"The last guest, 'The Overhungry Cat', sang Taeyeon's "If". It is said that he also made some special arrangements of his own..."
After Yoo Jae Suk made a loud introduction, he immediately walked off the stage, and several judges in front of the camera began to whisper about the effects.
"This song? It's one of my favorite OSTs."
"You even made a special adaptation? Are you so confident?"
Amid the discussion, a figure wearing a big yellow cat mask and long dark clothing walked up from the screen door and stood in front of the placed standing microphone.
"Male or female?"
"With this height, he must be a man! Look at those shoulders... they look like a man."
"It can't be Rain, right?"
"This mask feels like one of those mannequins in a children's playground..."
Ignoring the comments made by a group of judges whom he had just met and greeted backstage, Chi Jingyuan stood still and imitated the movements of the original singer he had seen live, clamping his legs together in front and back,
He gently touched his lower abdomen with his right hand, pretending to be singing very reservedly, and soon the BGM started playing.
"If I get close."
"If I come close to you."
He did not use his own reasons, but specifically imitated the original singer, and deliberately made his voice slightly clipped, making it sound greasy.
"What would you do..."
But when he got to the third sentence, he suddenly got stuck, and his voice suddenly disappeared and only the accompaniment that was still playing could be heard.
If the microphone hadn't been broken, it looked like he had forgotten his words.
However, Chi Jingyuan did not have any panic. He put his hands in front of his stomach, followed the melody, hummed "Ah~~~" instead of the lyrics, and shook his head slightly, looking very involved. It seemed that this song was like this
Singing is how it should be.
"Ha ha ha ha……"
Several of the judges who had just been prepared to listen carefully to guess who the voice was were burst out laughing, pointing at the stage and laughing loudly: "Did you forget the lyrics at the beginning? Is this his own adaptation?"
Chi Jingyuan, on the other hand, didn't pay attention to them at all, as if he had completely immersed himself in the ocean of music, singing the song "If" intermittently:
"I'm always so timid."
"Ah~~~"
One lyric paired with two or three 'Ah's', the whole process is very smooth and the charm of this song is restored. Whether it is the expression of emotions, the movements during singing, and the intonation of pronunciation, it is almost as different from the original singer.
situation.
A song was sung quickly, and the people below were applauding and cheering. Liu Jae Suk came back to the stage and started to host: "Everyone, please tell me your guesses first."
"I think he must be a very experienced singer." Yoon Zhongxin touched his chin and said with certainty: "Because he basically forgot the lyrics during the whole process, but he still completed the performance very devotedly, and there was no feeling of jerkiness at all. It is not what ordinary people do.
It’s arrived.”
He thought about it and looked at Chi Jingyuan on the stage: "Is it Kyuhyun? I feel that the figure and voice are a bit similar."
Zheng Hengdon, on the other hand, made a very professional expression, nodded his head and commented seriously: "The performance and songs are very vivid, and the adaptation of the songs is very bold. Although there are basically few words, it is still very expressive.
She is very easy to do, especially the singing action, where she keeps her hands on her lower abdomen and does not move. No one of the younger generation of singers can do this anymore. Only men who really want to get divorced can do it. They should be at least in their thirties...
…”
At the end of the sentence, his expression changed, and he couldn't help but poke his head and asked curiously, "Isn't it really uncomfortable to pose like this?"
"Hahaha……"
Chi Jingyuan, who had been silent all this time, couldn't help but shake after hearing this.
"It's a bit like Hyori..."
"The high heels must be twenty centimeters, right?"
"The voice sounds definitely male. I think he must be an idol."
Each judge made a guess. Some were talkative and talked a lot, while others, like Wu Hyuk and Zion.
I was holding the microphone for a long time and couldn't say a word.
It's a bit embarrassing to let them show off their artistic skills by asking them to guess even though they clearly know that the person on the stage is Chi Jingyuan.
However, this kind of straightforward stiffness and coldness also had a contrasting effect on Europe and China. It was actually quite interesting to see them holding it in for a long time without letting out a fart.
"What do you think about IU xi?" After others talked, Liu Jae Suk specifically pointed to IU who didn't say much: "Looking at your expression, it feels like you know who it is. Have you ever heard this voice?"
"Indeed." Li Zhien nodded and stared at the silent man on the stage: "Although I specifically used my voice when singing, I can hear that the tone is great, and it is very similar to several songs I have often listened to recently.
the sound of."
"jinjia? Then who do you think it will be?"
"Maybe..." Li Zhien blinked, with a tentative look in his eyes: "Maybe, XO?"
"Ahhhhhh, XO!
The name is like a fan cheering crazily.
"XO? There are only a few people with this figure in XO, and their voices don't sound like them."
"It's impossible. XO's recent schedule is so busy, how can he have time to attend some music festival..."
"Ah, we are playing "Infinite Challenge" here. Look at PD Kim Tae-ho's expression changing."
"Hahaha……"
After a while of booing and another fuss, Liu Jae Suk finally started the final hosting: "Okay, then we will start to reveal our identities!"
Under his command, Chi Jingyuan took off the cumbersome gown that covered the outside, revealing the casual striped short-sleeves and trousers underneath. The hands and feet that were deliberately curled up inside were also stretched out, and the entire figure was revealed.
The feeling suddenly changed.
Under the expectant looks of all the judges and the close-up of the camera, he lowered his head and forcefully took off the uncomfortable big-faced cat hood, and his hair was caught by the elastic band of the mask.
With his messy hair rolled up and thrown around his forehead, Chi Jingyuan shook his head vigorously and then raised his head, smiling reluctantly in front of the camera, making a helpless expression.
"Ah ah ah, Yuan! It's really XO..."
"Ah jinjia, isn't it? Why did PD Jin Taeho invite this person here? It feels more surprising than JYP's participation."
After seeing that the last guest was Chi Jingyuan, all the judges reacted very well, with expressions of surprise and surprise on their faces, as if seeing Chi Jingyuan on the show was an incredible thing.
All actions and reactions are very face-giving.
"Wow, jinjia."
"Dafa!"
"I really can't guess."
Amid a burst of emotion, Liu Zaishi glanced at the judges' bench and immediately laughed, pointing at a few people in the back row and shouting: "Ah, why are you all standing up?"
After Chi Jingyuan took off his mask, the MCs, HAHA, Zheng Hengdon, and Huang Guangxi who were sitting in the back all stood up and looked at Chi Jingyuan on the stage eagerly:
"Ah, wow, it's really... Jingyuan!"
The three actors stood up and performed a performance. They were speechless. It was exactly the scene of fans meeting their idols. In the end, they were so excited that they could only wave and shout Chi Jingyuan's name. Several people followed him.
The look is very familiar.
Chi Jingyuan also admired the naturalness and ease with which these senior performers praised them, and waved to them with a smile.
"Kwang Hee, how do you feel about seeing this?" Yoo Jae Suk pointed at Huang Guang Hee, the host who has always been a self-proclaimed EXO fan.
"Ah... thank you so much." At this time, Huang Guangxi no longer had the playful smile on his face before, but instead looked a little serious and said with emotion from the bottom of his heart.
But as soon as the words came out, the people next to him laughed.
"Ah haha, no, what are you thanking? What has Jingyuan done that you should be so grateful for? Nothing has been done yet!"
"Ah, Jingyuan is here to attend the Song Festival, so we can use a dressing room together."
He looked at the stage with a greasy expression: "Yes, I am very happy to be able to participate in the show together, especially if we can be divided into a group, I will have no regrets even if the world ends."
As soon as he finished speaking, he stood up and started swaying in place like a monkey. He slapped his hands continuously on his body and danced his signature dance while singing loudly: "oh my my."
my~oh my my my~”
"Where's Wu Hyuk? How do you feel?"
Faced with Yoo Jae Suk's inquiry, Wu Hyuk, who couldn't say a word during the whole process, hesitated for a moment and then spoke intermittently: "Actually, I was wondering whether I should appear here."
"Hahaha……"
Chi Jingyuan lowered his head and laughed.
Wow, these guys are so generous.
"Okay, all participants will end publicly, applaud the last Yuan!"
"Whoa whoa……"
Chi Jingyuan's appearance is almost done here, and some interviews will need to be recorded later. The PD also stopped the recording and took a short break, and began to review some of the shots just taken.
After watching it for a while, I found that there were some problems with the previous shots. After everyone returned to their seats, they shot that section again and checked that everything was correct before continuing.
The next step is to group them into groups. The rules of the "Infinite Challenge Music Festival" are similar every year. Each MC partners with a group of guests, and then collaborates with each other to compose a song for the final concert.
"Each MC and guest will show their own style and strength to challenge in teams. Those who want to be his partner should stand behind him after the performance and make the final choice."
“However, due to DJ Park’s temporary absence this time, one of the groups will form a partnership with an MC and two guests. Since there are two different guests, this group needs to work together to compose and perform two songs in the song festival.
Different tracks.”
The recording started again. At the beginning, Liu Jae Suk introduced in detail some of the rules that had been changed due to the accident this time. Then he sighed to himself:
"Wow, I worked hard and racked my brains for every song in the last music festival. The pressure was really too much."
"Don't the MCs in that group also have to practice two songs? It must not be me!"
Regarding the rules decided by the program team, the guests and MCs also expressed some opinions one after another.
In fact, it is said to be a team challenge. Forming a team seems to be based on personal wishes. However, in fact, the program team has already divided almost all the combinations based on factors such as strength, popularity, suitability, and seniority.
.
After all, if the assignments are completely random, it will be easy for the seniority gap to be too large, wrong, and awkward combinations. Popular guests may also be less topical due to poor grouping, which will affect the effectiveness and ratings of the program.
Although it is a music festival, it is still a variety show after all, and everything must be aimed at the ratings and popularity of the show.
However, not all combinations have been confirmed, and there is still some space and room left for MCs and guests to play.
What's interesting is that during the team challenge, Yoo Jae Suk and Huang Guangxi performed "Roar" and "Addicted". The latter was from an idol background, but the former's stylish dance seemed to be professional.
Practiced.
However, even though Huang Guangxi licked Chi Jingyuan and SM crazily in front of the camera, and stated that he had longed for SM since he was a child and had a dream of having a son, he was still not assigned to Chi Jingyuan and was ruthlessly and cruelly rejected.
.
Finally, after a fierce and funny competition, all five groups were completed. As expected, Chi Kyung-won was assigned to the group with two guests, partnered by IU and Jung Hyung-don.
In fact, the program team has told him before that he will be paired with IU. This combination will create the greatest topic and popularity. One is the current TOP idol, and the other is the most popular female solo. After the show is broadcast,
It will definitely cause a big sensation, and the audience will definitely be very interested in the songs they collaborate on, and the boost to the ratings will be clear at a glance.
It's just that co-star MC Jung Hyung-don didn't expect it when he collapsed. To be honest, Chi Kyung-won really thought he would be with Hwang Kwang-hee at first, or else it would be Yoo Jae-seok.
But this is pretty good. For the three people in this group, although he and IU are not acquaintances, Jung Hyung Don is the one I am most familiar with among the MCs. I have met him several times before and he has a pretty good personality.
There are not so many restrictions when it comes to cooperation.
As for IU...
The content of this episode was recorded until midnight and finally ended. After getting the script for the next episode and informing the time, place and content of the next recording, everyone said goodbye to each other, and today's trip was concluded.
The recording of such a large-scale variety show is really tiring.
Sitting in the nanny's car returning to the dormitory, Chi Jingyuan looked out the window at the streets that had no smell of fireworks anymore, leaned back on the chair tiredly and thought to himself.
But if you don’t count the annoying and tiring scenes of reshooting back and forth, it’s actually quite interesting.
…
"What are you looking at so seriously?"
After asking again and getting no response, Pei Xiuzhi walked over with her bare feet on the floor.
When he arrived in front of the sofa, he raised his legs high, and his round and undressed thighs directly crossed the back of the sofa. He twisted his body and knelt on the soft cushion next to Chi Jingyuan with his legs. The seams between his knees and legs were aligned.
She looked at him and turned around to watch the program being broadcast on the TV.
""Sixteen", your company's talent show."
After being asked twice in a row, Chi Jingyuan deflected his gaze and glanced at Pei Xiuzhi, who was kneeling next to him. The long white legs were close at hand, and the two buttons on them were not fastened, and the collar on one side was still unfastened.
The snow-white T-shirt slipped off his shoulders, and he asked casually: "Can't you see?"
I just finished recording the first two episodes of "Infinite Challenge" in the early hours of this morning. Fortunately, there was no schedule in the morning. Chi Jingyuan went back to the dormitory and slept until noon, and then went on a few trips with the team in the afternoon.
I received another call from Pei Xiuzhi during dinner. After looking at today's itinerary, I made an appointment in the evening.
In fact, Bae Suzy made an appointment with him a few days ago, but EXO happened to be holding a concert overseas at that time. When she came back, she called him, thinking that she might have something to do with him.
It happened that we hadn't chatted together for a few days. After get off work, Chi Jingyuan came to the apartment for a date.
He had just finished chatting and took a shower. When he was sitting on the sofa watching TV and changing channels at will, he watched it as scheduled and suddenly remembered that today happened to be the day when the eighth episode of "Sixteen" was broadcast, and it was almost twelve o'clock right now.
It was live broadcast, so I simply tuned in to watch it.
"Oh, this is it."
As soon as she heard the name "sixteen", the trace of curiosity in Pei Xiuzhi's voice disappeared instantly, and she leaned on the back of the sofa: "What's so good about this?"
His tone was lazy and a little distant, and he clearly had no interest in this program at all.
This was obviously a program to select a new girl group to succeed her own group, so she didn't even bother to take a look at it.
Chi Jingyuan naturally knew why she was unhappy with the show, so he didn't say anything and glanced at her with a chuckle.
Pei Xiuzhi knelt down on the cushions of the sofa, her legs tightly together. Her long brown curly hair was a little messed up by the movement she just leaned down on, covering her entire face in pieces. Through the gaps, she could vaguely see
See fair skin and rosy red lips.
This person is really interesting. He just put on lipstick after taking a shower, but the rest of his body was plain.
But this color suits her quite well.
Seeing Chi Jingyuan's eyes turning to look at the TV again, Pei Xiuzhi couldn't help but also looked over. Without seeing clearly what was being played on the TV at this time, she chuckled: "You are watching so seriously, you are not watching
Um, what's that called...mina, right?"
"no."
Shaking his head, Chi Jingyuan looked at the TV and had no intention of explaining.
What he just watched was actually Zhou Ziyu's stage.
What was played in this episode was what Zhou Ziyu mentioned to him before, the guerrilla concert where she teamed up with Lin Nalian and Yu Dingyan to perform.
The VCR happened to be playing when they changed channels. Chi Jingyuan was a little casual at first and didn't take it seriously, but after seeing the stage performance of three people, he paused for a moment.
Because he was busy some time ago, he only watched the first three episodes of "Sixteen" since it started airing, and has not paid much attention since then.
Therefore, his impression of Zhou Ziyu's performance and level has always been what he saw when he was a judge, when his singing skills were poor and his stage performance was awkward, and he didn't know how to praise her.
But now I saw on TV that I was dancing MissA's classic song "HUSH" with two other teammates. She smiled brightly and lively on the stage, and from time to time she would give a beautiful wink to the camera. Zhou Zi enjoyed the stage performance very much.
Yu, Chi Jingyuan was actually a little silent for a moment.
Just a few days without paying attention to him, his previous impression has changed a lot. He seems to have become more proficient in flipping his hair. His sexy style of navel long sleeves and black shiny leather has also digested the surprise well.
Although it has only been a few months, this girl has really matured a lot.
The performance in life may not be so obvious, but the performance on stage, expression management, and changes in typhoons are very clear, and the progress is really great.
It was really a little different from what he imagined.
It can be seen that Zhou Ziyu must have really tried his best to make his debut. It is no wonder that in the past few days, he looked worried about gains and losses, and was extremely stressed.
Looking at the girl standing upright on the stage on the screen, Chi Jingyuan felt something in his heart. After a while, the footage of Zhou Ziyu's group on the TV ended, and the next group came on stage to perform. Although he saw Ming Jingnan's face in it,
It's just that he is not as serious as before.
However, Pei Xiuzhi seemed to see that Chi Jingyuan was quite interested in "Sixteen", so she didn't interrupt anymore and watched it together.
It wasn't until the commercial break that she felt that the kneeling posture was a little uncomfortable, so she stretched out her white thighs and stretched herself comfortably. Then, while arranging her messed up hair, she stretched her calves
He came over and gently poked Chi Jingyuan with his toes: "Have you paid attention to the casting of several TV series that are being prepared in the industry recently?"
"Which one are you talking about?" Chi Jingyuan felt a little itchy after being poked by his toes. He turned to look at Pei Xiuzhi, and slowly looked up, starting from his toes and moving forward along the line of his legs until he was blocked by the hem of his shirt.
The place to live came to an abrupt end.
""Random Attachment""
Pei Xiuzhi tied her scattered hair together as if she wanted to put it into a braid. However, she couldn't find the hair tie, but her smooth neck and shoulders were exposed. Although she didn't look here, she replied naturally: "That's the one for
It is a TV series that will be broadcast simultaneously in China and South Korea and has been completely filmed before it is scheduled to be broadcast."
Hearing this keyword, Chi Jingyuan blinked and was stunned:
"It was filmed in advance again and broadcast simultaneously in China and South Korea?"
