Chapter 298: What's the Secret?
Sprinkled all over the company, some music room.
Two pop music teachers who are resident in the company, as well as a music copyright lawyer, are listening to a sample of a song brought by Lee so-man with Lee so-man and Kim Young-min here.
The music teacher listened with contempt, the lawyer slightly diǎn his fingers with the song hiddenly, and Lee so-man clasped his hands to his chest, with the same contemptuous expression as the two music teachers, but he also observed Kim Young-min from time to time with a rather solemn expression.
After the song was played, Kim Young-min looked at Lee so-man, and Lee so-man asked, "Do you really think such a song will be popular?" ”
Kim Young-min frowned and shook his head: "I don't know much about music, but as a layman, this song is very simple and easy to learn." ”
The lawyer also said, "That's right, I don't think it's very difficult. ”
Li Xiuman frowned and looked at the other two people, a music teacher had a somewhat insistent expression at this time, and said: "The melody is very simple, the arrangement is quite distinctive, and the lyrics are even simpler, I think this song is unlikely to be popular." ”
Another teacher followed: "I heard about the jogging rhythm last year, and I have to admit that there is some truth in what those psychologists say, but after all, music is not the same as research, and in a country with a formal copyright system, how can people hear the same songs without interruption?" ”
Li Xiuman's brows relaxed, and he said, "That's what I mean." ”
However, Kim Young-min did not express his position, but said: "In this way, everyone should not leak out the songs they heard today, otherwise there will definitely be something to say from the P side." ”
The two music teachers and the copyright lawyer looked at Li Xiuman again, and Li Xiuman also said to the three of them: "That's right, no matter what, it's better to hide this kind of communication between brokerage companies from the outside, and those small brokerage companies always like to question the big companies talking to each other to avoid the return of each other's artists." ”
Everyone was diǎn diǎn head, and Li Xiuman said again: "Okay, you guys go back first, Director Jin and I still have something to say." ”
When the three of them left, Jin Yingmin hugged his arms and frowned: "Teacher Li, do you still think that Park Jinying is vain?" ”
Li Xiuman shook his head and said: "I never thought so, but his music direction is a little inconsistent with the concept of Saman's company." ”
"The music of idol singers should be more popular than pop singers, and I wonder why the company hasn't seen this diǎn clearly after so many years." Jin Yingmin shook his head slightly.
Li Xiuman continued to shake his head and said: "You are right, however, idol singers should not be popular purely for the sake of popularity, for the company, there is nothing wrong with treating singers as commodities, but for music, we should still have some respect." ”
Kim Young-min said, "I've always had a lot of respect for music, whether it's classical music or modern music. As he spoke, Kim Young-min pointed to the interior of the music room and said, "But don't forget, we are a commercial company, and the first task of a commercial company is to increase revenue. ”
Lee so-man knew that Kim Young-min meant that if it was for musicality, the decoration in this music room didn't need to be so high-end, because musicality came from people, not from instruments. Of course, Lee so-man also knew that Kim Young-min was not trying to persuade himself with an extreme example, but was stating the fact that Saman did invest far more in music hardware than other agencies, and Kim Young-min had never set up obstacles in this regard.
Li Xiuman diǎndiǎn head said: "I understand what you mean, these devices are just for convenience. However, as the first idol agency in Korea, the company should not do everything possible to attract people who don't know how to do it when producing zuò songs, after all, we are the first in China, and we can't be willing to degenerate to chase a fixed music model, which will make the company lose its long-standing tradition and completely become an assembly line workshop. ”
Kim Young-min frowned and was silent for a while, and said, "You still mean that Park Jin-young wants to pass the guò song sample and interfere with our judgment?" ”
Lee so-man diǎndiǎn head said: "That's right, just like I told you at the beginning, Park Jin-young thinks that Phoebe is the same person as him. And as you know, the ONRRS is much stronger in Thailand than Girls' Generation, and on the West Coast of the United States, it is far ahead of us. Speaking of this, Li Xiuman saw that Park Zhenying's eyes were a little strange when he looked at him, and immediately said again: "Okay, I have to admit that I was too idealistic in the matter of Bao'er going to the United States, and now I admit defeat, and onrrs did a good job there." ”
Park Zhenying frowned and shook his head: "This is actually not something that a group can do, Mr. Li, you should accept this reality, P's music concept is now ahead of us, no matter how popular this music form is, for an agency, how to better develop its artists is the most important thing, musicality has little to do with us." ”
When Li Xiuman heard this, he immediately frowned and looked at Kim Yingmin, thinking: I admit that I didn't achieve a good result in the matter of Bao'er going to the United States, and you really climbed up the pole after this topic!?
As a professional manager, Jin Yingmin can naturally see Li Xiuman's knot, but due to the many conflicts between the two on the company's business philosophy, he knows that no matter what he says, he will be attacked by Li Xiuman.
Therefore, Kim Young-min shook his head slightly and said, "Okay, let's not talk about this for now, I agree with what you said about Park Jin-young's idea of borrowing Phoebe to develop ONRR on the east coast of the United States." And you're right, the management really can't do anything with Phoebe, but I don't agree with you that Phoebe and Park Jin-young will eventually join forces. ”
Li Xiuman frowned and shook his head: "Park Zhenying also said that he is actively seeking to sign a contract with Universal Music, which is difficult not to make people associate him with Phoebe, do you know, Phoebe wrote me an email in the first half of this year, saying that she wants to sign a contract with Universal Music in Girls' Generation, I don't deny that she is very smart, but I don't want to treat her completely as a person of the company, after all, she has forced the company to make compromises." ”
Kim Young-min shook his head and said: "That's just mutual understanding, you're right, there are indeed some coincidences in the matter of Universal Music, but you can't doubt Phoebe's motives because of this, if Phoebe really contacted Park Jin-young, Park Jin-young will definitely not expose this relationship." ”
Li Xiuman was suddenly suffocated, and Kim Yingmin said again: "And even if as you said, what if Phoebe and Park Zhenying have a private connection?" It's not that you don't know Phoebe's background, can she still dig up the whole girlhood to p? ”
Li Xiuman was still speechless, he did suspect that Phoebe was secretly in contact with the senior management of other brokerage companies in private, but he couldn't figure out what benefits Phoebe could get from the crowd, because Saman couldn't give Phoebe to Phoebe, and other companies couldn't give it, after all, Phoebe itself was the owner of a fast-growing high-tech company.
The situation is hilarious, the director who recruited Phoebe into the company is suspicious of Phoebe, and the director who once hindered Phoebe from entering the company is defending Phoebe.
At this time, Phoebe was staying in the lounge of the music bank with her sisters, and everyone gathered around to listen to Hyo-yeon explain the process of auditioning at Disney.
Xiuying, who was sitting next to Phoebe, suddenly approached Phoebe and whispered in her ear: "Girl, if you didn't accompany Hyo-yuan to the audition that day, did you plan to give Hyo-yuan a chance to brag in front of us from the beginning?" ”
Phoebe looked sideways at Xiuying, blinked and said, "Why do you think so?" ”
Xiuying got closer to Phoebe, put one hand on Phoebe's shoulder on the other side, and said, "Hehe, when I admit it, I found out that you are also quite good at being a person." ”
Phoebe shook her head slightly and explained: "No, that was the first flight after buying the 91, I have to follow and see, there is no other meaning." ”
Xiuying suddenly smiled: "Okay, I believe you." Hey. After saying that, Xiuying stopped staring at Phoebe's face, but her arms around Phoebe tightened, and her body shook involuntarily, and Phoebe felt from Xiuying's love that she was quite happy now.
At this time, I heard Xiaoyuan say: "Really, it's embarrassing to say now, I really felt like I was about to go to the execution ground, which was worse than when we debuted." ”
Taeyeon said disdainfully: "Cut, then you actually dare to brag that you are okay when you leave, and you treat it as a trip, which is really embarrassing for us." ”
Yoona, who was sitting next to Taeyeon, touched Taeyeon with her shoulder and said, "Actually, I'm quite nervous before every audition, it's not like I don't think about anything on TV, it's impossible not to think about it, Sister Hyoyeon, I understand you." Go on. ”
Hyoyeon nodded embarrassedly, and said: "Taeyeon, you have always been singing, and you have a lot of time to practice, so the nervousness is definitely not as big as the audition, to be honest, I only knew after this time what our Yun'er's more than 200 auditions represented, Yun'er, sister admires you." ”
Yun'er suddenly complained: "Ah~ Sister Xiaoyuan, say it quickly!" Why are you talking about me, and Sister Yu Li and Sister Xiuying have also auditioned, and it is only a matter of time before others are others, you tell your story first. ”
Taeyeon secretly poked Yoona with the finger hidden under her arm, after all, they have been roommates for more than half a year, and many times they can really understand each other's meaning, Yoona knows what Taeyeon means, so she turned her head to Taeyeon and said: That's right, the audition is super scary!
Taeyeon grinned in disbelief, SNN and An Yu Li next to Taeyeon opposite saw Taeyeon and Yuna's movements, SNN and An couldn't help but look at Yu Li, Yu Li pouted his mouth diǎn diǎn head, and suddenly whispered to SNN: "So I was in a bad mood during the audition, you don't blame me now, right?" ”
SNN pouted: "Hmph, you wait, I'm going to audition too, and then come back to get revenge on you!" ”
An was confused by the conversation between the two people, and was about to ask in the blink of an eye, but Yu Li immediately said to her, "It's okay, it's okay." "It's the same with SNN.
An pouted, she knew that something must have happened between Yu Li and SNN, and then she looked at Xu Xian and Phoebe and immediately smiled in her heart: Although everyone lives together, the roommates are indeed more intimate, and there are secrets in each room that the other sisters don't know.
