This action immediately caused a wave of screams and cheers that almost broke through the entire studio. Fang Juexia, who was being teased, was calm. He leaned back and snatched the phone away from his hand.
The other members of the team were enjoying the show. Ling Yi clicked her tongue and said, "So Pei Tingsong is this kind of person!"
He Ziyan, who was sitting at the front, also joked, "Other than being pretty, she's still pretty. This is the nickname that Pei Tingsong gives to his teammates. Can you believe it? "
After saying that, he pointed the microphone in his hand at the audience. Unexpectedly, the fans below shouted in unison, "Yes!"
"You guys really dare to believe anything." Lu Yuan continued, "To be honest, I dare to believe it too."
The fans below the stage laughed. Jiang Miao smiled and looked at the people involved. She made a suggestion. "I think it's more fun this way. Xiao Pei just revealed that she is Juexia's nickname. Now, let's see how Juexia refers to Xiao Pei. What do you think? "
The team's words echoed the voices of the fans below the stage. Before they finished speaking, they screamed and the rest of the sentence was almost drowned out.
The host teased, "This is the best artist I've ever managed. The captain has already started the cue process for me."
Lu Yuan laughed and said, "The captain is a maniac of cue processes."
The hot potato was originally in Pei Tingsong's hands, but now it was in Fang Juexia's hands.
Fang Juexia did not immediately react. He heard the girls below the stage calling his name like waves. He picked up the microphone and was a little confused. "Should I say it now?"
Ling Yi said, "Juexia, don't let me down!"
He Ziyan said, "It's time to hurt each other."
Lu Yuan moved her high stool and said, "The front row is selling sunflower seeds, peanuts, and snacks."
Listening to his teammates' relentless jeering, Pei Tingsong smiled and shook his head. Then, he looked at Fang Juexia.
To be honest, he had blindly chosen a nickname because of his prejudice and stereotype. Now that he thought about it, he felt sorry for Fang Juexia.
However, Pei Tingsong was also quite curious as to how the person in front of him would describe him. Based on his personality, he would not make things up on the spot.
"Hmm …" Fang Juexia raised the microphone and smiled as he adjusted the overly tight chocker around his neck. "Actually, my remarks aren't particularly interesting, so don't look forward to it."
"That better be the case." Pei Tingsong nodded in satisfaction.
Ling Yi made a bold guess. "It could be the Devil's Incarnate, Pei Tingsong!"
Lu Yuan: "No, it's Xiao Pei. Xiao Pei's investment is a huge loss."
He Ziyan said, "Or maybe it's the Amen Ahqian grape."
"Hahahahaha, what's wrong with this group!"
"They're the best at everything, hahahaha."
However, Jiang Miao said, "Juexia wouldn't make such a nickname. I'm guessing it's his name?"
Fang Juexia smiled and looked at the captain. "That's about it. Be more precise." He knew that his nickname was not that funny, and he did not want to keep everyone in suspense, so he turned to face the person in question.
Pei Tingsong felt that he had raised the microphone and was about to say something. He rubbed his ears as if he was serious and turned to look at him with an expression that said, "I'm all ears."
Fang Juexia said calmly, "Kaleido Pei Tingsong."
As soon as he said that, the entire audience burst into laughter. A few of his teammates laughed especially exaggeratedly.
Pei Tingsong's face fell. He stood up from his high chair and pretended to leave. "I'm going solo, I'm going solo. I quit."
Unexpectedly, a fan shouted, "Pretty Baby is still doing it, you can't quit!"
"Hahahaha, sister, you're too loud!"
"Hahahahaha."
However, he was just joking. He stood up and walked a few steps before he came back and sat down next to Fang Juexia. He pulled him over to face him. "Why don't you write Star Map Company's Kaleido Rap as Pei Tingsong?"
Fang Juexia pursed his lips and said naturally, "I'm not your Baidu Encyclopedia."
"Hahahahaha!"
"Hahahahaha, Baidu Encyclopedia!"
Lu Yuan laughed so hard that he was about to pass out. "Little Devil King, you finally have a day like this!"
Pei Tingsong let out a long sigh and complained to the fans below. "Look, my nickname for this person is' pretty ', but he actually wrote' Kaleido Pei Tingsong 'for me. Isn't that infuriating?"
He Ziyan clutched his chest. "Xiao Pei's heart was ultimately misplaced."
Lu Yuan: "He only knows pretty Pei Tingsong. He's just a colleague, Fang Juexia."
Ling Yi: "Horizontal comment — Reincarnation in heaven."
"Hahahahaha."
"The crosstalk troupe is really too much!"
Faced with the ridicule of the entire audience, Pei Tingsong could only shake his head. "Fang Juexia has no heart."
When he said that, Fang Juexia felt a little embarrassed. However, that was indeed how he wrote his nickname. Everyone did the same.
Wasn't that a little too hurtful?
After thinking about it, Fang Juexia did not know what to say. He took his microphone and poked Pei Tingsong's waist.
At the beginning, Pei Tingsong deliberately ignored him and turned his back. Later, when Fang Juexia poked his back again, Pei Tingsong turned around and held his microphone. "I'm too sad about this segment. I'd like to request that we move on to the next segment. My nickname is' my life's pain. '"
The duration of the event was limited. The host happened to want to control the situation, so he went along with Pei Tingsong's words and moved on to the next segment.
Actually, it was not that Pei Tingsong did not want to continue with this segment. He just felt that if he continued, what if Fang Juexia's nickname for everyone else was also very good?
Ling Yi had been his roommate before his debut. They were usually very close, so his nickname would definitely be 'Yiyi'. The captain's nickname would also be 'Miao Ge' or 'Team Leader'. In any case, it would be better than him, Kaleido Pei Tingsong.
Wouldn't that make him lose face?
The more Pei Tingsong thought about it, the more upset he felt. However, their relationship in the team was not as good as strangers. It was understandable that Fang Juexia had made such a nickname. Didn't he say that other than being pretty, there was nothing good about Fang Juexia?
In short, Pei Tingsong did not want to hear Fang Juexia's intimate nickname for anyone else. He had to stop this segment to prevent any losses.
Later, they talked about interesting things about shooting new products. These were not things that Fang Juexia was good at. However, he felt that Pei Tingsong did not talk much and did not participate much. He wondered if it was because of the nickname.
Based on his appearance and daily behavior, Fang Juexia seemed more like the sensitive type. However, in reality, his way of thinking was simple and direct. He always had a barrier between him and the outside world. Most of the time, he was more like what netizens called the 'steely straight man'.
Now, he also realized that Pei Tingsong, who looked very fierce, was actually the one with a delicate mind.
Therefore, Fang Juexia, who had always used the nickname as an index, could not help but wonder if he should change it to a less cold nickname.
Other than being pretty, he was still pretty …
To be honest, Fang Juexia was skeptical about this nickname. After all, he was already used to Pei Tingsong's word games. Maybe this was just a nickname made up for business.
He could not help but wonder what the real nickname was.
The event only ended in the afternoon. The brand invested a lot of money in publicity and the live broadcast was very popular. Later, because of the group's fancy group crosstalk and auditory CP, it became a hot search and the discussion was very good.
The brand was very satisfied and promised Xingtu to increase advertising and offline publicity in the future.
"There will be more and more endorsements in the future." Cheng Qiang was happy and a little emotional. "Sigh, I feel like an old mother now. I feel that the children I brought up are starting to earn money to support the family. It's really not easy."
The six members of the group were convulsing in the car. None of them heard him.
"Ling Yi, can you stop eating? Your dregs are falling on my pants! "
"I'll eat! I'll eat! I'll even let Juexia eat. I'll piss you off! "
"Thank you … Oh, this is spicy."
"Oh, I forgot that this is Indian Devil Pepper."
"Hahahaha, are you the devil? Let Juexia eat Devil Pepper!"
"Excuse me, Devil Pepper is Mexican, right?"
Xiao Wen, who was sitting in the front passenger seat, saw that her boss was completely ignored by her artist. She clapped awkwardly and said, "Chang Ge is right."
Cheng Qiang looked like a boss. After he started the car, he tilted his head and pointed at Xiao Wen. "Fasten your seatbelt."
When he returned to the company, he received another piece of good news. With the introduction of the "Sweet Paper Kiss" live broadcast and the recent continuous exposure of Kaledo, the first episode of the ensemble program, which was broadcast last weekend, exceeded five million views on a certain online platform. Although it was not as high as many groups with super high exposure, this number was quite amazing for a fan-oriented variety show that had almost no publicity other than the introduction live broadcast.
During the planning meeting, the boss mentioned the ensemble program. "Because the feedback for the first episode was good, the staff analyzed the data and found that the most discussed topic in the bullet screen comments was Xiao Pei and Juexia."
Chen Zhengyun looked at the two of them. "It seems that our planning direction this time is still right. The benefits of a commercial couple for the entire group are visible. The rest of the discussion is actually not much different. Everyone is very interested in variety shows. Continue to work hard. "
After that, he took out two sets of contracts. "These are the new cooperation requests from the other two online platforms. They also came to us after seeing the number of views and discussions on the Internet. Coincidentally, when we first signed the contract, we did not sell exclusive content, so now the broadcast channels have increased. "
Ling Yi was very surprised. "Really? I thought that only fans would watch this. "
Cheng Qiang explained, "It's mainly because your fanbase was small at the beginning. To a certain extent, there is a lot of space for passersby. Now that you are at a turning point, there will be a large number of passersby who want to become your fans after watching some performances or programs. The ensemble program is the fastest way for them to get to know you.
"So, the high number of views of the ensemble program also means that the attention on you has indeed increased a lot recently."
Fang Juexia could also feel this change. Even though he barely browsed the Internet, he could get a lot of feedback from his mother and former classmates.
A few days ago, his university classmates sent him a message saying that all kinds of photos of him when he was studying had been built into a tall building on the forum. There were photos of him in class, giving a report on stage, participating in an intramural mathematics competition, basketball competition, and even photos of him at a sports meet.
These photos were also said to have been uploaded to Weibo and were highly discussed.
"Cheng Qiang is right." Chen Zhengyun continued, "Everyone wants to watch this variety show because they want to know the real you. This is also the reason why we don't plan too much. Moreover, this ensemble program may witness the process of everyone coming from nothing. Every hard-won job opportunity will be recorded, which is very precious to the fans and you. "
After that, he returned to the topic of album planning. "Everyone has been working hard these days, and we haven't stopped either. Several producers and I have been discussing these demos for several days and decided to release the title song of this album."
When they heard the title song, everyone was a little excited. Fang Juexia was even a little nervous. Their blank period was so long that he had forgotten what it was like to enter the recording studio to record songs.
"We still decided to use Ziyan's demo."
After that, Ling Yi and Lu Yuan screamed for He Ziyan, "Yeah!"
Seeing that everyone was so happy, Fang Juexia's mood suddenly jumped, but he heard Chen Zhengyun say, "The arrangement is very unique and suits your style. However, the composition still needs to be adjusted. It lacks a very ear-catching melody, especially the chorus. It still needs to be discussed. "
Speaking of composition …
Fang Juexia felt as if he had forgotten something, but he couldn't remember it at once. Pei Tingsong, who had been spinning a pen, suddenly raised his hand. "Boss, I have a suggestion."
"You've improved." Chen Zhengyun teased. "You even know how to use the word 'suggestion'."
The others laughed unceremoniously. Even Fang Juexia had a smile on his face. His fingers played with the small pocket-sized teacup in front of him. It was made of boxwood and was the boss's collection.
Pei Tingsong glared at them and continued, "In terms of composition, I would like to recommend Juexia Ge."
Fang Juexia didn't expect Pei Tingsong to suddenly push him out. The small wooden teacup in his hand fell to the ground and hit the table with a thud.
He was like a little mouse who had failed to steal oil from a lamp. He glanced at the boss and reached out to grab the small teacup that had rolled far away. He put it back and even patted it gently.
Chen Zhengyun smiled and turned to look at Pei Tingsong. "Why did you suddenly drag Juexia out?"
Jiang Miao thought for a moment and said, "Yeah, how did Xiao Pei know that Juexia can compose? We didn't know either. "
Lu Yuan said, "Could it be Xiao Pei's prank?"
Pei Tingsong picked up the small teacup in front of him and pretended to throw it at him. "Do I look that bored?"
He Ziyan had an ambiguous smile on his face. "That means that Xiao Pei has heard Juexia's composition? Even I haven't heard it before. "
"Wow, I'm so sad. I'm Juexia's dearest little roommate." Ling Yi leaned on the table. "Juexia, you don't love me anymore."
Fang Juexia's ears turned red as he listened to his teammates' bombardment. He waved his hands and said, "No, actually, this was all an accident …"
Pei Tingsong interrupted his explanation. "Boss, you have to believe me. Fang Juexia is really talented."
Fang Juexia was stunned when he heard this. He had a lot of words to clarify things in his mind, but they were all forgotten in an instant.
He suddenly thought of a word — powerful and resonant. Even though he knew that this word was extremely inaccurate, but at this moment, every word that came out of Pei Tingsong's mouth smashed heavily into his heart, and every sound echoed in his empty chest.
He looked at Pei Tingsong. The strange thing was that Pei Tingsong, who had been looking at his boss, seemed to have sensed something at this moment. He turned around and their eyes coincidentally met.
It was always like this. The frequency was so high that it could no longer be defined as a coincidence.
However, Fang Juexia did not look away this time. His eyelashes trembled.
Pei Tingsong thought of the snow-white flower trees swaying outside the hospital.
Chen Zhengyun shrugged. "Okay, Juexia, send me what you wrote later. I'll listen to it."
Fang Juexia did not expect the meeting to end up like this. He was caught off guard by Pei Tingsong. He could only nod and agree. "Okay."
If it was before, he would have been very resistant. Even if he could not take out the demo for a whole week, he did not want to be passively exposed.
However, he had to admit that hearing Pei Tingsong's approval and praise made him happy. The magnitude of his happiness was even greater than most of the other people's praise.
However, Fang Juexia did not realize that in his heart, there was already a subconscious division between Pei Tingsong and the other people.
After the meeting, the six of them took advantage of the fact that they were all present to start practicing. Singing and dancing were technical work. If they did not practice for a day, they would become rusty. Kaledo did not have much work and practiced almost every day. Fang Juexia was the most hardworking, and Pei Tingsong was the laziest.
Lu Yuan had already choreographed part of the dance with the demo and took the opportunity to show it to everyone.
"Wow, this is so cool!" Ling Yi clapped like a baby seal. "That move was so cool!"
"As expected of Teacher Yuan." Jiang Miao also clapped.
He Ziyan put her hands on her hips and sighed. "It's so difficult …"
Pei Tingsong debuted out of nowhere. He had almost never practiced before, so his dancing foundation was much worse than the others. However, he was still considered talented and had a good sense of rhythm. Therefore, although he was far from Fang Juexia and Lu Yuan in terms of dancing, he did not drag them down. He won with his charm on stage.
However, the side dance this time was indeed a little difficult. There were many changes in strength. He sat cross-legged on the floor and watched. Then, he moved to Fang Juexia's side.
Fang Juexia was so engrossed in watching the choreography that he did not notice that there was an extra person beside him. It was not until Pei Tingsong bumped into his shoulder that he turned his head.
"What's wrong?"
The music in the practice room was very loud. Pei Tingsong also said loudly, "The dance this time is really difficult."
So? Fang Juexia did not understand what he meant. "It's a little difficult."
"So," Pei Tingsong hugged Fang Juexia. "I want to hire you to be my personal dance teacher. Help me avenge my past humiliation. Don't drag me down!"
"You …" Fang Juexia blinked. "The dance was choreographed by Lu Yuan. You should let him teach you."
"Tsk." Pei Tingsong was speechless at Fang Juexia's one-track mind.
He imitated Fang Juexia and spread his legs. He even pressed his right leg on top of Fang Juexia's leg. "Am I not Kaleido Pei Tingsong? Don't forget that I put the name Kaleido in front of me. If I don't dance well, it's Kaleido who doesn't dance well. If Kaleido doesn't dance well, it's Kaleido who doesn't dance well. "
What kind of logic was this?
It was like a tongue-twister.
Fang Juexia knew that Pei Tingsong was still brooding over the remark. He remembered that he was not so cold after promising Pei Tingsong. Therefore, he thought about how to change the remark.
Should he remove Kaleido?
Or should he call him Xiao Pei?
None of them seemed good. Fang Juexia did not have any good ideas. He thought that it would be better to let Pei Tingsong do it himself.
Pei Tingsong had been waiting for Fang Juexia's response for a long time. He was tired of waiting. He put his hands behind his back and wondered if he had provoked Fang Juexia again with his sarcasm.
It couldn't be. Could it be that Fang Juexia was really a little master? He couldn't even say a word to him.
Suddenly, his ears felt warm, and he heard Xia Qingqing's cold voice and warm breath reach him at the same time.
"Why don't you say it?" He blurted out. His words were like a soft and moist cloud, enveloping Pei Tingsong's imagination. "What remark do you like? I can change it."
If you didn't fall into the clouds, you would never know how cold and soft a cloud could be.
Every wisp of cloud had a touch of sweetness.
The huge mirror reflected their appearance. Fang Juexia was about to lie on his shoulder. His side profile was as beautiful as a painting. It was pleasing to the eye.
[What remark do you like? I can change it.] Pei Tingsong wanted to tear this sentence apart in his heart. He chewed on every part of it carefully. It was even better than tasting snow pear syrup.
But he still restrained his joy. He made an expression similar to when he was teasing him and turned his head.
"Let me think."
The distance between the tips of their noses was suddenly shortened. It was a five-centimeter seesaw.
After the exercise, Fang Juexia's fair face was flushed red. There was a band-aid on his Adam's apple. In Pei Tingsong's eyes, it was like a trophy medal.
He raised a hand and flicked Fang Juexia's forehead. "Dream on."
He raised his eyebrows. "Don't think about being lazy. Before you sincerely change my remark, I want to be called Kaleido Pei Tingsong."
They stayed in the practice room until 1: 30 in the morning. They still had to record the team competition the next day, so they couldn't stay up too long. Xiao Wen drove them back to the dormitory in the nanny van. Although it was already midnight, there were still fans waiting downstairs. Although there were some in the past, the number was much lower. They wouldn't stay so late.
"He Ziyan! Huo Ge, your leather jacket is so beautiful! Whoosh!"
"Miaomiao! Teacher Yuan! I love you all!"
He Ziyan walked at the front and waved at the fans. He naturally sat in the passenger seat of the nanny van and rolled down the window. "Hurry up and go home. It's so late and you're still hanging around outside. I'm going to get angry."
"Yiyi, look at Mommy!"
"Ling Ling! Mommy loves you!"
Ling Yi was very good at taking the easy way out. He smiled and waved to everyone. "Okay, mommy. Mommy, you can go home now that you've seen your son!"
Lu Yuan ran over and hugged his neck. She wanted to take back the game console that Ling Yi had snatched away. Ling Yi shouted crazily, "Mommy, save me!" The two of them fought to occupy the second row of seats.
"Hahahaha, Mommy can't save you! I'll leave it to Teacher Yuan!"
Jiang Miao was wearing a mask. She smiled and said, "Are you cold? It's very cold. Don't come so late next time."
"Ahhh, the team is so warm."
"Sanshui, I love you!"
Juexia followed Jiang Miao out. He was wrapped in a large coat and the hood of his sweater covered half of his face. He lowered his head and bowed to the fans outside since he came out. He softly said hello, but unfortunately, his words were drowned out by the loud screams of the fans.
"Juexia!!! Juexia Ge!!!"
"Mommy doesn't want you to bow! Straighten your back for Mommy!!"
"Our Juexia has worked hard. He needs to take a hot bath when he goes back!"
The last one was naturally the tyrant of Kaleidoscope, Pei Tingsong.
"Ah, Grape, you're so handsome!"
"Pei Tingsong, did you grow taller again? Why are your legs so long?"
He was very sleepy. The early spring night was still very cold. The cold wind made him squint his eyes and walk lazily at the back. "Why aren't you going home? You don't have enough homework."
"Hahahahaha!"
"Grape, you're heartless! I want to stop being a fan! I want to climb the wall! "
"Don't you dare." Pei Tingsong pretended to look for that person and glanced up. "Who are you going to climb to?"
"I'm going to climb to Fang Juexia's!"
At this time, Fang Juexia, who was cued, was about to step into the car. When he heard his name, he paused and turned around. He was a little confused when he saw the girls laughing.
Pei Tingsong first glanced at Fang Juexia, then pretended to dislike the fan who said that he wanted to climb the wall. "Go, go, go, go quickly. I must see you in his Weibo comments tomorrow."
After he finished speaking, he stepped into the car and saw that Fang Juexia had found a seat by the window. He even opened the window to talk to the fans. "Go back quickly. Don't let your parents worry." His voice was always not very loud, so it was buried when he opened his mouth. However, his expression was serious and he frowned slightly. He really looked like a worried older brother.
Pei Tingsong sat beside him and deliberately squeezed with him to the window to talk to the fans. "Go home quickly!"
"Grape, shut up!"
"Hey, are you fake fans?"
The car started. Everyone was tired from practicing, so it was rare for Xiao Wen to be quiet. However, he felt that there was something that he did not say, but he could not remember what it was. While waiting for the traffic light to turn green, he looked through the memo on his phone. Only then did he remember that Cheng Qiang had asked him to announce the itinerary.
"Hey, you guys haven't slept yet, right?"
As soon as he asked, Ling Yi and Lu Yuan started snoring tacitly.
Xiao Wen knew that they were doing it on purpose. He glanced at the rearview mirror and said, "Aren't we recording tomorrow? It's an outdoor scene."
The six people in the car suddenly woke up. "An outdoor scene?!"
"It must be the Maldives. Thank you to the company, thank you to the boss and Chang Ge …"
"No." Xiao Wen changed the topic. "Tomorrow is an amusement park special."
"Wow, the amusement park is not bad!"
Pei Tingsong sneered. "Humans are really easy to satisfy."
"Uh …" Xiao Wen hesitated for a moment and said, "Actually, to be precise, it's a haunted house special. The rest are just bonus events."
The roof of the car was almost overturned.
"Haunted house??!"
