What was the reason for expelling Jessica?

In the conference room, everyone's expressions moved slightly because of Han Yu's question.

The people who can sit here today and participate in this video conversation are all shrewd people, and they can all hear a hint of intriguing in Han Yu's tone.

What should I do? It seems that the other party is not very happy.

Jin Yingmin, who was present, couldn't help but turn his head to look at Li Xiuman, who was sitting on the main seat, and secretly gave him an inquiring look.

Li Xiuman still sat in his seat peacefully, and threw a casual glance at him, indicating that he was not impatient.

It was to be expected that Han Woo himself would have some objections to this matter, but Lee so-man thought that SM was sure enough to get the man to agree to this matter.

"The reasons are quite complicated, after all, Jessica has been friends with our company for so many years, and our company would not want to make such a regrettable decision if it was not necessary. ”

A calm voice spread with the effect of the microphone, and the SM senior personnel present immediately perked up, and sat down to look at Li Xiuman, who was speaking.

Now that the president has come forward, there is no room for them to play next.

"Mr. Han, I don't know if you know, Jessica seems to be secretly in a relationship with a businessman outside the circle at the moment. ”

On the projection screen, Han Yu, who was sitting in the study, raised his eyebrows and asked, "Is it 'like' or 'sure'?"

Li Xiuman was silent for a moment, and then replied: "It's 'like'." ”

An undisguised chuckle immediately came into the ears of everyone in the conference room, making SM's cadres feel a faint sense of shame in their hearts.

"It seems that your relationship with Jessica is really not very good, the artist of your own company, but you, the president, can only give me such a vague answer. ”

Han Yu straightened his shirt, sat up straight and stared at the camera, and said with a smile: "I know what you are thinking about Chairman Li, but if you want me to agree to this matter, a mere lace news that has not been confirmed is far from enough." ”

Jin Yingmin's face was a little unnatural, on the other hand, Li Xiuman, who was sitting on the main seat, had the same face as usual, and he didn't have the slightest intention of being pierced.

"I think you seem to have forgotten that I personally asked you to let go of the restrictions on love in girlhood. Do you really think I'm going to care about that? If you want to convince me, you might as well come up with something dry, and don't forget, you only have an hour. ”

Li Xiuman said calmly: "Of course, the reasons that prompted us to do this do not stop there. THE POINT IS, WITH THE HELP OF HER RUMORED BOYFRIEND, JESSICA PLANS TO START HER OWN PERSONAL FASHION BRAND THIS YEAR, WHICH SEEMS TO BE CALLED 'BLANC &ECLARE'. ”

"What's wrong with that? If I'm not mistaken, there shouldn't be a rule in your contract that prohibits artists from running their own businesses, right?"

"There are indeed no regulations in the company's contract that restrict artists from running their own businesses!"

Jin Yingmin, who was present, couldn't help but interject, "But Mr. Han, Jessica has affected the normal activities of the group in order to create her brand, and this behavior clearly violates the content of the contract!"

As soon as Kim Young-min said this, the atmosphere on both sides of the video conversation fell silent for a while.

Li Xiuman, who was sitting on the main seat, glanced at his subordinate from the corner of his eye, although Jin Yingmin's behavior just now was a bit suspicious of overstepping, but he didn't say anything, because what Jin Yingmin said was the second reason he wanted to throw at Han Yu.

This is also the biggest contradiction between their company and Zheng Xiuyan on the bright side.

In private communication, Zheng Xiuyan more than once asked to adjust her personal itinerary to make time for her to create a personal brand, but SM directly rejected her request every time on the grounds that her itinerary was equivalent to everyone's itinerary and could not be transferred.

As a result, it seems that the two sides have really become an impasse that is difficult to reconcile.

Of course, it's just "seemingly".

"Tuk ...... ......"

The soft sound of his fingers tapping on the armrest clearly echoed on both sides of the video session, and Han Yu on the projection screen looked at the camera without saying a word, and his expressionless face made it impossible to understand his thoughts at this time.

However, soon, an understatement response reached the ears of the SM people, causing them to tense their faces.

"Because the individual career and the group career cannot be coordinated for the time being, I want to simply kick this person out, ignoring the turmoil of the stock price, ignoring whether doing so will ruin a girl group that has been famous for many years, and ignoring the disproportionate loss and gain in doing so...... Well, I'll assume you're serious about that. ”

The tall figure on the couch on the projection screen shook his head and smiled, and continued to squint at the camera.

"However, I want to ask that you and Jessica cannot mediate...... What's my business? Do I have any reason to think about you?"

One hand was raised to loosen his tie, and Kim Young-min lowered his head and sighed imperceptibly.

He knew that this man was not so easy to fool.

In the final analysis, it is okay for SM to deceive people from the outside world with all kinds of statements at the moment, but at this time, it should be put on the table as a bargaining chip, and the result is the same as what Han Yu said.

Unconvincing.

"Do you have any other interesting reasons to make up? If not, just end this pointless meeting, it's a waste of my time. ”

Seeing that the figure on the projection screen wanted to get up and leave, Li Xiuman, who was sitting on the main seat, added without changing his face: "As long as you fire Jessica, you can save 10 million US dollars a year." ”

Han Yu looked sideways on the projection screen with a strange look on his face.

"You are, after getting a sum of money for nothing, you still pretend to be generous and say to others, can you give a little less in the future?"

In an instant, Li Xiuman's expression finally changed slightly, and the SM personnel present also showed embarrassed expressions on their faces.

After all, no matter how thick-skinned SM is, he can't maintain any calm posture when he hears this.

Han Yu's meaning is obvious, he doesn't care about the money, so it seems that Li Xiuman, who raised this matter, and SM Company have become the kind of clown who gets into the eyes of money.

It's just that people can't get off the stage.

Li Xiuman's face was gloomy for a while, and the hand on the table quietly clenched.

has been in a high position for many years, how could he have been so squeezed?

However, no matter how angry he was, he saw that Han Yu was about to turn around and leave on the projection screen, he still suppressed the anger in his heart and said in a deep voice:

"The real reason why we fired Jessica...... In order to get rid of the burden of being eliminated by the times, we are ready to dissolve Girls' Generation!"

As soon as these words were spoken, Kim Young-min, who was sitting on the side, immediately looked back at Li Xiuman in surprise, "President!"

Why is it all of a sudden that the truth is being told?

And after hearing Li Xiuman's truth, the tall figure on the projection screen with his back to the camera also stopped and looked back.

The dark eyes gradually narrowed, staring at the camera, or rather, at Li Xiuman and the others who were sitting in the conference room at the end of the conversation.

"Okay, let's do it. ”

In an instant, not to mention Jin Yingmin, who was shocked, even Li Xiuman, who blurted out in a moment of anger just now, was stunned, and looked at the figure on the projection screen suspiciously.
