"The protagonist of The Show this week is..."

"red velvet, thick camemida!"

As MC Zhou Mi announced the winner of "The Show", the five red velvet members standing next to the MC were all moved. Some of them opened their eyes wide and seemed to be in disbelief. Others His expression was dull, as if he didn't react.

It can be seen that all five of them knew that this time the results were not good, and they were not mentally prepared to win the first place. When they got the trophy, they were a little at a loss.

Bae Zhuhyun originally pursed her lips and looked calm, looking in front of her in a daze, as if this person had nothing to do with them. It was not until she got the trophy that she came back to her senses, a smile appeared on her face, and she began to speak excitedly with the microphone. Made a speech.

Bae Zhuhyun, who has always been good at endorsements, actually seemed a little flustered when talking about her speech this time. She got stuck at the end. She looked to the left and to the right, as if she didn't know how to express her emotions.

"Ah... We are all worried about this album... Thank you all very much for letting us win the first place this time..."

When Park Soo-young delivered his speech, his eyes immediately turned red, and he started to choke before he finished speaking. He quickly ended his words and wiped his eyes with his hand.

And Kang Seulgi held it in when she won the award, but finally couldn't hold it in during the encore stage. When the other members sang in front, she hid behind the juniors and wiped her tears with her back to the audience. In the end, it was their competition today. Opponent and fellow candidate MAMAMOO saw it and came over to give him a comforting hug.

After the encore performance, Jiang Seulgi walked off the stage and finally couldn't hold it any longer. As soon as she walked off, she stood there and howled and started crying.

The pressure on them these past few days has been too great. No one could sleep at midnight last night. Several members got up worried and asked each other what to do. All they got was silence and wordless heaviness.

They never expected that this song would win first place. At this time, the pressure and worries of many days were finally able to be released, and some members finally couldn't bear it anymore.

Bae Zhuhyun's eyes flashed with tears after seeing it. She walked to Jiang Seulqi, but she was in mixed emotions and couldn't say anything. She just patted her shoulder gently to express comfort.

Only Sun Shengwan was the most energetic. He ran over to the two of them and comforted them with a hearty voice: "Why are you crying? Stop crying. Stop crying!"

"Ugh... I really didn't expect that we could get one this time..." Seeing her sister and relatives coming, Jiang Seulqi choked with tears, venting her emotions in the past few days.

"Who would have thought that yesterday I was worried about being disbanded... Hahaha, don't cry because it's so ugly." Sun Shengwan burst out laughing when he heard this, and hugged Bae Zhuhyun and Kang Seulgi, looking optimistic and cheerful The look of a sister.

"Unnie, aren't you going to cry too?"

"...Hum...nope"

"Ha ha."

After red velvet won the first place in "The Show" on the 22nd, he won the "Show Champion" and "M!" in the next two days! countdown" trophy.

Winning the first place cannot reverse the fact that red velvet's return performance is poor. Sometimes, winning the first place does not mean that the results are very good. It may be due to the fans' efforts, or it may be because the competitors at the same time are not very strong.

Red Velvet has both. Except for the fact that its biggest rival MAMAMOO has returned in January and entered the final season, Chi Jingyuan heard from Bae Zhuhyun that Xia Guo’s fans made a great contribution in voting for these few.

But no matter what, being able to get the first place in the singing competition is also a great encouragement for Red Velvet in an unfavorable situation. It can release their pressure to a certain extent. At least they have been on the phone with Bae Zhuhyun in the past two days. When communicating with Sun Shengwan and the others, Chi Jingyuan clearly felt that the mood of his father and relatives was much better than the previous two days. Although he was not too happy, he was not as tight as before. .

A week after returning, I finally heard good news.

…………

Red Velvet is working hard on songs and schedules, trying to make the album that is doomed to fail perform better and regain some of the lost popularity. EXO is also busy preparing for their new album. In addition to becoming more proficient in the dance of "Fire" In addition, the recording work has been completed very quickly in the past two days.

The secret to the satisfactory progress is very simple. Seniors in the same company often do this. It is nothing more than giving more parts to those who sing well and record quickly, and give one or two lines to those who sing poorly to mix along.

After Ji Jingyuan was busy with the new album for a few days, he also came to JYP again on the 24th. Today, in addition to checking Twice's current preparation progress for the song "Cheer Up", there was also MV production. A meeting is about to be held.

Just when he came out of the parking lot and was a little bored waiting for the elevator on the first floor. When he looked at a Twice poster that seemed to have just been hung on the wall next to him, there was a chirping sound coming from behind. It sounded familiar. Before he waited, He looked back and heard a greeting coming from him.

"Oh, that rice just now was really, too salty...ah, Oppa, Anihasaya..."

Chi Jingyuan, who heard the commotion, turned around and took a look. Kim Dahyun, Zhou Ziyu, and Sun Chaeyoung were standing behind, each carrying a small bag. They were saying hello and looking at him with surprise.

Chi Jingyuan was reading the pictorial just now, but now the real person suddenly appeared in front of him. He had a strange feeling inexplicably. He felt that the pictorial was far less pleasing to the eye than the real person.

"What a coincidence?"

Chi Jingyuan nodded to the three people, smiled and said, "Just finished eating?"

His eyes stopped on Zhou Ziyu for a while and he looked at her. This girl was still wearing the school uniform and carrying a schoolbag. Her big eyes blinked and she looked quite innocent.

"Nay, we just had dinner. Oppa came so early today?"

"I'm going to have a meeting with your PD later to discuss the MV." Chi Jingyuan looked a little lazy, as if he had just gotten up.

Sun Caiying's eyes lit up when she heard this, she covered her mouth in surprise, and then she came over and asked softly: "qingjia? Oppa, are we going to shoot the MV? When?"

She speaks very distinctively, with her own unique ending, which sounds very interesting.

"Not sure yet, but it should wait until next month..."

"That's soon."

"Oppa, have you watched our variety show?" Kim Dahyun asked with a smile after a few pleasantries, looking very excited.

"I watched a little bit, it was quite interesting."

At this time, the elevator finally arrived. Chi Jingyuan nodded as he walked in. After standing still, he looked at Zhou Ziyu who was secretly observing next to him and clicked his tongue: "I didn't realize that your ears are so big before. Right, Yoda?”

What Kim Da Hyun was talking about was the group variety show "Elegant Private Life" that Twice recently aired on Mnet. Ji Kyung Won even watched two episodes during his free time. The filming was quite interesting, and there were two scenes that left the deepest impression on him. , one is Lin Nayeon cutting strawberries with the back of a knife, and then she was extremely surprised and sincerely praised Yu Dingyan who pointed out this point, "Have you discovered this?" You are so smart’.

Chi Jingyuan didn't know if she was pretending to be stupid for the sake of broadcasting effect or if her brain was just a little bit dull. Anyway, her expression was exactly the same as Chi Jingyuan's reaction when he pointed out that she had picked up the potato chips backwards some time ago.

The other one is Zhou Ziyu, who is nicknamed "Yoda", lifting his head and moving his ears.

Zhou Ziyu was still eavesdropping when he suddenly saw Chi Jingyuan mentioning that he immediately pouted with some dissatisfaction and smacked the corners of his mouth twice. Although he didn't make a sound, judging from the shape of his mouth, he should be saying something casually. 'You have big ears'.

Chi Jingyuan looked at Zhou Ziyu's side face, and his eyes seemed to go through her hair and directly to her ears: "Yoda is such an unpleasant nickname. Who gave it to you?"

Before Zhou Ziyu could complain, Chi Jingyuan nodded again: "Don't tell me, it's a bit similar."

"Pfft..." Kim Dahyun and Son Chaeyoung couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Seeing that Zhou Ziyu seemed a little angry, Chi Jingyuan smiled and added to himself: "But I think 'Piggy' is more appropriate. Fatty is so cute."

"..."

Her emotions were controlled very steadily. Zhou Ziyu was dissatisfied and happy at times. She couldn't help turning around and rolling her eyes at Chi Jingyuan. She looked at him and suddenly blinked: "Why do you look so unenergetic?"

Seeing Chi Jingyuan's confused eyes, Zhou Ziyu pointed at his eyes and said word by word: "Dark circles!"

"You can see this? Because I've been sleeping very late these days."

Chi Jingyuan pushed up his glasses on the bridge of his nose, slightly surprised.

Today he was wearing a light-colored sweatshirt and jeans, a very ordinary private outfit. At the same time, because he was completely bare-faced, he specially wore a pair of eyes to cover his eyes. He didn't expect Zhou Ziyu's eyes to be so sharp.

"Isn't "The Signal" over?"

"..." Chi Jingyuan sighed and looked at her with a slightly strange look: "You think you are the only ones preparing an album? I am an idol too..."

"qingjia? Is EXO senior Nim coming back?" Sun Chaeyoung, who was listening happily to the conversation between the two, became excited again. She looked at her with a curious look on her face like a loyal Ari, her eyes were big, and she was not inferior to Zhou Ziyu.

"Well, it should be a little later than you..."

Chi Jingyuan nodded and said casually, then looked at the opened elevator door. The three girls who had already reached the floor of the twice practice room but had no reaction reminded them loudly: "Are you... here?"

"Ah... Nai, thank you Oppa."

The three people looked up, nodded hurriedly and trotted out. Each of them turned back to thank Chi Jingyuan with a sly smile.

Chi Jingyuan waved his hand slightly speechlessly, and pressed the door close button several times in order to ease their embarrassment.

He did not go to their practice room with Zhou Ziyu and the other three, but went directly to Park Zhenying's office. He chatted with the brother for a while, exchanged opinions, and then went to the conference room for a meeting together.

The song "cheer up" actually has no obvious theme. The focus of the MV is actually to show the dance and the charm of each member. There is no need to make up a story for the MV.

After discussion, JYP also agreed to Ji Kyung Won's proposal to "show each member's unique charm by shooting different shots and clips of each member."

Then after some discussion, this proposal was expanded and added to include "each member cosplays to imitate a movie, or characters and scenes in film and television dramas, and uses these classic screen images to amplify the personality of each member of Twice" Features and memory points'

To put it bluntly, each of the nine members found a scene from a movie or TV series to imitate, and then edited it together.

Coincidentally, Park Zhenying originally had a similar idea. After Chi Jingyuan proposed it, his eyes lit up and they hit it off. To a certain extent, the heroes saw the same thing.

This MV is quite simple to say, but it is actually quite troublesome to actually do. Just framing different backgrounds actually requires a lot of energy, which is much more responsible than an MV where you dance and act cool all the way in one place. The most important thing is to find memorable movie scenes that are suitable for Twice members so that they can imitate them, and to create a look that suits each person.

Especially for the latter, the makeup of the idol group's return is very important. Ji Jingyuan also emphasized this point during the meeting, because after observing some of Twice's looks on stage and in front of the camera after their debut, he had a lot of opinions on JYP's look. The cody group no longer has any sense of trust and expectations.

Chi Jingyuan even came up with the idea that he could do better as a cody in Twice than his predecessors, because at least he knew not to put so much blush on Lin Nalian and Mingnan’s faces. Also know that pink heels look really weird with blue socks.

After setting the MV shooting time in early April and confirming some preparations for the background and props, the meeting ended. After chatting with Park Jin Young about work for a while, Chi Kyung Won went with Kim Sang Min. Visited Twice’s practice room.

"Be fascinated by me, 5 4 3 2 1..."

"Touchdown!"

When they walked into the practice room, the nine members of Twice were practicing the dance of a song in the album. Just halfway through the dance, Chi Jingyuan stood in the corner and watched the dance of the song with interest for a while.

“Is this the originally planned title song?”

He looked at it for a while and then asked in a low voice to Jin Shangmin next to him.

Park Jin Young mentioned to him when chatting before that twice originally planned to use "touchdown" as the title song for this comeback. This song is similar in style to the debut song "Like OOH-AH" and is more girlish. A bit more crush and power, which can be considered to be in line with the debut style.

However, after careful consideration, JYP decided to change the style of Twice. At that time, Ji Kyung Won's "Come on" demo for Park Jin Young came into their view. They didn't know what evil happened, but they used it like they had found a treasure. Within a short period of time, it was decided to use "Come on" as the main song.

"Yes, that was the initial plan, and the company is also very optimistic about this song." Jin Shangmin nodded, and then gave some insider information: "But Park Jinying PDnim feels that children are not digesting this style very well. The style of the song It was too intense and somewhat obscured the highlights of the members themselves... Later, he was the one who advocated for "Cheer Up" to be the main hit, and we actually didn't expect it."

"Um……"

Chi Jingyuan nodded lightly.

He actually didn't expect it, and he was quite puzzled when he learned that this song, which was considered a waste by SM, would become the title song of Twice, but this is actually a good thing, because no matter whether the song's performance is good or bad, Lee Soo Man One of the two people must have a brain problem.

At that time, Chi Jingyuan can stand on the side of the winner and laugh at the person who has no vision.

"Let's skip "cheer up" and see how you are practicing now..."

After taking a short break after dancing to "Touchdown", Chi Jingyuan clapped his hands and started directing. The nine girls quickly stood up from the floor, lined up and started performing.

After practicing for so long, the nine members of Twice have mastered the dance of this song very well. In terms of the strength and uniformity of the movements, they have actually reached the level of performing on stage. Although the choreography is relatively simple, it is also It can be seen that he has practiced hard.

And now, Chi Jingyuan actually feels more and more that the style of the song "Cheer Up" is very suitable for Twice. The effect and appeal of this cute and cute dance are obviously better than the song "Touchdown" just now. Of course there are a lot of them, especially for a few of the members, such as Lin Nalian, who really shines when she curls up her hands and grins cutely.

After just watching them dance a few times, Chi Jingyuan pursed his lips as if thinking about something, and then stopped them after the third dance.

"What do you think of the choreography of the part 'My Hometown Shyshyshy'?"

Chi Jingyuan stretched out his hand and waved it up and down, imitating their dance movements just now, and asked tentatively at the same time.

"It's okay..." Park Zhixiao and others also waved their arms, not understanding what Chi Jingyuan meant.

"Sana, what do you think?" Chi Jingyuan looked at Minatozaki Saka: "You are the one to sing this part. What do you think of this action..."

When her name was called, Minazaki Saka opened her mouth slightly and made movements with her hands. After hesitating for a few seconds, she whispered back: "Yes, a bit ordinary?"

"Yes, I think so too." Chi Jingyuan and Minatozaki Saka glanced at each other and nodded: "This part should be very cute. Your voice is also sweeter, but the current choreography is too much. It's just ordinary, and overall it has no special features..."

The choreography of this "shyshyshy" is very ordinary, just straighten the left and right hands, shake them and then cross them, there is nothing special about it.

Chi Jingyuan paused as he spoke, then looked at the nine Twice people in front of him: "I think it would be better to change the action to a cuter one... I'm not very good at this, do you have any ideas?"

"Is it a cuter one?" Upon hearing this, Sun Chaeyoung put her hands next to her eyes and started dancing, and the other members followed suit. Some started to try to choreograph after listening to Chi Jingyuan's words, like It was Hirai Momo, and some of them hadn't grasped the context yet, so they looked curiously at the people next to them, such as Nai Minami.

"How about this?" Minatozaki Saka put her hands on her chest, stretched out her index finger and kept tapping, with an expression of 'baby is embarrassed and shy', and then looked at Chi Jingyuan expectantly and asked. .

"This is okay." Chi Jingyuan nodded.

Hirai Momo also thought of a move, pouted slightly and swayed her hands on both sides of her body: "How about Oppa?"

"It's almost the same as before, but better than the original version." Chi Jingyuan jumped after her movements and commented after thinking for a while.

Pretending to be cute is indeed something that female idols specialize in. Just like talents and skills, there is no need to think about it. Everyone just thinks about acting.

"shyshyshy~shyshyshy~shyshyshy~"

At this time, a noise nearby attracted Chi Jingyuan's attention. He glanced around and found that Lin Nalian, who was standing nearby, had started playing in the middle of the choreography and was looking cute to Yu Dingyan. , while grinning extremely artificially and winking, while curling his hands into fists, cupping them on both sides of his cheeks like a kitten.

Yu Dingyan, who was being attacked in a pretentious manner, was leaning against the wall, looking helpless and looking at the eldest sister in front of him who kept saying "shyshyshy~". Looking at her expression, he wanted to kick the person in front of him away. .

"Huh……"

Chi Jingyuan watched for a while and suddenly became energetic: "Na Lianxi's move is good."

"Ah?" Lin Nalian was performing when she suddenly heard her name. Her movements stopped suddenly, turned around and looked at Chi Jingyuan, confirming that his eyes were looking at her, and at the same time she realized that he had just After saying this, the fist still placed next to his cheek was raised twice in a daze.

The meaning is obvious: ‘Are you sure you are talking about my current actions? ’

"This action is pretty good..." Chi Jingyuan nodded, clenched his fists and imitated Lin Nalian's actions just now, and then pouted at the other members: "You guys try it and I'll see..."

"Very good, then the choreography for this part will now be changed to this movement..."

"Besides, sana's movements just now were also good. I'm thinking about it and try putting 'mi ah nei' in the previous sentence..."

…

Chi Jingyuan suddenly had an idea and made some small adjustments to the choreography of "Cheer Up". None of the members of Twice expressed any objections. It is normal to adjust the choreography. Change a few moves every few days. This is the norm, and many groups have even changed their choreography when they return to singing.

And in Chi Jingyuan's opinion, the effect is indeed much better. As far as these two parts are concerned, they look much more energetic and cute than the previous arm shaking. Especially after the performance by Minatozaki Saka, this originally was nothing. The highlight aria has the potential to become a killing part.

After confirming the changes to the choreography, Chi Jingyuan asked them to rest for a while and practice by themselves, while he found a place to sit on the sofa and began to think about what would be more suitable for Twice and others in the MV. Movies and characters to imitate.

"Oppa, drink water!"

A few minutes later, a familiar voice rang in his ears. Kim Dahyun stood beside him with a glass of freshly received water and handed it over to him. Sun Chaeyoung followed suit and looked at Chi Kyungwon with a smile.

"Thanks."

Chi Jingyuan took it with a smile and thanked him.

After working as a producer for Twice, Park Jae Hyun's usual job of fetching water was almost replaced by Kim Da Hyun. The caring little girl still looks the cutest.

Some people of the same age just don’t wink.

"hey-hey……"

The two little girls smiled, and then they took out their mobile phones. Kim Dahyun asked tentatively: "Oppa, can we exchange contact information?"

Chi Jingyuan looked at the two people who seemed a little nervous, smiled, nodded and said naturally: "Okay."

Kim Da Hyun reminded him that after working as a producer for Twice for so long, he still only has contact information for Zhou Tzuyu and Ming Jingnan. In fact, it is easy for others to think hard.

As he spoke, he reached for the shoulder bag next to him, opened the zipper and took out his mobile phone, and asked proactively: "What is your number..."

Kim Dahyun quickly reported his phone number and added kakaotalke’s friends by the way.

Seeing the excitement here, Minazaki Saka was the first to come over. She tilted her head and pursed her lips to observe for a while, then her eyes lit up, and she went back and took her mobile phone. After a while, several other members They also came over, and soon Chi Jingyuan exchanged numbers with all the other members of Twice.

Whether they are their own producers, seniors in the industry, or even TOP idols, they are of course happy to exchange contact information.

Mingjing Nan is very interesting. She already had her number, and she even pretended to come over and walk around. After feeling Chi Jingyuan's strange gaze, she looked over and showed her gums cutely, smiling a little shyly.

He didn't expect that Lin Nalian would come too. When Chi Jingyuan saw Daban Ya who was following behind, he hesitated whether to exchange contact information with her. He only changed his mobile phone number last year. If it was exposed again, The words are really a bit uncomfortable.

But everyone else gave it, and it would be too targeted if she was the only one left. Even in the face of his own negative fans, Chi Jingyuan still did not embarrass this girl.

If you don't count Lin Nalian's anti-fan attributes, he actually thinks that this rabbit is quite likable after having been in contact with her for so long.

pity.

After chatting for a while, Chi Jingyuan walked out of the practice room and went to the restroom. When he came back, he found Yu Dingyan and Minatozaki Saka walking around the door of the practice room, seemingly waiting for someone.

The two people heard the footsteps and looked over. When they saw it was Chi Jingyuan, they were immediately happy and walked over quickly.

"Birthday?"
