"Congratulations, you found the treasure."
"This direct shot is so cool. Why didn't I notice it before? EXO is the best ZZZzzaaaa..."
"I thought it was a pity that the MV for "dope" was shot so well, but there was only one stage. I didn't expect that there was direct shooting... I just found out today that I am really unqualified as a Yuan fan."
"Almighty C position Ji Jingyuan fault top Ji Jingyuan born idol Ji Jingyuan golden maknae Ji Jingyuan human warm sun Ji Jingyuan genius composer, stage white moonlight"
"Ah ah, my Lord God of Light."
"Repeat it every day from now on to prevent puppy love!"
"Reminder from the front row, except for the maknae, the other members of Team K have their own direct shots on this "Dope" stage, and each one of them is amazing! All the sisters are helping to support it!"
Below the direct video, there are a lot of excited and happy messages from EXO fans, full of all kinds of rainbow farts, and the number of messages and likes are still rising at an extremely fast speed.
In addition to fans, many passers-by also commented. They were very impressed by Chi Jingyuan's stage charm in this direct shot, and they also left messages of praise.
Park Jiha read a circle of comments, left a comment herself and praised it, then quickly returned to it, dragging back the progress bar to read it again.
twice.
Three times.
It's obvious that Park Ji-ha used to be a philanthropist, but she only thinks that EXO is averagely good-looking, and the popular members are all handsome, so she doesn't have any other special feeling.
But now she feels as if she has been trapped. After watching, she always pulls the progress bar back to the front without finishing it. After seeing the dazzling scenes that make her heart beat faster, she often pauses and rewinds. , play, pause, go back, play.
'Why is this direct shot so magical...'
On May 31st, which was about to enter the last day of June, Chi Jingyuan's personal direct shot of the "dope" stage uploaded in early May suddenly became popular. There was some truth in the popularity, but there was more. It's indeed a bit baffling.
It makes sense because his stage performance is really great. Whether it's his dance moves or his personal stage charm, his eyes, gestures, etc. all really set the mood.
Coupled with some small stage moves and improvisations that were invisible in the live footage, most people who watched this direct shot left a very deep impression.
It's inexplicable because it's been almost a month since he posted this candid photo, and no one has noticed it. Before, only some fans who paid special attention would take a look at it, and the number of clicks was mediocre.
Obviously the content inside has not changed, but it suddenly exploded, leaving people a little confused as to what happened.
But the reason is not important. What is important is that Chi Jingyuan's direct shot has become really popular. The number of clicks is rising rapidly. Many people who saw it were surprised and started to post online in various groups. I discussed it with my friend Amway, and it gradually spread quickly.
…………
AsiaWorld-Expo, Hong Kong, backstage at the EXO First Tour concert on Hong Kong Island, the EXO members who are waiting to go on stage are looking at their mobile phones in the lounge and discussing the topic of direct photography.
Yesterday, Chi Kyung-yuan's direct shot just started to go viral on the Internet. SM company received the news immediately and held a meeting early in the morning to discuss how this incident would promote and benefit the popularity of XO's comeback, and to prepare the settings Some supporting publicity plans are prepared to take advantage of the popularity of direct photography to further increase the popularity of XO.
Most of the members of XO read news online every day. In addition to reading comments that praise themselves, several people also like to post messages themselves. Some also like to chat with their big fans.
Naturally, they all knew the news immediately. The topic they had been chatting with since the morning, apart from the debate about the World Cup, was this sudden hot shot.
"I saw that Jingyuan's direct shot had more than two million views yesterday, and today it has almost reached four million. Is it true?"
Park Chanyeol looked at YouTube on his phone and shouted loudly, his tone full of disbelief: "I remember that some time ago, I paid special attention to the direct shooting of our stage. Except for Jingyuan, who had 20,000 clicks, the rest of us It’s all around 10,000, and it’s increased so fast in less than two days?”
"Not only Jingyuan, the number of direct clicks for several of us has also been increasing, but it's just not as popular as his. My direct clicks have already exceeded 400,000."
Jin Junmyeon also said something with a smile while looking at his mobile phone, which had his own "dope" direct-shooting page open on it.
As Chi Jingyuan's direct shooting suddenly became popular, many people would click on other people's direct shooting links after watching his, and the direct shooting data of other members of the K team also increased accordingly, but with his own The data is still far behind.
"The fire may have become popular..." Chi Jingyuan looked at the people he often visited. Several large forums on the peninsula were discussing his topic of direct shooting, including EXO and his own fanclub, but it was less than two months ago. The heat is already very high.
He watched the fans' compliments for him for a long time, then smacked his lips in happiness and said: "It's just that our comeback period is almost over, "dope" is the first song, and it's useless to shoot straight up and hit too high. !”
Although his direct photography suddenly became popular, of course he was very happy that it was so popular, but Chi Jingyuan felt that it had no practical effect.
"This is a reflection of popularity, popularity! And it's also a very good publicity!"
Jin Junmian glanced at him speechlessly, and explained in a very knowledgeable way: "The singing program last month did not receive half as much attention and publicity as your direct-to-video program. You can check the music charts yourself. "dope" "How many places has it risen since yesterday?"
"Hmm..." Chi Jingyuan opened Melon and took a look and was quite surprised: "It has risen by more than twenty places. It has almost entered the inner ring, and it keeps rising."
"Dope", the first song, was released in early May. After ranking first, it naturally fell down. During the time when "Overdose" officially came back, it didn't rejuvenate for two days, and now it has slowly fallen to the forty or fifty.
According to this trend, it should continue to drop slowly until it is released from the list.
Unexpectedly, the sound source of "dope" has bucked the trend since yesterday, and the increase is very scary. If this momentum can continue for a few days, it is estimated that this song will return to the number one position.
Needless to say, this rise against the trend must be related to Chi Jingyuan's popularity in direct shooting.
"Right, I don't know why your direct shot became so popular all of a sudden. Although the shot is really handsome... but it can play such a good publicity role and bring so much heat and attention, I guess the company I will definitely take these direct shots for us more often in the future.”
Jin Junmian took a sip of water and predicted confidently: "And other companies will definitely follow suit, and there will be no cost anyway."

"Jingyuan, you are setting a trend." Do Kyungsoo, who was sitting next to him, turned his head, looked at Chi Jingyuan and patted his shoulder, using a pilgrim-like tone, very ceremonial. He waved his hand: "The person who started the era of direct photography?"
After tasting the title, Chi Jingyuan nodded with a smile:
"Sounds pretty awesome."
…………
The Hong Kong Island concert was held on time, and the 16,000 seats were packed. The entire venue was filled with fiery shouts from before the official start. The Hong Kong Island fans showed no less love for XO than those on the peninsula.
After the opening two songs, Chi Jingyuan's few authentic Cantonese words during the self-introduction session directly ignited the enthusiasm of the audience, and the screams wanted to burst the ceiling of the venue.
The atmosphere was very good. According to the process, it was close to the midfield. At this time, the stage for the song "angle" had just entered. Team M was singing on the stage. Five people from team K were sitting on a hanging basket and rose into the air. The venue was surrounded by fans waving and interacting, while Chi Jingyuan stood on the main stage and harmonized.
He stood there paddling, looking at the long fluorescent sea with a happy smile on his face. Even though he had seen this scene many times, it would give him a different feeling every time it reappeared in front of him.
"The white wind is surrounding you."
"You ask me where I'm from and I smile and say it's a secret."
When it came to this part of the sentence, Chi Jingyuan looked at the field casually and hummed twice into the microphone to make a harmony. However, before his voice could finish, Tong Kong suddenly tightened and looked towards the right side of the field.
A hanging basket with flashing lights that was slowly moving forward in mid-air suddenly fell down without any warning for some unknown reason.
According to the correct process, you should continue to move forward.
He couldn't see clearly who was on top of the hanging basket, but just below the hanging basket was a square of fans in the stands.
"ah……"
A piercing scream came. It was different from the cry for help, but a kind of frightened sound.
The sound wasn't too loud, and not many people noticed it. Team M was still singing, and Chi Jingyuan, who was witnessing it, trotted over quickly.
SM staff and many people from the concert also noticed it and quickly ran over from the aisle next to it.
When he reached the edge of the nearby stage, Xiumin and Baekhyun, who were closest, had also arrived. Chi Kyung-won took a quick look and saw that it was Do Kyung-soo who had fallen behind. At this time, he saw that the crowd of fans had already walked out. , half squatting on the ground seemed a little frightened, but it didn't seem to be anything serious.
Several fans in the crowd seemed to have been injured, but the lights were not on and they could not see clearly.
The staff quickly ran over, walked into the crowd, and quickly checked. Then with the help of others, they lifted out three fans and sent them to the hospital surrounded by SM staff.
The movement here also attracted the attention of other members, but because the big screen did not show a close-up, only the surrounding fans saw what happened, and most of the people further away did not notice it.
Under the direction of the director, the concert was not interrupted. Do Kyung-soo got up and went backstage to check. After confirming that there was no problem, he quickly returned to the stage.
Although the entire concert was not affected, it inadvertently cast a shadow over them.
…………
"What happened? Why did the hanging basket suddenly fall?"
After the concert, Kim Junmyeon asked immediately as he left the stage, his expression not very good.
They had already communicated with each other during the transition and knew what happened this time, but they didn't explain it in detail because of time constraints.
"I don't know either. It fell suddenly. I was scared to death..."
Do Kyung-soo patted his chest with some fear, but after half the concert, he seemed to have adjusted well. He also joked: "If something like this happens, will I be with Kyung-soo in the future?" Yuan doesn’t have to sit in this hanging basket anymore, he already has psychological shadow..."
At this moment, Li Chenghuan walked over quickly with a hurried expression, walked among the members and quickly explained: "The accident just now has been found out. It was because the equipment malfunctioned, causing him to fall without control. The subsequent processing companies are now following up.”
"In addition, the three fans who were sent to the hospital have recovered from their injuries. Fortunately, none of them had serious injuries. They will be fine after being repaired in the hospital... But this time the other fans were injured because of our problems. The company will definitely Some compensation will be made. In addition, suho..."
"Guess." Jin Junmian, who was handed over, responded quickly.
"You and. On behalf of our XO, go to the hospital to visit these three fans. Please hurry up and let Xuanjun take you there now."
"I got it, hyung." Jin Junmyeon and Do Kyungsoo looked at each other, nodded and went into the lounge to change clothes and get ready, then followed Lin Xuanjun and left first to go to the hospital.
Chi Jingyuan and others watched them leave, and then heard Li Chenghuan continue: "Don't worry, the company will definitely hold accountable this time, and will pay more attention to the safety of concerts in the future. Don't worry too much..."
…………
During dinner in the evening, Kim Junmyun and Do Kyungsoo came back. According to them, the fans were really fine. They were very excited after seeing them visiting on behalf of EXO. One even said that they were beaten in exchange for peace. The chance to get up close and personal with an idol is well worth it.
This... I can only say thank you for your support.
This accident was reported as news the next day. It didn't attract much attention because there was no serious accident. However, it did serve as a reminder to the company to pay more attention to safety.
However, bad luck did not seem to leave because of this incident. An accident occurred again at EXO's second concert on June 2. Tao accidentally fell to the side while EXO was chatting with fans during the midfield. On the elevator that has descended.
Fortunately, the height of the elevator did not drop too low at that time. He just fell down and was not injured. After a minute, he slowly went up again.
If the elevator had completely fallen, things would be really serious.
But this was not a problem with the machine, but rather with his own lack of attention.
In general, if these two interludes were not included, this concert in Hong Kong Island would be considered a success. The atmosphere of both concerts was very good, and the fans who watched it were also very satisfied and rated it very highly.
It's just that it's really not a good sign that such unexpected gaps happen continuously.
After finishing their trip to Hong Kong Island, EXO also flew back to the peninsula in the early morning of June 3rd.
…………
In the new girl group planning practice room on the second floor of the SM building, seven or eight girls who had just finished their afternoon practice were exercising, gathering in twos and threes and discussing quietly.
"Unnie, do you want to go to dinner together?"
When Park Soo-young saw Bae Joo-hyun, Kang Seul-gi and Son Seung-wan who were gathering together to whisper a few words before preparing to leave, they took the initiative to lean over and extend an invitation.
Jin Yilin next to her blinked her eyes and quietly moved a few steps over.
This girl group project has gone through several rounds of screening. The current candidates are only the few people in the practice room. Everyone knows who is good at it, who is more valued by the company, and who has the greatest chance of debuting. .
There are currently several female trainees who have stood out, and the company has recently begun to focus on training a few of them. The original small groups of trainees in the preliminary group have been basically broken up because some people kept quitting. Now The three people with the largest number of people in the small group are Bae Zhuhyun.
And it just so happens that the three of them are still the company's key training targets, and there is a high possibility that they will appear on the final debut list.
Some people are jealous, and some people naturally want to get closer.
Pei Zhuxuan glanced at her and pursed her lips without saying anything, while Jiang Seulqi smiled sheepishly: "Miah, today is really unlucky. We made an appointment with Kazuto to have dinner together at noon."
"Oh, that's great. Let's do it next time." Park Xiurong smoothed her hair and smiled, her expression darkened slightly. Although her smile was still quite sweet, she looked a little embarrassed when she was declined when she took the initiative to invite.
She thought for a while and then asked out of curiosity: "Are you friends with Ernies?"
Jiang Seulqi hesitated after hearing this and didn't want to say it at first, but after looking at Park Sooyoung's expression, she still said in a low voice:
"Nei, Jingyuan is back today."
"Is it EXO's Yuan sunbaenim?" Park Soo Young was a little surprised.
Jin Yelin, whose cat was next to her, also blinked.
Chi Jingyuan has a great reputation in the company, and some rumors about the 'royal family' are also very mysterious. Many people are very interested in him, especially now that EXO is at its peak. As the most popular member of the team, he has He is the object of admiration of many trainees, and no one has mentioned the bad reputation of his debut.
It is no secret among the trainees that Jiang Seulqi and Ji Jingyuan know each other and have a good relationship. They have also benefited from it more or less, and everyone has discussed it many times in private. , except for jealousy, most of them are sour and strange.
Being able to get to know and have a good relationship with senior artists who debuted in the company, especially popular artists, while still a trainee is really an enviable thing.
Not to mention Chi Jingyuan.
In fact, when EXO members were still trainees before their debut, many of these female trainees knew each other and were quite familiar with them. During the month-end assessment, they even formed a temporary group and performed on stage.
However, as EXO debuted, became popular, and became more and more busy, there was naturally a clear dividing line between debut artists and trainees. Even if they knew each other before, they don't have much contact now.
Unless the relationship is really good, or he has other meanings for you and wants to date you.
"Um."
Jiang Seulqi nodded slightly, squinted her eyes and smiled at Park Xiurong: "Xiurong, Unnie will treat you to dinner tomorrow..."
"I'm leaving."
