Chapter 418 you come and I go
On the morning of the 24th, SM's official SNS account took the lead in releasing the group promotional poster for the first release of EXO's third single album "O".

This promotional pictorial uses the photos taken together by Chi Jingyuan and the others when they were wearing football jerseys to shoot the MV.

In a background similar to the locker room of a team, nine members stand shoulder to shoulder in front of the camera. The protective gear and shoulder pads cover the football jersey to make everyone look strong, and they are all in dark blue. The baseball cap, together with the worn marks on the clothes, looks very professional as a whole, as if they just finished a game and just left the field.

The combination of sports style and handsomeness makes people's eyes bright. The two incandescent lamps above the head are bright and brilliant, but the light behind and around them is dim and dark. The light and darkness form a sharp contrast in the composition, which sets off this pictorial It's very textured.

The middle position at the top of the pictorial is marked with the characters "EXO, "O", "love me right"" in artistic fonts, which is an introduction and announced the title of the main song "love me right".

"Ah, this promotional poster is really handsome."

"Another iconic back number, Yuan is 5, Sehun is 94, and Suho is 01. I remember them all. When I saw this song, I really dreamed of "Roar" for 13 years. Could it be a song of similar style? ?"

"Football uniforms? What does this mean? Is it a new concept? It's really exciting."

The lighting and composition of this poster is indeed very good, and the rugby jersey also brings a visual impact to people. Immediately after the announcement, fans who have been looking forward to it for a long time have left messages. Most of them think that the pictorial is shot Great and looking forward to returning in a week.

Chi Jingyuan saw it and thought it was pretty good, but he didn't understand that the style of the title song "love me right" is biased, cheerful, lively and fresh, and the lyrics are about driving with the one you like, just like roaming The story of the night sky universe has nothing to do with rugby, but the focus of the single MV and posters is rugby.

However, the discussion of this news is less. "Music Bank" has not had a high ratings nowadays, and the MC of the music show is not very important. Many viewers watch the music show to watch their favorite idol. As for the stage, few people care who the MC is at all. Many people even think that the MC is not pleasing to the eye when watching the live broadcast, so they don't watch the phone or switch channels and skip it.

After SM released the announcement in the morning, YG also released a promotional poster for bigbang's comeback at noon.

Although last year, members fell in love and left the group in a row, which led to a lot of trouble, and the momentum of the serious decline in word-of-mouth and fandom was interrupted in an instant, but in this year's carefully planned monthly comeback, with "E" and "X" "It can be regarded as sweeping away the previous decline and even better than before, and it can't help but make people look forward to their next two albums.

You should know that apart from the latter 'Popularity Award' which is voted by fans, the first two awards are very valuable awards. The "Newcomer Award" can only be won once by an actor. In addition, especially the "Best Actor Award" ', this award is regarded as one of the highest honors that male actors in the field of Peninsula TV dramas can get. Other than that, everything else was basically taken care of by a group of well-known seniors.

Although there are no photos of the members, they seem inexplicably high-end, which made their fans very satisfied, and they left messages below to shout for the return of the king.

"Okay, you still complain about us, so I won't tell you! (Goodbye)"

The only connection is that the MV and the stage costumes are American-style campus style, which barely matches the rugby uniforms.

"What about sales?" After a while, Jin Zhongda asked worriedly.

As soon as the news came out, Chi Jingyuan directly put his phone back, ignoring the vibration that soon came from his pocket, picked up his chopsticks and started eating.

"Can the one upstairs stop being funny? Did you watch TV dramas last year? You are a little younger, but "Misheng" became popular like that, so it's normal to be selected as the leading actor?"

As a result, yesterday's "sixteen" press conference naturally didn't attract much attention.

The latter two "Popularity Awards" and "Newcomer Awards" are fine, but Chi Jingyuan, who was born in 94, was nominated for the "Best Actor" award at the age of 22, which really shocked people. Surprised, it immediately aroused a lot of discussion.

"Watching EXO for the past two months was a bit annoying, but it finally became exciting. One is that the second generation is the hottest boy group before, and the other is that the third generation is the hottest now. Is this a handover from the old to the new? Top fight?"

This time is their first big group comeback after nearly three years, and they are doing a world tour and singing songs every month. Even though several members in it have various scandals, they have not affected fans. and the expectations of passers-by.

Chi Jingyuan read the text message while drinking water, and understood.

On the 28th, SM announced that EXO will hold corresponding celebrations and rewarding activities for EXO-L’s official app with more than 400 million registered fans. YG also announced the official start of the official recruitment for the fifth VIP fancafe, and announced the date of bigbang’s return to the initial stage.

Plus one more tubing click at most.

That is, the name 'Chi Jingyuan' appeared in the list of TV drama nominations one after another, and it was very eye-catching at first glance.

"Bigbang's debut stage is on the 3rd "Inkigayo". Couldn't it be because I heard that you became the MC of "Music Bank", and I was afraid that it would be our home field?" Wu Shixun wiped his mouth and looked at it with a smile Looking at Chi Jingyuan and asked.

There has never been a song-playing program that has gained a lot of popularity or significantly increased the ratings because of the fixed MC, so not many people pay attention to it.

The scene was not too big or small, because JYP's name went to a lot of interviews, but it was a pity that the response was mediocre, and there were not many splashes on the Internet.

No matter what Chi Jingyuan thinks in his heart and whether he doesn't care, many people in the Peninsula entertainment circle still think that the actor's quality and will be higher. Fans don't care if they can win an award in the end. The great success of an idol transformed into an actor, not to mention the many benefits it will bring to the protagonist, even when he is tearing up with the opponent online, he will be much tougher.

"Of course I didn't say it... But in fact, there is something in my heart, hehehe..."

If you have it, you will boast and brag, if you don’t have it, you will scold and satirize it. This is the case every year.

In addition to Ji Jingyuan of EXO, Do Kyungsoo was also selected for two awards for his main role in "It's Okay, It's Love" last year. Both members of a group appeared on the list and immediately attracted Ai Li. Excited cheers.

In the process of constantly preparing for the comeback and the concert, nearly a week passed in the blink of an eye. At noon on the 30th, the EXO group had just participated in the on-site promotional activity of the ice cream brand Baskin Robbins, and found a restaurant nearby to prepare for lunch. Before the dishes were served, Chi Jingyuan turned out his phone, and looked at the text messages he had received during the previous event and had not been answered, which was sent by Zhou Ziyu.

The two companies and the two groups were chasing after each other, each showing their own special abilities. Various materials and resources were continuously invested, and the battle line was very long. The battle lasted for more than a week, which dazzled the fans of the two groups and countless passers-by. At the same time, it can't help igniting a great sense of anticipation and attention. It has become the focus of discussions in various hot searches in the entertainment section, fan clubs and major forums.

And EXO is the most popular boy group in the peninsula and even in Asia in the past two years. It became popular in the peninsula in the second year of its debut, and once again reached a million sales after many years. , extremely strong combat effectiveness and very loyal, and there are extremely popular TOP members in the team. The whole group seems to stand out among the three generations of boy groups that have debuted in recent years.

At the same time, more and more positive reviews have also improved some of EXO's reputation in music. Many of the ballads they released before have seen a significant increase in listening volume during this period. "Let It Be" has been on the charts for some time. The songs "Butterfly Girl" even returned to the list.

In fact, he watched it. Even though he was very busy yesterday, he ran a lot of schedules and took Son Seung Wan to the first recording of "boy with love" at night, he still took time to pay attention.

On the 26th, SM released the title of the second song included in "O" called "Orientation Sniper". YG opened the pre-sale channel of "M", congratulated the bigbang world tour concert in Seoul, and released BIGBANG member Jiang Dacheng's birthday congratulations picture.

"... (lip curls)"

Fans came off the stage to support each other, and passers-by watched and cheered while fueling the fire, and there was an uproar for a while.

But the pictorial is good-looking, and it is enough to play a publicity role.

"Why YG, Bigbang, a group of legal coffee and bad artists can return? I look forward to EXO stepping on bigbang to reach the top of the TOP!"

"Indeed, although 22 years old is indeed a bit younger, but if Zhang Klai was selected as the character of "Unborn", I think it is normal. The TV series is well filmed, which has a great impact and even changed the law. Chi Jingyuan played It is also very good, full of emotions, expressions and eyes are very good, facing Li Xingmin and several powerful supporting actors, I have not been suppressed. I can still vividly remember several scenes, so objectively speaking, there is absolutely no problem with the nomination. If it's an idol drama like "The Heirs" that doesn't have much connotation, purely pretending to be handsome, it definitely won't work...

Jin Junmian, who was sitting opposite, seemed to be under a lot of pressure, frowning with a bad expression: "Don't be so optimistic, this time we really don't necessarily win the fight."

The young actor Ji Jingyuan who was born as an idol has been shortlisted for "Best Actor", "Best New Actor Award" and "Best Popular Actor Award' Three Awards

And Chi Jingyuan, who was a little full of food, just took a sip of water, and was a little speechless by his brain hole, put down the water glass and glanced at it contemptuously: "How is it possible, are you an idiot, being an MC is the home game ? And he is a big senior, so he came back and bumped into us and wanted to take the initiative to visit us to give away the album, and we have to salute when we meet, okay?"

After the list came out, people soon discovered a surprising thing about the nominations for this year's "Baekxiang" TV drama awards.

At this time, the food had been brought to the table by the waiter, Chi Jingyuan glanced at it, and was about to end this chat first.

……

After listening to the analysis of several people, the cheerful and lively atmosphere just now has been reduced a little, and the most optimistic people are a little silent for a while.

Speaking of which, Chi Jingyuan hasn't heard from her senior for a long time, and I don't know if her TV series has finished filming.

The overall appearance of bigbang is mediocre. They were also known as the 'ugliest boy group' when they debuted. At the same time, they have been accompanied by various scandals in recent years, but they still have so many fans and nationality because of the quality of music. Yes, even if many people hate or dislike them, they will still listen to their songs. The huge passer-by of this sound source accumulated over the years is here, and it is difficult for EXO who has just reversed its reputation.

The results in other aspects are all extended from these two indicators.

In addition, there is another piece of news that was directly on the hot search today, and this time it is not just in the music industry.

From the 24th to the present, these days SM and JYP have released new news every day, EXO and bigbang have come and gone for various promotions, it can be said that all the layouts and popularity of the music industry in the past week have been dominated by these two combinations occupied.

The performance of an idol group can be defined from many aspects, such as the number of tour mobilizers, endorsement fees, search index, number of first places, etc., but the most intuitive are only two indicators, one is the source of music, and the other is sales.

Some time ago, a preview was made and all members were made public, and JYP and Mnet also jointly held a press conference for the girl group survival talent show "sixteen" on April 4. The concept and general process of the show were introduced at the meeting , released the makeup photos of all the participating trainees, and finally announced that the program will be officially broadcast on Mnet on May 29.

As one of the three major award ceremonies in the peninsula film and television industry, and also the most valuable award in TV dramas, the list naturally attracted a lot of attention as soon as it came out.

Chi Jingyuan took out his mobile phone and looked at today's trending searches, curled his lips and said, ""Love Me Right" is a pure dance song, I don't think the sound source can beat Bigbang, it depends on its popularity and nationality. Here, this is what makes a living, I even think that the sound source score of "Orientation Sniper" will be better than "Love Me Right"."

Park Junsu and Bora have been regular MCs for more than a year, but now if you ask some KPOP fans, they probably don't know that "Music Bank" is them.

"Ah, XO is really big, Yuan and DO were both selected for the 'Popularity Award' and 'Newcomer Award', it's really amazing, Oppa fighting! We will definitely vote for you!"

On April 4th, SM opened the "O" pre-sale channel, and the frantic crowd of orders caused the webpage to freeze for an hour, while YG announced the album version of the first single "M" and the price was 25 won.

bigbang itself was once a TOP boy group. Their unique music style has been loved by many people. Although they haven’t come back in the past two years, the individual solos of the members have not been interrupted one after another. Although there is no response like Li Shengli, but There are also solo awards like Quan Zhilong and Taiyang, and the popularity has continued without interruption.

"I also think, to be honest, I think the title song of our "O" is a relatively ordinary song among the four single albums. "boy with love" I think it is very promising. And it is the first comeback this time, in order to get off to a good start, all resources will be invested the highest. At the same time, the songs must be carefully selected, and it is the first time in three years Returning... We are already very strong in terms of popularity." Jin Junmian also nodded, calming down the few members who were already a little smug because of their continuous performance in the past two months.

The collision between the old and new generations of TOP boy groups is the hottest topic these days. The boss fights with the second child, and the poor third and fourth are simply forgotten. As a result, other entertainers who have returned to normal during this period and other entertainment news are very popular. It's hard to win the page, unless it's something like Senior Yuner's going all out to make a love affair, then it is possible to attract attention.

On the 27th, SM released the "love me right" teaser video, and at the same time released the second version of the promotional pictorial and the date of XO's first comeback stage, while YG LIFE released the teaser and pictorial of bigbang's comeback countdown D-4 and D-3taeser, and announced the new song "LOSER" Songwriter information.

And the nomination does not mean that you will win the award. Judging from the list, the competition is still very fierce. Whether it is Zhao Yincheng or Chi Sheng, I think the chances are higher than him, but I think Chi Jingyuan can also accept the award. After all, it is Zhang Keli. "

Bigbang's promotional poster this time is a simple style, with black letters on a red background, and five horizontal lines in the middle neatly arranged to show the main logo of this comeback. The black artistic font below is written with the group name of bigbang,

However, there are also some fans who are very curious about the modifier "same company", and have made a lot of guesses. Some people even think of EXO and red velvet, but not many people believe it.

Zhou Ziyu replied with an ellipsis and an expression to express her dissatisfaction, but her dissatisfaction only lasted for a few tens of seconds, and she quickly followed up with a message: "But after the press conference, it seems that there are not many discussions on the Internet. I also heard a lot of people complaining, saying that the Internet is full of your news these days, and the popularity of "sixteen" has been completely suppressed."

"So did you complain?"

On April 4th, SM unveiled the poster for the first version of EXO's single album "O", and announced the title of the title song "love me right".While releasing the pictorial, YG once again explained the comeback mode and announced the release of a full-length album in September.

At the same time, YG also sent multiple announcements in succession. In addition to wishing the success of the two-day bigbang world tour concert in Seoul on the 24th and 25th, it also explained the comeback mode of bigbang again, and determined that every May-August A single album will be released in September, and a regular album will be released in September.

"Indeed." Chi Jingyuan took a wet wipe from Bian Boxian, wiped his mouth and nodded in agreement.

Without even thinking about it, Chi Jingyuan replied "No."

The two major companies successively announced the comeback news of the two hottest boy groups, EXO and bigbang, and they also just chose the same day, one after the other. The needle-tip-to-wheat feeling made their respective fans look forward to it, and while excited and ignited their fighting spirit, it also greatly attracted the attention of passers-by.

"Did you watch our press conference yesterday?"

Bian Baekhyun distributed a wet wipe to everyone, blinked his eyes after hearing the discussion, and expressed his opinion: "I think it's okay, "Spring Day" has such a good reputation as a sound source, and the popularity hasn't diminished much until now. There are a lot of compliments on the Internet now."

"Is there any mistake? You can nominate 'Shidi' at such a young age? You are still an idol. What are the organizers doing? Seeing that Chi Jingyuan is too popular, is it to increase popularity and ratings?"

On the 29th, SM uploaded the third edition of the promotional pictorial, and at the same time disclosed the songwriter information of the two songs "love me right" and "Orientation Snipe" included in "O".And YG released the D-1 countdown pictorial, announced the songwriter information of the new song "BAE BAE", and informed that the MV of the new song is [-] bans, and it was on the hot search again.

Today’s press releases continue, and the trending searches are changing one after another, which seems to indicate that the peninsula music scene will soon enter the middle of the year and summer, and it will become more and more exciting. To a limited number of voices.

The popular movies and TV series that were released and aired throughout last year were nominated one after another, which made many concerned movie fans and passers-by viewers all interested. They began to study the shortlists of various awards, and watched their favorite movies and TV series, or whether the actors were interested. Did not appear in the list.

"Spring Day" has occupied the first place in Melon's daily and weekly charts since the sound source's counterattack, and won the weekly melon chart that week. Even after the end of playing songs, XO was completely absent. Play a song.Although the follow-up popularity has dropped from the first place in the music source, it has still become a nail in the inner ring of the major music source lists, firmly occupying a position in the top ten.

After eating for a long time until I was full with wine and food, the conversations of the surrounding members gradually increased.

"Support bigbang! I've been unhappy watching EXO for a long time, seniors should teach the newcomers well."

"Haha, Brother Suho did this kind of thing anyway..." Wu Shixun seemed to be in a good mood, and laughed happily even after being scolded.

Finally, "Music Bank" announced that Park Joon-soo and Yoon Bo-ra will get off the car today, and that the new regular MC will appear in the next issue, and they did not name their names, but they showed that the two regular MCs this time are from the same company.

The organizer of "Baeksang Arts Awards", Nikkan Sports, announced the "Baeksang" through the media and SNS official account on the 24th, including the list of nominations for all awards in the film department and TV drama department.

"That's enough."

"Sales? Sales is of course our strength, they can't beat us."

Chi Jingyuan laughed when he heard that, and when he saw that everyone was ready to leave after eating, he stood up while talking, and carried the shoulder bag on the stool next to him, the sun shines through the window and printed on his face, Let him cover his eyes a little harshly, shook his head and chuckled, and added casually:
"No one can beat us."

…………

Half a day passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye, it was close to midnight at night, and at this time, I don’t know how many Alice or VIPs, and even the passers-by and audience who had been waiting for a long time took out their mobile phones or sat in front of the computer in anticipation. Waiting for the moment when the hour hand reaches zero, that is the time when both EXO and bigbang will release their comeback music sources at the same time.
