Peninsula Asteroid

Chapter 494: Goal Achieved

The two songs in "O", "love me right" and "Orientation Sniper" are mainly edited with some MV shooting and behind-the-scenes shots in the recording studio.

In the first few single albums, basically all the clips are about the title song, and the content of the included songs is very small, but "O" is a bit unexpected. In terms of influence among young people, it still surpasses the title song by a lot. The SM staff who are in charge of making sideshows also know it well, and specially edited a lot of clips from "Orientation Snipe" in this P.

However, because this song did not shoot an MV, it is mainly some behind-the-scenes shots during practice.

After the "O" album, which is relatively less important, came to the one that many people are most interested in. EXO's second official album has one of the best results, and it is also the "L" album that is still popular nowadays. The title song, "boy with luv" making highlights.

"The girl feat for the chorus part of "boy with luv" has already decided to choose a singer within the company. What suggestions do you have...Jing Yuan, who do you think is more suitable?"

The opening of this P is somewhat similar to the tidbits of "E". When you enter, you choose to have a meeting inside the company. It is also the same with various blurs and mosaics. Only Chi Jingyuan and Li Xiuman can be seen clearly in the entire conference room. Personal faces, as well as many words and suggestions in the middle, have been silenced.

The names of several female artists mentioned at the meeting, such as Taeyeon, BOA and other post-production staff were all eliminated, fearing that it would cause controversy.

"Hmm..." Chi Jingyuan in the camera hesitated for a moment, and after weighing things up, he tried to make a suggestion: "Wendy..."

It turns out that Chi Jingyuan suggested that Sun Shengwan came to sing the song "BWL" feat?

After seeing this surprising inside story, before he had time to think too much, the screen immediately went dark and entered the next screen.

"yeah you makin me a boy with luv..."

After entering this P, the accompaniment of "boy with luv" and the sound of shoe soles rubbing against the wooden floor sounded before the screen was turned on. Immediately after the screen was turned on, the picture of the practice room appeared.

I thought it was a member of XO who was practicing dance, but the audience took a closer look and found that it was not EXO's practice room, and none of the group of people they saw knew each other. Judging by their clothes and movements, they looked like SM's dance instructor.

"Pause."

At this moment, a familiar voice came, and the camera turned to Chi Jingyuan standing in the middle of the room. He stopped the music, frowned and thought for a while, then looked around and watched his dance The teachers said: "Here, our previous choreography, this turning around on the spot seems a bit too simple."

"The tone of this song will be more lively, and the overall choreography style should also rely on this aspect. I think these relatively regular movements can be slightly changed, for example..."

As he said that, he did the choreography just now twice, turned twice on the spot, raised his right leg high during the third turn, and blinked with some satisfaction after standing still: "I feel like adding a Raise your legs high, the effect will be better... Brother, what do you think?"

Although Chi Jingyuan was the main choreographer for this song, and he led a group of dance teachers from the company to do it, but when it comes to dance level and choreography experience, he is actually much worse than the dance teacher in front of him. So many times when problems arise, they will be consulted for their opinions.

However, if there is a disagreement, Chi Jingyuan's opinion will prevail.

"It's really... pretty good."

The dance teachers in front of him tried to learn it, and nodded in agreement with him.

"And here..."

With that said, Chi Jingyuan went to the side to adjust the progress of the song, and cut directly to the second half:

"Use the pair of wings you gave me back then..."

"here."

It cut directly to this part. After hearing it, several people danced the original choreography together, and then stopped to feel it.

Chi Jingyuan thought about it for a while, and said with the same feeling as before: "Same as before, the movement of waving hands left and right is a bit monotonous, and it lacks some flexibility and freshness. I think it needs to be changed..."

"Add a high leg?"

"Why don't you add a few more moves when the rhythm is switched?" Several dance teachers gave their own opinions after thinking about it.

After trying the ideas proposed by several people and trying them out, I still feel a little tasteless.

Chi Jingyuan leaned against the wall with his arms crossed, tilted his head and thought for a long time, as if he had thought of something, his eyes lit up: "Why don't we just stop choreographing this part, since we want to be lively and playful, let's just add a similar dance How about the little game..."

"Uh..." He felt that his proposal was good, and the more he said it, the more he felt: "Just line up all the members, and then the person at the front will come out and count the heads, just like elementary school students..."

Looking at Chi Jingyuan on the screen, the more he talked, the happier he was. He didn't even ask for opinions, so he took the choreographer and started to make it. He built a frame from the very beginning, and then corrected it bit by bit to the final "boy wiht luv" In the song, many people find it very interesting and classic. The choreography of several captains is very classic. Thinking of this song that is sweeping the charts today, even after a month, it is still popular. Countless audiences can't help but have a strong feeling Participation.

After the tidbits of the choreography, there are some shots of learning to dance, but there is no opportunity for Chi Jingyuan to show his face in this episode. Although he led the choreography this time, his level is honestly the same, and his problem all the time is He often dances and suddenly loses his head and forgets the movements, so he does not participate in teaching members to learn dance, and even has to learn it all over again.

Kim Jong-in is the fastest of all the members in middle school. After watching it twice, he almost understands half of it. In the tidbits, when many other members are still memorizing the moves, he can almost teach others how to dance. He really lives up to the name of the dance machine.

The next step is to shoot pictorials and MV clips.

Originally, the staff wanted to cut some footage from the recording and add it to the collection, but after studying the filming, they found that among the clips that can be made public, Chi Jingyuan, as the producer, among the brothers of the members, and the grandson who came to do the feat In front of Seung Wan, he acted a little bit harshly, and he was very serious in his work. Although he didn’t know how to curse, sometimes the sarcastic words he said were too direct. If it was made public, it would not be very appropriate, and it would easily arouse the dissatisfaction of other members’ fans.

After searching for a long time, I couldn't find a suitable clip, so I simply cut a few images into it, and then skipped it directly.

"Haneyhasay, this is suho."

As soon as the screen turned, Jin Junmian's big face appeared in the camera, and he took the small camera and began to take the initiative to shoot the extras.

In addition to the behind-the-scenes VJ silently following the filming, many of the behind-the-scenes collections were filmed by the members themselves on the set.

"We are filming the MV for the title song "boy with luv" of the "L" album. This is where the filming took place. The venue has already been set up. I will show you all."

"...It is a background venue similar to a movie theater, and there are many movable walls inside. The staff are really attentive..."

"The lyrics of the title song "boy with luv" this time tell about saying something to the beloved and important people. It is a very lively, playful and gentle song. I especially like this song, regardless of the choreography or the melody. They are all great... By the way, let me tell you quietly, this song is still Jing Yuan's work..."

"Yuan xi!" Jin Junmian wandered around with the camera, and walked to the side of Chi Jingyuan, who was sitting on a stool at the edge of the venue and played with his mobile phone with his head down: "Come and say hello to everyone. "

Chi Jingyuan, who was caught, looked at the camera and blinked, put down the phone behind the camera, then smiled and waved: "Aniha Sai, I am Yuan from XO."

"It's so formal... Hey, I found out that Yuan Xi has already finished her styling. It's a brand new sapphire blue hair color. Can this be made public?" Jin Junmian pointed with an exaggerated and surprised look. Looking at Chi Jingyuan's recently dyed hair, he made a frightened expression, as if he had done something wrong.

Sighing helplessly, Chi Jingyuan looked at the captain of the treasure trove with inexplicable eyes: "Brother, when the things you filmed are released to the public, our song has already been released."

"Ahaha, is that so?" Jin Junmian laughed, then focused on Chi Jingyuan's hair color, and moved the camera a little closer: "Yuan xi's soot in "CMB" The hair color has been widely praised by the public, so how do you feel about this blue hair style in "BWL" this time?"

"Hmm...it feels quite ordinary."

Speaking of this, Chi Jingyuan's expression was a little uncomfortable, stained with a layer of bitterness, and gently tugged the bangs on his forehead twice: "I don't particularly have this hair color, and it's too troublesome to dye it, although Cody worked hard That's fine...but I think the overall effect is a little average."

"Normal? Is there something wrong with Yuan's aesthetics? I think his blue-haired look is so handsome!"

Seeing this paragraph, many viewers and even fans couldn't help it:

"Yeah, especially the look back at the beginning of the MV, it can be selected as one of the most classic and handsome MV shots in the history of boy groups."

"Ahhh, is he pretending to be handsome? Is he pretending to be handsome? If his appearance is ordinary, what are other male idols?"

"My previous dream was to live with Chi Jingyuan's face and figure for a day...but now I start to hate him!"

Naturally, Chi Jingyuan couldn't have imagined that he had finally said a very honest truth in front of the camera, but the reaction of the audience was so strong.

Although he was scolded for saying it, he really really thought so.

The MV shooting process of "boy with luv" is very detailed, showing many behind-the-scenes stories in front of all audiences.

"...Brother, this 'love' signboard..." In the screen, Chi Jingyuan pointed to the top signboard of the movie theater that was set up: "Can you make the four fonts of 'LOVE' abstract?" Or be more artistic, for example, the three horizontal lines of 'E' are longer and pass through the vertical line, so that the four letters can become 'EXOL' when viewed in reverse, I tried to imagine it just now, and I think it should be possible."

"...Jingyuan, stop playing games, come here quickly, get ready to start!" Park Chanyeol yelled loudly, making Chi Jingyuan, who was playing the game console with his legs crossed, shiver.

"...Yixi..." In the camera, Wu Shixun looked at Chi Jingyuan angrily, and he was held back halfway through what he said in reflex, and then he looked at him fiercely: "You have stepped on my shoes several times Is it? You probably didn't do it on purpose..."

"Suho!"

The MV director shouted vigorously through the loudspeaker: "When you come out to count people in this section, stand on tiptoe... Others remember to bend a little deeper at this time, especially Chanyeol, Kyungwon, Sehun, you guys. How many... Do you remember? Stop laughing!"

"Ha ha ha ha……"

"... If Seung Wan appears too much in the MV, there may be some controversy, but feat sings so well, it's not good to not show up at all." A group of people gathered around the PD to discuss the design of Son Seung Wan's appearance in the MV. After thinking about it, Chi Jingyuan glanced at Sun Shengwan who was obediently standing beside him and blinked, and suggested: "The MV ends with the classic shot of "Singin' in the Rain", so we might as well design a small plot... "

Scenes of small stories and production episodes are constantly appearing in front of all audiences, making them dizzying and extremely enjoyable to watch. A strong sense of comfort fills the whole body, and it seems that I am not looking at a man. It's like watching a TV series, or a well-produced variety show.

At this point, the amazing but not superfluous collection of EXO's official second album behind the scenes has almost come to an end.

In comparison, the two new songs "if you" and "exodus" added at the end of the regular second album have a lot less behind-the-scenes clips, probably because the weight of these two songs is not as large as the previous hit title songs The fire is also because there are less interesting materials, or they have not been reduced yet.

"We are one! Aniha Sai, we are EXO!"

The whole tidbits collection came to an end when the nine members of EXO embraced each other and stood in a row, pointing their thumbs at the camera, and uttering classic introductory words.

Until the logos of EXO and SM appeared in the end, many people still reluctantly recall some of the clips they saw earlier.

And the click-through rate of the video is also increasing, and the various comments below are constantly increasing as if swiping the screen. It seems that it is much more lively than when EXO released the MV of the title song.

"Wow, I realized just how much Chi Jingyuan played in this album after watching this tidbit. I have always thought that the choreography of "BWL" is handsome and interesting, especially the part with several captains is too impressive. It's deep, and it took him and the dance teacher to figure it out after a long time?"

"Yuan's dance level is actually not very good, even if he is not the best in the team, but he just has a lot of ideas, and many movements that come up with a flash of inspiration are so effective. The previous "Roar" is also the same, you really If you don't accept it, you can't."

"I watched the MV of "boy with luv", and every time I saw the 'love' sign, I felt weird... so it turned out to be EXOL? Oh my god, this little surprise is too exciting, isn't it?" ? When I saw that part just now, I had goosebumps all over my body."

"Upstairs, in fact, this little easter egg was discovered by fans a long time ago and made a video and uploaded, and there are many similar little easter eggs. This time, EXO's official second is not only good in music quality, but also very careful in various places. , I recommend you to take a look."

"EXO's oppas are so fun when they work, everyone is hardworking and serious when they need to be serious, and they can take jokes when they get along with each other in normal times. The team spirit is really amazing!"

"As a fan of red velvet, especially a fan of Wendy, I am really grateful to Yuan for proposing Wendy, and SM finally gave this chance to "BWL" feat to Wendy. Wen's popularity has improved significantly, both in terms of popularity and search volume are much higher than before, Kang Sang Mita... Even so, can Yinyin CP get off the car earlier? I am now connected to "Music Bank "I dare not read it."

In the past, when a management company released their idol groups' album preparations, they mostly edited some recordings, shot clips from pictorials or MVs, and added some special interviews.

Basically, everyone in the circle does this, and it can be said that it is similar with minor differences.

The production of this kind of sideshow is very simple, that is, it is OK to edit the scenes taken when preparing the album, and it is more for giving back to fans, ordinary passers-by are not very interested.

However, SM’s production of EXO’s behind-the-scenes this time is not as simple as others. It has risen to the height of planning and production. Every time we have a meeting, record a song or practice, there is always a VJ who is like a ghost and records everything.

The video uploaded this time is not so much a behind-the-scenes of the production of an album. In fact, it is no problem to watch it as a documentary, especially in relation to the popularity of EXO in reality at this time. Looking back at this video collection, it looks a bit like XO A romantic documentary about rising from the ashes.

Such careful production has also achieved very good results.

It’s just a behind-the-scenes video, and the number of hits in just a few hours has completely surpassed that of some second- and third-tier groups, and even the MV views of the title song when the first-tier groups officially come back, and the popularity instantly overwhelmed several girl groups that just returned , climbed to the top of the hot search in the entertainment section, and became a hot topic for many people.

And not only fans outside the circle and passers-by viewers like to watch it, many practitioners in the circle actually watch this collection of tidbits very seriously, because EXO's explosion this time, many people are thinking about whether they can learn from it. experience, thinking about learning something from it.

It's a pity that some of the most important things, such as the key speeches on planning during the meeting, as well as recording and song production, were all specially cut out by SM. These people can only see the album of EXO's comeback after watching it for a long time The general process and process of the preparation, as well as the nine members headed by Chi Jingyuan, seem to be the highlights of the album, but in fact they are all kinds of shots to show off the side.

After watching it for a long time, I didn't gain anything, and in the end, I can only put the credit on the fact that EXO is too popular.

It's really hot.

SM chose this time, which is ten days after the release of the official second album, to release this elaborate tidbit. The primary purpose is also to promote the sales that have stagnated.

From the opening position on the 1st to the 10th, the sales volume of "EXO-L" has reached 980,000 copies. Since its release, the Korean and Chinese versions of this album have firmly occupied the top positions in the G and H charts. The top two never came down.

But it is probably because the previous singles were a bit ruthless and emptied the wallets of fans, or it may be because the entire peninsula idol group has so many single album sales in the market. It's hard to go any higher.

And the golden period for every group to come back and sell albums is the first week, or even only the first two days, even EXO is no exception. So from a few days ago, the sales volume of the second series began to plummet rapidly. Although compared to other groups, the number of copies sold per day is still high, but for EXO who wants to hit 1 million, the increase is indeed true. A little slow.

So SM jumped out and made such a move

However, the company's goal this time has been achieved. The tidbits made public this time allowed Chi Jingyuan and his group to enter the field of vision of many people again through another way. Easy-going, hardworking, and humorous charms have attracted a large number of new fans.

Under the blessing of a lot of discussions and clicks to watch. It also played a very good role in promoting the sales of the second album. On the same day, the real-time display of daily sales data on the Internet showed a significant increase, not even losing to the two days before the album went on sale.

Until 9:00 pm on the 11th, a milestone news finally came out.

EXO's official second album "EXO-L", 11 days after its release, the sales of the single album officially reached 1 million.

There will be an update later today
