Chapter 113: Farewell

On March 31, the last day of March, An Qixuan, the last remaining member of the HOT group that was once popular in Asia, held a farewell concert at the Hanyang University Auditorium, after which Ahn Qixuan will officially enlist in the army on April 1 and begin his two-year military service.

Two years is not a short time, especially for idol stars, two years is long enough, long enough for everyone to forget the name and appearance of an idol star, long enough to be forgotten by the Korean entertainment industry with extremely frequent metabolism.

Luckily, Ahn has long since left the category of idol stars and focused on the development of the Chinese market, and as the director and main composer of S.M, he is more engaged in behind-the-scenes work.

In South Korea, a country with a small number of people, enlisting in the military is considered an honor and a sacred ritual to do one's duty to the country. S.M's idols who did not have a trip were all invited to participate, of course, including Zhao Yuanxi.

Traveling with Cho Won-hee are several girls from Girls' Generation, Kim Tae-yeon, Jessica, Sunny, Kwon Yoo-ri and Lim Yoon-a.

The girls got into the car with a smile and a smile, Cho Won-hee was the last one to board the nanny car, Kim Taeyeon and the three sat in the front row, Jessica and Lim Yoona sat in the back row, Lim Yoona beckoned to him, pointed to the position next to him and said, "Oppa, sit here." ”

Zhao Yuanxi smiled and nodded, bent down to sit next to Lin Yun'er, Lin Yun'er moved her body to make more room for Zhao Yuanxi, Jessica pouted and pushed Lin Yun'er, protesting her squeezing herself.

The girls are all T-shirts with jeans, compared to Zhao Yuanxi's shirt casual clothes seem too formal, he in South Korea in addition to sportswear is basically formal wear and casual wear, even casual clothes and S.M company other artists private clothes are considered alternative, mainstream alternative.

Cho Won-hee, who worked as a fund broker before coming to South Korea, had to maintain a sense of seriousness and workplace attire that clients and colleagues trusted.

Habits and aesthetics do not change easily, and Zhao Yuanxi still maintains his own style.

Jessica's performance is like a naughty child, Zhao Yuanxi glanced at Jessica funny, Jessica combed a pear blossom hairstyle, light coffee-colored small wavy curls were casually draped over her chest, wide bangs almost covered her entire forehead, covering one side of her eyebrows, her eyes were a little puffy, and there was no trace of makeup, almost no makeup.

"Didn't you sleep well last night?" Zhao Yuanxi looked at Jessica and asked softly.

Lin Yun'er nodded and said, "Yes, I had insomnia last night, and Sicaoni accompanied me to talk until late." ”

"If I'm not mistaken, you don't seem to be in the same room."

"Taeyeon Oni, Suyoung Oni and I are in the same room, and Sikaoni and Hyoyeon Oni are in the same room."

Zhao Yuanxi quipped: "Then whose room are you in?" ”

"In Sicaoni's room, Xiuyingoni always said that we were talking in the room and making her sleep."

Zhao Yuanxi raised his eyebrows, "Sleep in the same bed." ”

Lin Yun'er smiled and said proudly: "Yes, we often do this. ”

"It's pink enough."

Even Jessica burst out laughing. Along the way, Zhao Yuanxi and the girls chatted and didn't feel sad about time, and it seemed that they arrived at Hanyang University in a blink of an eye.

The auditorium of Hanyang University is not large, it can accommodate about 1,500 people, and when Zhao Yuanxi and his party arrived, they were full of people, and they could see many aunts at a glance, and they made a special trip to support An Qixuan. Even though he has been away from South Korea for many years, Ahn Qixuan's popularity is still undiminished.

Ahn Qixuan's farewell stage is very simple, no other guests are invited, just interspersed with the junior cooperation stage within S.M. Kim Taeyeon made a cameo appearance on Ahn Qihyun's farewell stage, and the two sang "7989" written and composed by Ahn Qixuan himself, this song Cho Won-hee has heard the studio version performed by the two, and at this moment listening to the LIVE version feels different, especially Kim Taeyeon's emotional expression is more delicate, and the harmony between the two is beautiful and moving.

Jessica was intoxicated by the singing of the two of them, staring intently at the stage, unconsciously biting her right index finger.

Zhao Yuanxi asked with interest, "Are the fingers delicious?" ”

"Huh?" Jessica looked back at Zhao Yuanxi blankly.

Zhao Yuanxi made a gesture from Jessica's posture just now, "I see that you eat with relish." ”

"Where do I have?" Jessica has a habit of biting her fingers as soon as she is empty, and she will not notice it herself, and even if she does, she will not admit it.

"I think it's better to have chocolate." Zhao Yuanxi smiled and took out chocolate from his pocket and handed it to Jessica, he said on the variety show that he likes to eat chocolate just for the effect of the show, but in fact, he doesn't like chocolate much, but fans give him a large amount of chocolate, and he is also used to carrying some chocolate with him.

Jessica happily unpacks it and takes a small bite, the sweet touch filling the tip of her tongue.

"Oppa, what about mine?" Lin Yun'er poked out her little head and looked straight at Zhao Yuanxi over Jessica.

"Didn't you take a lot of chocolate from me yesterday?"

"Don't mention it," Lin Yun'er pouted and sighed, "Before I went back to the dormitory, I was divided by my sisters, and I didn't eat a piece." ”

"Well deserved." Zhao Yuanxi scolded with a smile, but still handed over a bag of chocolates.

Lim Yuna was not happy for two seconds when she took the chocolate, but she saw Sunny sitting next to Kwon Yoo-ri hooking her index finger at her, obviously thinking about chocolate. Lin Yun'er reluctantly broke half of it and handed it to Sunny, for fear that Kwon Yoo-ri would ask for it again, so she hurriedly took it in her mouth, and then smiled.

Quan Yuli secretly swallowed a mouthful of saliva, wanting to eat chocolate but embarrassed to ask Zhao Yuanxi for it. Zhao Yuanxi looked at Kwon Yoo-li's expression and was secretly amused, there was no one in this group of girls who didn't love sweets, so he took out the last bag of chocolates and handed it to Jessica, "Give it to Yoo-li." ”

"To Yuli." Jessica turned Lin Yun'er's arm and commanded without turning her head.

Kwon Yoo-ri looked at the chocolate in Lin Yun'er's hand as if she had seen a sparkling jewel, her eyes lit up, she slowly unpacked the package, and the teeth that were as fine as shellfish bit down, and the rich and sweet fragrance of the chocolate circulated in her mouth, which was really delicious.

Kwon Yoo-ri clapped her palms happily.

"Oppa, anything else?" Lin Yun'er finished eating half of the chocolate, licked her lips unsatisfied, turned her head and asked Zhao Yuanxi, the bright-eyed deer's eyes were shining.

"Do you think I'm a convenience store? This is a chocolate imported from Switzerland given by fans, and if you eat one piece, you will lose one piece. ”

"Hey." Lin Yun'er sighed in disappointment.

Jessica patted Lin Yun'er on the shoulder and handed over the half-bitten chocolate she had bitten off, "Give you a bite." ”

Lin Yun'er smiled like a flower, put her arm around her sister Sika's shoulder, lowered her head and took a big bite honestly and unceremoniously, Jessica smiled and ate the remaining small half of the chocolate, Yunsika looked at each other and smiled, satisfied with each other, sweet ripples.

Yunsika, you pair of pink CPs, you can't bear to look at them directly. Zhao Yuanxi sighed secretly.

At the end of the farewell concert, the group went to Cheongdam-dong, Gangnam-gu, where Chairman Lee so-man specially chartered a villa in Cheongdam-dong to hold a farewell dinner for Ahn Qixuan, and the guests were all artists and staff who debuted at S.M.

Li Xiuman was named a "tyrant" by Korean fans, but he was still very kind and humane to the artists under the company, and the artists of S.M Company also respected Li Xiuman very much and called him a teacher. And Li Xiuman himself likes the title of teacher.

The villa is large, with a white fence enclosing a flat lawn about one and a half basketball courts, and a white open-air shed is set up, and there are staff barbecuing in the open-air shed at this time.

Zhao Yuanxi and the five girls of Girls' Generation were the first to arrive, and Lin Yuna took Kwon Yoo-ri's hand, shouted, and rushed to the barbecue stand.

"Can I eat it?" Lin Yun'er asked as she looked at the squeaky barbecue.

received a positive reply from the staff, Lin Yuner picked up the roasted black pork with a plate in one hand and chopsticks in the other, ignoring the photographer next to her and the camera facing her.

"Ernie, Oppa." Lin Yun'er turned around and beckoned to Zhao Yuanxi and Jessica, who fell behind, while eating.

After eating barbecue for a while, the protagonist An Qixuan came over from Hanyang University, saw Zhao Yuanxi and his party eating barbecue lively, walked over with a smile, and said loudly: "It's so lively." ”

The girl from Girls' Generation hurriedly stood up and saluted, "Hello KangTa senior." ”

Zhao Yuanxi also stood up and saluted, "Brother KangTa." ”

"Sit down," An Qixuan smiled and pressed his hand to signal everyone to sit down, "Speaking of which, I'm hungry too." ”

Kim Taeyeon hurriedly put down her dishes and chopsticks, prepared tableware for Ahn Qihyun, and selected meat.

"Xie Lu Xie," An Qixuan took the chopsticks, ate a piece of barbecue, and nodded repeatedly, "It tastes great." ”

After eating a few pieces of barbecue, An Qixuan put down his chopsticks and said to Zhao Yuanxi: "Yuanxi, after I enlist in the army, the production department will ask you to worry a lot." ”

S.M's in-house contracted composers are not many, usually only the title track is produced by the company's in-house contracted composers, and the rest of the non-title tracks are produced by outsourced music companies.

Unlike YG, S.M does not encourage its artists to participate in the creation, or that the songs created by the artists cannot be used by professional composers, similar to Ahn Qi-hyun becoming a contracted composer after a long period of accumulation before obtaining the status of registration with the Composers Association.

In addition to the first generation of S.M, it is a unique case for S.M to be registered with the Composers' Association before his debut as an artist. What is especially valuable is that Zhao Yuanxi, as a Chinese, knows the pulse of the Chinese music scene better, which will undoubtedly be of great help to S.M to expand the Chinese market in the future.

"Brother KangTa is serious, the production department is in charge of Director Yu, two years have passed in a flash, and we look forward to Brother KangTa's return as soon as possible."

An Qixuan waved his hand and said: "Teacher Li Xiuman values you very much, I have listened to your two original Chinese folk songs "Falling Flowers" and "Dream" many times, and to put it bluntly, I am not as good as you in terms of grasping the Chinese pop music scene, and no one in the company can compare to you." I say that, do you understand? ”

Zhao Yuanxi nodded, "I understand." ”

An Qixuan looked at Zhao Yuanxi, his eyes faintly revealing expectation, "I will entrust you with the burden of expanding the Chinese market, two years, I hope you can give me unexpected surprises." ”

"I'm going to do my best."
