Peninsula: My mentor Kim Tae-yeon

"It's alright..." Liz said, not very confidently.

Her singing skills are something worth mentioning.

Ningning from aespa has good singing skills, but she is still criticized. People say her level is not that great.

Moreover, there's the excellent example set by NMIXX's Lily.

"Don't worry." Su Xia tapped the table lightly, her gaze sharp, her face radiating confidence as she looked at Liz.

"Follow my lead, and I guarantee you'll be in the top three of the fifth generation of female idols in terms of singing ability!"

"Top three?" Liz's eyes widened immediately. "Isn't that...exaggerated?"

"I learned my singing from Taeyeon," Su Xia said confidently, waving her hand. "As long as you can master the essence, I guarantee you'll be invincible in the idol world!"

"Just imagine, when people mention Liz, they'll think of her as having the best vocals among fifth-generation girl groups, and the evaluation of IVE will no longer be 'just for watching, not singing,' but 'they can sing really well!'"

"All of this is because of you, Jin Zhiyuan!"

"Do you have some misunderstanding about the skill level of those people from NMIXX?" Kim Tae-yeon's soft voice suddenly rang in my ears.

Su Xia remained expressionless, her eyes still fixed on Liz.

At this moment, poor Chestnut was attracted by the pie in Su Xia's picture.

She did accept being a little star under the twins' spotlight from the very beginning, but no one really wants to be someone else's foil forever, and Liz was no exception.

If she could, she also wanted to shine brightly, so that those who liked her could proudly say, "My idol Liz is a truly talented idol!"

She knew Su Xia was just making empty promises, but he was also genuinely teaching her real skills...

Cheer up, Jin Zhiyuan!

Liz's gaze gradually hardened.

"Su Xia oppa, I want to learn music!"

Su Xia laughed and gave Liz a thumbs up.

"I'll wait until the day you become famous throughout the world!"

"I will do it!"

Su Xia and Liz looked at each other. He saw the fire in her eyes, and she saw the expectation in his.

The agreement has now been reached.

Kim Tae-yeon glanced at Su Xia, then at Liz, wanting to take out her phone to record the scene. It would be such a shame not to capture this scene with such a strong sense of déjà vu.

……

After lunch, Su Xia, who had a habit of taking a nap, lay down in the waiting room to sleep.

Liz went to the practice room to review what Su Xia had taught her yesterday and this morning.

Kim Tae-yeon stood there watching Liz's departing figure, thinking of herself before she became Jung Joon-won's apprentice.

At that time, she was still studying under the company's vocal system and had not yet met the most important teacher on her vocal journey.

But will the teacher Liz encounter be the right one?

Kim Tae-yeon glanced at Su Xia on the sofa again and shook her head slightly.

Su Xia wouldn't be perfunctory with Liz, but his skill level still didn't meet the graduation standard set by Kim Tae-yeon.

Let her do it.

Teaching is the same whether you have one student or two students.

Hmm... no, that's not right!

Kim Tae-yeon was startled.

How the hell did this happen?

I got scammed again!

Kim Tae-yeon suddenly realized that she had ended up cleaning up Su Xia's mess again.

Hey!

The sixth floor houses the Planning and Publicity Department.

With Su Xia joining, CJ MCN, as part of CJ Entertainment, also has its influencer promotion work handled by the Corporate Communications Department.

After Su Xia's Notes released the live stream announcement for June 6.15th, the promotional images were prepared with everyone working overtime.

"It's almost 2 PM! Have Su Xiaxi's promotional photos been released yet?"

"Damn it! Stop rushing me! You're like I'm being pressured to my death! I've only had one day, and you're already asking for so much! I'm working on it!"

"Ugh! It's almost two o'clock and you still haven't finished drawing?"

"Get lost! Don't interfere with my graphic design!"

Chaos erupted in the PR department as the dozen or so people went about their duties while also taking the time to roast each other.

There's no other reason than that time was too tight.

The promotional images that were finalized yesterday are due by 2 PM today, and everyone is working on the final review without a moment's delay.

"Damn it! Damn it! Damn it! Where's the approval? Is it dead? Hurry up and approve it!"

"Stop yelling, I'm watching!"

"Three minutes left, you guys better hurry up!"

"It's here! It's here! It's received!"

The person in charge of operating Su Xia's Bilibili account received the text and photos sent to them, and hurriedly posted them on time, finally finishing before 2 o'clock.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Unlike other platforms like Yinpu, which prioritize content and simply use any image for live stream announcements, Bilibili's art team creates artwork and uses that as the basis for their promotions.

At 2 PM sharp, the scheduled promotional image was automatically distributed.

Su Xia's Bilibili account has far surpassed Yin Fu's 120 million followers, reaching 150 million.

Sometimes, sudden bursts of popularity are just that unreasonable.

Eating an egg can gain millions of fans overnight, but Su Xia's cover that transcends form and spirit is truly unique.

When you become irreplaceable in a market, that's where competitiveness comes in.

A graphic design image suddenly appeared in Su Xia's Bilibili feed.

This is a cartoon picture of two pandas. One of the pandas is standing on a ladder under a chestnut tree, reaching out to pick a chestnut with a dimple.

Another panda sits in front of the machine. To the left of the machine are rows of chestnuts, and directly opposite the panda are steaming cakes. To the right of the machine, a perfectly packaged square object has the Chinese characters for "chestnut cake" written on it.

And at the very top of the poster.

Saturday, June 6.15th

Su Xia, Liz (IVE)

19:00

"???"

"what?"

"Is Su Lu going to go all out right from the start?"

"So that's why you haven't been updating! You sneaked off to South Korea to arrest Chestnut!"

"I don't approve of it unless it's Taeyeon."

"Ken Thai Lamb: Laxative, I'm just picking my toes at home, I don't want to come."

"This graphic design...this promotional method...Wow, is this some kind of spinning top guy?"

"This can be used to make peaches?"

"Dude, we're all dance cover creators, how come you went off to collaborate with a female idol without saying a word?"

"What's this live stream about? Are they dating?"

"Shut up!"

"The notes from next door seem to be proving that the singing isn't AI."

"Huh? If Su Lu's singing isn't Ai, I'll eat the whole outhouse back home!"

"Put in an eye."

"cy".

"Can someone give a proper introduction to who Liz is? And what's the deal with the chestnut pastry?"

"Go search for it yourself. Don't bother us big shots with everything. Small shots need to learn to be self-reliant."

"I want to see people eat dry toilets."

"No traitors, here are some beautiful pictures of chestnuts."

The promotional image attracted immediate attention as soon as it was released.

Su Xia has been staying in South Korea for some time and hasn't updated her social media for several days, which has made many fans concerned about where this missing person has gone.

Now it's clear.

Off to pick chestnuts!
