Chapter 64 First
As time passes, it is getting closer and closer to the day of TWICE's official return, as the first time he has written songs for other companies' groups, and it is also the first girl group song he has personally produced, Chi Jingyuan is actually quite concerned about this, plus several familiar friends like Zhou Ziyu are in this group, he still hopes that TWICE's return can be better.
After all, he and the nine members of Twice, as well as many employees of JYP, have worked hard for so long, have a good start, a good process, and of course, hope to have a happy ending.
TWICE's announcement started at the beginning of April, and the pre-sale was also opened on the 12th and confirmed to officially return on the 25th, but to be honest, this time period is actually not a very good time to release songs, because the recent period after entering the spring is actually a hot period for the return of idol groups.
Just like twice, there are also seventeen and lovelyz who announced their return on the 25th, both of which are also popular groups of the new generation, especially seventeen, who released two mini albums after their debut last year, although they have not yet won their first hit song, but with good quality songs and excellent and neat stage, it is already a very popular group among the new generation of boy groups.
Plus twice, there are three male and female groups singing on the same day, which is a relatively rare situation in the past, and under normal circumstances, it will be staggered for a few days and a week, this time the competition is not strong, and it is not surprising that fans should be breaking the scalp.
And not only is the opponent on the same day very strong, there are very strong and trendy artists returning before and after this time period, last week's block B returned to the heat after two years, and this week there is a first-line boy group VIXX, and solo debuted, and the music source has a very good score and has won 3 Zheng Eundi.
And if you look down, there will be an official announcement of their debut at the beginning of next Friday, known as the 'national girl group' voted by the national producers. I, because "PRODUCE 101" was extremely hot and discussed when the show was broadcast, it occupied a hot search for several days after it ended, and many people were waiting for their official debut, so to speak. I This girl group is basically a debut that must be popular.,Plus. I's style is actually somewhat similar to twice, but there is actually a lot of competition and overlap in terms of fans.
Further on, there is the musician of the music source Dawu Letong, and the member of Girls' Generation's second solo debut, Hwang Mi-young.
And then there's EXO, with EXO's current popularity and exaggerated fan base, if nothing else, it should be a knock off all opponents, even if it's a song that doesn't play much and hasn't released a physical album.
So twice, in fact, the selection of this return time period is not very good, there are wolves in front and tigers in the back, and the competition is very strong.
But no matter what, Chi Jingyuan still hopes that Zhou Ziyu and the others can take one
β¦β¦
As soon as the 25th approached, several groups that were about to return, such as seventeen and lovelyz, began to carry out various promotions, and the economic company also released a lot of materials to warm up, and fans began to spontaneously Amway and hype on the Internet, and the music industry suddenly became lively for a while.
Of course, JYP is not to be outdone, after the promotional photos with the concept of cheerleading released some time ago have received a lot of praise, and recently a clip will be released every other day, the trailer video of the title song "cheer up", by the 23rd, there have been seven or eight teaser videos alone, although each is only a short one or twenty seconds, but it does give fans a lot of things to watch and discuss, and the new looks and performances of the members in it have aroused a lot of interest from passers-by, Pull up the heat and anticipation.
At the same time, through some other channels, some tidbits and interesting facts about the album were revealed on the Internet, especially the relationship between the song "cheer up" and Ji Jingyuan was specifically pointed out in many places, which attracted the interest and audience of many EXO fans.
In fact, at a glance, you can know that JYP made it internally, and it is also a kind of propaganda method, but fans and many passers-by eat this set, Chi Jingyuan's reputation over the years has actually been shaped, and many of EXO's hit songs are from him, so many people are curious about what the girl group song he wrote looks like.
In addition, while cursing Lin Nalian and Rabbit Gas for their poor strength, Ellie has a clear stance to support her Oba's producer career, although it is only a girl group, but when it comes to anticipation and popularity, twice has become the hottest one in the recent return groups.
On the evening of April 24th, EXO had just finished its K-POP TOP GROUP CONCERT in Liaocheng, China.
This is a platter concert contacted by a mainland entertainment company, inviting several well-known Kpop boy groups to cooperate together, the most popular EXO as a ticket machine and the appearance of the biggest gimmick made many mainland Ellie feel ecstatic, with the support of fans, they finally appeared and performed five songs on the stage, until the end of the stadium The entire Liaocheng Stadium was still in the venue with a tsunami-like 'encore' sound.
It's really too enthusiastic, the cheers and fanaticism are really not the same level as the previous boy group BTOB, B1A4, Ji Jingyuan was a little puzzled when he saw the silver Alie sticks waving all over the field, where did these fans buy these support items.
In the end, under the enthusiasm of the fans, they returned to thank them, and after chatting a few more words, it was officially over, and by the time EXO and a few people took off their makeup and found a hot pot restaurant next to the hotel to start eating supper, it was already close to midnight.
It's so late that many restaurants around are already closed,
Just when he was chatting casually after ordering food, Chi Jingyuan suddenly remembered something, he survived halfway through the words, took out his mobile phone and began to click quickly, his abnormal movements also attracted the attention of several people next to him, Wu Shixun moved off the stool and looked over, and asked curiously:
"What are you looking at?"
"I was a little excited about the concert just now and forgot that twice's album source was released on the 25th, and it was almost a little bit over there at zero o'clock on our side, and the airborne data of the song should be coming out soon."
Chi Jingyuan explained, his finger also tapped quickly on his phone.
Although Kpop has a lot of songs that have made a comeback on the music charts through their own efforts and accidents, most of the songs are determined by a considerable part of the subsequent development after the airborne ranking comes out at the beginning, so the airborne results of the songs are very important.
Ji Jingyuan has actually been paying attention to the performance of the sound source after the release of the song twice, and before the concert, he thought about the time to take a look at the situation, and he didn't know who suddenly mentioned the recent hit "Martial God Zhao Zilong", which suddenly aroused Ji Jingyuan's enthusiasm for discussion, and then commented on the appearance and more skillful micro-expressions of Yun'er's predecessors in the play, which made him forget the problem of jet lag for a while.
"Twice, why do you care so much about a girl group? It won't be ......" Some people are not very bright, and Admiralty looked at Chi Jingyuan slightly sluggishly.
Park Chanyeol remembers it very clearly: "The title song of twice's return this time was written by Kyungwon, he is still a producer, Kyungwon ran to JYP every day some time ago, and you forgot?" β
"Oh, I remember......" Jin Zhong nodded slowly, looking at Ji Jingyuan's gaze and seemed a little surprised: "So you are really serious about being a producer?" I thought you wrote songs for twice because you fell in love with someone......"
Hearing this, Wu Shixun, who was originally next to Chi Jingyuan and aimed at his mobile phone, suddenly raised his head and said undeniably, "I can't tell." β
"Haha...... I think too. Park Chanyeol nodded with a smile as he pulled out his phone.
"I remember that there didn't seem to be a few good-looking ones in twice, and I met them a few times at the awards ceremony, and they all felt quite ordinary, not as good as Irene......"
"Lin Nalian is okay, very cute, other average."
"Isn't Ziyu the most popular...... π€ Is there a song today? I don't even know yet. β
"Well, the music source and MV have just been released, and the time in the mainland is an hour slower...... But it's been a lot of hype in the last few days, and you haven't watched the news at all? β
"I didn't pay much attention to it, and the rookie girl group felt that few of them were too attractive to me...... The song written by Jingyuan should be quite powerful, right...... I'll take a look at ...... too."
The members of EXO, including Kim Jong-dae, were also curious, took out their mobile phones and began to log on to the Peninsula's music source website.
Several of EXO's biggest hits so far have been created by them, including EXO's most popular "Roar" and "boy with luv" so far, and some other songs are also very good, and the members of EXO still believe in the strength of their group's composition and production.
There is no need to question the well-known men's group song, and now Chi Jingyuan wrote a women's group song for the first time, and now it has just been released, and several people have become interested all of a sudden.
"I remember the song "cheer up", it used to be called "come on", right? It used to be our company's song, and I heard a familiar musician from the company mention it. Jin Junmian clicked on his mobile phone, and at the same time seemed to remember something, and casually mentioned it: "But that brother's evaluation of this song doesn't seem to be very high, it is said to be a very ordinary saliva song, and the company doesn't want to use a waste song to ......."
"Nonsense? There are still waste songs written by Jingyuan? I don't believe it. Kim Min-seok was very confident in the level of busyness, and waved his hand to the back of the chair, clearly expressing his support for Ji Jingyuan.
"That's what I said anyway...... Jingyuan? Jin Junmian was also unsure, and looked at Ji Jingyuan tentatively.
After opening the web page, Chi Jingyuan was waiting to refresh it, and after hearing the words of the members, he raised his head, shrugged his shoulders with an innocent and helpless look, and then nodded and said in confirmation:
At this time, Park Chanyeol next to him also appeared on the melon list, and when he saw the ranking, he immediately shouted, his tone was extremely surprised, and Ji Jingyuan's voice came out at the same time, completely overlapping:
"Assi, who said it was a nonsense? It's called "cheer up", you see this airborne ......."
"That's what Mr. Li Xiuman meant."
β¦β¦
While EXO was chatting in the box of the hot pot restaurant, TWICE, who was far away in Seoul, Peninsula, was also paying attention to the airborne results of the sound source after the song was released.
As the parties concerned, they naturally can't be as relaxed as EXO's bystanders, at this time, the members in the dormitory living room are a little nervous, some people have been pursed their lips and can't speak, only a few who are a little calmer, like Kim Daxian, will talk from time to time to amuse and ease the atmosphere.
As the second girl group to return half a year after their debut, the results of this return are actually very critical for them, in addition to the success of this transformation is crucial to their future development, it is also because many people know the embarrassment of the company's operation at this time, as well as the unconventional expectations for the group twice.
In addition to giving them more resources and schedules, this expectation also brings breathless pressure.
This has been the case since the MV and the music source were officially released 1 hour ago, and they have been sitting here an hour ago, looking at the number of clicks and comments on the mobile phone website with worry and anticipation.
Many people are nervous and anxious, sitting on the sofa holding their mobile phones and constantly refreshing, staring at them without blinking.
But there are exceptions, some people just have a wider heart, maybe they feel that no matter whether they look at it or not, the ranking will be there anyway and it won't change...... Of course, it may be that I was too tired and went to bed directly.
It's like Hirai Momo, and she's even snoring softly.
"Ahhh......h
Lin Nalian fiddled with her mobile phone for a long time and didn't see her own ranking, complained urgently, her mouth was big, and she slammed the pillow in her arms twice, and directly dented the originally menacing dinosaur head on the pillow, and at the same time her feet with white socks did not wear slippers, and she directly kicked on the ground a few times in a row to make a knocking sound, which looked extremely anxious.
Yu Dingyan, who usually comforts her at this time, or ridicules her, is silent, sitting sideways and looking down at the phone without saying a word.
"Airborne should be pretty good, I just read the comments in the comments are pretty good." Park Ji-hyo
Kim Dahyun immediately nodded and agreed, enlivening the atmosphere, "Well, I also saw it, the fans seem to be satisfied, and the number of clicks on the MV has also increased rapidly...... I guess it's going to be in the top 30! β
"No, twenty!" As soon as she finished speaking, she felt that she had said something wrong, so she gently slapped her mouth with her hand, and raised her hand to change her mouth as if she was funny.
"That's good, I'll be satisfied to have the top twenty." Sun Caiying was happy, as if she had thought of something to make people happy, and then put her hands together in front of her, and muttered and prayed while shaking her mouth: "Top twenty!" Top 20 Top 20 Top 20 Top 20 ......"
The voice kept muttering like a mosquito, and the noise was so noisy that Nan Mingjing next to her patted her gently before it stopped.
"It's out!" This is, Zhou Ziyu, who has not spoken much, suddenly reminded him.
Although she didn't speak, she was one of the most diligent in refresh her phone
"Come out, come out, come out!"
Zhou Ziyu's voice was small, and some people didn't hear it clearly, but Park Zhixiao's voice was loud enough to attract everyone's attention in an instant.
"How many people have been parachuted in, and have they entered the ......?" someone asked, refreshing the web page, and his heart was puzzled.
"Ahhh......h
"Oh Mo! Look! β
The internet speed in Seoul is very fast, and although some people rarely experience delays, the next second everyone sees the music list refreshed on their phones, and the names and songs on it are clearly written.
γγcheer upγγ
"I'm not mistaken, is it number one?"
"It's number one!"
"Ah qingjia, is it really?"
"Ahhh......hh
The ecstasy brought by the completely unexpected results hit everyone's hearts and emotions, and some people immediately cheered excitedly, and the excitement of joy even made her a little broken.
Zhou Ziyu smiled and began to ravage Xilu in his arms, his two hands were kneading and pinching the dog's face, and after the face of the puppy who couldn't speak was crumpled, he suddenly smiled, hugged it and put his face on it and arched hard.
And Lin Nalian didn't wear shoes, so she jumped up directly from the sofa and ran around the sofa as if she was having fun, her arms stretched out and kept swaying, like a small airplane.
Several people kept expressing the ecstasy in their hearts, but suddenly found that a few members had not made a sound, they looked at it, and saw Yu Dingyan, who had lowered his head, his shoulders trembling and crying silently, and Mingjing Nan, whose eyes were red and kept wiping tears, immediately gathered around and cared:
"Dingyan, why are you crying?"
"Don't cry...... Mina, why are you crying too? β
ββ¦β¦β
"Ahh......hhhh I'm going to cry too. β
