Thinker in the entertainment industry

Chapter 221 221. Prediction

There are not so many smart people, and not so few, and the temptations made by "Infinite Challenge" are appropriately sensational, and some viewers are aware of it.

They asked it out and made their own guesses.

"Infinite Challenge" is not YG, which can pretend to be dead without responding at every turn. On the contrary, it is the obligation of national variety shows to respond satisfactorily to the needs and questions of the people in a timely manner. Gill and Lu Hongzhe have been in "Infinite Challenge" for many years, and the relationship is naturally extraordinary, but if something happens, they will get off immediately, and there is no way to persuade them to stay.

Programs aimed at a specific group, such as "snlkorea" and "Witch Hunting", may not please everyone. "Infinite Challenge" is different. It originally relies on "most people" to survive, and it must also serve "most people". people" like.

The program group's response was subtle and cautious:

During the program recording process, the program team considered that thinker might be embarrassed when he entered the venue to meet Gill, and asked thinker for his opinion in advance.The filming was carried out with the consent of thinker.

The public speeches try not to contain anything that would make people think wildly. They didn't directly answer why Zheng Zhiyong and Gill were photographed together.

The person who answered this question was Zheng Zhiyong.

After the turmoil of "Zeze", many fans and passers-by urged Zheng Zhiyong to continue reading in the live broadcast. Of course Zheng Zhiyong would not listen to such words. His attitude was very clear-I want to do what I want to do.Afterwards, he broadcasted live broadcasts about once every half a month, firmly implementing the principle of "I am happy", with a variety of content, and the professional ones included covers of popular songs at the time, such as "rough (time lapse)" produced by gfriend in January. 》, there are musical instruments with relatively low professional content. Zheng Zhiyong played the keyboard, guitar, violin, and clarinet. After Zheng Zhiyong said that the piano he had learned most deeply reached the eighth grade and could no longer hold on, many passers-by shed tears of sympathy:

Legs are acquired and fingers are congenitally disabled, thinker, can you be more miserable?

Zheng Zhiyong, who was doing a live broadcast, responded to the question "What instrument do you like most now?": "It's almost always when I write a song that I remember it. If I like it best——"

He took out his harmonica.

There are also some that have nothing to do with his current career. For example, some fans who have read Shakespeare’s sonnets best come to him for comfort. Zheng Zhiyong, who is interested, started a live chat while taking a walk at night, chatting all the way from ancient English to modern times. The history of the development of English and the issue of literary translation, the Koreans watching the live broadcast, whether they are fans or not, enjoy watching it with great interest, but the subtitle group serving Zheng Zhiyong’s overseas fans wants to flip the table, and even ran to Zheng Zhiyong’s ins The following is full of bitterness.

This time Zheng Zhiyong started the live broadcast, the reason is to preview his upcoming solo album, and give fans a vaccination by the way. "'You don't like to talk about dirty words, sex, violence, things you like to talk about are more exciting than them'", Zheng Zhiyong said with a smile in the middle of the screen, "This is what the representative said, when my album comes out, what's the problem Let’s discuss it rationally.”

Zheng Zhiyong has said similar things many times, but it is too easy for people to confuse opinions with character, and Zheng Zhiyong can only remind them time and time again.

During the live broadcast, someone asked him whether his appearance in "Infinite Challenge" meant that Zheng Zhiyong would talk about the topic of drunk driving. Zheng Zhiyong was not surprised by the appearance of this question, his smile was slightly reduced, The expression is serious but not tense or heavy.

"I'm a little conflicted about this matter," he said. "I'm willing to talk about my feelings, but I don't think I should get the results I expect."

?

The fans watching the live broadcast, passers-by and even the reporters who heard the news all looked confused. Zheng Zhiyong's answer was completely different from what they had imagined.

"At the very beginning, my thought was that those who disregarded the safety of others must be severely punished. It doesn't matter how heavy the means are. Until now, such emotions still exist, but intellectually, it seems that legislation cannot solve the problem. For all the problems, criminal penalties were increased last year, and alcohol sellers and fellow passengers were punished, and similar incidents have decreased, but there is no way to stop them.”

"I want to have a nobler goal," Jung Ji-yong said, "no more... people like me."

Like Zheng Zhiyong, because of unexpected disasters, he lost his originally bright future.

In the eyes of the public, Zheng Zhiyong's success in changing careers and achieving success in another way is the legendary result of his extremely strong will and good luck.Even so, the boy who was only 16 years old at that time was 24 years old when he came to the stage again, and the eight years he could not pursue still made people feel disappointed and regretful.

So, what about the other victims who had a similar experience with Zheng Zhiyong?

"Let's talk about reality. Personally, I absolutely hate this kind of behavior, but I can't say how heinous the people who do it are. DUI is too common and too common as an offense. I now I haven't had a "personal experience" yet, but I can't guarantee that those people who I care about and those who care about me will definitely not do such a thing. What I said is that I will definitely not do it, not that I will definitely not be arrests, including driving outside the city after drinking alcohol."

"A widespread phenomenon reflects a common problem. What is the reason for so many people drinking and driving? Is it a single factor or a combination of multiple problems? After the cause is clarified, can there be other legal reasons? How to reduce the occurrence of such things? Not all things can be empathized with each other. On this issue, I don’t quite understand the thoughts of those people who drive after drinking. I’m not sure if what I heard is an excuse or the truth question."

"If I don't feel offended, I would like to ask Senior Gill." Zheng Zhiyong said frankly and sincerely.

"thinker: I don't want to stop at hatred."

After the live broadcast ended, news with this title quickly appeared on the Internet.

Zheng Zhiyong expressed his wishes and aspirations to the audience watching his live broadcast, but he was not blindly optimistic, but also expressed his worries.

——The exploration of the reasons behind it should not become the understanding and forgiveness of drunk driving behavior. It is natural to be punished for doing something wrong. He has no opinion on the law, and he hopes that more people will not violate the law and rules , rather than being forgiven after the offense.

Zheng Zhiyong knows that tolerance is the recommended behavior in South Korea, especially for public figures-although everyone is not tolerant of public figures, he does not accept this.

The world is not made up of simple binary oppositions, black and white. His unwillingness to indulge in hatred does not mean that he will easily laugh it off.

Zheng Zhiyong's statement is an honest temptation.If he received a negative reaction, his will probably not be strong enough to make him ask for trouble.If the popular reaction is positive...

Will "Infinity Challenge" do a special about it?

The attitude of the public is very subtle. It is very rare for an entertainment program to discuss something other than entertainment. Even if there is, it is almost like the "Two Days and One Night" Harbin special mourning Ahn Jung-geun, which can never go wrong, but drunk driving...

Why drunk driving has become such a common wrongful behavior, some people actually understand the reason, but they are a little contradictory whether to let Zheng Zhiyong say it.

Artists analyze social issues. This is unprecedented. Not only are they unable to predict what kind of consequences they will have in the end, they are even a little... afraid.

Viewers themselves were divided.Zheng Zhiyong's proposal has nothing to criticize in terms of reason, but many things are not really problematic if there is no problem in reason.

Everyone's entanglement is also reflected in Zheng Zhiyong's ins. The emotions are not too intense, but there are comments with different opinions. Some support him, some think his decision is reckless and arrogant, and some advise him to be careful. , Some also think that he is using the identity of the victim to stir up the topic, and some think that he should be more mature before talking about this matter...

Finally Zheng Zhiyong sent an ins to "pacify" everyone:

"Don't worry, maybe after my album comes out this problem won't be there, because I'll have to stop."

Fans and people who eat melons are speechless.

Is this consolation?Does it count?

The public's ability to accept, or "endurance", is to be challenged over and over again.Zheng Zhiyong made an agreement with "Infinite Challenge" a long time ago, before taking drunk driving as a knife, he will first use his own solo album to find out the rumors.

It has been almost two months since the preparation of this album. Zheng Zhiyong is in charge of song production, and other things such as the MV shooting of the title song. .And now, it's time to submit the work to the market for testing.

"Are you nervous?"

The day before the release of the sound source and the release of the album, he was summoned. Park Jae-bum used his knees to think that Zheng Zhiyong was definitely looking for a tree hole again.

But seeing that the person on the opposite side had just contributed a considerable amount of turnover to his family's dudart, and he also had free coffee and cakes, Jay Park decided to endure.

"A little bit", in front of Jay Park, Zheng Zhiyong never concealed his inner fragility and wavering, anyway, the other party knew it a long time ago, "There are too many things involved, even though I know the worst result, I can say I can bear it."

After feeding gray and simond who were working hard for "showmethemoney" in aomg, Zheng Zhiyong held coffee in his hand, and walked along the corridor with Park Jae-bum to the window at the end, basking in the sun while chatting.

"Then you want me to think of something good for you?" Jay Park said, "After your album comes out, absolutely no one will say that you are pleasing the mainstream."

"I don't care too much about whether you want to please someone or not. I stepped on the thunder and got banned at the beginning, and it doesn't make sense to be 'Gaojie'," Zheng Zhiyong said, "But I don't think it should be."

Speaking of this, Zheng Zhiyong smiled: "I know I have gained a lot, and it is normal to have a little more pressure."

Zheng Zhiyong is talented and has a background. Judging from the fact that he was invited to appear on "Infinite Challenge" during the unknown period, and the troubles he encountered later made his popularity and word-of-mouth recognition even higher. He is also lucky.Regardless of the body, Zheng Zhiyong's current situation is enough to make many people in the circle turn green with envy.But nothing is perfect in the world, and Zheng Zhiyong doesn't think he will be favored by accidents.

He doesn't have to do physical work, instead he squeezes inspiration and mind, develops a habit, grasps the feeling of a short visit like a conditioned reflex, accumulates a lot of related things, makes boring repeated corrections, and bears all the results alone—— Self-sufficiency sounds great, but it also means more stress.

Jung Jiyong thought of "Dawn Comes", which released the sound source a week ago.

Half a month has passed since "The King of Masked Singer", and the popularity it can borrow is a little bit, not too much. The sound source was released at noon, and it rushed to the top ten of each list within an hour, but it has fallen to twenty in the evening. After the first place, it is now hovering at the top [-]. Compared with "Things That Shouldn't Be Like This", which was still around the top [-] on the music source chart after its release, the results of "Dawn Comes" can be said to be very bad.

This is not the worst situation they imagined in advance. The sound source of "Dawn Comes" is indeed not very good, but there are only a few people who give the impression that "the sound source must be good". The boy group is big, and the girl group is the hottest right now. , or the return of the group, Park Hyo-shin, the big music source, and other people's works may be popular or nothing will happen. Of course, An Xiyan does not belong to the group with excellent performance in the default music source.In addition, the word-of-mouth of "Dawn Comes" is really good. So far, Zheng Zhiyong has not had any songs that have been accused of shoddy production. "Dawn Comes" is no exception, but too few people will pay for that style, and Zheng Zhiyong's works are not excellent. To the point where taste preferences are ignored.

If the poor performance of "Dawn Comes" really attracts bad reviews from others, the target will only be An Xiyan, not Zheng Zhiyong.

It's just that Zheng Zhiyong himself will be disappointed.Although he didn't get blamed from anyone, Ahn Hee Yeon even comforted him that she will be hosting "Idol of the Week" with Kim Hee Chul and defconn until Jung Hyung Don returns from his illness.Zheng Zhiyong is still disappointed.

It's also something he has to get used to and adapt to, and he hasn't experienced it enough.

"As I said, freedom has a price." Jay Park said with a smile. He has been self-reliant for almost six years, and sidushq didn't care about him. Later, he simply became his own boss. It's the price he has to pay for everything.But although Jay Park is not smart enough, his willpower has never been weak, so it's okay.

Moreover, he has a group of good friends.For example, the one in front of him is not lenient when he uses him, Jay Park, but when he thinks about him, he is not usually meticulous, considerate, and generous.

Just be nice to him.
