Volume 2 2010 Chapter 206 The Future
"SM's girl group style?"
Yi Haoyan was stumped by this question.
In the future, Joohyun and Seulgi are likely to debut together. According to SM’s habits, it is indeed necessary to familiarize themselves with their style as early as possible.
But……
"I have no idea."
The boy shook his head honestly.
"??? Is there anything else you don't know?" Both girls were a little surprised: "Isn't he a genius?"
"Geniuses are also human! All analyses are based on real information. SM's new girl group has just been launched, and they won't launch another girl group in the short term. How can I know SM's trends in the next few years?" Yi Haoyan said he was powerless.
"Tell us what you think! We can prepare for this early. Even if it's not accurate, it's better than knowing nothing at all."
Bae Joo-hyun looked at the boy with a firm gaze, and seemed to have great confidence in him.
"This... that's not right, don't blame me~"
"Haha! Okay! I don't blame you!"
It was rare to see Yi Haoyan in trouble, and Bae Joo-hyun smiled happily.
The boy scratched his head. " Girls' Generation may create history for girl groups, which will affect SM's style positioning for girl groups. The previous standards will change a lot. F(X) is SM's test of the market, trying out SM's latest music concept. But at present, the style seems to be too advanced and a bit too much, so maybe they will adjust it in the future. You can pay attention to the changes in F(X)'s style, which will serve as a reference for SM to produce girl groups in the future."
"Wow! Doesn't that make a lot of sense?" The young lady clapped her hands and praised: "I know you can do it!"
Is it that good?
Yi Haoyan himself doesn’t think so.
…
The future is always shrouded in a thick fog. Most people only realize how unpredictable fate is just before it happens. Only a very few people can get a glimpse of the future from daily glimpses, and thus infer the development of things and control the unknown fate.
Yi Haoyan is undoubtedly one of the very few people.
But even someone as smart as him will encounter many unpredictable things.
For example: the style of SM’s next girl group.
For example: Kwon Eun-bi.
This girl is simply the most unpredictable existence in Yi Haoyan's life after he fell ill.
After suddenly breaking into his life, the girl began to influence the trajectory of his life.
Choosing Yigao, starting a relationship, and even starting tutoring his classmates were all things the boy hadn't thought of before he met Eunbi.
Oh, and she made Yi Haoyan understand that he subconsciously liked people with inner strength.
The dance that fulfilled their promise last time brought unexpected gains to both of them. So when Yi Haoyan asked to execute the second "contract", it went smoothly.
Eunbi cooperated and prepared "Bo Peep Bo Peep". Don't think too much, it's not a sexy version, but a cute version with plush cat paws.
This version of the dance was not very difficult and was easy and cute to dance. Having had the experience of being there for the first time, both of them really enjoyed it.
Music, dance, smiles, girls and boys.
The sweetness of love flows in the empty practice room, decorating this space filled with sweat, tears and dreams.
It’s great to be young.
In addition to Kwon Eun-fei, there are some other out-of-line people and things in Yi Haoyan's life.
Of course, this is also completely unpredictable.
For example: Krystal Jung’s phone number.
"Yeah! We got one place!" Xiao Gaoleng's unique delicate voice came, with uncontrollable pride.
"What?" Yi Haoyan was very surprised. He had never heard that F(X) won first place in a song promotion!
"I said we got one! Hehe!"
"Yes! We finally got one!" Choi Sulli's voice was full of joy.
"Mo?" The boy was confused.
The two youngest members explained for a long time before Yi Haoyan finally understood.
From June 14 to 20, 2010, f(x) finally topped the Philippine austro plus sales statistics with "NU ABO". This championship title is the first championship title f(x) has won on the overseas song charts since its official debut.
Xiujing and Shirley, who had always been dissatisfied with Yi Haoyan, had been frustrated for a long time before they achieved something they thought was worth mentioning. They called to show off!
"Wow! You guys are so!"
Yi Haoyan didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Did you two discuss this phone call with your sisters?"
"Why do you ask that?"
The boy's tone made the two youngest members realize that something was wrong: "Why did you tell the sisters?"
"You guys! If any of the sisters knew about this, they would never let you make such an embarrassing phone call... "
Yi Haoyan couldn't help but laugh and said, "Ah! There is a limit to being childish! Do you need affirmation so much? Is a Filipino girl worth mentioning? Are you guys a girl group from SM !!!"
He became more and more excited as he spoke.
"Ah! Zheng Xiujing! If I tell your sister what happened today, do you believe she will beat you to death?"
"Ah! Choi Sulli!! Is this the ambition of SM's little princess??!! Is this the ambition of Girls' Generation's sister group?"
"Ah! That's enough!"
The two youngest members shouted, "We are an experimental group. Our style is not mainstream. Having one member is already pretty good! You are asking too much!!"
"No, no, no! It's not that I have high requirements, it's that you have too low requirements!"
Yi Haoyan interrupted them: "Fortunately, the agent doesn't know about this, otherwise he would definitely teach you a lesson!"
"Do you know why SM dared to form a group of trainees with excellent qualities like you as an experiment?"
"Because SM is confident in its music concept! Because Girls' Generation and SJ are popular enough! And more importantly, because SM has confidence in you guys!!"
"The so-called experimental team is not just for fun without caring about the results! You underestimate yourselves and underestimate SM!"
"The purpose of the experimental group is not to follow the trend! It is to create and lead the future of K-pop! The style you are trying now will become the mainstream in the future! Your current style of music will not be outdated in 3, 5 years or even longer! The younger generations who don't have enough strength will not dare to cover your stage!"
"This is the positioning and requirement for the experimental group! To some extent, the experimental group emphasizes artistry over commercialism. You need to understand your own positioning! How can you be so complacent about an overseas champion who is not even ranked? It's ridiculous!"
Yi Haoyan scolded him! The other end of the phone fell silent.
The two youngest members were probably scared, but it doesn't matter, those judgments are almost right. SM has a very high position for itself, and the experimental group is definitely a very advanced but important decision. This kind of decision involving the company's music direction is not made casually.
Lee Soo Man and Kim Young Min have a clear plan for the company's future, otherwise they would not have the courage to go against chaebols like Mnet. SM will continue to expand and develop with the development of the Korean Wave, and its momentum to continue to explore has not stopped.
The experimental group is the concrete manifestation of this spirit.
Yi Haoyan is looking forward to what kind of future SM will create.
