Hearing these words, and especially the name of their own group, the nine members of ice suddenly became quiet, and all their attention was focused. Some people just looked over openly, and some people lowered their heads and pretended to eat.
While eating, he secretly pricked up his ears.
However, Chi Jingyuan didn't pay much attention to them. He was a little unresponsive to what Park Zhenying suddenly mentioned.
"Style? Is there something wrong with the style? Brother, you don't want to change it to that sweet and cool style, do you? It feels quite boring, and the workload is huge..."
"Does the arrangement still need to be improved? Isn't it just an ordinary song? The demo I sent you before is actually a finished product in all aspects. Even if it is modified, it will be slightly improved at most, and if it is really up to the
If it’s not required, actually…”
Park Zhenying over there seemed to have said something rather sudden, which made Chi Jingyuan's tone a little weird. Ice and others cheered up. They blinked and looked at each other.
Are you talking about our return next time?
Chi Jingyuan wrote a song for us?
Although some girls' mouths were still stained with some soup, no one cared about it. Appropriate speculation and high curiosity could be clearly seen in the shining eyes of several people.
However, what "sweet cool style" means is quite boring...
Some people glanced over there dissatisfied.
"Let me take a look at my recent words..." When Chi Jingyuan said this, Park Jae-hyun next to him took out his mobile phone in a tacit understanding, switched to the memo schedule interface, and placed it next to Chi Jingyuan.
.
Chi Jingyuan flipped up and down the schedule with his right hand, glanced at it twice and said to the phone: "The schedule is quite full... Okay, I get it... I think you guys still like the song "Come on"
Do you like it? Haha, I’m okay.”
"…Goodbye then."
After saying goodbye, Chi Jingyuan hung up the phone. Park Jae-hyun next to him saw this and asked in a low voice: "What's wrong?"
"No, I talked about the demo song I sent to jyp before, and put forward some ideas. I want me to revise it and improve it." Chi Jingyuan breathed out, shook his head slightly, and whispered softly.
It's about the song "Come on" that I sent to jyp before. Originally, Chi Jingyuan sent it to the other party and didn't care about it. I thought it was an ordinary song and I didn't need to pay too much attention to it. The style of ice's next comeback has not yet been determined.
Maybe people will use it or not. Unexpectedly, after not caring for a while, I suddenly received a call from this guy. I discussed the style, lyrics, arrangement and other things of this song with him seriously. I also wanted to
Let Chi Jingyuan continue to refine the original demo.
It feels like JYP's emphasis on this song has suddenly increased a lot, unexpectedly high, and the attitude is not like an ordinary song.
It’s a song that both SM and Chi Jingyuan disdain, so it won’t be treasured by them...
"Oh." Park Jae-hyun didn't pay much attention when he heard that it was about composition. He knew that Chi Jingyuan would make his own decision on such a professional issue, so he nodded and stopped asking, stood up and went to the water dispenser next to him.
Receive water.
After hanging up the phone, Chi Jingyuan immediately felt the eager gaze from the side, but he didn't show it. He put down the phone and lowered his head to finish the last few mouthfuls of food. At the same time, he took the hand from Park Jae-hyun who came back.
He took two sips from the glass of water that came over and wiped his mouth, looking very calm and nothing happened.
After a while, the people over there might really be unable to bear it anymore. It just so happened that the manager Jin Xiangzhong was not here at the moment. After a while of whispering, there was the sound of someone pulling up a stool and getting up. After a while, Chi Jingyuan felt something.
The two people tiptoed to their side.
When he looked up, he saw that the two people sent over were the sarcastic Yu Dingyan and the somewhat reluctant Zhou Ziyu. Everyone within ice already knew these two people, especially Zhou Ziyu and Chi Jingyuan who were the most familiar.
Najing Nan looks soft and soft, and sometimes she looks a little silly when she smiles. I didn't expect to hide it so well?
Today, Zhou Ziyu is wearing a dark green striped sweater that looks very warm, but it is not fashionable enough for an idol. Her lower body is dark jeans that are bulging, and I don’t know if they are lined with long johns or something like that.
Make the entire lower body line appear somewhat plump.
People who don't know say she practices sports, but there's actually nothing wrong with her.
"What's wrong?"
Chi Jingyuan raised his head and looked at the two familiar people, asking questions knowingly.
"Well, it's just..." Zhou Ziyu was obviously unprepared when the members sent her here. Her big round eyes were full of innocence, and her words were a bit deceitful.
"Okay, sit down." Chi Jingyuan smiled, and of course he wouldn't make it difficult for them. He pointed to the small sofa next to him. After the two of them sat down, he raised his head and glanced at the people over there, looking down.
He opened the file on his mobile phone and gave a brief introduction: "Zhenying brother invited me to write a song some time ago. It seems that it will be included in your next album..."
"Qingjia? Has the company started planning our next comeback? When will it be?" Yu Dingyan's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he couldn't help but ask questions in quick succession, and a commotion instantly broke out not far away.
This is how newcomers are, they are all looking forward to their next comeback.
"He didn't say that much, but it seemed that at that time he was just asking for a song, and he hadn't really started planning his comeback yet."
Chi Jingyuan said a few words casually, and finally glanced at the people who were looking at him: "I'm not from jyp, I don't know the specifics... and it's just a very ordinary song. Can it be done by then?"
I don’t know yet whether it will be included in the album.”
"Oh." Yu Dingyan and Zhou Ziyu nodded slightly when they heard this.
Knowing that the company has plans to bring them back is already great news, enough to keep them talking for days.
The two sat for two minutes, quietly asked Chi Jingyuan a few more curious questions, then stood up and prepared to leave, going back to share and discuss the news they had just heard with their teammates.
"By the way, have you recovered from your cold?" After Zhou Ziyu stood up, he suddenly looked up and asked in Chinese.
In fact, this girl was not in very good condition today. She didn't look energetic in the waiting room before recording, and she didn't show much during recording. She would only show off when the camera cueed her down, and other times.
He looked a little sluggish standing there.
"..." When Zhou Ziyu, who was about to leave, heard this, his eyelashes trembled slightly, his dark eyes lit up, and he turned to look at Chi Jingyuan. But Yu Dingyan next to him could only blink and apologize because he didn't understand.
"I'm not completely healed yet, but I'm already taking medicine." The little girl's voice softened significantly.
"Do you still know how to take medicine?"
"..." The little emotion that had just emerged immediately disappeared. The girl pursed her lips and turned away directly, leaving only a full-lined back for him.
…
After a short break after dinner, we started recording again. The performance of ice's title song "Elegant" had actually been recorded once before, but after watching it, their manager felt that the effect was not good and the members made mistakes, so
I decided to record it again.
The MC and the guests returned to their seats, and after the dance was over, the staff took advantage of the downtime to put up a row of stools, and everyone sat on them, and then entered the next stage.
"It is an inevitable part for new idols. You can prepare to show your charm..." Chi Jingyuan sat on a stool, reading the script, and looked up from time to time: "First of all, the first duel, the end of the elegant dance part.
Those! The specific rules are..."
In fact, you just listen to the music clips that are playing. Those who can dance stand up and go to the front to cover a section. The one who can dance the most and dances best will get a reward title. It is mainly to show the dancing level and appearance of the guests.
.
"Eh~" At this time, defconn interjected: "I remember this link, Jingyuan and xo seemed to have done it when you came here before? Who was the best dancer at that time?"
"Ah?" Chi Jingyuan was stunned when asked: "I forgot."
Upon hearing this, defconn seemed to have caught something, and looked at him with an expression of indignation: "You have no impression of xo's previous performance on "Zhou Ou"?"
"Of course I have an impression. I remember that the two MCs at that time were Brother Defconn and Brother Hengdon." Chi Jingyuan waved his hands quickly and tried to argue.
"Hahaha..." The girl next to her laughed immediately.
"Don't remember the rest?" defconn looked at him unkindly.
"Because it's too early..." Chi Jingyuan smiled bitterly, but suddenly he regained his energy and remembered something: "By the way, I still remember that we ranked the appearance of the team and performed super powers.
Category."
"Why do you remember this?"
"Because I was first in the first one, and the second one without a physical performance was so embarrassing that I can't forget it even if I want to."
"Do you remember anything else? For example, when did you first come to our "Zhou Ou" in 2012 or 2013?" defconn also wanted to find fault with Chi Jingyuan, but Chi Jingyuan was completely
He didn't answer, just lowered his head and looked at the script: "Then we'll start right away, please play the music!"
Who still remembers this kind of thing?
"Hahaha..." Seeing him avoiding the fight, everyone laughed. Ice laughed twice, and music started playing on the speakers prepared by the program team.
"After thousands of twists and turns, we will finally reach the end."
"Just like that, I become the only person beside you."
The sound was so loud that many people were startled. After quickly realizing which song it was, Hirai Momo stood up from her chair, strode to the front and started dancing seamlessly.
"call me baby"
Chi Jingyuan recognized the first two notes as soon as he heard them. He also stood up, looked at Hirai Momo cover with a smile, and clapped gently at the same time.
In fact, she is not very conspicuous in ice, but her dancing is indeed quite good, especially in the male group dance "call me baby". The movement standards are obviously specially practiced, and the intensity is also very good. It is pleasing to the eye and has several signs.
The sexual crotch movements are also very tasteful, not inferior to some people in EXO.
She also enjoyed dancing and it was obvious that she really liked this song. This was not the first time that Chi Jingyuan saw her cover this song.
While Hirai Momo danced, Nai Minami, Minatozaki Saka, and Park Jihyo who were sitting on the stool behind them, although they did not go to the front, stood up and danced together. Nai Minami who was closest stood up.
He moved his last two feet outward and stood in a habitual figure-eight posture, swaying his shoulders and imitating it with a smile. He looked a little cute.
"Jingyuan, this is your song." He had heard of EXO's hit song "defconn" before. He looked at Chi Jingyuan excitedly, then pulled him forward and pushed him forward.
Of course, Chi Jingyuan couldn't refuse at this time. He walked up to Hirai Momo and seamlessly joined the playing accompaniment. He smiled and danced with her.
"call me babyba~call me baby."
"call me babyba~call me baby."
Although they had not rehearsed at all, the two people's dances were uniform. Because they wanted to show off the guests, Chi Jingyuan did not do too much, and the girl Hirai Momo looked a little embarrassed when she saw Chi Jingyuan coming up.
But he seemed a little more excited.
There was an interactive part in the middle, and the two of them did not communicate. Chi Jingyuan walked directly behind her, and the two interacted with each other in a tacit understanding, perfectly restoring EXO's original choreography. The ice members cheered and applauded.
After a while, five or six people stood up and rushed to the front and jumped together, and the atmosphere suddenly became lively.
After "call me baby" ended, other songs played, and Chi Jingyuan stepped back. The ice group had obviously prepared specially, and they probably often danced to popular songs by male and female groups. There were people in every song.
When they came out, they all danced very well.
The program crew obviously did not intend to let such a powerful person like Chi Jingyuan stand aside as an audience. At the end, they played "boy with luv". As soon as this song started playing, Najing Minami and Heijing Momo rushed together.
Everyone went out to follow, and everyone seemed to be able to dance to this song. After a while, even Lin Nalian stood up and started dancing together.
But Chi Jingyuan didn't need defconn to push him this time, he just walked in and stood next to Mingjing Nan casually, while Ice danced for a while.
Next to me, when Minami Minami was covering several other songs and dancing, she felt that her movements were a little stiff and her body had a funny feeling. However, when she danced "boy with luv", this feeling suddenly disappeared.
He was very coordinated, and he was very agile when doing the iconic movements such as patting himself up and down with his left and right hands, and raising his legs high. He even took the time to glance aside and smiled happily.
This session is much more lively.
…
"Today is great. It's the first time that a contemporary MC can achieve this kind of effect. It's really great... We will contact SM and your manager about the next recording."
"I understand, brother, I'll leave first." After the meeting, Chi Jingyuan waved goodbye to the "Zhou Ou" program team, put on his bag and left the office with Park Jae-hyun.
The recording lasted until around nine o'clock in the evening. Ice left early as a guest. They had other variety shows to catch up with later, but Chi Jingyuan naturally stayed and held a meeting with the program team.
It has been communicated before that Chi Jingyuan, as the substitute MC, will record a total of three issues of "Idol of the Week", in addition to ice's guests, there will also be a Christmas girl group special, and a year-end summary special, one of which will invite several girl groups
The members came to record together. One is that all the MCs will appear in several years. To summarize this year, the more important specials at the end of the year have been excluded.
Originally, these two episodes would be recorded a little later, but now the program team has adjusted the recording time, and all work will be completed before officially joining the group on the 15th, so that it will not interfere with his official work.
After returning to the dormitory at night, he was about to go to bed when he received a "smiley face" text message from Najing Minami.
"Are you off work?"
"Not yet. There is a radio station to be recorded later. We are in the lounge right now, and several other members are sleepy and dozing off."
Ice is still working so late. They have to record for an hour or two at any radio station. When they get back to the dormitory, it’s almost midnight. It feels like they are even busier than EXO.
Obviously, the experience of recording a program together today made the girl a little excited. She was not very sleepy at this time and she took the initiative to send a message. Chi Jingyuan, who happened to be fine, started chatting with her. After saying a few words, he suddenly remembered
, asked curiously: "Why did your company's cody put such heavy blush on you?"
This time it seemed that she was asked, and it took a while for her to reply.
"Hmm... doesn't it look good?"
"..." Chi Jingyuan didn't know how to answer, so he was silent for a few seconds and then sent an ellipsis.
You don’t think it looks good, right? With today’s red look and heavy blush, I would probably look like a gagman if I were someone else.
"Why don't you say anything... Actually, I think it's quite strange, but Cody Ernie said it suits our style very well, and it can be more easily noticed by the audience in front of the camera."
Chi Jingyuan was stunned when he saw what Ming Jingnan said.
Let’s not talk about style or not. Looking at it this way, what Cody said is actually correct. I really saw you at a glance. Sister Cody really has great ideas.
All I can say is that it is worthy of JYP, there is a reason for Frappuccino.
…
On December 4th, SM Entertainment officially announced the news about EXO's winter special this year. It was confirmed that EXO will officially return with the winter album "Sing for You" on December 10th. It also released the first version of the nine-person combined and solo album.
promotional photos.
In fact, some materials have been released through other channels before, but this time the company's announcement immediately aroused cheers from fans and the attention of passers-by.
Through the accumulation of fame in the past few years, from "December Miracle", to "Let It Be", to this year's "Sing for You", EXO's purely lyrical winter special released every year has become one of their
At the same time, due to their continuous efforts this year, especially this year's explosion, their sound source reputation has also changed a lot.
At this time, XO no longer belongs to the ranks of ordinary 'boy bands' or 'noisy boy bands not worthy of singing lyric' in the hearts of the people, but has begun to move towards Big Bang's 'no matter lyrical or pop, as long as the song is released, people will listen to it'
There is no difference between listening or not, just listening more and listening less.
Although there is still a lot of gap between them and Big Bang in terms of music reputation, at least they are already on this path, which is an extremely pioneering feat for a boy band.
At the same time as the public news, SM also announced that EXO will hold a special comeback event on the v app on December 10th and broadcast the entire event live, start screening for attendance, and a series of other promotional activities, which aroused the enthusiasm of fans.
and attention, there are already many people shouting below to open the pre-sale channel.
While many Alis were clamoring outside to put out more materials, Chi Jingyuan came to the KBS building alone.
