Bao'er is far away in Japan, and she is about to release a new Japanese album, so it is impossible to return to South Korea in the near future, and Zheng Xiyi doesn't want to disturb her at this time. The reason why he told Jung Yunhao to pull Jung Hee-yi to practice dancing was probably that he mentioned his debut as a singer during the karaoke that day, although Jung Hee-yi refused at the time, Bao'er did not give up. Zheng Xiyi doesn't mind playing a ticket when he's interested, he's also been a musician since elementary school, but it's a joke to make him an IDOL. Zheng Yunhao also knew that this was probably a little joke between Bao'er and Zheng Xiyi, so he should have completed the task, and when he was done, he confessed to Zheng Xiyi that it was Bao'er who confessed, and Zheng Xiyi naturally laughed it off.

Five minutes passed quickly, and everyone stood up again and lined up to start again, and Zheng Xiyi continued to dance. His temper is like this, since he has already started practicing, he has to practice this dance well, and he doesn't feel how difficult it is to learn, but he feels good after really devoting himself to it, just as a daily fitness exercise.

He danced more and more skillfully, and became more and more focused, but he didn't notice that there were more people in the practice room, until Jung Yun-ho asked everyone to rest again, he found that there were a few little girls sitting against the wall, it was Jung so-yeon, Kim Hyo-yeon, Kwon Yo-ri and Lim Yoon-a, and BADA was also standing aside and looking at him with his shoulders crossed. Since the last time I had coffee with Zheng Xiyi with Bao'er, the relationship between BADA and Zheng Xiyi has not been so blunt, and they often meet on the fourth floor, so they have slowly become acquainted.

"HI, BADA-SAMA. Zheng Xiyi wiped the sweat from his head and face and said hello to BADA.

“HI…… What, are you American etiquette or Korean etiquette?" BADA was stunned by his mixed American-Korean greeting, and didn't bother to bother with him, and waved his hand in return, "How did you sneak here to practice? ”

Zheng Xiyi felt that there must be three black lines on her head, and this sister spoke so unkindly, "Sister BADA, it's not a good habit to tell the truth in person, please be sure to correct it." ”

"Oh, I'm sorry, I accidentally told the truth again, I'm so embarrassed, you actually danced very well just now. BADA didn't even bother to make a panicked expression, so she said so bluntly.

Zheng Xiyi, even if this is the case, when it comes to raising the bar with girls, Zheng Xiyi, who has been fighting with Lin Xiyin for more than ten years, has absolute confidence, "Sister BADA has won the award, although I also think that I dance well, but there is still room for improvement, I will definitely work harder, I want to be a pirate...... Ah, no, it's the man of the Korean dance king. ”

Sitting on the side and watching the lively four little girls all make vomiting looks, BADA couldn't stand Zheng Xiyi's cheekiness, and laughed out loud, "Just you? ”

Zheng Xiyi looked at BADA calmly, "Sister BADA, don't underestimate people!" But I'll sit down and rest first, and then I can only be a wheelchair dancer." After speaking, he sat on the stomach of Lee Hyuk-jae who was lying on the ground, and rolled his eyes when he sat down.

JUNG HEE-YI SLIPPED FROM LEE HYUK-JAE TO THE FLOOR AND SAT DOWN, RAISED HIS HEAD AND ASKED BADA, "WHY IS BADA SISTER SO FREE TO COME AND WATCH ME DANCE." ”

BADA's face sank and he smiled self-deprecatingly, "I'm here to say goodbye to these children, my contract with the company has expired and will not be renewed." ”

Zheng Xiyi then remembered that S.E.S had been disbanded by S.M on December 23, 2002, and S.M did not even give her the opportunity to fly solo, and BADA could only wait for the end of the contract before signing with other companies to seek the opportunity to fly solo.

"I'm sure that BADA-san will once again stand on stage as a solo singer and exude her charm. Zheng Xiyi stopped joking and said to BADA very seriously.

BADA CLEANED UP HER MOOD AND CLAPPED HER HANDS AND SMILED AND SAID TO THE MALE AND FEMALE TRAINEES, "YES, THANK YOU, XIYI." Okay, let's not talk about that, kids, I'm going out to dinner today!"

Zheng Xiyi stood up and waved his hand at BADA, "Sister BADA, take them to dinner, I still have something to do, so I won't go today, anyway, Sister BADA, you have my phone, and you can make an appointment with me when you are free." ”

BADA nodded, and didn't take Zheng Xiyi with her, after all, this was a farewell banquet for her and these trainees who had known each other for several years, and it was not appropriate for Zheng Xiyi to follow.

Zheng Xiyi walked out of S.M and came across the road to get a taxi, he raised his head and squinted his eyes at the four-story small yellow building, his heart was cold. S.E.S is the only girl group of the same era that can compete with Fin.K.L, and in terms of strength, S.E.S is actually stronger than Fin.K.L, and the two sides can be said to have been fighting for several years. But these are the two top women's groups in South Korea, and the agency will disband when it says it will be disbanded, and it doesn't care about the feelings of the team members and fans. S.M is not even willing to give SOLO resources to BADA after its disbandment, although the female idol market is now sluggish, but it is unlikely to lose money with BADA's popularity, it is just a matter of making more and making less, and such a cruel and ruthless brokerage company can only be found in the deformed entertainment market in South Korea.

The reason why Zheng Xiyi bypassed Xu Daxin and flew to the United States to find Li Xiuman, and finally established S.MCC in the form of a cooperative subsidiary, if the company's dominance is not in his own hands, it is very likely that it will be abandoned by S.M one day. Although it is unlikely that this kind of thing will happen with Zheng Xiyi's status, who can say for sure what the future will be, and only by controlling S.MCC can Zheng Xiyi slowly infiltrate S.M, which is related to some of Zheng Xiyi's layouts in the next ten or even twenty years. As for the things that will happen to those young boys and girls who have just met and are about to get acquainted, Zheng Xiyi decided to look at the mood when the time comes, it is too early to think about this, he just wants to be a black hand that quietly reaches into S.M.

The next day, Zheng Xiyi followed Lin Xiyin to S.M, this time not to practice dance, but to meet with the director and screenwriter of "Millennium Love". The other party may be inexplicably excited because Zheng Xiyi promised to consider playing the male lead, so he contacted Lin Xiyin only one day later, and came to discuss the script and role with Zheng Xiyi in person very sincerely.

"Ani Hase, Lee Gwan-hee director NIM, Kim Ki-ho writer NIM, Lee Sun-mi writer NIM, I'm Jung Hee-yi. Zheng Xiyi and Lin Xiyin met with people in Kim Yingmin's office again, Zheng Xiyi silently complained in his heart, Jin Yingmin's office is about to become my special conference room.

The two sides exchanged pleasantries for a while and then entered the theme, Li Guanxi and the three of them actually had some bottoms in their hearts, although there are favor cards like Cheng Youli to play, but there are many problems that need to be solved by Zheng Xiyi and S.MCC's concessions, and it is not a small concession, it is a very huge concession.

The first is the issue of salary. In 2003, even top Korean actors like Lee Byung-hun and Jang Dong-jian were paid about 10 million to 15 million won per episode of the TV series, but "ALLIN" for various reasons, Zheng Xiyi's salary for only two episodes reached 50 million, that is to say, 25 million per episode, and it was still a supporting role, and "Millennium Love" would pay Zheng Xiyi 500 million won even if it was based on this salary. Because the theme of this drama is too novel, SBS feels that the risk is too great, so the investment is not much, if according to the salary that SBS paid to Zheng Xiyi when filming "ALLIN", then this drama will not need to be filmed.

Then there's the question of the cast. Although Jung Hee-yi's only "ALLIN" is a supporting role, the protagonists of this drama are Lee Byung-hun and Song Hye Kyo, as well as old-timers like Lim Hyun-sik and Xian Yu Eun-sook, which is extremely luxurious. The heroine of "Millennium Love" is Cheng Youli, who has just transformed from IDOL, the second male is the rookie actor Kim Jin-nam, and the second female Kim Sharon debuted in 2001, and they all play supporting roles, which is completely different from "ALLIN".

Of course, "ALLIN" is SBS's 2003 New Year's drama, and it is not appropriate to compare "Millennium Love" with it, but Zheng Xiyi's identity and status are there, "Millennium Love" should at least be a big production if it is not an annual drama, but "Millennium Love" is not a big production at all, so Li Guanxi and the three can only think of relying on sincerity and favor to impress Zheng Xiyi. As for S.MCC, Zheng Xiyi has 49% of the shares anyway, and he really wants to play and believe that S.MCC is not too strict. Li Guanxi didn't go around in circles, and very bluntly raised the problem of "Millennial Love" itself, anyway, it has already come, and it is a manifestation of sincerity to explain it clearly first.

Jin Yingmin pondered for a moment and turned his head to look at Zheng Xiyi, "From the company's point of view, this drama is indeed a bit substandard, but after all, Xiyi is invited to star, so it still depends on what Xiyi's thoughts are." ”

Zheng Xiyi looked at Jin Yingmin and thought to himself, old fox, are you digging a pit or digging a pit. first said that this drama does not meet the company's standards, and then asks me what I think, I want to act, in case this drama is smashed, I will insist on going my own way, I want to say that I will not act, it is my own decision that has nothing to do with the company, if I offend people or TV stations, I will also offend.

"Director Li NIM, let's talk about it one by one. Zheng Xiyi looked at Li Guanxi, "The salary is actually not a big problem, and I haven't thought about getting the salary of the United States in South Korea, which is unrealistic and too self-conscious." "ALLIN" is an example, and there are many reasons involved, so it cannot be used as a precedent. I'm actually a rookie actor who has just starred in a TV series in South Korea and is still a supporting role, so the salary is just at this level. ”

Li Guanxi was taken aback, but he didn't expect Zheng Xiyi to put his position so low. Of course, if he really wants to pay Zheng Xiyi according to the grade of the rookie actor that Zheng Xiyi said, it will be a fool, "No, no, Zheng Xiyi XI, you misunderstood, I don't mean that Zheng Xiyi XI is not worth this salary, I mean that our production budget is not as much as "ALLIN", so we can't give Zheng Xiyi XI the same salary as "ALLIN", but according to the salary of top Korean actors, we can still afford it." ”

Zheng Xiyi nodded, although the salary does not matter to him, but on behalf of his identity, as well as the interests of S.MCC, it is reasonable to get the salary of a top Korean actor, "The salary is so decided, as for the cast, I don't care if it is a rookie actor, everyone comes from a rookie, and it doesn't mean that a rookie plays poorly, as long as he has strength, it doesn't matter if he is a rookie or not." ”

Kim Ki-ho nodded solemnly, "I can make a guarantee to Zheng Xiyi XI about the actors, although they are all newcomers, their strength is still good, they are all selected by us, and they are completely selected according to the roles in my and Seon-mei's minds." ”

Li Shanmei also nodded in approval, Zheng Xiyi looked at the two famous Korean screenwriters and husband and wife, and said with a smile: "Since Kim writer NIM and Lee writer NIM said so, what else do I have to say, I may have to consider other people's guarantees, but you two are a golden husband and wife, and what you say is naturally enough." ”

Li Guanxi and the three didn't expect Zheng Xiyi to be so easy to speak, at first they thought that what Zheng Xiyi and Cheng Youli said was to give Cheng Youli face and was embarrassed to refuse directly, although they had hope in their hearts this time, they didn't dare to take it seriously, but they didn't expect that the meaning of listening to Zheng Xiyi's words seemed to be that they had decided to take this drama, and the three of them couldn't help but be overjoyed.

Zheng Xiyi took a sip of coffee, raised his head and said to Kim Ki-ho with a little embarrassment: "But before the final decision, I still have a few questions about this drama to ask Kim writer NIM and Lee writer NIM, these questions were raised by colleagues in the company's planning team after studying the script." I'd like to apologize to both of you first, it's a bit excessive. ”
