ps, a little moved, and patted his shoulder.Whenever we receive an award, we never truly feel happy because we always think we don't deserve it. But now, I remember a phrase a friend once told me, and..."Trash **, always exploiting the value of the brothers. Now they even debut this awful group to steal resources from the brothers. Boycott EXO!"

"Aren't SJ's older brothers about to enlist, so this lousy group debuted to snatch the resources from their hyungs"

"Our Shining wasn't well-funded to begin with, now we have to split resources with these groups that look like they have no future. It breaks my heart for the older brother."

"Now is the age of Girls' Generation, and the future is Girls' Generation, forever Girls' Generation!"

This person is a close associate of high-level executives at ** Company, but their abilities are exceptionally weak. Don't be fooled by their looks.

"A trash Yuan parachuting team, taking advantage of being a relative to push out senior players, resist!"

“…………”

"... "

"

"A garbage Yuan parachute team, relying on their connections to push out senior veterans. Boycott! Hahaha…" Ji Jingyuan read out this evaluation softly, unable to help but chuckle.

He took advantage of his break to browse through the top-rated comments under his debut video. Many praised him, which made him feel good. Being liked by others is naturally a delightful and happy thing. There were also some sarcastic and negative comments, but he just took them as jokes.

To be honest, he actually found it quite amusing to read reviews about himself, both the good and the bad. He's picked up a new hobby now, just browsing for fun whenever he has nothing else to do.

After a while, he discovered there was no movement around him. He glanced at the people beside him and asked in doubt, "What are you all so serious about"

“Do Kyung-soo gave him a curious look, as if wondering why Ji Jingyuan could smile so calmly while reading his negative comments. He sighed and said, “Don't you see that your comment section has a lot of negativity A lot of them are from fans of senior colleagues in the company.”

"There are quite a few... " Chi Jingyuan nodded, flipping his phone screen upward: "There are SJ fans, SHINee fans, oh, and a lot of Girls' Generation fans too... Well... F(X) fans have joined in the fun as well. Wow, look at this comment, they are so enthusiastic. Hmm, why aren't there any TVXQ senior fans here"

"Well now, that's a positive attitude." Captain Kim Jun-Myeol, who had been listening quietly all along, couldn't help but chime in.

"Recently, there have been a lot more negative comments about our group," said Do Kyung-soo. "The comments you see are mostly in every debut member's video saying that we stole the seniors' resources, and some people even said some really hurtful things."

"I have no idea how I offended these seniors." Wu Shixun leaned against the wall unhappily.

"Seniors actually don't have much of an opinion about us, it's mainly the fans. Many fans are not very rational. There's nothing seniors can say about this kind of thing." Kim Jun Myeon explained, even their own fans can't do anything about this, the key is that recently the company doesn't have any thoughts on these comments, they just let it be."

Ji Jingyuan didn't mind at all. Negative reviews had little impact on him. The company was responsible for managing online reviews, and if the group wasn't profitable, it was the company that should be worried.

He quietly withdrew from the discussion about the bad reviews and took a break on the side.

Just then, the phone suddenly vibrated and received a message, it was from Sunny.

"How much did you pay the PD who filmed your video They made you look so good."

Chi Jingyuan smiled and replied with his phone:

"It's probably around one million. I begged him for a long time (￣︶￣) .”

Sunny replied quickly:

"One million could get this good of a look, let that PD shoot me once too, shoot better than you and attract some fans. And how did you make that smile face"

"Sunny's angry words might cost more than ten million, the specific amount is estimated to take some time to discuss. (￣▽￣)"

You think you can fool me by saying I'm not as pretty as you in a different way ￣￣—— "

"How the heck did you get that emoji! Don't let your seniors keep asking you about it, do you understand manners Don't make your seniors angry!" Two consecutive messages came one after another.

"Ani, it's because anger is obvious that I said so." Ji Jingyuan replied first, then sent a few combinations of emojis.

Emojis are just something he does when he's bored and playing around on his phone. There's nothing to it.

After that, the two sent a few more text messages. After Sunny learned to use emoticons, they ended their chat: "I have to start recording now. By the way, congratulations on 'Le's maknae debut video being released. I watched the video, and as a senior, I feel you must have done great! (￣︶￣)"

“Thank you, Nuna, for your concern amidst your busy schedule.” After sending that final reply, Ji Jingyuan put away his phone. His break time was over, and he returned to practice.

…………

The promotional video for Ji Jingyuan's debut was well-made, but he himself believes that this is more likely due to his excellent qualities. After the video was released, he clearly felt a difference.

>The day after the video was released, he and a few people, including D.O., were returning to the company after dinner one night. They saw several girls squatting across the street from the entrance, waiting and looking around. One of the girls, while scanning her surroundings, saw him and froze. Her small eyes widened like an egg, and she stared at him while letting out a scream.

After screaming, she pulled her several female friends and ran over. They suddenly rushed to Chi Jingyuan's face, but they didn't get too close. Maybe they were a little afraid, or maybe they couldn't believe it. Several people just covered their mouths and looked at him with wide eyes. Although they had recognized Chi Jingyuan, their voices trembled as they asked:

"Yuan Is that Yuan"

"Annyeonghaseyo, Yuan Yimida." Chi Jingyuan nodded, facing these who might be his first fans in his art career. He pursed his lips and a genuine smile appeared on his face.

"Ah!!"

Screams echoed all around, several fans clutched each other's clothes and jumped excitedly, their enthusiasm evident. Meanwhile, Ji-sung just stood there waiting, casually glancing at the fans, committing each of their faces to memory. Doyoung and Sehun, who had been walking beside him, exchanged a glance and silently stepped back a few steps.

They were excited for a moment, but then they seemed to realize that this behavior was inappropriate on the street. Afraid of causing trouble for Chi Jingyuan, they fell silent and stared at him for a while. The girl at the front trembled slightly and said:

“I, we are all your fans, yes, after watching your debut video, I fell for you, you, you…” Looking at the radiant smile that appeared in front of her on the screen, she suddenly couldn't speak.

"They're so pretty in real life..." "She doesn't even have makeup on and her skin is still so good." "I'm crazy..." A few girls whispered behind them.

"Inside, thank you very much for your liking. This is the first time I have met my fans. You may not be able to see it, but in fact, seeing you makes me just as excited as you are." Ji Jingyuan bowed his head in thanks, then looked at a few people and said with a smile.

"Really" "Oh!" Several girls hugged each other.

They didn't actually know each other before. It was only after they arrived here and started asking around that they discovered they had all come to support Yuan after watching his debut video. After realizing they shared the same goal, the few of them quickly chatted together, praising and admiring Chi Jingyuan. In a very short time, they became friends.

“Well, you should probably keep practicing. We don’t want to bother you anymore.” After the initial excitement subsided, several fans gradually calmed down and looked at Ji-seong with reluctance, saying words of blessing: "EXO will do great, Yuan will definitely succeed too, we will always support you."

I felt like this meeting was coming to an end. Several fans were reluctant, but they didn't insist. Instead, they sincerely wished me well.

"Chi Jingyuan stopped his steps just as he was about to leave, looked at the few fans in front of him, hesitated for a moment before guiding them: "Perhaps... could I know your names"

"Huh Okay, okay!" Several fans were a bit incredulous after hearing this and quickly said, "I'm Park Soo-na..."

"I am Yoon Ji-eun..."

“I am Zhang Enjing…”

"I am Zhang Zhiyan..."

"I am Lee Min Young..."

Soon, a few people introduced themselves, and Ji Jingyuan also remembered their names and appearances one by one. After bowing to express his gratitude, he returned to the company with the other two members.

And as Chi Jingyuan stepped through the gate, he couldn't help but glance back. The fans were still standing there, staring at him. They were even more excited when they saw him look back and gave him a 'Fighting' gesture.

'Whew…' Chi Jingyuan let out a long sigh as he walked into the company. It was indeed a good feeling to be surrounded and liked by people.
