Looking at the top of the lyrics, the title of the song "i" that had just been written with a gel pen, Ji Kyung-won and Kim Tae-yeon both laughed, and a sense of accomplishment could not help but arise.

Today's work is over, folded the lyrics and put them in the drawer, Ji Jingyuan got up and began to tidy up the music room, and Kim Taeyeon also looked like 'I'll help too', took the initiative to put the pillows on the sofa neatly and neatly, and threw the drink bottles on the table into the trash.

"I'll be able to fix the lyrics of the rap soon, and I'll be able to hold a meeting to confirm it after I return from Xia Guo this time."

After finishing up, Chi Jingyuan locked the door with his bag on his back, and the two left the music room and walked towards the elevator, while walking, Chi Jingyuan explained: "Nuna, you can start practicing songs now, and you can record directly when the time comes, which can save some time......"

"Including this "i", I have already practiced several songs that have been confirmed in the album, I don't know how many times, is it okay to memorize it backwards?"

When Kim Taeyeon heard this, she felt that she was underestimated, so she couldn't help but roll her eyes slightly, and then waved her hand magnificently: "Don't worry, it's absolutely no problem to record at that time." ”

"Hmm...... I'm strict. Chi Jingyuan felt that he had to say hello in advance.

"No matter how strict it is, it's no problem! You still don't believe me singing? ”

Nodding his head, Ji Kyung-won didn't say much, recording shouldn't be a difficult thing for Kim Taeyeon, and some other people probably wouldn't be able to say it when he changed it for a while.

The two stood in front of the elevator and pressed the button, Chi Jingyuan took out his mobile phone and looked at the time: "Okay...... It's past twelve o'clock, do you want to go have a meal? ”

"No, I don't have time today."

Speaking of this, Kim Taeyeon sighed: "I came here this morning after a trip, and now the other members are still waiting for me at the TV station, and there will be a shooting in a while, so I have to hurry up now...... The return period is really exhausting. ”

"Indeed."

Ji Jingyuan nodded.

As soon as the idol arrives at the return period, he will automatically enter the state of being busy with his feet not touching the ground, the higher the popularity, the busier he is, of course, he has a deep understanding, so he didn't say much, and casually chatted about the return of the young time, while waiting for the elevator.

After a while, the elevator came down, and it happened that there was no one inside, so it directly became a charter elevator for two people, and the ladder began to descend slowly after pressing the first floor.

It's just that the elevator that has just descended two floors stopped again, and with a "ding" sound, the ladder door opened, and the two people in the elevator and the few people who were about to get on the elevator at this time couldn't help but hesitate for a moment after seeing each other, and looked at each other for a second.

"Senior Anihassaiyo ......"

"Ernie!"

"Jingyuan/Oba is so coincidental?"

At this time, the four people waiting for the elevator outside happened to be Red Velvet, and they were obviously a little surprised when they saw Ji Kyung-won and Kim Tae-yeon, and quickly took the initiative to say hello after coming back to their senses.

It's okay with Ji Jingyuan, they are already very familiar with each other or relatives, mainly because Kim Taeyeon, a big senior.

All four of them were wearing casual sportswear, and their heads were still dripping with sweat, and they were estimated to have just finished practicing at a glance.

And Ji Jingyuan saw Bae Joo-hyun standing in the third at a glance, this sister was wearing this little bear at this time, wearing sports short sleeves and denim shorts, stepping on a pair of small white shoes of the same color as her legs, and after she saw the people in the elevator, she blinked her eyes and naturally looked over.

Although my head was groggy yesterday, "Butterfly Girl" sung by Bae Joo-hyun is still very clear in my memory, but I didn't expect to meet it so coincidentally on the phone last night.

The two glanced at each other, smiled lightly tacitly, and then looked away at the same time with a tacit understanding.

"Twist ......"

Kim Taeyeon smiled and waved in response, and Ji Jingyuan gave up his place to the side, and Jiang Shiqi, who was the first to the head, walked in while saluting, and the closed elevator immediately began to fill with a soft body fragrance, mixed with the smell of sweat.

“irene！”

Kim Tae-yeon's eyes lit up after seeing Bae Joo-hyun, and she pulled her to the side with a pull of her hand, held her hand very closely, smiled and admired the white and red face of the young lady, and asked after snorting twice, "Have you just finished practicing?" ”

"Ioni, this will be about to eat."

Bae Joo-hyun seemed a little flattered when she was holding her hand, and stood next to Kim Tae-yeon like a little sister.

The three people who came to Debeibei next to them were a little surprised to see this scene, as members, they didn't know when their captain was so close to the senior when he was young.

Don't look at SM likes to promote family love, in fact, in private, the relationship between idols of different generations is far from as close as imagined, at least Jiang Shiqi and several people looked a little restrained after seeing Taeyeon, and they didn't dare to speak loudly.

To be honest, seeing the appearance of Bae Joo-hyun and Kim Tae-yeon, they were quite envious.

Bae Joo-hyun nodded in response and then turned his head to look at Ji Jingyuan: "Where's Ernie?" ”

"I've just finished working with Jingyuan, and I'm going to go to the TV station."

Kim Taeyeon explained briefly.

As the elevator door closed, there was a boom of descending, Chi Jingyuan glanced at it and found that there was one person missing, and he poked Jiang Shiqi next to him with his elbow with some curiosity: "Joy, why didn't you see her?" ”

"She has the filming of "My Knot" today, and she went out early in the morning." Shiki, who was poked, seemed a little happy, and replied quietly with a smile.

"Oh, "I knot", I'm so envious...... How's your album going? ”

"I've been practicing the dance of the title song for the past two days, Jingyuan, let me tell you, we're ...... this time" As if thinking of something interesting, Jiang Shiqi whispered with a smart look and chatted with Chi Jingyuan.

It didn't take long for the elevator to reach the first floor, and after a few people finally said two words, they were ready to say goodbye and separate, before leaving, Kim Taeyeon suddenly remembered something, and beckoned to Bae Joo-hyun: "Irene, the nail salon you said last time, let's go together when we are free in two days." ”

"Okay, Ernie." Of course, Bae Joo-hyun would not refuse, and nodded obediently again and again.

Ji Jingyuan, who had just walked a few steps on the side, heard this, and glanced back without looking, looking at the smiling Kim Taeyeon, he was suddenly a little speechless in his heart.

Are you two so close now? It's a little too fast.

Moreover, didn't you say a good return period, and still have time to team up to get your nails done?

……

After running for more than a day, Chi Jingyuan and the EXO team boarded a flight together on July 16 and flew to Xia Guo, and the next 16,17 has some exclusive activities in the mainland and two long-awaited signing sessions for fans, and 18,19 There are also XO concerts to be held on both days.

For this reason, Chi Jingyuan was also absent from the recording of "Music Bank" on the 17th, but the young lady once said that even if she was absent because of the trip, she hoped that it would be best not to find someone else to substitute for her, so Chi Jingyuan simply did not find someone and let her host this issue alone.

This is also the meaning of the program group, and now the unique hosting style of "Yinyin" CP has already made its own name, attracting a large number of fans, and bringing a huge amount of ratings and attention to the show.

And it is also difficult for them to find Chi Jingyuan, a popular and popular male artist, to substitute for the class.

In fact, when Chi Jingyuan was invited to be a fixed MC at the beginning and negotiated a contract with SM, the program team and the company had already communicated, and they knew that because of a large number of overseas trips of EXO, Chi Jingyuan was likely to be absent from some recordings, but the program team had no opinion at the time, and now that the ratings are so high, it is naturally even more willing.

After flying to Jiangcheng on the 16th, they stayed at the hotel, and after getting up the next day to accept two interviews and recordings, XO pedestrians came to CapitaMall, which is also the venue for today's book signing.

"You are a cold and fiery devil~"

"Take a bath with a summer shower~"

There is still more than an hour before the official start of the signing meeting, at this time, the nine XO people are preparing in the lounge provided by the organizer, the area is not small, and the well-decorated room is playing a song just released yesterday on the mobile phone, the title song of the comeback album released by the company's predecessor group Super Junior 16 "Devil"

At this time, the room not only reverberated with the source of the song, but also often mixed with the forgetful singing of the XO members, and it was clear that this song that had just been released had a lot of fans among them.

Chi Jingyuan is also one of them, he likes this song very much, at this time he is sitting on the sofa while swiping his mobile phone, half of his head shakes his head to the rhythm and melody, and when he reaches the chorus, he will hum two sentences along with it, which is very enjoyable to watch.

In recent months, the song industry on the peninsula has really been on fire, and the peak duel of the two generations of top boy groups in May and June has just come to an end, and after entering the summer of July, the summer girl group battle was immediately opened, and there are various boy groups fishing in troubled waters in the middle, which can really be said to be a lively landslide.

Mamamoo, AOA, Sistar, Nine Muses, Girls' Generation, and Girls Day are back in turn, and there are also popular boy groups like Infinite to disrupt the situation and EXO that doesn't leave.

And in the last two days, some new artists have returned with songs, on the 13th, JYP boy group GOT7 announced their return with a mini three-album, and on the 14th, Kara's Goo Hara made her solo debut again.

Until yesterday on the 16th, Apink who reached its peak last year, but has not moved for more than half a year, also joined the girl group war, and at the same time, SJ also released an album to commemorate the 10th anniversary of his debut, and now Ji Jingyuan is listening to the title song of SJ this time.

Although Apink hasn't returned to the Peninsula for a long time, but this time the momentum of the regular second album is quite hot, the sound source is airborne in the inner ring, and the pre-sale has reached nearly 70,000 and a new high, although it has only been back for a day, but in terms of results, it should be second only to Girls' Generation.

However, when it comes to APINK's title song "Remember" for this summer style, even though the makeup of their album this time is very eye-catching, and each member is very good-looking, it can be regarded as one of the peak makeup makeup since their debut, but to be honest, Ji Jingyuan prefers SJ's "Devil", which sounds particularly dynamic and makes people want to shake their legs.

These groups are not the kind of little-known lake groups, they are all popular groups with their own names and fan groups, and several dozen or so combinations get together, and they are all exciting to watch.

Alas, it's so lively, I really want to send a song to get involved.

In the first two weeks of the girl group battle, Chi Jingyuan actually felt a little funny every time he got one in front of Sistar, AOA, and when he was young, he wanted to laugh, this kind of competition was full of enthusiasm, but the last one was really interesting.

It's a pity, and I don't know how long the popularity of "Boy With Luv" will last.

"In other words, busy every day?"

Chi Jingyuan sent a text message back to Zhou Ziyu.

Nothing to do at this moment just waiting for the signing to begin, he listened to the song, shook his legs, and texted for a while.

As he expected, Zhou Ziyu had signed a contract with JYP a few days ago, and according to her, all nine people selected by "Sixteen" signed twice, without exception.

It's normal, after all, they've all been working hard for so long, and they've even won their debut places after competition, and they're one step away from achieving their dreams, and no one will give up their efforts without signing a contract at this time, even if it does seem a bit harsh.

And now, including Zhou Ziyu, the nine people of TWICE have begun to prepare for the Tao, and they are sitting every day with all kinds of hard work and study for their final debut.

"Yes, I have to go to school every morning, and when I come back, I have to practice the songs on my debut album, and I have to learn a lot of things that artists need to know.

She replied quickly, and a long list of words showed a slightly irritable mood and a small complaint, but Ji Jingyuan also felt a strong sense of fulfillment from it, as well as a strong expectation for the official debut of the taste.

The same was true before EXO's debut, compared to Zhou Ziyu, Chi Jingyuan was even more tired to death every day because of a period of time when the devil assaulted because of his poor dancing foundation, but even so, he was still very energetic every day, after all, there was only one last step left before his debut, which was painful and happy.

Now, it's Zhou Ziyu's turn to enjoy the process.

"We've also moved into a new dorm, guess what?"

She should have nothing to do with it and will come back quickly, so she sent another one without waiting for Chi Jingyuan to speak.

"What kind? The one used by the Major team in "Sixteen"? ”

Ji Jingyuan should have guessed one, the two groups of "Sixteen" have their own dormitories, and it is normal to renew the house of the debut group directly to Twice.

"If only the major team had used it! We thought the same way before, and we looked forward to it for a few days, but our dormitory was the house on the first floor used by the previous 'poor student group', the old one, I heard that it was still used by which predecessor before, and we moved in after tidying up, and it was much worse than the dormitory of the major group in terms of area and decoration, but there was one more basement to ......"

"So slammed?"

Ji Jingyuan didn't expect JYP to be so calculating.

But just debuted, it really shouldn't be a house with a very good dormitory, it's not conducive to struggle, the dormitory in the red velvetjb district is very general according to Pei Joo-hyun, XO also lived in Jiangbei at the beginning, the dormitory is small and old, and the nine people live in chaos, and it was also after the big explosion became the top group, and only moved into the big house this year, and now XO's dormitory is in the entire Peninsula idol group, regardless of area, decoration or supporting facilities, it should be one of the top.

And JYP hasn't had much money in the past two years, so it's normal to save if you can.

"Yes, many people privately say that the company is stingy, hehe...... But after staying for a few days, it's okay to get used to it. By the way, we reassigned dorms, guess who I'm living in a room with now? Ha, I'm in a room with Dahyun and Chaeyoung now, and all three of us need to go to school, so we're the youngest busy! ”

"Both of them have good personalities, and luckily the three people in our room love to be clean and take the initiative to clean, unlike other ......"

After signing the contract, she entered a state of preparing for her debut, practiced new songs, lived in a new dormitory, changed her roommates, and formed a new group with eight people who were familiar or unfamiliar, and may not even deal with them.

"When will you make your debut?" Chi Jingyuan asked with some curiosity.

"It's not decided yet, the company said that it depends on the progress of our preparations, and it seems that it should be around October...... I also heard them say that the company will find a time period when the competition is relatively small and there is no big trend for artists to return to arrange our debut. ”

It should indeed be like this, even if the group twice has its own popularity because of the draft, but after all, it is a newcomer, and there are not many fans and not much loyalty, so finding a time period with less competition does have a better chance of success.

But in October......

"That ......"

Ji Jingyuan felt inexplicably familiar when he saw this time, and paused for a moment, and when he was about to say something more, Li Chenghuan came over and stopped him, handed over a stack of documents, and generally instructed: "This is the general process and script of today's signing meeting, Jingyuan, you will go through it again as a translator and host." ”

"Oh, yes, brother."

Chi Jingyuan immediately took the document and responded, since he came to work, he had no time to chat, put his phone aside, and looked at it seriously.

……

"We are one, hello everyone, we are exo."

"Hello everyone, I'm Yuan from XO...... Heard heard heard, ah, really so welcoming, thank you, thank you...... Thank you very much for taking the time out of your busy schedules to come to our book signing, and I will be the host and translator for today's session, so you should know that I Chinese speak very well...... Ha ha. ”

Ji Jingyuan held the microphone and smiled at the sunshine, and said the opening words of this signing meeting in extremely fluent Mandarin, which caused a burst of cheers after almost every sentence.

"In fact, we have always wanted to have more signing events and other activities in the mainland, so that we can meet more people...... It's really, really nice today...... When I knew that so many people were coming here in the background just now, the members were quite nervous......"

“……”

In addition to the highlight of signing the album at the end, the signing party was also preceded by an interactive session between idols and the fans present, including chatting, doing some small games, and sometimes singing a song and dancing, how to liven up the atmosphere, how to make the fans happy.

Compared with the final signing, the previous link is actually very important, and many fans who came to the scene came to interact with their idols at close range.

Because of the popularity in the mainland and the level of Chinese, SM directly asked Chi Jingyuan to be the host and translator for the two signing sessions held here.

This decision is obviously very clever, just look at the excitement of the fans below and the fiery atmosphere.

In addition to presiding, he also had to translate some of the words spoken by the members.

Brother Junmian said that Xia Guo's fans were really enthusiastic, and he didn't know how to thank him...... Why don't you let him be coquettish? Do you want to see it? ”

After listening to what Jin Junmian said, Ji Jingyuan translated it after a little modification, and coaxed him in the back, and then followed the fans in the audience, looking at Jin Junmian, who was embarrassed and cute, and laughed.

"Huh?"

“…… The food here is really great and I enjoyed eating here...... Well...... Hmm,"

At this time, Bian Boxian next to him said a few words in Korean, and Chi Jingyuan immediately came over to listen, but he was stuck halfway through his speech, and he couldn't hold back the next word, and Chi Jingyuan immediately took a sentence according to the context and breakfast: "Bean skin?" ”

"Yes, bean skin, I like to eat this ......"

After he said it again, Chi Jingyuan laughed, turned to face the two words 'bean skin' below, and the curious fan translated:

Brother Boxian said that he likes it very much, there are really too many delicious foods here in Jiangcheng, and he especially likes to eat three fresh bean skins...... That's what we ate this morning. ”

After the translation, Chi Jingyuan put his hand to his mouth, looked mysterious, and deliberately lowered his voice to invite a gong below: "I recommended it to them." ”

"Ahhh......h

This passage was obviously very flattering, and the fans in the audience screamed with excitement.

After chatting for a few days, I made a few small games, and finally Chi Jingyuan sang two Chinese songs under the coaxing of some fans, and finally officially opened the signing in an excellent atmosphere.

After the two signing sessions, it was followed by two concerts, on the 18th and 19th, at the Tianjing MasterCard Center, the venue of nearly 20,000 people was full for two consecutive days.

Whether it is the disgusting scalper tickets that have sky-high prices, or the extensive discussion and attention caused in the mainland Kpop circle, as well as many complaints on the Internet that SM companies choose too small venues, all of them show that in idol groups today, EXO is still a standout in the mainland in popularity and popularity.

Don't look at the music industry where so many groups and fans brag about their overseas popularity every day, but they can really open this kind of 20,000-person tour in Xia Kingdom, and they are not afraid that the tickets will not be sold, and the venues are full, and now they are EXO and BIGBANG, and the other groups are a little weaker than these two.

After finishing the concert, EXO returned to Seoul the next day, and was pulled to the company's conference room for a meeting before he got off the plane.

Facing the important itinerary that the agent introduced to them just now, Chi Jingyuan and several members of the team were a little surprised and repeated it over and over again

"Live?"
