Chapter 774 Cooperation
As Ji Jingyuan's voice became serious, the surroundings suddenly became quiet and the atmosphere was a little solemn. Wu Sehun and Jiang Seqi looked at each other and exchanged glances. There was no fear, but surprise flashed in their eyes.
Of course they could tell that this was not a scolding at all, but rather a different kind of care.
"..."
Yu Jeongyeon, who was the first to bear the brunt of the attack, paused for a moment, and seemed to understand the deep meaning of it. She did not feel annoyed or afraid at all. Instead, she looked up at Chi Jingyuan for a while, pursed her lips, and nodded vigorously: "I understand."
After saying that, she looked at Chi Jingyuan again and added, "Thank you, Oppa..."
"Just understand it yourself."
Seeing that she understood what he meant, Chi Jingyuan was no longer so serious and nodded: "Tell me, what do you think of your part?"
"..."
Yu Jeongyeon looked down at her already annotated music score, hesitated for a moment, and then said tentatively: "I think the end of the prat at 'I will take a step back' is a bit abrupt. It may be more complete if I stop after the next two sentences..."
"........."
Chi Jingyuan also looked at the music score and silently sang the lyrics she said, smacking his lips and savoring it. He looked at Yu Dingyan with some surprise and nodded in praise: "If you say so... it seems to be a little bit. I will sing it during the sound check later. If it's okay, I will sing these two lines for you as well."
Seeing Chi Jingyuan's expression and attitude, Yu Dingyan breathed a sigh of relief and felt a lot more relaxed. At the same time, she felt a sense of accomplishment and was moved.
The parts for the last two sentences belonged to Chi Jingyuan. This Oppa didn't show any dissatisfaction and gave the parts to himself directly and naturally.
Really are……
Being recognized for the first time she proposed her idea was a great encouragement to Yu Jeongyeon. She then proposed several more ideas of her own, some of which were recognized and praised by Ji Jingyuan, while others were criticized.
But no matter what, Yu Jeongyeon felt very happy, felt a strong sense of participation, and realized what Ji Jingyuan meant by "cooperation".
Although Chi Jingyuan is of course the center of the collaboration, she is also a member of the group. She is not here to gain popularity or be a backup dancer.
But it feels really good...
“Is there any part of the song you particularly like?”
"...Hmm...I quite like the line 'Let's meet now, I have something from the heart to tell you'."
"These two sentences require a change of tone, which is a little difficult... Try singing them later."
Chi Jingyuan was talking when he suddenly remembered something: "By the way, Jeongyeon, can you rap?"
"Well, I can sing a little, but not very well."
"How was the singing? Did Duoxian sing well?"
"Oppa... Dahyun is a dedicated rapper."
Hearing this, Yu Jeongyeon paused. She wanted to laugh but felt that she shouldn’t laugh at this time. She frowned for a while, explained with some resentment, and finally added tentatively in a low voice: "It should be, not much different..."
"That means it's better than Sehun."
"Axi..."
Ignoring Wu Sehun who was swearing out of rage, Ji Kyungwon immediately nodded and commented: "Then try this rap later. If it feels ok, then let Jeongyeon sing it... I think you would be pretty cool singing rap."
In Ji Jingyuan's opinion, Oh Sehun and Kim Dahyun have very similar positions in the pair.
Among so many members of EXO, Wu Sehun is not as talented as the lead singers in singing, nor as good as Kai in dancing. He is not eye-catching in anything he does, and is a little lacking in any responsibilities he is given. His only advantage is that he is handsome and tall, but in the eyes of the company, his appearance is not as likable as Park Chanyeol with thick eyebrows and big eyes, so he is not even given a face.
There was no other way, he couldn't do anything, so he had to be in charge of rapping... Rap wasn't difficult, and even if he didn't sing well, it wouldn't be too outrageous. A member couldn't just sit there doing nothing on stage, right? So you said let him rap.
It also took away Park Chanyeol's already limited number of words.
Kim Dahyun's position in Twice is somewhat similar, a little awkward. In the end, she imitated Wu Sehun a bit and took on the role of rap.
Although it may not be a good idea to say this, after all, Ji Jingyuan has a very good impression of Kim Da-hyun. She is a very cute and sensible girl.
But, he really felt this way subconsciously...
"OK……"
Yu Jeongyeon nodded, looking quite expectant.
…………
After the rough division, several people went to test the sound in the soundproof room of the music room. According to each person's voice and singing skills, as well as personal preferences and demands, Chi Jingyuan made some adjustments. It took nearly two hours to finally divide the parts of the entire song "Really Really".
Although there are more and less, some are the focus and some are the background...but it is enough to satisfy almost everyone.
Then a few people returned to the practice room and started learning dance, learning their moves in front of the floor-length mirror under the guidance of the dance teacher.
They have all been trainees for many years and are very professional idols. Learning dance is a very fast process and they no longer need to be taught one move at a time like beginners. Basically, they just need to follow the teacher and remember their moves and rhythm. The rest is practiced privately by themselves.
It was okay for Ji Jingyuan and a few others, as they could just find a teacher to practice with in the company when they had time. However, it was not very convenient for Yu Jeongyeon because she was in JYP. After some discussion, they specially arranged for a dance teacher to contact JYP, and asked him to contact JYP and go there directly to teach Yu Jeongyeon the dance for this song.
"That's about it for today. My first priority after returning home is to practice the song. I'll come to record at 21pm on the st. I'll be back from the crew by then..."
After another two hours of busy work, today's work came to an end. After communicating with the dance teacher for a while, Chi Jingyuan came over, panting, wiping the sweat from his head, and explained to Wu Sehun and others, as well as their agents and assistants.
After everyone nodded in agreement, Chi Jingyuan looked at the time again and took the initiative to suggest:
"We still have some time, let's have a meal together, and a few brothers can come with us, to celebrate our first meeting after working together... Wu Sehun is treating, just tell me what you want to eat, you're welcome."
After saying that, he looked at the agent who came with Yu Jeongyeon and asked with a smile, "Is it okay?"
The slightly plump agent smiled and nodded repeatedly: "Of course."
Even though it was Wu Sehun who treated them, they didn't specifically go out of their way to find a high-end, expensive place to rip people off. They just found a familiar barbecue restaurant near the SM building. EXO used to have dinner here from time to time, and the restaurant's signature dish was the delicious grilled large intestines.
A group of people booked two private rooms. Chi Jingyuan and his four companions stayed in one room, and the other agent and assistant stayed in another room. They were right opposite each other so they would not interfere with each other.
In addition to EXO, there are often artists who come here to eat. The waiter is knowledgeable and did not seem surprised. After taking the order, he quietly left.
Eating together is the easiest activity to bring people closer together. The four of them sat down here. Although they haven't officially started eating yet, the serious atmosphere when they were working just now has disappeared, and they feel relaxed all of a sudden. Kang Seulgi and Yu Jeongyeon, who were not very familiar with each other before, have gathered together, talking and laughing about the topic of clothing matching.
Chi Jingyuan took out his cell phone and glanced at the few new text messages he had just received. When he put the phone aside and was about to say something, he suddenly heard a slight noise coming from the side. He turned around and saw that Wu Sehun had already taken out the cigarette box.
"If you want to smoke, go outside and smoke."
Unable to help but frown, Chi Jingyuan interrupted him directly: "Didn't you see Seulgi and the others are here?"
A large proportion of men in the Korean Peninsula smoke, and even artists are no exception. There are several members in EXO who like to smoke, such as Kim Jong-in, Do Kyung-soo, and Oh Sehun, who can be said to be heavy smokers. Tao and Luhan, who left the team, were once photographed and caused controversy.
Both roommates are smokers. Chi Jingyuan, who doesn't smoke, actually smokes sometimes. They have argued many times just about whether they can smoke indoors. But in the end, the younger one has the upper hand and made the rule that smoking is not allowed in the room and can only be done on the balcony.
"Didn't Seulgi say it didn't matter last time?"
Wu Sehun had just popped a cigarette out of the box and was stopped before he could take it out. He looked at Kang Seulgi sitting opposite him with a somewhat innocent look.
"Seulgi was just giving you face... and didn't you see Jeongyeon was there too?" Ji Kyung-won said righteously, while sticking out his lips at Yu Jeongyeon sitting opposite him.
Yu Jeongyeon, who was called out, was still a little uncomfortable with the way these 94line members get along with each other, and quickly waved her hands to show that it was okay: "Ah, Oppa, it's okay for me..."
Seeing this, Wu Sehun first smiled gently at Yu Jeongyeon, then proudly raised his eyebrows at Ji Jingyuan, and flicked the cigarette box again in a very proud manner, but in the end he shook it in a cool way, shaking back all the cigarettes that had popped out, and finally put the cigarette box on the table.
Chi Jingyuan, whose good intentions were not rewarded, rolled his eyes, looked helplessly at Yu Dingyan who was smiling awkwardly, shook his head, picked up the glass and poured himself a glass of wine.
"what……"
He poured a glass of soju and took a sip. He felt the slightly spicy liquid entering his mouth, making his whole body feel warm. Chi Jingyuan felt refreshed and stretched his body without hesitation. He looked very tired and groaned, "I'm so tired lately..."
"Is Oppa tired from filming recently?"
Feeling that she had made a mistake in her stance just now, Yu Jeongyeon wanted to make amends and quickly spoke up, asking with concern, "Didn't I see in the news that 'Goblin' won't be aired until December?"
Jiang Seqi also looked over curiously: "Yeah, it's been so long and you're so tired?"
"The show will be aired in December, but the crew plans to shoot enough for six episodes before the show starts... Do you want to drink?"
Chi Jingyuan no longer had the spirit he had in the company before. He asked them a question while holding a small wine glass, and then complained: "So the shooting schedule is still quite tight. The director and the crew are very energetic. They have been working non-stop in recent days. They can shoot for two days and one night without sleeping..."
At this time, the door of the private room was knocked, and several people stopped chatting. The charcoal fire and dishes were pushed in one by one by the waiter.
After all the dishes were neatly arranged and the waiter left, several people began to eat. Wu Se-hun continued with Chi Jingyuan's topic, but his tone was a little unconvincing: "Is it so tiring to work with a beautiful artist like Suzy? There must be kissing scenes in this kind of drama, right?"
But after hearing this, Chi Jingyuan did not answer his question. Instead, he paused for a second, as if he was a little unsure, and asked doubtfully: "Is she beautiful?"
Maybe it’s because they’ve been together for too long and are too familiar with each other, plus there’s a little prejudice in his heart, Chi Jingyuan now always feels that Bae Suzy doesn’t look that good... at least not as good-looking as praised.
Jiang Se-ki looked at Ji Kyung-won strangely and said in a tone of admiration: "Of course Suzy senior is very beautiful, and she is famous in the circle."
This girl probably doesn't know the reason why Ji Jingyuan and Bae Zhuxuan broke up, otherwise she wouldn't speak in this tone...
"Of course she's beautiful..." Wu Sehun also looked over: "You forgot, last time we discussed with Chanyeol and the others, we all thought Suzy was the most beautiful girl in JYP."
"Ah……"
Chi Jingyuan sneered and curled his lips: "This is what you said. I don't agree with the saying of 'the most beautiful girl in JYP'."
"Suzy doesn't even count? Then who do you think is the best-looking in JYP?"
Shaking his head, Chi Jingyuan raised his eyes, as if thinking, and then his eyes drifted to the side, seeing the curious Yu Jeongyeon next to him, he smiled suddenly and said as a matter of course:
"The most beautiful girl in JYP is of course our Yu Jeongyeon."
"Oppa~"
As soon as she felt his gaze, Yu Dingyan felt something was wrong. When she heard his words, her face turned slightly red and she felt a little embarrassed. She looked at Chi Jingyuan with dissatisfaction and complained.
"Ha ha……"
"Be more confident, you are prettier than Bae Suzy! There is no one else here, you should just wear this title with confidence..."
Unable to help but laugh, Ji Jingyuan clenched his fists to cheer for Yu Jeongyeon, encouraging her sincerely, but the girl frowned and kept waving her hands, and she didn't dare to wear the crown of "JYP's No. 1 Beauty".
After laughing, Chi Jingyuan raised his chin towards Yu Dingyan while eating barbecue, his voice still a little vague:
“Don’t be too restrained, look how relaxed they are.
"We met a long time ago because of your sister. In fact, the two of them knew your sister earlier than I did. They were hanging out together before I joined the company. I remember Seulgi and Seungyeonxi even filmed a dance practice video together, right?"
After hearing this, Yu Jeongyeon remembered and her eyes lit up: "Oh yeah, I've seen that video! The trainee next to you is Seulgi."
“Hehe, back then I often practiced with Seungyeon, and we even talked about debuting together…”
Jiang Seul-ki laughed and puffed out her cheeks at Yu Jeongyeon, making Yu Jeongyeon feel that their relationship had suddenly become much closer.
Then Jiang Seqi looked at Ji Jingyuan strangely again: "This video is from a long time ago, right? 11 or 12, have you seen it?"
"I've seen it before. When I'm bored, I like to watch videos online."
Jiang Seulgi's face changed, and she asked with some disgust: "Have you also watched those flattering videos edited by your fans for you? Such videos as "What is the Godly Face of a Boy Band", "The Face Is There", "A Glimpse of a Thousand Years and a Glimpse of a Beauty", "Counting the History of Kpop Is No Match for Him at the Age of 20", which are so disgusting?"
"I have seen it. I can only say that my fans did a good job of editing it, or that I have something for them to edit."
Chi Jingyuan shrugged, not feeling embarrassed at all, but full of confidence: "...How do you know so much? Do you search for me often?"
"Tsk, who is searching for you... I was just following others." Jiang Seqi snorted, hinting at something.
"Jiang Seulgi, you must have a crush on me!"
"Yi~~ Then I might as well have a crush on Sehun..."
The deliberately low-key tone of disdain is irritating to hear.
Hahaha……"
Seeing that Chi Jingyuan was completely blocked, his face froze and he couldn't say a word, the people around him laughed together, especially Yu Dingyan who laughed very happily. She had never seen Chi Jingyuan and his friends joking around with each other, and she felt that the way these friends of the same age got along was very relaxed, which made her a little envious.
The four of them were of similar age and had to work together. Plus, the three of them who were born in 3 were already very familiar with each other, so the atmosphere was very lively.
Among them, Yu Jeongyeon was the youngest. She was originally supposed to act as a waitress, but Chi Jingyuan and the others did not bother her. They grilled the meat by themselves, and each of them used a tongs to poke at the charcoal fire. The crisp sound of the tongs colliding and the sizzling sound of the oil splashing together made it quite lively.
As she stuffed the wrapped barbecue into her mouth and chewed it happily, Jiang Seulgi seemed to remember something and said casually, "Come to think of it, I actually thought that Jingyuan would find Shengwan to work together..."
"I thought so too..."
Wu Se-hun nodded in agreement when he heard this: "I thought he was going to organize a 94line team building."
"..."
Yu Jeongyeon, who had understood a little bit, suddenly felt a little embarrassed when she heard it, but she couldn't ask directly, so she just blinked quickly.
However, Jiang Seulgi soon noticed that what she and Wu Shixun said was a little inappropriate, and immediately explained to Yu Jeongyeon: "It's like this, because I, Jingyuan, Sehun, and Shengwan are all friends of the same age born in 94, so when I heard the news, I had an illusion... But I think Jeongyeon is also quite suitable, she really suits this style."
"Qingjia? Sun Shengwan is the same age as us? How come I didn't know that?"
However, Chi Jingyuan on the other side was surprised after hearing this, as if he had heard this for the first time, and asked in surprise:
“Wasn’t she born in 91?”
