Chapter 121 A little progress every day

"Are you confident in your performance this time?"

"have it?"

"When the rankings were announced last time, your good friend Jiang Xia fell to twenty-nine. Besides feeling sad and regretful, how else do you feel?"

"Fear."

"If Jiang Xia is eliminated, who will make you more sad compared to Cao Hui and Zhou Zilin who were in your previous company?"

Jiang Ran had just started "Both..." when she was directly interrupted by the interviewer, "I have to choose one!"

"I have to choose one..." Jiang Ran repeated hesitantly, the alarm in his head was beeping... beeping...". This question was obviously a trap. No matter which one she chose, she would be used to make a fuss about it. After struggling for a long time, she tentatively asked, "Do I think I can do it myself?"

"no."

"If I had to choose one, I think it would be Sister Cao Hui. Because she helps a lot, she really feels a bit like my sister. The most important thing is that I have known her for the longest time. Without her, It’s impossible for me to get to know Zi Lin and Xia Yun who are in the same company as me, and it’s even less possible for me to come here and get to know Jiang Xia and the others. So I feel that Sister Cao Hui’s departure is what I regret the most.”

"If your fans wanted to see you do something, but you might be criticized by a lot of people if you did it, would you do it?"

"Is this a violation of laws, regulations and ethics?"

"no."

"You mean, if there is something that does more harm than good to me, but my fans want me to do it, do you want me to do it?"

"Hmm...yes, that's pretty much what it means."

"If this matter does not violate laws, regulations and ethics, I will consider it. If I think it should be done, then I will do it. If I think it is unnecessary, then I will not blindly follow the fans. Opinions. Because fans only know you through the camera, and what they think is good for you may not be a good thing for you. My point of view on this is that fans’ opinions can be listened to, but You can’t listen blindly.”

“Are you worried that this answer will turn fans off?”

"Worried. But this is what I think. I can't use clichés to fool fans. I think it's better to be sincere."

After the interview, Jiang Ran went back to the training room to continue training. Jian Zhiyao was nowhere to be seen until evening, and she thought he would not come today. But she still had some unanswered questions, so she could only write them down first and ask them again when Jian Zhiyao arrived.

Another day of this training has passed...

"Creak..." With a sound, the door of the training room was pushed open from the outside, and a figure walked in. As he walked, he was still muttering, "Why are the lights not turned off today?", but he saw it within two steps. The figure sleeping in the corner in an extremely twisted posture couldn't help but be startled, "I'll go! Why is there someone here!"

Especially just by looking at her slumped posture, it was impossible to tell whether she had fainted or fallen asleep. Thinking that everyone had been training extra recently and not getting much rest, Lin Luyao suddenly felt worried about something going wrong and hurried over.

"Jiang Ran? Jiang Ran, Jiang Ran... wake up, wake up~ Are you okay?" Lin Luyao gently pushed Jiang Ran's body, softly called her name, and waited until she woke up a little and opened her eyes to take a look. After that, he subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.

Afraid of disturbing her, Lin Luyao deliberately lowered her voice and said beside her, "Why did you fall asleep here? If you want to sleep, go back to the dormitory and go to sleep. It's not good to sleep like this. Your body and cervical vertebrae can't be restrained." .I saw you leaning against the wall as soon as I walked in the door so early in the morning. I thought you had fainted!"

"Huh?" Jiang Ran opened her eyes in a daze and glanced at Lin Luyao again, then slowly closed her eyes and fell asleep, and replied slowly, "I just squinted temporarily, but I didn't expect to fall asleep. I don't want to go back to the dormitory. It takes about an hour to go and sleep there, so if you sleep here, you can sleep a lot longer."

As Jiang Ran answered, she stood up slowly and moved her hands and feet - she had been sitting for too long, her back was sore, her neck was stiff, her feet were a little numb, and she felt uncomfortable everywhere in her body.

"That's what I said, but sleeping on the bed feels different from sleeping here. If you have the chance, it's better to go back to the dormitory. But if you sleep in the training room, I can recommend an artifact to you!" Lin Luyao said Then he walked to the corner of the other side of the wall and found a cardboard that he wrote "Don't disturb when sleeping" with a marker pen. "Look at this. Next time you sleep, put this next to you. This way." Others will know that you are sleeping, right...yue..."

At the end of the sentence, Lin Luyao made an expression of sticking out her tongue and rolling her eyes, vividly expressing what she meant. Jiang Ran couldn't help but laugh along with her, "I learned it! I'll make one when the time comes. Oh, by the way, now. what time is it?"

"A little after five o'clock."

That's right, in the training room at around five o'clock in the morning, the cameraman couldn't bear it anymore and had already gone back to rest. However, cameras were installed in every corner of the training room, and every move was clearly captured. Lin Luyao returned to the dormitory and squinted for two or three hours before coming to the practice room. As soon as she entered the door, she looked at Jiang Ran who was dozing in the corner, and the conversation just happened.

"You came so early, and you didn't go back just after one o'clock or two o'clock, so you just went back and slept for two hours and then came back again?" Jiang Ran couldn't help but sigh and said.

"The rankings are already unstable. Of course you have to work harder! But I think you work harder than me. I finally went back to the dormitory and took a nap. When did you go to bed?"

“I don’t know, I was so sleepy that I couldn’t even open my eyes, so I didn’t care what time it was.”

"You really work hard. If we have a diligence list, you will definitely be on the list. Ah~ By the way, don't take it to heart yesterday's interview with the staff. Don't react too aggressively because of this. You still have to do it. A balance between work and rest is the key. If your body collapses, you will have nothing. As long as you can perform well at the performance the day after tomorrow, I think you can be in a similar state to the last fan meeting, and those netizens will not say anything anymore."

"Use your charm to conquer them and turn everyone who follows you into your fans." Lin Luyao said as she patted Jiang Ran's head encouragingly, curved her lips and gave her a smile. Comforting, "And let me tell you, no star or idol is immediately popular without any controversy. No matter how good you are, they can always find some problems to deny you, you You can take a look to see if what they say is correct. If it is correct, then change it. If it is not correct, just skip it. If everyone cares about it, will they still be alive?!"

This is true, but it is a pity that she is afraid that she does not have the ability to perform well and stand out among so many girls, or even among the female idols in the entire entertainment industry. However, Lin Luyao's last sentence also gave Jiang Ran some new inspiration, and her mood, which was almost breathless, became a little lighter.

Of course, she feels that she is depressed from time to time. The main reason is that she understands the truth, but it is very difficult to do it, especially for a person with a glass heart like her. When she sees criticism, she feels like her heart has been stabbed. I have always been worried about it. From time to time, I will recall in my mind what that comment said about me, and then apply it to myself. The more I think about it, the more uncomfortable I feel.

But...how did Lin Luyao know about her interview yesterday? Didn't she already go back to the training room to practice at that time and wasn't at the interview site?

Jiang Ran hesitated and responded, already maliciously speculating on various possibilities in her heart. For example, the staff told her during a casual chat, for example, someone behind Lin Luyao informed her of the specific situation in the training camp every day, such as... …

"Then are you going back to the dormitory to sleep now?" Lin Luyao asked in a loud voice while doing stretching exercises by herself. She heard Jiang Ran shake her head and said no, and then said, "By the way, Jiang Ran, how do you remember the lyrics?" Okay, do you want me to help you take a look and see if there is anything that needs improvement?"

She had also read some comments online, and some netizens' comments were really unsightly. Of course, these comments are not just for Jiang Ran, but also for other players. Of course, these other players also include herself. But it is undeniable that compared with the negative comments of Jiang Ran, Jiang Ran's negative comments were several times or even ten times more negative than hers. It was indeed a bit excessive.

She is already twenty-two years old. In her eyes, Jiang Ran is just an ignorant little sister. She should always be more tolerant and considerate towards her. And according to her understanding, Jiang Ran is only an eighteen-year-old girl this year. She has never been systematically exposed to vocal music and dance before. She has only practiced for half a year. She is probably reserved to train among the thirty-three contestants now. The one with the least duration.

Now it is really difficult for her to learn and perform now. It’s not that she’s not serious and doesn’t work hard, but some things can’t be accomplished overnight. It takes time to settle and accumulate. Besides, Jiang Ran is already extremely talented. Her vocals are very unique. Although her dancing is a little bit inferior, she can still keep up if she is given time to practice more.

What's more, in a women's team, everyone doesn't have to be an almighty ACE. Everyone has their own position and personality, so that the team can go further!

But netizens don't care about your reasons, they only see the results they want to see. It's your fault if you don't do a good job, and all your explanations are just quibbles in their eyes.
