"well……"

Park Zhenying sighed, his tone containing deep emotion and frustration.

In his opinion, if Chi Jingyuan followed his brother to JYP first, the one with the highest stock price among the three major stock prices might be JYP. How could he persist in a desperate struggle for a few years and then put his trust in a new person? Above the girl group

"Haha..." Chi Jingyuan was amused by his slightly exaggerated expression. He looked around at the eight members of Twice, shook his head and comforted perfunctorily: "Maybe if I come to JYP, I will take another path. Well...and isn’t my company Twice now?”

Although JYP's stock has not yet risen significantly, it is obviously much better than the last two and a half years. No one has mentioned the nickname "Frappuccino" for some time.

Especially with the explosion of Twice this time, it has injected new energy into the entire company of JYP. If Twice can continue to develop smoothly, it is foreseeable that JYP will come back to life and improve the predicament of previous years.

Although, even if it rebounds, it may still be far away from SM having EXO...

"Ha ha……"

Park Zhenying laughed and looked around at the girls around her. Her expressions were kind and kind, and she was obviously very satisfied with Twice.

Although this incident about Chi Jingyuan had always stuck in his throat at first, but now that it was over, he just took the opportunity to recall that it was actually mostly a performance, and he soon recovered, and turned to look at Chi with a smile. Jingyuan: "At that time, you were almost a member of our family, and with the subsequent cooperation and shareholding matters, I actually always regarded you, Jingyuan, as one of my own..."

His small eyes narrowed into a straight line, and his smile was a little cunning: "Maybe after your contract with SM expires, you will transfer to us..."

"My contract? Brother, are you thinking too far ahead? It's still early for my contract to expire..."

Chi Jingyuan shook his head and did not answer his words.

His contract was signed separately. Compared with the contracts of other EXO members, the restrictions in it are much looser. It is a contract specially prepared by SM for him and can be called a preferential treatment.

However, relatively speaking, the length of his contract is the same as others' agreed seven years. It has only been more than four years since it was signed in 2012, and it will not be considered for renewal until 1819.

...Although to be honest, the contract does not restrict him very much.

After a two-second pause, Chi Jingyuan picked up the wine glass and shook it. Feeling the looming sights around him, he looked at Park Zhenying jokingly and continued: "Besides, even if the contract expires, I really don't dare to come..."

Seeing Park Zhenying's confused look, Chi Jingyuan pursed his lips to the side: "Because... brother, do your artists have too many schedules? As far as I'm concerned, not to mention others, it's just Twice's." There are so many activities scheduled during the non-return period that it’s scary. When I was making “Cheer Up”, I saw that they didn’t even have time to sleep, let alone during the return period. I felt horrified when I saw that schedule... …”

"I feel like EXO is not as busy as Twice right now..."

Hearing that their own affairs were suddenly discussed, the girls next to them also slowed down their movements. While listening to Chi Jingyuan's words, they carefully looked at Park Zhenying.

This brother's smile became a little embarrassed.

Chi Jingyuan shrugged, raised his eyes and recalled: "I remember that the busiest period since EXO's debut was probably... it should have been the "Roar" period in 2013.

Because my previous debut was not a success, and during that time, the song’s activities suddenly gained a lot of popularity, so the company arranged a lot of schedules, and there was very little time for rest. At that time, I remember that I could only I caught up on some sleep in the lounge and in the nanny's car...but now that I think about it, it was just like Twice before. "

JYP doesn’t know whether it’s because of the psychological shadow of being on the streets in the past few years, or whether it has finally found a way to escape the quagmire. Twice’s workload has been exaggerated since they debuted well. From the time they debuted in October last year until now, except for a month at the beginning of the year, It's a bit leisurely, and at other times, even if it's not the return period, the schedule is full.

Needless to say, when it comes to the "cheer up" activity period, Chi Jingyuan feels scary and a little confused after watching it...

How popular are you? Why are you busier than us?

Other artists under JYP are quite normal. For example, the schedules of boy groups such as Day6 and GOT7 are quite normal, but they just fucked a new girl group, maybe because Twice can make money... Chi Jingyuan didn't dare to think, With his ability to attract money, if he joins JYP, will his stage name be changed to thrice?

SM is okay here, because it has more foundation. Even though EXO has become the biggest cash cow, it has not arranged any death schedule. Even because of the celebrity and the company's image setting of EXO, many low-end variety shows and activities have been I stopped answering them at all, and sometimes even seemed more leisurely.

Except for special times when all kinds of schedules and preparation activities are crowded together, the rest of the schedule is relatively normal. Even during the return period, he can even find time to play games and fall in love - this is what makes Chi Jing The source is quite satisfied.

Chi Jingyuan looked at Park Zhenying and squinted his eyes innocently:

"I'm actually quite lazy. I may not be able to endure such a heavy workload."

"Uh-huh..." Facing Chi Jingyuan's joking questioning, Park Zhenying covered it up with a slightly embarrassed smile.

Park Jin Young certainly knows that sometimes the schedule arrangements for his groups can be a bit too much.

Although he is also a singer himself, he seems to be more approachable when communicating and getting along with his artists, but no matter how amiable he appears, after all, when it comes to running the company and the group, his stance is definitely on the side of the company. In fact, there is no essential difference from operators like Lee Soo Man and Yang Hyun Suk.

It's not easy for Park Jin Young to directly say to Chi Jingyuan in front of other people, "You are different from Twice. If you come, how dare we arrange so much work for you" or something like that.

But of course he would not be troubled by such a thing. He glanced at Sun Chaeyoung and Zhou Ziyu next to him: "We worked hard like this when we were rookies. It's the same with every group. Now it's Twice." The best time to accumulate popularity..."

"Yes..." Chi Jingyuan nodded with a smile and didn't say much. He just mentioned it casually, making an excuse to decline Park Zhenying's hinted invitation just now.

He could see that although the schedule might be very heavy, girls like Twice felt like they were enjoying it.

It doesn't matter whether they are tired or not. After all, compared to being tired, popularity is the most important thing in their hearts now... It is exactly the same as EXO's mentality back then, and even the mentality of all newcomers in the industry.

Some people don’t have a chance even if they are tired...

At this time, although the girls Zhou Ziyu, Minazaki Saka, and Nai Minami were wearing private clothes, and some of them still had unconcealed fatigue in their brows, everyone seemed to be in good spirits.

Everyone is dressed beautifully, Zhou Ziyu’s waist-baring short jacket paired with jeans, Minato Saka’s pleated skirt, Nai Minami’s one-shoulder bat shirt...

Compared with when they first debuted and when they were preparing the album a few months ago, everyone seems more mature and more confident. At first glance, their eyebrows are shining, and their eyes are shining with elegance. Under this kind of spiritual temperament It has a charm that makes people appreciate it.

Even a little brat like Zhou Ziyu looks a little conspicuous.

Chi Jingyuan saw and felt clearly.

Red can really nourish people, and popularity is the best cosmetic.

"And their return period is almost over. After these two days of work, there will be a holiday for everyone to have a good rest..."

As if not wanting to leave a bad impression on Chi Jingyuan, Park Zhenying added another sentence, and then took the initiative to change to another topic: "Then they will start preparing for their new album."

What he said also aroused Chi Jingyuan's interest. He blinked and looked at him: "Oh? Are you coming back again? Have you decided on the song?"

Everyone in the industry, and even fans, can see that 2016 is a very clear generational change year for girl groups. Because of age, man-made disasters and other reasons, older generation girl groups such as Girls' Generation, Apink, and AOA have obviously become more powerful. Not surprisingly, the new generation of girl groups have all shown their brilliance this year, each one more conspicuous than the last.

Red Velvet, who was originally in the lead, had no choice but to fall behind due to the return of "July 7th", while Gfriend and Twice soared to the sky with a hit song respectively. So far, these two girl groups have shown competition The potential of the new generation’s number one girl group.

Twice's next comeback is very critical for them. Whether they can continue the popularity of "Cheer Up" and strike while the iron is hot to establish their own status, or whether they fail in the street and fall into a disadvantage in the competition with the girl groups of the same generation and return to their original form depends on this. Once.

But it seems... red vevet is also in the same situation, even more serious.

"The songs to be included are still being selected, but the title song is almost confirmed."

"Brother, you wrote the song this time?" Chi Jingyuan asked curiously.

He is quite curious, but he has no interest in participating this time. He also has to prepare for his solo, the group's reissued album, concerts, subway music and even TV series. His work is already too busy.

The Twice people next to them also looked at these two people with smiles, not too surprised. Apparently they had known about it before.

"That's right, it's a song written in the style of 'Vitality and Loveliness' that you designed before, Jingyuan. If you're interested, I'll send you the demo and give you my suggestions."

"Well, I'm a famous girl group player. How do you need my advice at your level..."

"Haha, you just like to be modest, don't you know? After Taeyeon Xi's "I" and "Cheer Up", you are now a famous girl group in the industry. There are countless companies and groups who want to cooperate with you. …”

"qingjia? Why haven't I heard of it...Does the new title song have a name?"

"Yes, I will send it to you when I get back. It's called "very very very""

…………

We had a great time chatting, the food tasted pretty good, and the beautiful people sitting next to us made the meal quite enjoyable.

Except for Zhou Ziyu, this was the first time for Chi Jingyuan to have a private meal with the rest of Twice. Although he did not have the perfect filter that Twice fans had for their idols, it felt quite novel to have dinner and chat with a group of teenage idols. of.

Although most of the girls couldn't let go because of Park Zhenying's presence, Chi Jingyuan still noticed a lot of interesting things, especially the eating habits of certain people.

Sun Chaeyoung was the most interesting. She was sitting next to Park Jinying but she kept eating and didn't pay much attention to the leader's speech. Her mouth kept moving and her eating posture was very contagious... Chi Jingyuan even noticed that Park Jinying looked at her in the middle. After several glances, the little girl didn't notice it.

Zhou Ziyu is still the same, sitting in a very upright posture. Every time he eats, he has to lower his head and tuck his hair behind his ears. Sometimes he has to put his left hand under his mouth to catch it, as if he is worried about the food falling. While eating, he noticed Chi Jingyuan's gaze, and then his face turned red, and he was embarrassed to hold back a smile.

Mingjing Nan eats in small sips and speaks softly. Her movements are very skillful and even a little graceful. She feels as if she has received special training. The way she chews with her mouth lightly covered is very elegant and inexplicably attractive.

Next to her, Lin Nalian kept stuttering, but Chi Jingyuan always felt that she seemed uncomfortable.

As for Minatozaki Sashachi Keigen, I don't know why. She seems to be a little inexplicably excited. She keeps looking at him while eating, and she smiles weirdly from time to time, as if she is possessed by something...

Thinking of this, Chi Jingyuan looked back at Minazaki Saka. She was holding Nai Minami's arm and whispering something. She still had a greasy smile and pouted, almost kissing her. Jing Nan's ears went up.

At this time, the dinner party has ended. A group of people came out of the box and walked in the aisle. Chi Jingyuan and Park Jinying took the lead in chatting in the front. Twice and JYP staff followed behind, not following closely. There were four or five meters distance.

"That's right." Just as he was talking, Park Jinying next to him suddenly mentioned something: "JYP Nation will be held in a while, Jingyuan, do you know?"

"Ah? I know, I've heard of it."

Hearing him mention this, Chi Jingyuan paused, nodded, and said with a smile: "It will be held in August, right? I have seen some of your live broadcasts on VAPP..."

JYP Nation is actually JYP's family concert, a joint performance in which all its artists will participate...it is actually the same nature as SM Company's SM TOWN.

However, because JYP has not developed smoothly in recent years and does not have top-level mainstay artists to attract box office, it is far inferior to SM Town in terms of scale and influence. SM Town holds world tour performances every year, and there are still several It's hard to get a ticket for the huge stadium with 10,000 people, and the last time JYP Nation held it was in 2014, and it only happens once every two years.

SM TOWN has lineups like EXO, TVXQ, Girls' Generation, SJ, JYP Nation has lineups like 2PM, WG, GOT7, day6, etc...

How can this compare?

By the way, there will be another Twice this year...

Some time ago, JYP announced that it would hold JYP Nation again this year. Park Jin Young personally composed the theme song of the concert specifically for this purpose, and also created a gimmick of dividing the theme song into parts, allowing many artists to team up and broadcast live on V APP for promotion. Ji Kyung Won Occasionally I clicked in and watched it twice...

how to say.

The live broadcast content is boring and embarrassing. It is difficult to understand that there are so many movements and gimmicks to divide the parts, but in the end the "rock paper scissors" method is used to decide which genius came up with the idea of ​​the part.

"Oh, you said that, haha..."

Hearing Ji Kyung-won mention the live broadcast, Park Jin-young couldn't help but laugh twice: "This is a family concert after two years. This year is the year when the company is back on track. Everyone in the company is very excited about this JYP Nation." We attach great importance to it, hoping to expand our influence and increase some stock prices. We have made a lot of preparations for this, including publicity, hardware, stage design, and many cooperation stages...

Then, in addition to the usual practice of inviting many parents and relatives of artists to come to support the children, many company executives will also come to watch. Jingyuan and your family have a lot of shares in the company, so they are all our own. In addition to replacing Director Cui who holds the shares, I also sent an invitation to your brother Jingxu Xi a few days ago. If you are interested, you can watch the children's performance together. "

"he?"

Chi Jingyuan was not surprised when he heard that Park Zhenying invited him. He had already expected it when he heard the brother mention it just now...but he was a little surprised by his brother Chi Jingxu's invitation.

He remembered that during EXO's first concert, SM invited all the parents of the members, including the second brother. The second brother was also very considerate, but he only said a few words to him backstage. I just left without watching the official performance at all.

Even though his brother was noisy, funny, and easy to talk to when we got along with him, when he came into contact with other people, his arrogance was deep-rooted in his bones. It was just not obvious because of his good tutoring.

Even when he met the parents of other EXO members, he behaved very gently and politely said hello and exchanged pleasantries, but in reality it was all for his brother's sake.

If it weren't for Chi Jingyuan, he probably wouldn't pay attention to Kpop at all... Presumably on the stage, he might be more interested in how many girls his brother has picked up.

Chi Jingyuan couldn't help but laugh, looked at Park Zhenying, and shook his head: "He should be...not interested in this kind of thing, right?"

"Huh? No way!"

Hearing Chi Jingyuan's statement, Park Zhenying also looked a little surprised, blinking at him: "When I talked to Jing Xuxi on the phone some time ago..."

"I feel like he's quite interested."
