Chapter 65: Take it apart and take a look

The jump was interrupted again before it could be finished, and the PD didn't seem to be very happy with their performance, and the EXO group was shouted to the front of the monitor by him, looking at the footage that had just been recorded.

"Jing Yuan's little action is really ......"

"It's really flirtatious, the fans must like it, it feels like a good killing part."

"That's it...... Isn't it a little too riotous. ”

Seeing the licking of the corners of Chi Jingyuan's mouth after making the change just now, several members' eyes lit up, and after looking at it twice, they smiled narrowly, and then nodded and praised.

Even though it hasn't been rendered in post, as far as the shot just now is concerned, they all look very good-looking and sultry, not to mention the fans who like Chi Kyung-won themselves.

"PD said, the expression needs to be put some, and the style of this song is indeed like this." In fact, it's a little awkward to look at himself posing in the monitor, but Ji Jingyuan also thinks it's good after seeing the effect, judging from the camera, his blue hair and the light pink suit and white shirt in the MV shooting clothes are still quite compatible, not as ordinary as he thought before.

Hearing some members questioning, he shrugged his shoulders and replied.

"Jingyuan's impromptu wink is very good, not only directly produces a good kill part, but also mobilizes the mood and atmosphere at the beginning, and the introduction is half done."

"The style of this song MV is like this, that is, the expression like Jing Yuan should be a little exaggerated, and the expressiveness should be shown, whether it is a smile, or wink or some small expressions, even if it is a little harder, it's OK, as long as it's not too much."

The PD talked to them about what to pay attention to, and when he saw that the members were all nodding, he clapped his hands: "Go ahead." ”

"Inside, got it."

Everyone answered, returned to the set and stood in front of the set, and waited until the music started again.

It's just that maybe the style of the MV of the song "Poem of Drops" is really not very easy to control, and it is very different from EXO's usual cool and handsome boyfriend style, that is, he is already very proficient in dancing and moving, but there are still a lot of problems in expression and movement.

Especially the first part at the beginning, Bian Boxian, who was responsible for the introduction.

His part is the first two sentences of the opening, and after the close-up of Chi Jingyuan's turn, it is his C position, which is the opening introduction of a song, a very important part.

But I couldn't find the feeling after shooting it two or three times, no matter how I looked at the expression, I felt a little rigid, and the overall style tone, and even the pink hair didn't match very well, whether it was PD, or they were a little dissatisfied after seeing it.

"What's going on?"

The time itself is a little tight.,It's so unsmooth when I started filming, and the atmosphere that was full of enthusiasm just now became a little impatient.,After PD said to take a short break for two minutes to find a feeling.,The members got together.,Someone muttered.。

was criticized by PD just now, and Bian Boxian pinched his waist and stood there unhappy and a little anxious thinking of a solution.

"Brother, aren't you just the same as when you recorded?" In fact, Chi Jingyuan thinks that there is nothing complicated, it is nothing more than a matter of expressiveness and method.

"Huh? Same as when recording? Bian Boxian was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and turned his head in surprise.

"Recording? Aha......"

When the members next to them heard it, they all laughed when they recalled the scene at that time.

……

At the end of April, SM's recording studio, EXO, and Sun Shengwan, who came specifically to do feat, were all working in earnest.

"Brother, you can't do this, you've already recorded it so many times......"

Standing outside the soundproof room wearing headphones, Ji Jingyuan, one of the main producers of this song, shook his head after listening to Bian Boxian's recording just now, frowning and a little dissatisfied: "Let's not mention the importance of this song, the introduction of the opening is very critical, what we need is to directly pull the listeners into the atmosphere of the whole song as soon as we open our voices, and the previous recordings are too ordinary." ”

"The opening few words are definitely very catchy, and there must be no problem with my brother's voice and singing skills, but there is no such sultry feeling, which is very meaningless."

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

Facing Chi Jingyuan, who was the producer at this time, Bian Boxian did not refute but nodded seriously, but he had tried many times, and he was always unable to find that feeling, and he was actually quite annoyed.

And the first sentence of this opening is a killing part specially assigned to him, these two singing sections need to be slightly thinner in voice and more sultry in tone, EXO Nine people actually tried it at the beginning, or Bian Boxian is the most suitable, so this difficult task was handed over to him.

It's just that now it's stuck in a bottleneck.

Seeing that the atmosphere was a little dignified, on the stool next to him, Sun Shengwan, who was holding the music score, was sitting upright, the angle between his shoulders and knees formed a standard ninety degrees, which seemed very serious, and he raised the music score slightly up to cover his face slightly, for fear of being criticized by such a serious Chi Jingyuan.

She was very happy when she received this case, and her own semi-newcomer personal itinerary is very small, and it is already a very happy thing to be able to receive a single job, and it is also the title song of the popular brother group EXO, although it is actually very small and only two or three sentences, but as long as the attention brought by the disclosure of the sound source is definitely not low, if this song is popular, the impact will be greater.

At that time, knowing that when Sun Shengwan received this case, Jiang Shiqi was still envious for a while, every time Sun Shengwan practiced in a low voice, he could always feel that the eyes of this dear were drifting to this side, especially when he happened to hear that the agent said that he was the producer Chi Jingyuan selected her by name.

It's just that I was quite excited at the beginning, and I practiced very seriously, but I didn't expect that after I really entered the work state, Ji Jingyuan, who was in charge of the recording work as a producer, would be so serious, and every move had a breathtaking feeling, and from time to time I would say two words of complaining that made people hide their faces and be ashamed.

Sun Shengwan's recording work is also not smooth, Chi Jingyuan was not satisfied with the recording several times just now, it is estimated that if it weren't for the sake of whether she was a girl or a good parent, let her go to the side to find a feeling, and she would have opened it directly.

She secretly looked at Chi Jingyuan, who was frowning, in addition to being a little scared, in fact, she thought it was more interesting, it was the first time he had seen this friend like this.

I don't know what kind of expression Jiang Shiqi or Bae Joo-hyun will have when they see it.

"Soft but not soft, sweet but not greasy, in fact, to put it bluntly, the voice should be a little sassy......"

After saying a few words, Chi Jingyuan also sighed after seeing Bian Boxian's expression, thought about it and simply said into the soundproof room through the microphone: "In this way, brother, you can directly imagine Ling as a woman, you are now a female idol, and sing this beginning with the identity of the anti-string." ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

Bian Boxian's expression was a little awkward, as if he felt a little disgusting, although he was often more open and a little angry on the stage, but he was actually quite a man.

He opened his mouth to refute but didn't say it, and after brewing for a while at Ji Jingyuan's request, he began to try to imagine himself as a female idol......

"Hahaha......" Seeing Bian Boxian's somewhat greasy and immersed expression in the soundproof room, the EXO members and Sun Shengwan next to him couldn't help laughing.

……

"Reverse again?"

In the MV shooting venue, Bian Boxian crooked his mouth and looked unwilling, and finally asked helplessly.

"Signal, it works so well when recording anyway." Ji Jingyuan nodded and said with a smile, and Park Chanyeol next to him also hurriedly waved his hand together, with a pouting expression and asked him to give it a try, don't be tough.

"Okay."

This method seems to be really useful.,Soon Bian Boxian's whole person entered the state and changed.,After the style change, the expressiveness has increased greatly.,The PD who watched it couldn't help but clap their hands and encourage it to say that it was very OK.,The part that was stuck for a long time just now passed directly after a while.。

Seeing Bian Boxian's pretentious and contrived dancing in front of him, Ji Jingyuan worked hard to manage his expression, but it was hard to hide his smile.

I really didn't expect the effect to be so good.

……

After missing the next two days of singing on the next single album "L", which is the most important and the final one, there was a funny scene in "Music Center" on the 9th, where the two alternate EXO and bigbang did not come to the scene to sing, did not perform or participate in the awards, and finally the MC on the stage was full of people, but the sides were empty, which made people look a little sad and want to laugh.

The program team must be a little unhappy in their hearts, but after all, it is not "the show", out of principles and rules, after some competition, one was awarded to EXO, and EXO also got the third trophy of this return.

However, before the elice were excited, BIGBANG soon made a breakthrough, they participated in the recording of "Popular Songs" on the 10th and won the first trophy at the same time.

So let's . P perked up all of a sudden, and there were a lot fewer people advocating the 'uselessness theory', and fans regained their spirits and began to support their own Oba, hoping to surpass EXO on the one.

According to the schedule, EXO and bigbang are busy with their own concert tours, and there are very few songs to play, bigbnag will have one or two performances next week, and EXO does not even estimate one, so it is difficult to find a chance to collide head-on.

And the words of one person are now three to one, it seems that EXO has an advantage, but the form is not stable, because bigbang's music source is really good, and the listener volume of "loser" is simply terrifying, and the number one sound source is not down, although these people who listen to the song do not buy their album at all.

And "Love Me Right" has fallen behind,

But in the case that neither of them is very present to play songs, the sound source is really good, it is really very advantageous,

After two days of staying up late and working overtime, the MV work was almost over, and after a little rest, the EXO team came to the Seoul Olympic Gymnastics Stadium on May 11 to start the final step and field rehearsal before the concert.

Starting a tour is a very important way for artists and even companies to increase their income and popularity, and even the most important thing, all the debuting artists on the peninsula idol use various methods to increase their popularity, and the final goal will return to the tour, which is the most profitable thing.

Last year's EXO's first tour was a huge success, with all the sessions held in all countries and cities being as low as 10,000 people, and without exception, all tickets were sold out and there were almost no empty seats, even during the turbulent months when members left the group.

It can be said that there are only venues that are not enough, and there are no tickets that cannot be sold.

The overall performance effect is also OK, although it is not top-notch, but it can still be said that the audience is worth the ticket price, the company makes a lot of money and is satisfied, and has invested more resources for this year's second tour, manpower and material resources have been completed, in order to show better results, for better stage and lighting, and cooperate with well-known concert teams in Europe and the United States, and re-plan in many aspects.

For example, in terms of stage, although the Seoul stadium of the first and second tours was in a gymnastics arena, the stage structure of the two tours was completely different.

Last year, it was just a simple main stage to extend out a few aisles to link the sub-stage, which looked good at the time but is now a little simpler, this time the second tour of Seoul is a 55mX25m super large main stage linked to as many as eight sub-stages, 12mX8m huge main screen, and 20mX9m side LEDs on both sides, a total of six screens form a gorgeous stage design, around the surroundings, all aspects constitute the stage system this time.

Just looking at it is much more fashionable and professional than last year, and at the same time there are some special, brand new installations......

"If nothing else, this screen is really big." Chi Jingyuan stood on the stage, turned around and looked at the huge main screen behind him, the surface of the black screen looked extremely deep, as if it was a big mouth ready to devour people after opening it, standing here and looking at it actually had a feeling of insignificance.

With such a large screen, it is estimated that even the audience in the grandstand on the top of the mountain should be able to see it more clearly.

"And this lifting platform, star-shaped, stepped, jumping, there are so many ...... patterns"

Du Junxiu stepped on the floor under his feet, they just sat on this lifting platform, this brand new facility, a five-pointed star-shaped stepped lifting platform in the center of the main stage, with the lighting looks very gorgeous, these are not available during the first tour last year.

This second tour also has links and songs that set off the atmosphere like a DJ night show, and I just tried the lighting, and it looks really good.

"This ......"

After a while, they were called over by the on-site staff and went to a wider walkway in the middle of the field.

Ji Jingyuan looked at the white open-top bus in front of him, which was decorated with various decorations and painted with the EXO logo. This is also a new addition to the concert, in order to get close to the fans and interact with them, there is a special link to sit on a mobile car and go around the venue.

In the meantime, listen to the introduction of STFF:

"This is the mobile car used in this performance, and when you get to that link, you stand on the roof and interact with the fans, and the car drives very slowly, so you don't have to worry about standing unsteadily, and there are guardrails in the way...... Be careful not to be dragged down, though. ”

"Wait for the driver to go up, let's try it first."

"Okay."

…………

"Why did you eat so fast without anyone urging you? If you see it, your fans will really lose your fans. ”

Hearing a surprised voice from the other side, Ji Jingyuan raised his head and glanced helplessly at the sister Kim Taeyeon who was sitting opposite, lowered his head and continued to eat: "At that time, it was because I was hungry, I haven't eaten since noon, why don't you try it?" ”

Today I have been rehearsing the concert all day, and there are a lot of bells and whistles in this tour, just the position of the lifting platform makes people remember that it is a bit big, and the workload is quite heavy.

At nine or ten o'clock in the evening, it was over, and he could take a rest, and after returning to the company for a meeting, the other members went to eat together, and because he received a call from Kim Taeyeon's sister about him in the afternoon, Ji Jingyuan hurriedly called her out when he was free.

Not in a hurry to see her, but in a hurry to eat.

"And I'll have to go to the venue for a while to rehearse later, and I guess I'll be busy until the early hours of the morning."

didn't treat Kim Taeyeon as an outsider, Ji Kyung-won didn't care too much about the image, and added a little vaguely while chewing something in his mouth.

"Poof......

Kim Taeyeon couldn't help laughing, and nodded in understanding when she saw his busy and tired appearance, picked up the drink next to her with an expression of a passerby, dipped it in her mouth and tasted it: "Indeed, it's really tiring to hold a concert, and we were like this at that time, especially the first few days before the first show, when we were the most tired, and we had to rehearse late every day." ”

She smacked her lips and enjoyed it, and she looked as if she was tasting a glass of expensive high-quality wine.

However, it's actually a glass of orange juice.

"Why did I choose such a restaurant, I couldn't even find a place to park, I searched for a long time to find a parking space in a nearby parking lot."

Eating in a bit of a hurry, Ji Kyung-won paused and drank some drinks, while remembering something and complaining to Taeyeon.

The restaurant chosen by Kim Tae-yeon is not far from SM Company, just in Cheongdam-dong, but it may be a bit of a planning problem, there are few parking spaces around, and the few parking spaces are full, and Ji Jingyuan went around to find a place to park outside the two lanes, which is really troublesome.

"Because I happened to be nearby when you called me, I heard you say that I didn't have much time and found one next to it, I have been to this shop with my friends before, and it tastes good...... It's just not good to park."

Kim Taeyeon winked innocently, indicating that she was completely irresponsible.

Chi Jingyuan pursed his lips, too lazy to ignore her and continue to eat, until he felt a feeling of fullness coming, so that the hunger that had been lingering between him disappeared, he exhaled very much and raised his eyes to look over: "By the way, Nuna, what are you looking for me?" ”

"Cut, and complain about me."

Glancing at him unhappily, Kim Taeyeon snorted lightly, then changed her tone, picked up a packaged box placed next to her and handed it over: "Two things, the first is to give you a gift, you are not about to celebrate your birthday, and that day happened to be your first concert, then I estimate that you must have an appointment that night, so I will simply calculate it for you in advance." ”

"Taeyeon Nuna Kangsanmida!" Chi Jingyuan put down his chopsticks, squinted and smiled, and solemnly used honorifics to provoke a glance from the other party's teeth, but he looked at it behind the box, but his mouth was arguing: "Nu is so sure I have an appointment after the concert?" ”

"Nonsense, idol couples on their birthdays, as long as they are free, they are 100% going on a date." At the mention of this, Taeyeon waved her hand like a senior, and then looked at it with disdain: "Not to mention people like you, I guess there is more than one date." ”

"How is it possible, Nuna, you really misunderstood me......"

You're really experienced.

At the same time, Ji Jingyuan retorted, but after thinking about it for a while, he stopped the topic.

"Take it apart and take a look."

Seeing the other party's expectant expression, Chi Jingyuan also obediently unpacked the package, and when he opened it, the corners of his mouth couldn't help twitching.

A zombie baby's doll, not as big as 20 centimeters, with a big head and a short body, is quite delicate, and the broken and abstract grinning grinning of the face is scary, looking both terrifying and a little cute.

"If you pinch its belly, it will still bark." Kim Tae-yeon added with a grin.

Ji Jingyuan pursed his mouth and pinched the zombie baby's belly, and a hoarse and ugly 'wow' immediately shouted out of its mouth, but it didn't sound scary at all, a little silly.

"Giggle......" Ji Jingyuan didn't even speak, Kim Taeyeon was the first to laugh, playing with his eyes like a fox, and he was very satisfied with the gift he chose: "How about it, it's not bad, haha, I know you like this style of thing, there was originally a faceless ghost doll at that time that did it very well, but it just can't be called, I chose this ...... after thinking about it for a long time"

What I like are PokΓ©mon and robot cats......

Hearing this, Ji Jingyuan first refuted in his heart, and then lowered his head to look at the ugly zombie baby in his hand, and couldn't help laughing, picked it up and pointed it at Kim Taeyeon, pinched it hard, and the ugly 'wow' sound sounded again, and the two of them looked at each other and laughed.

Chi Jingyuan grinned and looked at the doll for a moment, raised his head and blinked: "Thank you, I like it a lot." ”

It's not a precious thing, but it's fun.

"If you like it, remember to invite me to dinner later,"

Obviously satisfied with this gift, Taeyeon nodded reservedly, then picked up the bag next to him, unzipped it and flipped through it, took out a small notebook, and handed it over after casually flipping through a few pages in his hand: "The second thing, this is for you." ”

Seeing Chi Jingyuan take the book and open it curiously, she also took the opportunity to explain: "Isn't my solo thing already decided, and now the company has begun to select songs in advance, so it is said that it is to choose one song from the music library, or buy it from the outside world, or invite musicians to create it, probably these channels." ”

"I've been listening to some of the songs in the library slowly, but I haven't liked them too much until now, and the first time I solo, I still prefer the latter, after all, it's a song that shows me...... Didn't the company ask Jingyuan for you to try it before, so I wrote some suggestions on style and creation. ”

Kim Tae-yeon's solo matter has been decided at a meeting some time ago, and after the success of EXO's return this time, the company has also decided to let Ji Kyung-won be the chief producer after discussion, and of course the company will send someone to assist.

However, it is estimated that it will be nearly half a year after the song is released.,It's still in the stage of selecting songs in advance.,The last time I had a meeting, the planning department asked Ji Kyung-won if he was interested in trying to compose his own music on this theme.,Ji Kyung-won thought about it and said OK.,You can try it.,But I don't know if I can satisfy the company and Taeyeon.。

Unexpectedly, Taeyeon didn't have much hope for the company's Quku, but she really trusted him, and it seemed that the treasure had been pressed on Ji Kyung-won's body.

As the first solo member of Girls' Generation, or a senior, although Kim Taeyeon is not a producer on this album, she actually has a very big voice, and she can express her own opinions on song selection, costumes, style, etc., and the company and Ji Kyung-won are also willing to let her participate, which is both a training and a gimmick.

Since she hopes that Chi Jingyuan will come to a self-composed song that suits her heart, she also hopes to give some suggestions of her own.

"Nuna, I know, I'll take a closer look."

Chi Jingyuan opened it and looked at a page or two, and after seeing the obvious handwritten font, he felt the solemnity of the other party, and he also nodded seriously and said that he would definitely refer to it, and then put the notebook into his shoulder bag.

After talking about the matter, thinking of the black and pressed handwriting, Chi Jingyuan couldn't help but smack his lips and made a joke:

"But Nuna, you're really professional and caring, I remember that my young predecessors aren't preparing to return now, aren't you busy every day?"

"Of course I'm busy, I'm busy, and I'm going to shoot the MV overseas in a few days."

Feeling questioned, Kim Taeyeon immediately began to explain: "But there is always free time, this is my Kim Taeyeon's first time solo, of course, I can't pay too much attention to it." Words from the team...... It won't be delayed, and there's nothing I need over there. ”

She said as she said the meaning of Chi Jingyuan's yin and yang weirdness, and her eyes widened: "Ah, are you sarcastic about me?" Out of Guray? ”

"How can there be, how is it possible."

Chi Jingyuan waved his hand with a smile, indicating that he didn't mean that at all, but he was smiling secretly in his heart.

Sure enough, as soon as there is a solo, the priority of the combination will be slightly lowered.

While chatting and eating, soon Chi Jingyuan was full of wine and food, and after looking at the time, the two put on their disguises and walked out of the restaurant.

"So Nuna, your car is parked so far away?"

"Of course, do you think you're the only one who finds it troublesome?"

When he walked out of the door and asked, it turned out that Kim Taeyeon had not found a parking space before, and he was also parking several roads away, looking at the car that was walking in the alleyway with him and preparing to drive, the little short-legged snorting Kim Taeyeon, Ji Kyung-won couldn't help laughing directly.

"By the way, Pani and I will go to see your concert the day after tomorrow, Sunny doesn't know if he will go or not."

"OK, wow, I got nervous when I heard that Nuna was coming...... Need I give you a couple of front-row tickets? ”

"Still with you? Gross, it's nice to say, if you really had a heart, wouldn't you have sent it a long time ago? Forget it, we will find the internal tickets taken by the agent, and those tickets of yours will still be given to those girlfriends. ”

"Forehead ......"

Chi Jingyuan remembered the few tickets he had only given out in the past two days, and he couldn't help but have a strange feeling in his heart.

Why do you add 'we'?

And just as the two were talking and laughing, suddenly a cry came into their ears from not far away, which was extremely harsh in the deserted alleyway where it was late and no one passed, which immediately attracted the attention of the two.
