"I'm coming!"
Early in the morning on the 19th, when Chi Jingyuan and his manager arrived at Seoul Plaza, they were blocked by fans squatting there. When they saw Chi Jingyuan who was about to go in to work, a group of people suddenly shouted and cheered. The entrance to the shopping mall in the early morning added a lot of noise and hustle and bustle.
After finishing the family concert in Shanghai yesterday, Chi Jingyuan rushed back to the peninsula overnight with his assistant and manager because he had to hurry up and return to the set this morning.
The other members of EXO will not get back on the plane until noon today.
"Oppa, the Zhang Kelai you played is so handsome."
"You acted really well, my mother has been praising you all the time..."
The fans who were surrounding me all spoke one after another, making it very lively with your words and my words.
Chi Jingyuan smiled and nodded, while taking a casual glance, he found that in addition to the younger fans, there were also a few women with relatively unfamiliar faces. They obviously didn't look like high school students anymore, and they looked like they were dressed or dressed. He is from the second half of his twenties.
It felt a little strange for an office worker of his age to come here so early and squat on him... Chi Jingyuan felt a little strange.
Could it be because of the "Misheng" broadcast two days ago? It's only been two episodes...
"Have you all watched it?" Chi Jingyuan waved hello and asked with a smile.
"Inside!" A group of people responded loudly. Although there were many people, the voices were very neat.
"What do you think?" he asked next.
"nice!"
"Oppa is so handsome!"
"The acting is great!"
"..." The answers immediately became confused. Everyone had different opinions and favorite points about the show, but without exception, they all expressed praise.
Chi Jingyuan smiled and didn't take it too seriously. Those who came to him so early must be his fans. No matter how bad the filming was, they would still say it looked good, so fans' rainbow farts should not be used as a reference.
However, he is very happy to get so many fans' optimism and support, and it also shows that the first week of "Misheng" was indeed good.
After signing a few names, Chi Jingyuan said goodbye to his fans and walked into Seoul Plaza, taking the elevator all the way up to the 15th floor.
Chi Jingyuan returned to the crew and received a warm welcome. Although he basically does not take the initiative to socialize with others, as the male protagonist, he is the center of the crew anyway. In addition, Chi Jingyuan usually behaves kindly and kindly. He is polite, so many people have a good impression of him.
After saying hello and chatting with several starring actors and directors, Jin Yuanxi smiled and told Chi Jingyuan the ratings figures for the second episode that he had just received.
"2.7?."
Chi Jingyuan repeated the number, feeling a little surprised.
When I was communicating with the members before, I was relatively modest, saying that I wanted to see whether the second episode would go up or down. But in fact, when Chi Jingyuan saw the unanimous praise for "Misheng" on the Internet, he already knew it. Judging from this situation, it should not fall, it just depends on how much it can rise.
I just didn't expect the increase to be so significant.
It was 1.9% in the first broadcast, and it rose to 2.7% in the second episode. This increase is really big enough. This was achieved when the plot of the first two episodes has not been unfolded and the overall rhythm is very slow. It can't help but make people feel Happy.
At least it shows that workplace drama, a type of drama that is inherently limited, has not had a great impact on "Misheng", even though there was no successful precedent for workplace dramas before them.
And this type of genre sounds far less attractive than the traditional Korean idol drama, the love story between a chaebol and Cinderella, but as long as the filming is good, the plot is real enough, and the acting skills are good enough, you will definitely be able to show your own strength despite your inherent disadvantages. A bit of style.
Because the pace is very slow and the plot is not developed in depth, most of the praise Chi Jingyuan has seen on the Internet in the past two days mainly focuses on two points. First, the plot is relatively close to reality. Second, the most praised is the actor's acting skills, and as the male protagonist Chi Jingyuan was the one who was named and praised the most.
In addition to his very mature and natural performances in the first two episodes, the most praiseworthy thing is that he contributed several close-ups of his face, including his enthusiasm and maturity in the opening, his sadness and helplessness when his self-esteem was hit, and how he thought he was The disappointment and regret for oneself due to making a mistake, the frustration and sadness of being abandoned by others, and even the mixed emotions of laughter and tears at the end of the second episode.
Each picture shows different emotions, but the same thing is that they all leave a very deep impression on people. Whether it is the eyes or the delicate expressions, Zhang Kelai's rich heart is vividly expressed, even if he is separated by Screen viewers can also feel his turbulent heart, and countless viewers can't help but feel a sense of empathy and identification with the actor.
"Chi Jingyuan has made great progress, right? Is this really the state of not acting for a year? It feels like it completely surpasses his acting skills when he played Jin Tan last year."
"Really, this drama was a bit boring at the beginning. I can keep following it because besides the male lead's good-looking appearance, the most important thing is that Ji Jingyuan's acting is really great. I don't watch TV anymore. Several close-ups of him in the drama often appear before my eyes, and they are so impressive."
"I also think that last year I looked down on him because he was an idol, but his performance in "The Heirs" was actually very good, and this time "Misei" was only aired. Two episodes, but I think no one will question Chi Jingyuan’s acting skills anymore, he is really a born actor.”
"Amway in the front row. The male protagonist Zhang Kelai in "Misheng" is played by Chi Jingyuan, the most popular young idol and young actor in the peninsula today. He was born in 1994 and was born in the popular group EXO. In the group, he is the lead singer, rap and The maknae has written songs for the group many times and created hit songs such as "The Filial Piety". He has starred in the hit dramas "Reply 1997" and "The Heirs" as the leading actor... He has outstanding temperament and invincible appearance. With a sunny smile and a contrasting personality, you will definitely not lose money if you invest now!
! "
After just two episodes, I feel like the praise for Chi Jingyuan's acting skills has almost surpassed last year's "The Heirs".
Of course, this is just a compliment on the acting, but the level of popularity is still far behind.
In addition to the blessing of scripts and TV series, Chi Jingyuan has really improved a lot than before.
"Jingyuan..."
While chatting, Jin Yuanxi suddenly remembered something. He quickly waved to the assistant next to him and brought over a small notebook. He flipped through it and asked: "The day before the premiere, the crew and the leading actors were all We have already made a viewing agreement. You were not on the set just now. If you come back today, hurry up and make up for it. We will send it from the official account of the set."
"What's the rating of the agreement?" Chi Jingyuan chuckled and nodded, saying there was no problem. At the same time, he asked curiously while thinking.
The ratings agreement is a very common promotion method for the Peninsula crew. Several leading actors of the crew agree with the audience and fans on a ratings number and promise one thing. If the ratings reach this number, they will do what they promised before.
They don’t do anything too extreme. They mostly learn the dances of the most popular male or female groups and then perform them, or sing in public, buy snacks for fans and other small things. This can be regarded as boosting the ratings and at the same time also attracting the audience. A way to show closeness to fans and give some feedback.
"3 percent." When he mentioned this number, not only Kim Won-seok, but also several actors who were listening laughed together.
Chi Jingyuan was the same. When he heard it, he half-closed his eyes and smiled happily: "This is too small...it won't be achieved in the third and fourth episodes next week."
According to the growth rate of "Misheng", there should be no problem in breaking 3 at the next level.
"Oh, you can't say that. Who can say accurately about the future?" Jin Yuanxi quickly waved his hand to tell him not to talk nonsense, but he couldn't hide the smile on his face.
The ratings of 3% are already very high among today's N dramas. I was a little worried when I set this number, fearing that it would not be enough to be embarrassing, but who would have thought that an urban workplace drama that was not popular would be successful. It was so popular right after it started airing.
"What are the other seniors planning to do?"
"Jiang Sora will choose a company and buy some food for everyone, Jiang Hena will sing for everyone in the lobby, Byun Yaohan will invite employees on the way to work to drink coffee for free, and Jin Daming will..."
The assistant standing nearby looked at the notepad in his hand and read it out quickly.
"..." Chi Jingyuan pondered for a moment, then said without thinking for too long: "Then I will give a hundred audience members a highfive on the way to work, and then give them some fried chicken and other snacks."
"Fried chicken for 100 people? Then you'll have to spend a lot of money." Jin Yuanxi glanced at him and laughed and scolded him. He didn't pay much attention and asked his assistant to record it. At the same time, he said: "I'll use "Wei" later "Sheng" and Zhang Kelai's Twitter account."
"knew."
After chatting for a while, the crew soon arrived to continue filming.
"Normally one episode of Jintu dramas is 60 minutes. The first episode of our "Misaeng" is a 90-minute opening special, and the second episode returns to the normal length of 60 minutes."
"However, since the first broadcast of our "Misborn", we have received enthusiastic responses and many praises from the Internet and the audience. In order to repay and thank the audience for their support and love, we decided after a meeting with the TV station that from the fourth episode until the finale, For episode 19, the length of each episode has been extended to 70 minutes.”
Before filming started, Kim Won Seok stood in the center and began to explain the decision made by the crew under everyone's gaze. : "The work tasks have become a lot heavier again. Everyone should cheer up and maintain the previous status."
"Inside!"
…………
In the next few days, the crew of "Misaeng" started filming intensively while the iron was hot. Due to the positive reviews from the outside world and the significant increase in ratings, the atmosphere of the entire crew was very good, whether it was actors, directors, writers, or ordinary set staff. All very motivated.
As time goes by, the influence of "Misborn" on the Internet is gradually spreading. Many ordinary viewers who had no interest in workplace dramas before saw such a response and couldn't help but watch it out of curiosity. After watching the rebroadcast of the first two episodes, many people joined the show and the popularity continued to increase.
EXO-K was invited by the organizer of this year's C-Festival to serve as a publicity ambassador. This is a performing arts festival integrating culture, art and technology that will be held in Seoul next May. This is the first Once held, the organizer took note of EXO's high popularity in Asia and sent an invitation.
However, because Ji Kyung-won was filming on the set, he did not even attend the appointment ceremony of the publicity ambassador. Only four people from the K team attended the appointment ceremony and the subsequent press conference. Ji Kyung-won and Do Kyung-soo did not go because of personal schedules. I don’t know if the organizers are dissatisfied.
A week passed quickly, and the third and fourth episodes of "Misheng" were broadcast on the 24th and 25th.
These two episodes tell the story of Zhang Kelai’s final choice of intern Han Xilu as his partner. Many awkwardnesses and conflicts occurred during the preparation process for the intern’s briefing. Zhang Kelai also continued to grow amidst these frictions and collisions. Every day New changes, try your best to adapt and integrate into the complex but exciting workplace life of this large international company.
At the same time, because members of the third sales team may be severely punished if they cause trouble at work, the section chief Wu Shangzhi gave up his self-esteem and ran to the supervisor to lower his head and plead, which moved all the employees who saw it.
Finally, during the intern assessment stage, Zhang Kelai had a flash of inspiration at the final stage and showed admirable performance with his wisdom in Go. After being successfully admitted, he entered the third business group.
On the surface, section chief Wu Shangzhi was dissatisfied with the fact that this rookie intern had come to his group again, but he enthusiastically encouraged Zhang Kelai to continue working hard to face his own life.
Generally speaking, the pace of these two episodes is not much faster than before, but the plot has expanded a bit. At the same time, everyone's mission and personality are also portrayed more deeply and deeply.
As expected by Chi Jingyuan, the third episode does not have any meaning of diving, and it is completely accepted
Exceeding the previous increase, the ratings reached 3.5%, which has fully reached the ratings agreement between the crew and the audience and exceeded it by a lot.
The fourth episode jumped directly to 4.1%, breaking the 4% mark and making the crew jubilant.
This is only the fourth episode, and the ratings can reach 4% in the second week of broadcasting, which is already a very powerful thing for a cable TV station.
Even if the increase in the future is not as big as it is now, as long as the ratings do not plummet, the final average ratings will definitely be at least 4 to 5 points. Sometimes N cannot produce a TV series with an average ratings of 5% in a year. .
And with the end of the second week of broadcast, "Misheng" is no longer the small hit on the Internet like before.
From the beginning to the present, through various publicity, it has attracted a lot of attention to the audience, the largest number of which are the white-collar workers in the peninsula.
Through sophisticated production, realistic plots, and commendable acting skills, many Peninsula white-collar workers have become loyal fans of "Misheng". They can be reminded of themselves in the past or present in this drama, and they can learn from this drama. They felt the mismatched fusion of reality and dreams, every contradiction and conflict in the three business groups, every trouble and problem encountered by the employees working together, and every profound confession by Zhang Kelai made them want to stop.
Relying on the vast majority of positive reviews on the Internet and word-of-mouth reputation, "Misheng" has gradually formed a momentum since this week. In addition to being firmly recognized by many people as a good and popular drama, the yield rate and In addition to its increasing popularity, its influence has also begun to break through the film and television circles and slowly spread to other places.
Chi Jingyuan, who did not participate in any group activities and had been filming in secret for a week, took a short leave from the crew on October 26, the day after the fourth episode was broadcast. The agent arrived at the filming site of "rooate".
"Rooate" is a unit program in the variety show segment of SBS TV's "It's a Good Sunday". It is a reality show that records the life of celebrities in their dormitories.
Chi Jingyuan is really familiar with this variety show. His teammate Park Chanyeol was a regular guest in the first season. He was very interested in the first two months of filming. He often mentioned this show in the dormitory and during daily chats, saying He told a lot of interesting things about the shooting and even showed off Nana’s contact information several times.
However, as the ratings of the first season gradually declined, the guests and the production team did not pay as much attention and attention to the filming as they did at the beginning. Park Chanyeol later did not bother to mention this increasingly failed variety show.
The first season has completely ended, and the production team has started anew, reorganized the location and selected guests to film the second season of "rooate", which will be officially broadcast on September 21st.
Not to mention, the show has actually gotten better and better after the reincarnation of the dirty land. Although the ratings have not increased much, the online discussion and the fans' reaction have continued to rise visibly to the naked eye. It is better than the previous number one. Ji's situation of reversing all the way was much better.
The production team did not change, but the guests were changed to great effect. I don’t know how the guests in the first season felt.
So not everyone can be good at variety shows.
Chi Jingyuan came this time because Sunny, one of the regular guests in the second season, made a special call to him and proactively invited him to participate in the filming of this episode as a friend.
To be honest, Chi Jingyuan has been really busy these days. The rising ratings have filled the entire "Misborn" crew with the atmosphere of intense work. In addition, the increase in the length of each episode has added a lot to them. The workload starts from the morning and ends every day at night.
Chi Jingyuan did not even participate in several promotional activities of EXO or K-Team.
But when he answered the phone and hesitated whether to refuse, he felt keenly that the other party's tone didn't sound very good. It seemed that something had put Sunny in a bad mood.
After asking about the shooting schedule and specific time required, Chi Jingyuan thought about it briefly and agreed.
The total screen time lasted less than 20 minutes and less than half an hour.
The total filming would only take a few hours. It wouldn't take anything to delay the crew's filming, except that Chi Jingyuan himself might be a little tired.
Today was the scheduled shooting time. Chi Jingyuan rushed over immediately after asking for leave from the crew.
It is said that Park Chanyeol once invited Chi Kyung Yuan to be a guest when he was filming the first season, but he was too busy and had no time at the time. Moreover, Chi Kyung Yuan watched their variety show and found it a bit boring and not interested.
I don’t know if Park Chanyeol would feel a little bad after knowing that he directly agreed to Sunny’s invitation.
"Rooate" was filmed in a large apartment rented by the crew. When Chi Jingyuan arrived, the previous filming had come to an end and the guests were resting.
As one of the most popular and discussed idols in the peninsula, and the male protagonist of the recently aired and widely discussed TV series "Misheng", Chi Jingyuan has received widespread attention and popularity since then.
This kind of thing is happening all over the country, and it can be seen everywhere in the entertainment industry. With Chi Jingyuan's current popularity, participating in this episode will have a great promotion effect on the ratings and topics. The production team saw that he It’s understandable that he smiled so enthusiastically and happily.
As soon as Sunny saw Chi Jingyuan arriving, she quickly stood up and greeted him. She smiled and took the initiative to introduce a round of guests to him.
As a popular artist like Chi Jingyuan, Sunny has the same bright smile, but everyone knows that she is actually quite proud in her heart. Her squinting eyes and plump and slightly pursed lips prove this. a little.
Except for a few top variety artists in the entertainment industry, all others have low status in the Peninsula entertainment industry and earn the least. They usually don’t have the opportunity to come into contact with the really powerful top artists. If you know a second- or third-tier idol, you will know Contact information can be used as evidence in the program to show one's connections and promote oneself as having a wide range of connections.
As for Chi Jingyuan, a real music idol who is the most popular in the industry and is also widely recognized in the film and television industry, not everyone can recognize an artist of this level, let alone have contact information.
He has basically seen all of these more than ten regular guests. Although he is not very familiar with them, he can at least call them by name.
Among them, ja is a member of got7. Before they debuted, Ji Kyung-won watched their performances on JYP and commented on them. After that, they also met backstage many times after their debut. They are very close.
When he saw Chi Jingyuan, he looked very happy and enthusiastic. He came to the side and talked for a long time. Finally, when he saw that Sunny and Chi Jingyuan were in trouble, he reluctantly left.
After greeting the guests and the program crew, Sunny and Chi Jingyuan walked to a side place while waiting for other guests to arrive.
As soon as Sunny opened her mouth, Chi Jingyuan immediately knew why she asked him to participate in this episode of "rooate" as a friend: "Hey Yigu, this is not uli Taeyeon's best brother, XO's Yuanxi Well."
"What, you TY siblings are done with your work?"
TY is the abbreviation given to Taeyeon and Ji Kyung-won by fans of Taeyeon on the Internet, because the initials of their stage names are T and Y, and Taeyeon's name also happens to start with TY.
But even though Taeyeon fans like to shout, Aili never shouts, especially after the initial enthusiasm has passed, and now she starts to hate Taeyeon who is somewhat close to Ji Jingyuan.
Hearing Sunny's strange voice and expression, Chi Jingyuan knew the reason. It was probably because the relationship between Taeyeon and Chi Jingyuan was revealed not long ago, which caused a lot of discussion, which made Sunny feel a little unhappy.
But when he found out, he was speechless. Wasn't this sister always very calm? She looked like she was too lazy to fight for anything even though she knew it in her heart. How could this make her a little bit sour?
He blinked and was about to say something, but the other party didn't give him a chance. Sunny waved his hand casually: "Okay, you can come.
I was very happy. "
She didn't seem to care much, but her true thoughts were revealed, and she couldn't help but slander her: "Do you think I'm as stingy as Kim Taeyeon?"
"..."
Chi Jingyuan opened his mouth and didn't know how to reply.
Should he say "yes" or "no".
"Haha..." Sunny couldn't help but burst out laughing when she saw Chi Jingyuan's appearance. She pumped her fists and hit him on his back. Chi Jingyuan also sighed helplessly, shook his head and laughed.
Then the two friends started chatting casually on the edge.
Just as the two were chatting about the recently popular topic "Misheng", another guest arrived at the scene.
When Chi Jingyuan saw the figure who walked in and waved to them with a smile, his eyes widened and he was a little stunned. After two seconds, he quickly squeezed out a sincere smile and said hello in a strange tone:
"Aniha Saiyo...Yoona-senpai."
