erable attention from both teachers and the company, and she is relatively older.Of all these rumors, the last one is definitely true. I'm not sure about the ones before that.Pei Zhuxuan walked outsid..."Hmm I haven't been following that recently, just know that the broadcasting rights for "The Heirs" were sold a while back... It's that popular now"
Chi Jingyuan blinked his eyes in surprise.
He's been really busy lately, usually just keeping up with the news around him.
I only know through personal experience that recently Kim Tan has become very popular in the peninsula. Because there are always groups of fans waiting at the door of the filming site, and reporters and media outlets come and go every day.
>I didn't expect to be so popular in other countries.
"In the story, *The Heirs* was very popular in several countries, especially your role as Jin-woo is the most charming and memorable character. Over there, your fame has even surpassed that of EXO as a whole group, attracting many people who weren't originally interested in boy idol groups to start paying attention to EXO."
And...
Li Xiuman nodded in confirmation and also gave a brief update on the recent situation.
EXO is very popular in China and Southeast Asia because of their frequent activities, especially in China. However, their fans are mostly students, so their target audience is limited to a certain extent.
But as "The Heirs" became popular, Park Seo Joon, who played the male lead Kim Tan, received countless fans. Many drama fans and Kim Tan's fans, after learning that Park Seo Joon was from EXO, also began to pay attention to this idol group, which brought great attention to EXO.
Now that these places' markets are giving Ji-seong and EXO invitations like snowflakes, ** is almost getting overwhelmed.
Only Ji Jingyuan has been filming and can't get away, both the company and Li Xiuman are very anxious.
"In that case, you don't need to specifically ask about the exact wrap date. The company will follow up with the crew. After wrapping, for the first significant period of practical work, both you and XO's focus should shift to the entire Asian region. Jingyuan, you need to get ready."
"Inside, Teacher Xiuman will have everything prepared."
Chi Jingyuan nodded lightly, indicating that he understood.
He doesn't really feel anything about going overseas, he just dislikes flying back and forth.
Lee Xiu Man nodded in satisfaction. This was the place she admired most about Ji Jingyuan, and the one she had the most faith in.
“By the way, because of the huge success of “The Heirs” and Kim Tan, the company has received a lot of TV drama scripts recently. Many are actively offered to you hoping you will star in them. The planning and film & television department people have all reviewed them, and they think some of the scripts are quite good……”
Li Xiuman got up and walked to the coffee machine, saying as she poured: "But I think it's better for Jingyuan to see for himself. As for your planning in the film and television industry, the company won't interfere. After all, the resources you have are something even the company envies..."
"I understand. Thank you teacher,"
Chi Jingyuan immediately expressed his gratitude.
“Your script selection is really great. From your debut "Answer Me 1997" to the second part "The Heirs," both were the hottest dramas of the year. It's unlike some of the self-produced dramas by the company in recent years, despite being very well-made, they still…”
When it comes to this, his face couldn't help but darken a bit. ** invested a lot to enter the film and television industry, but the results were appalling.
The 2009 film "Heading to the Ground" made it twice as difficult for Jung Yoon-ho and Go Ara's acting careers.
But this is still relatively good. The 2007 film "The Flower Boys' Horror Chain Event" directly cut off SJ most people's acting path, becoming a black history that everyone is unwilling to mention.
From 2011's Paradise Ranch to 2012's To a Beautiful You, not a single production lacked the heartfelt performance of a popular idol from under their banner. The company poured resources and promoted heavily, with various top idols lending their voices to OSTs, but the resulting viewership ratings were disappointing, and online reviews were overwhelmingly negative.
I just hope that the self-produced drama "Zongli and Me," which will be released at the end of the year, co-produced by **, KBS, and CC, can make a comeback.
“…………“
For this topic, Jingyuan naturally wouldn't offer any high opinions. He pursed his lips and remained silent.
He has his own way of choosing scripts, of course he won't tell the company. If it's a close friend, he might recommend one or two.
It's not enough to just be able to pick good scripts. Without resources and connections, you can't get the important roles inside.
This topic was a bit heavy, but Lee Soo-man merely sighed and quickly adjusted his mood. He immediately moved on to the next thing:
"By the way, Jingyuan, regarding EXO's next full-group comeback plan, the company has already started discussions. This time it will likely be a mini album release, with "overdose" tentatively set as the title track, composed by Kenzie. However, it's not entirely finished yet. If you have any ideas, you can participate in the arrangement work."
“This time's 'Roar' is really great, the company and everyone are very impressed with your composing abilities, Jingyuan. So this comeback mini-album, both the record and planning departments, as well as myself, hope that you can participate.”
"If you have songs already written, or new ideas, remember to take some time to finish them up, and then record a demo for me like last time with "Roar"."
Lee Soo Man clearly seemed very satisfied and pleased with . He leaned over and patted Park Ji-ung's shoulder, saying in an encouraging and expectant tone: "If the song is great, we can discuss making it a double title track or even changing the main track. I'm really looking forward to your new work, Ji-ung."
"Teacher Lee Hyo-ri, we've been so busy lately, and in a few days there's also the return of "Miracle in December", plus a collaboration with JYP at the end of the year. With such a tight schedule, let alone making new songs, I don't think we can even find time to record demos."
After hearing this, Chi Jingyuan didn't feel any joy, but instead he frowned and sighed in sorrow.
"Haha, there's no way around it. Who told you guys to be so popular and hot"
Lee Hyo-ri brushed past Ji Kyung-won's complaints with a laugh: "It's true that XO has been busy lately, but it doesn't have to be finished right now."
The company plans for XO to return around April next year, so Jingyuan, when the new year starts next year, you can just give me the DEMO. There are one or two months left, I believe you can make time out of your schedule.
"Inside, I'll try my best...
Qi Jingyuan sighed and shook his head slightly.
The two continued chatting about the new album's style. As Ji Changwook was preparing to leave, Lee Soo-man seemed to have suddenly remembered something and mentioned, "Changwook, I heard from FX's manager that you've been getting pretty close with Suli and Seolhyun lately"
This sudden question invigorated Qi Jingyuan, his eyes narrowed into a smile as he readily nodded. "Yes, because they were all born in the same year, we're closer, so we became friends. I've been getting to know them more recently."
"Snort..."
Li Xiuman smiled and waved his hand, seeming completely nonchalant: "Of course there's no problem with being family friends. Even if it's dating, if it were you, it wouldn't really matter."
"It's best to keep this on the down low, and avoid being spotted by fans or getting photographed. EXO is doing really well right now, so we definitely don't want any news like this getting out. Don't worry too much though, the company will step in and handle it if there's ever a press leak."
Lee Soo-man's expression when facing JKY is completely different from when he faces other idols under his agency. He seems like a kind elder caring for his junior.
What he said was also very interesting, if the other EXO members heard it, their eyes would probably pop out in surprise.
"Inside, Teacher Li Xiuman I will pay attention to."
