"jinjia? I haven't paid attention to this recently. I only know that the broadcast rights of "The Heirs" were sold some time ago... Is it so popular?"
Chi Jingyuan blinked and was also very surprised.
He is extremely busy during this period, and usually just pays attention to the news around him.
I just know from personal experience that Jin Tan is very popular in Peninsula recently, because basically there is a group of fans hanging out in front of the set every day, and there is an endless stream of magazines and media interviews.
I didn't expect it to be so popular in other countries.
"Well, "The Heirs" is very popular in several countries, especially the one where you play Jin Tan, who is the most charming and impressive character. Your fame there has even surpassed that of EXO."
The group has attracted many passers-by who didn’t care about male idol groups before to start paying attention to xo.”
"and…………"
Li Xiuman nodded to confirm, and at the same time introduced the recent situation.
EXO is very popular in Xia Country and Southeast Asia because of its frequent activities, especially in Xia Country. However, after all, most of their fans are students, and the audience is firstly defined within a certain range, which is obviously restricted.
But with the popularity of "The Heirs", Chi Jingyuan, who plays the male protagonist Jin Tan, has been sought after by countless people. Many fans of the drama and Jin Tan's fans began to pay attention after learning that Chi Jingyuan was born in EXO.
This idol group brought a lot of attention to xo.
Nowadays, invitations to Chi Jingyuan and EXO are coming from the markets in these places like snowflakes, almost knocking SM out.
It's just that Chi Jingyuan has been filming and can't leave. Both the company and Lee Soo Man are very anxious.
"In this case, you don't have to ask Jingyuan specifically about the specific completion time. The company will follow up with the crew. After the completion of the first period of practice, the focus of your and xo's work should be on the entire Asia.
Come on, Jingyuan, you have to be prepared."
"Nai, Mr. Hideman, I will be ready."
Chi Jingyuan nodded slightly, indicating that he understood.
He doesn't have any feelings about overseas travel, but he hates flying back and forth.
Li Xiuman nodded with satisfaction. This was the place he was most optimistic about and admired most about Chi Jingyuan.
"By the way, because of the popularity of "The Heirs" and Jin Tan, the company has recently received a lot of TV drama scripts, all of which were actively submitted to you in the hope that you would participate. People in the planning and film and television departments have studied them all and feel that they are useful.
Some of the scripts are pretty good..."
Li Xiuman stood up and walked to the coffee machine, saying as he continued: "But I think it's better for you, Jingyuan, to see for yourself. Regarding your plans for the film and television industry, the company will not be involved. After all, the resources you have behind you are somewhat connected."
The company is envious..."
"Thank you, teacher, for your understanding."
Chi Jingyuan immediately thanked him.
"You have a really good eye for selecting scripts. From your debut "Reply 1997" to your second "The Heirs", they were all popular dramas of the year. Unlike some of the company's self-produced dramas in the past two years, they are obviously
I have worked very hard, but the result is..."
When he talked about this, his expression turned a bit worse. SM invested a lot in order to enter the film and television industry, but the result was unsightly.
2009's "Head to the Earth" made Jung Yunho and Go Ara's journey as actors more than twice as difficult.
But this is pretty good. The 2007 movie "Fantasy Boy Horror" directly cut off the acting career of most people in SJ and became one of the dark histories that no one wants to mention.
From "Paradise Ranch" in the next 11 years to "To the Beautiful You" in 2012, there was no one that did not star its popular idols. The company invested in and promoted it, and various popular idols performed OSTs, but the final ratings
The rate is unacceptable, and the reviews online are full of criticism.
I just hope that the self-made drama "Zongli and Me", which will be released at the end of this year and is a collaboration between SM, KBS and C&C, can win back the victory.
"..."
Naturally, Chi Jingyuan would not express any high opinions on this topic. He pursed his lips and remained silent.
He naturally has his own method for selecting scripts, but of course he will not tell the company. If he is a very close friend, he may recommend one or two.
Just being able to pick out scripts is useless. Without resource investment and personal connections, you won’t be able to get important roles in them.
This topic was a bit heavy, so Li Xiuman just sighed a little and immediately adjusted it, and immediately talked about the next thing:
"By the way, Jingyuan, the planning company has started discussing EXO's next full comeback. This time, the second mini-album will be released. The title song is tentatively named "Overdose", which was composed by Kenzie, but it has not been completely completed yet.
Finished, if you have ideas you can participate in the arrangement work."
"This time's "Roar" is really great. Both the company and the company recognize your composition ability very much, Jingyuan, so for this comeback mini-album, both the record and planning departments, as well as me, hope that you will participate."
"If you have already written songs or new ideas, remember to take the time to finish them as soon as possible, and then record a demo for me just like the last time with "Roar"."
Lee Soo Man was obviously very satisfied and fond of "Roar". He leaned over and patted Ji Jingyuan on the shoulder. He said with expectation and encouragement: "If the song is great, we will use a double hit format or change the hit song."
Songs can also be discussed, and I am very much looking forward to your new work, Jingyuan."
"Teacher Lee Soo Man, we have been so busy lately, and "Miracle in December" will be coming back in a few days, and we have a collaboration with JYP at the end of the year. With such a tight schedule, let alone producing new songs.
I guess it will be difficult to even spare the time to record the demo.”
Chi Jingyuan was not happy after hearing this, but instead sighed with a grimace.
"Haha, there's nothing we can do about it. Who made you so popular and popular..."
Li Xiuman wiped away Chi Jingyuan's complaints with laughter: "Xo does have a lot of schedule recently, but I don't need you to finish it now."
"The company's plan is for xo to return around April next year, so Jingyuan, just give me the demo at the beginning of next year. There are still a month or two left, so you can always find time. I believe in your ability."
"Gui, I'll do my best..."
Chi Jingyuan sighed and shook his head slightly.
The two went on to chat about the style of the new album. When Ji Jingyuan was about to leave, Lee Soo Man seemed to suddenly think of something and said: "Jingyuan, I heard from fx's manager that you recently had a relationship with
Suli and Xiujing are very close?"
This sudden question cheered up Chi Jingyuan. He narrowed his eyes with a smile and nodded cheerfully: "Well, because we are both born in the same year and are close to each other, we have become relatives and have been in contact with each other more recently."
"hehe……"
Li Xiuman smiled and waved her hand, as if she didn't care at all: "Of course there is no problem in being a relative. Even if it is a romantic relationship, it doesn't really matter if it's you."
"It's just that it needs to be a little more secretive. It's best not to be photographed by reporters or fans. EXO's recent momentum is very good. This kind of news must not be exposed, but you don't have to worry too much. If there is such news, the company will also
I will take the initiative to stop you."
When Lee Soo Man faced Ji Kyung Won, his expression was completely different from that of other idols under his banner, as if a kind elder was caring about his junior.
What he said was also very interesting. If the other EXO members heard it, their eyes would pop out in surprise.
"Nai, I will pay attention to Teacher Li Xiuman."
Chi Jingyuan nodded to indicate that he understood.
