Chapter 325 Good News

Thailand and even the whole of Southeast Asia are one of the important activity areas of Kpop. Many idol groups who are famous and emerging will try to come here to carry out some activities to improve their awareness in Asia.

Although EXO has been limited to boy groups mainly active in Peninsula and Xiaguo before their debut, they also attach great importance to the Southeast Asian market, and their popularity here is quite good.

After returning from Thailand, Chi Jingyuan returned to the crew of "Unborn" non-stop. Seeing his return, whether it is the director, writer or other actors, they are all relieved.

Not long after the filming started, the leading actor was injured and left. Many people who didn’t know the specific situation inside were a little apprehensive, and even if they had been filming other people’s scenes for more than eight days, there was not much to shoot, even group portraits. However, the main character Zhang Klai appeared too frequently, and without Chi Jingyuan, it was almost impossible to shoot.

As soon as he walked into the 15th floor of Lotte Plaza, Chi Jingyuan received a warm welcome. A group of seniors gathered together and applauded to welcome him back from injury. Such enthusiasm made Chi Jingyuan himself a little embarrassed.

Although I was absent for more than a week, fortunately, the production team started up relatively early, leaving nearly two months of filming period before the premiere, plus the previous filming went smoothly and quickly, so far the remaining time It's still enough, but Chi Jingyuan must be busy in the next few days.

And when Chi Kyung Won returned to the crew to start filming again, after such unsatisfactory incidents as the love affair was exposed one after another, Baekhyun’s love affair was exposed, Luhan left the group, FX ended activities early, red velvet was boycotted when he debuted, etc. , SM finally announced a good news on the 15th.

At noon, an announcement was made that all members of Girls' Generation, a subsidiary of Girls' Generation, have renewed their contracts and will continue to carry out activities as members of Girls' Generation and singers belonging to SM in the next three years.

A person familiar with the matter said that this contract renewal is completely different from the way they signed together in the pre-debut rookie period. This time it is the result of negotiations between the members and the brokerage company.The members of Girls' Generation who have entered the ranks of big-name stars each offered different conditions according to their own needs. After many rounds of negotiations, the contract renewal of all members was finally completed.

Some insiders also revealed that the contract renewal between Girls' Generation and SM Entertainment had already been completed quite early on, because the news had not been made public at that time.

As for why it is suddenly announced now, the specific reason is not clear.

As soon as the news came out, SM's stock price immediately rose, and the excitement of the online sones who were still sticking to it was beyond words.

This year's Girls' Generation is really a bit of water retrograde. From the beginning of the year to now, there are not many things that go well. The contract year has already reached September and there is no guarantee. Many fans have been a little nervous, for fear of waking up. It's completely unacceptable to hear news like 'the contract renewal has not been reached, Girls' Generation will not be disbanded as a soloist'.

Seeing the contract renewal of all members reached this time, many sones who were suppressed before all felt elated, and made various comments on the Internet: "Even if the results this year are indeed not as good as in previous years, as long as Jiu Niu is together, there is no problem. We will always support them in high mountains and low valleys!"

"No matter how much Girls' Generation goes down, it will always be a big mountain standing in front of all girl groups. I knew this golden signboard was something that SM couldn't give up."

"As expected, how many people in the entire peninsula don't know Girls' Generation's name?"

"Taeyeon, you should have obtained solo resources for this contract renewal, right? We fans have been waiting for many years, hurry up and solo your favorite songs, wuli gold singer!"

"Now is Girls' Generation, from now on Girls' Generation will always be Girls' Generation!"

Just watching these speeches through the screen, Chi Jingyuan can feel the joy and relief of the sones, they have really been suppressed for too long.

He didn't care much about this matter during this time. Although the contract renewal may have been reached long ago, after seeing it, Chi Jingyuan was still very happy for Taeyeon's sunny sisters. Yan and Sunny called to express their congratulations.

It's just that the process of the call was a bit beyond his expectation. No matter whether it was Kim Taeyeon or Sunny, it seemed that they were not very happy about this matter. Facing Chi Jingyuan's congratulations, both of them were smiling. He expressed his thanks and made a few jokes without any abnormality in his tone, but he felt a little bit of reluctance in the laughter of the two of them, as if they were not in a good mood these days.

However, it may also be that Chi Jingyuan thought too much and felt wrong.

Sunny didn't say anything else. He chatted about the recent situation, cared about Chi Jingyuan's recovery, and then hung up.

On the day of Chi Jingyuan's accident, they had already talked on the phone respectively.

Instead, Taeyeon proposed an invitation that surprised Chi Jingyuan:
"We are currently recording a TTS reality show, and there are several episodes in the middle of which we plan to invite our friends to come and record together. Jing Yuan, would you like to come over and have fun?"

Chi Jingyuan was stunned for a second, and reflexively said, "Reality show? Nuna, are you coming back?"

"Didn't I tell you that a long time ago? The company also released a lot of news and concept photos a few days ago..." While talking, Kim Taeyeon realized something was wrong, and her voice suddenly became louder: "Ah, Chi Jingyuan , Did you not pay attention to the recent situation of the Nunas at all? We TTS will soon return to such an important thing, as friends, you don’t even know?”

"Ani, why don't you know? I've already seen the teaser for the MV released today. It's pretty good. TTS is great!"

Chi Jingyuan popped up the call page, quickly opened naver and searched for TTS, then glanced at the headlines on the top, and replied with a clear tone in his heart: "There is nothing wrong with the reality show, Nuna You ask your agent to send me a rough recording schedule, if I can spare time, I will definitely come."

"Okay, then I'll ask him to send it to you then."

Kim Taeyeon sounded quite happy, but she still added: "But Jingyuan, you are not filming recently, just come on your own time, and forget it if you don't have a schedule."

"Arathor."

Chi Jingyuan said that he understood, and finally hung up the phone after chatting for a few more words.

Don't think about those speculations, the contract renewal is really good news, whether it is for the fans, the company or the members themselves.

Just like Fan Shuodu, this is already a golden signboard.

But caring and congratulating is already OK, and I don't have time to think about other things these two days.

After returning to the crew, it was very dark and dark for more than two days of re-shooting. From the start in the morning until the end of the midnight in the early morning, basically all of Chi Jingyuan's scenes were taken. It was completely like making up for the [-] o'clock break before Same back.

However, after two days of busy work, Ji Jingyuan bid farewell to the crew again, and returned to EXO to start preparations for the Incheon Hallyu Tour Concert and the Incheon Asian Games opening ceremony on the 17th and 19th respectively.

Fortunately for the former, EXO has participated in several times and is already very familiar with it. It is no problem to sing "overdose" after a little rehearsal. It is mainly for the rehearsal and rehearsal of the warm-up stage of the Asian Games.

This is a task assigned by the above. The company and the group pay special attention to it, and no mistakes can be tolerated. Everyone in EXO has spent all their time on this in the past few days. I don’t know how many times I have rehearsed.

It’s not just them, it’s the same for several other groups that also have stage performances. For example, bigbang doesn’t play with mystery and personality this time. These days, like EXO, they spend all day rehearsing together in the venue. We met countless times in the past two days.

It’s just that the seniority and age gap between the two groups is a bit big, the relationship between SM and YG is mediocre, and the relationship between the members of the two groups can’t be said to be very good, except for Lee Seungri, Park Chanyeol and the leader Kim Junmyeon who often chat and socialize , others just say hello relationship.

In addition to the warm-up stage, Lay and Chen from the EXO-M team were also invited to guest-star as special reporters for the Asian Games on Xia Guo TV. They will participate in the live broadcast and interviews of the Asian Games, which can be regarded as quite famous up.

In fact, at the beginning, they thought about letting Chi Jingyuan and Lay pair up as the special reporter, but after some consideration and discussion, they decided to choose someone from the M team, and finally chose Chen, the best member of Xia Wen. .

Chi Jingyuan himself does not lack this exposure, he himself has been so busy these two days that he is almost out of breath.

On September 9th, the Asian Games was officially held at the main stadium of the Incheon Asian Games. On the warm-up stage before the opening ceremony, EXO, which many fans had been waiting for, finally made its debut.

Chi Jingyuan and the members were all dressed in gray suits and stood in the middle of the empty stadium. Eleven people posed in the classic 'Tree of Life' shape. All the eyes of the [-] spectators in the surrounding auditorium were focused on them. Among them, there are many people of high status, and there are countless people watching them on the TV that is filming and live broadcasting them in front of them.

There is really a feeling of being noticed by everyone.

To be honest, when Chi Jingyuan was standing here waiting for the opening, his legs trembled a little, his chest breathing was very rapid, and he kept breathing with his head down. Even though he had rehearsed countless times, he really stood on this stage At that time, the whole body was very tense.

He has never been so cramped in his debut stage, and he hasn't felt this kind of heart beating for a long time.

Chi Jingyuan could tell that he was not the only one who had this kind of experience. He could clearly see the hands of Wu Shixun standing in front of him, Luhan who ran away instead, and Baekhyun who played the branch with his partner. He and his legs were shaking, and he was obviously panicked to death, and he completely lost the look of dismissiveness he had shown before he went on stage.

It took a long time for these people to be so calm before they appeared on the stage, all of them were pretending.

I don't know how long it took, the music of "wolf" finally rang out amidst the noisy voices, the dance that has been danced countless times was successfully displayed under the muscle memory, and the nervousness before the official start of the performance was unconscious It subsided a lot, and the members were all immersed in the performance on the stage.

After the end of "wolf", the members stood in a row and greeted the audience and introduced themselves. Then Kim Junmyeon took the microphone and said a few words of congratulations on behalf of EXO, and then proceeded to the next performance without interruption. "roar"

After the electronic sound prelude, which is very familiar to most of the audience, the stadium fell into a burst of loud cheers for a short time.

Even if this year's "Addicted" is very good, "i need u" and "dope" are both very popular and have their own fans, but when it comes to EXO's most representative classic song is still "Roar", no one will question it This is what the members themselves feel.

After Luhan left, the roar of the 11-member version was pretty much the same as before, except that when it was the turn of the second team to perform the second verse, Chi Jingyuan would stand over to take Luhan’s place, but he just danced along without his own part , the original Luhan's part has been distributed to several other members.

After the performance, all the members bowed together, and then trotted away from the venue to the backstage, as if they really didn't want to stay here for a second.

The pressure to perform on this occasion is really a bit high.

As soon as he entered the backstage, Chi Jingyuan took off his suit and gasped for breath. He was sweating a lot after just two songs, and his legs and feet were still a little weak. It felt worse than dancing for a whole concert. much tired.

"Ai Yigu... Ai Yigu...Ah..." Chen and Chanyeol next to him kept shouting to express their emotions, and judging from their looks, they must have survived.

"We watched it on TV, and the performance was very successful. The director just talked to me on the phone. The company is very satisfied with our performance."

I went back to the lounge and found a random place to sit. After receiving the drinks handed over by the manager and assistant, everyone gulped down a few times with relief, and then stood there a little excitedly as Li Chenghuan made the conclusion.

"Finally this case is settled. The children have worked hard, but we have to fly to Xiaguo later. The company has already booked the air tickets. When we come back, we will have a dinner together to celebrate."

Chi Jingyuan and several other members drank water and gestured that it was OK.

It doesn't matter about the dinner or something, the main thing is just like what Li Chenghuan said, I finally finished this important stage performance, and I feel a lot lighter all of a sudden.

That night, the EXO team flew to Tianjing, Xiaguo together with the team, and held two concerts at the MasterCard Center on 20 and 21.

These two Tianjing concerts are the last two performances of EXO in the near future, and also the last two performances of this year's tour in mainland China. There will be a long gap between the next concerts, and the latest one will be in Neon Fukuoka in November stand up.

That is to say, in the next two months, apart from the inescapable advertisements, Chi Jingyuan can focus all his energy on the filming of TV dramas and some incidental promotions.

After the performance, EXO didn't stop and returned to the peninsula directly. Chi Jingyuan had a meal with the members to celebrate and then returned to the crew non-stop.

The next few days were continuous filming in the dark. The rest time of the previous few days and the rehearsal time for the Asian Games were all made up at this time. Every day from the morning until the crew got off work in the early morning, Chi Jing Yuan, the actor, is the highlight of the filming.

Every day is busy and tiring, and he once again experienced the exhaustion and busyness of filming "Please Answer" and "The Heirs". He feels that he has lost a little weight in the past few days.

But Chi Jingyuan can be regarded as enjoying it. To be honest, the filming of the workplace drama is really interesting, and the atmosphere of the crew of "Misaeng" is also very good. Director Jin Yuanxi is often cheerful when he is not angry and scolding others. Li Xingmin likes to make a joke, and inviting several other actors is also very interesting. Li Xingmin just called Chi Jingyuan to go and drink a few times.

And it's not just Chi Jingyuan who is tired alone, all the crew members including the actors are actually working very hard, but no one said anything, and I don't know what's going on, I feel that the more I shoot, the more energetic I feel .

It may be that they are more like each other, or it may be that everyone has more confidence in this drama.

Today is the 25th. At this time, the production team of "Weisheng" was having dinner break. Chi Jingyuan and a few seniors got together to eat fried noodles and hamburgers, while watching the extremely hot news on the phone.

There was another big scandal recently, and several of their leading actors are gathering together to eat melons and discuss.

While talking, the phone in Chi Jingyuan's hand suddenly rang. He glanced at the caller, picked up a piece of paper and wiped his mouth, then nodded to several senior actors at the table, and walked to the side with the phone connected.

As soon as it was connected, a very familiar voice came in, without even saying hello, he said straightforwardly:
"Do you have time tonight? Come out for a drink!"
