(Previous chapter, chapter name and content have been reviewed and revised, please read it if you understand)

"Brother Lay."

In a private room of a barbecue restaurant, Gong Cheng greeted Zhang Yixing who had just walked in.

The three people present, Jackson Wang, Gong Cheng, and Lay Zhang, are all Chinese.

Of course, there is no such thing as Aninghasai on this side of the peninsula...

After getting to know each other, Zhang Yixing directly stated the purpose of his visit: "Xiao Cheng, actually my studio received an invitation from your company two days ago, but we have been considering it."

"I have a lot of schedules in China this year, and I also have to travel back and forth between the two ends of the peninsula..."

Gong Cheng nodded, unhurried. Since Zhang Yixing was able to come, it meant there was still room for negotiation. He remembered that since returning to China last year, in addition to being a regular on a variety show, he had apparently also taken on several dramas.

The latest one seems to be a drama called "The Lost Tomb", which was just released in the country two days ago?
"After receiving the invitation from your company, I listened to your new album. It's amazing! You did the whole process of composing and writing the lyrics by yourself." Zhang Yixing praised with a smile.

"Hey, Brother Lay, don't look at how fierce the public opinion is on the Internet now. But all the clubs in Jiangnan are playing songs from Xiaocheng's new album." Wang Jiaer took over the conversation. As a member of a hip-hop group, he naturally knew the arrangement skills of those songs.

"According to the invitation, I heard that you will still be responsible for the production of the album for this limited group. So before I boarded the plane today, I contacted your company and provided the arrangement and lyrics for 'Fake Love'."

Zhang Yixing raised his glass and clinked it with Gong Cheng.

Gong Cheng knew the point was coming. This guy had been talking in circles for a long time, which meant he was definitely willing to cooperate, but he just didn't know how.

Zhang Yixing took a sip of his wine and smiled, "I'm going to be soloing in China soon. If I join your limited group, can you arrange music for my new album?"

Originally, he wanted to reject the invitation, after all, his work schedule this year was too much to handle.

But this month, he frequently flew to Seoul because he was discussing with SM about his first solo album in Korea. But after seeing the song "Fake Love", he decided to ask Gong Cheng to help him produce his first album.

He takes his album very seriously.

"Are you going to have a solo, Brother Lay?" Jackson Wang asked happily for him.

"Arrangement?" Gong Cheng finally understood what this guy was thinking. He poured a glass of wine and quickly made a decision.

"Welcome to Bombardment Meteor, Brother Lay."

"As for the arrangement, we can talk about it anytime."

"Bombardment Meteor? Such a high-profile move!" Zhang Yixing pondered the name of the new group and laughed out loud. "Okay, then we can keep in touch anytime. My solo hasn't been announced yet anyway, so we can push it back to the end of the year."

If the quality of the album can be improved, it doesn’t matter if the release time is postponed for a month or two.

For him, joining a limited group didn't hurt him, it would just keep him busy. He also knew that besides himself, there was also Park Jae-bum and a newly debuted singer. No matter how he looked at it, the lineup was pretty good.

At the very least, the popularity and exposure are maximized, and the most important thing is that he believes that the song "Fake Love" will definitely be a hit.

"By the way, Lay, what's your schedule like lately?" Gong Cheng asked, putting down his glass. Now that the group had assembled, the sooner they could get involved in the project, the better. According to him and Park Jin-young's plan, their limited group would be on stage by the end of October at the latest.

"It's been fine lately. A drama just aired and the ratings are pretty good. My main plan for the second half of the year is to work on my solo project, so I'll have to ask you for your help then." Zhang Yixing gave his answer after some thought.

"Well, I'm going to take a flight back to China tomorrow afternoon to take care of some things at the studio. I'll probably be back the day after tomorrow."

He thought about it and added.

"Okay, brother, how about this? When you come back, I'll call Jaebeom and Yingxiong, and we'll get together and officially start Bombardment Meteor!" Gong Cheng let out a long sigh and smiled happily. He turned to Wang Jiaer, who was quietly eating barbecue, and said, "Of course, there's also Jackson, the fifth member of our Bombardment Meteor."

"You kid." Wang Jiaer laughed happily upon hearing this, then said with regret, "Really? If I didn't have so many domestic schedules, I really want to be the fifth person and play with everyone."

"Okay, Brother Jackson, you are the captain of our cheerleading squad." Gong Cheng raised his glass and clinked it with him as a joke. He was really grateful to this brother.

This guy really put in a lot of effort in this limited edition combination and helped himself to accumulate a lot of games.

"Oppa, come on! Is that so, you little brat!" Wang Jiaer deliberately twisted his body twice, then complained in annoyance.

Zhang Yixing and Gong Cheng looked at each other and couldn't help laughing.

……

On July 15, JYP officially launched the Bombardment Meteor debut project for Gong Cheng.

The members of the group are Gong Cheng, Park Jae-Bum, Zhang Yixing, Lin Yingxiong,

"For the choreography of 'Blood, Sweat and Tears', I think it can be done like this... and like this... it will be more powerful, what do you think, brother?" In Gong Cheng's practice room, Zhang Yixing faced the mirror and communicated with Park Jae-bum next to him.

As both of them are the main dancers, they communicate more frequently about dance.

"You guys talk first, I need to revise this song 'Blood, Sweat and Tears'. The arrangement won't change, so I have to change the lyrics." Gong Cheng, who was lying on the ground, got up, took out the air conditioner remote control, and pressed down the temperature a few more times.

A pure white T-shirt, soaked with sweat.

After two days of crazy dance practice, he finally understood why Park Jin Young said there were some problems with the lyrics of this song.

Because, before this, he had never been a trainee for a single day, especially spending the entire day in the practice room like he does now.

However, in the past two days, in addition to being guided by his private dance teacher Momo-chan, and being checked and improved by Park Jae-bum and Zhang Yixing, he wanted to run to the composition room immediately and change the lyrics!
Change it to what you think now.

It's so fucking tiring! Even the main dancers or dance teachers, Momo from next door, say he's very talented.

But he really couldn't stand dancing for several hours a day!
The guy lying on the sofa, Lin Yingxiong, is even worse than me. He has no talent at all. He has to apply ice or something after practice every day...

Forget it, I’m too tired to move.

Just change it in the practice room...

Gong Cheng took out a piece of paper and a pen, crossed out the original lyrics on the music score, and sat cross-legged on the ground to revise the lyrics.

Park Jae-bum and Zhang Yixing, who were chatting nearby, glanced at Gong Cheng who was changing the lyrics and came over.

They came here just for Gong Cheng's ability as a producer.

According to Gong Cheng, all the songs included in the album have not been confirmed yet, but this song "Blood, Sweat and Tears" is the top priority at the moment. It is expected to be released in early October, along with the MV as the lead song.

"My blood, tears, sweat, and my last dance"

"Take it all away"

Gong Cheng breathed heavily, moved his body, and sat under the air conditioner!
I’m so tired that I want to die!

"My blood, tears, sweat, and my cold breath"

"Take it all away"

"..."

"Eagerly longing..."

"Kill me gently"

"Cover my eyes with your hands"

“I can’t refuse anyway.”

“There’s no escape anymore.”

"..."

"Take me gently..." After Gong Cheng modified the lyrics, he hummed a few lines along with them.

Right!
He turned his head and looked left and right. Why were these two brothers still there?
"Look at you, brother. What do you think? If you can, follow this choreography. I'll call a few dance teachers and we can discuss it together."

Gong Cheng let out a long sigh and stood up. The fatigue in his body had finally dissipated a little.

Park Jae-Bum and Zhang Yixing didn't rush to talk.

The two of them stared at the lyrics for a long time, and both felt that this version was indeed better than the previous one.

"I feel like this song is going to be a hit, if the choreography can be more exciting."

Park Jae-Bum read the lyrics carefully and said.

"I feel the same way," Zhang Yixing said excitedly. As an EXO member, he has his own set of criteria for evaluating boy band dance music. The original arrangement of this song was already very catchy, and the changes to the lyrics have taken it to a new level.

"Okay, then I'll ask Brother Dayu to print some new lyrics and find a few dance teachers."

Gong Cheng smiled and nodded, then said to Lin Yingxiong who was lying on the sofa, "Then when we're choreographing later, brother, you should take the time to rest and be lazy."

The four of them had been together for two or three days now. Aside from sleeping, they'd eaten almost every meal together. Of course, this was also due to everyone's deliberate intentions, and their bond had naturally deepened. "Walk slowly on the way, and don't come back too quickly, Xiaocheng. Let me rest up," Lin Yingxiong waved his hand with a look of despair.

Park Jae-Bum and Zhang Yixing smiled but said nothing. Lin Yingxiong, though his foundation was a bit weak, was no slacker. They were all part of this limited group, and since they were here, they were all working hard.

……

After Gong Cheng handed the revised lyrics paper to Kim Dae-woo, he heard the noisy sound from Twice's practice room next door.

The two legs that had just recovered their strength couldn't help but feel restless.

Ever since that day which was Twice's rest day, he hasn't seen the members of Twice much during the day. They said they were busy with some schedule.

By the time they returned to the company in the evening, Gong Cheng had already gone home tired from get off work.

"Children, long time no see!"

Gong Cheng pushed open the door of Twice's practice room, shouted, and opened his arms involuntarily.

When it comes to practice, it’s better to combine work and rest. Come here and relax.

He touched the tip of his nose awkwardly and withdrew his hand.

Haha, why do I feel like these people are a little unwelcoming to me, the tenth person of Twice?
This was not his attitude when I first brought the dining table to his house.

"What do you mean by long time no see, Oppa? When we were returning to the company just now, we secretly watched you practicing at the door of your practice room. But we didn't go in because we were afraid of disturbing you." Yu Jeongyeon walked up and said with a smile.

"But Oppa, the members of your limited group are really unexpected."

"EXO's Lay has joined..."

"That's what I mean. I wonder what expressions the fans outside would have if they knew." Park Ji-hyo exclaimed in agreement.

"Who cares about their expressions?" Gong Cheng curled his lips in disdain. His purpose in creating this limited edition group was to attract attention and stir up public opinion!

How can those Aili and fans quarrel without barking at the heat?
Besides, it’s hard to say what Aili’s attitude will be towards Brother Lay. Who knows... In short, there is still a difference between this brother and the three brothers in Pao San.

As he spoke, Gong Cheng sat down on the sofa, next to him was the little tiger that had been staring at him.

"You stink of sweat!" Minatozaki Sana came closer with a wrinkled nose.

"No! What's your quirk, Sana-chan? Smelling other people's sweat!" Gong Cheng pushed her shoulder. It was embarrassing enough to be sweating all over, and this little dog had to come up and smell it, just like a police dog...

"Besides, whose sweat doesn't stink? Is your sweat fragrant? I don't believe it. Smell it for me!"

He held Minatozaki Sana's shoulders righteously and leaned his head over.

"Ouch! What are you doing?! I'm not even sweating!"

Minatozaki Sana blushed and used her hands to block his head that was approaching.

It’s you who likes to smell other people’s sweat!
"Sana-chan, you smell so good~" Gong Cheng sniffed and whispered to her. She's definitely not sweating, it smells so good! I wonder if it's soft or not...

Minatozaki Sana looked around in shock, and after confirming that no members heard it, she kicked him with a red face: "You hooligan!"

"Sigh~"

After playing around with the Twice members for a while, Gong Cheng was about to leave when he suddenly sat down on the ground, hugging his leg. His leg cramped...

Zhou Ziyu, who was closest to him, quickly trotted over to him and squatted down: "What's wrong, Oppa?"

"It's okay, it's just a cramp, just take a break."

"Then let me give you a massage, Oppa." Zhou Ziyu pursed her lips, her face tense as she reached out and placed her hand on Gong Cheng's cramped leg. She was quite experienced in this sort of thing; throughout her time as a trainee and her debut, both her sisters and she had experienced cramps to varying degrees.

Everyone helps each other to relieve the pain through massage.

After seeing Gong Cheng's condition, the other members of Twice surrounded him with concern.

Only Lin Nayeon, who had just taken off her headphones in front of the mirror, was still curious about what had happened: "What's wrong?"

It has a kind of attitude of enjoying the good news and watching the show.

The recording playing in the headphones was still playing "Nuna, Nuna, Nuna"...

"Are you feeling better, Oppa?"

Zhou Ziyu massaged the muscles on Gong Cheng's calves, and her technique seemed quite professional. After massaging, she patted them.

"Almost." Gong Cheng watched the numbness gradually subside, then glanced at the little tiger leaning towards him on his other leg. "Chaeyoung, why are you pressing on my leg?"

He was talking about his left leg, but the cramp was in his right leg.

"Hehe, I'm just afraid that Oppa's leg will cramp too!" Son Chaeyoung giggled as if to take credit.

Gong Cheng saw her smile and smiled, thinking it was good.

……

"Where's Xiaocheng? Brother Dayu."

Park Jae-bum watched Kim Dae-woo leading several dance teachers over, wondering why he didn't see Gong Cheng?

Could he be working on a song? He knew Gong Cheng was busier than the others in the group. He and Lay didn't have any major plans at the moment, and Lin Yingxiong, let alone...

Only Gong Cheng spends the whole day going between the crew, practice room and composition room.

"Him? That brat, it's okay, I'll go call him." Jin Dayu's old face trembled. He knew where the kid had run off to without even thinking about it.

Twice's tenth member~
Who doesn’t know about JYP?

But some rumors in the company are getting more and more outrageous. Many trainees are saying that Gong Cheng became the tenth member of Twice in order to pursue Lim Nayeon...

As Gong Cheng's manager, he couldn't see that this brat was interested in Lim Nayeon. That's why he thought the rumors were nonsense. He didn't know how furious the brat would be after hearing it.
ho ho...

Thinking of this, Jin Dae-woo couldn't help but laugh out loud. He knocked on the door of Twice's practice room and coughed twice, "Xiao Cheng, it's time to work..."

……

Meanwhile, JYP did not have any preheating.

On the official website, two recent announcements about Gong Cheng were released.

First: [The Tarot Club, the official fan club for our artist, Tarot Makoto Miyagi, has officially been established. The fan club's name is Arcana. A standard Tarot deck consists of 78 cards, divided into 22 Major Arcana and 56 Minor Arcana. It is these 78 Arcana cards that make up Tarot. Arcana symbolizes all fans who love Tarot and the unity between Tarot and its fans.]

[The support color is silver-gray...]

The top post reads: [Our company announces that Tarot will make its next comeback as a limited-edition group...]

In Gong Cheng's practice room, Lin Yingxiong jumped up from the sofa.

He remembered Gong Cheng telling them that JYP would begin limiting the members of the group one by one today, both to warm up the group and stir up some hype, but also to maintain a sense of mystery and anticipation.

"Let's take a look together, brother." Gong Cheng smiled at Zhang Yixing and Park Jae-bum, took out his mobile phone and opened the official website of JYP.

According to his and Park Jin-young's idea, the debut mode of this limited group, except for himself and Park Jae-bum who was announced today, the remaining Lim Young-woong and Zhang Yixing will be announced on August 1st and September 1st respectively.

First use Park Jae-bum to boost the group's popularity, then use Lim Young-woong to buffer and take over, and finally release Zhang Yixing to spread the popularity to the highest level.

In October, they released the pre-release song "Blood, Sweat and Tears" and its MV, and officially launched Bombardment Meteor's debut at the end of the month.

"Brother, the photos are great, you look so handsome!" Zhang Yixing exclaimed as he looked at JYP's latest announcement. As for Gong Cheng, this guy's looks don't need any praise, right?
The first time he saw Gong Cheng, he was a little puzzled. Why didn't Lee Soo Man get Gong Cheng into SM?
[We have announced that Tarot will make their next comeback as a limited group and will begin the debut project of Bombardment Meteor. Please stay tuned for the specific debut date. Group members Tarot (Gong Cheng), Jay Park (Park Jae-Bum), ? , ? ]
