peninsula asteroid.

"You guys are really slack!"

"Do you just want to rest after suffering a small injury? Do you want to rest after such a slight injury? Did you take your debut to heart?"

In the evening, on the left floor of JYP, just moved in for a month, in the practice room that has been marked as 'TWICE', the head manager and the dance teacher in charge of teaching are angrily reprimanding the nine girls in front of them, In this brightly lit room, only continuous and severe criticism could be heard at this time, and the faint sounds of breathing and sniffling made the surrounding atmosphere even more dignified.

Nine people from Twice stood in a row with their heads bowed and were being criticized, and the instigator of today's incident was standing in the middle at this time, and he was also the most fierce member of the manager's office, Lim Nayeon.

The reason is that she knocked her leg during dance practice these two days, resulting in a little bruise, and it hurt a little while dancing, and then she secretly complained a few words when she was chatting with Yu Dingyan just now, but unexpectedly, she was caught by the manager who just walked in I heard it, and the progress of their study and preparation of the album has been a little unsatisfactory in the past few days, which makes people a little dissatisfied, so after hearing such 'rebellious' and unprofessional small words, the manager has a backlog His anger immediately took off and he broke out.

In fact, Lin Nayeon is quite innocent. It is very common to complain about the company and other people in private with good friends. Basically, everyone will do it. She actually said it as a joke. I didn't even think about taking a few days off, and no one would be stupid enough to say that in front of an agent or manager.

It's a pity that I was really a bit confused, and just happened to be heard by the manager.

In fact, it’s just a few complaints, and it’s fine if the manager almost stares at her when they hear it, but unfortunately, the progress of their album preparation has been a bit unsatisfactory in the past two days, so they took advantage of the situation to teach them a few lessons. A girl who got 'a little bit of a drift' after she got a chance to debut.

"I found that you guys are really slack."

The head of the room looked very angry, and stared at the nine people standing in a row, scanning from left to right, and repeated what he said just now, emphasizing: "I worked so hard in "sixteen" before, and the practice room rushed to use it. , I didn’t go back to rest in the middle of the night, even though I was still practicing dance in the dormitory, I never complained of being tired after working so hard..."

His gaze finally stayed on Lin Nayeon's face: "What about now?"

The nine members of Twice all hung their heads, not daring to say a word of rebuttal.

Some pursed their lips as if they were reflecting, and some pouted their mouths in aggrieved feeling that this unwarranted disaster came a bit suddenly.

Some were sniffling, with their hands behind their backs, as if they were in a daze; others had sparkling eyes, their hands were entangled in front of them, and their rabbit teeth were not daring to show, their mouths were puckered into a ball, and they looked trapped It was very sad to scold.

Low air pressure surrounds the surroundings, and it is obvious that the manager's words are indeed a bit hurtful.

But it’s slack, but it’s not that much. They have really worked hard recently. In order to make their debut, all kinds of studies, courses, dance practice, and song practice are all full. Some members still need to go to school every day, and Learning Korean can be said to be very busy and exhausting every day.

During "sixteen", of course, I had to work harder, after all, it was related to whether I could debut or not, which determined my personal destiny. At that time, everyone could no longer use hard work to describe it, it could already be said to be desperate.

Now that I have got my debut spot, although I am still working hard, it is not as crazy as before. After all, human inertia exists, and of course it is impossible to maintain that desperate state.

"The problem with the recording these days is too big, you know how the progress is..." After a few curses, the anger in the manager's heart subsided a lot, and his tone slowed down a bit, and he began to reason: "The company specializes in The production of the program "sixteen" and the selection of nine of you are of course not just for your debut, the company has invested so much resources, and has great ambitions for you on many levels."

"Besides, you have experienced so many things and put in so much effort. Is it just for the sake of debuting casually and becoming an unpopular girl group in the second and third tiers? Are you satisfied, Nayeon?"

He specifically named Lin Nayeon.

"…no."

Eyes and nose were red, and Lin Nayen, who seemed aggrieved, sniffed her nose and muttered in a weak voice.

The braids were tied, the bangs drooped messily on both sides of the forehead, and the pores under the fair skin were clearly visible, but it was a pity that the vitality of the past had long since disappeared, and she looked like a kicked rabbit.

She really felt aggrieved, she had just casually chatted with Dingyan during the break just now, who would have thought that the agent would come in the next second.

And it wasn't for no reason that she joked that she wanted to take a few days off, because she didn't know who just mentioned it at the time...

"No? Don't you have to show your attitude! And even if you become a big trend after your debut, you definitely can't be so slack."

The manager glanced at Lin Nayeon, and couldn't say anything about her, but turned to look at other people: "You've seen the news a few days ago, even if it's Huo Cheng EXO Huo Cheng Chi Jingyuan, in the There were accidents and mistakes on the stage, and I was injured, but I still managed to finish the dance."

Speaking of this, a few children in front of him raised their heads slightly, but he paused for a moment, and then said: "We are all insiders, and I have relatives in SM, so I know some inside information, so I can Chi Jingyuan’s current status and influence in SM and XO, he can stop the performance directly after an accident and know that he is injured, but he didn’t do that after he found out the problem, he insisted on completing the stage, and was supported by the members in the end It ended up being sent directly to the hospital."

When it comes to this topic, several people are very interested, among them Zhou Ziyu and Mingjing Nan are also one of them. When the news came out late last month, Zhou Ziyu's heart skipped a beat when he saw it, and he was very anxious Concerned, he specially sent a text message to ask if Chi Jingyuan was okay, but the other party said 'no big deal', and after chatting casually for a few words, there was no reply.

The same is true of Mingjing Nan. Now she is busy preparing for her debut, and she and Chi Jingyuan only occasionally send text messages. This time, they are also very concerned, but the replies they get are similar to those of Zhou Ziyu.

And the manager seemed to praise Chi Jingyuan's behavior some time ago, and used him to teach these young girls who hadn't debuted in an appreciative tone: "This is called idol! What combination is XO? Chi Jing What kind of popularity is Yuan Yuan? After dancing five songs in a row with injuries, this is the only person who can persevere. When it comes to you, it’s just a bit of a skinny. He didn’t even make his debut. Now he’s so delicate, can he still have it in the future?”

"Nayeon?" As he spoke, he couldn't help but click Lin Nayeon's name again.

"Mi a na da."

Lin Nayen pursed her lips and apologized pitifully.

But I don't know what's on my mind.

"never mind……"

The manager scolded and scolded, and got angry. Based on his understanding of this group of children, it must be effective, and he will definitely work harder in preparation for his debut.

And seeing these girls like this, he didn't bother to say any more. He restrained his facial expressions, slowed down his voice, and gave a sweet date:
"I also know that you are all working very hard now, and you are very busy every day... let's talk about some happy things, because Park Zhenying PD nim participated in this year's "Infinite Challenge Song Festival". When the official performance is held in a few days, he decided to bring You go to watch the performance live, PD nim has already communicated with the program team, when he performs that day, the program team will specially show you some shots in the auditorium, and they will not be removed during post-editing, so that It's like using "Gayo Festival" to show your face before your debut, to cause a little topic to keep the heat..."

"!" Hearing the agent's tone slow down, all the girls breathed a sigh of relief, and then heard the news again, several of them couldn't help raising their heads, their eyes lit up.

"Have you seen "Gayo Festival"? You should know how popular it is, right?" Speaking of good things, the manager also showed a little smile.

"I know, it's really hot on the Internet, and many people are discussing it."

"I haven't seen it, I don't have much time recently..."

Seeing that the storm had passed, except for Lin Nayeon who was still in a gloomy mood, the others tentatively answered.

"This is the most popular variety show right now... If you haven't watched it, remember to go back and make up for it. It doesn't matter to others, but at least watch the clips of PD nim."

"At that time, you can feel the atmosphere of the scene. It can be regarded as making some preparations for your future debut. After the end, you may have the opportunity to visit the senior guests who participated... But you may not go, after all, everyone is very busy. I haven't debuted yet, let's see how PDnim arranges it."

Controlling the atmosphere with ease, at the end, the manager clapped his hands: "Okay, although the progress is a bit slow and we need to hurry up, but the last few days are really tiring, and watching the performance at that time can be regarded as a vacation. Take a break."

"Go ahead and practice."

"Neither, Kang Sang Mita.

…………

After a day of practice and recording, Zhou Ziyu returned to the dormitory with the eight O'Neills he composed.

"Why are you throwing your clothes all over again, can you clean them up? Also, you threw all your socks on my pillow, it stinks!"

She had finished washing before, and now she took off the mask, washed her face again, and walked out of the bathroom. Just as she walked into the living room, she heard Yu Dingyan's helpless and somewhat angry roar from the room next to the opened door , and at the same time, it was mixed with the sound of clothes being smashed and the cabinet being opened. It sounds like this sister is the same as before, and although she is complaining, her hands are also helping to clean up.

As for the object of her complaint, Zhou Ziyu knew without guessing.

"Ah ah ah ah..."

Sure enough, Lin Nayen's voice sounded right after her. She seemed to be stretched out on the bed, shouted hysterically twice, and then murmured to Yu Dingyan coquettishly and angrily: "Don't talk about me again. Well, today I'm almost pissed off! Also, my socks don't stink at all!"

"Do you smell the smell yourself?"

"Anyway! Don't take it here... It's really unlucky today, and what the manager Oppa said is too much. Although that one did insist on completing the stage, he didn't rest because of the bruise. A few days ago, I didn't say anything wrong before, it was just a joke..."

"Then why didn't you tell Oppa that?"

"You! Ahhhhh..."

"Haha."

Zhou Ziyu was unmoved by the noise coming from there. Because of the presence of Lin Nayeon and Yu Dingyan, and the occasional addition of Minozaki Saka, the four-person dormitory was basically the closest among the three separate dormitories of their twice. A hilarious one.

"Where's Mina Oni?"

Going to the living room, Son Chaeyoung, who was sitting on the sofa watching TV, looked away from Lin Nayeon and the others, and asked Minozaki Saka who was sitting next to her.

"I'm making up "Gayo Festival" on my own bed." Minozaki Saka watched the TV seriously, and said casually: "Isn't she just like that, she likes to stay on her bed when she's free, eating Everything is up there."

"Oh."

Zhou Ziyu listened to the lazy conversation of the duo on the sofa, walked behind them and took a look, and found that the two members were watching the rebroadcast of "Infinite Challenge", which was the latest episode aired today.

After looking at the back twice, Zhou Ziyu went back to his room after talking casually with the two members, closed the door, tidied up and sat on the bed.

Although their dormitory is not very big and the decoration is relatively old, the clothes and beds are neatly arranged, especially the clothes are not scattered outside, but are all stored in the closet, even the cups on the table Small things such as these are specially placed in their respective positions, and a faint fragrance lingers around. Everything looks very clean and comfortable, and it is obvious that someone often cleans it up.

In the same room, feeling the movement, Kim Da-hyun, who was lying quietly on the bed and looking at his phone, took off his earphones, looked at Zhou Ziyu and said, "PDnim's cut from "Gayo Festival", do you want Ziyu to watch it together?"

It seems that these members are very interested in the activities that the manager told them today, and they are also very obedient. After returning to the dormitory, several people are making up the part of Park Zhenying in the previous "Gayo Festival".

"Thank you, I'll see later."

Zhou Ziyu smiled and declined.

Because she not only wanted to see Park Zhenying's cut, but also wanted to see another person's cut.

Kim Dahyun nodded without saying much, put on the earphones again, and the whole room suddenly became quiet, which was in stark contrast to Lin Nayeon's bedroom.

Taking a cushion and putting it on the back, Zhou Ziyu was half lying on the bed, holding the mobile phone and putting on the earphones. When he was about to start watching, he suddenly felt that something was missing. A dog doll wearing glasses and sticking out its tongue came over, and hugged it vigorously in his arms. At first, he hugged the doll with his face flatteringly, and then bouncing. I patted the dog's head and smoothed its fur. Finally, I turned on my phone, searched, and found a personal cut video of "Gayo Festival" and watched it.

She is one of the members who don't have time to watch this show. Although "No Choice Song Festival" is really popular, it is discussed every day on the Internet, and Chi Jingyuan also participated in this show. Zhou Ziyu is very interested, but she really I didn't get a chance to take a good look at it from the beginning.

She is one of the busiest members of Twice with the most work. In addition to the same album and debut preparations as everyone else, she also has to go to school in the morning because of her age, and because of her nationality, she needs to take Korean classes. I have to make up special lessons, and the schedule is very tight every day, and I am exhausted and fulfilled and working hard for my debut.

At the beginning of "Song Festival", she found time to watch one or two episodes. Later, because she was too busy, she just watched a few clips or news intermittently on the Internet, and nothing else happened.

Now that the agent mentioned it, let's make it up.

Although the agent asked to fill in the clips of Park Zhenying...

"Is this your exclusive music room at SM?"

In the video, Jung Hyung-don and IU are looking at the surrounding environment curiously.

"Well, I used to share it with a few teachers, but maybe because I used it a lot, the company gave it to me to use."

"The equipment is really professional, and the decoration, haha, is really unique."

Following Zheng Hengdun's exclamation, Zhou Ziyu looked at the camera and looked around. The decorations in the music room obviously have anime elements, armrests, pillows, and even a hand-made picture on the desk. Giggled out.

She immediately thought of the same style of decoration in Chi Jingyuan's room when she went to EXO's dormitory, especially the bedside table full of models and figures, which she still remembers clearly.

But I heard from him that XO has changed dormitories, so I don't know if those things are still there.

The video that Zhou Ziyu watched is a cut-edited version of Chi Jingyuan's segment, and all the scenes where he shows his face are included in each issue.

Except for the first two episodes of the "Masked Ball" and the team, and the halftime communication episode of "Song Festival", the rest are basically recorded separately by each group. In the duration of about 10 minutes, each group has a share of more than ten minutes, and because there are three people in the group, Chi Jingyuan and his group may have a little more than 2 minutes, but it is not much.

This is also a point that makes Chi Jingyuan feel helpless. It takes about ten hours before and after each recording plus preparation, but the final editing only takes ten minutes, which makes people feel that a lot of time is wasted.

"Sing a slow song and express your feelings."

"Sing fast songs and be popular."

"Let's be lyrical!"

"Pop it up!"

In the picture, although Chi Jingyuan has a shy smile, but in the process of communicating with senior IU, it is you who come and go, not giving an inch, and you can clearly see persistence and confidence in the smile and dark eyes.

"The band? Speaking of the band, I happen to have a demo here, listen to it..."

"Name? I don't have a song title yet, and I haven't filled in the lyrics yet, but because of the inspiration of this song, let's call it "Star" for the time being."

Chi Jingyuan seemed to have remembered something, turned around and operated the equipment a few times, and then the half-finished piece appeared in Zhou Ziyu's ear.

It sounds really nice, but what does "Star" mean?
"I won't let you be alone, let the moon not be alone... sorry, start over."

It’s a new clip again. At this time, Zheng Hengdon and IU are watching with great interest behind the sound engineer outside, while Chi Jingyuan is trying to record the song in the recording studio, but this part has not been sung, and he feels Don't stop and veto yourself.

"I won't let you...do it all over again."

"No...sorry, start over."

During the recording, the smile he had been hanging on before naturally disappeared. The whole person was very serious, and his expression was a little serious, and he was obviously very demanding. Even he himself kept repeating it and tried it five or six times. It is considered a pass.

Zhou Ziyu kept watching silently with her lips pursed. She had never seen Chi Jingyuan who was serious about work.

She first met in the music room of the trio, and has been watching today, which is the last episode before the performance of "Gayo Festival", which was just broadcast on August 8th.

This is yesterday's chapter, I finished it in the middle of the night, sorry
