JN-gu, Seoul.

A sunny morning.

Cheon Myung-hoon is jogging near his residence. Today, the temperature has risen slightly, and there is no need to wear a thick coat, otherwise it will be impossible for Qian Mingxun to go out for morning exercises.

"Shhh...... Ha ......"

But after only running for a while and taking a few breaths of cold air, Cheon Myung-hoon stopped.

The temperature is still not very friendly. If you keep running, you will reach the expected amount of exercise. I guess it will be very uncomfortable then, so let's forget it.

But Cheon Myung-hoon didn't plan to go back immediately, he also wanted to see what buildings were nearby. After all, I only moved into the new dormitory yesterday afternoon, and it was relatively late to finish tidying up. He had no plans to go out again.

Cheon Myung-hoon is about to graduate from high school, and he has already made his debut. After that, there are many trips, and there are naturally many inconveniences to live at home. Moving out was a natural thing to do.

Although the mother is very reluctant, her children always have to be independent when they are older. Originally, he planned to start the operation after the year, but considering the preparation stage before the return, Cheon Myung-hoon may have to travel back and forth to the company frequently. In the end, I moved into a new dormitory.

The dormitory is a LOEN procedure, but it is the place chosen by Yoo Hyun-shin. Because as an agent, he will definitely have to rest here. However, Yoo Hyun-shin also has his own house, and he can go back at any time. There is no need to move personal belongings here.

The dormitory area is not too large, and the decoration is also simple style. After all, it's just a temporary residence, and neither of them cares much about those pompous things.

Cheon Myung-hoon is an outlier who has never had a hobby of collecting toys since he was a child. The piano that accompanies him the most is the most.

Later, after that dream, Cheon Myung-hoon's life became even more monotonous. Practice, study, hone your singing skills, and prepare for the college entrance examination.

Qian Mingxun has not enjoyed the life of an additional young master, and he has lived a harder life than his normal peers. So he didn't have too many requirements for his first residence after becoming independent from his family.

Loen's headquarters building is in Samseong-dong, and the dormitory that Yoo Hyun-shin is looking for is not far from the company. Although it is also located in the south of the Yangtze River, compared with the density of buildings in Cheongdam-dong, Sanseong-dong is much more open.

Sancheng Cave is backed by mountains and waters, which can be described as outstanding people. There is not only the large Millennium Plaza, but also the thousand-year-old Buddhist temple Bongeunsa Temple, and the driver's license test venue in JN District. There is also the Korea Integrated Trade Center and COEX, the largest shopping mall in Korea.

It can be said that Samseong-dong is an important landmark in Seoul, South Korea, and it is the most suitable place for foreign exchange and national beauty.

Seeing that there are more and more pedestrians on the street, Cheon Myung-hoon is almost active. It's not something you can do in the morning if you want to get around here, and you'll have the opportunity to take your time later.

Feeling the pocket of his clothes vibrate, Cheon Myung-hoon took out his mobile phone and connected the call. You don't need to look at this time to know who it is, and it is indeed Yoo Hyun-shin.

"Hey, Brother Xianxin. ”

"You're not in the dormitory, where did you go in the morning?"

Yoo Hyun-shin didn't live here yesterday and went back to his house for something. The sign will come this morning. By the way, I brought Cheon Myung-hoon breakfast. He had the key, and he opened the door himself and entered the house. I asked Cheon Myung-hoon to get up and shouted for a long time but didn't respond, and when I opened the door, I found that the person was not at home.

"I woke up and found it a little early, so I came out for a walk. ”

"Didn't sleep well in a different place?"

"Well, it's a little unaccustomed. It's okay, it'll be fine in two days. ”

Cheon Myung-hoon doesn't care much about light and sound when he sleeps, but he recognizes the bed more. Although the newly bought mattress is the same as at home, there are some subtle differences that only you can experience.

"I've brought you breakfast, you haven't eaten yet. Okay, then you can come back quickly. ”

……

Cheon Myung-hoon returns to the dormitory and talks to Yoo Hyun-shin while having breakfast.

"By the way, you've got your driver's license. I'll give it to you in the bag. ”

"Oh, so fast. Cheon Myung-hoon was a little surprised by this efficiency.

"Although I said that I am not in a hurry to use it, but people want to sell this favor. ”

Yoo Hyun-shin finished eating, got up and patted his ass and went into the bathroom.

"Okay......"

Qian Mingxun is still a little interested in cars, and he has learned it since he was a child. The other day, I occasionally talked about this matter, and Yoo Hyun-shin arranged for him to take the driver's license test.

Although there are many ways to get a driver's license without taking a test, after all, you are responsible for your own life and the lives of others. If his driving skills are not up to standard, Cheon Myung-hoon will not be allowed to drive.

Cheon Myung-hoon also finished eating, and simply cleaned up the garbage and put it in a large plastic bag. It's convenient to throw it away when you go out.

"Do you want to buy a car?"

After swapping places with Cheon Myung-hoon in front of the washstand, Yoo Hyun-shin suddenly asked.

Qian Mingxun turned his head and glanced at Yoo Hyun-shin, and then continued to wash his hands: "I want to think about it, but I don't have any money." ”

Hearing Qian Myungxun's answer, Yoo Hyun-shin also froze. But after a little thought, he understood what "no money" meant.

"Are you really going to use that card in the future?"

"Hmm. Cheon Myung-hoon turned off the faucet. "Otherwise, what kind of independence would it be?"

Cheon Myung-hoon did take a card given to him by his mother, because he wouldn't be able to leave the house without it. But Cheon Myung-hoon didn't plan to use the money in the card, he really wanted to try to support himself.

Qian Mingxun has signed a contract, and the company will be responsible for clothing, food, housing and transportation. As long as performing arts activities are carried out normally, they will definitely be able to meet normal needs. If you do this, you will have to spend your family's money and be obsessed with high spending that is beyond your ability.

So why did Cheon Myung-hoon make his debut?

Those pleasures weren't right for him right now. When the time comes for him in the future, I believe that he can already obtain it with his own ability.

And the last thing Cheon Myung-hoon wants is to add a burden to Yuna. On the day of Yun'er's birthday party, he thought clearly that he wanted to make his income as pure and "clean" as possible. Only in this way can he have a clear conscience when he spends money on Yun'a in the future.

Although Liu Xianxin is his agent, the involvement is no longer clear. It is impossible for Cheon Myung-hoon to resign Yoo Hyun-shin, and if he is replaced by an outsider, there will definitely be more trouble.

The influence of the background cannot be completely peeled off, and it will always be with him. These are not for Cheon Myung-hoon to decide. If he had been obsessed with the nature of the matter, it would never have come to fruition.

and Lin Yun'er, as the ACE of Girls' Generation, has a super ability to attract gold. She doesn't even need Cheon Myung-hoon's help, there's no doubt about that. Without the help of background and plagiarism, Qian Mingxun may not be able to compare.

After all, Cheon Myung-hoon's motivation is not to make money, but just personal interests. Even if Cheon Myung-hoon's worth skyrockets in the future, the frequency of participating in business activities will definitely be much lower than that of Yuna. As for the share ratio of the artist's contract, Cheon Myung-hoon is not much higher. The main difference is that there are no other hard and fast terms.

The commercial activities of the drama come with money quickly and the investment is small. However, appearance fees are positively correlated with popularity. TV shows are less expensive for time spent on TV shows, but they can increase visibility and popularity. It is equivalent to increasing the value.

The publicity and promotion of artists all need money. In order to participate in high-rated programs, it may be necessary to use a lot of connections in secret. The value of maintaining those relationships far exceeds the show's compensation.

Therefore, it is impossible for an artist to keep singing and filming with stuffy hair, and it is impossible to make money crazy without discipline all the time. There is a trade-off between the two, and it is a difficult problem that there is no correct solution but only the optimal solution.

And there are all kinds of unforeseen accidents, and crisis public relations also requires money to complete. The accumulation of all sorts of inconspicuous little problems can likewise destroy a person in the future. Not everyone can make a comeback, and a big injury may be the end of an acting career.

At the end of the day, it's all about popularity.

Popularity is a star's talisman that can help him defend against most damage. Popularity is an unimpeded passport, because it can be converted into value at any time. Popularity is the foundation of all celebrities, and it is necessary to use all means to maintain it.

Art that cannot create value has a meaning to exist. But it should be put in museums and textbooks. Instead of taking it out for the public to taste.

It feels a little sad, but that's what it is.

Yoo Hyun-shin patted Cheon Myung-hoon on the shoulder: "Okay, it's good to be determined." Don't worry, with my brother here, even if you hit the street, don't be afraid!"

“……”

Cheon Myung-hoon was tempted to say that I couldn't have hit the streets. As long as I want to be red, there are a hundred ways. No one needs to worry about that. He had a library of Divine Comedy in his head that he could copy. If it's not enough, then come up with a few more, and you can squander it with the Divine Comedy.

But as long as Qian Mingxun's discipline didn't collapse for a day, it would be impossible for him to do such a thing. And with Qian Mingxun's current ability, he can't do whatever he wants if he wants to copy the song.

The idea of learning to arrange music is extremely urgent, and Qian Myung-hoon can't wait to start as soon as he finishes the exam. But after consulting with his teacher Li Xianji and other seniors, the advice he got was much the same:

Sufficient accumulation is required first.

In popular popular songs, the composer and arranger tend to be two people. Because many songwriters only have the inspiration and feeling for the melody, and do not have the relevant composition knowledge and arrangement skills. Arrangers, on the other hand, have the knowledge and skills to express outstanding melodies.

The creation of the main theme is only a small part of the composition, and it needs to be recreated through the arrangement. Use a variety of voices to embellish the author's feelings more concretely.

Especially after the improvement of science and technology, the form of arrangement is becoming more and more abundant. Proficiency in all kinds of musical instruments is not up to the job, and you also need to be highly familiar with various effects and synthesizers. Everyone wants to pursue a higher quality of arrangement, but there is a limit to their own ability.

It is impossible for a song to be perfected in a lifetime, so it needs to be brainstormed and perfected by many people.

Cheon Myung-hoon is just an ordinary person in his dream, and he doesn't know anything about arrangement. He only remembered the main melody and lyrics, and the other parts were naturally impossible to remember clearly because he had no concept.

And there are so many strange sound effects and effects, some of which may not have been invented yet!
