"there is none left."
"ah!"
After Park Jin Young solemnly announced that there were no more candidates, the audience immediately burst into loud screams. The sound contained obvious emotions such as surprise, joy, disappointment, etc., even with the accompaniment of background music. It seems like such a word.
After Chi Jingyuan heard this, he paused for a moment. His legs that were hanging on the edge of the bed were shaking slightly. He couldn't help but stop. The comfortable sitting posture while eating snacks suddenly became more upright.
Twice's debut group has a total of seven people. If it is confirmed that no one will be added to the list now, then...
His eyes couldn't help but look at Zhou Ziyu, who was standing in the elimination group on the right side of the stage. At this time, the director also gave the camera to him at the right time.
At this time, Zhou Ziyu lowered his head, his eyes were dull, and he was looking down blankly, not knowing what he was looking at. His expression did not change much, but he had no reaction, but his hands were clasped tightly in front of him. , his right hand still held the microphone that he had been holding in his hand, but the microphone seemed to be shaking, as if it would fall at any time.
What should this girl be thinking about right now?
Chi Jingyuan stared at Zhou Ziyu in the camera.
It’s a collection of various negative emotions such as loss, despair, sadness, etc.
I still feel wronged and feel sad and want to cry.
Or is your mind just empty and not thinking about anything?
Just when Chi Jingyuan started to think divergently and was about to help her find some escape routes, the black-haired and dark-faced Park Zhenying suddenly spoke again.
"But, I want to do more for the 7 members of twice..."
What he said was not very smooth and there was a slight pause, as if he knew that what he said next would cause a lot of controversy: "I decided to add two more members to make them a more perfect combination."
"Ah..." The audience at the scene suddenly burst into screams that were even more surprised than before.
Originally, the show had been promoting that seven members of Twice would debut, and the major group had always had seven places.
Adding people temporarily now?
Upon hearing this, Song Minying and others who had just been eliminated immediately couldn't hold it back and cried.
Because they know that even if they add people temporarily, it is impossible to add them. If they were added, they would not be eliminated just now.
"So who are those two members?" After brewing his emotions for a while, Wu Shangjin asked in a flattering tone.
"The selection method for the two additional members is..."
Park Jin Young didn't look very sure at this time, and kept blinking in front of the camera: "One of us has completely listened to the opinions of the viewers who have been with us for five months."
"Decided on the one who is most loved by the audience so far... Tzuyu, Camida."
"Oh oh oh..."
It seems that Zhou Ziyu's popularity is quite good. After hearing this game, many of her supporters cheered loudly.
"Well……"
For some reason, Chi Jingyuan let out an inexplicable breath. He sucked the unfinished chocolate bar that had been half-bitten into his mouth, and chewed it with satisfaction.
"The choice made by the audience is Tzuyu! Congratulations, please come to the front... You have joined twice in a very special way. Please tell me your feelings." Under the command of the host, Zhou Ziyu Step by step, he moved to the middle of the stage.
The screen showed a close-up of the scene.
She held the microphone, seemingly hesitant and nervous, and stroked her hair hanging down on the right side twice in succession.
But no matter how nervous she was, she could not withstand the satisfaction and joy that surged inside her. Two seconds later, the silkworms in front of her eyes suddenly tilted up, and her mouth opened wide, revealing two rows of smooth teeth, letting her no matter what. The pores, nose, corners of the mouth, and ears all seemed to be smiling, smiling like a weather-beaten warrior, but also like a child who was inexperienced in the world.
The half-bent eyes were like black gemstones reflecting the sunlight, bright and refreshing, seemingly without any impurities.
At this moment, it felt like the entire screen was lighting up.
Chi Jingyuan looked at the screen of his phone and blinked. He suddenly had a strange feeling that this was the best smile he had ever had since he met this girl until now.
He watched quietly as Zhou Ziyu stood up on tiptoes and then put them down again. With several small movements that clearly showed that he was extremely uneasy in his heart, he began to speak. Then he opened his big, timid eyes and listened carefully. The way Park Jin Young commented on her.
These testimonials and comments are actually no longer important.
From the very beginning, he felt that Zhou Ziyu, as an idol, was very talented in terms of appearance, and both his appearance and body were far above the standard.
The same is true. In the first few episodes of "Sixteen", she gained a lot of attention with very few scenes. At the end of each episode, her voting ranking will rise a little. She has been ranked first since the latter part of the show. Keep it till now.
For idols, being good-looking and being lovable is naturally the best talent. There are naturally many reasons why Zhou Ziyu was able to finally enter the debut group.
However, from the very beginning, this girl unexpectedly joined the show and became one of the "sixteen". She had complete background boards and screens in the previous episodes, and now she has become the most popular contestant among all the members, and firmly ranked first in the popularity vote.
From when Chi Jingyuan was a judge, the performance he could not praise even enough, looking at the ridiculous stage full of shortcomings, to the enthusiastic and generous performance on the stage just now, the smile and wink are both contagious, and when he encounters an accident But there is no chaos at all, and the response is timely and perfect, mature and chic.
Such great progress and efforts that are visible to the naked eye, if everything can be summarized with just one sentence, "good-looking", it would indeed be a bit one-sided and unfair at the same time.
Seeing Zhou Ziyu walking step by step from the center of the stage to the left to stand among the debut group, Chi Jingyuan also shook his head and laughed.
No matter what, it would be great to make a debut.
After Zhou Ziyu confirmed his debut spot, Chi Jingyuan no longer cared about who the ninth person was. Although he was still a little interested, he was not as concerned as before.
He might be Li Cailing, although he is a little younger, or he might be Somi, who has a pretty good appearance and looks.
Then the final choice really surprised him.
"momo."
Seeing Park Jin Young seriously say the name of the last place, not only Chi Jingyuan, but the whole audience actually fell into a strange silence, followed by surprised screams and cheers.
Choose someone to debut from among those who have been eliminated from the audience?
He really didn't expect JYP's selection.
Although this show is, to put it bluntly, JYP's own show to select a girl group, who doesn't debut and who doesn't are all decided by Park Jin Young and the company.
But choosing a contestant who has been eliminated long ago is really a sharp irony and ridicule in many ways for the other members who have been practicing hard in recent episodes and taking on huge pressure to prepare for the stage and perform.
They will most likely think so:
We worked hard to prepare for each episode, choreographing, practicing, handing out flyers, and doing guerrilla propaganda. In order to fight for that precious debut opportunity, we can't call it hard work, but we can call it desperate.
In the end, you added people as you asked, even if you added Zhou Ziyu, who was the most popular in the voting, everyone was convinced, but it was a bit too much to be able to bring out someone who had been eliminated for who knows how long.
If this is the case, then what does it mean that in the next few episodes of our program, we worked hard in the practice room and practiced on stage day and night?
Sure enough, as soon as Hirai Momo's name came out, several people in the elimination group on the stage were obviously sad and unable to accept it. Chi Jingyuan also noticed that Somi immediately said after hearing it, "Can you still play like this?" ' expression, and then couldn't help but sneered and rolled his eyes to the side.
To be honest, Chi Jingyuan understands somi's reaction.
However, Minami Nai and Saka Minatozaki were very happy, and they hugged each other and started crying. It was really interesting that these three neon sisters actually all entered the debut group due to a strange combination of circumstances.
Now that the quota has been finalized, the various eye-rolling, crying, and touching episodes are no longer important. After Hirai Moofa finished her acceptance speech, the final stage entered.
"Call Robin! This is JYP's new girl group, Twice!"
In the host's excited introduction call. Nine people from Twice stood in a row in front of the stage, the ribbons floated down, and the accompaniment sounded. "Sixteen", which took more than five months, finally successfully selected the members of JYP's new girl group, and it also came to an end.
Chi Jingyuan felt relaxed at this time, looking at the nine restless members on the screen with a critical eye.
As for personal charm, you can’t feel it even if you haven’t debuted and haven’t had much contact with her.
But the appearance is quite good, most people are above the standard. If you want to choose the appearance, I guess it should be Zhou Ziyu, Ming Jingnan or Lin Nalian.
That Minatozaki Saka is actually pretty good.
However, there are four foreigners among the nine members. JYP is really brave this time.
After Twice, who was about to debut, waved hello to the camera, the show ended. Chi Jingyuan, who had been sitting for a long time, stretched out comfortably. This should be the time for Zhou Ziyu and the others to share their joy with their families, and he was too lazy to post anything. I was disturbing others with text messages of congratulations, so I just checked my phone and went to bed.
Until the lights were turned off, he was the only one in the three-person dormitory.
As expected, with the popularity of the last episode of "Sixteen" and Twice's formation last night, by the next morning there were a lot of discussions and accusations on the Internet.
Mainly focusing on the two places added by Park Jin Young at the end.
Zhou Ziyu's joining did not cause too much controversy, because she has been the number one vote among all members since the seventh issue. She has firmly occupied this position for a long time, and she can debut with the number one vote. acceptable.
Voting first will only make people argue if it doesn't make a difference.
So most of the energy is concentrated on the addition of Hirai Momo.
"Forget it Tzuyu, after all, she is the first in the voting, why does Momo have to do it? If a person who has been eliminated long ago can debut, then what does our hard-working voting in the past two months count?"
"This is the first time I heard that a talent show can select people to debut from those who have been eliminated for several months. Even if you are resurrected, you will hold a special resurrection competition. After a long time, you will only resurrect her? This momo How much money did you pay for jyp? Or..."
"It's really disgusting. I was so disgusted when I saw this segment yesterday. It's clear that there is a shady story. Who would watch the girl group selected under such circumstances?"
Faced with the overwhelming number of shady responsibilities on the Internet, JYP Company seemed to have anticipated that this situation would occur, and responded shortly after being inconsistent with their company's previous efficiency and response speed::
"...We considered that Momo is the member with the best dancing and stage performance. If she joins Twice, it will definitely make the group more perfect, so we chose her..."
"...Currently, many netizens suspect that Momo was our previously appointed member. This is absolutely not true. She was a student that Park Jin Young had been observing during the 10th recording period, and it was not until the end that he decided to choose her..."
The response was quite weak and didn't make any important points, so even though there was an announcement, I was still scolding.
Except for Momo, the other members did not receive any attacks or arguments. Except for Lin Nalian, many people, including some Aili, expressed dissatisfaction with this girl's successful breakout:
"Why can Nayeon, a person who doesn't respect her seniors, be able to debut?"
"You are just a trainee who dares to disrespect your seniors. If she really makes her debut, I can't even imagine what she will be like!"
"resist!"
Unfortunately it's of no use.
Looking at these trends on the Internet today, Chi Jingyuan, who was sitting cross-legged in the practice room, watching the excitement on his phone, shook his head.
The announcement from jyp may be true, and momo is probably not one of their designated members.
But Lin Nayeon is.
However, compared to two months ago when the incident first broke out, there are obviously fewer people attacking Lin Nalian at this time, which is good news for her.
Chi Jingyuan looked at it, and his phone suddenly vibrated when he received a text message. When he glanced at it, it was from Zhou Ziyu.
"Did you finish reading it yesterday?"
Seeing these words and feeling the joy contained in them, Chi Jingyuan could imagine Zhou Ziyu's expression when he sent the text message.
"Congratulations on making your debut, aren't you very happy?" He didn't deliberately insult anyone, but instead gave a sincere congratulations.
After all, the long-cherished wish of many years has finally been fulfilled. It is a very happy and several-year day. Let's let her go for once today.
"Hehehe, you're okay."
However, this reserved reply made Chi Jingyuan unable to hold back. He curled his lips and tapped the screen: "When you type, are your mouth grinning to the sky?"
"Not at all...hahaha."
Zhou Ziyu was obviously very happy, and her tone was filled with excitement and excitement that could not be concealed. After chatting happily for a few words, she suddenly changed the topic: "By the way, well, what happened to you yesterday?" After watching the show, my mother came here again. She asked me to ask if you are free today. She wants to treat you to dinner and she also wants to ask you some questions."
"Excuse me? Why are you saying so politely..."
Chi Jingyuan laughed and replied first, then thought of the filming that was going to take place soon, so he sent it again: "There will be a program to record later, and it will probably last until the evening. If it is determined to be today, it may be Later."
"Okay, let's do it today. Remember to tell me when you're done..."
After confirming that it was tonight, and patiently letting the girl vent her excitement and joy, Chi Jingyuan ended the conversation, went to his music room and waited for a while, while IU and Zheng Hengdon took their respective The assistant has arrived.
What we are going to record today is the new episode of "Infinite Challenge Music Festival". The content is still the internal discussion of song creation within their group. This time they really have to come up with some plans to determine the theme. They can't be the same as last time. There is no progress.
Although some of the scenes and lines recorded in the show were set by the writers in advance, the writers had absolutely no say in what songs to write and how to determine the theme and style. After all, they still had to rely on the two guests, namely Chi Jingyuan, Iu, and Zheng Hengdun came to discuss and choose.
These communications and discussions do not only take place during the filming of the show. After all, song creation cannot be accomplished in just a few hours of recording time a week. So after the last recording, they have actually communicated in private many times through mobile phones or the Internet.
"Ah! Even though I've been here once, Jingyuan, your place is really nice."
Zheng Hengdun looked around and then sat down, took the disposable water cup filled with drinks from Chi Jingyuan, took a sip, put it on the table, and said somewhat seriously: "We have to speed up the progress this time. I heard that Brother Shi and Haha are about to have a demo, and we are far behind."
After being divided into groups, the three of them had a lot more personal contact. After some communication, they now seem to be more familiar and relaxed when communicating. You can feel it just by looking at their sitting postures.
"Don't worry, brother, it's not too fast if you hurry first."
Chi Jingyuan seemed quite relaxed. He smiled and took another drink and handed it to IU and sat next to him.
"hehe."
Iu laughed when she heard it, but did not refute. Her expression seemed quite confident. She also took the drink, thanked her, took a sip and put it down. She looked up at Chi Jingyuan next to her: "Have you listened to the song? ?”
Iu wore a ponytail today, wearing loose pink short-sleeved clothes, with a slightly low neckline, and a black hip-hugging skirt, which added a lot of sexy flavor to her own pure aura.
At this time, she held a pillow in front of her thighs. She didn't even call her name, but called Chi Jingyuan in a very natural and familiar tone.
"Of course I did."
Chi Jingyuan nodded.
This collaboration with Chi Jingyuan was facilitated through the song festival, which seems to have aroused some kind of desire to win in iu's heart. She is very attentive and values this collaboration and song creation.
After I finished shooting the last episode, Iu wrote several demos of songs in private for a period of time after I returned home. I also played the guitar and sang a cappella. I recorded several demos and sent them to him for tasting. It seemed that I wanted to tell him. The charm of the lyrical slow songs that he loves also shows the strong strength of the musical girl.
"You really put a lot of effort into it." He nodded sincerely and looked at the other person: "In order for me to feel the true charm of the summer slow songs, the backing vocals alone were stacked three or four times..."
"Hahaha……"
Iu couldn't help laughing when she heard it, but her laughter was a little different from when she was in front of the camera, a little less soft and a little more hearty.
"How do you feel?" She smiled and stared over with twinkling eyes.
"They're all good. There's one I really like."
The display expressed recognition of the other party's strength, and then Chi Jingyuan's expression changed, and he pursed his lips and pondered for two seconds: "But I always feel that it lacks a little impact. I think the songs produced by our group and partners should be... Some stronger impact and shocking feelings, pure summer lyricism, are a bit too flat."
"For the music festival, because there is a lot of stage time and the audience has strong expectations, I think a slightly stronger rhythm, whether it is pop dance music, EDM, or R&B, may have a better effect."
After expressing his suggestion, Chi Jingyuan smiled again and added in a matter-of-fact tone: "Of course, the lyrical style is also very likely to play a surprising role in winning. After all, it is also the senior IU who did it. The songs that came out.”
"..."
Iu listened very seriously, and at the same time he seemed to nod in agreement, but when he heard the last obviously complimentary words, he couldn't help but glance at him and laugh.
After blinking at each other to show his sincerity, Chi Jingyuan looked at Zheng Hengdun aside: "Brother, what do you think? Don't keep silent. You are our core, and your opinions are also important."
"Is it important?"
Zheng Hengdun looked at the two people with some suspicion and asked a question. After getting a clear and definite answer, he breathed a sigh of relief. He nodded somewhat proudly. After thinking for a while, he said seriously:
"Actually, things like style and theme are quite simple. Our group is going to do two songs anyway, so you two can each do one... But I have listened to your opinions and generally understand them. Well, it’s a bit more towards Jingyuan. I also think that for an occasion like the Song Festival, we need songs that are a little more exciting, preferably ones that include dancing or musical instruments.”
Zheng Hengdun did not get along with him, and expressed his suggestions very straightforwardly.
Chi Jingyuan and iu also listened carefully. Since everyone took this case, they must want to make the song better and then get the desired results from it. Everyone also wants to do a good job.
"I have an idea, you guys can see if it works."
Hearing what Zheng Hengdon said, both of them nodded and looked at him.
Jung Hyung Don had obviously thought about it before and said it directly: "Because there are three of us, if the three of us sing some songs together on the stage, the style will look a bit awkward. What I am thinking is, should we sing in one of the songs?" Form a band, then compose a band song, and perform that song as a band, so that it can satisfy the number of people and the effect will definitely be exciting."
"And I've always been interested in the band. They're really handsome... What do you think?"
