Chapter 40 The Next Girls' Generation Ding Enfei's personal skills and the show effect are perfect! One of the overall trends in the idol industry in recent years is that it is becoming more and more people-friendly. Especially in Japan, Akimoto Yasushi's opening and closing system can be said to have created a glorious era of popular idols. Let’s look at Girls’ Generation, who have reached the top of Peninsula. They are also very down-to-earth and have a high national popularity. In a nutshell, today’s idols are no longer just floating clouds high above us, and the boundary between idols and fans is becoming increasingly blurred. Idols who can form a two-way interactive and positive communication with fans are often more likely to attract fans. In order to make the audience laugh, Ding Enfei can openly dress up as "ugly" without caring about her image at all. This kind of courage and awareness is in line with the positioning of an idol. There are many idols with good looks, but there are only a handful of them who are so good-looking that they can make a living just by looking good. After all, if they really had such good looks, they would have been poached to become actors long ago. How could they be willing to be an idol at the bottom level? It's not enough to rely on your looks, and you're not qualified to rely on your works and abilities. And yet you're still too embarrassed to please the audience and fans. It can only be said that you don't know your own worth and don't understand the nature of the idol industry. Look at the second-generation girl groups on the peninsula who are competing fiercely. No matter whether you are fairies or queens on the stage, don’t you still wear flowery pants, play in the mud, catch chickens, and shovel cow dung in variety shows? "Enfeixi, you passed the test!" Jin Shiming did not hesitate to express his praise and clapped his hands.
He really admired trainees like Ding Enfei who were clear-headed. Even though her singing and dancing skills were a little poor now, these could be improved through training and practice. On the contrary, Jin Shiming doesn't want the kind of trainee who is arrogant because of his talent and has low IQ and EQ. "Kangsang Hamida, please take care of me in the future!" Ding Enfei jumped twice with excitement, and then kept bowing to the examiner to express her gratitude. After returning to the corner and sitting down, Ding Enfei, who had put her worries aside, moved closer to Huang Enfei, and the two began to whisper to each other. "Ouni, you passed the rough card test!" Huang Enfei congratulated in a low voice. "Great, we all passed!" Ding Enfei never faded the smile on her face. "I'm quite conflicted now. Should I go for Big Hit's audition?" Huang Enfei's face suddenly frowned and she said in distress. She had originally planned to audition for Big Hit today, but now she has passed the trainee selection for BD Entertainment. Should she go for the Big Hit audition as originally planned, or should she just decide on BD Entertainment? Based on what Huang Enfei has personally seen and heard, the environment and conditions of BD Entertainment are definitely not as good as those of Big Hit. But the atmosphere at BD Entertainment is quite good. The employees do not have the mysterious superiority that some companies have. They are very enthusiastic and diligent in receiving and guiding these trainees. Needless to say, BD Entertainment has a young and promising president, Jin Shiming. Jin Shiming, who is only in his early twenties, is already a cutting-edge producer who has written several hit songs. Will his future achievements be inferior to Big Hit's Bang Si Hyuk? "After passing the audition of one company, it is not a good idea to immediately go to audition of another company. Moreover, the two companies are so close to each other. If some rumors get out, it may affect your future debut." Ding Enfei analyzed seriously. Don't be fooled by her cute and seemingly brainless appearance, but after all, her grades are among the best in junior high school. She has been a child star and appeared in TV dramas. She has quite rich experience. How could she be a naive and naive girl? In fact, Huang Enfei already had a certain inclination in her mind. After listening to Ding Enfei's analysis, she completely gave up the idea of going to Big Hit for an audition. "Ouni, we can practice together again in the future!" Huang Enfei rubbed against Ding Enfei with a little bit of coquettishness. "Well, but we still have to keep working hard and strive to debut together!" Ding Enfei said with a look of longing. "I wonder how strong the trainees of BD Entertainment are? The audition threshold is so strict, we won't be at the bottom after we get in, right?" Huang Enfei said anxiously, not very confident in herself. "Your strength has been praised by the president, so it must be not too bad. As for me, I am so inferior!" Ding Enfei pouted, feeling disappointed. Jin Shiming’s comments on her just now are not optimistic! …… In this audition, only five trainees were qualified. Including Jin Shaoqing and other trainees who entered BD Entertainment first, the company's current number of reserve trainees has exceeded 20 people! If nothing unexpected happens, the members of BD Entertainment's first girl group will be selected from these trainees.
"Brother Jungtae, please go to China in the future and try to bring back a few suitable trainees." Jin Shiming turned his head and said to Hong Jungtae who was sitting next to him. "President nim, are you planning to add Chinese members to the team?" Hong Zhengtai immediately understood Jin Shiming's thoughts. "The market on the peninsula is so small. In recent years, many groups have been trying their best to enter Japan, but they don't know that China is a blue ocean." Jin Shiming nodded. His nationality is there, which means that BD Entertainment is destined to be more like an outsider in the eyes of people on the Peninsula, and the groups launched by the company in the future will inevitably be subject to some prejudice. Therefore, BD Entertainment must pay more attention to the Chinese market and in turn play to the advantages of Jin Shiming's nationality. The same logic applies to adding Chinese members to the group. From the perspective of Chinese fans, if a company is run by their own people and there is a group owned by their own people, they should support it even if they are not fans, right? With the popularity among passers-by as a foundation, BD Entertainment will then arrange a complete set of fan-pampering packages for Chinese fans, allowing Chinese fans to stand up and chase their idols, and no longer be bullied by companies like . and Jiangyouping! To put it bluntly, the seats under other companies' butts mean that they cannot raise the Chinese market to the same level as the mainland of the peninsula. No matter how much money Chinese fans spend, they still won’t be taken seriously, and are even treated worse than fans in Southeast Asia! In contrast, Jin Shiming and BD Entertainment are naturally deeply tied to the Chinese market. As long as they don't do anything that hurts the feelings of Chinese fans, it will be easy to support BD Entertainment given the loyalty of Chinese fans. "President Nim, since we are going to add Chinese members, do we also have to consider adding island nationalities or other foreign members?" Hong Zhengtai asked. "I have my own arrangements for the island country." Jin Shiming said confidently. The Chinese market is certainly important, but the island country is at least the second largest music market in the world. What's more, Jin Shiming has experience in activities in island countries and has accumulated some connections. There is no reason for him not to get his hands on this delicious piece of cake. During the half year when DSP sent him to the island country, Jin Shiming was not idle and made some arrangements in the island country in advance. "By this calculation, our company's first girl group will also be a large one with a large number of members. I just wonder if it can become the next Girls' Generation?" Hong Jung-tae said with anticipation. "Why do you want to be the next Girls' Generation? Wouldn't it be more interesting to surpass Girls' Generation and be the first one yourself?" Jin Shiming said with a chuckle. (End of this chapter)
