Chapter 298: Extra 4: The Talent Show Controversy
In the H TV talent show training room, dozens of young trainees were crowded inside, dancing and sweating profusely. The PD saw that everyone could not hold on any longer, so he asked everyone to stop and rest for a few minutes.
Sherry, the trainee agent of M Company, rushed forward and gathered several trainees of M Company together to give them a lecture.
"You are the only ones in our company who have passed the selection, but you still work harder and cherish this opportunity that others would rather miss. You are looking at me and thinking that I don't know your little thoughts. If you can't make it this time, you will have another chance in the next talent show. Little do you know that there is a huge gap between one talent show and another! Not to mention that there is no platform with the influence of H Satellite TV now..."
Sherry lowered her voice, fearing that trainees from other companies might overhear her.
"The latest news from the company is that the lineup of mentors this time is extraordinary. The program team has made great efforts to invite Qin Xi!"
"Qin Xi?!" Several teenagers exclaimed subconsciously.
"Keep your voice down!" Sherry scolded softly, "H TV even invited Qin Xi, which shows how much importance they attach to the talent show. I don't need to tell you how valuable Qin Xi is. If you can win her favor and get film and television resources, it can be considered a real debut! You all know the pros and cons, so just rely on your own abilities!"
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the environment for singers in the domestic entertainment industry is getting worse and worse. Many record companies have closed down one after another, while film and television companies are making huge profits. Becoming an actor is the best way out!
As soon as Sherry finished speaking, the impatient teenagers looked at each other with hostility in their eyes. The dozens of people selected from the vast army were not easy to deal with. In order to compete for the 7 debut positions, brothers became enemies.
Yu Ran was quickly pushed aside by the teenagers who surrounded Sherry to ask for details. He quietly walked to the corner to train. After such a long period of preliminary selection, the little dream of becoming a star in Yu Ran's heart had been almost exhausted. He had no family background, no special skills, and most importantly, he couldn't lick. He advanced to the finals purely by relying on his face, but how could he succeed in the entertainment industry by relying on his face alone?
He could tolerate being placed in the corner every time he lined up, but when he heard that several debut spots had already been decided, he was disappointed. Alas, he was just a stepping stone, at best, a beautiful one.
Qin Xi? Yu Ran shook his head. It was too far away for him. Fortunately, he didn't sign a fixed contract with the company. After this talent show, it might be a good idea for him to go home and find a stable class.
Thinking of this, Yu Ran practiced even harder. Since it was the last stage, he should not leave any regrets for himself!
-
The intense drum beats on the stage came to an abrupt end, and the flashing neon lights also stopped. The brightly dressed teenagers panted and made their final pose, trying to maintain their most charming smiles.
There were very respectful cheers from the audience. Qin Xi, who was sitting in the C position of the guest seats, looked very calm. After all, she had seen too many excellent talent shows in her previous life, and she was not amazing now. But she was not here to watch the performance today. Her eyes were fixed on the person she wanted to find.
Mo Rou, who was standing next to her, saw that Qin Xi's eyes were always attracted by the stage, and she was surprised that she was quite interested. As the originator of the talent show industry and a representative of talent show singers who transformed into actors, Mo Rou began to comment first, and the singer mentor next to her followed suit.
The quality of this performance was really not so good that they could appreciate it from the bottom of their hearts, so when the program team told them who to support, they just tactfully commented and praised the performance, adding a bit of personal touch, making it funny and interesting, and they completed their mission.
Of course, the production team did not mention this task to Qin Xi. They were already flattered that Qin Xi agreed to participate. If she was disgusted and turned to be a judge for the other team, they would be in tears. After all, wherever Qin Xi sat, the ratings were guaranteed. This was proven by [Spring Day Departure] that year. The ratings of [Spring Day Departure], which was the same the next year, were far lower than those of [Spring Day Departure], which had a lot of quarrels and dramas.
Several mentors had finished their speeches and were just waiting for Qin Xi to make the final speech.
Qin Xi pointed and said, "I think the player on the far left is good."
Qin Xi said this lightly, and all eyes on and off the stage were focused on her. Yu Ran could hardly believe that he, who had been blocked the whole time, would be cueed. The one who cue him was Qin Xi, the biggest star of the show. When the camera was pointed at his face, he was still dazed.
"Yes, it's you. What's your name?"
Oh my god! Qin Xi is talking to me! Yu Ran's heart was beating like a drum, and he tried hard to control himself so that his voice would not tremble so much.
"My name is Yu Ran, Yu means universe, and Ran means leisurely."
Qin Xi nodded, "I think your eyes are very beautiful, and they tell stories..."
Then he suddenly smiled and said, "You give me the same feeling as Teacher Gu when he was a child. I think you should act instead of singing and dancing!"
Who is Teacher Gu? Haha, when Gu Chenxing was revealed to be the only son of Gu Lishen, it went viral. Soon after, he and Qin Xi officially announced their relationship, which caused a huge discussion that paralyzed many social media platforms. Now that Qin Xi is so affectionate and casual about Teacher Gu, who else could it be?
The director was overjoyed. Qin Xi was indeed good at finding topics!
After Qin Xi and Gu Chenxing officially announced their relationship, the number of views of [Set Off in Spring] doubled. This time, if we just cut Qin Xi's words into the trailer, wouldn't it be a sure-fire traffic secret?
What's this kid's name? Yu Ran, you're really lucky, Qin Xi picked you, let's add another debut position~
-
"Xixi, so many programs have invited you to be a judge or mentor in the past, but you never agreed. Why did you change your mind this time?" Mo Rou and Qin Xi held hands and asked with a smile.
"Didn't Sister Meng and I just open a company? We can't push all the business to Sister Meng alone. I have to help look for people as well."
"So you've chosen that kid named Yu Ran? I don't think he's anything special that warrants your high praise. Aren't you afraid that your husband will be jealous?" Mo Rou teased.
"Don't you believe my vision?"
Qin Xi raised her eyebrows and smiled. She participated in this program just for Yu Ran! Although he is mediocre now, he will be a new generation of fault traffic in a few years. Qin Xi has been filming less and less in the past two years. She also knows that the bonus era of the entertainment industry will soon be over. It is too risky to invest in projects at this time. It is better to invest in people. Of course, she must take advantage of Yu Ran's obscurity to win this big golden egg!
"As for him, being jealous is good for your health~"
Mo Rou smiled and sighed, "When Mu Fei and I broke up, many people said they didn't believe in love anymore. When you and Gu Chenxing officially announced your relationship, everyone believed it again. There were many people who predicted your relationship would fail, but I didn't expect that after all these years, your relationship is still so good. After all, it was his perseverance that made it happen. It's different."
"You and Mu Fei?"
"We both have strong personalities, so there's no way we can separate..."
Qin Xi sighed. It was common for couples in the entertainment industry to break up and get back together, but she and Gu Chenxing were really an exception. She had lived her life again, so she was more tolerant than others; because of his parents, Gu Chenxing also knew how to love better than others. The two of them unexpectedly got along well. Although they were inevitably apart due to work, both of them would try their best to make time to get together, and they would cherish every time they got together.
Thinking of Gu Chenxing, Qin Xi felt warm in her heart. He will come today~
But this time Gu Chenxing was obviously not happy. What happened? Qin Xi's eyes rolled, and she remembered that someone had taken a video of Gu Chenxing getting angry on the show and uploaded it to the Internet, which became a hot search.
"What's wrong? Are you unhappy recording the program? Why are you taking it so seriously?"
Gu Chenxing was furious when he mentioned this. This was an acting competition variety show. The production team was quite sincere and said that the mentors could not all be veteran actors. There must be a young actor in charge, and it had to be him. Qin Xi was also invited to the show, but Qin Xi chose the talent show. Gu Chenxing thought it was fresh and interesting, so he took it.
"What a shame! The production team insisted on scheduling a segment from [The Legend of Yan Qing]. I told the young people that they couldn't handle it and to replace them, but the production team didn't listen. What happened? What they scheduled was garbage. It's totally unwatchable. It's a complete waste of your character!"
Qin Xi laughed, "Of course we have to choose classic films for the show rehearsal. Besides, you'll be commenting on the roles I've played, and you'll be comparing young actors with me. How can the show crew miss this opportunity to take advantage of the popularity?"
"How can that young guy compare to you?!" Gu Chenxing blurted out, "The acting skills of young actors nowadays are getting worse and worse. When you played Yan Qing, you were only in your early twenties. Sigh..."
Gu Chenxing couldn't help but lament for the industry, and suddenly remembered how Qin Xi had led him astray? He was not angry about this at all!
"Ahem, you're on the trending search list today too!"
"Ah?" Qin Xi opened his phone and took a look.
[Qin Xi selected young and handsome men in the talent show]
Qin Xi's eyes went dark. The speed of H TV was beyond imagination, but this gimmick was too weird.
Looking at Gu Chenxing's obviously sulking face, Qin Xi burst out laughing. Xiaorou was right!
"Jealous?"
Gu Chenxing's mouth curled even more, and he said angrily, "You said he looks like me!"
Qin Xi teased, "It's his blessing to be somewhat like you!"
Gu Chenxing became even sadder, "You think he looks like me┭┮﹏┭┮"
Qin Xi quickly comforted him, "Actually, no, isn't it? The company has just been established and is in urgent need of talent. I think he is a good candidate, so I plan to sign him to build momentum in advance~"
Gu Chenxing's expression looked better now. In fact, he knew it was just hype, but he just wanted to take advantage of the situation to let Qin Xi express her love for him. It was also his way of secretly expressing his love.
How could Qin Xi not understand him? "Why do you have such a sense of crisis?"
Gu Chenxing muttered, "Of course, who doesn't like young and beautiful people?"
Tsk tsk, so sour!
Qin Xi straightened up, pinched her waist and looked at him, "Then why don't you serve me well, or I will get upset and banish you to the cold palace~"
The two looked at each other and couldn't help but burst out laughing.
After living a new life, Qin Xi finally experienced the taste of happiness, and the happiness continued...
