Chapter 52: No insider, some VIP jokes End of the second week of March. "Haru Ai Sakura" continued to gain momentum, winning its second weekly championship on all music sites including Melon, and continued to maintain its dominance as Perfect All Kill. It is worth mentioning that BIGBANG’s “Blue” has dropped to fourth place on the daily chart, surpassed by “Fantastic Baby” from the same album and Kim Semyung’s “Shower”. As a song with a lyrical style, "Blue" is most obviously affected by "Spring Love Sakura" and its stamina is obviously lacking. Instead, the song "Fantastic Baby" with the strongest rhythm emerged as a dark horse and won the love of many young people. Of course, there are many VIPs who saw that "Blue" was ineffective and turned their efforts to promote "Fantastic Baby". After suffering a great setback and losing a lot of popularity, VIP has restrained itself recently, unified its tone and started to change its rhetoric. They suddenly stopped mentioning the strongest sound source among boy bands, which once made them proud and enabled them to win every battle against their rivals. Instead, they write about other aspects such as YouTube views, single digits, sales, historical status, etc. "The album 'Alive' sold 68900 copies in its first week. It is estimated that it has already sold more than copies. On the other hand...kkkkk..."

"This week, 'Blue' won 2 first places, and 'Fantastic Baby' won 1 first place. Why didn't a certain song win any? Do you not like it?" "Stop talking like that. If you continue, someone's stage fright will get worse. I'm afraid he won't dare to perform live in his life." "The number of views on YouTube is enough to show who is more popular overseas. Those who understand will understand that our Dabang is an international superstar and is not on the same level as some singers." "Fans in mainland China, can you please help with the sales? You are so good at boosting the source of music, so you must be good at boosting the sales too. You should at least support thousands of albums, right?" "My friend who studied in China told me that people there have no sense of authenticity. With the little sales they contribute, they may not even be able to afford a watermelon!" There was a cheerful atmosphere among the fans. VIPs know how to comfort themselves. No matter whether passers-by buy their rhetoric or not, they believe it first. Until a senior VIP brought back a picture from a forum in mainland China. The Korean translation is also very considerately marked on it. "Mo? What kind of April Fool's joke is this? You told me that thief pre-sold 2 albums in China?" “Fake News! It’s either fake news or it’s exaggerated!” "How can the loss be so high? Impossible, absolutely impossible!" "It's disgusting. All kinds of fraud are disrupting the market. Don't our country's prosecutors investigate it?" The VIPs were still furious when someone took a screenshot of a picture on Naver's trending search. "Is he crazy? With 7 pre-sales, why doesn't he go up to the sky?" "Shit! They stole our oppa's first place by faking the source of the music, and now they are even faking the sales. Will they even inflate the YouTube plays next?" "If this continues, KPOP will be ruined by that Chinese sooner or later!" "Let's go to Qingtai and petition to execute him!" "I have never hated an artist so much. I really hope some national warrior can stand up and kill this beast for the country!"

Inside the fan site, everyone immediately heard Xiba's song. …… Huang Enfei, who is "undercover" at the BIGBANG fan site, once again served as a frontline reporter, reporting live news on time for the trainees of BD Entertainment. It is true that she is a BIGBANG fan, but it is limited to their music. Huang Enfei also hates those extreme VIPs. No insider, some VIP jokes! "I have no problem with BIGBANG, but why are their fans like this? It's too crazy!" Zheng Yilin couldn't help but complain. By the way, she is a SHINee fan and has been a fan since she was an elementary school student. “When it comes to the fighting power and madness of fans, I think VIP fans are not even worthy of the title. You still have to be a fan of SM’s boy band.” Li LUDA said bluntly. From the White Sea in the early years to the Red Family and Blue Family later on, all the leading boy bands of SM have crazy fan clubs. Moreover, when the boy band members of SM become crazy, they even attack their own members, which can be regarded as a fine tradition of the Sima family. From Girls' Generation's Black Sea incident, it is not difficult to see that SM not only failed to restrain fans from going crazy, but instead secretly fanned the flames and almost ruined everything completely. "Having said that, President-nim's new album is really a hit this time. The pre-sale sales have surpassed BIGBANG's first-week sales. It will definitely be in the top ten of the G Chart this year," Choi Yuna analyzed. "Alas, the sound source of "Spring Love Sakura" is so strong, and now the sales are also up. If President Nim participates in a music show, he will be able to get a lot of first place." Ding Enfei pouted and felt sorry for Jin Shiming. "I heard online that the three major TV stations have invited President Nim to promote his songs several times, but he refused every time," Kim Ye-won echoed. Everyone turned their heads to look at Kim Sejeong at the same time. They are actually very curious about why Jin Shiming is unwilling to participate in music shows. It can't be that he really suffers from stage fright as rumored online, right? "Oppa may have some concerns. I'm not in a position to ask for the specific reasons." Kim Sejeong said frankly. She also cares about this matter very much, including the fact that after Jin Shiming failed in his debut, he said he would transform into a producer. There seems to be some secrets hidden behind this series of things. She wanted to ask Jin Shiming, but she was a little nervous and worried, so she couldn't open her mouth for a while. Jin Shaoqing, who knew the inside story, clapped his hands, interrupted the topic, and said seriously: "Kids, be careful these days, especially when entering and leaving the company, pay attention to whether there are any suspicious people nearby. It's best not to go to the bathroom alone, go in groups of two or three, and you can also look after each other." Although most of the outrageous comments made by VIPs on fan sites are just empty talk, who knows if there will really be brainless fans who will launch offline attacks? It's always a good thing to be on guard against others and be cautious. Jin Shaoqing is quite dignified as the eldest sister among the trainees. It's ok for her to joke and play around on weekdays, but once she speaks seriously, no one dares to question her. What's more, Jin Shaoqing's reminder was well-intentioned. After finishing the serious business, the topic returned to daily gossip. "By the way, did you know that the company has recruited two new trainees? They are now in the office of President Nim!" "I just glanced at her briefly. Naomuga Kiyo, a certified beauty chosen by God!" "God's chosen beauty? Can she be as pretty as me?" "It is said that one of them is Chinese, specially selected from the mainland by the company, and the other is an islander, hand-picked by the president-nim!"

"Ah, then don't they all have strong candidates for the debut group? Our chances of debuting are even less!" "If we discuss it rationally, having foreign members in a team can obviously increase the popularity of the team. For example, miss A and f(x) have benefited from having Chinese members in their team." "Instead of dwelling on others, focus on improving yourself. Keep practicing!" (End of this chapter)
