The Spring Festival has just passed, and another news has been released on the official website of LOEN.

Cheon Myung-hoon's MV single "Sister is My Woman" will be released on February 14, and I hope fans will support it.

February 14 is not only Valentine's Day, but also Cheon Myung-hoon's birthday. It really makes sense to choose a date like this to release the song.

"Snow Flower" is Cheon Myung-hoon's first work. But because it's an OST and not a single, it doesn't stand to reason that it can't be counted as an official debut.

But it's been two months since Cheon Myung-hoon's first stage, if this OST doesn't count, wouldn't it be possible to make a variety show debut?

"Sister is My Woman" is the first MV single after Qian Mingxun signed with a brokerage company, and the new artist director is experienced. originally planned to simply and rudely finalize the official debut time, and throw all the remaining entanglements to fans.

But Cheon Myung-hoon didn't want to, he didn't want the debut song on the official profile to be this song. I was already awkward about the content of the lyrics.,If it's always turned out in the future.。 Especially when performing a debut song on a variety show, it will simply cause endless trouble.

And Yuna is still obsessed with this, isn't it the biggest bane that affects the relationship?

No, no, Qian Mingxun resolutely disagreed.

His insistence did pose a small problem for LOEN's artist director.

In the end, the compromise was that Cheon Myung-hoon recorded Snowflake again and re-released it as a single. In this way, it is not just OST, it can be counted as a singer's debut.

But in the official information, the official debut time is still February 14. It's just that the debut song is written "Snow Flower".

This has led to controversy among new fans in the future, which often leads to discussions. In the end, it was the old man who came out to explain the past of the year, so that everyone could calm down for a while.

——

"You said he didn't want to participate in the singing stage?"

The temporary agent understands the feelings of the other person on the other side of the phone. Because when Cheon Myung-hoon told him about it, his reaction wasn't much better.

"What is the reason?"

After Kim Jong-ri said this, he took a deep breath and calmed his emotions.

"Isn't it that I won't release an album this time? If there is no sales result, it seems that I will not be able to win a song. ”

The explanation given by the broker was rather hesitant.

"If you can't get one......, you won't play songs?

Kim Jong-ri's later words still didn't come out. Over the years, he has operated many artists, and he has never heard such a reason.

In fact, this is the result of the broker's own processing. Qian Mingxun only said that it didn't mean anything to play a song, and he didn't explain much at all.

In short, the core idea is three words: I don't want to go.

What does it mean to not have a meaning?

The agent struggled for a long time, and finally came up with this reason. Although it was a bit far-fetched, he really couldn't think of a more reasonable explanation.

But what the broker didn't know was that it was also Cheon Myung-hoon's decision not to sell the entity. So this reason is completely unacceptable to Kim Jong-ri.

"You do his job again, and I'll contact you later." ”

"Okay. ”

Hanging up the phone, Kim Jong-ri massaged his temples with his hands for a while. Although he was mentally prepared. But I didn't expect the headache to come so quickly.

After being transferred to LOEN as an artist director, Kim Jong-ri found that there were few artists under the company, and they were not too good. The only one who keeps him motivated to work is Cheon Myung-hoon.

Although he is a newcomer who has just debuted, he is already the momentum of a top singer. Running such an artist from scratch, Kim Jong-ri felt that this would be the proudest work of his career.

Everything is difficult at the beginning, and the singer's work itself is crucial. But the teacher Li Xianji has already prepared such a song, and there is no need for Kim Jong-ri to worry about it in the short term!

The song "Sister is My Woman" is impeccable in terms of attention and topicality. As the title song, Kim Jong-ri feels that it is already perfect.

As soon as he took office, he picked up a ready-made bargain, and Kim Jong-ri was a little unpleasant. He made up his mind that he would show his strength next and reflect his value as an artist director.

What he never thought was that Cheon Myung-hoon did not plan to continue to collect songs to create a regular album, but to let this song exist in the form of a digital single.

The concept of digital singles has just emerged with the development of the Internet. In Kim Jong-ri's preconceived notion, albums are still the only royal road.

Let's not forget that LOEN was formerly known as Seoul Records, which is a distribution company in its own right. With the company's industrial line, making a single album couldn't be easier. Cost control and sales channels are guaranteed, and a considerable amount of revenue can be created.

Kim Jong-ri didn't bother to say anything, but Cheon Myung-hoon still refused to release an album!

He knew that the identity of the eldest young master in front of him was not ordinary, and he couldn't force it if he didn't want to. If Cheon Myung-hoon said that he wanted to skip a grade and planned to focus on his studies, then Kim Jong-ri would not mention it again. But Qian Mingxun told him a big truth, and the reason was very sufficient:

Admittedly, Cheon Myung-hoon didn't have that much time to prepare for the official album.

If the first album released is not a full-fledged album, but just a single album. The intention to make money is too obvious.

Fans aren't stupid either, and there will definitely be some negative effects. It is not conducive to his future development, so I would rather not have this little benefit.

So making it into a digital single also has the advantage, that is, it can help the newly established Me丨on music website accumulate users.

Based on SK Telecom's strong technical support, it has launched Me丨on, a wireless music service, after integrating existing wired broadband and wireless networks.

This is the first time in Korea that a new concept of "quote rental" has been proposed, and services are obtained by renting music instead of buying it out.

To put it simply, members have no download restrictions and can use music services as much as they want. However, if your membership expires, you will no longer be able to play songs. Non-member users can download any single for a fee and get the right to play it in perpetuity.

"Me丨On" is a cross-platform wireless music service that allows users to share downloaded music on 3 PCs, 1 mobile phone and 1 MP3 Player. Meet the ubiquitous music needs of users.

Relying on the strong financial support of its parent company, SK Telecom, it can not only occupy the market through lower prices. At the same time, it also works in both the source of the song and the playback terminal.

Taking advantage of the fact that LOEN itself is the largest record company in China, a capital association was established. Funding new singers to release music albums effectively solves the problem of music sources.

In addition, SK is the largest mobile communication company in the country, and it has close cooperation with mobile phone manufacturers such as LG and Samsung. Then actively establish cooperative relations with MP3 manufacturers. Finally, 80% of the playback devices on the Korean market are compatible with the "Me丨On" service.

These innate advantages are destined to become the strongest in South Korea. What is missing at the moment is just an opportunity to reach users.

Of course, there is no skimpiness when it comes to advertising, but there is always an opportunity to embrace new things. Intuitively let the public feel its advantages!

Cheon Myung-hoon's single has attracted a lot of attention, and viewers who have watched "X-MAN" know that there is such a song. If you know that Cheon Myung-hoon's new song is released, many people will be willing to come and listen to it.

And this song is not released on an album, and it can only be found in "Me丨On". With the help of such an opportunity, it is possible to accumulate the most original users.

No one else can do it, only I can do it. It is a business opportunity, but also a kind of monopoly.

So this decision is related to SK's overall policy, and the potential revenue created is far greater than releasing an album. Faced with such a solemn explanation, Kim Jong-ri was speechless.

Well, I admit it if I don't release an album to make a profit. That's not for profit, but for fame!

You don't even participate in a single song, what are you!

Are you so nervous about your studies? It's a vacation!

Other singers release albums to gain fame and fortune. Co-authored with our LOEN on both sleeves and upright, just to bring better music enjoyment to the people?

That's the conscience of the industry!

——

Kim Jong-ri admits he is helpless about this. If you want to solve a problem with communication, only one person is the most suitable person.

Cheon Myung-hoon's teacher, Lee Seon-hee.

"Say, why don't you want to participate in the song?"

Cheon Myung-hoon is called to the studio and is standing in front of the teacher ready to be criticized.

Of course, there are reasons why I don't want to participate in the song, but Cheon Myung-hoon is a little difficult to say:

The lyrics of "Sister is My Woman" are too straightforward and even a little embarrassing. At the beginning, it was just for the effect of variety shows, and it was just impulsive.

Qian Mingxun couldn't appreciate the feelings very well, and he felt a little awkward when recording. Not to mention letting him sing on stage, I'm afraid that he will have an embarrassment.

The style of this song Cheon Myung-hoon doesn't like, and it always reminds him of the "original owner" of the song. He was reluctant to become an official debut song, which is enough to see the depth of resistance.

And Yuna finally revealed this matter, Cheon Myung-hoon and Yoon Eun-hye in the variety show are quite restrained, and it is really not appropriate to have another incident at this time.

So after hesitating for a while, Qian Mingxun didn't know where to start.

"Can't you go and don't you ...... teacher?" Qian Mingxun was a little speechless.

"It's all compared to me? It seems that you have finished your old skills. Li Xianji stopped what she was doing and glanced up at Qian Mingxun.

"I didn't ...... I didn't mean that. He really didn't know what to say.

In the more than a year since he became a master and apprentice, this has never happened. Looking at Qian Mingxun's posture, Li Xianji was also quite confused in her heart.

What is so unspeakable, why can't you even speak? This disciple of his own is not such a twisted person, if it is only because of the lyrics, it will not come to this extent.

The atmosphere in the studio was quiet for a while.

"Xiaoxun. You can't be scared, right?" Li Xianji suddenly thought of a possibility.

Cheon Myung-hoon's debut stage, but there was an accident! In front of so many people in the audience, the accompaniment music was jammed into sound effects. Anyone else will inevitably leave a psychological shadow.

Although he hasn't seen anything unusual, it is indeed possible that Qian Myung-hoon is pretending to be calm. Now it's finally about to officially debut on stage, that's why it's become like this!

It is also reminiscent of his resolute refusal to produce regular albums, and even the single has to be released on the Internet. As a result, even the book signing could not be held......

So it can't be - stage phobia!

“……”

Cheon Myung-hoon also understands the teacher's concerns, but he is really not afraid of the stage.

Although the experience was indeed thrilling, he dreamed of it several times afterward.

But he also completed it perfectly in his dreams, and he became more and more confident......

But it's a reasonable reason compared to his unspeakable real reason. Otherwise, you'll ......

Seeing that Qian Mingxun didn't speak, Li Shanji thought that she had found the crux of the problem: "Xiaoxun." Things are in the past, don't think about it anymore. The probability of an accident happening on stage is very low, and it is impossible to always be your turn. ”

"Hmm......" Qian Mingxun lowered his head, not daring to look at the teacher's expression.

"And the responsibility is not on you, no one will blame you! Fear is just a psychological effect, you have to work hard to overcome it! Now that you have made your debut, you can't never go on stage for the rest of your life!"

"Hmmm......"

Li Xianji also knew this kind of thing, and there was no point in making a tirade. So he waved his hand.

"Go back and think for yourself. ”
