It's hard to be an idol

Chapter 350

"The distance between us is getting farther and farther. It seems that we can't be his help, but a few tufts of hair hanging on his tail. It is dispensable. If there is something, it can be used as a decoration. It's more neat."

"So, although he decided to quit the XO group, none of us will blame him. On the contrary, we wish him a smooth journey."

"No, no, there is no conflict between us, we are very harmonious, otherwise he wouldn't be the producer of our new album, right?"

"There is no conspiracy or any hidden threats. Everyone in our group knows that he wants to quit the team, and no one objects to it."

"The purpose of holding this press conference is probably to tell everyone that our XO has truly become the 'nine-member group' that everyone joked about before. We sincerely hope that fans can calm down. This is a decision we have considered for a long time. I hope Please don't have bad emotions, we hope that each of us can move towards a better future."

……

When Xu Lai followed Teacher He to the filming location of the second season of "Longing for Life", a press conference was going on at the venue rented by SM Company in Seoul, South Korea. All the Tea Egg members except Xu Lai They all temporarily put down their work and came to the press conference. The content of the press conference was about Xu Lai's withdrawal from Tea Egg.

The press conference has already been held, so it's not a joke, and the media rushed over here for a while.

Xu Lai debuted for more than a year and became a world superstar. XO has struggled for more than three years and has not yet become the number one in South Korea. In fact, the gap between the two has long been obvious, but fans selectively ignore it. Some people don't think this has anything to do with them, so naturally they don't think about it.

Of course, many people must have made similar forward-looking remarks. Unfortunately, Planet Fan was happy to have such an outstanding member in his group at that time, or he didn't like Xu Lai very much, but he didn't want to let Xu Lai Regarding the matter of retiring from the team (after all, Xu Lai has become the new brand of Chadan), those who made similar remarks have long been dismissed spontaneously by these fans. How can more people understand and think about it?

The "breakup" between Xu Lai and Cha Dan was much more formal than that of Lu Han and the three of them. There was no leaving without saying goodbye, no concealment, and no so-called contract, nor any lawsuit against the spirit of the contract. It's just that the news of the harmony between the two parties is made public.

Xu Lai himself did not come to the scene, but his manager was there and gave a speech under the authorization of Xu Lai. The general content was "I am very grateful to the members of XO for their kindness to him during this year's idol career." Take care, and thank you for the journey we have taken together. We will not be able to go on together in the future, but we can stand not far away and look at each other. I hope everyone can have a bright future."

The content is basically like this, full of politeness and good wishes.

Most of Chadan’s members are quite strange. When Xu Lai was in the group, they didn’t say anything good about him. Even under the arrangement of the company, they often couldn’t mention Xu Lai in public, except Apart from Park Chanyeol, others were slowly banned from bringing up Xu Lai as certain topics, and when Xu Lai withdrew from the tea egg, they all blessed him, no one said that he was not good at all, they all said Thank him for the honor he brought to them, thank him for spending his heart and soul to make a new album for the group, and hope he will be better in the future.

This is simply a model of the breakup between individual members and groups of SM, an unprecedented example of SM.

Before this, individuals who want to separate from the group usually have to go through a lot of struggle, and in the end either one party compromises, or they meet in court. Whether they win or lose, they don't look very good.

Just like the recent Lu Han, Wu sir, and Huang Zitao, all three of them terminated their contracts with SM and quit the team during the contract period, but all three of them went to court to sue SM, and it seems that only Lu Han won, Even if Lu Han wins the lawsuit and the contract is terminated, he still loses money.

And Xu Lai, as Chadan's fourth mainland member who quit the team, his treatment is completely opposite to that of the others. SM company held a special press conference to announce Xu Lai's withdrawal from the team, Chadan All the members of the team accepted his favor and said good things about him, and his resignation seemed to minimize the loss under certain circumstances.

However, even though Chadan and SM company have beautified Xu Lai's image, Xu Lai's beautified image can't be recognized by some fans, who are not reasonable and only talk about emotions. Even if Xu Lai made a new album for Chadan, Chadan once again had a tendency to reach the top, but as soon as Xu Lai quit the team, they changed their previous praise of Xu Lai and immediately began to scold him. Without him, the scolding was really ugly, as if it was the superposition of Lu Han and Huang Zitao.

Of course, these fans are just a group of Planet Fans. They are younger, know less, and are more likely to be emotional when doing things. Compared with those older Planet Fans, they are not mature enough. When dealing with their idols and former teammates In terms of relationship, it is not decent.

Everyone knows that Xu Lai and Park Chanyeol have a very good relationship, so even if Xu Lai and Chadan "broke up", many people think that they broke up peacefully. Since it is for the better development of each of them, it should be blessed, don't Because some bad remarks affected the friendly relationship between them.

Facts have proved that a good relationship with Xu Lai will get preferential treatment and better development opportunities, so some planetary fans did not yell and scold in anger when "Xu Lai retired from the team", but expressed their inner pity and blessings to the other party .

However, there are always few star-chasers who remain rational, and Xu Lai's reputation, which has just been cleansed by planetary fans, has turned sour again.

When Xu Lai heard about these voices from the Internet at the filming location of "Longing for Life", he was not shocked, but felt a little like laughing.

Think about what they looked like when he first joined the group, and then think about what they said when he and Chadan said "Brothers are good", and then look at what these people are thinking now...

The speed of face-changing is really fast, why not go to his hometown to learn face-changing?

The favors sent out were still in front of him, and he turned around and began to scold Xu Lai. It is typical to pick up the bowl to eat and put it down to scold his mother, not to mention that he started scolding while holding the bowl in his hand.

However, Xu Lai didn't care about them either.

He was already tired of hearing this kind of voice.During those three months in 2014.
