Chapter 226 took a sharp turn
The completion of this particular stage of Tara is extremely poor...... This is a matter of course, after all, not to mention that their level is not very high, and there is one less person at the moment, and most of the members are preoccupied, so forgetting the words and jumping the wrong mistakes, it can almost be called a performance accident!
In fact, the KBS Variety Bureau unceremoniously released a public statement that night, accusing the group of TARA's lack of professional quality......
Although it had been expected, CCM had to be patient to apologize, apologize, apologize, and deal with the reporters gathered around the TV station in a hurry, and then returned to the company and arranged for the six tara to go back to their residences. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Then, in the evening, the same 20 CCM staff in charge of tara, another round of meetings were held. However, Kim Kwang-so, who was sitting in the first place, was no longer the red face he had last time, and his face was as black as the bottom of a pot at this time, so he almost went through the motions, and the matter of expelling Liu Huaying from the team had already been decided.
But that's not the end of the story...... Although Liu Huaying has repeatedly touched the bottom line of public and private morality in the industry, and the expulsion is recognized by everyone, but then?
Now South Korea's online public opinion is one-sided, and I don't know how to deal with it.
"The key is to figure out who is against us......" After things came to the worst, Kim Kwang-so had a hint of momentum at the moment. "First of all, S.M company Li Xiuman's old bastard is indispensable, and he must be the leader, get rid of our tara, they will be as stable as Mount Tai when they are young!"
"JYP should have been involved as well. Someone instinctively took a sip. "I can't forget the embarrassment when I competed for the heroine in the previous movie, how could that Suzy not be jealous of Ji-yeon's popularity......"
YG's case seems to be possible. Someone else interjected. "We collided head-on with 2NE1 last year......"
"You can't list it like that. Finally, there are old people who can't help but refute it. "In fact, as long as there is a company in the girl group, there is no reason not to fall into the ground in this wave, so let's just think about who may not start...... I mean, CUBE shouldn't have done anything this time, right?"
"Hey. Kim Kwang-so was stunned for a moment, then immediately nodded, and then suddenly stunned, because after following this line of thought, he found that except for the cube that would save Kim Jong-myung's face, and his own CJ department, it seemed that no one else had any reason not to go against his company...... On weekdays, I do grab food a little too much!
"It's still necessary to catch the lead. Others quickly discovered this embarrassing situation, so they put forward an idea half for the president to relieve the siege and half helplessly. "Hold on to the three biggest companies, S.M, JYP, and YG, and follow their lines to intercept and buy the media, and talk about what is supposed to be down, and talk about the stubborn...... I have to ask the head office to help!"
"yes. Someone next to him immediately chimed in. "It's time to move or to move......"
Kim Kwang-so immediately thought of Lee so-man, who he hated so much, and he seemed to have no way to deal with that guy, unless he made another wave of S.M from the entertainment aircraft carrier MNET, making the other party feel painful and unworthy, it is estimated that it is possible to force the other party to stop. Of course, if you really have a big face, invite Lee Jae-hyun out, and then make a phone call, it is estimated that the other party will also be instigated.
But if you don't clean up the weeds around you, will you be embarrassed to ask someone to come forward?
"But shouldn't you stick to a wave at this time?" Just as Kim Kwang-so's mind was spinning, someone also raised an objection uneasily. "To be honest, in the form in front of me, I don't know in what direction public opinion will develop next......"
"Offense is the best defense. Kim Kwang-so finally took the opportunity to slap the table. "The key is two, one is the deep-seated kind, who gets rid of people like Li Xiuman, and the other is to seize those who take the lead on the Internet and fight back fiercely on both sides at the same time......."
Okay, the leader has set the strategy, and it sounds like a set, and of course the others have nothing to say.
At noon the next day, the CCM company released the news of Liu Huaying's departure on time, and public opinion really set off a new round of doubts as imagined! However, what caught CCM off guard was that this round of public opinion guidance, whether it was the scale or intensity, was completely out of control!
There are probably many reasons for this, but if you think about it, there are probably a few:
First of all, CCM once again ignored Liu Huaying's personal 'role'...... Uh, to be honest, they still lack understanding of Liu Huaying so far, so I really don't know how to evaluate it.
In short, after the company announced the news at one o'clock, Liu Huaying and her sister Liu Xiaoying began to interact on Twitter before two o'clock...... One question and one answer, one anger and one mourning, a sister who was upset for her sister, a sister who was so aggrieved that she couldn't speak, the performance and cooperation were perfect, and it instantly aroused the sympathy of all netizens again.
The second one is probably the complex rebellion and herd mentality of netizens.
For example, obviously everyone was already on Liu Huaying's side yesterday, no matter what was in it, maybe I vaguely felt that flies don't bite eggs, but you let her quit the team every other day, no matter how you think about it, you feel that you are slapping me in the face?!
For example, I don't even know what TARA, but idol, the kind that makes money with his face, makes me angry when I think about it. And some idol fans on the Internet are always unpleasant, I once saw a brain-dead fan...... Although it's the fairy queen, aren't they all the same thing? In short, I'm going to kill you today!
In addition, there is another important reason behind the sudden outburst...... That is, the entire pan-entertainment industry has followed.
You must know that the entertainment industry has never been just an entertainment circle for artists, TV station PDs, entertainment reporters, composers, magazine editors, photographers, out-of-fashion announcement artists, funny MCs, and even current political news commentators and Internet celebrities and even trainees...... Theoretically, as long as you rely on popularity, you can basically be called a figure in the entertainment industry.
In the past, these people were just beating the side drums, putting on a seemingly fair position to evaluate the incident and attract attention. But as a large number of people on the Internet stand firm, these people will naturally follow the public opinion in a variety of ways!
Some Internet celebrities began to photoshop pictures, saying that Enjing suddenly spoke and admitted that she was isolating Liu Huaying, but deleted it in seconds;
There are also people who claim to be CCM trainees, who posted a large number of internal photos of the company and broke the news that they saw Zhiyan slap Liu Huaying with their own eyes;
There are also the original members of the group S#arp, who just disbanded because of infighting, capitalized chicken soup on the Internet, interacted with Liu Huaying, and complained to each other about pity;
Some people also began to sort out all the images of Tara, intending to sort out the evidence of Liu Huaying's isolation;
There are also people who claim to be dancers with tara and Davichi, who began to talk at length, trying to write a four-million-word "tara revelations" with 9 heroines!
In short, it's a bit of a demon dance!
However, it is worth noting that in fact, not only these strange people who are obviously in the popularity of consumption events are active, but their really weighty pan-entertainment industry peers have also begun to move strangely.
In all fairness, Tara has a lot of righteous friends...... Sunny unceremoniously expressed his support for Hyo-min, Ahn Jae-min, a veteran actor who had worked with Eun-jeong, also made it clear from the beginning that he thought that Eun-jeong he knew was an absolutely good girl, and even the newly formed "Five Fingers" crew maintained a supportive attitude in the face of thousands of messages asking for Eun Jeong's replacement.
As for a large number of other influential colleagues in the entertainment industry, until the evening of April 14, they still maintained a certain kind of fair or helpless silence.
But after a night of interval, early on the morning of April 15, the wind direction changed abruptly.
Ahn Jae-min publicly apologized on Twitter and deleted his supportive remarks; although Sunny's Twitter was not deleted, it also disappeared like the female idols of other companies (of course, some people claimed to have seen Sunny appear in the downstairs of Hyo-min's apartment the night before, and then never came out); and then the crew of "Five Fingers" also suddenly announced that they would respond to the public's demand to remove Eun-jeong's role!
At the same time, a pd of SBS clearly stood up early in the morning to express his sympathy for Liu Huaying, and at the same time unceremoniously said that his show would not invite Tara to star again. Immediately, an MBC program PD who was on strike also took the opportunity to express his support for the previous PD.
And in the morning, a real eyelid jump, a member of parliament from the opposition camp discussed the matter on social media with an absolute stance, and his theme was against the bullying of the majority against the minority!
However, at noon, something even more frightening appeared, Daewoo Securities, a heavyweight company, suddenly took the initiative to withdraw Eunjing's endorsement without any warning! The reason was that they felt that TARA's image was no longer qualified to support the responsibility of endorsement.
This was followed by the Combat Volunteer Police, who had just signed an endorsement contract...... This paramilitary organization with a public welfare nature also withdrew the endorsement of tara, and at the same time, the new spokesperson was selected in a hasty but subtle way - Krystal, Zheng Xiujing, Kim Jong-myung's sister, and an artist of S.M!
Even in the afternoon, there was news that in a KBS variety show that had just finished recording but had not yet aired, an MC publicly mocked tara for not understanding the social responsibility of idol groups...... What's even more terrifying is that this kind of remarks were not edited by the TV station, just waiting for it to start broadcasting in two days.
The three major TV stations, politicians, TV production companies, large enterprises, and Ahn Jaemin's affairs seem to be individuals who can't stand the condemnation of netizens, but they also hint at a very terrible thing, that is, the category of artists who were previously reminded and suppressed has spread from idol to actors with a higher degree of freedom.
To tell the truth, at this time, Kim Kwang-so already had a feeling that he had lost his ability to think, not that he couldn't figure it out, but that the more he thought about it, the more scared he became! Because things are not the same thing at all every day compared to the day before! Those Internet celebrities, those people who are obviously fake and rhythmic, he knows what kind of routine they are at a glance, in fact, he has already sent people to follow the vine and touch melons to prepare to kill chickens and monkeys! But today's people, these things, these institutions...... He couldn't handle it!
Otherwise, the three major TV stations will fight together? Daewoo Securities is a company that can speak for itself? Whose executive order is behind this Nima, a combat volunteer policeman? And that congressman...... There are a total of 300 members of the National Assembly in South Korea, although there are a lot of wonders, but they are by no means cats and dogs!
IN THE HAZE, KIM KWANG-SO SENSED A LARGE STURDY NET THAT WAS ENVELOPING HIM, CCM, AND TARA. But what makes people feel frightened and powerless is that he can't even deduce who the owner of this net is! So the only thing he can do now is to climb out while the net has just fallen!
That's all.
"Let's start with the first thing. In the evening, in the conference room, Kim Kwang-so's hair was scattered, his eyes were red, and his mental state was obviously no longer good, and the relevant staff of the surrounding TARA, and even the TARA, who came to the meeting together, were basically haggard. "It would be unwise to continue the event until the suspension of the event is officially announced and all kinds of unbearable rumors are resolved. And except for the current TV series of their respective members, there is no need to do anything else, and even on the set, they must try to keep a low profile......"
Extremely tired and staring blankly, So-yeon couldn't help but stare at Kim Kwang-so a few more times.
"The second thing. Kim Kwang-so looked around, then gritted his teeth and analyzed. "Today's wave is very violent, but we have to express a certain attitude, otherwise tomorrow and then it will be really out of control......
A lot of people nodded their heads.
"So I decided. Kim Kwang-so stopped his gaze on Eun Jeong. "Immediately express the worst protest to the crew of "Five Fingers", and will mobilize my contacts in some performing arts associations......"
"I'm against it. Eun Jing raised her head unexpectedly, although she was full of powerlessness in her body and mind, something from the depths of her personality was still supporting her. "Although I don't understand why the crew suddenly chose to replace me, it is clear that the producer has some irresistible ...... He was still expressing his support for me yesterday, and he has done his duty!"
"I know. Kim Kwang-so replied awkwardly. "But Enjing, you tell me, in today's situation, if we don't take a tough stance against a crew, who can we say a tough stance to? Daewoo Securities is still a combat volunteer policeman? Or are those three people who seem to be very simple but have three major TV stations behind them? "Five Fingers" is just a crew after all, and protesting to a crew in the name of the association is probably the only way we can express our stance now......
"This is called bullying the weak and fearing the hard. Eun Jing immediately peeled off the other party's old face.
"Yes, and then?" Kim Kwang-so asked helplessly. "If you don't bully the weak and fear the hard, you can only sit back and watch the situation deteriorate out of control, right?"
Eun Jing was speechless, raised her head and stretched out her hand to cover her face, but her nose was sore, and she almost cried.
Zhao Yan turned her head to look at Eun Jing, then looked back at Kim Kwang-so again, still with a straight face and did not speak. In a sense, after recognizing Kim Kwang-so's level and actual situation, she became the old fritter in Juli's complaint.
"That's it. Kim Kwang-so continued to make a decision, as crisp as he had in previous meetings. "Moving on, there is one more important thing to talk about, that is, Liu Huaying. After all, the root of the matter lies with her, six to one, which naturally makes people want to sympathize, but if some of her faces can be exposed, it should fundamentally alleviate the situation......"
"It's long overdue!" many people couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"I wanted to take care of my feelings before. Kim Kwang-so couldn't help but sigh. "But she let me down again and again, and her performances became more and more out of line. Then if that's the case, don't show mercy. First of all, let's announce the information that she refused to go on stage that day, which can be regarded as an explanation of the reason for her withdrawal from the team. ”
"Yes. "The staff responsible for disseminating the information was in good spirits. "Do it right away. ”
"Then, Zongxian, you can contact Liu Huaying now, oh, and Liu Xiaoying, and ask them to come to the company tomorrow. Kim Kwang-so continued to explain with a calm face. "The purpose of coming here is naturally to ask them to cooperate with us to solve this matter. And now Zong Xian, you can tell them on the phone, if they don't come or don't cooperate, then their threatening text messages to Li Yalin will be officially announced!
"Bang bang...... Bang bang bang ......"
Suddenly, someone applauded, and then there was a round of applause, and it was clear that the pressure on everyone had reached a certain limit.
So, almost immediately, the person in charge of the information began to act, and the secretary began to try to write a protest statement against the crew of "Five Fingers", while more people stared at Park Jong-hyun, who was standing by the window holding up the phone.
"How's it going?" Kim Kwang-so asked impatiently after the long, unnutritious phone call.
She said a lot of nonsense, but there was still a clear feeling of panic and weakness. Park Jong-hyun sneered and put away his phone. "So I promised to come and talk to you tomorrow morning......"
"That's good. ”
"I can finally catch my breath!"
The atmosphere in the conference room immediately became a lot more relaxed, and even Bao Lan, Ji Yeon, and Hyo Min, who maintained a sense of panic, as well as Ju Li, Eun Jing, and Zhao Yan, who were as calm as water, also felt a lot more relaxed.
The threat to a minor, clear evidence, will undoubtedly fundamentally ruin the image of the weak that the two Liu Huaying sisters have always relied on, and in this way, almost most of the public opinion will also dissipate.
And everyone in the conference room hasn't been able to relax for two minutes, the explanation about Liu Huaying's refusal to go on stage has just pressed the send button, but the phone in Kim Kwang-so's arms over there has also suddenly rang...... To be honest, at this time, everyone was already a little bit of a cup, almost immediately, and everyone became nervous!
After taking out his mobile phone, Kim Kwang-so also chuckled in his heart, the phone turned out to be Cha Eun-taek's. Frankly speaking, thinking of Cha Eunze's previous malice in the Li Yalin incident, as well as the timing of this phone call, President Kim Dae obviously felt a little sweaty.
"Youbo-You-You?"
"Youbo Xiyou, President Kim, I'm Cha Eunze. The voice on the other end of the phone was undoubtedly Cha Eunze himself.
"Director Che, I really didn't expect it to be you...... Is there anything going on at this time?" Kim Kwang-so felt a little cautious.
"That's right. Cha Enze's voice seemed very warm. "I've seen all these things that the children have encountered recently, and to be honest, it's very sad. After all, I've been with them for so long, and I still know what their character is, so I just tweeted to defend them. Please take a look at it and see if it will have an impact on the children or your PR strategy. If it's not good, I can cut it down. ”
Kim Kwang-so was slightly stunned, could this Nima himself be a dog biting Lu Dongbin, and he didn't know the hearts of good people?!, and almost immediately, under his command, Cha Eunze's Twitter was found and placed in front of his eyes.
In other words, although the director's words on Twitter were very tactful, he still publicly defended Tara and named Eun Jing. And at this moment, not only Kim Kwang-so, but everyone in the conference room who is circulating this tweet is very grateful, after all, this is the first heavyweight to speak out to defend Tara, and at this time period, it is really a feeling of charcoal in the snow!
As soon as he thought of this, Kim Kwang-so couldn't help but have a hint of shame in his tone: "It's really ...... Director Cha Enze, I don't thank you for this matter!"
"What is this?" Che Enze on the other end of the phone chuckled, seemingly completely unimpressed. "But I want to say more, your company has too much appetite on weekdays, I don't know how many big and small people you have offended, and the public relations performance these days is even more useless...... Well, President Kim won't think I'm talking too much, right?"
"How so?" Kim Kwang-so smiled bitterly. "Actually, what you said is not wrong at all, the huge South Korea does not even have a person who is willing to speak up for us, this is indeed a lack of our daily practice, and today's public relations strategy is also reflecting on ......"
"It's good that you understand. Cha Eun-taek's tone suddenly became serious. "In that case, please don't continue to offend people! If you really anger some really great people again, then President Jin, you are really doomed!"
The words suddenly changed, and Kim Kwang-so was at a loss: "This, what does this mean......? Who is it...... And what?"
"It's not recently, it's before, specifically Councillor Luo Qingyuan. Cha Eun-taek's tone became calm and indifferent. "I just learned that Councilor Luo has a lot of opinions about you, your company, and TARA, obviously everyone got along so well before, but the Seoul mayoral election failed, you turned around and went to attach to Ren Taixi, put it on the political field, this is called a traitor, the kind that will be killed at any cost!"
Kim Kwang-so gasped, he understood that what he feared most had finally come.
"However, Congressman Luo Qingyuan also understands that the children just obey orders, in fact, she got along very well with the members during that time, so she will let your company be so presumptuous. Cha Eun-taek continued to tell without emotion like a robot. And she also said that whether it is Hua Ying or Zhao Yan, they are all children she likes very much, and although it makes people feel helpless to get to this point, she really doesn't want to see these people get extra hurt...... I hope that President Kim will think more about it and never do anything to make these children hurt again. ”
Kim Kwang-so opened his mouth into the phone, but he couldn't say a word, as if his throat was not controlled at all. It doesn't matter if Zhaoyan likes it or not, the other party likes Liu Huaying, and doesn't like her 'extra damage', does this mean that you still need to say? That careful-eyed woman couldn't help but hold a grudge against Tara after all!
"Don't you understand?" waited for a while but didn't get a response, and the other end of the line looked a little impatient. "President Kim, don't think about making any text messages, videos, or recordings public, there's no point! Since Tara is being used as a political vase by Lee Jae-hyun, then you must have the consciousness of being crushed in the political wrestling! The problem now is that even the hardcore lawmakers under Moon Jae-in have openly jumped out to mock Ren Tae-hee's 'idol', and Congressman Na Qingyuan is also watching, don't you think about starting from the root of the matter, what's the point of jumping around like a grasshopper after the autumn?!"
How could Kim Kwang-so not understand that Liu Huaying really hooked up with Cha Eun-taek, and because Ren Tae-hee's matter was right in front of him, the camp behind Cha Eun-taek also expressed appropriate acceptance, and this phone call was simply a response from Liu Huaying's request for help from the other party just now.
And the problem now is that behind Liu Huaying is Cha Eunze, and behind Cha Eunze is Luo Qingyuan, who has a suspicion of TARA, and behind Luo Qingyuan is Ms. Park, the actual leader of the ruling party who has eyes in the sky. A relationship red line that seems to be fluttering but is not at all qualified to touch connects these people from top to bottom, and then through the Liu Huaying sisters, tara is cut in half and extended in front of her!
Thinking of this, Kim Kwang-so was still speechless, after all, Tara was the work of his heart for the rest of his life, and it was an extremely successful kind, how could he just sit back and watch this combination suffer a catastrophe. However, he is really powerless to resist!
"It seems that you understand, just understand. Che Enze on the other side of the phone paused for a moment and suddenly reacted. "President Kim, don't blame me for being ruthless, we are all doing things for the superiors, no one has a position, we can only say that the camps are different, these face-tearing words can only be done by those of us below, and if you want not to do dirty work, you can only turn yourself into a big man to give orders...... Anyway, remember, whether there is a text message or a video, keep it all, someone has taken action to save Liu Huaying!"
The call was hung up.
The people in the conference room didn't know what the two sides talked about in the end, but they could still see the scene where the president's face changed suddenly and he didn't say a word in the second half, so everyone couldn't help but stare at Kim Kwang-so.
"Tell me about it. Kim Kwang-so said with difficulty after putting down the phone. "The protest against the crew of "Five Fingers" continues, the resolution of TERA to stop running remains unchanged, and the matter of Liu Huaying's refusal to go on stage that day has been posted, but there is one thing that must be told to you...... That is, there should be no superfluous hope for Liu Xiaoying's threat to text messages, and I will definitely not use this thing to say anything or do anything. ”
The audience was silent.
"I know you have a lot of questions. Kim Kwang-so glanced apologetically at the members of TARA. "But I won't say it, and I want you to promise not to pass on any information about it...... Whether it's a member or an employee, whoever spreads the word will be fired!"
Perhaps the blows in two or three days were too frequent and severe for no member of the TAR to disagree. After waiting for a while, Eun Jing calmly dragged Ji-yeon to stand up, saying that she was going back to the dormitory to rest, and the rest of the team also responded, and they left cleanly after a while.
"Break the meeting, arrange manpower, pay attention to their psychological and physical state, and be sure to protect them. Kim Kwang-so, who was haggard, weakly arranged for Park Jong-hyun. "And then don't ask a word, and I won't say anything if I do. ”
When it came to this, Park Zongxian was already a little desperate, so he could only helplessly follow his words.
In this way, after staring at the wall clock on the wall for another quarter of an hour, Kim Kwang-so suddenly spoke again: "Prepare a car, I'm going to meet someone." ”
PS: Come on, the real plot is about to begin!
