Chapter 28 Solo

Chapter 28 solo

Seoul Hallym Arts High School, third-year vocal music class A.

Cheng Dayong, who was secretly reading comics, was slapped on the forehead by a hand.

This familiar strength, this familiar position, this familiar oppression...

Cheng Dayong smiled awkwardly, raised his head, closed the comic in his hand, and pushed it into the hole in the table as if to hide his ears.

Then, he saw Su Jinxing.

"Ouch, what are you doing!" Cheng Dayong saw that it was Su Jinxing, he breathed a sigh of relief and said dissatisfied.

"It's rare to come to school and read comics here?" Su Jinxing pressed his right hand on the back of the chair to support his body and said to Cheng Dayong.

"Otherwise, do you want me to go to college like you? Don't be ridiculous." Cheng Dayong looked at Su Jinxing helplessly.

"I'm not asking you to be like me, but you can practice vocal music." Su Jinxing was speechless. Cheng Dayong didn't think he was very strong.

If you want to make a career but don't put in the effort, you're just going to get away with it.

"I want to be a show-off." Cheng Dayong said with self-deprecation.

Su Jinxing: "?"

This pendulum is also a spoken language learned from Su Jinxing, but why don't you learn it from a good one?

"You are really..." Su Jinxing held his forehead, should I say that it is you, even if I have to do it over again, I can't have hope for you, it is my fault.

"How many did you get in last month's test?" Cheng Dayong changed the topic, and the issue was his own, but he was not completely done yet.

It's settled, but not completely.

"Seventh, what about you?" Su Jinxing said casually.

"The whole school?"

"It can't be the whole class." Su Jinxing was speechless. If he finished seventh in the cultural vocal class, he would have failed in Seoul National University.

"Including those cultural classes?"

Although Hanlym Art High School in Seoul is an art high school, it also has normal non-art candidates.

"Count it in."

If it were Su Jinxing in his previous life, he might not be able to do it. After all, he was missing so many years of cultural studies. But as a man of two lives, he is very handy in learning and has a kind of enlightenment-like charm~~

"Dafa!" Cheng Dayong was shocked.

It’s only been a month, buddy. I’ve been able to reach seventh place in the school in just one month. Are you always cheating?

"What about you?" Su Jinxing looked at Cheng Dayong and asked.

"I didn't ask, I was scared when I saw the teacher." Cheng Dayong scratched his head and said.

Su Jinxing was speechless.

Su Jinxing doesn't know whether all high schools in Korea are like this or only Hanlin Arts High School. Anyway, the public scores of Hanlin Arts High School are only the monthly assessment of art students. The cultural classes will not be made public. They will be ranked, but I won't tell you.

, if you want to know, ask the teacher.

When Su Jinxing knew about his results, he informed the teacher in advance and the teacher sent him a text message after the results were released.

"you"

"It has nothing to do with Fengyue, I am waiting for your reply~"

Su Jinxing's next words were interrupted by the sudden ringtone of his mobile phone.

"I'll take a call."

He took out his cell phone and walked out of the classroom.

Cheng Dayong took out the comics from the hole in the table and continued reading.

Outside the classroom.

Looking at the number marked "Kim Taeyeon" in the caller column, I answered the call.

"Good morning Taeyeon xi."

"Good morning, producer Su nim."

After the two exchanged simple greetings, Kim Taeyeon spoke.

"I have received the notice here, and a copy of my next itinerary will be sent to you. You can let me go when I don't have an itinerary." Kim Taeyeon informed Su Jinxing of the above decision.

Su Jinxing had known about it for a long time, but this image project still had to pass.

"I understand, then Taeyeon Xi, please send me your schedule." Su Jinxing responded.

"I will send you the kakao account number via text message." Kim Taeyeon continued.

"Okay. What's your schedule today?"

"I have to attend an event this morning and it will end around noon. I have no schedule in the afternoon and have an advertisement in the evening." Kim Taeyeon replied.

"Meet you at the company at three o'clock in the afternoon."

"Yes." Kim Taeyeon agreed. Strictly speaking, she is now producing her solo album. Su Jinxing is no longer the company's producer, but her producer.

The most important thing is the meaning of solo.

After hanging up the phone, Su Jinxing did not rush back, but waited for a while before a text message from Kim Taeyeon came over.

Add Kim Taeyeon's kakao number, then note "Kim Taeyeon" and put it in a special group.

Artists and amateur friends should be separated. Korean names have a high repetition rate. Su Jinxing usually notes Chinese and then makes a group, so that there will be no confusion.

After successfully adding Kim Taeyeon, Su Jinxing suddenly thought of something when looking at Jin Shaoqing below Kim Taeyeon.

[I haven’t been to Seoul Arts High School yet, maybe I can bump into members of GFriend there.]

The art high schools in Seoul are not only Hanlym Arts High School, there is also an art school called Seoul Performing Arts High School. EXO's Oh Sehun and Red Velvet's Kang Seulgi all graduated from this school.

Many artists are from art schools. Hanlin Art High School does not have them, so Seoul Performing Arts High School has them, right?

[How about tricking Kim Taeyeon into going there?]

Su Jinxing suddenly had such an idea in his mind.

Apart from anything else, if Kim Taeyeon follows him, she will definitely be fooled!

Is it the same for a producer to cheat and to cheat with a Girls' Generation leader?

It seems... ok.

The more Su Jinxing thought about it, the brighter his eyes became.

Anyway, Kim Taeyeon doesn’t know what she wants to do, so she just asks for inspiration, which makes sense!

[But don’t be too anxious. I just brought Teacher Qing into the company, and I asked Kim Taeyeon to follow me to Seoul Art High School on the first day without giving me any useful information. She probably won’t be willing either.]

[Fool Kim Taeyeon first, then other people in GFriend.]

[Well, let’s do it!]

Su Jinxing hit his right fist on the palm of his left hand, thinking excitedly.

"Student Su, what are you doing in the corridor after class?" came the voice of the Korean teacher.

Su Jinxing came to his senses and bowed to the Korean teacher.

"I'll go back right away."

The Korean teacher didn't say much. Su Jinxing's counterattack to rank seventh in the school really surprised all the teachers.

There is no doubt that students with good grades will be given preferential treatment by their teachers.

Watching Su Jinxing return to the classroom, the Korean teacher also walked in.

…

At around 2:30 in the afternoon, Kim Taeyeon arrived at the company nearly half an hour early.

One reason for coming so early was to wait for Su Jinxing, and the other reason was to get a feel for the producer's temperament in advance.

The producers in the production department are not very good. They have just met Su Jinxing for a short time, and their understanding is only superficial.

Su Jinxing's good gay friend Cheng Dayong was not found either. He seemed to have gone to school.

So Kim Taeyeon found Kim Shaoqing who had a "close relationship" with Su Jinxing.

When Jin Shaoqing was still in the practice room trying to adapt to the practice rhythm of S.M. Company, she was suddenly called out and said that "Taeyeon senior" was looking for her. Jin Shaoqing was confused.

Taeyeon sunbaenim?

S.M is just Taeyeon, Kim Taeyeon, the leader of Girls’ Generation.

ha?

Jin Shaoqing came out of the practice room feeling dizzy and saw Kim Taeyeon.

Kim Taeyeon: "..."

The first time she saw Jin Shaoqing, Kim Taeyeon felt inferior again.

Assi!

Why is this kid so tall?

A certain person who spoke arrogantly but actually had no idea whether he was 158 or not looked up at Jin Shaoqing and thought angrily in his heart.

"Good afternoon, Taeyeon!" Jin Shaoqing bowed in greeting.

"Good afternoon." Kim Taeyeon adjusted her mood and responded.

"Jin Shaoqingxi and Producer Su should be very familiar, right?"

ha?

Jin Shaoqing was startled.

I know Senior Su very well?

Where did Taeyeon sunbae hear this?

"Senior and I have not known each other for long." Jin Shaoqing answered truthfully.

"Is that so?" Kim Taeyeon was a little disappointed. Jin Shaoqing was not familiar with Producer Su either?

What should I do? Bite the bullet and go through with it?

It seems like this is all it can do now.

"Are you still used to it in the company?" Kim Taeyeon asked softly, her voice was quite gentle even when she didn't mention her eyebrows.

Degurei warning!

"It's good. I met a lot of new friends and learned a lot." Jin Shaoqing nodded quickly.

This is true. On the first day she came to the company, there was a senior who made her familiar with everything in the company and helped her integrate into the S.M practice life as quickly as possible.

This senior is really nice, as warm as a little angel.

"It's good to get used to it." Kim Taeyeon just greeted her as usual, "Then I won't disturb your practice. You can go back first."

"Goodbye, senior," Jin Shaoqing said with a bow.

"goodbye."

Kim Taeyeon turned around and walked away, and Kim Shaoqing returned to the practice room in a daze.

As soon as Jin Shaoqing came back, she was immediately followed by many eyes.

[Calm down! Calm down! Senior Su said that you should get used to being calm under people's attention.] Jin Shao hypnotized himself by chanting Qing Qing, trying to get used to these attentions.

"Shaoqing, you're back." Sun Shengwan came over.

Looking at Sun Shengwan's chubby face like dumplings, Jin Shaoqing resisted the desire to go up and take a bite and nodded with a smile.

"Taeyeon-sempai asked me something."

"Is that so, are you okay?" Sun Shengwan asked.

"It's okay, just a few small things." Jin Shaoqing shook her head to indicate that it was nothing serious.

Sun Shengwan nodded after hearing this.

"Isn't Seulgi Unnie here yet?" Jin Shaoqing asked immediately without seeing another friend she had just met.

"Seulgi went to school today and won't come over until tomorrow. Anyway, the company has no tutorials scheduled today." Son Seungwan said casually.

"Oh." Jin Shao responded. Speaking of which, she hasn't been to school for a few days. She didn't take the cultural exam some time ago. She doesn't know how many seniors took the exam. I think the seniors from Seoul National University must have done very well.

Jin Shaoqing thought like this and took out her mobile phone.

Son Seungwan did not shy away from it, he directly clicked on kakao, found the contact with the note "Senior Su" and sent a message.

Looking up, Son Seung-wan was looking at other places in the practice room.

Isn’t this the screen where you don’t want to look at her?

Jin Shaoqing's heart moved, and she felt the shadow of a certain senior in Sun Shengwan.

Just as careful.

Two forty-nine in the afternoon, first floor of S.M Company.

Su Jinxing felt his phone vibrate as soon as he arrived at the company. This was a message reminder from kakao.

He glanced at the elevator descending from the fourth floor and took out his cell phone.

Teacher Qing: Senior, how was the cultural class this time?

Su: Not bad, seventh place. What about you?

Teacher Qing: Are you seventh in the school?

Look at this guy, Cheng Dayong, you really have no idea!

Su:Yes.

Teacher Qing: Dafa!

Teacher Love: [Kim Taeyeon is shocked]

Teacher Qing: Number seven in the school! As expected of a senior!

Su Jinxing was greatly benefited from Jin Shaoqing's series of messages, and her fangirl-like attitude was really nice!

Su:Thank you. What about you?

Teacher Qing: I didn’t take the exam.

Su:……

bite.

The elevator door opened, Su Jin walked in, then exited and found Kim Taeyeon's kakao.

Su: Taeyeon xi, I'm at the company and waiting for you in the conference room on the third floor.

I casually clicked on the third floor without turning on my phone.

There is no traffic signal on the mobile phone in the elevator, which is very awkward.

The elevator rose rapidly and stopped on the third floor.

The elevator door opened, the signal reappeared, and kakao's message tone also sounded.

Kim Taeyeon:Okay.

Teacher Love: [Lim Yoona’s smile]

Su: Just practice, I have something to do here.

Teacher Qing: Okay, senior, you are busy.

Putting away his cell phone, Su Jinxing strode towards the conference room.

There are several conference rooms on the third floor, but Kim Taeyeon definitely knows which one Su Jinxing is talking about.

Because except for this conference room which has a camera, no other conference rooms have cameras.

This was also requested by Kim Young Min, to record the entire process and then intercept some clips to create a variety show.

Pushing open the door of the conference room, the interior of this room, which can only seat six people, comes into view.

Closing the door behind him, Su Jinxing placed his schoolbag on the conference table, opened his schoolbag, and took out his notebook and laptop.

He had to do a complete set for acting, and he was well prepared for things like inspiration notebooks.

Putting these messy documents on the table, half of the small conference table was immediately occupied, and turned on the computer.

Before the computer entered the desktop, there was a knock on the door.

"Please come in."

Kim Taeyeon opened the door.

"Good afternoon, Producer Su." Kim Taeyeon closed the door of the conference room and came to the conference table to salute Su Jin.

"Good afternoon." Su Jinxing stood up and responded. If there were no cameras, there would be no need for this, but there was no way. The fighting power of the fans could not withstand the pinch.

Today, Kim Taeyeon is wearing a khaki coat with a white long-sleeved jacket and bell-bottom pants that have become popular. Although she is quite short, the outfit can still increase the visual effect of her body proportions to a certain extent.

When it comes to dressing, Korean artists are all about clothes.

A player like Kang Seulgi who had a disaster-like outfit before her debut can fix it for you, not to mention other artists who already have certain skills?

Artists' costumes are weird and weird, but private servers rarely have anything too "artistic" about them.

In fact, before the group debuts, it’s not just about having enough strength, it also allows you to debut directly if it meets the concept.

Others include core training on expression management, clothing training on clothing matching, adjustment of body shape, etc.

What trainees learn is not just dance and singing skills. This is a huge misunderstanding.

Idols don't perform on stage for long, and spend more time exposed in front of the camera when attending events.

Dancing and singing skills are the basis of strength, while body posture, dressing, etc. are external bonus points.

There are a lot of things that a trainee needs to learn. Dancing + singing take up at most about 60% of a trainee's practice time, and the other 40% is spent on learning expression management, body posture, and other things.

Su Jinxing was also a trainee and has a say in these things. There are differences between male and female trainees, but the courses are pretty much the same.

"Taeyeon, please take a seat." Su Jinxing sat down and entered the password to enter the desktop.

Kim Taeyeon sat down opposite Su Jinxing.

"Look at this first. These are some specific descriptions of my inspiration." Su Jinxing picked up a printed document and handed it to Kim Taeyeon.

"Thank you." Kim Taeyeon took the document with both hands and flipped through it.

Opposite him, Su Jinxing found simulation composition software on his computer and debugged several tracks of "I" that he had selected.

Kim Taeyeon looked at this inspiration document and was deeply attracted by the ideas on it. When she saw these fragmentary inspirations, Kim Taeyeon had the urge to see the lyrics and music.

The "broadness", "freedom", "wilderness" and other information highlighted on it all hit the core point of Kim Taeyeon's desired solo song.

Especially this sentence, "Think with me as the core and extend your thinking." As a girl who has experienced three black seas, experienced troughs, and reached the top of the mountain, Kim Taeyeon fully identifies with this.

Music is an extension of inner thoughts, which is a concept that Kim Taeyeon has always agreed with. Su Jinxing's unconstrained idea really touched Kim Taeyeon's excitement about music.

"Have you finished reading?" Su Jinxing's voice came.

"Guess." Kim Taeyeon nodded and put the file on the desktop.

"These are some of my thoughts on the beginning." Su Jinxing clicked to play. The first audio track was described according to the beginning of "I".

The piano played, and Kim Taeyeon listened quietly to the seven-second prelude.

But this time, Kim Taeyeon frowned slightly.

"The prelude is very good, but isn't it a little... thin?" Kim Taeyeon put forward her own opinions. Of course, letting her participate in the production does not mean that she should be in a vegetable state and "ah, right, right, right". Of course, she has to put forward her ideas.

"Who said this was the prelude." Su Jinxing laughed, "My idea is that you start singing directly without accompaniment, and the accompaniment gradually rises as you sing a cappella."

"Your voice is very textured, and the effect of singing a cappella is definitely not bad. Then you introduce piano, drums and other musical instruments..." Su Jinxing suddenly stopped mid-sentence.

Kim Taeyeon was fascinated by what she was listening to. When she saw that the other party's disc suddenly jammed, she was a little anxious. However, she was a patient person and did not rush Su Jinxing.

Su Jinxing pretended to be deep in thought.

After half a ring.

"No, that's not right! If you sing a cappella directly into the song, and then continue singing with the accompaniment playing, it still won't have that much layering." Su Jinxing murmured.

A question mark appeared on Kim Taeyeon's forehead.

This idea is already excellent, but isn’t it layered enough?

What level do you always plan to have?

"Can Taeyeon xi know how to rap?" Su Jinxing asked.

"A little bit, but not much." Kim Taeyeon told the truth.

The brief conversation made Kim Taeyeon realize that this talented producer is indeed worthy of his name, but he is just a bit... young?

"What do you think about adding a rap after the a cappella singing? No, I mean, adding a rap after you sing a song? Piano accompaniment to match your singing, and then rap and drums, and you pick up after the rap is over.

Come on, the drum set continues."

Kim Taeyeon was stunned.

What is this and what?

She could still understand it just now, but this was me singing, rapping, piano and drums, so she couldn't form a corresponding sound in her mind.

Su Jinxing looked at Kim Taeyeon's confused look and smiled secretly in his heart.

This is the effect you want.

Then there was an excited expression on his face.

"I probably know how to write the melody for this song!"

Su Jinxing took the notebook from the side of the table and handed it to Kim Taeyeon.

"I'll make up the music first, and you can take a look at my summary of your solo concept. You can add more if necessary."

After saying that, Su Jinxing started playing music on the computer.

Kim Taeyeon took the notebook over, glanced at Su Jinxing who was immersed in the world of music, and said that she really couldn't understand the world of genius.

Opening the notebook, what caught her eye was a big Chinese character "I". Kim Taeyeon took out her phone and searched for it. After knowing the meaning of the character, she continued to browse.

That's it, one writes the music and the other reads the notes.

Su Jinxing has written the lyrics and music of "I" a long time ago, but it still needs to be faked. At least this song cannot be included in the music library this year, at least next year.

Now let's give it a base.

Kim Taeyeon took Su Jinxing's notes and flipped through them. The information on it was very trivial and of all types, but most of it was information that was consistent with the document just shown to her.

But Kim Taeyeon can't understand it at all, what does this mean...

The previous word was still talking about the theme of freedom, but the next word can reach the New Zealand prairie. Are you starting a ranch?

I can't help Kim Taeyeon.

But Su Jinxing was immersed in the music, and Kim Taeyeon couldn't disturb her, so she could only bite the bullet and read on. Although it was a bit messy, there was still some substantial content.
