this program was produced by iQiyi Entertainment
what do you think the dance instructor will be like?
I think that they will be very open
and very free
amiable, and..
what if they're not kind what do we do then
it'll be kind of scary to be honest
very american, i think
and I think they will be very experienced
they'll definitely have high standards for basic skills
because the people here are all
(very high level)
someone who thinks a lot, I think
their dancing style would be very free
as someone who hasn't danced for a long time
i am very lucky to be able to come to LA
and learn some advanced things about dancing
i'm really looking forward to it
i believe that
the cameras will record
some of our training processes for you guys to see
choreography instructor: Christopher Scott

his dance crew LXD won an award in the 82th Oscars
assistant dance instructor: Patrick Cook

April 17, 9 o'clock LA Dance Practice Room
rest for 5 minutes
get some water
we start looking at the mack daddy video
(lyrics) the whole world all start to (become) hot
(counting beats) 2,2,3,4,5,6
seven eight
you guys go
you guys go
5,6,7,8
the most difficult thing with working with the group
is we're putting together
their very first show with very limited time
so everything is like fast fast fast
and we're like everybody go here go here switch switch
if we look at our own positions in the formation it'll be quicker
ok so
changing this formation isn't because the instructor's isn't correct
it's because the instructor's video has the parts named differently than ours
right now he's not focusing on this song
it's on how you will all work together from now on
oh
because you don't have that much time
and for this song we hope that the instructors can work with zhengting and justin
because they know everything
and then we'll go back in and fine tune the placement
(basically translating what he just said to ninepercent
right now it's just learning the dance, not formations
what they're doing really well is
they're allowing each other to help each other
there's no egos,
everybody's just letting the other people from the other numbers tell them where they go and all that
so really really
it's really coming together
is it the same on both sides?
yes yes yes its the same
(t/n: I love zhengting)
you and xiao gui are symmetrical
right
so us standing on this side is correct, right?
wait, we're switched
they're not
still on that side, right?
right
do you know the formations?
yeah I do
let's talk it out
after we do this there are three counts
on four xiao gui comes here
then what about me
i also come inside
you guys are inside doing this
after you finish doing this
and then when we do this xiao gui comes out from here
and then do we go into a triangle
right, come out from here
and at this time i come here
and the formation becomes a v shape?
it's not a V, you're in front
and then you're in the front
so it's a diamond
first let's get the moves down, any version will do
right now the details are not important
they're really not important
we get the moves and the formations down first
this is the most important thing right now ok
so i'll teach this
5,6,7 - fcc's rap part
(fcc's rap part)
(fcc's rap part)
right?
(fcc's rap part)
having to wait for someone to translate
or wait for
or even miming - we're just kind of doing a lot of arm movements
and trying to understand like "ah, not this, this"
or whatever the movement is
trying to find some common ground
where is the, uhhh
ah, dadadadadadada
yeah
each member has something really special about them
and they're all very different
I would say the first member
to really stand out to me was August (aka Xukun)
because they put us together
he was the leader from the beginning
and he really helped take charge
and from then we've been
really bonded
and everyday we kind of connect
and we talk about what we're gonna do for the day
and then
no
no no it's like this
right?
you come teach it you teach it
5,6,7,8
tap with your heel
tap with your toe
oh is it your toe?
ok, choose only one of you to teach
(toes) (how did you remember it as?)
which one of you is going to teach, decide on a person
ok 3,2,1 one person, who will it be
let zhengting
you teach, we'll learn only from you
let's start
5,6,7
i do it with my heels
5,6,7, go
so when august introduced himself to me
he said
hey i'm august, im the leader
and I was just like wow (t/n: same)
so he was really confident
and i was just like alright, here we go man
take it away
that was exciting
it was exciting to see him kind of step into that role
and then kinda just take charge
he just really seems like a go-getter like
he's just going and going and going
which is really good
I think everyone should just agree first to avoid any possible differences
yeah, that would be so great
okokok like that then
we're going to have a meeting first
let's first talk about dream
ziyi and I have practiced it before
we two can (teach/help/whatever)
and who else
dream was us four
five, us four plus fcc is five
after five it's we're missing two more
who of you wants to do dream with us?
I've already memorized part F
ok, so he's added
we need one more
we added nongnong and we need one more person
I have a question it's
he needs to lose weight
it would be easier like this
but since we're a team isn't it not very good to split up
no, we're not splitting up
we're only splitting up four songs
the thing is for our show,
it's easier because we've performed the songs before
it's dream, and-
then later our songs are all going to be 9 members right
of course, all of our songs will have 9 members
you three don't want to come to dream?
he does
hurry one of you
one of you needs to join
actually i really like this part
you only like that one move?
add him in to dream
i think rock paper scissors is the most fair method
let's do rock paper scissors
you three, do rock paper scissors
god bless me
rock, paper, scissors
(ziyi laughing)
(singing xingjie's center part)
the one who didn't want to do it the most
xiao gui you need to carry on xingjie's legacy
xiao gui actually you can sing in dream you know
ok first let's distribute parts for dream
the dream team is out
two of them aren't in it
two people out of dream
I can add those two
(cxk) another song
seven people in this song
they don't want to
I can add them into this song
really?
yeah, it's not that hard
(they can stand to the side and follow)
mack daddy and it's ok
mack daddy and it's ok
all the people
four songs are only seven people
ok
just four
it's not hard for me to add two people
the thing is, (we) need to change outfits
there needs to be some time in between
i think this is ok too
ok lets get the seven people
I give them their parts - can you do that?
(translating back to chinese)
and then from there, we can adjust
I keep spinning incorrectly here
we're in the middle so why do we need to go diagonal
and then have to go around here
because it looks good that way
nongnong is hilAriOUs (t/n: same dude same)
he is so fuNnY (t/n: our newest fanboy)
and he's just sooOOo crazy
i love it
he's like the most fun in the room
he the light, just lights it up
(t/n: alsdkjflaj nongnong plz)
don't go there and go ei ei
you need to do an actual ei ei
eiEIeiEieI
(t/n: why do I stan honestly)
when I first met the group I was most impressed with Evan (aka yanjun)
the way he danced the way he remembered all the choreography and
just how professional he was
he has just been so solid the whole process and
yeah he really impressed me
when we go "hoo" you can come out
for example mack daddy
hoo
you can also do this
daladalada
Lil Ghost (aka xiao gui) is siCK
he surprises me all the time
he'll just be a little bit like chill and laid back and then
the music plays and he just comes alive and
when he starts dancing like really full out
it's just like wow this guy
this guy can move
i love that
I love that about him
give a close up of my shoe
his new shoes
his new shoes
did someone step on them
1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8
(t/n: they sound so good live)
I love how Austin (zzt) and Chin (yzj)
just have great voices
they have such strong voices and they really take charge
when it's their time to sing
and they just really step up
like here I am
I just love that
they have some really great performance
really good performance quality
i'm really falling in love with them because they have a lot of talent
I've been working in this industry for a long time
and I don't get groups that can dance like they can
and sing like they can
and learn as fast as they can
so they're really biggest challange
is gonna be dealing with the pressure
that's always the unknown when youre a new group
it's like can you handle the pressure
and I think there's a lot of pressure on them now
but they're doing really a good job
so I think they have a huge career ahead of them
a dance I haven't done before, need to learn new moves
yeah, so it's a bit hard
because I've always been slow to learn dances
right after I finish I won't be sore
but once I wake up the next morning I collapse
I can't extend my arms out straight
yeah
then what about when you were dancing yesterday
I just had to endure it
I really had endured it
so if you extend your arms it'll hurt a lot?
it's super painful
but when you finish dancing
or when youre half way through your body is warmed up
the pain will be decreased by half
but after you finish and your body becomes cool
the muscles lump together
and then it hurts a lot again
can't die, can't die
guys stop. which way- everybody the same?
everybody the same on that one
yeah?
nongnong, come back
nongnong, everybody
maybe you can
chris walk him through every part
cxk: let me see it once
go slow
go slow from the top, here we go
he's going to demonstrate
you know my advice to the group
I think they have to take that resposibility very seriously
cuz its important, and
they're gonna change entertainment, you know
like they could change entertainment
and I think thats what i always want the celebrities I work with
to understand
cuz that's
now, you have an audience
and we need to
take care of them
very crazy, it's gonna be fine
let's take a lunch
and then we'll come back
we'll move on
we'll be back at two o'clock
and we're gonna jump right in
April 23, 4 pm Santa Monica Beach
my shoes got dirty
we can film like this
let's take a tourist picture
tourist picture
Hello, I am B-O-O-G-I-E Wang Ziyi
right now I am at the seaside in America

it's because we've been training a lot recently
and
we didn't have time to relax
breath in some fresh air
so we're out and about today
you, come here!
don't run away
(t/n: xiao gui why are you like this

I'm gonna write something too
hurry, film it
I wrote the name of my fandom

because I finally reached 2 mil followers on weibo
and i'm thankful for everyone who supports me
I feel very blessed with everyone accompanying me
so I want to remember it
yeah
ok, let's go
change the scenery, let's go
we just like to come here on a day with bad weather, you know?
(fan: happy virus)
so are you guys filming for a show right now?
no, we're filming a small documentary
are you on instagram?
no, i don't have instagram
I chatted with an Italian person awkwardly just now
very awkward, you know, cuz I don't understand
actually I wanted to tell her, but I was embarrassed
wow this is so cool
this is really cool
I found that the people here all have good attitudes
freedom
freedom
(1,2,3)
(1,2,3)
wow, facing the sea
how do you feel
a feeling of
nature and relief
what kind of feel
facing the sea
even though the wind is a bit cool
but I still
feel really good
I feel like we'll come down with a cold tonight
or something, yeah
but don't you feel this??
it's like when we come to places like this
you're just completely happy
you feel like you've been cleansed
your inner self has been cleansed, feels really nice
(i got) frozen
fearless you know? what's being fearless. (t/n: the back of his shirt says fearless)
being fearless is not being afraid of anything
I'm not scared of anything
you know?
xiao gui hasn't eaten
he'll become normal once he eats
we should walk over there with swag
this feeling is really great
it makes me feel sinful
I am a kid who likes training
training makes me happy
(t/n: xiao gui's brainwashing operation: start)
dancing makes me happy, training makes me happy
doing formations makes me happy
i don't want to play
I think playing around is too time-wasting
oh, bumper cars!
do you want to play?
yes
I also want to play
I want to play on the bumper cars
I don't care, I have to play on bumper cars today
i have to!
actually xiao gui wanted to do the rollercoaster together
but i thought it was a bit cold so i said no
yeah
that pirate ship, i feel like it kills you
you wanna do this one? ok
I won't ride on this one
noo do it with me
i don't wanna
ride it with me!
if you ride it with me i'll can take a request from you
ok, my request is that you don't make me ride it with you
dont be like this
let's do another one
this one, it's not bad at all
you're really not gonna go on it?
you'll regret it
let's go play on the bumper cars, didn't we say that
bumper cars and this
there's nothing to be afraid of, really
i'm not scared
ok, let's go
(fans: so handsome)
ah, I don't want to go onto this
hurry up and go
if I ride this then let's not ride that

if you sit here it's not fun
i'm just gonna sit here
yayaya this is aka happy virus

i'm riding on this for you guys ok
we didn't plan on riding on this originally
I feel like i'm kind of
kind of dizzy
it hurts a bit you know
I held on a bit too tightly onto the railings
let's go onto the ferris wheel first
no rollercoaster first
take pictures
rollercoaster first
rollercoaster, do you hear me?
no no no no
I don't want to ride the rollercoaster
rollercoaster!
we already rode on one
you're too scary, really
i'm going to let him scan this
i'm going to challenge myself!
LA whats up
bye-bye
it wasn't that exciting
but
but i saw pretty views of the scenery
even tho my nose is getting runny
that's not important though, being happy is
are you scared?
i'm afraid of heights, so
really?
this, is there anything dangerous about this?
I feel like it's not dangerous at all
it's super cold right now
woah, it's so cold
it's so cold
even if you're cold, you can't shiver, you know?
of course you can be cold
but you can't say it, and you can't shiver
you right
its speeding up x3
(1,2,3, ok)
wang ziyi
ok, finish
the view is pretty good on this side
finish
very cold, but it's very exciting
I wanna get off
ok, it ended
i think we'll go around again
is it gonna keep going for like 30 more minutes?
it's going to keep going
maybe 5 more rounds
xiao gui has lost all hope
because
i'm going to be frozen into jerky, bro
it's so cold, so cold, let me get off
why are they like this
this feels very bad
why are they doing this to us
what did we do wrong
i want to get off
okok we have landed
no no no
oh my god
i'm going to be frozen to death
why are we back again
xiao gui's mental state has collapsed again
someone save me
tomorrow's the last day
this is crazy
that's amazing
seven numbers in five days
six of the numbers
are directly from the show
i'm doing original choreography
for I will always remember
it's going to be all original, brand new
with mic stands
and that's the one number they don't know yet
and they're gonna learn tomorrow
so when we first heard the song, i will always remember
we were thinking
ok cool there's mic stands
very mature routine
we really want the guys to just be
like, smoldering
just like strong men and just kind of really passionate
very kind of like for the audience
like slow
it's like a slower number for the show
kinda gives the audience a break but
really brings them in
brings them into the guys
and they just really perform
go on weibo and search ninepercent flower road journey to discover more behind the scenes
(thanking sponsors)
