Thinker in the entertainment industry

Long Junheng was standing next to the underground entrance, holding his mobile phone "as if he were dying".The two brothers Kim Heechul and Kim Jaejoong can’t be counted on—Yong Junhyung doesn’t know that the situation is bad and asks for help casually, but Zheng Zhiyong doesn’t think that it’s impossible for him to be involved in this. Long Junhyung must be mentally prepared to face Zheng Zhiyong .

To some extent, it's like Zheng Zhiyong has to be mentally prepared to face those old acquaintances who "are left without saying goodbye".

"Waiting for me?" What Long Junheng was waiting for was not a text message or a phone call, but Zheng Zhiyong's real person.

Zheng Zhiyong's hat was casually held in his hand, his expression was a bit tired, but there was no negative emotion such as dissatisfaction.

"Well", Long Junheng saw Zheng Zhiyong like this, and his heart almost returned to the original place, "Are you okay?" Say, "But bro, I'm a little curious, how much do you know?"

"

You used to be a trainee, but you didn’t continue because of an accident. You told me everything, is there anything else? "Long Junheng said the truth.

"Yes, but it involves other people. I don't know if it's appropriate to say it."

"Then don't talk about it, I don't want to know." Long Junheng said seriously.

Zheng Zhiyong was stunned for a moment, then lowered his head and smiled: "Okay."

Some people control their own destiny, while others are made by fate.Zheng Zhiyong once thought he was the former, but now he has become the latter.Zheng Zhiyong was very passive along the way. Fortunately, his luck was not too bad - after that accident, he met very good friends and good colleagues.

Now, in front of his old acquaintances, he confessed his weakness and meanness seven years ago.

It seems... It's not as bad as imagined, although he hasn't faced the real victim yet.

Long Junheng carried the lyrics book with him, and Zheng Zhiyong borrowed a pen when he wanted to come over, and sat down to write quickly.Long Junhyung was sitting on the side, waiting for Zheng Zhiyong to stop writing before leaning forward: "New work?" Sure enough, it is the type of song that can only be written when there are some things. If he talks about a relationship, will he be more inspired?

""Reunion" is a lyrical song, suitable for female voices." Zheng Zhiyong said.

"It's just that Yoseob can do it if the pitch is high."

Zheng Zhiyong immediately vomited, and almost jumped his waist: "You have nothing against him, right? The part given to him in "12:30" is extremely tragic."

"I trust our lead singer," Long Junhyung defended himself, "If it doesn't work, the younger sisters will debut soon..."

"Half of it is rap."

Zheng Zhiyong's added words completely shattered the pink bubble in Long Junhyung's world: "Who do you want to sing when you make it like this." Why is it so difficult to be a good employee? He has really tried his best to fight for his teammates and junior sisters. Welfare.

"I have an idea, but I'm not sure. If it doesn't work, let's revise it." Zheng Zhiyong let out a long breath, "It's getting late, I'll go say hello to Simond and then go back. What's your plan? "

"Together", Long Junheng took out his mobile phone and checked the time, "Your speed is really fast, you can finish a song in 10 minutes."

"It's like this when the inspiration comes. Now I just have a structure, and the subsequent arrangement will take a lot of time," Zheng Zhiyong said, "But it is too difficult to write songs when there is no inspiration. This has always worried me." .

Zheng Zhiyong told Long Junheng about this, and Long Junheng made a joke: "Should I write a bunch of semi-finished products and hand them over to you?"

Zheng Zhiyong glanced at Long Junheng with a look of "Why are you so thick-skinned", and said two words lightly: "Quality."

Long Junhyung: "I found that your aura seems a little different today, Zheng Zhiyong."

Zheng Zhiyong was taken aback: "The occasion is different." He said.

"So you exposed some of your nature?" Long Junheng smiled, "But it feels good, I'm actually quite curious about your nature."

"what?"

"I'm serious, Jung Jiyong." Long Junhyung stretched out his hand to hold Jung Jiyong's arm, and said, "We're getting closer now, so don't keep dealing with me the way you get along with your colleagues."

Zheng Zhiyong laughed with a "puchi" and raised his eyebrows: "Let's talk about it when we are not colleagues."

Long Junheng's outstretched hand slid down quickly, pulling away the lyrics book.

In fact, Zheng Zhiyong is not as calm as he appears.Kim Heechul and Kim Jaejoong did not blame him very much, frankly speaking about what happened that year did relieve Zheng Zhiyong of a lot of psychological burden, but after that, Zheng Zhiyong will inevitably face the memory of a comeback.

Seven years ago, SuperJunior, who was rising all the way, TVXQ, who was in full swing, Zheng Zhiyong, who was full of vigor and ambition under the gentle appearance, and Kim Heechul once joked that after Zheng Zhiyong made his debut, the three of them could form a team called SM Three Generation Boys Group The ace set, Zheng Zhiyong was in charge of dancing, and Kim Jaejoong was in charge of singing. He was in charge of the meal, and then he was teased by Kim Jaejoong who revealed the black history of the scene not long after his debut. .Seeing that the two seniors were about to quarrel again, Zheng Zhiyong had no choice but to find a way to end the topic: "Senior, do you have small groups in the music industry now? Do you want to innovate?"

terminated successfully.

At that time, small teams within the group were rare, but now, small teams across groups, or even cross-companies, are no longer a surprise.

Zheng Zhiyong lowered his head and covered his eyes with his hands. After a long time, he put his hands down and took out the paper torn from Long Junheng's lyrics book, and began to copy stroke by stroke.

"Always remember, a long time ago, the days with you were bright and sunny. My love, the dead love, turned into ashes and spread before my eyes. One day, we meet again, and passing by with a smile can't bring back the time. Even if you, forget I can't bear it, and we can't go back to the past."

In any case, there is no going back.

Fortunately, Long Junhyung just glanced at the lyrics and didn't read the lyrics carefully, otherwise he felt a little ashamed, Jung Jiyong thought.He is still unaccustomed to wantonly being emotional in front of people he is familiar with but not very familiar with. Even when writing hip-hop lyrics, he will restrain his emotions. The law of the underground is simple and direct but cruel. sanity.

Fortunately, there is such a good thing as lyric music.

Zheng Zhiyong took out his mobile phone, clicked on the address book, and dangled his fingers between the two options of "dial" and "send text messages", but finally he pressed "exit" and turned to look at the music list.

The sound source of "mywayornoway" was released at noon on the third day after the broadcast.In two days, the fans who are interested in the music industry have almost communicated with each other. When it came time to pronounce the source, the student party had plenty of time on weekends. Recently, there have been no "sound source hooligans" such as the infinite challenge song festival to come out to compete. " "mywayornoway" rushed to No. [-] in the Bugs and M[-] rankings in a short period of time. Of course, it didn't last long. Zheng Zhiyong looked at it before performing on stage at night, and it has dropped to almost ten.

But now, Zheng Zhiyong experienced a long-lost reunion with old acquaintances, slept for a few more hours, got up and looked at the music charts, "mywayornoway" has almost returned to the top five in each chart, obviously full of stamina .The retrograde ranking of songs on the music source list should be discussed on a case-by-case basis. If it is due to some incidents, it depends on what happened. The singer stopped playing songs, and fans bought music sources for the purpose of "memory" and so on. The song will not improve much Value, like exid's "Up and Down", it is a real good thing that everyone realizes "ah, this song is good" because of an accidental opportunity, and if there is no major event and the ranking goes retrograde... then it can only be Explain that the audience likes the song.

It's the fourth song, Zheng Zhiyong certainly understands the situation.

"Spring" and "you don't know" are directly confused, "Tears" is stained with the light of ""Up and Down" retrograde", and in the end the real red is "mywayornoway" which had to be promised due to a misjudgment. It's something that makes people a little speechless.

However, it should bring me some convenience.

After sighing, Zheng Zhiyong began to think about the problem rationally, and then he made a decision:

Call Ahn Hyo Jin.

After An Xiaozhen received the call, she immediately asked for an audition, as if she had never asked Zheng Zhiyong to ask for a song but was declined.And Zheng Zhiyong thought that exid, who has counterattacked all the way in "Up and Down", should be very busy recently, and didn't want to labor her, so he decided to go for a trip by himself.

He went directly to exid's agency company, An Xiaozhen came out to lure him into the company, and said as he walked, "Sister Suzhi is teaching vocal music, I'm afraid she will have to wait a while before she comes over."

"It's okay, let's look at the rap part first," Zheng Zhiyong said, "But... teaching vocal music?"

"Hui Lin and Zheng Hua."

Zheng Zhiyong understood in seconds.

There are five members in exid, and the strength distribution is uneven. Ahn Hyo Jin is very strong in rapping, Xu Solji is very strong in singing, and currently the most popular member Hani is very good at performing on stage. up.Sometimes Xu Huilin can't even find the right tone. As for Park Junghwa, she can't sing very well and her voice is very loud. Zheng Zhiyong doesn't know how to evaluate...

Now exid is very popular, but their popularity is all based on the "Divine Comedy" "Up and Down", which is very unstable.And "strength" will largely affect the public's impression of a combination.For example, Cube's head group Beast, five years ago when the sound was out of order, gave a wonderful noise-cancelling stage, which gave them [-] more registered fans overnight, and the reputation was also extremely good.Exo, the male group under SM, which is currently in the limelight, has been criticized every time it wins an award because of frequent lip-syncing.Others are popular, have company support, and have time to slowly improve their strength, so exid is more urgent.It's scary to think about it after enjoying the taste of popularity and then going back to the original shape.

Passing the door of the practice room, Zheng Zhiyong and An Xiaozhen met an unexpected person. "hani? Your trip is over?"

"It's over, come and practice for a while."

The person here is one of the "heroes" who made exid so popular - Hani, the protagonist of the stage meal of "Up and Down". After "Up and Down" became popular, she participated in variety shows such as "runningman" one after another. The "bold and unrestrained" style has received enthusiastic responses, and is currently the member with the highest awareness of exid, and of course, the most itinerary.

At this time, Hani without makeup, wearing loose sportswear and pulling up the hat behind the clothes, has a completely different feeling from the stage. Even though Zheng Zhiyong's ability to remember faces is good, he didn't react immediately.

But now he knows. "Hello, I'm thinker, Zheng Zhiyong." Zheng Zhiyong leaned forward slightly, about thirty degrees, and said with a nod.

"Hello, I'm Hani, An Xiyan", the other party returned the salute to Zheng Zhiyong with exactly the same routine, raised his head and asked An Hyojin, "Is there a new song?"

"Hi, I'm Le, An Hyo Jin," An Hyo Jin imitated by raising his hand, "I haven't heard the new song yet, do you want to listen to it together?"

What she said later was ignored. Zheng Zhiyong and An Xiyan were first amused by her self-introduction, and then turned their heads together and said "I know" to her.

Ahn Hyo Jin: ...
