Chapter 700 New Year's Day Concert
"call……"
The lift slowly descended, and Feng Ying breathed a long sigh of relief, her heart finally settling down.
Not only her, but all the other members of the White Sugar Band breathed a sigh of relief.
Tonight is the annual New Year's Day concert of Shengshi Entertainment Media Group, and the venue is in the Zhonghai Stadium.
In addition to making money, Shengshi Group's annual New Year's Day special concert also has a purpose of giving the group's newcomers a chance to show themselves.
First, use the group's old top stars to ensure the attendance base, and then let the newcomers show up to make themselves familiar to the audience, so as to expand the popularity of the newcomers.
Of course, not every newcomer has the opportunity to perform on this stage. Every year, there are only one to three spots for newcomers to appear.
The newcomers who can perform at the New Year’s Day concert are definitely the newcomers that the group has been vigorously cultivating in recent years. If they want to stand out from a group of trainees, they must have extremely strong abilities themselves. After standing out, they must be able to gain the attention of the group’s senior management, which is even more difficult.
Moreover, if the performance is not well received after going on stage, the group will also adjust the training strategy later. Everything is linked together and there cannot be the slightest mistake.
The Baitang Band is a new band that joined during the summer vacation. When Feng Ying, the team leader, learned that the Baitang Band could perform on stage, she was not very happy but rather a little worried.
Competing for resources is like crossing a single-plank bridge. There are countless people waiting for you to fall down, and then they will take your place and occupy the resources that originally belonged to you.
As a fledgling new band, White Sugar was exposed to the public too early, which inevitably aroused the jealousy of many other new and even veteran artists.
Feng Ying put a lot of thought into this performance, and the other members of the Baitang Band also put in 200% effort during rehearsal and performance, which led to the wonderful performance on stage just now.
One song, three or four minutes long, no one knows how much effort they put into completing the performance perfectly.
The moment ended perfectly and everyone felt relieved.
The performance tonight was very good. The sweet song of Baitang Band won countless applause and cheers. After they came off the stage, in just a few minutes, the four words "Baitang Band" became a hot search.
After that, it depends on the company's operations.
More than ten minutes after the Baitang band left the stage, Lin Qiong, wearing a handsome evening gown tailored for her by the company, slowly walked to the waiting area of the lift.
Then it was his turn to perform.
If there is a little bit of nepotism between the White Sugar Band and Gong Yoo, then Lin Qiong relied purely on his hard power to win his spot on stage.
He didn't seem to have much emotion about the stage he was about to take.
Yes, he still had that poker face that showed he was uninterested in everything, as if the upcoming performance in front of more than 70,000 people was not an important matter to him at all.
From the time he was selected to participate in the performance until he went on stage today, he had hardly practiced. He was always so calm and composed, and his true strength could not be seen at all.
Feng Ying looked at Lin Qiong and felt that he was like an emotionless robot.
How could a haughty and self-righteous guy like Lin Qiong like me?
Thinking back to what Bai Xuezhou had said to her before, Feng Ying felt it was outrageous.
As the stage slowly rose, Lin Qiong suddenly looked at Feng Ying.
The moment their eyes met, Lin Qiong...suddenly smiled.
Yes, that's right!
He laughed!
It’s incredible!
Lin Qiong's performance was perfect, impeccable.
His original song "Cool Girl" received countless applause and cheers.
He still had that calm expression, bent slightly, bowed, said his exit words, and then walked off the stage.
After Lin Qiong stepped down from the stage, the first thing she did was look at the place where Feng Ying had been sitting to rest, but she had already left.
Lin Qiong's exclusive agent came over. He was a slightly plump boy who had just joined the company and had a lively personality. The agent said happily: "Brother Lin, our performance today was amazing. The advertising resources for the new products in early spring will definitely..."
"I'm tired. I don't want to talk about this."
Lin Qiong interrupted her manager's rapid-fire chatter, pursed her lips and asked, "Where's the White Sugar Band?"
The agent thought for a moment and said, "Their captain just said he was hungry. He might be eating in the lounge right now."
"Ha~"
Lin Qiong suddenly laughed and said, "He must have sneaked out of the stadium and bought food from a roadside stall at the entrance!"
"Ah?" The agent was stunned for a moment, then asked, "Is this true? Brother Lin, why do you seem to know them so well? Brother Lin, do you not like them very much, so you are targeting them like this..."
"Shh!"
Lin Qiong covered her agent's mouth with her hand and said, "Don't guess randomly and stop talking nonsense."
After Lin Qiong finished speaking, she walked out of the backstage.
"Where are you going, Brother Lin?"
The agent chased after him.
"Let's go to the door for some midnight snack."
"Brother Lin, you can't go out. If you go out, you will cause a riot."
"Forget it. I'm not a big star. Not many people know me. How can I cause any commotion?"
……
At the entrance of the gymnasium, several members of the White Sugar Band sat together, eating snacks from a roadside stall and chatting.
Xiong Shou said, "Sister Ying, what we are saying is, is that kid Lin Qiong targeting us?"
Feng Ying asked back: "Why do you say that?"
Xiong Shou said, "This guy deliberately moved his performance to the same stage as ours. Isn't he trying to outdo us?"
Chen Sijian also nodded: "That's right, ever since he came, I felt that this guy was working against us openly and secretly!"
Wei Ming, who doesn't like to talk much, rarely spoke today and said, "I just noticed that when he came on stage, he smiled provocatively at Sister Ying."
"Ah, but..." Su Ya, who was eating a giant squid, suddenly said, "But, I think that smile of his shouldn't be a provocation, right?"
"Xiao Su, you are still too naive." Xiong Shou raised his hand and pointed at Su Ya, saying, "He didn't smile in the morning or in the evening, but he had to smile at Sister Ying when the elevator came up before going on stage. And he only smiled at Sister Ying. Sister Ying is the captain of our band. What else could she have done if not a provocation?"
"Is that so?"
Su Ya blinked. Her intuition told her that Lin Qiong should not be a bad person, but the analysis of several team members was also correct, so she herself could not tell whether Lin Qiong was a good person or a bad person.
Feng Ying shook her head and said, "I support Xiao Su's point of view. We are from the same school. Lin Qiong should not have any ill will towards us."
Xiong Shou was immediately unhappy. He said, "This guy probably targeted us just because we went to the same school. Sister Ying, think about it. Our group was the only one in the entire music department that was signed by Shengshi Group. The others all went to Tianlai Company. Lin Qiong also went to Tianlai. How could such a proud person like him have never suffered such injustice? So he left Tianlai and went to Shengshi. This black-bellied guy targeted us everywhere just to get revenge..."
Before Xiong Shou could finish his words, someone patted him on the shoulder.
"If I really had this ambition, I would have become a big star long ago."
