More than half of the large-scale women’s group growth program "Youth with You 2" was broadcast, and 109 girls bloomed themselves in this spring.

After many standardized selection programs, at first, we also had doubts about the slogan "No definition of girls, no definition of women’s groups" in "Young You 2"-does this mean that it is less accurate?

However, with the broadcast of the program, the "small transparency" that fell on other stages can glow with new vitality here, and there are also shortcomings exposed by the highly anticipated "gold medal players" in the first phase; Seeing that people with good stage charm lack the favor of the outside world, and those with true personality gain a large number of fans …

In fact, people’s state is unchangeable, the trend of public opinion is unpredictable, and the demand for practitioners in the entertainment industry is constantly being refurbished. How to sum it up in a few words and figure out what is "essence"? What can be "determined"?

Especially the charm of youth lies in its endless possibilities. The fun of watching "Young You 2" is also to see how the girls are blazing and surprised in this period of youth that can be observed by us.

In this group of "young girls", the entertainment studio has taken four samples. They are girls with completely different experiences and different personalities, and they are also girls who have either broken public prejudice or written "scripts" for them outside.

You can’t really know someone after just a few minutes of conversation. But through this round of direct communication, we can restore the youthful appearance that they want to present to the outside world.

The first to appear is Esther Yu.

Esther Yu:

I am red, big red!

The wind, the fire and the fire are vigorous.

I first met Esther Yu in the early stage recording of Youth with You 2.

When it was her turn to appear, it was already late at night, and drowsiness pervaded the whole recording place.

At that time, the charming and lovable Cai Minmin (Esther Yu’s role in "Happiness at the Next Stop") had not been shown on the screen, and I didn’t know that at the orientation meeting of "Young You 2" on the first day, she had a confession from a distance with LISA through her mentor Jony J. However, in the interview with the tutor the night before, Ella and JONY J both mentioned that among the freshmen who met for the first time, they were particularly impressed by a girl who wanted to change seats with Jony J.

Back to Esther Yu’s first stage. To tell the truth, after watching her whole performance from the introduction to the rating, the atmosphere at the scene was sober. The complex expressions of several staff members around me reveal the same subtext: how can there be a girl like her?

If you have watched the program and are impressed by the video that Esther Yu was added with the "fast forward" effect in the later stage because of her many words, what I can reveal again is that at the scene, her expression is actually more; What she said made people sweat for her.

At that time, many people predicted that she would be a topic, but few people predicted that she became the most popular one in the current program.

Before commenting on her more, let’s take a look at what kind of girl Esther Yu is in her own mind.

admire a star

At first, I really wanted to come to the show because I saw LISA coming (as a tutor).

I didn’t have a special concept about the women’s group before, and I really fell in love with the women’s group until I learned about BLACKPINK(LISA’s group).

There was a time when I was filming costume dramas, and I was so tired every day in the mountains. When I was at rest, I always watched teacher LISA’s videos, which was very high-end and very happy.

After I decided to come to the show, because I was still filming in Hengdian at that time, I invited my teacher to come to Hengdian to teach me lessons and learn the performances of the first stage ("Love You"). I have practiced in the mountains and forests and "prisons" and studied seriously for more than a month.

But looking back now, I think I’m so brave. How dare I sing Solo? Really! Singing is one thing, dancing is one thing, and it’s not so simple when you put it together … Can you say this? But I always thought this kind of (stage) was all singing, you know? Later, the staff told me all about it. Oh, my God! Later, I went to the training room to practice singing and dancing for three days, and I got the effect that everyone saw. But from the results, I think I should be quite talented, right?　

Esther Yu’s Early Stage Performance of "Young You 2"

disposition

When recording the first stage, have you ever thought about restraining your personality? No! I never care what others think of me.

First of all, I think, although there are many girls in this program, there will be many things in places with many girls, but I am not worried about this. I used to work with a bunch of people. People who don’t know me at first will generally misinterpret me, but as long as they get in touch with me, they will find that I am a normal and good person. If there was something wrong with my personality, I wouldn’t be safe now.

Then, from the point of recording the program itself, I think that since we want to record it, we have to devote ourselves to it, and there is a recording state. Off the stage, I just watch everyone’s performance wholeheartedly. If they are good, I will be very happy; They are very excited, and I will be very excited. When I take the stage myself, since the teacher asked me some questions, I want to answer them correctly. I am very happy when they praise me; If they say that I am not good, I will be very sad.　

I have friends who have analyzed it. Maybe I am different from others. I am an actor and my reaction will be "too much". Because I am good at grasping every expression of the other person, I want to respond to every word of others.

But it’s not just about being an actor. I’ve been like this since I was a child, and I have a lot of expressions. My mother said that when I get old, I will definitely have a lot of wrinkles!

Esther Yu in the "Audience" of "Young You 2"

Hey? Why do you all think I will be a "little princess"? I am so not a "little princess"!

At home, although my family loves me very much and supports my decision on the general direction, my father is super strict, not doting at all. I was often beaten when I was a child.　

For example, one Christmas, I bought spray paint for spraying windows, and it was sprayed into the fish tank, and then I was beaten; There are shopping and I really want to buy a flute. My father didn’t buy it for me at first, but later he bought it back and it became a tool to hit me. When I was eating, I once inadvertently said, "That thing grandpa ate yesterday was (very good), and this thing we ate was so cheap." My dad hit me again and made me kneel and said, "Why are you so wasteful? Say such a thing? "

At school, I am not a "little princess" either. The classmates around me like me very much. I really haven’t been pushed out because of my personality. What people say about me most is that I am funny, cute, or awkward.

Later, at work, I was also modest and polite. I was the most obedient when I went to the crew-although it seemed a little difficult.

When Esther Yu was a child, the picture came from Weibo @ Esther Yu Studio.

For the first time, it was controversial because of personality? It must be Grade One (Grade One is a variety show that Esther Yu participated in in in 2016)! At that time, when filming "Grade One", the staff told me that you are so cute. When the program is broadcast, no one will hate you and everyone will love you very much! And I said, "Really? Thank you! "

Ten minutes after the first day of the program, I was scolded for hot search.

My mom couldn’t do it then. In the second phase, she was taken to the hospital. People of their age seldom surf the Internet. The first time she saw her daughter being said like that, and I was not like that, she was very sad.

But those remarks had a good impact on myself. So far, no external sound can really hurt me.

Because, I am such a character. People don’t like me, and I can’t help it, and this character can’t be changed. But if you like me later, it’s still your business, and everything is your business.

Look at me like this, you will know that I have always been a person who loves acting. I’m precocious. I started watching idol dramas, Love in the Aegean Sea and Princess Huaiyu when I was 12 years old. When I was older, I watched the stars herding sheep and the prince turning into a frog … I occasionally practiced crying in front of the mirror. I just wanted to say how those actors cried.

I’m also thinking, is my acting now influenced by the idol drama I watched at that time? My role seems to be a little similar to Princess Huaiyu and Princess Pearl, which may be subtle.

When I was a child, I was also quite a literary backbone. I really liked to arrange programs since I was a child. I used to learn children’s dance, otherwise, how can I keep up with the dance here (Qing You)? At least my limbs are coordinated, and there is still a little bit of that kind of cell.

But I will always remember that I never succeeded in running for president of literature and art. Maybe I am usually a crazy image in the impression of my classmates, and people don’t believe that I have that strength, so they all choose others.

That day, I was lying in bed thinking: Hum, look, I have participated in the singing and dancing program now, and you should all regret that you didn’t ask me to be the president at that time!

Of course, I have had a low tide, because it is very difficult to put on a play. In the past, I often put information, and people told me to go back and wait for the notice, and then there was no news.

I’ve been through too much running for group interviews. Once I took a taxi for more than two hours in the middle of the night to go to a hotel-not just a hotel, but a hotel to audition. It’s scary to think about it now, but I didn’t know why at that time, so I was very courageous. I’ve tried all the roles, playing the kind of person who was kidnapped in the room and then took away the garbage bag.　

"Grade One" has gained popularity, from "amateur" to immediately receiving several plays starring. But it hasn’t been broadcast since the filming. I haven’t filmed for more than eight months twice.

Maybe God thought it was too easy for you to get something before, but now you need to adjust your mentality at home and not be too drifting. People have to go through this before they succeed.　

When I’m not working, I take photos, post social platforms and shoot Vlog every day. I never wanted to give up. I have made so many things, and I can’t give up easily. Besides, weren’t my works broadcast at that time? Maybe there will be another scene after it is broadcast.　

You see, I am not angry now?

the first place

Before I came to the show, I didn’t know what the C position of a women’s group should be like. But I have a concept now. First of all, to look good, you have to support the whole regiment; Then, the strength of singing and dancing should be particularly top-notch, and the appeal is very important, so that the audience can know what the meaning of this song is; Secondly, your mentality is also very strong, no matter what happens, you have to rush to the first place to carry it for everyone; Also, you have to take care of the members of the whole group, not just yourself, but you have to take everyone with you.

I don’t have any formal experience, and I ranked first in the previous rankings. Have you ever thought about the reasons?

First of all, I certainly didn’t expect this. I didn’t expect so many people to support me when I came. But since I won the first prize, I believe that I must have some qualities that young producers especially like.

Just like people asked me before, do you think you can sit in this position? I said that even if I am not the first today, I can find a reason to match this position in my heart at any position. For example, if I am the last one now, I will consider that everyone is really too strong and I want to go up; And when I’m in the front, I wonder if I’m okay like this. Am I suitable for the stage? Then I will use the higher standards of the top few to demand myself.

The reason why I got the first match for myself … Maybe people think I’m better in all aspects? Like I said, I can sing and dance, and I am kind to others. I am a good person, so the "youth producer" also likes me-because only if I like you will you help her!

If I am allowed to paint my youth, I think it should be a colorful picture. I am a cartoon villain and do a lot of things in it, because my life experience is so rich!

If you can only use one color to represent yourself, it must be red, big red! Because I am full of power and vigor!　

Decoding Esther Yu:

Her "unnatural" is her nature.

I thought about two questions before: 1. Is Esther Yu "qualified" as a trainee of women’s group programs? 2. Why can she rank high for a long time?

Before this season’s "Young You", I was exposed to 7-year talent show. Esther Yu’s debut made me a little uncomfortable.

In the past for a long time, stage ability must be the main assessment item. Just look at Esther Yu’s performance on the stage, as Ella put it on the initial stage: the singing atmosphere is obviously insufficient. In addition, the dance movements are also in the "complete" level. The reason why the discussion can be ignited on the first stage is mainly based on its personality.

According to the standards of past programs or selected trainees, Esther Yu is not qualified. But as a participant in the current women’s group program, she is rare.

Esther Yu in "Young You 2"

I have to admit that great changes have taken place in the industry, programs and public demand. The draft is no longer just a stage competition, but a reality show has become a very important part of the program. The public’s demand for more "greedy" public figures has also promoted the program to present more characters and relationships for the public to entertain and discuss. In addition, all kinds of reality shows and variety shows are prevalent in the whole industry, which also subtly requires us to help and deliver new people who are more artistic-when they are out of the competition and active in the industry, Ta will not be a boring existence.

Looking back at Esther Yu in this environment-fresh personality ensures her attention and topic. Although the ability of singing and dancing needs to be improved at present, it is enough to present a correct attitude and further polish its strength.

In the traditional environment, those who are too picky are vulnerable to attack. However, Esther Yu won an overwhelming favor with his personality, not that "personality" itself became more popular in the entertainment circle, but that Esther Yu won was true.

At the premiere of the program, some netizens who were shocked by her "alternative" reaction also went to archaeology on a large scale, but later everyone found out that her "unnatural" was her nature.

Esther Yu’s popular emoticons in "Young You 2"

Many actors, staff and acquaintances who have worked together will comment on Esther Yu, saying that she has exactly the same personality in front of the stage.

Xiaotang Zhao, who has a good relationship with Esther Yu in the program, also revealed to us that because of her personality, honest and frank, she couldn’t stand "playing too much". Before coming to the program, her colleagues in the company who knew that Esther Yu also participated in the competition specially mentioned her not to have a head-on conflict with Esther Yu. But after contacting the real person, Xiaotang Zhao soon fell in love with this girl: "She just showed her original personality generously, and I think it’s great!"

Of course, Esther Yu will also have problems and shortcomings. But the reason why she was accepted by many people or helped her is that she saw the courage and freedom of being herself.

The word "be yourself" is vulgar, but it is also difficult-only when you find yourself first and are willing to accept yourself can you really be yourself.

In Esther Yu’s youth, it is better to be an imperfect self than to be a perfect "other".
