The melody of Blackpink's new song "Playing with Fire", which has been very popular in the past two days, rang in the room. Chi Jingyuan looked like he was enjoying it, swaying around to the melody. He didn't know whether he was covering the dance or moving his body to warm up.
Later, when the chorus reached the climax, he opened his voice and sang along.
Chi Jingyuan didn't pay much attention to blackpink before, so he didn't listen to this song just after it was released, but he tried to listen to it the next day when he checked the music charts and saw that "Playing with Fire" ranked very well.
, I didn’t expect to like it quite a lot.
I also went to watch the MV later...based on my objective aesthetics, both Kim Ji Soo and Kim Ji Ni look pretty good in it.
It’s indeed the peak season for the Kpop music industry. Ji Kyung Won likes several recent songs, including Blackpink’s “Playing with Fire”, Taeyeon’s “11:11”, and their own “really really”
Hmm..."TT" also counts.
Zheng Eunchi next to him glanced at Chi Jingyuan with some disdain, but he swayed to the music very honestly, and even opened his voice during the second chorus and sang with him.
Obviously, she is quite familiar with this song.
After listening to two songs to warm up, and with the help of the air conditioner, the temperature also came up. Chi Jingyuan stretched out and sat on the sofa comfortably.
"The newcomers now are really amazing..."
Jung Eunji is obviously very familiar with Blackpink's recent achievements, and he couldn't help but sigh when faced with the aggressive new girl group.
"The quality of their two single albums after their debut is indeed very high." Ji Jingyuan nodded with approval: "YG is still good at music... and Big Bang is about to enlist in the army, YG is obviously preparing to focus on
Blackpink is on it.”
"Is it ready over there?"
"It's almost time. We will be notified." Chi Jingyuan checked the time and picked up the music score from the side: "Let's check it again first."
The recording of "Stay with Me" was not done here, but in a professional recording studio at the top of the company. At this time, the PD sent by the "Ghost" crew was leading people to set up photography equipment there.
This is part of the promotion plan of "Goblin". The entire recording process of this OST will be filmed. Later, the footage will be cut together with some cuts from the "Goblin" drama. It will be used as the MV for "stay with me".
It will be released simultaneously with the broadcast of the TV series on December 2.
At this time, the other side was still busy, while Chi Jingyuan and the others were waiting here to make preparations.
As he was talking, his phone suddenly rang. Seeing that it was his manager An Chengyuan, Chi Jingyuan answered the call directly.
"What's wrong, brother?"
"Inkigayo" on the 13th? Have you communicated with JYP?
"okay, I get it."
After saying a few words quickly, he hung up the phone. Facing Zheng Eunji's confused look, Chi Jingyuan explained by the way: "Our subway song has recently received several invitations to perform on singing stages. Now
The company has confirmed that it will build a performance stage.”
""really really"? What day?"
""Inkigayo" on the 13th." Chi Jingyuan said casually, lowering his head and reading the score.
Although "really really" became very popular after it was released, it has not yet had a live stage because of the subway song. The MV and choreography are so cool, but it has not even been played live, which has long made countless fans dissatisfied.
.
Of course, the popularity of singing programs on several TV stations is noticed. Last week, they sent out many performance invitations. After considering it, SM chose SBS's "Inkigayo" to perform.
One stage is enough for now. After all, it is just a subway song, and it is a collaboration between four people. Twice is so busy right now. Chi Jingyuan has a lot of things on his own and is not very good at coordinating time... There will definitely be a few more by the end of the year.
A special stage.
"Inkigayo on the 13th?" Zheng Eunchi blinked when he heard this date: "What a coincidence? I'm going to go that day too!"
Hearing this, Chi Jingyuan looked over strangely: "Didn't you Apink finish singing songs a long time ago? Are you back again?"
"Ani, it's not Apink." Zheng Eunji shook his head: "It's a special project called 'Music Crush' that SBS recently launched. Each group will find idols from several girl groups to collaborate on a song."
"I collaborated on a song with Ben Xi and Twice's Jihyo. I performed on stage for two weeks on "Inkigayo". The 13th was the last time."
"What's it called? Has the sound source been released?"
"It's called "The Reason I Become Beautiful" and it was posted two days ago."
"oh……"
Chi Jingyuan paused for a moment and nodded slightly.
He was very sensible and didn't ask how the song performed.
He has been releasing songs for several days, and he has frequently hit the charts these days, but he has never heard of this song, which already explains one thing or two...
Moreover, a question suddenly arose in his mind.
Are any of these three pretty?
No wonder he has never heard of it, so the title of the song doesn't make sense.
"Your cooperation resources are really sufficient."
Chi Jingyuan curled his lips and asked maliciously: "I have never seen the other people in Apink, such as Chulongxi and Xia Rong going out for activities... You are the only one wandering around outside every day, you guys
Aren’t the members jealous of you? Have they ganged up to bully you or something?”
This year, Jung Eun Ji has a lot of resources besides his solo work. Recently, in addition to this and Goblin's OST, there is also a song that featured MC Dream some time ago that is on the list.
"Go to hell!"
Obviously very dissatisfied with this speculation, Zheng Eunji rolled his eyes directly: "If you want to bully, you and all the other EXO members should unite to bully you."
Compared with other members of Apink, her personal development prospects are indeed broader, and her resources are much more than other members... However, the Apink members have a very good relationship with each other, and they are one of the few women's groups that have a relatively harmonious relationship, so
Not that much bullshit.
Moreover... none of these collaborations from Xiba are popular. Each one is more aggressive than the other. Why are you jealous?
"Tch, I'm caring about you!"
Chi Jingyuan shook his head humbly, and immediately shrank when he saw the unkind look from the other party, and changed the topic:
"Okay, let's practice quickly, we're going to record soon."
…………
Although Zheng Eunji has a lot of shortcomings in Ji Jingyuan's eyes, her singing skills are very good among female idols. At that time, Chi Jingyuan chose to work with her. In addition to having a good relationship, she also took this important consideration into consideration.
s reason.
And she obviously attaches great importance to this OST. Her singing skills and emotional investment can be seen from the fact that she has practiced it many times in private.
Chi Jingyuan, on the other hand, did not give in too much. The two of them cooperated very well with various harmonies. After recording a few times, Chi Jingyuan, the producer, felt that he was almost there, and the progress was surprisingly fast.
Even because the recording went so smoothly, the PD who shot the MV felt that the weight was not enough, so he asked the two of them to stand in front of the microphone and pretend to sing a few more times.
After "stay with me" ended, Jung Eun-ji left first, and Ji Kyung-won finished recording another OST "beautiful" alone.
Coupled with the already arranged post-production, the OST work he received for "Goblin" this time is finally completed.
The next step is to wait for the TV series to be officially released and see the audience's response and evaluation.
…
After the recording work was completed in the morning, Chi Jingyuan did not leave the company. After having a meal at noon, he returned to EXO's practice room.
Now that we have entered November, there is not much time left before the major award ceremonies at the end of the year. EXO will start preparing for stage performances at the next few award ceremonies.
Large award shows like MMA and MAMA attract a lot of attention and attention every year. What interests the audience most besides the awards is the stage, which is a very important exposure opportunity for every idol.
Although there is no shortage of exposure for EXO, today's TOP group is also the boy group with the highest probability of winning awards. Their performances must be an important part of the awards ceremony. The quality of the stage, visual effects and attentiveness are definitely
It will be expected and scrutinized by all fans and the public. If you are not careful, it can easily affect word-of-mouth and evaluation, so it is a very important task and requires very careful preparation.
At this time, everyone in EXO is gathered in the practice room, but the managers and teachers haven't come yet. They are all discussing another matter at the moment.
"These two people... tsk tsk, is this considered a love affair within the company?"
"I'm not interested in Min, can you expose Suzy?"
Chi Jingyuan looked at the news on his mobile phone and heard the discussions of several members nearby.
The news broke to the media just while we were having dinner that Min, a member of the girl group MISS A, and G.Soul, who is also under JYP, were in a relationship. After seeing it, several of them started discussing it.
It stands to reason that when an idol exposes his relationship, either fans will criticize him or passers-by will give blessings to the show. However, after Chi Jingyuan read the online comments for a while, the most common comments were these two:
'Who is Min?'
‘Who is G.Soul?’
The most people are actually asking where these two people came from...
Of course Chi Jingyuan knows these two people. As a member of MissA, Min should be relatively well-known, but compared to Bae Suzy, as another local member, she really has no sense of presence, not even as good as the two Xiaguo members.
member.
As for G.Soul, he is the solo singer launched by JYP at the beginning of last year. Before his debut, everyone from the boss to the artist came forward to promote it. There were many press releases about "trainees with more than ten years of experience" and "geniuses".
It makes people think that another new monster like Rain has arrived.
As a result, Chi Jingyuan was thrown into the street right after his debut, and we haven't heard much from Chi Jingyuan since then... The time when he was most famous was before he debuted.
Unexpectedly, these two JYP artists actually started a romance within the agency.
It's just that the love affair exposure, which is the biggest thing for idols besides quitting the group, is not very popular. There was no disturbance for an hour or two after the news came out, and it was not even a hot search. Thinking of the grand occasion on the first day of 2014, comparison
It really makes people feel a little sad and emotional.
As idols, there is a huge difference between being popular and not being popular.
"The heat doesn't feel very high."
Chi Jingyuan checked the messages for a while and said casually.
"You don't think it's hot enough? Why don't you try to expose your relationship?"
Wu Shixun next to him immediately laughed strangely when he heard it. He came over in a low voice and gave an idea in a low voice: "'EXO. Yuan and Twice. Mina are in love'. This news headline will definitely satisfy you when it comes out. Don't say D
I think Naver is going to be down."
"Hey Yigu..." he said, looking up with his mouth open: "Suddenly I'm really looking forward to that scene."
"Don't tell me yet..."
Chi Jingyuan did not make any complaints as Wu Shixun expected. Instead, he blinked and looked a little moved: "I really thought about this."
"ah?"
This statement made Wu Shixun a little dumbfounded. He hurriedly came over and asked impatiently: "Are you serious?"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! As the backbone of EXO, Ji Kyung-won is now three men and one man. If he exposes his relationship, it will cause unimaginable harm to the entire group, SM and even Kpop.
Influence.
"I just thought about it, but of course it's not possible now."
After giving him a contemptuous look, Chi Jingyuan curled his lips.
After reading so many news about love relationships, seeing public displays of affection, and seeing people break up at the speed of light within half a month, Chi Jingyuan has really imagined and imagined several times what it would be like if his relationship was exposed.
How will the outside world react when the time comes?
I also considered whether I should let out some news at that time.
But it's definitely not now. The impact of this kind of thing on him may not be as big as imagined, but as a woman, Mina can probably quit the group directly.
"Ah……"
Wu Shixun, who was in a false alarm, gritted his teeth and screamed strangely.
Just when he was about to say something, the door to the practice room was pushed open, and manager An Chengyuan walked in with several familiar choreographers and teachers responsible for stage effects.
The manager clapped his hands to attract everyone's attention. Chi Jingyuan and Wu Shixun stopped chatting and stood up together with the other members and gathered around.
An Chengyuan didn't say much, and after saying hello, he went straight to the topic: "...there have been three large award ceremonies recently, namely AAA on the 16th, MMA on the 19th, and MMA on the 2nd next month.
MAMA."
"As for AAA, the company has already sent people to see the scene. Because it is the first time it is held and it is not very mature yet, the venue, equipment and lighting are limited, so all artists including us will not perform special stages.
For a normal performance, the repertoire we perform at AAA is "Monster" and "LOTTO"
With that said, he looked at Chi Jingyuan and asked, "By the way, Jingyuan, are you sure you can come here in the second half, right?"
"should be no problem."
After thinking about it, Chi Jingyuan nodded: "As long as there is no serious traffic jam."
Because graduation is approaching, he has to go back to school every few days to stay for a while, and he has something to do at school on the day AAA is held on the 16th, so he has to come a little later.
"That's fine. If you really can't make it, you can only perform on the eight-person stage." An Chengyuan nodded, without forcing it, and thoughtfully gave him a plan B.
"AAA is not included. The stages of the other two games need to be treated very carefully. The song performances and the stage design company have also been arranged."
Back to the topic, An Chengyuan continued: "First of all, MMA. Our XO stage is arranged before the awards of the last three awards. It is also the last stage performance of the whole show. Including the opening and closing, it has a total duration of ten minutes.
.”
"The stage this time is divided into three stages. The second stage is Kai and Sehun's solo dance. The closing performance of the third stage is "Monster". This is a normal performance. It's okay. The focus is on the first stage."
"This stage will adopt the form of skewering. Our nine members will be divided into 2223 groups. Each group will bring four backup dancers to perform separately from the first regular album "XOXO" in 2013 to the second regular album "EXO-L" in 2015.
The four title songs are "Roar", "Addicted", "Call Me Baby" and "Boy with Luv", and each song is a thirty-second excerpt of the main song and chorus."
"Now let's talk about the groups. Kai and Xiumin are in the first group. You guys are Roaring "Roaring""
"The second group is D.O. and suho."
"..."
"...Finally, Jingyuan, you, Chanyeol, and Baekhyun will perform "Boy with Luv" together."
