Nan XiangWan went south to go back and do her homework, and the 10 sets of mock exam papers in the express box she still had not opened.
Who would go give themselves more homework!
She can't even make up for what she's fallen behind on!
At this time, Nan ChaoYang made a video call.
Nan XiangWan: "Hello?"
Nan ChaoYang: "Your mom said come back home and eat dinner when you're free."
Nan XiangWan: "Tell my mom I have to record songs next, so I still can't go back."
Nan ChaoYang: "Okay, your dad asked if you need to go back to school for a few days for the final sprint to the gaokao?"
Nan XiangWan: "Tell my dad to see the situation, I might not."
The schedule afterwards is a bit full, afraid I really can't go back.
Half work and half study is too tiring!
Nan ChaoYang: "Oh okay, your brother asked if you play games?"
Nan XiangWan: "......"
Addicted huh?
Snap!
Nan XiangWan abruptly hung up the phone, ignoring this silly brother.
......
The next day.
The seven girls of Destiny Girls gathered at the South-North Entertainment headquarters.
None of them originally belonged here, but the group was initiated by South-North Entertainment.
So for group activities they would gather here.
But today, they were here to record songs!
In the recording studio, the sound engineer was already prepared and ready.
None of the 7 girls were from big companies, and had never seen such a luxurious recording studio before, so they were all wide-eyed with wonder as soon as they entered.
So curious!
There were a total of 8 songs to record, and Zhao Tiancheng intended for them to record everything within a week.
Their follow up concert tour was already in preparation!
Release a song, then immediately arrange a concert!
Couldn't let Destiny Girls be separated from fans for too long.
First record the 6 songs written by other members, Nan XiangWan's "Wilderness" and "RainCat" were the main tracks, record those when everyone is in peak condition.
Get used to it with the previous ones first.
And the album this time was titled Destiny Eponymous, with two main tracks!
The sound engineer knew the usual level of male and female idol groups, the songs may sound good, but live singing may not necessarily be up to par.
Some people could take a whole day to record one line of lyrics!
The sound engineer had prepared himself for battle, determined to tune these girls well.
But what he didn't expect was.
The seven of them came in with extremely professional quality right from the start!
What tuning?
No need!
Each one of them was a hardened beast competitively selected through auditions.
Go off pitch?
Impossible!
Which of their live performances were not fully open mic?
And they were even live broadcasts, going off pitch would be a huge stage accident, no one would vote for them after that okay!
As for whether the emotion was pulled to the max, they wrote the songs themselves, how could the emotion not be in place?
In short, the seven of them coming to record songs for the first time completely refreshed this sound engineer's knowledge!
Dang!
No wonder they were the hottest new girl group right now, their professional skills were really strong!
On the first day, all 6 songs were recorded complete!
Each song only took a few minutes, but recording separately, harmonies, and so on, came a few more times.
The girls high fived each other in celebration after finishing recording the songs!
Zhu Sha: "Let's record the two main tracks tomorrow right?"
Sha Ling: "RainCat has a simple melody, and fewer harmonies, Wilderness is more difficult."
Deng Si Nan: "I'm really looking forward to Wilderness!"
Zhou Wenxia: "Me too! Just listening to the demo makes my heart swell!"
Yun Qian: "Actually I'm already designing the dance moves, Wilderness is really going to explode!"
Ge Dongxuan: "Go for it! Record it all tomorrow, release the songs the day after, and the day after that start the concert tour!"
Zhao Tiancheng: "......"
No, it's not that fast!
Shoot!
He admitted his mistake!
Who could have thought you all were this good at singing?
Nan XiangWan also came from a stage performance background, she knew a performance needed a lot of preparation.
She asked: "8 songs, choreography and stage design for the concert, plus 8 sets of outfits for 7 people..."
Zhao Tiancheng wiped the sweat from his brow: "None of that is prepared yet!"
Her words were simply morale crushing.
Zhu Sha: "And usually, concerts are two hours or more, eight songs is not enough."
Nan XiangWan blinked: "What do you mean?"
Don't tell her she has to write out a few more songs!
She refuses!
Zhu Sha: "We still need to prepare to sing other songs, to fill two hours.
Zhou Wenxia: "Right, the audience buys tickets to come in, they can't possibly only listen to eight songs and that's enough, even including time for costume changes, we can't make the audience wait too long."
Sha Ling: "Ah? But with the 7 of us, the time it takes for everyone to collectively go off stage to change, will definitely be very long, what to do?"
Deng Si Nan: "We can do this, in between the 8 songs, insert solo performances, singing other songs, which can both reduce the waiting time for the audience to avoid adverse effects, and also give the others time to get ready."
Yun Qian: "Wow! You really deserve your musical theatre background, you understand so much."
Ge Dongxuan: "Oh oh oh! I want to try rapping during my solo!"
Nan XiangWan: "Then I'll sing a sad song, cry them to death!"
Everyone: "......"
Zhao Tiancheng quickly stopped the chitter chatter of these girls: "It's like this, I'll get preparations done as fast as I can here, but for the outfits Hua Wan Entertainment can help out right? Your company signed the top two designers, if we go to book them now we'll never get a spot in line."
Nan XiangWan: "You mean Jing Da Shuai and Monica?"
Zhao Tiancheng nodded: "Monica is a bit easier to book, she just opened up the Chinese market, still quite enthusiastic about work, Jing Da Shuai we can book depends all on his mood."
Nan XiangWan: "That's simple, I'll give them a heads up."
She was friends with both of them, and they had both said if she needed styling in the future just bring it up.
No need to wait in line!
And a discount!
With the huge worry off his chest, Zhao Tiancheng breathed a sigh of relief: "The rest is song releases and stage preparation, South-North Entertainment can handle that, you all just need to focus on recording the songs well tomorrow, don't eat random things, stay healthy, don't end up getting sick by the time the concert comes around and so on, got it?"
Everyone: "Got it!"
The day's schedule was over.
The teammates all went back to the villa, Nan XiangWan went back to the Seasons mansion alone.
Because her teammates could play at night, she couldn't.
She still obediently went home alone by herself, undisturbed to face her homework alone!
The gaokao was only 24 days away ah!
Dinner was still climbing the fence to eat at the neighbor comrade's place.
After eating, the comrade also peeled some walnuts for her, saying it was brain food.
Gu Beihuai: "If there's homework you don't understand, want me to go through the problems?"
Nan XiangWan shook her head: "There are all videos, basically understand after watching once."
Gu Beihuai was a bit disappointed: "Mm, want me to help guess the test questions?"
Nan XiangWan: "Huh? That works?"
Seeing the fish take the bait, Gu Beihuai smiled: "Of course, my test guessing skills are very accurate."
Nan XiangWan got excited: "Then great! Let's go let's go!"
The two passed through the small garden, and came to 2202.
Climbing over the railing, Gu Beihuai took a careful look, thinking a door could be installed here.
This was his first time coming to Nan XiangWan's home, he took a deep breath before following her in.
The furnishings inside the home didn't have a single extraneous thing, looking even a bit empty, mostly just what originally came with this high-end apartment.
The only thing was the second floor training room, outfitted with various different fitness equipment.
Gu Beihuai sighed inwardly, she really was a steely straight girl!
So straight it made people very reassured, but suddenly also felt regretful.
If others can't get her, he would have a hard time too!
Nan XiangWan went south to go back and do her homework, and the 10 sets of mock exam papers in the express box she still had not opened.
Who would go give themselves more homework!
She can't even make up for what she's fallen behind on!
