Chapter 969 Reward
When the popularity of Ji Jingyuan's solo debut was at its highest, the title song teaser video released by SM three days in advance as usual was naturally opened by countless long-awaited fans and passers-by at the first time.
"..."
After a short buffer, the picture appeared and amazed countless viewers.
The warm sunlight, bright colors, clean road surface, colorful background wall, and cute graffiti on the wall, the whole shot makes people feel a relaxed and sunny atmosphere at first glance.
At the same time, a clear and melodious piano accompaniment sounded, and along with the tapping of the piano keys, Chi Jingyuan's figure appeared in the camera, walking from left to right on the concrete road.
Either stride like a meteor, or walk slowly, or run straight away.
At the same time, as he continued to walk or run, with the accompaniment of the piano, the light and the surrounding scenery kept changing. It started with a warm morning, then at noon the direct sunlight made the shadows on the wall particularly clear, then it turned into dusk, and finally into a moonlit night.
Every time the light changes, his clothes change accordingly, either a sweatshirt or jeans, but they are all lighter in color, very young and fashionable. The ever-changing light and clothing seem to represent the day from morning to night, or the changing temperatures of youth.
In the middle ten seconds or so, there is a flash of a girl, who is either walking side by side with Chi Jingyuan or chasing and playing with him on the road, giving the feeling of a young couple flirting...but in just two or three seconds, she disappears after a few shots.
Although there were only two shots and only her side profile was shown, it attracted a lot of people's attention... because even from the side, you can tell that this girl has a pretty good figure.
The piano accompaniment was very refreshing, Chi Jingyuan was dressed very handsomely and energetically, and the overall relaxed atmosphere made the audience feel that their mood seemed to have improved a lot, as if they were watching a edited stage play.
...But as they listened, the audience realized something was wrong, because the piano accompaniment was just a short piece repeated back and forth from beginning to end. Although it sounded nice, they had been looking forward to this title song for so long, and watched this trailer just to listen to the sound source in the trailer, to listen to the main song and the chorus to see if it was good...but in the end, there was only a piece of piano after all the waiting, which made the fans, who had been looking forward to seeing the quality of Chi Jingyuan's title song for a long time, and even the haters, start scratching their heads anxiously.
It was not until the 20-second trailer was about to end and the sky turned into moonlight and the screen darkened that a song with a hint of electronic music came:
"We once loved each other, and our encounter..."
"This is enough……"
As soon as the song appeared, countless audiences perked up and pricked up their ears. Some people even moved closer to the computer screen involuntarily because they couldn't hear it clearly.
Because even though there are only two sentences, the melody is very catchy and sounds great.
It’s a pity that the singing voice was not loud and was getting smaller and smaller. By the last sentence, it had gradually faded and could not be heard clearly. And just when everyone was still enjoying it and following the last tune, the picture suddenly went black and a huge SM logo appeared on the screen.
Immediately, many people who had only caught a glimpse and had not heard enough cursed in their hearts... They had never hated the name of SM as much as they did at this moment.
After a round of complaints, many people couldn't help but rewind the trailer and watch it again, while those who didn't watch it again couldn't help but recall the brief feeling of lightness that penetrated the screen.
As soon as the trailer was uploaded, the number of clicks was instantly guaranteed, and various comments began to scroll across the screen.
"Shit, what on earth does this trailer preview? Except for the last line, which is just a repetitive piano chord, I want to listen to a song!"
"The last line is so nice, is it the chorus? Even though it's only one line, I already know how to sing it. It's really addictive."
"I really like the style of this trailer. It's sunny, lively, relaxed and handsome. It reminds me of the sea, youth, sandbanks and the beach in Hawaii. The warm setting sun, the red sunset and the bright moonlight. The different changes in light also symbolize the ups and downs of youth. The last sentence is the finishing touch. The super refined singing voice matches this trailer. It's simply a work of art!"
"Ahhh, this is so beautiful. I can't wait. Please release the audio source soon. Che bless!~"
"The trailer is very good, and it makes people feel relaxed. Yuan is also very handsome, and the last two or three sentences are also very catchy. The song should be of excellent quality. But what I am most concerned about is... who is the heroine? Is it a female idol?"
"I also want to know who she is!"
…………
“Is this Jimin?”
“What a beautiful shot.”
In a classroom in the old SM building, several female trainees gathered around a mobile phone, watching the "Love Scenario" trailer that had just finished playing. Everyone had a look of surprise on their face, and at the same time, they couldn't help but glance sideways at the girl who was surrounded by the crowd.
How could they not recognize the busty girl in the trailer if others didn’t?
Looking at Liu Zhimin in the middle, envy was evident on everyone's face or in everyone's eyes... Before, I only knew that she participated in the shooting of Chi Jingyuan's MV, but I didn't see the finished product, so I didn't have much feeling.
But at this moment, seeing the ordinary trainees around me, who were originally no different from me, suddenly appear in the MV of the TOP idol, being photographed so beautifully, with such a good body, and being discussed by so many people online, I suddenly had a strong sense of reality.
Although it was just a preview, the moment it was released, they felt that Liu Zhimin seemed a little different from others.
Liu Zhimin, who was sitting in the middle, was praised by a group of people next to her. She had just watched the footage of herself, and she felt proud but reserved. She tried hard to hold back her laughter, wanting to appear indifferent to fame and fortune.
This is what she learned from Chi Jingyuan... It's a pity that her skills are so inferior. She held her breath for a long time with the corners of her mouth raised to the sky, and her chest shook with every breath, as if she was showing off something on behalf of her master.
After filming the MV, she returned to Seoul from LA. She had two meetings with the company and listened to the promotional strategy after the MV was released. She was also praised several times in person by Lee Mi Joo and other managers who managed the trainees. After she returned to the ranks of trainees, she felt that the atmosphere around her was a little strange.
The other girls seemed to be certain that she would be able to debut in the future. All of a sudden, she, who had not been very noticeable among the girls before, immediately became the object of many people's dissatisfaction. They envied her, they were jealous, they excluded her, they were sarcastic and said sour words.
But he seemed to be afraid of something and did not dare to confront him face to face.
The reason why she didn't dare was because... because Liu Zhimin was also very smart. After returning from LA, she vaguely expressed her familiarity with Chi Jingyuan in the chat with other female trainees. She repeated the content of their chat while joking, and talked about the interesting things and experiences of those days, implying that she and Chi Jingyuan had a good relationship unconsciously.
Even when her close friends privately teased and asked her "Is he handsome, are you attracted, are you ambiguous?", she did not clarify it explicitly. Instead, she hummed a few times in a sophisticated manner, neither admitting nor denying it.
But the more she behaves like this, the more people around her will imagine things.
Then, feeling the surprised and envious gazes from those around him, Liu Zhimin remained calm but felt extremely comfortable in his heart.
Humph, who doesn’t have some vanity?
Besides... we have a very good relationship~
Unfortunately, the two haven't been in touch since returning from LA. She tried to send him a text message, but when there was no reply, she seemed to sense something and stopped harassing him, returning to being a boring trainee again.
But while practicing again, I couldn't calm down. I kept thinking about those days in LA and Chi Jingyuan.
"This preview doesn't reveal too much... By the way, Jimin, you must have heard the source of the song. You didn't say much when I asked you before. Is it good or not?"
After discussing enviously for a while, several girls asked her with great curiosity, which also brought Liu Zhimin back to her senses from what she was thinking about.
"It sounds good, qingjia, qingjia sounds good."
She nodded seriously, and the flesh on her head and chest shook twice.
This is not because she has a filter or because she participated in the show, but because she truly thinks that the song "Love Scenario" is one of the best Kpop songs she has ever heard.
If you add a filter... then there is no other.
“Is it really that nice?”
"It must be right. The last line of the trailer is so nice, 'We once loved each other, and we met'..."
"I heard that the pre-sale sales were very good this time. If the song is also a hit, how much will it sell for..."
The female trainees next to them were chattering. For them, Chi Jingyuan, a top senior in the same company, has always been one of the most admired people in the circle, and topics about him have always been very hot.
But Liu Zhimin did not participate in it. His mind was already wandering. He sat in the middle holding his phone in a daze.
After a while, she seemed to have made up her mind. She bit her lips, straightened her chest, and raised her head. She picked up her phone and started typing quickly. She sent a text message to Chi Jingyuan: "Oppa, I heard that the album is selling very well. How many pre-sales are there now?"
After sending the message, she became a little nervous... He didn't reply to her last text message, and after being quiet for several days, she took this opportunity to test him again. If he still didn't reply this time, then it would be really bad.
However, Liu Zhimin's worries did not last long. Chi Jingyuan might be free. After a while, her phone vibrated and the expected reply came.
"270."
Although there was only a number and no extra words, Liu Zhimin's face lit up as if he had won a battle. He stood up from his seat with a raised mouth, ignoring the people around him and took a step to the side, tapping the screen with his mind jumping.
"270 million? That much? This should be the highest record, right?"
"It's selling so well... then Oppa, can you give me some credit for it... even a little bit of credit is fine!"
"Well, I guess you do." Chi Jingyuan seemed to be in a good mood and started joking with her.
"Then~" Liu Zhimin's eyes turned smartly:
"Oppa, would you like to give me a little reward~"
