Chi Jingyuan looked at the visitor, smiled and shouted.
"Ah, junior, you have been here for so long, why don't you go and visit senior? Don't you know that we also have a stage today?"
"Hey Yigu, you are worthy of being a great singer with a record-breaking music record, Yuan Xi. It's really incredible. I already need senior to take the initiative to visit you."
When Kim Taeyeon saw Chi Jingyuan, she smiled at first, then quickly restrained herself. She complained mercilessly to him, and her tone behind her words was very sinister.
"Ani, I'm getting ready to go."
Chi Jingyuan stood up and walked over, smiling sincerely.
"Tch." Kim Taeyeon glanced at him disdainfully, then crossed over to Chi Jingyuan, smiled and greeted Bae Suzy, who was saluting, and exchanged a few warm greetings.
Obviously they have nothing in common, but it looks like the two of them have a good relationship.
After chatting briefly for a while, Chi Kyung-won gave Bae Suzy and Park Jae-hyun a wink, then followed Kim Taeyeon out of their lounge and walked towards Girls' Generation's lounge.
"Is Taeyeon the only one? Where are the other seniors?"
Chi Jingyuan and Kim Taeyeon walked side by side backstage, not walking too fast. From time to time, they would salute and say hello to artists they met passing by. When she had time, she asked casually.
"Why, the shelf is big enough, but it's not enough for me to do it alone?"
Kim Taeyeon looked at Chi Jingyuan and pretended to be angry and said something, but when she saw his smiling expression, she couldn't pretend anymore, she raised the corners of her mouth and laughed, glared at him and said angrily: "Xiuying
A few people went to meet their friends, Yoona and Yuri were still putting on makeup, and the others were doing their own thing."
"…………"
Chi Jingyuan nodded indifferently, he was just looking for something to talk about.
"By the way, there is a private dinner party on the night of the 8th. Jingyuan, remember to come over then."
At this moment, Kim Taeyeon suddenly remembered, turned to look at him and warned him.
"What day is the 8th? And I don't know if I have time..."
Chi Jingyuan blinked and looked at the puzzled expression. Before Kim Taeyeon could change her face, she immediately smiled and waved her hand: "The 8th is Taeyeon's birthday. Of course I remembered it. How could I forget? All the gifts are already there."
Buy it in advance, don’t worry.”
"snort……"
Kim Taeyeon, who was just about to change her face, couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth, looked at him with a hint of anger and a smile, and said angrily: "I called you last year and you said you didn't have time. If you say that again this year, we may not be able to meet each other in the future.
"
"Nenene, I must go, I must go."
Chi Jingyuan nodded sincerely, looking happy and happy, but his heart was a little bitter.
I have to work overtime again that day...
Girls' Generation and EXO's lounges are very close to each other. They turned a corner and walked a few steps to get there. Without saying a few words, they arrived at the door. Taeyeon didn't even bother to knock on the door, but then she remembered that Ji Kyung-won was behind her.
She knocked on the door perfunctorily, pushed it open and took him in without waiting for a response.
"Senior, Anihasay..."
As soon as Chi Jingyuan entered, he took a quick glance and saw that there were six members here including Kim Taeyeon. Then he smiled and saluted and greeted them.
"Jingyuan is here..."
"Hey Yigu, Jingyuan, I haven't seen you for a long time."
"Jingyuan, come here quickly, sit here!"
When the younger sisters saw him, they all waved enthusiastically and said hello in a flurry of words. Even the two who were putting on makeup paused for a moment, turned their heads and smiled and waved to Chi Jingyuan.
.
After saying hello, Chi Jingyuan walked over with Huang Meiying's smiling wave and sat on two adjacent sofas with them.
On the right is Huang Miying and Kim Taeyeon who are also sitting together. On the left is Sunny, who is leaning lazily on the sofa and playing with her mobile phone. When she sees Chi Kyung-won coming over, she slaps him twice with her short legs, which is considered a greeting.
.
Chi Jingyuan glanced at Sunny speechlessly, and suddenly felt that the way this sister looked in the lounge looked a bit like himself.
"Taeyeon just waited for a long time and didn't see you coming. She angrily slammed the door and walked out. Jingyuan, she didn't give you a hard time, right?"
Huang Meiying looked at Chi Jingyuan, narrowed her eyes with a smile, and started joking while hugging Kim Taeyeon.
"Of course not, Taeyeon praised my popularity." Chi Jingyuan shook his head and looked at the other person with a narrowed smile.
"Haha, I don't believe it, just Taeyeon..."
Huang Meiying burst out laughing and waved her hands with an impossible expression. Before she could finish her words, Kim Taeyeon elbowed her and suppressed her with a glare.
"The songs are well written, and "some" is really great. The full version of the arrangement is much better than the half-finished song I listened to when I was recording the demo, and the singing is also better."
At this time Sunny put down the phone, stretched and sat up, glanced at Chi Jingyuan up and down, and took the initiative to praise. At the end, he also playfully added: "The lyrics are not bad. As expected, they were written by you. You don't have enough experience."
No one can describe the taste."
"Haha..." Chi Jingyuan didn't quibble, and he winked and grinned with Sunny.
"Yeah, Jingyuan, you don't know, Taeyeon really likes the song "some". She has been listening to it these past few days, and she always says..."
Huang Meiying was halfway through speaking when her mouth was covered by Kim Taeyeon. She quickly bent her eyes with a smile and raised her hands in surrender.
These two people do seem to be quite close, and their relationship is very interesting. The roles of attacking and receiving are not fixed and always change with the situation.
"hehe……"
Chi Jingyuan and Sunny looked at each other and laughed. Then they looked at the two people fighting, pondered for a while and said, "If there is a chance, I will definitely cooperate with Taeyeon Noona once in the future."
"Tch, now you know that Nuna is good at singing?"
Kim Taeyeon's face lit up with joy as soon as she heard this, and then she quickly restrained herself, pretending to raise her head and glance at Chi Jingyuan, and said something stupid.
"Arnie, how could it be possible? I knew it on the first day of my debut."
Chi Jingyuan made a fan-like gesture and looked at Kim Taeyeon with admiration. That look made Taeyeon unable to hold back her laughter, and the bright laughter immediately spread throughout the rest room.
Chi Jingyuan sat there and chatted with Sunny for a while. He didn't talk about the results of his comeback or anything like that. Instead, he talked about some fascinating personal and embarrassing things. The whole lounge was smiling all the time, and Chi Jingyuan was putting on makeup next to him.
Yoona and Yuri kept looking over here.
After a while, Jessica and others also came back. When they saw Chi Jingyuan when they walked in, they all came over to say hello and started chatting enthusiastically.
Jessica had always felt good about Ji Kyung-won because of the incident involving Jung Soo-jung's role. Although she witnessed Chi Kyung-won and Kim Ah-young dating in the parking lot, she was too lazy to care about her personal life and it had nothing to do with her.
After a while, TVXQ from the lounge next to them also came over. All the SM artists who participated in this episode of "m!c" today gathered together, laughing and chatting, and the atmosphere was quite good.
TVXQ is considered the senior member of the company and was once the mainstay. After the split, the two remaining members, Jung Yunho and Shim Changmin, although they are not very close to Ji Kyung Won, they have known each other for a long time and have participated in SMtown Family many times. Concerts are already quite familiar.
Both of them have pretty good personalities. Jung Yunho is more cheerful and likes to joke around, while Shim Changmin has a very different style from his more relaxed style on stage. He is considered a top student and was recommended to Kyung Hee University. Privately, he is a very good student. Self-disciplined people tend to make people like them when they smile.
Of course, these were some of Chi Jingyuan's superficial perceptions when he came into contact with them. He didn't know the deeper true character and private style, and he didn't need to know.
TVXQ also released the follow-up song "Enchanted" to its regular seventh album on February 27, and is currently in the process of singing.
It's really interesting to say that SM doesn't know how it arranges it. It likes to arrange for its artists to come back at the same time and then do it themselves.
Last year, fx and EXO were arranged to come back together. fx had a good momentum and could have won more title songs but was directly ended by "Roar", but this year, several groups came together to return together.
However, the focus of TVXQ's current activities is no longer on the peninsula but on Neon. They are not so optimistic about one person now, and the song promotion period has been shortened a lot. It is estimated that they will go to Neon after the song promotion in the past two weeks. Continue to carry out activities.
After chatting for a while, Chi Jingyuan left, waved to a few sisters and returned to his lounge. While playing the game console, he chatted with Pei Xiuzhi.
More than half an hour later, after being interviewed by MC, Chi Jingyuan heard from his assistant that Girls' Generation was about to record a stage. He put down the game console with great interest and stood up to watch. Before leaving, he asked his partner: "I'm going to watch some Noona recordings. Do you want to go?"
Today is the first stage of Girls' Generation's comeback. Given their status, they must have adopted the method of the company setting up the scene in advance and then pre-recording it.
"I'm not going." Pei Xiuzhi looked in the mirror and replied without looking back.
Chi Jingyuan nodded, closed the door, left the lounge and walked to the side of the stage. At this time, Girls' Generation had already posed on the stage and the intro had started to play.
He found a place where no one was around and leaned against the wall to watch.
The singing outfits of "mr.mr." are indeed very unique. They wear a shirt with a red tie and a dark blue suit, paired with tight jeans. They are very handsome and sassy, a complete boy band style.
In the Peninsula girl group, which has been dominated by sexy styles and pure styles in the past two years, Girls' Generation has a completely different style every time they come back.
Unlike some girl groups, once they change their familiar songs and styles, many of them become uncomfortable and unable to control them.
Girls' Generation's hip-hop line "I Got a Boy" last year to today's "Mr. Mr.", each style seems to be digested well.
This is also a place where they are great.
The makeup on today's stage is pretty good, especially Taeyeon's look is really eye-catching. Her dyed black hair is tied together, wearing a top hat, and she looks handsome and busty in a suit. Chi Jingyuan thinks she is
There is not even one member who has the best makeup this time around.
The music is also OK, rhythmic and addictive, and the choreography is not a drag. Several parts make people feel their charm on the stage.
But that’s about it. If I ask Ji Kyung-won to evaluate it, the title song of this comeback is a song that meets the standards of Girls’ Generation. It has some bright spots, but it’s not much better. It’s a bit ordinary.
.
After watching them record twice, Chi Jingyuan nodded to the sisters who had been looking at him from time to time since he appeared, left the stage and returned to the lounge, and then waited for the show to officially start recording.
…
“Who will be ranked first in m!countdowm in the first week of March?”
"Girls' Generation versus Yuan&suzy, please watch the results on the screen!"
The two MCs, Ahn Jae Hyun and Jung Joon Young, stood in the middle of the first row of the stage, enthusiastically presiding over the award ceremony for the last person.
The two candidates, Girls' Generation, stood on their left, while Ji Kyung Won and Bae Suzy stood on the right.
Chi Jingyuan stood there with a smile, his eyes glancing over from time to time. After the ranking of one was about to be announced, he obviously saw that a few sisters were a little nervous and kept staring at the screen showing the scores next to them.
Some people have a relaxed look and smile as if they don't care, but in fact their attention is still focused on the top of the screen.
Regardless of whether they are seniors in the same company, or whether they have a good relationship or not, at this time, they definitely don’t want to lose.
And losing to the juniors from the same company is actually even more unacceptable.
As Jung Joon Young announced loudly, the dynamic BGM and the shouts of the fans below sounded at the same time, and silver ribbons sprayed out from both sides and slowly fell on the artists on the stage.
At the moment when the result was announced, several SNSD members' expressions darkened slightly, but they quickly straightened their expressions, turned sideways and looked at Chi Jingyuan next to them, and clapped softly with congratulatory smiles on their faces.
.
Chi Jingyuan calmly accepted the trophy with a business smile on his face, bowed politely to the seniors next to him, and then took the microphone and spoke his speech.
After finishing their speeches, they were about to enter the encore stage. All the artists bowed to each other and prepared to leave. SNSD, led by Taeyeon, walked towards Ji Kyung Won.
Kim Taeyeon, who was in the lead, wrinkled her nose and glanced at Chi Jingyuan, then grinned and laughed with her little white teeth exposed. She stretched out her hands and shook them while congratulating:
"Congratulations, you are awesome, junior."
"Kang Sang Mita." Chi Jingyuan smiled brightly and gave Taeyeon a high-five with both hands.
It can be seen that Taeyeon is not in a good mood because she did not win the first place in Girls' Generation, but after all, she is very close to Ji Kyung-won, so she doesn't take it too seriously.
Anyway, she had already expected it before her comeback because of the amazing momentum of "Some", so there is no surprise now.
It's just that she boasted so much that Ji Kyung Yuan couldn't get a single Haikou. Looking back now, she couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. But fortunately, Ji Kyung Yuan had a wink and didn't mention it at all, allowing Taeyeon's face to be preserved.
.
Taeyeon was followed by Sunny, who also gave a high-five and congratulations with a smile on her face.
Her mentality seems to be very dull, and it seems that there is no impact on one person after another.
Originally Girls' Generation was going to leave after just saying hello, but Taeyeon and Sunny took the lead, and those who followed simply followed suit. They all smiled and high-fived Ji Kyung-won one after another, emphasizing SM's family ties.
The performance was very good, and it also made their fans feel a lot less angry about not getting the first place.
After all, he is his junior brother, so it wouldn’t be a big deal to give it to him in the first week. After all, “some” is really popular.
Chi Jingyuan smiled brightly, and after high-fiving each of the SNSD sisters, he took the microphone and started the encore. This period of singing ended with the fans singing in unison.
It's just that there were some bad voices on the Internet afterwards. Many people thought that Girls' Generation had suffered a big decline this time around, and that the hegemony of the top girl group had obviously begun to decline.
"It's so funny. I did so much promotion before my comeback, and there were press releases everywhere. But after a long time of doing my first song, I was knocked out by my junior brother. Is this the number one girl group?"
"Don't talk about the first week, with the momentum of "some", Girls' Generation can't even think about snatching one away before they graduate three consecutive championships."
"The last time SNSD came back was with "I Got a Boy" in January last year. This time it's a comeback after a year and two months. Countless fans have been looking forward to it, but the result is just that this result is a bit unsatisfactory.
.”
"I was a one before this year, until Yoona's relationship was exposed on January 1 this year and I lost my fandom... To be honest, there are too many people like me. Many of my old fans have left because of this incident.
Many of them are die-hard fans with great purchasing power, which can be clearly seen from the sales volume of this comeback."
"Can you please stop talking endlessly just because of one song promotion? Don't you know how popular EXO is now? Yuan himself is the top of EXO's popularity gap. He can't wait to account for more than one-third of the entire group's fans, and yet
With a popular idol partner like Suzy, and "some" being a rare music hit, isn't it normal that you can't win the first week of your comeback? If you were the main protagonist, believe it or not, your score would be doubled... Oh no, you guys are
Not even one candidate can get in, and no one counts the scores. It’s really pitiful.”
"Yuan is also an artist from SM, and is the younger brother of our Unnies. He is not considered an outsider if he wins the first place. It's so annoying to have these other people's backbiting."
When SNSD failed to sing on the first day, many fans came out and started making noises.
Of course, the performance of a comeback cannot be determined by the victory or defeat of a singing stage, but what some people said is correct. Girls' Generation's sales have experienced a very obvious drop in this comeback. This is something that everyone can see.
inner.
After the release of Girls' Generation's "I Got a Boy" last year, sales quickly exceeded 300,000 copies, completely surpassing other girl groups and opening up a huge gap with the second best seller.
But this time, the sales volume of "mr.mr." has just exceeded 130,000 copies since its release. It once broke with other girl groups and overpowered the boy groups. The sales gap that Sone is most proud of has slowly begun to be smoothed out.
Although the album is still selling every day, judging from this trend, it is already very good to break through 200,000 copies.
It can only be said that the rumor of romance by a top popular girl group is really too harmful to a girl group, and in the seventh year of their debut, a girl group has indeed reached the end of its vitality period, and even Girls' Generation cannot avoid it.
On the next day of "Music Bank" on March 7, Yuan & Suzy once again defeated Girls' Generation, who were also candidates, and won the first trophy with a record-breaking 11,150 points this year, with a huge advantage.
You must know that this is the highest score they got in "Music Bank" this year when their sales score was 0, which can't help but amaze idols and passers-by.
March 8th is the 400th special program of "Music Center". SM has featured several groups of artists, including TVXQ, Girls' Generation and EXO.
They were already very familiar with the covers of "Roar" and "Sorry Sorry", and they performed smoothly without any problems.
During the recording of this program, in addition to Kim So-hyun, one of the MCs, taking the initiative to go to the lounge to exchange contact information with Ji Kyung-won, what impressed him the most was seeing the long-lost girl group Tara again on stage.
In this program, in addition to the exchange stage with Ko Yutai "Do You Know Me", they also performed their 2011 Melon annual song "roly poly" which ranked first on the annual chart.
The number one spot on Melon's annual chart is really not an achievement that just anyone can achieve. This song is also the song with the best performance in Tara's music source. Although the sales are somewhat short of that of Girls' Generation, it also represents their dazzling performance.
's peak period.
It's a pity that after the incident in 2012, the situation of the entire group took a turn for the worse, and its popularity with the public collapsed. In just six months, it went from being popular among the public to being ignored by no one.
After a period of time, Tara still worked hard amidst the turmoil. She had a small group, collaborations, and member solos. Unfortunately, it was difficult for them to regain the love of the public after being bullied by the Internet. Even the title songs they returned several times were good.
Good songs, but none of them made any splash, only fans were trying to support them.
This time during the recording, I suddenly saw these girls again. Chi Jingyuan couldn't help but think of the high-spirited Tara who was discussed enthusiastically in private by Park Chanyeol and other members when they participated in the "Dream Concert" not long after their EXO debut.
Quite emotional.
In the evening, Chi Jingyuan went to Taeyeon's birthday party.
Before Chi Kyung-won left, because it was during his comeback period, not only to give back to the fans but also to promote the show, SM Entertainment planned a public birthday party for Taeyeon and rented a small exhibition hall to hold a birthday party.
Some selected fans came to the scene. With the participation of all Girls' Generation members, they sang congratulatory songs and blew out candles. They celebrated Taeyeon's birthday in a lively and heart-warming way.
After the birthday party, some SNSD members left together with the fans. Taeyeon took a few close friends and found a restaurant to open a private room, and held a private birthday party among friends. Ji Kyung-won
This is what I participated in.
When Chi Jingyuan came, it was already very late and almost early in the morning. As soon as Chi Jingyuan arrived, he handed the gift he had prepared, which was a black silver-rimmed high-end brand customized microphone to Taeyeon.
This gift really surprised Kim Taeyeon and felt it suited her "golden singer" style and taste.
When I got it, I opened the box and couldn't bear to throw it away. When I got excited, I sang a few words with an unplugged microphone, causing the people nearby to besiege me. Then I put it away proudly.
At the same time, he gave Chi Jingyuan an exaggerated wink and a passionate blowing kiss.
At this time, the ladies were already a little tired and full, but they were quite lively and chatting after seeing him coming. After ordering a few dishes, they started drinking and chatting.
Although he was very happy to get the gift, Chi Jingyuan could see that several people, including Taeyeon, whose birthday was today, were not in a good mood. There were many emotions in their eyebrows. In this atmosphere, he couldn't help but say something.
He recalled many past events.
Chi Jingyuan didn't interrupt much. He took a sip of wine from time to time and sat there quietly as an observer.
Girls' Generation's seven-year idol experience, coupled with their many years of hard work as trainees, have led to today. I don't know how much sunshine and rain they have spent in the process. The already tipsy sisters seem to have returned to the time when the members got along with each other.
The happy and exciting things from time to time, as well as some disputes and conflicts, all resurfaced in my memory while drinking wine.
The other sisters drank to increase conversation and enthusiasm, but after taking a few sips, Taeyeon's cheeks turned red and she looked so dizzy that she might collapse on the table at any time.
Huang Meiying snickered when she saw this. She took out her phone and took a few photos of Taeyeon who was dazed, and then saved them proudly, saying that she was going to show Taeyeon how drunk she was tomorrow.
How funny it looks.
Chi Jingyuan imagined that Huang Meiying would end up surrendering under Taeyeon's glare and fists tomorrow. She probably knew that, but she still enjoyed it after doing it so many times.
It is indeed a feeling that has settled over time, which is quite good.
After staying until after one o'clock, Chi Jingyuan said goodbye and left. He got into Park Jae-hyun's car, which had been waiting nearby, and rushed back to the SM building instead of going back to the dormitory to rest.
We still have to work overtime today, and other members are still practicing there.
Thank you bro for your tips and monthly tickets. Thank you very much.
Oh, there are also subscriptions and recommendations (blowing kisses!)
