Thinker in the entertainment industry

Some words can only be thought about in my heart, and words that are said will hurt my feelings very much.For example, why does Lee Joon get the most resources in the group, is it because the company has a preference for him, or is it because other members are far behind Lee Joon in terms of "side jobs".For example, in the matter of Lee Joon not renewing his contract, how much role did the old discord and conflicts with the company play?

Even Lee Joon, known for his simplicity, understood this, so he didn't say any more.

"I think the same thing." At this time, Tiandong opened his mouth to smooth things over, but he was still on Li Zhun's side, "After making sure that Brother Zhun won't stay, I... lost confidence, right? My popularity It’s not that good, the strength is also considered the worst in the group, I know this, even if it’s like this, I will daydream, thinking about changing the environment, will it be better.”

No one answered.

Zheng Zhiyong's eyelashes twitched, as if he had detected the embarrassment and even the cause of the conflict between the mq team.The expression on his face remained unchanged, and he sighed inwardly.

When friendship and interests are too deeply involved, it is very difficult to deal with it. MQ is like this, and he was no exception back then.

"Although I knew early on that it would be difficult to stay, but sometimes, I would have some delusions uncontrollably." In the end, Yang Shenghao, the captain and eldest brother, spoke first, and he patted Li next to him. Zhun's shoulder, and said with a wry smile, "Even if you know, even if he stays, it's unlikely that there will be a turnaround."

"It's better to say it out, selfishness, more than one person has it." Yang Shenghao finally said this.

Li Zhun clasped his hands and put them in front of his chin. Like Zheng Zhiyong, he supported the table with his elbows.He was silent for a moment, and then smiled: "It's sensational, brother Shenghao, didn't you change?"

"You're leaving, why don't you let me watch something new?" Yang Shenghao leaned back in his chair, and part of the mafia boss' aura returned.

"Why didn't you do this earlier in the variety show?" Li Zhun seemed to read the meaning of "Hey, you dare to rebel" in Yang Shenghao's eyes, and took the first step, "Let you see me and you. look".

Zheng Zhiyong changed his posture, holding his chin in his hand and laughing so wildly, Yang Shenghao was choked up by Li Zhun, and seeing Zheng Zhiyong like this again, let's just take him under the knife: "How do you feel now? ?”

They said so much to Zheng Zhiyong, a work partner, not because they wanted to treat Zheng Zhiyong as a psychiatrist, but because they wanted to use a good song as a commemoration of their end-this kind of thinking is very important for the five-year debut My MQ is really a second class, but when two of five people go together, there is more than one person who shares weal and woe, and it feels much better, except for the occasional upset.

"I remembered some things about myself. The details involved others. I can't say it, but there are some commonalities, which are very clear."

"What?" Mir asked.

"It's not that good, and it's not that bad." Zheng Zhiyong said, "Your relationship is like a relatively close colleague, or a friend who is not close to the heart. Of course, this is not very important. The point is that you are thinking about interests. Relationships, and feelings on the other side,” he concludes.

"Then?" Li Zhun narrowed his fox eyes.

"Then like I said just now, it's not that good, and it's not that bad." Zheng Zhiyong lowered his arms, lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, and said, "After a long, long time, you may gradually become estranged, don't stare at me. Will a friend be like a day for decades? The friends of your childhood are still in good relationship now? Well, I will continue to say that even if you may not be in touch or even want to be in touch later, it is not necessarily abnormal. However, compared to the normal gradual estrangement because of not doing things together or thinking differently, leaving regrets because of some things that are not so important when I think about it later, it seems... unnecessary".

"So?" Zheng Zhiyong's persuasive words were not very pleasant, but no one let them show their emotions at this time. The person who asked the question was Tiandong, who had the most unpredictable facial expression in MQ, Zheng Zhi Yong couldn't tell anymore.

Zheng Zhiyong subconsciously pursed his lower lip, his body leaned back, his eyes shook slightly, "Okay", he sighed softly, and smiled wryly, "As someone who has experienced it, from my From personal experience, the end itself is not a very sad thing, but at that time I was too concerned about the chance of debut, and I did some things..." He pointed to his temple, "I'm still thinking, I Is it a mistake, or is it justifiable?"

"It sounds a bit miserable." Go laughed.

"Did it make you happy?"

"Yue Yue, I don't know what's going on at all." Li Zhun said angrily.

"Now you can be more specific, how do you want to write the song?" Yang Shenghao added.

"Hmm...how about the theme of a peaceful breakup?"

mq: ...you are looking for death!

In fact, Zheng Zhiyong is very grateful to mq. The long talk under the catalysis of alcohol that night brought him a lot of inspiration. The source of inspiration is mainly the story of mq, and his own thoughts and feelings only take up a small part. part.This is a very meaningful and pioneering event. Zheng Zhiyong's underground stage name "thinker" is because there are many personal and unique ideas in his lyrics, but Zheng Zhiyong found that when he was writing songs, Some rely too much on squeezing themselves.

As a person with rich emotions and deep thoughts, Zheng Zhiyong should adapt to this method, but Zheng Zhiyong is not sure how long he can last like this, so he has been hesitating about concentrating on creating.Of course, this is not the only reason, nor is it the root cause.The fundamental reason is that he is no longer the Zheng Zhiyong who knew nothing about singing and dancing and went to be a trainee with a face.

All in all, it is a good new way to get inspiration from other people's stories. If you resonate with yourself, you will be inspired like Zheng Zhiyong—but there are still some technical problems in the actual operation.

"Actually, I don't really like writing songs for the group. The part allocation of the songs has always given me a headache." The next day, Zheng Zhiyong sat in the studio, racking his brains on the lyrics on the paper, "especially this song There's not much rap in the song."

"If you have rap, just give it to mir, and I'll sing it. If you really don't have it... I will trouble you." Tian Dong said.

Zheng Zhiyong turned his head and glanced at Tiandong: "You sing?"

Mir burst out laughing with a "poof", but Tian Dong's face froze: "What?"

Although no matter how you look at the expression on his face, it has nothing to do with being "angry", but Zheng Zhiyong always feels that he is not looking at people, but looking at the target in "Idol Games".

Speaking of which, Tiandong, who is famous for his cool and calm expression and superb archery level in the archery segment of the Idol Games, may not have the chance to appear in the Idol Games again after quitting the group.

Zheng Zhiyong lost his mind, came back and hurriedly explained: "The difficulty can still be digested. You have heard the general framework. It's not about showing off skills, but mainly because of the difficulty in timbre."

Tiandong: Why do I still feel something is wrong?

Mir helped him answer: "It means that brother can also digest the relatively simple part."

Just as Mir seized the time to complain about his brother, Zheng Zhiyong stretched out his hands and clapped his hands: "I want to add 'ohyeah' at the beginning, who will come?"

Tiandong immediately raised his hand, "I", MQ's facade classmate is thick-skinned, "This is not difficult".

Zheng Zhiyong's face was full of black lines: "It's okay, your timbres are similar, and you don't count as scratching your ears as soon as you come out."

Truth Emperor Tiandong: "...is that compared with your tone?"

Zheng Zhiyong laughed dryly twice, acquiescing to Tiandong's words.

At this time, mq has already started rehearsing for the concert at the end of the year, which is likely to be their last concert in the form of a five-member group. It takes time to get familiar with the songs, and stage rehearsals are essential. After all, it's the last time, and they don't want to leave any regrets.One of the consequences is that it is difficult to see the scene of a bunch of people crowded in the studio, because everyone's practice progress is different now, and Zheng Zhiyong's test results have become one by one. Fortunately, mq is not with Sound combination, generally speaking, has little effect.

"But why do you want to add such a sound?" Tian Dong also learned to create, "It doesn't feel necessary, it's a bit abrupt."

"You'll know when the time comes." Zheng Zhiyong said with a smile.

after an hour.

"Tell me if we really love each other that much, tell me whether our love will always exist, whywhywhywhywhy, why the result is still separated."

Lee Joon finished singing his part: "Who is next?"

Zheng Zhiyong pointed to Yang Shenghao next to him.

"Please don't cry, don't be covered with tears. Please don'tstay, spread your wings and fly high. Parting is for more happiness, this is what I should understand."

"I think there's something wrong," Yang Shenghao asked Li Zhun for advice after singing, "but I can't tell."

Li Zhun: "Is there?"

Yang Shenghao closed his mouth in resentment, Li Zhun was so slow that he couldn't see what he didn't find out, and asking him was tantamount to asking for nothing.

"You don't know, it's not that I don't want you to go. It's better to break up peacefully than to struggle together and become a resentful couple. Say goodbye like a man. No matter how painful it is, you must be firm."

Go finished singing: "Is this the chorus part? I also feel something is wrong."

After him, Tiandong, who sang the "ohyeah" at the beginning, ran over and sang the second verse: "The future is like a monalisa, giving you a mysterious smile, you are too ignorant to be easily moved and impulsive. The flowers are withering. This is the cold winter." , will not thaw until the new year."

Tiandong was not so straightforward when he was not making up the knife, he just said: "Call me over when mir sings."

When it was the mir's turn, all the members came except Lee Joon - Lee Joon had some personal business to do temporarily.Mir, who usually works as a rapper and only sings when he is dying, looked at his words with great pressure: "Forget about melancholy, life is a war, we face our own dangers, and we go our separate ways. Do you understand these, there is no escape I just have to accept it—”

"I understand!" Mir suddenly realized, raised his head and asked his brothers, "Can you see what is hidden in the lyrics?"

Sitting on the sofa, Tiandong nodded with a smile: "The front is fine, but the back is more obvious."

"Because the titles of our songs are not so popular anymore." go also figured it out.

Yang Shenghao's emphasis is a bit different from his members'. The old man is criticizing: "Why is there no "smokygirl"?"

"This song title is too difficult to add", that's right, what Zheng Zhiyong is doing is to integrate the titles of MQ's previous hit songs into the lyrics of the song "youdon'tkonw", like "ohyeah" and "y" , "cry", "stay", and "like a man" are all easy to handle, "monalisa" and "it's a war" are more difficult, but Zheng Zhiyong finally added them in, as for the "smokygirl" released by mq in 2013... …Zheng Zhiyong said that he had to think again, "By the way, why do you focus on the lyrics, why don't you care about my songs".

"We already know that your music is well written." Yang Shenghao said.

Zheng Zhiyong helped his forehead: "Okay, how about it, is it okay?"

"Very good", Yang Shenghao said, his lips pursed slightly, looking at Zheng Zhiyong with his bright and focused eyes, "Thank you".

Zheng Zhiyong: ...Yang Shenghao is not used to the domineering style anymore. "Thank you so much, please help me think about how to add "smokygirl" into it, who came up with the name, it's so troublesome."

"It's really hard to add, so don't force it. If it doesn't work, we will add it secretly when we sing live." Go said.

"Or just like you add 'ohyeah' at the beginning, you can also add 'smokygirl' in the middle of the background sound." Tiandong added.

Zheng Zhiyong swept the faces of these two MQ "creative directors" with suspicious eyes: "Aren't you too lazy to think about lyrics?"

"Yes." Go and Tiandong were very honest.

Zheng Zhiyong: ...

Li Zhun later heard from his teammates what Zheng Zhiyong did in the lyrics. He read the full version of the lyrics several times: "Where is smokygirl?"

Zheng Zhiyong was a little speechless. Thinking of the person in front of him who seemed to be suffering from severe obsessive-compulsive disorder, he immediately decided to kick the ball back: "I can't think of where to add this sentence, can you help me think about it?"

"One more thing, in your lyrics, 'you' refers to me or fans."

Hey, brother, your way of changing the subject is very blunt, you know that?

Zheng Zhiyong showed a very "official" smile: "It's just lyrics."

Li Zhun: ... "Okay", he decided to admit defeat, "Your lyrics are good", seeing that Zheng Zhiyong didn't speak, he scratched his head, and added, "The song is also good".

Zheng Zhiyong: ...I now believe that it is true that Lee Joon is not very good at speaking, but his sense of entertainment is acquired.

"Unfortunately, even if it's a good song, I'm afraid I can sing it live once." Li Zhun was talking about their farewell concert.

"Maybe we can get together again if we have a chance, God is not all reorganized." Zheng Zhiyong said.

Hearing this, Li Zhun just smiled: "They can become a memory of an era, I'm afraid we can't do it, it's good now, at least... I have tried my best to make regrets as few as possible. I just came out that night, and I was still I wondered if there was something wrong with my brain, and I used this form for a song, now that I think about it, my intuition is quite useful.”

"Our ideas are similar", Zheng Zhiyong said, "When I create with others, I don't communicate much at the ideological level, I can't express it, and I don't know what's wrong this time."

"There is always a first time in everything?" Li Zhun tried to make an evaluation, "But this time it seems that we have taken advantage of it. Your song is already good, but after the modification, it just becomes more to our liking."

"No, no, I was very happy writing it myself, except that adding the title of the song gave me a bit of a headache." Zheng Zhiyong said with a smile.

Strictly speaking, Jung Jiyong was introduced by Yoon Doojoon to Lee Joon, and Lee Joon introduced him to MQ and the agency, but because the atmosphere was really bad at the beginning and Jung Jiyong didn't intend to mix it up, the communication between him and Lee Joon was not clear. Not much, and now I have said a little more.

However, the absence of embarrassment is not entirely a good thing. For example, Lee Joon has less worries now, and the curiosity that was temporarily suppressed because of the members' "ridicule" came up. After weighing the IQ and vision of both parties, Lee Joon decided I gave up the roundabout way and asked directly: "I don't know much about music, but I can feel that your creative level is very good. Do you plan to become a professional composer in the future?"

"I don't know", Zheng Zhiyong doesn't really want to talk about this issue, but he and Li Zhun are not familiar with each other after all, so we should pay attention to what we say, "I don't know how long my enthusiasm can last, and I don't know how long my level can be maintained. How long, so it’s good to be an amateur first.”

Lee Joon, who didn't ask any questions, could only lament Zheng Jiyong's ease: "Besides being a singer, this is the first time I've seen someone who can treat music production as a part-time job."

This kind of sigh Zheng Zhiyong has heard quite a few times in the cube. At this moment, he used the lines he used before very skillfully: "There are too many things in this field that I am not sure about. If possible, take a step forward." Let's take a step."

"correct."

"Ok?"

"What I said that night, don't tell the Cube people, okay?"

"This..." Facing Zheng Zhiyong's smile, Li Zhun fell into a sluggish state again.

Did he see that I was making inquiries for Yoon Doojoon?
