Chapter 74 Chaoyin Culture poaches people
In the new week, the program team started preparations non-stop, forming a group to sprint into the night groups.
All trainees received a notice from the program team one day in advance, and they had to gather to record group content the next day.
The day before the recording, Liu Rongxuan, the artist director of Chaoyin Culture, personally led the program director and the top twenty trainees on the popularity list to have a private conversation.
Naturally, there are a few people from Fang Xing's team among them.
The content of the conversation, especially Shao Yu and Lu Ming, was Liu Rongxuan's main conversation partner.
Of course, Guo Keda and Wang Huajun were also included in Liu Rongxuan's lobbying list.
The purpose of Chaoyin Culture is very simple. Since Fang Xing refuses to sign a limited group contract, they still want to hold a camp final.
Then poach all of Fang Xing’s teammates first.
Even though Chaoyin Culture looked down on these teammates at first, they still poached them first.
The purpose of this was not to sign these people, but to poach Fang Xing's people and make Fang Xing feel uncomfortable.
That night.
Shao Yu and Lu Ming were called to talk. After returning, they pulled up stools and sat behind Fang Xing:
"Captain, we have something to tell you."
Fang Xing was arranging music while wearing headphones. Seeing that the two of them were acting a little strange, he took off his headphones and asked, "What's wrong?"
Shao Yu and Lu Ming looked at each other, and finally Shao Yu said first:
"The artist director of Chaoyin Culture just came to talk to us, and we talked separately."
"Oh? Chaoyin Culture asked you to re-sign a limited group contract?" Fang Xing could probably guess what happened.
Shao Yu explained: "That's true, but not entirely. In fact, when I participated in the show, I had already signed a group agreement. However, this agreement will not take effect until we form a group. If we do not form a group, it will automatically be invalidated."
In fact.
When selecting trainees for this show, Chaoyin Culture signed a group agreement with all trainees.
This agreement is to prevent trainees from becoming popular on the show but refusing to debut as a group.
Therefore, as long as they are potential trainees, Chaoyin Culture will sign a group agreement in advance.
This group formation agreement stipulates that it will automatically take effect after the group debuts through practice.
If no group is formed, the group agreement will be automatically terminated.
Originally, this contract was originally intended to prevent special cases like Fang Xing from appearing.
However, because Fang Xing was a student at the Donghai Conservatory of Music, he did not sign a group contract and sneaked into the show.
Afterwards, Chaoyin culture originally had time to make amends.
However, Chaoyin Culture didn’t feel that Fang Xing’s popularity could reach this level at first.
So I refused to offer a top-tier contract at the beginning, but by the time I wanted to offer a top-tier contract, it was already too late.
Especially after the Tuantuan official forwarded Fang Xing’s song on WeChat, this matter has been beyond the control of Chaoyin Culture.
Fang Xing's situation is a special case, but Shao Yu's is different.
When Shao Yu first got the opportunity to participate in the show, he naturally wanted to debut in a group.
However, he has graduated two years ago and is relatively older in the men's team draft.
If he had not met Fang Xing, he would most likely have been eliminated during his third performance, and the chance of debuting as a group would be very slim.
"That's right, you have all signed a group contract. So what does Chaoyin Culture want from you?" Fang Xing naturally understood.
Shao Yu explained: "Chaoyin Culture asked us to sign a new contract. As long as we sign this new contract, we will get a spot to debut as a group, but the subsequent competitions will depend on Chaoyin Culture's arrangements."
Fang Xing understood what was going on as soon as he heard it.
The group contract signed by Shao Yu and others is a unilateral contract that benefits Chaoyin culture and does not provide any guarantee to the trainees.
After signing this contract, you will not get a place in the group.
In other words, as long as the trainees perform poorly and fail to form a team, the contract will not be effective.
Now, Chaoyin Culture wants to poach people, and wants to force Shao Yu and others to listen to their arrangements, so they provide group quotas as bait and let them sign a new limited group contract.
Lu Ming quickly added: "I didn't sign a new contract. I came here to make an announcement, and I joined Class D at the beginning. It was supposed to be a round trip.
"I don't want to join a group now. Even if I could join a group, I would probably be the least popular in the group."
His height is not tall enough, and his appearance does not meet the fans' taste.
So he knew very well that even if they did form a group, they would probably be the least popular ones.
Moreover, his ability to reach the finals was entirely due to Fang Xing's guidance.
If Fang Xing is not in the group, even if he forms a group, he will be confused very quickly.
Shao Yu had similar thoughts.
His vocal level, among all the trainees, is at least one of the top three, and he can compete for the top two.
He won't argue about the first one, because Fang Xing has the strongest vocal skills, and he knows this.
In other words, except for Fang Xing, the vocal skills of the other trainees were not very good in his eyes.
If they form a group, he will definitely be the best singer in the group, but he will never be the most popular, and he will not even be among the top three in terms of popularity.
Instead of doing this, it would be better not to form a group and continue to have a good relationship with Fang Xing, which would have a better future.
At this time.
Guo Keda came in from the outside: "Brother Fang, do you know everything? The artist director of Chaoyin Culture talked to me and said that as long as I sign a new contract and listen to them in everything, they will give me a place in the group.
"I refused on the spot. Brother Fang, I'm committed to you. Can you continue to take me with you?"
Fang Xing stood up, looked at the three of them, and said in a solemn tone:
"You need to make your own choices in life. If being in a group is better for you, I will suggest that you debut in a group.
"If you don't want to form a group, then I support your decision.
"As for future development, I may not be able to help. I can only say that if there is anything that needs help with music, I will try my best.
"But again, you need to make your own choices in life.
"Don't let me influence your decision. I won't make your life choices for you. Do you understand?"
Guo Keda stretched out his fist, slapped Fang Xing on the shoulder, and said, "Why are you so serious? I'll just follow you anyway."
"Why is Chaoyin Culture looking for me? Can I not know?
"According to my level, I can only travel for two rounds at most. Now they are willing to give me a place in the group. This is not to value me, but to poach Brother Fang's corner."
Shao Yu and Lu Ming have already thought about it.
"I think very clearly that debuting in a group will not be of much help to me."
"Me too."
The four of them chatted in unison for a while.
At this time.
Wang Huajun came back from outside and hesitated for a while before saying: "Captain, can I talk to you alone?"
"Okay. Let's go outside?" Fang Xing pointed to the door.
So the two of them walked through the corridor and reached the balcony at the end.
Wang Huajun took out a cigarette, put it to his nose and smelled it, then clamped it to his ear without lighting it.
He smoked, but never smoked in training camp.
"Is it a matter of Chaoyin culture?"
In fact, Fang Xing had already roughly guessed what was going on.
"The artist director of Chaoyin Culture said that as long as I obey their arrangements, they will give me a place in the group." Wang Huajun confessed directly.
Fang Xing nodded and said, "Chaoyin Culture also talked to Shao Yu and the others."
Wang Huajun turned around and asked, "If I agree to Chaoyin Culture's conditions, will you be angry?"
"Why should I be angry? It's your choice."
Fang Xing repeated what he had just said to Shao Yu.
Wang Huajun frowned and asked, "Don't you think I look like a traitor?"
Fang Xing shook his head and replied: "There is no betrayal, and besides, you are the only member of our team that I can't help."
Shao Yu and Lu Ming are all singers, and I can continue to guide them in the future.
Wang Huajun is different, he studies classical dance.
Fang Xing couldn't help him much when it came to dancing.
If Wang Huajun has a better way out, he should be allowed to go instead of stopping him.
"If Chaoyin Culture really promises you a place in a group, then you should go. However, the promise of a place in a group must be written into the contract."
Fang Xing stretched out his hand to give him a high-five and joked: "Even if you debut in a group, we will still be friends. Just treat me as an undercover agent in a limited group."
