When chatting on WeChat, the dry text may not fully express your emotions. Grasping the psychological needs of young people, recently, WeChat updated a new set of emojis, which quickly became a hot topic. Many netizens said that the six new emojis added to WeChat are full of "spirituality", and they are simply hitting the soul. These 6 emoticons are, roll eyes, 666, let me take a look, sigh, bitterness, and crack. Among them, 666 was inspired by the live broadcast, let me take a look at the emoji from Erkang, and the split inspiration came from the scene where the mentality of Party B who served Party A collapsed.
Of course, after the release of these 6 emoticons, many netizens quickly defined their usage scenarios and meanings. "Rolling your eyes" means that you can't open your eyes, but you can continue; "666" means that you like what the other person said and suggestions made during the chat; "Let me take a look" means that one can't hold back "Sigh" means helplessness about something; "bitterness" means you are in dire straits; the expression of "split" means split personality, speechlessness and collapse.

The 6 emojis represent different moods at work, which can be used to tout each other in a group, or to complain to each other with colleagues.

For example, "laughing", "sucking your mouth" means happy, "smiling", "goodbye" means embarrassment rather than politely refuse to talk again; "eat melon", "make a fist" mean crowd watching melon, etc. Emoticons have their own meanings in young people’s dictionaries.
