It is not as simple as imagined for singers to release albums, and all kinds of expenses are added together, and the capital investment for an album is at least 300 million won. And this is an upfront investment, and you don't know if this album will make you pay back after you put it in. Of course, there are many small agencies in South Korea that are ambitious to invest money in their idols to release albums. If one doesn't work, come to the second one, the third one, and if it still doesn't get better, then the rest is debt bankruptcy.

It is not uncommon for such small brokerage companies to fail and go bankrupt in South Korea. Of course, there are many successful companies, and the three major idol agencies in South Korea are YG, S.M, and JYP. They were also gambling at the beginning, and they succeeded for so long, and if they failed, they were at most bankrupt and started over.

After Korean dramas are popular throughout Asia, and the actors' salaries have been regulated, the most profitable thing in the Korean entertainment industry is idol. A successful idol group can create tens of billions of profits in a year, which is many times more expensive than the actors. The most critical point is that the idol's share is less than that of the actors.

That's why people with a little bit of money want to open a brokerage company. However, the Xinsha Cave Tiger is a typical example. After a songwriter wrote a few popular songs and earned hundreds of millions of copyright fees, he felt that the money was quite easy to make. I can write songs for others, why don't I form my own girl group?

But he didn't know until he opened a brokerage company. It's not as simple as I imagined, and the songs I think are good are on the market, but no one buys them. Then it goes into a circular losing cycle. The first time I failed, I thought that I would earn it back the second time, but I lost my money for a few years, and I still owed a lot of debt to the bank. Only then did he realize that the brokerage company is not so easy to run, and the girl group is not so easy to build.

In the end, I had no choice but to wait for the end of the artist's contract in my hand and part ways.

However, EXID has become one of the countless failed girl groups. If you want to say that the most bumpy thing is Xu Shuzhi. has been a failure since 2NB, and once she released an album, she failed once, and in her own words, she has also obtained a settlement income of '300,000' over the years.

The dream was about to be shattered, because the contract period with the Xinsha Cave Tiger was about to end, and at that time they themselves knew that it was impossible to renew the contract. When she really didn't know whether she should continue on this path, CJE&M's chairman Lee Woo-ho held out his hand to them.

And the songs created by Li Yuhao have been occupying the top three on the download list since February, and she was really looking forward to it after receiving the news.

Lee Woo-ho has super creative strength, and he also has a super background in CJ Entertainment. This is a dream for all of them at EXID. But after joining CJ Entertainment, Lee Woo-ho put them in the company and paid them some living expenses every month, which is equivalent to saying that CJ Entertainment's good things such as eating and living and pocket money fell on their heads. Xu Shuzhi was originally a little moved.

And after joining CJ Entertainment for two months, Lee Woo-ho, the president of the conference, greeted them for a while, from the living situation, to the accommodation conditions, and even said sorry for not taking care of them.

You must know that Lee Woo-ho is the chairman in charge of CJ Entertainment, he has such a 'noble' identity, but he puts his mentality very peaceful and very nice. This made Xu Shuzhi, who was sitting next to him, have a very strong feeling of being cared for.

This made her very moved, really moved, who had experienced the warmth and coldness of the world. She felt that she could no longer find it, and she listened carefully to what Li Yuhao said with gratitude.

Li Yuhao even told them his plans and arrangements for their group, according to any common sense, Li Yuhao is not the chairman of a brokerage company, he is the chairman of an entertainment group company, even if it is a top idol group, how much can they earn with a movie and TV station? So Xu Shuzhi felt that Li Yuhao didn't need to explain anything to them at all, and he didn't need to bother too much about them.

Because that's what it takes for granted, but Li Yuhao didn't do that, he was very kind, as if he treated them as sisters and took care of them. How could such a caring president not let Xu Shuzhi be moved and grateful.

The so-called 'death for the confidant', Li Yuhao sent charcoal in the snow at their most critical moment, and took care of their lives carefully and warmly. At this time, Xu Shuzhi secretly swore in his heart that he would never leave CJ Entertainment in this life and this life, and would not forget to repay Li Yuhao for his kindness to them and his kindness. However, Li Yuhao didn't know what Xu Shuzhi was thinking.

Because he clearly knows their future, he will take care of them so carefully at this time. Of course, Li Yuhao is just making an upfront investment. As everyone knows, his early investment was sworn allegiance to EXID

Arriving at the supermarket, Li Yuhao brought a baseball cap and Xu Shuzhi into the hypermarket. There was a burst of creamy smell coming from the bakery at the entrance of the supermarket, Xu Shuzhi couldn't help but glance over there and swallowed a mouthful of saliva slightly, they haven't eaten after the class today, if she doesn't smell this tempting fragrance, she thinks she can bear it. But there's a bakery right in here.

Li Yuhao looked at Xu Shuzhi's appearance and smiled, "Go buy a loaf of bread and pad your stomach a little." Li Yuhao took out his wallet, took out a 10,000 yuan note from it and gave it to Xu Shuzhi.

"Ah, thank you, Chairman Lee. The main thing is that the bread tastes too good, Chief, will you eat it?"

"No, I came over after lunch. By the way, you can call the members and ask the members, is there anything else you need to bring back besides the fans?"

"Well, we've got your phone number. ”

"yes, forget jì you don't have a phone. Go buy bread first, I'll be waiting for you here. ”

Xu Shuzhi went to buy bread, and Li Yuhao stood there thinking about whether it was a bit too much to confiscate their phones? They were not trainees, nor children, and they were all adults in the group, and they could distinguish the severity of the situation. They know when to play and when to study seriously.

Lee Woo-ho's confiscation of their phones was an imitation of FNC's approach. However, FNC's confiscation of the phone is only for the trainees and the period of their debut, because it is hoped that every trainee will devote themselves to practice or work, rather than enjoying the ignorant love of youth.

And Li Yuhao received EXID's call, and now Li Yuhao looks back on it as if he did something wrong. They have experienced ups and downs in the circle for about two years, and they have seen a lot of problems clearly, even if they have a phone, Li Yuhao believes that they can't use it to fall in love with people in the circle or anything, at most contact with their families. As for friends, they may have rarely been in touch since their debut. In addition, they failed to be singers, and people who are not particularly good will hardly be contacted.

Li Yuhao thought that they didn't have a phone now, and it became a little difficult to even contact each other. He began to wonder if he was going to give them the phone back.

Xu Shuzhi also bought bread at this time, she walked over with a happy smile with bread in her hand, and she returned the change to Li Yuhao, "Thank you, president." ”

"You're welcome, let's go, let's go see the fan first. ”

The two came to the fan area and looked at various types of fans. Li Yuhao asked Xu Shuzhi when he picked the fan, "Xu Shuzhi xi, did your agent sue you, how many bedrooms do you have after moving to the new dormitory?"

"Five, just one of us in one room. ”

"Eh, a five-bedroom apartment?" Li Yuhao couldn't imagine in his mind what kind of apartment would have five bedrooms.

"Not really. There are two sets on the left and right, and we are divided into two groups, with three bedrooms on one side and two bedrooms on the other. We haven't decided who will live with whom, so we said we'll talk about it later. ”

"Oh, well, I thought there really was a five-bedroom apartment, so let's buy five of the same fans, one for each room, and I won't treat anyone badly. Li Yuhao decided to buy five fans of the same model, so that they would not say that they were treated differently in their hearts.

Li Yuhao

Li Yuhao asked for five in one breath, which made the shopping guide stunned for a moment, "Five?"

"Well, five to be the same. ”

Ten minutes later, Li Yuhao and Xu Shuzhi were pushing two shopping carts, and the cars were full of fans. Now the two of them have become the objects of others' fingering, I don't know that I think Li Yuhao bought it for business, who has nothing to buy five fans at home? And it's all the same one, the same box.

Li Yuhao didn't care about these eyes at all, and the two of them strolled through the supermarket with a cart, "Xu Shuzhi xi, do you want to buy some snacks or something? ”

The two began to shop in the snack area again, and finally Li Yuhao bought them a box of pork ribs and a box of A++ grade Korean beef.

On the way back to the dormitory, Xu Shuzhi couldn't help but pout when she looked at the large bags of snacks on the back seat, as well as the fans, and the gift meat. A trip to the supermarket cost nearly 1 million.
