Chi Jingyuan put away his mobile phone and followed the scene manager into a nearby office. At this time, the room was much busier than his room, except for the director Kim Won-seok who was talking to the producer Li Sang-bae. In addition to a few staff members, several leading actors such as Jin Huixiu were also there. However, they probably didn't have anything serious to do at the time when they just watched the party. They were all talking about something with relaxed expressions.
"Jingyuan is here..." After seeing Chi Jingyuan come in, Jin Yuanxi waved to him and took the initiative to say hello. He came up with a smile and said: "Congratulations, your combination has won the grand prize. "
"Huh?" Chi Jingyuan was stunned when he said this. He only found out about it just after watching the live broadcast, but this guy actually knew the news right away.
"Uh...Kang Sangmita." Chi Jingyuan quickly saluted and thanked him, then smiled and asked, "Brother, did you send an assistant to keep an eye on me?"
"Hahaha, Ru Zhen just happened to be watching when she had time. She is a fan of your Seems good.
"Congratulations Jingyuan..."
"Awesome Jingyuan..."
The producer and actors next to him, including Kim Hye Soo, also smiled and congratulated each other, and the youngest Chi Jingyuan quickly thanked him in return.
Although the crew may not listen to Kpop, and they may not like most idols very much, Chi Jingyuan happens to belong to a small group, and they have worked together for so long. He seemed quite sincere, and his smile made the atmosphere in the room very harmonious.
After the excitement, Jin Yuanxi took a document from the front and handed it to Chi Jingyuan: "This is the shooting plan after the broadcast starts tomorrow. The crew has coordinated with your company on the specific time. It is estimated that they will focus on filming you in the first few days. You go back and watch the scene to prepare..."
"Okay, I understand." Chi Jingyuan took the file and responded.
Nodding, Jin Yuanxi remembered something again and said: "Also, the broadcast will officially start tomorrow. Just now we were guessing the ratings of the premiere. You can also guess, and think of a ratings agreement or something like that." .”
"Guess the premiere ratings?"
Chi Jingyuan took the document and sat down on a stool next to him. He looked at Jin Huixiu next to him and asked, "Senior, how much do you guess?"
This happens every time before the TV series starts. It can be regarded as a good chance of winning, and he has become accustomed to it.
"My guess is three percent."
Jin Huixiu sat there very relaxedly, leaning on the stool and crossing her legs. She was swaying, and she didn't know if the air conditioner in the room was turned on. The girl's coat was hanging on the back of the chair behind her, and she was wearing a black shirt. The top buttons were not fastened, and the neckline was open to just below the collarbone.
"Then I'll guess three percent."
Chi Jingyuan didn't think much about it. After thinking about it for a while, he said with a smile.
Guessing the ratings is not just a matter of guessing high or low. If you guess too high, no one will praise you even if you really achieve it. If you don't achieve it, you will be ridiculed wildly if word spreads. It's better to guess lower.
And 3% of the first broadcast ratings is already a very high figure for tvN cable TV station^ although it is a bit bleak before the astonishing ratings of 18 in the finale of "Reply 1988".
At this time, Zhao Zhenxiong interjected: "Three percent is a bit conservative, isn't it? I'm quite confident in our drama."
"Then Jinxiong, please guess a little higher. Don't be so conservative like them. The higher the number, the better the promise!" Kim Won-seok felt a little dissatisfied with the conservativeness of the other two leading actors, so he interjected to tease Zhao Zhenxiong.
"Then I guess...five percent. With so much publicity these days, I think it should be okay." Zhao Zhenxiong actually took it seriously. He thought about it seriously for a moment, and seemed to be really thinking about what the ratings would be, and how many seconds. Then he nodded slowly,
After being together for so long, Chi Jingyuan has a better understanding of this brother's character. He is a relatively calm and old-school senior actor. He is very serious when filming and likes to put himself into the role every time.
"By the way, senior, let's take a selfie and I'll post it on Instagram to promote it." After chatting for a while, Chi Jingyuan suddenly remembered something and took the initiative to look at Jin Huixiu and Zhao Zhenxiong and suggest it.
"Okay." Both of them nodded happily. Jin Huixiu even looked at him specially and said, "I heard from my manager that Jingyuan, you have the largest number of SNS fans among idols now?"
"Haha, the company is running well."
With a false humility, Chi Jingyuan stood up and walked between Jin Huixiu and Zhao Zhenxiong. The two seniors also moved closer to him. Chi Jingyuan picked up his phone and started focusing on the three of them.
He was wearing a black casual suit, and with his smile and short hair, he looked dignified. Kim Hye Soo seemed to be enjoying herself, and her head was tilted towards Chi Jingyuan. Zhao Zhenxiong looked a little unnatural, but he also smiled very seriously. .
Click!
Chi Jingyuan stood behind the two senior actors and made a scissor gesture with a smile. He pressed the shutter button and took a few pictures in succession. After smiling and greeting the two, he logged on to his Instagram next to him and chose Uploaded after a few photos.
He seldom retouches the photos he posts on his Instagram. Basically, he only occasionally uses the beautification software that comes with his phone to retouch other people in the same frame, so as not to be rude to others. Cause controversy.
If you are good-looking and have good skin, you can be so casual...
Although the angles and lighting of some of the selfie photos Chi Jingyuan posts on Instagram are very weird, sometimes you can’t tell it’s him unless you look carefully. The style is very different from the handsome and polished selfies of most other male idols. big.
But I always remember that these very natural, real, and unique selfies are also liked by many fans and passers-by. This is also an important reason why he seldom does business, but still has a high number of followers.
Many fans think that Chi Jingyuan is fresh and refined, and is different from other coquettish bitches...
His Instagram has fans all year round. He doesn’t know if SM has bought zombie fans, but Chi Jingyuan has never done this himself. He has more than 10 million fans, the most in the Kpop music industry. These photos have just been uploaded. The likes and comments started flooding the screen instantly.
“Oppa is open for business!”
"The missing person has returned. You finally remembered that you still have an INS. Do we want to thank you?"
"This is the trio starring in "Signal". They seem to have a good relationship. The other two are also movie buffs. Yuan should make a movie sometime."
“The Signal premieres tomorrow, everyone must stay tuned to the show.
"Tonight EXO won the Golden Disc Award. Ji Kyung Won didn't even post a celebratory Instagram post. Previous member Kim Jong In didn't post it on his birthday. The first post he posted in many days was actually to promote his own TV series. It's really selfish. , I hate this kind of people the most and have no group spirit at all. I guess EXO will be disbanded soon..."
"The one above was buried in the soil and your body tissues were degraded and disbanded. Even EXO will not disband."
Because Chi Jingyuan only has this social account, his ins is not only a gathering place for fans, but it is also a place where many black people like to hang out. Many people who hate him will curse and attack him below. He has been working tirelessly for a long time. , every time there is an update, I post it on Instagram as soon as possible, and I put more thought and energy into it than many die-hard fans.
After a while, Chi Jingyuan glanced at the kakao group again. Because they had won the grand prize, the rest of EXO were quickly scrolling through the screen, posting photos, and discussing where to celebrate later.
He also joined in the fun and shared a bit of the joy of winning the award.
It has also been posted on INS, and all the promotions that need to be done have been done. Next, we will watch the premiere tomorrow.

""Reply 1988" has come to an end and attracted national attention. The finale's ratings exceeded 18% and made history."
"The 10th anniversary special project "Signal" of cable television station tvN is about to succeed "Reply 1988". Will it replicate the ratings myth, or will it disappoint people?"
"The director of "Misaeng" Kim Won-seok once again partners with screenwriter Kim Eun-hee. Kim Hye-soo returns to star in a TV series after three years. Joining hands with Ji Kyung-won, Zhao Jinxiong travels through time and space to pursue crimes."
"EXO fans launched an online campaign to strongly support the premiere of Yuan's TV series "Signal""
tvN has sufficient resources. Recently, you can see the promotion of the drama "Signal" in many places. From the beginning to now, edited film and television clips and materials will be released every once in a while. As the time approaches, The premiere, various press conferences, live broadcasts, and press releases have never stopped. Because of the popularity of "1988", the TV station's ambitions and expectations have gradually increased.
The film and television industry has been very lively recently. The huge hit of "Reply 1988" made this drama almost all the popularity in the past few months during its broadcast. Both the actors and the plot have attracted the attention of the whole people.
The three major TV stations haven't paid much attention to the Friday and Saturday night schedules of Jintu dramas. During this period, they mainly focus on Japanese dramas and Jinyao dramas, which are not on the same track. Even so, these TV dramas have been criticized. It has little impact, and even the prime-time TV dramas of the three major TV stations have become less discussed under the shadow of the popularity of "1988".
In direct competition with "Reply 1988", cable TV station JTBC's Golden Earth drama "D-Day" was directly knocked over, and its ratings were backlogged to less than 1% for a long time. It was considered a very thorough attack. of a drama.
"D-Day" is a disaster-themed TV series set in Seoul. It is the first time a Korean drama has challenged the theme of a disaster film. What is even more worth mentioning is that this drama is a collaboration between SM and JTBC, and they have invested more than 40 million.
If you think about it this way... the success of this show seems to be natural.
After "Reply 1988" ended, under the deliberate guidance of tvN, considerable attention and enthusiasm was directed to the upcoming 10th anniversary special "Signal". In addition, because of the cast, Chi Jing received widespread attention. Yuan and his drama became popular before it was aired.
Time flies, and soon it is the evening of January 22nd. This is a very important time for many fans of TV series, especially Chi Jingyuan.
"There are still thirty minutes..." Li Zhenying sat on the sofa at home, checked the time on her phone, and felt a little anxious in her heart.
She is a loyal fan of Chi Jingyuan. She has been a fan of Chi Jingyuan since a long time ago. She will spend a lot of time and wholehearted support for any activities that her idol participates in. Compared with EXO's schedule, she especially likes Chi Jingyuan. Jingyuan has filmed some TV series, from "Reply 1997" to last year's "Misborn", and has never failed to do so.
What makes her even more satisfied is that even if it is not just to support idols, these dramas are also very good to watch, and the results are also very good, so that she, a fan + career fan, can feel at ease and have more fighting spirit to support her idols. work.
She has been waiting for the premiere of "Signal" tonight for a long time. She has been extremely happy since the news was first announced. During this period, she will watch it immediately every time the materials on the Internet are released. Yesterday After Chi Jingyuan posted the Instagram promotion, she immediately left a message to express her support, and even had a quarrel with some black people in the comment area for a while.
After waiting for so long, I finally waited for the premiere today.
But why does time pass so slowly? Are there endless commercials...
Li Zhenying was a little dissatisfied with the advertisements on the TV. After thinking about it, she took out her mobile phone and opened the previously collected video of "The Signal Launch Conference" and started watching it.
This was a press conference held by the three leading actors of "The Signal" on the V APP a week ago to warm up the premiere of the TV series. Of course she watched the whole thing, but to her there were many interesting things in it, so it didn't matter. After watching it twice, it’s much better than watching commercials and waiting.
"...my impression of Jing Yuan after the filming started?"
On the screen, Jin Huixiu was asked a question drawn by the host in the live broadcast room. She recalled and thought about it for a while, and looked at Chi Jingyuan without any embarrassment: "Of course the acting skills are great, but for me the deepest My impression is... when we get up close and personal in private, he is really good-looking..."
"...We have a lot of opposite roles when we are acting. Wow, he doesn't even have to say his lines, just looking at you quietly can bring a lot of pressure...I really envy his facial features, he is not very aggressive. It’s very comfortable and matches well, especially suitable for acting, and because my facial features are actually not very delicate..."
"Then as for acting, everyone performed very well, but they didn't feel it at all... Zhenxiong never talked about his acting skills, and Jingyuan always talked about his shortcomings, but in fact, the two Their acting skills shocked me..."
Facing Jin Huixiu's enthusiastic praises, Chi Jingyuan was speechless and a little embarrassed by this sister. When Jin Huixiu said, he kept poking her gently with his elbow: "Ani, don't Having said that, I’m just bragging…senpai is better looking…”
Li Zhenying smiled and felt much better about Jin Huixiu.
Have a vision!
"..."
"The choice of actors?" Kim Won-seok answered this question very directly: "Actually, the choice of actors is very simple. After I got the script, I actually had a very clear choice of several leading actors, like It was the role of Park Hae-young. The first thought in my mind was to let Kyung-won play the role. I auditioned later and it was indeed a good fit..."
"..."
"The whole team worked very well together. We often discussed together and made a lot of preparations to take on the role..." Zhao Zhenxiong commented on the team of "The Signal" very seriously.
"..."
"Then Jingyuan Xi, please describe the role you play."
In the video, under the host's question, Chi Jingyuan thought for a while and said:
"Park Hae Young is a policeman, but he hates policemen..."
………
At the same time, in Girls' Generation's dormitory.
"Why did you come back so early today, so you didn't have to work on your subway song?"
Li Soonkyu, who had just finished eating, returned to the dormitory and saw that the lights were not turned on. In the dark living room, a ghostly figure illuminated by the TV light was huddled on the sofa holding a pillow. She knew it without asking. This ghost was Kim Taeyeon. She walked straight to the side and turned on the light, then asked a question.
The suddenly turned on light obviously made Taeyeon a little uncomfortable. She stretched out her hand to cover it, frowned and glanced at her twice. After finding that it had no effect, she gave up. She rubbed the pillow vigorously and replied: "I'm almost busy... Don’t you know? Today’s “Signal” premieres, and I’m here specifically to support Jingyuan’s new drama.”
She raised her eyebrows as she spoke, and changed into a comfortable position on the sofa. Her face seemed to have the words "I have made such a great contribution to the ratings of his TV series, and he must thank me properly" written on her face.
Girls' Generation has no team schedule recently, and the members have all dispersed, either going back to their own homes or living in the houses they bought. Currently, they are the only ones who like to go back to the dormitory occasionally.
"This lineup still needs your support..." Lee Soon Kyu turned on the lights and walked over, sat next to the sofa, took a pillow from Kim Taeyeon naturally, and said with some disdain: "I heard Yoona I said before that this drama is very popular, both the main creative team and the cast are very strong, and the TV station is also very supportive, saying that it has a high probability of success."
"Tsk~" Kim Taeyeon immediately curled her lips: "She said there is a high probability of success...hahaha..."
She seemed to think it was a bit bad to talk about the members behind their backs like this, so she didn't continue. However, she made a few artificial laughs that everyone understood.
After chatting for a while, she remembered something and asked curiously: "According to Yoona, this drama is so popular, how come Jingyuan got the role and the company didn't give Yoona a chance to compete for it?"
"Don't you know? He doesn't get the resources for his TV series from the company. He has his own network and contacts, which are much better than the company's." Lee Soon Kyu glanced at Kim Taeyeon strangely, thinking that she should know. : "I heard that the director of "The Signal" took the initiative to find him this time, and he was almost cast in the role from the beginning."
"The director took the initiative to find him? Isn't it that exaggerated? People like Xiuying Yuri are so envious... Yoona has a good relationship with him. Why don't you just talk to him about this kind of character..."
Kim Taeyeon shook her head mid-sentence: "Forget it, it won't work, it's not very suitable...and even if he has the resources, he should give it to his daughter first."
"Father, do you mean Irene?" Hearing this title, Li Shunkyu blinked and turned his attention.
"Yeah, didn't I tell you before."
"Yes...but by the way, when did he and Irene get together? I haven't heard him say that before."
"I don't know, it seems like it's been a long time..." Kim Taeyeon thought about it for a while, but she didn't have a specific impression.
"It's been a long time..." Li Shunkyu tasted the word and felt a little strange: "It shouldn't be, this guy has changed his gender?"
Before she could finish speaking, she was interrupted by Kim Taeyeon who was looking at the TV:
"here we go!"
