Chapter 229 Special Training
what?
A talent show?
me?
Jia Lai's eyes widened suddenly; he almost thought he had misheard.
Aren't you here to be a singer?
Why would there be a talent show?
In his twenty years of life, he never imagined that the word "talent show" could be associated with him.
Haha… Jia Lai chuckled inwardly, trying to reassure himself: It shouldn't be one of those talent shows, right? It's just a singing competition…
Hoping for a lucky break, he cautiously asked, "What kind of talent show? Is it just about singing?"
Because he was unsure of himself, he spoke softer and softer.
"No, it's not." Bai Li decisively extinguished Jia Lai's last thought. "It's an idol talent show."
The moment Bai Li uttered those words, Jia Lai was instantly "weathered," feeling as if the world had fallen silent.
he?
Go be a pawn?
Idol?
The kind that shines on stage, singing and dancing?
Although both involve singing, there is a fundamental difference between singers and idols.
The profession of idol is too far away for him.
He can sing and record songs, but he can't sing and dance in front of a huge audience!
Jia Lai was at a loss for how to react, like someone who had always walked on land suddenly being told to conquer the stars and the sea.
In that instant, Jia Lai's entire body went blank.
Bai Li couldn't help but laugh at Jia Lai's clueless expression, and asked with a hint of teasing, "Surprised?"
In Bai Li's mind, Jia Lai is a perfect match in terms of both appearance and singing ability.
The only uncertainty is whether Jia Lai can actually dance.
Idols have relatively high requirements for their singing and dancing skills.
According to the "first-hand intelligence" provided by his good friend Shan Gui, Jia Lai is a homebody who rarely leaves his house, so the possibility of him being able to dance is extremely slim.
However, Bai Li already had a plan. Tomorrow, she would send Jia Lai to the company's artist training center, where there are professional posture and dance teachers. As long as Jia Lai is willing to learn, there might still be a chance.
If he performs well in the training, we'll send him to a talent show to get some exposure.
After all, Jia Lai has already missed the opportunity to appear in the second Liyuan New Voice Competition, and the talent show is the fastest way for him to "start a career".
Of course, if Jia Lai is really uncoordinated and his dancing is as ugly as demolishing a house, Bai Li will not throw him on the show to embarrass himself. She has other ways to train him.
Bai Li wouldn't tell Jia Lai about these backup plans, because she was afraid that if Jia Lai knew, he wouldn't study hard anymore.
Upon hearing Bai Li's question, Jia Lai paused for a moment, then shook his head vigorously, repeatedly saying, "No surprise, no surprise."
But his slightly trembling voice still betrayed his inner panic.
Jia Lai knew perfectly well that he had already signed the contract.
And I just decided that I would definitely obey all the company's arrangements.
How can you change your mind now?
Just thinking about the talent show makes Jia Lai's scalp tingle.
I've never been exposed to dance before, so how can I possibly succeed in participating in a talent show so hastily?
Jia Lai could already imagine how his good buddies would laugh at him if he went on the show and danced terribly.
Waaaaah, I'll probably be laughed at for the rest of my life!
Thinking about this, Jia Lai felt that his life was miserable.
From Bai Li's perspective, Jia Lai's expression at this moment is even more bitter than a bitter melon.
(╯︵╰)
His cheeks were slightly puffed up from being depressed, and his puppy-dog eyes looked like he was extremely aggrieved.
I felt even more depressed than before I signed the contract; it was as if a dark cloud was hanging over my head.
Bai Li, the "instigator," almost burst out laughing out loud, which was rather unethical.
Jia Lai is the first person who can make Bai Li find even her dejected appearance adorable.
Her judgment is never wrong; Jia Lai seems to have a unique "audience appeal," an aura that makes people unconsciously like and like her.
She bet that if Jia Lai had any exposure, he would definitely gain a large number of fans.
The talent show might actually be a path he could forge, but he never considered it and lacked confidence in himself.
Thinking of this, Bai Li suddenly had an idea. With a serious expression, she said solemnly, "Jialai, good luck! I really look forward to your wonderful performance in the talent show. Represent Day and Night Entertainment and bring glory to the company!"
While Bai Li's words sounded encouraging, they were undoubtedly adding insult to injury for Jia Lai.
How could he possibly represent entertainment day and night?
Mr. Bai, aren't your expectations of me too high?
Jia Lai was filled with mixed emotions, feeling like crying but unable to. He could only nod with a forced smile, his voice tinged with a sense of tragic determination: "President Bai, I will do my best."
The interview and contract signing process has concluded.
Shan Gui, who had been keeping an eye on things, immediately heard the news. Upon hearing that his good brother was going to be sent to the talent show, Shan Gui burst into laughter.
Jia Lai knew he was finished.
If the mountain spirit knows, it means that all his brothers know.
Sure enough, when he turned on his phone, the group chat had already been buzzing with discussion for quite a while.
The group chat avatars were flashing wildly, with red numbers 99+. Jia Lai knew without even looking that there was nothing nice to say.
Orange Peel: Hahahaha, who are you talking about? Who wants to participate in a talent show?
Dumb: Jia Lai has this kind of strength?! I didn't know!
Pastoral Song: My good brother isn't going to go up there and perform a two-person comedy routine, is he?
King Yao Shun: Hey! Don't discourage Jia Lai! I support Jia Lai! Jia Lai! If you can make it to the second round, I'll gather all my relatives and friends to cheer you on! @Jia Lai
……
Jia Lai typed a single word, "Get lost," and sent it, then closed the group chat.
This is intolerable!
Laugh! Laugh all you want! I'm going to make them famous and make them furious!
Jia Lai has no choice but to work hard now.
If you really embarrass yourself on a talent show, they'll laugh at you to death.
Day and Night Entertainment is extremely efficient. On his first day at the company, Jia Lai was provided with a full management team, including an agent and a junior assistant.
But from Jia Lai's perspective, he was less of an agent or assistant and more of an undercover agent sent by the company to monitor him.
Every day without fail, I am responsible for waking him up and getting him to the training class on time.
Because he had no dance background whatsoever, the dance training had become a kind of special training.
It lasted from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m.
With three dance teachers taking turns, plus the manager and assistant monitoring the whole process, Jia Lai couldn't slack off even if he wanted to.
The moment you open your eyes, it's time to practice!
Once you close your eyes, you're asleep!
Every day is just practice, practice, practice!
Train like crazy!
Because he lives in the company's employee dormitory and receives training at the company, spending the entire day at the company, he never sees the sun outside.
This utter darkness lasted for two months.
Jia Lai didn't know how he kept going. Maybe it was to pay off his huge debts, or maybe it was to save face and avoid being laughed at.
By the time he came to his senses, he had undergone a complete transformation.
