Chapter 226 confrontation

(Thanks to the 'wu' children' shoes for the 1000 rewards)

mai.k is the nickname of Mai Kuraki. Generally, people who are closer can call her the name, but Mai Kuraki asked Choi Junxi, who was the first time to meet, to call her that. Obviously, she has a good impression of Choi Junxi.

"Uh, okay..." Choi Junxiu smiled at Mai Kuraki's kindness and shouted, "mai.k~"

"(*^__^*)..." Mai Kuraki narrowed her big eyes happily

But before she could finish her happiness, Choi Junxi's eyes rolled, and he curled the smile at the corner of his mouth, and asked with a curious expression, "mai.k, I have a question to ask you..."

"Yes~" Although Mai Kuraki was puzzled, she nodded kindly.

"Mr. Nagato and I look that ugly?" Choi Junxiu looked at her seriously

"Eh?" Mai Kuraki didn't react for a moment.

"Because mai.k, you seem to see a ghost when you see us..." Choi Junxi sighed with a "sad" look on his face.

"I'm glad..." Kuraki Mai realized that he was deliberately teasing her with the "noise" she just now, so Kuraki Mai's face turned red with shame

"Haha...^_^"*5, although Choi Junxi speaks English, it is not difficult for everyone to understand his meaning, so everyone is happy

Although he was determined to further strengthen his relationship, it was his first meeting after all. After all, Choi Junxiu was slightly active in the atmosphere, he restrained his funny thoughts and praised him sincerely, "I'm sorry, I'm joking, mai.k, in fact, your singing is very beautiful and it sounds very comfortable... And the real and false voice is very powerful... No wonder you are an Asian star, and I am just a Korean singer..." At the end of his words, he couldn't help but make a joke

"Haha...^_^"*5, everyone was amused by his 'self-deprecating' humor again

Looking at Choi Junxi's funny look of deliberately shrugging and curling lips, everyone had a good impression of him, especially Mai Kuraki. Although her face was a little red by Choi Junxi's joke, she looked at Choi Junxi with even more interest.

Nagato wants to sign a contract with Choi Junxi, and she naturally knows that something urgent is that although Nagato and others are the bosses of the company, northernmusic is just a "small" firm dedicated to Mai Kuraki. Without her, northernmusic will no longer have the need to exist. Therefore, if you want to sign in to a "newcomer" to develop the company's business, you will naturally not hide it from her. On the contrary, you have to tell her in advance to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings.

When he heard that he wanted to sign one of the hottest Korean singers in South Korea, Mai Kuraki, was really curious. After all, Choi Junxik's "scenery" in 2007, even the American music industry noticed his reputation on youtube. He specially invited him to participate in the annual Eagle Rock Music Festival. This is a popular festival that many pop singers hate. Therefore, Mai Kuraki, as a pop star, has naturally heard of Choi Junxi.

Moreover, Choi Junxi released two singles and albums with sales of over 600,000 yuan in succession, which made at least 95% of singers envious and jealous and hated Mai Kuraki surprised. After all, now is no longer the era when she sold millions of dollars. Even she hasn't sold more than 400,000 yuan in a long time, but Choi Junxi just sold two in a monstrous way! How can this not be admired?

Therefore, Mai Kuraki is quite impressed by this Korean singer who was able to make a comeback when the recording industry was in a major decline. This may be the so-called hero recognition and heroism?

Mai Kuraki, who already had a certain affection for him, only when he saw Choi Junxiu, he realized that he was unique, open-minded but aggressive, sunny and decent, always had a warm smile on his lips, coupled with his strange eyes that looked like a fox, making Mai Kuraki uncontrollably have a slight look.

Just when people from northernmusic were very new to Choi Junxi, Nagato Daiyuki, who had just seen Choi Junxi's calm side, looked at him in surprise. He is really an artist...

…,…

After Nagato's explanation, Mai Kuraki cooperated to stop recording the album and gave up the recording studio

Wen Sonan handed over the demo prepared in advance to the recording engineer of northernmusic, and then said something to him. The recording engineer nodded and put the CD into the DVD beside him to watch him finish it. Wen Sonan gave a thumbs up like Choi Junxi in the recording studio, and Choi Junxi also cooperated to bring the earphones.

Compared with the luxury of the outside, the recording studio in the inside pays more attention to simplicity and comfort. The soft tones make Choi Junxi more relaxed. He slowed down his breathing, tried to clear his mind as much as possible, and no longer thought about other irrelevant things.

After a while, he made an OK gesture to the recording engineer. Nagato, Mai and others who had been waiting were also excited and attracted 100% attention, preparing to see the strength of this Korean lyric king.

The recording engineer turned on the music, and a prelude was passed through the headset to Choi Junxi's ears. Choi Junxi counted the beats in his heart, and then sang in a timely manner.

"I always ask you but never say thank you

It's not until you grow up that it's not easy

Every time I leave, I always pretend to be relaxed..."

“Time is slower, don’t let you get older again

I'm willing to exchange for everything I have for you to stay forever

What can I do for you, my grandfather, who is strong all my life

Accept the insignificant concern..."

For the first time, Choi Junxi's ethereal and pure bel canto singing that is different from the mainstream Korean ballad world for the first time in Japan, a country with ethereal ballad music as its mainstream music.

Unlike the mainstream Korean music, Japan is a country with historical and cultural influences, its musical form includes popularmusic (pop music, i.e. pop music), r&b, rock, dance music, hip-hop and soul music, among which pop and r&b are the most popular, and then various rock music, as well as band music, and rap music, and finally dance music.

The most special modern ballad music in pop is the most famous, and this kind of ethereal music is the most famous for female singers. Almost every singer who can be called a famous singer in jpop will have one or two songs of this style. Whether it is Namie Amuro, Ayumi Hamasaki, Utada Hikari, Mai Kuraki later, Rimi Otsuka Ai, Kana Nishino, etc., and as long as such songs come out, fans and music critics will immediately give praise to the singer's strength. It seems that Japanese people especially love this kind of music form.

Therefore, when Choi Junxiu sang this song "Grandfather" in his series in his pure and ethereal singing, Mai Kuraki was very surprised and widened her eyes. Although Mai Kuraki was also like Choi Junxiu just now, she (they) could focus on his (her) singing and voice

Choi Junxi's singing has always been known for its pure and pleasant voice, thanks to his natural voice. Unlike the muddy voices of most people, his voice is naturally very round and without much noise. Therefore, when he sings, he will look very ethereal, just like a quiet and silent spring flowing in a quiet valley, very beautiful.

Although the mainstream music in South Korea and Japan is different, some basic aesthetics are still the same. Choi Junxiu's voice is different from most Korean singers. He is very popular in South Korea like Kim Jong Kook and has won the title of the strongest Belle, because it is naturally more attractive to everyone.

Therefore, since Choi Junxiu is so popular in Korea, which is not mainstream with ethereality, wouldn’t it be even more like a fish in Japan, which is particularly fond of this kind of music?

Thinking of this, Mai Kuraki seemed to understand a little why Nagato Daiyuki wanted to sign Choi Junxi so much, because this guy was definitely a potential gold mine, and Nagato pinched his chin thoughtfully with a look of thought. Obviously he had known it a long time ago, so Mai Kuraki couldn't help but curl his lips, the cunning Nagato old man, ^_^

"Thank you for having you along the way..."

Just as Mai Kuraki was trying hard to eliminate the eldest son in her heart, Choi Junxi was over

As the tremolo of the last chess fell, Nagato Yuki clapped his hands with a smile on his face, and regardless of whether Choi Junxiu heard it or not, he opened his mouth and praised, "Singing really well, Mr. Choi Junxiu~"

Choi Junxi's a cappella this time has a smooth rhythm and full of emotions, so it is not too much to say "good" to Nagato.

Nagato's applause woke Kuraki Mai from the dark heart. She quickly patted her fleshy little hands and smiled gently at Choi Junxi.

Choi Junxiu in the inner room seemed to hear it, but he didn't say anything, just shrugged with a smile

Since he could hear it, that is, the recording engineer opened the microphone in time. Therefore, seeing the confidence revealed in Choi Junxi's silence, Nagato smiled slightly and said with a meaningful sentence, "We have seen Mr. Choi Junxi's basic skills, which is very exciting... But I wonder if Mr. Choi can have a Japanese song?"

Choi Junxi was stunned and looked at him with a little puzzled look, while Nagato looked at Choi Junxi with a smile, looking calm.

Choi Junxi's eyes shrank, as if he understood something. He looked at Nagato deeply, but he did not show any dissatisfaction, but just smiled faintly

However, Wei Sonam and Yoon Seo-yue's faces changed slightly, because northernmusic did not have this requirement in advance, and Choi Junxiu did not know Japanese, so he did not prepare Japanese songs. Instead, he wrote a Korean song "Grandfather" and an English song "Baby". However, Nagato asked for a Japanese song at this time, which was completely beyond Choi Junxi's expectations. And he looked a little arrogant.

However, then again, since you are going to come to Japan to develop, it seems that it is not too much to test the level of Japanese songs, because you will release Japanese albums in the future. Therefore, Nagato's "little trouble" is not too much, and it is even quite reasonable. It is precisely because of this that Choi Junxiu smiled without saying a word.

The reason why Nagato made such a request was to see where Choi Junxi's bottom line was. Although he valued the possible value of Choi Junxi and even tolerated that he had to control his own development route, he definitely did not want to find a thorn to make himself uncomfortable. What should be restricted or what to talk about?

Choi Junxi also understood this, but no matter how clear he understood, he couldn't just let someone step on him with a shameless face as soon as he said it. Isn't that too "simple"? Besides, the hot haircut is something that no one can cherish, so Choi Junxi could only silently. Nagato's position also determined that he could not always compromise with Choi Junxi, so the atmosphere in the recording studio dropped sharply.

At this time, Mai Kuraki finally realized the obscure and depressing atmosphere between Nagato Daiyuki and Choi Junxi, and quickly smiled softly and said in English, "Mr. Choi Junxi, is this song composed by Mr. Choi Junxi?"

"Uh..." Choi Junxi was stunned and didn't react a little, and Nagato Daiyuki looked at her in surprise, while Kuraki Mai looked at Choi Junxi with a calm look on her face, with a very sincere look on her face

Looking at Mai Kuraki's sincere eyes, Nagato Yuki seemed to understand something, so he smiled slightly and withdrew his gaze to Choi Junxi. Choi Junxi also reacted. He looked at her with a complicated expression and nodded, "Well, yes..."

"Really? It sounds very nice..." Kuraki Mai clapped her hands as if nothing had happened, and said happily, "There is a kind of sadness that makes people cry, but there is also a hint of relief and touching. It is really worthy of being Mr. Choi Junxi..."

Looking at Mai Kuraki's always soft smile, Choi Junxi touched his nose embarrassedly, "It's okay, it's far worse than mai.k..."

It’s not Choi Junxi, but Mai Kuraki can’t compose music, but she writes very well. Basically, every song on the album is written by herself. Moreover, her lyrics and music are not only beautiful, but also very consistent with the composition. It is like a gorgeous poem, with very rhythmic rhythm.

To be honest, this skill is not inferior to Choi Junxi. It should be said that it is even slightly stronger than Choi Junxi. Besides, Mai Kuraki's name as a talented woman has also been recognized by the outside world. Therefore, it is not wrong to say that Choi Junxi admits that she is not as good as her.

Moreover, his politeness not only made Mai Kuraki better feel for him, but even the chief could not help but smile. With Mai Kuraki's just right ice breaking, he saw Choi Junxi's bottom line, and he would not offend him.

"Oh, no~" No matter who is the winner of the "secret battle" between Choi Junxi and Nagato Daiyuki, Kuraki Mai just didn't want to see them hurt by being so kind, so she broke the ice. Now she was embarrassed by Choi Junxi's politeness. She shook her little hands and said softly, "Mr. Choi Junxi is really amazing. She can write so many good songs..."

"What's so good about me? My teacher is so good. He is known to be able to make a song of god..." Since the atmosphere was broken, Choi Junxiu also resumed his unlimited behavior, and dug a pit for Huang Can, who was far away in South Korea with an ambiguous look on his face. "Although he is a sword (small) god~"

"Puff~"

"Haha...^_^"*5
