"Are these the trainees of JYP's survival talent show? Will JYP's new girl group be selected from among them?"
After walking out of the small amphitheater, Jin Junmian looked back at the direction of the stage and asked with interest.
"Um."
Chi Jingyuan walked in front without looking back. He nodded slightly in response, and at the same time added casually: "This is one of the groups, and there is another group of seven people."
After finishing speaking, he paused for two seconds. He smacked his lips and turned to look at several members. He frowned and asked, "No, have you really not watched "Sixteen" at all?"
"I'm so busy every day that I don't even have time to meet and date girls. Who would have the time to pay attention to JYP's talent show? Moreover, this show is not popular at all. There is no discussion on the Internet. It makes people have no interest in taking the initiative to see it.”
"If you hadn't participated in the recording, we probably wouldn't have known about this program... jyp is really in trouble now."
Several members acted as if they should take it for granted and responded plausibly. Chi Jingyuan also opened his mouth, but he couldn't refute anything. Thinking of the current dilemma of this show, he sighed and stopped asking any more questions, and walked ahead to lead the way.
Although he is not the organizer of this show, and he is not from JYP, but because he has become a judge and has some sense of participation, and Zhou Tzuyu is in it, he still hopes that "Sixteen" will be somewhat popular, at least not The lake is not good like it is now, and even people in the circle don't pay much attention to it.
"Who do you think is the prettiest among the female trainees just now?" Jin Jun suddenly brought up a topic they usually like to talk about, which immediately aroused the interest of several people. Discussion started.
"Although there is another group that I haven't seen yet, I think the few people I just met are all average. I can't see their strength, but their looks are not as outstanding as expected... I heard from Jing Yuan last time Having said that, I thought the new girl group that JYP was planning to launch this time was very powerful, but after meeting today, I felt a little disappointed."
"That's right, as for the beauty of Nimbus, it definitely depends on our SM. The few people just now feel far inferior to people like Irene and Shirley. Of course, it may be because they don't do modeling... But JYP is not a special person in the first place. Although they are famous in terms of appearance, the previous two generations of girl groups are quite average in this aspect, not to mention the boy groups.”
Wu Sehun and Byun Baekhyun sang in harmony, and their pride in the company was clearly reflected in their words.
"In terms of appearance, I think the girl with the pair of bunny teeth just now is pretty good. She looks very memorable." Do Kyung-soo thought about the people he just met, and felt that Lin Na-yeon stood out the most. After publishing After thinking about it for a while, he raised his head and asked, "What's her name?"
"I don't know." Chi Jingyuan, who was helpless towards these eight wives, said casually when asked.
"I think that trainee with blue stripes in short sleeves is good-looking and has a really outstanding temperament." Jin Junmyeon expressed a different opinion, and then looked at Chi Jingyuan with a deep meaning: "And I observed it, this The girl must know you Jingyuan, she has been looking at you since we met, that look is really, tsk tsk..."
"I think Dingyan, Shengyan's younger sister, is quite special."
"I also think that the trainee in the blue suit is pretty good-looking and makes him feel very comfortable overall. Even in our company, he is at a very good level."
"Jingyuan, what's her/that short hair/name?"
Several talkative women discussed a few words again, and then they immediately cue Chi Jingyuan,
"Go and watch "Sixteen" yourself. You will know the names after watching one episode. You can also see seven other people. You can vote for the one you like." Being asked a little annoyed, Chi Jingyuan waved his hand without even replying.
He had no interest in introducing everyone's names to them one by one.
"Forget it, just asking casually, this show is so bad, the selected girl group probably won't be very popular."
"Let's go back and get ready. The school celebration will start in the afternoon..."
However, these members were obviously just chatting casually, and their interest came and went quickly. Seeing that Chi Jingyuan was too lazy to participate, he changed the topic to other topics.
Chi Jingyuan, who was walking in front, checked the time and quickened his pace a little, but he thought about it secretly and had his own answer to Jin Junmian's question just now.
It is indeed the girl in the blue striped short sleeves who is the prettiest.
…
Chi Jingyuan and the others returned to the main stage and started working. In the afternoon, thousands of students poured into the venue in an orderly manner and took their seats. By the time the school anniversary performance officially started, the wide venue was already packed with people, and the entire open-air The theater was full of students, and even the middle aisle was submerged in the sea of people.
Because the cheering color of Yonsei University is blue, and everyone is given a cheering uniform, so more than half of the students are wearing blue-based clothes. At a glance, you can see a blue and white ocean, turbulent and noisy. It flowed around and enveloped the entire stage. It looked very oppressive, which shocked the EXO members who took a few sneak glances at the backstage.
Although the exact number of students present is not known, Chi Jingyuan must have at least 10,000 to 20,000 people, and there are probably many more, no less than the concerts they held yesterday and the day before yesterday.
Entering work mode, EXO, like other performers present, began to change clothes, reapply makeup, and wait for the start of their stage.
On the other side, members of the 'minor' group such as Lin Nayeon, Yu Jingyan, and Ming Jingnan were also in the audience in the small outdoor theater. They watched the members of the other group rehearsing and putting on makeup and styling, enthusiastically and wantonly. Prepare the stage for the evening.
To be honest, many people in this group are quite envious. It doesn’t feel very good to be a competitor’s audience, and I feel a little uncomfortable. However, because the camera is filming nearby, I can only keep smiling. He kept applauding, as if he was supporting the other party.
By the time everyone finished the rehearsal, it was already four or five o'clock. They had entered the break and could move around freely for a while. After a while, the audience came in and they would start filming.
Several girls gathered next to the stage. After seeing members of another group walking backstage again, they looked at each other and the scene became quiet for a moment.
"well."
The eldest Lin Nalian sighed with emotion. She had been a member of 6mix's debut group and was JYP's most promising trainee. Before the start of "Sixteen", she had always felt that other people were no match for her. The one who is the strongest and most outstanding will definitely make his debut.
Unexpectedly, the program suffered repeated blows after it started. Not only did it fail in several assessments, Park Jin Young's evaluation was not very good. In the third episode, he was almost eliminated by the shady and biased judges and was placed in the 'minor' group. She let out a long breath of thrilling breath.
It was just that she had finally passed the test, but now she still fell into the minor group. She could only watch the other group prepare the stage happily, and they could only be the audience here.
Najing Nan followed and sat next to her. She lowered her head and secretly looked at the people next to her while playing with her fingers.
Just when it became a little quiet here, another sound like muffled thunder came from the distance. Even though it was a long distance away, there was only a little lingering sound here, but it was still clear as thunder. .
They had heard this sound many times in the afternoon. They were a little surprised at first, but later they found out that it was the cheers and cheers from the audience coming from the main stage. I gradually got used to it.
It’s just that the cheers seem to be louder now than before, and it’s unclear which guest’s turn it is to perform on stage.
"How about we go watch the performance on the main stage?"
Listening to the amazing aftertaste in her ears, one could imagine how lively it was over there. Lin Nalian's eyes suddenly lit up and she made a suggestion.
"Okay, okay, I want to see it!" Sun Chaeyoung was the first to agree, raising her right hand with her mouth half-open like a student.
"Is it far away..." Yu Dingyan hesitated and said worriedly: "The performance over there has been starting for a long time. If I go now, I don't know if I can go in, and I don't know if I need to." Admission requirements are required, such as checking student ID cards..."
"Oh, let's go, let's go. Didn't Chi Jingyuan say before that it's very close, and we have a pass and it's definitely fine. Even if we can't get in, just take a look outside."
The more she thought about it, the more interested she became. Lin Nalian stood up, grinned, and ran over to help Yu Dingyan and several others. After convincing several sisters with her body and words, she turned around and asked who was sitting next to her. Mina Minami: "Mina, are you going?"
Najingnan, who had already heard the noise, pinched his fingers, raised his head and smiled beautifully:
"OK."
…
After asking a student, several girls arrived at the main stage in a short while. Before entering, they saw a large circle of people surrounding the outside. The ubiquitous human voices mixed with the aftershocks of the speakers. , the hot and noisy atmosphere rushed towards my face, which was far more exciting than what I had just heard in the previous place.
"Wow, it's really lively here." Lin Nalian couldn't help but exclaimed when she saw students everywhere.
"Of course, this is the main stage. Today is a day for many popular artists to perform. It is estimated that more than half of the people in this school are here."
Although Yu Dingyan was also very interested and kept looking around, he still maintained his indifference on the surface. While squeezing forward with a few others, he stood on tiptoe to take a look inside. At the same time, he asked curiously: "Also?" I don’t know whose turn it is to perform now…”
"Ahhhh..."
Before she could finish her words, a burst of cheers like a roaring tsunami suddenly came from the front. The gathering sound wave seemed to burst their eardrums, and a powerful roar could not help but echo in front of their eyes.
"Thum, thump, thump, thump..."
Then there are some extremely dynamic electronic drum accompaniments. When you hear this familiar intro, you can actually sing along without having to listen to Yu Dingyan and the others behind it. However, because you have been squeezing forward, you don’t have time to appreciate it, so you just raise your eyebrows. Ears, listening to the clear and lazy voice followed closely:
"You are my orientation sniper, my orientation sniper."
"Needless to say, you can feel it, from head to toe."
Just the first sentence at the beginning has already caused the whole audience to sing loudly. The restless sound waves seem to break through the sky. The echoes passing through the surroundings make the entire ground seem to tremble. The surrounding temperature seems to be gradually increasing, the closer you get. The body became hotter and hotter.
"..."
Because the chorus was too loud, unless several people were talking into their ears, they would not be able to hear what each other was saying even if they were shouting face to face.
Hearing this prelude, Lin Nalian, who had been full of enthusiasm and liveliness just now, suddenly wilt. But even so, because the atmosphere was too hot, she couldn't help but nod her head gently to the familiar beat and chat with the person next to her. Humming the lyrics like a human being.
Several girls also linked arms with each other and held hands while listening to the song. After walking for a while, they finally passed the gate and walked into the venue under the leadership of Yu Dingyan.
The slightly crowded environment just now suddenly became enlightened. It was only after entering that I realized that the hot atmosphere outside was just the tip of the iceberg, and the shock it caused was just scratching the surface.
As soon as they walked in, the warm current that made people feel hot seemed to be everywhere, accumulating them from all directions, making every pore begin to burst out with heat at this moment. Driven by the dual emotions and atmosphere, the whole person His body shook involuntarily.
At a glance, Mingnan could only see the blue ocean. Almost all the audience in the entire amphitheater stood at this time, waving their hands excitedly, loudly singing along with the artists on the stage, and the huge voices gathered and intertwined. Together, it made her head slightly confused, but it also brought an indescribable feeling of shock from her heart.
The audience's voices and speakers competed with each other without falling behind. At this moment, my slightly dazed ears could only vaguely hear the excited cheers and the ubiquitous song "Orientation Sniper".
It was really too fanatical. Even though I had just come in, not only my head and body, but even my breathing began to be filled with high temperature.
She looked towards the stage, because she was too far away from the edge and could no longer see the faces clearly, but the big screen was still clear.
"You are my target. As soon as I see you, I can't help but want to have you."
"I think about it often before falling asleep."
On the big screen, Chi Jingyuan, who was wearing a blue stage suit, stood at the front of the stage. He held a microphone in his left hand and sang his part with a bright smile. His right hand stretched forward and shook up and down to make this song. Song's iconic choreography.
The entire audience followed him and extended their right hands to move up and down. Looking around, the swaying bodies formed a beautiful and spectacular wave.
This wave spreads across every corner, undulating and turbulent, passionate and high-spirited.
This scene of tens of thousands of people dancing together at the same time brought extremely strong impact and soul-stirring appeal, making the girls who just walked in feel like they were being manipulated and couldn't help but dance along. stand up.
"Oh, oh..."
"That gentle smile of yours!"
"Oh, oh..."
"And the way you look at me!"
At the back, Chi Jingyuan and EXO on the stage didn't even have to sing by themselves. They only had to pronounce the onomatopoeia in front of them, and the students below would sing the next part in unison. You and I matched each other very well. So good, from the moment they came on stage until now, the fiery atmosphere has stayed at the top and never dropped.
It was as if everyone in the audience knew how to sing this song, without exception, and even the lyrics were memorized by heart, and just a few people could perfectly replace the pretentious backup dancers on the stage.
Every time they sang in chorus, Mingjing Nan and others felt that the ground beneath their feet was shaking slightly.
A few middle-aged teachers who looked like school leaders sitting in the front row were also shocked by the overwhelming atmosphere. They couldn't help but look back. The slender eyes under the gold-rimmed glasses were full of surprise.
"It's just flawless."
Chi Jingyuan smiled and sang his own lyrics to the harmony of the audience. He stepped out with one foot and slightly bent his knees and stepped on a box on the edge of the stage. At the same time, he stretched out his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead and looked at Looking at the enthusiastic students in front, I was also quite excited and emotional.
After just singing a few songs, he was already covered in sweat and hot.
The atmosphere was really great. Every student was extremely excited and excited. It had been like this since the afternoon performance, but it wasn't so intense before. It wasn't until EXO came on stage that the whole place was on fire.
Having the entire audience sing along with thousands of people is really not a treatment that just any idol artist can have. Even he found it difficult to stay calm in the face of this heart-wrenching scene.
The atmosphere and support are really not inferior to their concert at all, or even better.
It can only be said that it is indeed a school anniversary, and the main theme is an atmosphere.
At this time, several girls were also shocked by such a fanatical scene. They looked around in disbelief at the vast venue and the students everywhere. Finally, their eyes focused on the big screen of the stage in the distance.
Only by being in it can you feel exo's amazing popularity and the strong charm that blooms under the blessing of this hit song.
At the same time, you can also feel to some extent the joyful and fascinating sense of accomplishment that comes from being supported by stars on stage and being the center of attention.
Already infected by the surrounding atmosphere, several girls stood in the distance with enthusiasm and watched the remaining stages of EXO, from "Orientation Sniper" to "Call Me Baby", and then to the finale of "Pao Xiao" .
It wasn't until EXO came off the stage that the artists behind them took a look at one or two stages. They stayed there for more than 20 minutes before looking at the time and then leaving with some reluctance.
"Wow, that scene just now, especially the xo stage, the atmosphere was really great..."
On the way back, the emotions of several people were still a little shaken. The scenes and bustling sounds of Hongdae they had just seen seemed to be in their ears and in front of their eyes. Sun Chaeyoung looked extremely excited, and she jumped a few times as she walked, as if she wanted to. Venting some of the passion in his heart, he ran forward a few steps faster, stepped on the curb next to him, grinned like a child and imitated Chi Jingyuan's waving movements in "Orientation Sniper", smiling very much. Lively.
After a few imitations, she burst into laughter. She walked back with a smile, and then smacked her lips in admiration: "It's such a good atmosphere, I wonder what it's like to perform up there."
"It must be good..."
"Exo's popularity is really high. The atmosphere of the people on stage at the back is obviously not as lively as the ones in the front, and it feels like all their songs are sung the same, especially "Orientation Sniper" and "Pao Xiao", the one where the whole audience sang in chorus Scene, jinjia..."
"Of course, let's not talk about "Pao Xiao". "Orientation Sniper" has become very popular recently. Almost everyone in our school can sing it, and it is still at the top of the music list."
"This word is a hot word now, and many people are using it to express their feelings or as a catchphrase."
Hearing this, Lin Nalian, who had not expressed much opinions before, suddenly became excited. She grabbed Yu Dingyan's hand, looked at her affectionately and said: "You are my sniper..."
"Hahaha……"
In private, Yu Dingyan might have cooperated with her crazy performance, but in public places, especially when there were so many people around, he was still a little embarrassed, so he just laughed twice and slapped Lin Nalian's hand away, rubbing it in disgust. Rub the contact area.
Although some people were a little emotional after watching the performance for a while, they seemed to be in a much better mood. Minami Ming, who had been silent all this time, couldn't help but join in a few words.
We returned to the small theater and started filming after a while. When it got dark, when it was Park Jin Young and the 'major group''s turn to take the stage, a few people acted as the audience below and gave the correct instructions with a smile. rea.
After the stage ended and I went backstage to shoot for a while, today’s task was finally over.
After Park Jin Young briefly explained a few words, he left the lounge and went to the front to catch up with some seniors and friends he knew. He is also a graduate of Yonsei University. Many of his familiar friends came today, including the host MC. He is his junior, so it is necessary to say hello.
Based on his status, he should actually appear on the main stage to perform, but the school would definitely not allow him to film "Sixteen" there. In order to take the hard-working new girl group to film the show, he also took over the commercial performance here.
After Park Jin Young left, there were only some staff members and the female trainees from the two groups reunited in the lounge. Not long after, Son Chae Young said to Somi in a distinctive voice:
"Guess who we saw today."
