Chapter 696: Signing Meeting (1)
What is the general trend? From the overwhelming reports on TV, the Internet, newspapers, and magazines, from Asian countries to European and American countries, Zixi's name resounded all over the world with [Transformers 2 Comeback]. Even Time Magazine evaluated Zixi as one of the most influential young actors in the 10s of the 21st century.
In South Korea, the reports about Zixi have not stopped since the release of [Transformers 2 Comeback], and then although Michael Jackson's death grabbed the attention of some people, but with the box office of "Transformers 2 Comeback" becoming popular across the board, the global box office has exceeded $500 million in just half a month, and people are still paying more attention to Zixi.
Zixi successfully entered Hollywood, and he has been pushed to the altar in South Korea. As the most successful actor in Hollywood, the Korean people have the capital to be proud of, after all, Zixi debuted in South Korea, became popular in South Korea, and only entered Hollywood after the most reluctant.
Zixi is not the only one who has gone from South Korea to Hollywood, and the Hollywood blockbuster [Special Forces: The Rise of the Cobra] starring Lee Byung-hun will be released worldwide in August. What kind of impact will this Hollywood commercial blockbuster, which cost $170 million and took more than a year to shoot, bring to [Transformers 2 Comeback]? Zixi and Lee Byung-hun, the two handsome Korean guys, dominated the entire summer vacation of the world's film industry, and they fought their acting skills in the summer vacation, which one was better or worse? Which one do the South Koreans prefer?
These are all statements made by the South Korean media, but they are only reported in South Korea. Zixi is the actor of [Transformers 2 Comeback], and Lee Byung-hun is just one of the supporting characters of [Special Forces: The Rise of Cobra], the comparability between the two is really debatable, and the Asian and European and American media have not put the two on the same starting line at all.
In Hollywood, there are already rumors that Zixi will officially enter the hall of the 20 million club in the new [Transformers 3]. is about to start filming [Twilight 3 Lunar Eclipse], Zixi's salary is infinitely close to this figure, which is a high salary that only absolute superstars deserve.
If it is said that the Hollywood movie starring Zixi ignited the first shot of the summer vacation, then his debut single album has made countless people look forward to it. "Cold Noodles" is a song with Girls' Generation member Jessica, and the lyrics are light and funny, and I have heard of it in the "Infinite Challenge Song Festival". Many Zixi's fans are looking forward to the day when the record will be released, and the pre-sale on the Internet has long been popular, and it has also suppressed the limelight of Girls' Generation, which released a mini-second album at the same time.
"Cold Noodles" is certainly the song that Zixi debuted in the music industry, but Zixi has already stated on her personal webpage that she has no intention of developing in the music industry, and is still concentrating on the development of Hollywood. After all, all the proceeds of the record, except for the cost, are donated to the Star Charity Foundation for charitable purposes, and the operation and sales of the entire record will be monitored by the media, accountants and people from charitable foundations to ensure that not all the proceeds can be made transparent.
If you suspect that Zixi's singing is ugly, you may not be interested in the song "Cold Noodles", but when it comes to doing good deeds, it's completely different. Because the money to buy records is no longer for artists or record companies, but for charity, such a meaningful thing naturally many people who were not optimistic about Zixi's records also regarded it as a good deed.
With the addition of such a group of people, it is natural that "cold noodles" will be hotly discussed, and more people are already ready to buy it on the day of the record's release, because Zixi will attend the record signing with Girls' Generation member Jessica on the day of the record's release.
At the same time, as one of the directors of the Star Charity Foundation, Zixi will also invite many star artists to participate in the charity bazaar held on the same day, and all the star artists will take out the items they have used or collected for charity sale, and all the money will naturally belong to charity.
Celebrities who have already said they will participate include Ha Ji Won, Yoon Eun Hye, Yim Jung Hwa, Shin Min Ah, Kim Rae Won, Hyun Bin, Cha Tae Hyun, Yoo Jae Seok, Kang Ho Dong, Kim Jong Kook, Shin Ji, Lee Hyori, Girls' Generation, SJ, AfterSchool, Bigbang, and many other actors, singers, and MCs, and the scene is not inferior to the big awards held by any TV station.
[Transformers 2 Comeback] dominated the Korean film market, and "Cold Noodles" stole the scenery of Girls' Generation, which made a strong return to the stage, so Zixi suddenly ran to StarKing to perform magic, and she had a chance to grab TV ratings in the same time period. Although this episode of StarKing, which Zixi has a part of recording, has not yet been broadcast, SBS TV's variety show department is not a fool, and after recording the show that night, it has already started to edit and edit out the three most classic shots of Zixi in this episode of StarKing, and put them on the Internet as a trailer.
The first shot is to turn 10,000 won into 100 won dollars. The second shot is Zixi eating sushi processed by Girls' Generation, with tears and watery nose. The third shot is naturally a classic among the classics, imitating Kim Jong Kook and Yoon Eun Hye covering their ears, and this time it becomes Zixi covering Seo Hyun's ears in Girls' Generation. The editing seems to be deliberate, and all the earrings on Xu Xian's ears that were magically conjured before and after were edited.
This reverie-inducing picture did not cause the scandal between Zixi and Seo Hyun, whether it was Zixi's fans or Girls' Generation's SONE, they just laughed when they saw the picture on the Internet. They are well aware that Zi-hee is closer to Seo-hyun than her own sister, and WonderGirls member Hye-rui, who is Zi-hee's own sister, has complained to the media more than once that Seo-hyun has snatched her brother. From this point, it can be seen that Zixi only has feelings for Xu Xian for his brother and sister.
The picture deliberately made by the variety show department of SBS TV station did not receive the expected effect, and people were more interested in Zixi's magic and the picture of his tears and nose, what is the reason why Zixi does not have any image in front of the camera? There are also sharp-eyed people who noticed that the camera flashed over Zixi's dress as a rural peasant.
"OPPA, you said you were going to give us a gift, why hasn't there been any movement until now, you won't forget it again, right?" Xiuying, who sat in Zixi's nanny car with a dead face, asked unrelentingly pulling Zixi's clothes.
Today, they went to the signing of "Cold Noodles" with Zixi, not only because Jessica was in attendance, but all members of Girls' Generation also needed to attend the charity sale after the signing meeting. A group of ten people sat in three nanny cars, and in Zixi's car, Yuli, who was sitting next to Xiuying, said without being salty or indifferent: "How can people remember us dispensable people?" ”
Zi-hee has also felt Yoo-li's resentment towards herself these days, and it seems that Yoo-ri has not had a good face for Zi-hee since she made her relationship with Kim Tae-hee public. Although he occasionally laughs, as long as Zixi is present, he can't help but taunt a few words, or say something that embarrasses Zixi.
Zixi reached out and brushed Yooli's long hair, who wanted to dodge, but in the end he just snorted coldly and didn't make any moves. Gently stroked Yu Li's long straight hair, and said apologetically: "Yu Li! I know that it's wrong to hide from you before OPPA, but you also have to know that there is a lot of helplessness as an artist, can you forgive OPPA? You are very important relatives to me, how can you be dispensable? ”
"Are we really that heavy on OPPA?" Yuli asked with red eyes and sobs.
Under the gaze of so-young and Taeyeon, who was in the same car, Zi-hee nodded sincerely and said, "Of course! My mom and dad are not around, and you are the closest people in Korea. Zirui has complained to me more than once, and even the media has reported that my brother is far better to you than her own sister. ”
Yuri leaned on Zixi's shoulder and sobbed, but her face was no longer cold. Although she has a grudge against Zixi, it is because she is worried that Zixi will leave them and conceal the facts. I have known Zixi for five years, and I am as close as my brother, and I take care of them even more. When they were most helpless and hesitant, it was Zixi who helped them by their side, and it was Zixi who comforted them carefully and soothed their young and wounded hearts.
In Yu Li's heart, Zixi's status is not lower than that of her own brother at all. And Yu Li has become a fan of Zixi since his debut, and has joined Zi Xi's official Fanclub and become a veritable "knight", in many variety shows, Yu Li is even more outspoken, Zixi is her ideal type, and it has never changed, she has a vague expectation in her heart. But this expectation was destroyed by Zi-hee's disclosure of her relationship with Kim Tae-hee. Although it cannot be said that love turns into hate, it is inevitable to accumulate resentment. The fragile emotional trauma of a girl still needs warmth to make up for it.
Wrapping her arms around Yoo-ri's shoulders and patting them gently, the movements were very natural, and Taeyeon and Su-young of the car didn't say anything, and Zi-hee was used to their intimate behavior. In the past, they didn't feel anything when they were little girls, but now that they have grown up, this kind of behavior has been avoided as much as possible, but the members of Girls' Generation feel that this is a sign of Zixi's closeness to them, without any dissatisfaction or embarrassment.
To appease Yuli, Xiuying kept asking questions about gifts, and Zixi said helplessly: "Don't worry!" There will be gifts, but this one is for all of you in Girls' Generation, and it takes a bit of time to prepare. ”
Taeyeon made a small distance movement with her thumb and forefinger, and asked with a grin, "Can't OPPA reveal a little bit beforehand?" We promise not to tell anyone else. You keep saying that now, it all hangs up our curiosity, and it tickles our hearts. ”
"There's no surprise when you say it now." Zixi resolutely didn't fall for it, patted Taeyeon's forehead, and said, "Your girl's words are not convincing at all, so let's wait!" ”
"Humph!" Taeyeon touched her forehead, which didn't hurt at all, and turned her head to express her dissatisfaction.
Yu Li was comforted by Zixi for a while, and her mood improved a lot, she hugged Zixi's arm and asked, "OPPA, are you going to perform at MBC's music center today?" ”
Zixi shrugged and said, "Hmm! I want to sing 'Cold Noodles' with Sika, but this song is also because of the 'Infinite Challenge Song Festival', and tonight is the broadcast of the second episode of the 'Infinite Challenge Song Festival', so they want me and Sika to perform on stage. Not only can it increase the ratings of the music center, but it will also benefit from the 'infinite challenge'. So Brother Xiuzhe said that MBC had a good calculation and said that he would get more appearance fees for me. ”
"Humph! It's not so easy for us as singers to perform at the music center last time, and we really never dare to ask for an increase in the appearance fee. Taeyeon said with a little surprise.
Yu Li shook Zixi's arm and said, "That is, we are not like OPPA who are stars in the world. But today, the music center is MC with Pani and me, even the stars of the OPPA world have to buy me well, otherwise I will embarrass you! ”
"Still want to buy? I would have gone to the music bank to play songs and snatch one of you last night, see if you dare to be arrogant? ”
"Think we're afraid of you?" Taeyeon said disdainfully: "As far as OPPA's singing voice is concerned, it's not as good as a rookie trainee, and you still want to grab one with us?" ”
Zixi deliberately straightened his face and said, "Ah! I'm not that bad at singing, am I? ”
"Humph! It's not bad, it's just ugly. The three of them didn't give Zixi any face, and said bluntly, and after speaking, they looked at each other and smiled.
