Chapter 62: Wasted
As the MC directs, the camera cuts to the score, and the two groups standing in the first row of the stage also look at the monitor placed at the front of the stage.
"First of all, the sales score, EXO 3805 vs BIGBANG 5000."
"Record sales score, exo 1000 vs bigbang 324."
ãmīŧ The score is based on different performance categories, and the combination with the highest data at the moment directly gets a full score, and then the score is determined by the proportion of the opponent in him.
"Audience Preference EXO 750 vs Bigbang 841."
"Social Media Score EXO 1000 vs Bigbang 840."
"M broadcasts ...... After adding the final calculation of the score of the live SMS vote, "LHT" exo 988 9669. â
"The one who is glorious today is...... EXO, Rough Camida! â
The gushing silver ribbon fell from the ceiling like rain, and Ellie, who had been waiting for it for a long time, immediately erupted into a loud cheer, as if it was about to tear the ceiling and eardrums.
There were still many people in the audience who immediately had indignant looks on their faces, and their previous enthusiasm disappeared in an instant, and they sat on the stool all of a sudden, looking at MC and EXO on the stage unhappily.
The agent has been reminded before, and of course the expression management has been familiar with it for so long since his debut, even if he is very happy in his heart, the nine people of EXO still smiled and waved lightly to celebrate, with sincerity and gratitude in their smiles.
And Ji Jingyuan glanced at the bigbang without passing his gaze, of course, these five seniors will not show timidity, smiling and clapping to show congratulations and encouragement, several of them look very normal, such as Quan Zhilong and Sun still lightly nodded their heads as if they were echoing the rhythm of applause, and Li Shengli smiled even more, and waved to the fans below, as if he didn't feel anything wrong at all.
No one loses in this aspect of expression management, both sides are harmonious, you like me and congratulate him, it seems that the competition between the group and the company, as well as the strong contradictions between the fans, do not exist at all.
Only Choi Seung-hyun was slightly conspicuous, he slowly clapped his hands twice and then stopped, his hands crossed in front of him, his eyes were parallel and straight, and he didn't look in the direction of EXO at all.
Seeing this brother's appearance, Chi Jingyuan smiled in his heart, and glanced at the direction of Kim Jixiu's YG trainees he saw just now, wanting to see what these girls would look like when they saw the defeat of their seniors in the same company.
Seeing that the others were okay, their expressions were normal and they applauded lightly, and after noticing Ji Jingyuan's gaze, Kim Jisoo also blinked.
But there is a round face grinning very happily, not much worse than the Ellie next to her, it looks like she is from SM, which makes Chi Jingyuan feel very interesting after seeing it.
I don't know if the people who were bigbanged, especially Choi Seung-hyun, would wear small shoes for this trainee when they saw it......
Jin Junmian took the trophy, didn't say much in his acceptance speech, chatted a few words of thanks, and everything seemed very ordinary.
When everyone else was saluted and everyone else was gone, the members of EXO slowly began to laugh on the encore stage, and the Ellie who were cheering loudly below all cheered together, stretched out their arms and waved to the fans, and then lined up in a pile, and began the relay dance under the excited eyes of Ellie and the audience.
After the encore, they went backstage to wait to thank the staff, and a group of idols stood on both sides of the corridor and were crowded, and BIGBANG seemed to have picked a position a little farther away, several meters away from the EXO who had just entered.
However, after seeing EXO go down, Li Shengli ran over, nodded with a smile and said hello, and then hugged Kim Junmian and Park Chanyeol, and said hello with half-squinted eyes: "Eh, in fact, I expected it before, your album sold so well, congratulations ......"
Judging by his movements and expressions, Li Shengli and Park Chanyeol should still be quite familiar in private, and looking at him, it seems that he really doesn't care much about one or the other, and he doesn't worry about the mood of the members of the same team.
"Don't say that, brother."
Jin Junmian seemed to be a little embarrassed by his enthusiasm, and reached out to put it on the arm on his shoulder, which seemed to want to move down, but he stopped a little hesitantly just now, and then squeezed out a little smile: "It's all luck." â
"Don't be so modest......" Li Shengli waved his hand with a smile on his face, and after chatting for a few words, he said hello and then looked in the direction of Chi Jingyuan who came first, and his smile seemed to be a little more sincere:
"By the way, Jingyuan, next time I have a chance to hang out together......"
After the club incident last year, Li Shengli was not affected, and he didn't resent Chi Jingyuan for cleaning up his friend very badly, but it was normal as if it hadn't happened, but he was obviously a little more eager than before.
I once exchanged contact information when I met in the background, and after that day, Li Shengli sent several invitations to pull Chi Jingyuan to hang out together, saying anything about introducing friends or female idols in the circle or something, but he politely declined.
Although Chi Jingyuan doesn't have a good impression of this brother because of the fact that he pulls trainees to accompany him, his senses are not too negative, after all, there are actually a lot of such things in the circle, and there are too many to count. And although there was a conflict that day, Li Shengli gave him the feeling that he had been in the circle all night, his emotional intelligence was quite high, he was very enthusiastic and very good at things, even if he was disgusted, but he was not particularly annoying.
But Ji Jingyuan saw the idea of making friends with him, and he was not interested in what he said, and he didn't bother to know those friends.
At the same time, I just don't know why, this brother doesn't look like an idol anymore.
In the face of Li Shengli's kind invitation, Chi Jingyuan squinted and nodded:
"There's a chance."
...........................
"Assi ......"
As soon as he returned to the lounge, Choi Seung-hyun, who had been holding back for a long time, couldn't help but scold fiercely as soon as he sat on the stool, and at the same time slapped the table next to him fiercely, and used a lot of force to make the box that was originally on the table faintly shake a little.
"Assisiba's pups, look at the way they laugh......"
Just pounding the table didn't get angry at all, Choi Seung-hyun's temper came up, and his mouth began to scold in a continuous whisper, although he didn't name him, but anyone could hear his anger at once.
I couldn't even help it when I was on the stage just now, as a senior group, losing to a junior group who has never looked too much at it when the momentum is so loud, it's really unbearable.
From just now to now, he only feels that whether it is EXO, other MCs, or even other artists and guests, the eyes look at them strangely, as if they have some special meaning.
The sudden scolding and muffled sound made the people around him frightened, and directly made the atmosphere in the lounge tense, and the assistants who were originally waiting in the room saw him like this, and looked at each other but didn't say anything, but they all looked very used to it.
After so many years of BIGBANG's debut, it's no longer the time to be afraid of assistants or agents, and it's not uncommon to show off your true nature in private.
To be honest, it's not just him who is so annoyed, but others are also quite dissatisfied.
Kwon Zhilong and Sun sat on the sofa and didn't speak, Jiang Dacheng found a stool next to him and tilted his head with his hands on his chest, and Lee Shengli sat on the armrest of the sofa with his legs crossed.
"......" But Cui Shengxuan turned over and over those few words, scolded for a while and felt puzzled, turned his head to look at Li Shengli, and seemed to find a venting point: "Are you familiar with them?" I went over to say hello just now. â
"Why do you really hate people like fans?" The fire burned to himself in front of him, but Li Shengli was not annoyed or panicked at all, glanced at Cui Shengxuan, and shook his head a little helplessly: "Isn't it just one by one, something that I don't care about for a long time since I debuted......"
"It's not a problem with one of the West Eight!"
"Brother is so angry, why didn't you fight with others just now."
"Assi ......"
"Stop arguing." Seeing that one of the two was angry and the other was meaningless, and they looked like they were going to do it, Kwon Zhilong and Sun finally persuaded them out loud, Cui Shengxuan glanced at them, clenched his fists and slammed the table to make a muffled sound, turned his head and stopped talking. Li Shengli pursed his lips and turned back, looking up at the ceiling as if he was thinking about something else.
For a while, the real lounge was silent, only the sound of breathing could be heard, and there was a faint laughter outside the door at this time, and for a while it was just a door but it seemed to be separated by two worlds.
âĻâĻ
And after the show ended, various announcements on the Internet were also issued quickly:
"The men's team competes at the peak, the juniors defeat the seniors EXO first, and defeat BIGBANG head-on to get one place! ã
Since the release of BIGBANG's "M", the two songs "Loser" and "Baebae" have firmly occupied the first and second places in the major music charts, and there is no suspense that they have won the weekly top spot on the melon charts.
In the case of the same good performance of the music source, the single album sold 600,000 copies again, plus the first two single albums "E" and "X", and now the total sales of the three singles have exceeded the jaw-dropping 1.5 million.
The simultaneous return of these two groups has always attracted the attention of fans and passers-by, and in the just-concluded M hit song show "M! The two boy groups BigBang and EXO that you had a great response to in the past finally collided head-on on the stage at the same time to compete for a trophy, and EXO defeated Bigbang head-on by a slight margin to win one, and defeated the seniors who had debuted for many years as juniors, and won the first opportunity in the men's group battle! â
Today's M! The attention is really high, and even the ratings have increased significantly, and the various press releases were sent not long after the show ended, and I don't know how many of them were arranged by SM.
Not to mention the lonely or noisy.p, but in the fan base of Ellie is a jubilant, just a few screenshots of bigbang people at the time of the award ceremony were constantly swiped, frantically celebrating today's positive victory.
"kkkkkkk laughed to death, did you see the expressions of a few people after the announcement of a bigbang, gd and the sun at the same time inadvertently pursed their lips and looked at it really laughed to death, especially the expression of top, almost every inch can be screenshotted as a classic kkkk I intercepted a few particularly interesting ones and sent them up, and let the fans see how interesting it is to see the psychological changes of their own owners later."
Indeed, although the expressions of several people who stole the group were well controlled, it could be seen that they were actually quite unhappy, after all, it was a competition for the face of themselves and their fans. Choi Seung-hyun didn't talk about it, and he was already a little embarrassed, and the micro-expressions of gd and the sun were really exciting, and I laughed directly when I saw it at the time.
"The most obvious thing in BIGBANG is TOP, the movements and expressions are so obvious, I would have been angry with XO if he had put on this kind of show before, but today I just want to laugh after watching it, and I laugh once I see it."
"Now look at the group of idiots who blow their own return to Dafa every day, and the results are explosive and crush XO, how to wash it, and they can't hit us head-on, and they don't have a temper at all when they are beaten by us, and they still have very few sales points in "M! Not to mention tomorrow's "Music Bank". â
"What's the use of blowing every day, you can't grab one, and you will be shattered when you hit it head-on."
Although it's actually just an ordinary songwriter, this head-on collision but a steady win really made all the xo fans who had been torn apart for a long time breathe a big sigh of relief, only feeling refreshed and transparent, just like a tired body taking a sauna, and even Bae Joo-hyun seemed to be a lot more pleasing to the eye.
In just a few hours, BIGBANG, especially the screenshot emojis of TOP, were made by talented Alice to humiliate and make fun of BIGBANG and death, and it became a hot spot in the group and some forums.
Not to mention that after seeing it, they either rose up in adversity and left messages to spray each other, or they couldn't wait to grit their teeth and swallow .p, I don't know what kind of expression Choi Seung-hyun will have when he sees it......
âĻâĻ
"Hey, this shop tastes pretty good."
"Haha, I'll just say it, you don't believe it at first."
"Brother, where do you know so many places to eat every day?"
"Many of them are recommended by others, but some of them are very famous, just look it up on the Internet, and I pay more attention to this aspect of things."
Facing the praise of the members next to him, Jin Junmian swallowed what was in his mouth and smiled reservedly.
This will make it already ten o'clock in the evening, and in addition to Kim Jong-dae and Kim Min-seok, who are going to record the show, several other people in the EXO will have dinner at a time-honored restaurant recommended by Kim Jun-myon.
Nominally, it's hungry for some supper, but in fact, it's to celebrate today's one, after all, this kind of face-staking occasion has won, not only Ellie, but they themselves are also very happy in their hearts.
This shop specializes in ginseng chicken soup and marinated pork trotters, the chicken soup is delicious and mellow, the pig's trotters are soft and glutinous, and Chi Jingyuan feels that the taste is really good.
The special feature of this shop is that there are no stools, you need to sit on the traditional underfloor heating seats, and six or seven people in the private room gather at a large table, eating and chatting in a hot atmosphere, and the atmosphere is very good.
After a while, after eating for a long time, there was a sudden shock in his pocket, and he first drank the soup in the spoon, and then took out his mobile phone and glanced at it.
It was a text message from Minami Mingjing, and it was still a smiling face.
Chi Jingyuan licked the soup from the corner of his mouth with his tongue, and after habitually giving her an expression casually, he put his phone aside and drank chicken soup with a spoon.
It's just that it didn't take long for the mobile phone next to him to shake again, and he picked it up and looked at it in wonder, but it was actually sent by Mingjing Nan.
He was stunned for a moment, this girl actually broke the ring?
"Jing Yuanxi, when you are very stressed, how do you usually vent?"
After clicking on it, seeing the text received, Chi Jingyuan couldn't help but smack his lips.
Because of the relationship that is not very familiar, even if I get the contact information, Mingjing Nan only sends an estrus to say hello the next day, and I have never spoken and chatted very formally.
At this time, the routine was suddenly broken, and there was a sullen smell in the text. I guess it's really depressed, and I can't find a place to talk when I'm under a lot of pressure.
Or maybe it's a chance to talk?
It doesn't matter anymore.
Anyway, because today's one is in a very good mood at this time, and his impression of her is also very good, Chi Jingyuan picked up the bowl and drank the rest of the chicken soup, wiped his mouth with a tissue, and then picked up his mobile phone and replied:
"What's so stressful?"
Shrunk in the quilt, covering his head with a small quilt, he could only see a little light from the outside, Nai Nanzheng stared at the phone screen with some expectation and nervousness, and his feet unconsciously closed and separated, and then closed again.
She was a little worried that the other party would not reply and ignored her, and she was also a little worried that her sudden question would break the previous tacit understanding between the two, causing Chi Jingyuan to be dissatisfied.
But I'm really not in a good mood today, since she was grouped because of this task, she has been under a lot of pressure, for fear that she will not perform well and fall into the poor student group, and she is also worried that only practicing for a year will drag the team back and make others look down, anyway, all kinds of negative emotions have emerged, which makes the two days of practice seem a little depressed.
Even when I was recording during the daytime today, I couldn't control my emotions, because of a random sentence from others, I couldn't help crying directly, and wiped my tears in front of the camera for a long time.
Of course, it's not easy to talk about the emotions of being competitors, even the other two trainees who are also neon line, and others are also under a lot of pressure and are busy preparing for the stage, she doesn't want to cause trouble for them.
At night, I became more and more anxious, lying on the bed and looking at my phone, when I saw the familiar name, a strong impulse surged in my heart, first I sent a smile to test that Chi Jingyuan was not there, and after the other party replied, I mustered up the courage to send another one after a few seconds.
And just when Mingjing Nan was worried, a new message suddenly appeared at the top of the mobile phone screen, and her eyes lit up after seeing it, and she pursed her mouth and quickly began to type.
"Because I was afraid of falling into the minor group and being eliminated, and this task was regrouped, and I was divided into relatives who were not familiar with me before, and there were a lot of problems during the practice, and I was worried about dragging the team back."
Chi Jingyuan didn't seem to mind at all, and quickly replied:
"If it were me, I might play a game or go out for a spin, but to be honest, it's pretty rare for me to feel a lot of pressure......
"Mina Xi, you don't have self-confidence, but in my impression, you should be a very confident person, why do you think so much...... And I remember that you haven't been to two issues in a row, and the winner has been placed in the 'major' group, so you have to worry about elimination, what will the others do......"
The impression left by Mingjing Nan on Chi Jingyuan is like this, although her appearance, temperament and even some habitual small movements make her look a little soft and weak, and she often has the shyness of a little girl, but he feels that this girl is actually quite confident in her heart, and it can be seen from some eyes and momentum that it may be because of a good family, or because of her appearance, she probably knows that she looks very good.
At the same time, he is also very assertive and courageous, at least one female trainee dares to take the initiative to ask him for contact information many times, which is very admirable.
"Is that so? In the past two days of practice, I have always had some problems, and the other members of our team are very strong, so I am always worried that the performance will not be good at that time, what to do if something goes wrong, and the more I think about it, the more boring I become. â
"I think you're okay if you're strong, at least your stage was good when I was a judge."
"Really? But my mood these days is really sensitive, and I can't control my ......"
"It should be a little unfamiliar with the environment and the people around me, I think too much about the rest, if it's me to decide who of you can debut in "Sixteen", I will definitely choose you if nothing else."
"Why? (wink)"
Although the pressure in his heart will not melt away because of just a few words, chatting with Chi Jingyuan made Mingjing Nan feel a little happy, his attention was diverted, and he unconsciously relaxed after not thinking about those troublesome things, and after seeing his words, he asked with some expectation.
It's just that Chi Jingyuan didn't know what happened, but this time the waiting time was a little long, just after she pursed her lips, tossed and turned on the bed, and changed her lying position several times in a row, the screen finally lit up.
"Isn't it a waste to smile so well, if you don't make your debut?"
Seeing this sentence, she froze for a moment, and instantly remembered the scene when she was backstage in "Sixteen", when the picture appeared in front of her, she only felt that her body was soft and a little hot.
But the eyebrows and the corners of the mouth were involuntarily curled.
âĻâĻâĻâĻ
And the reason why it took a long time to recover was because there was also an episode on Chi Jingyuan's side.
Originally, he was happy to eat until half the night, but Jin Junmian suddenly answered the phone, put down the phone after saying a few words, looked at the surrounding members strangely, and said the news he had just learned in some surprise:
"We got into a fight with bigbang fans!"
