The car door closed with a "bang." After walking out of the restaurant, Chi Jingyuan went to the parking lot and got into the nanny car.

"Where is Jingyuan going, the dormitory?" After a few seconds of silence, Cui Zhichang, the assistant in the driver's seat, turned around and asked.

Cui Zhichang probably went out to smoke a cigarette just now, and he still smelled faintly of cigarette smoke.

"Go back to the company."

We had already made plans just now, and just because of the recording in the afternoon, Chi Jingyuan was just in high spirits about that band song.

I checked the time and saw that it was not even eleven o'clock yet. It was indeed a bit too early to go back to the dormitory. Moreover, Chi Jingyuan was really busy recently. In addition to the XO team and his own solo schedule, he was also composing songs for the song festival.

tasks, and work on Kim Taeyeon’s solo album.

Tomorrow morning, I will have a meeting with Lee Soo Man and other musicians involved in album work to listen to songs to determine whether the demo I just completed can be used as Kim Taeyeon's title song.

If everything goes smoothly and there are no problems, then he can start assigning the arrangements to musicians, including himself, and the entire album production will start to get on track.

So if you can finish one thing, do it as soon as possible.

"OK."

After responding, Cui Zhichang started the car and seemed to smell the smoke on his body. He opened the windows on both sides a little.

He opened it, but Chi Jingyuan was too lazy to open it. He took in the evening breeze that came in from the front seat, took a breath, and tilted his head against the window to look at the night scene outside.

We had a dinner date last time because we didn't have time, so we finally met each other this time. We had a meal with Chi Jingyuan and talked with each other in real life, and Zhou's mother must have felt a lot more relieved.

This meal can be regarded as a feast for the guests and hosts. Zhou’s mother is indeed very enthusiastic, and Chi Jingyuan can also feel it firsthand. However, compared to the natural and casual way when getting along with Zhou Ziyu, Zhou’s mother obviously takes it a step further.

The utilitarian nature of building a relationship, including some words said in the middle, various compliments, and the special Wanwan specialties given to him at the end and the words explained, all vaguely express the other party's thoughts and feelings.

But this is normal. It is not too enthusiastic to let your daughter receive more care and concern in a foreign country like Seoul. Chi Jingyuan also understands it, but laments that parents really work hard for their children.

Heart.

As for the contract, they said they were considering it, but Zhou Ziyu and the others will definitely sign it in the end. After all, they have been practicing hard as trainees for more than three years, and after five months of competition and hard work in "Sixteen", they finally got the debut position.

It is impossible not to sign the contract just because it is strict, but you will still sign it no matter how strict it is.

The popularity of "Sixteen" has reached its peak now, and will continue to cool down after it is completed. In order to take advantage of this trend, JYP will definitely speed up the debut time of the new girl group. According to Ji Jingyuan's estimation, this

Twice should have debuted within the next two to three months.

I guess Zhou Ziyu and the others will be very busy next. They have to take a lot of classes, dance practice, recording, prepare for the new album, etc. in two or three months. The time is still very tight. They are much busier than "Sixteen".

But no matter what, I don’t feel tired anymore when I have hope, just like Bae Joo Hyun and the others before red velvet debuted.

Come on.

In her eyes, Zhou Ziyu was smiling the whole time during the meal, with her short face as if she had won the lottery. Watching the car drive into the familiar SM building, I gave her a sincere blessing in my heart.

After saying goodbye to Cui Zhichang for the time being, Chi Jingyuan went upstairs and returned to his music. He first sorted out the messed up parts of the previous shooting, then sat in front of the computer again, opened the demo of the band's song and listened to it.

Although this song has not yet been completed, the general style has been determined. Because it has been decided to change it to the theme of the band, Chi Jingyuan already has a precise direction in mind for the next arrangement.

Now, he wants to try his hand at composing lyrics.

The style and melody of this song are not suitable for words with toxic repetition of a certain syllable. Relatively speaking, lyrics with some story-telling may be more contagious.

However, both are not difficult. For Chi Jingyuan, the latter is nothing more than connecting to some experiences and fragments in his own life or seeing based on inspiration, which can be used directly after artistic processing.

"Hmph~~"

He nodded his head to the rhythm of the playing music, humming, remembering the source of inspiration for the song, and quickly typed a few words on the keyboard:

"You said you wanted to see the stars, so you took me with you."

After writing the beginning, he paused for a moment, as if he remembered something, couldn't help laughing, shook his head and continued writing:

"But there isn't a single star in the sky..."

…………

The work progressed quite smoothly in the next two days, because I had communicated with Lee Soo Man in advance, and with Kim Taeyeon’s full support and Ji Kyung Won’s own voice as a producer, the song was successfully completed.

The demo clearly positioned Taeyeon’s title song for this solo.

In the next two days, EXO held autograph sessions in several cities on the peninsula, which also brought the actual sales figures of this regular second album closer and closer to the one million mark.

But there is also a piece of news that is not very good. With the arrival of summer, girl groups are returning one after another, and each group seems to have shown their true skills. The previous AOA and Sistar have released songs for three weeks and are still going strong, performing on the music charts.

Very eye-catching.

Girls' Generation and Girlsday, who both came back on the same day on the 7th, were also very strong. EXO's "Boy with Luv", which had always been overshadowed by these girl groups and gave a disharmonious color to the girl group war in July, started to have some success.

There has been a clear decline, and the ranking on the weekly charts has fallen, and one place was successfully replaced by Sistar's "Shake It".

Although "EXODUS" among the two new songs is somewhat lacking in stamina, "if you" performed very well, competing with these girl groups at the top of the music charts...

Two days passed by in a flash, and we came to July 10th, which was also the day when two girl groups, Girls' Generation and Girlsday, who came back on the same day, performed their first stage on "Music Bank".

"It would be great if the MCs of our singing shows at that time were like you two. Then I will definitely find a chance to try it."

Jin Hyoyuan looked at Ji Jingyuan and Bae Zhuhyun who walked into their lounge. After saying hello and greetings, he looked at Bae Zhuhyun who was standing aside and dressed beautifully. He couldn't help but say, with a sour tone, as if he was a little envious.

.

Today, the company's seniors came to sing, and they were very familiar girls from Girls' Generation. As MCs, Ji Kyung Won and Bae Zhu Hyun must have come to say hello in private. After a few people finished recording the stage in advance and came back to rest,

The two people who happened to be free knocked on the door together and walked in.

As soon as Chi Jingyuan came in and said hello, he was pulled over by Kim Taeyeon, while the other sisters started teasing Irene.

"I heard that due to the leadership of Jingyuan and Irene, the position of MC on singing programs on several TV stations has become much more popular now."

"Furthermore, the ratings of "Music Bank" have become so high now, not only the advertising costs, but also the number of artists who want to sing.

"That's for sure. Being a song MC is just like "We Got Married". If you are an idol, who wouldn't want to do it?"

"Irene, do you want me to replace you for one episode? I also want to try hosting with Jingyuan."

"Kekeke..."

Being surrounded by several senior seniors who were like wolves and tigers, Bae Zhuhyun couldn't hold back and covered her mouth and laughed. She didn't know how to reply to these SNSD seniors who she was not very familiar with. She just could

He bent his eyes and laughed non-stop.

As for Girls' Generation, Bae Joo Hyun has only had a little kiss with Kim Taeyeon, and they just exchanged contact information a few days ago, so they haven't gotten to know each other for a few days.

Even though she was born in 1991, she is almost in the same generation as SNSD, and even a little older than maknae Seohyun, but one has been debuting for eight years and the other has been one year. Standing next to these sisters, as the junior Bae Joo Hyun,

The performance was obviously much weaker, and he looked like a cute newcomer, nodding obediently, applauding, and giggling.

When I was really helpless after being laughed at, I would secretly glance at Chi Jingyuan who was pulled aside to talk about something.

"I have been listening to the demo for two days. It is great. It is completely my style. Now I have a strong feeling about what words to write. I will write it in two days and show it to you... In fact, yesterday

I’ve tried to write a little bit.”

In front of the dressing table next to the lounge, Kim Taeyeon and Chi Kyung-won were communicating quietly with a bottle of drink each.

SNSD, who had just finished recording the stage, were all wearing exquisite full makeup. This girl's style today is a very eye-catching long slightly curly hair with golden gradient color. She also wears this big sequined bow on her head, which is placed next to a bunch of SNSD girls.

The most eye-catching one in the crowd is Lin Yoon-ah, who is sitting on the sofa not far away and smiling, with blonde hair shawl and a delicate pigtail.

As soon as you walk in, you can smell a tangy aroma. After sitting next to you, the smell becomes much lighter.

Chi Kyung-won sipped the straw and sipped the orange juice that SNSD's manager just handed him. He nodded and listened to Kim Taeyeon's words. After listening, he smacked his lips with interest: "Have you written a little yet? Noona.

Sing it and let me listen?"

"Hmm..." Kim Taeyeon was a little moved, but after looking at the noisy scene of about twenty people in the lounge next to her, she still waved her hand: "Forget it, it's not convenient here. I'll give it to you after I finish writing it.

"Soon, I have found the feeling. It will take less than two days..."

"Ah, Kim Taeyeon, what are you whispering about? Jingyuan was occupied by you as soon as he came. He came to say hello to all of us, not just you. Isn't it amazing that he wants to go solo?"

Before Kim Taeyeon could finish her words, she was interrupted by the members who were already a little unhappy. As soon as she said this, accomplices immediately followed her:

"That's right, I'm not here to find you."

"Irene and I are our partners, what's the point of dragging them away?"

"Yeah..."

Kim Taeyeon, who was squeezed out, cursed secretly, as if she was fainted with anger, shook her head and rolled her eyes. Seeing that now was not the time to talk, she made a 'chat on the phone' gesture with Chi Jingyuan,

He walked over aggressively and began to exercise his authority as captain.

Chi Jingyuan also shook his head and followed. After taking a look at Pei Zhuxuan, who was cute and cute in the crowd, he started chatting casually with Sunny next to him.

I don’t know if this girl offended Cody. Today’s style is a bit speechless. She has bright red long hair that sticks to her head. It looks like a piece of seaweed that has been dyed with pigment. I don’t know what it is.

How I came up with this hairstyle can only be described as "curious".

Not to mention that she is as beautiful as Kim Taeyeon and Lin Yoona, but she wouldn’t have such a side effect of her hairstyle...

Chi Jingyuan felt that Sunny didn't seem to like this look very much. He would pull his hair twice when he said a few words. He was obviously coming back on stage, but he didn't seem very interested and seemed a bit lazy.

After chatting and joking around in a lively atmosphere for twenty minutes, Ji Kyung Won, Bae Joo Hyun and their SNSD seniors said goodbye and went back to prepare for the live broadcast that was about to start today.

At five o'clock in the evening, "Music Bank" started broadcasting on time. After the not-so-well-known girl group MINX finished their performance, the camera showed the two MCs who had been waiting at the host station for a long time.
