He could not stop training for a day without going on stage.
That afternoon, the three-man team Sky Youth continued their dance and vocal training. Although the training process seemed to be the same as usual, Chen Yu was keenly aware of the subtle change in his teacher's attitude toward him.
After returning home that night and practicing his guitar for two hours, Chen Yu recalled that he had already finished the last part of his online public class," Learning and Training the Basics of Music: Solfeggie." Recalling his promise to his mother, he decided to video call her on WeChat.
In the video, Chen Yu explained the recent events, especially the dispute between the three team leaders.
His mother frowned and said," Little Yu, a tree in the forest will be destroyed by the wind. Will your teammates ostracize you next?"”
His father suddenly squeezed his head into the WeChat video frame."What do you know? When it was time to fight, they had to fight. They had to give in everywhere and would never be able to stand out. There were so many people chasing you back then. If I didn't fight, would I have been able to marry you?”
Chen Yu grinned when he saw the two of them reconcile.
His father continued to add in a loud voice,"But since you've already become the captain, that Tong something you're talking about is considered half a senior to you. You have to respect him a little.”
Upon hearing this, Chen Yu felt that his father was actually a small-time citizen. He had the attitude of not offending anyone as much as possible. However, he still patiently explained,"
"Tong Ruize and I already have a conflict of interest. Now, it doesn't mean that if I respect him and give in to him, our relationship will ease up and he won't mind me being the captain.”
"He's still a child after all," his father said proudly. If you respected him and lowered your attitude, it was not for him to see, but for others to see. Let others know that you're still not arrogant or impatient after becoming the captain. If Tong Ruize appreciated it, it would be fine. If he didn't, others would see it. If they had a dispute next time, others would subconsciously stand on their side.”
Stunned, Chen Yu sighed inwardly," This world was full of people, but his social experience was still a little shallow.
His mother squeezed into the camera and said,"Don't be afraid of anything. Mom and Dad will always be your strong backing."”
Chen Yu's heart stirred. As an orphan in his previous life, he had always worked hard and never relaxed. It wasn't that he liked to work hard, but that he had to work hard. Moreover, he had to work hard every moment. This was all because he never knew who he could rely on in his previous life.
A person with a bitter heart could be filled with a trace of sweetness. The weekly phone call made him gradually rely on his family and tell them everything. In his previous life, it was unimaginable. Now, he enjoyed the feeling of being cared for. For the first time, he was grateful for his transmigration.
"I've discussed it with your dad," his mother said with a smile."After you start the competition, you can vote." Our bun shop will organize an activity: give a bun to the customers who voted for you, and send two bags of soy milk to the customers who posted your promotional message on their WeChat Moments.”
Chen Yu knew that doing so would be like putting out a cartload of firewood with a drop of water in the bucket. However, he was extremely touched that someone had wholeheartedly planned for him.
" Isn't this too costly?" Chen Yu asked with a faint smile." Isn't the loss a lot every day?"”
"The cost is very low," said his father, shaking his head with a smile. Our city is very small. This matter should be able to quickly cover most people through the promotion of your circle of friends. It's already considered news in our city that you became a celebrity. They will also pay attention to our steamed bun shop because of this matter. The traffic of the steamed bun shop will increase. Moreover, if a celebrity appears in our small place, everyone will be honored. Many people might pay attention to you and vote for you spontaneously.”
"But you have to ask your manager, Kang Hui, if we can do this and if it will cause any negative public opinion."”
Nodding, Chen Yu lay on the bed, unable to calm himself down for a long time. He felt both touched and shocked.
He searched the Host's memories and found that his parents were really just ordinary bun sellers. However, why did the skill tree point to: Office fighting skills, user operation division motivation, brand marketing, and public relations crisis preparation?
No matter how he thought about it, he could not understand.
.......
When Chen Yu woke up in the morning, he saw Wu Xiaoshuang's message: "Sister Kang asked you to come to her office at 10 in the morning.”
At 9:50 a. m., Chen Yu arrived at Kang Hui's office on the 18th floor with a suitcase in his left hand and a guitar on his back.
After getting Wu Xiaoshuang to pour Chen Yu a glass of water, Kang Hui went straight to the point and said,"
"President Zhang's secretary has been fired. In the future, the company's publicity resources will be more inclined to you, but this matter ends here.”
"The company values what the artiste can bring to the company, not what the artiste is. To put it bluntly, if Takashima's popularity on the show is higher than yours, the company will value him more and give him more resources.”
Chen Yu nodded. He was already quite satisfied that he could benefit from this matter and obtain some resources.
As for Takashima, he had already entered his little black book.
Kang Hui was satisfied with Chen Yu's attitude toward this matter. She smiled and said," In 'Artiste Trainee,' there's an assistant director called Yang Yuwen who was my driver when I was in Longkong. Although he can't help much on camera, you can look for him if you have any difficulties in life. I've already spoken to him."
After thanking his parents happily, Chen Yu told them about his parents 'thoughts from yesterday in detail.
"Your parents are very smart and love you very much." Kang Hui said after thinking for a moment. There was nothing wrong with this matter. In the future, it could even become a selling point for your character. People had seen enough of acting miserable. Such a warm family was actually not bad.”
Nodding, Chen Yu sent the message to his parents via WeChat.
.......
Because there were many people and a lot of luggage, the company had specially transferred an SUV for them to use today.
The chauffeur drove the car while Wu Xiaoshuang sat in the passenger seat. Chen Yu, Takashima, Tong Ruize, and Kang Hui sat behind him.
When the car drove out of the SH toll station, Kang Hui said seriously,"You will be participating in 'Artiste Trainee' tomorrow. CEO Zhang said a lot of encouraging words yesterday, so I won't say much today. However, there are a few points that I want to emphasize.”
"First, you must always remember: There are cameras recording your every move. Use your brains before you speak or do anything.”
"Secondly, you are a team. You are a team that will rise and fall together. From tomorrow onwards, your phones will be confiscated by the program team. If you have any uncertain ideas, discuss it with the other two.”
"Third, be polite to the cameraman. Whatever you show the audience will be through the camera in their hands. Don't say anything ambiguous. The production team might do a devil's editing for the sake of the show's popularity, but by doing so, the show would become popular, and you would lose your own popularity.”
"Lastly, the program only lasts for two hours. You can calculate how many minutes each of the 100 trainees and the instructors can get on average. Of course, the program team's screen time is not evenly distributed, so you have to learn to add scenes for yourself and fight for the screen time.”
Do you have any questions?"
The three of them looked at each other. Takashima was the first to ask,"How can I give myself more scenes while avoiding being edited by the demons?”
" Think about it from the production team's perspective," Kang Hui said seriously." You have to think clearly about what the production team wants to see in this scene and what kind of effect they want to present."”
" Mhm, mhm," Chen Yu said with a smile." I got it. Please give me some pointers." I want to ask how to deal with the relationship with other trainees?”
"Remember, you're going to participate in the competition, not to make friends." Kang Hui said leisurely. You can get close to other trainees, which may help you get votes, but remember, no matter how good your relationship is, you have to maintain a moderate distance. You have to understand what you can say and what you can't say.”
"What are the main aspects of the company's resources to support us?" asked Tong Ruize.”
"Anything you can think of." Kang Hui smiled. However, the resources that the company has invested in each of you are limited. If you deal with the black spots and consume the resources, then there will be less publicity resources, so remember to be careful in front of the camera.”
Kang Hui looked at the three people who were silent and said,"If there's no problem, just close your eyes and rest for a while.”
