Chapter 168: Endless August—Sunny
"Didn't my daughter return to China? Recently, I've been pestering me to do something, I" Elder Jin Tai blushed and quickly explained.
"And then, you can't go to play with your daughter at this critical juncture, right?" Cai Jimin was even more speechless.
"It doesn't matter, I'll solve the problem in two minutes. Kim Tae-won made a gesture, and everyone had to wait helplessly for him to finish the call.
The phone rang, and it was Kim Tae-won, and Kim Jong-myung, who was about to play a game, answered the phone before he could get out of the car.
"Youbo-You-You?"
"Hey, Zhong Ming, I'm your senior brother. ”
"And then, what's the matter?" asked Jin Zhongming with some annoyance.
"Do you have time these days?"
"No, it's going to be busy!"
"Busy with what?"
"I'm going to take my two younger sisters and one of our younger sisters to Busan for the music festival. ”
"Are you going to play, going on a trip?" Kim Tae-won's voice became higher.
"yes, is there a problem?"
"No, but can you bring one more person with you? Even if it's your senior brother, I'll be paid for helping you write songs. ”
"Can I refuse if you say that? It's Chris! I'm leaving tomorrow, get her ready, I'll pick her up tomorrow morning. ”
Hanging up the phone, Kim Jong-ming didn't care, still put on a hat and sunglasses and got out of the car and walked towards the game machine hall, after all, it's just a matter of one more person and one less person, so it's really good to repay Kim Tae-won's songs.
Pushing open the door of the game machine hall, Jin Zhongming was surprised to find that there was a familiar little man sitting in the corner of the machine seat where he often stayed.
"Aren't you grounded?" Jin Zhongming took a box of game currency and sat over. Then he asked nonchalantly.
"The ban has been lifted. Sunny's answer was as crisp as usual. But there is an indescribable negative emotion mixed in with it. "Fight a few games with me!"
"Good!" Kim Jong Ming chuckled in his heart. But it didn't show itself.
"Have you been idle lately?" After ten rounds, the time had gone from half past three in the afternoon to half past five, and Jin Zhongming began to tentatively understand the situation.
"So-so!" Sunny's words are full of feelings of rejection.
"Me"
"Ah, it's idle, what's wrong?"
Kim Jong Ming wanted to continue the topic, but was robbed by Sunny.
"Feeling bad?"
"Hmm. ”
"Are you going to eat? I'll invite you to eat ribs. ”
"I don't want to go. Sunny hung his head down on his erect knees.
"It's the first time I've seen you cry. Looking at the drop of water dripping on the floor, Kim Jong Ming tried to squeeze out a smile.
"Laugh if you want!" Sunny looked up and his eyes were completely red.
"Why am I laughing?" Kim Jong-ming tried to suppress his impulse, and what he saw and heard in the afternoon at S.M. and the current scene made him want to stand up and tell the other party. Let's go, go to your uncle's company, there are eight people waiting for you!But how could you say such a thing when Sunny himself was confused? After all, he was not a savior, just a friend he met while playing games.
"I can't get out of the way. Sunny exhaled a few times, no longer crying, hugging her knees as if she was talking about something that had nothing to do with her.
"And then, what are your plans?" Jin Zhongming sorted out the game currency box in his hand, and seemed a little careless.
"My dad's company is going out of business, and the only combination of the company that can make money no longer exists. Sunny didn't even listen to what Kim Jong Ming said, just talked to himself. She needed someone to talk to.
"Suger, the most successful foreign artist in Korea, Ayumi's group. Jin Zhongming raised his head and thought about Suger's information. This combination is undoubtedly very successful, and it is normal for a small brokerage to feed a small company with a non-popular combination, but Suger seems to be too successful. Since last year, Ayumi has performed well in various variety shows, and the other three have stabilized their positions in film and television dramas without exception, during the period when ses disappeared and WG did not come out, they already had a faint temperament of a Korean women's national group, which doesn't seem to be a very good thing for Sunny's father's company, in fact, Huang Jingyin, who took the lead in Mingtang in 04, has taken the lead in leaving, but I didn't imagine that this kind of thing would happen again now.
"Park so-jin flew solo in April this year. Sunny continued to talk to himself. "She was poached by IHQ. ”
"Do you blame her?" Jin Zhongming asked lightly, and looked around by the way, there were a lot of people in the game machine hall during the summer vacation, but he and Sunny were both regular customers, and this location was still relatively hidden, so no one noticed that there was a girl with tears here.
Sunny shook his head and said no, "No wonder, I didn't have a good relationship with her before, but now I can accept it." IHQ is a big company, and if she goes, she will become the same junior sister of Jeon Ji-hyun, Song Hye Kyo, Cha Tae-hyun, Song Seung-heon, Kong Yoo-ri, Sung Yoo-ri, and Lim so-kyung, and she can also change from idol to actor, she has no reason to refuse. ”
"It's rare for you to remember so many names. ”
"This is the original words of the people from IHQ Company, they still want to train Park so-jin to be the second in Han Jiaren. ”
"As soon as you say that, I remember, it's just Baeksang about what happened after that, right? I was filming in Gangwon-do at the time, and I heard Lee Joon-gi from the visiting class talk about these things, but this is pure nonsense, an actor of Han Jiaren's level is not 'created', it depends on luck and my own efforts. ”
"I haven't congratulated you on winning the award, and there are new movies that I read on the news that I can win the award. ”
"Well, thank you. ”
"Did you just say that the vase also has to work hard?"
Jin Zhongming glanced at Sunny, who was no longer crying, and was speechless, didn't you just say that you were not good at others? Why did you characterize other people's life goals as vases?" The vase also has to work hard. At least a vase like Han Jiaren can't work hard. ”
"Oh!"
"Park so-jin is also Suger's second. Second only to Ayumi in popularity or anything, she is gone, and Suger has actually finished the calculation, right? No wonder he was not in a good mood when he saw your father that day, and IHQ should have contacted her by that time. Kim Jong-ming redirected the topic back to the original track, since he wanted to talk about it, he would say enough, and giving up halfway would deepen his sense of worry.
"That's right, since she left in April, the company has completely gone sour, and not only Suger. Everything else went wrong. Sunny was emotionally aroused by Kim's words and continued the confession.
"Then your father had no choice but to pull out the most popular Ayumi alone, hoping that the solo form can keep Ayumi, right?" Kim Jong-ming recalled some entertainment news.
"That's right, but"
"But what? I remember that Ayumi's solo in June was very well received. ”
"I still lost, just happened to meet TVXQ's comeback, although the reputation is good, but the space of the girl group has been further compressed, and the commercial performances and everything are gone, so the company's financial problems are getting bigger and bigger, and the remaining two people can't support the name of Suger, and they can't make money at all. In addition, the contract with the Japanese company expires this year, and the other party is not optimistic about the prospects of Suger. So"
"So there is no renewal of the contract, and Suger has lost the largest market, and now there is only a matter of time left before the final collapse of the company, and the debut of your new group is even more hopeless, isn't it?"
"I'm sorry to tell you so much. Sunny started wiping tears from her eyes again, and it was a very hard hit.
"When did you start practicing?" Kim Jong Ming seemed to think that Sunny hadn't cried enough.
"'97"
"It's been nine years. Kim Jong-myung looked at Sunny, who was detonated by this sentence and cried out completely, and was slightly relieved. "My sister has only been training for 6 years and I thought she was a long time. ”
Sunny cried even more sadly, this was not like her personality at all, and even the boss, who noticed the situation here, glared angrily at Kim Jong-ming, who was sitting next to the little girl and remained 'indifferent'.
The crying lasted for five or six minutes before stopping intermittently, the cicadas chirped from somewhere outside the house, and the plastic rope tied to the air conditioner was rolled up by the cold wind and kept spinning in the air.
"Thank you for listening to me talk so much nonsense, it's time for me to go back. Sunny took out a tissue and carefully wiped his already crying face, and was ready to leave.
"How are you feeling now?"
"Much better. ”
"Our conversation is really like in the TV series, you are like a lovelorn woman and I am like your male best friend. ”
"Well, it's very similar. ”
"Do you have any plans?"
"Dad said he would hold out until the last minute, and leave the family until the family ran out of money, and we still have a house in the United States. ”
"Have you ever thought about practicing with another company?"
"No!" Sunny replied firmly as he met Kim Jong-ming's eyes. "Shunhui and the others just left, I don't have this mind, I am ready to go back to the United States with my father. ”
"Okay!" Jin Zhongming nodded. "Do you have the heart to go to Busan? The Busan Music Festival is about to open. ”
"Where are you going?"
"Play the bass, play for me, I'll keep your bass for you. Jin Zhongming replied calmly, but his eyes lit up. "Renting a stage in a corner is the kind that no one wants, a few friends don't care about what audience or expert, they can pick up an instrument and play it by themselves, dance as much as they want, and sing how they want. ”
"Aren't you the one who is about to release an album? It's been said on the news, how can a talented person who writes and composes his own lyrics and music want to go crazy?"
"It's because I'm about to release an album that I want to play like this, because after the album comes out, I can't sing like this on the open-air stage anymore, and even my music leader, the Rose Hotel Band, has never sung on Hongdae Art Street since they became famous. ”
"I don't quite understand. Sunny frowned.
"I've never been the kind of person who can give up everything for the sake of art, after I release an album, I will be regarded as a singer, and then I will care about other people's comments and ideas, and then it will be difficult to sing without being in tune. ”
"It's kind of like a pre-wedding party!"
"That's right, come on, it's convenient with my sister. ”
"Well, though, I didn't expect that one day I'd go on a trip with a man I didn't know well. ”
"It's not a trip, it's just a pleasure. I know what you're worried about, but there are serious sexual implications for a man and a woman traveling in Korea. ”
"What a shame!"
