Chapter 23: Introduce a Friend
Soon half a month has passed, and as time goes by, EXO's popularity has obviously increased a lot, and the news of their upcoming debut can be seen in many places, and I heard that Xia Guo has also published a lot of advertisements.
At this time, Lee Seung-hwan, the head of the agent's office, was talking to the members in the practice room:
"Today, the company has released the preview of your Showcase, and the official Showcase will be held on the 31st. And the debut stage of both of your teams is set for April 8th, and tomorrow after the end of the practice, everyone will have a day off, go back and get together with your family, and tell them that you are going to debut, and after this holiday, there will be no more time to rest until the end of the debut event. ”
"Inside!" All answered at the same time.
"Okay, disband, go back tomorrow and have a good rest for a day, and share the joy with your family and friends." Lee Seung-hwan clapped his hands with a smile and left the practice room, and the 12 members who were standing in a row just now immediately dispersed into several groups.
'It's a holiday tomorrow, and I can't leave today, so where will I go to eat?' Chi Jingyuan sat in the corner and leaned against the wall, took out his phone and flipped through it.
Originally, I wanted to invite Sunny back for a meal, but I remembered that when they sent a message two days ago, the other party said that they were going to the countryside to shoot the variety show "Youth Undefeated 2" in the next few days.
Ji Jingyuan heard that this variety show was very tiring to film, and the ratings of this season were very poor, it had fallen to four percent in the past two days, and there was no sign of recovery, and it continued to fall down with an irreversible attitude.
With such poor ratings, he estimates that the group of MCs and guests are tired of this show, and the atmosphere of both the MC team and the production team must be very poor when filming every day.
It's a pity that the contract is still not able to get off, and they will continue to torture each other for several months.
"Jingyuan." At this time, Wu Shixun ran over: "Do you have an appointment at night?" ”
"No, I'm thinking about where to eat at night. What do you propose? Ji Jingyuan looked up and asked.
"Come and have dinner together in the evening and introduce you to a friend." Wu Shixun patted him on the shoulder.
"Okay, shouting on the show?"
"Ani, let's not call Brother Xiu today, that friend is also 94 years old, and today is a meeting of S.M94Line."
“OK,GO! By the way, I'll go get a mask. Ji Jingyuan stood up and put his phone back in his pocket.
He has been in SM for more than a month, and his social circle is limited to EXO members, and half of them don't talk much. Outside of the group, he also knew Sunny of Girls' Generation, and there weren't many others.
Mainly because the practice is really busy and tiring, he had to conduct assault training when he first came, and then he was filming MVs and recordings in a row, so he didn't have much time to get to know anyone.
But although he doesn't know many people, the quality is quite satisfactory to him, although Du Junxiu and Wu Shixun have their own shortcomings, they are not bad, they are close in age, and they are already close to each other. There is also a Sunny who formed an 'airborne line' with him, and the two often send messages to chat and complain, and the relationship is very good.
And people born in the same year on the Peninsula are natural candidates, and there is not so much etiquette to get along together, although Chi Jingyuan is not from the Peninsula, but he is also willing to meet some of his peers.
The two walked out of the practice room, Wu Shixun took his mobile phone and sent a message, and after sending a few messages, he put the mobile phone away and chatted with Chi Jingyuan casually about other things.
They waited at the back door for a while, and a figure came running up to them.
The person who came was wearing a set of white and green color-blocked sports hoodies, the material is generally not a brand, and it should have been worn for a long time and the elbows were balling, and the lower body was ordinary blue sweatpants and black sneakers, the overall clothes may be one size larger, and it looks very loose on her.
She was tied with a high ponytail, and the person had already run in front of the two of them, and the ponytail was still floating in the sky the day after tomorrow.
"Ah, Nehathiyo, Jiang Shiqi Yi Mida!" Although it was the first time they met, the visitor did not see each other, but glanced at the two of them and watched Chi Jingyuan salute and introduce himself.
"Anihassai, Chi Jingyuan Yimida." Chi Jingyuan squinted and smiled in return, while looking each other up and down quietly.
The first impression is already formed in the brain, and the appearance is very characteristic and very recognizable. I don't wear much makeup now, Yan, it's average, but I smile quite cheerfully.
"Let's go first, talk as we go." Wu Shixun clapped his hands, looked outside the door at the same time, and reminded: "Jing Yuanling, put on the mask, don't be blocked by the rice again, I really don't know why your rice is so crazy." ”
After this period of brewing, the number of Ji Jingyuan's fans has continued to increase, although it is definitely not comparable to those hot groups that have debuted, but in terms of the team alone, his fans alone are almost the same as the other members of the ten people except LUHAN.
And many fans like him, they really like it, and they are very obsessed. Because there has been no exposure at all recently, many fans have taken the initiative to come to the SM company building to guard, and there are not many people who come, usually only five or six, but they are very persistent, and almost every day someone squats outside to take a look at him, resulting in him now having to wear a mask when he goes out, otherwise he will encounter a lot of trouble.
Chi Jingyuan nodded, took out the mask and put it on.
There are a lot of artists in and out of SM Company, so wearing a mask is not an eye-catching thing, and because Ji Jingyuan has little exposure and fans haven't seen him much, it is easy to hide his whereabouts.
The three of them set off from the company, Wu Shixun took the lead, and walked for about ten minutes to find a restaurant, which mainly sells bibimbap.
The trainees have no financial income, and the families of the two are not rich, so their lives are naturally based on the economy, and they are not as proud as the Sunny seniors who invited them to eat barbecue when they met for the first time.
Chi Jingyuan's family conditions are very good, but he doesn't mean to show off, he usually eats and wears no different from other members, and only when he goes out privately without training can he see a thing or two from his seemingly expensive private clothes.
The three of them each found a table to sit on, each ordered a bibimbap and chatted, Jiang Shiqi was not stage frightened, and took the initiative to speak: "Really, I feel that Jing Yuanxi in reality looks better than on the debut video, you should not have makeup, right?" Jinjia is really a skin that makes people jealous. ”
"Jing Yuan rarely wears makeup in private." Wu Shixun went to get three bottles of drinks and came back, and after giving them to everyone, he answered: "But he is not the only handsome guy here, can he be a little polite?" ”
"Cut ......" Jiang Shiqi pouted: "For the sake of this drink, I won't hurt you." ”
After speaking, she looked at Chi Jingyuan: "Jingyuan xi......"
"We're all the same age, just speak plain, and I'm from May, so I should be younger than you." Ji Jingyuan interrupted her and said with a smile.
"Well, I'm from February, so let's talk about it." Jiang Shiqi nodded: "Jingyuan, you are really famous among the trainees in the company." ”
"Oh? Are you sure? Chi Jingyuan laughed: "I think they should all scold me." ”
"Hmm...... To be honest, most of the time when you first came to the company was scolding you, after all, you are the ...... 'relation'. Jiang Shiqi hesitated a little when she said this, and looked at Chi Jingyuan twice, as if she was worried that he would be angry.
"Don't worry, Jing Yuan's personality is better than you think, he can read his bad comments in an appreciative tone, and he can also comment on the good or bad comments with a smile."
Wu Shixun shook his hand and said a few words in an admiring tone, but immediately added: "But his generosity is only in some aspects, and even if he is angry, he will not let you see it, he has a hand in hiding his emotions, he is simply a natural actor." ”
"You know me that well?" Ji Jingyuan looked at Wu Shixun and was a little surprised.
"Ah, you underestimate me too much, we have lived together for so long, you treat me as a pabo?"
Wu Shixun pointed at Chi Jingyuan dissatisfiedly: "It's this squinting smile, I thought it was very good-looking at first, it really made people want to get close, but after you get acquainted with him, you will find it very awkward." By the way, when he played Wu Saike, he kept this smile the whole time, wow, the memory is too deep. ”
"Even if you beat people, you still go over to slap people's faces and taunt them, it's still this smile, Jinjia is really a cold man."
