Chapter 75 1MILLION Dance Studio It’s the beginning of the month again, and it’s time for BD Entertainment trainees’ monthly assessment. The trainees' emotions became increasingly heavy and depressed. The usual laughter and joy gradually faded away, and everyone worked hard in silence, fearing that they would perform poorly in the assessment and miss the chance to enter the debut candidate group. Choi Yuna picked up the vegetable salad she had just finished eating and threw the garbage bag into the trash can in the corner of the corridor. She didn't know what she suddenly thought of, but she just stood there in a daze, staring at the trash can. Coincidentally, Jin Shiming passed by and saw this scene. Jin Shiming still values ​​Choi Yuna, this "strange" child, very much. In his opinion, Choi Yuna is simply an excellent template for trainees. Her self-discipline and hard work are enough to serve as a textbook for girl groups. For example, Choi Yuna likes to eat pasta, but because she is allergic to flour, her stomach has difficulty digesting it. In order to have a better body shape and figure, she decided to give up pasta and only allowed herself to eat pasta once a month.

In contrast, some trainees who need to manage their body shape more have much worse self-discipline. Criticizing Ding Enfei by name, her mind is full of lying down and eating! Just a few days ago, she and her sisters were caught eating hamburgers secretly by the trainee team leader. Finally, the matter was reported to the director, Jin Hengen, who gave him a severe scolding. But if nothing unexpected happens, she will dare to do it again next time! Of course, although they were greedy, Ding Enfei and others were very serious and hardworking when practicing. But compared with Choi Yuna, she always lacks a bit of ruthlessness and resilience. It is precisely because of the subtle differences in details that Choi Yuna is the one who has made the fastest progress among the trainees with weak dance foundation. …… Jin Shiming can more or less understand the torment that the trainees are going through at this stage. In order to vent the negative emotions accumulated in their hearts, some trainees choose to secretly date, while others smoke and drink behind the scenes. What's worse, some people may completely go astray and lose themselves. In comparison, some slightly inappropriate and abnormal behavior is nothing more than finding joy in suffering and self-adjustment. "Yuna, why are you standing here? The test is about to start, go back and prepare. I'm looking forward to your performance this time!" Jin Shiming walked up, patted Cui Yuna on the shoulder, and spoke in a calm and natural tone. He did not go out of his way to show care and condolences, nor did he display excessive enthusiasm. When dealing with different people, you have to choose different approaches based on their different personalities. Like Choi Yuna, she is hard-working and tenacious, and has a strong ability to digest emotions. At the same time, because of her previous failures, she actually lacks confidence and is a little sensitive. Therefore, excessive care and enthusiasm towards Choi Yuna will make her feel a little panic and uneasy, and fall into internal friction of self-denial. Just like Jin Shiming, showing a relatively gentle and natural attitude, plus a little affirmation and encouragement, is just right.

Before the confused Choi Yuna could come to her senses, Jin Shiming took the lead and walked towards the practice room. "Ah~~~ How embarrassing! President-nim, you won't think I have any weird hobbies, right?" Choi Yuna finally reacted and covered her face with her hands, saying shamefully. Beside her, the photographer in charge of shooting the documentary happily moved the camera forward and gave Choi Yuna a close-up. "I was thinking about something just now, so I didn't react in time. When I came to my senses, President Nim had already left. I'm really sorry and very grateful to our President Nim. I will work harder in the future!" Choi Yuna said to the camera with some annoyance. The photographer in charge of the photo shoot was inexplicably moved. Although this strange yet sincere child in front of the camera had not yet made her debut, he was already her fan. …… The first item of the monthly assessment was the debut song "Glass Beads" that Jin Shiming created for the new girl group. Twenty or thirty trainees were divided into three groups in advance and performed in turn. Nearly a month is more than enough time to practice one song. However, the gap between being able to perform and performing well is as huge as heaven and earth. The song "Glass Beads" is moderately difficult to sing, but not easy to dance to. In order to strengthen the core concepts of the new girl group, namely "power", "purity", "passion" and "haze", Jin Shiming designed many clean, youthful and energetic movements in the choreography. If you break down the choreography, the movements are actually not complicated and are mainly based on the regular beat, so it is relatively easy to learn. But as a group dance, the simpler the movements, the more it tests the members' coordination. It will all be clear who has their hands raised too high, whose head is tilted, and whose foot is kicking too slowly. In addition, Jin Shiming's choreography has extremely high requirements for movement. Not to mention the many changes, many times the changes in formation look like detours, as if they are just flying away. This requires members to be very familiar with the dance routines and everyone's positions, and have sufficient trust in each other. Otherwise, either their movements will be out of sync, or they will simply bump into each other. "Ji Hyun Nuna, I was busy with my own things recently, thank you for taking care of the trainees." Jin Shiming said to the woman sitting next to him. "The children are all very hardworking and have made significant progress during this period. It is my honor to be their dance teacher," Lee Ji-hyun replied modestly. She is a dancer, and her stage name is May J Lee. Just last year, she was a member of a dance group in Gangnam District, studying dance with Lia Kim, one of the top female dancers in the peninsula. Lia Kim, formerly known as Funky Lia, whose real name is Kim Hye-ran, is a representative figure among female poppers in the peninsula and even the world. The invincible Lee Hyori is one of Lia Kim's favorite students. However, few people know that Lia Kim was a member of the "1MILLION" dance studio founded by another Peninsula dancer in her early years. The founder of 1MILLION dance studio is Jin Shiming's mother. As far as Jin Shiming can remember, he had practiced dancing with Lia Kim before, and to some extent, the two of them were like senior and junior sisters in the same school. Later, Jin Shiming's mother died in a car accident, and 1MILLION Dance Studio became history. Some of the former dance studio members sought other places to go, while others joined Lia Kim's dance group.

After returning to the Peninsula last year, Jin Shiming took time out to meet up with Lia Kim. Upon learning that the other party was not living a very satisfactory life, Jin Shiming proposed a win-win idea. He funded the reconstruction of the 1MILLION dance studio, with Lia Kim as the actual director of the studio. Jin Shiming gave both shares and management rights, which showed his full sincerity. Not to mention that the two of them had a close relationship, Lia Kim agreed on the spot and rebuilt the 1MILLION dance studio at the beginning of this year. With this relationship, BD Entertainment and 1MILLION Dance Studio are naturally as close as brothers. So, Jin Shiming asked Lia Kim for help and she recommended May J Lee, whom she was quite optimistic about. BD Entertainment needs dance teachers, and in the future it will need a large number of choreographers and dancers. The 1MILLION dance studio also needs to expand its business and provide a stage to show off its muscles to increase exposure. Both sides got what they needed and hit it off immediately.
