Chapter 40: Who Is More Suitable Than I?
"Teacher Li Shengyu, I haven't seen you for a long time, and I don't know when I will be able to get the teacher's guidance again. Just chatting with Jiang Shiqi and Bae Zhuhyun, it wasn't until Li Shengyu pushed open the door and walked into the practice room that Wang Nanqian realized that it was almost time for the trainees to conduct classes in the afternoon. He quickly bent down to say hello to the teacher who had taught him vocal lessons for years and helped EXO record their debut mini-album.
Seeing the three female trainees bow and salute while exiting the practice room, Li Shengyu opened his mouth to the boy in front of him who he hadn't seen for a long time: "What?
Why is it that even the company's vocal music teacher is not serious? Finding that Pei Zhuhyun, who was about to close the door, blushed like a cute apple, Wang Nanqian quickly shook her head violently: "They are all juniors who were close to each other before their debut, and the day before yesterday the company temporarily arranged for me to come back for a trip, and I haven't worked for the past two days, so I came to the company to see the recent situation of the juniors." β
Wang Nanqian can also be regarded as a child brought out by Li Shengyu for so many years, although he is a little unaccustomed to changing his title to the other party's stage name after his debut, but his tone is still as kind as ever: "Nan, I saw your stage in China." You guys made a mess on that debut show in China, and did you get scolded later?"
This is really a pot that can't be opened, and the performances on that showcase are about to become their black history, Wang Nanqian had to respond to the vocal teacher with a wry smile: "I was scolded by Brother Xuanjun miserably, and after that, we were even reviewing dance moves when we were sleeping." β
"Is your M team going back to South Korea to play songs? I seem to have heard this rumor these days," Lee Seung-woo can now basically be regarded as a vocal teacher who has been arranged by the company to give special guidance to the EXO group, and he can naturally learn about the company's senior management's future arrangements for this group at a certain time, "If you come back to play songs, you must practice hard, Team K just had a stage accident a few days ago, and there must be no such thing in the future." β
Hearing Li Shengyu mention it, Wang Nanqian remembered that he had also heard Li Chenghuan talk about D.O's child singing a high note on the singing stage, and he was ready to find an opportunity to enlighten and enlighten this child, but after Bian Boxian's incident yesterday, he forgot about it all of a sudden.
Bowing goodbye to Li Shengyu again, Wang Nanqian withdrew from the practice room with his back on his back. I just comforted the little girl who just joined the company, and she looks like a reliable senior, but who would know the troubles in his heart? Although Bian Boxian and D.O are both members of Team K, and their affairs should be in charge of Jin Junmian according to reason, but Wang Nanqian, as the eldest brother in the team, how can he ignore these things?
The trainees appeared one after another in the underground corridor of the S.M. company, Wang Nanqian kept nodding in response to these respectful greetings to him, and walked towards the world on the ground: now he is already a person who belongs to the "ground", and is no longer a person who can only live in the "underground", but there are still so many worries and troubles in life. When I was a trainee, I was always worried about my debut, and I finally debuted as an artist, but I had so many new worries.
"Oops, isn't this our big star?
This greeting female voice is a little familiar? Why have you heard it anywhere? Wang Nanqian, who was burying her head and climbing the stairs, habitually walked out of her mouth like a trainee: "Hello, come on, practice......
"Got it, senior, I'll practice well. Wu Zhimin couldn't help but laugh out loud as he listened to the unconscious answer of the man who lowered his head and didn't know what he was thinking. Sensing that the other party regarded herself as a trainee, she jokingly answered the other party in the same way that the trainee answered her seniors.
Hearing the person who greeted him laugh in a low voice, Wang Nanqian raised his head to look at the woman who was standing at the staircase of the basement floor, and after seeing the other party's face clearly, he hurriedly bent down: "Why is it Zhimin senior? Why did you suddenly run underground? I thought it was a trainee, I'm so embarrassed." β
"I'm not wrong about some kind of Cheng dΓΉ. After all, I haven't officially debuted in China yet, so I should call you a senior. Wu Zhimin smiled and waved his hand, signaling that the man in front of him did not need to be so respectful to himself, "Aren't you propaganda in China?
"If you have to say according to the seniors, we EXO-M have not officially appeared on the singing stage in Korea, so we can't be considered a debut artist for the time being. Walking up the stairs, Wang Nanqian copied the guitar that the woman was carrying into his hand. He always feels a little sorry for this company predecessor who debuted in Japan early but was unknown in South Korea: after all, it was because he was exposed to the scandal with Kim Taeyeon that the stage of the senior at the SBS song war at the end of last year was temporarily replaced, "So it's not wrong for me to call you senior." β
This guy is still so caring, the guitar in his hand was taken by the other party, and Wu Zhimin generously turned around and walked in front: "Okay, okay, none of us care who is called senior, isn't it good to use plain language? I wish I had known that I should have dragged you to do a mixed voice with me anyway, and I could also touch your light. β
If he made his solo debut, or if he really did some kind of mixed voice combination with Oh Jimin, what would he be like now?...... It's better to be a teammate with a "popular king" like Lu Han, and subconsciously shrunk his neck, Wang Nanqian didn't dare to say what he really thought in his heart: "Haven't you already sung several OSTs this year? What kind of martial god, I think the OST in it sounds very good, why hasn't the company made your official debut yet?"
"Have you heard my songs?" Since this man was selected into the group EXO, how busy their preparations are, Wu Zhimin, as an artist in the company, naturally knows very well. Hearing that the other party knew that she knew the OST she sang for the TV series, she couldn't help but jump in her heart: "Actually, I don't think it's a very good song, but I still tried my best to perform it, what does Nan Qian Oppa think?"
"Actually, it was Zhong Da's kid who told me at first, what was it called...... Oh, what's it called?" Seeing Wu Zhimin quickly turn around, looking at him with expectant eyes like a child, Wang Nanqian couldn't help but want to tease this woman. He thought for a moment before he joked hesitantly.
I don't know what the title of the song is? Wu Zhimin can't wait to punch the man who deliberately has a straight face: "If you haven't heard it, you honestly haven't heard it, are you deliberately hitting me like this? Although I am really just a little singer that no one knows at all." β
Wang Nanqian didn't expect Wu Zhimin to react so much, was it really a joke? He hurriedly remedied his mistake: "I'm joking, really." The song you sang is very good, it's called time and space love, right? It's a style I like very much, the piano accompaniment and strings match your voice very well, and the interpretation is very delicate, it's really great. β
"Who knew you were joking?" This guy not only knows the title of the OST song he sings, but can even tell it in such detail, he must have listened to it well, right? Wu Zhimin's heart was full of joy, and she suddenly became cheerful again, "Nanqian Oppa, do you have any energy to write songs recently?"
Writing songs? Is Wu Zhimin inviting himself to sing? Since he was temporarily removed from SHINee's debut plan nearly four years ago, he has been working hard to tap his creative talent: although he thinks he has the ability to write a good melody, but it is the first time he has been invited to sing by others like this, Wang Nanqian can't help but feel his heart beat faster: "What kind of song do you want? As long as you open your mouth, I can squeeze out time even if I am busy with my schedule." β
"This matter is still a secret, Nan Qian Oppa, you must not tell it," even if the man said this on purpose, Wu Zhimin still felt very useful, "Now SBS TV has a Mizuki drama planned to be broadcast in August, and there may be several artists from the company to star, and I heard the day before yesterday that the company is going to arrange for me to take this opportunity to make my official debut in the OST of this drama." Nanqian Oppa, would you like to write me a song?"
Officially debuted?August?Looking at this woman's rare bright expression, Wang Nanqian also became happy for her: "I'll congratulate you in advance, but for such an important song for you, let me write it, okay?
"Actually, I've been looking for you since I knew the news," Wu Jimin has never forgotten how hard her life was during the time when she had nothing to do all day at the end of last year, and she was able to start singing OST one after another at the beginning of this year, all because this man helped her once in his debut selection exam--so this time, she also wanted to take a gamble on this man-- Ever since she heard that she was going to make her official debut with an OST, Wu Jimin was already thinking about whether to contact this man, and now that she met in the company, she naturally shared her joy with the other party, "You are now a topic of conversation in the composition industry, and I want to borrow the popularity of S.M.'s popular idol." β
Even if you want to borrow popularity, you should still go to Luhan to compare, that guy is a hot character. He pouted and held the door of the stairwell on the second floor for Wu Zhimin: "Is it really okay?
"I'll try to communicate with them, but only if you write a good song, Oppa. β
This woman is probably using the method of agitation, right? It's old-fashioned, but it's very practical. Wang Nanqian only felt that his heart of victory and defeat was ignited by this woman's words, and he made up his mind to write a good song: "The style, the background, and the theme?"
Wu Jimin looked at the man with a serious expression, and for some reason, she suddenly felt confident: "It's an inspirational song, although I haven't seen the script yet, but I heard the agent Oppa say that the theme of this TV series seems to be a story of a failed person who succeeds again." β
What better way to write this song than to write a song about a failed man who succeeds again?
Just as he was about to open his mouth to promise Wu Jimin a good song for her, the phone vibrated in his pocket first, and he nodded apologetically at the woman who smiled and shook her head, and he picked up the phone with his empty right hand: "Hello?"
"NAN, I'm Lee Seung-hwan, are you and Lu Han in the dormitory?"
Isn't Lee Seung-hwan catching up with Team K for today's trip? What will happen if he calls him at this time?" β
"The company just informed me that Team M has a new itinerary in China the day after tomorrow, and I will send you and Luhan to the airport tonight, and Lin Xuanjun will be waiting for you there. You and Luhan must put away your things by 6 p.m., and I'll send you away as soon as I send the kids back to the dormitory. β
What is this? Temporary itineraries, all temporary itineraries, do I and Lu Han deserve to be tossed like this? Wouldn't it be good to do good publicity in China, but I have to come back to make a cameo appearance in a MV - not to mention the broken mobile phone, the two of them also inexplicably co-starred in a farce with Bian Boxian - and these things could have been avoided, all because those people in the company's planning department burned out their brains, are they sick?
Wu Zhimin didn't know what the man heard on the phone, she only knew that the other party's whole face darkened after answering the phone: looking at the man who was frowning silently, she asked cautiously: "Nanqian Oppa, what's going on?"
"Axi ......" was about to burst into foul language, Wang Nanqian gritted her teeth angrily, "Here comes the temporary job again, it looks like I'm going to catch a plane." But don't worry, I'll definitely give you a good song. β
