Chapter 83
Sha Ling stared blankly at Nan XiangWan.
Why flip off the sky, was it some kind of victory ritual?
So Sha Ling thought for a moment, and followed suit.
After flipping the bird,
she asked, "Like this?"
Nan XiangWan:
Bullet screen comments:
Hahaha Sha Ling followed this fool Nan XiangWan and flipped the bird too?
Why is she learning from Nan XiangWan? Watching this, Sha Ling looks even more foolish haha!
I'm laughing so hard my face is smashing the keyboard and typing gibberish!
Oh no! Sha Ling has been completely corrupted!
Now not only can Sha Ling do handstands and go crazy, she's learned to flip the bird too!
Sha Ling is beyond saving now, just give up everyone!
Just watch as Nan XiangWan corrupts all the cuties in Class A one by one!
After splitting into teams and handing out CDs and sheet music, instructor Bian ZhiMing clapped his hands and stood still on the stage.
The 30 trainees below quieted down and looked at him.
Bian ZhiMing was feeling somewhat sentimental at this moment: I'm almost forty now too, looking at you all is like looking at my daughters. From one hundred to only thirty now, it's hard for me too deep down.
The atmosphere was tinged with sadness.
Bian ZhiMing: You've probably guessed it too, there are six shows total and we've already done three. I'm doing the drawing for the fourth show, Teacher Zhong LingFei is doing the fifth, and Teacher Zhao Lan is talking to you all last.
So this is also the last time I'll stand this close to speak to you all.
There will still be instructor teachings and whatnot going forward, but later on, it'll just be the competition on stage.
The instructors' role will gradually decrease, and it'll be more on the trainees own efforts.
As he said this, not a few trainees below had reddened eyes!
Especially those near the bottom of the rankings, who knew this may be their last stage.
Seeing this, Bian ZhiMing made a "go for it" gesture: Anyway, you all have to do well!
Rank 22 Li Banyan immediately started bawling: Wahhh Director! Wahhh!
The camera immediately focused on her.
Li Banyan said with red eyes: Can I make a request Director?!
The lead director Hua YuanWu made a hand gesture, and the staff immediately nodded at her on site.
Li Banyan pointed to the topmost tier: I'll definitely be gone next performance, I want to add Nan XiangWan on WeChat before I go.
Snap!
The sudden request stunned even instructor Bian ZhiMing and the other staff.
They thought she was reluctant to leave the stage, but she just wants to add Nan XiangWan on WeChat?
Damn, so you're only reluctant to part with Nan XiangWan huh!
Li Banyan cried fiercely, sobbing and hiccuping.
The lead director gave in, and had someone bring over a phone.
Li Banyan immediately happily grabbed the phone and ran off to find Nan XiangWan.
Not a few of the trainees were laughing.
Jian Ya was laughing too, but coldly.
At this point in the show filming, most people had figured out the gimmicks of the show, hiding phones and whatnot wasn't out of the question.
In Jian Ya's eyes, Li Banyan's request made so publicly was simply shameless clout chasing!
In fact, Li Banyan was really wronged.
Her sudden cry this time was purely from being affected by Bian ZhiMing plus her emotions overflowing.
Li Banyan really didn't have a hidden phone!
Firstly, she was clumsy, and had been caught by the staff before when she hid a phone previously and had it confiscated.
Secondly, she was a trainee from a small company, and didn't have the money to buy multiple backup phones, so after being caught once she didn't try hiding it again.
So Li Banyan really didn't have a phone on her.
To get outside information and such, she had to ask her roommate.
Ding Wen had a phone, and had secretly added Nan XiangWan on WeChat already.
In the afternoon.
The thirty trainees split into 15 groups to prepare for their stage performances in different practice rooms.
Nan XiangWan was taking an afternoon nap, sleeping until 2:30pm.
Her nap times weren't very regular each day, she'd sleep longer if she was tired, or not at all if not tired. She was tired today after the first day of weighted training, so she slept longer.
No one disturbed her either, the staff seemed to have given up on waking her!
In one practice room, Sha Ling was listening to the song and choreographing.
She didn't even consider arranging the song. Firstly she wasn't good at it, and secondly this song was best not rearranged.
Unless she could surpass the original!
But could she possibly surpass this ceiling-reaching hit in Mandopop?
Don't be a fool!
What Sha Ling had to do was achieve perfection in the dance, to match this legendary song.
Going over it again and again, she already had an initial idea.
And it was custom made for Nan XiangWan!
In another practice room, Jian Ya's teammates were contacting each other, and Jian Ya still hadn't appeared by 3pm.
Her teammates felt it was a bit odd, but didn't ask much.
At 4pm, Jian Ya walked into the practice room.
Her teammates smiled and came up to her: Jian Ya! Let's go through it once!
Jian Ya forced a smile: Sure, what ideas do you have so far?
Teammate: I'm not good at arranging
Jian Ya: How about I do it?
Teammate: Great! You're higher ranked and more skilled, I trust you!
Jian Ya smiled: Okay, let's add rock elements.
Teammate: Rock, rock? But this is a love ballad, forcing it into rock doesn't seem right?
Jian Ya: The audience likes fiery, explosive stages, we have to cater to them!
Teammate: Alright
-----------------
Monica had been in a good mood these days.
Nan XiangWan's Lion King look went viral!
Monica had proven herself, and seemingly defeated Jing Da Shuai.
At least in momentum she had defeated him!
The Lion King look was spreading wildly online, known not just in the Chinese fashion scene but catching attention in other countries too.
It was truly stunning!
Many imitation makeups appeared in sequence, going viral on major internet platforms.
Monica's fame in China rose, and internationally she received more invitations too.
Making her aura even stronger, as if as powerful as Mr. Lagerfeld!
At the moment, she was in Paris viewing a fashion show.
She sat in the front row, scrutinizing with a critical eye the models walking down the runway.
The quality of this show wasn't high!
Just then,
her assistant Wei Er walked up and whispered something in her ear.
Boss, an agent from South-North Entertainment is here to contact you, asking you to do a Lion King look for one of their trainees in a few days.
Monica frowned: I don't repeat looks.
Wei Er: Understood, I'll go reject them right away.
Monica waved her hand dismissively, not thinking much of it.
She continued watching the show.
At the same time far away in China,
Jing Da Shuai stared fiercely at the viral Lion King look online, nearly exploding from anger.
How dare that bitch Monica openly provoke him?
She even spent money on ads, saying Monica defeated Jing Da Shuai?
Defeat your sister!
What kind of defeat is this!
Jing Da Shuai refused to accept this. He picked up his phone to contact Hua Wan Entertainment.
He would do Nan XiangWan's next look for free if he had to!
No, the next and the one after, he was booking them first!
