Jiang Ya: "..."
Last year when he shot the cover of "Alex" for "Wings", he felt that the members were very lively. Now, looking at it again, they are obviously too lively.
After filming the "Flying" commercial, filming the laptop commercial was much easier. At first, the members were inexperienced, but as they accumulated filming opportunities, they gradually became more comfortable in front of the camera, from Xie Mingxuan to Ji Yan.
"Finally finished filming." Xie Mingxuan breathed a sigh of relief. "I guess I'm still not very good at this."
"You'll get used to it eventually."
Xie Mingxuan's personality is not as outgoing as Lu Wei's and Fang Yu's; he can only act more naturally on stage.
"Old Xie, you've already done a great job, okay? Don't underestimate yourself." Fang Yu tapped Xie Mingxuan on the chest.
"Maybe it's because I don't yet have that real feeling of being a big star," Xie Mingxuan shrugged. "It feels like something only the stars on TV when I was a kid would do."
“Actually, me too.” Lu Wei smiled. “When fans call my name, it takes me a long time to realize that they are calling me.”
"What's wrong with you two?" Fang Yu silently observed them. "Why are you suddenly feeling sentimental?"
"Because it's really painful to do something you're not good at?" Ji Yan nodded, "I often think that way when I'm dancing."
“Teacher Ji…” Fang Yu put his arm around Ji Yan’s shoulder, “Don’t make slacking off sound so noble.”
Ji Yan gave a fake smile: "You've been found out?"
"Because I know your true nature too well." Fang Yu smiled at him, revealing a row of neat teeth.
Ji Yan: "...That's not called slacking off, it's called letting your body fully relax after a tiring practice session."
"And then you just relaxed all day?" Lu Wei looked at him.
Ji Yan met Lu Wei's gaze: "Brother Wei, I had no idea you loved dancing so much."
I'm clearly terrible at dancing myself, okay?
In short, each member of "Tsubasa" has their own strengths and weaknesses, but as members of "Tsubasa", they have all put in a lot of effort.
They may not be outstanding as individuals, but as members of "Wings," they cannot be.
...
The interview with Music Magazine is scheduled to begin in late February, and the content will be published in the online edition of Music Magazine in early March.
This is also the first time that "Wings" has been interviewed as a professional singer. Before this, "Wings" had been interviewed many times, but they were basically about album sales figures and gossip about the members, and were not very professional.
During the interview, Wings was asked when their next album would be released.
"The release of 'Mist' and 'At 23' was less than a year apart, and there has been no news in the music industry this year about you releasing a new album. The members haven't given any specific details either. Can you tell us about it?"
"As for the new album, it should be released some time later, at the end of this year or the first half of next year." Xie Mingxuan said seriously, "We haven't had enough time to think about 'Mist' and 'At 23'. We hope to have some time to reflect before the release of the next album."
“We want to write more songs. Lao Xie has the heaviest workload for each album. If possible, we’d like to try to share the burden with him,” Lu Wei said.
"I mainly want to explore my own creative talent," Ji Yan smiled slightly. "After all, I have the best role model by my side."
The host continued, "Each member wrote songs for both the albums 'Mist' and 'At 23,' so which song is your favorite?"
Xie Mingxuan thought for a moment: "I should be 'Is It Black or White'."
"The Future." Ji Yan and Lu Wei both chose the future.
“Then I’ll choose Teacher Ji’s ‘Leap’. The more you listen to this song, the more you get tired of it, and there are also many cover versions online.”
Since the interview took place at DW Entertainment, the staff of Music Magazine entered Yi's apartment and the recording studio he usually used, where there were plenty of traces of the creation of the albums "Mist" and "At 23". Music Magazine photographed Xie Mingxuan and Ji Yan's bookshelves, Lu Wei's guitar, and Fang Yu's worn-out sneakers.
In terms of creative concepts, the exchange between Music Magazine and Wings went even deeper. The creative background of the two albums, the selection of the title track, and the troubles encountered by the members during the creative process were all recorded. The host dug deeper and deeper, and finally asked: "Who worked the hardest during the creation of the two albums?"
Ji Yan pointed directly at Xie Mingxuan: "Old Xie."
But to his surprise, Xie Mingxuan, Lu Wei, and Fang Yu all pointed at him and said, "Teacher Ji, right?"
The host also became curious: "What's the reason?"
"Old Xie has written the most songs, and in addition to writing his own, he also teaches me how to write songs. Half of the books on my bookshelf were recommended by Old Xie."
“I chose Teacher Ji because he was in a bad state during the creation period of ‘Mist’. He was affected by family factors, and he also encountered troubles after the album was released. These things affected him, but he would not tell us about these things.”
"Because Teacher Ji's foundation was not good enough at the time, he really learned little by little before he was able to write the song 'Silent Confession'. During the time he was writing 'Leap', he also had to prepare for a new movie. He was probably the busiest among us."
When facing the reporters' cameras, Fang Yu and Lu Wei were particularly serious. They remembered some details that Ji Yan himself had forgotten very clearly. In fact, the creation of the albums "Mist" and "At 23" was not as simple as outsiders imagined. Fang Yu and Lu Wei both had moments of breakdown.
But they always remember how hard their partners worked.
From this perspective, Ji Yan is actually the same.
Because their teammates are working hard, they don't want to fall behind or become a burden to the group, so they unconsciously become more diligent.
Ji Yan constantly felt the favoritism shown to him by Xie Mingxuan and the others.
...
The music magazine summarized the interview very quickly. After the final draft was checked by DW Entertainment, the interview article was published in the magazine's March digital issue as quickly as possible.
The main content of this issue is an exclusive interview with "Yi", hence "Yi" is also the cover figure.
Since "Wings" has appeared more often in fashion magazines, fans were initially a little unaccustomed to the layout of this issue of "Music World" where there was far more text than pictures. However, after reading through the interview, fans gradually learned more about "Wings".
“The song ‘Mist’ was originally created by Wings with the idea of releasing their last album. No wonder Teacher Ji was so frustrated when ‘DoULike’ caused trouble.”
"The friendship in our group is unbeatable; they always manage to bring tears to my eyes in unexpected places."
“I never thought I would be so hurt by an interview one day—they said they were prepared to disband after releasing the album, and there were always mocking voices during the creative process.”
"Honestly, after all these years of following celebrities, this is the first time I've seen so many books featured in an interview with my idol."
"Did Mr. Ji, who wrote 'The Silent Confession,' really have no musical background at the time? Then he must be a genius among geniuses."
"The reasons why 'Mist' and 'At 23' are so good are all in this interview. I just know that I really didn't love the wrong person. I look forward to Wings' next album."
"Looking forward to Wings' next album."
So far, fans have seen the dazzling "Tsubasa" on stage, and their lively side can also be seen from the occasional leaks of the members' whereabouts. But this interview shows the "Tsubasa" at work to the fans.
The photos taken by *Music Magazine* aren't particularly sophisticated, far less fashionable than those in top-tier publications like *Alex* and *Fashion*, but the accompanying images in the lengthy articles are all carefully selected.
The guitar that Xie Mingxuan gave to Ji Yan as a birthday gift accompanied him in completing the composition of "Leap".
The windowsill was Ji Yan's activity area. He really wanted to have a cat, but the cat didn't like the windowsill or him, so his manager eventually took it home to keep.
Xie Mingxuan reads at least six books a month on average.
When Lu Wei was at her most distraught, she would sing to a potted plant, and that plant suddenly bloomed after the release of "At 23".
The last thing to appear in the picture is a mop. The caption reads: Fang Yu trains every day. When it's inconvenient for him to go to the gym, he trains indoors. Worried about getting the floor dirty with his sweat, he uses this mop to clean it.
In its final summary, Music magazine wrote: "Wings' success seems effortless, with each album exceeding expectations, but they were not born that way. People focus on the results, and the process seems to be just a trivial detail."
"However, no success is achieved overnight. The success of the group comes from the continuous efforts of the members. Each of them, for themselves or for their partners, does their best to fight, and finally they can grow wings and fly."
"Waaaaah, I'll always love Wings!"
"I will always love Wings +1, because they are young, because they are an idol group, so their efforts always seem to be misunderstood, but it's okay, it's enough that I know!"
The impact of this interview in "The Music World" magazine was not limited to the fan community. After all, "The Music World" is a relatively professional magazine, and its audience consists mainly of fans who truly love music. After the magazine interview, the sales of "Mist" and "At 23" saw a small increase.
The music magazine also achieved its highest sales volume since its digital edition was launched.
...
On the other side of City A.
Looking at Ning Wei, who had printed out the interview with "The Music Scene," Duan Yiran was caught in a dilemma, unsure whether to complain or remain speechless.
All he could say was, "You can write letters, right? You can also send WeChat messages, right?"
The communication channels were so open, yet this person still did it!
Surprisingly! He was underlining key phrases with a pen.
What kind of behavior is this that is typical of elementary school students?
Duan Yiran was originally just speechless about Ning Wei's behavior, but now he was speechless to the extreme, feeling like he could stuff Ning Wei into a cannon and fire him at DW Entertainment.
Especially after Ning Wei and Ji Yan went out together, Duan Yiran felt like she could smell the sour stench of love.
—Although those two probably don't think so.
You idiots, you're all idiots!
A couple of days ago, some idiot asked him if it would be too abrupt to give a violin to a friend he had just met.
Duan Yiran asked which one it was, and Ning Wei sent him a picture.
After confirming the number of zeros on the violin's price tag, Duan Yiran could only chuckle.
friend.
A friend I just met.
oh.
