"Don't cut it too short. You still need to leave some bangs. Even police officers have long hair, and there are quite a lot of them..."

"And if it's completely cut into a square length, it actually doesn't look like a policeman, but more like a serving soldier..."

"But Jingyuan, your face shape is really great, and short hair is actually very handsome. Paired with softer facial features, it can also neutralize the toughness of short hair, making the whole person feel less aggressive."

"Perfect!"

Sister Dy was working on Chi Jingyuan's head with various tools in her hands, while talking to him very warmly. At the same time, Chi Jingyuan's hair, which had been with him for more than a year, was also growing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

After more than an hour, Dy clapped her hands in admiration, while Chi Jingyuan stood up from the chair with a completely different look from yesterday, and looked closely at himself in the mirror carefully.

The previously long hair has disappeared, replaced by a hair of moderate length. It is much shorter than before but not as short as a board. There are some scattered bangs on the forehead, and the sideburns on both sides are obvious.

The hair was shaved a little shorter to show off the entire lower jaw line, and the top of the hair was styled into a rippled and fragmented style, adding a lot of fashion.

The overall look has a refreshing and refreshing feeling. Compared with the previous look, it is a completely different style. I can’t say who is good and who is bad. They are obviously more energetic at this time, and the short hair makes the already excellent facial features outline.

It stands out and becomes more photogenic.

As an idol, hairstyle is very important. Many times, idols change their style by changing various hairstyles. There are also some idols whose appearance is not excellent and whose appearance is average, and they need various hairstyles to cover up their appearance.

The blemishes have the effect of covering up the ugliness.

Speaking of which, this is the first time that Chi Jingyuan has cut his hair so short since his debut. Although he had trimmed it during previous filming, it had never been cut this short.

Although it doesn't look like idol's style, fortunately, the effect is quite good.

Chi Jingyuan looked left and right in the mirror, nodding secretly and feeling quite satisfied.

And at least for a long time to come, it will be much easier to take care of your hair.

"Hey Yigu, Jingyuan, you look like this..."

After getting their hair cut and returning to the dormitory, seeing Chi Jingyuan's new look, the other EXO members immediately got excited. They gathered around to admire and observe, and kept expressing their opinions and comments.

"This is too short, haha..."

"I think it's quite handsome and has a lot of flavor." Do Kyung-soo held her chin with her hand and looked at Chi Kyung-won's hairstyle and was very satisfied: "That character is a policeman, right? It really suits him."

"Will fans be dissatisfied?"

"How is it possible, brother, don't you understand the fans? If they knew that Jingyuan cut his hair short for filming, they would only proudly show off to the fans of other groups... And I think Jingyuan's style is very good-looking,

It makes me want to give it a try..."

"No, you think you are Jingyuan? Short hair will make your face look too long..."

"Ya 1 Xi Ba..."

The second round of auditions for "Signal" was scheduled for November 10th, the day after EXO returned from Neon. Perfect and Chi Jingyuan's schedule there was staggered. Apparently SM also communicated with the crew.

This audition will determine the final candidate for the male lead of the drama, Park Hae-young. In addition to Ji Kyung-won, Lee Je-hoon is also here.

Another candidate, Lee Jong Suk, may have received internal information and gave up the audition immediately after knowing that he had little hope for this role. After all, he has been popular in recent years and is considered one of the most popular among young actors.

In acting, there is no need to put in so much effort for a role that you definitely have no chance of doing.

"Jingyuanxi is here. Hey Yigu, he is really handsome. Sit down."

"Senior, Anihasay."

"There's no need to be so polite, I've wanted to get to know you for a long time..."

Two candidates, Ji Kyung-won and Lee Je-hoon, met in the tvn lounge. However, even though they were the biggest competitors for the male lead position, and Lee Je-hoon should have known through his own connections that he was already at a disadvantage in the competition.

, but he didn't seem to be unhappy or obviously hostile. Instead, after seeing Chi Jingyuan coming, he naturally waved and said hello, and his attitude was quite enthusiastic.

They are all people who have been in the industry for so long, and there are no substantive conflicts. No matter what, they are getting along on the surface.

Naturally, Chi Jingyuan responded with courtesy and a smile, sitting next to Li Dixun and chatting with him.

This guy also has short hair, obviously cut specially for this role, but the length is a little longer than Chi Jingyuan's.

It can be heard from Lee Je-hoon's words that he is quite optimistic about "Signal". After all, he has not yet had a representative work that he can produce after being discharged from the army. This is a tvn 10th anniversary special project with an excellent lineup and high hopes for success.

It's quite important to him.

It's a pity that I met a powerful director like Kim Won-seok and a well-connected person like Ji Kyung-won.

Chi Jingyuan responded with enthusiasm on his face. Through the exchange, he felt good about this brother and felt a little sorry for him in his heart.

But since they can sit here and audition, it means that they are all related, but their relationship has to be a little more formal. Everyone understands it tacitly, so there is no need to be embarrassed.

The four main creatives from the last production team participated in the audition this time, and the process was very similar. In addition to performing a few scenes of Park Hae Young, they also changed a few more costumes for the characters.

After the audition, Kim Won-seok, Ji Kyung-won, and the two actors, Lee Je-hoon, had some exchanges with each other. However, they did not confirm the role of the character on the spot, but asked them to go back and wait for the news.

I don’t know what Li Dixun’s mentality is like, but Chi Jingyuan is quite confident.

After the audition, I went to the company to work all afternoon and then returned to the dormitory in the evening.

"How was the audition?"

The few members who didn't go out seemed to be quite concerned about the results of Chi Jingyuan's audition. As soon as they saw him coming back, they looked over curiously. Some were embarrassed to speak, but some asked directly without any hesitation.

Although the EXO group has been on vacation for the past two days, many members have their own personal schedules. For example, Do Kyungsoo joined the group to film a movie yesterday afternoon. Those who were bored and bored in the dormitory watching TV so early, obviously

His qualifications are a bit unsatisfactory.

"Okay."

Waving his hand casually, Chi Jingyuan walked to the bathroom after changing his shoes: "I think it's OK, but the results haven't come out yet."

After casually chatting with them in the living room, Chi Jingyuan returned to his room. Do Kyungsoo and Oh Sehun were not there. After closing the door, he was the only one left in the huge dormitory, but he was happy and at ease.

Chi Jingyuan was originally going to read the textbook and review it, but as soon as he took out the book, he paused and seemed to remember something. Then he smiled and picked up his phone, pointed the camera at himself and took a random selfie without any accompanying text.

, and sent it directly to Bae Zhuhyun.

Every time the young lady has a nice new look, she always remembers to send a beautiful selfie for him to admire. Although Chi Jingyuan doesn't have this habit, it's not bad that he doesn't respond at all.

"You cut your hair?!

(round eyes)"

Red Velvet, who is not in the active period, should be quite free. Bae Zhuhyun responded quickly. Through a series of question marks, it can be seen that she was still surprised to see Chi Jingyuan's new look.

"(Smiley face)" Chi Jingyuan replied with an expression.

"When did you cut it? Why did it get cut so short?"

"I got my hair cut yesterday, for an audition for a new TV series, because the role required short hair."

"It's a new TV series. Did you pass the audition?"

"about there."

After Pei Zhuhyun sat cross-legged on her bed and sent a short message, she directly clicked on the selfie that Chi Jingyuan sent just now. She blinked and stared at this very novel short hair style. Although the selfie was lit

Normally, the angle was very casual, but it still made her smile and watch it for a long time. Finally, she clicked save and tapped the screen with her fingers: "Is the new drama confirmed? Chukayou! And this new look is also very handsome,

Moxi, the lights are just a little dim..."

Chi Jingyuan on the other side saw the message and immediately understood what the other party meant. He smiled and was about to say something when his phone suddenly rang. It was his manager Li Chenghuan calling.

Connect directly.

"Don't stop the young."

"Jingyuan, are you in the dormitory?" Li Chenghuan's voice was strong, and his tone sounded obviously excited.

"Yes, I just came back."

Hearing this tone, Chi Jingyuan had a premonition of what this brother was going to say on the phone. When he replied casually, he looked around, then stood up and went to the cabinet next to him to get a pack of chocolate bars, and sat down again.

I came back, opened my textbook, and started eating while talking on the phone.

"The company has just received news from the crew of "Signal", and the audition results have come out..." Li Chenghuan stopped abruptly here, obviously trying to sell it off.

"Well, boom..."

But Chi Jingyuan, who could tell from his voice, was very calm and didn't speak. He just ate a chocolate bar and made crunchy chewing sounds.

"Haha..." Li Chenghuan didn't feel embarrassed after failing to succeed. After laughing a few times, he directly told the news he had just received: "The results of the two auditions were great. I am the male lead in the drama "Signal".

The role of Park Hae Young is definitely ours, haha, I heard from my friends over there that the crew had almost decided on you during the first audition, and this time the audition was just a formality."

"Are you sure? I thought it would take a few days, which was fine."

Chi Jingyuan was slightly relieved when he heard that the matter was settled. During this period, he carefully memorized various scripts, figured out the characters, and prepared for the audition, which was considered to be the best result.

"Yes, it is said that Director Jin Yuanxi played a big role. Remember to call him and thank him when the time comes. We must maintain a good relationship in this regard."

"I know, brother, you don't have to say this."

"We can start negotiating the contract tomorrow. The company will send people to talk over there." At this point, Li Chenghuan's voice became a little deeper: "By the way, your salary this time should not be very high, although tvn

The support for A Story is huge and the investment is not small, but most of the resources are spent on filming. The salaries of the other two leading actors, Zhao Zhenxiong and Kim Hye Soo, are not very high..."

"I inquired about it and found out that Kim Hye-soo was very optimistic about the script and that she was the heroine who had lowered her salary."

"How much has it dropped?"

"I don't know the exact number, but it's about 55 million won per episode."
