Thinker in the entertainment industry

Zheng Zhiyong never took the initiative to do anything, he didn't think about it, and he couldn't make a decision.Although he couldn't tell if he came to MBC to discuss on the day of the recording of "Radiostar", whether he had any expectations in his heart.Although I understand that seeing An Xiyan doesn't mean anything, people's feelings are not generated because of "what will lead to".

——At least Zheng Zhiyong did not expect that An Xiyan would say goodbye to the colleagues around him at this time, and walk towards him together with the manager.

"Has the recording of "Radiostar" been finished?" Zheng Zhiyong carefully considered his words, "I saw the news."

"The recording is over." After separating from the colleagues who recorded the program together, An Xiyan showed obvious tiredness on her face, and she was obviously more relaxed than before. "I'm tired of talking, so I'll find an excuse to come to you."

Her manager frowned when she heard this, An Xiyan noticed it, and shook her head gently, indicating that it doesn't matter.

"I can now understand what my friend was like when I had an accident half a year ago. I was worried, I couldn't do anything, and I didn't know what to say." In the pocket, while trying to speak in such a way as not to make people feel sad or misunderstood, his posture is rarely restrained because of tension, "I say 'I have something to do', isn't it a bit like Polite nonsense?"

"If I were to answer this question, all I can think of is—'Do you still do jazz?'"

Unexpectedly, An Xiyan would mention this, Zheng Zhiyong didn't realize it for a while: "jazz... I don't plan to sing that kind of music myself."

He felt that his soul seemed to be out of his body, watching the calm and gentle young man with a handsome face from a high place, "As a producer, it is still a good choice to cooperate with you", Zheng Zhiyong Having said that, he even took a step forward and leaned forward slightly, "So I hope you can persevere. Being in love hasn't let you delay anything, whether it's variety shows or music."

"You don't have to be so careful, will I still be hurt because of your words?" An Xiyan raised her hand and made a phone call gesture, "Go back and get in touch."

"it is good."

It's not a problem to stand in a place where people come and go all the time, and the two soon parted ways.Zheng Zhiyong couldn't help recalling every detail just now as he walked. Although he was nervous and careful when he spoke, Zheng Zhiyong could feel that the embarrassment caused by the lack of contact for half a year had disappeared.

An Xiyan's "return to contact" doesn't seem to be a polite phrase.

Zheng Zhiyong was thinking wildly, and at the same time, his feelings were very complicated. The relationship between him and An Xiyan actually showed signs of improvement at this time. Zheng Zhiyong felt that it was absurd, but he couldn't restrain the indistinct joy that rose from the bottom of his heart. feel.

Zheng Zhiyong is not ashamed that emotion and reason often do not go on the same path, but sometimes he still feels helpless.

Fang Jihyuk didn't think as much as Zheng Zhiyong: "You and Hani have a good relationship?"

"We have cooperated several times in the past", Zheng Zhiyong has already thought about how to answer this question, "At that time, we had a common language, but later we were too busy, so the contact faded away."

Who did Zheng Zhiyong collaborate with, what works were released, and what was the response? Fang Jihe knew it all, and he didn’t know what happened in private. With the example of iu, Fang Jihe didn’t have much to say to Zheng Zhiyong think.As a manager, I should pay special attention to the emotional state of the artist, but when I met Zheng Zhiyong, who lacks the awareness of distance between the opposite sex but lacks hormones like an asexual, Fang Jihe has a heart for gossip. It wears off.

Anyway, it's a rapper, and there are only a few who don't fall in love. Even if Zheng Zhiyong likes his little girl because of his face, he knows this fact.As long as Zheng Zhiyong's partner is not very controversial, he will not suffer too much damage.

Back in the car, Fang Jihyuk was still driving. Zheng Zhiyong, who was sitting in the back row, put on his headphones, switched the playlist he was listening to, and pressed play.

On the surface, it's no different from what it used to be.

BTS, seventeen, and monstax are all newly emerging boy groups with very young fan bases. Their purchasing power may not be comparable to those "aunt fans" of the [-]th generation, but they have the largest number of fans in the fan circle and the most active voices.Not every fan of idolrapper can handle hip-hop—in fact, most of them only regard the people they like as idols, but as fans, they always pay attention to the songs sung by their idols. In less than a month, Members of three groups successively sang "Mediocre", and this song is already quite well-known among the new generation in the fan circle.

The big-character posters used by CJ to build momentum arrived as scheduled, along with the part of the data that Loen, who was busy with Melon's annual ranking statistics, released in advance.Zheng Zhiyong's brilliance in the summer of 2015 was so dazzling that he seemed a little quiet in the four months after he got off "Infinite Challenge" and "showmethemoney". Some of his achievements are sleepless, not to mention that he is not exhausted. He did not release his own songs under the name of "thinker". "23", "Unwilling" and "Mediocre" are all excellent works. "Change" is only weaker in comparison.

"23" and "Unwillingness" were sung by iu. The "zeze" incident was temporarily revealed instead of overturned. Qingshu's "Mediocre" has more publicity value, not to mention that it has connotations, the song is actually not bad, but the content is a bit deeper, not easy to understand.

But deep content is not a shame for a song. Zheng Zhiyong looked at the various excavations and praises of the connotation of "Mediocre" in the report, although he knew that what they generally said was correct, "Mediocre" "is a song of comfort, encouragement and encouragement, but his teeth are still a little sore.

The same thing is written, the reporter is not the same kind of creature as him at all, if a Korean drama writer, it is estimated that he belongs to the category of "alien".

"Songs with a good sound source generally meet the tastes of the public, and it is difficult to rely on fans to pick them up, but it is also a success to become a famous song in the eyes of fans, or a famous song in the eyes of people with a certain orientation." Zheng Zhiyong explained cj to aomg people. The significance of promoting "Mediocre" is, "The sound source of "ineedyou" is not very good, but everyone in the fan circle of idols knows that for other idols and junior trainees, this is a famous song. In one case... "Mommae" is also a famous song in the eyes of those who like more 'exciting' songs."

"The company doesn't believe that I will always be loved by the public. The situation of senior mc dream is lamentable because it is not common. It is impossible to hope for a miracle to happen again." Zheng Zhiyong concluded, "It is good to have nationality. It is also very important to have a stable fan base, and it happens that my songs are more targeted and suitable for this route."

A clear positioning is conducive to stand out in the fierce competition. Zheng Zhiyong himself is a very distinctive person, which is very suitable for such a plan.

"It's also a good thing for you to leave such an impression on others," Park Jay said.

"Well, this is the image I want to have." It is a good thing for Zheng Zhiyong to be able to reach an agreement with CJ on this aspect, "My brother understands me best."

"Alas—" Simond covered his cheeks with a look of unbearable expression, "Don't fall in love in front of me."

"Isn't the person who stretches his hand to his colleague's face during the performance also in front of me?" Zheng Zhiyong said, "But... are you really going to "showmethemoney"?"

"Can't you?" Simon asked back, "Zai Fan and Loco have been there, this time it should be me and Gray."

Zheng Zhiyong bit his lower lip. He didn't hesitate for too long. Zheng Zhiyong was stubborn in his ideas, but it had nothing to do with his stubbornness: "In the past, I always disliked your lack of work, but going to "showmethemoney"... I can't bear it anymore .”

After all, Simond is the one who publicly said ""Show Methemoney" came to me but was rejected, and he will never go". People who don’t avoid what they think is the right choice at the moment because of past words” are rare. When Simond becomes a judge and producer, there is another point to diss, which is really tragic for rappers.

After being dissed by Zheng Zhiyong in a roundabout way for more than a year, Zheng Zhiyong suddenly said that Simond was not used to it: "Thinkers don't even say that I am passive and sabotage. It seems that this is really a big sacrifice."

"Yes", Zheng Zhiyong said honestly, "There are so many people who regard 'going back on promises' as a shameful thing".

I heard something wrong with Simond: "Aren't you?"

"I'm afraid of being said to be going back on my word, and I have to give up when I have a good choice. It is even more shameful. Of course, it is very likely that the g that will be overthrown later should not be established casually."

An Xiyan said at the beginning that she should be busy with her career and not in a hurry to fall in love, but now she has been ridiculed a lot when she found out. Although it is not appropriate to be ambiguous in answering love questions when she first became popular, falling in love later on did not delay her at all. Work.

Having said that, knowing that she will overthrow what she has said publicly before, she still chooses to fall in love during the rising period with a busy schedule. For such a relationship, An Xiyan must have high expectations.The fairy queen who was a child became a successful idol many years later, fell in love with the idol he once looked up to, Zheng Zhiyong didn't know what kind of feeling it was, it should be very good?

An Xiyan's attitude towards work has not changed. Zheng Zhiyong believes that she made such a choice because she really likes Kim Junsu and is unwilling to give up the opportunity to fall in love.

Jay Park didn't know anything about Zheng Zhiyong's psychological activities at this time, let alone Simond, "Your logic is applied to me, because you are afraid of being called a compromise by others, ignoring the responsibility of being the president and brother." Responsibility, that's a shame", he raised his chin and squinted at people, and this kind of arrogant posture only lasted until here, "but "showmethemoney" made many people misunderstand hip-hop, and I still think so."

"The people on the show are limited for the sake of excitement and victory, and the subject matter of the show group is limited in order to be able to broadcast", but Zheng Zhiyong doesn't think there is anything to be depressed about. A round of heat, let's promote 'real hip-hop', brother Jishi".

Simond stood up, and threw himself directly to Gray who was smiling and watching on the sofa: "Mountain flower essence——I'm going to "showmethemoney" and this kid is urging me to release a song!"

Zheng Zhiyong is innocent and righteous: "Where am I!"

Gray: "Thinker, you have to know, your brother Simond's composition is not good, you are actually urging me when you urge him."

Zheng Zhiyong: "Is it just composing? Can't you write lyrics for a mixtape?"

The unbearable Simond: "Why don't you come out?"

According to the normal development, Zheng Zhiyong mentioned his new album just in time.But now he has more important things: "We may meet at the audition site of "ShowMetheMoney"."

Simond, whose stamina has not yet passed: "Don't tell me you want to participate in the second competition! I heard that many people from the fourth season will go this season, even cjamm will join in the fun." If the previous ranking is not good I feel dissatisfied and the second entry sounds passable, cjamm is a semi-finalist in the third season, and it feels a bit strange to go to the fifth season.

"Where are you going?" Zheng Zhiyong also knew what Simond said. The west exit that he voluntarily gave up at the beginning also went back on his promise. Zheng Zhiyong was mentally prepared for this, but he was still a little worried, "Now we are talking about a Variety show, if it is finalized, I may go there."

Simond is a person who has appeared on many variety shows. Although he sometimes speaks out loud, his emotional intelligence is definitely not low. Zheng Zhiyong said that he was talking, so he didn't ask the specific situation: "You can talk about it after you decide, why do you want to talk about it now? ?”

"Remind me, when I'm around, brother seems to be easily scared."

simond: ...Hmph!

Before Simon went berserk, Jung Jiyong went to practice the special stage of the Seoul Music Awards with a wink.

Now hip-hop has become an integral part of the Korean music scene, and the Seoul Music Awards ceremony will naturally include hip-hop elements. Tigerjk, Yoon Mirae, bizzy... These old masters Jay Park have been familiar with each other for a long time, they even participated in the 2012 album, thanks to Jay Park, Jay Jung was also very early I got to know them, and even in 2010, I met dok2, who was still not well-known at the time, under the introduction of Park Jae-bum. However, the personality gap was too big, and Zheng Zhiyong was not in a good state at that time. Park Jae-bum introduced him to Zheng Zhiyong was not familiar with almost any of the bunch of talented people he knew.

The so-called practice is almost prepared for people like him, like tigerjk and Yin Meilai and his wife stick together all day, how should they cooperate after thinking about it?Fortunately, this is not such a difficult task. There is no need for harmony and dancing. You come and fight with each other in the aura field between rappers, and you don't need much preparation in advance.

Didn’t Fang Jihyuk say that the company won’t arrange too many performances for Zheng Zhiyong’s image that cannot be deepened and excavated, and where there are too many people staring at him.

After the Seoul Music Awards, he started preparing for the album, but before that he still had plenty of time.

How about watching "Radiostar" aired tonight?Zheng Zhiyong couldn't ask how An Xiyan would answer the question about the relationship, and how the program crew would edit it, but he wanted to know very, very much.

As soon as this idea appeared, Fang Jihe's call came.

"MBC has a program that wants you to appear in it, and the company also wants you to take it."

...Why is my company changing its mind?

The sudden thought in his mind made Zheng Zhiyong embarrassed, he cleared his throat: "What?"

The company's arrangement, if there is no very unbearable place, he has no reason to object, Fang Jihe's words are more like a notice.

"MBC's Spring Festival program", Fang Ki-hyuk said, "'Duet Singing Ballad Festival'".
