Chapter 379 Win-win
"There's something wrong."

In a female dormitory of Linjiang Normal University, Wang Peini said with a hint of doubt:
"Why are netizens so kind recently? There aren't even a few people complaining about Bai Xingjian. It's beyond my expectation. I thought Bai Xingjian would be scolded after his Squid Game was exposed, but I didn't expect that almost all the comments on Weibo were positive."

It has been two days since the news that Bai Xingjian's new drama is called "Squid Game" was revealed, and netizens have been discussing this topic for quite some time.

Not only on Weibo, but also on other major social platforms, many netizens are supportive of Bai Xingjian's decision to film "Squid Game".

This surprised many people.

"Maybe everyone wants to see those netizens from Corea get slapped in the face. After all, their insults were really dirty."

Liu Yue raised her eyebrows and said with a smile, "And it seems that our netizens have already started to curse at the netizens on the Coria side. Who would curse Bai Xingjian at this juncture? Of course, we are united against the outside world."

"I can only say that those Koria people are really uncultured."

Rossi said angrily, "If I had access to the Internet, I would definitely go to support our friendly forces and let those people in Correa see how powerful we are."

Lai Jie pursed her lips and said with gritted teeth, "I just hope that Bai Xingjian can make "Squid Game" a hit, so that the people in Corea can love it to bits. Then we can recreate the famous scene of 'Today you ignore me, tomorrow you can't afford me', and we can vent our anger!"

"That's it!"

When it comes to this topic, Wang Pei Ni couldn't help but clench her fists and said indignantly:

"Those people in Coria told Bai Xingjian not to taint their culture. How can their tiny country have any culture? Most of the culture was probably passed down from us."

"Well, I can only say that the explosion of 'Korean Wave' a few years ago did give them a lot of cultural confidence."

Liu Yue couldn't help but sigh, "But these are not the reasons for them to deliberately slander Bai Xingjian. Damn it, Bai Xingjian is scolded by our domestic netizens, but are these Korea people qualified to scold him?"

Liu Yue became more and more angry as she spoke. She jumped up from the bed, walked to the desk under the bed, and opened her laptop.

"No, I can't help it. I'm going to use the Internet in a scientific way and confront those netizens in Correa who don't know how to spell politeness!"

Liu Yue said angrily, and after turning on the laptop, her hands began to fly on the keyboard.

"Yueyue, please share your scientific way of surfing the Internet with the group. I also want to check it out." Lai Jie tried to join the battle.

"I want to come too! I want to come too!" Wang Pei Ni said the same thing.

Rossi naturally followed closely behind.

Before long, the four of them were online with the netizens from Corea.

It’s not a problem if you don’t know Korean, just use language translation software.

It’s strange to say, when the news of Bai Xingjian filming "Squid Game" was exposed, there was not much criticism about him on domestic social platforms, but on the social platforms in Corea, the criticism about Bai Xingjian was extremely hot.

The popularity of several topics about Bai Xingjian remains high.

Some people even formed an anti-white alliance, and even the Galaxy Girl was affected.

"No, what's going on now? Isn't it going to be a repeat of what happened to Park Ji-jae and 'The Voice 2024' last year?"

In a hotel suite in Jeju Island, Song Yuhan, one of the members of Galaxy Girls, looked at the content displayed on her mobile phone with a helpless expression.

She was reading the comments section of a post, which was almost entirely filled with negative comments about Bai Xingjian.

[What does Bai Xingjian want to do? Does he think that the movie "All or Nothing" he shot was not eye-catching enough, so he plans to shoot something even more eye-catching to disgust us? ]

[Say less, everyone. If you hadn't criticized "All or Nothing" so harshly before, which made Bai Xingjian rebellious, he would never have used our Squid game to cause trouble. We might be the ones who suffer the consequences.]

[That's right! What if Bai Xingjian says in his web drama that the origin of the Squid Game is China? The media people in China are very familiar with doing this kind of thing! ]

[Fuck! You are so familiar with this! You petty-minded Koria people are actually rebelling against me. You are so shameless! Don't be shameless!]

[Ah! There is a spy who exposed himself in our comment section. Quick, quick, quick, the blogger should block him! ]

[I can only say that with Bai Xingjian's shooting level, in addition to our "Squid Game" being tarnished, Lee Jung Jae Oppa, Park Ha Soo Oppa, Wi Gu Hyun Oppa and Quan Junhao Oppa, their days will probably be difficult. ]

[I wonder if these handsome oppas can still eat our kimchi after going to China? They must be very uncomfortable with China's eating habits, right? ]

[Hey, have you noticed a problem? Most of the actors Bai Xingjian recruited are male, and there are only one or two female actors. Do you think Bai Xingjian is a bronze actor? ]

[Don’t say it, don’t say it! ]

[It’s a bit scary when you think about it! ]

"Fuck it, it's really scary when you think about it, how come these people don't have any brains at all?"

Shu Yaqian looked at the content on Song Yuhan's phone. Although she was always gentle, she couldn't help but swear.

This made several members of the Galaxy Girls around them look quite surprised.

But when they thought that these people were scolding Bai Xingjian, Tang Tang and the other girls could understand Shu Yaqian's mood at the moment.

"Brother Xing Jian is just filming a web drama. Logically speaking, it shouldn't have such a big impact in Coria."

On the sofa, Tang Tang held his chin with one hand, and said thoughtfully, "Even if the movie "All or Nothing" that was released here before did not satisfy everyone and even caused ridicule from some people, it would not have evolved into a large-scale ridicule like it is now, right? Is there someone behind this?"

Song Yuhan agreed with Tang Tang's statement: "But who dislikes Brother Xing Jian so much? He doesn't seem to have any grudges with anyone here."

Several girls from Galaxy Girls were brainstorming, and they all unanimously realized that Bai Xingjian really had no rivals on Corea's side.

After discussing for a while, Ho Kwan-yu, who had been relatively silent, expressed her thoughts:

"Do you think the reason why Brother Xing Jian was attacked is because of us, the Galaxy Girls? After all, our development speed in Coria this year was too rapid, and it really took the spotlight."

Throughout 2025, with the support of Bai Xingjian's creative ability, Galaxy Girl won numerous awards in Koria.

They became the first Chinese girl group in the history of Corea to sweep all major awards.

It is normal for some people to be jealous.

Hearing what Ho Kwan Yu said, the other four girls from the Galaxy Girls almost opened their eyes wide.

You don’t know until you hear it, and once you hear it it seems to be true.

"If that's the case, then isn't it no coincidence that the movie All or Nothing has so many negative reviews?" Ho Kwan Yu continued to think. "Oh my god! That seems to be the real meaning!" Tang Tang jumped up from the sofa, and immediately felt that the Galaxy Girls had grasped the key point.

“That would make sense.”

Song Yuhan nodded heavily: "After all, our Galaxy Girls are now in the limelight in Coria, and no one can suppress us, so those people are planning to make a show of force, and they are planning to stigmatize and boycott Bai Xingjian, and then gradually spread this atmosphere to our Galaxy Girls."

"Oh my god! The person who planned all this behind the scenes is really insidious!"

Tang Tang tapped his head with his fingers, thinking: "So who do you think is behind all this? SX Entertainment? GYP Entertainment? Or JBG Entertainment?"

"It's hard to say, but before we discuss this, let's talk to Sister Shuyi about some of the ideas we just discussed. She should know a lot more about this than we do."

Shu Yaqian, the captain of the Galaxy Girls, spoke.

The other girls of Galaxy Girls nodded in agreement.

Then, not long after, their agent, Chen Shuyi, learned about the girls' thoughts.

Chen Shuyi looked at Shu Yaqian and the others with some surprise, and said in amazement: "You guys are quite smart. I didn't even think of this, but you did. And it makes a lot of sense."

"Great!" Chen Shuyi gave the girls a thumbs up.

"This point of view was proposed by Junru," Shu Yaqian added.

"Really?" Chen Shuyi's eyes lit up and she looked at Ho Kwan Yu.

Facing Chen Shuyi's gaze, Ho Kwan-yu quickly waved her hand and said, "I just got some inspiration from everyone's discussion. It's nothing."

"They are all humble and good kids." Chen Shuyi smiled.

"So Sister Shuyi, do you think this is the truth of the matter?" Tang Tang asked.

"It's almost certain." Chen Shuyi nodded.

"Then how should we deal with this?" Tang Tang continued to ask.

"How else can we deal with it? Use stillness to control movement, and use immobility to respond to ever-changing situations."

Chen Shuyi said readily, and then saw Wushuang's rather confused expression.

She laughed and explained, "Just do nothing."

"Huh? Why?"

"Aren't we very passive?"

"That's right, why should we just sit there and wait for death?"

The girls from Galaxy Girls asked in confusion.

Chen Shuyi glanced at the puzzled girls and explained to them slowly:

"Because the root cause of this matter seems to be due to us, the Xinghe Girls, which led to the current voices that are unfavorable to Bai Xingjian. However, the breaking point of this matter is not on our side, but on your brother Xingjian.

If his film "Squid Game" can convince audiences like Corea, then all these problems will be solved.

On the contrary, audiences like Corea will double their laughter at Bai Xingjian, and then we, the Galaxy Girls, will also be affected.

But if we speak out for Bai Xingjian now, what is the perspective? Our nationality is not Corea, and we can't eat Corea's food and then smear them, right?
Therefore, once we speak out and do anything about this, we will be met with even more fierce counterattacks from Corea netizens.

Standing aside is our only option now.”

After hearing this, the girls of Galaxy Girls were all stunned.

They didn't think so much at all.

"In that case, doesn't this matter have any solution at the moment?" After being surprised for a while, Song Yuhan asked.

Under the gaze of the girls, Chen Shuyi nodded, "For us Galaxy Girls, this is indeed an unsolvable problem, because the solution lies with Bai Xingjian. Wasn't the trigger for all this still the movie Squid Game he filmed? This has given some people with ulterior motives a breakthrough."

"So we can only hope that Brother Xing Jian's "Squid Game" can slap these people in the face?" Tang Tang asked.

"That's right!" Chen Shuyi nodded heavily.

……

The filming of "Squid Game" is in full swing.

In addition to supervising the filming process on site, Bai Xingjian also noticed the public opinion storm caused by "Squid Game" both at home and abroad.

"What's wrong with the netizens in Corea? Are they all so sensitive? I don't think I did anything?"

Seeing the comments directed at him by the Coria netizens, Bai Xingjian couldn't help but be amused. "Why do I feel like I stole something from them? I just borrowed some of their traditional culture. Is it necessary to be like this?"

"Who knows?"

Feng Shiqi couldn't help laughing, "But according to Sister Shuyi's analysis, it seems that the rapid development of the Galaxy Girls in Coria today has caused some dissatisfaction over there, so someone is deliberately pushing all this behind the scenes."

"Like this?"

Bai Xingjian nodded slightly, "That seems to make sense. After all, it is hard to justify a foreign group sweeping all the major awards in their own country."

"So do you plan to ask the Galaxy Girl to keep a low profile?" Feng Shiqi asked curiously.

"Why should they tone it down? Just let them keep going as they are."

Bai Xingjian grinned, "Since the Galaxy Girl has already caused dissatisfaction on the Coria side, I'll think of a win-win solution."

"Win-win? What kind of win-win method?" Feng Shiqi blinked and looked at Bai Xingjian intently.

"Galaxy Girl swept all the major music awards in Corea this year. So next year I will sweep all the major film and television awards in Corea with Squidward Games. Is this a win-win situation?"

Bai Xingjian said calmly: "Galaxy Girl won once, so naturally Phoenix Pictures must win again. Isn't this a win-win situation?"
