Thinker in the entertainment industry

"It ended successfully."

After sending a message to Jay Park, Zheng Zhiyong put the phone back into his pocket, unscrewed the juice he just bought from the convenience store, raised his head and drank half of the bottle in one go.

Huh, refreshed.

"Infinite Challenge" was an unexpected gift package for him. Although cooperating with Zheng Junha is not as popular as working with Liu Zaishi, Zheng Zhiyong still made money, and Zheng Zhiyong is not too unwilling.Whether Park Zhenrong knows how deep his friendship with Park Jay is is also not something Zheng Zhiyong cares about. Even if he doesn't know now, he will know sooner or later. Zheng Zhiyong is not afraid of this, but there is no need to Just to cause trouble for myself and the "Infinite Challenge" program group in one breath.

The current situation is good, and being in the same group with Zheng Junhe is an acceptable result for him. His performance in the show has also won the approval of Kim Tae-ho, Yoo Jae-seok, and Zheng Junhe who knew after the fact.They don't care about who is right and who is wrong in the past. The people who make the show think: If the grievances and hatred between you have not been brought to the surface, don't show it in the show.Otherwise, why would Kim Taeho invite Zheng Zhiyong?He felt that both Zheng Zhiyong and Park Zhenrong would restrain themselves in this regard.

The result is that Zheng Zhiyong did it, but Park Zhenrong did not. Although Park Zhenrong probably did not target Zheng Zhiyong intentionally, it was obvious that he had his eyes on Liu Jae-seok from the beginning and did not intend to back down.Jin Taeho and the others could see it, but it was just because of Park Zhenrong's status that he didn't have an attack. What he thought in his heart was another matter.Zheng Zhiyong doesn't care, let alone care, the only thing that matters to him is that he has nothing to lose after recording this scene.

Isn't that all right?

A good first impression from others is not Zheng Zhiyong's only harvest.Liu Xiyeol, Li Di, and Yin Zhongxin are the three guests who retreated early in the "Masquerade Ball". Among the guests who got off work together, except for Park Zhenrong, everyone's phone numbers have been saved in Zheng Zhiyong's address book—— Sure enough, it is easier for young people to communicate with each other?Zheng Zhiyong couldn't help having such thoughts when he thought that Taiyang and Quan Zhilong, the oldest among the six, were both born in 88.

However, this does not mean that they are familiar with each other, but that "it is fate that we are all invited by the song festival, let's get to know each other". The only exception should be iu, who bluntly said that she is very interested in cooperation. "I will release an album in the second half of the year." The implication could not be more obvious.

"I hope I have time." It's "Infinite Challenge" and "Show Methemoney". Now only the latter has aired an episode. Zheng Zhiyong can't tell what will happen next, "What iuxi wants to do What kind of music is it?" "The style doesn't matter, bad is fine, r&b is fine, hip-hop is fine as long as I don't say rap," IU said, "What I'm interested in is the songs you write Inside, there is always something new, especially in content."

Zheng Zhiyong:?

"I can feel some special attitude." IU added.

Zheng Zhiyong: ...Do you really know everything or what is going on!

"Also, thinkerxi, can we remove the honorifics?"

"I have no objection," Zheng Zhiyong said, "just call me thinker." "You will call me iu, right?"

Zheng Zhiyong nodded: "That's right."

IU became popular with the image of a pure and lovely national sister. Zheng Zhiyong was very surprised by his seriousness and sensitivity to music. All the things during the recording of "Infinite Challenge" can be put aside. Is it even more surprising that a young singer who has nothing to do with him can see the personal attitude that is almost implicitly expressed in his works? "I don't know what it will be like if we cooperate. I don't cooperate with many people, but——I am looking forward to it." These are Zheng Zhiyong's sincere words.

"Me too." Iu said.

No matter how interested, now is not the time to think about these things. "Show Methemoney" and "Infinite Challenge" are both. Even if the recording time can be arranged, Zheng Zhiyong is still inevitably busy.There are still a few days before the producer performance of "showmethemoney", and he needs to finish recording the next issue of "Infinite Challenge" before then. Once the grouping is confirmed, more than half of Zheng Zhiyong's energy will be involved.

"My brother is more hip-hop than me." Zheng Zhiyong said.

Zheng Zhiyong was wearing a light blue short-sleeved shirt, his body was naturally straight, his eyebrows were clear and delicate, and he looked gentle and handsome.Zheng Junhe, who claims to have just started to be interested in hip-hop, is wearing a typical "hip-hop warrior" outfit, with a large white T-shirt and black pants, a black peaked cap, and a long gold chain hanging around his neck. There is only one thing that does not fit the "hip-hop fighter" positioning - people.

The "Infinite Challenge" host team is famous for being a bully, no matter how dressed he is, he doesn't have the "swag" aura that hip-hop players demand.On the contrary, Zheng Zhiyong, who looks gentle and gentle and doesn't care to avoid his own weaknesses, can't easily find a place to repel him in one fell swoop.

"That's because Zhiyong, you don't look like a hip-hop person." Zheng Junhe's expression was a little uneasy, "I've watched the first episode of "Show Methemoney", but you know, there are only a few words in the audition... ...what's your usual rap style?"

"Most of them are similar to the ones in the audition. Speaking out my own thoughts with confidence may make many people feel uncomfortable." Zheng Zhiyong ruthlessly shattered Zheng Junhe's fantasy.But Zheng Junhe didn't give up immediately: "Is there any song that can make everyone high together?"

"There are, relatively speaking, not many." Zheng Zhiyong took out the tablet computer for creation that he carried with him, and handed Zheng Junhe an earphone, and watched with him the things that Zheng Zhiyong had already done. Finished products with registered copyright, "Let's see if you like it?"

"There are a lot of songs." Zheng Junhe said. "Some are semi-finished."

"Wait a minute", Zheng Junhe pointed to one of the folders, and motioned for the camera to follow and shoot, "Enjoy the cool air special? What do you mean?"

"Literally," Zheng Zhiyong said while opening the folder, "some scary songs."

In addition to drinking ginseng chicken soup to "fight poison with poison", Koreans also watch all kinds of chilling horror things in summer, haunted houses, supernatural events and other "horror" themed programs in summer. Got titles like "Enjoying the Coolness Special".Zheng Zhiyong put the "scary" songs into a folder called "Enjoy the Cool Special", which sounds okay.But... the song is terrible?

"A series like this one is called 'In the Name of Love'. They talk about love, but they actually hurt others in order to satisfy their own material and spiritual needs. But there is 'love' as a cover, and they can also get sympathy from the public. Even support." Zheng Zhiyong explained to Zheng Junha, he was smiling, and his pleasant voice was clear and gentle, but the content of what he said was not so gentle.

Zheng Junhe, who is 21 years older than Zheng Zhiyong and a bit stronger, shrinks back silently. "These songs will definitely not be used in "Infinite Challenge"." Seeing Zheng Junha's reaction, Zheng Zhiyong quickly reassured him, "There are positive and negative things in the idea, and the content of the song is also varied. I also have songs with positive content."

Jung Joon-ha: "Now I feel like you are a social critic."

Chung Jun-ha's strong body and young age seem to be of no use to him. In "Infinite Challenge", he has always been bullied. He couldn't even choose an unknown young musician in the song festival. Let him change his style of painting.

This child looks a bit scary...why is my life so miserable...

"Just thinking a little bit more", Zheng Zhiyong began to "clean up" himself, and he was short of engraving the word "wronged" on his forehead. I do not know".

All staff: Of course I know this, but you don't conform to the law of broadcasting like this.

"At first I thought you didn't look like a hip-hop person." Zheng Junhe sighed deeply.Sure enough, everyone who does hip-hop is a bit special. Zheng Zhiyong, who looks like an idol, just said a few more words, which exposed his difficult side.Instead, he looks like a rapper.

"The words of hip-hop can hold a lot of content," Zheng Zhiyong said, "What kind of content do you want it to have?" It’s not that he was asked to do the “Enjoy the Cool Special”, even if he couldn’t make a high song like “Flowering Day and Drinking Land” (2011 West Coast Ballad Festival, Park Myung-soo; & Quan Zhilong), at least it must be “Words of Destiny” (2011 West Coast Ballad Ji, Liu Jae-shik; & Li Di), a song that can arouse broad sympathy.Zheng Junhe prefers hip-hop with a strong and dynamic style like "Flower Day and Wine Land", but Zheng Zhiyong still wants to pour cold water on him: "That way the requirements for rap will be higher, how about my rap?"

The writer on the sidelines has already held up a sign, asking Jung Jun-ha to diss Park Myung-soo who always bullied him in "Infinite Challenge".

"It's not that big of a difference in my age, you always make me think of you as a big brother, but Park Myung-soo always hurts me..." Zheng Junhe read it sternly.It doesn't rhyme at all.

Zheng Zhiyong: I really want to complain, but I am 21 years younger than you, so I have to exercise restraint...

"I really became interested in rap recently," Zheng Zhiyong said with a helpless smile, "Could you try another sentence?" Anyway, Zheng Junhe doesn't expect to write the lyrics himself, as long as he can read them.

Zheng Zhiyong does not have the concept of "rappers must write their own lyrics". In Korea, "rappers" are considered hip-hop players by default. To express their own attitude, the lyrics are naturally to be done by themselves, but Zheng Zhiyong's idea It's not the same: Although rap and lyrics are somewhat related, they are two skills in a strict sense. If they must be tied together, what is a person who speaks rap well but is not good at writing lyrics?

Zheng Zhiyong, who is superb in rap but only second-rate in lyrics, thinks so.

The word he chose for Jung Joon Ha was the middle part of Epikhigh's "born hater".Nowadays, rap songs with better sound sources basically add pop and other elements. The distance from "orthodox hip-hop" is not generally far away, and the representativeness is not so strong. A bunch of dirty words are not suitable for children. Released, the song "bornhater" has a good reputation both in the mainstream and in the underground, and it is widely sung. The theme of "diss those losers who don't know how to do it themselves" can't be put in "Infinite Challenge". That's a violation.

"someofyouuallarebornhaters, men, women, old and young are distributed in all walks of life. No matter what I do, I always respond with natural shallowness. I don't know if I say that is too cruel, it's yournature." Zheng Zhiyong said softly, expressionless. From the face, it looks plain and indifferent, but there is a clear sense of viciousness and irony in the voice.Then he stopped, and at the moment when the corner of his mouth curled up, he turned into a gentle and polite look again: "Can you try this part?"

"someofyouuallarebornhaters..." Zheng Junhe didn't read English very well, but Zheng Zhiyong was very patient, nodding while listening, signaling Zheng Junhe to continue.

"Men, women, old and young are distributed in all walks of life. No matter what I do, I always respond with a natural shallowness. I don't know what I said..."

Insufficient air supply to the lungs.Brother, you should find a place to stop for a breath.Although a little helpless for this "hip-hop lover" who basically can't speak rap, Zheng Zhiyong patiently paused and accented Zheng Junha: "Pause here for a while, like this..."

"There are at most two more recordings, and you will reach a consensus." After the recording of the program this time, Kim Tae-ho said to them, "This period of time can also be practiced."

Zheng Zhiyong is still busy with "showmethemoney". Kim Taeho mainly said these things to Zheng Junha: "Brother's rap needs to be strengthened, thinker can't do both rap and singing alone." Support, there is no other way, if other hosts do this, the evaluation will be affected.

Zheng Zhiyong's task is to improve the tune as soon as possible. "Try the effect earlier." These are the original words of Jin Taihao.

"How do we record next time?" Zheng Zhiyong asked, he was short on time and not very used to variety shows, at least he had to be mentally prepared in advance.

"Karaoke room, you guys go with Huang Guangxi's group," Kim Tae-ho said, "You can order a few raps for Jun Ha, different types."

At the beginning, Zheng Zhiyong moved to Zheng Junhe and tried to improve his rap. Later, Zheng Junhe would also give in, until the two reached a consensus, and the song that had been discussed with the program team earlier came in handy.

Such a script was discussed by the program team and Zheng Zhiyong before filming, and now, its plot is being perfected step by step.
