Now, lets run and login to the application again, open Chrome Developer Console (or similar tools in other browsers) and write the following command:
This command performs an AJAX call to PersonAppService.GetPeople method. We can see the request if we open Network tab:
As we see, an AJAX request made and people are got successfully.
So, how this happen? How we could make a call to a C# class method (notice that it's not an MVC Controller, just a plain C# class) from javascript like calling a javascript method?

We can also check Audit Logs to see the request. Open AbpAuditLogs table in PhoneBook database to see the call information:
There are some other fields not shown here. So, we see that User with Id=2 called GetPeople method of the PersonAppService in recorded time with the shown parameters and it's executed in 134 ms.
