Episode 765: Emergency requisition of the practice room
"Xiyin Oni!" Xu Xian exclaimed in surprise.
The girls who were playing turned their heads together, and saw Lin Xiyin standing in front of the nanny car with a smile on her face and waving to them.
"Wow!Ernie!" Yun'er was like a cheerful deer, casually shoved the handle of her suitcase into Jessica's hand beside her, and then jumped and jumped at Lin Xiyin, shouting in her mouth: "Ernie! Ernie ......"
Jessica's excitement when she unexpectedly saw Lin Xiyin suddenly shook off the clouds, pursed her lips and puffed out her cheeks, staring at Yun'er's back with joy.
SUNNY, who was walking on the other side, sneered and patted Jessica's shoulder comfortingly, Jessica turned her head to look at her, her heart warmed, and she was about to say something, but SUNNY pushed the suitcase in front of Jessica's eyes, "Sika, you can also help me look at the luggage." ”
After saying that, SUNNY also opened his arms and rushed towards Lin Xiyin, shouting in his mouth: "Xiyin Ernie, I miss you so much!"
Jessica was stunned for two seconds, and before she could come back to her senses, there was a chattering sound in her ears, and she didn't hear what the girls were talking about, and when she turned back, she was left with only a bunch of suitcases around her.
This time, the girls are going to have three talk shows in the United States and France, and then they have to participate in the Hallyu concert in Paris, because they are entering the American market, all kinds of preparations are naturally improving, so the agent team carries several times more clothes and equipment than usual, and the assistants don't have time to take care of the girls' luggage, and they are not a delicate little public act, they just pull their suitcases, but they are all lost to Jessica now.
"Ahh......h
Jessica stomped her feet in anger, raised her head and was about to lose her temper, but saw Lin Xiyin in the crowd beckoning to her, Jessica pursed her lips and raised her chin, and snorted coldly, but her feet didn't obey, and she threw away the pile of suitcases and ran to Lin Xiyin's side.
Zheng Xiyi hid in the United States and didn't go back to muddy the water, and Lin Xiyin, who had no excitement to see, naturally didn't bother to stay in South Korea, so he took his daughter back to the United States before Christmas, which is called annual leave. As a result, as soon as she returned to the United States, her daughter was taken over by her parents on both sides, and she was spoiled 24 hours a day, but she was left aside and ignored. With nothing to do, she had to bully Zheng Xiyi for fun, but this kid is now smart, and when she sees that the signs are wrong, she runs in front of her parents and daughter, no matter how domineering Lin Xiyin is, she can't stage a full martial arts in front of her daughter, so she is quite bored at home this annual vacation.
Lin Xiyin, who really had nothing to do, had no choice but to contact Kim Yingmin in a fake way, took over the trip of Girls' Generation in the United States, followed the car to the airport to pick up the girls who had not seen her for more than two months, and secretly complained about her parents when she went out: You don't let me play with your son and my own daughter, then I'll play with other people's daughters, although it's not as cute as my own baby daughter, but there are nine of them, and the quality is not enough for me to make up the quantity!
Kneaded each girl's little face, and Lin Xiyin, who had been bored for more than two months, waved his hand contentedly, "Let's go, carry your luggage to the car, Ernie will take you to a big meal!"
When the nine foodies heard this, their blood boiled, and they screamed and went back to drag their luggage, Park Yongsu frowned when he looked at it, and leaned over to Lin Xiyin and whispered: "Director NIM, they just had lunch on the plane an hour ago......"
Lin Xiyin glanced at him, she just heard the girls casually say that they came in economy class this time, so she sneered: "Can you order a meal in economy class?"
Although it is the company's financial regulation to take economy class, as the chief broker, Park Yongsu has the power to make temporary adjustments, not to mention upgrading everyone, but it should not be a problem to let nine girls go to business class, so Lin Xiyin will throw his face at him.
"Uh...... Brittle Song Hamida, Director NIM, I didn't arrange it. ”
Park Yongsu apologized awkwardly, he could explain this, but it was not good for him to say it himself, because when the leader is picking fault with you, no matter how legitimate your reasons are, it will only make the leader feel that you are making excuses.
Seeing Park Yongsu's embarrassed face, Li Chengman on the side hurriedly explained: "Director NIM, in the past, like this kind of long-distance flight, Director Park always bought business class for them, but this time because I was not sure when Xiaoxian's movie would be completed, the air tickets were temporarily booked by the assistants, and they didn't pay attention at the time, so they left according to the company's standards." When I was at the airport, something happened, we pressed the deadline to board the plane, only to find out that it was all economy class, this time there were many people, the full upgrade was unrealistic, only a few people were not suitable, so I discussed it with Director Park, and everyone simply took the economy class, even Director Park himself did not go to business class. ”
Korean entertainment agencies are all famous misers, as long as time and place permit, they resolutely do not let artists take planes without taking a plane, and would rather let artists take a car for seven or eight hours to run a trip, if the artists are not popular, and they don't even have a nanny car, the activities in the Seoul metropolitan area take public transportation by themselves, and then take the train farther away.
In such a stingy Korean industry, S.M is even more unique, so even though Girls' Generation is already a top idol group in Asia, but it is often economy class when flying, and the entire agent team has the privilege of business class with Park Yongsu, the general agent, but he is more good at being a person, and he usually sits with other agents.
Lin Xiyin nodded at Li Chengman, even if he greeted him and showed that he had listened to the explanation, his face softened and said to Park Yongsu: "I'm sorry, it seems that I blamed Director Park for it." ”
Park Yongsu hurriedly saluted and said, "Ani, as the chief agent, I didn't arrange it well, so I let the children sit in economy class for more than ten hours, so the director NIM is right, it was my mistake." ”
Seeing Park Yong-so's attitude of admitting defeat and punishment, Lin Xiyin sighed in his heart. She has long wanted to replace the general agent of Girls' Generation with Lee Sung-man, but she has never found a chance to get rid of Park Yong-so, and this time it is the same, with such a sincere attitude, she has no room to use the topic.
She has nothing to blame Li Chengman, if he didn't help Park Yongsu explain just now, Lin Xiyin will definitely know the specific situation in the future, and at that time it is difficult to guarantee that she will not be suspicious of Li Chengman's character, but it is better now, at least once again proves Zheng Xiyi's vision of people.
Glancing at Li Chengman, who didn't know that he had helped at all, Lin Xiyin smiled slightly wryly, waved his hand and turned to get into the car.
With his feet on the pedal, Lim Hee-eun stopped and turned back to Park Yong-so and said, "Director Park, please remind me when I return to Japan, and the next council will discuss raising the travel standards of SJ and Girls' Generation." ”
Park Yong-so hurriedly nodded in agreement.
When Lin Xiyin got into the car, Park Yongsu raised his head and glanced at Li Chengman with complicated eyes, Li Chengman didn't understand the meaning, and asked suspiciously: "MO?"
Park Yongsu also shook his head and smiled bitterly, reached out and patted Li Chengman's shoulder, "It's nothing, Gu Mou, Chengman." ”
Li Chengman suddenly realized, and said with a smile: "What is there to thank, even if I don't say it, Director NIM will know in a while." ”
Park Yongsu smiled and didn't speak again, thinking about what Lin Hee-yin said at the end.
He is not Lin Xiyin's secretary, and Lin Xiyin is not in charge of Girls' Generation now, so why do you need him to remind him, the meaning of that sentence is obviously to let him convey it to Kim Yingmin.
When the nanny car arrived at the hotel, S.M didn't even let the artist sit in business class, and it was naturally impossible to live in a five-star hotel, that is, an ordinary three-star business hotel, and it was good not to throw these people into a motel.
Lin Xiyin looked at the somewhat dilapidated building, the corners of his mouth twitched, he didn't follow the girls upstairs, and sat on the sofa in the lobby reading magazines to pass the time. The girls have long been accustomed to the stingy style of their own company, plus there is a big meal waiting for them, so they didn't complain anything, rushed upstairs and threw their luggage into the room, washed up in a hurry, and it only took half an hour to go downstairs one after another, and followed Lin Xiyin out to wave.
Park Yong-so originally wanted to send someone to follow, but he still didn't speak. Anyway, this is New York, and no one can recognize the girls walking on the street, and Lin Xiyin, the head snake in the ground, will not take them to any dangerous places if they want to, it is better to sell Lin Xiyin, let her take the children to play freely and relax.
After eating a sumptuous meal, the girls accompanied Lin Xiyin for another three hours before taking a taxi back to the hotel to rest. It was already jet-lagged, and they were tired from eating and shopping, so the nine girls didn't eat dinner, and they fell asleep in their respective beds without even going to bed.
Early the next morning, Lin Xiyin came to the hotel again and took the girls and the agent team to the Ed Sullivan Theater, the recording location of "The Late Show of David". However, they couldn't meet the host David Letterman, but only met with the band of the show, because the talk shows in the United States are basically live accompaniment of the band, and the two sides need to run in. The song of "BOYS" was remixed by producer Teddy Riley, and the original song is very familiar to Americans, so it didn't take too much time.
The bigger problem comes from the stage. Most of the people who usually sing on the show are European and American singers, and even if there is a group, they will sing duets and trios or something, and there are very few idol groups with more than four people, so the stage of "David's Late Night Show" is very small, and the nine girls can't stand in a row, let alone dance.
Lin Xiyin communicated with the program team for a long time, and made a few phone calls, her connections in New York are still very wide, after all, RELOAD is now a giant in the industry, so in the end, the program team agreed to expand the stage area, although it is impossible to expand into a stage like a Korean singing show, but nine girls can sing and dance when they squeeze. It's just that the requirements for the girls are much higher, because the space is too narrow, and a little bigger action may hinder other people, and even the timing of the movement must be accurate to the beat, otherwise it is likely to crash on the spot.
With a bunch of questions, the nine girls followed Lin Xiyin home, because that small three-star hotel did not have space for the girls to practice, and it was impossible to rent a rehearsal space now, so after thinking about it, they could only urgently requisition Zheng Xiyi's private practice room.
