Heaven’s Greatest Plan - Chapter 12
The trainee contract between Zhao Yu and Muyi Entertainment expires in August.
This year passed faster than she expected. Until the end, Jiang Yu and Jiang Lei did not wait for the children from their family to give up halfway, and they didn’t know whether they were happy or worried for a while.
The child suddenly became so good, wouldn’t it be dropped? !
Before the contract officially ended, Yang Jie called Jiang Yu.
Zhao Yu’s strength and potential have been obvious to all over the past year. Now that the nominal contract is over, Mu Yi naturally wants to sign someone in his hand.
Jiang Yu only smiled and declined: “I am not her agent. She has to decide what kind of path she wants to take next. As parents, we can only advise from the side.”
Muyi Entertainment is a company that says it’s not big, but it’s not small. If Zhao Yuzhen wants to go this way, Jiang Yu selfishly hopes that she can contract with the big companies Zhongxia, Huachang and Xingyao.
Zhao Yu was stuck in the training, leaving early and returning late every day, or when he was called by Han Shuang at the end of the month, did he remember that his contract was about to expire.
Han Shuang’s impression of her nowadays is not what she used to be, and with Yang Jie’s relationship, she is also caring for her on weekdays. Zhao Yu’s rapid progress this year has something to do with her own hard work, and of course it is also inseparable from Mu Yi’s unselfish all-round training.
So when Han Shuang talked about contract renewal, Zhao Yu did not reject it.
But she also knew that this kind of matter could not be decided easily. After Han Shuang finished speaking, she thoughtfully replied, “I have to ask the family’s opinion first.”
Han Shuang didn’t seem to be surprised by this answer, and smiled at her, took out a document from the drawer and pushed it over.
Zhao Yu glanced suspiciously and heard her say: “Our company has been cooperating with Han Yu, right?”
The reason why Mu Yi’s trainee model is so mature is that it has cooperated with Korean brokerage companies and introduced their templates in an all-round way. The girl group that Mu Yi launched before had a Korean entertainment team in the production team, so once it was launched, it gained a firm foothold in China.
Before they were in class, a teacher from South Korea also came to teach. Lin Zhinan and the others also joked that they had hired a foreign teacher.
Zhao Yu didn’t know why she said this suddenly, and nodded.
Han Shuang smiled and pointed to the document: “Open it and take a look.”
Zhao Yu opened the document and saw a line written on the title page: “ShiningStars” live variety show plan.
This is a live audition variety show co-produced by Mu Yi and Han Yu. Its audition theme is trainees, and the purpose is to launch a Chinese and Korean women’s team that focuses on the Korean market.
Variety shows are not uncommon, and this is currently the hottest way for idols to debut.
But its novelty is that this draft is conducted through live broadcast from start to finish, and it lasts for six months.
From the moment the selected trainees enter the training camp, their practice content and daily life will be recorded by the camera and broadcast live to the audience.
Everyone will witness your efforts and progress, your joys, angers and sorrows. Voting will be conducted in real time, the ranking will be refreshed every day, and finally, the top 50 will make their debut.
A brand new, bold, entertaining and mentally-developed draft game that is the first ever to try live broadcast for half a year.
This kind of draft is unprecedented, full of unknowns and challenges.
After looking through the documents, Zhao Yu guessed Han Shuang’s intentions and raised his head to ask: “Sister Han, do you want me to participate in this draft?”
Han Shuang smiled and shook his head: “It’s not that I don’t want you to go, but whether you want to go.”
Zhao Yu was silent for a moment.
Han Shuang didn’t rush, and waited for her to think for a while before smiling and saying, “I’ve discussed with the teachers, and they all said that you already have the strength to debut, but having strength is not the same as making your debut. , The difference lies in their respective opportunities. At present, the domestic traffic market is so big, with a mixture of fish and dragons. Every company is constantly introducing new ones every year. How many people are short-lived, and how many people can stand up? And to say something bad, this Female idols are more difficult to walk than male idols. Even if you are debuting in China, how long and how can you be sure of your popularity?”
Yes, in the current domestic traffic market, the top five in the data list are all male stars.
Shen Junyi turned out, Horch’s rising star, newcomers Li Yao and Xia Yuan have been active in the audience’s attention, and the popular female idol column is still empty so far.
With her current strength and conditions, she can indeed make her debut.
But she wanted more than just a debut.
If she can’t meet at the top, she can only look up all the time.
What she wants is a close match.
Han Shuang looked at the silent girl like a gentle elder, not urging or persecuting, but telling the pros and cons one by one.
“You should also be aware that Korean Entertainment is currently more developed than the domestic market, and its market is larger. Its operating methods and star-making methods are very mature. Within half a year after participating in this variety show, you will receive more professional training, and You can gain a certain popularity through this live broadcast. Even if you fail to make your debut in the end, these popularity will become your capital after returning to your country. But we cannot deny that participating in this live broadcast will be very hard. Once you enter the training camp, you will have it within half a year. There will be no secrets, everything will be exposed to the attention of the audience. The training intensity will be greater, and no mistake can be made. Any behavior may be amplified and become your black spot.”
In the end, Han Shuang smiled and said: “Opportunities and risks coexist, it depends on how you choose.”
Zhao Yu pinched the document and looked at the line “ShiningStars” on the title page. It took him a long time before he raised his head and asked, “Sister Han, what did you do before?”
Han Shuang was stunned: “Me? I used to do marketing.”
Zhao Yu: “No wonder, good eloquence…”
Han Shuang was amused by her.
She really likes Zhao Yu and hopes to keep her for the company. To participate in this live broadcast of the draft, she must sign with Mu Yi. The pros and cons have been clearly stated, and it depends on how she chooses.
But when she looked at the little bit of light in the girl’s eyes, Han Shuang felt that she had succeeded.
Zhao Yu did not immediately agree, holding the contract and said: “Sister Han, I still want to discuss with my parents first, can I give you an answer tomorrow?”
Han Shuang smiled and said, “Okay, don’t worry, don’t have any pressure. Life will face many choices, as long as each choice lives up to the original intention.”
Zhao Yu smiled and nodded.
Jiang Yu recently took a rest at home, and it happened that there was no class on Saturday. Zhao Yu took a car to Jiang Yu’s home after finishing today’s training.
Jiang Yu recently did a food variety show. He who has never cooked, has also learned a lot of cooking skills. Hearing his niece said he would come over, he immediately started cooking.
So Zhao Yu was fortunate enough to taste the first meal his uncle cooked.
Five minutes later, the two looked at each other and Jiang Yu opened the takeaway software.
While waiting for the takeaway, Jiang Yu asked: “Lao Yang called me before and talked about your renewal. What did you think?”
Zhao Yu originally planned to tell her uncle about this after eating, and since Jiang Yu mentioned it now, she just retelled the conversation she had with Han Shuang yesterday.
Jiang Yu has been doing variety shows for so many years. When she heard about this “ShiningStars”, she immediately sensed the hot spots of the show.
Zhao Yu finished talking excitedly, his eyes glowing: “Uncle, what do you think? Can I go?”
Jiang Yu looked at his niece’s shiny eyes and shook his head amusedly: “Didn’t you have made a decision?”
Zhao Yu was silent: “…is it so obvious?”
Jiang Yu smiled and stretched out his hand and rubbed her head: “We Yuyu, it’s been a long time since we were so passionate about something.”
He thought for a while and said in a deep voice: “What your leader said is true. Compared with the current domestic traffic market, if you want to take the road of singing and dancing idols, South Korea is indeed a better choice. But she said. Those shortcomings are confined to the six months of participating in the program.”
Jiang Yu looked at her and said, “After the show is over, if you don’t make your debut, you’ll be fine. Once you make your debut, your main focus will be on the Korean market in the future. Most of your travel activities will be abroad. In a foreign country, you are unfamiliar with your life and language The terroir is different. And although the Korean entertainment market is large, the competition is also fiercer. Have you considered this?”
Zhao Yu paused for a while, then shook his head.
“I didn’t think about it.” She said, “I just want to give it a try.”
She wanted to walk around every road to the top.
There may be detours, but it’s better than standing still.
The last time she said she was going to be a trainee, her eyes were as firm and serious as now.
Even though Jiang Yu paved the way for her at that time, he never thought that she would be able to persist until now.
Jiang Yu retracted his gaze, poked the scorched omelette on the plate with his chopsticks, and sighed for a long time and said, “It will be very hard.”
Zhao Yu laughed: “I’m not afraid of hard work!” She sat and shook Jiang Yu’s arm: “Then…Uncle, will you help me convince my parents?”
Jiang Yu smiled and said, “Your parents still need me to persuade? How did they oppose what you want to do?”
Jiang Lei and Zhao Kangning have always been responsive to her within the scope of not being arrogant. Jiang Lei always said that it is not a bad thing for children to try more, choose more and try more, and finally they will know what suits them best.
But this time the incident involved going abroad after all. In the evening, Zhao Yu shared a video with his parents. As soon as Jiang Lei said about it, Zhao Kangning immediately objected.
“No! It’s too dangerous abroad. I watched the news yesterday, and there was an overseas student who was robbed and left dead! No, no, you can’t be a star in China. Jiang Yu, persuade Yaoer to get her to your place. It’s okay to show your face in a variety show!”
Zhao Yu said: “I won’t go through the back door! I want to make my debut with strength!”
Zhao Kangning patted his chest with anger.
Jiang Lei took the phone and asked gently, “Jiang Yu, did you read the contract?”
Jiang Yu nodded: “I saw it, there is no problem. Mu Yi’s old man is always my friend, and his character is reliable. Their company has always cooperated with Han Yu, and I am more optimistic about this draft.”
He turned his head and glanced at Zhao Yu, who was pouting next to him, and smiled: “It’s mainly because Yu Yu wants to go. She rarely insists on one thing. I think it’s better to let her try.”
Jiang Yu said so, and Jiang Lei felt relieved. Several people chatted for a while, and they all analyzed the pros and cons clearly.
Zhao Yu’s attitude is firm, and her performance this year is indeed surprising. Jiang Lei pushed the yelling Zhao Kangning aside and said warmly to the screen: “Mom supports you in chasing your dreams. Go if you want.”
Zhao Yu gave a big kiss to the phone camera.
So when he returned to the company the next day, Zhao Yu went to Han Shuang to sign the contract.
“ShiningStars” this draft has not been made public so far. It is a secret project and will not start to warm up until next month. After that, major companies submitted quotas to select trainees, and they were officially recorded at the turn of the year.
The company also told her in advance to keep Zhao Yu. Mu Yi, as one of the partners, has a total of six selected places. Zhao Yu has already made an appointment, and the remaining five will be selected from the senior class.
As Han Shuang said, this is an opportunity as well as a challenge. Because no one can be sure whether this draft will be popular, if it ends up with a mediocre rating, then the women’s team from this draft will not be too popular.
Rather than betting on such a variety show abroad where they are not familiar with their lives, some trainees who seek stability are still more willing to stay in China and wait for their debut opportunities.
Not many people are still eager to try. Since the company began to select candidates, many trainees have worked hard to recommend themselves and strive for opportunities.
Lin Zhinan also submitted an application, but the competition in the advanced class was too high and she was quite unconfident.
Zhao Yu cheered her up: “On the stage, we not only look at the strength, but also the goodness of the relationship! We South and South America are so distinctive, the Hong Kong style and temperament are so tight, anyone who watches it without boasting is a good time to travel. Retro beauty!”
Lin Zhinan: “…you said yesterday that I was in a big wave.”
In mid-September, when the list was finalized, Lin Zhinan was selected successfully, and he almost cried with Zhao Yu excitedly: “Since I met you, my luck seems to have changed for the better. Yu Yu must be my little lucky star! “
Zhao Yu smiled and rua her head: “It’s the result of our own hard work, Nannan!”
After the list is confirmed, the next step is to apply for various visas and procedures. Zhao Yu also needs to apply for suspension of classes from the school. Many folk dance students make their debut halfway through, so they are relatively tolerant in this regard.
Busy and busy, coupled with uninterrupted training, time flickered into winter.
“ShiningStars” has already begun to pre-populate, but the program is broadcast in South Korea, and most of the audience is also in South Korea. There is relatively little discussion about this draft in China.
In the past six months, except for sleeping, the company conducted targeted training for these trainees who participated in the program for the first time. In addition to speaking skills, camera sense, customs and etiquette, they also hired a language teacher to teach them Korean. .
Zhao Yu’s language talent is really bad, as can be seen in English.
Being tortured to death by Korean every day, Lin Zhinan couldn’t stand it in the end, and taught her the content of what he had learned during training every day.
Zhao Yu was shocked: “Why did you learn so fast?!”
Lin Zhinan glanced at the notebook, “Isn’t it enough to read this kind of thing twice?”
Zhao Yu: “???”
What is this hidden schoolmaster?
The day of departure to South Korea is set on Christmas Day.
Zhao Yu bought Christmas gifts for his friends in advance and had a farewell meal. They are all young people, not so much parting sorrow, everyone is very excited, and they all said that they will mobilize everyone around Yuyu to vote for Yu Yu and send her to debut!
A week before Christmas, it snowed heavily in Beijing.
After Zhao Yu gave all the Christmas gifts to his friends one by one, there was only one left in the bag.
It was a crystal ball with snow floating in it, and a girl in a tutu stood on one foot on the piano, spinning with music.
Very ordinary and tacky, but she liked it at first sight.
That was the gift she wanted to give Shen Junyi.
She knew his address in Beijing, and Grandma Shen told her during the Chinese New Year last year. But if you send it to him anonymously, it should scare him.
I heard that those illegitimate meals always disturb him.
Zhao Yu thought for a while, and put away the crystal ball.
It doesn’t matter, she will always have a chance to give it to him in the future!
The author has something to say:
Oh, I’m almost making my debut, let’s look forward to the next chapter
The variety show for the draft is made up for the plot. If there is any similarity, it is purely because I have seen too little variety show.
You have one vote, I have one vote, Yu Yu will debut next chapter!
