At 7:30 p.m., Chen Minhao arrived at the Wangwang BBQ restaurant opposite the Kiwi Building.
It is a good choice to put the paparazzi's "candid photo" location in this barbecue restaurant.
This barbecue restaurant named "Wangwang" has a good environment, is relatively clean, and has private rooms. Moreover, barbecue itself is relatively down-to-earth. After the "candid" photos are released, it can bring the distance between celebrities and fans closer.
Chen Minhao pushed open the door of the private room and found that Gao Dao, Tong Ruize, Xing Tian and Lin Xiuzi were already busy ordering dishes.
As soon as Chen Minhao entered the room, the four people invited him to sit down.
Takadao handed the menu to Chen Minhao and said, "We just ordered some. Can you see if there is anything else you want to add?"
Chen Minhao saw that they had already ordered a lot, so he added two baked buns.
Lin Xiuzi looked shocked and asked: "Baked buns? Is this your unique dark cuisine in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai?"
Takadao spread his hands and shook his head: "This pot is not sold in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai. This is the first time I have heard of such a dark way of eating it."
As soon as Takashima handed the menu to the waiter, Li Zhi came.
Li Zhi was wearing a black woolen sweater and blue denim pants. After entering the door, he bowed his hands and said, "After class, a few students asked a few questions, so I'm a little late. Sorry."
"I see that Teacher Li is very popular among students at school." After Chen Minhao poured him a glass of water, he smiled and said, "I just arrived too."
Several large plates of barbecue were served shortly after, and the six of them chatted about each other's current situation while eating.
Takashima became a variety show star and became a regular guest on a lifestyle program on the Kiwi Platform. This variety show will start filming in the United States next week.
Tong Ruize has finished filming "Wind, Rain, Snow" and is about to film an online drama called "The Dark One", in which he plays the second male lead.
Recently, Lin Xiuzi and Chen Minhao were on the crew of "Bing Dilian". He took advantage of the filming break and auditioned for some TV series, but he failed.
However, Lin Xiuzi is a born optimist, and there is no trace of sadness on his face.
Although Xing Tian's words were flashy, Chen Minhao could also hear what he meant. The agency he worked for was a small company and regarded him as a cash cow, often arranging some inexplicable variety shows or inexplicable advertisements for him.
Li Zhi is living a very comfortable life now. His parents bought him a car and a house when they saw that he had become a teacher. He works as a music teacher during the day, and at night when the weather is nice, he secretly goes to the streets to play and sing.
A few people talked about Ling Ziyang again. Everyone had never seen him again after "The Entertainer". Even Gao Dao, who was a gossip relay station, didn't know much about his current situation. He only said that Ling Ziyang went abroad to study.
Because there was a performance the day after tomorrow and we had to protect our throats, we all drank some juice instead of beer.
Chen Minhao, Gao Dao, Lin Xiuzi and Xing Tian had to rehearse in the evening and left first, leaving Tong Ruize and Li Zhi to start the second half of the nightlife.
Back in the practice room, Xiao Jing and others were sitting in the corner playing with their phones.
A few people said hello calmly and started rehearsing.
During the second tour, the 9 people performed only 3 songs together, one less than the last time, and two of them were the same songs they performed last time.
The only new program is the final chorus of 9 people on the tour, "Glory", the last composition of Chen Minhao.
The instructor this time was still Teacher Zhang who was invited from Kimchi Country last time, but Chen Minhao could feel that her enthusiasm this time was significantly lower than last time.
One month was enough for her to understand the difference in the gameplay between domestic boy groups and Korean boy groups, and it was obvious to her that the Kiwi Platform had no intention of doing a good job with this group and only wanted to make money.
The rehearsal was carried out in such a perfunctory environment.
Chen Minhao suddenly felt that the Kiwi platform was so perfunctory, so sorry for the fans.
But Chen Minhao then thought about it. He had activities during the day and could only find time to rehearse at night. He had no right to despise others.
Chen Minhao is very good at extricating himself from pain.
He thought about this nine-member boy band, which probably didn't have a single fan. After all, during the period of "Artist Producer", the nine members' fans often hated each other.
Tuanhun, no.
Tuanfen does not exist.
I guess no fans want to see the nine-member band perform together, so it doesn't matter that there are only 3 common performances on the tour.
During the rehearsal break.
Xiao Jing said a few words to Chen Minhao angrily, saying that he was a busy man who only cared about his own activities, etc. Chen Minhao smiled and ignored him.
Although it has only been more than 2 months since his official debut, Chen Minhao has already seen the larger world of the entertainment industry. He feels that bickering with Xiao Jing is just like novices pecking each other.
Moreover, Xiao Jing has been in decline recently, and some of the resources he has are not as good as those of Zeng Shiqing, who works for the same agent.
Once people get busy, time will pass very quickly.
Chen Minhao was active during the day and rehearsed at night, and it soon came to Saturday.
Although the Kiwi platform is perfunctory, fans are as enthusiastic as ever.
The stadium in Wuhan can hold about 8,000 people. Chen Minhao originally thought that the population of Wuhan was not as large as that of Shanghai, and there would be fewer fans in Kyoto, but the seats were packed with 8,000 fans.
The two-person programs performed by Chen Minhao today are "Little Love Song" and "Ordinary Road".
He saw that less than half of the 8,000 people in the stadium were his fans. They were holding white light signs and shouting their names hoarsely in the audience.
Chen Minhao felt a little guilty in his heart. The fans were so enthusiastic, and he knew that most of his fans should come specifically to watch his performance.
There are already many videos of him performing the two songs "Little Love Song" and "Ordinary Road", and fans worked hard to grab tickets and even took tickets from scalpers just to hear the live versions of these two songs.
And there are many fans who participated in the first tour in Kyoto and then came to Wuhan for the second tour. I wonder if they will be disappointed after seeing two similar performances.
Chen Minhao really wanted to sing a few more songs for his fans, but he couldn't.
Many things in the world become what you expect because you don't think about them or don't like them. Life will always force us to do many things we don't want to do and become what we don't want to be.
If he performs more shows, the fans themselves will be happy, but other artists and fans of other artists will probably explode. After all, most people are not worried about scarcity but inequality.
Chen Minhao thought to himself: It would be great if he could hold his own concert.
After the second tour, Chen Minhao silently set a small goal for himself to hold his own solo concert.
There is another update in the evening, it will be very late. Let's get up and watch tomorrow
