"I heard that just because you ate a pack in the live broadcast, this snack has been sold out recently?"

Cui Xueli watched Chi Jingyuan take out a pack of snacks from his shoulder bag, her eyes lit up, she took it and looked back and forth a few times, and then looked at him curiously and asked.

Today is May 18th, and it is also the day of F(X)'s first concert. Originally, SM announced at the end of last year that FX would hold a concert this year, and I heard that it was scheduled to be held at the beginning of the year, but it was delayed because the team members were unable to reach a contract renewal for all members.

And when fans were eager to wear it, and even a little disheartened, in April, SM suddenly announced that all members would renew their contracts, and FX would hold its first offline solo concert after seven years of debut, and it was expected to be held at the end of April.

It's a pity that FX fans were overjoyed, and when the window was open to grab tickets, SM issued a communiqué saying that due to insufficient preparation time, venue and other problems, FX's concert could not be expected to be held at the end of April, and then postponed the time to May, and also announced the number of concerts, and opened the ticket sales channel at the end of April.

Although the fans are a little dissatisfied with the delay for more than half a month, the good meal is not afraid of being late, and today is finally the day of the FX performance.

Ji Jingyuan himself has a good relationship with Cui Xueli as 94line, and he also had a very close relationship with Zheng Xiujing before, although there is no follow-up, it can be regarded as a good gathering and dispersion to keep in touch so far, and the relationship with the other three members of FX is also good, I thought it was a pity that this person's predecessor group had no solo tour for seven years after their debut, and I have been looking forward to their concert, so today I took time to take Wu Shixun and Kim Junmian to watch together.

Because they had been contacted before to visit the backstage, they came very early, and as soon as they came, they were directly brought in by FX's broker through the internal channel, at this time they chatted with the familiar FX members after a walk around the backstage, and the three 94line chatted here, Jin Junmian was more familiar with Victoria, and exchanged some concert questions on the side, and Zheng Xiujing, who was a little farther away, some were communicating with the on-site director, and some were practicing twice in front of the mirror.

"It's more exaggerated than selling out." Before Chi Jingyuan could speak, Wu Shixun, who was a bystander, spoke first with a pout:

"The brand manufacturer of walnut snacks 'Kirby' was originally a small factory, and the products that were squeezed before couldn't be sold, and I felt like I couldn't hold it anymore...... As a result, it was less than a few days after the live broadcast ended that day, so all the products were sold out in an instant, and the orders behind me didn't know how far they were arranged, which was more exaggerated than coming back from the dead...... You don't know that the brand side is going crazy with joy, and they are about to supply him, first sending more than a dozen boxes of snacks of various flavors to the company for him to eat, and then saying that they are working hard to use the next revenue to ask him to be the spokesperson for the brand. ”

As he spoke, he nodded with some envy to Chi Jingyuan, who was standing next to him and smiling: "It's not just 'Kirby', seeing that the effect is so exaggerated, the company has also received a lot of contacts and cooperation invitations from other snack brands in the past few days...... His endorsement fees are not cheap. ”

"I haven't decided whether to pick it up yet...... Chi Jingyuan waved his hand reservedly: "And they are all small brands."

"LOTTE and Holiyou are also small brands?" Wu Shixun was very unhappy with Ji Jingyuan's modesty, and immediately debunked him.

"So powerful?" I just thought it was fun before, but now that I know some inside things, Cui Xueli was immediately amazed, and looked at Chi Jingyuan and gave a thumbs up: "Ah, it's worthy of EXO.Yuan." ”

In front of his relatives, Chi Jingyuan was also very relaxed, there was no shelf, he laughed twice and waved his hand: "That's it, I'll find a few suitable brands and bring you all with me when the time comes." ”

"Didn't you think about whether to pick it up......?" a voice came from next to it.

"Hahaha......"

Ji Jingyuan raised his leg and made a look of wanting to kick him, and after Wu Shixun instantly confessed, several people laughed together, and Cui Xueli leaned back and fell back the most with the most unbridled laughter.

Chi Jingyuan was actually quite surprised that the live broadcast could produce such an exaggerated effect of bringing goods, at that time he really took a bag of snacks casually, and even had only one sentence of introduction, and he didn't expect that the follow-up would make this brand of walnut kernels sell so well, and even become a fashion trend for fans and young people.

Including SM Company, it is estimated that many snack brands have also held special meetings to analyze, and he also thought about it himself, he thinks that in addition to the fact that the live broadcast is very popular, his popularity is very high, and his ability to bring goods is unexpected, and the walnut kernels of that brand are really delicious is also a very important reason.

After all, if it doesn't taste good, he won't buy it back to the dormitory as a snack.

After laughing for a while, Ji Jingyuan looked at Cui Xueli, who seemed to be much more energetic than the last time they met, and asked casually, "By the way, how does it feel to prepare for the concert during this time?" ”

"Oh, don't talk about it, I was rehearsing every day some time ago, and I even had to practice the speed of changing clothes, and I was tired to death...... You do touring every year, don't you feel tired every year? ”

"Hmm...... I don't think so. Wu Shixun thought about it and shook his head with a strange expression.

Because of the tour to make money, big sister...... They are the most motivated when they practice on tour every year.

However, Chi Jingyuan could see that although Cui Xueli was complaining, she still had an obvious smile on her face, as if her fulfilling life during this period of time had allowed her to rediscover some of her former likes for the stage.

As he was talking, there was a sound of footsteps behind him, and then Chi Jingyuan felt that his buttocks were lightly patted, and when he looked back, he found that Zheng Xiujing withdrew her right hand without missing a trace, took two steps back, and stood next to him and looked at him with a light smile.

"Oops, the big actor is here." Seeing this, Chi Jingyuan also took a step over there, squinting and applauding with exaggerated eyes.

Zheng Xiujing's path as an actor is not bad, but she has not filmed on the peninsula this year, she just finished filming a movie last month, which was filmed in cooperation with mainland film and television companies.

The reason why Ji Jingyuan knows is because the male protagonist of her partner happens to be a former member of their EXO, the third brother lay.

said that it was a former member, but in fact, lay did not officially announce his withdrawal from EXO, it stands to reason that he is still a member of XO, but he does not return and activities with the group, and focuses on the mainland itinerary.

However, the Ellie didn't recognize it at all, even though SM didn't announce lay's resignation from the group, but when the 14-year announcement came out, fans directly decided that there were only 9 people in EXO. At that time, when Lay just left, there was actually a split between Ellie, and many people were scolding him, along with Luhan and Tao, who had left before, and scolded together, what a run 123, a traitor or something.

But after a few people left, EXO reached the peak in 15 years, and after setting a more dazzling result than when he was 12 people, the number of people who scolded them became much less.

And the third brother of Lay relied on his previous fame, although he was not as good as Luhan, but he also developed very well in the mainland.

In fact, it can be regarded as a good gathering and dispersing

"Sneer~ Who are you sarcastic?"

Zheng Xiujing waved her hand, she didn't see her up and down for many days, and then inadvertently glanced at Cui Xueli next to her, and asked with a chuckle: "When the performance is over in the next few days, find a time to have a meal together?" ”

"Not in a hurry to go to the mainland to film?" Chi Jingyuan looked at Zheng Xiujing in front of him, although the private clothes with long black hair and straight hair and no stage makeup were simple, they felt very comfortable to wear on her body, and there was no change compared to before, but she obviously felt a lot more mature.

I heard that after she finished filming a movie with her third brother, she took on a TV series co-produced with the mainland, but because of the concert, the time to join the group was postponed.

"It's not over, I'm going to leave directly, it's not that urgent." She brushed her hair and said naturally.

"Okay." Chi Jingyuan nodded, I haven't seen you for a long time to have a meal and chat, it's not anything else, there is no need to twist.

But it seems that Cui Xueli also said that they would eat together after the performance......

After chatting for a while, seeing that the time was not early, Chi Jingyuan and the five people of FX took a group photo together without disturbing them anymore and left the backstage and the venue, went to the side to eat something and went around, and after the time was almost up, they came to the venue again, and sat down in front of their seats under the guidance of the staff, and after a while, the audience began to enter in order, and soon the empty venue became more and more lively, and the surrounding sounds became noisy.

Chi Jingyuan is that person's ticket was directly obtained from the FX broker, and he did not take the seat closest to the idol in the front row.

This kind of front row is used to see idols, and they are not fans who have never seen idols, and they don't know how many times they have seen them over the years, so they don't need to be like this.

Their seats are in the middle of the stage, and although they are not very close to the stage, they have a very good view, and they can better feel the atmosphere of the concert in this kind of place.

After Chi Jingyuan sat down, at the urging of the two members next to him, he took out a few packs of snacks from his shoulder bag and gave them to them...... I don't know where I got such a big belly just after eating.

Originally, he was going to call Bae Joo-hyun and Kang Seok-gi and Sun Seung-wan together, after all, there are members of 94line, and it feels good to sit together when I watched Kim Tae-yeon's concert before. But he thought about it and forgot it, the relationship between red velve and FX fans is really a bit bad, and the most ruthless attack on them when they debuted was FX fans, and the follow-up dinner between the two families directly formed a big feud, and it was easy for fans to be photographed when they came to the concert to cause dissatisfaction and tearing of fans.

And Ji Jingyuan thinks that Bae Joo-hyun shouldn't like Zheng Xiujing very much......

After chatting with the members for a while, half an hour later, the stadium was almost full, Ji Jingyuan looked around left and right with a baseball cap, and most of the fans were holding periwinkle colors, that is, purple cheering sticks and cheering hands...... In other words, SM's idol support color will have a name that looks very tall, just like EXO's silver has to be said to be a 'cosmic latte'.

The fans and audience all looked quite enthusiastic, and deep down he could clearly feel the lively atmosphere and that sense of anticipation, and he also saw a lot of faces from other countries in his sight, and it seemed that he should have come to Seoul to watch the FX concert.

However, the number of attendees is not large, probably because SM estimates the appeal of FX is average, and it is also the first concert that will be more conservative according to convention, so the concert venue is arranged in the Olympic Hall of Seoul Olympic Park, which is not large, and the full load is only 4500 people......

But to be honest, Chi Jingyuan's decision is also understandable, the fan composition of the FX group is also very complicated, Zheng Xiujing is the most popular, Cui Xueli is okay, Victoria is a foreigner and the audience is limited, and the popularity of the remaining two members is a bit average, on the whole, only there are more fans than group fans, and the two busy meals still like to tear each other, and it doesn't look like it's easy to sell tickets.

What's more, by 2016, the second-generation girl group has basically come to an end, and in recent years, many unsmooth FX have actually declined a lot, and many fans have already climbed the wall to the arms of younger and fresher girl groups.

But...... In fact, in the seventh year of their debut, the significance of being able to hold their own tour cannot be measured by the number of people simply, and it really doesn't matter how many people they open.

This debut, which was held seven years after its debut, and the first tour that was only held by renewing the contract of all members of FX means different to all members of FX and even fans, Ji Jingyuan heard a lot of things from Cui Xueli about their preparations for this concert, and he knew that Zheng Xiujing specially shirked the time to join the group for filming.

Victoria herself has a lot of trips in the mainland, but she is not absent, but in order to practice the concert, it is very hard to run back and forth in Seoul in the mainland, and she has lost interest in the stage, and Cui Xueli, who neglects to practice and has reduced her dancing strength, has also been in the practice room during this time, wanting to do better, and the other two members are the same, everyone is doing their best.

Therefore, when the group's life is obviously coming to an end, they can hold their first tour, interact with all the fans intimately, and let all the loyal fans who have followed them for many years, and they themselves have no regrets.

And in a way, I'm actually very lucky.

Soon it was time for the concert to begin, the overhead lights of the venue slowly went out, and the VCR of the opening credits began to play on the big screen of the stage, and amid loud cheers, several members of FX appeared in the VCR one by one.

Immediately after a flash of red light, the five figures gradually rose with the lift, slowly appearing in everyone's field of vision, and the excited fan screams did not last for two seconds, and the dynamic and familiar prelude music had already sounded.

“Ay-wait a minite”

"Follow the laws of the jungle and eat the jungle."

Hearing the melody of this extremely unique style of "Red Light", Chi Jingyuan also smiled and raised the support stick in his hand under the influence of the surrounding atmosphere, and slowly waved it with the two members next to him, the purple light shining in the dark, like a periwinkle blown by the wind under the shaking of countless fans.

……

FX's first solo singing ended successfully, although it is no longer their era, but it can be regarded as Yu Weiyou, and the next day under the promotion of SM and many media, there was still a lot of movement, among which the EXO trio was also on the hot search because they were photographed by the director in the middle of the concert, and many Ellie felt a little helpless about this news.

If you have time to watch other people's concerts, you don't have time to appear in front of the TV for us to watch more, so don't you have time to have a few more live stages?

Can you be serious and return to the regression period!

As if hearing the voices of the fans, Ji Jingyuan and the others returned to their work after watching the most significant first show, because according to the previous company's plan, the activity period of the first song "Fire" was only two weeks, and now they have entered the second week, and they are going to start the three songs this week.

At this time, in front of the interview desk in the waiting room of "Music Bank", the two alternates of this issue were preparing for the interview recording, and Ji Jingyuan was pulled to the front by the on-site PD at this time and began to catch up.

"Hey, Jingyuan, it's been a long time since I've seen you in Music Bank." PD patted him on the shoulder, very hard.

Because he and Bae Joo-hyun were the best time for the ratings of "Music Bank" during their tenure as MC, the impression and attitude of all the employees of the program team towards them were particularly good, and through the MC work of "Music Bank" for more than half a year, Ji Jingyuan can be said to be very familiar with all the staff of the program team from top to bottom, and the same is true of the PD who is responsible for the interview and recording.

After getting off the bus from "Yinyin", this is the first time that Ji Jingyuan has re-appeared on this show as an idol, and when he came backstage just now, he just said hello to the PD VJs.

"Brother, didn't we just meet when I came to KBS to record a show some time ago?" Ji Jingyuan looked at this familiar PD strangely, feeling as if he had lost his memory.

"I mean at Music Bank." PD waved his hand, and then said with a slight complaint: "Some time ago, I wanted you and Irene to have a special stage, but the invitation was rejected by your company. ”

"Of course I'm fine...... But I can't help the company's arrangement, hehe. Chi Jingyuan smiled perfunctorily, and then asked politely: "The show should have gone well recently?" Han PD shouldn't have scolded as often as before, right? ”

The PD smiled wryly when he heard this, and glanced at the two MCs who were facing the script not far away, and shook his head gently, but he didn't say anything to complain.

After Ji Kyung-won and Bae Joo-hyun, the "Music Bank" program team explored in many ways, and with the efforts of the brokerage company, they finally found Kang Min-hyuk of CNBLUE and Ahn So-bin, a popular member of the girl group Laboum, to take over the MC of the show. At the same time, because they wanted to reproduce the myth of the former Yinyin CP, the program team initially had the same requirements for the hosting style of the two newcomer MCs as the Yinyin CP.

It's a pity that in the music industry, people like Ji Jingyuan and Bae Zhuhyun don't want to change the channel when they appear in the camera, which makes the audience want to stare at it all the time, and the extremely eye-catching visual miracle-level idols are extremely rare, and at the same time, the tacit understanding and sense of alignment between the two of them that make people feel very sweet, but have a sense of proportion and don't feel tired at all are unique.

After all, you'd be really hard-pressed to find two real male and female kisses to host the show......

The word 'visual miracle' was given to the duo of Ji Kyung-won and Bae Joo-hyun when the audience of "Music Bank" was discussing and nostalgic for the former Yinyin CP on the Internet after being extremely disappointed with the latter two MCs, and it quickly became popular because it felt very appropriate, and it was used to describe male and female idols who were very good in appearance and impressive.

So the two MCs who succeeded did not achieve the desired effect under the deliberate imitation, the ratings of the show are declining, and in a few months, the ratings and popularity of "Music Bank" at that time far exceeded that of other singing programs have returned to normal, not only the two new MCs have also gotten a lot of choking from Yinyin CP fans, from appearance to style, and then to all aspects have stood up for a round of covering attacks on them, resulting in them now not imitating the style of the former Yinyin CP.

Seeing PD's expression, Ji Jingyuan didn't ask much, laughed twice and chatted casually for a few words, then temporarily said goodbye, glanced at the nine people who were gathered not far away, and his eyes drifted a few times from time to time, he returned to his team, ready to start recording an alternate interview today.

"Today's standby room welcomed two teams with one alternate today, they are EXO, and Twice."

"Welcome them ......"
