Peninsula Asteroid

Although the penalty for drunk driving is not very serious, the people of the peninsula hate it very much, and this is not the first time. Even if Kangin will not quit the group this time, there will definitely not be much development in the future. These are all imaginable.

There are too many seniors in the Peninsula entertainment industry who are constantly admonishing their juniors with their own personal experiences. Whether it is SM’s SJ or YG’s Bigbang members, they have set an example for them and personally demonstrated the importance of obeying the law.

But there is no way, the environment and personality are like this, and there are always many people who become new negative examples one after another.

Fortunately, the circle around Chi Jingyuan belongs to a relatively normal type. Although some of the friends in it have disgusting habits such as changing girlfriends every month or riding on several boats, they are still in this aspect. He is relatively well-behaved.

After chatting for a while about the hottest topic within the company recently, Son Seungwan suddenly mentioned EXO: "By the way, your XO will be making a comeback soon, right? It's the super handsome Zhan that I saw in the company last time. The makeup-damaging look…”

Some time ago, Son Seung-wan met Ji Kyung-won and several people in the company who were wearing full makeup because they were filming the "Monster" MV. At that time, she was so stunned by this strong style that she was even slightly envious. Until now They are all mentioned from time to time.

She seemed to have remembered the scene at that time, and her expression was very vivid: "Wow, I really like this battle-damaged makeup look, especially this darker style, it's really cool... When will we Can we also make an album of this style?"

There was longing in her eyes, as if she had imagined what she would look like wearing similar makeup and singing a handsome song...

Jiang Seulqi let go of the straw in her mouth and added with a smile: "I like this style too."

Aren't you on the sweet girl route now? Last year you were still singing non-stop on "Ice Cream Cake"...

Chi Jingyuan looked across at the two relatives who had started having sex and didn't know what to say.

But it’s not impossible. The concept of red velvet’s group is to divide it into two different styles, ‘red’ and ‘velvet’. If red focuses on sweetness and cuteness, it’s not a bad idea for velvet to try a dark style.

It's just that it's hard for Chi Jingyuan to imagine what Pei Zhuhyun's style looks like...

It's even harder to imagine what Son Seung-wan, who has an exaggerated expression and a greasy look in front of him, and Kang Seul-gi, who puffs her cheeks and smiles so innocently that she can't even open her eyes, look like in a dark style.

forget it……

"Well, it's coming soon. It will be officially released on June 9th, a little more than a week away." Wu Shixun nodded and said, "We have been busy preparing these days."

"Oh, I'm really looking forward to it... So how much have you pre-sold this album now? It should be half a million, right?" Jiang Seulgi asked curiously as she poked her head.

EXO has opened the pre-sale channel five days ago. At that time, it was also on the hot search due to the heated discussions among fans. Everyone knew that the sales were very good. However, the company has not yet disclosed specific data. The outside world relied on various The number of channels is a guess.

Jiang Seulqi felt that her prediction should be quite accurate. Although the sales were very good, it was only five days ago...

Wu Shixun glanced at her, then stopped talking when he heard the words. He looked at Chi Jingyuan next to him, pursed his lips, and said somewhat reservedly: "It's almost one million."

After EXO's pre-sale started, the number of pre-orders exceeded 700,000 on the first day. It continued to grow rapidly in the following days. As of yesterday, it was about to exceed one million.

It’s been almost a year since last year’s regular second album, and it’s been more than half a year since Lidong Special, which is considered a very slow comeback frequency in the music industry. During this time, the Ariels really wanted to spend money to buy albums but couldn't find the opportunity. They could only buy some concert CDs, photos, peripherals and the like to support their idols.

But there are also many fans who don’t like to buy peripherals and the like. They only like to move albums. So after such a long time, these fans are already hungry and can’t wait. As soon as the pre-sale is opened, they start to release it without any disguise. own passion.

The highlight of EXO's regular third album this time is the two main songs with completely opposite styles. "Missing" is both lyrical and pop, as well as the high-level arrangement and choreography of "Monster", especially the first attempt at dark-style battle-damaged makeup. The impact can be regarded as the pinnacle makeup look of EXO since their debut.

But if we talk about the planning and the quality of the songs, it is actually not as explosive as last year’s regular second album. It’s just that the quality of last year’s regular second album has not been found in Kpop for several years. Even if SM and Ji Jingyuan are now It’s also difficult to copy…

...However, this kind of quality albums that have been first seen in several years appeared on EXO and Bigbang consecutively last year, creating a wonderful showdown between the two boy groups. 2015 is also regarded by many as the peak year of Kpop. .

Although the quality and planning of the songs are not as good as last year, they are definitely well-produced, and this time there is no continuous foreshadowing of four single albums like last year. It does not distract fans' energy and money, but it is the highlight right from the beginning. It’s the third regular album, so sales won’t be affected too much.

Last year EXO created a miracle with a single album worth one million, and this year it is expected to have another one million pre-sale.

However, one million is no longer something to be excited about for EXO and SM. What makes them most satisfied is the composition of sales.

The current composition of this million is very interesting. More than 300,000 of them are from Xia Kingdom, 500,000 are from the mainland, and the last more than 200,000 are all from overseas, Europe and the United States, and they are still increasing. .

The first two data are normal and not surprising, while the latter is a significant improvement compared to last year. This also proves that the company and EXO are very effective in developing overseas markets...

"It's only been five days since pre-sales and it's already one million? This is just the original version. When the follow-up reissue album comes out, the total will be the same as last year?"

"Omo, this sales figure always seems like we are not in the same world..." Jiang Seulqi found that she was still too conservative.

Their Red Velvet’s last comeback sold 60,000 to 70,000, which is considered to be a first-line achievement among Kpop girl groups, and a considerable part of them were bought by Bae Joo Hyun’s only fans... Bae Joo Hyun through the MC of "Music Bank" and Music Bank CP brought a lot of exposure to red velvet, and also increased a lot of national popularity and attracted a lot of Wei fans.

The girl group's RMB 60,000 to RMB 70,000 is already considered a front-line figure in Kpop, but as for EXO, the statistical unit has changed. What is it, Epop?

"If only we could share one-tenth..." Sun Shengwan started to have sex again, blinking his eyes and starting to fantasize, his face full of happiness: "Wow, I don't dare to think about it, hahaha..."

Obviously they are all in the same circle and profession, but the data of one group are completely disconnected, as if they are not in the same world. It shocks people in the same industry even more than fans.

Because they know best how difficult it will be.

"Let's not talk about this anymore..." Perhaps because he felt that this topic was indeed a bit offensive, Wu Shixun, who was more considerate of his friends' emotions, waved his hand and took the initiative to bring up something else: "What's your current situation with Red Velvet? Do you have any plans for a new album?"

"Yes, the title song has almost been decided." It was quite shocking to be so far away from XO. Kang Seulgi didn't say more, but Oh Sehun mentioned about his group, which made her interested, laughing. Then he started to talk about it: "We all listened to it, the melody is very good and very brainwashing... What do you think this song is about?"

"What? Chocolate cake?" Chi Jingyuan replied casually.

"Ah Ni, what..." gave him a dissatisfied look, Jiang Seqi came over and said mysteriously: "It's about random killings!"

"Mo? Real or fake?"

"Of course, let me tell you..."

Listening to the two people next to them who were enthusiastically giving Wu Shixun science knowledge, Chi Jingyuan was drinking his drink in a lack of interest and was not listening very seriously.

Because he had heard their captain say it before...

After chatting for a while, everyone’s drinks were empty and they were about to leave. Wu Shixun thought of something again and looked at Chi Jingyuan and asked: “By the way, you and Kyung Soo will attend together in two days. Baixiang, right? You all seem to have been selected for the Popularity Award?"

As soon as he said this, several people's attention turned.

"We are participating together." Chi Jingyuan nodded: "But we are not sitting together, and the awards are not in the same category. He is in the film category, the crew of "Innocent Love", and I am in the TV category, the crew of "Signal"."

"You're really cunning... I know I can't beat you if I get the same award as you." Wu Shixun had some dark speculations. His acting career suffered some setbacks in last year's "My Neighbor is EXO". At that time, he was already lagging behind a lot among EXO members.

"I really won't win the popularity award this time." Chi Jingyuan shook his head and after taking the last sip of the drink, there was a crisp sound of air in the straw.

"Shuang Song CP is indeed very powerful, but the popularity award is not important. Jingyuan, you were also selected for the best actor, and there seems to be a best fashion award..." Looking at Chi Jingyuan, he seemed to be not very interested. At this time, Sun Shengwan quickly spoke out to encourage him: "Are you confident?"

Chi Jingyuan looked at him strangely: "Do you understand him so well?"

Even if you know the candidates for the Popularity Award and Best Actor, you even know that I have a spot for the Best Fashion Award... Are you my fan?

"We are close friends, so of course I pay attention to your awards!" Sun Shengwan looked at him with a matter-of-fact expression and blinked at him, as if he was begging for praise: "I know every one of your awards and the list of nominees. I followed it the first day it came out, and I often vote for you for the Popularity Award!"

"Jingyuan, don't listen to her bragging." Jiang Seulgi immediately exposed her with a smile: "Actually, it was all Joohyun Unnie said when we chatted some time ago. What she said...we all heard it from her. .”

"oh……"

Hearing this, Chi Jingyuan nodded clearly, feeling a little strange in his heart.

Then he smiled and looked at the two people in front of him, Sun Shengwan, who was dissatisfied with Jiang Seulqi after being exposed. After Jiang Seulqi surrendered and begged for mercy, the two people returned to normal, he shook his head: "I don't have any confidence, it should be It’s very difficult.”

He didn't seem very energetic and didn't seem very interested in the award.

Seeing Chi Jingyuan's appearance, Jiang Seulqi and Son Seungwan quickly comforted each other. They sang along with each other and encouraged each other:

"Oh, being nominated is really awesome! Do you think any idol actor can be nominated for The Emperor now? And Jingyuan, you have already been nominated twice."

"That is, if I can film a movie and be selected as the best actress, I don't know how happy I will be."

“The show is so popular, awards don’t really matter!”

"Exactly……"

"You two are still comforting him. Do you know how high the script you sent him can be stacked on the table?"

"..."

Listening to the unstoppable voice in his ears, Chi Jingyuan looked at the expressions of several relatives, blinked, and couldn't help but laugh:

"Too."

…………

"Can you open it and read it now?"

Chi Jingyuan took the card with the name of the winner from the on-site PD, looked down at it, then looked at the PD and made a joke.

At the moment, he is backstage at the Peace Hall of Kyung Hee University, which is also the backstage of the 52nd Baeksang Arts Awards.

Today is June 3rd, which is also the day of Baeksang. Ji Kyung-won, who has been waiting for several days, got up early in the morning with Do Kyung-soo, who was also going to participate. They did styling, makeup, and awards rehearsals. Afternoon tea party, and the red carpet before the show.

Although there is no stage, as a presenter, you still need to rehearse the process.

During the red carpet, Ji Kyung-won walked with Jo Jin-woong and Kim Hye-soo. The appearance of the "Signal" trio caused extremely enthusiastic screams, and many Aili who came to the scene also gave very enthusiastic support. , showing a superior popularity.

But the highlight of the red carpet was not them, but Song Joong Ki and Song Hye Kyo, who appeared last. The two people got out of the same car holding hands. Of course, the scene reached a climax. When taking pictures, they got close to each other and hugged each other. The waist is full of CP, far from being comparable to the lovelines in TV shows, and makes everyone very satisfied.

Even Chi Jingyuan couldn't help but sigh when he heard the cheers. Real CP like the 'Queen Mother' CP is indeed the king of the times.

After walking on the red carpet, Chi Jingyuan did not go directly to the hall to take a seat and wait for the live broadcast to begin. Instead, he came to the backstage first, because the first award to be awarded at the beginning of the party was this year's best new actor and actress, and As last year's Best New Actor, he will serve as the award guest.

At this time, he was sitting on the sofa in the lounge. His crisp black suit fit perfectly. His neat and exquisite short hair was styled in a completely different style from that on the stage. His more natural and light makeup also showed the same look as most The actor’s skin looks different.

"As for Jingyuan Xi, it's okay if you want to take a look." PD was also very interesting. Hearing his words, he was stunned for a moment, and then he immediately smiled and stretched out his hand to signal him to open it.

Chi Jingyuan also laughed, shook his head, put the small card in his hand and held it tightly: "Forget it, let's leave it in suspense."

After the joke, the PD briefly talked to them about the things to do on stage later, but they had rehearsed before and didn’t say much. After chatting for a few words, he went to the side to explain other things to the executive.

At this time, Gao Woxing, who was sitting next to him and wearing a formal dress, looked at him and asked with a smile: "Whose name does Jing Yuanxi think it will be written in it?"

Gaowo Xing is his co-star for the Best New Actress. She was also the Best New Actress last year. She is a younger generation of actresses born in 1992. She has starred in many movies and TV series. She belongs to both movies and TV series. Representative works include "Snowpiercer" and the daughter of the protagonist in the classic film "Han River Monster" directed by Bong Joon Ho.

In the past few years, I have collaborated with the great director Bong Joon-ho many times and developed very well. I also signed a contract with a Hollywood agency and planned to take an international route.

But things seem to be going wrong in the past two years since then. I haven’t acted in many big-budget movies, and I haven’t received very good TV drama roles. Two days ago, it was announced that I would star in the Neon TV series "Midnight Diner Fourth". season".

However, Gowo Star made his debut in the TV series "Sad Love Song" in 2005, and only won the Best Newcomer in the TV category in 2015. Baeksang's review mechanism is really interesting.

Chi Jingyuan turned his head, glanced at her, and then looked at the small card in his hand. After thinking about it, he smiled and said: "Ryu Junyeol or Yook Sungjae, I guess it should be Liu Junyeol."

"Reply 1988" has three people selected for Best New Actor. It would be unreasonable not to award it to them, and Ryu Junyeol is relatively the most outstanding one.

However, he always felt that Gao Wo Xing looked a bit like a certain female idol he had seen, but he couldn't remember who it was for the moment.

"What about the actress?" Gaowei Xing blinked and continued to answer.

"Then I can't guess..." Chi Jingyuan squinted his eyes and said, "The PD just happens to be away. Why don't you, senior, take it apart secretly and take a look?"

"Haha..." Gaowei Xing covered his mouth and laughed.

While chatting casually, Chi Jingyuan looked at the large-screen monitor in front of him. At this time, the live broadcast had already begun. After the two gagmen Yin Zhengxiu and Jin Shu came on stage to make an opening to liven up the atmosphere, the two real hosts People have also stepped onto the stage. The male MC is the host Evergreen Shin Dongye, and his eyes are locked on the female MC next to him.

Coincidentally, the female MC tonight happens to be Bae Suzy.
