Chapter 997 Greedy
Recently, Ji Kyung-won's popularity has been rising since his solo, and the difference is only similar to the period when "Goblin" was still popular at the beginning of the year. Today alone, two hot topics appeared, one was a person breaking the record, and the other was going to see Twice's concert.
But until another piece of news gradually spread in the evening, the popularity of these two topics was suddenly overshadowed by one another.
With the constant promotion of fans, the internal quarrels of Aili watched by many people, and the enthusiastic discussions of many passers-by, the plot of Chi Jingyuan's personal variety show finally began to spread on a large scale on the Internet.
When many people came to see the stunning yet familiar villa landscape that appeared in the variety show, and the shot of Chi Jingyuan standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, looking down at the coastline and brushing his teeth, most of the audience could not hide the shock and surprise in their hearts.
There are many variety shows like Peninsula that expose artists’ residences and private lives. "I Live Alone" is a typical example. In addition, many personal variety shows will also show the artists’ lives, houses, and residences to some extent.
However, most of the artists in these variety shows are not doing well and live in rented houses or very small apartments. This is also in line with the pyramid-like ladder model of the Peninsula entertainment industry.
However, there are also some very lavish and luxurious ones, such as G-Dragon, Taeyang and other very successful artists, whose houses have also been shown in variety shows. Bae Suzy's new home has also appeared in her personal variety show. The expensive price of tens of billions, the exquisite and fashionable interior decoration, and the excellent location and view made many guests immediately look amazed and envious when they saw it, and they couldn't help but sigh that "the chaebol" and "TOP" are a company. "
The audience and fans couldn't help but admire them, feeling that these artists are really amazing and have such high incomes.
But compared with what Chi Jingyuan did today, all these pale in comparison and are left far behind.
If it was the former, for many viewers it would just be amazement and envy, and some of the expressions on the guests' faces during the show were performed. However, for Chi Jingyuan's residence shown in this personal variety show, it was an undisguised shock.
"Chaebol?"
"I saw the leak was about Beverly Hills. I checked and it turned out to be true. People who live in such places must be either rich or noble. Is Chi Jingyuan really a member of the royal family?"
"Over the years, I have seen so many entertainers in the entertainment industry who have established chaebol personas. Some say their family is a branch of SK, some say their family owns the second largest supermarket chain in the peninsula, some say their family runs a 60-hectare fishery, some say their family is the director of a hospital... They are so fantastic but there is no substantive evidence. Now I no longer believe in this kind of persona... But I personally feel that Chi Jingyuan's persona is more credible. With his popularity and current status, there is no need for him to engage in this kind of marketing."
"He was able to be airdropped into EXO, and when he was not very popular in his first year after his debut, he was directly cast as the male lead in a TV series. Lee Soo Man treated him like a father and supported him. He had the most resources in the team. After so many years of debut, there was no public negative news except for some private revelations on the Internet... After so many years and so much evidence, can't you see it?"
"Why do I feel like this is a deliberate character setting? The entire variety show was kept secret. There were even a few photos on the bedside to hint at it. After watching all of them, it still didn't say clearly whether it was his home or not... But to be honest, Chi Jingyuan's temperament really doesn't seem like something that can be cultivated by a small family."
"It must be fake. There is no truth in the entertainment industry. Anything that appears on camera is definitely arranged. Can you be more mature?"
The people of the peninsula have always had a strong interest in discussing things like wealth, especially when it comes to artists, a group that attracts the most attention from the public. Every time there is news like an artist revenue ranking or where an artist bought an expensive river view apartment, it will be very popular.
The eye-catching topic, coupled with Chi Jingyuan, the essential TOP, directly became the hottest topic after its influence continued to spread. Within a short period of time, several entries were on the hot search.
But in fact, compared to fans and passers-by on the Internet, the ones who were most deeply touched and affected by the exposure of this incident were other artists in the circle.
Because passers-by are just watching the fun and fans are excited for their idols, but they cannot come into contact with Chi Jingyuan.
Other idols in the circle are the ones who can often come into contact with Chi Jingyuan in person and can have the deepest feelings.
Especially the many female idols...
"Tsk tsk, Yuan is really a chaebol~"
In the TV station's waiting room, AOA was taking a break while waiting for their next event. They were chatting about a hot topic online. Team leader Shin Jimin was holding her phone and exclaiming:
"I just checked it out. The villa he exposed is the one that Kim Tan owns in The Heirs. When The Heirs was airing, someone had already dug up some information online, saying that the villa was considered quite luxurious even in Beverly Hills. At the time, it seemed to be worth at least 700 billion won, or billion. It must be even more expensive now... Well, that post has been pushed up again."
These female idols in the circle will not doubt whether something is true or false like passers-by on the Internet. After hearing some rumors and experiencing some things in the circle, they know that it is most likely true.
"Isn't it obvious?"
Kim Seolhyun, who was standing aside, crossed her legs. The short skirt she had changed into for stage costume revealed one-third of her plump buttocks due to her bold movements. However, no one around paid any attention to such an eye-catching scene.
She also looked at the news on her phone and said casually, "You saw Chi Jingyuan beat someone up at the SBS site at the end of the year a few years ago. He even called the representative or director over. Is this something an ordinary idol can do? Isn't the attitude of the director obvious? Our president and director are very careful when speaking."
When she said that, everyone immediately remembered...the fight between Ji Jingyuan and Jaehao that they witnessed backstage in 13 was very impressive to them.
At that time, I just saw that Chi Jingyuan had a strong background... but I didn't expect him to be so powerful.
"Then why didn't you make a move?" Shin Ji Min looked over and asked curiously, "Seolhyun, you found such a high-quality stock, why didn't you make a move?"
Surely she wouldn't be stupid enough to ask 'Do you like it?'
Who wouldn't like this kind of handsome, rich, and well-connected man? It's simply hard for female idols like them to resist. Just the fact that he can protect them is something that many people dream of, and will make many of their peers jealous.
She thinks that although Ji Jingyuan is excellent, Kim Seolhyun is still quite attractive to men.
"How do you know I didn't do anything?"
Kim Seolhyun curled her lips, seeming a little indignant.
She actually had a good impression of him before. She even found an opportunity to test the water when we were attending the Baeksang Arts Festival together, but it seemed like he wasn't very interested and wasn't attracted to her.
But at that time, I was just thinking about hunting for beauties, and when there was no response, I didn't worry about it.
But now looking at this news, I suddenly feel a little regretful. At that time, I really didn't know that the quality of this stock was beyond my expectations.
Now thinking about the rumors she had heard before, that Ji Kyung-won and Red Velvet's Bae Joo-hyun seemed to have dated, Kim Seolhyun felt a little indignant.
How is she inferior to that shorty?
"..."
Shin Jimin seemed to have seen something from Kim Seolhyun's expression. She smiled without revealing any trace and did not ask any more questions. She continued to read the comments online and said with emotion, "We are really experiencing the same plot as in the TV series where a rich young man ventures into the world?"
"It's not that exaggerated, is it?" The youngest member next to him whispered in a rebuttal, but just as he finished speaking, he was pierced by several speechless and contemptuous gazes from the people around him: "Do you know what 70 billion means? Do you know what a villa worth 70 billion means?"
Upon hearing this, Jin Chanmei shrank her head and shut up.
But I couldn't help but repeat the number 70 billion in my mind...
AOA only received their first profit three years after their debut, and so far, the profit received by all of them is less than 50 billion...
"Hey~ Do you have Chi Jingyuan's phone number or KakaoTalk?" At this time, Quan Min-ah, who had been silent, suddenly looked up and asked.
"Why, you want to chase him?"
Shin Jimin looked over with a playful look in his eyes and let out a strange laugh.
Although it was not stated explicitly, the meaning of this laughter was already very clear.
Do you like me?
As she spoke, Shin Ji-min looked around. She still felt that Kim Seol-hyun had the best chance. This woman's figure was really the best for the opposite sex.
...Last year, my relationship with ZICO lowered my own value a bit, which might make people feel that I am cheap.
"How can you know if you don't try..."
Of course Quan Min-ah understood what the captain meant. She glanced over with an unhappy look, but quickly suppressed it, and then sneered, saying very understandingly: "I'm not bad either. Maybe he likes my type. It's normal to change the taste occasionally when you get tired of the regular meal. And we don't have to be formally dating or anything. I like him because he is rich and handsome, and he likes me because I am beautiful and not clingy. How great."
"Men, once they get emotional and lustful, they don't care about anything else... Do you really think there are any good men in the industry who are self-disciplined? As long as you are proactive enough, no man can resist you."
Although this statement sounded a bit too confident, the members nearby did not refute it after hearing it.
Those who have been in the circle for a long time know that what she said is actually no problem...After hearing this, Kim Seolhyun's eyes flashed with thought.
Quan Min-ah looked at her phone, trying to get Chi Jingyuan's contact information, and sneered.
"Yuan is already popular in the industry. Now that the news is out, won't all those drooling women jump on her right away? You see, I'm definitely not the only one who wants this treasure."
"I heard that he seems to be dating a member of Twice. Tsk tsk, I don't know if this girl can keep it."
There will be more later
