Chapter 40 Kiss(1/2)
The first quarter was not bad. Although the lead was huge, it only occupied the top two, which gave people a feeling that it was not that deep.
But as soon as the rankings for the second quarter came out, all the VCR clips had the same logo, and the narration read out the same singer's name. The scene where the top five were completely occupied while being far away from the others was shocking.
It attracted everyone, including the audience, and even the idols watching from the side.
(I made a mistake at the end of the previous chapter and it has been revised)
Although everyone has actually been mentally prepared before, after all, last year was a milestone year for EXO. The mythical sales volume that broke the perception of industry practitioners has become a new ceiling for Kpop. Every company, every idol
The group must have heard about it privately and discussed things about XO.
But I just listened to those statistics and rainbow farts, and just sighed. It was far different from hearing EXO's name being read out continuously in my ears at this moment, and watching Chi Jingyuan's group of people going up and down.
Receiving the award was shocking.
"...I am very grateful for the awards presented by the conference. I want to say thank you to many people. We will continue to make progress in 2016 and thank our fans for their support. We will continue to carry this sense of mission and become upright musicians..."
I don’t know how many times this was the first time I went up to accept the award. I have already said what needs to be said. After Park Chanyeol finally gave a fresh acceptance speech, EXO walked off the stage with a tired step, surrounded by various comments thrown at him.
He sat down again with eyes filled with envy, admiration, or indifference.
When the lights dimmed, Chi Jingyuan leaned back in his chair and relaxed as he looked at Gfriend who walked onto the stage and was about to start his next performance.
At the end of the year, no one cheered for Gfriend at all, but as soon as Gfriend appeared on the stage, loud cheers came from the audience. Although it is not as good as EXO and other boy groups, it is still very popular among the guests tonight.
There is one with a card on it.
Gfriend has been doing really well recently. It’s really trending. In the second week after the release of "Time Passage", it won all the top spots on all singing programs. The two songs "Dream" and "Rain" are also very popular.
I was selected as an alternate several times even though I didn't have a song to play, but unfortunately I was knocked out by "Time Passage" every time.
Obviously Gfriend and twice debuted in the same year, but twice could only perform at the front of the first half, while Gfriend was arranged in the second half. He was one of the last artists to take the stage, and was given the stage for two songs.
time.
They are both new girl groups. Due to the popularity of their comeback, Twice and others have obviously widened the gap now.
After several stage performances, instead of continuing with the album awards for the last two quarters, they began to award an award called 'Part-time Job of the Year'. This award is also unique to Gaon Chart and is used to commend the artists who were discovered last year.
The most successful PD in producing albums is working part-time.
"...Then the winner of the 2015 Gaon Chart K-POP AWARDS, Producer of the Year Award is... Please watch VCR!"
The award presenter, actor Lee Jung-jin, after looking at the script and talking a lot, pointed back, and the big screen on the stage began to play the prepared VCR. The next second, Lee Soo-man wore black-rimmed glasses and squinted his eyes.
The smiling photo appeared on the screen, and the SM artists in the audience and the fans in the venue suddenly cheered.
"Annual Producer...He is...SM Lee Soo Man."
"He entered the music industry by releasing a song in June 1971... He released his first self-titled album 'Lee Soo Man' in 1977, and established 'SM Project' in 1989... SM company was officially established in 1995."
"After that, H.O.T., TVXQ, SJ, Girls' Generation, Shinee, EXO, red velvet...we have discovered a large number of musicians in the past few decades..."
The Producer of the Year award is very prestigious, and the organizer also specially produced a VCR of the award-winning actor Lee Soo-man's acting career. When the names of the company's artists and groups were not mentioned, the fans in the audience cheered excitedly.
Chi Jingyuan also smiled and clapped while looking at the praise for Lee Soo Man above, but he always felt that this black and white video, coupled with the solemn and slow female voice narration, coupled with the VCR with oversized black and white photos that sometimes occupied half of the screen,
It's not like commending and bragging to the winners, but it's a bit like an obituary at a funeral, solemnly reviewing and summarizing Lee Soo Man's life...
Although I don’t respect Teacher Lee Soo Man very much, this VCR really has this strong sense of déjà vu. I wonder if he would feel this way after seeing it himself.
"Lee Soo Man, the best producer in the Peninsula music industry, will continue the era of SM!"
Seeing that the VCR had finished playing, Lee Teuk began to guide and host: "Here, the winner of the annual producer award is Mr. Lee Soo Man. We have invited SM artists Taeyeon, XO, and red velvet to come on stage to accept the award on his behalf, and at the same time read out on his behalf.
Prepared acceptance speech.”
While he was speaking, Chi Jingyuan had already stood up with the EXO team. These had been rehearsed before. All the SM artists present today stood up from their seats, walked onto the stage together with a smile and stood in a group.
.
After some humility, the senior Kim Taeyeon stood in the middle, EXO stood in two rows on the left and occupied the largest position, and the five red velvet huddled together on the right with smiles that looked a little green.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Chi Jingyuan was squeezed into the middle. As a representative, he received the trophy from Li Tingzhen and stood amidst the smiles of his teammates and Bae Zhuhyun who were watching the show.
In front of the microphone, he took a breath and pursed his lips.
"Oh? Is it Yuan Xi who will speak in place of Mr. Lee Soo Man?" Host Li Teuk saw this scene and immediately asked.
"cough……"
Chi Jingyuan did not answer. Instead, he cleared his throat after the fans' cheers quieted down. Then he held his throat and imitated Li Xiuman's high-pitched voice in an ups and downs tone:
"Anihasay, Li Xiuman Yimeda..."
"Hahaha……"
As soon as he said something, the group of SM people standing behind burst out laughing. Park Chanyeol put his hand on Wu Sehun's shoulder and laughed. Kim Taeyeon lowered her head and kept shaking, while Bae Joo Hyun covered her mouth.
Looking at Chi Jingyuan's back, his eyes are very beautiful.
They laughed not only because Ji Kyung-won was imitating Lee Soo-man's voice and speech in the first person, but also because the tone and pronunciation he imitated were so similar.
"Ahh..." The other idols and fans below all reacted after being stunned for a moment. The fans found it very interesting and immediately cheered excitedly.
"I'm very happy to meet you all. First of all, I would like to thank the organizer for awarding this award. This is a good encouragement to me... In fact, I haven't done much. Many of them are the efforts of the staff and artists themselves...
"
Because the vertical microphone is relatively low, Chi Kyung-won is playing the role of Lee Soo-man, who is playing the role of Lee Soo-man, who is immersed in the microphone with a slight bow. This kind of vocal imitation is not difficult for him, and because he is so familiar with Lee Soo-man, he is also familiar with the other person's speaking habits.
The imitation is very good
The reason why Ji Kyung-won spoke on behalf of Lee Soo-man was because Lee Soo-man called him after he learned that he had won the award. When he was concerned and chatting, he casually mentioned, "Let Kyung-won make a speech on my behalf." After that,
The work was given to him.
"This is the human nature of SM. Good goals and culture will make us strive to be the people we want to be, let us be humble and kind, and become love. We will return to greater heights with all the fans who support us with happiness and love.
Joy and love!”
Hearing this, Kim Taeyeon and the others in the back couldn't help but lower their heads and laugh uncontrollably. This kind of false and empty words with awkward sentences is completely Lee Soo Man's style. In the past, they wanted to do it every time they heard it in meetings.
I fell asleep, but when I heard Chi Jingyuan's imitation in this place, I felt extremely funny and wanted to laugh.
"Then, as a producer, I will continue to work hard, continue to promote cooperation with companies around the world, and launch excellent music and works. I will better utilize the power of music and build a cultural universe with artists. Thank you all for your support.
support.
Chi Jingyuan said while pretending to push up the non-existent glasses on the bridge of his nose. Even though his teammates next to him could no longer hold back their laughter, he still saluted sincerely as he was already in the mood.
He didn't make up these last few sentences casually. He couldn't say such vague words. They were all said by Li Xiuman himself during the previous meeting.
"Hahaha..." The people at the twice table in the audience, Nai Minami, Minatozaki Saka and others looked at Chi Jingyuan who was speaking on the stage, and they all held back their laughter and applauded. Seeing Chi Jingyuan's funny look, Nai
The southern gums are sticking out.
Lin Nalian was so amused by Chi Jingyuan's ridiculous tone and imitation that she started to laugh. She pulled Yu Dingyan next to her and shook her. After shaking twice, she stopped suddenly. Her expression suddenly became serious, her eyes narrowed, and her voice
Yijia also started to imitate: "This is the human nature of JYP. I don't want people with bad character... hahaha."
After imitating it twice, she couldn't help it anymore and fell on Yu Dingyan's lap, laughing and panting.
At this time, Chi Kyung-yuan also stepped down and handed the microphone to Kim Jun-myeon. After he said a few more serious words of thanks, a group of SM people left amid the cheers of fans.
Soon it was EXO's turn to perform on stage, with "EXODUS", "Orientation Sniper" and "Boy with Luv" performing three songs in a row. Although the fans in the audience cheered enthusiastically, Chi Jingyuan felt that the entire team was not in good condition today.
, the live effect can only be said to be average when the mic is fully turned on, but fortunately there are no obvious mistakes.
After the stages of EXO and Big Bang ended one after another, the entire award ceremony came to its final moment. The album awards for the last two quarters were without any exception.
"Singer of the Year Award for the third quarter, album department, fifth place, TVXQ's "Rise as God", fourth place, SJ's "Devil", third place, EXO's "L" Korean version, second place "EXO-L"
Chinese Version."
"The last one is, EXO, the Korean version of "EXO-L"!"
"..."
"Singer of the Year Award for the fourth quarter, album department, fourth place, VIXX's "Chain"... second place, Chinese version of EXO's "Sing for You"... and finally the first place in the fourth quarter is..."
"EXO, "Sing for You" Korean version, thick Camida!"
EXO, who had just stepped off the stage after receiving the award, stood up again, put on an excited smile, returned to the stage, accepted the award sincerely, and then repeated the speech they had just said not long ago.
So far, EXO has won all the awards in the four quarters of this year's Gaon Chart K-POP AWARDS album department. From the first quarter to the fourth quarter of 2015, EXO has the highest album sales. In several quarters, they have even won all the previous awards.
s position.
Including individual awards, they received a total of 10 trophies tonight. The title of ten crown champions can be regarded as a new commemoration of their legendary 2015.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Except for receiving an award at the beginning, an unknown rabbit who was in the audience the whole time couldn't help but clicked his tongue and muttered inexplicably when he saw the end.
:
"Are you tired from going up and down..."
…
After the award ceremony, there was a heated discussion on the Internet about EXO's "Ten Crowns".
They really stole the show tonight. Anyone who watched this award ceremony will be completely brainwashed by the name 'EXO' that kept appearing from beginning to end.
And no one questions their results last year. The good thing about Gaon Chart is that the awards are based on specific data. The number of music sources each person has, the number of listens and downloads are clearly displayed in the list, even for black fans.
