Well, besides, this chapter has an intention as pure as a lily...... I've thought about it for a long time......
===============
On January 25, when Ahn Joon-hyuk, who had finished a day's choreography, was about to go out to dinner with Hyuk-jae, Kwon Bo-geun brought two middle-aged people to the dance studio.
"Junhyuk, come, let me introduce you, these two are the directors of your two title song MVs, Mr. Seo Hyun-seung, and Mr. Cha Eun-taek. ”
Ahn Jun Hyuk hurriedly took Hyuk Jae and bowed: "Hello two teachers! ”
The two directors nodded slightly in return and said with a smile: "Please also take care of Jun Hyuk!"
The attitude was very peaceful, the three of them chatted a little, and seeing that the time was not early, Kwon Bo-geun said: "Jun-hyuk, I was about to invite the two teachers to go out to dinner, you can come over too, and by the way, explain your idea to the two teachers." As he spoke, he turned his head to the two directors and said: "This kid has always said that he wants to be a director, and he thinks about some messy things all day long. ”
Xu Xiansheng and Cha Yinze, who were laughing, were stunned when they heard this, but they immediately returned to normal, and only looked at An Junhyuk, who had been maintaining a respectful posture in front of them, a little strangely, and nodded: "No problem!"
Both of them are old fritters who have been in the circle for a long time, how can they not hear the off-strings of Kwon Bogen's words, obviously the rookie singer in front of him who debuted as an actor and has good singing skills has his own ideas about the MV, probably because the company does not agree with his identity as a producer, so Kwon Bo Gen, as his agent, uses this obscure way, hoping that they can listen to his opinion a little.
The two looked at each other and agreed very simply. The main thing is that they have experienced a lot of similar things, many singers have their own ideas about MVs, as MV directors, they often have to work with singers, and it is impossible for them to refuse all of them, most of the time they will listen to some opinions of singers, of course, the most important thing is because singers do know their songs better than them.
It's just that I don't know what I think in my heart, maybe I will be disdainful and irritable, but Ahn Jun-hyuk can't care about it so much.
Last time, I asked Quan Baogen to help the company fight for the power of supervising the producer, and the company's reply was really as he considered later, and rejected it without the slightest room for negotiation.
Ahn Jun Hyuk in order to make the MVs of the two title songs more in line with the artistic conception and not be misinterpreted, when the company does not agree to his supervision, he can only rely on this method to strive to achieve his goals.
On the way to the hotel not far from the company, he looked for an opportunity to avoid other people's Kwon Bo-geun, and said, "Jun-hyuk, I can only try my best to help you with this, and then whether the two directors will listen to your opinions or not, you have to work on your own." ”
"I understand!" Ahn Jun Hyuk nodded, "Did the company help me find a good heroine for the MV?"
"I've found it, it's a trainee in the company, you should remember that the company is going to launch a women's foursome group this year, right?"
"Remember, The.Grace?"
"Well, the official name is 'The.Grace', and it's scheduled to debut in May of this year, and the company wants to have Stephanie and Sunday appear in your music video. ”
Since that time, the concept of seniors leading to juniors, and Ahn Junhyuk as a successful model, the company is now quite enthusiastic about this kind of initiative. The four members of Heavenly Jihee, Ahn Jun-hyuk also heard about it when he was a trainee, are all seniors with relatively old qualifications, and two of them have already released solo singles, but their debuts are all abroad, and they are not well-known in China.
Now that they are going to make their debut as a group, the company obviously hopes to take them through Ahn Jun Hyuk to increase their popularity. …,
Ahn Joon-hyuk had nothing to object to this, and two days later, the MV for "1 Minute and 1 Second" started filming first, and he also met Kim Bo-kyung for the first time with the stage name Stephanie......
In the busy studio, the staff are setting up the set, all kinds of noise and shouting are full of ears, and in the rest area not far away, Ahn Joon-hyuk and director Seo Hyun-seung, who is in charge of this MV, discuss the MV script. Because the lyrics of this song are flashbacks, stripping out the pain and remembrance of falling out of love layer by layer, so yesterday Ahn Jun-hyuk proposed that when he wanted the MV to show the effect of going back in time, Seo Hyun-seung thought about it and immediately agreed.
This doesn't make it much more difficult to shoot, and the biggest difficulty is only shown by Ahn Joon-hyuk - in order to lip-sync in the effect of going back in time, he needs to recite the lyrics backwards when shooting.
After this, seeing Ahn Jun Hyuk's understanding of the song, Seo Hyun Seung paid a lot of attention to his opinion, and many details were also discussed with him, of course, valuing his opinion does not mean that everything is up to him, and during the set, the two sometimes argue over some small issues. Ahn Joon-hyuk has no directing experience, but he has filmed a TV series and lived in the crew for a few months, so he is no stranger to many of the jobs of filming, not to mention that he has the impression of the "original" MV in his mind, and occasionally he notices that something is wrong, so he proposes it to the director, and then they will try to convince each other.
When Kim Bo-kyung arrived, Ahn Jun-hyuk was using her unskilled painting skills to draw a storyboard, and while arguing fiercely with Seo Hyun-seung, she stood by helplessly, not daring to interrupt their conversation or leave without permission.
It wasn't until Ahn Jun-hyuk finished drawing the sub-shot, compared it with Seo Hyun-seung's sub-shot, and finally persuaded him, and when he raised his head, he saw this nervous girl who had been waiting for a long time, her hands holding a satchel tightly together, and her knuckles began to white.
"Uh, ...... you?"
Jin Baojing, who has slightly curly long hair, a simple knitted sweater on his upper body, and washed jeans on his lower body, hurriedly bowed: "Junhyuk senior, Director Xu, hello, I'm Jinbao...... No, I'm Stephanie, please take care of the seniors and directors for the next shooting!"
Greeting her, Seo Hyun-sung just nodded slightly, and then said to Ahn Jun-hyuk: "Since the heroine is here, you two will talk, I'll go and see how the set is prepared first." ”
Ahn Jun-hyuk got up and politely watched him leave, before smiling at Kim Bo-kyung: "Waited for a long time, right? I'm sorry, I forgot the time a little when I talked to the director, come, sit." ”
Jin Baojing whispered a word of thanks to him, and then sat down on the stool beside him, sitting in a well-behaved and ladylike manner, as if the teacher had demonstrated the standard manners to the female trainees when Ahn Junhyuk had taken an etiquette class.
Thinking of those days, the corners of his mouth hooked up with a smile, and he said gently: "Don't be too nervous, Uncle Baogen has shown me your information, my hometown is Busan, right? ”
The last sentence, he said it in the Busan dialect, wanting her to relax a little, sure enough, hearing the familiar local accent, the girl's shoulders that had been tense, subconsciously relaxed, stared at Ahn Junhyuk in surprise, covered her mouth with one hand, and her eyes flashed with surprise: "The predecessor is also from Busan?omo...... I didn't even know how to ...... it," but despite her surprise, she still maintained her demeanor, showing that the company's training results were remarkable.
Seeing her with good manners, I don't know what I am, Ahn Joon-hyuk suddenly thinks of Yoon-a, Taeyeon, and so-yeon.
Among the girls I know, if you want to say that the most naughty, it is naturally the poisonous tongue of Xiuying, and the always crazy Yoo-ri, Yuna can only be ranked behind the two of them, and then Taeyeon, Xiaoxian, and Xiuyan. But even if the two people are so naughty, if they get serious, their posture will become very upright, Xiuying is a relationship between family education and activities in Japan, and Yuli, thanks to many years of sports and dance practice, not to mention Xiaoxian, who has always been strict in following the rules. …,
There are only Yoona, Taeyeon and Suyeon, these three girls always can't control their image, Yoona smiles and opens her mouth wide, like a crocodile, while Suyeon is always very lazy, when her mind is empty, her sitting posture and walking posture are similar to those of the community uncle, as for Taeyeon...... The two of them used to play a shooting game in the singing studio, and before she danced, the action of the aunt who subconsciously lifted the belt of his trousers always came to his mind......
In the past two days, the company is selecting the first batch of candidate members for the new large-scale girl group project, and I wonder if the three sloppy girls will be brushed off.
There was a faint concern in my heart, but soon after, this worry was dispelled by the busy work. The shooting of the MV is not a difficult job for Ahn Jun-hyuk, who has starred in a TV series, but he needs to do more than this, he has to continue the recording of songs, continue to complete the choreography at the end, and on the other hand, he also has to start the production of the single "No More Love" on Baek Ji-young's side.
Although the other party did not urge, after all, it has been delayed for so many days, and it didn't start some time ago, because of the impact of the "X-Files" and "conscience" incidents, he basically didn't dare to go out, and now the media has relaxed its attention on him, of course, it's not good to delay any longer.
At the beginning of February, after a busy day of filming, Ahn Jun-hyuk hurried to a production company, and Baek Ji-young, who had arrived early, was already waiting outside the studio that he had rented a long time ago.
"I'm sorry, Sister Jiyoung, there's a traffic jam on the road!" Ahn Jun-hyuk, who raised his wrist to look at his watch and realized that he was a little late, said apologetically.
"It's okay, I've only been there for a while. Baek Ji-young smiled slightly, but from her eyes, Ahn Jun-hyuk could read the anxiety in her heart. Of course, the anxiety is not because of his tardiness, but because the two will start the recording of "No More Love" today.
Yes, only two people.
Now everyone basically avoids Baek Ji-young, since she terminated the contract with the original company last year, she doesn't even have a brokerage company at present, the production of this single, or she rented a recording studio out of her own pocket to record it, and the post-editing and other work also had to be handled by her and Ahn Junhyuk, everything was very simple, so she couldn't help but be anxious.
Fortunately, it was a lyrical song that required very little mixing and audio editing, and the only thing to worry about was whether she would really be suitable, or really able to perform this lyrical style, which had never been tried before.
Regardless of the hesitation in her eyes, Ahn Joon-hyuk went to the recording studio first, took off the backpack he was carrying, and took out the sheet music and other things from it, and asked, "Have you been familiar with this song lately?"
The score was given to her as early as the day the "X-Files" broke out, so many days were enough for her to understand the song thoroughly.
Sure enough, Bai Zhiying nodded without hesitation: "It's very skilled." ”
"Okay, do you have any opinions? If you have an opinion, mention it now, and start recording later, and then you will regret it, and it will be a waste of your money. ”
This was naturally a joke trying to ease her mood, Ahn Jun-hyuk didn't think she would give her an opinion at all, but as soon as his voice fell, Bai Zhiying hesitated, but still nodded vigorously: "Yes......"
"......" Ahn Junhyuk looked at her in surprise, and then asked curiously, "What is your opinion?"
"The lyrics are too thin...... her face turned a little red, and as soon as the words came out, she reacted and seemed to be slightly ambiguous, and quickly explained: "It's not that the lyrics are bad, but ...... I don't think the lyrics can reflect the poignancy of the lyrics if you just sing it, I thought...... Can you make a MV? I'll ......" Seeing Ahn Jun-hyuk looking at her in a daze and not speaking, she opened her bag a little flustered, and pulled out a few A4 sheets of paper from it, "These...... It's a brief script I wrote, and you'll see if you can find a director to shoot it? ”
Suspiciously took the pages of the script in his hand, and the more he looked at it, the more strange Ahn Junhyuk's face became, and he finally understood a little bit that she was stumbling for what she was doing, because ...... The plot described in this script really can't help but make people have some weird ideas.
Bai Ji-young waited anxiously for his evaluation, but saw that Ahn Jun-hyuk had not moved for a long time, and couldn't help but hurriedly say: "Jun-hyuk, what do you think......?" Don't you feel like you can accept it?"
"Ah...... No!" Ahn Jun-hyuk, who suddenly woke up from his thoughts, shook his head, looked at it in a daze for a while, and said with a little crying and laughing: "I'm just, heh...... I just suddenly remembered that I could help you find the actors......"
As he spoke, his lips seemed to be smiling and not smiling, and he didn't know what he thought of, turning into uncontrollable brightness and banter.
