Thinker in the entertainment industry

When the topic was pulled back, it was no longer "what was the reason for breaking contact after the car accident", but "why I have avoided seeing each other for so many years".

"It's been so many years." After picking things, the two found an open-air bar to sit down, and the shopping results were placed on the middle table. "It doesn't make much difference if it's earlier or later."

"I'm going to be an artist again, whether it's a singer, or active as a rapper or producer, we will meet sooner or later." Lee Taemin said firmly.

Jung Jiyong: "The problem is about this matter, I have been unable to make up my mind, Taemin, during those eight years, my brother, I became a serious procrastinator. The result of writing songs for others at the beginning It’s not good, rap is always dissed in the underground, and the negative influence of the past is also there. Can I really still do this business? There are doubts.”

"Is it better after "Tears"?"

"'Tears' was a turning point," Zheng Zhiyong admitted, "It was my first song that received a good response, because that song became familiar with exid, and Hanixi gave me a suggestion."

"What is it?"

"Participating in "showmethemoney", people like me sometimes need to be pushed by others," Zheng Zhiyong mercilessly said to himself, "It's like when I didn't meet Jae Bum, what I had to do I did, but after he took me to rap and stuff like that, I really started to pick myself up."

"It's not a good change", Lee Taemin said, "Brother was not like this in the past".Zheng Zhiyong was a very proactive person in the past, and he can't say how lazy he has become now, but he has tried a lot of things and reached the psychological bottom line without causing harm to others. When I hosted "Battle Idol", I felt that my performance was good enough for the show and there was nothing to look forward to, so I didn't continue to delve into hosting.

"Certification", Zheng Zhiyong said, "changes can't always be good."

The level of positivity has dropped significantly, which is completely in line with Lee Taemin's evaluation.

"That's right," Li Taemin didn't show any emotions like "helplessness" or "hate that iron can't be made into steel", "Actually... I just found out what happened to my brother at that time. Cut off contact for so many years."

"Can't it be to go back and continue your studies?" Zheng Zhiyong joked.In South Korea, a country that values ​​Chinese diplomas, trainees and even artists drop out midway. Many of them fail to see hope in this industry and go back to study hard.

Li Taemin looked at him with "Are you stupid" eyes: "Brother said, your family has no objection to you being a trainee, and they don't have high expectations for your studies."

A drop of cold sweat appeared on Zheng Zhiyong's forehead.

"And the academic problem, brother will not tell me."

"This... is also", Zheng Zhiyong had a smile that was almost equal to "kindness", "In that case, I had an accident, and there is no possibility of being an idol, you have thought about it too, Taemin ".

"I thought about it for a moment, but it was not easy to accept when I heard it. If I can go back, I hope to avoid this incident." Li Taemin said.

"Even if I might take away your place in shinee?" Zheng Zhiyong joked again, the level of liveliness can be compared with that in SM, "By the way, also, I came into contact with hip-hop I've had a pretty good time since creating and creating, and it's a bit difficult to choose between them and dancing—"

Li Taemin covered his face, and couldn't bear to look directly at Zheng Zhiyong's tricks: "Then...then I'll go back and tell my brother, practice rap creation for a few more years, and when there is "showmethemoney", you will be the one who will become the all-round idol rampant music source list Time. In sm, you will limit your creative themes, so don’t compete with me for the spot of Shinee.”

"Hahahahaha..."

Li Taemin's explosive sense of entertainment directly caused Zheng Zhiyong to fall on the table with a smile, and tears were about to flow: "The perfect rebirth novel theme, I don't know if anyone is willing to write hahahahahahaha..."

"Brother..." Li Taimin's smile was helpless and kind of indulgent.Zheng Zhiyong didn't want to complain and sell misery in front of him, how could he really think that Zheng Zhiyong was "a blessing in disguise"?

At best, it can only be said to be "lucky in misfortune".

After Zheng Zhiyong laughed enough, he also used the phrase "lucky in misfortune": "My luck was very bad when something like that happened, but I was able to discover new talents later and meet you again as a colleague. It can be counted as a kind of luck."

At the end of the canal tour, Zheng Zhiyong raised his glass.In the wine glass is a cocktail called "Angel's Kiss". The bottom layer is cocoa liqueur, topped with whipped cream, and on top of the cream there is a red cherry strung together with a cocktail needle, as if shot by Cupid's arrow In fact, this cocktail has the meaning of "the god of love conveys his thoughts to those who miss him day and night", which is considered a move to consider the effect of the program.In addition, this wine also looks more like a drink, which is more suitable than drinking hard liquor in front of the camera to get drunk.

"Cheers to this luck."

"Cheers to us being friends again."

After clinking glasses intimately and tacitly, the sweet wine flowed down the esophagus, leaving behind a slightly spicy trace. In the shadow of the lights under the night sky, warm and somewhat complicated eyes intertwined. Beside them, the flowing water of the canal And pass.

Only less than two days later, Zheng Zhiyong saw the program group of "Flower Boy Bromance" again, at the recording site of "Music Bank" in the new kbs hall.

"Are you resting well?"

Zheng Zhiyong said with a dull face: "Not bad."

"Among those who seldom fly around the earth, Jiyong's ability to adjust to jet lag is already pretty good," said Lee Taemin, who shares a waiting room with Jung Jiyong.

Zheng Zhiyong raised his forehead and let out a long sigh. The "Flower Boy Bromance" program team wanted to save on accommodation costs. Zheng Zhiyong had to go to Italy a little later. After filming the show, he flew back to record the mid-year special of "Music Bank".

"Are you okay?" he asked Li Taemin.

Li Taemin spread his hands: "I'm used to it." Not only was he alive and kicking, but Li Taemin also took the time to dye his hair when he came back.

Zheng Zhiyong was even more distressed immediately: "Okay... come on, Taemin."

"what happened?"

"Think of a way to make me more energetic, and I'm going to rehearsal soon." Zheng Zhiyong said jokingly, while his eyelids were getting heavier and heavier, and his upper and lower eyelashes were about to meet.

So Lee Taemin had to find a way to create an entertainment effect, "Ah, what can I do, let me think about it", he was very worried, and his expression was a typical hidden evil intention.

How to make it worse?

At this time, the door of the waiting room was knocked, and Li Taemin turned around and called "Come in", and saw that the person who came in was Hani from exid, An Xiyan.

He came to find Zheng Zhiyong, this idea flashed through his mind, and what remained was the inspiration for making the show.

"Brother." Li Taimin lifted Zheng Zhiyong's chin up with his fingers.

Zheng Zhiyong is not the heroine of the little white flower. No matter how domineering the president is, Li Taemin's actions are just an ordinary joke to him. It was Lee Taemin's rapidly enlarged face.

This is very scary, "Hey!!!" Zheng Zhiyong's voice reached a rare height, adrenaline burst out, his hands were firmly pressed against Li Taimin's shoulders, his legs were bent at the same time, and his center of gravity moved down. Just flipped off the chair.

But because Li Taemin is not the person involved, he only cares more about his physical condition than Zheng Zhiyong. Seeing Zheng Zhiyong's actions reached the "intense" level, Li Taemin decisively stopped, supported his shoulders, and started "Laugh": "Brother, are you energetic now?"

"You did it on purpose..." After the explosion, there was collapse, and Zheng Zhiyong slowly slid down from the chair. Li Taimin knew that this was also a variety show effect, so he just supported Zheng Zhiyong's arm with his hand, but did not continue to stop it.

"The effect seems to be very good," Lee Taemin said with satisfaction, at this time he explained to Ahn Hee Yeon who was watching, "We are recording a program, "Flower Boy Bromance"".

An Xiyan: "Should I avoid it?"

"No, please feel free." Li Taemin said.

"Then...you continue?"

Describe An Xiyan at this time in one sentence—you can put a piece of melon in her hand later.

Standard onlooker posture.

"It's ok, Taemin, I'm fully awake", Zheng Zhiyong was deeply concerned about the fact that he didn't open his eyes to see the situation when someone came in due to the effect of the program, so that he lost such a big face in front of An Xiyan Feeling regret and fear, "like mint planted in my head".

Li Taemin made a victory gesture to the camera lens: plan to pass. "This trick works for my brother, I will write it down."

Zheng Zhiyong turned his head to look at An Xiyan, and smiled helplessly at her after meeting his eyes.

It's just a coincidence, the person who came in was An Xiyan, I was so scared, Li Taemin, you are overthinking.

It's nothing special that An Xiyan came to see Zheng Zhiyong.She and Zheng Zhiyong both have a special stage in "Music Bank" today, and they are good friends on the surface, so it's normal to come to visit.She thought that Zheng Zhiyong hadn't officially appeared on a singing show. The last time she came to "Music Bank" was a year ago when she was a amateur and gave Zhang Xiansheng a feat. Is it going well in the backstage of the song show, which pays more attention to seniority, but I didn't expect Zheng Zhiyong to come here alone, or to act with his partner gfriend this time. He bound Li Taemin, a young senior , and the "Flower Boy Bromance" program group.

When contacting privately before, Zheng Zhiyong mentioned that he was going to record "Flower Boy Bromance", but An Xiyan didn't ask in detail. In the limited communication they carefully grasped, it was impossible to cover what they each did and what to do of all things.

The result is what it is now. It is interesting to watch it, and it is real to be shocked.

But when Zheng Zhiyong cast his eyes on her with "don't worry" written in his eyes, An Xiyan's anxiety melted away like ice and snow.

"When is the rehearsal for your special stage?" Zheng Zhiyong said, "If there is no conflict, I really want to see it, "Troublemaker", I wonder if I can do it." The choreography of "Troublemaker" is known for its bold but not obscene intimacy, which is its biggest attraction and also its biggest difficulty.

Lee Taemin clearly remembered that he was recording "Flower Boy Bromance": "Brother, today your time is mine."

"Come on, you, aren't you on the solo stage?"

There must be a limit to show affection, less is the effect of the show, more is deliberately selling corruption, Zheng Zhiyong found a reason for himself: "Thank you for cheering me up, I'm going to rehearsal."

"Thanks for your hard work." Zheng Zhiyong's hand had already touched the doorknob, and he withdrew it again, saying hello to the camera of "Flower Boy Bromance", "Take a break, when it's time to shoot, I will actively contacted."

Saying goodbye to the program group temporarily, Zheng Zhiyong and An Xiyan left the waiting room together.

"I only told Taemin that you suggested that I go to "showmethemoney"." After leaving the house, Jung Jiyong said to Ahn Hee Yeon, "Only this."

"He's inside..." An Xiyan immediately understood what Zheng Zhiyong meant.

"Coincidence." Li Taemin didn't think about how Zheng Zhiyong would behave in front of the girl he liked, as long as the person who came in was not a senior or the leader of "Music Bank", he would do that.

An Xiyan's doubts and discomfort completely dissipated: "I don't know about your relationship." What a close friend they are, and how much privacy can be exchanged. Of course, from An Xiyan's standpoint, she doesn't want Zheng Zhiyong to like herself And the fact that I didn't directly reject it was known by more people.

"When it comes to other people's secrets, even if they are close people, I usually don't take the initiative to tell them. But if someone very close or someone who can't hide it finds out, I can't tell a lie."

An Xiyan nodded, approving Zheng Zhiyong's logic: "I see."

She didn't ask again, but Zheng Zhiyong thought of some past things from this. He felt that he had to say something, "I didn't tell anyone about the current things, but I told you..." In public, Zheng Zhiyong Yong was a little vague, but An Xiyan could understand anyway, "My manager knows, Senior Sane and the others may have guessed."

An Xiyan's expression froze: "What?" Why does this involve Sane.

"Seoul Music Awards, when you turned around, I lost my composure in the audience," Jung Jiyong said, "I'm sorry."

The Seoul Music Awards is undoubtedly an impressive memory for An Xiyan. As soon as Zheng Zhiyong mentioned it briefly, she immediately connected the ins and outs. "It's nothing", she said, it really can't be said to be Zheng Zhiyong's fault, at most it's a little emotional, but if you want to say emotional, because of Quan Xianwu's words, I am not qualified to say that I didn't do it because I was worried about myself. Zheng Zhiyong, who is good at managing expressions, "I pretend I don't know, so it's fine."

"I'll pretend you don't know, too."

Well, in the end, it turns out that Zheng Zhiyong is still the guy who doesn't bother people.
