Huayu: Starting from the top talent show

Chapter 1: The C position of the fault, but in South Korea
"The second ranking announcement ceremony of Produce 101 will soon announce the first place. The two trainees who will be the first place candidates, trainee Shen Juan from Lehua and trainee Kim Jong Hyun from Pledis, please stand on the light box on the stage."

South Korean queen-level solo singer BoA said with a smile on the stage.

"Brother Juan is awesome! Come on, Brother Juan!"

"Wow, he looks so handsome!"

“Jong Hyun ranked very high this time!”

“Dynasties change, regimes change.”

"Change? Hasn't Shen Juan always been in the top two?"

"Shen Juan is the type of person who doesn't need to do anything but stand on the stage and the audience will vote for him."

"Oh~ He definitely has the temperament of a natural king."

The two people, one with black hair and the other with silver hair, stood up and walked onto the stage amid the cheers, applause and discussions of the surrounding trainees.

"Pledis trainee Kim Jong-hyun."

The camera was focused on a young man with South Korea's signature mushroom-shaped haircut and a formal smile on his face.

"In the position evaluation of the song "Timid", I won the second place in the rap position with my true rap. Not only my leadership but also my strength was recognized by everyone."

"Le Hua, Shen Juan's trainee."

The scene changed, and another handsome guy with his silver hair styled into a heroic backcombed style, boldly showing off his three-dimensional facial features with a strong visual impact, walked towards the stage with a straight and slender figure and a cold and gloomy look, expressionlessly.

"With her unprecedented beauty and outstanding abilities, she caught the attention of countless audiences on her debut stage and was praised as a natural idol. She continued to shine on stage with her gorgeous performances, firmly grasping the hearts of the national producers and firmly occupying the top popularity circle on all online trend charts."

At the same time, various popular terms and online comments related to Shen Juan kept flashing on the screen.

[His appearance is simply eye-catching. It has been a long time since I have seen a boy with such a bright face. 】

[His skills are also very good. I feel that there are few trainees who are better than him in vocal and rap. ]

[A natural visual center, Shen Juan has all the talent, looks, personality and stage presence. He is at the level to debut directly. Trainees of this level must not be buried. Sisters, come and vote with me! ]

After the two trainees, who attracted the attention of the entire audience and even all of South Korea, walked through the crowd and stood in the center of the stage, the host BoA followed the cue card process and smiled at Shen Juan, who was obviously better in appearance, and asked.

"Trainee Le Hua Shen Juan, who has always been a strong contender for the first place, has once again become a first-place substitute today. How do you feel now?"

Shen Juan took the microphone handed to him by the staff, aimed at the camera and showed the flawless smile that he had practiced countless times.

"I know it was the fans' selfless support that brought me here, so now I am very grateful for their love. No matter where we are in the future, no matter how far apart we are, I believe that the little moments we have spent together during this time will bring us closely together."

“The road ahead may be long and difficult, but if you keep going you will reach your destination.”

Baoer smiled and nodded at Shen Juan, then looked at his opponent on the other side who was competing with him for the C position.

"This is the first time for Pledis trainee Kim Jong-hyun to stand on the light box, how do you feel at this moment?"

Kim Jong Hyun took the microphone from Shen Juan and said after thinking for a moment: "During the position evaluation, the shower group stood on the light box. It felt very cool to sing on it. I thought that if I have the chance next time, I would also like to stand on it and take a look. So I feel really good to be able to stand on it. In fact, I am even happier to be able to participate in the concept evaluation."

Perhaps it's because he knows that this position is not easy to come by.

He had a lot of things he wanted to say, but what came out was very messy, in stark contrast to the previous trainee who spoke, and the difference in aura was immediately apparent when facing the camera.

"Now then."

"Produce 101 second ranking announcement ceremony."

"Published first."

The atmosphere in the studio suddenly became tense.

Kim Jong-hyun, whose ranking has improved dramatically this time, tried to hide his inner nervousness with a tight smile. It was not easy to get here, so there was no reason not to want to go further.

Shen Juan slightly raised his head and looked expressionlessly at the camera in front of him that was locked on him. Considering his look today, some viewers might think he was pretentious, but he actually looked more lazy and relaxed.

Baoer couldn't help but sigh secretly at Shen Juan's relaxation, and had to admit in her heart that this Chinese trainee was far superior to their South Korean trainees in every aspect.

This is probably how different the world is.
After calming down, he picked up the microphone and continued:
"The protagonist who took the highest position is" "He received 1 votes out of a total of 59365681 votes. That's an incredible number of votes!"

"Wow! It's crazy!"

"I hope it's Brother Juan."

"Great! That's too many tickets!"

"I'm getting goosebumps."

After a long period of stirring up the audience's emotions, the host Baoer finally opened the envelope in her hand, took out the hand card from it, and announced the final result with a little emotion:
"Le Hua, Shen Juan's trainee."

The moment the number of votes appeared on the big screen, the trainees from China, Japan and South Korea in the trainee stands behind Shen Juan all applauded for him.

They are all smart people, and their facial expressions are more exaggerated than each other, just to win more favor of the camera.

Of course, this number is indeed shocking.

After all, Kim Jong-hyun, who ranked second this time, only had more than two million votes, and Shen Juan had twice as many as him!
In other words, the second and third place combined are not enough for him to beat.

The data is broken, isn’t that scary enough?
"How do you feel now?"

Baoer was very curious about what Shen Juan was thinking at this moment, as he won the first place again with a huge gap.

"To be honest, I am now" On the screen, Shen Juan, who had prepared his speech in advance, picked up the microphone and spoke eloquently.

And outside the screen.
"Brother Juan, you have been frowning and looking unhappy since you got up this morning. Are you under too much pressure? Or are you worried about something? In any case, getting first place is a good thing. I see all the comments online are praising you. There are more and more fans who like you recently." Huang Minghao looked at Shen Juan who was pacing back and forth in the dormitory with surprise.

Shen Juan stopped his aimless steps and glanced at the underage brother who was caring about him.

"How can I be happy to survive in such a fiercely competitive show, debut in a country with such a bad entertainment industry environment, and have a green card, which is the least popular among South Koreans?"

"Ah? Isn't this your dream, Brother Juan? To debut as an idol." Huang Minghao was a little confused.

"my dream?"

"Going to South Korea to be an idol at the bottom of the social ladder is my dream? Forget it. I don't want to be asked to accompany people for drinking at every turn. My Instagram posts have to be reviewed by the company for several rounds. When I am invited to a party, there is no lounge and I have to touch up my makeup in my car with the flashlight on my phone in the mirror. It makes people laugh when I tell others about it."

Huang Minghao opened his mouth wide, looking stunned: "Brother Ke Juan, what's wrong with you today? Did you get hurt by the bad comments from haters after the show aired tonight? Or do you feel bad seeing me and Brother Ting being eliminated this round?"

Shen Juan shook his head and said no more.

He really couldn't believe that everything that happened today was real, and he also couldn't believe that he had traveled through time and space to the body of a person with the same name as him, Shen Juan.

He couldn't believe that Shen Juan would give up his comfortable career in the domestic entertainment industry and sign a contract with Le Hua, a company that specializes in training idols, to come to South Korea to record a program and become an idol trainee.

Apart from pursuing his childhood dream, he really couldn't find any reason to lower his status and become a small-time punk.

If he were to choose, it would never happen.

Before traveling through time, Shen Juan was born into a well-off family. Although he had not developed any special skills since childhood, he had a pretty good diploma and academic qualifications, and managed to find a decent job with a decent salary after graduation.

It's not like we have a bright future, but at least the current situation is quite satisfactory.
Then he woke up and traveled through time.

So the new version of Shen Juan canceled today's group training on the pretext of being ill, spent the entire morning confirming the fact that he had traveled through time, and then spent another afternoon digesting this magical event that seemed to have become a foregone conclusion.

It was not until now, when Shen Juan complained to Huang Minghao about "his" dream and caused the other party's surprise, that he finally calmed down and decided to accept it all.

After a while, Shen Juan said, "I'm going out for a while."

"Where are you going?" Huang Minghao climbed up from the bed.

"I'm hungry, let's go downstairs and buy something."

　Wanna One, the limited-time boy group launched by PD101 for one and a half years, almost created all the four generations of boy groups in South Korea. All kinds of sales and popularity data were broken, but there was no contestant as popular as Kun Kun. After the limited-time group disbanded, they all became obscure.

　　Lehua also sent several trainees to participate in the competition, including Kun Kun’s teammates Zhu Zhengting and Huang Minghao from Idol Producer Nine Percent.
