Chapter 86 Stage Preparation
In addition to members and managers, there are choreographer, vocal teacher and stage effect planner in the practice room.

Twelve people had just finished dancing "MAMA", and they were standing together panting slightly, listening to the evaluation of several teachers.

"The improvement is really great. It's much better than when you first debuted. I don't even want to watch the stage when you first debuted. Your performance is too bad."

"The current progress is really good. There are a few members who have improved significantly, especially Yuan. I remember that when you debuted, your dancing skills came in a sudden. At that time, it seemed a little sluggish, but now it is much better. Your body proportions It's very good, it feels good to dance."

"Let's not talk about Kai, Lay and a few lead dancers. Your dance skills have always been very good, and you have improved during this period. But a few members are obviously weaker. Baekhyun and Chen, you two practice time. It was short, and the progress during this period has not been great, and the gap with the members has obviously widened, should I work hard to know in private?"

"Inside."

The members listened humbly to the teachers' comments, and nodded in agreement.

When EXO made their debut, their strength was ridiculed by the crowd. Many people ridiculed them as the group with poor strength and the most money-losing group, but they were right, some stages during their debut period looked really ordinary.

After a lot of practice during this period of free time, the overall strength of the group has improved a lot, and it is obviously much stronger than when it debuted.

The few members who were praised had good expressions, and Chi Jingyuan still maintained his iconic smile, only the two who were criticized by name did not look very good.

"In the next month, Team K will not have a lot of schedules. There will be no TV live broadcast activities. There will only be some commercial performances and announcements. In addition to the scheduled activities in Xiaguo, Team M will have more free time than before. There are a lot more, so during this time everyone has to work hard to practice for the end of the year stage."

"The Mnet Asian Music Awards, also known as the MAMA Awards Ceremony, will be held on November 11th. The company has communicated and publicized with the organizers. We, EXO, have basically secured this year's Newcomer Award and won nearly 30 minutes of performance time. That's pretty high on the playing time for everyone that's on the stage."

"In terms of MAMA's ratings and topicality, this is a very good exposure opportunity, and the company has devoted a lot of resources to it. You must practice hard and seize this opportunity to increase your popularity."

"Nai, we will definitely work hard, thank the company for its attention." The members saluted and responded in succession. The first sentence was said together, and the second thank you was said by the team leader Jin Junmian.

Manager Lee Seung-hwan introduced the situation to everyone, exhorted a little excitedly, and finally added a sentence: "The company has already discussed the special performance on the stage. Next, I will let Mr. Li Zhongmin, the stage effect planner, talk to you."

The stage effect planner Lee Jongmin, who had been standing by the side, stood up and nodded to the members, who also saluted.

Li Zhongmin is also a very familiar person. He has participated in many stages of EXO, and the dance and vocal teachers next to him are the same. After practice on many special stages before, they will be asked to evaluate and give opinions together.

So there is no politeness, just go straight to the topic.

"This time the performance lasted nearly 7 minutes and was divided into four parts."

"First of all, there is the 12-person stage of the title song "MAMA", about three minutes and 30 seconds. Because the location of the award ceremony this time is in Xiaguo Hong Kong Island, and the M team is very popular in Xiaguo, so the stage performance this time It’s going to be about the M team, and I’ve done some new choreography for them.”

"Then there's the HOT song "Descendants of the Warrior", which is scheduled to last for 40 seconds."

"The last two special cover stages, EXO will be divided into two teams to perform separately, this time the company decided not to divide the teams according to K and M, but let K and M each have three people to form a team."

"First of all, there is the first cover stage, performing TVXQ's classic song "Mantra". The participating members are Yuan, Kai, and Sehun Wu from Team K, and Tao, Chen, and Xiumin from Team M. Start directly from the second chorus The performance is usually about 1 minute, and the dance teacher has already done the choreography for the 6-person stage."

Lee Jongmin introduced EXO's stage design at the ceremony, and then looked at Ji Jingyuan and said: "On the stage of "The Curse", in the second chorus of Changmin's high-pitched part, I hope you will sing it, although before EXO You basically don't sing high notes on the stage, but we know your singing ability, so there must be no problem."

"After the cover stage this time, this performance should attract a lot of attention. The company will invest some resources to create a strong and all-round image for you, so that the public will have a fuller impression of you...Of course, your strength It’s really strong and versatile.”

Li Zhongmin looked at Chi Jingyuan as he spoke, and smiled, with an expression of appreciation in his eyes.

"Neither, Kang Sang Mita."

Chi Jingyuan smiled and nodded, expressing his gratitude to the company for his trust and the other party's praise.

In terms of dancing, Chi Jingyuan is hard to say, his strength can only be considered good but not top-notch, but he has practiced for many years in singing, and his personal talent is also very good. This kind of high note is not very difficult for him.

"The cover song performed by the other six members who are not named is "Lucifer" by SHINee, and it is often about 1 minute long."

"SHINee will appear on stage in the last 30 seconds of the stage, complete the final stage with us EXO, then we will exit, and then it will be their performance time."

"So for the last part of the performance, the two groups EXO and SHINee have to coordinate time to practice together..."

"Recently, apart from Yuan's relationship with the TV series, EXO has not been exposed much. This time the opportunity is very good. Everyone must work hard to show the best of yourself for your fans, and continue to aim at becoming a dazzling star. Go forward!"

Li Zhongmin finally made a conclusion, his tone was a little excited, and he gave everyone blood.

The members of EXO are also very excited, especially the members of Team K. The MAMA ceremony has become more and more popular in recent years, and the audience has also increased. For them who have not had much exposure, this opportunity is indeed very good.

After chatting for a while, EXO began to learn the dance of the special stage under the guidance of several choreographers, and began to practice seriously for this performance.
