Chapter 155 "Semi-Finished Product"
"Will the teacher inform us to return to the company?" Yu Lan asked slowly.
"Just take a look." Qin Jue said calmly, "Are Yang Jihan and Liang Yixuan still alive?"
"..." Even Yu Lan was frozen for two seconds because of her straightforward words, "Well, are you still... alive and well?"
"That's good."
Qin Jue passed by him, the tips of his ears twitched slightly, and he stopped.
Not long after, the sound of thumping downstairs came from far and near. Shi Yan anxiously pushed open the unit door: "Yu Lan! Teacher Qin is coming... Ah, hello, teacher."
His hair was limp, his face was stained with sweat, and he looked as sluggish as a little corgi.
Qin Jue smiled and stroked the child's head: "Hello."
Shi Yan's whole body was visibly tense, his hair stood on end, and he subconsciously wanted to retreat.
This teacher Qin Jue has a terrible smile on his face.
What happened a few hours ago flashed back to Shi Yan's mind like an electric current.
Yangliu Entertainment, comprehensive practice room.
The guitar and drum sounds gradually fell, and Shi Yan's final notes floated in the air.
"You need special training to get to this point." Yang Jihan hugged Bess and yawned, "I really want to debut as soon as possible."
"Sister Liu said, wow!" Shi Yan subconsciously spoke to Li Mai and was startled by his own voice on the stereo.
Xia Song, who was at the mixing console, made adjustments silently.
"Sister Liu said that many of the songs in our debut album were provided by this teacher." Shi Yan glanced at his best friend with a smile and explained to the other teammates, "He came over today to guide us in singing and dancing practice."
Although Liu Huajun's expression at that time was scary, but... the new teacher should be a person with a good temper.
Shi Yan prayed secretly.
At first, he and Xia Song went to the United States as exchange students and studied dance with foreign teachers for three years.
Liu Huajun told them frankly that this was the best resource the company could provide.
Shi Yan and the others were able to stand out from dozens of trainees and stay for such a long time. They showed basic courtesy and kindness, so they naturally felt cherished.
Recalling those days, there was a language barrier, he couldn't eat hometown food, every day except eating and sleeping, he would either practice piano or dance, and he had to be scolded by the teacher... Shi Yan's eyes went dark for a while.
Anyway, I hope the new teacher will be a gentle person, please.
"Captain, do you know when the teacher is coming?" Liang Yixuan asked aloud, doing a beautiful trick with the two drumsticks in his hand.
"I only know that it is today, when is the specific time..."
"Hello teacher."
Xia Song suddenly spoke.
Several people were shocked for a moment and turned around hurriedly.
The new teacher stood quietly by the door. She was visually slightly shorter than Xia Song, who was 1.8 meters tall. She had a well-proportioned figure. She was wearing an ordinary vest, sweatpants, shoulder bag, and a low-brimmed peaked cap. Like Yu Lan, she tied her hair into a braid at the back of her neck, but her hair was not long and only tied with a small knot.
"Hello."
The teacher waved his hand. The clearer the voice, the better, but it was very neutral. If it weren't for the Adam's apple, it would be impossible to tell the difference between male and female.
"There's no need to introduce yourself, your faces are all easy to recognize." He continued, "You don't need to know me particularly well. My name and experience don't matter."
Yo, what a unique teacher.
Liang Yixuan, who was behind the drum set, raised his eyebrows secretly.
"I heard your rehearsal just now." The teacher's tone was calm and unhurried, "Where are the songs for singing and dancing? How about one now?"
This means it’s going to be assessed.
As the captain, Shi Yan responded promptly and hesitated for two seconds: "I'm sorry, teacher, we have to warm up first for dancing, okay?"
"how long?"
"Uh...ten minutes?"
Shi Yan's tone was a little erratic.
Yu Lan, a relatively late addition to their "Thousand Colors", has an excellent ensemble, but is slower to get into singing and dancing.
Since there is an assessment, it depends on the overall strength, and no one member can be left behind.
"Um."
The teacher nodded slightly and found a seat to sit down.
The comprehensive practice room is divided into two parts. Dance practice is in the front, and musical instruments are placed in the back. The space is very large.
"Yu Lan."
Yang Jihan habitually walked to his teammates. He and Liang Yixuan were mainly responsible for dancing in "Thousand Colors". In the year since Yu Lan joined them, they have been taking him to practice dance.
"This teacher is not bad. He goes straight to the topic without saying anything else." Liang Yixuan mouthed.
Shi Yan smiled.
After a short warm-up, they picked up the microphone and put on the headphones. Xia Song went to the mixing console to change the effects.
"Do you want the reverb to be turned up so high?"
The new teacher spoke calmly.
"Uh... um." His tone was calm. Shi Yan couldn't hear the emotion or anger, so he could only nod.
"Turn it off."
The teacher continued.
"Eh?" "Qianse" and the five others were all stunned for a moment.
"Turn off the pad sound." The teacher continued, "Turn off the original singing."
Xia Song froze in front of the mixing console and subconsciously looked at Shi Yan.
"Teacher, we..." Shi Yan said blankly, "We want to sing and dance."
"Does singing and dancing have to be half on?"
The teacher almost suppressed his last voice and asked, "It's just accompaniment, can't you sing?"
"No, no, but-"
Shi Yan was a little confused.
Dancing will definitely make your breath unstable. Half-open mic is just for singing and dancing. Isn’t this common sense?
"It's okay, come on!"
Liang Yixuan's tone was a little unhappy, "Why don't we just listen to the dry sound? It's not like we can't do it."
Why does this teacher speak in such a domineering tone?
Liang Yixuan is the oldest in the group, and he has always treated the youngest Shi Yan like a younger brother. What's more, Shi Yan is sensible, polite, and cute. No one dislikes him. Is this teacher blind?
"okay."
Shi Yan hesitated for a moment and nodded towards Xia Song.
The preliminary preparations were completed, and the five "Thousand Colors" people took their positions in front of the mirror.
The accompaniment sounded, and to a lively and brisk melody, several people danced at the same time, changing formations, and sang the debut song they had practiced for the longest time: "Soaring".
The first sentence Shi Yan spoke was in perfect pitch, and there was nothing wrong with it except for being a little nervous.
After he finished singing his part, he lowered his body and Xia Song stood up, breathing heavily due to dancing.
Then, after Yu Lan circled around, he raised his microphone... and his voice broke.
The clearly broken sounds of his teammates reached his ears, and Liang Yixuan's expression and movements froze for half a second, and he was off-key when he opened his mouth.
Yang Jihan's part was rap. He was distracted by his teammates' successive mistakes and sang a beat too slowly.
After the performance of the song, the five people looked embarrassed.
Liang Yixuan and Yang Jihan did not blame Yu Lan. The dance movements of the song "Soaring" are very wide. Yu Lan is a god of stance output. He is a rookie who combines singing and dancing. He can't stand firmly when turning in circles, and his voice is only slightly broken. In fact, it is already good. .
Who knew Quankaimai would have so many flaws.
Yang Jihan's face was red and white.
They looked at the teacher collectively and saw only the brim of each other's caps.
Silence filled the practice room until the teacher spoke:
"That's it?"
The atmosphere became even more awkward.
In addition to being the team leader, Shi Yan was also in charge of the MC. He tried his best to explain with a smile: "I'm sorry, teacher, singing and dancing are usually done half-on, just to cover up the sound of breathing and panting. We... didn't try it. If you perform purely as an accompaniment, you won’t be familiar with it.”
"Other people's 'normal' is your 'normal'?" the teacher asked casually, "Do you plan to do the same at the concert? Or, play the recording?"
"How can it be possible to play the recording!"
Yang Jihan spoke urgently.
When the recording is played, it's pure lip-synching. They still have some professional ethics!
"What's the difference between half-on mic and playing a recording?" The teacher crossed his arms indifferently, "If you can't sing or can't sing well, you don't have to sing. Just lip-sync."
"What's the matter even if that's the case." Liang Yixuan frowned, "All idols are like this. We are already dancing together, why are you holding on to the half-open mic and the full open mic?"
"Yixuan..." Shi Yan was so anxious that he pulled at his sleeve.
"The dancing is very uniform?" The teacher tilted his head slightly, as if recalling for two seconds, "Oh, not bad. So what, the dancing is very uniform, then why don't you join a dance troupe to debut?"
"us……"
"My position is to sing and dance, but it turns out that singing and dancing are separated, right? To sing, play an instrument; to dance, dance together without singing." The teacher even sneered, "That's it? Put it in a concert, Put it in front of thousands or even tens of thousands of fans, and that’s all you do? Don’t you think you are committing business fraud?”
"Fuck, what did you say?" Yang Jihan took a step forward, but Shi Yan grabbed the hem of his clothes.
"Main Vocal, I can only say that my dancing is passable. My voice is shaking when I say the first sentence. I have no merit except for the pitch." The teacher held up a palm-sized notepad and said, "Deputy Vocal, the dance movements are not standard, the breath is unstable, and the voice is small. It had to be directly covered by the accompaniment. The two dancers had good strength. Yang Jihan almost stepped on Shi Yan. The rap sounded like a rat coming to the treasure. Liang Yixuan was out of tune. Basic skills such as pitch needed to be practiced."
"Xia Song, why do you feel so exhausted that you can paddle even if you're not on stage?"
After the spicy and sharp comment, the teacher said calmly, "'Singing and dancing are usually half-open.' Yes, this sentence is correct, but for idol boy groups including you, you have to add causality. more acurrate."
"'Because' the singing and dancing are mediocre, 'so' the mic is half on." He scoffed.
The five people from "Thousand Colors" blushed without exception, but the performance just now was enough to explain the problem, and any further argument would look very low.
"It feels to me that you either have to be a band and don't dance, or you have to practice even harder to sing and dance. Now that you have the banner of being a band, singing and dancing, reaping the dividends of singing and dancing, and attracting fans, don't It's like selling sheep's head to dog meat."
The teacher stood up neatly and walked up to them with his pockets in his pockets.
"One question." His tone of speech was still very calm, "How can you keep fans after your debut?"
He was facing Shi Yan, who was standing in position C. The latter moved his lips and replied in a low voice:
"Teacher, the idol boy groups of Dragon Kingdom are all about growing up, so we don't need to be good at the beginning. The fans will grow up with us and become better together..." Qianse 'That's how it's positioned."
The teacher wearing a peaked cap was silent for a few seconds and laughed softly.
He reached out suddenly, grabbed the back of Shi Yan's head, and very slowly pulled Shi Yan closer to him.
Under the terrifying aura, Shi Yan, who was shaking unconsciously, heard him sneer and say:
"What kind of evil the fans have done depends on you half-finished products."
