Chapter 430 Chapter 427 Who is the real clown?
Chen Ya and others walked into the NIX training center and happened to see the Japanese trainees rehearsing.
There is a line from "The Queen of Kabukicho":
"After exiting the east exit of JR Shinjuku Station, there is my garden, the big playground Kabukicho..."
In fact, Shiina Ringo, a self-proclaimed "Shinjuku-based singer", had never been to Kabukicho Ichiban Street when he wrote this song.
At this moment, in this joyful place soaked in tears and alcohol, in the idol training center of the new era, the trainees use a liquid called sweat to give this place a new meaning of the era.
They jump, they swing, they stand firm.
At this moment, they are more like the queen of Kabukicho.
Although they are all men.
Yu Xiaoxiao covered her mouth:
"It turns out that there are so many trainees in the training center!"
"That's not all." said the talent scout who brought them here. "In our training center, there are 48 people who are still in the trainee stage, and this is only a small part of them."
"Where are the others?" Yu Xiaoxiao asked.
"A group of them have already started working in the business," the talent scout said, "and a few have asked for leave, such as Long Fan. That guy was eliminated and is still bedridden, haha!"
Qin Yunshang stretched out her finger and scratched the window of the dance practice room. She found that there was a layer of water vapor on the inner layer of the glass.
It should be caused by condensation of water vapor due to too much heat in the room.You can imagine how hard it is for these trainees.
"It's just like parts in a factory." Lu Chujiu whispered from the side.
Qin Yunshang smiled and asked, "What kind of business work are there in general?"
The talent scout on the side replied: "There are bars, road shows to promote, or underground small-scale commercial performances. They don't make much money, but for low-level idols, it is an important way of survival."
After saying that, he added: "Qin Weili and Long Fan, who you met before, are our top names here, and they are already quite popular in Japan."
Everyone nodded, having a new assessment of Qin Weili's strength.
Previously, after everyone from the program team played a simple game, they followed the program team's script and met a talent scout on the streets of Kabukicho.
A talent scout approached them and said that he wanted to discover them to become idols. After explaining clearly, both parties "suddenly realized" that the other party was actually their own family.
Later, the talent scout took the opportunity to invite them to the training center for a look.
So, they came here.
Of course, the above contents are all arranged scripts and are false.
The purpose is just to promote the company's overseas business and prepare for the return of these overseas idol groups to China.
The training in the dance studio was finally over. Looking at the trainees who were soaked in water, Yu Xiaoxiao said in a daze:
"With so many people...how many of them can actually debut and become idols?"
The talent scout shrugged and said, "Everyone is in and out. There is a lot of turnover. 80% of people can't wait until the day they become idols."
Lu Chujiu asked from the side: "How many people can really become famous?"
The talent scout said: "If you can say that you are a successful idol if you can hold a solo concert in a martial arts venue, then the success rate so far is still 0."
"..."
Lu Chujiu looked at these people silently, feeling as if he was seeing himself.
She also climbed up by stepping on a bunch of people, but the competition she faced was far less intense.
Qin Yunshang bit her lip on the side.
What she saw was not herself, but what she felt was a sense of crisis.
The Qin family creates idols, no wonder they want to move to Japan. This kind of competition intensity and control over trainees is not comparable in China.
Although there are no phenomenal idols yet, if these people can break into a world in the Japanese entertainment industry, they will definitely be able to squeeze out a large market after returning to China.
This is the cruelty of the entertainment industry. Everyone is working hard to gain more living space.
Qin Yunshang asked: "It must be difficult for Qin Weili and the others to get a chance to leave the country, right?"
The talent scout nodded: "Yes."
"However, they were eliminated just like that..." Yu Xiaoxiao murmured, then suddenly covered her face, "Suddenly I felt so guilty. The score I gave them may have ruined their dreams."
The talent scout smiled and said, "Don't think so. They have more than just this opportunity to leave the country. They also have other opportunities. Moreover, they can't blame you for being eliminated. They can only blame themselves for not being good at studying."
Everyone was lamenting that they had all gone through the trainee stage, so they could relate to each other, but Chen Ya asked from the side: "Is there a bathroom?"
The talent scout quickly pointed the way: "Turn left ahead and go to the end."
Chen Ya pointed to the ceiling and said, "The ceiling here is a bit cracked."
The talent scout looked up and wondered: "Really? I don't usually pay attention."
"Chen Liang!" Yu Xiaoxiao clenched her fists at the side, "Your focus is so strange! Everyone is lamenting that the trainees are pitiful, but you are focusing on the ceiling!"
"The suspended ceiling is also very pitiful." Chen Ya said.
"How pitiful is the suspended ceiling!"
Chen Ya shrugged.
Qin Yunshang and the others were saddened by spring and autumn, but he did not have such a leisurely mood.
He has no interest at all in this kind of so-called idol mass-produced on an assembly line.
A very deformed and cheap cultural product.
If these idols can be considered pitiful, wouldn't those leather-jacketed people who live broadcast on barrage websites be even more pitiable?
While Chen Ya was going to the bathroom, the talent scout took the opportunity to invite:
"The trainees are almost done practicing. They must really want to meet their idols. Do you want to go meet them?"
Everyone agreed and went to the dance practice room.
"Kabuki", pronounced kabuki in Japanese, actually means "tilt". It was also called Qingqi dance in the past.
The word "Kabuki" is a borrowed word, which is equivalent to the homophonic sound of "Kabuki". In fact, it does not refer to geisha, but a form of performance.
In ancient times, Japan liked to borrow Chinese characters because it would give people a "cooooool" feeling.
Later, most of the performers of kabuki were men, and they became a performing family, passed down from generation to generation, father to son.
Kabukicho itself has little to do with Kabuki.
The original intention of those who designed this urban area was to make it a cultural center.
As a result, it became the world-famous Flower Street.
Chen Ya checked his mailbox in the bathroom. There was silence, and there was still no news from Liulizi.
He had been in Japan for several days and still hadn't seen Liulizi, which was completely different from what he thought.
The news was also passed on to Kasahara. He was not worried that Kasahara would betray him, but he was worried that Kasahara was too timid to help him deliver the news.
In the message he asked Kasahara to help hand out, in addition to the "Old Place Contact" written on the surface, he also wrote a code word in invisible ink to tell Liulizi that he was participating in a live broadcast program.
He believed that as long as Liulizi watched the show, even if she made up her mind not to contact him, she would definitely not be able to help herself.
And Liulizi hasn't contacted him yet. Could it be that his news hasn't been conveyed yet?
Or is she still able to bear the extent of his current flirtation with girls?
In other words, do we need to...increase the intensity?
However, you must know that not only Liulizi is watching this show, but Gu Yuqing is also watching.
And Jiang Xinhai might be watching too!
In terms of jealousy, each of these three people is more difficult to deal with.
If he goes too far, that woman Jiang Xinhai might fly over on a plane. That woman is really capable of such a thing.
So, what to do now?
Chen Ya fell into deep thought.
……
At this time, the camera crew of the program had already followed Qin Yunshang and the others into the dance practice room.
The trainees were very excited when they saw them, and knew the girls' names by heart.
Obviously, they have all watched the live broadcast of "Idol Trainee".
Among all the people, Qin Yunshang is the most popular among these trainees.
This is not only because of her popularity, she is also good-looking and has an exaggerated figure. To these trainees, she is a goddess-level figure.
In the dance practice room, Qin Weili invited everyone to sit on the floor. After everyone sat down, Yu Xiaoxiao asked:
"Don't you have a chair?"
Qin Weili said with a smile: "The philosophy of the training center is 'continuous exercise', so there are no chairs for us in the training center. We have to stand or run and jump."
An unknown trainee next to him said: "I think this is pretty good. It can increase the amount of exercise and keep in shape."
"You guys are so crazy." Qin Yunshang couldn't help but sigh.
Hearing the goddess' praise, Qin Weili felt so happy that he continued:
"It's not all about working harder. Only with more sweat can we improve our business capabilities. This is nothing. Our training center..."
Qin Weili then told a bunch of stories similar to "Mein Kampf", which made several girls look pale.
After telling the story, Qin Weili sighed finally and said:
"It's a pity that despite trying so hard, I still couldn't go further on the stage."
Yu Xiaoxiao comforted: "It's okay, you have shown yourself on the stage, the audience will remember you." Qin Weili smiled miserably: "No, the audience is short-tempered, I will not be remembered How soon, if I don’t do something again, will it soon be forgotten.”
Everyone present was a trainee, and these words spoke directly to their hearts, and everyone was silent for a long time.
At this moment, Chen Ya came over.
Yu Xiaoxiao saw him and raised her hand to greet him: "Chen Liang! Come here quickly, these trainees are so fun."
Chen Ya walked over and scanned around. The seven or eight trainees in the dance practice room all looked over.
For some reason, Chen Ya felt that the eyes of these people seemed to be slightly hostile.
"Chen Liang," Qin Weili reached out to greet him, "come on, sit here."
He was quite a master, but his greeting was a bit shabby. Chen Ya did not sit where he indicated, but sat down next to Qin Yunchang.
Qin Yunshang squatted on the ground, hugging her long legs, which were wrapped in pearlescent black silk. She smelled delicious.
Chen Ya was happy to sit next to her.He didn't like sitting next to the trainees.The trainees were covered in sweat.
Qin Weili saw that he was sitting next to his goddess calmly, his nose twitched twice, and he felt a little unhappy.
The person behind who looked like a foreman said:
"The seniors in the idol industry are all here. Don't keep talking about how difficult it is for you. If you have any questions, take the opportunity to ask."
After saying this, the trainees suddenly became lively and raised their hands to ask questions.
Some asked Qin Yunshang why he wanted to be a trainee, and others asked Yu Xiaoxiao what was the most difficult thing about becoming a trainee.
We are all young people, so we are familiar with asking this question, and we cannot close the conversation once it is opened.
Not only did they take care of Qin and Yu, the trainees were also smart enough to bring Jin Lan and Lu Chujiu in, which made them flattered.
Only Chen Ya was left alone, wandering in his mind.
He was not from the same channel, and no one asked him anything.
While Chen Ya was wandering happily, a trainee suddenly spoke to him:
"Teacher Chen Liang, I would like to ask, did you start preparing for this competition a long time ago?"
Chen Ya woke up from his fugue and looked intently.
The person who asked him was a trainee with a side parted head. He had a pretty face, but his eyes were a little triangular, and he looked like he had evil intentions.
Chen Ya said: "No, why are you asking?"
The trainee said: "I think the program team will definitely not let you perform the music live, right? It should be the effect of the program."
This question was a bit sharp. The camera of the program crew was still pointed at him. Qin Weili next to him bumped him with his arm and said:
"Zang Da, please pay attention. What are you talking about?"
The trainee named Zang Da held Qin Weili down, feeling a little excited and said:
"Brother Li, please leave me alone. I have been holding back this question for a long time. I have to ask it today. Chen Liang, please answer me. Did you know about the arrangements for this program long in advance?"
Chen Ya was in a daze. He suddenly thought of something else. Looking at his reaction, he said thoughtfully:
"So what?"
When Zang Da heard this, he was completely ignited and said quickly:
"Did you know? Mr. Kamodaji was in a hurry when composing music for Brother Li and the others. He only received the notice two weeks in advance and wrote three songs in two weeks!"
Chen Ya asked with great interest: "What then?"
Qin Weili frowned, slapped him and said:
"Dazi, what are you talking about! It's all over, why are you still talking about this?"
Chen Ya waved his hand and said, "It's okay, just let him talk."
Zang Da was a little excited and said:
"I'm just a little bit aggrieved. I don't care if you think I'm stupid or something. I just want to help Brother Li and tell everyone that Kamoda-sensei really tried his best!"
He added: "I wrote three songs in two weeks, and the quality must be good or bad. At that time, Brother Li and the three of them agreed to draw lots. Brother Li said that he was the best at singing and dancing, so he rushed to sing the most difficult song. In fact, if you choose that song, you will eliminate half of it.”
He finally said: "So, I just want to ask you whether this is fair competition. Otherwise, I think Brother Li and the others are too unfair!"
Qin Weili pressed his head, but under the palm of his hand, his eyes secretly glanced at Chen Ya.
Although he said it was all over, he was still upset in his heart.
Who wouldn't be upset after being eliminated? Long Fan pretended to take a day off. Did he feel better?
To say that Zang Da is stupid, he is indeed stupid. Not only did he offend his opponent, he might also offend the program team.
However, for him, he was very confused.
If you can say this during the live broadcast, you will gain more sympathy from the audience.
Qin Yunshang and the others also turned their attention to Chen Ya at this time.
Yu Xiaoxiao was still immersed in the emotion of eliminating the two of them with her own hands, so naturally she did not dare to speak;
Qin Yunshang originally wanted to help smooth things over, but considering his status, he seemed to be the least qualified to discuss issues of fairness;
Lu Chujiu passed the test in the last round. It can be said that she has a vested interest, so it's hard to say anything.
There was only gold and blue, and she felt quite conflicted.
She originally hated Chen Ya with itch, but in this matter, it seemed that Chen Ya was indeed fine.
Chen Ya wrote the songs right under her nose. He wrote them in half an hour after returning home, very fast.
In short, everyone wanted to see Chen Ya's reaction.
After hearing this passionate accusation, Chen Ya just smiled.
This trainee seems to be asking questions, but also seems to be incompetent and furious.
He said to the trainee: "Then what if this matter is unfair? What are you going to do?"
Chen Ya asked, looking indifferent to his emotions, a bit like a villain.
Zang Da was stunned by this question. After a while, he blushed and said:
"There's nothing you can do. Just knowing this, Brother Li and the others can feel better."
"I feel like you're trying to pass the blame to your composer." Chen Ya said.
Zang Da's face turned even redder: "I didn't mean that!"
Another trainee behind him said: "Yes, that's right, don't sow discord. That's not what Zang Da means."
Qin Weili pursed his lips, but Zang Da was stupid. He was so easily betrayed that he felt anxious.
He considered it for a moment and said, "Of course Zang Da didn't say Teacher Kamoda was bad. If he said it was unfair, it would also be unfair to Teacher Kamoda."
After hearing this, Chen Ya said, "You also think it's unfair?"
Qin Weili didn't dare to express his position for a while.He was unconvinced, but in order not to offend anyone, he was too sarcastic to express himself, so he could only say carefully:
"I'm fine, but if Long Fan were here, he would definitely be in trouble again."
After saying that, he added: "If you lose, you lose. Of course I don't think there is anything wrong with Mr. Kamoda's composition. I just think the competition could have been fairer."
Chen Ya said: "The competition is indeed unfair. Your teacher Kamoda wrote three songs in two weeks. I calculated that it only took me a week to write and arrange these two songs."
After speaking, he smiled and said: "It's really unfair to me. So you still think it's unfair to yourself. I have no other understanding except that you are implying that the music written by Mr. Kamoda is not good."
Zang Da next to him found the flaw in his words, pointed at Chen Ya and said:
"You're talking nonsense! This show started a week ago. You said you wrote two songs a week. Didn't you know you were going to participate in the show?"
This time, before Chen Ya could speak, Yu Xiaoxiao next to him spoke:
"Uh... Chen Liang really doesn't know yet."
"Yes." Qin Yunshang said, "This show was originally scheduled for Guo Xiaoran to participate. Guo Xiaoran suddenly had something to do and couldn't come. Chen Liang was asked to participate overnight. He himself was very confused."
Yu Xiaoxiao pursed her lips and continued: "Others can't guarantee it, but Chen Liang must have written two songs in a week. He has never written a song before."
"..."
After listening, the Japanese trainees were speechless.
Kind of embarrassing.
I originally wanted to focus on the "unreasonable set-up of the program team" to highlight that Qin Weili's performance was not bad.
I didn't expect this performance, my face was not covered and my butt was leaking out.
They are wronged here, but Chen Liang is even more wronged than they are!He was really hired temporarily to take over the job.
The barrage in the live broadcast room also laughed like crazy.There were a lot of barrages, and then I realized that the show crew was serious about it, and I was shocked on the spot.
"I thought it was all a show effect before, but I didn't expect that I actually wrote the music on the spot?"
"No, Chen Liang should be the only one who wrote the music on the spot, because he was the replacement and didn't know he was going to participate before."
"Who says he didn't know before? Do you dare to say that he pushed Guo Xiaoran down without knowing it?"
"Are you crazy! Chen Liang has never written songs before, how can he plan to overthrow Guo Xiaoran by himself?"
"It's so funny that these trainees are still here crying miserably, and Chen Liang didn't say anything. From this comparison, it's clear who is the real clown."
……
At this moment, a deep voice came from behind:
"There's no point in asking him this. Is there any difference if he writes his songs in a week or in a month?"
Thanks to the anonymous reader for the reward~
I felt really unwell yesterday and stayed at home all day. This is the only chapter I have left for today. Sorry.
