Chapter 12: Rehearsal Acquaintances
Although Chi Jingyuan still has a little impression of them, he can't remember them clearly, because except for that "Idol Games", there is basically no intersection.
This group seems to be called eixd, or is it called exid...... I really can't remember Taihu Lake clearly.
However, Chi Jingyuan, who watched the stage for a while, really felt that the strength of this group was very good, and the typhoon was very good, wearing so thin on such a cold day, and there were few audiences watching below, and a few people performing on stage were still smiling, and wink was also very standard, and the expression management was really powerful.
The average appearance is not high, but one or two individual members are still very good-looking, and he feels that with the comprehensive conditions of this group, he should not be like this kind of nobody care.
It is estimated that the company is relatively small, and it is not good for operation and publicity.
Watching a member of the C position on the stage make a wink on his side, Ji Jingyuan nodded while guessing in his heart.
The company's operational ability is actually very important for idol artists. The strength of the company is very strong, even a very ordinary group can be packaged for you into a top preparation.
And some small companies with little ability, even if their group suddenly becomes popular with a song by accident and its popularity skyrockets, it will not be operated when it is handed over to the company, and it has no experience in operating this kind of fire group.
A typical example is the crayon troupe that was once as famous as EXO "Roaring Filial Piety" last year, when their "Barbarbar" was really popular, but it is a pity that such a high popularity and popularity, under the operation of the company, several awards at the end of the year were basically not received.
The follow-up resources haven't kept up, and there are very few die-hard fans, and now there are some people who don't care about it.
After watching this stage, after the five girls bowed and walked down, Chi Jingyuan and the others left here and continued to walk down.
"There are often artist roadshows here that do not receive TV announcements, and some trainees who have not debuted often come here to perform, in addition to accumulating popularity, they can also exercise their courage and typhoon."
Just a few steps away, Pei Zhuhyun next to him took a sip of his drink and took the initiative to speak.
She noticed Chi Jingyuan's somewhat puzzled eyes, and explained: "I think you seem to think it's quite novel, I'm afraid you don't know this." ”
"Isn't Jing Yuan Xi never a trainee, it's normal to not know this."
"Thank you." Ji Jingyuan glanced at her twice, thanked her with a smile, and asked curiously: "Has Zhu Hyun Xi also come here to perform?" “
"Our company's trainees generally rarely come, because in addition to the monthly month-end assessment, the company often holds public showcases, and the stage and equipment are much more formal than here, and the effect of exercise will be better."
"...... like this"
Ji Jingyuan nodded, didn't ask any more questions, and moved on to other topics.
Bae Joo-hyun looks very cold when she is expressionless, and she doesn't seem to care about the outside world.
But in fact, her age is not in vain, she is clear about many things, and Chi Jingyuan will have a feeling of 'increasing knowledge' from time to time when she chats with her.
But it didn't take long for them to go back, Chi Jingyuan still has work to make up for at night, and it is not for nothing that he comes out to walk around at night, and he will definitely have to work overtime again tonight.
Chi Jingyuan was about to withdraw, and the other three simply went back together, and Jiang Shiqi's adult birthday was a successful end.
And EXO also took a flight to Shonan in the summer country on February 13 to prepare for the live broadcast stage of the Lantern Festival Gala the next day.
Chi Jingyuan, who had just left for a few days, returned here, and it took about ten hours to sit on the plane back and forth, and he knew that he could save some trouble if he stayed here without leaving at that time.
But that's why he doesn't like to fly, and he complains in his heart.
On February 14th, when EXO was preparing for the stage in Xia Kingdom, SM and JYP announced at the same time: EXO's member Yuan, and Missa's member Suzy, will form a temporary group Yuan&Suzy, and the collaborative single "Some" will be released on February 21, and will be released on February 2 in "M! C" shows the warm-up of the first stage.
The collaborative single "Some" was written, arranged, and produced by Yuan, with Park Jin-young as the producer, and the song expresses the tormented psychology and ambiguous feelings of boys and girls before they actually start dating.
The two companies also released a lot of materials, including some internal gossip and tidbits, promotional posters shot by Ji Jingyuan and Pei Xiuzhi together, and so on.
As soon as the news came out, it immediately caused a heated discussion in the peninsula song circle.
EXO itself is one of the most popular boy groups on the peninsula, and Ji Jingyuan is one of the well-deserved popularity fault tops, coupled with his status as a new trending actor, he can basically get widespread attention when he appears.
And missa's Bae Xiuzhi, although the fans of the group are not as good as the former, they are also a girl group that has won big awards and has good music results, and at the same time, she has a high national degree and has the title of "national first love", and she is a female idol who is widely recognized by the public because of her identity as an actress.
The cooperation between these two people really surprised many people, and just listening to the names of the two people has a feeling of 'king fried'.
In less than an hour, this news was topped by the top of the hot search list of the audio source forums of major websites, several like #yuan&suzy, #exo.yuan, #suzy这些相关词条一下子排在了搜索榜前列, and many of them were specially marked with the logo of 'hot'.
And the comments and likes posted by the two companies on SNS at the same time have also soared, and many fans have expressed their infinite expectations below:
"I said why some time ago someone has been taking photos of Yuan walking into the JYP building, it turns out that there is cooperation between the two sides, hey, the cooperation between these two people is really too longing."
"One is the top 1 male idol in my mind, and the other is also the top three female idols in my place, what kind of fairy combination are these two......"
"Is Yuan writing lyrics and music again? The last one he created was "Roaring Filial Piety", this song pushed EXO to this position today, I don't know if this "Some" will also be as popular as "Roaring Filial Piety", I will stick to their warm-up stage. ”
“…………”
Most people are very optimistic about the combination composed of Ji Jingyuan and Pei Xiuzhi, whether it is appearance, popularity or popularity, they are among the best in idol, and they are also very interested in this song "Some", and they have said that they are waiting for the sound source of this song to come out.
However, some people immediately expressed their dissatisfaction with this combination, and as soon as the news came out, they immediately left messages against it, and many people used fierce words, and they looked very excited at first glance.
Interestingly, a considerable number of these people are fans of Chi Jingyuan, and according to the classification, they should be his girlfriend fans, and they are also the most loyal and crazy ones.
These meals have always regarded Ji Jingyuan as their boyfriend, and mentally do not allow any woman other than relatives to approach Ji Jingyuan, or have intimate movements with him, as long as a female idol violates the precepts, they will immediately attack each other.
Since the EXO fire, this group of somewhat extreme fans has also continued to expand, and has attacked many female artists who have interacted with Ji Kyung-won in front of the camera, including Jung Eun-di, and when he was young, Park Shin Hye was rushed through.
Among them, the first two are okay, Park Shin Hye was scolded by his fans on SNS because of the constant scandals with Ji Kyung-won during filming, and she has lost her normal function at all, and for a while she simply closed the comments because of this.
At that time, Park Shin Hye just smiled and mentioned it to him without saying anything, but Ji Jingyuan felt quite embarrassed about this.
In fact, this situation is very common in the peninsula's male idol fans, as long as it is a popular male idol will have these more extreme girlfriend fans, they can't see their idol and other women intimate contact.
Like the more famous TVXQ, SJ, the combat power of their fans in the past few years can be described as rampant on the peninsula, attacking I don't know how many female idols they have worked with, when Girls' Generation first debuted, because of its intimate behavior with them, it became the target of crazy fire.
After them, it's EXO since last year.
Chi Jingyuan may be because his popularity and conditions are too good, the proportion of his girlfriend's fans is significantly more than that of other members of EXO, these people are not very old, and they are loyal and at the same time they are easily impulsive, and their combat effectiveness is very strong, and they always make some moves that make Chi Jingyuan himself a little embarrassed.
Just like this time, as soon as the news of Yuan&suzy's collaboration came out, especially after their collaboration track was called "Some", which was a song that reflected ambiguity, they immediately rushed JYP and Bae Xiuzhi's SNS.
If it were other members of EXO, the situation might be better, because Bae Suzhi is actually much higher than ordinary idols because of her status as an actress, and ordinary members of EXO are really not as good as her.
However, Chi Jingyuan is naturally different.
The words left by some fans are really hard to hear, all of them are like, 'I don't have any popularity, rubbing and sticking to our oppa, are you really so?' The lead dancer of a backing dance troupe that has long been out of fashion is also worthy of cooperating with our XO, okay? This kind of personal attack.
Their idol is right to do anything, of course these fans will not scold Ji Jingyuan, and they also ignore that this song was actually written by Ji Jingyuan, and only pointed the finger at the two companies of SM.JYP and Bae Xiuzhi.
Of course, Missa's fans are also fighting back and defending Bae Suzy, but their numbers and combat effectiveness are really on the verge of collapse in front of EXO's rice, especially Ji Jingyuan's Yuihan.
In this case, the brokerage company actually doesn't have a good way, after all, fans are the company's financiers, and what can be done is to conduct control and evaluation, as well as some positive guidance.
But fortunately, although the number of exo and Chi Jingyuan's personal fans is huge, these more extreme fans are only part of them, and there are also a large number of rational meals and career meals, and they have spoken out in SNS and Fan Club, barely suppressing this wind a lot.
Although this turmoil has caused a lot of impact, making Ji Jingyuan and Pei Xiuzhi seem a little embarrassed when they get along, but it does play some additional effects in publicity, and the cooperation of Yuan&Suzy has been known to everyone in a short period of time, and the song "Some" has immediately become the center of discussion in major music forums, and was rated as the most anticipated song this month.
After the Lantern Festival stage on the 14th, EXO returned to the peninsula overnight, after which Ji Kyung-won and Bae Su-ji participated in a series of promotional activities and accepted a lot of media interviews.
The picture of the handsome man and the beautiful woman smiling at each other in front of the camera during the interview looks really beautiful, and within a few days, they actually have a batch of CP fans on the Internet.
These CP fans have left messages thinking that the interaction between Chi Jingyuan and Pei Xiuzhi is really sweet, and it feels very good, or just be together.
Of course, without thinking, they were immediately rushed.
While participating in various promotions and rehearsing the stage with Bae Suzhi, Ji Jingyuan was preparing for the return album of EXO, and he was busy again.
With the various resources invested by the two companies and countless news, it finally reached February 20, the day when Yuan&suzy warmed up the first stage.
《m! "I still attach great importance to their first stage this time.,After all, it's two popular idols.,Although it's just a temporary combination of two people.,But the lounge area given is very large.,It's a lot bigger than the lounge of those popular idol groups of eight or nine people.。
Even if Ji Jingyuan and Pei Xiuzhi's respective agents, assistants, and cody were all in the room at this time, they didn't seem crowded at all, on the contrary, they felt a little empty.
At this time, Chi Jingyuan was casually leaning on the place where the deputy hand of the sofa and the back of the chair met, holding the game console in front of him, and his hands kept pressing the buttons.
He has finished styling just now, his hairstyle is dark brown four or six points, and most of his forehead is exposed, which not only looks thinner under the backdrop of bangs, but also highlights a sunny literary style.
The body is a dark mid-neck sweater, and the casual style is highlighted in the handsomeness of the whole person.
Especially at this time, in order to play the game console, he specially put on the black-framed glasses again, and he looked a lot more mature.
At this time, Pei Xiuzhi was touching up her makeup in front of the dresser, and just now she accidentally wiped a little, which made the makeup on the side of her face a little spent.
The agents on both sides are there, because they have been together for many days because of the cooperation, they are more familiar, Ji Jingyuan and Bae Xiuzhi play games and touch up makeup, Park Jae-hyun and the other party's agent sit on the stool in the corner and chat quietly, the atmosphere is quite harmonious.
After a while, there was a sudden knock on the door of the lounge, Ji Jingyuan glanced at it, but he ignored it in the middle of the battle, and Bae Xiuzhi's agent stood up and walked over to open the door.
As soon as the door opened, a flat-headed man with the appearance of an agent walked in with six girls, and as soon as they entered, several girls hurriedly bowed and saluted: "Anihassai yo......"
Chi Jingyuan glanced at it, a little surprised, isn't this the girl group 6mix that JYP is preparing to debut, how did he run to the backstage of the singing show.
Pei's agent saw Chi Jingyuan's confusion, and quickly explained: "Because they are about to make their debut, the company arranged for them to come backstage to feel the atmosphere and warm up, and then sit on the audience during the rehearsal for a while." ”
"We mentioned it to Jing Yuan Xi when we had a meeting before." He also added a special sentence in the end, for fear that Chi Jingyuan would be dissatisfied.
"Did you say that?" Ji Jingyuan looked at Park Jae-hyun, and after seeing the other party nodding and certifying, he knew that he was probably touching the fish at that time and didn't listen carefully.
"I may have forgotten ......"
Chi Jingyuan smiled a little embarrassedly, nodded at the girls and returned the salute: "Anihassai." ”
He didn't pay much attention after saying hello.
After a few people from 6mix came in, they stood aside, and the hands of several members were entangled, and they knew that they were very nervous by looking at their expressions, and at the same time, their eyes kept secretly looking at the environment of the lounge, and Chi Jingyuan, who was leaning on the sofa and playing the game console, was naturally the focus of attention.
"What are you doing standing?"
Chi Jingyuan glanced at them, stretched out his hand and quickly pointed to the separate sofa next to him, and then quickly stretched back to continue the operation, without looking up and said: "Sit casually, they are all people who are about to make their debut, why are they so cramped." “
"Inner ......"
A few people saluted and thanked each other again, and then found a seat to sit upright.
At this time, Bae Xiuzhi, who had finished her makeup, came over and said hello to a few people, she seemed to be quite familiar with one of them named Park Zhixiao, and sat next to her cordially and exchanged a few words, and then looked at Ji Jingyuan:
"Is Jing Yuan Xi really not nervous at all?"
"Hmm."
"It's going to be a rehearsal soon, don't you want to make a little preparation?"
"Hmm."
In the face of Pei Xiuzhi's accosting, Chi Jingyuan didn't raise his head and responded perfunctorily.
Pei Xiuzhi was not annoyed, but glanced at him with a smile, after this period of getting along, she already knew Chi Jingyuan's private personality and hobbies.
Several people from 6mix watched the conversation between their seniors Pei Xiuzhi and Ji Jingyuan with great interest, and although they looked a little nervous after going backstage, everything around them made them very interested.
After a few minutes, Ji Jingyuan's character sighed helplessly after being killed again, and put the game console in his bag.
It feels like I'm a little out of shape today.
"When will you make your debut, is it decided?" He looked at the 6mix people who were chatting quietly over there, and took the initiative to speak.
"It's tentatively April." The rabbit tooth sitting in the middle saluted and replied.
April is also the day of their exo's return, hearing this time, Chi Jingyuan's face was a little strange, he nodded lightly and glanced at the girls who were staring at him, and asked: "Then your responsibilities are all divided, who is the façade?" “
These girls are all wearing makeup, and their appearance doesn't look too prominent, but they don't lag too behind, and they are basically above the level.
"Then who do the seniors think is the façade of us?" It was the rabbit tooth again, she didn't answer directly, but looked at Chi Jingyuan with a grin and asked rhetorically.
The personality is quite lively.
"That must be you." Ji Jingyuan laughed and followed her words.
"Inner ......" she looked very happy, and smiled sweetly with a big tooth.
"By the way, did you just introduce yourself?" Chi Jingyuan asked curiously, and after seeing him several times, he still didn't know the names of these girls, except for a friend's sister Yu Dingyan.
"Mi Ah Nei ......" When they heard this, they quickly stood up and bowed, and then quickly introduced their names.
This rabbit tooth is called Lin Nalian, and Chi Jingyuan knew at a glance that she should be the main member of this girl group.
Ji Jingyuan waved his hand to signal them to sit down, and just when he wanted to say something, there was a knock on the door of the lounge again, and after opening the door, two male idols with MC scripts walked in, followed by VJ.
Ji Kyung-won knows them and is two members of JYP's newly debuted boy group GOT7, ** and Jin-young.
After saying hello, they explained that they were here for an interview.
"Interviews? Are you MC? What about Kim Woo-bin. ”
Ji Jingyuan blinked and was a little puzzled, he had the impression that "M! C has always been Kim Woo Bin, and he is ready to talk to the other party later.
"Kim Woo Bin Xi got off after the last issue, we are the special MC of this issue, and the new host will officially appear in the next issue."
**Quickly explained.
"That's ......" Chi Jingyuan nodded, he glanced around, and suddenly felt a little weird: "Why do I feel surrounded by you JYP people?" ”
"Haha......" several people laughed.
After the interview, it didn't take long for them to rehearse, and several girls from 6mix also said goodbye and left the lounge to run around the audience, looking like supportive fans.
There is no dance in the song "Some", and the stage is very simple, that is, some warm backgrounds are arranged, a few stools and small sofas are placed in the middle, Ji Jingyuan and Pei Xiuzhi each sit on their own stools and sing, as the song progresses, their distance is slowly approaching, and when it comes to the last paragraph, they will sit on the same sofa, look at each other and then end.
This song is mainly won by the melodious melody and the delicate feeling in the vocal music.
There is nothing to say in the rehearsal, he and Pei Xiuzhi have been practicing in JYP for several days in the past few days, this kind of stage with no difficulty generally does not have any problems, and it seems that many people are very interested in the song "Some", when Ji Jingyuan and the two rehearsals, in addition to the 6mix sitting below, there are many other artists who are watching around.
As soon as the prelude to the song sounded, many people's eyes lit up.
After the rehearsal, Ji Jingyuan did not go back to the lounge directly, but stood next to Pei Xiuzhi, chatting and watching for a while, and soon he found that today's "M!C" has a few acquaintances.
This warm-up stage they met BTS, BTS returned with a mini second album a few days ago on February 12, and I heard that the response was quite good.
Ji Jingyuan watched the rehearsal stage of their title song "Man", and felt that this song was indeed not bad, and the choreography was also very distinctive, quite handsome, if there was no accident, the career of this group should go further.
In addition to BTS, the rehearsal that left the deepest impression on Ji Kyung-won was a stage called "Marionette" performed by a girl group called Stellar.
The reason why I am so impressed is because this four-member girl group is wearing a cheongsam and black silk, and the movements on the stage in a sultry outfit are too bold.
The choreography can't be said to be sexy anymore, it's completely just a rubbing, full of all kinds of suggestive movements, and the junior brother, who is a little weaker, probably can't stand it when he sees it.
Ji Jingyuan hasn't paid much attention to it these days, and later asked Park Jae-hyun to find out that this Stellar also returned on February 12, and the results were actually not bad, and the MV of the title song of the same name "Marionette" immediately appeared on the real-time search list of the three major portals of the peninsula after it was released, which caused a great impact.
As for whether it is a good or bad influence, it is a matter of opinion.
Finally, he found one of the most interesting things.
That is the cooperation between him and Pei Xiuzhi, and he met Li Xuanmei's solo again, and the other party announced his return on the 17th with a new single "Full Moon", and the whole singing period collided with Yuan&suzy.
The last time Li Xuanmei made her solo debut, she hit EXO "Roaring Filial Piety", which led to the fact that the solo song was obviously very good and the response was also very good.
Unexpectedly, she bumped into Chi Jingyuan's "Some" again this year, and they were really fated enough.
I don't know if she can taste her wish this time and get a trophy in the singing show......
