Park Chanyeol and Byun Baekhyun tried hard to operate the live broadcast on their mobile phones but to no avail. The other members who were watching the live broadcast on their mobile phones were also helpless. They glanced at each other and finally focused their attention on V next to them. The staff of APP do everything without saying a word.
It only lasted 5 minutes since they started the live broadcast. As soon as they introduced themselves, the live broadcast stopped immediately.
"What's going on, Dongjianxi? Didn't you say before that all the equipment has been debugged perfectly?"
When Li Chenghuan saw that the live broadcast was stuck, he walked closer to confirm the situation and immediately looked dissatisfied at Kim Dong Gun, the staff member from V APP who came over to communicate and cooperate.
"Ah? There are too many people. Is the server down? How many minutes? Okay, I understand."
Unexpectedly, Cui Dongjian reacted much faster than them. He had been staring at XO's live broadcast room just now. When he found that it was stuck, he immediately called the company's technical department on the phone. After a few brief exchanges, he After hanging up the phone, he forced out an apologetic smile and explained in a very embarrassed manner:
"The technical department said that there was too much traffic crowded into the live broadcast room in a short period of time, which caused problems with the connection channels. I'm really sorry... We have indeed debugged and tested the equipment before this live broadcast. I visited many times, but I really didn’t expect that there would be so many people on the first day..."
"The technical department said it will be repaired in about 5 to 10 minutes, and this situation will never happen again..."
"The popularity of XO is really amazing. It completely exceeded our expectations. It's really amazing."
Kim Dong Gun explained with a smile. Looking at him, it was not easy for SM to say anything. After all, this kind of thing is actually a loss for V APP, because the stuck audience will only scold them, not because of it. Scold EXO for this kind of thing.
"Forget it, it's okay Dong Jianxi, it won't be a problem if this doesn't happen in the future, we can just wait." Li Chenghuan didn't say more, nodded and took him over, then looked at Chi Jingyuan and the others with a smile : "The performance just now was very good. Chanyeol and Baekhyun set off the atmosphere very well. It's just this kind of relaxed and natural feeling with sincere enthusiasm. I've been watching it, and the audience's comments and responses have been very good. .”
"It's not our problem, brother." Bian Baixian became more energetic and waved his hands pretending to be scared: "The live broadcast room collapsed as soon as Jing Yuan showed up to say hello. I think it is his problem. He must have messed up our live broadcast. lag."
"Yes, it's me, Miah Nei." Chi Jingyuan raised his hand to confirm, with an expression on his face that said I was the culprit.
"Hahaha……"
Although there was an interlude, it didn't have a big impact since it could be solved in a few minutes. With a few gags, the atmosphere became much more relaxed.
"By the way, how about the data from the live broadcast just now?"
"The live broadcast lasted for five minutes and thirty seconds, but more than 30,000 people have watched it, and the love clicks have reached 2.6 million times." Jin Dongjian sounded extremely excited, obviously frightened by this data.
On the first day when the APP was launched, when no one else had figured out how to live broadcast, and there were not many users and viewers, this data really shocked him.
They reached a cooperation with SM and invited EXO to design this live broadcast plan in order to let the APP get more publicity and attract more people to use it. Originally, they had their own internal judgment and prediction about XO's live broadcast data. However, at the beginning, almost all the previously estimated figures have been completely shattered.
What is the concept of more than 30,000 visitors? What is the concept of more than two million love in such a short time?
You should know that it only started for more than five minutes. It was just a self-introduction. There were already so many people before anything else started.
Sure enough, you really found the right person to cooperate with EXO!
Jin Dongjian felt so excited that he wanted to jump up.
Because it was the first day, other people actually had no idea about this data. After Jin Dongjian explained it and roughly understood their popularity, several people started chatting excitedly. A few minutes later, there was a message over there. When the news came that the repairs were almost done, Li Chenghuan clapped his hands and interrupted the heated chat, and told Chi Jingyuan and the others: "When the broadcast starts again later, remember to apologize first, and then go straight to the topic."
"knew."
"Come and get ready."
"3, 2, 1, start live broadcast."
"Is it reopened?"
"Has it started yet?" The nine members of EXO stood in two lines around the sofa again. Byun Baekhyun stood in front, holding a selfie stick and pointing it at all the members: "Ah, I'm really sorry, it seemed like someone appeared just now I'm really sorry for the trouble caused by a small glitch, but it has been dealt with now... Have all the relatives and friends just come in again? I'll look at the message, 'It's okay!' I'm back, 'Fightin!'"
"The number has reached 10,000 again..."
"Wow, the messages are sent very quickly and they are all so enthusiastic." Several people said a few words at once.
"Then let's continue."
Park Chanyeol took the selfie stick from Baekhyun's side and waved enthusiastically: "Hey Ben, do you know where we are live broadcasting today?"
"practice room?"
「」
"The decoration looks great. Is it a studio specially prepared for today's live broadcast?"
"Ah, Oppa is so handsome."
Chi Jingyuan took out his mobile phone and clicked into the live broadcast room again, watching the messages scrolling continuously. He had to concentrate to see clearly the various messages that appeared and disappeared quickly.
To be honest, this kind of interaction through real-time messages gave him a really novel feeling. It was a completely different experience from watching fans' reactions online after recording a program.
Just, very interesting.
As he said that, he simply took the camera to the unoccupied part of the living room, and then announced the answer loudly: "Someone has guessed it correctly, yes, we are in our XO's dormitory now, clang clang clang clang clang clang …”
"Omo, it's really a dormitory! I guessed it right!"
"Ah, XO's dormitory, where the oppas live."
"Open to the public!"
"Want to see? Don't worry. Today we will reveal part of the dormitory environment. Let the introducer Yuan Xi take you to see where they live... But before that, I want to explain today's activities. Look at this side……"
Although it was his first live broadcast, everyone was already used to facing the camera. Park Chanyeol quickly got into the mood and led the audience's interest with ease. As he talked, he and Byun Baekhyun held selfie sticks. He walked to the kitchen, pointed at several large plastic bags placed on the table, as well as some meat and vegetables that had been packed, and began to explain:
"Here are the ingredients we bought from the supermarket in the afternoon for the evening live broadcast. Some of them have been processed in advance and are ready to be cooked immediately. Today we are going to show off our cooking skills... Who cooks the best? We’ll find out in a while... we’ll have EXO’s first mukbang show soon, so you guys must be looking forward to it!”
Originally, they planned to live broadcast the complete scenes of processing ingredients and cooking, but today's live broadcast time is only about an hour, and there is not enough time to eat after finishing cooking, so they took care of it in advance, and now there is it in the kitchen. Basically they are some semi-finished products.
"Okay, now Chef Chan and the members are going to start cooking. Now hand over the phone to our Yuan and Sehun and let him take the audience to visit our dormitory."
Smiling and waving goodbye to the camera, Park Chanyeol handed the selfie stick to Ji Kyungwon.
"Anihasay..."
Chi Kyung-won took a selfie stick and pointed it at himself and Do Kyung-soo and Oh Se-hun behind him, and waved hello first.
"Ah, is this bare makeup?"
"It's really beautiful!"
"I love you I love you!"
"Everyone's private servers are so handsome!"
As soon as they showed their faces, messages started flooding the screen like crazy.
Seeing his face appear on the mobile phone screen, as well as the various rumors that followed, and the crazy increase in the number of love hearts, Chi Jingyuan couldn't help but feel that everyone was paying attention.
I don’t know who is watching their live broadcast right now.
"Well, I love you too." He saw the various "I love yous" that kept appearing, smiled and replied before starting his own action: "Today is the first live broadcast in the dormitory. So we will make certain areas of the XO dormitory public, including the living room, balcony, and some activity areas, which is actually a bit burdensome to talk about... and finally there will be a room for the three of us."
"Other areas and other members' rooms will be made public until next time..."
This is not the first time that EXO has revealed its dormitory. Although it has not been made public since the move, it has actually appeared on many shows before the move, especially in a few Xia Guo's variety shows when they first debuted. I took pictures of the entire old dormitory inside and out.
But this is the first time in the new dormitory.
"While Brother Chanyeol and the others are cooking, let me take you around for a while." At this time, the staff had also walked from the living room to the kitchen. Chi Jingyuan held up the selfie stick to adjust the angle of view and looked at the large area. He took a picture of the big living room: "This is our living room. After work, usually free members will gather here, sit on the sofa, chat and watch TV. Sometimes they may even play together if they are interested. Some little games.”
"What game? Well, some card game, or, Mafia."
Under Chi Jingyuan's operation, the furnishings and decoration of their living room appeared in the eyes of all viewers.
EXO's new dormitory this year was rented exactly according to their cafe space at the time. It was even slightly upgraded due to the presence of Ji Kyung-won. It is a very high-end mid-rise apartment in Cheongdam-dong, Gangnam District.
The overall decoration presents a simple European style, using simple lines to replace complex patterns, and then filling them with lighter and warmer bright and clear colors. This design not only retains the elegance of the classical style, but also well integrates modern life. The leisure and comfort are reflected.
There is also a luxurious wooden floor under the feet that is the same color as the surrounding walls, an obviously expensive extra-long sofa, and a table lamp next to it. Although not very expensive, there are very stylish murals mounted on the wall, plus everything is available. Various brands of electrical appliances are available. Many people are amazed at the luxury of this house at first glance, and at the same time they can't help but feel like a 'love house in a dream'.
From the small dormitory in the JB area that was cramped and occasionally leaking, to this apartment building, which is one of the best among all the idol groups in the entire peninsula, it can be considered a blessing in disguise.
However, dormitories and accommodation conditions of this level are unimaginable to many unpopular idol groups and even some second- and third-tier idols at this time.
"Hey Yigu, isn't Jingyuan's dormitory very nice?"
In the SM company's practice room, Jiang Seulqi couldn't help but sigh after seeing this scene, her tone full of envy.
Today is the first day that V APP is launched. Because it is related to their work and career, many people in the Peninsula music industry are paying attention to EXO's cooperation with Naver this time, a live broadcast plan that is very popular, and they want to take a look at this new one. How to use the channel, how to do this live broadcast, I thought that if XO is very successful, maybe we can learn some experience from them.
Chi Jingyuan himself had never imagined that in addition to the huge number of Aili and various passers-by who came after hearing the news, those who are watching their live broadcast now actually have quite a few colleagues in the industry, those who have never seen them before. Idols, as well as practitioners in the industry.
For example, several members of red velvet, with the cooperation of SM and Naver, will have a formal live broadcast plan called 'Five Parties Satisfaction' in the next few days in order to promote their upcoming comeback and their long-prepared regular album.
Although the planning process and content have been basically determined, they still took the time to watch the premiere of XO, wondering if they could learn something.
But I didn’t learn much. Seeing the picture at this time gave a few people in Ledbebe a hard blow. The beautiful dormitory living room on the screen made them salivate, thinking of the small house in JB area where they lived. My heart started to feel sour.
Although they all know that they and XO are not actually on the same level of idols now, Red Velvet, who has just debuted for a year, is still living in the same dormitory where he started.
But I just can’t help it!
The decoration is so beautiful and the area is so large. Who wouldn’t be envious of this dormitory?
"It's really good. I remember hearing that XO's dormitory is in Cheongdam-dong, right? Then the rent is even more expensive."
"I don't know which one is better compared to Girls' Generation seniors' dormitory." Park Sooyoung and Jin Yelin also smacked their lips and joined the discussion.
I haven’t learned much about experience or live streaming methods, I’m just jealous.
"Ah ah ah, I really like the decoration of this living room. I have always liked simple European style houses! Did you see the mural that just appeared? Wow~" Sun Shengwan opened his mouth wide and screamed a few times in excitement. Then he looked at Pei Zhuhyun next to him: "Unnie, I remember you also like it, right?"
They privately discussed the decoration style of the house they bought in the future. She remembered that Pei Zhuxuan's aesthetics were somewhat similar to hers, and she liked this style quite a bit.
"Yes, it is one of the most desirable decoration styles to live in." Pei Zhuxuan nodded generously, but still looked at the mobile phone on his lap.
Although she was quite envious of XO's dormitory, it was really a very touching house, but her focus was not on it. Instead, she looked at Chi Jingyuan on the screen and felt that this look was familiar. It’s interesting to see people close to you live broadcast.
Unlike sometimes when he is on a show, he reads the script and performs the whole time in front of the camera for the effect of the show. Many times, the idol in the camera and in private look completely different. During the live broadcast, he really looks a lot more natural. Sometimes it's really close to what he really looks like in private.
He shouldn't have thought that we were all looking at him, right?
Not only red velvet, but also in the JYP practice room on the other side, Zhou Ziyu and several members were also watching the live broadcast while taking a break.
People in the entertainment industry are the most sensitive to these. In addition, it has been promoted for so long. As soon as V APP was launched, many people immediately registered and started using it. Although many artists started live broadcasting at this time, the most popular among them was The one at the front of the home page is EXO.
Zhou Ziyu looked at Chi Jingyuan, who was wearing a sweatshirt and a half-hat and was reading messages on his phone. He smiled and blinked his eyes. After clicking a heart, he seemed to have thought of something. He snickered twice and tapped the screen specifically. He sent a message: "Can you let us see your water glass again?"
Unfortunately, before she had time to read the words she sent, she had already disappeared among the messages.
…
"Who is the best in the mafia? Hahaha, it's best not to know, but the worst thing is..."
Chi Jingyuan, who was still at work, immediately laughed after seeing the message. He glanced at the person next to him with a strange look and did not name him to save his face.
"kkkk Who is Yuan looking at with this look?"
"It seems like Sehun? Or...?"
"It feels like there are a lot of stories in his eyes... I think Yuan is so interesting in private, much more interesting than on the show."
"That's the rest area over there, and there's a treadmill next to it... Luxurious? Well, it's a little bit, right? We just moved to a new dormitory this year, and it's only been a few months since we moved in... These electrical appliances and decorations are a bit The company bought it, but most of it was actually bought by ourselves..."
This is the truth. They bought a lot of things in the dormitory themselves. EXO, which debuted three years ago and has done very well at the box office of their tours, now almost everyone has a full pocket. In the idol circle, they are considered to have entered the rich class.
"Who bought the most? Well... there are quite a lot, but basically many of them are AA, but Jun Mian brother is the most generous. Sometimes I just buy it back because I am too lazy to do it. He is worthy of being the captain, he is really Zzang! "
"That's the entrance over there. Although we have a custom-made shoe cabinet with a large space that can put everyone's shoes, but everyone is very tired after get off work, so it's often quite messy. Today I didn’t have time to clean up, so I won’t show it to everyone..."
