Chapter 276 Prelude Song Revealed

After a few people chatted for a while, they were all called to put on makeup and change clothes.

EXO was okay. None of the VCR shots taken today had close-ups, so they didn't need to be too delicate. However, Jiang Seulgi was severely punished by Cody. When she appeared in front of Ji Kyungwon again, she had completely changed.

A look.

Wearing a bright red tight-fitting dress, the hair hanging down from the right side of the head to the shoulders has been slightly curled, and the face is painted with exquisite heavy makeup. She does not look like a trainee who has just grown up and is about to debut, but rather like she is performing on Broadway.

stage girl.

"Does it look good?"

Although she was dressed very ladylike and retro, her secrets were immediately revealed when she moved. Jiang Seqi ran over with her skirt in high heels and ran to Chi Jingyuan's side, staring at him expectantly.

Judging from her expression, she must be very satisfied with this outfit.

"Hmm... I think this style is not very suitable for you."

Chi Jingyuan hesitated for a moment and expressed his comments tactfully.

He thought it was too glamorous and a bit vulgar.

"You're better suited to jeans." After thinking about it, Chi Jingyuan added another sentence.

"That's right, add sportswear and a ponytail. Seulgi, that style suits you best, forget about this..." Wu Shixun snickered and commented.

Jiang Seulqi, who had been smiling just now waiting to be praised, drooped her face and looked at them dissatisfiedly with her lower lip sticking out.

"Tch, you guys really don't understand fashion, so I won't tell you anymore." Jiang Seqi glanced at the two of them, then ran to look in the mirror while holding up her skirt. It seemed like she really liked this red dress.

Soon the staff was ready and started VCR shooting of the concert.

This time EXO's tour is indeed very important to SM, and quite a few VCRs will do a lot of post-production special effects to increase the effect and shock.

Seeing the EXO members surrounded by cameras, surrounded by people, and performing various non-physical performances, Kang Seulgi, who had been watching in the corner before they even got to their part, had eyes full of envy and yearning.

'When can I be like them...'

…………

Because of this incident, many industries on the peninsula have been plunged into turmoil and shutdown, and the entire place seems to have become a lot more depressed.

But life has to go on after all. After all, it involves many, many industries, and there are countless related practitioners. Even if it is for livelihood considerations, it cannot always stagnate. As time goes by, many places have

It became lively again.

After the time has entered May, some entertainment programs have gradually begun to resume airing. Although many variety shows on the three major TV stations are still suspended, it is estimated that they will not last for a few days.

On May 3, SM officially announced the album title of EXO's second mini-album, and the title song of the same name is "overdose/addicted". It also released different cover photos of the two album KM teams and a series of concept pictures.

At the same time, the song title of the preview song "dope" and the pictorial cover of the MV were also released.

The second mini-album contains a total of 6 songs, and SM specifically stated that the title song was arranged by member Yuan, and that the two included songs, including the prelude song, were composed by Yuan.

While opening the pre-sale channel, SM also announced EXO's specific comeback date and supporting promotions, including a special stage for the preview song, as well as the specific time and location of a series of activities such as showcases and autograph sessions.

However, due to the previous ban on entertainment, SM did not make any big publicity. After announcing the news, there was not much follow-up. The remaining resources will have to wait until the entertainment industry is fully restored in a few days before investing in it.

Even without much publicity, the news of EXO's official comeback still aroused strong reactions among fans, especially the style this time is very different from last year's "xoxo" period. In the released album cover, each member showed

It has a strange charm that was rarely seen before.

With the help of exaggerated hairstyles and eyeliners, EXO, who looked like a group of students wearing Saizhuan school uniforms last year, have now become mature and emotional young people who are intoxicated and confused for love. At the same time, it also highlights the album title.

Addiction' theme.

The album cover concept picture and the maze-like logo design are also refreshing.

Speaking of EXO, from their debut to now, every album has a brand new 'exo' logo, and each logo is designed with a sense of style, and has received a lot of praise from fans and passers-by.

The SM design department is really very capable. While other departments are being scolded crazily, they are the only ones who get compliments from time to time.

What fans are most looking forward to, and what has caused heated discussions, is the promotional poster for the prelude song "dope". On this poster, all six members of EXO-K are wearing various professional suits from the MV shooting.

They were in a somewhat messy room. Some of the six people were standing upright, some were sitting on the sofa, and some were leaning on the table. They were watching quietly under the slightly dim but transparent light.

The lens and the strong collision of ink colors make people feel as if they are looking at an oil painting.

Among them, Chi Jingyuan, who is located in the center left of the poster, is leaning on the table next to him. One leg is straightened and the other is bent. He looks very relaxed. He is smiling and covering his mouth with his right hand. You can vaguely see his raised eyebrows.

corner of mouth.

Paired with a police officer's uniform with the logo, he is handsome and serious and at the same time gives people a strong sense of impact. People who don't know it might think he is watching a promotional photo of a crime TV series.

The other members also have their own characteristics. Although they are all in different professional attire, they feel inexplicably harmonious when standing together in the same frame.

It was this photo that made the prelude song "dope" highly discussed, even slightly overshadowing the title song.

"Yuan's outfit is really great and eye-catching. He feels that he can handle various styles of looks."

"Ah, Officer Chi slay! He's so handsome, I'm already dying..."

"The style of the preview song is really unique, and the promotional photos are also very good. Everyone is very handsome. This is the first time I have seen EXO with this kind of feeling. I am looking forward to it! Looking forward to it!"

"I really hope to fast forward to the MV release and special stage on the 8th, I can't wait... But looking at the company's preview, it seems that this song only has one stage performance? Isn't it a little too little..."

Amid discussions in various forums and fan clubs, planet fans who had been waiting for a long time flocked to the first day of pre-sale. The number of pre-orders for EXO's second mini-album "overdose" in both Korean and Chinese versions combined reached three

One hundred thousand, and the number is increasing rapidly every moment.

Judging from this trend, it is estimated that by the time it is officially released, the number of pre-sales may be a shocking number.

At the same time, Team M also said goodbye to Team K and got on the plane to Xia Kingdom. They will perform the prelude song "dope" simultaneously with Team K on the music chart on May 8th, and will also perform the following section

Time will remain in Xia Kingdom for comeback activities, and the plan for KM and KM teams to separate activities has been officially launched.

…………

On May 6, two days before his return, Chi Kyung-won had just completed a separate magazine cover case shooting and was returning to the company in a nanny car, while Park Jae-hyun was explaining some recent work arrangements to him.

“LG is very sincere, and the terms they gave during several meetings and negotiations were very good, and this time they are not only endorsing LG mobile phones, but their products include mobile phones, mobile electronic products, mobile devices and household appliances.

Endorsement of a full line of electronic products."

"At the same time, it is not only the spokesperson within the peninsula, but also includes the identity of the spokesperson for the entire Greater China region. LG's electronic spokespersons are already among the top endorsements in the peninsula... LG has conducted detailed market surveys internally and through advertising companies.

Most of the advertisements you shot have a significant increase in sales, and your popularity and image within the Xia Kingdom are great, and your commercial value is very good. They are all very optimistic about you. "

Chi Jingyuan sat in the back seat and listened carefully, nodding from time to time.

After telling about LG, Park Jae-hyun paused for a moment, turned the pages of his notebook and started talking about the other side: "Samsung is currently not considering a full range of electronic product spokespersons. It is mainly looking for advertising endorsements for their upcoming xy note series of mobile phones.

, but this phone is Samsung’s flagship product, so it attaches great importance to it and will invest a lot in all aspects.”

"The competition is fierce. Kim Soo-hyun is currently in the leading position among all candidates. After all..."

"After all, he has been so popular recently." Chi Jingyuan saw a huge Kim Soo Hyun pictorial hanging on the roadside shopping mall he just passed by outside the window, and nodded in agreement with a smile.

"It's really popular... LG and Samsung's endorsed products are in conflict, so in the end you can only choose one of them. It depends on the opinions of Jingyuan and SM, but if you want to get Samsung

If you want to endorse here, you may need..."

Park Jae-hyun didn't finish speaking, but the meaning he expressed was very clear.

"Forget it, there's no need. Let's just decide on whichever one we can negotiate." Chi Jingyuan thought about it.

"OK."

Park Jae-hyun nodded in response, and after writing it down in his notebook, continued: "In addition, Yonsei University invites you to participate in the school anniversary performance in mid-May."

"Me? Do you want to invite us XO or just me?"

"It's your personal invitation. The other party said that because you are a very special student at Yonsei University, they want you to perform alone... Jingyuan, are you going?"

"Brother, are you talking nonsense?"

Chi Jingyuan glanced at Park Jae-hyun: "That's my alma mater. I have to hang out there for several years. How could I not go there?"

After finishing speaking angrily, Chi Jingyuan added: "Tell the company that the performance fee will be waived... This is too inappropriate, so just tell them that the performance fee will be as low as possible."

"As for the performance repertoire, I will discuss it with the company. I can't sing some of XO's group songs by myself, so I will choose a few songs from our group that I can sing solo, such as ballads."

"OK."

Park Jae-hyun made a gesture to indicate that he understood.

"Then it's your birthday party. Jingyuan, you were born in 1994, so this year's birthday is more important. SM means to rent an exhibition hall on that day, select some loyal fans, and let the fans and members hold a birthday for you together.

Will come to celebrate.”

"It just so happens that the 13th is two days before your official comeback, so we can also do some promotion." Park Jae-hyun looked at the notebook and said with a smile.

"...Can we not do it?" Chi Jingyuan leaned on the back of his chair, feeling a little tired.

He doesn't really like having this kind of party, it's troublesome and a bit sensational.

Just have a meal together as a member and upload a certification photo. It's so convenient.

"It's easy to talk to the company, but your fans must have a lot of opinions. If there is no such activity, there will probably be misunderstandings, and they feel that the company does not value you. Then it can be expected that there will definitely be excited fans who start to attack again.

SM, the impact is not very good.”

"But SM must have been used to being scolded for a long time. It doesn't matter." Park Jaehyun smiled when he said this. From the day he joined SM to now, the company has been scolded by fans every few days. It's basically
