Chapter Twenty-Two What's Your Name?

ts dimmed, EXO's VCR officially began to play. The fans in the audience erupted in cheers and screams. Just as the members were about to climb onto the faux mountain, Park Ji-won suddenly said:"By th...“…………”

Hearing this tone of voice, and with a little more thought, Qi Jingyuan almost guessed the general idea of what had happened.

It's just like what trainees would do. Even though he wasn't sure if his guess was right, he saw that the girl wasn't in a good mood, so he didn't ask any further questions.

"It's not too late to know now.... Recently, trainees have been practicing on the second and third floors of the left building until the right building is repaired."

Chi Jingyuan noticed that a few people on the side of the road seemed to be looking over. He added, "Let's go in first. What's your name"

"Zhou... Zhou Tzuyu."

The girl followed closely behind Chi Jingyuan, her head bowed as she replied softly.

"...

"

Chi Jingyuan nodded, and the two walked inside. Chi Jingyuan greeted the front desk in Korean with a smile, then smoothly switched to Xia Wen: "The trainees from the Peninsula are more likely to be exclusive and their attitude towards newcomers isn't very good. When I first started school, it was like that too."

Chi Jingyuan didn't offer any consolation, he simply stated the facts in a calm tone.

This little girl named Tzuyu looks like another Xia nationality trying to make it in the peninsula entertainment industry. It's so young, she came here alone to be a trainee. Ji-yeong doesn't know what to say.

However, the other party gave off a pretty good vibe. You could tell they were well-raised, and he seemed to have some fondness for people of Chinese descent. So he just said a few words.

The key is that he's too young, looks rather introverted and not very bright, making it hard to resist giving him a few pointers.

Due to this psychology, he didn't take the elevator. The two walked up the stairs slowly together.

"...Zhou Tzuyu nodded but didn't speak.

"

She seems to be a quiet person, and I don't know if she's like this with everyone or just with some strangers.

However, the language barrier is indeed a big problem. If you want to stay here as a trainee for a long time, this is the first thing that needs to be solved." Ji Jingyuan glanced at her, wondering how someone who didn't speak Korean could live here alone.

"I've been trying hard, but it feels really difficult."

This time, Zhou Tzuyu spoke, her voice laced with a hint of grievance.

“…………”

Chi Jingyuan's mouth twitched. He might not be great at academics, but he had a natural talent for language. He couldn't fully grasp how difficult the other person's words were.

He didn't say much more, changing the subject: "From your accent, you're from Wanwan, right"

"Yes, but can you still hear Xia Wen's accent"

After chatting for a bit, Zhou Tzuyu's emotions seemed to calm down a little. Hearing this, she curiously tilted her head and looked at Ji Jingyuan.

"I've been to Wanwan before, the accent there is very unique, you can tell just by listening."

Chi Jingyuan nodded. His Xia Wen only spoke Mandarin, with a curved accent somewhat similar to Mandarin but with a unique tone. He had even specially imitated one or two sentences when he went to an event before.

"Have you already debuted" Zhou Tzuyu looked at him in surprise.

"It's EXO, an all-male group from ** Entertainment," Ji-gyeong nodded, taking off his mask and giving her a small smirk.

"I seem to have heard of..." Zhou Tzuyu saw Ji Kyeong-won and paused, as if somewhat awkward, her gaze dropping, flickering back with a response.

Before she came to the peninsula, she didn't know who Park Jin-young was. She thought he was some kind of comedian. After coming here, she couldn't speak the language. Even though she was a trainee and considered an insider, she didn't have any opportunities to get to know him. She just seemed to have heard the name of this group once.

"It's not very popular, so it's normal that you haven't heard of it."

Chi Jingyuan didn't mind, nodded and changed the subject. He looked at the other person and said in a mimicking voice, using Wanwan's accent: “I learned a phrase from Wanwan, 'You're really annoying,' how is it Does it sound like a local”

His accent was a little strange, it sounded awkward.

"Not like at all!"

Zhou Tzuyu curled her lips, glanced at him, then lowered her eyes: “Besides, that phrase isn’t a good thing to say in our place.”

Unconsciously, the tone of their conversation became more lively.

"Is that so Too bad, I only know this one phrase. It's still pretty difficult for me to imitate the way you all speak."

Chi Jingyuan shrugged, tasted the tone he had just used, and repeated it again: "You're really a pain in the ass."

"It's still not like it at all!"

Zhou Tzuyu glanced at him, a slight quirk to her lips. She couldn't help but retort, "You're the one who's being a pain."

Soon, the two walked to the corner of the second-floor stairs. Currently, JYP's trainees are practicing on this side of the second floor.

"Okay, I'm going up first. Good luck!"

Chi Jingyuan waved at her, smiled and said goodbye, then continued walking upstairs.

"Bye bye."

Chou Tzu-yu lightly shook her hand and replied, biting her lower lip and lowering her head to watch Ji-seong Yuan continue up the stairs with her peripheral vision. Her fingers twisted together in front of her as she stood quietly waiting for him to leave.

She stood at the foot of the stairs, completely alone. The silence around her was palpable. The loneliness she had previously managed to shake off seemed to have crept back in unnoticed, and her youthful face bore a look of pitiful vulnerability.

"Ugh..."

Chi Jingyuan had just gone upstairs and taken a few steps when he turned his head casually, his footsteps coming to a halt. He tilted his head and thought for a moment, then suddenly let out a chuckle, turned around, and walked back down: "Zhou... Tzuyu, did you bring your phone"

"Hmm..."

Zhou Tzuyu nodded and took out a phone from her bag, holding it in her hand.

"So, remember this, my phone number is 1XXXXXXXX. If you encounter any difficulties that you can't resolve, feel free to call me for help...but just leave the minor things alone."

Chi Jingyuan quickly reported a string of phone numbers. Watching the other party write them down, he waved his hand again: "This time it's really goodbye."

After he finished speaking, he smiled at the other person and then turned upstairs without saying anything else.

What's your name How do I note it down

Seeing Ji Jingyuan's figure quickly leave, Zhou Tzuyu couldn't help but ask.

Chi Jingyuan didn't turn around. He raised his right hand casually and waved it, his voice sounding languid:

"My name is Motorcycle."

…………

After separating, Zhou Tzuyu cautiously walked into the temporary practice room. At this time, everyone inside had already been practicing for a while.

When she walked in, many people's movements noticeably slowed. They exchanged glances and wore strange smiles. Those standing close whispered a few words to each other.

Chou Tzu-yu's expression remained calm. After placing her bag down, she walked over to the side and joined in the practice, completely ignoring the gazes directed towards her as if they weren't looking at her at all.

As for those hushed whispers, she couldn't understand them anyway, so she didn't care.

Seeing that she showed no reaction, the few who had been watching her lost interest and stopped paying attention to her.

Zhou Tzuyu moved her body slowly to the music, but her eyes were a little vacant. Her mind was replaying their recent encounter, and she felt an inexplicable sense of emotion. At the same time, a faint smile appeared on her face.

…………

He clearly said it was EXO, just search for a picture to see the names. Why do you still have to ask It seems like Zhou Tzuyu isn't very bright.

However, he rarely takes the initiative to tell others his contact information. This little girl really gives off a very special feeling.

After the farewell, Chi Jingyuan sat in the meeting room, listening to the continuous discussions from both company personnel while his mind was wandering.

After a series of discussions, some details are still under negotiation, but the general framework for cooperation has almost been finalized. Pool Kyung-won will form a temporary group with Suzy Bae to release a single first. It is tentatively decided that there will be no physical album released.

The song has not yet been officially confirmed. After listening to the demo that Ji-won Park brought, Park Jin-young and the others were impressed and expressed their high hopes for this song.

But of course, it won't be decided on the spot. After all, there are still several candidate tracks, and JYP will also bring out songs from his own music library. It's even possible that Park Jin-young will try writing a song himself. The selection process needs to be carefully considered.

However, due to the deadlines on both sides, we won't officially start the project for a while. We'll only be doing some preparatory work.

EXO is currently preparing for their comeback in a meticulous and intense manner, swamped with work every day. From now until August when the new album is released, they barely have any free time.

IU is the same, she recently collaborated with Lee Seung Gi to star in the TV series "Nine," and has been filming on set these days, so she's not at the company.

The specific implementation date of the plan is tentatively scheduled for after September, and we will coordinate the time based on both parties' availability then.

After this, there will be some meetings to discuss the details, but Chi Jingyuan will no longer need to participate.

That's it, this matter is now officially settled.

…………

Don't worry about the collaboration project, Chi Jingyuan naturally focused his mind on preparing for his return. Every day, he practiced with the members from early morning till late at night, and their progress was quite good.

That day, after just finishing a dance and taking a short break in the practice room, Kim Jun-myeon suddenly exclaimed as he was scrolling through his phone:

"Oh my, Jingyuan! You're on fire again!"

The Idols Sports Festival officially aired the day before yesterday.
