It's not easy being a star

The "Our Challenge" program team notified Lai Zining that he was going to shoot a promotional video. He arrived at the location early in advance. The staff of the program team were placing some props. The location was a slope, but there were railings in front.

When Fang Yu saw him, he waved and said, "Xiao Lai, come here."

Lai Zining quickly walked over, "Hi, Director Fang."

"Well," Fang Yu pushed his shoulders to a position and asked, pointing to the railing in front of his waist: "According to your age and qualifications, the program team discussed that you should be suitable for this, See that box hanging on the wall over there?"

Lai Zining looked over and saw a silver box hanging on the wall, "I see it."

"You need to run up and jump over the railing over there, and then get the box in your hand," Director Fang explained in detail: "It must be done in one go, without the slightest hesitation, our publicity theme is to challenge ourselves. The challenge, and the determination."

"I understand," Lai Zining nodded.

"Come on, let's try first."

Lai Zining took off his coat and handed it to Xiao Gou to stand at the place Fang Yu had set. Seeing Fang Yu gesture OK, he ran up immediately. When he reached the railing, he supported the railing with both hands and let go the moment his body flew into the air. With his left hand, he jumped over easily, and took down the silver box.

Fang Yu was watching the camera screen when he was leaving, but his brows were frowned. In his opinion, Lai Zining's movements were really easy, and because of his good dancing skills, every move was particularly eye-catching, just like Dance a bit, and be very mindful of the arc of your movements.

Too deliberate.

"Xiao Lai, come here." Fang Yu waved.

Lai Zining ran back.

Fang Yu said: "I know you have a foundation in dancing, so you need to look good when you do any moves, but from now on I hope you forget that you are an idol, put aside your external conditions, don't care about whether you run well, don't It doesn’t matter what angle you use to face the camera when you jump up, you have to express the most direct attitude.”

Lai Zining was originally in a relaxed mood, but he immediately calmed down after Fang Yu said this. He is an idol, and in domestic terms he is a little fresh meat. The content of the body teacher in the usual class requires everyone to present when facing the camera. The most perfect side of himself, and maintain a keen perception of the camera, so that he will not be captured at an angle that exposes his flaws, so he will show it unconsciously just now.

"Sorry, let me try again." Lai Zining said seriously: "I will pay attention to the angle."

"No," Fang Yu saw what he was thinking, and explained: "It's not about your angle, it has nothing to do with your appearance and temperament, what I mean is that your body is too coordinated, like a well-calculated Similarly, you have to use the feeling of being desperate to bring the most authentic side to the camera," and finally he concluded: "It means that you don't want to look too good when you dance."

Lai Zining nodded: "Okay."

"Go ahead, just come a few more times."

It has been more than an hour until Fang Yu is satisfied with the complete shooting. In the middle, Fang Yu and Lai Zining explained the essentials to pay attention to in many aspects. Lai Zining does not have much experience in shooting, so he is somewhat at a loss. Fortunately, He is willing to study hard.

In the end, Fang Yu patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter if you are young, it's good if you have the heart to learn."

Sister Zhao came to pick him up in person, and when she got back to the car, she asked, "How is it?"

Lai Zining just jumped a dozen times for a simple shot. Although he was not very tired, it was a bit of a mental blow. He didn't answer the question originally, but he was a little frustrated when he heard Sister Zhao's question: "My The sense of the camera is not good, Director Fang said that I care too much about the image problem, and I can't let go of the heavy burden of being an idol."

"Director Fang said that?" Sister Zhao was surprised. In her opinion, even if people in the entertainment circle really thought so, they wouldn't just say it outright. After all, it wouldn't do any good. Offend.

Lai Zining shook his head: "The latter part is what I think."

Sister Zhao sighed, and when she was about to speak, she saw Lai Zining turned to her and said, "Sister, help me arrange it, I want to learn more about acting, so I don't have to be so passive."

Sister Zhao shook her head disapprovingly: "Your current schedule is too full, and the program team is preparing for it recently, and I will notify you at any time. You should have a good rest now, and there are three seniors around you when recording the program. There are better ones." Experience is worth learning from."

Lai Zining frowned and remained silent.

Sister Zhao didn't say anything more, she knew Lai Zining well, and knew that he was just trying to make ends meet.Sure enough, a few minutes later Lai Zining raised his head and smiled, and said, "I can't be in a hurry. The most important thing right now is the recording of this program."

Miss Zhao nodded.

There was another moment of silence in the car, and Lai Zining looked out of the car window and suddenly said, "I have a feeling."

"what?"

It's the kind of special suspension in my heart, but there are inexplicable excitement and anticipation, as if the future has begun to show its immature shape, no longer those dark nights when I was lying alone on the bed and looking at the ceiling, wondering what I was thinking , full of confusion about the future.

When Lai Zining was young, he was full of ambitions and unwilling to be mediocre. He participated in RT's trials. The competition continued and he finally entered RT with singing and became one of the trainees. However, RT, which has always been scary and cruel to the outside world, is not what everyone imagined. In order to be free and casual, if you feel tired, then you can spend every day with ease, if you are worried that you will not be done well by others, then you should practice hard!The company system is very relaxed, and the practice is all on his own. He also spent those times when he had nothing to do and didn’t know what to do. Later, he was anxious when he was sent back to China because of fights and disputes. He was afraid that he would lose this opportunity. The chance to stand on a stage with blinding lights and deafening cheers, but only if you need the chance, the chance to be the guy who thought he had failed, had no chance, every night I kept praying, even hugged the quilt and shed tears, I only hoped to do it again, give him another chance, I will definitely grasp it well, and I will never make mistakes because of those ignorant reasons.

Language barriers, foreign living habits made him unable to adapt, and his family's worries and dissuasion made him more determined, and he could not just return to China in such a desperate way!

His limbs are uncoordinated, he practiced desperately, practiced for more than ten hours a day, tried various methods, asked the seniors for their skills, observed other people's practice, but he couldn't reach the level of others, frustrated and at a loss, and finally used the last The extreme method finally got better slowly. He became a strange person in the eyes of the people in the same company. He spent his time in the practice room every day and refused to miss any class.

Lai Zining really didn't want to go back to the panic about the future full of unconfidence and doubts when he was sent back to China.

If he wants to become good, if he can't dance well, he has to practice until he is better than others. When he has improved his body and rhythm and even feels like a fish in water, he is sweating all over his body and tells himself in the practice room, keep going , If you want to become better and do better than others, you must always persist and work hard.

This goal made him persist for a long time, until something happened later, which made him return to the self-doubt he once had, and even felt that his hard work and persistence were not important, and he was desperately trying to prove himself.

Probably all the hard work and confusion seemed not worth it.

The comfort and worry of the members couldn't calm down the anger and sadness in their hearts, but it didn't help.

Obviously you have worked so hard and paid so much, even if you are injured, it doesn’t matter, so many years of persistence and hard work, but in the end you are completely denied by those non-existent gossips, it’s like the whole world is laughing at you. What are you trying to do?Wasn't it easily defeated?

What you do is not worth mentioning to others. In the eyes of others, it is even inferior to other people's grievances, those sweats, those injuries every time, those unwilling cries that you gritted your teeth and endured. So what if he debuted?There are still more difficulties in front of you, and you may even be knocked down by them and never stand up again.

Almost, Lai Zining was overwhelmed by the darkness. The people in the company had almost left that day, but he lay in the familiar practice room for a long time, thinking a lot, as if he hadn't thought about anything, just staring at Looking at the lines on the ceiling, he got up and looked at himself in the mirror. Sweat was dripping on his forehead, nose bridge, and corners of his mouth. of light.

At that time, he was thinking that no one could defeat him.

I can still work hard.
