Chapter 729 The Draft
Meanwhile on the other hand, there was a draft competition going on.
After many rounds of screenings and eliminations there, the two trainees sent by Star Entertainment
reached the final stage smoothly.
Although the draft was coming to an end soon, the fact about the two trainees was highly applaudable.
Undoubtedly the two of them had always given high heated competition to the other participants.
Even in the last round, two of them successfully got the C position, stood in the middle and became the
two most eye-catching contestants there.
Due to their outstanding looks and years long experience of training they made all the heads turn
towards them. The audience’s eyes were keenly focussed on their every movement..
The top five candidates on the talent show were selected based on the highest number of votes they
received.. According to the laid criteria, two of them were just ranked fourth and fifth.
In the end, due to their hard work since the beginning of the talent show, the two trainees made their
debut in a group of three with some high end companies. The popularity which they accumulated with
the help of this talent show, also paved the way for their debut.
Within no time the news of the debut of the five newcomers t was spread all over the world, and they
began to hold concerts everywhere. That move apparently attracted so many local people who turned
into their die-hard fans..
Meanwhile Melissa was sitting in her cabin, watching the performance videos of several candidates.,
Although she was halfway through it, she realized that there was something wrong in the performance Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g
shots.., “How is it possible?” she whispered when she saw the two trainees sent by Star Entertainment
were not to be seen in any performance shots.. Although they were not in C positions there, the
number of shots they had were even less than the audience
Melissa’s disapproving gaze mirrored the screen and she immediately went to investigate the whole
matter.
In addition she noticed that there was a trainee from the company that organized the competition, and
she started comprehending the whole scenario. Undoubtedly, that company had naturally prioritized its
own interests and gave priority to their own trainees.
The other four trainees could only consider themselves a little unlucky. As no matter how well they will
perform, in the end the performance shots will be filled by their own trainee.
With a heavy heart, Melissa pouted. As she was already aware about the tactics played in this
entertainment industry.
She still felt bad as this time it was not anyone else but the trainees from her own company who were
getting this unfair treatment.
Although all of them had made their debut with their own efforts. Once they made it, their actions and
choices would be severely restricted because of the company.
In the company which signed the group of those five finalists, the position of Alice, the trainee from their
own company, was being worshiped by the employees of its own company.
In the past two days, her popularity in front of other entertainers had been very high, her confidence
level had also risen for a while, and her status in the company had naturally increased.
On the other hand, the other four trainees could only watch how the other idols were achieving high in
front of them silently. Since they joined this company, they were mostly invisible and had been forgotten
by people.
That’s why the only thought that occupied their mind was that they might have never left their previous
companies.
Not only this, recently they found something weird in an advertisement shoot.
They saw how the company was only focused on the development and popularity of Alice only.
Although they received the remuneration that five of them deserved. But in the end, only Alice was the
one who shot the advertisement.
As a result, the whole remuneration including their part from the advertisement was taken by Alice
alone.
It was not the first time and they knew it wouldn’t be the last time either. And due to this constant
repetition of acts, it was difficult for them to survive without any income. So, they decided to become
self reliant.
It’s rightly said that time doesn’t stop for anyone and now it’s been a while since the talent show
happened. The other four finalists except Alice had gradually faded out of people’s sight, and their
popularity was not as good as before. Although they started working individually and received
advertisements and publicity by themselves, they still encountered many obstacles.
After all, in the entertainment industry, people’s choice is the greatest strength of an entertainer.
After a few days, they barely received any advertisements. When the company got to know about this,
they were heavily criticized. As a result, companies started to pay less and less attention to them.
“What shall we do now?”
Marcia nervously swallowed her saliva. She was one of the two trainees from Star Entertainment who
was a finalist in the talent show. Now her contract was almost over and her company wasn’t going to
sign it anymore..So, she had nothing to do.
Nora shook his head. Now that the contract signed between Star Entertainment and the group had not
arrived yet, it was impossible for them to pay the liquidated damages.
But if it goes on like this, their lives will probably become more and more difficult, they thought.
On the talent show, the relationship between Alice and Marcia is not bad, but after they signed with this
company, Alice’s inner hypocrisy and indifference were completely exposed, and now she doesn’t pay
much attention to them.
“Are the two of you okay? Mr. Titus will come to check both of you later. But let me tell you one thing,
it’s hard for any of us to see two of you looking so sloppy.”
Renita’s voice came from outside the door. In the past two days, in order to sign Mr. Gibson for the
group they did a lot of hard work and had been cooperating with them in acting. The people above
didn’t watch the concert, as they thought that they were not popular because of their relationship..
When it came to the two of them, Renita, also began to give up on them gradually. In order to get the
appreciation from the audience and to their superiors, they took the initiative to dedicate their resources
tAlice
But she still put on an amiable face in front of Marcia and Nora, which made them believe that Renita
was just fulfilling her obligations.
“understood.”
Nora responded lightly, but his eyes were still full of disappointment.
They realized that they had no ability to change their fate and now only Star Entertainment could help
them.
Meanwhile the two of them met Renita a long time back and
Marcia knew very well what she meant and nodded. Then, while
Renita stopped paying attention to them, both of them straight away went back to Star Entertainment.
When they reached there, the receptionist knew them and sent them straight to Melissa’s office.
“You go to work first, what do you like to eat when you come back home at night? If I get off work early,
I will cook it for you…”
At this time, Melissa was still on the phone with Murray, and the next second, the office door was
pushed open.
“Ms. Meli.”
Nora whispered her name and ran in Melissa’s cabin while almost crying, followed by Marcia.
“Let’s not talk about it, go home in the evening and buy a crayfish, I want to eat that.”Melissa finally
spoke when Murray was in dilemma.
“It’s good.”
There came the doting voice of Murray over there. Melissa saw someone coming in and hurriedly
talked to Murray over there, then hung up the phone.
“What’s wrong?”
Melissa sat up and she led the two of them to the chair placed in front of her wooden desk.
Marcia couldn’t hold it back and cried her heart out and told
Melissa what happened to her. After a moment of silence, Melissa frowned.
She just thought that the situation of the two of them in that company was not easy, and they could
barely make a living.
Although she had an idea of that, she didn’t expect it to be so bad. “You sent us there, you have to help
us now.”
The two of them spoke sternly and asked for Melissa’s help desperately. After listening to them Melissa
narrowed her sharp eyes and her expression was also very serious.
“it is good.”
She agreed that it was originally a matter of the company that the group signed, and she shouldn’t
need to be too concerned about it, but it was her who sent the company’s trainees there because she
wanted the other company to take good care of them. Unexpectedly, such a thing happened.
Melissa came directly to the Personnel Department and fired Nora and Marcia’s manager Renita.
Renita was originally sent by Star Entertainment for this competition, but she unexpectedly started
working for the other company rather than for them which disappointed Melissa. Then, Melissa took
both of them to the group signing company, her eyes were cold, and she was fuming, the way she was
walking on and made people afraid to approach her.
She went straight to the leader in charge of that team, and a shadow sank in front of her eyes.
“Director Lin, do you have anything to say about the trainees sent by our company? Why did you treat
them like this?”
