The wedding photo plan was not just a matter for Xiao Qian and Li Qingjue, it was mainly to cooperate with Li Zhen's plan.
As the old man gets older, he likes to reminisce about the past more and more. Since last year, he has been thinking about visiting the places where he once fought and lived, and remembering his old comrades.
Fortunately, he was in good health and in good spirits. The people around him felt relieved and made arrangements.
However, at home, Li Jianguo and Xu Mingxia were both busy with work and unable to follow, so the task fell on Xiao Qian and Li Qingjue.
The two set out from the magical capital and met up with the old man in Ruijin. They traveled around the mountains and rivers, reminiscing about the past, and taking wedding photos at the same time.
Xiao Qian gained the most from this red trip.
The old man talked about many things that could not be learned from books in the past.
Just like this, from Ruijin to Jinggangshan, we walked and stopped along the Long March Road, ending in Yan'an.
The entire journey spans thousands of miles. Thanks to modern transportation conditions, everyone can just enjoy traveling and not be tired at all.
After the journey, the old man did not return to the capital, but came to the Magic City with the two children.
In the spring, the dusty weather in the capital was too great, which was not conducive for the elderly to recuperate. Secondly, Li Qingjue was pregnant, and Li Zhen was eager to watch the birth of the fourth generation.
The medical and health care staff around him are unparalleled. Only with these people helping to take care of Li Qingjue can the elderly man feel at ease.
Seeing Li Qingjue being protected and taken care of like a princess, Xiao Qian finally felt relieved and hurriedly went to South Korea again.
He put the debut of the girl group in May, and time is running out.
SM company has already received news that the final list of trainees has been decided, and they are just waiting for him to make a decision.
As soon as he arrived, almost all the company's top executives gathered.
Compared to when Super Junior debuted, the debut company of the new girl group takes it very seriously.
Li Xiuman also came and presided over the meeting in person.
"Planning team, report your work."
The planning team leader stood up, a little nervous.
He didn't know whether the work of the planning team could be recognized by the company's senior management. If it was rejected, he would never be able to raise his head in the future.
"In compliance with Director Xiao's regulations, our planning team has conducted three rounds of assessments on the trainees in the past two months. Based on various factors, the ones currently identified are Kim Taeyeon, Jung Soo-yeon, Lee Soon-kyu, Hwang Mi-young, and Kim Hyo-yeon
, Kwon Yoo Ri, Choi Soo Young, Lim Yoon Ah, Seo Joo Hyun. The ones in trouble are Park In Jung and Heo Chan Mi.”
Even with Xiao Qian's interference, the new combination returned to the old path after going round and round.
There's nothing we can do about it, Xiao Qian's influence is limited after all. The problems encountered by the trainees in his previous life will still happen.
Xiao Qian asked: "What is the problem between Park Renjing and Xu Canmei?"
The planning team leader quickly cheered up.
"Park In-jung has been absent from many practices recently. It seems that something happened at home. We are afraid that her condition may affect her debut, but she is very strong, so we can't make up her mind. As for Heo Chan-mi, her strength is a bit lacking, but she has great potential.
She is older and still young. The only problem is that her appearance is somewhat inconsistent with other people’s styles.”
Of course, the appearance of each person is very different, but according to the style, they can generally be divided into the same categories.
Pure type, gorgeous type, neutral type, tough type, etc...
Although the girls currently selected by the planning team are all different, they all fit the clear position of young girls. Xu Canmei is the only one who has a bit of a vixen appearance, which makes the planning team very embarrassed.
The planning team leader wants to fight for it.
"How about letting Xu Canmei undergo plastic surgery..."
At this time, Lee Soo Man's attitude was particularly determined.
"No, just cross her out."
The planning team leader looked at Xiao Qian, and Xiao Qian nodded.
The two bosses agreed, and Xu Canmei missed the opportunity to debut.
Xiao Qian knew more about Xu Canmei. This girl was an evergreen talent show in her previous life and had participated in countless talent shows.
However, time and time again, the results were not good.
This is enough to show that this person has serious shortcomings.
Keeping her in the new group will only drag down the strength of the new group.
"What about Park In Jung?"
Xiao Qian hesitated.
Should Soyeon be removed from Girls' Generation?
But he didn't allow him to think too much, Li Xiuman spoke.
"No matter what happened to her family, she doesn't care about such a major event as her debut, which shows that she has no sense of responsibility. The interests of the company and the efforts of so many people cannot be entrusted to such a person."
The meaning is very clear.
Park In-jung also lost the chance to debut.
Xiao Qian breathed a sigh of relief.
Letting Li Xiuman make such a decision is also a solution.
Frankly speaking, even as a fan of T-ara, Xiao Qian doesn't think Soyeon is suitable for Girls' Generation.
A too big age gap will make her incompatible with other members. Unlike T-ara, the age of the members continues to decrease in a ladder, so being older is no problem.
Except for her, the age difference between the other members of Girls' Generation is concentrated within two years, and they can almost be regarded as one generation. However, there is a full four-year age gap between her and the youngest Seohyun. This gap is difficult to bridge.
Furthermore, it is also a big problem that Soyeon's character and emotional intelligence remain in Girls' Generation.
I don’t know what’s going on with this girl. She has a reputation of being a quick talker, but in fact she always seems to be brainless when doing things.
It's better to drag her to MBN and keep her by your side for training.
Excluding Park In Jung and Heo Chan Mi, the lineup was suddenly reduced to nine people, which happened to be the nine people in the original version.
Afraid that Li Xiuman was still not satisfied, Xiao Qian hurriedly said: "The lineup of nine people is just right. It won't be too much and there won't be any shortcomings. Let's keep it like this. Next, we can discuss the issue of debut."
Everyone was refreshed and started to use their brains to express their opinions.
Everyone had already had various ideas about how to plan the new combination. Xiao Qian did not comment on the spot, but summarized these ideas.
Adopting it or not is another matter, the positive attitude of subordinates must be encouraged.
That afternoon, Xiao Qian went to the practice room in person.
The girls in the room have been looking forward to it for a long time, and they are all very nervous.
Seeing Xiao Qian come in, everyone hurriedly ran over and stood there, waiting for their fate to be pronounced.
Xiao Qian glanced at it and saw that there were only ten girls, and Pu Renjing was still not there.
Also, it’s really hard to make a choice when your family encounters such a change.
"For those whose names I have read, please go to the practice room on the second floor and wait."
A simple sentence, but of great significance.
Among SM company's trainees, the hierarchy is very strict.
The training place for trainees who have just joined the company is actually not in the SM company. Everyone can clearly see that small dilapidated building. The place is too small and cannot accommodate so many people.
Therefore, the training venues for junior trainees are always in nearby dance studios.
Only trainees who have entered the debut stage will be gathered into the company for training.
Many times, the fanpai information seen by the outside world says that so-and-so is good, is a good prospect, is the best among trainees, etc., which refers to trainees at this level.
The place where these trainees train is in the corner of the first floor of the company.
Now Xiao Qian said that the named person should go to the practice room on the second floor to wait, which means that the named person has made his debut.
You can go to the second floor and enjoy the blue sky and white clouds that have been criticized by countless SM fans.
Xiao Qian ignored everyone's nervous and excited mood and began to read out expressionlessly.
"Lin Yuner..."
Yoona smiled, then tried her best to restrain herself, waved her hands to everyone, and went out quietly.
No one was surprised by her selection, so their emotions were relatively stable.
"Kim Taeyeon..."
It's another name that's not surprising, and the scene is fairly quiet.
"Jung Soo-yeon..."
Jessica ran away happily, leaving behind a bunch of envious eyes.
However, from the moment Jessica joined the company, her level was different from other trainees.
Others were admitted through the draft, but they were invited by talent scouts while walking on the street. Sometimes there is a big difference between being proactive and being passive.
"Kwon Yuli..."
"Xu Zhuxian..."
"Kim Hyoyeon..."
"Huang Meiying..."
"Lee Soon Kyu..."
"Cui Xiuying..."
There were fewer and fewer people in the practice room, and the scene became more and more empty. In the end, only Xu Canmei was left.
However, what she saw was that Xiao Qian had closed the list and the door to her hope.
Out of ten trainees, she was the only one who failed in the final selection.
At this moment, Xu Canmei's heart was almost bleeding. She wanted to ask angrily, why did she do this to herself?
But the fact has become reality, so what can we do if we ask?
Xiao Qian was about to leave, but in the corner of his eye he saw the girl trying not to cry. He thought about it and realized that he was still kindhearted.
"Xu Canmei, are you willing to listen to some advice from me?"
Xu Canmei wiped the corners of her eyes and hid Jingying in her palms.
"Director Nim, what do you want to say to me?"
Xiao Qian said frankly: "Actually, with your qualifications, it is difficult to get ahead as an artist, especially an idol. If you still want to engage in this industry, I suggest you try to be a choreographer. Although there is no such thing as being on stage.
Scenery and beauty, but more suitable for you."
After saying that, he left.
It's the limit for him to be able to give such advice to someone with whom he doesn't have much acquaintance.
As for whether Xu Canmei can obey or is unwilling to do so, that has nothing to do with him.
