Chapter 164: Watching Europe(1/2)
“Have you watched the MV of Oppa’s new song?”
"Of course I watched it! Both songs are so cool, I watched them dozens of times! The electronic rhythm of "LOTTO" is so cool, and "Blood, Sweat and Tears", ahhh..."
Two high school-looking female students were walking side by side on the way to school with their schoolbags on their backs. They seemed to have slept very late last night, their eyes were bleary and they were not in good spirits. They were chatting while walking without having a date.
However, after one of them brought up a certain topic, the passion of both of them was instantly ignited. One of the girls immediately lost her composure and talked wantonly about how amazing she felt when she saw the MV yesterday. She couldn't help but hold her hands while talking.
Face screamed.
Faced with the excited expressions and screams of her companions, the girl who asked the question was very understanding and continued to ask with sparkling eyes:
"Isn't it completely handsome and sexy?"
"Yeah, I really went crazy when I saw it yesterday. When I saw the trailer, I thought it was going to be more luxurious and high-end. I didn't expect it to be a sexy style, and the song is so good. It's really sexy!"
"... Me too, I'm totally surprised! The melody is so brainwashing, and the MV is so well shot... Which member do you think looks the best this time?"
"I think they are all quite handsome. The makeup this time, especially the aristocratic and luxurious style suits, are very good... But if I must say, Baekhyun and Yuan stand out more. Baekhyun's opening sentence is so direct
It made me tremble when I heard it, and he digested this style very well...
And Yuan’s look this time, with black hair and a black suit, is so handsome. His eyes and expressions in a few parts are so weird!! His style of appearance and personality are so sexy that people can’t stand it.
…”
"Is it the close-up of covering your face?"
"Ah, yes, yes! It's that shot, that look in the eyes and the smile, and you're covering your face! It's so lustful and seductive. I was stunned when I saw it yesterday. I, ah..."
The unexperienced high school girl seems to be unable to resist the charm exuded after the transformation of TOP idols. Just recalling it makes her blood red, and she is at a loss. She can only express her excitement by screaming.
This transformation of EXO really surprised fans. After seeing the teaser photos, many people were still discussing whether they would take a more high-end route to shatter Kpop. Unexpectedly, after the song was released, they immediately started to adopt a sexy style.
…
Obviously, trying this style for the first time gave fans a strong sense of freshness. In terms of impact and novelty, EXO's style choice has been successful.
As for the specific evaluation, how far the results can go depends on the subsequent progress... But judging from the reactions of these two girl fans, they should be quite optimistic.
The two girls walked together towards the school. Ever since they mentioned EXO's new song, they started chatting non-stop.
First, he expressed his surprise and satisfaction with the Obamas' MV, and then started chatting along this topic, from the concept and metaphor of the MV to the members' styling and part allocation. After lamenting Kai's absence this time,
They also focused on Chi Jingyuan, who shocked them the most, and discussed it with lust and admiration. The choreographer of Oppa's "Blood, Sweat, and Tears" is really beautiful. I wonder if there is anything underneath that black suit.
Those coveted abdominal muscles, what would it feel like if you touched them...
After a period of low-pitched discussions with suppressed excitement, there was a mechanical laughter, until finally it ended with an excited and restless scream.
"... Several new songs from the reissued album are very good. "Blood, Sweat and Tears" ranked first, "LOTTO" ranked second, and "Monster" from the previous three albums has been re-entered the inner ring. The MV was clicked in less than two hours.
The volume has exceeded 10 million... It’s no wonder that I couldn’t sleep well after browsing for several hours yesterday.”
Entering the school, the expressions of the two people calmed down a little, and the discussion volume became a little quieter.
"Are you still number one now?"
"Yes, I just watched it before I went out... As long as the Obamas release songs, the daily charts in the past few days should be stable, but the whistle sound source of YG's new girl group is really good, I don't know if it can beat it
they.
But I heard that their fans are worried now. Their debut song is so popular. It’s amazing to be a substitute just after debuting. But originally, they were a bit unable to beat IOI. Now the Obamas are back for next week’s show.
There is even less hope for the position. Yesterday, before the Oppas released their songs, their fans started to brush YouTube and music data, hoping to get one by one before the Oppas released their songs..."
""Whistle" is really nice. Compared to IOI's new song, I actually prefer Blackpink... I definitely have no hope next week. If I can get one this week, a new group can get it just half a month after their debut.
You are truly worthy of being a new monster monster..."
"That's right, the newcomer won the title of Music Weekly, tsk tsk... By the way, did you read what was said in the fan club yesterday? VIXX's concept this time seems to collide with our concept of "Blood, Sweat and Tears", and there are several scenes,
It’s the scenes of people drinking and toasting around the table that are particularly similar. Some of their fans are still saying that we plagiarized... A lot of Ellie are very angry and are ready to teach them a lesson."
The girl who was about to enter the classroom turned around and curled her lips disdainfully after hearing this: "I saw it too... Sexy style has been used by countless boy groups. How could they have copied it? If you don't tell me, I won't know they are coming back."
Already..."
"And they are shouting so happily. The two groups are not on the same track now. Don't bring different levels together to discuss... Let's fight NCT127 first, and let the fire trucks of the junior brothers put down the fire for them!"
…………
"The prelude hit me instantly. You may not believe it when I tell you. I didn't have any feelings for Yuan before, until I saw the part covering my eyes. It only took me one second to think of the names of the two children."
"Xiumin, the eldest, is almost 28 years old, and Yuan, the youngest, is already 23 years old. It's time to try this sexy style a long time ago. Ernie is very satisfied with the songs in the reissued album and has already placed another order.
Ten albums ago, my suggestion is that it’s best to stick to a similar style next time, and continue to wear a suit outside, but you don’t need to wear a shirt underneath..."
"I like the darkness of "Monster" very much, but I like the sexiness of "Blood, Sweat and Tears" even more this time. The choreography and costumes are great. Can I just say that it deserves to be the TOP? Both albums are double hits.
Are all the songs of such high quality?”
"Baekhyun is such an extremely refined temptress, and Yuan, who is usually very sunny, can't stand the contrast in how sexy he is. This song was simply made for these two!"
"Doesn't anyone like "LOTTO"? I think this kind of lazy and sexy hip-hop is also very exciting. After watching the MV, I feel like I have become a rich man!"
At this time, EXO had just finished lunch and were preparing to go to SM COEX to pre-record the "Inkigayo" stage the day after tomorrow. They were sitting in the nanny car heading to their destination.
Because the pre-recorded stage scenery is more complicated, they did not record the first stage during the song performance. Instead, they set up the background for recording in advance. The fans who entered the venue had already been selected through the Internet.
Chi Jingyuan was sitting in the back row, sliding his fingers on the screen and quickly browsing the comments on the forum from fans and netizens about several songs from EXO's reissued album after a night of fermentation.
He was actually not too sure about trying sexy style for the first time. Although he felt that he had digested it well and his styling was excellent, the authorities were obsessed with it. It was useless for him to think it was good, but only for the fans to think it was good.
After browsing around for a while, he found that posts about EXO's comeback had already occupied most of the forums in just one night. After reading for a while, he felt that most people were quite surprised by this reissue of the album.
And among the eight members, the ones with the best reviews and the most discussions were him and Byun Baekhyun... Just as he had expected, Chi Jingyuan himself needless to say, Baekhyun is really suitable for this kind of person.
Style, there were many places where he felt ashamed.
In addition, the evaluation of the two title songs at this time is also OK, especially the most popular "Blood, Sweat and Tears", which many fans feel very amazing.
Chi Jingyuan has actually been very satisfied with "Blood, Sweat and Tears" before. This song is very complete, with melody, arrangement, costumes, styling, MV and even concept and sexy style, all aspects are very good.
good……
Except that the overall lyrics may be a little inferior due to too much repetition...but Wu Shixun and his group are only at that level, so we can't ask too much of them.
While I was watching, my phone vibrated and a text message popped up: "How are you treated? How can the MV set be so good?"
It was sent by Zheng Eunji, a relative from Busan. She obviously watched the MV of "Blood, Sweat and Tears" and was inspired by it, so she sent it to complain and interact.
Chi Jingyuan smiled after seeing the name, but replied very coldly, "I don't talk to competitors."
As a feat, Busan Big Mouth collaborated with rapper Hanhae on a single "Summer, Ice Cream". He also released the sound source and MV on the 18th. It can be said that he collides with EXO and is a competitor in a sense.
.
But as for the response... at least he didn't see a single discussion post after browsing the forum for a long time just now. Chi Jingyuan just took a look at the MV for this song.
His evaluation is not as good as "Fire Truck"
But the female lead in the MV is pretty good-looking...better than Jung Eun-ji.
"Ah, who are you mocking? Who dares to compete with you XO now? Your fans are overwhelming me before I even open my mouth."
Zheng Endi replied unhappily at first, then changed his tone and added with a bit of lewdness: "...Don't tell me, you really look good when you twist it!"
"It's not bad...it's better than some people who don't have that taste no matter how much they twist it."
"%¥%...Do you know how to speak well?"
He could clearly feel the sense of breaking the defense in his tone, and Chi Jingyuan couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Just when he was about to make a joke, he suddenly received another text message from Zhou Ziyu. Chi Jingyuan opened it and frowned.
This girl didn't know what was going on, so she directly sent a voice message, which lasted for more than 20 seconds.
The other members were sitting nearby, so he couldn't just click on it and listen.
What a hassle...
After smacking his lips, Chi Jingyuan took out his headphones from his bag and put them on, then clicked on the voice message:
"That batch of them~~(my blood, tears, and sweat)"
As soon as he turned it on, a familiar voice and music entered his ears, making Chi Jingyuan's expression pause...
She actually directly posted a clip of her singing "Blood, Sweat and Tears". From before the chorus to the end of the chorus, she used up to 20 seconds to show off her singing voice. She seemed to like this song very much.
Look.
But her voice was soft, with a lingering sense of naivety, and was full of breathing sounds. When she sang this extremely sexy and ethereal song, she actually had the feeling of "Three Little Bears"
》Feeling, Chi Jingyuan seemed to be able to imagine her licking her short face, raising her cheeks and recording on her mobile phone.
After he listened once, he paused for a moment, listened again, then snorted disdainfully and replied:
"It sounds awful."
…………
Relying on the stunning style and songs, EXO's reissued album has carved out its own small world under the attack of the two top stars, Olympic Games and Huang Meiying. The popularity and discussion continue to rise, and the number of listens continues to rise.
While increasing and spreading its influence, it can maintain its advantage on the daily charts under the previous strong performance of "Whistle" on the music charts.
To be continued...
