Chapter 15 Chapter 15 Short video first experience丨Tsundere Quan Xiao……
Neon is a small entertainment company, and the entire company is now running smoothly because RIOT DOLLS' comeback single has received very good response and the results have far exceeded expectations, and are even getting better every week. At this rate, "VIXEN VIRUS" is likely to become their first big hit, surpassing all their past records.
These are all the changes brought about by Quan Xing Ai. Although her condition has been up and down in recent years, everyone now knows that the creative courses Xing Ai has learned in recent years have not been in vain. She is really talented. After her psychological problems were cured, her expressiveness and condition are even better than the year she debuted.
After the MV was released, the YouTube comments were no longer the mixed bag they used to be. The public's love and hate were just a line, and if you could grasp it well, it would only take a moment to change from disgust to love. The performance of Quan Xing Ai in the MV was flawless and impeccable.
"We have to shoot studio dance and short video clips this afternoon. In between, we'll also be filming RD Sweetheart TV. Remember to stay in shape! As for the clips later, I've already discussed it with Song Cangxi's company and actor X and senior X who I've worked with before. After we finish shooting the promotional materials this afternoon, we'll go to their company and shoot some clips together." Chi Mingzhen muttered about the new materials and schedule for the new day.
After her return, she became even busier. Quan Xingai sighed. She seemed to have reached a dead end again. If she wanted to make money, she had to be famous. If she was famous, she would be busy. If she was busy, it would be even more impossible for her to retire.
"Don't make that expression. You used to work so hard, but now you look so hopeless when you hear about work." Chi Mingzhen tapped Quan Xingai's head.
"Unnie, I just feel like I still have many more years of work to do before I can retire..."
"Mingzhen unni, our Xingai's recent dream is to lie down and live like a salted fish as soon as possible." Jin Wen added with a giggle.
"She just wants to sleep at home every day. She's completely Buddhist." Kim Eun-mi said while playing with her mobile phone.
"It turned out to be a blessing in disguise. Xing Ai's attitude improved, public opinion began to reverse, and his popularity steadily increased."
We arrived at the company while chatting, and started shooting the RD Sweetheart TV materials with handheld cameras. Several people in the car cueed each other and had an awkward chat.
When they got off the car, they saw the gathered fans. They didn't expect the popularity effect to come so quickly. Fans started to wait in front of the company door so soon. When they saw the four of them getting out of the nanny car, the fans screamed one after another.
"Lumi!! Eat more, don't be so skinny!" "Eunmi, your new hairstyle looks great!" "Iris! Gift, gift!"
"Sarah!! Welcome back the strongest newcomer ever! You are awesome!"
Quan Xingai puts on a business smile and waves to her fans. Being a star has become her instinctive behavior.
"Xing Ai Ouni, give me a Tomie-style eye roll!" Suddenly a fan yelled heartbreakingly.
The group paused, and Quan Xingai looked over and saw that it was a middle school fan girl. Seeing her idol looking at her, she covered her mouth embarrassedly. Quan Xingai smiled even more, walked over to look at the girl and said with a smile: "Sister, the most important thing for you now is to study hard and attend class. Today is a school day, why are you at the company gate?"
"I...I was on sick leave a few days ago, so today is the last day and I wanted to come and see unnie." The fan saw that the idol's expression was clearly smiling but inexplicably very imposing, and couldn't help but answer in a low voice.
"Don't skip classes, otherwise..." The smiling Quan Xingai switched to a look at Tomie, and the little fan was really startled. When she came to her senses, her idol had already entered the company.
Ahhhhhhhhhhhh————This is so exciting, okay!
Little fans pulled their friends aside and screamed. Sarah is even more attractive and beautiful this time around! She's suddenly become a big star!
This short video was quickly posted on social media. Quan Xingai is already pretty, and this intuitive transformation from a sweet girl to a villain has attracted a group of passers-by who didn’t know her well to listen to her new song. "VIXEN VIRUS" has once again successfully reversed the decline, with the number of listeners and ranking on the charts being steadily high.
While passersby were still marveling at Jeon Seong-ae's face-changing video, Jeon Seong-ae herself had already finished filming a practice room dance video with her teammates under the guidance of the company's staff.
The complete version in the practice room is naturally complex and beautiful. It is a dance that has been practiced for several months with some slight changes to the movements. The general atmosphere still maintains the characteristics of a girl group dance. However, the staff found that Xingai's return this time is really completely different. Even in a team of four, her characteristics can't be suppressed. It's obviously the same movements, but when Xingai dances, it is particularly attractive.
Is this the legendary star flavor?
Moreover, her state when she is working and when she is not working is completely different. RD TV's camera faithfully records how Quan Xingai transforms from a sloth when resting to the full-of-charm Tomie when working.

The short video version of the challenge of "VIXEN VIRUS" is as intuitive and memorable as a virus. The core part of "virus infection" is a two-person interactive mode. It starts with a wave-like finger dance with a sweet smile, then flips the palm, tilts the head and grabs the collar with a yandere smile, then leans sideways and thrusts the hips to transmit the virus, and finally touches each other's cheeks to complete the infection.
After filming the short video at the company, everyone, still wearing their MV uniforms, drove to other companies with whom they had good relationships to complete various promotional shoots for the company. For small companies, even if they agreed, it was best to take the initiative, and the first people to work with were usually idols they had contacted before, or actors who had filmed commercials or music videos with them.
The last stop was Song Chang's company. After filming the MV, they would sometimes chat on Kakao, but at that time Quan Xing Ai still had to make up for his studies so they didn't chat very often. The last time they sent a message was when Song Chang told his agent about his promotional suggestion for the challenge and the agent agreed.
I looked back at the messages, ah - it seems I forgot to reply, forget it, I'll just check Toktik again.
Yes, after Quan Xingai shot a bunch of short videos today, she finally discovered that there are so many tricks in Korean entertainment now. A single short video can be played with various dance beats, cha challenges, cross-dressing challenges... She didn't have these things in the past. Everyone played in the traditional way. Quan, the former superstar Xingai, who likes novelty, suddenly became addicted to this new thing called short videos.
"Why are you hiding here and watching videos by yourself?" Quan Xingai followed his teammates, walking at the back as usual, wearing a mask and watching Toktik, and then Song Cang's voice sounded from above his head.
"Oh my, you scared me, Song Cangxi!" Quan Xingai said unhappily.
"When I saw you all coming in, I immediately spotted Tomie-san at the back, who was slacking off with her head down." Song Kang tilted his head to look at her, imitating the way she did in the music video for All Stars Love.
"Puppy Oppa, you're so quick, you've already changed into the clothes from the MV." Quan Xingai looked up and saw that Song Cang was already dressed like the handsome senior in the MV.
"Yeah, I've been waiting for you to come and shoot a short video together. But what is a puppy Oppa? Am I a dog?" The boy blinked and flirted openly.
Quan Xingai raised the corner of his lips and smiled, "Yes, you are so dog-like, your eyes are bright, let's do the double-cha later, are you afraid of being in the public opinion with me?"
"Let me think about it, your rumored boyfriend seems to be GD Sunbaenim, so I'm lucky, right?"
Hearing the familiar name, Quan Xingai burst out laughing. "Then let's all ride on his popularity. GDVS Song Cang, the evil actress Xingai actually wants it all... How about this title?"
Song Chang also laughed, "Xing Aixi is such a greedy child. After filming, do you want to go out for dinner together tonight? I know a very good pub. Do you drink?"
That's really direct, but since he's handsome, it's not impossible to have some ambiguity, without having to be responsible for a relationship... Quan Xingai's eyes rolled around, then nodded, "Okay, let's go drink."
The two of them had already made an appointment for their after-get off work schedule after walking back and forth.
The subsequent challenge shooting was very quick. They found an empty garden. First, Song Chang and Quan Xingai filmed the first finger dance part in the video, and then their teammates would appear like a virus spreading and multiplying, completing all the movements.
When encountering the camera, the passive charm-increasing skill will be activated. The wavy hand movements are cute and a little weird, and the yandere and cute expression on the face is eye-catching. When it comes to the viral infection dance, he will playfully push the teammates who join later out of the screen one by one until he leaves the screen too. Finally, he will reach out a hand from outside the picture to grab Song Cang's collar and pull him directly out of the frame.
"Oh my, isn't this style of cha a bit bold?" Chi Mingzhen was a little unsure, but after shooting the materials, she could just edit them later.
"They are all dressed like in the MV, which is actually quite interesting as a plot." Song Chang watched the video and thought it was good.
Quan Xingai nodded, she felt the same way.
"Although it seems a bit ambiguous, Song Cangxi is an actor, so I think it should be okay." Yin Yanzhen said.
"Let's give it a try anyway. Everything is a new concept for this comeback, so we might as well go big." Kim Eun-mi was excited.
The subsequent discussion can be carried out back in the company. After shooting the video, today's busy day is finally over. In everyone's shocked eyes, Quan Xingai changed into ordinary clothes in the locker room and told her teammates and assistant that she wanted to go to the pub for a drink with Song Kang.
"Oh my God, Xing'ai is finally going to be in love!!" The one who was even more excited than Quan Xing'ai was Park Jinwen. The three of them had been in love for several rounds, but Xing'ai was the only one who was in a bad mood and in a bad state. It was not until this return that she finally recovered her spirits.
"...Forget it, this guy, seeing how busy she has been lately, just give her some free time, but you still have to tell her to be careful not to be photographed!" Chi Mingzhen shook her head and texted the girl while muttering to herself.
As for Quan Xingai, she had already gotten into Song Cang's car to drink and flirt with men.

"Are you feeling unwell lately?" Li Zhuhe and Quan Zhilong came out for a drink together, and he spoke in a gossipy way about the recent buzz on the Internet.
"What do you mean?" Quan Zhilong wore brown glasses and drank slowly from his wine glass.
"Like it, you're like the same girl for a month straight, what are you trying to do? Is there really a story?"
"What kind of story is that? It's more like an accident..." Quan Zhilong shook his head. What kind of story could there be between him and a junior who was so much younger than him? However, he did give the like on purpose.
"It seems there is indeed a story?" Li Zhuhe became more interested.
"Stop gossiping." Kwon Ji-yong rolled his eyes speechlessly at his bestie, put down his wine glass and prepared to go to the bathroom. Then he looked up and passed Li Zhuhe who was diagonally opposite him. He narrowed his eyes. What a coincidence, he met his rumored girlfriend again.
Li Zhuhe followed Kwon Ji-yong's gaze and raised his eyebrows in understanding. Oh, it was the girl named Jeon Xingai. She was indeed beautiful, with a sweet smile and delicate features. She could definitely be an actress.
"What a coincidence, the other party seems to be on a date. It turns out you two are really not in a relationship." Although he knew that they were not in a romantic relationship, Li Zhuhe still wanted to make fun of his friend.
"To be honest, the company wanted to hype up a relationship between me and my junior sister, so I just deliberately asked Quan Xing to like the post. Okay, it's a bit unkind. I'm not familiar with the other female idols, and no one would believe them. It just so happened that they are making a comeback and need news. It also just so happened that she and I had a scandal, and I had some contact with her. She is very bold and doesn't care about likes. She just treats it as a hype." Quan Zhilong retracted his gaze and spoke lightly.
After he finished speaking, Li Zhuhe wanted to ask his friend why he had such strong feelings for a stranger junior, but Zhilong in front of him glanced at Quan Xingai who was sitting diagonally across from him, pursed his lips, and left to go to the bathroom.
In the mirror, Quan Zhilong saw his unshaven face, a pair of light-colored glasses on his nose, and a listless look. His military service was over, and with no contract yet, he found himself completely burned out on the company, the team, and his work.
What a coincidence that when he came out, he ran into the "rumored girlfriend" who was dating diagonally across from him just now. She obviously saw him too.
"Oh, it's Zhilong-Oppa."
Look, look, she's so disrespectful. When she saw me, she put on a playful smile and dragged out the words until the very end before calling me Oppa. Quan Zhilong frowned again. He didn't want to pay any attention to this guy and just walked past him.
"I haven't thanked you for giving me the thumbs up yet. It has made our comeback more popular than ever before." The girl spoke as she walked past Quan Xing Ai.
"..." Quan Zhilong paused and rubbed his back teeth. He had indeed taken advantage of the other party. "Sorry, did a lot of boring people say anything to you after liking your post?"
"Thanks to you, Senior, I'm still holding on. But Senior, how have you been lately?"
Quan Zhilong looked puzzled. He? He was fine!
Quan Xingai saw that Quan Zhilong didn't answer and had a puzzled expression on his face, and asked again: "The last time I saw you, you were still in high spirits and mocking me. How come you have become more and more decadent after a few months?" Her eyes looked very serious, and she seemed to have a concerned smile, but she couldn't help but playful hands. She took a step forward and stroked the stubble on Quan Zhilong's chin with her fingers, as if she was petting a cat. The distance between the two was less than 30 centimeters.
Quan Xiaomao cautiously grasped Quan Xingai's wrist, and as if he had noticed the ambiguous distance between them, he let go of her wrist in annoyance, "Quan Xingai!"
"Sorry, I wanted to tease you, Senior, but you look like you have a lot on your mind."
Quan Zhilong was stunned for a moment, then remembered something and became angry again. What kind of attitude is this? Is this guy trying to flirt with him? Isn't she still dating? Damn it!
"Are you concerned about me? I have no obligation to become what others want me to be." Quan Zhilong crossed his arms in a defensive posture.
Quan Xingai shrugged, it was really fun to tease the kitten, "Actually, I really just care about my seniors. If you are unhappy, and liking my posts can make you happy - then give me a few more likes. I don't mind those random news." Quan Xingai shrugged and said half-jokingly.
"That's a nice thought for you. You're a very brave junior. What's your name? Quan Xing'ai? It should be Quan Dare. But I'm sorry, I think you'd better go back to your date. You don't need to care about or concern yourself with your senior's life or personal status." He gave a polite business smile, raised his chin like a proud ragdoll cat, and left after he finished speaking.
Quan Xingai stood there, watching the man's unhappy back, tilting his head. This guy's temper had become so volatile now. Waiji, his team, and the pressure from the outside world had really taken a toll on him. They were clearly not familiar with each other, but this guy had inexplicably liked his post, and even after liking it, he wouldn't even allow her to ask a few questions. At this point, they couldn't even have a normal conversation; it seemed like every exchange was filled with sarcasm.
She smiled softly. Although she was dressed like an uncle, when she was angry she would look like a kitten with its fur standing on end. She was still exactly the same as she was 10 years ago. Very cute.
But after meeting her old lover again, she seemed to have lost the mood to play ambiguously with the new little puppy.
