Debut or Die - Chapter 99
If I can’t debut, I’ll get sick to death Episode 099
Actually, I expected that the preparation for the 2nd album would go smoothly.
It’s because the company staff, who tasted hell while preparing for their debut album, tried to start preparing for the next album unconditionally early.
“The candidates for b-side songs are almost filled, and within this pool, we plan to select and form them according to the album concept. The rest will be taken out or dropped for the next album.”
“yes.”
The only problem is that the head of the headquarters did not throw away his self-made mulberry.
“Since we have plenty of time this time, please discuss the title song thoroughly and tell us slowly.”
“thank you.”
“All right!”
It’s because you passionately delayed producing the title song this time as well.
‘… Was the success of the debut album the cause?’
It was clear that he thought his ideas worked well in the entertainment industry as well.
However, this time I was fortunate to have plenty of time. The deadline was set for more than two months, and the song was almost already out.
Thanks to that, the complexion of the members was very good.
“Let’s choose a good song this time too.”
“Are you looking forward to Rabin’s arrangement already?”
“thank you.”
Even when the concept was still undecided and asked to pick three songs out of the 20 title candidates, a hopeful atmosphere was created.
… However, after a few days, I came to think that self-made was better.
* * *
“… Collabo?”
“Yeah that!”
I thought it was cheap from the moment the head of the headquarters suddenly called, but I didn’t know that a bomb like this would come out.
“which… Is it okay if I ask if you are talking about a collaboration?”
“Now look.”
The head of the headquarters handed out the documents with a confident expression on his face.
It caught my eye from the big letters.
[New business proposal]
[Mobile game]
[T1 Place Co., Ltd.]
“… … ?”
“This game is being developed by a venture acquired by T1 as a subsidiary, and it feels like it will really fit. The timing is perfect. If you collaborate with our testa, you can see the synergy. uh? It’s a game, so it’s easy to grasp the concept, and I like it.”
The head of the headquarters, who poured out a line, added the last words with a happy face.
“This is an internal document, and I believe in our testa and show it. Just look here, don’t talk.”
X’s don’t matter anyway.
‘Mobile game… … ?’
Please, I wish someone would tell me it was a dream.
Liu Cheng-wu asked in the most calm voice. As someone who has no contact with mobile games, it seems less shocking.
“… What kind of collaboration are you thinking of? … .”
“Now think about it. When the game is released, we are also making a comeback together. And if you go to a picture that promotes each other, interest will not be doubled.”
I don’t know where these X-like thoughts come from. Does the pituitary gland produce saliva instead of hormones?
‘What are you expecting from a mobile game… … .’
Or did you receive a request from them?
No, if it’s an advertising model, there will be few people who welcome the release of an idol album that is deeply intertwined like this.
‘Because I’m eaten up by that idol image.’
If it were to be released in two months, it would have already been almost completed, but did you include content promoting an unfamiliar idol? It’s good to be messed up.
‘If this was pushed from the other side, it means that they are really trying to take the testa fans’ money and fold it… … .’
From the Testa brand image, the future to be destroyed was good in the eyes.
‘Mass-produced X manga game memes will be attached.’
No, how are you asking me to put the contents promoting the game in the album in the first place?
Also mobile games.
I don’t know if Lee was baited or pushed. Either way it was like X. It seems like that bastard Ranijina is doing something like this to make fun of it.
“I set up a meeting with them on Friday afternoon, so I just prepared my mind.”
“… Chief, have you already finished talking?”
“I have already told you everything upstairs, so I have it all sorted out. Our testers just have to work hard.”
“… All right.”
It was a confirmation kill. Even if you say that you will not do it here, it means that you will only have an emotional fight with the company, cry and eat mustard.
‘X feet really… … .’
Should I prepare my next album in advance and bring it in to confirm? Going crazy.
“… … .”
On the way out after finishing the meeting with the general manager like that. I checked to see if anyone had a good understanding of the situation.
‘Except for the two of Lee Se-jin, it’s annihilation.’
I knew it would be a big Se-jin, but Lee Se-jin was unexpected.
‘Do you have a hobby of playing games?’
Anyway, the other four are in the mood of ‘It’s a bit embarrassing, but I’ll try my best’.
It seemed like they were expecting a hardship similar to that of their debut album. … let’s just leave it for now
‘Anyway, if I go to a meeting on Friday, they’ll notice.’
At that moment, Big Sejin hit his side with his elbow.
“… Hey, what do you think?”
“It’s ruined.”
“haha.”
Big Sejin laughed slowly, and eventually an annoyed expression passed across his face.
“This one is really like that. right?… It’s not something that can be solved with effort.”
“… … that’s right.”
“It’s too much, really… … .”
Big Sejin tried to say something, but he just shut his mouth, perhaps realizing that his voice had gotten a little louder.
‘It’s a wise choice.’
I checked Sejin Lee’s reaction instead. Lee Se-jin was walking with a pale face looking at the floor.
“… … .”
Is that because of this situation? It’s a death statue I’ve never seen before in Azusa.
Sure enough, Cha Yu-jin, who was right next to her, slapped Lee Se-jin on the back.
“brother! sick?”
“… ! no … are you okay.”
it’s fine to say
‘Let’s dig.’
I thought about it for a while and then quit. I’m not a kid, I’ll figure it out.
Right now… It is urgent to come up with a solution to this damn situation.
‘… … If you put one bonus track in it and use it as a game theme song… … .’
It won’t even work for the general manager. shit.
I ran my head all the way back to the lodging, but I couldn’t find any solution (of course).
However, at that moment, the game collaboration incident was snowballing again due to an unexpected accident.
It wasn’t just Testa who was divided over this.
* * *
The beginning of this work was when T1 Stars Ent finally registered in ‘Job Universe’ and was able to write corporate reviews.
Burnout came while preparing for the debut album, and several staff members who left the company wrote scathing reviews.
————=
[Advantages: Singers work hard, the food is delicious.]
[Disadvantages: Structure without structure, top-notch without experience in entertainment A foolish debacle, a war-life balance that has disappeared due to an unreasonable schedule.]
[Overall review: I hope only a job change will survive. I hope that the singer will also change jobs.]
————=
This was the most recent review. One star point.
Since the review of the incumbent of a famous entertainment company was quite interesting, this capture also went around in various communities.
– They change people here too… It’s a subsidiary of a conglomerate, so it’s rather harsh. It’s like there’s a
misunderstanding from above.
-Save
Testa
.
└There’s not even a word about fans, so why are my thoughts flowing that way
└Suddenly grabbing fans’ hair;;
└ You guys are like this, so you probably couldn’t write it down haha…
Because Testa’s debut activities were successful, on the contrary, everyone talked a lot.
And this capture has also advanced to an anonymous application for office workers.
————=
[The entertainment company seems to be really tough] : I was interested in finding a job, but it’s scary. I’m not a related job anyway, so it’s going to be hard, but what about the reviews of those who actually go there? (Captured) @Entertainment
————=
-Honestly, it’s not something I would do with this salary (MS Enter)
-Everything people do is the same hehe (LeTi Enter)
-The starting salary is only enough to keep you from starving to death, but the work is worthwhile. But as if this was Bubabu (Treasure Enter),
the lamentations continued. However, right before this article disappeared from the front page, the person in question suddenly appeared.
– ㅋ ㅋ ㅋ It’s our company. Never come, stay… (T1 Stars Enter)
└ Huh, you made the mound
└ Is it very difficult?
└Yes (T1 Stars Enter)
└ㅜㅠㅠㅠ Aigoo
└ㅋㅋㅋHe told me everything
Short and bold answers contained many things.
People were stuck and asked questions, and in the end, the staff got angry with the gradation and left a lot of things.
-First of all, there are a lot of really weird people in the upper ranks. I almost ruined my debut album. What kind of weird concept did you come up with…
-I’m going to bring something weird this time, but I think I’ll do it after I’ve already confirmed… To be honest, I feel sorry for the singer in the company
– It’s nice to see her, but it’s a bit sad to see her working so hard to convince the higher ups during her debut… First off, I’m so sorry. Going here hahahaha
-Everyone has similar thoughts, so at least I don’t think anyone will be found out… I’m going to stop here because I’m pissed off. Don’t ever change jobs at our company~ (T1 Stars Enter)
This comment was deleted after it was posted on a hot post shortly after, but this time, the capture remained and circulated.
Of course, the fans who were waiting for the next album with excitement suddenly felt like they were covered in cold water.
-what is this sound?
– Really?
└Jinim There is a place where you need to authenticate with your company email.
└Ah… Fans who felt a sudden
fight rushed to watch the second episode of the reality show.
And I started to get a strange feeling from the second episode and the behind-the-scenes videos that looked like a warm production journal filled with passion.
-Are you trying to persuade by bringing something strange from above?
-The guy who brought it looks like that head of the headquarters. The man sitting in the middle. I’m announcing it while watching that person.
-Looking at it, I left the Magical Boy title to the kids and worked on high-fives at the company. But there was Rabin in the high five arrangement.
└ I think it was right that I persuaded the high-five
└ So, you reworked both songs from that point on? Less than a month left?
└ㅋㅋㅋㅋ Within a month, you said you did two songs, including a conform, music video, and choreography? Are you insane? Did you have fun with the kids? └ I was mad when I thought it was only Magical Boys
, but
it was twice as much haha hahahaha
-The writer said that he came with a strange concept this time too, but he said it was already confirmed.
-Oh no way
-Ha… .
-Hey, please give me plenty of time and let the kids do it.
Frightened fans contacted the company by phone and e-mail. The question was, ‘There is a story on the Internet that the concept of Testa’s 2nd album, which is being prepared recently, has already been decided. Is it true?’
At first, a consistent answer came back, as if a macro had been run, but soon the content and format became slightly more polite due to the pouring volume.
————=
[This is T1 Stars Entertainment.
First of all, I would like to apologize for not being able to answer your inquiry arbitrarily because it is a confidential matter within the company.
However, we know that we are preparing a lot for Testa’s new album and respect the opinions of the artists… … .]
————=
Of course, it was absolutely not reassuring. This is because if the album concept was undecided or Testa took charge of it himself, that part would have already been answered.
-I think the comment capture was right
-Oh what should I do
-I’d rather give Testa the company, that would be better.
Fans eventually started acting a little more extreme.
-It’s General Manager Kwak Shin-kyun who appeared on the reality show, right
?
