In May, the wave created by "The King's Man", although it has declined since the number of moviegoers exceeded 12 million, still dominates the topic in most areas, especially the Internet.

Kong Ji's subversive screen image, the whole of South Korea is blowing a neutral wind, the neutral beauty that was ignored in the past, and it became fashionable for a while after "Wang Nan" became popular, the term "beautiful man" used to be just a colloquial name for people with feminine faces on the Internet, but at the beginning of 06, it also began to frequently appear in the mouths of serious anchors in traditional media. And after J.H released the DVD of "Wang Nan", this trend spread to neighboring countries at a faster speed.

Thanks to the speed of the spread of Internet terror, not long after the DVD was launched, pirated film sources had already appeared on the Internet in Southeast Asian countries and China, and then soon, the relevant Korean drama Korean film subtitle group produced subtitles and put the suppressed film sources on the Internet.

In this case, the J.H publicity department, which pays close attention to the word-of-mouth reflection of the movie on the Internet in neighboring countries, is really a little laughable, and piracy naturally damages J.H's interests, but it also successfully promotes the company's products overseas in an irreplaceable way.

At present, there are still some countries that have not purchased the overseas screening rights of "Wang Nan", several major regions including Chinese mainland, Hong Kong and Taiwan, Japan, Singapore, Malaysia, etc., in addition to Sony, which has already intended to buy, more distributors are hesitant to independently assume the introduction risk of "Wang Nan", and they prefer to cooperate with both parties.

In this case, the performance of "Wang Nan" in the piracy market in the future may help them make up their minds.

How does "Wang Nan" perform in other countries. Whether it can reproduce the firestorm situation of South Korea's domination of the world remains to be further fermented by the Internet for the time being, and in South Korea, one of the topics extended by "Wang Nan", J.H Company, and Ahn Junhyuk himself, once again sparked heated discussions in the Korean entertainment industry when they first entered May.

This time, J.H. was a little crazy in the eyes of the people, although his statement was as formulaic as ever. It can even be said to be bland and tasteless:

"J.H was founded under the leadership of President Ahn Joon-hyuk. It is the diversified development of the entertainment industry, we are both a production company and a brokerage business, and the good performance of "The King's Man" has provided a strong impetus for the company. It has also increased the company's investment in brokerage business. The company's management has recently negotiated with Ms. Lin Xiujing about her entry into J.H in the third quarter. According to the exact information obtained by our agency after contacting Ms. Lin Xiujing. Ms. Lin Xiujing has not agreed in writing or verbally to appear in IHQ's new film plan, here, our agency hopes that I Agency will retract the news information related to Ms. Lin Xiujing previously released. Otherwise, we will obtain Ms. Lin's authorization to initiate a lawsuit against the compulsive brokerage behavior of I Company......"

This statement, which was published on J.H's official website and promoted to various newspapers and portals at the same time, shocked the eyeballs of the circle.

Just three days ago, SKT just announced the completion of the strategic deployment of its entertainment industry, relevant experts said that SKT's next focus on stabilizing the market, will be from the simple technical progress, greater investment in value-added services, because it is different from KTF in the field of communications, KTF's parent company KT Group is the largest fixed network operator in China, they have a large number of fixed line and broadband users, this part of the user to their mobile network services provide a strong customer stickiness.

With the support of KT Group, the price advantage of bundling integration from fixed telephone, broadband to mobile communication has greatly enhanced the competitiveness of KTF, which is difficult for SKT to threaten, especially in terms of technical support, SKT has been lagging behind half a step. Although SKT tried to cooperate with hanaro, the second-largest fixed-line operator, last year, hanaro is essentially a foreign-owned company, and its controlling party is AIG, which makes the cooperation between the two sides unstable, and it may be sold when AIG thinks that hanaro's market value meets expectations.

A collaborator whose future fate is uncertain is clearly not able to provide decisive assistance.

For the time being, if you want to stabilize the market, it is an inevitable choice for SKT to turn the focus of development to the multiplication business - this can be accurately concluded from a data, SKT2005 annual sales in the field of wireless Internet are 2.6 billion US dollars, of which 30% are created by value-added business - and the entertainment industry, as the top priority of SKT's value-added business, naturally cannot afford to miss a little.

The six-month-long decision-making disagreement within IHQ, and even the eventual split into two divisions, SidusHQ and SidusFHN, shows SKT's determination to integrate the entertainment industry chain as soon as possible – for which they would rather expose the disagreement with the management.

As the first product to be launched after the split of IHQ, inviting Park Chan-wook and Rain, the star of JYP, another company under SKT, to join us can also reflect SKT's ambition and hope to expand the industrial structure.

Just as SKT is not satisfied with the narrow Internet market in South Korea and has always wanted to expand its business overseas, SKT will not be satisfied with its own market share since it is involved in entertainment.

At present, it is close to monopoly in the field of digital music by bundling the Melon music application in the cooperative terminal, so how can there be exceptions in other directions?

Yesterday, an expert from the LG Economic Research Institute published an article saying that SK's entry into entertainment may change the pattern of the entertainment industry in the future, just like the impact of hanaro's fate on the Korean telecommunications market, and form a hidden monopoly of large conglomerates controlling the entertainment industry (the current Korean entertainment market has indeed become a hidden monopoly, and the limited share is in the hands of several giants under the control of the consortium, and these giants will further control the downstream industrial chain by injecting capital and holding shares, establishing joint ventures, etc.).

Under such a premise, J.H suddenly appeared this time, and clearly pointed the finger at SidusHQ, and even called it the old name before the split, which seemed too bold.

The editorial offices of various media outlets first saw J.H's statement. I almost thought I was hallucinating.

Ahn Joon-hyuk is crazy?

……

……

"Now, I don't know how many people in Lu Dao are scolding you for being crazy!"

J.H Company, looking away from the computer screen in front of him, Kwon Bo Gen looked at the floor-to-ceiling window, turned his back to An Junhyuk with a cup of coffee, and said with a wry smile: "If it weren't for the relationship between you and Lin Xiujing, I'm afraid I would have said that you are crazy......" He shook his head, turned off the computer, came to An Junhyuk's side, and silently looked at the earth outside shrouded in the blazing sun. Everything is dazzlingly white.

"What's next?"

"Wait for SidusHQ's reaction!"

"That's not a good idea. You and I both know how it will react. Even if you don't mention IHQ, the Entertainers Association is also in trouble, according to the industry standards determined by the Ministry of Culture and Tourism and LG and Samsung in the early years, there is a dispute over artist management affairs. The Entertainers Guild is qualified to step in. Lin Xiujing's contract with SidusHQ is not over yet. It is clearly stipulated that we cannot contact her rashly, and we will ignore this aspect, even if you do sue her. The end result may also be that neither of us nor SidusHQ can sign her, and maybe she will be applied by the Entertainers Association!"

Hearing this, Ahn Jun-hyuk was silent for a moment.

In the Korean entertainment industry, the rules left over from the consortium's march into Chungmuro are shackles on the heads of every artist.

The Performing Artists Association is the largest of the shackles, which stipulates that artists and the agency shall not resist the reasonable conditions of the agency in any way during the contract, especially the event of job hopping, which may cause vicious competition. In order to prevent companies with strong capital from wantonly disrupting the market, the Performing Artists Association restricts artists from accepting contract offers from other companies during the contract period, even if the company is willing to pay liquidated damages, the association will not allow it to obtain the artist's signing rights before the expiration of the period, and if the incident involves a wide range of events, the association even has the right to block the brokerage company.

This is also the main factor that has always been the main factor in South Korea, even if the big-name stars have basically not changed jobs halfway, not because they can't afford to pay liquidated damages, but because this shackle firmly controls the artist's right to choose.

In fact, the original intention of the original formulation was nothing more than the industrialization of entertainment, the transition from the era of artists to the era of brokerage, and the inevitable means for brokerage companies to increase their right to speak.

It is also this shackle that makes Ahn Junhyuk, even if he has strong funds in his hands, never thought of paying liquidated damages for Lin Xiujing and signing her into J.H in advance.

Because it is likely to be self-defeating, it is far better than the expiration of the contract, so everyone should gather and disperse to avoid extraneous branches.

It's just that he didn't expect that SidusHQ would suddenly announce that Lin Xiujing, whose contract is about to expire, will play the heroine of the new film, and he didn't expect that JYP and SidusHQ would become a "family".

Whether it is his position or Lin Xiujing's position, it is simply impossible to cooperate with Rain!

After a moment, he smiled bitterly: "This is no way...... I know what you want to say, yes, if I don't intervene and only let Xiujing come forward to negotiate with SidusHQ alone, things will be much simpler, after all, Xiujing did not sign a written agreement to appear in the new film, which means that there is room for change, no matter how much trouble the artist and the agency make, it is only an internal matter between the two parties, and the Artists Association will not care, as soon as I let J.H intervene, the nature of the whole thing will change, but ......"

He shrugged and shook his head slightly.

It's one thing to think rationally, it's another thing to do it concretely, he can't watch Xiujing fight against SidusHQ alone, he is her boyfriend, his man, maybe her husband in the future, he can't watch her take on everything alone in the name of reason.

You must know that Lin Xiujing's agent has verbally agreed to SidusHQ's arrangement on her behalf, and in SidusHQ's opinion, it is Lin Xiujing herself who agreed.

If SidusHQ makes this detail public during the stalemate, it may completely ruin her by the pressure of public opinion created by the media.

In contrast, it is better for him to be this "wicked man"!(To be continued......
