Peninsula: I, a chaebol! I will never follow hidden rules.

Chapter 157: One Participating Spot [Subscribe]

At five o'clock in the afternoon, after finishing her schedule, Kwon Eun-bi returned to the company with her teammates.

They said the president was going to hold a meeting with them, but the president hadn't arrived yet and there was no leader in the meeting room, so the eight exhausted girls took a rest casually.

Some were lying on the sofa, some were slumped on the floor, and some were lying on the table. It could be said that they didn't care about their image at all.

But we can’t blame them because they are really tired!
Even though their group is a little obscure, and even the most obscure one, they still have quite a few "announcements".

It’s just that this “announcement” is not very serious. The announcements that other popular groups give are autograph sessions, song promotions, variety show recordings, movie and TV series shoots, concerts, or some large-scale commercial performances.

The notices they perform for are: wedding banquet performances, restaurant opening performances, and even street advertising-style performances.

They were just as tired, but they didn't earn much money. But earning money was better than not earning anything at all, and to earn more, the company would even give them almost any job.

How miserable!
In the past, Quan Enfei felt that this was really a hopeless future, but now it is different. Now that she has a big support, the daily garbage notices are no longer torture for her, but a test.

It not only honed her abilities, but also her psychological qualities, which will be of great benefit to her future participation in the talent show of Xingji Entertainment.

So for her, being a little tired is nothing, after all, the future is bright.

But for her seven teammates, every day at the company was torture. They had accepted their fate, or perhaps seen the entertainment industry clearly: becoming famous was too difficult, and they simply weren't destined for it!
They are now waiting for the company to go bankrupt and the team to disband, so that they can become free again, go to school when they should, and find a job when they should.

Is the president going to announce the disbandment of their group at the meeting today? They are looking forward to it.

A few minutes later, a man in his forties, dressed in a suit, walked into the conference room with a girl in formal attire. These two were the company's president, Han Dabao, and his assistant.

When the president arrived, the eight girls quickly stood up and lined up, then bowed politely and said, "Hello, President!"

"Hello." Han Dabao smiled warmly and waved his hand, saying, "Are you tired from running around today? Stop standing and sit down."

"Thank you, President!"

After expressing their gratitude, the eight girls sat down on the chairs beside the conference table, with their heads held high and their chests held high, sitting very properly.

Looking at these eight well-behaved girls, Han Dabao's slightly overweight face showed a guilty expression. He sighed and said, "Alas, you don't have to thank me. In fact, it's me and the company who are sorry for you. We wasted several years of your youth in vain."

Hearing this, the eight girls' faces darkened. Except for Quan Enfei, who was acting a bit, the remaining seven girls felt truly distressed.

They are all seventeen or eighteen years old now. In their opinion, they have really wasted their best youth in this company.

I didn’t succeed in my career and my studies were delayed. It really hurts to think about it!

Seeing the girls' eyes reddened and almost crying, Han Dabao sighed and continued, "Alas! To be honest, if possible, I really want to make you famous. But you all know the company's current situation. Even if I could make you famous, the company no longer has the financial resources to do so."

Hearing this, the little girl couldn't help but sob in grievance. Quan Enfei asked cautiously: "President, are we going to disband?"

"If nothing unexpected happens, the company will declare bankruptcy this Friday, and you will naturally be dissolved. But..." But what? They're going to be dissolved, so what else could there be?
Facing the girls' curious eyes, Han Dabao smiled bitterly and said, "Even though the company is finished, it doesn't mean you have to quit.

Recently I received news that Star Entertainment and JTBC TV station are going to organize a women's talent show. 48 contestants will be selected from across the country to compete on TV. The nine winners will directly form a group and debut.

However, you all know some of the inside stories of the entertainment industry. The so-called auditions are just that, and some of these 48 spots are definitely pre-selected. Now that the company has secured one spot, what are your thoughts?"

Of course there is!

You know, this group has debuted for a year, but has never been on TV. But now, if they get this spot, they can be on TV!

No matter what, they have been trainees for several years and have debuted for a year. Their singing, dancing and performing abilities are definitely much better than those of amateurs!

As long as I can go to the TV station to participate in the competition, maybe I can make my debut again.

Even if I can't debut in the end, as long as I can appear on TV, I might become famous. If I get noticed by a big company, I can even become a trainee again.

Regardless, this is an opportunity!
But there are eight of them, but only one spot available. This...

We were teammates before, but now we are rivals.

The eight little girls looked at each other, and except for Concubine Quan, the others had complicated expressions.

Since Kwon Eun-bi already had a debut spot, she naturally wouldn't compete with her teammates for a spot on the TV show. However, she was curious about how the company secured this spot. What did it pay for? What would it gain? And what did it want them to do?
"The company doesn't have the power to choose which of you will participate. However, there will be a business dinner at the Lotte Hotel in Myeongdong the night after tomorrow. Executives from JTBC and Star Entertainment will be in attendance. You will also be performing as guest performers at the dinner."

So, all you need to do is dress up nicely and perform well. Whoever is selected will get the spot."

The night after tomorrow? Oppa should be back, right? Will he attend the dinner?

"Dinner party? What dinner party? Why haven't I heard about it?"

Li Zhixuan, who had just received a call from Concubine Quan, was still a little confused, but he soon realized that this was probably a setup, a trap!

"Let me ask. Maybe this dinner isn't that important, so they didn't tell me. Don't worry, I'll go with you. It'll be fine. Yeah, I love you too. Bye."

After the call ended, Li Zhixuan put the phone aside and lay back in the bathtub.

Park Hyomin and Hwang Yeji leaned on the bathtub, one on each side, staring at him, neither saying a word.

"what?"

The two girls looked at each other, then imitated his tone and said in unison: "Yeah~ I love you too~ Bye~"
