"A lot less?"

Lin Nayeon blinked and repeated the word. After she came to her senses, her eyes widened and she said in disbelief, "Is 780 billion still a lot less?"

She originally thought that this number was completely exaggerated, but she didn't expect it to be "a lot less?"

After a few seconds of being in a daze, she panted heavily, and no one knew what she was thinking of. Her nose wrinkled and she said, "Boasting!"

"Ha ha……"

Yu Jeongyeon smiled when she saw her expression and poked her puffy cheek with her index finger: "What's there to brag about? Besides, Jingyuan Oppa doesn't have the habit of bragging. What do you think is..."

“But I heard from my agent that GOT7’s revenue of over billion last year was already very high.” Lim Nayeon retorted confidently.

"what are you talking about?"

After taking a cautious look at the surroundings, Yu Jeongyeon looked at her speechlessly and lowered her voice a little: "GOT... How can GOT7 be compared with XO? Although they are very good in Fan Oppa, but... these two groups are not in the same league at all, right?"

"But I remember that our company's revenue for the whole year last year was less than 50 billion, right?" Lin Nayeon has a good memory.

"Forehead……"

Yu Jeongyeon was a little speechless. After thinking for a while, she said with a strange expression: "Although I don't want to say it...but our company is not on the same level as SM."

"Okay, Yu Jeongyeon, you traitor!"

Lin Nayeon's eyes widened. She finally found the undercover who had been lurking around her for many years. Her momentum instantly rose: "Then Yu Jeongyeon, you go to SM. I am now on behalf of Twice and I am expelling you!"

As she spoke, she kept pushing Yu Jeongyeon with her hands, looking extremely angry and disgusted, and righteously cleared out the traitor.

"Just look at the stock price yourself. The market value is several levels lower... Do I need to tell you that?"

Although she was used to Lin Nayeon's childishness, she was still a little helpless. Yu Jeongyeon resisted the other party's offensive and continued to say, "And according to Jingyuan Oppa, the 780 billion is only EXO's team revenue, not including personal share..."

"..."

“Jeongyeon, come here for a moment.”

The two were arguing when they suddenly heard an assistant shouting from not far away. Yu Jeongyeon quickly separated from the childish girl, tidied her hair and walked over.

Seeing her sisters leave, Lin Nayeon felt a little bored after no one played with her. She took out her phone and continued to watch the news. She didn't know what she remembered. She turned up her lips and snorted:
"It's just bragging!"

…………

"Nearly 800 billion. Excluding the company, if nine people share it equally, each person will get several billion..."

"Jingyuan Oppa and his friends have the highest income among all the idols, and it seems that this does not include their personal income... Mina, do you know how much Jingyuan Oppa will get?"

Sun Caiying stared at the news on her phone and talked in amazement, then asked with great curiosity.

"do not know……"

Mingjing Nan shook his head.

She also saw the news, but compared to others she was not as surprised and excited.

She already knew that her boyfriend was very rich and had a good family background. Last time when he was talking on the phone with his brother, she even heard some incomprehensible figures like "dozens or even hundreds of properties." However, she had never asked about such topics before.

Because she and Chi Jingyuan had not been together for a very long time, it was okay for them to give each other gifts, but it was still not convenient to talk about things like income and family background.

Even though she likes him very much, Mingjing Nan is still very sensible in this regard and knows that the feelings between lovers need to be accumulated gradually.

However, Ming Jingnan really hoped and expected that the relationship between the two of them would slowly develop to this point... It was not because of money, but she really wanted to have the chance in the future to bring her boyfriend to meet her family, her mother, father, and yes, her brother.

She attaches great importance to her family and relatives. When she thinks of that scene, her heart jumps with joy and she feels full of happiness.

"800 billion 800 billion...How about Chaeyoung, you also find a XO member as your boyfriend?"

Listening to Son Chaeyoung's murmuring in a sticky voice, full of childish envy, Minatozaki Sana couldn't help but laugh, and teased in a sharp voice: "Isn't your ideal type the type with an interesting personality, and who also likes rap... Let me think, what do you think of Chanyeolxi?"

"Chanyeol Oppa..."

Hearing her say this, Sun Caiying raised her eyes and looked upwards, and actually started to think about it, as if she was taking it seriously.

But after a few seconds, her mouth turned down, her expression fell, and she shook her head helplessly: "No, Chanyeol oppa is pretty good, a member of XO, he is very interesting and handsome... But compared with Jingyuan oppa, I always feel that he is a lot worse, especially when compared with other members of XO, it is even more obvious."

She pouted and began to mutter in a rhythmic manner: "Although I...may not be as pretty as Mina, but after all, we are all Twice. If we are dating...my boyfriend can't be too different from her, otherwise it will be too much!"

At this point, she spoke in a small voice, as if a little embarrassed, but still muttered stubbornly: "I am also very strong-willed!"

She really likes Ming Jingnan and likes this sister's personality. She can say some things that everyone understands but is difficult to express very frankly, and she doesn't show any jealousy.

"Ha ha……"

Sun Caiying's worried and frank expression coupled with the mumbling look was really adorable. Ming Jingnan's eyes curved when he saw the second youngest member's expression and he couldn't help but laugh, and he moved closer to her in a somewhat intimate manner.

Sun Caiying took the opportunity to lean towards Mingjingnan and complained with some dissatisfaction: "Looking at it this way, it seems that there is no male idol in the entire circle who is like Jingyuan Oppa... Do we have to find someone outside the circle..."

"It's all Mina's fault. It will be hard for me to find a boyfriend in the future."

Her tone was complaining, but her expression and actions were coquettish. What she said completely hit the spot for Ming Jingnan, making her grin so hard that her gums were exposed.

The two people next to them were in a relationship, but Minatozaki Sana, who jokingly brought up this topic, looked a little out of place, and the smile on her face just now seemed to become unnatural.

Sun Caiying's unintentional words inadvertently touched her heart.

She... is also very strong-willed.

But soon, she suppressed her emotions, managed her expression, showed her little white teeth, and came close to them with a smile, listening to the conversation between Son Chaeyoung and Mingjingnan, and occasionally interrupting to make a comment.

"Well, come to think of it, when can we earn so much money?"

“Chaeyoung, don’t think about these impossible things! We are lucky to get the settlement so quickly.”

"It's just a thought, maybe...By the way, Mina, have you met Jingyuan Oppa recently?"

"Um... no, we have too many schedules and he is also very busy."

"It's okay... Isn't MMA the day after tomorrow? Jingyuan Oppa and the others will definitely be there too, so we'll see them then."

"Ah."

……

This Forbes ranking became the focus of national discussion in a very short period of time, and ranked high on many trending lists, although none of them reached the top of the list... because today is the college entrance examination day in the peninsula, and the whole country is paying attention to the students taking the exam, and entertainment news does not have an inherent advantage.

But there is still such a high volume of discussion, which is enough to illustrate the impact this news and list have caused among fans and the public.

After all, the reason why it has attracted so much attention is actually due to the worship of money. An annual income of nearly 800 billion is already a very scary number. Many well-known medium and large companies may not have such a much annual revenue.

At the same time, it is also because in the subconscious of many people, they still look down on the profession of idol, even for EXO, which is the top idol. But now they suddenly find that the income of idols can be so high, and they can be ranked alongside people like Adele and Taylor in well-known lists like Forbes.

In the subconscious of many Peninsula people, these Amei superstars are far more famous than local artists. When they suddenly saw EXO's name listed together with them, they couldn't help but feel shocked that their prejudices and doubts were slapped in the face.

It’s a bit sour, a bit unhappy… but actually I’m also a bit proud.

EXO and Big Bang have become the hottest topic in the past few days besides the college entrance examination...

Two days passed quickly and it was the day for this year's MMA.

As the first of the four major award ceremonies in the music industry, every year's MMA can be said to be a weather vane for this year's Kpop awards, attracting a lot of attention from fans who have been hungry and looking forward to it for a long time. The voting for the Popularity Award alone has been going on online for almost a month.

...AAA might have wanted to turn the 'Big Four' into the 'Big Five' this year, but it proved with its strength that it is not worthy of it.

However, the audience can only see the glorious side of the idols, but not the hard side.

On the 19th, Twice arrived at the MMA venue, Gocheok Dome, to rehearse at around a.m. when the sky was pitch black. However, they were not the first to arrive because IOI arrived earlier than them.

After several rounds of rehearsals, when they returned to the backstage panting, just as Son Chaeyoung and Mingjing Nan expected, they met EXO walking towards them.
"Anihasay..."

The nine people saluted and greeted each other, and their eyes naturally focused on the TOP boy group that has been the hottest topic in the past two days.
Although they had just attended AAA together three days ago, after the extremely hot Forbes incident in the past few days, when they met again, many people felt that EXO's familiar Oppa seniors seemed to be covered with a shining halo again.

However, EXO had obviously just arrived at the scene. They were all wearing cotton-padded jackets, and many of them looked sleepy... They were not as bright and shiny as imagined, and looked a little depressed and sad.

Unlike other members who observed each other, some people locked their eyes on Chi Jingyuan as soon as they met, such as Zhou Ziyu and Ming Jingnan who had not seen her boyfriend for a few days.

There hasn't been a chance to meet recently, and there wasn't any chance to communicate during the last AAA. She has missed her boyfriend for several days. Before coming here, she was thinking that if they met, they would have some sweet eye contact.

But in Mingjing Nan's bright eyes at this moment, Chi Jingyuan was carrying a shoulder bag, wearing a baseball cap and black-framed glasses. His face under the shadow of the hat brim looked very tired, and the whole person seemed to have no energy. After seeing Twice and her, he did not have any special expression. Facing the members' greetings, he just nodded simply and perfunctorily, and quickly swept his eyes around without life, as if he did not see her, and walked directly behind the members.

"..."

After passing her boyfriend, Ming Jingnan couldn't help but pursed her lips and looked back.

The meeting she had been looking forward to for several days ended so abruptly, which made her feel a little disappointed... But at the same time, she could see that Chi Jingyuan was not in a very good condition, so she was more worried.

"Oppa Jingyuan looks so tired, as if he hasn't woken up yet." Sun Caiying leaned over and whispered in her ear.

"Hmm~"

Chi Jingyuan was in a daze, unable to open his eyes, and followed the team like a walking corpse.

In order to complete the final progress of the song "Fireworks" and get it confirmed by JYP before the anniversary, he worked overtime in the company until very late in the past two days. He also had work and practice during the day and did not get enough rest.

Because Bae Suzy went to Hong Kong Island the day before yesterday to shoot her solo album MV, his filming tasks in the past two days were not heavy. However, there was a temporary problem with the filming of "Goblin" yesterday. He shot some rival scenes with Lee Dong Wook until midnight. After rushing back to the dormitory from the set, he didn't even sleep for an hour. He was pulled up by his agent and came to the rehearsal venue in confusion.

The rehearsal time for each group is specially arranged by the organizer according to the different situations of each group. Newcomers with lower seniority will be arranged in not very good time periods. Twice and IOI, who have to rush over in the middle of the night, are typical examples... EXO, which had just debuted, suffered the same fate.

However, according to convention and the experience of the past two years, with EXO's current popularity and their qualifications as senior members, their rehearsal time should be moved back a little bit and should not be scheduled so early.

Maybe it’s because this year’s MMA has super seniors like Crystal Boys…

At the same time, it suddenly started raining in Seoul these two days, and the temperature dropped sharply. Chi Jingyuan worked overtime one night the day before yesterday, and found that he had a cold when he got up yesterday. Today, the condition is slightly getting worse, and his overall condition is not very good.

Even though I saw my girlfriend just now and saw Zhou Ziyu looking at her... I was too lazy to say hello.

Soon they arrived at the waiting room assigned by the organizer. After entering, Chi Jingyuan found a place to sit down and prepared to catch up on some sleep. Before he put down his bag, he heard Bian Boxian's strange voice:

"Isn't this waiting room... a little small?"
