Sina Entertainment Exclusive Dialogue – Wang Ziyi [Trans]

Hello viewers of Sina Entertainment, I am Wang Ziyi.

Q: It’s the last night. What’s your biggest feeling right now before you go on stage? WZY: Actually yesterday was the time when I was most nervous and when (my) feelings were most obvious. It’s about time to go on stage now, so maybe I’m overstrained. It’s because the last show is especially important to us, and we prepared a lot for it. There are two songs that will be performed on stage for the first time tonight, and a song that has not been released. So a lot of preparations were made for this stage and I can’t wait to go on stage.

Q: Did you meet your brothers for a while backstage just now? How is everyone’s condition today? What did you guys talk about? WZY: Some caught a cold, actually. These few days we’ve been practicing the whole day, and also because of the site sequence, many of them can only practice late at night. So actually everyone’s voice and body may be in a more exhausted condition. But I think everyone is still full of spirit, as it is the last show.

Q: In these 18 months of NINEPERCENT, what do you think is the most beautiful memory? What remains to be the most regretful? WZY: I think the most beautiful (memory) is each time when we stand on stage together, facing all our fans below the stage and introducing ourselves together “Hello everyone, we are NINEPERCENT”. And then going to each place together to meet different people, practicing together, preparing together, making the album together, recording together, writing songs together. I think it’s these things. Because art is what made us come together. Our feelings resonate the most when we are making art together, and it is the most unforgettable to me.

Q: Are there any regrets? WZY: Yes, actually there are a lot of regrets. Because when we debuted, we actually envisioned a lot and dreamed a lot. But there will be regrets in art. I think we shouldn’t stay in regret too much, and place all our energy and effort in the next step.

Q: We will truly be breaking away from NINEPERCENT very soon. Do you think this will have a big effect on you? WZY: Today is the day that we will really be separating, so actually it is still unknown whether there will be any effect. But I think in the first place, actually we have already predicted there will be this day and on a different note, perhaps it can be thought of as a new beginning. I hope everyone will become even better, definitely.

Q: On the night of the 6th, aside from you guys posting the Forever photo at the same time, what else did you guys talk about that night? WZY: We gathered together for a while, because we rarely get together to eat or chat. Usually it’s at the practice room, recording studio, on stage or at the event site. We didn’t think of anything that day, actually. The nine of us just sat together and had heart-to-heart talks, looking back on what we always wanted to say but didn’t say in these 18 months. It was quite unforgettable, I think.

Q: Do you think in these 18 months, your brothers have grown and are living better, or in this year all of you really experienced quite a lot of difficulties? WZY: Actually, difficulties are stepping stones for us to improve. Majority of these 18 months were actually difficult to us, and it felt like there was pressure every day. Every day was not relaxed, and we learned how to adjust, how to develop in this condition. So there were a lot of difficulties to us, but we also gained a lot.

Q: Actually at the beginning when you broke away from the competition, everyone definitely paid more attention to your popularity, and didn’t look at abilities or works. After leaving those few months, what do you think are the changes in the public’s perception towards you in those later months? Or what are the changes in terms of the areas they pay attention to? WZY: There will definitely be changes. At first, there’s suddenly a lot of attention. Be it to you as a person, or your shows which they like. But actually later on, it is more of digging deeper into you. It can be your skills, the way you conduct yourself, your personality, different sides of you. So I think that to us, it is also a new challenge. When people have higher expectations towards you, you will find that you need to run faster at that time, you need to learn more. I think this is good, because you won’t be able to see yourself clearer if you live forever surrounded by applause and flowers. We need to calm ourselves down, and think about how we actually are, and how to take the next step.

Q: What do you want to do next? What type of path do you want to go? WZY: Next, I hope I can steadily create my works step by step. Because I think the times won’t stop changing but works, good works are the only things that will not change. So to me right now, it’s also a rookie’s condition. NINEPERCENT just disbanded, so I hope I can fully immerse myself in my works. 

Q: In this year, what do you think is your best work or best result? On another hand, which areas or matters do you need to reflect on, or what areas need to be improved now? WZY: Every time when I am recording, I am filming or going on stage, I am especially unhappy every time I come down. I feel especially dissatisfied every time. There has never been once when I felt I was very satisfied. Every time, I will feel that I didn’t dance some of the moves well. If I rehearsed more, if I had a little more time it would be better. It is like this every time, there’s regrets every time. I am also slowly adjusting myself but I haven’t accepted it. I will never be able to compromise on this. Every day just feels like I am rushing for a flight. Perhaps others can reschedule if they missed the flight, but there is only one chance for us.

Q: Because the level of attention will be higher, so everyone will have higher expectations towards you. WZY: Expectations will be higher, that’s right.

Q: Are you worried about being replaced? As there are more and more idols in this market. WZY: I don’t think so. Every person in this world is an individual. Persevering in the things that one does, is what makes a person. I think replacement may be taken as just a sense of danger to oneself. This type of mentality is still needed, but I think there needs to be self-confidence too. Believe in yourself, and persevere in what you like, then you will never be replaced.

Q: If you can say something to NINEPERCENT graduand Wang Ziyi, what will you tell yourself? WZY: I am more thankful to the people and things we have encountered all this while, like my brothers, my ISEEs, NINEs, and the staff that are always by our side, and new friends I got to know in each show. I would like to thank them, as they are my biggest rewards in these 18 months.

Q: Lastly, is there a song or lyrics to express your feelings now to your brothers? You can sing a line. WZY: I will use my new song, then. The last line in my new song is particularly suitable. *singing* I seal this rare love, now and in future. I am sealing our memories, now and in future.

Q: I hope you will be even better as well. WZY: Thank you.

Sina Entertainment Exclusive Dialogue – Chen Linong [Trans]

Hello viewers of Sina Entertainment, I am NINEPERCENT’s Chen Linong 👋

Q: The final night has come at last. Please share how you feel. CLN: The feelings of the final night? I feel nervous, and also feeling a little like it’s a pity, a little reluctant. Because this is the last chance with NINEPERCENT, and to perform as NINEPERCENT for NINEs.

Q: Did you predict a little who will cry tonight? CLN: I think everyone will cry but actually I don’t want to. I don’t want to cry. Because I hope this can become a… The mentality I want to hold on to is a feeling of a glorious future. Although it may have ended in name, I don’t really wish for everyone to feel sorrowful, like ‘Wow, it has ended, everything is gone’. But actually it is not so, it is in our hearts. In future we will work even harder and meet a better version of each other again.

Q: But when all is said and done, the time limit has reached for this group. How do you view the relationship of NINEPERCENT to you? CLN: My relationship? After I graduated from IPD, it has been a powerful support all the way. Because we debuted from “Idol Producer”, and then we became NINEPERCENT, up to now when NINEPERCENT may be graduating. It is a bond to me.

Q: You said that NPC is a powerful support. In this case, are you a little worried about going on alone? Do you feel insecure or any other emotions? CLN: I don’t think so. Because we have said in private that even if we disband, we will still protect each other. If one is in trouble, eight will be there. We have already made this arrangement in private. Even though we have disbanded in name, privately we will still be very supportive of each other.

Q: I saw that all of you posted the same Polaroid on the 6th, which I felt was quite ceremonial. CLN: We were together at that time.

Q: Other than the group photo, were there any other ceremonial things which you or the members did? CLN: Raising our glasses (for a toast), yeah!

Q: Did any of the members thoughtfully give everyone little gifts or something like that? CLN: We were really too busy. On the day of disbandment, we had a hard time clearing away our work quickly, and then left a few hours for ourselves, the time that belonged to us as NINEPERCENT.

Q: The nine of you sat together at the table and bared your hearts, is it? CLN: Of course, that’s right.

Q: Actually, everyone said you guys debuted at a high position. But after these 18 months passed, do you feel a change in popularity from the outside world, and what are the changes from their level of attention to you? CLN: (I have) always been quite busy, still continuously doing all I can to do my job well (in terms of) music, and together with NINEPERCENT. I feel that I have never been idle and am still working hard all along.

Q: Do you think these efforts are noticed? I mean when you guys just debuted, everyone definitely felt like they only have popularity, and may care about this more. Do you feel that through 18 months of effort, the outside world may notice something different in you, and evaluate you differently? CLN: I think it is not something that can be proven with 18 months. I think this might need to take more time, an even longer time to establish your own position, and also work hard to create your own works. By making a stand with your works, I think this is what can make the audience happy.

Q: Through over a year of steeling yourself as an artist, do you have a clearer awareness on the path that you want to go? What is the kind of ‘Chen Linong’ you wish to become? CLN: There is a clearer awareness. Actually during the limited time as NINEPERCENT, although each of us had our own work, I believe after disbandment the direction of our work will be a clearer. All members of NINEPERCENT definitely have their own likes and preferences, and will develop with it. Things may be more different later on, so I think it is worth anticipating.

Q: Up till now, what fields are you more interested in? As you have tried many things. CLN: I think I am quite happy with the work I’m currently doing, and these things probably will continue in the future. For example movies, music, variety (shows), or even magazines. I think it is harder for artists to part with these things. No matter how much or how little you do, I think these will still be done. 

Q: Do you feel like you have a hold on certain domains in this year? CLN: It’s fair enough, I think. Because after all I have never been idle, so I think it’s improving.

Q: Thinking back on these 18 months, what is the best result or thing or job you think you have done? CLN: I think being NINEPERCENT is something (I am) proud of. After we became NINEPERCENT, each time we are together, or saying that you are NINEPERCENT when you’re outside, I feel I had nothing to fear at all times.

Q: Do you feel there’s a little bit of regret? CLN: I think there are definitely some regrets. Because even if you worked hard in that process, when it ends you still need to think if this part was done better, or if you persisted a bit more in this area, there could be different results. We’ll definitely have this. So you can only tell yourself, we still need to persist and carry on step by step in future. 

Q: Frankly speaking, what do you think is your most mature aspect or biggest growth this year? You might know yourself better CLN: I think all aspects need to be improved. Because once you step into show business, you will definitely improve in many different aspects. Your way of working in show business, or perhaps something you need to face, the societal responsibility that you will carry. It won’t be just in terms of performing, you will also improve spiritually.

Q: If you can say something to Chen Linong now, a sentence to NINEPERCENT graduand Chen Linong, what would you like to tell yourself? CLN: I think Chen Linong is doing well, and I hope he will do even better in future.

Q: If you can use your songs, or any lines from a song to give to the members- CLN: “Glorious Future”, this is too suitable. 

Q: Can you sing a line? CLN: *singing* Finally running towards that glorious future.

Q: So it’s a wish that no matter where your brothers are in future, they all have a- CLN: Glorious future.

Sina Entertainment Exclusive Dialogue – Xiaogui Wang Linkai [Trans]

Hello everyone, I am Xiaogui ✌ 

Q: As it is the last concert, how are you feeling now? XG: I’m a little nervous, and a little excited, and looking forward to it.

Q: Will you bet on who will crack and cry tonight? XG: I think most of us won’t be able to hold it in, because actually the mood has reached that point. I think it will be a very sad scene.

Q: I saw your preview (More Than Forever) two days ago. You were in the car saying “I feel regretful towards NPC, very regretful. I wanted to work harder but realized there was no time left”. What made you say it at that time? XG: Because after we became a group, the time that we truly spent together was actually very little. I wanted to be with my brothers. I especially missed the time when we were touring for fan-meetings, the feeling of that time and also the training. There weren’t many chances to gather together later on, so I felt it was a pity.

Q: Everyone seemed to have a feeling towards the group like “we can become the number one boy group”, but it seems like this advantage was not fully maximized. XG: Actually, being the number one boy group is not important. What’s most important is during the time we were a group, everyone grew and found their goals and direction. I think the most important thing is having a group of brothers like these by your side. And also the quiet support of our fans, I think this is most important. Being the number one boy group does not matter. 

Q: Particularly when the competition just ended, the attention from the outside world towards you guys may say it’s just popularity, only about things that are more superficial. When you just debuted, as you are also a newcomer, was there a process where you were a little confused or did not know which way to go? XG: At first, there will definitely be some dispute and public opinion. They will feel like… because actually they don’t know what kind of person you are. But I think all answers will be revealed in time, and NINEPERCENT will definitely become even better in future.

Q: As far as you are concerned, are you clear about your own path? Or was there a period when perhaps you felt the workload is a lot, asked ‘what am I doing’, or something like that? XG: Actually there are times when I was confused, when I encountered problems, when the pressure was huge. But I think this is a process that I must go through. Without experiencing this pressure, you won’t grow. So to me, I think this a way for you to grow, so going through this is inevitable. 

Q: For example, when you (encounter) some problems in your career, will you share it with these few brothers? Some of the troubles. XG: Yes, of course I will share it. But I know that even if everyone doesn’t say it out loud, we have definitely gone through a lot. We can sense it the next time we see each other, the look in our eyes is different. We can gradually sense the other person is becoming more and more mature. Maybe others have the same thoughts, which is the feeling that everyone has an indescribable mutual understanding. But we can feel one another slowly growing up.

Q: Regardless of how highly the outside world thinks of you guys, how do you guys perceive the outside world among yourselves? XG: To the outside world, I think it’s more of doing our own part well. I feel that NINEPERCENT is not a group which one can simply appraise or determine its nature. The group means a lot to me, it is not what it looks like on the surface. It has a lot of value and many important things. So its nature is not something that can be easily affected by a couple of sentences. 

Q: Out of good intentions from the outside world, probably when NINEPERCENT is brought up, most of the comments are regrets. But like what you said, do you feel that NINEPERCENT still left something for everyone? XG: We left precious memories and friendship. I think this friendship is more important. Actually for our age group, we have experienced things that perhaps children in the same age group as us have not gone through. So I think this is the most valuable fortune.

Q: I saw that all of you posted a Polaroid on the 6th, and felt that these boys had a sense of ceremony. Apart from this and the promise made among your team, did you show a sense of ceremony in other ways? XG: Actually, I won’t say that we had a sense of ceremony, but we really value our friendship. To express it in other ways, we’ll joke around but we absolutely won’t be sentimental. Even if we say our farewells in a joking manner, we won’t seriously and sentimentally say those kinds of words. We’ll do it our own way.

Q: That time when you guys were rehearsing in Beijing, how long has it been? (Since) Everyone was together? XG: A very long time, actually. It feels like….a few months? Anyway it was quite long.

Q: During the reunion, was there anything fun in the process of rehearsal? XG: Everyone is still mischievous like before. During rehearsal some are still playing around and not being serious, and then there are also times when they get serious. It feels like our understanding of each other is still there.

Q: I saw some posts online again today. There’s a lot of hardworking delivery guys sending takeout after takeout. How many things did you guys order at that time? XG: I was actually always in the process of practicing the dance. I keep going into the lounge and see another pile of takeout. I go into the lounge again and I will see another (takeout) again. But I don’t know who ordered it, specifically. Anyway there were quite a few meals, different kinds of dishes, hamburgers, everything was there. In the end we couldn’t finish it and felt it was quite a waste. 

Q: As you will really be saying farewell soon, what does NINEPERCENT mean to you? XG: As I mentioned, precious memories, precious experiences, friendship, the friendship between brothers, and the most valuable growth.

Q: Everyone felt that your workload was quite heavy this year. Do you feel that with the things you are doing, it is in the direction which you really want to advance? In our industry, there will definitely be a lot of things not within our control. XG: In terms of direction, I feel that I like my current identity. I also like what I’m doing now. I also like everything NINEPERCENT has for me. I feel honored with this identity, and also very thankful. To be able to work on the music I love, to make more people like me, I think this is enough. In future, I will use my own way to create a path that belongs to me.

Q: At the present stage, do you have any big confusion? XG: Actually I think there are still a lot of things (I am) lacking and I still need to continuously work hard to learn many things. I don’t consider myself as someone who is good at having a conversation with others, maybe because my personality is more direct. I think I need to make more effort to be considerate of others. I need to work on this, and also in terms of my music, including my stage, including all kinds of lighting and so on. Actually in terms of the stage, there are quite a lot of things lacking. I hope to work even harder, to have more time to film, such as some MVs will be good.

Q: On account of questioning by the outside world, everyone will think that idols have a very strong possibility of being replaced. Even in the market now, as you know, (idols) come in batches. Do you have any concerns on this? XG: I don’t mind whether I am replaced, because I am myself. There’s only a character that belongs to me, a personality of my own. He can take over your position, but he will never be able to take over your name is Xiaogui, that’s how I’ll put it. Which is why I feel Xiaogui is Xiaogui. Like I said, Xiaogui will use his own style to create a path of his own. So I’m not afraid of anyone replacing me.

Q: When you first debuted, everyone seemed to give you guys many titles, such as “redefining boy groups” or “opening up this generation”. After these 18 months, do you think the results produced lived up to the expectations and titles given to the group? XG: NINEPERCENT’s existence in itself is the best (result) in my heart.

Q:  What would you like to say to Xiaogui, the NINEPERCENT graduand? XG: Graduand Xiaogui, you will soon be wandering by yourself, running towards your goals, the true meaning of ‘go it alone’. I hope you won’t be afraid to face all the coming challenges and pressure. Be sure to cherish, be sure to remember all the friendship and all the precious memories left to you in these 18 months. These will spur you on to solve all the challenges in future. Remember the things that NINEPERCENT taught you and everything given to you. Be thankful to everyone.

Q: Lastly, whether using lyrics from your own songs or older songs, express your feelings towards your brothers. XG: *singing* “Let time return to that first moment, when I first stood on stage”. Let time return to that first moment, when we first stood on stage. I want to return to that time the most right now.

2019 Fresh Asia Music Awards x CLN Interview

The interviewer told CXK later on that CLN didn’t give away the secret. And he called NongNong ‘a good brother’. He had let NongNong listen to the song before, and he said ‘Wow, (the key is) so high!’

So Zhangjing posted a photo of him and Zhengting at the movies on Weibo story. He added a huge caption “I’m not the king of standing people up!!!” (This was probably in response to what ZZT & XG jokingly said in ‘More Than Forever’) Then minutes later, Xiaogui replied “Yes you definitely are~ and you guys! can’t believe you didn’t wait for me!” LMAOOO these boys  🤣 🤣 🤣

191012 NPC Zhangjing’s Speech [Trans]

Hello everyone, I am NINEPERCENT’s You Zhangjing. In these 18 months, I lived a life that I didn’t even dare to think of in the past. There are too many things that NINEPERCENT gave me. I think there’s so many to the point that it is not just something you guys can see. I think our understanding is particularly like that day when we were having a meal. Because we actually don’t talk much usually, yet we have the same feelings. I think this is what I especially like about you guys. I’m feeling especially reluctant to part today. I keep thinking of one song in my mind. “Let time return to that first moment, when I first stood on stage”. ‘Forever’, that’s why I came up with that post the other day. Let’s take this as a beautiful journey, because I really received a lot from all of you. When we attend the same event, as long as I see you guys there, I will feel especially secure, really. This is why I feel NINEPERCENT has given me too much, so much to the point that it changed every bit of my entire life. I cherish this very much, and I hope everyone can be even better. I really love you all.

191012 NPC Ziyi’s Speech [Trans]

These 18 months have been super happy. I’m someone who used to prefer being alone. After being with them, I became outgoing. I think there were quite a lot of happy things. Xiaogui plays around with me a lot, and I do the same to him too. Zhengting treats his friends really well. He will usually ask you out to sing or watch movies. Because he knows I’m someone who usually stays at home, so he tried to open me up. It helped me a lot. Justin, I remember that time we cooked together while filming, do you remember? There was one day you were writing a song and I was beside you, I still remember very clearly. NongNong, I remember when we just debuted and went to Los Angeles. We chatted and at that time we felt there was plenty of time, like there was still very, very long. But it wasn’t like we didn’t appreciate it at all. I went to the gym with you and you got hurt. And then Kun, he was a great help to me in the show. I think he sets an example for us, and is also a person who constantly worries about the team, it’s very tough. ChengCheng, I was especially touched when he gave me that T-shirt in ‘Flower Road’. Yanjun is actually pretty funny, and he usually likes to joke around with me. Often when we practice dancing, once he looks at me and I look at him, we will laugh. Both of us often laugh and joke around like this. His appearance is very cold, very cool, very calm. But actually he values relationships at heart. Zhangjing helped me a lot. I remember that you helped me for the first stage that was most difficult to me. And also NINEs, all of you are especially NICE. (LYJ: Must you rhyme at this time?) Thanks to you guys and all the staff, the people who have always been with us. Thank you, I’m really thankful. Thank you for accompanying us to graduate today.

To me, NINEPERCENT is... (FCC: How about this, let me add one sentence. When Lin Yanjun was eating together with us, did any of you ever see Lin Yanjun cry?) (ZZT: He really cried) (XG: I can be a witness, I can be a witness!) Nope, you saw wrongly. (ZZT: Nooo, you really cried. You were sitting beside me and I saw it!) To me, NINEPERCENT is a dream. (FCC: Hehe, it’s a four-sided stage, you can’t hide) It is a dream to me. I don’t dare to open my eyes because the light is too strong. Can the music stop for a while? (FCC: Don’t stop, don’t stop) Thank you for accompanying us to pursue this dream together. Everyone here should have their own dreams right? Thank you for willingly accompanying us to pursue our own dreams. We’ll also always accompany everyone to pursue their own dreams. We will always be by your side. Thank you.

191012 NPC Chengcheng’s Speech [Trans]

Hello everyone, I am NINEPERCENT’s Fan Chengcheng. I remember when I first entered Dachang, I was 17. Now I’m out and it feels like a spell. Justin was 15? 16? And now I’m already 19, oh my god. Time flew by quickly in a short while. I especially don’t want to cry today, not at all. Because whenever I cry, I’ll think of that side of me when I forgot the lyrics. (XG: The vegetables have been stolen!) (YZJ: It has been replanted~) So I especially don’t want to cry but I’ve held it in for so long, it’s very hard to keep it in. Just now below the stage, we were betting who will be the first to cry. I feel like I really have many things to say, there’s too many. Even if I chattered the whole day, I still can’t finish. I think this is the best graduation ceremony, no matter from elementary, middle or high school. Thanks to NINEPERCENT, thanks to all the fans that are here, thanks to all NINEs. And I also want to thank Idol Producer. I’m thankful to everyone, thank you.

191012 NPC Xukun’s Speech [Trans]

I have never been someone who is particularly good with goodbyes, so actually there are a lot of words pent up in my heart. In the days gone by, although the 9 of us actually spent more time apart than together, but when we had a meal together previously, we chatted a lot. I believe there will still be many opportunities like this in future. I also hope everyone won’t take today as an ending. This is a new beginning for all 9 of us. I think this is a very beautiful and wonderful memory, and we’ll carry this memory with us to keep going on. Above all, I’d like to thank everyone who is with us. I hope everyone will continue to support these 9 big boys after this, continue to support NINEPERCENT. Thank you.

191012 NPC Linong’s Speech [Trans]

Hi everyone, I am NINEPERCENT’s NongNong, Chen Linong. I think what Justin said is right. This is also how I think in my heart. Actually, I don’t really wish that our NINEPERCENT and all NINEs to feel like... NINEPERCENT has indeed ended in name, but our hearts are already linked together. We have a song called ‘Inseparable’ right? For such a long time after we finished recording ‘Inseparable’, I only truly understood the meaning of this song yesterday. From our days in Dachang until now, when NINEPERCENT’s time is up and we have to disband, but our hearts are already together long ago. I think this is the most important. I am also very thankful to my brothers, really thankful to you guys. We are the best, you guys (NINEs) are also the best!

191012 NPC Justin’s Speech [Trans]

Hi everyone, I am NINEPERCENT’s Justin. Today is our last concert. I’m actually not someone who gets sad. Whether during my debut or any time we were on stage, I have never cried. But yesterday during rehearsal, we rehearsed ‘Good Things’. After ‘Good Things’, we rehearsed ‘Inseparable’ and then the lights were completely gone. It was quite dark yesterday because there weren’t so many light boards in that environment. When the piano music of ‘Ei Ei’ started playing just now, suddenly there was an image in my mind -- all of us wearing the school uniform and coming out. At that moment I felt a bit sad and upset, I wondered if NINEPERCENT will end here. But actually on stage today, before the concert started I kept feeling that, I had a kind of bad feeling that I will cry today. But as we got closer to starting the concert, I felt more feelings of happiness. When I stood on the stage again with my brothers and danced to ‘Rulebreaker’ again when the music started, wow! I felt like I was full of energy. I think we are the best. Seeing so many people who support us, do you know that feeling of pride inside? I’m very proud that I’m a member of NINEPERCENT, really very proud. It gave me more energy. Actually, the end of NINEPERCENT is also the end of our Dachang. Everything from our IPD perhaps will end here. I think we represented all 101 individuals and we didn’t let you down. We gave our all and showed the best side of ourselves. In my heart, NINEPERCENT will never disband. No matter where we are next time, if I see my brothers elsewhere, I won’t say we are just colleagues. I’ll always think of you guys as my group members for life, and my brothers for life. In my heart, NINEPERCENT will never end.

191012 NPC Zhengting’s Speech [Trans]

Today is our last performance, the 9 of us. So I was very nervous, and wanted to perform very well. I wanted to leave a beautiful memory for everyone who came, including our brothers. But perhaps I wanted to do well too much, I was too nervous. I think I made a lot of mistakes today. First of all, I want to apologize to you guys (the members) and also to everyone who came. I’m really thankful that you all were always by my side during this period. Although there are a lot of times we have to work and leave hurriedly, but every time I message you guys, you will still reply. Few days ago, the (chat) group was especially lively. Contrarily as we are nearing the time of separation, the more I feel…including that night. Really, I’ve always felt we were pretty close, but I didn’t expect the 9 of us to have such a deep bond. All of us cried that night. I really, really can’t bear to part with you guys. But today, I want to tell all of you, thank you for leaving me with this memory, and thanks to everyone who came. Thank you for coming to support the 9 of us.

191012 NPC Xiaogui’s Speech [Trans]

I have never been as nervous as today, I’m too nervous. I think this moment is too important to me. Where should I start? NINEPERCENT is a very precious treasure to me. I really miss the time we were in America, in Los Angeles. We rehearsed together, played around, (and went to) Universal Studios. I also miss the time when we were in Shanghai. The first time the stage lift was rising, we were side by side like today. That trust and understanding with each other makes me feel like we are invincible. I think perhaps that moment is a team spirit. But now, we will be taking away the title of NINEPERCENT soon.  I don’t know what will happen after this. All of us will walk towards our own goals. But I hope, I truly hope that everyone in NINEPERCENT can be even better. We will definitely meet at the top. Brothers, it definitely won’t be too long. There’s something I really want to do. All this while, we bowed to our fans. Today, I want to bow to my 8 brothers. Thank you for everything you gave me. We are each other’s pride. I love you all forever. There are still a lot of things I want to say. But there really isn’t a way for me to say everything in one breath. If I changed a thousand words to one sentence, it will be “I love you all forever, my brothers, no matter when.”
