Chapter 170: Who's Down (Part I)

PS: Sorry...... I was so sleepy today, I fell asleep when I came back, and I slept until nine o'clock before I got up to eat...... In fact, the coding words only start at ten o'clock...... Really sorry!

On the morning of the first day of July, CUBE released the main activity plans of each department and team in the second half of the year through its official website, including the return of the idol team, actor activities, the company's investment and production, and film shooting...... There are so many of them that they were reprinted in full by the entertainment sections of major Korean portals almost instantly, and became the headlines. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Among them, the first place is the oldest girl group kara with CUBE qualifications, and they will return in the second half of the year.

First of all, in September, they will return to South Korea to release their third regular album in Korean, and when the time comes, they will have a skirmish encounter with Girls' Generation. And considering the natural confidence of one of their three major girl groups in 07, as well as the stable popularity brought by the Japanese market, although I dare not say that it will pose any threat to Girls' Generation, there is no doubt that they will retreat.

In addition, they will occupy the first position of the K-pop girl group in Japan as soon as they debut, and they will release their second carefully produced Japanese regular album through the operation of Universal Music Japan around November. This news is especially important for the industry, as Kara is really ...... in Japan It's really a fire that people can't figure out when they break their heads.,Aside from the few bug-like groups in Japan.,Their status in Japan is really getting more and more ...... Amazing!

And under the kara is 4minute.

In fact, as a group, they just released a regular album in the first half of the year and went to South America to hold a concert, so there were no official activities in the next six months. But even so, they will follow Kara to try to release a small single or mini album in Japan.

Test the water, that's all.

Further down is the beast, they have also returned to South Korea in the first half of the year, so there are only two clear things in the second half of the year, one is the upcoming 2011 MTV World Stage concert in Malaysia, as the only Korean artist group invited that year, they will participate as scheduled. Immediately after, also in Japan, BEAST will be the first to release its first full-fledged album in Japanese in August.

Japan, and Japan again, this is the feeling shared by everyone after seeing the arrangement of the first three idol groups...... The world's second largest entertainment market, a good place to make money, and currently the main exporter of Hallyu.

Then if you think about it, you can basically see something else from the actions of these three groups. First of all, CUBE is financially healthy, after all, Japan has enough money, and secondly, the three groups have basically established their status, not the top, but they have also become one of the representative groups of the Korean Wave, and they are the so-called backbone, after all, they can all go to Japan to make money while ensuring the Korean market!

In the future, the new group APINK will not have any itinerary in Japan (it is strange if there is), and they will continue their follow-up song activities in July with a song from their debut album, and then they will enter the first recuperation period.

However, at the end of the year, Apink may release a mini-album depending on the timing.

It's simple, it's neat.

This is the end of the so-called idol activities, and the next thing is the participation and activity schedule of CUBE artists in their personal capacity for film and television...... Uh, this one is just dense!

After all, CUBE comes with the investment and production of film and television dramas, and almost every actor and idol has a corresponding plan...... In terms of netizens' complaints, even Kim Sae-ron has starring in TV series and movies, or cooperates with Cui Foyan, and other people leak it casually!

And the next thing that made the industry feel a pain in the brain again was the investment and production project list of the TV program by the subsidiary in charge of production and investment in charge of Jin Zhongming...... After a closer look, I found that Cube actually invested in all the Sunday prime-time variety shows of the three major TV stations and TVN, as well as the shared investment of several TV series and movies!

Seriously, any colleague in the industry should be panicked when staring at this long list of programs and film and television dramas. I all know that Jin Zhongming will do this sooner or later, but if he really comes, it still makes people's hearts sour...... People are more popular than people, that's the truth!

And at the end of the event program...... An inconspicuous piece of text relieved many people.

It may be that the three movies that have not yet been drawn are so tiger-like, so Cube only has one film production plan for the entire second half of the year, which really makes all the film stakeholders overjoyed, and also makes some big people who are scared by the previous three movies very relaxed.

Well, let's take a look at this movie specifically!

First of all, it has a strange name, which is called "Introduction to Architecture".

And take a look at the cast, the four protagonists, Kim Jong-myung, Kim Tae-hee, Kim so-hyun, and Park Ji-yeon. Among them, Kim Jong-myung and Kim Tae-hee don't say much, no Korean doesn't know these two, and Kim so-hyun also performed extremely well in "Dreamhigh", which can be regarded as a new student with strength, as for Park Ji-yeon...... Uh, anyway, the cast looks like three with one, and it doesn't seem bad!

So looking further down, the banner of the movie turned out to be the last part of the love trilogy directed by Kim Jong-ming...... That's where it gets interesting.

You must know that the two movies directed by Kim Jong-myung before, one is "I Love You" about twilight love, the other is "Those Years" about first love in high school, and this one has Kim Tae-hee and Kim so-hyun, is it about a normal love triangle? But why did Park Ji-yeon look like she was in her teens this year? Could it be that there is still an indecent love?! This is very artistic!

"Shit's indecent love!" Seeing these nonsense speculations, Kim Jong Ming felt the urge to smash his laptop.

"Wood, you're really. Sika, who was sitting on the other side of the sofa, couldn't help but persuade him, or felt that the other party was disturbing his manicure. "What's so angry about this, isn't the more guessed and chaotic it is, the more attention it gets?"

"I'm angry that the level of this year's Korean entertainment media is not enough!" Kim Jong-ming sneered, and then casually closed the computer. "Doesn't anyone think about what Kim Tae-hee said when Ji-yeon debuted?"

Sika didn't bother to pay attention to it this time.

"Forget it, let's not talk about this, ...... ask you something" Jin Zhongming was a little bored. "The day before yesterday was Xu Xian's birthday, right?"

"Hmm. Sika replied lightly. "And then?"

"And then I saw her the morning before yesterday. Jin Zhongming continued. "But she behaved very indifferently throughout the whole process, and didn't mention this matter at all......"

"So what the hell are you trying to say, Wood?" said Sika, deflated, putting down his nail polish. "Let me tell you this, in fact, after we came back that day, we asked Xiaoxian if he wanted to stay for his birthday. But she immediately said that she was going home to celebrate her birthday with her parents, and said that she would take advantage of her birthday to take out all the money she had saved so that her parents could buy a house in Jiangnan, which was a kind of birthday gift in reverse...... It's because of that that that everyone broke up in a hurry, and I also had the emotions because of that. In fact, she hasn't heard from her during the holidays for the past few days, so she should be looking at the house with her parents here in Jiangnan, right?

"Yes. Jin Zhongming nodded convincingly. "But when it comes to the subject...... What about you and Hyo-yeon?"

"It's a lot better. "Sika is just getting a little bit of spirit. "You don't know about her, she's always a little bit second, and her temper comes and goes quickly...... That night I called Taeyeon and Sunny to coax her, and she was in for a treat. ”

"That's good. Jin Zhongming nodded with satisfaction. "In fact, this kind of disputes caused by uneven returns can be found everywhere, but as long as the cake is made bigger, the internal fault tolerance rate will be greatly improved, and the problem will be limited at that time."

"Let's hope so!" Sika still looked a little unenergetic, in fact, those who knew her knew that she was lazy and didn't even want to put on an expression.

"Rest assured. Jin Zhongming really ignored the other party, but mentioned another topic with a smile. "Tara has gone to Japan, and Kara's return in September is just to stabilize her position, and Korea will still belong to you for the second half of the year...... I'll help you add fuel to the fire. ”

"What do you mean?" asked Sika blankly.

"You'll find out in two days. Jin Zhongming smiled slightly, but he was unwilling to say anything more on this topic.

"That's right!" Shortly after resuming her nail work, Sika suddenly remembered something. "Now that Tara has gone to Japan, when will your film start?"

"This movie is special. Jin Zhongming calmly explained. "We need to build a house, so the screenwriter who came from the architecture department has already gone to Jeju Island to find an old house to prepare for construction, and it is estimated that Tara will be able to start filming when he returns from Japan at the end of summer. ”

"Jeju Island house......" Sika looked up thoughtfully. "It's going to be beautiful, isn't it? Wood, buy it after the movie!"

Jin Zhongming glanced up at the other party, but he didn't say nothing. And Sika immediately shifted his interest, probably thinking that the other party had acquiesced.

The next day, that is, on the evening of July 2, a new issue of "Runningman" arrived on time, and the so-called special for high school girls was officially unveiled.

As everyone expected, this episode of the show is not amazing, and the audience can even detect the unfamiliar and immature methods of the program team from the show, but the audience can also perceive the seriousness and hard work of the MCs!

And more importantly, the ratings and the overall rhythm are basically stable! This means that after two episodes of the show, Song Joong Ki's disembarkation still did not produce additional fluctuations after all, and Kim Jong Myung's arrival can be regarded as relying on his popularity and topicality to successfully achieve a seamless connection, and the show "Runningman" still maintains an upward posture - this is very important!

In short, the Korean entertainment industry is like this these days, always moving forward in the summer heat in a lively atmosphere. And that feeling of a girl group boom or a happy entertainment boom can always help people find a summer retreat outside of the irritating Seoul mayoral election.

Every morning, when South Koreans open the newspaper, they usually first see how Ahn Cheol-so beats the whole Korean political arena, and after reading it, they will go directly to the entertainment news.

Seeing which idol group went to Japan today, and which one will return to South Korea tomorrow, in variety shows, which idol has been certified for its foodie attributes, and which MC has aroused public disgust because of improper speech, in what gossip interviews, which actress praised Lee Byung-hun's charm today, and what 'mosaic' statement tomorrow has triggered some conjectures about love breakups.

The days passed like this, not boring, but not shocking.

However, one day in late July, the headlines of Korean entertainment news and even current affairs news were suddenly flooded with a message that all the members of Girls' Generation had received an invitation from Mrs. Lee Myung-bak as representatives of Hallyu culture to visit the Blue House one weekend next month!

Obviously, although the Korean entertainment industry is in a mess like the South Korean political scene because of the butt problem, the Blue House finally recognized the status of the national card of Girls' Generation as the head of state of South Korea!

At the very least, before Lee Myung-bak leaves in January 13, Girls' Generation will be a part of South Korea's national image, and will receive full support and promotion from the government in all career developments!

"What is this?" In the evening, in a villa in Hannam-dong, SK Chairman Choi Tae-won, who was slightly drunk after a busy day, suddenly felt a little pain while watching the nine-o'clock news on the TV. "There was such a big fuss in the first half of the year, but in the second half of the year, this kind of thing was done? A combination of making love movies, resident variety shows, and praising my sister...... He really thinks of himself as an ordinary artist?! He's not afraid that he's going too far in the entertainment industry and will have nothing when he turns around?"

"I think it's a good thing to do. In Choi Tae-won's outer room, the lady who is nicknamed Mrs. Hannam-dong by the whole of Korea is at the kitchen counter next to her, and she is a psychologist by training, and her tone of voice always seems very amiable. "Look at you...... Isn't it now that people have been so hand-wrenched? This is called retreating into advance, and it is also called being hidden in the market. Hiding in the entertainment industry, on the one hand, can make the spotlight shine a clear light on itself, so that everyone can rest assured, on the other hand, everyone can't figure him out, and there is no way to take him...... How nice?"

Choi Tae-won was silent.

"Actually. Glancing at the other party's somewhat lost look, Mrs. Hannam-dong quietly took the initiative to provoke the topic. "I don't really understand why you're staring at him, no grudges, right?"

"Jealous!" Choi Tae-won finally laughed dryly. "I, in the eyes of outsiders, is the head of one of the **** in South Korea, and I am so sharp that I am full of 'domineering' when I talk to the company's employees, so much so that the mocking comics draw me as the image of the navy in "One Piece". But who knows, my life is like a lion in a cage! I don't talk much about bullshit within the family, and I don't talk much about the company's affairs, so I just say that my private life is good -- I can't get married, I can't have children, I can't divorce myself, I don't have any feelings for that woman, but I have to bear political revenge for her family because of the integrity of the company! Do you calculate, since her father became the opposite of history textbooks, which president came to power and didn't blackmail me? If you give more money, you will not be guilty, if you give less, you will be given probation, and if you don't, you will go to prison...... Over the years, just because I am the son-in-law of the dictatorship, I have been prosecuted six times and thrown into prison twice!

"So what?" said the woman gently as she sat down after bringing the decanting soup. "What's the matter with that young man?"

"I envy him so much that he does what he wants. Choi Tae-won gloomily put down the spoon he had just picked up. "Obviously, the road of life is smoother than mine, but it is much more free than me...... That's why I can't help but want to give him a ride while I'm still on top...... Let him turn his head, and preferably eat a mouthful of mud, then I will be much more comfortable. ”

The woman couldn't help but laugh.

"I know it's naΓ―ve. Choi Tae-won replied weakly. "But you have to understand...... The problem now is that I can't even achieve the purpose of mixing him...... This kid isn't fooled!"

"What were you going to do?" asked the woman with her chin crossed and her chin crossed.

"There's never been one way to deal with this kind of flawless young people. Cui Tae-won was convincing and dancing. "Don't try to hit or stab directly, tax audits, scandals or whatever...... Insulting the other party's intelligence and courage, which young man can have such an achievement, which one will have so many flaws? My original design was very simple, while he was riding the wind and waves, slowly picked him up, and when he was fluttering and unable to do anything, suddenly shoveled him from below!"

The woman spread her hands slightly: "And then?"

"Then he suddenly started to stay in variety shows and started making love movies!" Choi Tae-won instantly became powerless. "I took a younger sister to a variety show before, and now I am still praising my sister's combination, and I don't know how much the Blue House ticket for Girls' Generation is worth......?

"But?"

"But whether you have controlled your ambitions, you have to continue to see. If he maintains a competitive posture for his teacher and Song Kanghao in this year's Big Bell Award, then it means that this kid is just pretending to be good, and he is still not satisfied in his heart, then there is still a ...... to play."

"What if not?" the woman continued.

"If not...... I won't waste any time, and maybe I'll be able to fulfill him. Choi Tae-won replied with a slight gloom. "Actually, when you face your face, you don't need to put gold on your face, what is fulfilled is just a good word, really by this time next year, not to mention the listing of Facebook, I have a verbal agreement with him for a share exchange, just say that at that time I will soon have to face the blackmail and revenge of these 'democratically elected presidents', and it is not necessarily a bad thing to properly hand over some fragmentary industries......

"After talking for a long time, you still haven't said what you're going to do. The woman couldn't help but laugh.

"Let's put it this way, if he doesn't make any mistakes by the end of the year, I will sell him the current SK industry in the entertainment industry, that is, Sidushq and Loen's music source websites, at a market price, and ask him to help me in my case in 13 years...... How?" Choi Tae-won asked his lover seriously.

"I don't understand!" the woman shook her head in the same earnestness. "Can't you ask Samsung or Hyundai people to help? Everyone should be sympathetic, right?"

"The cold snap is coming, and everyone has their own things to do. Choi Tae-won picked up the spoon slightly and stirred the decanter soup. "The bigger the family, the more careful we must be, and at this time their role may not be as great as that of a new force...... In the final analysis, I still don't have enough confidence in this wave of 13 years, and Ms. Park is really from the dragon and the tiger this time, and forces from all sides have gathered. But...... Other chaebols can still talk to her, and they can throw money in advance to show goodwill, but I, Lu Taiyu's son-in-law, can only stand aside, and I can't throw money if I want to......"

"Drink the soup. The woman urged helplessly.

"Forget it, I don't believe that Lu Taiyu, an old immortal, is really not dead!" After that, Choi Tae-won shook his head, put down the spoon, and then picked up the whole large bowl and drank the decanting soup in one gulp.

At the same time that Choi Tae-tae was drinking soup in the gentle village, Kim Jong-myung, who had always been very envious and jealous, was sweating profusely on Jeju Island, thousands of miles away, facing spotted mosquitoes flying everywhere, and checking the construction of the set overnight.

In other words, director Li Yongzhou, a screenwriter from the architecture department, had personally ordered an independent old house that was in disrepair and far away from the town, and now he finally completed the layout and decoration himself. Well, this also means that the movie will soon enter the actual shooting stage!
