Peninsula Asteroid

"What about you, are you crying?"

Looking at Pei Zhuxuan who was rounded by the hat wrapped around his head, Chi Jingyuan laughed and shrugged his shoulders: "That's not true, although I'm very excited to win the Newcomer Award, I don't feel like crying... also It may be that the other brothers cried too violently, which made me feel a little funny and dispel some emotion."

At the end, he thought for a while and added: "If you want to say that you can't help but cry, the time when EXO debuted and won the first place was the most emotional. The memory of that time is really deep. At that time Backstage, the other members were crying miserably, and I was only a little short at the time..."

The scene where EXO won the first No. 1 song after their debut with "The Wolf and the Beauty" is still a special surprise in Chi Jingyuan's mind. The debut was not smooth, and it took a year and two months to get the first song. The satisfaction, sense of accomplishment, and sourness generated by one's hardships are mixed together, and he can still vividly recall them now in retrospect.

Thinking back now, it’s great to get one within a few days of debut, you can be called a monster rookie, but after going through difficulties, it took a long time to get what you dreamed of by relying on hard work and persistence. This kind of experience is more difficult than the previous one. A little more aftertaste and mellowness.

"The first one..."

Hearing this achievement that seemed to be far away from red velvet, Pei Zhuxuan looked up at the sky with some longing.

Since their debut, they have come back twice. Their best result is that they have entered one alternate once in their debut song. Other aspects are basically a bit horrible.

To be honest, with the current situation of red velvet, several members including Pei Zhuxuan are a bit afraid to expect a trophy.

"The last comeback didn't achieve the expected results, and we haven't been able to receive any schedules since November. Before that, everyone in the group was very disappointed and worried. I'm afraid that the last comeback will be our group's last comeback. "

Pei Zhuxuan recalled the tormented state of mind during that time, the focus in his eyes was a little slack, and he murmured as if confiding: "This year, the company suddenly announced that a new member Yelin was added, and at the same time there was a new comeback plan, and today we got a new member. I don’t know why it went smoothly all of a sudden, and now I’m in a much better mood every day... When I was eating just now after winning, they all felt a little bit emotional, and they all felt hopeful.”

"Joo Hyun xi, won't you be proud of just getting a rookie award, right? In a few days there will be the Seoul Music Awards, and the gold content is also very high. Let's be happy after getting that rookie award."

Chi Jingyuan glanced at her, not only was there no consolation, but he curled his lips and complained. He changed his sitting position, leaned on the back of the chair, and said lazily: "Besides the riverside, didn't I tell you After that, the sunrise can be seen in less than six months from then on, and if the time is converted now, there are only three months left.”

Chi Jingyuan's tone sounded very determined, but Pei Zhuxuan couldn't help but recall the scene of that night and the conversation between the two of them, and then think of "Let It Be Natural" not long after, and think of the shock and excitement of that night. Touched, I just felt that my body became warm all of a sudden, and I smiled happily with a beautiful arc on the corner of my mouth, and looked at him sideways with watery eyes.

Before Chi Jingyuan turned her gaze away, she took the lead to look away again, raised her head and continued to look at the sky, pulled the brim of her hat on both sides slightly, and said in a lively and lively voice: "Seoul Music Awards? I hope... Actually I have always liked watching the night sky. When I was young, I often sat on the swing near my home at night. I especially liked to watch the planets in the sky. The eyes are really beautiful, and it makes people feel very relaxed..."

"..."

Hearing her words, Chi Jingyuan couldn't help but also looked up at the night sky. He couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth just after looking at it for a few seconds. The sky was a bit gray at the moment, not to mention the stars, even the moon looked at it. It was a little unclear that the light was slightly dim, and he didn't realize the feeling of 'really beautiful and relaxing' that Pei Zhuxuan said...

She glanced at her strangely, this sister didn't know how to see the beautiful night sky through the smog, and felt that after she won a newcomer award, she suddenly became a little emotional tonight.

It's just that this kind of sentimentality doesn't go well with the bear's smiling face pattern on her clothes at this time, and her round and cute appearance wearing a sweater hat.

After trying a few times, he still couldn't get into Pei Zhuxuan's state of mind. Chi Jingyuan tilted his head to look at the night sky for a while, and exhaled softly: "Actually, I used to like watching the night sky, but I don't like it tonight."

"Why?" Pei Zhuxuan turned to look at him curiously.

"..." Somewhat disinterestedly, he withdrew his eyes from looking at the night scene, Chi Jingyuan spread his hands at Pei Zhuxuan, and said as a matter of course: "Because there are more favorite things to watch now."

After a moment of stagnation, Pei Zhuxuan felt a warm current rushing into her heart, and opened her mouth slightly as if she wanted to laugh, but she quickly tried to hold it back. She was not shy, she stroked the air bangs that came out from the brim of her hat, looked at Chi Jingyuan with glowing eyes, her feet that were originally on the ground involuntarily lifted up, and stepped on a pair of small cotton slippers She tilted her head happily twice, and her heart was obviously a little excited and emotional.

"Well..." After looking at each other for two seconds, Chi Jingyuan stretched, stood up, and waved to her: "Let's go, it's getting late, don't go back and wait for your manager People may have to check the room."

"..."

The heat and impulsiveness in her heart were interrupted a lot at once. Pei Zhuxuan couldn't help curling her lips and glanced at Chi Jingyuan, and then stood up, with a repressed slight dissatisfaction in her tone: "Win I'll cover for you at the end."

"Do you two live in one room?" Chi Jingyuan led the two back and asked curiously.

"Yeah, she's fine in everything, except that sometimes she gets a little noisy." After trying to regain her composure, Pei Zhuxuan laughed softly as if remembering Sun Shengwan's private appearance.

"Tch, maybe people still think you're boring..." Chi Jingyuan said something fair for his relatives of the same age, but he really likes Sun Shengwan's character.

The two walked back indoors and took the ladder together.

As the elevator door closed, the two people inside seemed a little silent, as if they brought back the tranquility in the park just now.

With a sound of "ding", the elevator door opened again, EXO's living floor arrived, and red velvet's room was still a few floors above.

Pei Zhuxuan pursed her lower lips, and when she was about to say goodbye, Chi Jingyuan had already walked out, stood outside the elevator, nodded to her, and waved goodbye: "Let's go, good night."

"Hmm..." Seeing that the other party was so free and easy and casual, but what he was about to say was blocked back, Pei Zhuxuan also nodded slightly, and looked at the other party's face through the slowly closing staircase door with a smile, until the two sides After the elevator doors came together to isolate the sound, she still maintained the same posture. She didn't wake up until the next time the elevator opened again, and walked down quickly.

…………

In the early morning of the next day, all those who came to participate in the Golden Disc Awards, including other SM artists, all took the flight back to Seoul, only EXO was called up by the manager early in the morning, and sat down after breakfast. Take the bus to the Water Cube.

There will be a Youku-full video night party held there tonight.

2014 was a year of explosion of image and video data. During the year, the Divine Comedy "Little Apple" swept all corners of the mainland, and the popular "Ice Bucket Challenge" provided a powerful sample for public welfare and charity communication, including those on the peninsula. The several Korean dramas continuously delivered have attracted widespread attention, and the soaring hits have been jaw-dropping. Reality shows on TV stations and video sites have also ushered in a golden age.

In order to review last year's videos and related figures, it is the first time in the video industry to conduct a cross-platform full-content inventory. As the largest video website in Xiaguo, youku hosted this evening, and it has been releasing news since November last year. During the voting, publicity was carried out non-stop, and the location was chosen as the Water Cube, and all aspects were done very well.

EXO is considered to be a relatively popular guest performer, and it is still the stage performance time of the three songs. restlessness.

After the event on the 16th, EXO returned to the peninsula overnight, but hadn’t stayed in Seoul for half a day. After the company held a production meeting all morning, half of the members boarded the flight with SM’s filming team. Flew to Europe.

They will officially start filming the teaser video for the title song "call me baby" of their single album "E".

This teaser video is one of the highlights of EXO’s comeback preparations. The nine members will go to nine regions and cities in the world to shoot individual teaser videos, and then the nine will join forces and go to the last region, Yunnan. overall shot.

The ten regions and cities are listed in the following order: Colorado, USA, Arizona, Arizona, London, UK, Lyon, France, Marseille, France, Edinburgh, UK, Edinburgh, Berlin, Germany, and almaty, the largest in Kazakhstan The city of Almaty, Barcelona, ​​Spain, and Yunnan, the country of Yunnan.

Coincidentally, the initials of these ten regions and cities are arranged together, which happens to be the name of the title song "call me baby" of "E".

Moreover, these ten areas are all recorded in history. There have been rumors of residents and tourists witnessing strange space phenomena such as UFOs. This happens to correspond to one of the concepts of the EXO group this time. It will be explained in the trailer that they have Aliens with superpowers, solar eclipse and the inextricable connection between EXO members.

What's even more coincidental is that if these ten places are connected with a line on the world map, it happens to be the official logo of EXO's official second album that has been designed this time.

The connection of all kinds of coincidences can't help but make people think carefully. While shocked in my heart, I can't help feeling the ingenuity of the people who designed this project. They have strung together so many cities that seem to be completely unrelated, and they just correspond to each other. The concept of the theme of EXO's comeback this time is really amazing.

It can be said that this time EXO's comeback trailer, no matter from the planning, to the texture, to the concept, to the force, as well as the plot and metaphors, all people can't help but admire it, and it's a big difference from the ordinary male idol group. other distance.

Even if you are not a fan of EXO, just ordinary passers-by, even black fans can't help being surprised and moved when seeing this teaser video which is very different from other groups, subjectively, they will naturally associate EXO and other boy groups in their hearts. Distinguish an obvious grade out.

At that time, Chi Jingyuan got the information that Li Xiuman gave him. When he saw this project that had not been adopted, he felt that it was really well done. It can be applied to XO's comeback this time.

In order to shoot this teaser video, SM company also invested a lot of resources, because there are too many regions and cities to go to and in several corners of the earth, so the company designed to shoot in batches, this time the first shoot is in Europe. side members.

At the same time, because I will return to Seoul on the 21st to participate in the Seoul Music Awards, the schedule this time is very tight and the schedule is very full. If the progress is not good, it may not be possible to finish filming, and I will continue to fly over to continue filming.

After connecting planes in the middle, he flew for twelve hours and finally arrived in Berlin. When Chi Jingyuan got off the plane, his feet were limp, and he was dizzy and had no strength at all.

This plan is really good, but it took a little longer to shoot the flight. Thinking of flying for so long when he returned in two days, his scalp felt a little numb.

It was early in the morning when they arrived in Berlin, and the teaser video here was the part of Kim Min-seok and it happened to be filmed at night. The group went to the hotel booked by the company staff for a brief refreshment and then started working directly.

Because the length of the trailer is at most a minute or so, and the EXO and SM company LOGO displays in the middle of the next ten seconds are counted. The duration is very short and the shooting is not too difficult, so the progress is quite fast and busy. After filming Kim Min-seok's trailer all night, they went back to rest for a while, and everyone moved directly to the next city.

"Crack." Standing in front of St. Nizier's Church, Chi Jingyuan took a mobile phone and took two selfies at the door of the church with gorgeous reliefs carved behind it. The background of the church, the photo looks very atmospheric.

After flying for so long, it’s hard to come here. I must take some photos as a commemoration.

"Jing Yuan, come here."

The staff was arranging the shooting equipment, and the PD waved and shouted over there.

"Wait a minute and walk up this long staircase slowly. We will shoot around you from behind you, from long-range to close-up. Remember not to look at the camera." PD began to guide him on the process of shooting after a while. In fact, the pool scene before Yuan has already seen the sub-shots in the script, and this time he will emphasize it one last time.

"Understood." Chi Jingyuan gestured to indicate that it was a small case.

This kind of teaser video is really no difficulty for him, a representative of young actors from the Peninsula.

In the planning made by SM this time, there are many concepts of EXO's official second album, but the main concept is to undertake the second mini-album "Addiction".

The general concept of "Addiction" is that the twelve members of EXO lost the superpowers they used to rely on and became ordinary people, locked in a maze with no exit.

And this time in the regular second series "EXO-L", the remaining nine members of EXO escaped from the maze, and gradually recovered their superpowers. At the same time, the superpowers of the three members who left the team were transferred to Other members, and at the same time, they had subtle collisions and connections with UFO aliens, solar eclipses and other strange phenomena.

It sounds mysterious, but this is also one of the core selling points of EXO to attract fans. From the debut song "MAMA" to the present, each album of "wolf", "Roar" and "Addiction" actually tells a concept And the story, and the front and back are coherent and echoed.

SM is also the entertainment company that likes to play this thing the most. Most of their groups will have their own "concept" when they debut and come back.

These things will make many fans have a strong interest in discussion, and to some extent greatly increase the attractiveness, compulsion, and fan stickiness.

The filming went smoothly. After the church was completed, the group quickly transitioned to a nearby alleyway and began to rearrange.

"Jingyuan, is it cold?" Nuna Li Youzhen, the assistant, saw Chi Jingyuan sitting on the folding chair rubbing his hands non-stop, and asked with concern.

"It's so cold, Nuna..." Chi Jingyuan nodded vigorously.

For the purpose of shooting, he was wearing a thin black coat, a crew neck shirt and jeans. Even though he was wrapped in a down jacket, the temperature in the middle of the night was still freezing and he was shivering a little.

Li Youzhen trotted a few steps, brought a hair dryer over, plugged in the wire and stood behind him, and started blowing on Chi Jingyuan's neck, the warm air was blown from above into the seam of his clothes, making him warm all of a sudden Quite a lot, he let out a long and comfortable breath, and a white mist radiated forward from his mouth.

The hair dryer is an artifact for artists to keep warm between shooting in winter. It is really comfortable to be blown by hot wind in the winter when the temperature is extremely low.

While enjoying the service of his assistant Noona, Chi Jingyuan listened to the PD's explanation, and the other party specially amplified his voice in order to cover the sound of the hair dryer.

The plot of Chi Jingyuan's personal trailer is probably that he appeared at the door of the church in Lyon, walked into the church until he reached the nearby alleyway, suddenly the surrounding street lights began to flicker, and then went out continuously, he ran in the alleyway in a panic , All the lights in the past went out one after another, and all the light in the entire city began to disappear, turning into darkness.

The origin of the plot is because Ji Jingyuan was endowed with the superpower 'light' in EXO, he just regained his superpower but for some reason fell into a loss of control.

In the end, Chi Jingyuan broke into a room, and starlight suddenly appeared around the darkness to illuminate the surrounding area, while the tables and chairs in the room in front of him all floated under the production of special effects, Chi Jingyuan quietly Panting lightly in the half-dark room, expressionless.

This is to imply that Luhan, who has already retired from the team, has the super power of "controlling objects with the mind" that Luhan once possessed has been transferred to Chi Jingyuan to some extent, and it can be regarded as continuing the concept and setting of the retired team members. .

Including Tao and Lay who also left, their abilities will also be transferred to other members in the video.

Presumably, when XO fans see these scenes and see the superpowers of those resigned members, they may also be deeply moved, and then they will smile knowingly.
