"Is it Nan Xiao...?"
"It's really him, how did he come here, I remember that he debuted for five or six years, right?"
"Is this the tears of the times, Nan Xiao actually came to participate in "Infinite Youth" to compete with us... Alas, I actually feel a little sad."
The trainees around were whispering. Qin Lu looked at the person in the center of the stage. He did look more mature than these trainees whose average age was around 20 years old. The aura is also strong, and it is not uncomfortable to face the camera.
He is a standard heavy-faced type, and now he is wearing exquisite stage makeup, sharp with a little softness.
Even though he was the senior of most of the trainees present and had been out for many years, Nan Xiao still solemnly bowed 90 degrees to the four mentors after taking the stage.
"Hello teachers, I'm Nan Xiao."
The mentors were obviously familiar with him, and the outspoken rap mentor Yin Sulli said in surprise, "Are you the one from the "Secret History of the Palace" that has been aired during this time... the guard with a sword?"
Generally speaking, after listening to Yin Suli's cue to his role, most people will show a little smile, at least they must be able to catch the topic that the other party throws up intentionally or unintentionally, but Nan Xiao is not an ordinary person.
I saw the other party's face was serious, and he didn't even move his brows: "It's me."
Yin Suli was obviously chasing the drama and wanted to give him a spoiler: "So have you found the heroine in the next episode? Was she rescued by the second male lead?"
Nan Xiao stood still: "It will be broadcast on time at 18 o'clock tomorrow."
Yin Suli: "...You are quite principled?"
Nan Xiao nodded: "Thank you, this is what I should do."
Yin Suli: "..."
Yes, it's quite personal.
She turned to look at the dance instructor Yao Chen: "Do you know him?"
"Yeah." Yao Chen was full of emotion when he saw Nan Xiao's student profile, he looked at Nan Xiao, "Actually, you are my senior, I will meet you at the awards ceremony of the Entertainment Awards. Pass."
At that time, Nan Xiao had only just turned 20 years old and had just made his debut, and he was still in a rising period full of expectations for the growth of popularity. When Yao Chen saw the other party, he was still an ignorant half-year-old and felt that the other party was a very powerful senior.
Five or six years have passed in the blink of an eye, and Yao Chen's men's group 1billion has become more and more popular. His popularity is no longer comparable to that of the past, but Nan Xiao has become a trainee who needs to be evaluated by his younger generation.
Things are unpredictable.
Nan Xiao's star journey is really a bit bumpy.
He debuted as a boy group at the age of nineteen, but apart from a little splash at the beginning, he soon stopped moving. Over time, the combination will exist in name only, and the team members will go their separate ways.
For a long time, Nan Xiao couldn't get any jobs. It seemed that yesterday there were still a lot of announcements to run, but today there is nothing left in a trance.
The people in the team can't afford the termination fee, and they either spend it like this, or go to various unknown variety shows or play tricks in the crew.
In the blink of an eye, in the past four years, Nan Xiao slowly went from being the male N to the third male, from the male lead of an online drama to the second male lead in a drama with a good character. It seems that he did not waste his efforts in vain.
But in the past four years, Nan Xiao did not have any stage. The other team members were just messing around because they couldn't afford the liquidated damages, but Nan Xiao himself was unwilling to give up. What he really loved was singing, dancing and shining on the stage.
What he thinks is actually quite simple. People live like this once in their life. After all, they have to work hard to do what they want to do, so that they will not regret it. Even if he walks into the dark on the road of being an actor, in exchange for a household name and reputation, it is better to sweat in the corner of a stage, which will make him happier.
Even if no one in the audience remembers his name, even if there is no light sign for him.
In any case, he wanted to try again.
"I didn't expect the teacher to remember me." Nan Xiao's eyes were bright, but his expression was as motionless as a rock.
As early as when Nan Xiao had a conversation with Yin Suli, Yao Chen was a little strange. Because in his memory, Nan Xiao doesn't seem to have such a serious personality: "Aren't you a little nervous? I remember that you used to be responsible for the atmosphere in the team and loved to laugh. You can rest assured, as long as your strength is strong enough..."
"Ah, no," Nan Xiao said with a paralyzed face. Hearing this, he raised the microphone and explained, "I originally thought that I was relatively old, so I had an injection before I came to maintain a better state."
Yao Chen seemed to realize something.
Nan Xiao finished the second half of the sentence expressionlessly: "—As a result, my face couldn't move."
Yao Chen: "..."
As a female rapper known for her ruthless and vicious tongue, Yin Suli's surface was as motionless as a mountain, but in fact, she took a deep breath without any traces, in case she accidentally laughed out loud.
It's so sincere, Yin Suli likes children who say something like this.
The trainees were stunned by Nan Xiao's candor and honesty, especially Lu Zhi, who has been actively doing real-time reactions to every trainee on the field, and let out a goose-like laughter.
Since then, Nan Xiao has left a deep impression on the hearts of all the trainees, known as the stone face, and has become a very funny sneer in the show.
The first stage of the rating he brought was the debut song of their group. Nan Xiao wanted to use this stage to commemorate the initial journey, which meant that he had started all over again, from nothing to starting over.
Although there has been no chance for performances in the past few years, Nan Xiao still has not abandoned the dance and vocal music foundation that he once exchanged for most of his youth.
It's a pity that maybe because of too much attention, I was nervous, and I made a mistake in the ending pose.
Originally, Nan Xiao could get a well-deserved A grade, but in the end, after considering all aspects of the tutors, he gave a B.
Nan Xiao wiped the sweat from his face, and didn't raise any objection to the result. He just said seriously that he would practice harder and would not make mistakes again.
His dance has been highly praised by Yao Chen's mentor.
"I hope you can seize this opportunity and do your best." As someone who also regards the stage as his lifelong dream, Yao Chen sincerely hopes that Nan Xiao can get what he wants in this show and return to the stage.
The young dance instructor made a cheering move: "Brother, you must debut."
Nan Xiao bowed deeply.
Although he tried his best to endure, Nan Xiao still couldn't help but still have red eyes. He nodded, hooked the corners of his mouth with two fingers, and pulled up a big smile. Although the smile on the stone face that was hooked out by external forces had nothing to do with being handsome, it was a little more cute.
"I will!"
The trainee sitting next to Qin Lu was very quiet until Nan Xiao left the stage, when he suddenly stretched out his hand and gave him a few rounds of applause.
The live environment was relatively noisy. After all, there were hundreds of people in the studio, so only a few people sitting around him heard it.
Qin Lu tilted his head, the light-blond boy's eyes were calm and looked a little cold. From sitting down until just now, he hardly moved, like a broken clockwork machine. Others are a little bit moody when they watch the show, but this one is like a completely still picture until just now.
Kind of like a sloth who never moves unless necessary.
"Hello, teachers! I'm Su Qinglan from Fengyu Culture. I'm seventeen this year. I like and specialize in vocals."
The trainee who just took the stage looks very young, unlike the idol style or sports style in front of him, he is wearing a cute cartoon sweater, his hair is fluffy brown curly hair, and he walks vigorously. These steps from the background are almost run.
"It's very energetic." It has been recorded for several hours, not only the trainees who are always tense, but also the tutors can't hide their tiredness, but they have been working hard to maintain their energy out of professionalism. After watching a lot of flaming or noise-polluted stages, the instructors couldn't help but shine when they saw the trainees of another style.
He showed a pair of small tiger teeth when he spoke, probably because of his young age. Even though he looked thin overall, there was a bit of flesh on his cheeks, and when he smiled, he would have shallow cat lines.
The little curly hair bowed to the tutors that he wished he could slam into the floor 180 degrees, and grinned with a bright smile: "The song I want to perform is—"
"Wait, wait, I have to chat with you a few words to understand the situation before the performance, don't worry, don't worry." Producer Cui Zhihao couldn't help but want to laugh, "Where are you going in a hurry? Ah, there could have been ten minutes of footage, but if you save the process, the director will just cut it for you."
The little curly hair looked confused, and seemed to understand that the other party was for his own good, so he again bowed eight times with a 360-degree Thomas roundabout: "Thank you teacher! Let's chat, I'm not in a hurry!"
Su Qinglan was very happy: "Actually, I was very nervous. Before I came here, I told my mother that I was going to meet a star, but my mother still didn't believe it."
Yin Suli felt that the rumors of his stinky face for many years would be buried in this show today.
She calmed down for a moment, flipped through the information, and said with a cold face, "... the first prize of the campus singer contest?"
Su Qinglan nodded, eyes sparkling, Yin Suli seemed to see a line of bright characters written on his face: Isn't it amazing!
Yin Suli took a few glances at the resume that recorded Su Qinglan's personal glorious deeds, and closed the document with a snap.
She raised her eyes: "Can you sing rap?"
Yin Su, the stinky king of a generation, will immediately know what the real suffering of life is.
