Since entering SM, Li Wuyu has been receiving the correct guidance given to him by professionals, walking forward step by step according to their teachings.

He learned dance, vocal music, body shape, self-management...

What the teachers say, he acts on what they say.

But it was the first time that a series of strange but beautiful notes would fly through his mind.

But the situation at that time really didn't allow him to record it with a pen. When he sat back in the nanny's car and wanted to recall it again, it became blurry.

"Teacher, you said that I was the inspiration for your creation of "Feather", but how can you create a song?" Li Wuyu asked Yu Yongzheng his question, "When I was recording a variety show a few days ago, a sudden flash A little rhythm, but then I forget and can only write three or two notes."

he looks regretful

If it could be recorded directly at that time, it can be directly shown to Yu Yongzheng now, instead of being confused like now:

"Creation, is it difficult?"

Yu Yong was looking at the confusion on his student's face, and said with a chuckle, "Creation is not difficult to say the least. People like us who have been dealing with music can play a few notes at will. People, things, and objects are all It can become the object of our creation, inspiration is hard to come by, and the most critical melodies can be expanded into a complete piece of music."

"Inspiration actually comes in many forms. Sometimes it is a picture, and I write down the melody based on the picture and then fill in the lyrics. Sometimes it is a piece of text, and I write the score based on the text. But the end result is the same. Our The purpose is to create a piece of music.”

Li Wuyu listened to Yu Yongzheng's words, and continued to ask: "For example?"

"For example, we use the most basic three notes now," Yu Yongzheng sat in front of the electronic piano and played the three notes of 'doremi', "use these three notes to expand into a rhythm."

Li Wuyu moved the chair by himself and sat beside Yu Yongzheng. He only had three sounds in his mind.

Create a melody with these three tones?

how to do?

Li Wuyu frowned and watched as Yu Yongzheng put his hands on the keys, and his right hand was beating on these three keys. Soon, a series of melodies based on these three notes flowed out.

This melody is light and floating, like the big soft clouds floating in the sky on a sunny day.

Li Wuyu was very surprised when he heard the melody.

In his mind, the three notes that are too monotonous can be combined into such a melody.

"Based on this, now add chords." Yu Yongzheng said, put his left hand on the keys, and pressed the C chord with several fingers at the same time.

After hearing this, Li Wuyu hurriedly interrupted him and said, "Teacher, you said that you can only use three doremi sounds, and you have surpassed it now."

Yu Yong was looking at Li Wuyu's serious expression, and said with a smile: "Yes, but the tones and chords produced by the composition are used as auxiliary to make the song more rich. This is why we will ask people to arrange the music after the composition is completed. , the arrangement is also to enrich the song, we can add electronic sounds, cello, drum kit and so on."

After hearing this, Li Wuyu suddenly realized that he had fallen into a closed brain circuit just now. When he heard Yu Yongzheng say to use three tones, he subconsciously thought that he could only use three tones: "So teacher, based on this, add other .”

"That's right, but you can't overwhelm the guests," Yu Yongzheng put his hands down, "The melody is the life of the song, and the side dishes are always just side dishes."

"En." Li Wuyu nodded seriously

"The three notes of doremi are in front of us, how to make these three notes form a new life through different combinations and arrangements, this is what we want to do..."

When Li Wuyu came out of Yu Yongzheng's workshop, he felt as if he was walking in a thick fog, aimlessly, but suddenly saw a door vaguely.

But he just saw it. If he wanted to open the door and walk in, he still had a lot to learn.

"Creation?" Cao Minhyuk heard Li Wuyu's sudden topic, recalling other artists in the company, and said a little strangely, "Our company doesn't need artists to create."

"why?"

While driving the car, Cho Min Hyuk said, "Actually, there are some artists who can create in the company. After all, whoever studies music can't write something, but the company believes in songs produced by professional teams. It is important to release a song." What needs to spend a lot of money, the company is always for profit. Not everyone is a GD, almost one person can arrange an entire album, and every time an album is released, it can be loved by fans."

Li Wuyu, who was sitting in the back, listened to Cho Min Hyuk's words, and somewhat understood that the angles of artists and executives will never be the same, and they will look at things from different angles.

Investing in professionally produced songs can definitely have a 70% guarantee. What about investing in songs created by artists themselves?How much guarantee can there be?

If it is said that GD brought the YG building up, then it is also because YG was not a complete big company like SM, and the philosophy of the president is not the same, so GD can show its strength.

What about SM?It has long been a very complete entertainment company. They don't need the creation of artists. They have a large professional team and a large number of trainees. As long as they pick a few trainees, they can become popular!

"But you still have to work hard. Just like Taemin, when he debuted, he was just a dancer. With his own efforts, he became an ace, and solo albums followed one after another. Why didn't the company release solos for other artists? Among them There are considerations." After Cao Minhyuk said this, he smiled, "Wuyu, you are the same, now more and more people like you, this is a good sign."

Li Wuyu responded in a low voice: "But teacher Yu Yongzheng encouraged me to create in the morning."

"Good thing."

Listening to these three words of Cho Min Hyuk, combined with his previous words, Li Wuyu understood that Cho Min Hyuk didn't take the matter of "he wants to create" to heart at all.

Li Wuyu didn't speak anymore, he got out of the car and followed Cho Min Hyuk to the album signing event.

The venue SM chose was still a big shopping mall. When Li Wuyu appeared on stage, the screams of fans waiting on the first floor spread throughout the shopping mall.

He sat on the top, looked at the long line below, and felt that his footsteps seemed to be walking too fast.

Obviously, for the last mini-album, there were only [-] or [-] girls who came to support his fans, but now there are hundreds of people holding his photos and cartoon avatars.

Cao Minhyuk directly took several boxes of black marker pens and put them on the table, and handed Li Wuyu a microphone.

"Hi everyone, I'm Li Wuyu from EXO,"

As soon as these words came out, the crowd started to cheer, which made Li Wuyu a little funny, he pressed his empty hand with the palm facing down, and waited for the voice to subside before continuing, "Really I'm very happy that everyone is here, so let's stop talking nonsense and just start."

Amidst the laughter, Li Wuyu sat down, picked up a pen, and started this signing.

The first one to come on stage was a lovely girl. She shyly handed the album in her hand to Li Wuyu, and when she saw him bowing her head to sign, she said, "Sweetie, I just realized that you are more beautiful than in the MV." Be handsome."

After Li Wuyu signed, he handed the album back to the girl, and said with a smile, "Thank you."

The second person who came up was a young woman. Without saying a word, she directly handed over a ticket in her hand to Li Wuyu.

The ticket was folded very well, Li Wuyu opened it after receiving it, only to find that it was an album ticket, and the number on it showed [-] copies!

Seeing the numbers clearly, Li Wuyu widened his eyes undisguisedly, he raised his head and asked, "You bought all of them?"

"That's right!" As soon as the woman spoke, Li Wuyu realized that she was speaking in Chinese, so he immediately switched to Chinese and asked, "You bought [-] copies yourself, it's too wasteful."

The woman was also surprised that he could speak Chinese, but she immediately calmed down and explained that she was just helping other fans from country C to place orders together.

"Ah, so that's the case." Li Wuyu cracked a smile when he understood, "Thank you for your support!"

"The previous advertising space was also contracted by us." The woman once again told a news that shocked Li Wuyu, "Thank you very much for your support until now, even if you leave the team, we will still be with you."

Li Wuyu was completely shocked by these words, he looked up at the female fan in disbelief, why did they let her say such things to him?

Is it because you learned about those things back then?

or something else?

Retreat

I heard it from his fans

Li Wuyu looked at her expression that didn't seem to be joking at all, he pursed his lips, and for a moment didn't know what to answer.

And Cho Min Hyuk, who was standing by the side, couldn't understand what the two were talking about. There was no translation arranged for the signing event this time, so he could only judge from the sudden change of Li Wuyu's expression. It's not a good topic.Just when Cao Minhyuk was about to step forward, he heard the woman continue to speak.

"We hope that you can walk more freely without any burden. Whether you choose to stay in EXO or leave the team, we will support you."

Li Wuyu looked at the female fan, and finally whispered:

"Thank you!"

He wants to quit the team!

This idea has always existed, it didn't disappear, but was covered by him with soil

He never knew that the first person to open up the thought that was about to sink in his heart was not himself, but his fans!

Does he have the self-consciousness as an EXO member?

No!Not at all!

He never felt that he was a member of EXO, except that he introduced himself with the prefix 'EXO' every time he appeared in public.

And adding this prefix is ​​just to resist the sloppy mouths of those allies.

So can he say the word that he couldn't say at the beginning?

But when Li Wuyu's mind was blowing away the dust on this idea again, a figure rushed in

Every time that person would bend his eyebrows and call out affectionately: "Little fish!"

Can he speak it?

That person is constantly pulling him, pulling him, making him keep up with the footsteps of the team!

Did he say it to him?

==

At the end of the signing session, Cho Min Hyuk found that Li Wuyu was in a very low mood, not at all the happiness he expected. Obviously this signing will be very successful.

"Wuyu, what's wrong with you? Are you uncomfortable?"

"No," facing Cho Min Hyuk's concern, Li Wuyu just hid his thoughts, he said, "I'm just thinking about the interview later."

"Ah, just take it easy." Cho Min Hyuk comforted him with a smile.

After the two got out of the car, they walked into the interview location this time.

This was the third time he came here, and unlike the previous two times, after entering this time, he hardly saw any men of his age waiting for him.After walking in, a staff member immediately stepped forward and said with a smile, "Li Wuyu Xi is here, I'll take you to change clothes."

Follow the staff into the lounge, there is only one set of clothing on the hanger inside - the school uniform of a Korean university, a white shirt with dark school pants.

Li Wuyu looked around the room quickly, but did not see the shadow of the second set of clothes. After waiting for the staff to leave, Cho Min Hyuk took off the clothes on the hanger: "This time the character seems to be really a student. Director Park Chan-wook spent a lot of trouble just to find a student?"

Sure enough, he is a film director. In order to find the best candidate in his heart, he doesn't have to worry about time and money at all.

"Maybe it's to confuse the public." Li Wuyu took the clothes from Cho Min Hyuk, went into the fitting room to change, and when he came out, Cho Min Hyuk, who was waiting outside, had the illusion that he wanted to take Li Wuyu to high school again.

He approached, with an old father's smile on his face, and straightened Li Wuyu's collar: "Wuyu, this seems to be the third time I've seen you wearing a school uniform. If this character is really a student, then You can definitely make it to the final interview."

Cho Min Hyuk looked at Li Wuyu who was standing in front of him. No matter from any angle, Li Wuyu's face was very good. They have already entered the third round of interviews. Back then, Cho Min Hyuk was just leading a round of interviews. Mentality, but now his confidence is getting stronger and stronger.

"Do your best." Li Wuyu didn't have the same big ideas as Cho Minhyuk, what filled his whole head now was to learn more about songwriting.

No one came to put on makeup for Li Wuyu, so Cho Minhyuk asked the staff specifically, and the answer he got was the director's request.So Cho Min Hyuk returned to Li Wuyu's side, staring at Li Wuyu's face even more, wishing to see every little blemish on his face disappear.

In the end, it was Li Wuyu himself who couldn't stand Cao Minhe's eyes, and said helplessly, "Brother, be normal."

As soon as the voice fell, there was a knock on the door of the lounge, and a staff member came in and took Li Wuyu away to the interview room.

In the same interview room, Li Wuyu walked in and stood in the same position as before, the difference is that this time only Park Chan-wook, Wu Zaimin and two others were sitting there.

The most conspicuous are the two cameras placed there!

lights on, working

"Li Wuyu, it really is the school girl who came in, the school girl." Wu Zaimin was joking, and was the first to speak. This was not the first time he had seen Li Wuyu, so the words became familiar.

"Li Wuyu, go over there and get a script to perform." Park Chanwook didn't answer Wu Jaemin's words, but pointed to a small table in the corner.

Li Wuyu did so, and when he looked at the stack of manuscripts, he finally took the top one.

Walking back to the original place, I opened the manuscript according to Park Chan-wook's words. It was still very simple text, but compared with the previous one which only had a dialogue, this time there was still a scene setting.

The general content is to describe some psychological changes of 'he' when he sees the girl he has a crush on walk by and wait around.

Cho Min Hyuk is right, 'he' is indeed a student!

This should be an excerpt from the script

Li Wuyu looked at the text, and he had a rough outline of the role currently being interviewed.

"How many minutes do you need?" Park Chan-wook looked at Li Wuyu, who was bowing his head, and asked.

When Li Wuyu, who was wearing a school uniform, walked in, Park Chan-wook couldn't help feeling that Li Wuyu seemed to present the character in his mind. Even in these auditions, Li Wuyu's appearance was definitely still Top notch, but what made him hesitate was Li Wuyu's acting skills.

When I first talked about this role with Wu Zaimin, it was indeed a vase, but with the in-depth creation of the script, this role changed a lot in the later stage, and he couldn't find someone with poor acting skills to come in.

"Is 5 minutes enough?" Li Wuyu raised his head, looked at Park Chanwook, and said the number.

At this time, Park Chan-wook asked the staff to adjust the positions of the two cameras, and a monitor was placed in front of him. From here, the images from the two cameras can be seen, one is a close-up of Li Wuyu's face, and the other is a close-up of Li Wuyu's face. Full body image of Li Wuyu.

When 5 minutes were up, Li Wuyu took a deep breath after seeing Park Chan-wook gestured to start.

His eyes searched for a while, and finally settled on a camera

Li Wuyu's eyes are really beautiful, like the clear amber, even if he looks over without any expression at the moment, they can still attract attention, making Park Chan-wook, who is looking at the picture, can't help but sigh with emotion.

Looks really matter a lot.

Park Chan-wook quickly came back to his senses. He stared at the close-up of Li Wuyu in the screen, and saw that pair of beautiful eyes just blinked, and there was a gleam of joy in the pupils that had no emotion before.

The corners of his lips began to rise uncontrollably, but he seemed a little shy, and soon lowered his eyes, the eyelids covering the emotions in those eyes.

"The girl you liked is dead." Park Chan-yu, who was looking at the picture, said coldly

This sudden opening made Li Wuyu almost lose his emotions, but looking at Park Chanwook still sitting there from the corner of his eye, he immediately restrained his doubts and quickly switched emotions.

Staring at the camera again, Li Wuyu opened his eyes in a daze. He began to recall the way director Li Yingfu aroused his emotions that time. About half a minute later, his eyes were red.

"Ka, that's it." Park Chan-wook stopped first, looked at Li Wuyu who was bowing, picked up the pen on the table and wrote '5' in the column of acting skills, and wrote '10' in the column of appearance ', "Okay, Li Wuyu xi, today's interview is over, I have one thing to say, just now you showed a very good mood when you saw a girl you have a crush on, but I was about to appreciate it, but you lowered your eyes Now, what do you want me to look at? Look at your eyelids? This treatment is too demeritful."

These words seem to have poured a basin of cold water on Li Wuyu's head, making him completely awake

That's right, the setting of this scene was clearly for the purpose of capturing close-ups, but he actually used such a terrible way of drooping his eyes!What does this make the audience see?

Li Wuyu said, "Sorry."

"Don't say sorry to me, just tell yourself." Park Chan-wook waved his hand without showing any mercy, "Okay, go back and wait for the notification."

Hearing this, Li Wuyu bowed and thanked him for his hard work, but when he took a step towards the door, he turned around again, a little embarrassed and said: "Director, if you are eliminated, there will be a notification, right?"

As soon as these words came out, Wu Zaimin and others laughed out loud, and even Park Chan-wook looked at him in surprise. After a long time, about five or six seconds later, Park Chan-wook nodded: "Yes!"

After waiting for Li Wuyu to leave, Wu Zaimin leaned over and pointed at Park Chanwook's piece of paper: "This is, eliminated?"

"The emotion in the front is actually good, but behind him his eyes are red, and I can't read more content in his eyes." Park Chan-wook didn't give a confirmed answer, but just commented on Li Wuyu's performance just now.

"Isn't that why you yelled to stop first, and then gave the child a chance to perform?" Wu Zaimin complained unbearably, "I just feel sorry for this child, he looks really good."

"The acting skills are a bit poor." Park Chan-wook picked up the piece of information on Li Wuyu on the table, and his eyes turned back and forth between the two numbers he wrote, "It's not that I don't give him time, but that I will give him time later." For three minutes, he can only do that."

As a director, Park Chan-wook often knows exactly where an actor's "skill" is, let alone a novice like Li Wuyu who has just started on the road. It's almost touched.The third interview that brought Li Wuyu to the present is not because he can't bear his face!

"Then you haven't seen him play "Goblin" before." Oh Jae-min laughed, and he took out a USB flash drive from his trouser pocket and put it in front of Park Chan-wook, "I asked Li Ying-bok for the first scene of Li Wu-yu. You can go back and watch it before deciding, at least his acting skills are not so bad that it cannot be saved."

Li Wuyu, who came out from here, saw Cao Minhyuk who was looking forward to him, was silent for a while, and said: "Brother, it's over."

In fact, when Cao Minhyuk saw Li Wuyu silently missing his line of sight, he knew it clearly. After listening to the words, he cheered up and said with a smile: "Well, then go and change clothes."

The two of them tacitly did not bring up this topic again, but a week later, Cho Min Hyuk received a call from Wu Zai Min, saying, Li Wu Yu has been recruited!

After confirming again and again that it was true, Cho Min Hyuk told Li Wuyu the news, and got Li Wuyu's reaction of complete disbelief: "At that time, the director said that my performance was not good, how could I be admitted?"

Li Wuyu had already considered himself eliminated for this role, but now he is accepted again?

Are you kidding me?

"I'm not sure about this. After all, it's their internal choice. At least it's good news for us."

Just like what Cho Min Hyuk said, this is good news, Li Wuyu signed the drama team contract soon, and went to the agreed place to pick up the script for this time.

As for the content of the script, Park Chan-wook really kept it secret to the extreme. In the previous few interviews, Li Wuyu had no access to any content, and now he is not even allowed to send the electronic version, so he went to get the script on the spot.

When he got to the elevator, Li Wuyu saw a big tall man standing beside him.

all black

wearing a peaked cap

That person seems to have spotted Li Wuyu from the corner of his eye.

Lifting his head slightly, revealing his eyes covered by the brim of the hat

The man wears exaggerated round glasses, smiles and holds out his hand

The palm is broad and the bones are distinct

He chuckled softly:

"Hi, I'm Liu Yaren!"
