against the wind

Famous brands moved on site, otherwise those Korean photographers would not know us, and the stage effects would be ugly when the photos are taken. "

You Changjing smiled wryly and sighed, saying I know, but I must go to Lin Chaoze's birthday party.

Lin Yanjun stopped talking, but actually he wanted to go too.He looked at You Changjing's tired face, and thought of how this person was dug out of the bed by his assistant in the morning, without even asking, he knew that he must have chatted with Lin Chaoze all night last night.

"Don't think so much, let's finish the rehearsal of the stage first. See if you can find a way to catch up with the situation before midnight. If it doesn't work, let Sister Na help us and the director team take a leave. From here In the past, it was close, and it only took about two hours, so there should be no problem."

"Well, good. Then I'll ask Li Ruotian to find a way to delay the scene for a little longer, and we'll rush over here after the rehearsal is over."

Youth is always very beautiful.

Many people spend their whole lives thinking about the struggle time when they were young. They miss the time and also miss each other who fought together and accompanied each other at that time.

Banana nine sons, together it is a ball of fire, scattered it is a sky full of stars.

Even though the troops are divided into two groups, they still look forward to the day when the top will meet.

"If you were scoring the team today, your team would be the highest score." On December 2017, 12, when "Idol Trainee" met for the first time, Zhang PD gave them such a comment.

From South Korea's HOT, TVXQ, SUPERJUNIOR to BIG stick and EXO, or Japan's Johnny.Successful idol products come from a mature industrial system.This system includes the selection and training of trainees, matching content production and packaging, and it is under the comprehensive operation of such a system that the brokerage company can continue to provide the market with reproducible idol products.

As a platform for earlier batches of trials in China, Banana Entertainment has been extremely dedicated to the cultivation of TRAINEE18.All teachers are recruited from overseas, and there are learning courses in all aspects of sound, stage, body, appearance, including make-up and modeling.Each month is equipped with a strict assessment competition system, and all those who are unqualified or lack preparation will be eliminated at any time.Sometimes when the mood is good, the so-called principal Wang Sicong will sit down to watch the assessment of each trainee in person.

This made them not too unfamiliar with the matter of assessment + elimination before participating in "Idol Trainee".

Before receiving the invitation to the program "Idol Trainee", You Changjing had just been sick.

That day, he and Qiu Zhixie were practicing in the music classroom when they heard Lu Dinghao's bluffing from far and near.In fact, Banana Iron Triangle also has a name that has been only circulated internally but has never been publicized outside: music teacher You Changjing, dance teacher Lin Chaoze, and funny teacher Lu Dinghao.

At this moment, Lu Dinghao, their famous banana drama star, stalker, Kangxi tenth-level scholar, and funny teacher Lu Dinghao once again lived up to expectations.

Lu Ding Hao: "Hurry up, Jiang Bin, vice president of iQIYI, has come to the company!!"

You, with a calm face, Chang Jing: "Oh."

Qiu Zhixie with a normal face: "Oh."

Lu Dinghao pointed at the two people across from him heartbroken, so angry that the sesame paste in his hand was trembling constantly.You Changjing hurriedly jumped up to support him, muttering, "Sin, sin, Jing Zuo just came to clean it, and he has to come and nag again when it gets dirty. Hold on tight, don't shake! "Lu Dinghao miraculously stopped shaking his hands, because now he was so angry that he just wanted to confuse You Changjing's face, but he couldn't say anything.

"Jiang Jingzuo is cleaning instead of singing and dancing?" Lu Dinghao frowned and complained, and You Changjing successfully shifted the focus of entering the door.

"Jing Zuo ordered takeaway with Lin Yanjun. Lin Yanjun was punished for running, and he did the cleaning." Qiu Zhixie came up to answer Lu Dinghao's questions, and pointed to Lin Yanjun who was running along the building outside the window.

Lu Dinghao laughed hahahaha for a long time, and You Changjing was afraid that he would laugh at him and choke himself, and would knock out the sesame paste when he was done, so he fixed his eyes on him.As soon as Lu Dinghao stretched out his hand, he turned his face to another place, and said in a serious tone, "Why are you staring at me with your big Kazilan eyes? Don't discharge me and I will tell you." You Changjing was speechless, Lin Yanjun Because ordering food delivery almost catches up with the marathon, everyone has long been familiar with it, but this person in front of him can never get tired of laughing every time.

It wasn't until later that he realized that some people are born to be at odds with each other, but only true and false mutual hatred can achieve another comfortable way of getting along with each other.

"Okay, didn't you just say that some kind of president came over? Did you stop talking? If you don't talk about it, I'm going to continue training."

"Say it, I was going to say it, who told you to divert my words."

Just like Lu Dinghao couldn't bear You Changjing's staring eyes at him, Lu Dinghao's unique fatal coquettish You Changjing also expressed that he couldn't bear it.

"Jiang Bin is the vice president of iQIYI. I heard that he is going to shoot a new program called "Idol Trainee" and he will be the chief producer himself. He came this time to let the trainees of our company Go to his new show."

In September 17, Jiang Bin gathered the chief director of "Happy Boys" Chen Gang and the caviar team to join the production of "Idol Trainee".After that, he personally visited 9 performing arts companies across the country, including Huayi, Mai Rui, Lehua, Awakening East, etc., and wanted to select excellent trainees to participate in the recording of "Idol Trainees".Naturally, this is the purpose of this visit to Banana.

"I heard that the lineup of mentors is not bad, and there is some attention. Tell me, can we succeed this time?"

"The company doesn't necessarily want us to go, there are so many people. But don't worry, I think there will be you."

"You are so confident. If you have me, you must be there. If you don't go, then I won't go either."

……

"Lu Dinghao, are you...really sure you don't like me...?"

……

……

"I said, can you two still see that I'm alive?" Qiu Zhixie pointed at himself expressionlessly.

Lu Dinghao and You Changjing looked at each other when they heard the words, and walked away tacitly, holding back their smiles.

You Changjing slowly walked back to the front of the piano and continued the practice just now.And Lu Dinghao held his own sesame paste, walked out of the door for a second, and immediately walked back to Qiu Zhixie's side, pointed to You Changjing and said that that guy just had the needle in his throat two days ago, you don't want to look at him Let him practice for too long and then wave his sleeves and walk away gracefully.

Qiu Zhixie slammed the sheet music angrily!

From a trainee to an idol, how far do you have to go?

Later, You Changjing also thought about it, if he was born with peaceful years, there would be no so many encounters and partings.Maybe he will be satisfied with the stability in this world, and watch the long stream of water in a plain way.

The end of 2017 seems to be a little more lively than previous years.

On December 12th, the silver-gray vehicles moved forward little by little along the traces left by Christmas on the street, and the scenery on both sides kept receding. The suburbs are particularly eye-catching.

Nine bouncing teenagers got out of the car with extraordinary vigor, looking very excited at the building in front of them.At that time, they didn't know that in the future, batch after batch of young girls would come to this place, look at the building in front of them with an even more excited state of mind and shout: "Oh my god! It’s Langfang Dachang! Oh my god! It’s full-time! Oh my god! Babe! Babe!!”

Following the instructions of the staff, they walked into the separately separated waiting room and waited in line for recording in order.

Lin Chaoze, Lin Yanjun, Qiu Zhixie, Gao Maotong, Li Ruotian, Bei Luolin, Jiang Jingzuo, Lu Dinghao, and You Changjing.Nine people were finally determined to be candidates for "Idol Trainee" before coming to Beijing.

From Shanghai to Beijing, although the program team has tried every means to keep it secret, they have been arranged to stay in different hotels according to people from different companies.However, the omnipotent online world still allowed them to know in advance a very few of the 1000 trainees selected from more than 100 trainees.Such as Qin Fen, such as the little ghost Zhu Xingjie, such as Zhu Zhengting Justin, such as Cai Xukun, such as Fan Chengcheng.

100 people, 31 companies, and 8 individual trainees.

Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, each show their skills in the meeting of wind and cloud.

The competition for [-]% is a challenge as well as growth.

"Chinese culture is always different from Japan and South Korea. Under the strict hierarchical system of Japan and South Korea, they lack a kind of timely feedback, so a lot of practice time is actually wasted in mechanized self-training. But this is not the case in China, All our teachers, related personnel and trainee artists will be together 24 hours a day. Any problems can be corrected at any time, and everyone can have business discussions on an equal footing. We need to create our own idols to start the first year of idols in Greater China Possibly.” Before they set off, the company’s CEO Gao Xiang played Jiang Bin’s words to them.

Since ancient times, when the conflict of interest has not been triggered, businessmen will also have feelings.

Even though they are doing entertainment business and creating idol products.But at this time, Gao Xiang still believed that the children who came out of their bananas were commodities, but they were also family members.They do not deny that they hope to gain benefits from these children, but they are really working hard to realize their dreams.

It's just that if the world can only stay at the stage where everything is still good, then perhaps many stories in the future will not have side effects.

It's just that if I knew it earlier, it would be such a thin and cold word.

Nowadays, the harmonious atmosphere of the whole company and the group makes the whole team have a strong cohesion.

It also allowed the members of this team to develop the habit of taking care of each other.Even if they were assigned to different groups in the end, they would all try their best to use their strengths to help others, and they would not hide any secrets.

despair.

despair.

despair.

The unseen clock in the upper left corner of the recording studio is turning non-stop.

From the moment the camera was turned on to when it was turned off, the first recording of iQiyi's "Idol Trainee" lasted all night.

After waiting and waiting, the nine children of 18/[-] TRAINEE[-] gathered in the waiting room and were still full of energy and arguing non-stop.For a while, I was looking forward to what Zhang Yixing’s brother would be like, for a while I was discussing whether Mr. Li Ronghao’s eyes are really small, and for a while I wanted to ask Mr. Ouyang Jing for an autograph... twittering like nine little sparrows. The clothes that Cody prepared for them that day were also very uniform black and white.The gossiping staff members exchanged and discussed their thoughts with each other in a low voice, saying that they really look like little sparrows, very cute and extremely noisy.

"Next group, Banana Entertainment."

Taking a deep breath, Lin Chaoze puffed up his chest as the captain and led a group of little sparrows out on the triangular passageway full of lights, thus taking the first step on the road of Banana Nine Puppet training.

"Hi everyone, we are Banana Entertainment TRAINEE18."

Neat and neat, after greeting the nine people, they also began to choose seats.Banana entered the arena at the back, except for a few vacant seats at the top, almost all the seats below were filled with people here and there.

Like Lehua, Kunyin, Awakening Dongfang, etc., there are almost groups coming together, and everyone seems to not think too much about which seat they want to choose to sit in.In the same way, the people in Banana subconsciously went to see where there were still connected seats.

Of course, in the end they should be so. They didn't find a place where the nine chairs were all next to each other, so they could only choose to sit on two sides.

Lin Chaoze took Lin Yanjun, Bei Luolin and others to find a seat from the right and sat down, while You Changjing, Lu Dinghao and Qiu Zhixie naturally walked up to the left.

On one side of the two positions, there is one position left in the middle, Liang Hui.Qiu Zhixie resigned to his fate and sighed cowardly. He consciously went to sit in the seat alone, and then stretched his neck to see Lu Dinghao and You Changjing chatting passionately across Liang Hui.

Yep, let out another sigh.

Not long after sitting down, the seat selection process for the remaining groups of people has also been completed, and the grade assessment officially begins after the instructor enters the venue.

The atmosphere was suddenly different from the laughing and joking look just now.

As the first group of trainees, Mai Rui Entertainment shocked the audience with three D and three F results.

Before these children came to participate in the program, some of them mustered up the courage to set off again to realize their dreams and made sufficient preparations. Naturally, some of them came here with a muddled attitude as a game.But after the rating of the first group, they found that they seemed to be too frivolous and underestimated the show.

The grade assessment is still going on in an orderly manner.

The trainees have finished most of the performance, but they still don't have an A grade. When the recording was in the middle, the instructor and the program team became a little anxious.But we can't lower the standard arbitrarily to make ends meet, otherwise there will be a big deviation in the positioning and quality of this program in the future.It wasn't until Cai Xukun appeared on the stage wearing a blue coat with a sexy fishnet that the instructor's complexion gradually improved.

In 1998, the young man, after performing his own creative single sexy and confidently, turned out to be very shy.He stood in the middle of the stage nervously, no matter how hard he tried to keep himself calm, he couldn't hide the tension and anticipation on his face.It is undeniable that this is already his third trainee experience.Whether he was a candidate member of TFBOYS in Times Fengjun, or debuted as a member of the boy group SWIN in "Star Action Asia", in the end he failed to perform well on stage as he wished.

In order to be able to participate in this program, he has paid a lot under pressure.

At this time, You Changjing was sitting in the audience watching Cai Xukun's performance very intently.

Before coming to "Idol Trainee", he had actually heard of the name Cai Xukun.This circle is like this, the wind will always blow through every corner inadvertently.Although they don't pay attention deliberately, as long as they are a little bit famous, they won't be ignored.

Looking at Cai Xukun's expression, he suddenly thought of how he felt when he stood on the stage for the first time.

On his thin face, the two diametrically opposed emotions of profundity and clarity were miraculously harmonious in his eyes.Just like his whole person, he seems soft and innocent, but he has a transparent and open-minded maturity.

"Cai Xukun, the first A grade tonight."

He looked at him, with a youthful appearance under the age of 20.Suddenly remembered, I seem to be my brother.

So he smiled happily and bent his eyebrows.

五

Stories aren't always complete.

Although we all shined separately later, I still remember the original appearance of you and me.

The waiting room before Banana Nine went on stage was still bustling with activity.Lin Chaoze took Jiang Jingzuo to the side and constantly reviewed the dance moves; Qiu Zhixie, the old lady in the group, took a bottle of anti-slip spray and sprayed the soles of the members one by one; Encouraging his younger brother Gao to be expressionless and nervous as always, while Li Ruotian chattered beside him to make his expression not too stiff; Lin Yanjun and Bei Lulin looked calm, but they were also quietly remembering Rap Ci; in the corner, Lu Dinghao grabbed You Changjing and asked him to drink two more sips of water quickly.At this moment, he was annoyed that he had secretly hidden two buns, but he couldn't show them to You Changjing in front of the camera.

In fact, the fact that You Changjing often fell ill after losing weight still made Lu Dinghao very concerned.

The human body is very strange, it needs balance just like the biological world.When its conservation law is intentionally or unintentionally broken, it will automatically enter into regulation.

You Changjing ate a diet meal at the company for a year, and finally became a slender, fair and eye-catching sweetheart.The price he paid, apart from the food, was that his body's resistance was no longer so strong.

It was at a dinner party after the recording of "Born Is You", You Changjing realized that he could no longer eat crayfish, and the turbulent allergic reaction made him seriously ill.That illness not only scared Lu Dinghao and Lin Chaoze to death that he was going to be disfigured, but also made him clearly feel that when he sang high notes, his chest had to work harder to reach the previous level.

After that, if the weather changes and you are tired, you will inevitably catch a cold. His daily necessities, including the bed and quilt, must be the ones he is used to. Ignore the danger of allergies and eat crayfish without fear of death.

After watching him drink the water bit by bit, Lu Dinghao still frowned and thought worriedly, it should be no problem to be able to sing high notes later.Although before they entered the arena, the staff from the company never ate a lot in order to keep their faces looking good, but he should drink the cup of sesame paste that he secretly stuffed him in the morning, at worst, after singing and leaving the stage Let him quickly eat the bun.

"Banana Entertainment, ready to play."

The staff started cueing them on standby.

The bright teenagers who were originally full of confidence finally seemed a little flustered at this moment.You Changjing stood in the corner, looking at everyone with a smile. "Hey, stop for a moment..." Several people turned their heads to look at him in unison.I saw that graceful and gentle young man bent over with a smile, tilted his curly-haired little head at a playful angle, and looked at everyone seriously.

"I love you."

Regarding the matter of love, the Chinese who have always advocated a graceful style seem to always not know how to express it outwardly.But on that day, a Malaysian sweetheart who came from a long way across the ocean, just like this, brought the timeless warmth and firmness to everyone in an understatement, and also gave them enough trust and peace of mind to share the warmth and comfort.

"You are far stronger than you think. Human beings are creatures that can survive despite no hope."

The selected song "Let the World Destroy", which was decided before I came to practice, actually took a lot of ingenuity and ambition.

After the company determined the final list for going to the North, the nine bananas gathered together every day to use a practice room alone, laughing and joking while training.

"Choose nine people, isn't that the nine of us?" "Go, go, you think the show is run by your family." Poor talk is inevitable, and the determination to go to the end together is also very serious.

"Hey, you said, if everyone else is singing hard songs and dancing, then let's do the opposite, how about standing quietly and singing a slow song?"

"But will this make others think that we can't dance? That's not good, or let's dance another part after singing."

It hits it off.

As the only team performance that Zhang PD recognized the most in the audience, Banana Nine's stage not only condensed the soul of the group but also seemed to have a tacit understanding. Both singing and dancing were excellent.

Sitting in the audience, Qin Fen watched TRAINEE18's performance carefully, and couldn't help sighing in his heart, "It's very explosive, very well organized, like a team that has debuted for a long time." Zhang Yixing, who was the final scorer, was obviously the most popular among all of them. It's a headache, because he doesn't know how he should rate the team is the most appropriate.

After finishing Lin Chaoze's A grade, the name "You Changjing" lingered on his lips for a long time.

Zhang Yixing looked at the feedback given by Teacher Li Ronghao, and You Changjing was written in a big column in the A column.But all I could think of in my mind were You Changjing's high-pitched high-pitched and beautifully sung two sections.Some people are like this. When one aspect is too prominent, it is always easy for people to overlook his excellence in another aspect.

And You Changjing's singing ability often makes people forget that he can also dance very well.

After thinking about it, Zhang Yixing said: "There are B-level ones, You Changjing."

He bowed and said calmly, "Thank you teacher."

After stepping down, You Changjing did not follow the members backstage.He said hello and walked towards the bathroom.The others were a little worried about him. After all, they all knew that if they were together day and night, in terms of strength alone, even if all the male and female trainees in the entire banana were taken together, You Changjing's comprehensive strength was undoubtedly second to none. Be the first.

Just as Lin Chaoze raised his foot to follow him up, he was pulled back by Lu Dinghao.

"It's okay, let him stay alone for a while. Let's go to the preparation room first. I heard that there will be interviews."

When their eyes met, Lin Chaoze suddenly understood.

He laughs at himself, but cares about it.

How could a guy like You Changjing be easily defeated.
