Chapter 32: Tenderness

Early in the morning, Zhao Yuanxi received a call from his agent, Uncle Song Ki-beom, informing him to participate in the music center program of MBC TV at 4 o'clock in the afternoon. Song Jifan informed Zhao Yuanxi of his singing itinerary in the past three days, and reminded him again early in the morning, Zhao Yuanxi shook his head and hung up the phone, Uncle Song Jifan is really meticulous.

The Music Center is a live program of MBC TV, which airs once a week at 4 p.m. Seoul time, and the show was abolished in 2006 to become a pure song promotion platform. There is no ranking, which means that there is no pressure, it is just a new song promotion, in fact, Zhao Yuanxi has never had pressure to stand on the stage, and there is only an infinite desire in his heart. There is no competition and ranking, Zhao Yuanxi can make some bold attempts and changes in the form of performance, and cooperating with Girls' Generation on stage is undoubtedly a very attractive idea.

Zhao Yuanxi came to the exclusive training room of Girls' Generation on the first floor, at this time, the girls of Girls' Generation finished a stage of dance rehearsals and rested separately, Jessica sat on the floor honestly and unceremoniously, obviously the continuous and intense choreography consumed a lot of her strength.

"Jessica, do you have time in the afternoon?" Zhao Yuanxi casually walked into the practice room of Girls' Generation, greeted the girls with a smile, and sat down with Jessica's body and asked softly.

Jessica was dressed in a light sportswear, with a cute apple head, her face was a little pale, she glanced at Zhao Yuanxi, gasped and said, "What's the matter?" ”

Zhao Yuanxi chuckled and said, "I want to invite you to be my guest performer." ”

"Is it to participate in the song?" Lin Yun'er walked over with great interest when she heard this.

Zhao Yuanxi nodded and said, "Today's MBC Music Center." ”

Seeing Zhao Yuanxi nodded, Lin Yun'er smiled and said, "Yuanxi Oppa, why don't you invite me?" ”

Zhao Yuanxi said with a smile: "You can also be invited, wait until you learn to sing "In My Song" in the three Chinese dialects." ”

"That's it." Lin Yun'er stuck out her tongue and ran away.

Jessica couldn't refuse Zhao Yuanxi's request, attending the singing stage to increase exposure is only good for the artist, there is no harm in the artist, at this stage, Girls' Generation has very little itinerary, and it is undoubtedly very beneficial for the team to be able to increase attention for Girls' Generation.

The two went up to Zhao Yuanxi's practice room on the fourth floor to rehearse, Jessica was responsible for the English part and the Korean part of the whole song, Zhao Yuanxi knew that Jessica's instrument was the piano, so even the piano performance was also in charge of her, and he could just liberate himself from the piano and stand in the center of the stage. The song "In My Singing" Zhao Yuanxi has performed many times for Girls' Generation, and the language is also English and Korean that Jessica is familiar with, so there is no need to do more practice, Zhao Yuanxi appropriately modifies the lyrics, and the two only need to make some slight adjustments in coordination and cohesion.

The live broadcast of the music center was held in the open hall of the MBC Dream Center, and Zhao Yuanxi and Jessica arrived at the venue half an hour early. Thanks to the fox and fake tiger power of S.M company, Zhao Yuanxi's name and background have been widely spread on many TV stations, and no matter which TV station, Zhao Yuanxi was treated as a guest of honor and given him special treatment.

With Zhao Yuanxi's character and his current momentum, not particularly heavyweight seniors don't need to visit, and Song Ki-beom, the debut stage of Zhao Yuanxi's debut, only led a visit to Lee Hyo-ri and other seniors. Zhao Yuanxi can ignore the rules of the entertainment industry because of his big backstage, but Jessica can't, Girls' Generation can't, Zhao Yuanxi listened to the advice of his agent Uncle Song Ki-beom, and took the initiative to meet the seniors in the music industry with Jessica, not for himself and for the reputation of Jessica and Girls' Generation.

The rules of the Korean entertainment industry are strictly defined, even if the debut time is a day earlier, it is called a senior, and the Girls' Generation, which debuted less than a year ago in 07, is an out-and-out new generation of small characters in the music industry, and almost casually knocking on a standby room is a senior, including WonderGirls and BigBang, which debuted not much earlier than them, and BrownEyedGirls, who debuted earlier. Zhao Yuanxi has just arrived, and many groups have never heard of it, but today it is purely a blessing to Jessica.

WonderGirls is a five-member girl group launched by JYP in 2007, and WonderGirls are undoubtedly lucky compared to Girls' Generation, and in their first year of debut in 2007, they achieved great success with the song "TellMe".

The same five young and beautiful five girls, with slightly childish faces, were taught meticulous and standardized behavior. WG's captain Min Xianyi accepted Cho Yuanxi's autographed record on behalf of WG, and at the same time gave back their single record.

The two returned to their waiting room after the visit, and happened to meet Lee Hyori and her agent walking over, Jessica hurriedly stopped and bowed, "Hello senior, I'm Jessica from Girls' Generation." ”

Li Xiaoli smiled and waved his hand: "No need to be polite. ”

Zhao Yuanxi smiled and saluted, "Sister Xiaoli." ”

"What surprises is the stage going to bring me today?" Lee Hyo-ri asked casually.

Zhao Yuanxi's debut stage brought her great shock and deep impression, she had a good impression of the talented Zhao Yuanxi, and she spoke very casually. Jessica was very surprised, Zhao Yuanxi had only been in South Korea for a week, and when he visited just now, he even didn't know how to say anything about the major girl groups and boy groups in the music industry, but he didn't expect to be very close to Lee Hyori's predecessors.

Zhao Yuanxi smiled: "I will cooperate with Jessica of Girls' Generation, it should be considered a surprise." ”

Lee Hyo-ri smiled, "I look forward to your surprise, don't let me down." ”

Zhao Yuanxi smiled faintly: "If Sister Xiaoli is disappointed, I will invite Sister Xiaoli to eat to make amends." ”

Li Xiaoli's eyes rolled, "If you say so, then I may be deliberately disappointed today." ”

"That's my pleasure too."

Lee Hyori hid his face and smiled.

The position of the four people standing in the middle of the formal corridor, there are many people coming and going, and it is not a suitable occasion for conversation, so they hurriedly chatted for a few words, and each will have its own standby room.

"You seem to be very close to Lee Hyo-ri's seniors?" Back in the separate standby room, Jessica couldn't help but voice the doubts in her mind.

"It should be said that there is fate, just like me and you."

Zhao Yuanxi's casual words evoked Jessica's past memories, and glanced at him secretly, with a gentle look flashing in her eyes.

"Why did you invite me to be your guest performer?" Jessica asked softly.

"I need a good partner, and the first person that comes to mind at that time is you," Zhao Yuanxi said with a smile, "You know that there is no ranking in the Ludao Music Center, so I want to try to change it on stage, and male and female harmony singing may bring people a novel experience." ”

"I like your voice," Zhao Yuanxi added after a moment's thought, "like warm milk chocolate gliding through the delicate velvet, sweet and soft." ”

The speaker is unintentional, the listener is intentional, a simple metaphor, Zhao Yuanxi's unintentional words make Jessica as sweet as honey.

"Really?" Jessica looked up at Zhao Yuanxi, her black and white eyes shining.

"Of course." Zhao Yuanxi nodded seriously.

Jessica bit her lip gently, her fair face flushed with joy.

On the stage of the music center this time, Zhao Yuanxi was also arranged in the finale, with the precedent of KBS, coupled with Zhao Yuanxi's popularity, MBC's arrangement is logical.

After receiving the staff's prompt on stage, Zhao Yuanxi and Jessica each changed their singing clothes, Jessica wore a white short skirt, fresh and lovely, and Zhao Yuanxi was also wearing a white round-neck suit, if the two of them did not appear on the stage but appeared at the wedding banquet, it could be used as a wedding dress.

Zhao Yuanxi's outstanding performance in the music bank gathered a lot of popularity for him, and the audience saw Zhao Yuanxi dressed in white on stage and spontaneously applauded him, and the whole studio hall remembered thunderous applause.

"Yuanxi Oppa has appeared."

With the shouting of Kim Hyo-yeon, who served as the announcer of the show, the seven girls of Girls' Generation quickly gathered in the living room and gathered in front of the TV to watch the live show.

"Yuanxi Oppa is so handsome." Sunny exclaimed.

"It's just Prince Charming." Choi so-young echoed.

Tiffany and Kwon nodded their heads in approval.
