Chapter 434: Rent

I flew nearly 12 hours to Los Angeles, it was morning to fly from Japan, and it was still morning when I arrived in Los Angeles!

Fly back to Seoul for another 14 hours, departing from Los Angeles at night, and arriving in South Korea at night. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Li Menglong is not the kind of person who recognises money, for a good state, he directly booked the first class, but he couldn't stand flying back and forth like this, and after landing, he had to devote himself to a new round of brainstorming with a clear mind.

Fortunately, there was enough time on the plane, Dad Li's analysis was in place, coupled with his own spirituality, the context of the whole thing has been clear, what Li Menglong needs now is to persuade one person after another with various interests and prospects.

At ten o'clock at night in Seoul, it was the time for people to relax after a busy day, and Li Menglong went into a tavern according to the address, but fortunately, the people he still had to meet were not too famous celebrity faces, and no one came to say hello.

It's the first time I've seen this Li Menglong on the other side, although it's a very close relative, but I didn't even say that I was looking for this when Li Shungui was so difficult, and Li Menglong naturally never thought about it.

However, as his own brother, Li's father still knows his brother, so he has the current meeting under his matchmaking: "Hello, Li Xiuman's senior, I am Li Menglong!"

"Sit down, just call your uncle together, it's all your own people!" The other party seemed to be a little old man, smiling with glasses, and he didn't see any domineering at all.

However, Li Menglong has heard a lot about this person's methods, and this person's prestige is based on the bones of his opponents and his own artists, after all, he was not joking when he created S*M, the first entertainment company, with his bare hands.

If these don't say anything, then Lee Soon-gyu has done so many excessive things, and Kim Young-min and Park Xiangmin can endure it all the time, just because of this old man, this old man who has left s*m self-cultivation!

Although he is not in S*M, he has never taken care of Lee Soon-gyu head-on. It's not that he, Lee so-man, is too cold-blooded, but it's not necessary! In the s*m and even the entertainment industry, as long as you know that Lee Soon-gyu is his Lee so-man's niece, it's enough, who dares to do more? Or if you want to do something, you can try it! At least so far, no one has dared to try!

"That SW is all what you got it, your vision is very good!" Li Xiuman took Li Menglong's full wine glass and took a sip.

"It's all everyone's effort, I didn't do anything!"

"Men don't be too modest, be domineering! How can you say that you are also a person representing a company!" Li Xiuman seemed to be reminiscing about the past when he spoke, and the occasional hint of grandeur was enough to make Li Menglong look at this little old man.

"I take the liberty of asking, do the two of us need to talk about the girls today?"

"Anyway, it's my niece, and I still have a lot of shares in S*M!"

This is the end of the topic, Li Menglong is sure that the other party has understood what he means, because Li Xiuman clearly told him that he still has the ability to influence S*M and has the intention to do it.

It's just that the reason is for the so-called niece? If Li Menglong believes it, it will be hell, whether it is Father Li, Li Shungui or even his own cognition, they all know that Li Xiuman is not this kind of person.

I feel that Li Xiuman is a person who separates his personal feelings from work, and for idols in private, he can be the father of idols, please eat and give pocket money, but once it comes to work and betrayal, he will let idols know what life is better than death!

Although it seems to be a little contradictory and even cold-blooded, Li Menglong still appreciates it, at least he is simple, like now he won't take anything about family affection at all, Li Xiuman doesn't care, and Li Menglong cares too much.

So what can be talked about is interests, and the best embodiment of interests is money!

"You mean you want to use money to buy Girls' Generation? I won't say if you have that much money, even if Girls' Generation died in s*m, at least for now, you can't sell it, because it's face!" Lee so-man was much more decisive than Kim Young-min, and directly rejected the proposal.

It seemed that the topic was about to reach an impasse, and Li Menglong spoke again: "If you can't buy it, then I can't rent it?"

"Rent, rent Girls' Generation?" Li Xiuman laughed directly: "Do you rent for a day or a month?"

"I respect you very much, because you used to have a respectable resume! But please respect me a little, because your current resume is not bad, is it? At least I'm not a fool to talk about!" Li Menglong handed the other party another glass of wine and ate a bite of barbecue.

Looking at Li Xiuman, who was deep in thought, Li Menglong had to say that the other party was a smart person, first directly facing the threat of his junior, and then he could quickly discover the shining point of Li Menglong's suggestion.

Aside from the rest, why is S*M unwilling or unable to sell Girls' Generation? The ostensible reason is that the girls after the renewal of the contract not only have to occupy a lot of the company's resources, but also make more money for the company than the newcomer group.

The fundamental reason is the unique influence of the girls, as a cross-era girl group, they have represented the face of s*m to a certain extent, and even painted an equal sign.

A person may consider selling a kidney, selling a liver, someone will sell a head?

Leaving Girls' Generation's S*M, if nothing else, a single plunge in stock prices is enough for them to bear.

But in the past, HOT, TVXQ, and SJ were the same fire, why could they be disbanded? because there are successors, such as SJ, who are now abandoned because EXO is about to take the throne.

But S*M's girl group is embarrassed, a FX fell over there, and I couldn't even touch the corner of the girl's generation skirt to talk about any substitution, and as for the launch of the newcomer group, it would be a few years later.

So now s*m is also very difficult, it is not good not to renew the contract of Girls' Generation, and renewing the contract will affect his own metabolism, which is also the reason why Kim Young-min is undecided, but Lee so-man made it clear that he could not terminate the contract.

But what about renting?

"Tell me more!"

"There's nothing to say.,Rent.,As the name suggests, I pay for it.,Rent everything from the girls! Girls' Generation is still yours.,But I'm responsible for everything during the lease period.。 Li Menglong knocked on the table: "You have money to take and free up resources, the key is that the girls are still your artists, I am simply a living Lei Feng!"

Li Xiuman slapped his face gently, he himself appreciated Li Menglong's genius idea, but there was still a lot to consider, because Li Menglong had suffered a big loss so far.

He Li Xiuman has seen many people, but he has never seen a person who suffers from losses. So he wants to see what Li Menglong is for, don't say what feelings it is for, he doesn't believe it.

Li Menglong sat there peacefully, he should eat and drink, this conversation at least so far he has the upper hand, because the topics are all guided by him, Li Xiuman is thinking passively, and even Li Menglong can guess what the other party wants to ask next.

"Of course, S*M has to pay a little, otherwise I will suffer too much, of course, it is also a matter of mutual benefit!" Li Menglong said some of his requirements, the core meaning is that Li Menglong values S*M's overseas channels.

Whether it is a TV series, a movie or even a song, he Li Menglong can still find a way in South Korea, but for the whole of Asia, he and his SW are small and pitiful, and it took S*M how many years to lay a channel that radiates the whole of Asia, even North America.

In this way, Li Xiuman feels fairer, because this was all made when he was in power, and to put it mildly, the channel is the king, otherwise even if the Girls' Generation has an album, it can't be sold in Japan and China, and the concert can only be held in South Korea, so there is still a fart, there is no money to be made in such a small market in South Korea.

So now the balance is somewhat balanced, Li Menglong spends money to rent everything from the girls, and S*M has to pay for channels other than South Korea, does S*M suffer?

Of course not, if you don't count Girls' Generation, the business of various departments of S*M overseas can be at least half, and the key is that S*M has no one to use, because it is not famous enough, so it can be said that it can be used as waste.

And Li Menglong's appeal, in Li Xiuman's eyes, is naturally to make money, otherwise? This process is a bit of a subcontract, although the money that can be made in Girls' Generation looks a little small on Li Xiuman's side, but it is also a huge amount of money to outsiders.

What makes Li Xiuman even more excited is that once this model can be operated well, it is a good way to solve the surplus of his own stars, and the final positioning of S*M is a star factory, always enjoying the highest profits, he Li Xiuman is moved.

It's just that there is still an essential problem now, Li Xiuman can't represent s*m.

"This is my problem, you don't have to worry, as long as the two of us talk about it, it will be equivalent to talking to S*M!" Li Xiuman straightened up when he spoke, making people see that he was still the Li Xiuman who held the power in his hands.

Sending Li Xiuman away, Li Menglong staggered directly on the floor of the barbecue restaurant, it was really tiring to talk to the other party, and the details could not be compromised, Li Menglong seemed to have an electric drill drilling in his head.

But at least the result was okay, but the time left for him was a little urgent, so Li Menglong could only make a large handful of snow outside the door and rub it on his face and forehead, until it turned into snow before rushing to the next location.

"What are you doing here at this time?" The proprietress is checking the accounts today, so midnight is the time to be free, and it is also suitable for this work, and it is really a little surprised to see Li Menglong, who is a little embarrassed.

"Do you believe me when I say I'm hungry, come over for dinner?"

"What do you say? My fried chicken isn't so delicious that you should fly back from Japan, especially in the middle of the night, right?"

"Then I said I miss you, isn't it more fake?" Li Menglong took two steps back after speaking, and let the boss slap him, and then stretched out against the glass window. (To be continued.) )
