Peninsula Asteroid

After Li Chenghuan brought Chi Jingyuan back to the company, he was called away. Chi Jingyuan didn't have anything to do today, so he returned to EXO's practice room.

At this time, the other four members of EXO-K except Park Chanyeol were in the practice room. Someone’s phone was playing a song on the floor and they were dancing to "History". Everyone danced very hard, every time They made a muffled sound when they stepped on the floor, as if they were venting, but overall they were not very neat. Although they were dancing to the same song, they looked very messy, and the dance postures of each beat were inconsistent.

Sweat dripped on the ground and was trampled to pieces in the blink of an eye. The practice room was filled with the sound of "History" music and the sound of dancing, but it didn't make people feel lively. Instead, it felt like a silence welling up from the bottom of my heart.

Chi Jingyuan was discovered as soon as he walked into the practice room. He keenly felt the atmosphere in the room. He pursed his lips and walked to the corner to sit down. He looked at the few people who were practicing from the corner of his eye and flipped through his phone unintentionally. With.

"Congratulations on your debut! Hamida, you are so envious of me..."

"I saw your stage and I thought it was pretty good. It's not like what the Internet said, Fighting!"

"EXO-K's several stages are quite good, and many trainees in the company like them very much."

"Fighting..."

These are the few messages Jiang Seulgi has sent to him in the past few days. She was still very happy when congratulating her on her debut. However, as the trend on the Internet became more and more wrong, although she still sent him messages every few days, We contacted each other through text messages, but the content and wording of the text messages became increasingly cautious and cautious.

Several text messages revealed that Jiang Seulgi wanted to keep in touch but was afraid of saying the wrong thing and making Chi Kyungwon angry, who was not doing well recently. These text messages reflected her care and shrewdness, which made Chi Jingyuan laugh in her heart.

He has a pretty good impression of Kang Seulgi. She was born in the same year. She looks silly when she smiles but is actually very smart. Although they haven't had dinner together since that day, they meet her often in the company, every few days. I'll also have a chat.

Chi Jingyuan responded directly to her messages, as if he was not affected by the negative comments at all.

To be honest, Chi Jingyuan really doesn't care about the bad reviews, and in fact, he is not affected at all. Even though the songs are mediocre and the group has poor reviews, he does not receive too many bad reviews, but the same cannot be said about his teammates.

This is the case during this period. As long as there is no announcement, the members of Team K will practice crazily in the practice room. They will not stop until they are exhausted. Every movement is like venting. After returning to the dormitory, the atmosphere is also... Not very good, full of anger, pessimism, and anxiety.

And Chi Jingyuan can only be a bystander at this time. He knows very well that in his current situation, he cannot say anything to comfort him. No matter how sincere comfort is said from him, it will make people feel uncomfortable and give people a feeling of comfort. A feeling of getting something cheap but still being good.

All Chi Jingyuan can do is stay silent and not add fuel to the fire. After a while, they will be able to adapt to it and correct their mentality.

To be honest, Chi Jingyuan felt that he could understand the mentality of his teammates and actively kept a low profile, which was considered a rational manifestation of self-cultivation. If someone who doesn't wink and likes to talk comes to sit in his place, they have already argued and beaten him countless times.

If you can't adapt, then the company can only ask them to adapt, otherwise they will have to be slowly eliminated.

Not long after, "History" was finished. Everyone was so tired that they lay down on the ground, panting heavily, but no one spoke. What was reflected in the huge floor-to-ceiling mirror looked like four dead bodies.

Chi Jingyuan sighed, got up and walked to the side, took a few bottles of ice water and handed them to everyone, and then continued to sit in the corner and absentmindedly play with his mobile phone.

………………

At the same time, in a conference room on the fourth floor of SM Company, several managers and senior executives were having a meeting, talking about matters with EXO.

Lee Soo Man and Kim Young Min were all present. In addition, representatives from several departments within SM Corporation were also present. Including the record production department that grasps market trends and reflects the singer's style, the marketing department that conducts publicity and sales, the publicity department that contacts the media and promotes artists, and other important departments.

EXO's manager Lee Seung-hwan, who had just returned to the company, was also pulled away to observe. When he entered, there had been a quarrel inside for quite some time.

"EXO-K encountered a lot of negative public opinion when it debuted, including deliberate guidance from trolls sent by other companies. However, the publicity department did not respond effectively and allowed those negative comments to spread. K The team is currently in this form, and publicity must bear an unshirkable responsibility..."

"Before the release of the title song "MAMA" and the debut stage, the publicity plan we set for EXO was very successful. According to data, compared to the publicity resources invested by the company, the attention the entire team received was much higher than expected. And some negative comments about EXO also increased their popularity..."

"You should be very clear in your own hearts that the reason why the attention is higher than expected is because the member Yuan is of very good quality and has an amazing ability to attract fans, so that he can make the popularity soar without extra resources, and this should be attributed to Director Lee Soo Man and President Kim Young Min who suggested Yuan to join EXO's project at the beginning have nothing to do with your publicity department. And I also heard that Yuan's debut teaser video that brought amazing popularity and click rate is Yu We adopted his own opinion..."

"But no matter how the popularity comes from, the attention will not be fake, it is real. As long as the title song of the first album can play a certain positive role in promoting, EXO-K will definitely not in terms of their popularity before their debut. This is the current situation, and excluding all the comments that contain hot and malicious comments, we found that most viewers don’t like to listen to the title song, and they are also very dissatisfied with the appearance of this debut, even if it is EXO-K The same goes for my own fans, so..."

Ever since Lee Seung-hwan came in, there was a lot of noise inside, the whole meeting was a blame meeting, each department expressed that they were irresponsible for the cold reception that EXO-K encountered after their debut, and that their departments had done a good enough job.

In fact, the people in these departments are also experienced people who have worked in the entertainment industry for many years. They are also very clear about the various reasons for EXO-K's situation in the peninsula. Ideas are applicable everywhere.

"Boom, boom, boom." After they had been arguing for a while, Li Xiuman, who had been listening for a long time, tapped the table with the back of his hand, and a few muffled sounds quieted the conference room.

I found that EXO's debut timeline is still a bit early, and the heroine I want to write about has not been able to appear on the stage yet. However, there are still many things that EXO can't jump over in the past two years.

If this book can't be signed, I will write GOT7 directly in the next book, producer + idol, and get all the hit songs of other boy groups.

Some friends have been asking who the heroine is, mainly writing four generations, main TWICE, and several other groups of four or five generations. Whether it's this one or the next one.
