79 Daily Work
In fact, Stary’s second album recording did not require such a long period of seclusion. After going through a relatively difficult creative phase, the rest of the album recording, choreography and MV were all very smooth. Su Chen and Yu Le were also able to use their spare time to learn how to drive.
Originally, Yan Fan did not have a driver's license. He learned for a few days before going to college, and then came to Yuanxin in his freshman year. After that, he said goodbye to summer and winter vacations early, so he naturally did not have time to pass the driver's license test.
There was originally a chance this time. Su Chen and Yu Le both wanted to take the test. Pei Zijin also said that if they wanted to drive long distances, they should take this opportunity to practice again. Among the five people, only Jin Zeyu, who always liked to travel around, had better driving skills. In addition to the motor vehicle license, he also had a motorcycle license. When driving by himself, he would be the main driver, and the others would help. Yan Fan hesitated for a long time, and decided not to take the test this time.
He took the initiative to undertake the choreography work for most of the pieces in his second major.
For an album that claims to be 50% original, it is definitely not enough for Stary to only participate in the lyrics and composition. The choreography work is not as simple as the usual freestyle. Every detail of the stage for five people must be repeatedly designed. For this reason, Yan Fan spent almost every day in the practice room and did not go to the driving school for further studies with his brothers.
In his words, isn't it enough for a car with five people and four drivers?
By the time Su Chen and Yu Le both got their driver's licenses, the final recording of the second album was almost finished. The production crew of the new group variety show had already surveyed the driving route in advance. It wasn't a very difficult journey, but the scenery was beautiful.
Yuan Xiao said that they could hold a live broadcast to officially announce the new group variety show to fans.
The live broadcast was held at the company. Yuanxin has always been very strict in protecting Stary's private life. Until now, no fan has been able to determine Stary's exact residence from any clues. This live broadcast was no exception. The five people refreshed their live broadcast in their own lounge.
As for group variety shows, they are always a connection between them and their fans. The live broadcast format is just right for them to chat about daily life and the format of the show. There is no need for any other promotion, but it still became a hot topic within five minutes of its launch.
"Hello hello."
The camera was set up and the horizontal screen of the mobile phone was pointed at the five people. Yan Fan studied her beauty in front of the camera, then ran to turn on a light.
“Is it already on air now?”
After receiving the reply that the show had already started, Pei Zijin hurriedly gathered his free-spirited brothers together and greeted the camera first according to the fixed procedure: "Hello everyone, we are——"
"Stary!"
Stary doesn't often do such life live broadcasts. Although fans have been calling for it, the five of them are always busy, and most of the opportunities for live broadcasts are for work. When a live broadcast where they can really chat starts, both sides find it very novel.
Pei Zijin understood that there might be passers-by who clicked in without knowing why, so he led everyone to introduce themselves. The title of their live broadcast today was to chat about their recent situation. Fans all knew that their second album should be born soon, and most of the comments in the barrage were about the second album.
Yu Le opened his own account and entered the live broadcast room, standing in the middle of the others to read the comments, and responded to the questions that he could clearly see:
"The second album has basically been recorded and entered the post-production stage. Yes, we have been busy with this during this period. It can be said that the final result should be pretty good, right?" Yu Le raised his head and looked at his brothers, "At least we are all very satisfied, and hope that everyone will like it hehe."
"How many songs are there in the second album... Can I tell you?" Jin Zeyu looked outside the camera to find Yuan Xiao and his agent, and only revealed a little after getting their approval, "It's about the same as the first album, twelve songs, definitely a lot of songs."
One and two albums, plus "Dawn" and the promotional song he sang for a certain platform at the beginning of this year, if the requirements are lower, it can be enough for a medium-sized concert.
"Hey, I saw that my dear little Stary asked what we have done recently besides the second album?" He finally got to the point. In order to prepare for the surprise of Xuanxin's group variety show today, Stary's recent micro-variety shows did not reveal any news about learning to drive or taking the driver's license test, until the day before yesterday when Su Chen and Yu Le got their driver's licenses.
The two younger brothers could no longer hide the smug looks on their faces. They kept the brand new, shiny leather notebooks in their pockets for the past two days and wanted to hold them in their arms even when they slept.
Yu Le put the cover of his driver's license in front of the camera, showing it in all directions as proof of his entry into the adult world: "Ahahaha, look at what this is!"
"C1! Brand new! Just got it! I passed the second test on the first try! What a car god! What a mechanical genius! Hahahaha!"
Behind him, Su Chen also restrained himself a little but was no less proud as he turned 360 degrees to show off his new driver's license. After all, he was a smart kid. He and Yu Le didn't experience any major difficulties in the process of learning to drive. Perhaps it was because they had watched their parents drive since they were young, so they got the hang of it quickly and passed subjects one to four in one go.
In Yu Le's words, maybe this is a gifted talent.
Although Jin Zeyu didn't understand why the two kids could be so excited for so long, he still dutifully reported the comments on the screen that were like coaxing children:
"Oh, wow, wow, that's great, great, great, really good, really good."
Yu Le turned around speechlessly, his butt facing his brother: "Change to manual labor, brother."
Pei Zijin let the two kids show off for a long time before pulling them back and starting to talk about today's business: "Now everyone might be asking, hey, why did two members of Stary suddenly learn to drive?"
Yan Fan squatted beside him and repeated, "Why——"
Today's excitement has nothing to do with him, but it doesn't matter. When you are the only one in the group without a driver's license, it means that the remaining four people are your drivers.
"And why are we suddenly broadcasting live today?"
Su Chen and Yu Le thought it was fun, so they decided to join Yan Fan's repeater sequence. As soon as Jin Zeyu saw their faces, he knew what they were going to do. The four of them stretched out their voices together to create an echo: "Why -"
Pei Zijin had already developed a calm mind over the past year. He remained calm even when his younger brother was playing and fighting. No matter how miserable the situation was, he would always finish his work first. He was truly an old man at a young age.
"Because we are about to record our new group variety show!"
“General, general, general!”
Su Chen and Yan Fan each pulled out a poster and showed it in front of the camera. On the poster was a sunny highway, snowy mountains and grasslands, with a few artistic characters at the top - "Flashing Adventures", which was obviously the name of the new variety show.
The barrage also became excited at this time, new group variety show!
For many fans who are not convenient to go offline, the news of the group variety show is simply the best. Yuan Xin has always been generous in the length and materials of the program, and they will be able to have a good life with enough food in the future.
A large number of questions quickly appeared on the screen. What kind of program requires two brothers to take a driver's license test? Is it a racing program? Or some kind of competition? Why is the poster a landscape photo? Where are they going to shoot a group show?
Yu Le sat in the front row, recommending passionately to the camera, acting like a professional anchor: "Stary's five-member self-driving tour around Xinjiang, 2,400 kilometers of the most beautiful route, you deserve it."
Self-driving tour! Beautiful Xinjiang!
It’s actually a travel show!
Yuanxin is worthy of being known as a company that is known as a paradise for domestic entertainment fans. Every plan is romantic and heartwarming. At this moment, the Stary fans in front of the screen are already bubbling with happiness. Five people are going out to play together, or driving by themselves, singing all the way north along the snow-capped mountains and grasslands. Just thinking about it makes them happy.
"The new group show is actually just the five of us taking everyone out to play. The entire trip will last for 15 days. We will drive through the entire Ili River Valley, enjoy the beautiful scenery, follow the wind and wild flowers, and even camp in the middle."
"During the trip, we will also post a vlog of the trip on Stary's account every day, and will also broadcast our daily life and game live at regular intervals. As for the edited feature film, it will be released on the platform later after the trip."
Yu Le interrupted: "We will also shoot the vlog ourselves~"
Jin Zeyu held his phone and kept looking at the questions on the barrage, and from time to time he conveyed some questions that could be answered to his brothers:
"Are we driving the car? Of course we are driving the car~" Yan Fan looked at Su Chen and Yu Le with curved eyes, "Otherwise, what were these two doing with that series of moves just now?"
"The format of the program is basically a leisurely and slow variety show, showing everyone the beautiful scenery and relaxing. As for any special plans, the production team will definitely not tell us, but overall it is definitely a relaxing and fun program~"
"How many episodes will there be... ten? This can only be determined after the recording is completed."
"Don't worry about safety issues, we have Old Jin here, and these two rookies won't be the main force." Yan Fan patted Jin Zeyu, who looked very reliable. "We will also pay attention to safety and drive slowly. We have plenty of time. Thank you for your concern."
"As for the specific time, I can't tell you yet. Please understand. When the vlog is released, everyone should know where we are."
Pei Zijin said seriously: "I would like to ask everyone here. We understand that you want to meet us, but this journey is the scenery we want to bring to you. If you are too eager, it may also bring some hidden dangers to the safety of both parties."
When it came to business, everyone became serious and stopped playing around. Before Yuan Xiao placed the order for the private plane, it was almost inevitable that their itinerary in Xinjiang would be leaked, and they would have to continue the transfer after landing.
Fame is a double-edged sword. For example, the five Stary kids were followed several times on their way home from the company building. If Yuan Xiao hadn't decided to let them live in her campus with a very high level of security, their whereabouts would have been exposed long ago.
Yu Le and Su Chen made a big cross on their chests, expressing their disrespect, misunderstanding and disapproval of the behavior.
"If the little satellite watching the live broadcast has the chance to meet us on the road, please try not to post it, so that we can share a complete surprise with everyone. Thank you very much here."
Pei Zijin tactfully rejected Reuters and illegitimate children. Such advice might not be useful, but as idols, they must have the right attitude. Once indulged, it will only get worse. Yuan Xiao and their agents have told them these things countless times, and they have long been engraved in their hearts.
After chatting for a few more words, Stary ended today's live broadcast and officially left work. They still had to go back to pack and buy luggage for their long-distance travel. Before boarding the plane to Xinjiang, the five of them only had one last job, which was to record the main stage of the second album in advance. This stage will be broadcast at the same time as the third public performance of the second season of "I Am Not Here" after their trip, firing the first shot of the second album promotion.
The five Starys have worked hard for a whole year, and it's time for them to take a break.
Yuan Xiao will not travel with them this time. As the five members of Stary have gradually matured and are able to handle most of the work with ease, Yuan Xiao's work focus has gradually shifted to the girl group trainees. She will still go on stage to give scores and comments at every performance, which is also one of the few times that Yuan Xiao makes regular appearances.
She runs her idol team with great care, and her fans can feel it. If you talk about the boss with the best reputation in the domestic entertainment industry on the Internet, you won't hear any other name except Yuan Xiao.
Although it is inevitable that some fans will have opinions about the company and its operations, but in comparison, Yuan Xiao is already an exception who is often spared by the fan circle.
In response to this, Yuan Xiao said: I am grateful for the support of my colleagues.
During the performance of "I Have No Future", more and more cameras were pointed at Yuan Xiao. Many fans were happy to take some beautiful pictures of Yuan Xiao in between taking pictures of themselves. After all, beautiful women, everyone likes to take a few more glances at them.
Some of these pictures were casually posted on Yuan Xiao’s super topic, while others were kept and put into the folders of the fans, waiting for the opportunity on April Fool’s Day next year.
Every year on April Fool's Day, the fans have to do something as usual, and the one before this year was no exception. On this day, there is no difference between the stars who post their own photos and those who don't. The fans will post photos of other stars on the fan page. Some are casual shots of a joint event, and some are friendly interactions with other stars who are related to the fans. Some fans will even communicate in advance and exchange photos with each other to increase the popularity of the fans on this day. It is friendly and lively.
At the end of this year's April Fool's Day event, a marketing account conducted a statistics and found that among all the fans who participated in the event, the one who posted the most photos was Yuan Xiao.
The boss of Yuanxin has inexplicably gone viral again. Some netizens made a table and counted that there are more than 80 fan clubs that have posted pictures of Yuan Xiao, shocking the domestic entertainment industry. More than half of them are fan clubs of artists under Yuanxin that were added since last year, including Stary’s group and personal fan clubs as well as the fan clubs of other Yuanxin artists. It is natural for the boss to post pictures, and there are also many fans from other fan clubs who took pictures of Yuan Xiao at various year-end ceremonies, saved them on their computers, and couldn’t help but edited them out, just in time to send them out on April Fools’ Day.
There are even group websites of "Codename: Heart Dance Stage" contestants SKY and Prism that specifically collected Yuan Xiao's pictures to post. Since the explosion of popularity at the beginning of the year, at least these two groups have seen a visibly increase in work, and their statistics have been rising. Posting Yuan Xiao's beautiful pictures also represents the gratitude of the website fans. A company like Yuanxin that is willing to lead the industry forward is worthy of this gratitude.
Even Yuan Xiao himself couldn't help but collect a few photos in the square that day. I can only say that they are worthy of being the strongest special forces fans in the domestic entertainment industry. The photos are indeed beautiful.
By the way, I also learn to continue to improve my skills. The second season of "I Have No Future" is about to be broadcast, and the Yuanxin family group website has also started to operate frequently again. From time to time when Yuan Xiao is on the road, he will check the comments section for fans' flattery to the photographer, and he feels that the fatigue from work has been reduced a lot.
Occasionally, someone could be seen suggesting in the comment section that the photographer of the group station could take a few photos of Yuan Xiao as well, and that it would be okay for the boss to update the photos on a daily basis. In response, Yuan Xiao simply smiled, keeping his achievements to himself.
