there is a problem.

Before explaining the problem, you need to calculate the time first, because it is a problem caused by time.

"When the Camellia Blooms" has already aired four episodes, which means it is now the end of September, and Bae Joo-hyun will have to work for a few more days.
If nothing unexpected happens, the two's departure date will be during the National Day Golden Week in China.

Going and coming back is not a problem. There is never a shortage of people traveling from China to Seoul, and flights are running one after another.

The real problem is the number of people.

There are many people in Shanghai, and it is also a very famous tourist destination in China. In addition, if Chen Chen and Bae Joo-hyun insist on joining the crowd during the Golden Week holiday, they may have a slightly bad travel experience.

So Chen Chen hesitated, wondering whether he should just change the place.

"I don't think we should change it." Pei Zhuxuan expressed her opinion while selecting a TV channel. "You may feel sorry that you can't show me the best side of me, but that's not the case."

"My expectations must not be as high as yours, because I don't know the place."

"A strange country, a strange place, every scene is fresh and interesting, and this is enough to support my travel pleasure."

"Moreover"

“Traveling doesn’t necessarily mean seeing something. The people around you, the local culture and customs, and the temperament displayed by others are all interesting things.”

"Let's go to Shanghai and see what other international first-tier cities are like. I've been in Seoul for too long."

"How about just treating it as a trip back home?" Pei Zhuxuan turned to look at Chen Chen, her eyes sparkling, "Don't think about satisfying me, focus on satisfying your own heart."

"..."

The words are nice and sound very pleasant. Combined with Bae Joo-hyun's beautiful face and gentle tone, most people would probably get drunk to death here.

"Okay, then let's put aside our expectations and stop thinking about all that." Chen Chen threw away the strategy he had just written on the table. "Throw away this strategy too. A strategy made without knowing the specific situation will probably not work."

Bae Joo-hyun just smiled.

"It's all up to you."

……

In the next few days, Bae Joo-hyun worked as usual, and Chen Chen stayed at home to take care of his health. He would only speak when there was something specific to ask him occasionally, otherwise he would just eat, drink, play and sleep every day like a baboon in the zoo.

For example, exchanging messages with Tik Tok, or writing a song for Integrate in preparation for their comeback at the end of the year, these are all things to do.

Returning at the end of the year is something that Integrate must do. If you miss this node, many things will become very difficult.

Chen Chen had a general idea for the main song, so he took out "Fiesta", the last part of the Shorty King Selling Flowers trilogy, to wrap it up and fill in the gaps.

Now, the Shorty King of South Korea has been torn to pieces by Chen Chen, and his development trajectory has completely changed. The works he has produced are things that have never been seen before. Chen Chen feels secretly happy and a little melancholy at the same time.

I am happy that I have more songs to use, but sad that one of the songs that I was "originally" familiar with is missing here.

But Chen Chen immediately slapped himself.

It's such a long time and you're still lamenting about this. Is this your first day here? Shame on you!
As for whether using "Fiesta" as the title song can continue Integrate's strong upward momentum, this is indeed something that needs to be considered. Chen Chen is a little unsure. It's not that "Fiesta" is bad, it's that it's not strong enough and can't produce the explosive output of Red Hair's "Psycho".

Uh. The entire South Korean girl group circle can't find a song like "Psycho"
Anyway, Chen Chen had his own concerns and was a little unsure. Chen Chen, who was very capable and decisive when it came to other people's girl groups, became hesitant when it came to the affairs of his own girls.

It is human nature and understandable, but it should not appear in decision makers.

"Hey~ Lao Jin, what are you busy with?"

Chen Chen called Golden Era.

"I just sat down to rest for a while. What's wrong? Is there something?" Jin Shidai didn't be polite to Chen Chen and his attitude was very casual.

"Integrate's return at the end of the year is something we have agreed on a long time ago. I want to ask if you have any requirements for the title song." Chen Chen got straight to the point, "I'm going to get started."

"I don't have any requests. How can I have any say in PD Chen's songwriting?" Jin Shidai said politely, but immediately followed up with a request, "But if I must make a request, I hope you can write a more grand song."

"At the end of the year, it has to be something that will leave a lasting impression on people." Jin Shidai explained, "Let alone all the dazzling performances, the end of the year itself is lively enough. If you release a bland song, it won't fit in with people's hearts at that time."

"I understand. Let me think about it." Chen Chen replied.

"You don't have to write it deliberately." Jin Shidai laughed on the other end of the phone. "With the popularity of Integrate right now, even if you write a seven-second song and put it up, it will probably get first place."

"Of course, we can, but that would consume the enthusiasm of fans and exploit the curiosity of passers-by. We don't want it." Chen Chen ended the topic and jumped to the next one. "Is there anything you need me to know?"

"The rest of the story will be about the starship. Do you want to hear it?" Jin Shidai asked out of politeness.

"I hold more than 40 shares of Starship in my hands. Do you want to hear it or not?" Chen Chen said back, "Hurry up and tell me!"

"Uh, okay," Jin Shidai said, a little embarrassed, his tone lowered a lot, "MONSTA X has used some of C headquarters' overseas resources, and is now active in the United States. The next comeback plans to target the market there. It can be regarded as avoiding the limelight in China, and it can also be regarded as trying to get some new resources."

"Feel free to use them. C Headquarters can't use the boy band's resources right now. It would be a shame to leave them and wait for them to expire." Chen Chen was very generous. "If there are any resources that Cosmic Girls can use, go use them too. Integrate has already had enough."

"Thank you, President Chen!"

Jinshidai's thank you is absolutely sincere.

"You're welcome. I heard that Cosmic Girls are preparing for a comeback. You should have eaten more during this period." Chen Chen sent his heartfelt blessings to his artists. "The title song this time is good. I hope it can achieve good results."

"Haha, that's all thanks to you!" Jin Shidai added some good news to Chen Chen at the end of the call, "Starship's temporarily dismissed trainees have basically been recalled. We should have the opportunity to launch a new boy and girl group as planned."

"Well, I see."

Chen Chen's response to this news was a little cold, mainly because his brain started to work at high speed.

Ive had two people taken away from him. How did he come into being?

When Chen Chen heard about Ive, he thought of aespa from SM Entertainment. What kind of changes will SM Entertainment's new girl group bring? It has already been put on the agenda.

hiss~
Thinking about it, I feel a little excited. The girl group track that Chen Chen is following will be a completely unfamiliar road from now on.
