Chapter 608 You Sing This Sentence

After watching the performances of several songs, Ji Jingyuan felt that among all the members of Twice, only Lim Nayeon and Park Jihyo were relatively stable. They did not make many mistakes during the whole practice, while others had some problems.

It’s not that the others sang badly, but they all had their own problems.

Minato Saki Sana’s voice was a bit sharp, and Yu Jeongyeon’s singing skills actually sounded good, but not as outstanding as Lim Nayeon and Park Jihyo. Mingjing Minami was actually OK, but her voice was a bit small. The pronunciation sounded a bit strange, and her breath was not very stable.

And Zhou Ziyu, although there are still some shortcomings, it can be seen that she has indeed improved a lot compared to when she participated in "Sixteen" last year.

Oh, and there is also Hirai Momo.

Forget it...

In fact, if we change to an ordinary venue and let the professionally trained idols stand there and sing, except for a few people, everyone can sing well. After all, trainees are not in vain. But idols have to go on stage. They can maintain the live level, not go out of tune, and have a steady breath while dancing vigorously on the stage. It is the real manifestation of strength. Even with the help of accompaniment and backing music, there are not many idols who can do such excellent live level.

At present, among the nine members of Twice, Lin Nayeon and Park Jihyo are indeed the best.

When Chi Jingyuan saw Twice's stage in the previous event, he had already seen something or two, but this time there was no backing music, and the feeling was the clearest when the microphone was fully open.

Chi Jingyuan somewhat understood what Park Jinying's words that were a little difficult to say just now meant. No wonder the length of Lin Nayeon and Park Jihyo's part was different from that of others.

Twice, who just debuted, is still a little immature in terms of overall strength.

It is similar to the logic of EXO's previous division of parts. The four main singers with the best live performance have the most parts, and the others can sing one or two sentences each.

Twice is also the same.

Chi Jingyuan is of course very familiar with this model. Looking at the Twice members who have just finished dancing a song and are taking a short break to stand in formation, he knows it clearly.

For a group, whether it is a boy group or a girl group, all aspects of strength, especially the level of live performance, are very important. The life of an idol is the stage. Most of the charm of an idol is shown through the stage. If the live stage effect is very poor, such as often dancing out of sync, singing very badly, etc., it will greatly affect the reputation and development of a group.

It doesn't mean that everyone must sing well, but a group must have at least one or two people who can sing.

Unless you play recordings on all stages without opening the microphone, and the artists go up to lip sync the whole time, but at least for now, no group can be so big, and there are always a few important occasions throughout the year when the microphone is turned on during the performance, and the same is true for some fan meetings and showcases.

But then again, for an idol, strength is important, but not the most important, otherwise people like Wu Se-hun would not be in the circle of popularity in their group.

For idols, attracting fans is the most important thing. This profession is actually to use music and stage as a carrier to show their charm to gain popularity. Good looks and likable personality are all charms, and singing and dancing skills are actually part of their own charm.

So in a song, creating a style that suits the public and stimulating the highlights of the members to attract popularity is the most important thing.

And as a producer, he is here to do this.

At this time, the previous song and the original version of the choreography of "Cheer Up" have been danced. The nine members of Twice stood in a row, panting, gently wiped the sweat on their faces, and looked nervously at Chi Jingyuan who was whispering something with Park Jin-young.

After the dance of this song came out, they have practiced for more than a week. Everyone has almost mastered the movements and formations, but they still look a little unfamiliar in terms of neatness and positioning.

"Very good."

Chi Jingyuan stood up and smiled, clapping his hands gently.

The current choreography looks pretty good, more in line with the theme determined in the previous meeting. The choreography is not difficult, easy to imitate, but looks lively and cute.

"What does this move mean?" He grabbed his hands in front of him and imitated a choreography he had just seen: "Tug of war? Does it mean to pull the boy over?"

The TIWCE members looked at each other, and Yu Jeongyeon stood up and nodded. While explaining, she looked at the dance teacher standing next to her: "Yes, almost. The teacher said that this move has some meaning of shirking responsibility."

"Very unique."

Looking at the JYP dance teachers over there, Chi Jingyuan smiled and greeted them, then waved to the Twice members who were looking at him: "Take a break first."

As he said that, he turned around and looked at Park Jin-young. After seeing this brother nodded slightly, Chi Jingyuan also turned around and looked at the nine Twice members sitting on the floor next to him: "We will talk about the choreography later... There are still some problems with the part distribution of this song. Some people's singing segments are not very suitable. Let's determine everyone's part first."

When he got the assigned music sheet from JYP, he already had some ideas. In the past few days, he also took time to consider the allocation of parts by referring to the information of each member given to him by JYP. He just communicated with Park Jin-young, who said that he could make the full decision, but he still reminded that it would be better not to change Lin Nayeon's main support position.

Ji Jingyuan did not plan to change Lin Nayeon's core position.

It's just that Lin Nayeon and Park Ji-hyo have too many parts, especially Lin Nayeon. All the parts that are suitable for her and not suitable for her are assigned to her, and many singing parts are connected together. Just now, Ji Jingyuan felt that it was all her voice after listening to it once.

Even if she fits the main concept of Twice's transformation this time and is also JYP's main member this time, her voice cannot be all in the title song, which will make the timbre very monotonous and lack of changes, making fans feel bored. While the royal family is against the sky, it also makes it difficult for other members to perform.

At least except for the long chorus, it is better not to have too many singing parts connected together.

Twice formed a circle on the wooden floor, holding their own arias and music.

They had been informed when they were assigned that this was the initial version, and that it would be modified according to the producer's opinions, so everyone was mentally prepared.

No one spoke, and nine pairs of eyes blinked, staring at Chi Jingyuan in front of them.

People who were more familiar with Chi Jingyuan, such as Zhou Ziyu and Ming Jingnan, had some complex feelings in their hearts. Even now, they were not very used to Chi Jingyuan's identity as a producer in front of them, and always had a strange feeling.

Although they had few parts, for various reasons, the two had not taken the initiative to talk to him about this topic before.

Some people were a little nervous at this time. Lin Nayeon crossed her legs in front of her, her body was a little tight, and her hand holding the music score inadvertently used a lot of strength.

The look she gave to Chi Jingyuan was also different from the direct gaze of others. She pretended to look at the music score first, and then secretly raised her eyes to look over, highlighting a guilty and nervous feeling.

Maybe she had said too many bad things behind her back, and she had a bad feeling before, and now this feeling is getting stronger.

"First, this sentence, "Don't worry... I will call you", this sentence does not have any high notes, it is very simple, this sentence was originally sung by Lin Nayeon, now MOMO you sing it."

Chi Jingyuan looked at Hirai Momo first: "You are the dance leader, right?"

"Yes, yes"

Hirai Momo hesitated for a moment, then immediately nodded and responded, and made a mark on the music score with a pen.

"That happens...these two sentences before the chorus are yours, and your part before that is sung by Ding Yan. "Chi Jingyuan made a decision immediately and found the two most easy lines in the whole song and gave them to her.

The voice of the whole Twice that left the deepest impression on Chi Jingyuan was Momo Hirai, especially her voice when singing and dancing, which sounded like her own electronic music, very unique.

I originally thought that it would be a bit too little to have only two lines, but it didn't matter for the dance leader. Since the dance had to lead the dance, there were many C-position shots, so it was normal to have fewer parts.

The dance leader should just dance honestly.

"Okay." Yu Jeongyeon also responded after hearing it and recorded it on the music score.

Before Yu Jeongyeon finished speaking, Chi Jingyuan added another sentence. "Also, "It's too early to show my feelings now..." You should also sing this sentence before the first chorus."

In between the two sentences, Yu Jeongyeon's part almost doubled.

She glanced at Lin Nayeon who obviously pursed her lips, and then nodded and responded gently: "Okay. ”

This sentence just now was divided from her, the eldest sister.

"Da Hyun and Chaeyoung are both unchanged, and the raps of the two of you should still be divided according to the previous division."

"Yes." "Got it."

"Next, Tzuyu..."

Chi Jingyuan looked at Zhou Tzuyu, the girl was wearing jeans, her two round thighs were folded together, and she was looking at him with bright eyes.

Why are you opening your eyes so wide? Do you think I'm going to open a back door for you?

"You don't change first. "Chi Jingyuan looked at her and exchanged glances briefly.

This girl was wearing that fat cap, but the brim was not on and tilted to the left about 30 degrees in a playful way. The shadow covered her face but could not hide the reflection in her eyes. The long hair on the left side was tucked behind her ear, revealing a small fat ear that was a bit blessed.

Chi Jingyuan originally planned to give Zhou Ziyu more parts, but after thinking about it, he gave up.

These things that she is not good at, it is actually meaningless for Zhou Ziyu to get more parts. Based on Chi Jingyuan's understanding of her, this girl's strengths are not in these. The most important thing is to let Cody give her a good makeup.

"Oh." Zhou Ziyu looked at him with big eyes and responded obediently.

"Sana... Don't change it for now." Turning his eyes to Sana Minatozaki next to him, Chi Jingyuan looked up and down at the music score, hesitated for a while, and still looked at her and said.

He felt that Sana Minatozaki's lyrics were a bit too few, just the opening two sentences...

"Okay. "

When Minatozaki Sana heard her name, she looked over. Her mouth was slightly open, her eyes were round, and she looked like a squirrel.

After hearing 'unchanged', her expression did not change, and she nodded vigorously twice.

"Then it's Jihyo..."

The names of the nine members were called in turn. Some people's arias remained unchanged, while others had undergone major changes.

Although some parts will be obtained from other places after being separated, under the replacement of Ji Jingyuan, the weight of Lin Nayeon and Park Jihyo's singing parts has been significantly reduced. Park Jihyo is mainly responsible for the treble part of the chorus. Well, Lin Nalian is more obvious. The part that was originally close to one minute has been cut to more than 40 seconds.

In the past, many of her continuous lyrics were cut into pieces by Chi Jingyuan, but if you look closely, you will find that her voice still runs through it from the beginning.

At the same time, although it is less than before, it is still far ahead among all members.

Park Zhenying did not express any opinions. While listening, he took the music score and made his own notes based on what Chi Jingyuan said, and nodded in affirmation from time to time.

Because we knew that Chi Kyung-won would be re-divided in the future, and we had previously agreed to let him take full responsibility, JYP initially divided them roughly in order to highlight a few supporting members, and did not focus on the sound quality. There are problems in terms of strength and singing effect, but now from Park Jinying's point of view, he also feels that Chi Jingyuan is much better after the change than before.

But Lin Nalian, one of the parties involved, didn't think so. From the beginning, she was the one who changed the most.

From her perspective, she couldn't see so much, but she could intuitively see the decrease in her singing.

Seeing that she had made notes with a pen and the score had been cut a lot, Lin Nalian only felt depressed and angry, as well as an uncontrollable sense of grievance.

It’s exactly what I thought!

He was targeting me! I had expected it!

Lin Nalian's heart was filled with congestion, but she didn't dare to say anything against it. She was getting more and more uncomfortable holding it in. Listening to Chi Jingyuan's calm voice, her eyelashes even trembled slightly, and she felt like crying.

Diguang is bullying people like this, PDnim, please say something!

It's a pity that Park Jin Young looks very satisfied at this time.

At this time, she suddenly heard her name.

"The introduction at the beginning is still Lin Nalian..." He looked up at himself, a black fan of Tuya, and saw that she didn't seem to have any reaction. She just nodded lightly, and Chi Jingyuan didn't say much, and then looked not far away. On Ming Jingnan: "Mina, you will sing the part after the opening of Lin Nalian. In addition, you and Lin Nalian will sing the Bridge after the second chorus, and then add your original part unchanged..." …”

From Chi Jingyuan's point of view, the song "Cheer Up" is currently the most promising to become the killing part. The two most eye-catching parts are the introduction at the beginning and the brigde part in the second half.

Things like part are really expensive but not expensive. Sometimes the lead singer howls for a long time, which is not as good as other people showing their faces casually.

Lin Nalian participated in both of these two killing parts. Her arias can be said to be more refined and refined, and she lived up to her position as a featured member.

But he felt that Lin Nalian didn't think so. Chi Jingyuan looked at her with her head lowered and silent, her legs crossed and her feet straightened. He guessed something in his mind, but didn't say much.

Ming Minami's words are somewhat subjective. He feels that Ming Minami's voice is very suitable for singing this kind of bridge part. In Twice's debut song "Like OOH-AHH", one of the passages that impressed him the most is Ming Minami's voice. The section of Bridge in Jingnan.

"OK, all right."

Mingnan quickly browsed the lyrics of these two paragraphs, took a pen to make a mark, then looked up, and after a slight pause,

She originally only had a solo verse of about five seconds, but now after the change, she has a lot more parts, and she almost rushed to the third place in no time.

In the past, she was a little distressed because she rarely had parts, and she also thought about whether Chi Jingyuan, as a producer, would take care of herself.

I didn't want to tell him, but I had expectations in my heart.

Now some of the expectations I had always had have come true, but the joy I expected was not too much.

Instead, there was another strange feeling, an itching spread in my heart, making my chest feel a little hot.

She re-read the aria she had been assigned, and couldn't help but look up again.

The black suit he was wearing looked exactly like the Park Hae Young he saw on TV yesterday. It could be seen that he had just come over from the crew and didn't even have time to change his clothes.

But, he's really handsome...

Mingjing Nan lowered his head and gave a very light smile.

She has some facial control.

The last person's part was also divided. Chi Jingyuan looked at the people in Twice. Except for Lin Nalian who looked a little strange, the others had different expressions but their expressions were natural.

Although he guessed that some of them might not be very happy, Chi Jingyuan, who was working seriously at this time, was too lazy to guess what these little girls were thinking. He clapped his hands and said, "Then the part is so determined. From now on, we will follow this Come practice.”

"Inside!"

At this time, Park Zhenying stood up after seeing the satisfactory end of this more concerned link, nodded and encouraged several girls, and then left first.

It was already late at this time. As the president, he didn't need to work overtime so much. Besides, Chi Jingyuan was directing here, and he was watching from the side, which was not very good.

"Brother, how do you think the division is?" Chi Jingyuan followed him out and asked with a smile when he reached the stairs. "It's pretty good. The company didn't consider too much when dividing before. Some members are indeed too few... Now that you have divided it, it is much more reasonable."

Park Jinying squinted and smiled: "Just follow your ideas. I said before that this song will be handed over to you. We all have confidence in your ability."

"Hehe..." Hearing this, Chi Jingyuan shook his head helplessly: "I don't have much confidence myself."

"Haha, too modest." Park Jinying laughed out loud: "If I can get the same results as "Boy with Luv" by then, I will be very satisfied."

You really dare to think.

Chi Jingyuan smiled beautifully, but he was secretly complaining in his heart.

"By the way..." When he walked into the elevator and was about to leave, Park Jinying remembered the abnormality of Lin Nayeon that he had noticed just now, and wanted to say something.

But after a brief consideration, he interrupted himself, waved his hand and said goodbye directly: "... Forget it, I'm leaving first."

Originally, he wanted to play the good cop and let Chi Jingyuan treat Lim Nayeon and other Twice members a little more lenient.

But after thinking about it, Park Jinying decided not to intervene. If he was dissatisfied and wronged, he would just bear it. No matter how optimistic and promoted it, the company's decisions in these aspects could not be stopped by the idol.

And it's actually good to be strict. Chi Jingyuan is an eye-catching guy. If he is more serious, it would be better if Lim Nayeon and other members hate him. If there is no personal relationship, it would be better.

Chi Jingyuan didn't understand Park Jinying's mental state at all. He didn't delve into the other party's words halfway through. After saying goodbye, he returned to the practice room.

After returning, several members of Twice lowered their heads to look at the music score. Some were familiar with the singing section they had just been assigned, and some might have too few parts, so they recited all the lyrics from the beginning.

Anyway, I just wanted to show my serious attitude in front of the producer and the agent.

After Chi Jingyuan came back, he waved to several dance teachers and was about to talk to them about choreography. Suddenly, a strange voice came to his ears.

"My dear...shyshyshy~"

Chi Jingyuan looked directly at the source of the voice, that is, Minatozaki Sana, who was sitting closest to him.
