Chapter 37: The Heart (II)
"Scandal?" Zhao Yuanxi couldn't understand, "We're just cooperating on stage, so we can also spread scandals?" β
Jessica snorted softly and stopped talking. Jessica kept silent with a cold face at every turn, and Zhao Yuanxi felt helpless, she couldn't say anything well. took out his mobile phone to log in to South Korea's largest search platform, and the news made Zhao Yuanxi dumbfounded, saying that it was a scandal for him Zhao Yuanxi, and for Jessica, it was harsh accusations and vicious abuse.
"I'm sorry, Jessica, I didn't know about these things."
"I know." Jessica responded coldly.
"Jessica, can you imagine? We met on the plane a week ago, we talked in the practice room at S.M a week later, we were just strangers on the plane, and I don't think you nor I could have imagined that we would have a stage collaboration one day, just as we didn't expect a plane crash. Fate is so magical and awesome, isn't it? β
Zhao Yuanxi mentioned the plane crash, and Jessica's clear and cold eyes revealed a touching look, it was the man in front of him who sacrificed himself to protect himself.
"Before I came to Korea, I never dreamed that I would become an idol one day, it was purely a coincidence. When I made up my mind to embark on the path of idol stardom, I gave up all retreats, no matter whether there were thorns or abysses ahead, I would never back down until the end of my life. β
"The end of life? Do you plan to be an idol star for the rest of your life? Jessica looked at Zhao Yuanxi in surprise, she loves singing, acting, and stage, but she never wanted to be a singer for the rest of her life.
"Why not? All I do is just to make a name for myself, so that I will be mentioned in a hundred years, and mention the name Zhao Yuanxi," Zhao Yuanxi laughed at himself, "The pursuit of fame by any means is very utilitarian and worldly, isn't it?" β
"No," Jessica shook her head slowly, "very persistent, very open, and daring to face her heart." β
"Thank you, it's the most beautiful compliment I've ever heard."
Zhao Yuanxi looked directly into Jessica's bright eyes, "FollowMyHeart." Jessica, remember what you said? β
"Of course I do." This is her favorite sentence, and it is also the feeling she felt when Jessica and Zhao Yuanxi had dinner for the first time that day.
"I also want you to do it, as you want, carefree. The boring remarks of those naΓ―ve fans, whether it is a dream or a crazy person's crazy words, ignore it completely, go your own way, and let them shout," Zhao Yuanxi smiled, "It doesn't matter who hurt us or who defeated us, what matters is who makes us smile again, Jessica, for the people who like you, for the people who love you, for those who even dream of you, you have to smile brightly." β
A week ago, Zhao Yuanxi was a young and promising gold medal fund manager in China, and a week later, he became a hot idol star in South Korea. Fans, for Zhao Yuanxi, are just vague symbols, and they will not be more memorable to him than instant noodles.
It is the right of fans to chase idol stars, but Zhao Yuanxi will not bear the obligation to treat fans well, he has not even thought about it.
Fans are still like this, not to mention those ANTI, what does it have to do with him Zhao Yuanxi, let it die.
Jessica looked up and whispered, her bright eyes shining. After a short while, Jessica asked softly, "Why did you choose Taeyeon?" β
"What?" Zhao Yuanxi couldn't understand what Jessica meant for a while, and the jump of this question was too big.
"Does she sing better than me? Why didn't you choose her and not me? Jessica straightened her chest and looked proud, as if Zhao Yuanxi would not give up without giving an answer that satisfied her.
Hey, Kim Taeyeon is your teammate, Jessica, your desire to win is really nerve-wracking.
Zhao Yuanxi's head was suddenly as big as a fight.
The best way to solve a problem without a standard answer is not to answer it, and let the questioner find the answer for themselves.
Zhao Yuanxi tried his best to put on a serious expression, and said: "Sika, there are some things that I shouldn't have told you originally, but since you asked, I will tell you the truth." President Kim Young-min and Chairman Lee so-man have serious differences in the company's business philosophy, and the contradiction between the two is gradually heating up, and Girls' Generation is a girl group planned and launched by President Kim Young-min, and President Lee so-man in order to suppress President Kim Young-min's prestige and momentum, it is inevitable to limit the development of Girls' Generation, and the most direct and effective way is to extract resources that should have been allocated to Girls' Generation, supply TVXQ, SJ, and now add me. β
Even if S.M is a Korean entertainment giant, the company's resources are limited after all, and the simultaneous operation of two groups is already at full capacity, but fortunately, TVXQ is going to Japan to develop, and South Korea needs to operate SJ and Zhao Yuanxi, which can barely cope. Li Xiuman's practice of giving priority to the operation of men's groups is not inherently wrong, compared to women's groups, men's groups have always been the general trend, and female fans of opposite sex attract female fans to chase men's groups, and female fans are the main group of consumer Idols.
Jessica doesn't know about the fight between the company's top management, and she can't understand it, listening to what Zhao Yuanxi said, it seems to be true, Girls' Generation's current situation is not good, and her popularity has not been high since her debut in August 2007, and if they are really hidden by the company, then their years of hard training efforts are completely in vain. Jessica's face gradually turned white, she bit her lip tightly, and her eyes stared straight at Zhao Yuanxi, her gaze as sharp as a blade.
Zhao Yuanxi spread his hands and sighed: "You don't have to stare at me with this kind of eyes, these things are not for me to decide." β
Jessica knew that what Zhao Yuanxi said was true, but she still felt uncomfortable, as sad as Zhao Yuanxi betrayed her trust, and couldn't help but snort heavily.
"In the face of Chairman Lee so-man's step-by-step pressing, President Kim Young-min came to me in desperation and asked me to write a song for Girls' Generation in a private name, and I had the same goal as President Kim Young-min, so I agreed to his request. I'll write songs for you. β
Jessica had a glimmer of hope in her heart and asked, "But we are preparing for the album "DanceQueen" and choreographic training, and we will shoot the music video soon......"
Zhao Yuanxi interrupted Jessica's words, shook his head and said: "President Kim Young-min personally told me that there is a copyright dispute over "DanceQueen", and I am afraid that it will not be properly resolved in a short period of time, and as for your training and MV, I am afraid that President Kim Young-min has no choice but to collect new songs, and on the other hand, he hopes that the copyright negotiations will make progress." President Kim Young-min asked me to write songs for you, and I did promise that President Kim Young-min would write songs for Girls' Generation, you know that writing songs takes inspiration, it takes some time, and Girls' Generation must maintain enough exposure and attention until your new album is completed, and that's exactly why I invited you to be a guest on stage and collaborate with Taeyeon, Tiffany, and Seo Hyun. β
"I'm sorry." Jessica whispered.
"What?" It's not that Zhao Yuanxi deliberately made things difficult, he really didn't expect that the girl who looked cold and indifferent in front of him and didn't like to talk would actually apologize to him.
"I'm sorry," Jessica shouted up, "I misunderstood you. β
"Then dance with me." Zhao Yuanxi said as he turned on the computer and stereo placed in the corner, and played a dance song with a rhythm of three-quarters of a slow.
This practice room was originally BOA's exclusive practice room, the area is not large, fortunately, Zhao Yuanxi is also used by one person, can fully meet the needs, vocal director Yu Yongzhen took into account Zhao Yuanxi's need to practice dance, did not set up a separate studio for him, but added a complete set of recording equipment in his practice room, including computers and luxury speakers. Coupled with a separate lounge, Zhao Yuanxi's practice room is a convenient combination of creation, training and rest.
"Waltz?" As soon as Jessica listened to the rhythm of the dance music, she understood the type of dance chosen by Zhao Yuanxi.
Zhao Yuanxi nodded and said: "I practice Popping and Jazz every day, my muscles are about to stiffen, and I will become a mummy if I don't change to some soothing and free dance." β
Jessica couldn't help but laugh and gave Zhao Yuanxi a blank look, "Xiao Yuan and Yu Li can also practice Popping and Jazz, and they can practice much longer than you." β
Zhao Yuanxi touched his nose, "Okay, I'll take back what I just said." β
