Thinker in the entertainment industry

Chapter 105 105. Red

When Li Yuanhao turned on the TV, his younger sister, who was watching the previous day's "showmethemoney" on the tablet, didn't look up at all.

"I said, even if you watch idols, isn't it better to watch the "Infinite Challenge" song festival than to watch this show edited by demons all day long?" Li Yuanhao became curious again when he said this, "Didn't you lose your love for Shinee after graduating from elementary school? After four years, who are you interested in again?"

Li Yuanzhu, who is in her second year of high school, glanced at her brother who almost had the word "Bagua" engraved on his forehead, and said helplessly: "Thinker, you know, the one who wrote "First Love of the Twenty Generations"."

"Don't pay attention to this. I'm not your future sister-in-law. Besides, I've been busy with my graduation project some time ago, but let me guess." Li Yuanhao raised his legs and rested his chin with his right hand, "It must be pretty, right?"

Li Yuanzhu: "...you guessed it right."

Li Yuanhao was quite complacent: "I said that you, a member of the Appearance Association, will definitely pick good-looking ones to like, why, better than those idols in the competition?"

After entering adolescence, Lee Won-joo, who has become more mature in thinking and is more in the second grade, will not be easily intimidated by his brother's logic, "If there is no difference in other aspects, of course I prefer good-looking ones. It’s okay if the place can make up for the disadvantages.” She said, “There are many good-looking people now, and there are more than one advantages, so I can like them.”

Speaking of this, Li Yuanzhu unplugged the earphones: "Shall I play his part again?"

"Let's play it." Li Yuanhao stared straight at the six hosts of "Infinite Challenge" on TV.

"Play the first episode first."

"They say thinker isn't swag at all, it's just taking advantage of hip-hop. Yeah, I'm just taking advantage of it and saying what I want to say."

Li Yuanhao smiled: "...the voice is good." When boys comment on boys, they are generally more reserved.

"That's the second episode." Li Yuanzhu was not in a hurry.

"...Appearance is greater than IQ, this person is like an idiot. Absolutely negative correlation, chest and brain size. A rough experience, a necessary condition for dreams. If you have a smooth journey, how can you be noble on the stage..."

"Hahaha", Li Yuanhao finally couldn't hold back anymore, turned his head to express his own feelings, "It's interesting, I understand why you are interested".

Although he is not interested in the entertainment industry, Li Yuanhao knows a little about it in a country with a developed cultural industry. People who do hip-hop say that it is a rich music genre, but in the eyes of ordinary listeners, hip-hop -hop is basically things like "I like my beauties a lot", "I'm so awesome and can't accept it" and "I want to diss you".

It has to be said that such people are rare to be able to stuff some "dry goods" in a cold and arrogant tone, especially in "showmethemoney".

"Do you want to see your face now?" Li Yuanzhu showed a "successful" smile.

"Okay, let me see...heh", Li Yuanhao whistled, "He looks good, isn't this an idol?"

"I hope he is, at least his activity can be guaranteed," Li Yuanzhu said, "He has been active in the underground as a rapper for two years, and he also wrote songs for other people, and he worked as a foreign language teacher in Cube. "has resigned".

"Oh?"

"Korea University Japanese Department."

"En", Li Yuanhao responded, the indifference on his face has disappeared a lot. Koreans value academic qualifications, and Li Yuanhao, who is quite proud of being a student of Sungkyunkwan in private, is of course not an exception, and can even be regarded as a more "serious" one. One category, "quite interesting".

The attention of "showmethemoney" is not low, and a lot of information about Zheng Zhiyong was disclosed in the program.Appearance, rap ability, creative talent, behavior style, experience, studies... If only one or two of these things are special or outstanding, it will not cause much trouble, but a person is not ordinary anywhere, and his attractiveness is It's not as simple as one plus one equals two.

If you are a face controler, his appearance can still crush most people among idols; if you like a good voice, his god-given voice will never disappoint; if you prefer talent, "Tears" Although the songs "First Love of the Twenties" and "You" are not shocking to a young musician born in [-], they are also satisfying; In exchange for the well-deserved "allpass" flow, it clearly tells you what is the real strength to speak; "People express their approval. Korea University's Japanese language department education and one-year work experience as a teacher are enough to stop many people's mouths; if you are like Li Yuanzhu, you will become more mature while becoming more secondary I don’t want to be as naive as the children, nor as sophisticated as the adults. I am polite and at the same time have a sense of danger in the mystery of “If you think I’m easy to bully, but remember the consequences at your own risk”. A thinker with all kinds of common sense and unreasonable things can still satisfy your yearning for "being different".

Zheng Zhiyong is not an idol, but two episodes of the fourth season of "showmethemoney" have just aired, and when Zheng Zhiyong showed his face in front of the camera for less than ten days, there have been more than 30 small folk fan sites on the Internet. Li Yuanzhu believes that he should After Zheng Zhiyong signed the brokerage company and "regularized" everything, he would do things like register members, but he also joined a kakaotalk group that gathered people who were also obsessed with Thinker, and chatted in full swing. There are so many "preparatory fans" all of a sudden, the number of passers-by who are simply interested in certain aspects of Zheng Zhiyong is an even larger number.

The two phases are superimposed. After two episodes of the show, Zheng Zhiyong has become one of the three most talked about contestants in "showmethemoney". The other two are Song Minhao, who already has a fairly good reputation, and In the first scene, he took off his pants and in the second scene, he bit Song Minho's cknut.Not to mention Song Minho, compared to cknut's way of creating a sense of presence, Zheng Zhiyong's superior method is undoubtedly much more attractive.

Has the face, the talent, the strength, and the connotation... Ahhh, I am looking forward to the next match, but will it be a little boring to fight against that mixed-race rookie?

This is the voice of many people.

However, they didn't expect that they didn't need to wait another week as they originally thought when they saw Zheng Zhiyong again on TV.

Li Yuanzhu, who has listened to Zheng Zhiyong's rap in "showmethemoney" and Li Yuanzhu's voice in "Hit Maker" and "First Love of the [-]th Generation" countless times in the past week, at first he just thought that the one in the clown mask The voice singing "The night that counts the stars, the seasons pass" sounds familiar.

"Familiar?" Li Yuanhao didn't guess at Zheng Zhiyong's head. There was no other reason. Even if "Infinite Challenge" wanted to find newcomers or underground musicians, it would be unreasonable to find a player who was still in the knockout round of "Show Methemoney" , "Is it an idol? Beast has the song "Midnight"?"

"Yes, the 12-year prelude song collided with "Gangnam Style"." Li Yuanzhu said.

"Oh, that's really bad luck." Li Yuanhao said lightly.

"If you have the ability, you can say that in front of your girlfriend."

Li Yuanhao coughed dryly: "This person has a good voice, he sang idol songs on "Infinite Challenge", he should be an idol too."

"I'm afraid even idols wouldn't do this..." Li Yuanzhu was very confused.

"Why did you choose the song "Midnight"?" At this time, they heard iu ask on TV.

"Because of...selfishness." Behind the clown's mask came a voice with a changed voice.

"Can you try the rap part in "First Love of the Twenty Generations"?"

"what!!!"

As a girl who thinks she has understood many things, Li Yuanzhu doesn't bother to make a fuss or become a nympho over a little thing. It is not in her style to scream, but now, she is really surprised.

"He is...thinker?" Li Yuanhao has a good memory, and immediately remembered what his sister said just now, and was taken aback.

Their reaction was pretty good. The moment Zheng Zhiyong took off his mask, the audience who had never watched "showmethemoney" responded, "Wow, where did "Infinity Challenge" find someone who looks good and has a good voice, so they are not idols." , the reaction of the audience who watched "showmethemoney" is:

! ! !Why is it him again!

Even those who are fans of Zheng Zhiyong's performance in the show are no exception.

IU's omniscience has already been shown once when Wu Hyuk came on stage, and he knows Zheng Zhiyong's background very well, so it doesn't seem so unacceptable. I have never watched "showmethemoney", and I am also familiar with "Twenty Generations of First Love" Those who didn't care too much sighed for Zheng Zhiyong's origin.Sure enough, it is "Infinite Challenge". Although this young man looks like a mass-produced idol in the music industry, it is really not easy to look at it carefully.

Not to mention "First Love of the Twenty Generations", "you" which is still in the top ten of the list, and "Tears", which became popular with the help of "Up and Down", are in the minds of most people They still have the impression that they also saw through the program that the jazz versions of "mywayornoway", "reunion" and "ahyeah" are also works of this "thinker".

This songwriter seems to be good. What kind of songs are "Spring" and "Youdon't Know" mentioned by iu?

On the TV screen, Zheng Zhiyong sang a rap from "Auditory Hallucinations" at the request of iu. Li Yuanhao, who usually doesn't listen to raps very much, leaned forward. After listening attentively, he lowered his head and started searching "Spring" and " youdon'tknow" these two songs.

"I've already bought the audio source", his every move fell into the eyes of Li Yuanzhu, and she successfully gave the person he likes to Amway to her brother, she was a little proud at this moment, "Do you want me to play it for you directly? "

"put."

10 minute later.

"I'd better download it myself," Li Yuanhao expressed his approval with these words, "It's a good time, idols are starting to repeat themselves, but you can see other interesting people."

"Yes." Li Yuanzhu agreed.

On July 2015, 7, on the night of the first broadcast of the "Infinite Challenge" song festival special, related words such as "Infinite Challenge", "hyukoh", "thinker", "Zheng Zhiyong", "Wu Hyuk" quickly occupied na |ver's real-time hot search list, and the popularity remained high. There was no major change until the next day, but the related words of "Infinite Challenge" were fighting internally.

The impact of "Infinite Challenge" is not limited to search.

On the second day after the broadcast of the program, the names of some songs that were unfamiliar a day ago appeared on the real-time rankings of various music source charts.For example, hyukoh released "wiingwiing" and "come and go" before, ledapple's "spring", mq's "you don't know", beast's "midnight". hyukoh appeared on "Infinite Challenge", which brought attention to their original songs.Zheng Zhiyong has not released any works performed by himself, but the songs he has written and sung have become popular because of the show. "youdon'tknow" ranked fourth in real time, "midnight" ranked No.11 in real time, "Spring" ranked No.17 in real time, and even the piano song intro "liveinthepast" written by Zheng Zhiyong for mq was also ranked in Melon's real time No.60, and Zheng Zhiyong's collaboration song "you" for An Xiyan and Ken, which has been released for half a month, also started to counterattack from No.6 and returned to the second position-ranked The first one is "ifyou", which is released on July [-]st by big stick, who releases new songs every month.

Pushed four songs belonging to four groups of different singers to the top [-] of the music source rankings by myself, three of which were written by myself, and the remaining one was sung by myself. From the perspective of operation difficulty, This is more difficult than letting a singer wash the charts.It is not surprising to search for songs that he has sung or to be released because he is interested in a singer, but it is rare to search for songs he wrote for others to listen to.

Hyukoh makes music that is very different from the mainstream style. Before that, the awareness was limited because there was no publicity channel, but "Infinite Challenge" completely reversed hyukoh's disadvantage in this aspect. People lamented hyukoh's music and their patience. Can live with a lonely attitude.

Zheng Zhiyong, who does not hide his thoughts on the mainstream, naturally cannot be as "noble" as hyukoh in his evaluation, but he is not following the route of hyukoh. The deepest impression Zheng Zhiyong gives is "capable" , with Su Dian all over his body, he is active and aggressive in thinking, but he can't see blind rebellion. It is difficult for old stubborn people to be attracted to him, but he is very suitable for young people.

What's more, although some people think that Zheng Zhiyong doesn't look so pure and kind, Zheng Zhiyong's strength has been unanimously certified, whether it is rap, singing, or writing.

When most of South Korea was searching for "thinker" to find out who this strange and distinctive young man was, Zheng Zhiyong, who was the focus of attention, hid in time, and stayed in aomg to deal with various problems from his friends. kind of news.

For example, Yoon Doojoon, on behalf of Beast, expressed his gratitude to Jung Jiyong for choosing to sing "midnight" in the masquerade part of "Infinite Challenge" and singing it very well.

Zheng Zhiyong's words were full of guilt, "Don't mention it, I'm still in a daze, the influence of "Infinite Challenge" is too great...", I haven't experienced it personally, and it is estimated that there will always be deviations, "Or "" I'm more comfortable with the speed of showmethmoney."

Even if he is mentally prepared for the fire after "Infinite Challenge" is broadcast, "counterattack" is not an unfamiliar word to him. It is too scary to bring three songs of different combinations to counterattack in one breath.

Yin Doujun laughed, but it was a pity that no one around let him slap him, so he could only slap the hotel bed twice: "Don't tell me, 80.00% of idols from debut to retirement may not be able to have your current recognition. "

"I know", Zheng Zhiyong said, "but, Brother Doojun".

"Ok?"

"mq...how about them, do you have any news?"
