Boy group: In order to survive, I have to open business

The showcase ended successfully. Xia Xinglang waved to the audience. After he stepped off the stage, he found that his shirt was completely wet. Everyone was in a hurry to take off their clothes, and their necks were covered with sweat.

"Little Wolf," Che Zaixun quickly changed into a loose T-shirt, "Are you suffering from heat stroke?"

Xia Xinglang: "It wasn't that hot at night. It was even hotter during rehearsal yesterday."

It was even worse when Che was training, even his coat was covered in sweat.

Xia Xinglang joked, "Brother Zaixun, are you an angel? The sweat stains on the back of your shirt are in the shape of wings."

Che Zaixun played with the wings of the wing backpack and made flapping motions: "I'm going to fly away."

Xia Xinglang cooperated with him: "Take me and fly away!"

The photographer was taking a behind-the-scenes shot. Che Zaixun bent down in front of him and put his hands behind him to signal Xia Xinglang to come up: "Little Wolf, come up."

Xia Xinglang didn't expect that he would really have to carry him on his back, so he made up his mind and carried Che Zaixun on his back. Che Zaixun carried him on his back for a while and asked with a smile: "Little Wolf, are you satisfied with this space service?"

"I give it five stars." Xia Xinglang put his arms around his neck, wondering how he could be so childish, "Put me down."

Che Zaixun carried him around again, and Xia Xinglang could sense that he was enjoying it: "Isn't it heavy to carry like this?"

Che Zaixun laughed and said, "I carried my brother and cousin like this when I was a child. I also carried the big golden retriever at home."

"Golden Retriever..."

"It's just what I told you before," Che Zaixian laughed to himself, "You're just like the little wolf. You're afraid of fireworks. When you hear the sound of fireworks, you get scared and shrink into your den. It's very cute. Little wolf, you're also very cute."

"me?"

"Cute, very cute." Che Zaixun giggled, "I'll take you flying."

He started panting after playing for a while. Che Zaixun supported his legs from behind and said, "Brother can't fly anymore. I'm so thirsty. My throat is smoking."

The photographer had just finished interviewing Hong Jang-rim and Kim Seung-hyuk, and it was their turn.

Xia Xinglang: "I feel the performance today was very good. The Cupids who were present were very enthusiastic. For the Cupids who were not present, I will also try my best to perform in the future. Please look at me."

Che Zaixun was still panting: "I know a lot of people are thinking about the concept of stars, but why is it that except for the first single, Royal Knights, and Diamond Tears, none of them have anything to do with stars..."

Xia Xinglang: "Because there are Knights of Pentacles in the Tarot cards, and there are also planets made entirely of diamonds."

Che Zaixun looked at him and asked in confusion, "Really?"

Xia Xinglang: "Isn't it? What is Brother Xun thinking about?"

Che Zaixun: "Because the little wolf is the star and you are the center, so you are related."

Xia Xinglang: "Can I understand it this way?"

Cha Jae-hun: "But Little Wolf is a really good name. I know there is Wolf Star, but if you change the order it becomes Star Wolf."

Kim Seung Hyuk came over and said, "Sirius is the brightest star in the night sky, the brightest and brightest, so it's very suitable for Little Wolf."

Che Zaixun nodded.

"Everyone should look forward to the album and listen to it on time." Xia Xinglang waved his hand and whispered to Cheng Xie, "Today is Dong Hao's birthday. I will prepare a surprise when I go back."

Che Zaixun: "Do you want to live broadcast on Bubble?"

Xia Xinglang nodded: "Surprise."

Everyone returned to the dormitory. Yin Donghao rushed to take a shower first, and everyone got ready with their fireworks.

As soon as Dong Hao opened the bathroom door, everyone fired salutes and streamers fell down: "I'm so sleepy, can we have a birthday party tomorrow?"

"live streaming."

"I'm so sleepy now," Yin Donghao yawned twice in succession, "Cupids, watch me live and sleep."

"Where's the cake?" Kim Seung-hyeok pointed at the cake. Cha Jae-hoon held the cake and looked at him expectantly.

Yin Donghao: "Eat it tomorrow. If you can't finish it today, put it in the refrigerator."

Xiao Yu watched Yin Donghao return to his room: "Let him sleep. Donghao had insomnia yesterday and is nervous about today's showcase."

"We're going to be on the music show tomorrow," Xia Xinglang looked at the two people in the team. Hong Zhanglin and Che Zaixun had vague signs of reconciliation, but they just couldn't take that crucial step. As for which step it was, there was no need to say more. "Brothers, take a rest first and get ready."

Generally speaking, idol groups rely on music shows to boost their music performance. Even if they top the charts in the first week, they cannot get the first place, because the score for the first place on music shows is accumulated on a weekly basis. The songs released that week will be settled in the next week, but they still have to go on shows to promote their songs in the first week.

After the showcase on Thursday, they went on "Music Stock" hosted by Xia Xinglang on Friday. This was a three-week promotion schedule. The first week's main song was "Starlight", the second week was "Diamond Tears", and the third week was "Royal Knight". None of the singles were so popular that they vomited, which was very good for their ears.

There are many guests in "Music Stocks" today. There are huge crowds of people backstage when the program is recorded. Basically, after one song is over, the next guest will prepare for an interview, and this cycle repeats. Five groups will be interviewed in this show, including the Cream Group, and Brother Xun's former teammates, who are also the brothers.

We didn't meet backstage because there were too many people. Many groups were releasing summer singles and their promotions were happening at the same time.

"Music! Stock!"

Xia Xinglang was wearing a leather jacket and sunglasses on his shirt pocket. He made his opening remarks as usual: "The center of fashion, the ranking of music, good afternoon, I am your pink-haired little wolf section chief, Xia Xinglang."

Wu Hanyuan: "Whether the stock is going up or down, please look forward to your stock choice this week. Good afternoon, I am the head of Black Puppy, Wu Hanyuan, and I want to announce here that our group has debuted for one year!"

Xia Xinglang applauded and congratulated: "Congratulations, happy first anniversary! We, JP1, have been debuting for 8 months! It's not even a full year yet."

"Anniversaries are a day worth celebrating," Wu Hanyuan said in an unexpectedly serious tone today. "Next we are going to interview a super senior group. It has been five years since their debut!"

Xia Xinglang responded in a coordinated manner: "It's five times as much as you have."

Wu Hanyuan squinted at him: "Hehe, of course you are my senior. Welcome Kream-est! Welcome senior!"

According to the script, the first guest to be interviewed today is not the new group JP1, but the group Para that was acquired by TUBE, which should now be called JESS label. I wonder if all the members of the group are pretty boys.

The five members of Cream Group have traditionally handsome looks, which makes them relatively ordinary in an entertainment industry full of handsome men. As the saying goes, it is better to be ugly than to be mediocre in handsomeness. Having no memorable points is the biggest failure of an idol.

The most talked-about and handsome member of the group is called Han Fan. He looks 70% like a popular senior who retired due to a love scandal. So many people use Han Fan as a substitute. Now Han Fan has taken over Hong Zhanglin's position as captain.

"Hello everyone, we are Kream-est!"

Xia Xinglang applauded in welcome, and the members introduced themselves one by one. It can be seen that because it has been so long since their last comeback, the members were very nervous and were not very comfortable with the camera.

Next came the scripted questions. Xia Xinglang held up the cue card and said, "Senior Han Fan, is the concept of this return about gems?"

Han Fan was so nervous that he rubbed the corner of his clothes with his hand: "We want to show the concept of gemstones sparkling after being polished."

Xia Xinglang made a gesture to encourage others: "Please invite the seniors to come on stage and perform. We are looking forward to the new song "Jewel"!"

After five years of debut, the average age of the members is 24 years old, which seems to be the age for just working outside the entertainment industry, but there are always younger and more handsome idols in the industry. The idol replacement speed is too fast. New groups emerge like mushrooms within a year. Among the big and small brokerage companies, only a few can survive.

Idols with stage experience can always regain their form well, because TUBE does not specially hold a showcase for the group to make a comeback appearance. This is the first stage appearance of the Cream group's comeback.

Xia Xinglang has watched the full version of the MV. He has excellent expressiveness and has digested the dance style very well. Although the MV setting is basically studio shooting, the movements are very neat and it is an excellent sword dance.

They must have rehearsed it many times. Xia Xinglang had noticed before that during the interview just now, the members even raised their hands to adjust their headsets with the same amplitude. This was probably the selling point of the group.

The song is good and the stage is also good.

“Don't let me don/Never let me down…” Han Fan is very suitable for the handsome guy style, because the dangerous aura he exudes speaks for itself. In comparison, other members are not so eye-catching and just average. Perhaps Han Fan is the new core of the group.

I wonder if Brother Zaixun and Brother Zhanglin will see it backstage, and how they would feel when they meet again?
