"Concert?"

"Well, the company is stuck on this right now, saying that all five of us must renew their contracts before they can hold a solo concert for us. The one thing I'm hesitant about now is this..."

Cui Shirley thought about her headache and felt that the steak in her mouth had no taste. She shook her head and said with some self-deprecation: "Originally it was held in January, but it has been postponed until now because of me... There is no hope for returning.

But I know that the other members really want to hold this concert, and Victoria Ernie is willing to give up some domestic schedules for this..."

As she spoke, she chuckled dissatisfiedly: "It has been almost seven years since our debut. Except for SMtown a few times a year, we have not held a single solo concert. When we were about to disband, the company suddenly mentioned it.

, and it’s not a tour, haha..."

"..."

Sensing the hint of longing in Cui Xueli's tone, Chi Jingyuan was silent for a while.

He is very able to understand the importance of solo concerts for an idol group. Not counting the money-making revenue, it is the kind of standing on a broad stage, facing an even wider audience, and the whole audience is

Your fans, with tens of thousands of people watching, shouting, and cheering, don't even have to sing, just standing there is enough to make the crowds of people burn with admiration. This feeling of being supported by countless people, and the stars are shining over the moon.

It is the greatest encouragement and reward for an idol.

You may not have that much experience after getting used to the subsequent performances, but Chi Jingyuan still remembers the first concert after their debut and the touch those fans brought to him.

"...It's quite a pity to leave the career of idol without holding a concert." Chi Jingyuan breathed out softly, hesitated for a moment and said with some emotion.

Cui Xueli nodded immediately after hearing this,

"I thought so too, that's why..."

…………

In the same year, a dinner party with relatives turned into a complaint gathering because of Cui Xueli's bad mood. After finishing the meal, she didn't make any decision. Instead, she seemed to be in a much better mood, not as irritable and anxious as before.

However, due to Cui Xueli's hesitation and her final state, Chi Jingyuan felt that she was a little biased towards finally renewing her contract with the company, and from Chi Jingyuan's point of view, even if FX renewed her contract, the company would probably not

No matter what kind of activities are arranged, she doesn’t want to be an idol, and there is no obstacle to her desire to transform into an actress. The most important thing is not whether to renew her contract, but how to get enough film and television resources from the company for the company to promote her.

Until the end, Chi Jingyuan did not give her any clear advice on what to do. He felt that such an important matter that could affect her career or even her life did not require advice from outsiders. It was better to let Cui Xueli think about it herself.

If people don't develop well after listening to his advice and regret it, then they probably won't be able to become friends...

He listened like a trash can throughout the whole process, and only gave a few references until the meal was over, but at the end he specifically said, "If you have any demanding requirements, please tell me and I will help you communicate with the company."

For a moment..." This was a reassurance for Cui Xueli.

Cui Xueli's current problem is her differences with the company and the demand for film and television resources. In fact, if Chi Jingyuan really comes forward, the company will definitely make big concessions, but as a friend, Chi Jingyuan cannot always be her nanny.

Everyone's path is their own.

However, if you encounter any critical problems, it is natural for you to help as a relative.

In fact, to be honest, Chi Jingyuan has a good relationship with the members of FX, and he would like to see FX hold a concert of their own before disbanding.

If it would be held, he would definitely go and see it...

After finishing the dinner with friends, Chi Jingyuan naturally returned to the crew and started filming the last period of the drama "Signal".

Now, "Signal" only has the last four episodes left to be aired, and only the last two episodes have yet to be filmed. The crew does not have much time left to work together.

In fact, if Chi Jingyuan hadn't been absent for a short period of time in the middle, judging from their progress, the filming should have been completed by now. The actors in the same crew were fine, and some staff, set managers, and the like must have been fond of him.

I had some objections, but with the help of Chi Jingyuan’s friends and members’ various support vehicles that were running almost every day, nothing unpleasant happened despite the short talk.

"Wow Jingyuan, your look just now was so amazing. It will definitely be another classic shot after the show."

In the police station set up by the crew of "Signal", Kim Hye-soo and Ji Kyung-won, who had just finished filming, were sitting together, each holding coffee in their hands, chatting in a good atmosphere: "You have filmed several TV series, have you ever

Have you considered trying movies? There is absolutely no problem with your acting skills and popularity. I heard that many directors in the industry are very optimistic about you..."

Jin Huixiu was wearing clothes, sitting there with her legs crossed and her right leg swaying very casually. She looked at Chi Jingyuan and asked in a familiar tone.

"Haha, senior is so praised... I have thought about getting into movies, and I have received some scripts and audition invitations, but I have been very busy in the past two years, and I haven't found a suitable script or story."

Chi Jingyuan nodded and explained briefly.

With his popularity and acting skills, he has actually received a lot of film resources in the past two years.

"What a pity... I remember that one of your XO members has already filmed a movie, right?" Kim Hye Soo responded casually, and then asked after thinking of something.

"Yes, some members have already been exposed to the movie, and two of them were released last month." Chi Kyung-won was a little surprised that Kim Hye-soo paid so much attention to EXO, but he quickly agreed with a smile.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! He is talking about Kim Junmyun and Do Kyungsoo. These two people are the first members of EXO to shoot movies. They starred in the movies "Glory Days" and "Innocent Love"

All of them were released last month, and among them Do Kyung-soo collaborated with Ji Kyung-won's little fan girl Kim So-hyun.

However, they are not big-budget films, just low-cost dramas. The reviews after their release can only be said to be average. Even the popularity of EXO members cannot save the box office of these two movies. The box office of both movies is only just...

More than 200,000 visitors.

This box office is actually supported by the popularity of EXO, which shows that the two movies really have no highlights.

I'm a little embarrassed to say it. When the audition invitations for the roles in these two movies were sent to SM, they were actually all from Chi Kyung-won. It was only after he showed no interest that SM let the other members who wanted to become actors slip away.

After a lot of pushing, Kim Jun-myeon and Do Kyung-soo finally got the roles.

"Would it be a pity to fall behind the members of your own team?"

"The TV series is also pretty good..." Chi Jingyuan shrugged and expressed that he was quite satisfied. Then he showed a bright smile like a junior and looked at the senior: "If I encounter a good script in the future, I will try it again."

Other EXO members like Kim Junmyeon and Do Kyungsoo who want to be actors are different from Ji Kyungwon.

If they want to make movies, they can only start with this kind of low-budget feature films, or rely on XO's popularity and exposure to play supporting roles such as the fifth male and the sixth male in some big productions.

But Chi Jingyuan doesn't have this need. Now he can actually receive some good roles and scripts, but firstly, he is not very interested in them, and secondly, he has not met the right ones.

At this time, Zhao Zhenxiong, who was fine, walked to the side and sat down. His face was serious and he seemed not to be in good spirits.

"Brother, you don't look very good." Chi Jingyuan took the initiative to say hello.

"Don't mention it, the role of Li Caihan is too stressful, and sometimes I can't sleep well at night." Zhao Zhenxiong shook his head and sighed with exhaustion on his face.

Chi Jingyuan nodded clearly. He knew that what he was talking about was not the pressure or the pressure of acting, but that the script behind "Signal" was a bit dark, and he was too deeply involved when performing it, which he couldn't accept.

"By the way, do you have any thoughts on the sequel that the producer casually mentioned yesterday?" At this time, Jin Huixiu suddenly mentioned something.

The ratings of "The Signal" have risen to 15%, which is already a good result among cable TV stations. Although the reputation has declined slightly recently, the overall evaluation is still very high. tvN's 10th anniversary special

The project was considered a great success. Before the broadcast ended, I heard that the TV station had already communicated with the director and screenwriter about the second part.

And because the roles of Park Hae-young and Lee Chae-han played by Ji Kyung-won and Jo Jin-woong are very brilliant, these two male protagonists have received a lot of praise and fans due to their wonderful performance and characterization, and have become the stars of "Signal".

The representative and biggest attraction of the drama, the character Kim Hye Soo has been overshadowed and seems a little weak in comparison, but after all, the brand is here, and it can be regarded as the "Signal" iron triangle.

If a sequel is to be made, the iron triangle will definitely have to communicate. If one of them is missing, especially if one of the two male protagonists is missing, things will change instantly.

"What I said...you need to think about it again. It's really uncomfortable to act in this type of TV series." Without hesitation, Zhao Zhenxiong waved his hand. Looking at his expression, although he said he was thinking about it, he was probably thinking about it in his heart.

I don’t really want to do a sequel.

"I'll read it again, at least until the script comes out..." Chi Jingyuan also smiled, with some rejection in his tone: "After all, the scripts for these last few episodes are a bit..."

He was talking about the fact that the reputation of "Signal" has been declining. When it first aired, "Signal" received unanimous recognition due to its novel setting, tight rhythm, and wonderful performances, and its ratings and reputation have also been rising.

But now in the last two or three episodes, I don’t know if Kim Won-seok wants to prolong the gathering or if the screenwriter Kim Eun-hee can’t write it out. These episodes have used a lot of flashbacks to increase the duration, and the pace has also become a lot slower.

, and also caused a lot of bugs due to the out-of-control shuttle setting.

Of course, this cannot be said to be a bad ending. "The Signal" is still a very good suspense drama, but the script at the end is indeed a bit weaker than the beginning.

"That's true..." Jin Huixiu smiled and nodded noncommittally.

"It will be finished soon..." Zhao Zhenxiong suddenly sighed at this time.

"It's almost done. The director said it won't take more than a week..."

…

At around three o'clock in the afternoon, Chi Jingyuan left the set and took the nanny car to JYP.

Twice was given more than a day to rest, and today was the scheduled recording date. He even made special adjustments with the crew to arrange some scenes at other times, freeing up some time in the afternoon and evening.

As a producer, Chi Jingyuan feels that he has done his best.

And he also adjusted his mentality to make himself more patient.

But if Tugas is still in the same state today, he might really get angry.

"Jingyuan, you didn't eat much at noon. You still have some time, why don't you go get something to eat first?"

The car stopped at the red light. Park Jae-hyun, who was driving, looked back and suggested.

"Forget it, I just ate some snacks and I'm not very hungry." Chi Jingyuan looked at the time, thought about it briefly and then shook his head: "Just go over there, start early and finish early."

"good……"

Park Jae-hyun responded and started the car. Chi Jingyuan's phone suddenly rang. He saw that it was Li Chenghuan calling.

Connected.

"Brother, what's wrong?" Chi Jingyuan asked, leaning on the back of his chair. There must be something wrong with this brother calling here.
