SFR: Chapter 16

The trainees had done a good job of styling and were different from the rehearsal. They were more handsome and better looking.

A group of people backstage were stunned. Then they screamed in their hearts and sent exclamation marks in the WeChat group.

The students of Z College basically knew that there was a program for trainees, but the school didn’t allow onlookers to watch the rehearsals. They could only wait for the official performance, so they were all looking forward to it.

Finally, a drama ended, and two humorous hosts came up again.

They first praised the previous program without hesitation. Then they laid the groundwork for the next one.

One of them said, “Speaking of talents, our Z College is full of celebrities and is a gathering of heroes. Some of them are very handsome. They are so handsome that I thought they were stars when seeing them walk on the street.”

The other person said, “Is it possible that they will become stars in the future?”

The audience had a hunch when they heard the word ‘star.’ They immediately screamed.

The invited guests in the front row didn’t know the truth. But listening to the reactions on the scene, they all had vague guesses in their hearts.

The two hosts briefly talked about the trainees before finally announcing the show.

“Okay, I believe that everyone can’t wait. Now, I will invite Xing Shi from the School of Mechanical Engineering and his trainee partners to bring us an audio-visual feast!”

In the midst of enthusiastic applause and cheers, the first group of trainees came on stage.

Several of them were wearing light-colored clothing and started moving as soon as the music started playing.

The movements weren’t difficult, but the rhythm of the music was very strong and each step was accurate. This made people want to follow the rhythm. The team changed its formation three times. In the end, it gathered in the middle and finished with a chest-shaking movement of the person being surrounded.

Next, they scattered to the left and right. The second group behind them was ready and quickly took over.

They were dressed brightly, with a strong sense of rhythm, and were full of vitality.

The third group was a robot dance. The movements were like a set program, which was very enjoyable to watch.

The fourth group was jazz. Instead of being sexy and enchanting, they had a sense of strength. They danced in a cool and handsome manner… Group after group, the colors of the costumes gradually became darker, and the movements became increasingly vigorous.

Xing Shi danced hip-hop right in the middle.

His hair was dyed a cold brown color, and his superior body proportions made him very conspicuous in the group. The audience had been using their phones to zoom in. Their screams rose again when they saw him coming up.

A short piece of music was about to end. Xing Shi raised an eyebrow and smiled at the audience. Then he pushed off from the ground with his right hand and his body instantly soared into the air.

“Ahhhh!”

Xing Shi ended with this move and paved the way for the next group.

The next group was doing breakdancing, leg rows, windmills, big floor moves… They were playing with high difficulty moves.

Once they finished, the rest of the groups had changed into the same black t-shirts as them and returned to the stage together.

Everyone lined up. The group dance was simple but powerful. Their movements were uniform, and the momentum was overwhelming. It could be called a visual enjoyment.

The audience’s screams never stopped.

Various styles of dance, various handsome guys, and they could see it for free. So happy!

The last move was completed, and the screams rose again.

The trainees stood up, bowed, and looked up.

Screams, applause, a sea of people… the boiling waves were full of power as if hitting their hearts directly. This was the path they wanted to take in the future.

Everyone was excited. Some people couldn’t help having red eyes.

Xing Shi quietly looked ahead and heard the system asking in his mind, “How is it? Do you feel pretty good?”

He hummed and said, ”It is okay.”

He had been very serious in every training since he transmigrated. It was just because he didn’t want to let people down.

He didn’t know the purpose and mood of ‘himself’ when signing the contract. Maybe it was to anger his father, or maybe he really wanted to become a star. He couldn’t find the answer, but he was at least still on this road.

Standing here at this moment, he felt… not bad.

He suddenly saw Fu Xiuning.

Fu Xiuning had started a company before graduation. He had such a promising future that the school arranged a front position for him.

The young boss was clapping at a steady speed. Xing Shi couldn’t see his specific expression but knew this person should be no different from usual. He would look the same even if the sky fell.

He heard the people on his left and right say they wanted to bow again. He followed them to bow again and turned to leave the stage.

Just after taking two steps, a loud roar suddenly burst out from the audience.

“Xing Shi, the brothers want to give birth to a monkey for you—!!!”

The whole audience instantly laughed. Feng Zifan and the others staggered and almost choked from laughter.

Xing Shi recognized that they were his roommates. He turned around, smiled at them, and left.

The efforts that lasted for over a month came to a successful conclusion. The trainees got on the bus and talked and laughed. They discussed whether they should have a good meal at noon together.

The teachers happened to hear this and said, “The boss said that today is a holiday. If you have a meal together, the company will reimburse you.”

Everyone cheered and started discussing what to eat.

On the other side, the afterglow of the dance hadn’t faded yet. The chat group was full of photos of the handsome guys, and the atmosphere was comparable to the New Year.

One of the students was an uploader. Since she learned that there were trainees coming to the school to perform, she mobilized all her friends to help film. At this time, she got the videos they shot, collected materials from various groups and added the things she filmed. Then she rushed to the dormitory to edit them. She was busy until the evening when she clicked to publish with satisfaction.

This uploader had 130,000 fans. The moment the new work was reviewed, someone discovered it.

The title of the video was simple: Come in and enjoy the appearance. Trainees appeared at Z College’s anniversary celebration!

They opened it curiously and learned the whole story through the subtitles. It turned out that a student signed a contract with an entertainment company to be a trainee. He brought his friends to perform at the school anniversary celebration.

The uploader had a certain strength and the angle switching was very smooth. It was better than the fixed camera position.

As they watched the show, the fans thought to themselves, ‘Okay, okay, this is a dimensionality reduction attack, so cool.’ They reached out to click the like button, only to see that the video wasn’t over yet.

The next second, Xing Shi appeared on the screen. It was a close-up, and he smiled in a fancy manner.

The fans’ hands that were poking at the screen suddenly paused. Huh?

Then the screen changed to Yu Yi, who had a delicate appearance. It was also a close up and he smiled sweetly. Then it was replaced by another person. The careful makeup wasn’t in vain. Every close up looked good.

After more than ten people, Xing Shi appeared at the end again. It was the smile when he turned back after he left the stage. Unlike the dazzling first time, this smile was a bit indulgent and had a completely different taste.

The fans: “!!!”

Everyone’s blood was boiling. They dragged back the progress bar and saw that there were already many barrage comments.

[Ahhh, I can do anything for you! I can do anything!]

[You are ignorant. You should put the end content first.]

[I knew it wasn’t simple from the beginning. This is a famous beauty lover. Why would she only show us the performance?]

[Why is there no such handsome guy in our school?]

[One minute, I want to know all his information!]

[Which company is this trainee from? Has he debuted yet? What is his name?]

[June Culture? Our Brother Yi’s company!]

[Yi fan checking in~]

The video was transferred to other platforms.

The anniversary celebration had trainees performing, which made people curious. Moreover, they danced well. The most important thing was that the ending really looked good, not to mention that Qi Changyi was involved in this matter… So after a night and a morning of heating up, it rushed to the end of the hot search list.

Xing Shi and the others had just finished harsh training.

They were about to go to eat when the head of the department came and told them not to speak casually on Weibo.

Everyone became energetic when they heard this and hurriedly opened Weibo. They thought it was gossip about a celebrity in the company, but it turned out to be their hot search.

“F*k, we are on the hot search!”

The first person who discovered it shouted excitedly. The others, who were slower, were surprised and sped up their actions.

Everyone walked to the dining hall while browsing their phones. They found a seat and continued to read the comments, not caring about eating.

Xing Shi wasn’t among them.

He picked a few dishes he liked and started eating happily.

He sat at the same table with Feng Zifan and Yu Yi. They had also grabbed food, but they were looking at their phones, and the chopsticks in their hands hadn’t moved for a long time.

Yu Yi was edited into the video, and many people were attracted by his looks.

Feng Zifan was also included a bit because he stood next to the person during the dance.

He searched through the comments for a long time before finally seeing a comment that said, ‘The gray-haired one next to the little beauty is also good.” He felt relieved and looked at Xing Shi. “So many people are licking your face. Don’t you want to take a look?”

Xing Shi said calmly, “This is normal.”

Feng Zifan couldn’t refute it. After all, he was also stunned when he saw Xing Shi for the first time.

He asked, “How do you think the company will handle this?”

Xing Shi replied, “I don’t know. Just follow their arrangements.”

The artist management department of June Culture had a mature mechanism.

After they discovered the signs online, they held a meeting and decided to create personal accounts for the trainees on major platforms to take advantage of the popularity. Then they would post some training routines to attract the attention of fans.

However, they still wanted to maximize the popularity. So after asking Fu Xiuning for his opinion, they contacted Qi Changyi.

Qi Changyi was sitting in the airport waiting room at this time.

His new movie was about to be released, and he was currently doing the promotional shows.

For this filming, he had long hair which was tied up casually. He looked unrestrained and uninhibited.

At this moment, he heard his assistant calling him, and he lazily opened his peach blossom eyes. “What’s the matter?”

The assistant gave a brief account of the incident.

Qi Changyi learned that it was a trainee from his own company and decided to cooperate with the publicity. Then he continued to close his eyes and rest. “Find the video. I’ll take a look at it later.”

The assistant sat back and found the video. She watched it from beginning to end and was immediately shocked. “So handsome!”

The assistant director was sitting nearby. He leaned over to take a look and was stunned.

Then he took out his phone and opened the video. After pausing the video, he walked to Director He and said, “The new trainee is so handsome.”

Director He just wanted to sleep, so he said disdainfully, “Get out of the way. I won’t look at it. No matter how handsome he is, can he be more handsome than my son?”

The assistant was curious. “Director He’s son is handsome?”

Director He replied, “That’s right. I’m not exaggerating. If he was in the entertainment industry, there would be no chance for these little brats.”

The assistant director pushed the phone in front of him. “Take a look, just one glance.”

Director He glanced at it with disdain. Then his expression instantly froze.

Suddenly, he stood up and grabbed the phone. He said incoherently with a look of shock on his face? “What? Trainee? Who? Huh?”
