Chapter 740 It’s Him
"I thought Oppa didn't see it."
Chi Jingyuan's reply seemed to make the message owner a little excited, or surprised. He replied very quickly. Before Chi Jingyuan had time to switch back to listen to the song, a new message had already been sent.
"Now I see it."
Just as he thought, Chi Jingyuan glanced at it and didn't want to say more. He replied casually, with stiff words and a hint of ending the call.
Unexpectedly, Lin Nayeon didn't seem to notice it. A minute later, she continued to send it:
"I really appreciate Oppa's help yesterday. We will have a holiday next week. I want to invite Oppa to dinner to thank him."
Chi Jingyuan looked at the invitation message and frowned slightly as he read it.
He knew that Lin Nayeon hated him very much because of the incident of "Sixteen" last year.
He had spies in Twice, so he knew very well how unscrupulous the little hater Lin Nayeon, who looked cute on the outside, was in private. She was always talking nonsense, and she could say all kinds of bad things. In addition to slandering his reputation in front of some people in Twice, she would occasionally say that she wanted to beat him up...
He even suspected that the few posts he had seen online that were madly hating him were posted by Lin Nayeon...Even if they were not, she must have liked them.
Chi Jingyuan knew that there was a reason for the incident. This little rabbit was just a little hater and did not cause any substantial damage to him, so he did not hate her or anything.
But the impression in his heart was too deep. Chi Jingyuan was really a little uncomfortable with the tone of this hater talking to him now, thanking him and calling him Oppa...Chi Jingyuan could even imagine the way this little rabbit frowned hard and felt uncomfortable when she typed the word "Oppa".
She was uncomfortable calling him, and Chi Jingyuan was actually quite uncomfortable listening to her.
Although he did help her yesterday, it was just a side job... and he didn't believe that a person's attitude would change so much just because he didn't help her in the conversation or communication.
Either he was framed and said so helplessly, or he had other purposes.
How could Heizi have good intentions? ... Doesn't Chi Jingyuan understand?
He read the message twice, curled his lips, and asked very bluntly: "Why do you call me Oppa? Didn't we call you senior before?"
"..."
This question seemed to have asked Lin Nayeon, and she didn't reply as quickly as before. The new message came after a while: "Because Jingyuanxi is a very familiar senior who has written songs for us and worked as a producer. He also helped us out yesterday. Of course, we have to call him Oppa..."
Chi Jingyuan glanced at the long string of words with a smooth tone and pretended to be cute. He snorted and sent the text message that had been input long ago: "Senior? Aren't we the same year?"
Of course he knew that Lin Nayeon was not born in 1994. He just said so deliberately because he couldn't stand the little black guy's cross-dressing and pretending to be friendly.
Tsk, I can't stop you.
…
At this time, Lin Nayeon, who was in a studio in Seocho District and had finished taking photos for today, was sitting on a stool waiting for other members to get off work. Seeing that the invitation text message she had organized for a long time to send out received such a reply, she stared at the simple words on her phone and the question mark that represented the tone of questioning.
The small question mark seemed to contain endless ridicule, which made her heart suddenly ignite a fire of evil. Her eyebrows trembled slightly, her expression was tense, and then she couldn't help it after all. She tilted her head back, rolled her eyes, and looked like her self-esteem was frustrated, making a very vivid weird face.
Then she sat back soon, picked up the phone and thought about what to reply next.
The ghost is the same age as you, I...Forget it, I forgive you for how handsome you were yesterday.
…………
Expecting Lin Nayeon's expression like she had eaten leftovers after reading the text message, Ji Jingyuan suddenly felt in a good mood. He plugged in his headphones and listened to Blackpink's popular new song... At the same time, as he expected, the black fan stopped replying.
However, halfway through the listening, Park Jae-hyun called, and Ji Jingyuan had to pause the music and walk out of the practice room to answer it.
Yesterday, Ji Jingyuan vented his anger and left the rest of the things to Park Jae-hyun. This brother is now reporting to him about the handling of the situation.
Ren Seyong was okay, just a middleman who introduced the relationship. He didn't seem to expect Kim Chang-jung and the other two to be so impatient, and Lin Nayeon also said good things about Twice, so there was no big deal later, and he was directly let go.
However, yesterday's experience should have taught him a lesson. At least he didn't dare to introduce any connections randomly in the short term. ,
As for Jung Joon-young, Chi Jingyuan actually knew him. He had met him many times during TV activities and had talked with him a few times. However, his attention was all on Kim Chang-jung yesterday. He just glanced at Jung Joon-young and didn't pay much attention to him.
At this time, after listening to Park Jae-hyun's words, I realized that this person was really interesting. He was sued for sexual assault by his ex-girlfriend the day before yesterday. I don't know where he got the confidence from. He didn't take it to heart at all. He was still carrying a case on his back, but he followed Kim Chang-jung out to play, and he had a good vision to set his target on Zhou Ziyu.
After giving him a lesson, he simply started with his case, at least making him unable to appear in front of everyone for a while.
As for Jin Changzheng... I guess it will be difficult to see this brother in the future.
After knowing the result, Chi Jingyuan said nothing. He hung up the phone and returned to the practice room. While walking on the road, he found another text message sent by Lin Nalian. However, he did not click on it, but briefly After thinking for a while, he directly wrote a text message, entered a small face pattern showing scissor hands, and sent it to the Twice members who sent him a thank you text message yesterday, indicating that he had seen it.
Except Lin Nalian.
Lin Nalian just reminded him that he was often busy and unavailable, or sometimes too lazy to reply to messages. This was fine for acquaintances like Zhou Ziyu who knew him well, but for other people, they would think that he didn't read. If you arrive, or you deliberately don’t reply when you see someone, it seems a bit difficult to contact.
Even if you are not interested in chatting, it is still good to reply a little out of politeness.
After sending out the group message, Mingjing Nan seemed to be okay at the moment and immediately sent him a message, seemingly wanting to talk about what happened last night.
But before they could even talk, there was a knock on the door of EXO's practice room, and Yoo Jae Suk and his people walked in. When Chi Jingyuan saw this, he quickly said to Ming Jingnan, stood up and joined the other members. Went up to say hello, and soon began the formal work and practice.
"Nayeon...who are you texting with?"
In the studio on the other side, after finishing shooting, Yu Dingyan walked to the side with his mobile phone and a bottle of yogurt. He looked at Lin Nalian, who was grinning and staring at the mobile phone very seriously, and asked casually.
But before the other party could reply, her phone suddenly vibrated. She picked it up and looked at it, and she immediately laughed: "Ah, Oppa Jingyuan replied to me. He saw the message I sent him yesterday."
Lin Nalian, who had lowered her head, changed her expression when she heard this. She craned her neck and poked her head over to take a look at the text message on the screen of Yu Dingyan's phone. Then she looked back at her phone, which had been silent since she sent the message just now, with a look on her face. He remained calm, but the corners of his mouth couldn't help but twitch twice.
After writing a text message in reply, Yu Dingyan looked up and remembered the question again. He asked again with a smile: "Who were you texting with just now? It was someone I met at the last event. It seems that I want to chase you. That male idol?”
When Lin Nalian heard this, she held her mouth and bulged her teeth and moved her cheeks. Then she didn't know what she thought of. Suddenly her teeth were exposed, she laughed, and nodded broadly:
"That's right...that's him."
…………
When news about the Rio Olympics dominated every page, a few days flew by and August 13th soon arrived.
"Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh"
The audio and video section of Myeongdong Gyoba Bookstore is full of people. The shelves filled with records and CDs are not busy, but they are not deserted either. The speakers next to them are playing the new song "WHISTLE" by Blackpink, the hottest new girl group these days. ”, the iconic whistle echoed around, making people seem to walk a little faster.
The first row of shelves in the audio-visual area is usually filled with records from artist groups that have recently returned to the mainstream. In addition, the best-selling albums with the highest sales during this period will also be placed in the most conspicuous position, with a label next to them. Their reply poster, if you want to know the recent situation and trend of the Kpop music industry, you can know it by just standing here and taking a look at it.
At this time, among the scattered customers, two women dressed like college students in their twenties were standing in front of the shelves and looking back and forth. Their eyes swept over the unique album covers and price tags one by one, but they seemed to There was some hesitation and the target was not found.
"There really aren't any singers that stand out recently..."
One of the girls with long hair and a pretty face looked at the shelves for a long time and shook her head in disgust: "XO's second album is still in the most conspicuous position. It has been sold for more than two months, right?"
"I saw it the day before yesterday. The album "EX'ACT" was still ranked in the top ten in weekly sales on the G list. Although the market has improved now, in terms of sales, EXO's current gap is too severe..."
A short-haired girl next to her put back the Gfirend regular album "LOL" that she had been looking at for a while, and replied: "These two days are the Olympics, and most artists have delayed releasing songs...it's not like there are no good ones. , I think Blackpink’s debut song is pretty good, shush~~”
These two girls are both college students who like Kpop. They are very philanthropic in following any group. However, because they don’t have jobs yet and their living expenses are limited, they usually only buy the albums of the most popular group... Some time ago, because of EXO’s second album The editor emptied his wallet. After saving for two months, he had a little more money. This time he thought about buying some more and going back to take them apart.
"Oh, don't mention it. I don't like the style of this new girl group. The song "WHISTLE" is not bad but the people are too ugly... YG's fourth ugly group just disbanded due to a scandal. After several years of hype, a new fourth group has been launched. Ugly, the entire company is full of ugliness, and it really affects the aesthetic culture of today’s young people.”
Hearing this, the long-haired girl waved her hands with great disdain and spoke in a very bitter and sarcastic tone. Apparently she also knew the secret of getting fans to criticize each other.
After saying that, she looked around and said, "Don't talk about girl groups, are there any good male idols who have released songs recently, or are about to make a comeback?"
As she said this, she remembered something and couldn't help complaining: "I don't know if there will be any follow-up reissues of XO's third album this year. It's been two months, and everyone on the fan base and the Internet has been asking. Until now, There is no news at all. SM’s operation is really SHIT. Taking advantage of XO’s high popularity to do this, any other group would have been scolded..."
The companion next to him nodded in agreement, and then said as if he knew it before: "2PM's Jun. K just released his solo album two days ago. All the songs in the entire album were composed by him alone. Didn't you say 2PM before? Not bad?”
"What I like is Nichkhun. In the whole 2PM, there is only one Nichkhun who is handsome enough. The others are all male publicists who only sell their muscles. Jun. K is not even the top one in 2PM."
The long-haired girl looked at her companion strangely, as if she had been misunderstood, and then shook her head: "I listened to Jun. …Who can’t write bad songs? I can do it.”
The companion was obviously used to the aggression of his classmates and did not refute anything. He just thought about it and then shrugged: ""Then the more popular boy band recently is gone... But VIXX has already predicted that it will be released this week. It’s back, the concept photos and promotional videos have been released, I think they’re pretty good, you can take a look…”
"Oh? Then let me see..."
When the girl heard this, she picked up her phone and started searching. Although VIXX was not a trend, it was still considered a popular boy band. She quite liked last year's "Chained Up".
"This promotional photo...is not bad...has the pre-sale started? Otherwise, I will buy VIXX this time..."
Looking at the VIXX return news, as well as the released album covers and concept photos found on her phone, the girl nodded with satisfaction. Just when she was about to confirm it, she suddenly paused and said quickly: "Wait a minute. …”
Her eyes suddenly saw the hot search column on the right side of the search page. At this time, there were several popular and familiar terms occupying several positions in the front.
Click on it and relevant news will appear immediately:
"SM announced that EXO will officially release the regular third reissue album "Blood & Sweat & Tears" on August 18. The album will have five new songs and two title songs. The pre-sale channel will be opened at 8pm today. It has been made public. The first promotional concept photos of the two title songs..."
A series of news headlines are similar, all reporting the same news that has just been announced.
"Concept photo..."
Seeing this news, the girl's eyes lit up. She opened the link below silently, and a photo that appeared immediately made her pupils shrink.
Exquisite oil paintings hang on the walls, gray stone pillars and pure white human sculptures complement each other. The mahogany floor is covered with polished pure wool carpets, and gorgeous chandeliers, one large and five small, hang from the high ceiling. , the light-colored curtains were half-covered, and the moonlight outside filled the third of the room through the gaps. The background of the hall, which was very medieval and magnificent, but also dyed with a mysterious religious atmosphere, came into view.
In this gorgeous, majestic and mysterious background hall, there are three luxurious velvet sofas, one large, two small and three small. Each of the nine members of EXO is wearing a gorgeous and exquisite suit, either upright or diagonally, leaning or standing. The ring is on the sofa.
Among so many members, Chi Jingyuan is in the middle left position of the sofa, dotted with light gray lines, surrounded by silver chain decorations, a suit made of soft suede material, and fine tailoring techniques. His body looks extremely close-fitting, and with the aristocratic knot tied at the collar of his lining shirt, a luxurious, calm, and mysterious style is instantly born.
He was half leaning on the armrest of the sofa next to him, crossing his legs and looking at the camera quietly with a calm expression. The slightly casual movements did not damage the noble temperament in the composition. On the contrary, it gave the whole person a layer of comfort and elegance.
The solemn and elegant background, the gorgeous and elegant clothes, the mysterious and seductive temperament, and an exquisite and exquisite composition appear on the screen, making people seem to be deeply attracted and impacted, like a piece of art. The EXO logo and the song title of "Blood, Sweat and Tears" at the bottom of the picture, as well as the small words of the 8.18 comeback date, are a bit redundant.
"Ahhhh..."
The long-haired girl stared blankly at this newly released promotional photo. She couldn't help but scream in surprise. However, she immediately realized that she was in a public place and quickly covered her mouth, excitedly pulling As the companion next to him kept shaking, he lowered his voice and kept saying excitedly: "This concept photo... is so handsome... this style is really..."
"What?" When the companion next to her saw her appearance, he leaned over and asked strangely.
After a while, a burst of excited discussion came from a small corner of the audio-visual section of the bookstore. Even if it was suppressed, it was difficult to conceal the excitement:
"Dafa! This style is so provocative... Everyone is so handsome, and Yuan's outfit is so sexy... But Baekhyun is okay too."
"I knew that there would be a reprint of SM's Urinary Sex...but this concept photo really shocked me,"
"Double lead? The configuration is very good. Which song is this concept photo for..."Blood, Sweat and Tears"? The name sounds so scary... Let's take a look at the promotional photo of another song."
"The other song is called "LOTTO"? Let me take a look... It feels good, but it's not as shocking as the previous one. Yuan's outfit is too sexy... Ah, I really want to kiss him!"
"Just a kiss? I want to..."
As the happy voices gradually faded away, VIXX, who had just been discussed, was very tacitly discussed. Suddenly, no one talked about it...
…………
On the 13th, SM Company officially announced the news of EXO's return of the re-released album five days in advance and opened the pre-sale channel. After so long, the news that fans have been looking forward to for a long time immediately caused excitement among fans and shock in the music industry.
In particular, the high-quality concept promotional photo of "Blood, Sweat and Tears", one of the two main hits, became the focus of discussion among countless Aili. It was on the hot search in a very short time, and the popularity was amazing.
The styling and concept of idols' return are extremely important. Every time they give fans and audiences a sense of freshness, it can be considered a success. Idols that cannot give people a sense of freshness will only seriously wear out the patience and enthusiasm of the market.
This time, EXO's comeback style has changed from the darkness and intensity of the third album "Monster" to the luxurious and elegant sexy style of "Blood Sweat and Tears". The aristocratic dress and the slightly scary song title have made all fans feel a strong impact as soon as they were released.
In terms of discussion and enthusiasm, this time, Chi Jingyuan and his team changed dozens of clothes and took promotional photos for an entire night, which can be said to be a success.
The result of success is that in addition to Blackpink, EXO has also competed head-on with the Olympics in the past two days.
However, SM only released a piece of news and two concept photos of the title song today, and there were no other materials and supporting promotions. The main song was teased and then ran away, which whetted the appetite of all fans.
Even EXO didn't have anyone to open a live broadcast to show their faces and chat... Because all the members were on the plane and flew to Japan at this time. Before the official return, they also had to participate in the SM Town held in Osaka this time.
