"Don't stop the toilet when it's young." Chi Jingyuan lowered the toilet lid and sat on it, eyes closed and head hanging, holding the phone in one hand and gently rubbing his temples with the other.
I was quite tired today, and when I was about to fall asleep, I was suddenly woken up and felt a little out of sorts.
"Have you rested?" Zheng Xiujing's voice on the phone still sounded energetic at such a late hour. Her speech speed was obviously a bit fast and she seemed to be in a hurry, but she still said hello first.
"Yeah." Chi Jingyuan responded softly.
"..." Hearing that Chi Jingyuan had gone to sleep, Zheng Xiujing paused for a moment. After hearing the sound of breathing for a few seconds, she opened her mouth again: "It's indeed a bit late... That's right. Mainly because I have something to ask. For a moment, you are..."
She was a little speechless when she said this, as if she was hesitating how to speak.
However, when she was organizing her words, Chi Jingyuan took the initiative to speak out for her: "Is it about you, Ernie?"
"How do you know?" She sounded surprised, obviously not expecting Chi Jingyuan to know. Soon she realized it after thinking about it. Her breathing suddenly became faster, and her tone also sped up: "Who is following Are you talking about it? Kim Taeyeon or Lee Soon Kyu? Did they say a lot of bad things about me, Unnie, to you? Aisi and the others..."
She knew that Chi Kyung-won was very close to several people from SNSD, and after a little bit of thinking, she figured out who probably told him in advance, and when she mentioned Kim Taeyeon and other Girls' Generation members, Jung Soo-jung's anger seemed to rise all of a sudden. , I didn’t use any honorifics on the phone, I called these sisters I was quite familiar with before by their names, and couldn’t help but curse in the end.
Chi Jingyuan could hear the uncontrollable anger in her heart through the phone.
"Jingyuan, I'm telling you, don't believe them. They are just jealous of the good brand that I, Ernie, have launched recently. They even joined forces with the company to say bad things about me, Ernie, a few days ago, and..."
As if she was afraid that Chi Jingyuan would be misled by others, Jessica talked anxiously, telling all the conflicts between Jessica and Girls' Generation from her perspective, fearing that Chi Jingyuan would preconceptions about this matter. Jessica's question.
There is nothing wrong with Jessica in Jung Soo Jung's words. All the problems are caused by the other eight people from SNSD and SM. They are jealous and covet the career that Unnie has finally built. They clearly agreed on things before and now they and the company They all suddenly changed their minds.
The general story of what she said was somewhat similar to what Sunny told him two days ago, but it was also very different in some places.
Chi Jingyuan, who is listening, can also understand that everyone looks at the problem in a completely different way and angle due to their different positions. What Sunny said is objective and unclear, and as Jung Soo-yeon's biological sister, Jung Soo-jung Ernie should naturally be biased towards him, there is no problem.
But in fact, who is right and who is wrong is not important at all to Chi Jingyuan, and it actually has little to do with him.
After Zheng Xiujing talked for a long time, she gradually stopped. Listening to the silence on Chi Jingyuan's side on the phone, she couldn't help but fall silent. After a while, she softly said, "Miah Nei."
…………
Chi Jingyuan walked out of the bathroom and returned to the bed to lie down.
The phone call just now seemed a bit unpleasant.
If you are being bullied by SM or other senior executives of other companies, Chi Jingyuan can easily handle it, or you want some resources, whether it is song resources, or even film and television resources that are difficult to contact and require a lot of connections. He can also get it, which is actually not a big problem.
But he was really a bit over the top to keep Jessica from leaving SM.
Now it's obvious that apart from SM, Girls' Generation has internal problems as well. He doesn't have the ability or skill to get these seductive sisters back together.
Just like EXO, there is no point in repairing the cracks once they occur.
In fact, Zheng Xiujing didn't know the specific background of Ji Jingyuan. She only learned something about his family's very poor conditions while filming "The Heirs".
Wrong, after all, she could have such a big luxury villa in LA and she didn't live there much when she was in school alone. She could get it if she wanted, but as for the energy and connections, she had no idea at all, so she relied solely on her own guesses.
If Zheng Xiujing asked Chi Jingyuan to take care of her career with Ernie, it could actually be done, but Zheng Xiujing didn't even mention it. Seeing that he didn't agree to her previous request, she left a little angry and hung up the phone.
"Ah."
Chi Jingyuan smiled and opened his mouth slightly and licked his lower lips. Next to him, Wu Shixun's moderate snoring came, which was particularly eye-catching in the quiet dormitory. He glanced over there and shook his head with a smile. At the bedside.
I didn't have much of a relationship with him originally, and I just sighed about this kind of thing, and I wouldn't let it affect my emotions.
sleep!
The day after that was uneventful and nothing happened. Chi Jingyuan went about filming on the set step by step. It was uneventful until he went to bed at night.
But when Chi Kyung-won got up the next day and was still a little sleepy on the way to work in the nanny's car, he heard Park Jae-hyun talk about Jung Soo-yeon's withdrawal from the group.
"In the early morning?" He asked in surprise.
"Yes, the announcement was posted on Xia Guo's scarf." Park Jae-hyun nodded to confirm that the message was correct.
Chi Jingyuan took out his mobile phone.
In the early morning of September 30, Jessica posted a long statement on Xia Guo's scarf. In summary, she said that she was withdrawn from the group while preparing for activities and felt very confused.
At first, many people thought her account had been stolen and didn't believe it at all. It wasn't until SM issued an announcement confirming it seven hours later, and roughly explained the reasons, and pushed out all the errors, that they finally found out that it was. Real things.
No need to think about it, she is definitely the one making the headlines today. Jessica was not the top member of SNSD, but she was also a member of the popular circle. Leaving Girls' Generation, which had just renewed her contract, in this way, this kind of breaking news is worse than Im Yoona's. The exposure of the relationship is even more exciting, and it has dropped a bombshell to all SNSD fans in the peninsula and even in Asia.
No one paid much attention to Li Byung-hun's matter immediately, and no one on the Internet immediately discussed whether he would need to take medicine for how long.
The news was so hot that even early in the morning, when the sky was still dark, Chi Jingyuan had just arrived at Seoul Plaza and was about to go to work on the crew when he was stopped by the reporter who came here squatting here who knows how early. The interview microphone was extended to The boss loudly asked Chi Jingyuan’s opinion on SNSD’s withdrawal from the group and if he had any inside information.
He was really confused after being stopped.
No, what are you asking about Girls’ Generation? If you ask me about Luhan, I'd really like it.
"..." Chi Jingyuan didn't say a word. With Park Jae-hyun and Cui Zhichang struggling to stop the reporters for protection, Chi Jingyuan quickly walked into Seoul Plaza with his head lowered.
After arriving at the set, he found that many people were also talking about the news. When they saw Chi Jingyuan arriving, their eyes lit up, and they quickly greeted him and wanted to find out the inside story from him.
It’s also been since I’ve been in the group for a long time, and everyone has become quite familiar with it every day, and these people don’t shy away from it, otherwise they wouldn’t be so careless.
There must be an inside story, but of course Chi Kyung-yuan couldn't say anything. He could only smile bitterly and express that he was also very surprised when he just found out. EXO and Girls' Generation are not the same managers in the company, and he was on the set during this period. What happened specifically? He didn't know what the situation was.
These people were making noises, and of course they couldn't really want to hear any inside information from Chi Jingyuan. After joking for a while, they began to make various speculations about the withdrawal from the group in front of him, without any hesitation. Avoid him, SM's popular fried chicken.
It’s really real enough.
The most interesting thing is that Chi Jingyuan knew that Girls' Generation would hold a fan meeting in Pengcheng today, and he didn't know what would happen when something like this suddenly happened today.
Except for the people who eat melon from all walks of life
In addition, the ones who were hurt the most were naturally the Sons who had just been excited for two days because all members had renewed their contracts. As soon as this news came out, the fans of SNSD were shattered. They were wailing, angry, desperate and other emotions. of fans.
Chi Jingyuan couldn't bear to see it.
However, the commotion outside did not affect the crew of "Misborn" who were filming. In addition to many people chatting during the break, everyone was of course very serious when they were working. If Jin got distracted because of such gossip, Won Seok rushed up to teach him a lesson.
Even during the break, Chi Jingyuan actually didn't pay much attention to this matter, because he had personally experienced members quitting the group, and to be honest, he had no interest in such similar things.
Compared to Jessica's withdrawal from the group, Chi Kyung Yuan is actually more concerned about, or pays more attention to, another piece of news that he just learned about.
Lee Soo Man's wife also died of cancer today.
According to Ji Jingyuan's understanding, his wife was diagnosed with cancer the year before last and underwent major surgery last year. However, her condition suddenly worsened this year. Therefore, Li Xiuman has not managed the company for almost the entire 14 years this year but will go through I put all my focus on taking care of my family, but I didn’t expect that I still couldn’t get over it.
He said that before coming here during the Chinese New Year, Chi Jingyuan met Li Xiuman's wife once when he visited his home.
After thinking about it briefly during dinner in the evening, Chi Jingyuan took out his phone and called Li Xiuman.
The other party was not very surprised when he received Chi Jingyuan's call. It seemed that Li Xiuman knew Chi Jingyuan quite well and had a hunch that he would call.
"Jingyuan, I'm very happy to receive your call."
He said he was happy, but Li Xiuman's voice sounded calmer, and he didn't seem too sad about his wife's death.
Of course, it just sounds like it.
"That's right, Teacher Lee Soo Man. In fact, I should have gone to visit before."
"There is no need, it is enough to have this intention." Li Xiuman smiled very softly, and then said with a hint of apology: "But I have decided not to inform others about the funeral, and it will be left to our own family. I hope you can understand, Jingyuan, as I send her off for the last time."
"Of course, everything depends on your wishes."
After finishing the business in a few words, Li Xiuman did not hang up the phone directly, but chatted with Chi Jingyuan about work matters. "Speaking of which, I heard from the company's subordinates that XO's recent situation should not be very good, right? "
"It's a little bit, because Luhan's departure from the team was suspended for a long time, and..." Chi Jingyuan hesitated for a moment, but did not go on to talk about the things between the members that he originally wanted to mention. , but turned to the topic of comeback: "The members, including me, are actually looking forward to and eager for the next comeback. After all, the previous events have a great impact."
"Haha, I know, don't worry, the company has a very complete plan for XO. After a while, I will go back to the company to personally handle the XO affairs after the things on my side are less busy. When the time comes, Jingyuan, please remember to join in. Your mission is also very important."
Lee Soo Man directly promised on the phone to return and participate in the album with Ji Kyung Won, and it was obvious that although he had no time to manage the company, he was basically aware of what happened in SM, and it was not as what some people imagined. That makes his eyes black.
"I understand, then I won't disturb Teacher Li Xiuman."
After hanging up the phone, Chi Jingyuan pursed his lips. Li Xiuman's calmness was a bit beyond his expectation.
I really underestimated him.
