Chapter 225: IU who breaks the rules of his predecessors
On the stage, the new idol group is mixing and performing together.
The originally dull venue suddenly erupted into deafening screams at a certain moment.
"ah"
The artists in the singer area and guest area looked up one after another, not knowing what was going on.
Until I heard the fans present shouting: "Are those Lee Sung-ho and IU over there?"
The singer area is near the corridor. Idols and solo singers were the first to see what was going on. It was indeed Li Chenghao and iu who were here, and Li Chenghao was holding iu's hand.
Sitting next to exo was red velvet. The five of them were stunned when they saw Li Chenghao appearing with Iu in hand.
Then Seulgi and the four others looked at Bae Zhuhyun one after another. Bae Zhuhyun's expression did not change at all. She just glanced briefly and then turned her attention to the stage.
Li Chenghao and iu passed by the singer area and went directly to the guest area. The seats were originally prepared for Li Chenghao and iu.
Before taking a seat
Song Ji Hyo, Lee Je Hoon, Kim Yoo Jung, Kwon Yool, Kim Sae Ron, Kim Jae Wook, Nam Joo Hyuk, Ahn Jae Hyun, Lee Young Ae, Yoon Kye Sang, Lee Ha Ni and many other actors greeted Lee Sung Ho and IU.
IU covered her chest and bent down to nod in return, while Li Chenghao smiled and nodded lightly.
Take a seat
Li Chenghao let go of Iu's hand and leaned into her ear and said: "There will be heating."
Iu didn't feel cold, she was just nervous during the walk.
It was too stressful to be stared at by countless pairs of eyes, including those singers and actors. Li Chenghao didn't pay attention to it the whole time, but IU felt differently.
IU had never dared to think about the concept of SJ, a senior who debuted before me, bowing down and saluting me.
Senior actress Lee Young-ae, who is a national-level actress, and senior actress Song Ji-hyo, who gained popularity through Running Man, also took the initiative to bend down to greet me. At that moment, IU didn't know how to react.
In a circle where the culture of younger generations is extremely important, this rule was broken by iu tonight.
"Is there water?"
Li Chenghao picked up the water on the table and unscrewed the bottle cap and handed it to iu.
This action is very ordinary, but in the eyes of others, it is extraordinary.
Li Chenghao actually twists the bottle cap for iu. Sure enough, iu holds a very important position in Li Chenghao's mind.
Iu didn't pay attention to this. After drinking half a bottle of water, he finally felt better.
Watching the new group performing on the stage, Li Chenghao asked: "It's now time, can you tell me which award is going to be awarded?"
"Now let us welcome..."
On the stage, the MC guided the rhythm, and the guests came on stage and began to award new artist awards.
iu guessed: "Is it the best group award?"
Li Chenghao finally told her: "No, we are presenting the Best Singer of the Year, Best Album of the Year and Best Song of the Year awards."
"real?"
I can't help but be shocked.
These three awards are Mama's three most important awards. In the past, they were awarded by well-known stars in Asia and even internationally. The faces of famous world stars like Andy Lau and Chow Yun-fat instantly appeared in IU's memory.
"Did you think I would award any newcomer award?"
Don’t be surprised if the award is presented together with Li Chenghao. Although he is not a world star, his status in the entertainment circle of country H is not low, not to mention the aura of blessing from other careers.
Mama is an awards ceremony hosted by CJ Entertainment. It is natural for Li Chenghao to present the grand award at the end, but can she?
The stage performance continues after the Newcomer Award presentation.
S.M Company has the largest number of artists coming to the award ceremony this time.
Shortly after nct’s performance, red and velvet took the stage.
From the beginning of the song "peek-a-boo", iu has been singing along with red and velvet on the stage.
As soon as the prelude of "red flavor" started playing, iu couldn't control himself anymore and sang along with the rhythm of the music, "Red flavor, I'm really curious, honey."
While singing, he subconsciously turned towards Li Chenghao, and this scene was actually captured by the live camera, which instantly triggered a burst of screams.
After IU noticed it, he immediately restrained his interest and said to Li Chenghao: "It's all your fault."
Li Chenghao didn't do anything. He just clapped his hands rhythmically while red velvet performed and enjoyed the stage. The high interest was caused by Iu himself, and Li Chenghao didn't let iu sing red velvet's song to him.
on stage
Every single shot of Bae Joo Hyun can ignite the enthusiasm of the fans at the scene.
IU murmured: "Joohyun Unnie is so beautiful and sexy. I also want to wear her black short skirt and perform on the stage."
"Yeah, hers can be said to be sexy, but it looks funny when you wear it."
"Funny? My figure is no worse than Joohyun Unnie's."
"Eight pounds and eight taels"
IU was criticized again, she pursed her lips and focused on the stage instead of talking to Li Chenghao.
After watching Red Velvet's stage, Li Chenghao got up and went to the bathroom. The awards ceremony would last for a long time, and he had to take into account the reputation of CJ Entertainment and couldn't smoke on site. It was really awkward.
Backstage
Smoking area at the entrance to the bathroom.
A naked man in a black suit is also smoking.
After seeing Li Chenghao coming, he subconsciously hid the cigarette behind his back.
“Hello, President Nim”
Taking the initiative to say hello to Li Chenghao, Li Chenghao blew out a puff of smoke and looked at the striking-looking man in front of him. If Li Chenghao hadn't known who this man was, he would have mistakenly thought that a gang member had sneaked in.
"Are you Wu Hyuk?"
When Li Chenghao called out his name, Wu Hyuk even felt a little excited: "Yes, President nim."
“The song I collaborated with Zhien is pretty good.”
The cigarette in Wu Hyuk's hand fell to the floor. He waved his hands crazily and explained: "President Nim, I have absolutely no special relationship with IU. It's just an ordinary collaboration song. I didn't have any evil intentions when shooting the MV.
I also focus on playing the guitar during stage performances, really.”
Li Chenghao took out his cigarette case and handed one to Wu Hyuk: "I mean the song you collaborated on is good, what are you talking about?"
Wu He took the cigarette with trembling hands.
He couldn't tell what Li Chenghao meant. In short, everyone in the rap circle knew about Sane's ending. If he was targeted by Li Chenghao, his life would be ruined.
Wu Hyuk did not expect to meet Li Chenghao at the bathroom door. If he had known that this would happen, he would have quit smoking even if he had to cut off his hands. In the future, he would not dare to take the risk when iu proposed cooperation.
"Are you shortlisted for any awards tonight?"
"That, best collaboration award"
"Oh, I wish you the award."
Wu Hyuk could not feel the congratulations from Li Chenghao at all, and he did not light the cigarette that Li Chenghao handed him. Instead, he carefully put the cigarette into his pocket, said goodbye to Li Chenghao and returned to the award ceremony.
Li Chenghao looked at Wu Hyuk who left in a panic and didn't quite understand: "He looks so scary that people don't dare to approach him. I don't have such an appearance. Why is he afraid of me in turn? It's strange."
