"Who?"

Somi seemed to be in a good mood, and when she heard her good friend Sun Caiying say this, she immediately looked very interested.

Although the stage of the small amphitheater where they performed was not as big as the main stage on the other side, there were thousands of people in the audience, and even if it was not actually their performance, it could only be said that they acted as a backup dancer for Park Jin-young, but it was still very exciting to show their dancing and charm on the public stage in front of so many people.

The feeling of standing on the stage and becoming the center of attention, being watched, pursued, cheered and cheered by thousands of people will only know how fascinating it is if you try it, even if you participate in a theatrical performance in an ordinary junior high school or high school, it can make people tremble, let alone this kind of formal stage performance with a large audience.

This is also one of the biggest attractions of the idol profession.

At this time, the faces of the seven members of the Major group all looked red, and it was obvious that although the performance had passed, the afterglow of excitement just now was still on their bodies.

Sun Caiying's face was mysterious, she grinned and squeezed her eyebrows a little exaggeratedly, and after selling it a little, she said reluctantly: "We saw the members of XO!" ”

She has a good relationship with Somi, and she knows that this sister usually pays attention to the boy group, and she likes the popular group of EXO very much, so she must be very interested in mentioning this topic.

Although she also eats bigbang, she even likes the style of bigbang a little more.

“jinjia？ Where is it? When? Sure enough, after hearing this, Somi's eyes lit up, and she grabbed her hand and asked.

And the members of the major group next to her were also attracted to attention, especially Zhou Ziyu, who was originally sitting obediently next to her, she was lowering her head just now, turning her hair with her hands, quietly listening to the chat of the people next to her, and after hearing Sun Caiying's words, her round eyes turned and her eyes glanced over.

"Just outside our theater, around noon, we met five members of EXO here, and it seems that Yuan is taking other people on a tour of the school, isn't he a student of Yonsei University......

"Ahh......h

"During the afternoon break, we also went over there to take a look, wow, you didn't go to the scene and didn't see it, that atmosphere is really, jinjia ......"

Sun Caiying was talking colorfully, at first she was just talking to Somi, but after seeing that several other people were very interested, she became talking to everyone.

"Did you meet XO's seniors at noon?" After listening to a few words, Park Zhixiao whispered to Lin Nalian and Yu Dingyan next to him.

Lin Nalian didn't seem to be very interested, she nodded expressionlessly, and Yu Dingyan responded with a smile. These two people know that Lin Nalian has become a black fan of Chi Jingyuan and EXO because of a certain incident, and often complains and smears black families in front of them in private, the last time the two trending boy groups met head-on, Lin Nalian also supported BigBang because she didn't like Chi Jingyuan, and at the same time clamoured to mobilize them to vote for Bigbang together to defeat Exo, but after losing one miserably, she was depressed for a long time, her mouth was no longer grinning, and her rabbit teeth were no longer showing, so she kept rolling her eyes there.

They are also used to this, but they don't know where this sister has so much hatred.

But the two didn't care, and whispered together: "Well, we talked a few words, and it's in the audience seat of the theater outside......"

The chattering of voices made the whole lounge lively.

Just as male idols and trainees are usually very interested in female idols, they often discuss similar topics when chatting, and they also sort their appearance from time to time, and the same is true for female idols and female trainees, the opposite sex is always the topic of most interest, and to some extent, it can be regarded as a two-way street.

After chatting for a while, Park Jin-young still didn't come back, but under the beckoning of the room manager, more than a dozen girls began to tidy up their things in pairs, and some went to the bathroom by the way, and after everything was ready, they went outside to wait for the gathering and then leave together.

Obviously, Park Jin-young is still very busy as the president, and today's school celebration of his well-known alumni also has a lot of social occasions, and he has no time to come back to take care of his children.

Zhou Ziyu and two neon line girls walked out of the backstage first, standing next to the stage with their bags and waiting for other people, at this time the stage performance here has long ended, the staff and college student volunteers are busy on and off the stage, putting all kinds of audio, lighting and other equipment into storage, it looks very lively for a while.

She didn't know Nan Nakai and Sasha Minato Saki very well, but she stood quietly blowing the evening breeze, looking down at her feet gently rubbing the ground as if thinking about something, while the two neon lines next to her were whispering in Japanese.

"Xiaoying, guess who I saw today?"

"Which artist, right? It's normal to meet so many artists who come to school today to meet them, look at your expression...... It can't be XO, right? Pool View Source? ”

At this moment, two female voices not far from the side faintly attracted the attention of the three people, and their eyes inadvertently turned over, and found that they were two female college students who were cleaning up the venue.

Another ...... who met EXO by chance

Did they really go around the whole school?

In addition to Mingjing Nan, the other two girls secretly muttered in their hearts, but anyway, they were bored at the moment and the others hadn't come out yet, so they made a casual appearance and listened attentively.

“bingo！ It's Chi Jingyuan and XO, I met at this venue at noon, he was taking a few members to visit our school, I happened to be next to it at the time, and I saw it from afar, and then I rushed over and met by chance. ”

There was obvious pride in this female voice, although Mingjing Nan didn't look over there, she really couldn't help but smile lightly after hearing it, and she could tell that it was the Ji Jingyuan fan named Li Meiyan at noon.

"Jinjia, is it really Chi Jingyuan? Wow, I really want to see him, I've heard his classmates say that the real person is very good, but it's a pity that I haven't squatted in their department a few times before, and I ran several times in vain...... But it's actually really too much.,Obviously I'm a student like everyone else, but I don't come to school a few times a year.,Just because it's a general trend idol, the school is too relaxed.,It's quite unfair.。 ”

"It's really a little bit, but I've heard others say that in fact, the school's requirements for Chi Jingyuan are more relaxed at all because of what the general trend is, and our school is not a third-rate artist school like Dongguk University, and the requirements are still quite strict in all aspects, and Ji Jingyuan was still at the beginning of 12 years when he entered the school, and EXO hadn't debuted at that time. Later, in order to make his debut, he took a year off from school, and when he came back to school in 13 years, exo was still in the lake, and it was not popular, so it actually had little to do with the identity of the artist. ”

"So, what's the reason for that?"

"This is also what a senior told me, do you know who sent him to class when he came back to school in 13 years?"

"Who?"

"It's the ...... of the Golden Academy"

Speaking of this, Li Meiyan's voice pretended to be mysteriously obviously lowered, which made the three girls who pretended to look at the other side eavesdropping couldn't help but prick up their ears.

Originally, because it was just an avid fan to express his excitement about meeting his idol, I didn't expect some of the secret things she said about Ji Jingyuan's school to be really interesting, and I wanted to continue listening to this kind of gossip.

is like Zhou Ziyu, who was originally rubbing the ground with his feet boringly with his low head, but now he is rubbing, and he doesn't know when his body moved a few centimeters to that side.

"Really? Did you deliver it in person? I didn't hear it clearly, but when I got to this sentence, the tone was obviously raised, and the look of surprise was revealed.

"Yes, I couldn't believe it at the time, so it's obvious that Chi Jingyuan is not an ordinary person, either his personal relationship is very strong, or his family conditions are very good."

"Hey, an ancient ......"

"So it's such a rich kid, or a top-level idol, it's very good to be able to come to school honestly, and he himself is really amazing, very polite and gives people a very good feeling, and it's also very interesting, I'll show you the TO sign he gave me...... It's really the kind that can make a girl tempted by a glance and a word, and I said how can he be so popular in a school like Yonsei. ”

"It's true that you say that, I heard that although his grades are not very good, he has passed every final assessment and make-up examination, and he has not caused any trouble in the two or three years of entering the school, and now it is really good...... I've heard that some other rich second-generation families are causing trouble, and the teachers don't dare to take care of it......"

“…… It's a pity that I didn't see XO's stage in the afternoon......"

As the two volunteers left with their things, the voices gradually faded away, and the gossip that interested the three of them ended there.

Although there are not many stories heard, it is enough to make a few people taste for a while. Zhou Ziyu couldn't help but glance up at the direction where the two college student volunteers left, and turned back a second later, just bumping into Mingjing Nan, who was making the same action as her.

“……”

She pursed her lips and smiled at Nan Mei, but didn't say anything, and continued to lower her head and rub the ground.

She didn't see that Nai Minami's gaze was slightly complicated, but after the other party glanced at her, he went back and continued to whisper something to Minato Sasha, probably starting to exchange the wonderful story he had just heard.

"Hurry up, I'm dead on the toilet......"

At the same time, Lin Nalian's complaining vocal music came from not far away, and several girls came over from the backstage in turn, either talking or laughing next to the three of them, making this place that seemed a little quiet just now become noisy.

The refreshing evening breeze blew under the moonlight, blowing the long hair of Zhou Ziyu and Mingjing Nan fluttering, tickling on their faces.

They reached out and gently stroked the long hair that covered their faces behind their ears, and after one last glance at Yonsei University around them, they turned to leave with the members and the staff who had come out.

………

In the conference room on the fourth floor of SM's internal company, Chi Jingyuan, who was sitting in his seat, leaned on the back of his chair and fiddled with the mobile phone in his hand.

There is no award ceremony such as a singing show in the performance of the school anniversary, and the performers do not need to wait until the end, and they can leave directly after their own stage.

Exo went to have a meal after finishing his stage, and then returned to the gymnastics arena for a short rehearsal of tomorrow's concert.

After all the activities, although it was still early, because there was a performance tomorrow, the company did not arrange more trips, and disbanded directly to let everyone come back to rest.

It's just that Ji Jingyuan, who was just about to rush back, was stopped by his agent Li Chenghuan, and after explaining a few words, he followed Li Chenghuan to the conference room to prepare for the meeting.

Because the people hadn't arrived at this time, Chi Jingyuan flipped through the information in front of him and took the time to swipe his phone.

Because of his leave today, this issue of "Music Bank" is the first time that he has been hosted by the other party alone since he and Bae Joo-hyun cooperated, and he was watching the messages and comments after the broadcast of "Music Bank" today.

"Irene is so beautiful! It's so cute! is worthy of being a female idol who can be searched on the face of her face."

"Although Irene Yan is very good-looking, it always feels like something is missing when you host alone."

"Ah, why didn't Yuan come this week, the cp who knocked like this once a week can't see it today......"

brushed a few comments, in addition to blowing the rainbow fart of Bae Joo-hyun's appearance, many viewers left messages to express their dissatisfaction with Ji Jingyuan's absence, although it is not very complaining, but it must be a little disappointed.

In less than three episodes of the show, the two have attracted a lot of CP fans through their hosting style and tacit cooperation, and Bae Joo-hyun's popularity is also rising at a speed visible to the naked eye.

There are some people's messages that are the most excessive, and these audiences are not even coming to see the stage, but specifically to watch these two people sprinkling sugar and hosting, and completely watching "Music Bank" as a weekly "We Are Married".

Although I don't know what to say to these audiences, it is a happy thing to be recognized and supported.

After starring in two episodes, Ji Jingyuan felt that this fixed MC case was not wrong.

The heat brought is secondary, mainly because the weekly recording is very relaxing and will make people feel good.

"You're here on our stage today."

When he was scrolling through the web page, he suddenly received a text message, and when he looked at this font, he didn't need to look at the sender Chi Jingyuan to know that it was sent by Zhou Ziyu.

It seems that she must have heard from others about what they happened to encounter today.

I was thinking about how to reply, and I received another message.

"Orientation Sniper" (Smiley)

This one was sent by Mingjing Nan, and the two of them sent text messages one after the other as if they had discussed it.

Seeing this text message from Mingjing Nan made Ji Jingyuan blink, and thought about what she meant by sending a song title.

However, he was not given much time, as the heads and staff of several departments walked into the conference room one by one, and the last person closed the door to indicate that the meeting was about to begin.

"yes, big star."

Chi Jingyuan tapped the screen of his mobile phone quickly, first replied to Zhou Ziyu, and then slid to Mingjingnan's communication page, and after thinking for two seconds, he replied (with a smile).

Then he put the mobile phone that had been muted back in his pocket, took a deep breath and went to work.

The main purpose of this meeting was to announce and discuss Ji Jingyuan's personal advertisements and endorsements in the next period of time.

Since the EXO fire, Chi Jingyuan's popular TOP position has never fallen, and at the same time, because of various reasons, his personal popularity has surpassed the combination of EXO in many aspects to a certain extent, especially in the field of advertising and endorsement, and is favored by major manufacturers, in the past two years, especially last year, he has more endorsements than the entire EXO group,

In the ranking of Peninsula artist income that went viral last year, he personally ranked second with 55 billion won, even if the data is not accurate, but it is enough to bluff. And SM itself knows very well internally that although this data is inaccurate, it is not much.

Because the revenue brought is amazing, the company has also arranged special departments and personnel to be specifically responsible for Chi Jingyuan's personal aspects, including itinerary, endorsement and other things, this time it is to explain the progress of some recent things.

“…… Last year, in 2014, the company received a total of 34 medium and large brand endorsements for Jingyuan in various categories, including 21 in Xia and 13 ......in the peninsula.

"As of May this year, 26 of all contracts have expired or are close to expiration......

“…… After our meticulous communication, 5 of the 26 brands ended their cooperation after the expiration of the contract and hired a new spokesperson, the other 3 stopped operating or no longer invited artists to serve as spokespersons due to manufacturers and companies, and the other 18 brands have the intention to continue to renew the contract, some of which we have already negotiated, and the rest are still in communication......"

This kind of commercial brand endorsement contract is generally not signed very long, the manufacturer brand as Party A, for the spokesperson in various aspects of the data and popularity is still relatively picky, usually a year is more common, and when the contract is about to end, the brand according to the revenue and sales data since this period of time to see how the spokesperson's publicity effect, if appropriate, it will continue to renew.

Of course, there are long-term contracts that are signed for various reasons, but the number is relatively small.

So many of the endorsements that Chi Jingyuan took over last year have expired or are about to expire this year, according to the company's statistics, most brands have a tendency to renew their contracts and are very sincere, and his ability to bring goods should be very satisfactory to the other party.

“…… Among them, there are several more important endorsements that also need to refer to your own opinions, the most important of which is that LG's electronic product endorsement case will expire in a few months, LG has previously conveyed the tendency to renew the contract, we have made a preliminary contact with the other party, and the other party said that he is very satisfied with the effect of your role as a spokesperson in this year, but we need to consider some of Jingyuan's personal views and opinions......"

A room director skillfully introduced the information in his hand, and looked at Chi Jingyuan as he spoke: "Jingyuan, what is your opinion?" ”

“……”

Chi Jingyuan also looked at the information on the table and did not speak.

When he took this endorsement last year, he hesitated for a while between LG and Samsung, but in the end, Samsung was just a mobile phone model, while LG was a full-line electronics, obviously the latter was more sincere, and the endorsement was of a higher grade.

"Although it is only a preliminary contact, but LG's tendency is still relatively obvious, according to the statistics we obtained, last year after you served as the spokesperson, LG's electronic products in the entire Southeast Asia, especially the Xia Kingdom and the peninsula data have increased significantly, of course, we can't get the specific high-end figures, but obviously the other party's tendency to renew the contract is very high, and the sincerity is also very strong, if the negotiation is effective, it should make a lot of concessions in the endorsement fee and all aspects."

Seeing that he didn't make a sound, the head of the room seemed to be a little worried, and spoke again to add something:

"LG's full line of endorsements is the top case in the entire peninsula, and it has a lot of benefits to Jingyuan, both for yourself and XO, so the company's opinion is to renew the contract, and we can't let others snatch it, we have received news that several top actors are very interested in LG's case."

"Well, Director Li, I know."

"Then let's keep talking."

After thinking about it, Chi Jingyuan also nodded, because the cooperation for a year was very pleasant, and the other party also valued him, so he didn't hesitate too much.

And what the other party said is right, this kind of top-level case, many people are worried, and Peninsula artists are very strong in private in terms of competitive endorsements.

"Okay, we'll keep in touch." When Director Li heard this, he sighed, his triangular eyes showed a smile, he took a sip of water and said:

"It's still a few Asiana banks, lotte department stores, and Holiyo ...... on the peninsula."

"In addition, several cases of Xia Guo, such as Tsingtao Beer, Dongfeng Yueda Kia, Chow Tai Fook and several other brands have entered the renegotiation stage......"

Chi Jingyuan was able to become one of the highest-paid artists last year with two years of debut, and a large number of high-quality endorsements are the most important part of it, which also stems from his extremely high popularity and popularity in East Asia, especially in Xia and the peninsula, as well as his excellent image, which has won him the favor of many brands.

“…… That's probably the brand that needs to renegotiate a contract renewal recently. ”

After some introduction and discussion, the renewal of the contract finally came to an end, but Director Li did not mean to stop, after a pause, his expression became a little strange, his eyes were both excited and a little surprised, and he looked at Chi Jingyuan and said solemnly: "There is another very important thing, a top luxury brand from Europe has contacted us, it seems that Jingyuan you ...... There is an intention to cooperate. ”
