"Live?"

Faced with the agent's new name, several members repeated it with some surprise.

At this time, it was not a high-level meeting, but a small meeting held by EXO and the broker group to which they belonged, mainly to discuss and explain the recent itinerary and what needs to be paid attention to, among which Lee Seung-hwan, as the head of the main broker's office, is the highest-ranking one.

"Hmm."

Lee Seung-hwan nodded, skillfully looked at a stack of documents, and introduced them: "It's NAVER...... NAVER don't say you don't know...... An app for celebrity video content is called Vlive. This APP is said to contain many functions, but the main function is the live broadcast of celebrities. ”

"Brother is so serious, I thought it was something, live broadcasts are not very common, we have done it a few times, such as the third anniversary of the debut." Park Chanyeol seemed to be a little disappointed, and interjected with a smile.

"And there are still a lot of differences between some of the live events we received before, this Vlive In addition to the live broadcast of the event that includes the preview, the main focus is the raid live broadcast, which is more casual and natural than regular broadcasting, and you will know the specific difference then."

"This APP was tested on August 1st, and we XO was the first to experience it. Officially launched on September 1st, the operator has invited us XO to conduct live broadcast activities for several days at the same time as the launch, which can be regarded as the greatest degree of fame and market occupation ......"

Although Lee Seung-hwan's last two sentences were not directly boasted, they still made everyone in the conference room very comfortable to listen to, and some people couldn't help but smile reservedly and proudly when they listened to them.

Now it is indeed such a market, EXO in the Peninsula boy group is in full swing, the popularity and influence are visible to the naked eye, Vlive may have invited many groups of artists in the days when it was launched, but it is the most important one for EXO.

"The other party attaches great importance to us and is very sincere, in the future, we will have a lot of preferential treatment and more resources in the use of Vlive, the company is very optimistic about the prospects of this APP, it is already next, and after the APP is officially launched, the other party will carry out more cooperation with other artists under the company......"

"Now it's just a matter of saying it in advance.,We'll be the first to use it after the test starts in August.,After the official launch, the specific live content company will definitely hold a meeting to discuss.,But suho, you also think about it yourself.,After all, the live content still has to be done by yourself.,Remember to put forward your own opinions when the time comes。

The A4 paper in his hand was sent down separately, and Lee Seung-hwan finally explained.

"Got it, brother."

The members of XO responded a few times, and several of them seemed interested in the livestream.

However, Chi Jingyuan didn't think there was anything special, he didn't have any feelings about this 'raid live broadcast', and now it was just an ordinary work schedule.

Next, after introducing and explaining the important itinerary and group activities of the EXO group in the past half month, he began to focus on the personal resources and single variety shows that each member has been busy with during this time.

"Chanyeol, don't forget tomorrow's "Law of the Jungle" production presentation, remember to get ready......"

"SUHO, the last recorded "The Masked Singer" needs to be reshot a few shots......"

"XIUMINI's Mickey Mouse Club will shoot a new ...... the day after tomorrow"

"There are also magazines for Jongdae, Sehoon, Baekhyun, and ...... of you."

With EXO's smash hit beating bigbang to officially become the top of the new generation of boy groups, as the popularity continues to rise, it is now the harvest season, and now the entire group is very popular with various endorsement brands and advertising agencies, and the cost alone has obviously increased a lot compared to before.

And variety shows are even more so, although some programs cannot be on the EXO group due to reasons such as itinerary and cost, but the invitation of a single member is still very popular, because basically as long as XO members appear, it will play a significant role in promoting the ratings.

Recently, in addition to Chi Jingyuan, XO has received a lot of variety show itinerary cooperation cities, including "The Law of the Jungle" with very good ratings, if you add the "Extreme Challenge" fixed in the mainland by the third brother who doesn't know whether to quit the group or not, XO now looks like there is a trend of transforming into a variety show group.

At the same time, the same is true in fashion, many members have received the shooting itinerary of fashion magazines, in addition to Ji Jingyuan, among which Kim Jong-in and Oh Se-hoon have relatively the best resources, but at present, there is no first-line publication and other shooting in the invitation received by other members, and there is an obvious gap from the shooting of the cover of the top magazine VOGUE that Ji Jingyuan received before.

It's just that the cover he shot at that time was placed in the most important September issue of VOGUE Korea, so it has not been released until now.

No wonder when he was filming, he was dressed in autumn clothes......

In the end, it was Chi Jingyuan's turn.

"Jingyuan has the recording of "Infinite Challenge Song Festival" tomorrow, this time it is recorded at MBC, and I will rush to the TV studio in the morning, you remember to prepare...... By the way, did you watch the third issue of "Song Festival" broadcast on the 18th? Lee Seung-hwan said and looked over.

"Not yet, I don't have much time in the past two days." Ji Jingyuan blinked, indicating that he hadn't seen it yet.

"Now the ratings of each episode of "Song Festival" have increased significantly, and the broadcast of the episode the day before yesterday has caused a lot of discussion, especially about the final style of your group's songs, and what kind of songs you and IU will come up with...... Do you have a clue about the songs you want to use now? ”

"Well, it's almost done, and all that's left is the adaptation and arrangement."

"So fast?"

Lee Seung-hwan didn't know the specific situation of Ji Jingyuan's variety show recently, obviously a little surprised by his progress, glanced at Ji him in surprise, nodded and continued: "The song has come out, so it's okay...... This time, the attention and popularity of "Song Festival" are much greater than the company expected, especially the team formed by you and IU has attracted a lot of viewers who have not watched the show before, which is one of the hottest topics in the variety show industry and even the song industry......"

"However, although this kind of popularity is a good thing, the audience's expectations and interest have been raised, and at the same time, your character in the outside world, or the public's impression of you, has always been an excellent genius composer, and if the quality of the final song does not meet the requirements of the public, or the quality of your song is obviously worse than IU...... You get the idea? ”

"Well, I know, brother." Ji Jingyuan nodded.

He knows what the other party means, the expectations and attention of the outside world are of course a good thing, but at the same time it is also a burden, if the quality of the final song is too poor and does not meet the audience's psychological expectations, it will disappoint many people and cause negative emotions, and it will also affect Chi Jingyuan's very positive image.

And because of the group with IU, both of them have the setting of 'genius' or 'music girl' in their character designs, if one of them writes a song that is too watery, it is easy to be stepped on by the outside world.

Although it's just a variety show, not to mention how good it is, it must not be too bad, like some of the songs in the previous Song Festival, it will definitely not meet the requirements.

But fortunately, Chi Jingyuan feels quite good about the song prepared this time.

"Have faith?"

Li Chenghuan looked at Ji Jingyuan and asked, then looked at him and nodded casually and breathed a sigh of relief, and laughed: "That's good, if you have any problems with the arrangement or production, please communicate with the company at any time...... By the way, let me listen to it when it's done, I'm really looking forward to it......"

"So do we."

"Hahaha, let's listen to it then."

With the last laughter, the meeting was also announced under the clapping of Lee Seung-hwan, and there were no large group activities in the two days after returning to Seoul, and after saying hello to each other, the members went separately to run a business or go on their own business.

Ji Jingyuan went to the music room after eating something, and planned to take advantage of today's leisure time to perfect the song of the Song Festival.

However, sitting in front of the computer, he didn't start working directly, but went online first, opened the playback of the third issue of "Infinite Challenge Song Festival" on the 18th, adjusted the progress bar and looked at the share of their group's shooting.

But having said that, the whole recording of this issue that day was recorded for nearly ten hours, and the amount of the part belonging to their group that was broadcast in the end was only ten minutes, and it was really difficult to do this variety show.

This episode was recorded when the three of them met for the first time after the group, and the filming location was in the music room where he is now, and the main content is that the three of them meet and then discuss the theme and style of the song.

Although it was a long time ago, he still remembers that recording, and IU really made a deep impression on him that day.

Seeing IU carrying the iconic big guitar that could crush his body again, his expression was a little timid, and he seemed to be a little scared and walked into the music room, Ji Jingyuan couldn't help but laugh again.

This sister is really interesting.

The next step is for the trio to talk and chat, and then talk about the songwriting.

As a spectator, it is easy to see that at the beginning of this group, except for Zheng Hyung-dun, the other Ji Jingyuan and IU are obviously not very familiar, and they are a little restrained in their conversations, and they are deliberately polite in their words and actions.

But when it came time to discuss the theme and style of the song at the end, the two people who were hello and I just now immediately began to be tough again, although they smiled and expressed their opinions and discussed at the same time, but one insisted on popping and the other insisted on lyricism, and no one refused to take half a step back, as if this thing was about their self-esteem.

Until the end of this issue, they still didn't convince anyone, leaving the rest of the suspense for the next issue.

This contrast between the front and back, as well as the confrontation between the two seemingly polite, but in fact confidently persistent, made the audience feel very interesting, and at the same time had a strong interest in the final result.

And the editing of the program team also left suspense, no wonder it caused heated discussions after the broadcast.

"This group is the most interesting of these groups, although it looks a little awkward at first, but it looks very interesting before and after...... The two disagreed, one insisted on fast song pop, the other insisted on slow song lyricism, and in the end they didn't know who could convince the other party. ”

"I'm really looking forward to the cooperation of these two people, well, by the way, it's three people, and there is a Jung Hyung-dun kkkk"

"Wow, after Yuan noticed that IU was wearing a short skirt, he directly took the initiative to hand her a pillow, which is too careful."

"With a face! When I saw this scene, I wanted to knock Yuan and IU's CP, wow, I suddenly felt that they were a good match......"

Chi Jingyuan, who was reading the comments below, couldn't help laughing when he saw this message of knocking CP.

The hope of this audience may be a little difficult to achieve, IU now has a boyfriend, although it is not disclosed to the public, but it is not too much of a secret in the circle, Ji Jingyuan heard Park Chanyeol mention it a long time ago, and I heard that they have been dating for a long time.

After casually reading the comments for a while, Ji Jingyuan put down his phone and began to get into work.

The song he prepared for "Song Festival" was progressing quickly, both in terms of the song and the lyrics.

Originally, he didn't want to make this song as a band song, but later confirmed that he wanted to use it, and when he tried to adapt it, he found that the original song was very suitable for this style, and it was also quite suitable for changing it to a lyrical song.

The lyrics are not difficult, they are nothing more than the extension of inspiration and imagination, telling a story or stacking words.

But the name ......

At this time, Chi Jingyuan looked at the computer, and the position of the title of the song stopped, and after a pause, he couldn't help but start thinking.

When I didn't fill in the lyrics, the song title I used to use temporarily was "Stars", but now it looks a little inappropriate, too straightforward, and it doesn't quite fit the depth and style of the lyrics.

What's the best thing to change it to......

Sitting on the stool and muttering for two minutes, I don't know what I remembered, Chi Jingyuan chuckled, retracted the title of "Stars", and gently typed in a new name:

"House of Towers"

…………

"It's overcast."

Wu Shixun stood at the exit of the stage connecting the stage, poked his head to look at the dark and gloomy sky, and said with some worry: "Won't it rain later?" ”

And the other EXO people standing around couldn't help but glance at the sky after hearing it.

Today is the 23rd, and they are at the Olympic Gymnastics Arena to attend the LOTTE Lovely Young concert that will be held here in the evening.

This is another theme concert hosted by LOTTE to promote himself and give back to fans, inviting many popular artists and idol groups who have cooperated with him and the current time to perform on stage, regardless of the number of audiences or the lineup of guests, it is a very powerful type in the platter concert.

At this time, EXO was on the edge of the backstage exit, preparing for the stage rehearsal.

Ji Jingyuan's gaze turned from the infinite who was rehearsing to the sky, and he followed suit.

In the past two days, in addition to almost finishing the song "House Tower House", he also participated in the recording of "Infinite Challenge Song Festival", this time the theme of the content is "intermission and contradiction link", the five groups in the process of making songs separately, have some entanglements or frictions, this link is to do some small games at the same time, to unify everyone's emotions, and at the same time unify the divergent opinions in their respective groups, to speed up the progress of making songs.

In fact, this issue is completely unnecessary for Chi Jingyuan and their group, although he and IU had great differences of opinion before, but the subsequent recording quickly reached a reconciliation and the progress was amazing, when the other groups were still struggling with what tunes to use, they directly agreed on the style and demo of the two songs, and even now Chi Jingyuan's capital is almost completed.

So he didn't have a chance to perform in this issue, and he acted in a few episodes according to the script given by the writer, and made a few small games to be considered a success.

"Didn't look at the weather forecast? Today's report is heavy rain, didn't you see that some of the audience who came in advance prepared raincoats when they entered the venue before? ”

Regarding the fuss of this group of people, Kim Min-seok expressed some helplessness.

Don't they even look at the weather forecast?

"The weather forecast is inaccurate, and I often say that it rains and it doesn't rain in the end, so I don't watch it for a long time." As if to save his respect, Wu Shixun, who was the first to say that the weather was bad, tried to defend himself again.

Sure enough, his crow's beak was really smart, and by the time the rehearsal of a few of the infinite's songs was completed, EXO had just stood on the stage when it began to rain in the sky.

At first, it was just a small drop, but in the afternoon the sky began to flare up, and the rain swept down in an instant, staining the whole city with a layer of gloom, and the sound of huge raindrops on the ground felt very noisy even in the indoor lounge.

This can no longer be said to be heavy rain, it can rise to the level of heavy rain.

Even though it will definitely affect the performance on stage, the rain will not affect the start of the performance. And although Chi Jingyuan and they will complain a few words, they are actually used to it.

After all, as a popular group, who doesn't have a few famous stages in the rain.

EXO's rainstorm "MAMA" stage at the family concert has been regarded as a classic by many fans, and the number of hits on the YouTube tube of the related videos and members is very high, and even passers-by are quite shocked when they see it.

Speaking of which, Tao seems to have walked because of this stage......

As the scheduled time came, tens of thousands of spectators wearing raincoats entered the stadium, and this time the LOTTE concert officially began.

Although the weather is very bad, the enthusiasm of the audience has not decreased, probably because of the heavy rain and some admiration for the dedication of the idols, even if the stage is not their favorite idol, most of the audience is still very face-saving to give support, so that the atmosphere of the whole show is very warm.

However, the idols who performed enthusiastically on the stage were very ugly after getting off the stage, and the people who walked into the backstage after each performance were soaked, looking like they had just been fished out of the lake.

For example, Red Velvet, who had just returned to the backstage, was surrounded by the assistants and agents who had been waiting here with dry towels as soon as they entered the lounge.

Wipe it first, then go and change your clothes to avoid catching a cold.

One of the most embarrassing is that today's appearance is very good-looking, and they also contributed to the famous scene of 'mutual fingering' that made the fans cheer at the scene, Jiang Shiqi and Bae Zhuhyun, these two were still on the stage just now The cordial interaction between you and me is beautiful, but now they can't open their eyes, their nose, eyebrows and chin are all wrinkled, their hair and bangs are glued to their faces, and they open their hands for the assistant to help wipe their bodies.

But it's also because it's all soaked, so that the legs of the young lady wearing a pleated skirt today are wrapped in water, and then under the light of the incandescent lights in the room, a crystal color lingers, and it looks as lovely as a solid white jade.

Looking at the busy SM assistants, Chi Jingyuan really wanted to help.

It's a pity that there are a little too many people around.

At the end, it was EXO's turn to take the stage, and the nine XO members wearing straight pink suits and white shirts just appeared on the stage, which immediately caused the audience to cheer loudly, pushing the atmosphere of the stadium to the highest peak.

It is said that it is a platter concert, and the fan groups and companies of each performer are allocated admission places, but in fact, among the tens of thousands of spectators who came in today, more than half of them are EXO fans Ellie, standing on the stage at a glance, densely connected, and the ubiquitous silver-white Alice stick is the best proof of this.

First of all, he performed a song "EXODUS" from the second album, and soon the electronic prelude of "Roar" sounded, which directly detonated the enthusiasm of all the audience and fans, and the chorus of the audience appeared again.

EXO doesn't know how many times I've done this kind of thing as turning a platter concert into his own solo concert, whether it's the artists themselves, the Ellies, or even the fans of other families, they have long been used to it.

The torrential rain was pouring on his head, and Chi Jingyuan, whose clothes had been wet within two minutes of being on the stage, opened his eyes and worked hard to complete the dance of the song.

Although the rainstorm did have an impact, my hair was soaked as soon as I came up, my eyes were a little unopen, my clothes and socks were sticky and uncomfortable, the floor of the stage was very slippery after being wet, and I was worried about the headset leakage if I didn't open the microphone to lip-sync.

However, the hard support of the audience and fans has greatly reduced the discomfort caused by this weather, at least although Ji Jingyuan is very uncomfortable at this time, his body is still quite hot.

However, the accident happened suddenly.

When Ji Jingyuan stood in his position on the stage, performing "Roar" with the members who had skipped an unknown number of times, and was jumping to the iconic leaning Thomas, he had just squatted down, and his hand had not yet touched the ground, but his left foot as a support suddenly slipped, making the whole person lose his center of gravity in an instant, and his right knee suddenly knelt on the floor.

"Hiss......"
