Chapter 353 Where are you

"Are you going back to the peninsula early tonight?"

After Pei Zhuxuan sent the news, she was a little dazed, sitting there cross-legged against the wall, holding the phone in her hand and breathing a little short of breath.

EXO is currently at the MAMA site on Hong Kong Island. Even if the ceremony ends in a while, if there is no other schedule there, according to the usual practice, it should be to have a dinner party to celebrate, stay for one night, and then fly back the next day. If there is a schedule The time to stay is even more.

However, Pei Zhuxuan remembered that when sending a message to Chi Jingyuan a few days ago, he heard him casually mentioning that after MAMA ended, he might have to come back early, and he would return to the crew to participate in the filming the next morning.

At that time, she just listened casually to leave a little impression, but now she remembered the news reflexively.

She also knows that EXO is performing on stage now, and will participate in the awards later, so it is impossible to reply now, but Pei Zhuxuan still holds the phone and does not want to put it down, and she looks anxiously from time to time, she doesn't know why she just looks away , After a while, I always feel that the phone is ringing.

When all kinds of thoughts were turbulent and complicated in her mind, EXO had also entered the stage of the next "Addiction". Although she lowered her head at this time and did not look at the screen of the mobile phone, the familiar and slightly Shocking Lyrics:

"Someone call the doctor catch me and tell me so."

"Emotions are nothing more than a disease, a poisoning, an addiction."

"It's getting harder and harder to control as time goes on."

"Gradually sinking into the depths."

"Too much you, your love, this is poison, it is overdose..."

…………

During Kai's solo dance, the other members went backstage again and put on the prepared silver and white long-swing suits, and after setting up the opening pose on the elevator, they slowly climbed up. The stage of the last song "Addicted" also And so began.

Still the nine-person choreographer after the adaptation.

Addictive’s stage is more conventional, without the impressive lantern setting of "Let It Be" just now, and there are not many gimmicks except that Kai dances barefoot, and it doesn't look like "dope" after a long absence Reunion, "Addiction" as the title song they performed too many times.

Although the cheers were very enthusiastic and the fans were very excited, it seemed that many people were still immersed in the amazing stage of "Let It Be" just now, and did not come out of the shocking acapella harmony at the end. The support below seems to be missing something.

Because of Tao's departure, Chi Jingyuan was the only one left in the face-knocking dance in the middle, and no one did the somersault ending at the end. Some Ailis who were used to XO stage performances before saw it and felt a little complicated in their hearts.

Amidst the warm cheers, the performance of "Addiction" was completed. With the huge maze logo reappearing on the curtain behind the stage, the lights gradually dimmed, and EXO's stage came to an end.

"It's been hard work!"

Backstage, the assistants quickly greeted him and said that the prepared water and drinks were handed over, and the manager also yelled with a smile.

Chi Jingyuan let a cody sister wipe his sweat for him, twisted off the bottle cap and poured a few sips at him. The three stages together are really tiring, even if the "Let It Be" in the middle does not need to dance , but as the lead singer, he is actually not easy.

Lee Seung-hwan patted the shoulders of several people one by one, and explained loudly at the same time: "Take a rest, after 2PM receives the awards, we will go to the artist booth and prepare for the final big award."

"Inside."

With a loose response, several members of EXO slumped down on the sofa in the lounge and had a short rest. It didn’t take long for them to receive the award in a few minutes at 2PM, and they returned to the artist seat after the staff notified them. .

When they sat in the artist booth, the stage had already started to perform. It was the solo stage of Taeyang's "Eyes, Nose and Mouth". After a while, there will be a duet performance with GD.

GD and Taeyang formed bigbang's subunit GD X TAEYANG in November this year, and released the single "good boy" on the 21st of last month.

The performance of this song is generally only one, but the popularity and evaluation of this song are very high. The YouTube data, especially the MV hits are very high, and the digital sales are also very good, which can be regarded as causing a lot of trouble. repercussions.

The stage of "Eyes, Nose and Mouth" was nothing special, but the collaboration stage between GD and Taeyang surprised many people in the artist section.

Quan Zhilong was wearing a plush coat, and the rap before the performance of "good boy" did not sing the lyrics that should have been sung, but came directly to a modified rap by the diss MAMA organizer:

"It's been a long time since I saw MAMA, the formation is quite big."

"I'm afraid the children will fight, so share your pork well."

"..."

During the whole one-minute Rap prelude, he not only dissed the organizer face to face, but also responded to the rap show "show me the money" that kept calling him. The audience didn't understand the lyrics, but not too much Thoughts, but the people on the peninsula who were watching the live broadcast were taken aback, especially the idols who were sitting in the entertainer booth at this time were shocked, and some didn't understand what was going on.

Even though several members of EXO really wanted to discuss it, they couldn't communicate well when they were stared at by the camera, so they could only show standard smiles.

On the other hand, the winners were very excited when they heard it, and they stood up and started dancing to support their company seniors on the stage. It seemed that they were very excited and handsome about the diss segment on this stage.

Aside from the diss, Quan Zhilong and Taeyang's stage is also very contagious. The two songs "good boy" and "Pokemon" are very suitable for stirring up the atmosphere, and the enthusiasm of the audience in the arena is aroused for a while. Very hot.

EXO is the penultimate finale of all MAMA performances this time, and GD Sun is the last one to appear. The cards are very full. After all, the seniority and the name of bigbang are here.

After the two performed, the award presenters appeared on the stage under the expectation of all the fans and audience.

It stands to reason that after the end of the last stage, the awards for the remaining two grand prizes will be presented, but for some reason, the organizer suddenly added a link, adding an award called 'the most popular vocalist', Chi Jing Yuan thought for a while after hearing this, but he just didn't understand what this award was, and he had never heard of this award in the previous sessions.

The translation should be 'the most popular lead singer', but shouldn't the best solo and best group have been released, and where did this 'lead singer' come from.

Just hearing the name of this award, I feel that the gold content is very ordinary, and it sounds like a wild award made up on the spur of the moment.

In the enthusiastic announcement of the award presenter, it was awarded to IU.

IU also looked a little surprised, her expression obviously changed, but she quickly adjusted and walked up with a smile. The audience was also a little confused, so when she walked on the stage, she was a little silent, and didn't know what the award was. Things, what kind of reaction should I use to face her who won the award.

Looking at IU who was standing on the stage to give a speech and said very standard thank you words, Chi Jingyuan always felt that she was smiling a bit forcedly, giving people a feeling of forced smile.

Just this testimonial has been organized several times, and IU probably didn't expect it.

Chi Jingyuan can predict that this scene may become one of the hot searches after today's MAMA ends, and even now it is estimated that many people have already started discussing it.

The subsequent song of the year was given to Taeyang's "Eyes, Nose, and Mouth". In fact, there is not much suspense. Although the sound source is overshadowed by "some", Taeyang's solo this time has really been very successful.

Last year Quan Zhilong won the grand prize for his solo, and this year Sun won the grand prize again for his solo. Speaking of which, bigbang really deserves to be the second-generation TOP boy group. The solo results of each member are better than the other. I can't wait to play the whole group alone.

However, last year Li Shengli's solo hit EXO's "Roar", and there was not much splash in the whole process, which greatly hindered the average score of bigbang members' solo.

It can be seen that Taiyang is also very excited to win the grand prize, and he said a lot of words of thanks. Although he is dressed in a hip-hop street style, his tone is very sincere, which makes people feel the gratitude and sincerity in his heart.

After Taiyang left the stage with the trophy, the presenter of the last big award, album of the year, Liu Tianwang, a native of Hong Kong Island, walked onto the stage in a handsome suit, causing many audiences to scream with emotion.

Although the gold content of the three MAMA awards is equal, many people understand that the later awards are actually more important. In addition to the time for the final award to give a speech, it can be seen from the level of the presenter. Out one or two.

Talked a lot like chatting, and Liu Tianwang even sold a few tricks, but in fact, whether it is the audience or the artist himself, they all know in their hearts that the rating of "album of the year" pays the most attention to sales. If there is no big accident, the reward should be EXO's.

Because sales really have a wall.

As of November, in the annual sales ranking list of the G list, the Korean and Chinese versions of EXO's second fan series "overdose" ranked first and second.

The third to fifth are all senior groups from SM, SJ's regular seven, TVXQ's regular seven and Girls' Generation's mini four.

And the third, fourth, and fifth add up, and the sales volume of EXO is not as high as that of EXO.

This kind of album sales that breaks the ceiling of the peninsula music industry and is completely disconnected from No.2 is an important reason why EXO has had an unparalleled momentum before, and is an important reason for being the best among the three generations of boy groups.

Of course, most of these sales were sold during the peak period of EXO in the first half of the year, and now encountering various incidents one after another, members falling in love and quitting the group in succession, some diehard fans ran away a lot, can the sales of another album be released? To maintain this leading position, whether it will rise or fall, and how much it will fall is currently unknown. Everything depends on the regular second series next year.

"In 2014, MAMA Album of the Year Award, the winner was..."

When Liu Tianwang created suspense and heated up the atmosphere, the voices of 'EXO, EXO' were already heard all over the venue, from sporadic and sudden to slowly blending together and becoming neat, the voices became louder and louder.

"XO!"

With an announcement, the audience erupted.

Liu Tianwang really understands, obviously he did his homework beforehand, knowing that 'E' is not pronounced.

Although it is only a small matter, it will make people feel respected.

All the idols in the artist seat gave a standing ovation, including senior GD and Taeyang, and the nine members of EXO also stood up and bowed continuously to express their gratitude to the others.

Nine people came out and hugged each other in front of the city to form a circle. They pressed their arms hard to show the excitement in their hearts. This action has become a symbolic action that EXO must do after winning the grand prize. It has been left since last year. Download several classic photos and shots, which are talked about by fans and passers-by.

"2014 Ment Asian Music Awards UnionPay Best Album of the Year winner is EXO."

"The pre-sale of the album "overdose" sold 78 copies before the album was sold, creating a record for the sales volume of all albums this year."

"Exo, which is loved not only in the peninsula, but also all over the world, is a well-deserved winner of the best album of the year. Congratulations!"

"someone call the doctor..."

With the sound of the narration and the BGM of "Addicted", and amidst the screams of the fans, the nine members of EXO strode towards the sub-stage, lined up to salute and then won the trophy, standing in a row in front of the microphone.

"EXO, EXO-L, thank you very much, I love you very much, I love you, thank you." Wu Shixun took the lead to grab the microphone and said in Chinese, God knows he memorized the pronunciation of these two sentences How long, such an urgent first speech, apart from his inner excitement, Chi Jingyuan felt that he might be afraid that he would forget how to pronounce it after a while.

"I sincerely thank MAMA who gave us so many surprises today, as well as SM's family members, the members who are together now, and every EXO-L, I sincerely thank you all."

"First of all, thank you very much. So many things have happened recently. I love you but can't love calmly. It is really a very hard thing to live in anxiety."

"No matter what happens in the future, no matter when EXO will always be EXO."

At this extremely glorious moment, when thinking of EXO's recent situation and uneasy prospects, all members were very excited and emotional for a while.

From Chen to Kim Junmyeon, Park Chanyeol, and Byun Baekhyun, everyone spoke one after another. Before, they had prepared a lot of things to say, but standing here now, the infinite thoughts in their hearts have gathered into the sentence they most want to say. .

At the end, it was Chi Jingyuan's turn. He was pushed in front of the microphone by the members, looked at the countless eyes staring at him below, pursed his lips and took a deep breath: "Thank you very much, thank you EXO-Ls for your support. For our support, both XO and Allies really worked hard in 2014..."

Speaking of this, he was blunt for a moment, looking at the dark audience in front of him and the cheering sticks waving non-stop, he opened his mouth and couldn't continue.

"It's not hard!"

"Exo come on!"

Hearing Chi Jingyuan's words, many fans were also very excited. They lost their feelings and yelled out their hearts at the top of their lungs, hoping that he could hear them.

He did hear it.

"Huh..." Chi Jingyuan sorted out his complicated mood, and after taking a breath, he smiled, looked at the lens, and slightly bowed to the microphone, his tone was calm but his words were a little angry:

"I'm really happy today... I hope... this time next year, we can continue to stand here and meet everyone..."

"EXO..." Chi Jingyuan glanced around, then grinned suddenly: "Start from here."

"Ahhh..." Hearing the deafening screams immediately below his words, many people immediately understood what it meant.

Including many Allies who were watching the live broadcast in front of the TV, a strong impulse and enthusiasm suddenly surged in their hearts at this time, and they wished to jump into the MAMA venue and shouted at Chi Jingyuan and other members: "XO will definitely be back next year. Will stand here, we will always support you..."

At this moment, they felt that they really understood Chi Jingyuan, understood the turmoil and firmness in their idol's heart, and Chi Jingyuan really understood them, understood their recent thoughts and what they had been looking forward to.

This kind of tacit feeling really fascinates all fans.

Immediately afterwards, Chi Jingyuan expressed his gratitude to the fans in the mainland and the audience in Mandarin and Cantonese respectively. Under the eyes of many people, the nine members saluted and stepped down.

As the host Song Seung Heon made the final summary, countless streamers floated from the ceiling, and all the artists in the entertainer’s seat walked onto the stage, bathing in the streamers floating all over the sky and interacting with the audience. The 2014 MAMA officially ended here .

"Ah ah ah..."

As soon as they returned to the backstage lounge, the members of Park Chanyeol yelled excitedly as soon as they entered the door, waved their fists and danced.

"Oh, oh, oh..." Jin Junmian took the lead to pick up a trophy, and Baekhyun and the others next to him seemed to want to grab it, laughing happily, and the whole lounge changed for a while. Very happy.

After arguing for a while, a few people calmed down a bit, and took a photo for certification at the invitation of the manager, and when packing up, Chen suddenly asked curiously:
"By the way, speaking of the rap of GD just now, did the lyrics be recorded in advance, or did he change it temporarily?"

"I don't know, we didn't see what he looked like during the rehearsal."

"It should have been recorded in advance, didn't there be pads when I listened to his stage performance?"

"I think it may be a temporary change. Will the organizer allow this kind of words to diss oneself?"

"MAMA, for the sake of popularity and gimmicks, it's impossible to watch IU's award..." Chi Jingyuan curled his lips, and while answering the conversation, he walked to the place where he put his bag and took out his mobile phone. It kept shaking, and many friends sent text messages to congratulate him on winning the award.

"The two big awards are great enough, the organizer is really partial...don't be complacent, wait until you come back to play songs, and watch us knock you (muscles) away" This is Zheng Eundi's, a bit of sourness rushes towards his face .

No matter how popular Apink is this year, it is still far from the grand prize.

"Congratulations on winning the grand prize! Wow, the song "Let It Be Natural" is really good. How did you sing that 'wuwuwu'?" This is Zhou Ziyu's, and I don't know why she is so idle.

"..."

Chi Jingyuan randomly selected a few people who were close to him and replied casually, and suddenly saw the message Pei Zhuxuan sent him: "Are you going back to the peninsula early tonight?"

He was stunned when he saw the text on the screen, and then noticed the time of sending, which was almost exactly around the time of their stage performance of EXO's "Let It Be Natural".

Chi Jingyuan blinked, and soon understood.

He replied quickly: "Yes, the ticket has been booked and we'll leave later."

Tomorrow is the day when the winter single "Let It Be" officially release the sound source and MV. Originally, EXO should rush back overnight to participate in the recording of tomorrow's song show, but tomorrow's "M! C" has been suspended for the past few weeks due to the holding of MAMA, and EXO's first stage can only be held on "Music Bank" the day after tomorrow.

In this way, other members can rest in Hong Kong Island for one night before leaving tomorrow. However, Chi Jingyuan is planning to go back overnight because he communicated with the crew and the task is relatively heavy, so he will return to the crew early tomorrow morning to start filming.

Pei Zhuxuan, who was far away in the practice room of the SM company building, sat there absent-mindedly in a daze, and the buzzing voices of Jiang Seulqi, Sun Seungwan, and Park Sooyoung lingered in her ears, but she couldn't listen to it.

At this time, the mobile phone that she had been holding in her hand, and which she glanced at from time to time, suddenly vibrated. She quickly picked it up and looked at it, her eyes flashed immediately, and she tapped on the screen quickly without thinking: "What time can I return?" How about going to Seoul?"

It takes about three hours to fly from Hong Kong Island to Incheon Airport, and it takes more than half an hour to drive back to downtown Seoul. It is estimated that it is already one or two o'clock in the morning at the earliest when we set off to the destination.

Chi Jingyuan didn't ask what the other party was doing, and replied directly: "It's going to be after two o'clock in the morning."

Seeing the time, Pei Zhuxuan didn't hesitate even though it was late: "Would you like to go out for a walk when you come back?"

After taking the initiative to send out the invitation, Pei Zhuxuan started to speed up with some nervousness in her heart, for fear of receiving some "next time" in the next second, "what's the matter? ' or 'It's too late to forget'.

The restless emotions in her heart could not be suppressed by this perfunctory reply at all. At this time, the lyrics she saw just now and the memories of the riverside were constantly reappearing in her mind. Driven by all kinds of emotions, she was really very happy. I want to meet with Chi Jingyuan.

I don't know what to ask and what to say, I just want to see him.

Soon, the phone vibrated, and she looked down at the reply and immediately pursed her lips and drew an arc: "Okay, I'll call you when I arrive."

Chi Jingyuan didn't ask her what was going on so late at all, and she agreed directly, as if the other party knew her current mood very well without saying anything.

A sense of understanding and tacit understanding surged up in her heart, making Pei Zhuxuan a little happy, feeling so sweet that she couldn't help but want to laugh, but suddenly there was a feeling of being seen through by others and being manipulated by others.

The smiling face of that person appeared in front of his eyes.

hateful……

"Jing Yuan, it's not too late to leave after having dinner together to celebrate." Jin Junmian tried to persuade him to stay with a bit of regret, and several other members also echoed.

"I can't help it, the ticket has already been booked...I'll make it up again after I go back, brother, come treat me." Chi Jingyuan said with a smile.

"Ah, you kid is much richer than me... okay, let's celebrate again when we get back." Jin Junmian hit his shoulder with his fist, glared at him and nodded with a smile.

"Then let's go first." Chi Jingyuan said goodbye to the members, and left the venue directly with his assistant, got in the car and rushed towards the airport.

It was brought over by the assistant before the salute at the hotel, so there was no need to go back to get it.

On the way, he used his mobile phone to look at the forum on the peninsula, and found that the just-concluded 2014MAMA had already occupied all the hot search headlines. At a glance, the top of the entire hot list were all related entries.

1. Organizer of GD Stage Diss MAMA

2. MAMA was questioned for sharing pork
3. EXO's new song "Let It Be Natural"

4. EXO won the MAMA Double Awards, Taeyang's "Eyes, Nose and Mouth" won the best song of the year

5. Yuan's harmony is too perfect
6.2014MAMA's most beautiful stage

7. IU on-site awards
8.…

The 'flame' logo was displayed behind all the entries, and various comments and messages kept swiping the screen, and the popularity was so frightening that it suppressed all other news.

But it is true that there are many gimmicks in several places of today's MAMA. It is not surprising that there is such a high degree of discussion just after the end, and judging from experience, it is only the beginning, and the hottest discussion will have to wait until It will officially start tomorrow.

The time was stuck, Chi Jingyuan and his assistant boarded the plane back to the peninsula not long after arriving at the airport.

"Unnie, aren't you going back?"

It's getting late, when red velvet tidied up and was about to return to the dormitory, Jiang Seulqi noticed that Pei Zhuxuan hadn't moved all the time, she just stood there staring at the phone screen in a daze, she didn't seem to want to go back at all, she couldn't help but make a noise asked a question.

"Ah..." Pei Zhuxuan shuddered after being awakened, but quickly reacted after noticing the actions of several people, and squeezed out a smile: "You go first, I will go back later."

They were not surprised. Some time ago, when red velvet was being scolded every day at its worst, if the pressure was too great or he was holding back things, Pei Zhuxuan, who didn't like to express his feelings too much in front of them, would often be there after they returned to the dormitory. You need to practice extra in the company by yourself until you are exhausted.

This is also a way for Pei Zhuxuan to vent pressure, and several members also understand it.

"Then pay attention to safety, O'Neill, although Hui Ying O'Neill is not here these days, don't be too late." Before going out, Jiang Seulqi reminded with concern.

"Got it." Pei Zhuxuan smiled and waved her hand, nodding her head to show her reassurance.

The door of the practice room was closed with a 'bang', and she was the only one left in the lively room just now.

Seems to have gotten used to this kind of silence, Pei Zhuxuan didn't feel anything, she sat there leaning against the wall, started watching the replay of tonight's MAMA with her mobile phone, and rewinded the progress bar directly to the stage of EXO's "Let It Be" I put on the earphones and watched the performance on the mobile phone quietly, but the focus in the pupils was not concentrated, but a little loose.
I don't know how long it has been, how many times the song has been repeated, and finally interrupted by a ringtone. Pei Zhuxuan woke up suddenly, shook his head and quickly took a closer look at the phone, because his tired and quiet mind suddenly jumped stand up:

"Where are you?"
