Chapter 67 What is TOP?(1/2)

"Why is it so popular?"

Li Xiuman looked at several twice hot search terms with burning signs on the webpage in front of him, as well as the reports made by some marketing department employees in front of him. He frowned with a surprised expression. His small eyes under the rimless glasses were somewhat disobedient.

His calmness and wisdom made him feel a little bad.

Twice suddenly became popular, and "cheer up" seemed to be a big hit this week. He had thought about and analyzed it several times, but he always felt that his rich experience and judgment in the past had lost their effect.

He is very clear about the past and present of the song "cheer up" and how he came to JYP to be the lead singer of Twice. He still remembers what he did in front of Ji Jingyuan after listening to this song.

I remember the comments and words spoken very clearly.

"Jingyuan, you thought so too at first, about this song?"

As he spoke, he looked at Chi Jingyuan, who was holding a cup of coffee and sipping it, his eyes flashing as if he was seeking approval.

"Um……"

Chi Jingyuan pondered for two seconds before saying very honestly: "Actually, I didn't have much experience with girl group songs before, nor did I do any analysis of the market and style. That would make me just think that this song

Relatively average, but not to the point of being a useless song... But Teacher Li Xiuman and several musicians in the company said that later..."

This is true. After he wrote this song, his evaluation was just average, with no highlights, but it should still be usable, so later he approached Lee Soo Man and wanted to ask him if this song was suitable for the company's girl group.

, and then I was greatly affected after hearing the other party’s comments.

As he spoke, he glanced at Director Nim, who was smiling but with a slightly dark face. He coughed lightly and ended the topic. He did not continue to dwell on this issue, but instead tried to explain to the other party:

"But Teacher Lee Soo Man is right. I also feel that the company's girl group is not suitable for the style of this song... And when Jinying hyung asked me to invite him to sing, I casually handed it over to him... Then he suddenly

It was said that this song would be the main feature, but I was actually quite surprised."

"Well……"

Li Xiuman picked up the tea cup and took a sip. After swallowing the tea, Li Xiuman took a deep breath and exhaled a long breath, as if to get rid of all the doubts and embarrassment in his heart. Then he put the cup down with a bang, and then turned it up in front of him.

Several people who had just received the recent market report couldn't help but shook their heads: "Looking at the data and market reaction in the past few days, JYP is a girl group that has become popular. It is unusually popular. It is rare to see people paying attention to a girl group.

I’m so interested in the song “cheer up” and it’s really…”

"Songs do have certain reasons, but I think more of them have to do with people."

"Human? You mean the members of Twice?" Li Xiuman closed her eyes and looked over.

"Well, the popularity of the song "Cheer Up" is indeed a bit unexpected. Let alone us, JYP actually didn't expect it at all. When Jinying hyung called me to thank me the day before yesterday, he looked obviously unhappy.

Very surprised..."

Chi Jingyuan picked up the oil-based pen placed next to him and tried to spin it, but he couldn't control it and it flew away and hit the right side of the table with a bang. He ignored Li Xiuman's glance, which was very natural.

He shrugged and continued: "I think it has a lot to do with the members of the group. Many members of Twice are very suitable for the style of this song. They have digested the cute energy style of transformation very well. The quality of the members themselves is very high, so,

It can be said that people and songs achieve each other... If it were sung by a different girl group, if a few people or choreographers were changed, there probably wouldn't be such an explosive effect."

"And they have accumulated a lot of popularity before... It can be seen through pre-sales... Coupled with the accidental appearance of 'shyshyshy' and the crazy schedule every day, it is understandable that they have become popular."

"Um……"

After listening carefully, Lee Soo Man thought for a few seconds and then slowly nodded in agreement: "Yes, I have studied the girl group Twice, and it is indeed the essence of JYP's trainees in recent years. You are right, Jingyuan, some of the songs

The singer and the singer achieve each other's success, just like "Roar", it feels different when it's sung by another person,

"Um……"

Chi Jingyuan nodded at you first, then suddenly blinked, narrowed his eyes and smiled shyly: "But teacher, I think "Roar" and "Cheer Up" are different, "Roar"...

…Whoever sings it will be popular.”

Even now, Chi Jingyuan does not think "Cheer Up" is an outstanding song. Instead, he attributes the success of the song to Twice himself.

But "Roar" is one of the most satisfying boy band songs that Chi Jingyuan has ever produced, with its impactful concept of campus suits and uniforms, stylish choreography and formation, and groundbreaking one-shot MV and stage.

Everything takes the two points of handsomeness and youth to the extreme. Even though the song itself is very brainwashing, it also brings all fans a visual experience that can be said to be the best in history. Looking back now, it is still timeless, even if this song

If it were released today and performed by a boy band, he believes it would still be a hit.

It's just that EXO maximized the charm of this song because of its own configuration and appearance.

"hehe……"

Hearing Chi Jingyuan's somewhat conceited tone, Li Xiuman smiled and shook his head, without refuting his point of view. He pouted and flipped through the documents in front of him, his face became a little more serious: "The recent market is really

It's very hot... Fortunately, you guys are coming back soon. The decision to change the plan and add a prelude song was really the right one, otherwise..."

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Li Xiuman did not finish speaking, but Chi Jingyuan certainly understood what he meant.

Chi Jingyuan frowned slightly and seemed a little worried: "Ah Ni, "Cheer Up" is so popular now, we really may not be able to beat them..."

Before Chi Jingyuan finished speaking, he looked up and found Li Xiuman looking at him with a smile. The look in his shining smile made him a little unable to continue acting. The two looked at each other and laughed together.

.

"The comeback announcement will be made the day after tomorrow. Please make sure you say goodbye when you go back..." Lee Soo Man waved his hand in a way that meant he was scolding Fang Qiu. He, and even the entire SM, now have absolute confidence in EXO.

Then he remembered something again and asked: "By the way, Jingyuan, have you thought about the song in the 'Subway' project? According to the progress, you have to prepare one month in advance at the latest. Do you want to

Do you want to go solo or collaborate with someone?"

"Not yet..." Chi Jingyuan raised his eyes, thought for a moment, and shook his head: "There are no suitable songs in the music library. As for... I should find someone to collaborate with."

"If you don't have a clue, the company has a lot of songs in stock. You can listen to them when you have time. You can also collect songs from musicians. If you have a composer you like and appreciate, remember to mention it. Many composers want to

Working with you..." Lee Soo Man folded the documents in front of him, picked them up, and put them in order on the desktop. At the same time, he said, "The same goes for your solo debut songs. Now you have to start preparing in advance.

Already."

"So early? Isn't it planned for the end of the year?" Chi Jingyuan blinked. It was only May, and he felt it was a little early.

"Get ready early." Li Xiuman looked over and smiled, her little eyes narrowed and she looked very kind: "You are the first solo member of XO, so of course you have a good start."

"Well, I understand."



On May 1st, SM Entertainment officially announced that its group EXO will release its third full-length album in June this year.

At the same time, before the official comeback, the prelude song "fire" will be released on May 12, and the pre-order time for the regular album is to be determined.

In addition to the official comeback trailer, SM also released the first nine-member teaser photo of "Fire". The background of the photo is deserted and dark. In the light composition, the nine EXO members wearing different costumes stand in a row on the right side, and on the left side

The blazing fire on the opposite side is facing each other, and the light of the flames is reflected in everyone's eyes. The flames on both sides of the photo and the members form an inexplicable contrast. The new 'EXO' logo made of flames in the middle and lower part gives the whole photo

The photo is tinged with a mysterious and fiery atmosphere.

Although a lot of news has been leaked before, including Chi Jingyuan's own Instagram post of "recording", SM's official announcement immediately became the headline of today's entertainment section, with several flaming posts

The #EXO entry reached the top in a very short period of time, directly suppressing the likes of Rabbit Gas, and the number of fans, attention, and nationality were fully demonstrated.

"Ahhhhhh, the oppas are finally coming back!"

"This is the best news I heard today! I have been waiting for more than half a year. Although it is just a preview song, I feel that the quality and grade of this trailer clearly separates it from other groups."

"This teaser photo is really cool and has a lot of sense. Yuan and Chanyeol really beat me to it."

"Is the prelude song still written by Yuan Oppa? Is the concept this time flame? Ahhhh, I really can't wait. This teaser photo and concept are so attractive to me. Can you put some more material out there!"

"Hurry up and come back. I really don't want to see the ugly girl Lin Nayeon and the group Twice become so arrogant. Their fans are really excited recently. I really want those people to see what it means to be a real TOP!"

"Oppa is coming back! shyshyshy~"

Just announcing the time for their comeback and releasing a teaser photo of the prelude song caused a huge response, and the skyrocketing popularity also made many people feel the current popularity of EXO vividly again.

Some idol groups who had originally planned to release songs at the same time as EXO immediately turned pale. Looking at the heated discussion on the Internet, they just felt a lump of air in their chests and didn't know what to say.



Amidst all the confusion, as time enters May, Twice, who has returned for the second week, has already taken on a trend, with fans and popularity increasing rapidly. Many program groups have sent them program invitations, and nine

The members also worked hard and ran the schedule like crazy.

"Cheer Up" is performing better and better on the music charts, and at the same time, especially the part "shyshyshy" is becoming more and more popular. After Chi Jingyuan, there have been several popular artists and fans.

Dou imitated this sentence in public places on the show and even on his own SNS, such as Park Shin Hye, Park Chanyeol, Kim So Hyun, etc., and even BigBang's G-Dragon uploaded a photo of shoes on his Instagram,

Caption: "Put on new shoes, shyshyshy~"

G-Dragon is different from Chi Kyung-won. He has nothing to do with Twice. He just likes this meme and finds it interesting before posting it. It also proves that this "shyshyshy" sentence that seems to have no highlights is interpreted by Minazaki Saka.

It really has a unique charm.

And on May 3rd, a hot search suddenly rushed to the forefront of the entertainment sections of many websites, instantly attracting the attention of most passers-by, and for the second time in a short period of time, it snatched away a lot of information about twice and

attention of other combinations.

The protagonist of this hot search is from another popular A-list girl group, AOA.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! In order to warm up for AOA’s upcoming comeback in May, the economic company FNC and On Style collaborated to produce a group variety show for AOA, similar to last year’s Girls’ Generation’s “Channel Girls’ Generation”

Similar, the name is "Channel AOA"

This variety show officially started broadcasting on April 12, with one episode a week. Although it is not very popular, in addition to being talked about by fans, it has also attracted many passers-by to watch, which is considered to have attracted a wave of fans. There have been no problems before.

, but when the fourth episode was broadcast on the 3rd today, a huge mess suddenly occurred.

In this episode of the group review, when captains Shin Ji-min and Kim Seol-hyun participated in a mini-game of guessing historical figures by looking at photos, neither of them could recognize Ahn Jung-geun, the patriotic martyr of the Korean Peninsula.
