Peninsula Asteroid

Tzuyu?

Hearing this name, I don't know why Bae Zhuhyun, who had already prepared half of the gift, suddenly didn't want to take it out.

Or maybe I don’t want to send it out at the same time as her...

"Tzuyu xi, did you guys meet during the pre-recording just now?"

She saw that Chi Jingyuan had turned around and walked over to the sofa. She took out her hand from the bag, and naturally pretended to tidy it up. After a few fiddles, she zipped it up and put it away as if nothing had happened. On one side, he smoothed his hair on his forehead, his eyes sparkling, he raised his head and looked over curiously: "What did you give me?"

Although she felt a little uncomfortable, the young lady would not show such a thing in front of Chi Jingyuan.

"When I came back, I happened to bump into..."

It didn't mean that Zhou Ziyu was specifically looking for him. Chi Jingyuan sat next to Pei Zhuxuan, picked up the script on the table and flipped through it a few times: "I didn't read it, it's some small gift or something."

"We met here before..." Pei Zhuxuan came over and pointed to the marked position in the script, and asked curiously: "Didn't you tell her that you have been very busy recently?"

"Said..." Chi Jingyuan followed the green-white fingers and looked over, shrugging at the same time.

really.

Pei Zhuxuan secretly thought that when she first saw Zhou Ziyu at a showcase, she felt that this girl was not simple.

Tsk, tsk, only sixteen or seventeen years old is already a big deal.

She and Chi Jingyuan view Zhou Ziyu from completely different perspectives. To Chi Jingyuan, Zhou Ziyu may be a little sister whom she has known for many years because of fate, which is a special position compared to friends.

But for Pei Zhuxuan, she met Zhou Ziyu entirely because of Chi Jingyuan. In her opinion, this little girl played a role as an opponent that should not be underestimated.

"Oh, you just mentioned grace..."

Chi Jingyuan, who glanced at the script, suddenly remembered something, exhaled and leaned back on the sofa: "She has been really unlucky recently."

Since Jung Eun-ji turned into an actor in "Reply", her career development has been relatively average. The ratings and reviews of the dramas she filmed have been mediocre. In private, she was nicknamed "Rating Poison No. 2" by Ji Kyung-won. Don't start scolding Chi Jingyuan because of this.

But before, she could barely hold on, but the TV series "Unreasonable Advance" she just starred in last month failed miserably, with only 2% to 3% of the ratings throughout the show. In the end, it became the most popular drama of the same period. The broadcast ended with the lowest ratings.

Although the ratings of this drama are relatively good compared to the ratings, such huge data has also dealt a serious blow to her career as an actress. If the agency's resources cannot be supplied, it is estimated that she will be in trouble in the last one or two years. It has been difficult to receive starring scripts with good casts in recent years.

Although he often made fun of Zheng Eunji's "ratings poison" attribute, it was just a joke among friends. Now that he saw that this sister was really frustrated, Chi Jingyuan was still quite embarrassed, and even thought about it. Don't give her any advice.

Hearing Chi Jingyuan's simple story, Pei Zhuxuan seemed to have put away some of the strange emotions just now. After thinking about the scene he encountered in the morning, he asked strangely: "But when I saw Eun Ji Xi in the morning, I felt that she was in a good mood. of."

She remembered how Zheng Endi and Chi Jingyuan smiled happily when they met each other in the morning. Their eyes were narrowed and their mouths were wide open as they smiled heartily. It was impossible to tell that they had just suffered such a big defeat recently.

"I'm a country person from Busan. I don't have much experience and don't have many worries. I just highlight my optimism."

Chi Jingyuan couldn't help but complain again, with a complaining and intimate tone, shook his head and couldn't help laughing: "This is one of her few advantages."

"Haha..." Pei Zhuhyun also laughed.

She rarely saw Chi Jingyuan talk about friends with this attitude and tone, and it was obvious that the relationship between the two was indeed very good.

"If you're not a local in Seoul, do you mean you're from the countryside?" However, she was still a little bit upset when she heard the word "countryside" one after another. She rolled her eyes at Chi Jingyuan and said, "I'm from Daegu." Woolen cloth……"

"Don't worry, I don't dislike you." Chi Jingyuan looked at the script without raising his head, and he didn't sound sincere.

"Tch!" Pei Zhuxuan frowned and patted him gently, a little dissatisfied.

While joking, the two opened the script and then started to read the contents of the morning.

Put aside other emotions and quickly get into work mode. There is still a lot of work to do today.

…………

After lunch, I was busy for a while. I first went to rehearse the special stage of the two MCs today, and then went to the waiting rooms of several artists to communicate about the interviews. The MC's work was mostly completed. Chi Jingyuan and Bae Zhuhyun returned to their respective groups.

"Oh, I'm finally back."

"You won't see anyone after the pre-recording. Baekhyun and the others weren't so busy when they were MCs before, right?"

"Brother Baekhyun was partnering with hyung Junmyeon at that time, so of course he couldn't be busy..."

After Chi Jingyuan returned, he received suggestive teasing from several members. He was too lazy to pay attention to these members who were smiling so meanly that their backs ached when they stood talking. He sat down and took a sip of water to take a breath.

But just a few minutes after sitting down in XO's lounge, and before even saying a few words, the venue manager informed EXO to go to the front studio to rehearse again.

As the biggest guest today, EXO has a total of two stages today. "Boy with Luv" has been pre-recorded in the morning, and now they are rehearsing another song "Eccentricity".

"gone……"

Captain Jin Junmian greeted, and a group of people stood up and walked sparsely towards the front desk.

While chatting and walking, I met many idols and artists from other groups along the way, and they all saluted and said hello to each other.

"Shh..."

As he was about to arrive at the studio, Kim Jongdae, who was walking in front, suddenly turned around and signaled the members to be silent. At the same time, a burst of angry roars and scoldings were faintly heard from the front, which became clearer as the distance got closer. stand up.

"Axi*%￥, is this the attitude of newcomers during rehearsals?"

"Look what it's like, I..."

"Qiaosong Hamida, I'm really sorry..."

EXO slowed down a little, and several members looked at each other.

Upon hearing this voice and tone, it was probably the PD of the program team who was cursing people.

The PD of the TV station is in a very strong position for ordinary artists. It is normal to get angry and scold them when something goes wrong. Today, "Music Bank" was particularly nervous because of the special live broadcast. This kind of thing has happened from morning to now. This has happened several times.

Before the pre-recording this morning, the on-site PD got angry several times. Chi Jingyuan also witnessed several members of a girl group being scolded and cried. He didn't expect to encounter them again.

Chi Jingyuan followed the members and slowed down. He stood there and listened to a few words. He probably heard that it was during rehearsal or recording something just now. A member of the girl group seemed to have taken a nap or did something. Anyway, she didn’t pay attention and made a mistake during the rehearsal. She didn’t seem to hear her when she was called and didn’t respond immediately. The staff felt that they had a bad attitude and immediately got angry.

Dozed off in rehearsal? There should be no one doing this on purpose. Isn’t this looking for scolding...

I guess I'm sick, or didn't sleep last night or something.

Chi Jingyuan was dumbfounded when he heard the general situation of the matter, and speculated a little by himself.

Although something happened, it was impossible to stop and move forward. After learning what happened, EXO breathed a sigh of relief and picked up the pace again and walked around the corner.

Chi Jingyuan, who was walking behind the team, looked up and saw a lot of people standing backstage toward the exit of the studio. A middle-aged PD with a work badge on his chest and a director's hat looked very... She was angry and was yelling sternly at a girl group standing in a row in front of people.

This PD Chi Jingyuan knows Jin Nancheng, an on-site director of the "Music Bank" program group. He is usually responsible for pre-recording and rehearsal work. He is impatient and usually irritable. At least since he became the MC, Chi Jingyuan has seen He has scolded guest artists many times.

However, Chi Jingyuan paused when he saw the group of women standing in a row being scolded.

It's actually twice?

He paused for a moment and then focused his gaze. At this time, eight people from Twice stood in a straight row against the wall, with their hands either behind their backs or in front of them. They all had their heads drooped and looked wilted, something they had never seen before. Zhou Ziyu stood at the end of the team. Not many people were affected, but his dark face still looked bitter.

There was another member, Saka Minatozaki, who did not stand with the others. Instead, she was carried in front of everyone and stood there alone, bearing most of Jin Nancheng's anger alone.

It looks like she was the member who took a nap and had a bad attitude just now?

At this moment, Saka Minatozaki, who was the first to bear the brunt, stood there looking a little pitiful, her eyes were red, and she kept wiping the tears flowing from the corners of her eyes with her fingers. There was a delicate smell about her whole body, and she even made the sound of twitching her nose. He didn't sound very energetic, but he kept apologizing with a choked cry.

The golden bun hung down to block some of the contours of the face, but it did not block the lips that were tightened and wrinkled together, looking a little aggrieved.

Twice's manager was also standing next to him, and there was nothing he could do about it. He just smiled and apologized along with him.

EXO's approaching footsteps also attracted the attention of everyone here. After gently glancing at the person coming, twice quickly turned back, not daring to look in this direction.

It is really embarrassing to be seen in this scene of being reprimanded in person, especially if there are acquaintances involved, it will be really embarrassing.

Minazaki Saka, who was crying the most ugly, didn't even dare to look at her. After hearing the footsteps, her head involuntarily dropped a little lower, and her crying seemed to be quieter.

She didn't want to be surrounded by familiar and unfamiliar people watching her cry.

Jin Nancheng's roaring voice also stopped. Being interrupted, he looked over angrily. Just when he was about to say a few words sharply, he suddenly saw that it was EXO. He was about to speak out. pause.

Especially after seeing Chi Jingyuan in the crowd, his arrogant aura was relieved. Although he didn't force a smile, he still looked more normal than when he was lecturing others.

"..." He nodded to the EXO people who saluted him, and then looked at Chi Jingyuan behind him: "Jingyuan, are you here for the rehearsal?"

Jin Nancheng's tone was obviously more controlled, which was very different from the angry roar just now, but it could be seen that he was still quite angry, otherwise he wouldn't have asked so knowingly.

When she heard this name, Minazaki Saka, who was suddenly standing at the front of the team, lowered her head even further.

Chi Jingyuan quickly glanced at the people in Twice who didn't dare to raise their heads, and his eyes stayed on Minazaki Sasha for a second, then he laughed softly, quickened his pace and walked towards Jin Nancheng, using a familiar tone He asked: "Brother, why did you lose your temper so much? It's much worse than you did in the morning."

"You don't even know that the newcomers nowadays really don't know what to say, Axi..."

Hearing Chi Jingyuan's inquiry, Jin Nancheng seemed to express his desire. He sighed and was about to say something. At the same time, he turned his head and seemed to be ready to curse Minozaki Saka.

However, Chi Jingyuan walked up to interrupt him at this time, patted his back gently, and said casually in a nonchalant tone: "It's normal for newcomers to make mistakes. Didn't we do the same back then?" Same thing, just give me a lesson and calm down..."

At the same time, Chi Jingyuan pushed him forward with a little force: "Okay, it's our turn to rehearse. It's such an important occasion without you keeping an eye on me. There are a lot of things to do later, so hurry up and don't delay. …”

Jin Nancheng felt the force coming from behind and understood a little bit of what Chi Jingyuan meant, but he did not resist and was pushed two steps towards the studio.

To be honest, he was quite angry just now, but after scolding him for a few times, his anger was almost gone, and all that was left was just a slight shake of authority.

But even if you want to show off your power, it still depends on the person.

After being pushed for two steps, Jin Nancheng saw this and took the opportunity to move down a level. However, he still looked back at Twice's manager and said: "Newcomers need to strengthen management. How can such a thing happen on a show? Today If not... forget it..."

He didn't bother to say anything else in the middle of the sentence, and he and Chi Jingyuan took the lead and walked toward the studio. The EXO members behind him looked at each other and exchanged glances, and then glanced at Twice, who didn't dare to speak, with a weird expression. followed and left quickly.

The unbearable reprimand was over as soon as it was over. Several people from Twice looked at the backs of Chi Jingyuan and EXO who were coming and going quickly. They were all silent for a moment. Zhou Ziyu stood there with her lips pursed.

Some people even didn't react, and their expressions seemed to be wondering if someone just left like that?

Minazaki Saka also raised her head slightly and looked over there.

It was already uncomfortable and aggrieved to be taught a lesson due to her mistake, and to be seen in public made her feel unspeakable embarrassment and humiliation. Just now, she just wanted to ask the visitor to leave quickly, and in the end It's better not to recognize her.

Unexpectedly, after the wind brought by the figure blew gently on her face, the PD who had been standing in front of her for a long time and had just been scolded was pushed away. The extremely painful scolding also came to an abrupt end. The change was so fast that her tears were still hanging from her eyes. On the face, it keeps flowing.

Her eyes were red, and there was an obvious layer of mist covering her eyes as she looked over there.

Unfortunately, when I looked over now, EXO and Jin Nancheng had already entered the studio, and they saw nothing except the exit, which was a mixture of light and dark.

"Sana, are you okay?"

"do not Cry."

After Jin Nancheng walked away, the two neon sisters from behind quickly came over and reached out to her side to help wipe away her tears. Several other members also reacted and gathered around her.

Seeing Saka Minatozaki crying miserably and looking pitiful, the members of Twice showed some sympathy and concern.

I just said that the entire group was reprimanded, but in fact Minazaki Saka alone accounted for most of it, and the others just stood back and listened.

"well……"

The manager looked at the scene in front of him and didn't know whether to blame or complain. He glanced at the several members surrounding Minatozaki Saka, waved his hand and urged: "Don't be stuck here, let's go back first. Bar."

…

It was quite natural after Chi Jingyuan left. He quickly started rehearsing with the members, and then prepared for the broadcast.

In fact, he didn't think much about it. He just happened to see something bad happened to Zhou Ziyu and other acquaintances, so he just helped them out. It didn't take much trouble. It was just a small thing for him.

But if it were anyone else, Chi Jingyuan probably wouldn't have cared about it. It's actually quite common for TV station PDs to teach artists a lesson. He's seen a lot and can't control it at all.

As for the reason for being reprimanded, it actually doesn't matter. Things like falling asleep or having a good attitude have nothing to do with him.

Anyway, he wasn't talking to Minazaki Saka.

But when this girl cried, she still tried to lower her voice and cry, not wanting to cry too ugly... It was really pitiful to see.
