Chapter 723 Overtime
"Is it so serious?"
"You will miss the comeback?"
Hearing this judgment, several members of EXO were a little surprised. Kim Junmyeon couldn't help but frowned and said in surprise.
Looking at Kim Jong-in's appearance today, they knew that he was seriously injured. It was certain that he would not be able to attend the next concert...but they didn't expect that he would not be able to attend the comeback next month after preparing for such a long time.
You should know that a comeback is a very important exposure for any idol, and every comeback song, style, and makeup are a brand new creation for each member. It is very likely that members who did not make any splashes and were not popular before will suddenly attract fans and gain a lot of popularity in this comeback because of their excellent makeup and style. This situation is common in countless idol groups.
As senior Yoona has always said, popularity has seasons, and no one knows who will suddenly rise all of a sudden.
If there is no other way, Kim Jong-in will definitely not want to miss the reprint of the third album...Even if he is in a TOP group like EXO, there is no time to waste for him. The more top-level groups, the more intense the competition for popularity.
"No way, the doctor said so. This time the old injury relapsed more seriously than before. Even if it recovers quickly, it will take at least one and a half months, and it will definitely not be in time for our comeback on the 18th of next month."
Li Chenghuan spread his hands. He also felt that this accident was really untimely. Everything was going smoothly. The concert was successfully held, and then it was a comeback. All the plans were well arranged, but it suddenly happened.
"What about the concert?"
As the captain, Kim Junmyeon continued to ask: "There is no time to rehearse now, and Jongin has a solo stage..."
Kim Jongin's sudden absence has a great impact on the next performance. There is a big difference between the nine-person stage and the eight-person stage in terms of positioning and formation. It takes a certain amount of time to make changes and practice.
When Luhan left in 2014, it happened to be the first tour. He was very considerate and left more than a week for EXO to make changes. Now there is another concert tomorrow, and there is no time to make any changes. Moreover, Kim Jongin is the main dancer in the team. There are many parts in the C position, and it is very troublesome to change.
"The company has discussed it. Due to time constraints, the formation and positioning of the next few concerts will not be changed. Kai's C part, Sehun, Jingyuan, you two will replace him first. As for the other parts, just vacate his position. His solo stage will be cancelled. In the free time, Junmyeon can talk more in the chat session and interact more, so as to make up for the one minute..."
"As for the return of the re-released album..."
At this point, Lee Seung-hwan shook his head: "The company has decided to return from nine to eight. The two title songs do not need to be re-recorded, but KAI's parts will be redistributed. The positioning of the two songs will also be redesigned. The formation will be changed from nine to eight. Jingyuan will still do "Blood Sweat and Tears". ..."
He glanced over and saw Chi Jingyuan nodding slightly, then he nodded as well. He looked around, clapped his hands and began to cheer:
"There will be a performance tomorrow, so everyone should take the time to practice the eight-person stage of all the songs in the concert tonight... After the concert tomorrow, we will start practicing the eight-person version of the comeback theme song again."
"While there is still some time before the comeback, everyone should work hard during this time."
"Got it..."
After a short silence of one second, several people from EXO responded a little dully, and then Li Chenghuan said a few more words, including some explanations to fans about Kim Jong-in's injury during tomorrow's performance, and then everyone left the meeting room and walked towards the practice room, preparing for tonight and the overtime career for a long time to come.
A group of people walked in the corridor, but the atmosphere was not very good.
Kim Jong-in's absence has a lot of impact on the EXO team. The most important thing is that there is suddenly a lot of extra work. Just the choreography of the two main songs of the return has changed from nine to eight, and it takes a lot of time to practice the positioning and formation again. Not to mention the hard work and fatigue of practice, just taking up a lot of time that the members originally planned to use for rest or to run documents is already annoying.
Thinking of the hard overtime and the time that was temporarily occupied, although they know that they can't blame him, some people must be angry.
Chi Jingyuan followed the team and couldn't help sighing when he thought of today's accident.
Although he didn't like working overtime, he didn't blame Kim Jong-in or something... But this kind of thing did have a big impact on him. If it weren't for today's accident, he shouldn't be in a meeting at the company now, but he would have eaten dinner happily and returned to the dormitory, happily showing off his sword skills with the Japanese girl.
Moreover, after the concert tomorrow, there would be a few days of rest. He was planning to take some time to fulfill Zhou Ziyu's previous proposal, and find an opportunity to watch a movie together, or think of a way to capture the girl and break the cold war mood of Pei Zhuxuan... But now he has to practice dancing in the company, and practice the new song that he has danced countless times...
Thinking about this, he couldn't help but complain in his heart. No wonder the other members didn't talk much at the moment...
I can only lament my bad luck.
When he was about to return to the practice room, he suddenly remembered something. Instead of following the others directly in, he took out his mobile phone and stopped at the door. He wrote a text message and sent it to Nai Minami:
"Suddenly, I have to work overtime for something at work. I probably won't be able to play today."
Then, he shook his head, put away his phone and walked into the practice room. The door closed, cutting off the hustle and bustle outside.
…………
At this time, Nai Minami was sitting on her bed, her short hair tied up with a cute pink hair tie, one leg was crossed inside, and the other was hanging outside the bed, with her toes hooked on the edge of her slippers. , seems to be in a good mood.
There wasn't much going on today and everyone got off work early. She used some tricks to get the first place in the bathing order. After hurriedly washing up, she took out her 3DS game console and was ready to wait for Chi Jingyuan. news.
She had played "Monster Hunter" for a while before, but she wasn't so addicted to it. She had actually forgotten how to operate it after not playing it for so long.
She knew that Chi Jingyuan was actually annoyed by players who didn't really like to play, but just joined in the fun... Minatozaki Saka was one of them, and she had already heard it from Chi Jingyuan's tone that time... For this reason She even took time to practice in the past two days.
If other members of Twice, or members of the opposite sex in the company who expressed affection for her but were rejected with a smile, would probably be surprised to see this girl being so interested in a male idol from another company...
However, it should be said that she has regained the feeling she once had and is still having fun. Later, she can do the things she likes with the people she likes again. Just thinking about it makes her happy and looking forward to it.
While he was thinking about it, the cell phone next to him suddenly rang. Mingjing Nan picked it up and saw the message from Chi Jingyuan.
After seeing the words inside, Mingjing Nan was stunned for a moment. The brightness that had filled his body just now suddenly dissipated like water. His little feet hooked in slippers no longer swayed, and his whole person seemed to have suddenly withered a lot.
"It's okay, let's work first and play together next time when we have time."
After she recovered, she picked up the phone, pursed her lips, and started typing.
After thinking about it, she added a (smiley face) at the back and clicked send.
"well……"
Although the text message seemed very optimistic and not disappointing, she still couldn't help but sigh after sending it.
In fact, I am quite disappointed...
"yi~"
At this time, there was sudden movement outside. I don't know when Zhou Ziyu walked to the door of their room.
She was wearing pajamas and was wiping her wet long hair with a towel. There were still water drops on her plain face. It was obvious that she had just finished taking a shower. She was opening a pair of big black eyes. Looking inside curiously.
"Onie, you also bought this game console..."
Originally, she just happened to be passing by and took a look inside, but suddenly she saw something familiar on Ernie's bed.
A game console... a very familiar style and color. She had seen it many times in Chi Jingyuan's. In addition to seeing it in the lounge of the TV station, Chi Jingyuan would bring it with him every time they went out to eat together. In the bag, after a quarrel, when I was too lazy to pay attention to her, I would take it out to play for a while. Although she said she didn't lose, she would still come over and squat down to watch carefully...
Mina and Oni also have it... I haven't seen it before.
Suddenly startled by the sound, Mingjing Nan raised his head and glanced outside the door. He raised his eyebrows when he found that it was Zhou Ziyu, but there was nothing unusual on his face. The disappointment just now disappeared. He pointed at the game console placed next to him, He squinted his eyes and smiled: "As you said, I had it before, but I just never had time to play."
"Ouch."
Zhou Ziyu nodded when he heard this and didn't pay much attention.
She just asked casually and didn't stop after exchanging a few words. She wiped her hair and continued walking forward, preparing to go back to her room.
She had only walked a few steps, but for some reason she suddenly stopped. She also stopped wiping her head with her hands. Then she turned her head, looked at the door she just passed by, and blinked.
