This well-known music critic's manuscript was highly praised in the forum, and most of the Ellie was very comfortable with the rainbow fart throughout the article, and they left comments below to like it, and many passers-by didn't think that this comment was very well written after seeing it, because the quality of EXO's album this time is visible to the naked eye.

After all, the quality of the music and albums, as well as the amazing popularity, are here, except for a small number of people who come against the public for gimmicks, most of the musicians, and the music reviews of the audience are very positive.

In addition, many ordinary fans and listeners who simply listen to the song have also expressed their opinions:

"That's great, exo's several returns this year are really amazing, the first "Call Me Baby" is already amazing, I especially like this song, this song is also recognized as the most handsome main song in makeup, it is a song that can compete with "Roaring Filial Piety" for the best dance song, just "CMB" is the main to create an album is already a high level, I didn't expect that every song released in the next few months is scary with high quality, it's really a bit outrageous."

"Indeed, if you look closely, this album is really the main hit, this song configuration is really too extravagant, I listened to the latest one yesterday, which is also an album of three generations of boy groups, the main song can barely be heard, but it is about to be, and the other included songs also feel perfunctory without any highlights.

But this is actually the norm for many small and medium-sized company boy groups nowadays, and for the EXO album, from music, to choreography, to style concept, to expressiveness and appearance makeup, every aspect is really a dimensionality reduction blow, and it feels like it's not at the same level at all. ”

"There is no doubt about God, the quality of xo's regular two really doesn't say, I haven't listened to much of the album of the ancient boy group, but in terms of the songs I've listened to in the past ten years, this album should be the one with the highest comprehensive level of the boy group.

In addition, although BIGBANG has never played EXO, the quality of their albums this year is also very high, I like "Lbangbang" very much, and "Sober", which was released only today, if the quality of the follow-up songs is not high, I will rank them second...... Why do you feel that this year's kpop is so strange, I haven't seen a few popular girl groups in the circle, but the men's group is outrageously strong, and the girl group is prosperous? ”

"It's not that the boy group is outrageous, it's that EXO and Bigbang are outrageous, don't get confused, they're a boy group, but the boy group isn't them."

"I don't really care about these music criticisms, I basically never pay attention to the style and concept of any idol group, I only care about whether the song is good or not, I think this is the most basic, everything else is based on the quality of the song. And this "Exo-L" is really good, every song is very good, and the newly released "If You" is simply my life song...... This album completely refreshed my perception and sense of the boy group, and EXO is really powerful. ”

"Ahhh

”

Seeing this last message from a fan of a boy group who didn't know which one, Ji Jingyuan couldn't help laughing.

Every time I return to sing or have a stage performance, I go to the Internet to read comments and rainbow farts about my songs, grades, appearance, etc., which is also a very characteristic and attractive thing about the idol profession.

If it's all attacks and slander, it's natural to be depressed and want to be depressed.

But if it's all good reviews and boasting about your own comments, you'll naturally be in a very happy mood.

This time, the release of the regular second album belongs to the latter, he has just swiped the webpage for a long time, some music forums and fan clubs have all quietly glanced at it, basically did not see a few bad reviews, many passers-by and listeners who did not pay much attention to and evaluated before have said a few good words.

Among them, in the entire exo, the evaluation of him is the highest, and all kinds of smack-smacking rainbow farts can be seen everywhere, and he himself is generally tired of looking at it, while looking down with a smile.

Because of this feeling, it is really sour.

Today is the 2nd, and the regular second album "EXO-L" has been released for two days, and at the same time that the two types of music and sales lists are dominating the charts, at this time, Ji Jingyuan is sitting in the nanny car with the members, preparing to go to the Lotte Hotel in Mapo District, preparing to participate in the first signing event of the second album.

The car was relatively quiet at this time, only Byun Baek-hyun in the back seat was discussing the game with Park Chanyeol in a whisper, and everyone else was playing with their mobile phones or closing their eyes to recuperate.

I logged in to a music forum with a relatively high number of views, and after glancing at it, I clicked on the comment post posted by the very hot music critic for the second album of XO, and Chi Jingyuan took a general look.

It's still that rainbow fart that doesn't have much nutrition.,After all, the quality of the second series is actually a little more normal and the aesthetics can be seen.,But the sales data he listed is very interesting.,I haven't paid much attention to it before.,Now after seeing it, I also feel that a group accounts for half of the entire sales market.,It's really a little exaggerated.。

However, since 2013, the original reprint of the regular series added up to one million sales and broke the record, and this sign has been obvious, and many people feel a little exaggerated after seeing it, but there are not too many doubts, no wonder.

The emergence of EXO has a very obvious effect on the promotion of the sales of the entire Kpop physical album, with these returns this year, it is foreseeable that the sales market in 2015 will increase a lot compared to last year, and the most benefited in addition to EXO, it is also all the companies and groups in the entire music industry.

Although they may not admit it......

In addition, the concepts of 'top' and 'summit' mentioned by this music critic are actually quite interesting, and Ji Jingyuan can sometimes see it in fan discussions in private.

This concept is actually quite model, and there is actually no specific statement in the peninsula song industry, and there is no official certification, and it can even be said that there is no such thing as 'reaching the top'. The top groups of each era are generally called 'top' groups, and most of the 'summit groups' are exchanges and statements in the fan circle.

Generally speaking, it refers to the most powerful one in each generation of male and female idol groups, which can fully represent the culture and spirit of this generation of kpop groups.

EXO was originally the absolute leader among all three generations of boy groups, but this year, in the head-to-head competition, various data comprehensively surpassed or crushed the previous generation of TOP group BIGBANG, and after the winner and defeat have been divided in the hearts of the vast majority of audiences, some fans have put forward the term 'reaching the top'.

Although this word sounds powerful, it is a pity that there is no substantial benefit, after all, whether there is this title or not, EXO is now the well-deserved number one boy group in Kpop, and the top status is beyond doubt.

In fact, they were already a TOP group last year, but the data of the previous generation TOP with other groups and BIGBANG did not open up or were a little inferior, and a lot of things happened in the second half of the year, which caused the momentum to weaken a lot, and this year they just took these things back again, and at the same time greatly raised a lot of them.

However, for those who don't know about it, it does sound a lot higher, and the Ellies will also seem more comfortable when they brag and battle with others.

"Young don't stuff young ......"

“…… Now? I know. ”

When watching the news, Li Chenghuan, the co-pilot's agent in front, suddenly received a phone call, and after a short communication, he immediately explained to the driver after putting down the mobile phone: "Drive slowly, don't rush to the scene now." ”

The driver didn't ask why, nodded and did it immediately.

"I just received a call from the company, and the lotte square, where we are going to hold the book signing, is now flooded with too many people, causing traffic congestion and complete congestion, and now I can't stand at all."

Lee Seung-hwan turned his head, smiled bitterly at the members who were looking at him curiously, and began to explain: "And because there are too many people, it also increases the safety risk, and the police over there have intervened to start maintaining order, and at the same time, according to the situation at the scene, they are discussing with the company whether to continue to hold the signing meeting." ”

“jinija？ Is it such an exaggeration, how many people came? ”

"If the signing session doesn't take place, can we go back and rest?"

As soon as these words came out, the nanny car, which was a little quiet just now, immediately became active, and several people chattered and discussed.

"I don't know how many people there are, but at least there are tens of thousands of people, you can take a look on the Internet, there should be some Reuters pictures on SNS."

Lee Seung-hwan ignored the few people who were in a hurry to get off work as soon as he heard it, waved his hand and motioned for them to look on the Internet for themselves, and then turned around.

Chi Jingyuan searched for it, and soon saw a lot of SNs and pictures posted by people at the scene, and some self-media also quoted and reposted at a very fast speed.

Click on a few pictures at random, the entire lotte square in the picture has been crowded with endless crowds, there was originally a very empty area in front of the square for some activities, but at this time, the white stone floor has long been unable to see a little gap, at a glance can only see the crowd of people, and dense heads.

Seeing this scene, Chi Jingyuan couldn't help but think of the shots he had seen of the sardines in the ocean, and the two had a similar similarity.

Not only Lotte Square, but also the road at the front of the door, and even on the other side of the road are already full of all kinds of people at this time, and the windows on the second and third floors of some of the ground floor stores on the opposite side have been directly opened, and many people sit on it, looking at the excitement in front of them in amazement.

A few photos give people the feeling: crowded, many, messy.

"So many people?"

"It's too exaggerated, I feel like we won't be able to get in even if we do......"

There were a few exclamations from the side, and apparently everyone else had also seen the Reuters photos from the scene.

Chi Jingyuan looked at the black pressure in the photo, and the crowd was also a little amazed.

Although this scene is not the first time EXO has encountered it, it has also encountered this situation at several book signing sessions at the peak of "Roaring Filial Piety".

And this year, since the release of the first single album in March, EXO has not held a book signing, even if fans have appealed countless times under SM's account, the company is as silent as if they didn't see it, SM has a good grasp of the hunger caused by this appeal.

It lasted until the official release of the second album, and today's event is the first live signing of EXO since its return this year.

The enthusiasm of fans who have long been uncontrollable, and the popularity of EXO at this time has also attracted many passers-by to come to watch, which directly caused this crowded flow of people and traffic congestion, which is even more exaggerated than the previous "Roaring Filial Piety" period.

The number of places in the exo signing meeting is very limited, only in a specific video store to buy a specific album to have a chance to win the lottery ticket, the number is not much, 99% of these are not available, crowded here just to join in the excitement, take a look at the most popular idol.

"Wait a minute, let's see the news over there......" Lee Seung-hwan was also a little helpless about the planned things being disrupted by the things that were sent to each other, and as the nanny car found a place to stop, he sighed and explained.

The wait was more than an hour, which was beyond the original scheduled time of the EXO signing party, and after the disappointment that EXO did not show up at the end of the time, and the police who were present to maintain order and disperse the crowd, the situation at the scene was a little better, although there were still many people, but at least there were not as many safety hazards as just now.

In this case, Chi Jingyuan and they arrived at the scene after receiving the notice, which instantly detonated the atmosphere of the scene and the enthusiasm of the fans.

……

"Anihassaiyo ......"

Chi Jingyuan sat on the signing position, looked at a young girl who looked soft in front of him, smiled and took the initiative to speak.

Although it was nearly an hour late, the fans at the signing site not only did not have any dissatisfaction, but were still enthusiastic and scary, and after arriving at the scene, EXO prepared as quickly as possible and immediately started the event.

First of all, I sincerely apologized to all the fans for being late, ended the chat session, made a few small games, and performed a few small shows, and then officially started the signing that all fans were most looking forward to.

"Hello, Oba!"

This soft, young female fan's voice was a little sandwiched, and after seeing Chi Jingyuan, she immediately grinned, and said very enthusiastically: "Isn't Oba a light-colored cept this time?" ”

"Hmm." Ji Jingyuan took her album and nodded.

She said that this album, Ji Jingyuan's main style and concept is lighter.

"It's really a good match for Oba!" The brilliance of the girl's eyes was about to overflow, and she stared at Chi Jingyuan without blinking.

"Thanks, um, what's your name?"

"Yoon-hye, Kim Yoon-hye."

"Okay, Yunhui." Ji Jingyuan responded, and immediately signed the album after hearing it.

"Ahhh What to do! Woooooooo ”

Kim Yunhui felt like she was electrocuted after hearing it, and she covered her face with her hands and shook her head: "I really like Oba's voice, I've heard all the parts of Oba, I stood up "If You" this time, Oba's voice is really devoted, I like it so much, I almost cried and wooed......"

It's just an ordinary person, after seeing the popular idol of the general trend, he can't help but look at it differently, not to mention these loyal fans who have long regarded Chi Jingyuan as their idols, and every time he signs it, he can see all kinds of excitement and frenzy, or gaffes, and even all kinds of fans who can't say anything, can get up close and experience their enthusiasm and love.

Chi Jingyuan has long been accustomed to this, and he can give back and deal with all kinds of feelings of these female fans very well, and after listening carefully to the other party's expression of liking, and sincerely expressing his gratitude, he smiled and high-fived the other party, so that this little fan was satisfied and a little nostalgic and went to the next person.

"Yuan Xi, I heard that your strength is very large, and my strength is also super large, can you compare with my wrist?"

The next fan is looking forward to making a request, and her intention to make physical contact with her idol is simply known to passers-by.

"This one won't work."

At this time, the assistant who had been staring at the side immediately came up to stop it, SM company is still strict about the contact between its idol and fans at the signing party, compared to some other companies that will let idols open a lot of close interaction actions to fans when signing sales, SM is very exclusive to physical contact, and this kind of intimate handshake is not allowed.

Chi Jingyuan didn't shy away from this, he saw the girl in front of him who was very disappointed all of a sudden, and comforted him with a smile: "If you can't hold hands, use your wrists, and you can also try it...... You may not believe it, but my strength is at the top of the entire XO. ”

"......" The female fan saw that Chi Jingyuan stopped the assistant and took the initiative to say that she could use her wrist to compete, and listened to him laugh and talk about some interesting things when she broke her wrists with other members, and the loss just now was swept away, and she looked at him with great emotion.

Then in the competition of strength, the body surface temperature when the wrist touched was not clearly felt and was instantly defeated, and Chi Jingyuan did not release any water, and he knocked out the other party at once.

But she was very satisfied, holding the album, constantly stroking her wrist and reluctant to leave.

"Oba, I brought a bouquet of flowers for you."

"Thank you very much, it's beautiful."

Ji Jingyuan squinted and glanced at the two wrapped roses held by the next fan, and took them very happily.

It's just that before he could ask the other party's name, this female fan immediately changed her words, and smiled expectantly and a little cunningly: "Oba, I want you to return the flowers to me again." ”

Looking at the other party's blinking eyes, Chi Jingyuan immediately understood the other party's thoughts, glanced at the rose in his hand, and asked with a smile, "Can I know your name?" ”

"My name is Eun-hee, Song Eun-hee."

Chi Jingyuan nodded, specially took out one of the two roses in his hand and put it beside him, and then handed the other one over: "Two flowers, one and a half." ”

"Ahh Song Enxi took the rose with great joy, couldn't help himself with joy, and then looked at Ji Jingyuan very seriously: "I will definitely take good care of it." ”

"Me too." Ji Jingyuan high-fived her and made a promise.

"Aniha, Seyo ......"

signed a few more fans, and the next girl who walked in front of her said hello, and Ji Jingyuan heard that she was not a local, and she spoke Korean very ordinary.

"Aren't you from the Peninsula?" He blinked, slowing down his speech specifically.

"Inside, I'm from Xia Guo." The female fan barely understood Chi Jingyuan's words after listening to it twice, and stumbled to express her origin.

"Xia Guo fans, then use Chinese." After hearing this, Chi Jingyuan naturally switched languages, took the album in the other party's hand with a smile, put it in front of him but did not rush to sign it, but took the initiative to exchange two sentences: "What is your name and where are you from?" ”

"My name is Zhang Yijuan, and I'm from Jiangcheng." Hearing the familiar language, the female fan obviously relaxed a lot, and after answering reflexively, she looked at Chi Jingyuan in surprise: "Oba's Chinese is really good, and I feel that Mandarin is more standard than mine." ”

"I went to school over there, so fans should know about it." Chi Jingyuan was a little helpless after hearing it: "And why can you pronounce the sound of 'Oba' in Chinese, just call your brother directly?" ”

"I always couldn't believe it before, hehe......" Zhang Yijuan laughed a little embarrassed: "I think Oba is closer, it's too weird to call my brother." ”

"Are you visiting the peninsula?"

"No, I wanted to see the Oba of XO, and I won the signing spot......"

"It's not easy to draw signing places, how many tickets have you bought?"

"I bought relatively few, only 5 tickets, but I was lucky......"

"Then it's really destined that we meet here...... Also, 5 is really a lot, thank you very much for your support......"

"I actually wanted to buy more...... By the way, Jingyuan Oba, I heard that you like Pokémon very much, I bought a special gift for you......" she said, while taking out a small gift from her hand, it was a small headband with Pikachu ears, which looked quite cute.

"Wow, thank you." It's not too valuable, Chi Jingyuan took it without any burden, put it on his head, looked at each other after straightening left and right, and blinked with some expectation: "How is it?" ”

"It's so handsome and cute!"

Seeing that Chi Jingyuan naturally put on this headband directly, and then looked at her smiling face, Zhang Yijuan felt her whole heart flutter, and the emotions intertwined with excitement and emotion were crazy in her heart, and she was a little speechless with happiness.

After sending away this mainland female fan who came from afar, Ji Jingyuan did not take off the Pikachu headband, and continued to sign and communicate with the fans who came to him next.

When the signing meeting was coming to an end, a female fan who looked a little older and was in her twenties appeared in front of Ji Jingyuan.

"I'm a new fan this year, and I haven't paid much attention to Kpop's idol groups before, but this year's XO is so popular that I can't help but like it when I hear the song.

"Yuan is really great, XO is really great, I've never liked a boy band like this."

“…… Consanmida. ”

This lady was relatively calm at first, but after chatting with Chi Jingyuan for a few words, she quickly became more talkative, and took the initiative to tell him about her energy to become a fan of exo, and Chi Jingyuan also signed while echoing on the side.

As she spoke, this young lady didn't know what she thought, and suddenly became a little depressed, looked at Chi Jingyuan and hesitated, but still said:

"But it's been more than three years since EXO debuted, so wouldn't it be too late to like you guys now...... I heard that XO was very difficult when he first debuted, there was no one to sign the book, and he couldn't receive the trip, and there were less than ten people at Baehyun's birthday party...... Every time I look at the very sad materials from your debut, I always feel sad because I didn't eat at the beginning, and I feel very sorry that I didn't come with XO. ”

From the other party's somewhat depressed tone, Chi Jingyuan clearly felt the sincere and pure feelings in the hearts of this fan.

Because the meal was too late, I felt sad that I didn't like them as soon as I debuted, and this kind of support and love made Ji Jingyuan feel a little flattered and heavy.

He looked at the young lady in front of him, chuckled, pursed his lips and said sincerely: "I really don't have to regret that I didn't go all the way with us, even if I just paid attention to XO today, it's not too late at all." ”

His smile is sunny, and the Pikachu ears he wears on his head are very conspicuous and playful, but his eyes are very serious:

"Because the day you like XO is also the day we make your debut."
