Chapter 489
"band?"

Hearing Zheng Hengdun's proposal, Chi Jingyuan and IU turned their heads to look at each other, and blinked at each other, looking quite surprised.

However, after the initial accident, after thinking about it for a while, Chi Jingyuan actually felt that this proposal was quite good.

Because their group is not two people like other groups, there are three people in their group, sometimes it seems a bit weird to perform some songs on the stage with three people, and Zheng Hengdon is not a professional singer, no matter the singing skills Still, his stage performance is definitely far behind Chi Jingyuan and IU. Purely lyrical or similar songs can easily make him have no sense of existence.

The band's words can greatly improve this situation, and the band-style pop songs are also very suitable for the atmosphere of the summer song festival.

"That's right, the stage of the three of you will be more dynamic if you are in a band, Jing Yuan and Zhi En must know a lot of instruments, right..."

After seeing the two people nodding their heads to confirm naturally, Zheng Hengdun showed excitement, and the more he talked, the more he felt that this proposal was very good, and the more he said, the more energetic he became:

"Drums, bass, and guitar are instruments that bands often use. Although I am not proficient, at least imitating a posture is definitely no problem. You must also have no problem with the other two. Jing Yuan and IU have never done it before. Let's go to the band, just take advantage of this song festival to try it out, think about that scene, you are playing the drum set on the stage, and the tens of thousands of audience below are cheering for you..."

"OKOK, bro, I understand, I understand."

Seeing that Zheng Hengdun was getting more and more excited, he had already stood up from the sofa, and when he walked to the side and wanted to pick up a bass and start to operate it by himself in advance, Chi Jingyuan hurriedly interrupted him, and said nicely. He persuaded him to come over.

However, what he said was really interesting, and at the same time, it obviously aroused the interest of Chi Jingyuan and IU.

After Jung Hyung-don sketched out a suggestion and repaid the loan and sketched out a bright future, the music room gradually became quiet, and both Ji Jingyuan and IU began to consider his proposal for a band.

Chi Jingyuan naturally leaned on the sofa, with his hands crossed over his chest and tilted his head slightly, while IU put his legs together, hugged the pillow with his hands, bowed his body and lowered his head little by little.

After a while, Chi Jingyuan felt a small movement next to him. Turning his head, he found that IU had changed his sitting position and was looking at him at the same time. play?"

"Okay, it's very interesting." IU nodded with a smile, and seemed quite interested.

"Okay, then we will definitely be a band for the first song in our group!" Zheng Hengdun made the decision directly, very excitedly slapped hard on the sofa, and then looked like he was done, facing Chi Jingyuan and IU. The man stretched out his hand to clap, and after the two clapped each other with him, they smiled and clapped each other again.

"Speaking of... wait a minute."

Speaking of this, Chi Jingyuan suddenly remembered something, walked to the side and operated the computer, while explaining to the two people who looked over curiously:

"Speaking of the band, I have a demo that I haven't finished before. I think it's pretty good, and the overall style is quite in line with the theme of our band this time. Listen to it. If you think it's OK, I can do it directly on it. If you modify it, you don’t need to write another song specifically.”

"Is there a finished product already? That's great!" Zheng Hengdun was a little surprised, and immediately sat up straight,
And IU next to her also nodded with a pursed smile, looking very expectant.

"Music~~~"

Chi Jingyuan gestured to the two of them, and then directly clicked play.

Although sometimes it may not be useful, but if he has inspiration or ideas, he will try to write some songs in his spare time. This is a very common habit for composers, like IU a few days ago In a short period of time, she sent him three or four demos. Judging by the speed, she obviously has a lot in stock, not all of them are written now.

There are quite a few pieces in Chi Jingyuan’s library that were inspired by this kind of inspiration. If he thinks it’s good, he’ll try to perfect it and make a finished product. Come out and listen.

Jung Hyung-don and IU listened carefully to this passage without lyrics and without a perfect song. Afterwards, they glanced at each other, and coincidentally found the light in each other's eyes and the surprise of meaning.

"It feels very good. It's exactly what I want, but it feels a little slow." Zheng Hengdun spoke out first, his eyes wide open and he seemed satisfied, but he still raised his opinion.

"The melody is very good. I think several bridges sound very comfortable. If you change it a little bit, it will be the style of the band." IU obviously understands a little better than Zheng Hengdun, and looked over with bright eyes.

"Well, it's because the style is relatively close. If I'm sure, I'm going to add some percussion music to the interlude for embellishment, and then make the tempo in the middle a little faster, reduce the content of EDM, and increase the use of instruments. ..."

Seeing the reactions and expressions of the two, Chi Jingyuan knew in his heart that it was almost the same. After nodding his head, he gave a general introduction with a smile, and then added a sentence specifically looking at IU:
"There is also a piano version of this song DEMO, because at first I actually thought of making it into a lyrical song... If it feels OK, I can also make the first chorus into a lyrical version, so that First, the contrast and excitement brought to the audience will be more obvious..."

"Okay, that's it, that's it..." Zheng Hengdun saw Chi Jingyuan, who was very serious, and began to communicate with IU with great interest. After listening for a long time, he finally couldn't help it, and found a gap to interrupt After leaving him, he wanted to make a decision on his behalf with a big wave of his hand, and then asked: "Jing Yuan, does this song have a name now?"

"Not yet, I haven't filled in the words yet, but the inspiration comes from looking at the stars, so let's call it "Stars" for now." Chi Jingyuan smiled and shook his head, then looked at IU and asked: "Then this ?”

"This is really good, I agree!" IU nodded quickly and raised her hand, looking very happy.

"OK, then this is the one for sure."

Zheng Hengdun was very excited about the rapid progress this time, after applauding vigorously, he explained to Chi Jingyuan Capital with an expression of anticipation and expectation: "Jing Yuan, then this band song will be entrusted to you. "

"Don't worry bro."

Chi Jingyuan made an OK gesture, and sat back on the sofa from the computer: "The next shooting... Let's do it next time, and try to get it when I can make it."

He didn't dare to say too much.

With the deepening of the filming of "Infinite Challenge", Chi Jingyuan has become more and more serious about this song festival. Since he has chosen to participate, he must devote his energy to it as an important thing. He didn't want to spend a long time and finally come up with a song like the songs in the previous song festivals, which felt crude and obviously a bit improvised.

He can't lower his reputation, and he doesn't want to let down the fans and audience who have great expectations for this song festival after his participation.

Then we can only treat it carefully.

The demo presented by Chi Jingyuan got all three people to vote for it, so one of the two songs was directly confirmed. Today's progress is already half completed. After a short celebration with drinks, the three The individual quickly discussed the theme of another song.

Chi Jingyuan was in charge of the band's song, and IU was naturally responsible for the other song, which was a tacit understanding.

"...Does Zhien still insist on expressing feelings in summer?"

"Not necessarily. I think what you said before is quite reasonable. Fast songs and dance music are indeed more suitable for that occasion."

"I think you should try to make a change and make a special stage. I remember that you haven't tried short hair style much before? Why don't you just imitate Matilda this time, the song festival is just for fun."

"Is "This Killer Is Not So Cold"? I am Matilda, and Jing Yuanxi is Leon? What are you, bro?"

"The perverted policeman?"

"Oh, by the way, speaking of Leon, I happen to have a piece of music here, which was co-created by me and my friends. Come and listen to it..."

"..."

Today, the trio's communication went very smoothly. After several hours of discussion, Chi Jingyuan and the others had already determined the theme style of the two songs that their group needed to create in this song festival, and even each There are already demo samples that are confirmed to be used.

The progress was so fast that the "Infinite Challenge" program team was a little unresponsive. After the program team arrived, they communicated with the writer about the content of today's filming, and directly took the topics and conversations discussed by the three of them just now as today's issue Filmed script.

"Goodbye."

"Thanks for your hard work."

"Jing Yuan will come out for dinner when he is free in two days, and so will Zhi En."

Today's filming didn't come to an end until after nine o'clock in the evening. Chi Jingyuan, the program crew who packed up their things and were about to leave, and the other two crew members bid farewell politely.

Before he left, Zheng Hengdun specially sent out an invitation, Chi Jingyuan and Li Zhien didn't refuse, they both agreed with a smile.

After everyone else left, Chi Jingyuan sat back in front of the computer, opened a document and meditated.

Today's discussion was very smooth and tacit, which unknowingly ignited enthusiasm in his heart. When shooting just now, he was occasionally distracted thinking about the unfinished demo. At this time, the program team had just left him. I couldn't hold back any longer, and got ready to try to change the song in front of the computer.

Or write some lyrics.

For Ji Jingyuan, the Korean version of the lyrics is actually very easy. Kpop songs themselves don’t pay much attention to this. As long as it fits the theme and the pronunciation is in place, there is no problem.

If you want to go a little deeper, you can start with stories or feelings, and the wording is more complicated, from simple repetitive lyrics to narrative.

But just when Chi Jingyuan was about to try to write something, he suddenly remembered something.

He seems to have an appointment at night, and Zhou Ziyu's mother wants to invite him to dinner...

Thinking of this incident, he couldn't help but patted his head. He was a little confused after being busy in the morning and now he was shooting for a whole day. He quickly grabbed the mobile phone next to him, and after opening it, he found that Zhou Ziyu had sent a message "shooting" 10 minutes ago. Is it over? Remember to tell me when it's over." text message, but it was still being recorded just now, so I didn't see it.

"Just finished working, do you still want to eat?" After he replied, he stood up and put on his clothes, locked the door and went out without much packing.

Let's clean it up tomorrow.

"Of course! We've all booked our seats and arrived."

Zhou Ziyu replied quickly, obviously waiting all the time.

"Well, send me the address, I'll go there now."

"76th Street, Daoshan Mainland, Jiangnan District..."

Seeing the address and the name of the restaurant behind it, Chi Jingyuan felt a little familiar, and asked tentatively: "Which Sichuan restaurant did you order?"

This is a well-known Chinese restaurant in Cheongdam-dong. Its main focus is slightly improved Sichuan cuisine. Chi Jingyuan went there once with Jin Junmian and the others.

The taste is good, and the decoration is also very tasteful. At the same time, because it is in a prosperous area, the price is naturally quite expensive.

"Yeah, my mother asked me what you like to eat, and I said that you like to eat a lot of things, but you prefer Sichuan cuisine a little bit, so she specifically chose a famous one nearby."

"OK, got it."

After Chi Jingyuan came out of the music room, he called his assistant Cui Zhichang who had been waiting in the company. After getting in the nanny car, he signaled him to start the car and go back to the dormitory first, while sending a text message to reply.

Zhou Ziyu's mother is considered an elder, and if she sees the elders, although it is already late, it is still necessary to go back and change her clothes, and at the same time remove the slightly heavier makeup that was put on because of the shooting.

"Tell me when you arrive, and I'll go out to pick you up."

"Don't, you are not an amateur anymore, you are not asking for trouble if you are recognized... Tell me the room number of the box, and I will go in directly."

"Oh well, we're..."

……

Back in the dormitory, Chi Jingyuan took off his make-up, washed his face, put on a pair of flat glasses, changed into a casual white shirt and light-colored trousers, and then took the nanny car again to the eating place that Zhou Ziyu sent him.

Wearing a disguise such as a hat and a mask, I got out of the car and walked into the restaurant. After asking the waiter about the location of the box, I walked over directly, stood in front of the closed door of the room, paused, exhaled lightly, and reached out to knock .

"Dong dong dong."

"Come on!"

The sound insulation of the room didn't seem to be very good. In addition to the crisp answering sound, Chi Jingyuan could also clearly hear the continuous muffled sound of shoes stepping on the ground getting closer and closer.

The door was opened with a bang, and the white light in the room was a little dazzling. At the same time, the person who appeared against the light appeared in front of him. With a blink of an eye, a bright smile was embedded on his face, Zhou Ziyu who couldn't be driven away.

"hey-hey."

Seeing Chi Jingyuan after opening the door, Zhou Ziyu grinned, and then quickly stepped aside to signal him to come in quickly.

As Chi Jingyuan walked in, he took off the hat and mask on his head, and at the same time looked into the box naturally.

It was different from what he had imagined before, because during the live broadcast of "sixteen" yesterday, he saw several of Zhou Ziyu's family members come. Apart from his mother, there were relatives who appeared to be brothers and sisters. Chi Jingyuan thought that they would all come today. Yes, I didn't expect that Zhou's mother was alone at this time.

Zhou's mother looks about forty generations old. Although there are obvious traces of time and medical beauty on her face due to her age, she is dressed in a fashionable dress, with long brown hair and shiny chains. The earrings looked very fashionable, and the workmanship and brand of the clothes on her body were obviously not cheap.

The noses of the mother and daughter are quite similar, but Zhou Ziyu's facial features are obviously better than blue in general, and he cleverly absorbed the advantages of both parents in terms of appearance.

Zhou's mother had already stood up from her seat when Chi Jingyuan walked in, with a bright smile on her face, and at the same time secretly scrutinized Chi Jingyuan who was approaching.

After he took off the mask, Zhou's mother's eyes shrank slightly and then flashed, she seemed a little surprised.

At this time, Zhou Ziyu, who had closed the door, bounced to his mother's side, hugged the arm of the standing mother Zhou, blinked twice with big eyes, hesitated for a while, and didn't know what to say.

Just when she was a little embarrassed but was about to come out and introduce her, Zhou's mother spoke up. She didn't have the shyness and impoliteness of her daughter at all, and looked at Chi Jingyuan with a smile and took the initiative to say hello: "Yuan is here." , sit down quickly..."

"Auntie calls me Chi Jingyuan, or Jing Yuan."

Chi Jingyuan walked to the seat two vacant seats away from Zhou's mother, and didn't take the lead to sit down. Instead, he half-smiled and shook his hands in embarrassment, and glanced at Zhou Ziyu on the side: " I know Zhou Ziyu very well, and you are also an elder, so don't be so polite."

"Ha, then I'll call you Jing Yuan. This name is really good. It sounds very artistic. Sit down and you're welcome."

After hearing Chi Jingyuan's words, Zhou's mother also felt his attitude from the other party. She nodded and smiled in response, then stretched out her hand to signal Chi Jingyuan to sit down, and smiled even brighter when the other party still didn't move. One point, so she took the opportunity to sit down first, and Chi Jingyuan then followed and sat down after reaching out her hand again to signal.

Immediately afterwards, she showed a surprised gaze, looked at Chi Jingyuan who had lifted the frame of the mirror, and praised:

"However, Jingyuan, your Chinese is really good. I didn't believe it when I told you my baby... Tzuyu, but now after listening to it, I realize that your spoken language is indeed so good. I completely listen to it. If you don’t come out, you’re a foreigner.”

Zhou's mother was both surprised and sincerely praised Chi Jingyuan's Chinese proficiency, but when she mentioned the word "baby" to refer to her daughter, Zhou Ziyu, who was holding her arm next to her, obviously felt a little awkward and embarrassed, He furtively gave his mother a hug, and Zhou's mother understood instantly and changed her words immediately.

This mother and daughter are really close enough.
