and let them prepare.
The assessment is divided into three aspects, all of which are routine.
Sing, dance, rap.
This is also an essential ability for idol trainees.
As long as one stands out enough.
The assessment lasted for one day.
At the end, Zhuoyuan said: "Everyone worked hard today, and the results will be announced tomorrow morning."
After he finished speaking, he took the information and left, and the others returned to the dormitory.
In Goryeo, the status of idols is not high, and many first-line groups still have to live in dormitories.
And the dormitory is quite average.
It gets worse the further down you go.
Some draft-limited tours can only take economy class or buses to go out.
"I guess it will be difficult for me to stay."
Meng Xiuyi's tone did not fluctuate much.
Because she had expected it.
Her strength can only be regarded as mid-range among the crowd.
It's not that she's not talented, it's just that her practice time is too short.
Zhou Yujia has been with Boon Edam for five years, while she has been with Boon Edam for less than one year.
Before this, she had no professional training.
"Maybe there will be a turning point."
Zhou Yujia also knew about Meng Xiuyi's situation, so she quickly changed the topic and said, "Whether we go or not, let's go have a big dinner tonight."
The only way to relieve worries is to work hard.
Meng Xiuyi's hobby is eating.
With so many trainees, she is the only one who would sneak snacks during training on weekdays.
But she still maintains a good figure.
When Zhou Yujia talked about having a big meal, she came to life again and said: "Even if you are eliminated, you are just going home. The first priority is to have dinner first."
the next day.
Everyone gathered in the assessment hall again.
Waoyuan took out the information and read: "The new girl group is called D-girl, which means six diamonds, so there are six members in total, namely Han Shujuan, Li Yuna, Jin Liying, Zhang Youen, Zhou Yujia, and Meng Xiuyi."
No one had objections to the first five, but many were surprised when they heard the sixth one.
Without further ado, someone couldn't help but ask: "Why is there Meng Xiuyi? Her ranking is obviously not high."
The person asking the question was also a trainee.
Because she was higher than Meng Xiuyi in the usual assessment, she was not convinced at this time.
"This is the company's decision."
Yaoyuan was not angry, and said calmly, "I chose her because she is more in line with the definition of the new girl group, and it has nothing to do with her strength."
The reason sounds reasonable, but in fact Meng Xiuyi herself is confused.
"For the rest of you, the company will terminate your contract. I'm sorry."
Yaoyuan naturally doesn't care what the Koreans are thinking, he only needs to carry out Xingdong Entertainment's orders.
"The six of you and Li Yaxi are coming with me."
He led the seven remaining artists to a multimedia classroom.
In the confused eyes of Li Yaxi and others, Yaoyuan offered a new contract.
To be honest, the original contract share was quite small.
This is also the norm in the Korean idol industry.
The company gets the lion's share, and the idol can only get a small part.
Unless the popularity reaches a certain level, it is almost impossible to negotiate terms.
The new contract surprised Han Yaxi and others.
Scary good.
But Zhou Yujia thought it looked a bit familiar.
This contract is almost a template for a B-level contract for domestic singers.
Is the new owner really Daxia’s company?
If this is the case, it can explain why Meng Xiuyi was left behind.
Zhou Yujia was even more certain when she saw the last condition.
As written above, you cannot leak any company information during your time in the company, including personnel, contracts, song sources, etc.
It's quite strange.
But others didn't think too much and signed one after another.
Looking back at the current situation, he said: "The first thing the company does is to release new songs for you. Among them, Han Yaxi is a single, and Diamond Girl is an album."
Hanyaxi and others were relieved when they heard this.
So far, the new owner seems to take them seriously.
Not only is the contract generous, but new songs will be prepared immediately.
"Next, let me introduce you to your producer."
Yaoyuan turned on his computer and connected to Song Yu's video. Soon his profile picture appeared on the big screen.
The seven people immediately widened their eyes.
Zhou Yujia and Meng Xiuyi often pay attention to the country, so they naturally know how Song Yu is flourishing.
And Hanyaxi and others also knew him.
It's because of the popularity of "My Love from the Star".
This country is very obsessed with appearance.
And Song Yu's appearance was deeply liked by them.
Even though his nationality is different, he is very famous in Goryeo.
But none of the seven people thought that their producer was Song Yu.
This is simply incredible.
It's like buying concert tickets. You didn't get Jay Chou's ticket, you could only buy Mayday tickets, but when you arrived at the venue, you found that Jay Chou was there.
What is a surprise?
This is it.
Song Yu had watched the videos of the seven of them yesterday and had a certain understanding of their strength.
Not bad.
But in today's Korea, whether an idol is popular or not does not depend on personal strength, but on the quality of songs and company marketing.
Why can the three major entertainment companies launch popular girl groups or boy groups every few years, but other companies can't?
The reason is money.
Without money, I can't buy songs, do marketing, and can't even hit the charts.
Xingdong Entertainment is not short of money for the time being, so there is no problem with the initial investment.
Now it depends on the quality of the songs.
Song Yu had previously inspected the Goryeo of this world, which was close to the Korea of his previous life.
That is, the fourth, fifth, and sixth generation girl groups.
The Six Generations girl group has just started and is relatively less famous.
Among the four generations of girl groups, the most representative ones are undoubtedly the three girl groups Twice, Redvelvet, and Blak.
The Five Generations girl group happened to be an active girl group in the previous life. They performed well in various ways and can be called involution.
Because there are many well-known ones, such as ive, itzy, aespa, (g)i-dle, stayc, etc.
Song Yu chooses songs based on two criteria, one is the melon list, and the other is the top song, which is the number of champions in the current period.
Although it is said that Diamond Girls will release an album, in fact it only needs one title song.
After all, according to Korean tradition, usually only one song is played during a song performance.
There is no need for Song Yu to compose too many songs, just take your time.
In the end he chose two songs.
"celerbrity" and "tomboy".
The former is iu, which is Li Zhien's song, which ranked first on the Melon final annual list in 2021.
The latter is a song by (g)i-dle, which is number one on the melon real-time annual chart in 2022.
Lee Ji-eun is a singer, actor, and host. Her national popularity in South Korea is very high, and she should be among the top female singers.
The quality of her songs is naturally good, but her success in ranking first is inseparable from her own fame.
Now that Li Yaxi is singing this song, it will definitely be slow in the early stage, and we can only rely on the company to open up the situation.
For another song, Song Yu feels that it is more likely to become an instant hit.
(g)i-dle suffered a major setback when a member quit the group before releasing this song.
Many people were not very optimistic about it, but they finally turned around with "Tomboy" and took a step further.
Song Yu knew something about this group.
Because there are two Chinese members.
One of them is Song Yuqi, who once served as a resident guest on "Running Man".
Song Yu has heard of this song.
The rhythm is very strong and addictive. It is the kind of fast song that can easily catch the ears.
And the lyrics are also particularly sharp.
After Song Yu handed over the two songs to them, he didn't care anymore. He only needed to receive the finished product.
If it doesn't work, keep singing until he is satisfied.
As for the remaining Korean songs, Boon Edam will handle them themselves, and their original song collection channels will not disappear because of the change of ownership.
Song Yu left quickly.
But the songs he left behind shocked the seven people.
How could a Daxia native write such pure Korean songs?
And the quality is so high?
On the other hand, Zhou Yujia and Meng Xiuyi seemed to be able to accept it when they thought of how he had destroyed the music scene in China.
Of course, the most important thing for them is that they have peace of mind.
Xingdong Entertainment is on the rise in Daxia and is not short of money.
Now that he is expanding his business abroad, and Song Yu writes the songs himself, it goes without saying that he attaches great importance to it.
Not surprisingly, their treatment is much better than before, and their chances of becoming popular are also greater.
After Song Yu ended the video call, he went to Jianghai Film and Television City.
Today is the launch ceremony of "Legend of Sword and Fairy".
After Chen Yan's arrival, the actors for the important roles have basically been determined.
Song Yu plays Li Xiaoyao, Guan Man plays Zhao Ling'er, Sang Yingying plays Lin Yueru, Chen Yan plays the role of the Wine and Sword Fairy, Pang Xu plays Tang Yu Xiaobao, and Xi Wei plays Anu.
There are still some roles that are vacant.
We have to wait until Dream Entertainment acquires it to be sure.
Currently, Shen He and Zhu Dian are fighting a lawsuit.
Because of the intervention of Xingdong Entertainment and Penguin, Shen He was at the upper hand.
It shouldn't take long for the results to come out.
During the opening ceremony, Song Yu did not invite the media.
Because he felt too annoyed.
Other film and television dramas invite the media because they need them to report on them and increase their popularity.
But Song Yu doesn't need it.
Now, he is the heat, and there is no need to induce heat.
Movies, songs, and variety shows are all inseparable from him.
"Chinatown" is heading towards 5 billion.
Needless to say, the song and Zhou Ting dominated the charts during this period.
The second season of the variety shows "The Voice Penguin" and "Run, Brother" took the top two spots.
In addition, the second season of "The Masked Singer", "Ace vs. Ace" and "National Treasure" are in preparation.
Not surprisingly, these are the hottest variety shows this year.
All by his hand.
After the opening ceremony, there will be a reading meeting.
For his own film and television dramas, Song Yu requires a reading session before filming starts, which means he is familiar with the scripts.
He will never allow any actor who reads 123456 lines to appear in his crew.
Actors are really getting simpler these days.
There is no need to memorize the lines, the dubbing relies on voice actors, and all the fight scenes are done by stand-ins.
What's even more outrageous is that no one came and they just posted pictures.
Song Yu would not spoil them.
Fortunately, the actors at Xingdong Entertainment are hardworking.
The same is true for singers like Pang Xu and Xi Wei.
They know that their acting skills are not as good as professional actors, so they never forget to study.
In the conference room.
Song Yu asked Shang Ruo to send the script.
Each actor receives the entire script.
It’s our own actors anyway, so we don’t have to worry about them leaking it.
To put it another way, if it were leaked, Xingdong Entertainment could sue them for bankruptcy.
Except for Zhuo Muquan, everyone else read the script for the first time.
Chen Yan touched his head.
As a newcomer, he was actually very curious about Song Yu.
When he first heard the title of the play, he felt retro.
This style is like the martial arts movies and TV series from more than ten years ago.
It may not be suitable for young people, but for him, it's just right.
After all, this style was popular when he was young.
As a screenwriter, Song Yu only has two idol dramas broadcast.
Chen Yan wasn't even interested.
He is interested in "The Legend of the Wither Heroes" and "The Legend of the Wither Heroes".
The naming style of these two movies is similar to "Legend of Sword and Fairy".
Chen Yan continued to scroll down with anticipation.
"This Li Xiaoyao is a bit interesting."
He remembered that most of the male protagonists in today's idol dramas were domineering CEOs.
Switching to fairy tale dramas, it’s like the Immortal Lord, the Demon Lord and the like.
It's rare that Li Xiaoyao starts with a mortal and a gangster character.
Seeing that this star practiced for ten years before debuting, I just remembered the domain name. This chapter has been completed!
