Chapter 014: Reverie

PS: It's a bit of a cardin, so it's 5.2k in six hours, and I don't want to maliciously water to 6k, so it's not 2-in-1, so there's still a chapter in the night, so there will definitely be compensation in the total number of words!

But it should be after 12 o'clock, so don't wait...... It's time to wash, it's time to sleep, and the rest is just my responsibility.

β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€” Dividing Lineβ€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”

Kim Jong-myung came out of the MBC headquarters and did not go back directly, but turned to the KBS headquarters not far from here, and he wanted to pick up Krystal and go back together. In other words, today Krystal first went to SBS's popular songs in the afternoon, and then went to KBS to record "Riding the Victory", and picking her up at night is something that has been said a long time ago, and it is also a daily life in a sense.

As for the KBS headquarters, Kim Jong-myung, who has been persisting in "Two Days and One Night" for more than two years, is also familiar to the kind that can touch the toilet door with his eyes closed. In fact, he clearly remembered how many tables there were in the KBS headquarters cafeteria, and which of them had peeled paint that looked like a cat because of the time...... The counting table was counted with Jiang Hudong, and the image of the kitten formed by peeling paint was discovered by MC Dream, and then everyone studied it together, which was all boring things done in the boring time before the departure of "Two Days and One Night"......

Hawkers, things are people, nothing more than this.

Okay, let's take our minds back for the time being, no matter what, facing such a familiar place and doing such a daily act in KBS, in short, this should be a normal and casual trip to the extreme.

But in fact, Kim Jong Ming felt a strangeness and helplessness, because from the moment he entered the door, all interpersonal relationships seemed to be adjusting.

When I went to get the pass, the security guard and the front desk lady were quite normal, but there was a bold front desk who took a photo when Jin Zhongming put on the pass, which was actually a very normal reaction, after all, the gap between the two sides is too big, and there is no intersection between them, so what should be done.

Walking on the road, I met some familiar music program staff, no matter what, the huge social status gap was there, these people basically had a little more restraint when they greeted each other, and the kind of greeting that seemed to be as usual was actually pretending to be relaxed, but in fact it was nervous and afraid, and they finally became a lot more rusty.

Entering the elevator, Jin Zhongming met a few more female announcers and producers from the Ministry of Information who were just familiar faces, saying that the two sides were not very familiar at all, really only met a few times when getting on and off the elevator or in the cafeteria, but at this moment, these people have become extremely affectionate, as if they are very familiar, and some people even took the initiative to ask for contact information, but they were all sent away by Su Xiaoya behind him with work contact information...... Hawkers, this kind of behavior does make Kim Jong-ming feel extremely disgusted, because South Korean female announcers, especially KBS female announcers, have a respected status, if they come from Ewha Womans University, then they have always been a candidate for the daughter-in-law of a wealthy family, and they belong to a typical marriage vase, and that group of news producers basically has the identity of political brokers, and this group of people is so affectionate without asking what purpose they have.

However, after getting rid of these people and going upstairs, it will be the territory of the Variety Show Bureau, and the atmosphere here has made Jin Zhongming a lot easier, at least the people here are really familiar, and from the high-level PD and writers to the bottom-level FD and VJ below, they are the kind of people who only have friendship and have no interests to get involved. But even so, everyone's attitude towards him is faintly tentative.

This is really helpless.

There are indeed a lot of helpless annoyances, but Jin Zhongming has expected it, not to mention, there are always some people and things that will not be changed so easily, such as the wide forehead of the little crystal princess...... Even though he obviously noticed that the little princess's mood seemed to be a little wrong, Jin Zhongming still smiled slightly when he saw the other party coming over from a distance.

"Let's take our leave. In the underground parking lot, Victoria took the lead, followed by Luna and Shirley bowing their heads and saying goodbye.

"Be careful on the road. Jin Zhongming waved his hand disapprenosingly. "I brought you some snacks in the car, and I handed them over to Brother Zhu Ying. Eat something, go back and have a good rest and have fun, don't think too much, what should come will always come, can't be in a hurry...... So Ermao, why do you have this expression?"

Speaking of the back, Kim Jong Ming had already turned to Krystal, who had a boring look - as soon as the car started over there, Krystal pulled his face down.

"TARA, 4minute one after another, and then the boy group is also crowding us...... "Krystal is still unhappy that he can't get one by one during his return. "Especially the suppression of the men's group is still very strong......"

"And rightfully so. Jin Zhongming sat in the car disappreliantly. "Girl groups and men's groups don't compare music sources, albums, songs, etc., male fans and female fans are not the same thing...... Besides, isn't there a rainbow crushed under you?"

Krystal lowered her head and sat in the car, but her mood was still not high, she was now feeling more and more stressed, the same S.M's group, they really rushed to grandma's house......

"Wood, do you think we still have a glimmer of hope?" Krystal couldn't bear to stay in his fussy car for a few minutes. "The biggest family, 2pm, is coming to an end soon, and Tara's wave of songs is over, but if you compete with 4Minute and Rainbow, will there be a glimmer of hope?"

"No!" Kim replied coldly. "Next week, a girl group called SISTAR will officially debut, I guess it's the real newcomer king this year, and maybe you'll step on your three 09 girl groups to reach the top directly. Speaking of which, Jin Zhongming was also a little helpless. "Anyway, you don't lack people, it's estimated that they are not the opponents of SISTAR and 4minute, and now that Little A is not there, what are you going to fight? And to be honest, after kara comes to our CUBE, DSP can also tilt resources on rainbow, and Jin Zhijing also performs very well in "dreamhigh", if even rainbow can't suppress you at that time, it will be really embarrassing......"

Krystal reclined in the back seat of the car with complete weakness.

"The girl group is in its prime. Kim Jongming glanced at Krystal, but he didn't know how to comfort the other party, so he could only sigh, and then turned his head to look out the car window at the night of Seoul, which was lively because of the arrival of night, which is the most prosperous Yeouido Island in South Korea, the most economically valuable piece of land in South Korea, and the representative of South Korea's economic prosperity!

And the situation in front of him, Krystal's complaints, and the previous interview in MBC, all made Jin Zhongming's mind fluctuate with the flashing lights outside the car.

Since 09 to the present, the concept of the girl group is really not just a concept.

First of all, Girls' Generation swept everything with "GEE", laying the most basic voice for this era. In the following year, countless girl groups were born in the Korean market, among them, there are as many as 7 09 girl groups that have gained a firm foothold and rushed out of their own path, namely 2ne1, f(x), 4minute, T-ara, AfterSchool, Secret, and Rainbow. And these 7 girl groups all have their own characteristics and different styles, not to mention that they have all passed the rookie period, completed the break-even and started to make profits, and this is the so-called high-quality girl group.

That's right, even FX hasn't gotten one, but due to the excellent management of S.M and its huge fan base, they have now begun to make a profit, and even DSP's rainbow has a faint meaning of gaining a foothold in advance under the impetus of their own mistakes......

Behind this booming economic income is the Korean government's increasingly liberal and continuous Hallyu cultural strategy, the market potential after the economic recovery began in 09, the increasingly turbulent political situation in Northeast Asia and the escape of Koreans under various heavy life pressures, and the deep capacity of the entertainment market of the two economic powers next door.

In short, no matter how complex the specific reasons are, the economic potential and cultural publicity value of the girl group market have indeed become more and more great.

As a result, looking at such a hot girl group market, more and more capital has gone down, and more and more producers and economic companies have begun to try to launch their own girl groups. Less than half of the 10 years, Kim Jong Myung has heard some familiar names from various places, and SISTAR is just one of them - soon JYP will also let missA appear after Suzy's warm-up.

Not only that, but the other two members of the 07 girl group have also completed nirvana in this bustling market, and KARA has almost established itself with a jaw-dropping speed and popularity, and they have even left Girls' Generation behind in terms of economic benefits and personal income alone. And wondergirl came back from the United States, and once thought that she had been reduced to the point where no one cared, but the activity of testing the water attracted a large number of die-hard fans of the original 07 generation of girl groups, and they didn't expect to go back to the past, but at least they regained their foothold......

"Wood...... What are you thinking?" suddenly came Krystal with a tentative inquiry behind him.

"I'm thinking...... Do you want Korean brokerage companies to form a real silent cartel, unify the time and number of returns of these girl and boy groups to the market, and then, when there is a problem, I will be the arbiter of the entire Korean entertainment market!" Kim Jong Ming replied without replying.

KrystalοΌšβ€œβ€¦β€¦β€

"Sorry, I lost my words. Jin Zhongming turned around and flicked the other party's head. "It's a bit too much...... Don't tell anyone. ”

"Why do you want to knock me if you think about it too much?"

"Just to hide my panic, I casually said such a big conspiracy. Jin Zhongming spread his hands.

"Doesn't that sound good?" said Krystal, puzzled. "Avoid vicious competition and maximize the interests of all......"

"But there are definitely companies that think they are good, that they can eat it all, that they think they are ...... There is no need to follow the rules. Kim Jong-ming's eyes looked out of Krystal's window, and in the distance, a beautiful landmark building was constantly flickering with LED light...... That's the Seoul Tower operated by CJ.

Krystal nodded: "I know, and there are certainly people who will not be convinced, and they want to steal your position as arbiter." ”

"And that's not all. Jin Zhongming looked at the lights in front of the car. "This kind of integration needs to touch the interests of too many companies above the average because they don't want to give up their advantages, so it's good for everyone, but it's actually hard to do. ”

"What then?" Krystal continued.

"First of all. Kim Jong-ming set his eyes on Krystal's head. "I didn't expect to be able to do this all at once, this kind of thing requires opportunity and prestige accumulated over a long period of time, and it also needs to master a lot of industry resources...... Hawkers, it's not a year or two anyway. ”

Krystal is really smart, not fake smart, she immediately thought of her brother's recent variety shows......

"Of course, you can't just do nothing and wait here for your chance. Jin Zhongming continued to explain calmly, causing Su Xiaoya and Jia Chao in front of him to prick up their ears. "On the other hand, for small companies, they must be desperate to have such an organization to protect their interests, and they want to have a strong person to support them. Because in South Korea's economic model, eating big and eating small is almost a normal thing, and it is very common to work hard to sit up the business, but encounter unfair competition and suppression, or even hostile takeovers, in fact, if I didn't have the business in the United States, CUEB in Busan and Seoul would have been swallowed up a long time ago......"

"Is that a TV drama league?" Krystal thought of something more.

"yes. Jin Zhongming nodded. "But it's not enough...... However, the gathering of small companies in that alliance is itself a demonstration of attitude...... Well, take your time!"

Krystal nodded, and stopped talking, just now she just saw her brother staring out the window in a daze before she followed a few questions, intending to liven up the atmosphere, but in fact, there was still something in her own heart, so it wouldn't be long before someone could hang an oil bottle on the corner of their mouth again.

"Then, Ermao!" Jin Zhongming looked at the girl, and then suddenly spoke.

"Huh?" Krystal replied, puzzled. "What?"

Jin Zhongming stared at Krystal with a slight smile: "You tell me the truth, what are you angry about today? I can understand that not being able to get one to leave the team with Xiao A makes you feel bad overall, but you are not the kind of person who has been worried about everything for a hundred years, to be honest, it is because my exposure on the show has caused everyone to be wary of you and have a bad reaction?"

"No!" replied Krystal wistly. "I never care about people I don't know and don't know, anyway, I've always kept a cold face on them!"

"That's right!" Jin Zhongming was a little weak. "I won't say much about your schizophrenia symptoms, let's talk about dry goods, who is it or what is it that upsets you?"

"It's Shirley, she's always been weird about me lately!" Krystal replied with a not so much unexpected answer.

"She was jealous. Jin Zhongming sighed lightly. "I noticed early on that she lives alone in Seoul with her family in Busan, and has always been envious of me and Sika being around you and you and you can often go home to see your parents. It's just that you didn't have any interests when you didn't debut at the beginning, and you were all very young...... So at that time it could only be called envy. ”

"And now?" said Krystal, still with that grimaceous expression. "After her debut, her popularity is higher than mine, is she the real popularity king of the team...... Why is it still like that?"

"The scariest thing about jealousy is that it's more ......," Kim replied thoughtfully. "After her debut, she became popular, and that time may be the most satisfying, but soon some of your brilliant performances will make her who is slightly in front of her become particularly sensitive. If you still have some obvious overtaking and suppression at this time, it will make her feel twice as unhappy, for example, today she should have found out that her popularity may never have a substantial effect on you, because you don't need to care about popularity......"

Krystal pouted again, in the final analysis, after all, she is just a 16-year-old junior high school student, even if she debuts for more than half a year, but this little emotion is almost written on her face, not to mention that there are no outsiders here.

"It's a human affection. Jin Zhongming didn't know how to say or comfort him. "It's good if you're not humble or arrogant, you're still young, you don't know how long you've been together, if you really don't feel like it's okay, just tell Victoria, she's much older than you, and she's as alone as Shirley, maybe Shirley will listen to her." ”

Krystal could only nod weakly.

As he spoke, the car had already arrived at the Apguting area where the S.M company and his residence were located, but he stopped helplessly.

"Is there a traffic jam?" Jin Zhongming was angry.

"Apgull Pavilion at seven o'clock on Sunday night, but the most terrible thing is the East Lake Bridge!" Jia Chao, who was driving, also wilted. "I don't know how long I'll have to wait......"

"Ermao has class tomorrow, so I'm going to pick her up......" Jin Zhongming thought for a moment. "But you haven't eaten yet, have you?"

Krystal immediately nodded vigorously.

"We didn't eat either, so we went around to Cheongdam Cave to eat. Jin Zhongming thought of a good way. "After eating, it is estimated that it will not be blocked!"

Everyone nodded convincingly, this was indeed the best way to do it.

In this way, the old-fashioned modern car turned slightly around to the intersection with few vehicles in the south, and after a while, the car appeared in front of a French Western restaurant on the side of a hole in Cheongdam - Krystal, who was in a bad mood, suddenly shouted that he wanted to eat the legendary French snail, and although Jin Zhongming did not catch a cold, he still brought her with him.

"Oppa, why are you here?"

After walking into the restaurant, Jin Zhongming and his party just sat down casually, and a slightly surprised voice sounded behind them - in other words, the owner of the voice was a familiar person who couldn't be more familiar.
