Chapter 345 New Year Song(1/2)
"Have you been affected in any way by being in JYP?"
Because Chi Jingyuan is usually very busy, Zhou Ziyu usually takes the initiative to send messages to the two of them. If the other party sees it and happens to be free, he will reply. If he is working, he may see the reply after a while.
Or maybe I was too tired or too late to go back.
It was quite rare for Chi Jingyuan to take the initiative to send a message. Zhou Ziyu was secretly happy when she saw the name of the sender, but what the other party said made her a little confused.
What does it mean to be unaffected even in JYP?
She hesitated for a moment, then quickly tapped the screen to reply without much thought:
"No, what's the impact?"
After sending the message, Zhou Ziyu couldn't help but stare at her phone in a daze. After being quiet for a few seconds, she suddenly remembered something.
My friend Kong Xue seemed to have told her once while eating, saying that several Xia Guo trainees she knew from other companies were not in a very good situation recently. Some of them had a decline in their salary in the company, and some were originally good.
Some hoped to join the debut group but were taken out again, and some were kicked out of the company directly. They either gave up and returned to their country or had no choice but to start over with another company.
And I heard from her that the reason why it is like this now is due to the continuous withdrawal of EXO Xiaguo members. Some small companies are worried after seeing the current situation of EXO and the fact that SM is also helpless, fearing that it will be difficult to cultivate them.
The idol group that was released suddenly had people running away.
They are not a big company like SM. For many small entertainment companies, running an idol group already requires all their energy, connections, and resources. Once someone quits, the blow to the group and the company will be unbearable.
At that time, Kong Xue swore to her that the trainees were implicated because of the XO people, and he also complained a few words in a somewhat exaggerated and complaining tone. Zhou Ziyu was quite impressed by this, but maybe just now
I was a little surprised to see the news about Chi Jingyuan, and my mind went blank for a while without thinking about that.
Was he worried about whether I would be affected by this trend?
Suddenly, Zhou Ziyu came to his senses and understood what Chi Jingyuan's text message meant.
The dissatisfaction that I had been holding in my heart because the other party always ignored me suddenly disappeared without a trace. A warm current suddenly surged from my chest to my mind, hanging on the brows and sticking to the corners of my mouth.
He blinked wildly, and his slightly pursed mouth curled up involuntarily, which looked very nice.
She directly picked up her phone and wanted to send another message, saying something like, 'I know what it means,' or 'No impact, thank you for your concern.' It didn't matter what it was, as long as she could chat with the other person for a while.
.
But as soon as she picked up her phone and typed a few words, Chi Jingyuan's reply came over:
"That's enough, I'm going to film."
A very clear and concise sentence showed that the other party was specifically concerned about her current situation.
Seeing this text message, Zhou Ziyu, who was typing quickly with great interest, suddenly stopped, opened his mouth, and then rolled back all the words he had just entered.
Zhou Ziyu is very familiar with this format of reply, which means that the other party has started to work. Unless there is something urgent, the other party will not pay attention to anything she sends, or it will take a long time to reply.
She was just a little touched in her heart, but she was a little unwilling to end the communication like this. After hesitating for a while, she entered a few more words and sent it.
"How is Jingyuan Xi doing lately? Are you okay?"
Even though she knew that the other party might not reply at work, she still often checked her phone to see if she had received a reply when she was taking a break after practice in the afternoon. She was so anxious that she couldn't settle down.
It was not until almost ten o'clock in the evening that Chi Jingyuan's message finally came back:
"That's it."
…………
On November 7, except for Ji Jingyuan, the five members of EXO-K hurriedly got on the plane after attending the Lotte Family concert, and started the flight to Mexico with the team, preparing to go there to participate in the upcoming "
Music Bank-Mexico Special".
In order to promote Kpop overseas and expand its influence, both the TV station and the artists have done their best. The nearly forty-hour round trip flight alone is really not something that ordinary people can handle, especially for someone like Chi Jingyuan.
For people who are afraid of heights and hate flying, this is even more of a torture.
The key point is that there was no other supporting itinerary when I went to Mexico. I flew for more than ten hours and then went to the rehearsal after landing. After recording, I immediately sat back for more than ten hours without any rest time in between.
It's really hard work.
When they were taking off, Chi Jingyuan, who was absent from the trip due to filming, couldn't help but glance at the ceiling. His sight seemed to penetrate the entire building to the sky, and saw the flight sailing in the sea of clouds.
He sincerely wished the other five members of Team K a safe journey.
I don't know why my mood suddenly improved.
The seventh and eighth episodes of "Misaeng" will also be officially released on November 7th and 8th.
The 20-episode "Wei Sheng" is now almost halfway through, and the plot is now getting better. After a period of hard work, and with the help of the section chief or colleagues, Zhang Keli has faded away.
The youthfulness and confusion he felt when he first entered the company have grown significantly. His talent has gradually emerged when the third sales team is handling work, and he has shown a completely different charm from the first few episodes.
Watching Zhang Klai, who comes from a poor family, grow up step by step from being ignored by others and out of place in the workplace, it gives the audience an unparalleled sense of empathy, especially for many white-collar workers who have similar experiences.
The ratings figures were quickly calculated. As expected, the ratings of the seventh episode stopped the downward trend of the previous episode and rebounded to 5.6%. The eighth episode reached a new high, reaching 5.9% and starting to hit 6%.
mark.
The show has already received such gratifying ratings less than halfway through the broadcast. According to this momentum, it is very likely to break through the 10% figure at the end, which is extremely difficult for cable television stations.
At this time, there is no longer a need for the crew or the leading actors like Chi Jingyuan to work hard for promotion. Netizens who like the drama "Misheng" have all started to spontaneously get along with others. You can see this everywhere on the Internet.
The discussion, popularity and praise of this drama are amazing.
Under such circumstances, the crew naturally worked hard while the iron was hot, as if they had been injected with chicken blood, and the atmosphere during filming every day was very good.
After the five members of Team K finally returned to the peninsula from Mexico after a long journey, without even having a day's rest, 10 members of EXO gathered together and flew directly to Neon with the company's team, preparing to start the upcoming three consecutive days.
Concert in Fukuoka.
When Chi Jingyuan saw several people from EXO-K listless and wilted on the plane, he felt really lucky. They were all like this after this trip, and it would be even more unnecessary if he went there too.
said.
The flight from Peninsula to Neon was not that far. They spent an hour or two reading textbooks easily. After getting off the plane, they got on the bus that they had been waiting for for a long time. They returned to the hotel to freshen up before going to the performance.
The venues have begun to hold performances and rehearsals.
After Chi Jingyuan arrived here, he observed and found that the fans on Neon's side did not seem to be affected by the continuous withdrawal of EXO members from the group. Everything was no different from when they opened the show case in the first half of the year. It was still the same.
So enthusiastic.
It may be because Luhan or Tao are not well-known and popular here, or it may be other reasons. It seems to Chi Jingyuan that the fans here seem to be a little more fanatical than the local fans in the peninsula recently.
There were many people waiting to pick them up from the moment they got off the plane, and people followed their bus all the way to the hotel. Before it was time to enter the performance venue, a lot of people had already gathered in a dark crowd, and there was a queue.
There are three levels of teams inside and three levels outside.
After arriving at the hotel, some overly excited fans tried to rush to Chi Jingyuan and other members to hug them, but were quickly stopped by the assistant who reacted.
Seeing the fans who kept shouting their names at him when they were being pulled away, Chi Jingyuan also gained some understanding and feelings for the fans in Neon.
It seems that because SM has officially issued an announcement, Lay, who has already made clear his future path, no longer acts like he was worried and didn't want to communicate with others like he did in the previous period. Now he looks like
I have let go of all the baggage in my heart, and I look a lot more energetic, looking like I did when I first debuted.
Although there must be many members who are dissatisfied and resentful about Lay's retirement in name only, after all, they have already expected and prepared themselves mentally, and after all, everyone has been together for several years, and they also failed to debut from EXO.
We have gone through the bad times together.
The other party should officially return to the mainland of Xia after this month's neon tour. Even though they feel a lot of dissatisfaction, considering that this is also the last group activity of the other party, many members have put some negative emotions back, at least
On the surface, everyone has returned to the way they were before. Whether it's in the hotel or during rehearsals, they often joke and laugh, and the atmosphere seems to be good.
Of course, there were a few people who just put their grievances on him and were dissatisfied with him. They remained cold-faced and refused to participate in the whole conversation, which was obviously a sign of hostility. However, Lay probably understood in his heart and didn't bother to say anything, so he pretended that he didn't see it.
The EXO Neon Concert was held at the Fukuoka Marine Exhibition Center on November 11. Nearly 15,000 spectators attended the venue. The atmosphere in the entire venue was already very heated before it even started, and the noisy and noisy voices seemed to be about to break out.
The ceiling exploded.
"Are you happy today?"
After the opening, they sang a few songs and entered the chat session. The 10 EXO members stood in a row at the center of the stage. Chi Jingyuan held the microphone and smiled and greeted the audience.
"Ahhhh..."
The deafening screams made it impossible for him to hear what the audience was saying, but he could clearly feel the enthusiasm.
Just like in Xia Guo, EXO has made a lot of preparations for Neon's concert, including all members learning Japanese at the request of the company, and several songs have newly written Japanese lyrics that will be included in this concert.
Performing in a performance.
I went to Xia Guo activities to learn Chinese, and came to Neon activities to learn Japanese. SM did a good job in doing as the locals do.
Although there were Japanese courses before debut, and the company also set relatively strict requirements, after all, it is not the main task and other people do not have Chi Jingyuan’s language talent. So far, except for Chi Jingyuan, the other members have basically
It's just about saying hello in Japanese. At most, you can prepare one or two sentences in advance of what you want to say, memorize the pronunciation and then say it on stage.
Although this kind of stammering and unskilled language may surprise fans and give them the feeling that "the oppas really put their heart and soul into it", it can really make all viewers feel satisfied from the heart and create good impressions and
What gives me the most recognition is Chi Jingyuan's spoken language which sounds extremely fluent and authentic without any stumbling.
When all the members said hello just now, the audience's reaction was enthusiastic but a little superficial. It wasn't until Chi Jingyuan introduced himself and EXO in a proficient local language that the audience really became excited.
Because of his highest reputation and popularity, as well as his command of the best local language, Chi Kyung-won is also the protagonist of EXO's neon tour recognized by SM company. He spoke many words at the concert.
The company's original plan was to arrange for a staff member who was proficient in Japanese to translate the members' words during the chat session during the concert. However, after some discussion and checking Chi Jingyuan's actual Japanese level, the idea was abandoned.
He directly handed over the task of translating at the concert to Chi Jingyuan.
