Chapter 53: Even a ten-year-old fan still has a gap After finalizing the contracts of Cheng Xiao and Saito Asuka, Jin Shiming personally brought the two newcomers to the practice room. A group of trainees who were practicing their debut song "Glass Beads" saw Jin Shiming leading two strangers in, they immediately stopped dancing and walked forward to greet and ask questions. "Sorry to interrupt your practice and introduce two new trainees to you. This is Cheng Xiao from China, and this is Saito Asuka from the island country. I hope everyone can get along well in the days to come." Jin Shiming introduced. "Nice to meet you. I'm Saito Asuka. Thank you for your guidance." Saito Asuka has been learning Korean for nearly a year. Although she doesn't speak Korean very fluently, she can still cope with basic daily communication. As for Cheng Xiao, who had never learned Korean, she had to greet him in junior high school English: "Hello, my name is ChengXiao, nice to meet you." Ding Enfei, who was closest to her, responded subconsciously: "Nice to meet you'too'!" The emphasis on the word "too" at the end is really a bit like "father-in-law". But Ding Enfei's tone was quite cute, so much so that Jin Shiming couldn't help but laugh out loud. Among BD Entertainment's current trainees, Ding Enfei, who was born in 97, can be completely classified into the older group.
However, her appearance and behavior are so soft and cute that no one would doubt that she is the youngest member. "Shaoqing, Shizheng, they both just arrived and are not familiar with everything. Please take more care and help take care of them." Jin Shiming waved to them. As the two unnies who are the most patient and caring among the trainees, Kim So-jeong can speak a little Japanese, and Kim Se-jeong is quite proficient in Chinese. Kim Se-myeong can relax by entrusting the newcomers to their care. "They will be your roommates from now on. If you have any difficulties in your daily life, you can ask them for help." Jin Shiming switched the language again and said to Cheng Xiao and Saito Asuka. Among the trainees recruited by BD Entertainment, some are weekend trainees who only come to the company for training after school and on weekends. There are also some trainee dormitories that live nearby but have not moved into the company's dormitories. Therefore, there is not a shortage of dormitory beds at present. The room where Jin Shaoqing and Jin Shizheng lived had an empty double bunk bed, which was just right for the two newcomers. A year later, the new girl group entered the closed training phase, and all selected trainees were forced to live in the dormitory to facilitate unified management. By then, the dormitory we rent now will be too crowded, and we will have to move to a bigger house in advance. Kim So-jeong and Kim Se-jeong greeted the two newlyweds in their native languages, which immediately brought them closer to each other and made Cheng Xiao and Saito Asuka feel much more at ease. It is a great blessing to come to a foreign country alone and meet seniors who speak the same language and are caring towards you. "You have practiced hard these days. Do you want any reward?" Jin Shiming asked with approval as he looked at the girls who were sweating profusely while practicing. Perhaps inspired by the debut plan, these trainees have been very hardworking recently. The teachers in charge of teaching them have often praised them in front of Jin Shiming. Jin Shiming naturally saw everything, and when he came to the practice room today, he wanted to give them some rewards within his ability. "President Nim, I want a mainland version of your album!" Ding Enfei raised her hand first. As soon as Jin Shiming's second mini album "Spring" was available for pre-sale on Peninsula, Ding Enfei placed an order immediately. However, due to lack of information, she had no idea that there was a special edition of this album for mainland China. Special edition! First edition! And the one with out-of-print peripherals!
When she thought about what she had missed, Ding Enfei was extremely heartbroken. At this moment, Jin Shiming gave her the opportunity to make a wish, and she immediately thought of asking for an album. "I want one too! Preferably one with a TO signature!" Choi Yuna's eyes lit up and she nodded continuously. Since it was revealed that Ding Enfei was the one who "ran away behind Shiming's back" in the previous post online, Choi Yuna's "ten-year old fan" purity has been seriously challenged. But it doesn’t matter. If the purity is not enough, you can make up for it by spending money. Cui Yuna spared no expense and found a Peninsula student studying in China on the Internet and commissioned him to purchase a copy of Jin Shiming's album at a premium. Choi Yuna was also very angry at the time, but for the sake of the album which was of great collection value, she gritted her teeth and agreed to the other party's high price. Imagine receiving an album that you spent a huge amount of money on, and then accidentally showing it to your friends. How envious their faces would be. Choi Yuna immediately felt that the money was well spent! Hehe, I can also tease Ding Enfei then. What do you mean you've been a fan for ten years? You don’t even have an album that was first released in mainland China, and you still deserve to be called a ten-year-old fan? Now, when Choi Yuna heard Ding Enfei asking for an album as a reward, she immediately couldn't sit still. If Jin Shiming agreed, she would not only have wasted a lot of money, but also lost the opportunity to tease Ding Enfei. However, Choi Yuna still hopes that Kim Se-myung can fulfill the reward. After all, that was an album given to me by Jin Shiming himself. If it also came with a TO signature, its commemorative significance would be maximized. As a fan, the temptation of this reward is so great that it is simply irresistible! "Oppa, I want your album too! If I pre-order it now, I don't know when I can receive it!" Kim Sejeong followed suit. It is true that her favorite idol is IU, but that is because Kim Se Myung has long surpassed the category of idol in her heart. In the early years, Kim Sejeong would ask Kim Semyung to reserve a copy of various materials from his debut for her, and those materials are still carefully kept in Kim Sejeong's room. Even Choi Yuna and Ding Eunbi, two ten-year-old fans, may not be able to beat Kim Sejeong in terms of the quantity and quality of their collections. I can only say that even a fan who has been a fan for ten years still has a gap! "President Nim, we want one too!" "If I could receive a signed album from a senior, I would be very touched and would practice even harder!" "I will put the album by my bed so that I can see it every day when I wake up and go to sleep, to motivate myself to debut soon!" A group of trainees started to agree. However, no one had the EQ to drop and said something disappointing like they didn't want Jin Shiming's album. "As for the first edition album in mainland China, there are only 2 copies in total, and all of them have been pre-sold. However, the producer sent a batch of samples to the company in advance. The quantity is not large, so one copy is enough for each of you." Jin Shiming said. He doesn't have many relatives and friends left in the country, so these albums would just be wasted if he kept them at the bottom of the box. It would be better to give them to these girls as a souvenir. It's nothing more than taking the trouble to sign your name and write a few words of encouragement. If he could really give the girls some strength or encouragement, Jin Shiming would think that this would be the greatest recognition of his identity as a singer. "Just rewarding you with a copy of my album always feels like you're being cheated. How about this, for the next mini album "Summer", I'll pick a few of you to feature on the songs or star in the music video." Jin Shiming pondered for a moment and said with a smile.
