Chapter 113 THE FIRST TAKE
For several days in a row, Jin Shiming worked almost all day at SM company.

As a result, he became familiar with some of SM company’s employees and artists.

For example, Victoria Song. The two of them have had dinner together several times in private, and their relationship has become much closer. If you don’t know, you might think they have been friends for many years.

After getting to know Kim Se Myung’s temperament, Victoria Song became less reserved and would even bring other members of f(x) along when they went out to eat.

Jin Shiming finally got to know the other three members of f(x).

Luna has a cheerful and enthusiastic personality. She is a girl who loves to laugh and her smile makes people feel warm. She is a bit similar to Kim Sejeong.

What surprised Jin Shiming was that Luna, who seemed very low-key in the f(x) team, actually possessed superb singing skills that could make her a top-notch lead singer in any girl group!
Luna’s vocal function is not very good, as she was born with a thin voice. Therefore, she spent a lot of time honing her skills, trying her best to use technology to make up for her disadvantages in vocal function.

In terms of skills alone, Jin Shiming believes that Luna may be better than Kim Taeyeon and is the best member of SM’s current girl group.

It’s a pity that f(x) was born at the wrong time, and Luna’s personal resources were very limited, so she had basically no opportunities to perform.

At first glance, Amber looks a bit cool and androgynous, but in fact, she is very thoughtful and has a high emotional intelligence.

It’s quite comfortable to make friends with such people.

However, like Luna, Amber is in an awkward situation. As the least popular member of the team, her strength is somewhat underestimated.

As for f(x)’s youngest member, Krystal, who is touted by fans as the first ACE concept of Peninsula, Kim Semyung’s first impression of her is that she is introverted.

She was a little too shy and afraid of giving birth, and she had an icy face.

Whenever he feels a little uneasy, or inexplicably absent-minded, his expression will immediately become a little sullen, giving people the feeling that he is difficult to approach.

Well, the same is true to some extent for SinB Huang Enfei from Jin Shiming’s own company.

The difference is that Krystal is more thoughtful, has a more twisted personality, and is more girlish in her sensibility.

SinB is more carefree and lets himself go from time to time, like a very naughty boy.

From this perspective, translating her Chinese stage name into “Xin Fei” is very consistent with her personality.

……

“I was originally planning to introduce some domestic members of the EXO team to you, Shiming, but unfortunately it’s not a coincidence!” Victoria Song said with a little regret.

The treatment of Chinese people on the peninsula can only be said to have improved compared with the past, but it can definitely not be called fair and equal.

Therefore, most people stick together for warmth and help and care for each other.

Song Qian and her friends have a chat group that is full of Chinese members of SM company, and they have a pretty good relationship with each other privately.

“I’ve seen a lot of news about EXO recently. Team M has caused quite a stir in mainland China,” said Jin Shiming.

EXO was Lee Soo-man’s ambitious work, and Team M had been targeting the mainland market from the beginning of planning.

In the mainland, which has never experienced the baptism of the modern idol industry, the emergence of EXO can be described as a dimensionality reduction attack, and there is no rival for it in the same track.

Coupled with SM company’s heavy publicity, EXO has become quite popular in mainland China and has already become a top group.

“The company values ​​EXO very much and the resources invested in it are probably more than those in Girls’ Generation.” There was a hint of melancholy in Song Qian’s words.

Function’s life was already not easy, and now the company has an extra biological son to raise, so the resources left for them, the adopted daughters, will inevitably be discounted.

It’s only been two and a half years since the debut of the band, and they’ve been doing pretty well, but they feel like they’re already half buried in the ground. It’s really hard to believe! “You guys are coming back soon, right? How’s the album this time? Are you confident?” Jin Shiming asked with concern.

“Yes, Oppa, we have already scheduled our comeback in early June! For this album we…” Sulli on the side answered first.

Fortunately, Victoria Song pulled the corner of her clothes in time, otherwise she might have spilled out all the information that needed to be kept secret.

This is Shirley’s personality. Once she trusts someone, she will open her heart to them without reservation.

Sometimes, from the perspective of others, she seems a little willful and doesn’t think before she speaks or acts.

In the final analysis, it’s because we lack love!

“Teacher Kenzie participated in the production of this album. We all think it’s very good, but this year’s summer battle is too intense!” Luna took over the conversation and said with a worried look on her face.

It has been publicly announced that the KPOP groups that will participate in this year’s summer battle include but are not limited to TaeTiSeo, SISTAR, A Pink, Wonder Girls, 2NE1, KARA, Super Junior, INFINITE, B1A4…

Oh, and there’s also BoA and Jin Shiming playing duo row together.

With such a tragic degree, it is no exaggeration to say that it is the King of Gu Raising!

It is no wonder that Luna has no confidence. Even Jin Shiming dare not say that the second album of the four-season album “Summer” will definitely be able to continue the momentum of “Spring”.

After all, the peninsula is full of deaf and blind people!
The toilet products of some people have been a problem for a long time, and there are countless wonderful songs that have been buried over the years.

“After I finish the collaboration song with BoA Nuna, I plan to open a YouTube channel. I would like to invite you to record a program and advertise my new channel?” Jin Shiming suddenly said.

Everyone was a little confused when they heard this.

What is a YouTube channel?
What program is to be recorded?
“YouTube is expected to launch a paid channel subscription program next year, allowing some video creators to charge monthly fees to viewers of specific content. It just so happened that the trial operation phase was recently launched, and a group of YouTubers from all over the world were invited to open channels,” Jin Shiming explained.

As a big YouTuber with millions of followers, Jin Shiming was naturally among the invited guests.

Jin Shiming doesn’t care whether he makes money or not, he doesn’t need these little things.

As for opening a channel, Jin Shiming felt that it had great potential and was worth planning ahead of time.

If the channel can be operated and attract a large number of overseas viewers, it will still be profitable even if it is operated for free.

The penguins in China illustrate this point very well: free things are often the most expensive!

“In other words, YouTubers put the produced programs on their personal channels. After users try them out and like them, they can sign up for a monthly subscription and pay to watch subsequent content?” Amber quickly understood.

“It sounds just like watching TV series on a video website with a membership!” Victoria Song said in sudden realization.

Netflix overseas and iQiyi in mainland China both adopt the VIP monthly subscription system, and the trend of paying to watch TV series has become increasingly popular in the past two years.

“Oppa, what type of show is this?” Krystal, who is usually quiet, couldn’t help but ask curiously.

“A program that allows the audience to experience music that cannot be reproduced! A program that is more like a live performance rather than an ordinary recording!” Jin Shiming replied.

He has already thought of the name of the show, “THE FIRST TAKE”.

The guests sang live on a simple stage set up with a pure white background and a standing microphone, showing their most authentic live performance effects through the only filming opportunity.
