How to become an ACE of a top boy group

[Radish Stickers][Celebrity Section]

[I'm so frustrated I'm thinking of quitting the game, how can I cope?]

1L (Original Poster)

I'm a fan of the group since their debut, and I'm a bit biased towards the third member. I started watching the show a few episodes after the audition, and I've watched all their promotional materials since then. I've also attended many offline events, and I've bought several million copies of their albums. I'm not saying this to show off, but just to prove that I have the right to speak on this.

Some might say I'm a fan of the group, and I do have some. Their initial performance wasn't particularly good, but they were already a shoo-in for the top spot in the fourth group, so I had high hopes. After all, it's rare for a newcomer to achieve that. But what was their new album like? Disappointment doesn't even begin to describe it; it was utterly awful, a complete disaster.

The MV for this chanting song is just the same old indoor scenes that the same group of male idols have filmed to death. It completely abandons the previous sweet and innocent image, going for this whole "sports chanting" vibe... The makeup and styling are awful, the song is terrible, and the choreography is just a few repetitive and incredibly boring moves. I couldn't even bear to watch a three-minute MV. No wonder the results are a disaster; the song is off the charts for a week, and the company isn't giving them any variety show promotions, just sending them to commercial performances and school anniversary events to make money. The stage design and lighting are terrible, and there aren't any truly memorable or breakout moments... My idol is constantly being targeted, and the central theme is only 18 seconds long. How dare this company do this?!

Not to mention the treatment compared to the other fan. Seriously, I was really looking forward to his return, but I've been angry and cried several times this past month. I feel so bad for him, and now I'm even thinking of quitting the fandom because of all this abuse.

Although they didn't mention names, it's obvious we're fans of the same thing. I've also been having a really tough month.

This makeup and styling is so drab and tacky! It's not that Xin's face can't look cute in anything, it's just that it's hard to imagine her looking like this.

4L

I know how painful it is. The company didn't treat him well at all. He was clearly the most fan-friendly, the strongest overall, and the most popular member of the group, but they still tried to suppress him, and he was completely destroyed.

5L

Looking at this dog company, Zhimo Ri, it's getting more and more disgusting.

A passerby just searched for FD's achievements. Has FD's popularity dropped so quickly? They were skyrocketing when they debuted, and now they're practically invisible? Their popularity isn't even as high as IL's variety shows...

7L

FD's comeback basically had no marketing and the company didn't care at all. IL's variety shows were all just push ads. All the resources were being taken by another group, so how could they possibly do well? Not to mention, the company is now churning out terrible songs.

8L

Are Fiction (D)'s resources really that bad? Don't you guys care how they became popular last year? Last year they were a hit, so you said it was a big company; now that they're not, you say they're company dogs. But Fiction (D) has already achieved incredible results as a rookie boy group. Even songs you said were bad have won two number one awards. This is another small company's boy group's ten years.

9L

It's a fact that GouMeng's resources have never been as good as Shin's. Shin's members all have luxury brands, but GouMeng's individual brands were even pushed aside by the company for protection. Does GouMeng have the same debut promotion and variety show resources as Shin? GouMeng's comeback this time, the makeup, styling, and MV are all perfunctory, it's obvious they didn't spend any money. Isn't that enough to prove the problem? If Shin dares to shoot a MV that costs more than GouMeng's next month, see if I won't criticize them.

10L

Only Xinzhu feels there was no bias in resources or abuse, because IL has taken all the benefits, so Meimei advises us to let go.

11L

In reality, only you die-hard fans of GouMeng would constantly feel abused and complain, constantly dragging others down and splitting Candle. I really like GouMeng, but this time, if the song wasn't good, it's fine to criticize the company, but why the internal fighting? Someone with ulterior motives stirred things up and it became an internal conflict. Shin's third brother missed listening to GouMeng's new album because he was on a show, and as a result, a bunch of die-hard fans went to his birthday livestream to criticize him. It was a birthday livestream! I'm speechless.

I lit it, but there were no dream candles or message candles at all; it was just a candle that was being torn apart internally for some reason.

13L

They seem to be used to being fans of celebrities, so they get anxious when they don't become famous.

14L

Then I hope your idol receives the same treatment. And that in the future, when your idol's performance is poor, you're not allowed to blame the company or our dream; it's all a blessing.

15L

Xiao Gou Meng will succeed on her own; there's no need to argue with these people who kick her when she's down.

16L

I've reported all the posts that are trying to start a fight. I think the song "Dream Building" is really good, and it will forever remain a candlelight. The twin groups are uniquely beautiful.

17L

Aside from Wavewe (the new boy group from Dream Star), their performances at the beginning of the year have been mediocre. Dream Star's previous success was largely due to the show's popularity, and without any good new material, their average results are understandable. In reality, even without the show's success, their comeback results wouldn't be too bad.

18L

Mexico and Japan wanted to continue the OG (One Origin) model of releasing one good song and living off it, frantically holding autograph sessions, commercial performances, and concerts to make money, but times have changed.

Honestly, I think the real enemy of Gou Meng isn't Xin, but Wei. The two groups are very similar, but Wei's debut concept, style, and talent selection are far superior.

1580L

What's the point of putting people down here?

1581L

To be honest, Gou Meng's debut album can't even beat Wei's debut album. Gou Meng's songs are really not good. It's just that I'm promoting Bao Huo because her fans are spoiling her. Anyone with ears would listen to Wei.

Wei's Ning Li and Ye Zhixi also participated in my recommendation, but the popularity was not as high as Xu Xian's. It has nothing to do with the program, but rather with the song. Gou Meng's debut album is still very good.

1593L

Xu Xian! Yes! The chosen idol! No wonder she was Mengxing's secret weapon for so many years, she's so captivating and adorable! She's beautiful, cute, and well-behaved!

1594L

Micro is a plagiarism fusion monster

1595L

I think that "Wei" and "Gou Meng" are not the same concept. One is a natural and youthful style, and the other is a fictional dream of a teenager. Does having the same number of characters mean it is plagiarism? Is Mo Ri the origin of all things?

Let's quit. There's no need to stay. It's just a one-year limited-time group formed through a talent show anyway. Once the contract expires, Xiao Xin will terminate it and go to a better company. We'll spend money then, but right now I'm just getting something for free. It's just a pity for Xiao Xin. An Kexin really doesn't deserve this. Leave quickly! Mo Ri never intended to develop you; they only wanted to promote someone else.

3417L

Who are they going to support? It's so hard to guess.

3418L

This ticket scalper not only has the entire company's support, but also manages to steal Xiao Xin's resources. Jin Luguixun initially followed Xiao Xin's personal account and even invited her to a fashion show, but for some reason, the ticket scalper ended up getting Jin Luguixun's endorsement deal, and the person who attended the show was also the ticket scalper. It's rumored that this ticket scalper bullied others during the talent show. I saw a post saying he was the illegitimate child of a high-ranking executive at a Mexican company, but it was deleted immediately. Xiao Xin is incredibly unlucky to have encountered someone like this, but she still has to pretend nothing happened and maintain a respectable image. This is what makes me most upset and angry.

Spreading rumors is illegal. Don't make things up without evidence. Weren't we sad when our Xixi was being attacked by your toxic fans and when you tried to smear her during her birthday live stream? Xixi even posted on the official Weibo account saying not to argue about this, which is why we, the Vitamin C fans, didn't argue. Do you think you're right just because we didn't say anything?

OK, now FD can be said to be completely finished.

[Forwarded: Fiction (D)'s Liu Jibai has been exposed for abandoning his pregnant ex-girlfriend, affecting Fiction (D)'s activities. MoRi Entertainment: We are verifying this.]

9326L

I really ahhhhh why, Liu Jibai, you ahhhhh my dream

9327L

Luckily, I quit the game early and sold all my items.

9328L

When I went on that talent show, they didn't even check my background. Now they've even brought out a child! Good grief, this is the first time I've ever seen anything like it.

9329L

Bai Bai hasn't responded yet, has she? Isn't the company investigating? What's the rush?

9330L

They've grown crystals on them and they're still like this, yet you say it's nothing?

……

Rumors that Liu Jibai abandoned his pregnant ex-girlfriend quickly spread online.

The incident began when an account claiming to be Liu Jibai's ex-girlfriend suddenly posted a lengthy exposé on social media. She claimed that before the show "My Favorite Treasure," Liu Jibai and she were already living together and dating. She had consistently supported Liu Jibai's talent show, but after his debut, he abruptly broke up with her. She didn't want to break up, but Liu repeatedly subjected her to emotional abuse, citing his involvement in his career. Now, she has discovered she is pregnant, presumably conceived on Monday night after the Lunar New Year when they met. She is now two months pregnant, and this is her first child. She is determined to give birth, but Liu refuses to acknowledge it as his. Two years of dating and hundreds of thousands of yuan invested have resulted in this outcome.

The woman posted photos of herself in bed with Liu, records of money transfers to Liu, and flirtatious chat logs with Liu.

Originally, no one took this short post seriously. Many people said she photoshopped it, and that her timeline didn't match Liu Jibai's schedule at all. Liu Jibai had a schedule during the New Year and it was impossible for him to meet her.

However, after Fiction (D) announced the list of participants for the Idol Star Athletics Championships, the short essay suddenly gained an incredible amount of exposure, with countless marketing accounts and videos reposting it, setting the stage for a surge in popularity and propelling it to the top of the trending searches.

As voices criticizing Liu Jibai grew louder, MoRi Entertainment, which had remained silent, issued a statement saying it would immediately begin an investigation.

Fiction (D) was inevitably affected. Not only was Liu Jibai's personal account filled with all sorts of "greetings", but An Kexin, Ming Ning, Liya, and Zhang Shuaizhen's personal accounts were also harassed and attacked.

Aside from Gu Minxing's three major fan sites swiftly cutting ties with and prohibiting any shipping of the Gu Minxing/Gu Minxing/Gu Minxing pairing, everything on ILitterer is peaceful. Lee Yong-hyun's fan site continues to post beautiful and unflattering photos and memes of him, Lu's fan site is following his solo variety show, cat lovers are cuddling cats daily, and Vitamin C's fan site is reposting his live streams and official fan cafe updates daily…
