Chapter 232: Let's Speak Plain
"Ah, it's a blessing to have a game maker to eat yourself, no wonder you have so many more game endorsements for your girls' generation than us!"
As if complaining and complaining, Kim Hee-cheol said such a sentence.
"How can there be, the games we have endorsed, and the makers may not all be our food. Taeyeon tilted her head and muttered, "I didn't feel that they were our food when I worked with them before, and I didn't feel that they were our food, and their attitude towards us was very ordinary when we met, that is, the threesome studio Liu Zuò is a little more special." ”
The three zuò people Taeyeon is talking about, of course, they are Jung Young-seok of Lodumani Studio, Lee Eun-seok of Hellcat Studio, and Kim Jong-taek of NEOPLE Company.
"Then why don't they look for us Superjunior, but for you girls?" Kim Hee-cheol slammed his fist on the table a few times, making a look of loss and depression, "Aren't we as popular as Girls' Generation? Why have we only endorsed one "move_up", obviously if we play games, we are much more powerful than you!"
"move_up" is a dance online game similar to "Audition", jointly developed by two Korean game companies, GFGAME and ROCKSOFT, and is known as the test work of South Korean music website Soribada to enter the online game operation market.
This is the only online game that Superjunior has endorsed so far, and it does seem much weaker compared to Girls' Generation's game endorsement qualifications.
As the same brother of the predecessors, it is also a top male idol group that is also dominant in the Korean music industry, and has also achieved achievements in the variety show industry and the film and television industry, but it is inferior in terms of game endorsement, which really hurts self-esteem.
What's more, just like Kim Hee-cheol just said, if you want to play games, Superjunior, who is a man, must be more talented than Girls' Generation.
Taeyeon couldn't help but be speechless when Kim Hee-cheol said a few words, posing like a flower with his hands on his cheeks, squinting his eyes and sticking out his tongue, trying to appease the other party by selling cuteness.
Regarding this matter, Duan Shanshan has a different opinion.
"Hecheshi, that's right. You know, online game players are generally male, right?"
This is common sense, Kim Hee-cheol nodded blankly.
Duan Shanshan clapped his hands, then spread his hands, and said frankly: "That's right! Since the mainstream audience of the game is men, the operating company should consider the appeal on the audience's side, and female idols naturally have more advantages than male idols - after all, the vast majority of male players eat female idols." ”
"I see, Planning Duan, you said this, it sounds quite reasonable. Kim Hee-cheol patted his thigh as if he had just woken up from a dream, "No wonder "move_up" will come to us for promotional endorsements, it is said that the gender of the players of this game is mostly female......
Although the proportion of male players is much higher than that of women in the vast majority of online games, there are always exceptions, and dance online games tend to have a more balanced gender ratio, and there are even more female players than male players.
"Audition" was once in the Celestial Empire, and there were often situations where an entire room was full of female players. Because there are too few male players, it is "not enough", and even female players are forced to go to social networking platforms to blow up photos to attract male players to join......
Therefore, it is logical for this type of dance type of online game to find male idols instead of female idols for endorsements.
If several people get together to chat, if everyone is a strong and active social character, it is likely that they will eventually become rushing to speak or have disputes, which is easy to cause mutual displeasure.
However, if everyone is introverted and passive, it is easy to lead the cold and make the atmosphere awkward.
Among the three people in this room, Duan Shanshan and Taeyeon have introverted and passive social personalities, and only Kim Hee-cheol is more aggressive and active.
On the other hand, Kim Hee-cheol is not an extremely strong person, and he only knows how to express himself. When others speak, he can often play the role of a listener very appropriately, sometimes admiring and agreeing, sometimes complaining in a measured manner. Taeyeon herself has been the MC of "Kiss Radio" and "Ride the Victory", and she can pick up or respond appropriately to the topics thrown by others. Duan Shanshan, on the other hand, has a certain advantage in experience because of his age, occupation and hobbies, and he has no insight in his conversation, at least he will not leave the impression of boring words and hateful face to others.
So the atmosphere of this meal was very good, the three of them felt very happy to chat, and the relationship between Duan Shanshan and these two popular idols became closer unconsciously.
So Kim Hee-cheol and Taeyeon asked Duan Shanshan not to use honorifics against them, and Duan Shanshan also asked the two of them in return.
The two of them disagreed at first, even if Duan Shanshan repeatedly explained that in the Celestial Empire, honorifics are generally only used for elders, bosses, and customers, and there are several common forms such as please, you, and you, and you will generally not be used to get along with older peer friends or senior colleagues, unless it is a stage where the relationship is still relatively unfamiliar - in other words, it is to see outside.
It wasn't until Duan Shanshan replied to them that they reluctantly agreed to speak plain language to each other in private.
"With such a die-hard meal as Liu Zhizuò, Yun'er's kid must be very happy, right?" When the meal was almost coming to an end, Jin Xiche asked casually, and then laughed, "Ah, it feels really comfortable to talk to Duan Planner in plain language." ”
The first sentence was asked by Taeyeon, but the latter sentence was said by turning his head to Duan Shanshan.
Yuna is happy?
Taeyeon couldn't help but sneer, then quickly covered her mouth, lowered her head in disdain, and played with the stainless steel chopsticks in her hand without making a sound.
Yun'er's attitude towards Liu Kewei is not blind, anyone can see that it is already excluded to a certain limit. Duan Shanshan is naturally no exception.
Yesterday all night, she barely glanced at Liu Kewei, except for the last attempt to dig a pit for the threesome to jump, but she fell into the pit, and after Liu Kewei sang the last song "Reason to Leave Me", her face was like a cat that was teased.
After all, she is just a little girl who has just turned twenty, and she is praised or spoiled by the company, teammates and fans, and she lacks experience in expression management, and what thoughts in her heart are often easily revealed on her face.
Maybe she thought that her little thoughts were buried deeply, but she didn't know that they were as clear as watching fire in front of a discerning person.
"I think it's the opposite, Yun Er Xi almost can't wait to eat our Liu Zhizuò raw with dipping sauce......" As a teammate, Taeyeon is not easy to say, Duan Shanshan will not have any scruples. Anyway, for him, complaining about Liu Kewei has become a reflex-like instinct in life, "Last night, I accidentally saw Yun'er Xi gritting her teeth and squinting at us Liu Zhizuò, that look, tsk......"
He tried to learn Yoona's expression at that time, and Taeyeon glanced up and immediately smiled on the table and couldn't get up for a long time.
With the same expression, Yun'er may have a little playful and cute taste if she comes to do it, let a middle-aged uncle like Duan Shanshan imitate it, the effect is even more terrifying than Dong Shi's imitation.
"Hey, uh?" Kim Hee-cheol is a little bit comprehensible, he can pull two colleagues who are not keen on kpop to go with him to support the concert of his youth, and he has various projects in his hand that can cooperate with him in terms of promotion and publicity, why is such a super diehard of Yuna Weifan so disgusted by Yuna herself?
"Could it be that this Liu Zhizuò accidentally offended Yun'er somewhere before?" he asked tentatively.
The few times Liu Kewei and Yun'er met, Duan Shanshan was all present. As a colleague and roommate who has been together for most of the 24 hours, he is also very aware of Liu Kewei's movements, and it should be unlikely that the two of them will have any other opportunities to get in touch.
Duan Shanshan shook his head blankly after thinking for a long time: "As far as I know, we Liu Zhizuò should not have offended Yun'er Xi, on the contrary, even when we went to participate in the autograph session of our youth, we Liu Zhizuò only gave Yun'er a gift of support. So I'm also wondering why Yun Erxi is so resistant to us Liu Zhizuò......"
"You guys also went to the autograph session when you were young?Just like a normal sone?Wow, it's so nice to have a person who eats your own game, I can't help but envy Yuna!" Kim Hee-cheol was stunned, he had never expected the maker of "move_up" to participate in the Superjunior autograph.
Needless to say, Duan Shanshan is an outsider, and compared to Kim Hee-cheol, Taeyeon, the captain, naturally has a deeper understanding of Yun'a, who meets day and night. At this time, she covered her head, with a weak expression: "Actually...... This responsibility may be mainly on us, because she has always had more food, and we occasionally envy her, so it is inevitable that we can't help but ridicule and complain. Yun'er is the second-to-last member of our group, but she is the one with the most announcements, and the pressure inside and outside the team is relatively great, and she is angry with us, and she can't attack us, so she probably moved her anger to Liu Zhizuò......"
"Ah, Kim Tae-yeon, you, the captain Ernie, know that this is not right, how can you still do this!" Kim Hee-cheol stretched out his index finger and poked Taeyeon in the back of the head.
"Ahh......h
Jin Xiche looked at Taeyeon's lazy appearance with a smile, thought about it and turned his head to Duan Shanshan and said sincerely: "Our Yun'er child, Duan Planning may also know that he grew up in a single-parent family, so he may be relatively insecure. I hope that Duan Planner can help her explain to that Liu Zhizuò, she has always been more cautious about outsiders, even among insiders, there are not too many people who can get closer to her. It's a personality issue, and it's not aimed at anyone in particular, so please don't get him wrong. ”
So that's what happened!
Duan Shanshan nodded silently, but in his opinion, with Liu Kewei's loyalty to Yun'er, it doesn't matter if he explains it or not.
