Chapter 598: Sins Deep
Most people's thoughts of Las Vegas are still stuck in the concept of casino, but in fact, the connotation and characteristics of Las Vegas have long gone beyond the scope of casino. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
While Las Vegas' main source of revenue is casinos, it's not just adults and gamblers who arrive here each year.
As we all know, Las Vega has grown from a strict railroad worker town to the present day, and a large number of tourists come every year, many of whom are families of all ages. If it were just gambling, it would not have been possible to attract the attention of so many tourists, especially those who play with their families and those who are not serious gamblers, who will not be able to linger in Las Vegas.
In a way, Las Vegas is a man-made tourist destination that provides people with a sense of satisfaction and novelty, and at the same time, because of the large number of theaters, nightclubs, and stages, Las Vegas has become a more accessible entertainment city, which makes Las Vegas different from New York, Los Angeles and other entertainment cities such as theaters or movies.
In Phoebe's view, there are certain experiences in Las Vegas that can be used as a reference for girls' generation.
Just as the Dune Hotel was used by Las Vegas people to crash down during the opening performance of Treasure Island, it is a quality of Las Vegas to use every opportunity to attract attention and make people feel like they can't be experienced anywhere else.
And Phoebe is also trying to make Girls' Generation have such a trait.
This is not to say that Phoebe wants Girlhood to defeat anyone, but that Phoebe's vision of the development of the group is indeed more crazy than those planners in the company, and of course, as long as it is done well, the benefits are also huge.
In fact, if you take a closer look at the entertainment circles around the world, you can always find things you learned from Las Vegas, such as stage design, such as dance movements, such as the costumes of artists, and such as the way funny artists speak.
Phoebe doesn't look down on the so-called innovation in the Korean entertainment industry at all, it's just something that most people in and outside the circle haven't seen, but it has long appeared in Las Vegas.
Therefore, if Girls' Generation wants to enter the European and American markets, on the one hand, it must rely on the promotion of the forces behind Phoebe, and on the other hand, it hopes that the copyright protection law can be strictly spread everywhere, so that the audience's experience can be limited.
However, there are always places in the world where Phoebe feels powerless, and that is countries and regions that do not play according to the copyright protection rules of Europe and the United States, such as Russia, North Korea and ......
In Asia, the problem is more complicated, especially in Southeast Asia.
As a simple example, when the Kuala Lumpur Petronas Twin Towers were built, Petronas hired construction contractors from two countries to be responsible for the construction of two high-rise buildings, one from RB and one from South Korea.
With the penetration of the RB entertainment industry into Southeast Asia, the Korean entertainment industry has also shown a sense of competition in the RB entertainment industry, which is a good opportunity for Southeast Asian countries not to let their own entertainment market be completely occupied by a certain company, that is, no matter how many RB people come, how many Koreans will come.
Therefore, Korean artists who develop in Southeast Asia don't even have to make too much effort, no matter how hard RB people try, Koreans will get the same number of opportunities.
This is not a good thing for Phoebe, because she sees everyone except Girls' Generation as an enemy, so Phoebe's strategy in Southeast Asia is to find ways to suppress Korean artists to win more opportunities for Girls' Generation.
Before she officially joined Girls' Generation, Phoebe was thinking about Girls' Generation's global status, and she realized that the global entertainment market is not a market where hard work leads to good results, but a market that seems to be the same everywhere on the surface, but in fact has the same rules everywhere.
In fact, for Phoebe, it was not difficult at all to help the group hold a concert tour around the world. Especially in Europe, the United States and RB, people have long been accustomed to large-scale events such as concerts, which are no different from watching a show in Las Vegas. Therefore, the future of Girls' Generation planned by Phoebe is very different from the future of Girls' Generation planned by the company.
Just like the current girlhood, I was actually invited by the Chinese to China to participate in a cultural exchange conference that could only be participated by the official and the media, to be honest, many artists in South Korea are red because of this, after all, the result of the transfer of capital to the entertainment industry caused by the economic crisis is not to increase the opportunities for the front desk of the entertainment industry, that is, the stars who show their faces on TV and the media, but to greatly increase the opportunities for behind-the-scenes personnel, after all, no matter how hard a person works, there are only twenty-four hours a day.
In addition to being invited to attend the exchange meeting, Girls' Generation indicates that the Chinese market is to some extent open to Girls' Generation, and now people all over the world know that the economic crisis is not China, because China has a huge and prosperous domestic market, even if there are no high-tech products, just the industrial chain used by Chinese to meet the needs of human survival can feed countless enterprises.
What's more, South Korea, like the United States, has all gone on strike in the upstream of the entertainment industry, that is, the screenwriter circle, this year, and even idiots can see the danger of a single entertainment industry.
Therefore, in addition to the really top artists, many people yearn to go to China, RB and even Southeast Asian countries to pan for gold.
But the biggest problem they face is that no one cares about them after they go. To put it more realistically, the sporadic fans in the local area are not guilty of making them leave the Korean market.
However, the fact that Chinese invite Girls' Generation, the only group of artists, to participate in the conference is very different from those artists who can only stay in South Korea, which means that the Chinese government is supportive of Girls' Generation, even if the number of fans in China's Girls' Generation is too small, but with official help, it is clear that Girls' Generation will have a lot to do in China in the future.
So, everyone is very red-eyed, and at the same time, some people want to tie up Girls' Generation, and some people have already planned, if there is no result in stammering as a senior, then they have to make trouble for Girls' Generation. Anyway, the temperament that those little girls have always shown is the type of person who doesn't know the world and can dig a hole casually, and they can jump into it themselves, and it is not difficult to make the situation they open up in China fall short, after all, they have a criminal record.
After Girls' Generation attended the meeting, she went to SC accompanied by some semi-official people SC said that in 2008, SC had an area known to the whole country, and Girls' Generation went here because the Internet said a few days ago that they were happy because the earth turned over or something, and now, they want to go to the local area to see.
Tiffany was a little apprehensive along the way, and China's anti had always been holding on to the boy and girl ballad Baishu, and she laughed when she heard the name of the place. To be fair, she did take the blame, after all, she couldn't grasp the point in other things, and when another host mentioned the casualties caused by the earthquake, she still thought that the place name was somewhat similar to the comedy content she had seen, which was really inappropriate.
It can be said that the impact of this incident on Tiffany is quite large, not only was she reprimanded by the company afterwards, but even the assistant who accompanied her to shoot the show was also reprimanded at that time, and there was also pressure from online speech. She had already vaguely felt it afterwards, because the laughter was so ill-conceived that she had lost the possibility of participating in some of the trips, but because the company had asked everyone to be silent after the lights-out incident, there was no actual evidence to support this suspicion.
In fact, not only did she feel it, but Sunny, Xiuying, Yu Li and others also believed that Tiffany had changed their attitudes towards Tiffany and even the entire Girls' Generation because of that laughter.
In a way, many producers believe that Tiffany may be able to help boost the show's mood, but her professionalism is too poor and she is prone to making mistakes, and she is likely to jeopardize the show in places that involve justice and morality. In fact, everyone thinks that until Tiffany matures, let's not invite her as the protagonist for the time being.
Fortunately, the company pushed off most of the itinerary for the second half of Girls' Generation, so that the opinion of Tiffany in the circle did not make too much trouble for the time being, but Phoebe had already listed this matter as one of the things that needed to be supplemented.
Therefore, when Girls' Generation participated in the China-South Korea symposium, they proposed to the Chinese side that they wanted to go to Wenchuan to have a look according to the advice given by Phoebe. As for this suggestion, in fact, most people in Girls' Generation know that this time I went to SC to help Tiffany and the entire group make up for their mistakes.
In fact, this opportunity came by chance, after all, Phoebe could not let the Chinese invite her sisters to China to attend the conference, what she could do was to let her sisters seize the opportunity as much as possible when the opportunity arose.
Although the exchange meeting has ended, as long as Girls' Generation has not left China, then it can be considered that their status is still invited by China, and they took the initiative to ask the Chinese side to visit Wenchuan, which can be regarded as semi-official on the one hand, and on the other hand, it is also regarded by the Chinese official as goodwill from South Korea.
So, on the surface, it seems that the eight people of Girls' Generation should feel good on the trip, but in fact it is the opposite. Everyone is not very energetic, because when Phoebe gave advice to her sisters, she also focused on one thing: in order to host the Japan-South Korea World Cup, South Korea specially relocated more than 30 dog meat restaurants in Seoul Dog Meat Street to an alley that foreigners can't find, and then Seoul also issued business licenses to 19 newly opened dog meat restaurants.
At the same time, Phoebe mentioned one more thing, people love to see flowers and flowers kangaroos, alpacas are still eaten, Australia's kangaroo meat industry is at least nearly 300 million a year, and the alpaca meat industry chain is gradually unfolding.
Importantly, Phoebe also deliberately drew an animation of less than five minutes, in which the protagonist of the animation is rice, and showed the world view of a series of horror films from the perspective of rice from growth, maturity to human processing, and finally to being eaten.
Other than these, Phoebe didn't say anything else, but seeing these things that Phoebe blessed not to leak to the outside world, everyone looked at each other, and finally focused their eyes on the two people, Tiffany and Seo Hyun.
Everyone knows why Phoebe brought up this matter, because Tiffany is an animal protectionist, the last time she came to China, she donated money to an animal protection organization in just a few hours when she passed by, and Xu Xian, who shared a bedroom with her, also listened to the ideas and agitation that Tiffany brought from the United States.
Now, they are going to Wenchuan, and they can no longer judge other people's values with their own values at will, although everyone doesn't know the customs in Wenchuan, but since Fei Bi mentioned this matter, it means that at least over there, I am afraid that there will be people who eat something they are not used to. Although Phoebe is not asking Tiffany to change her position, she is also reminding everyone that they are not able to do things that ordinary people would do when they were ordinary people, such as fanatical animal protection practices.
Of course, Phoebe didn't mind donating money to animal protection organizations or something, Phoebe was worried that Tiffany would not be able to control her emotions and waste the opportunity to make up for her mistakes that had arisen unexpectedly, or even turn into a bigger mistake.
Sunny even saw from Phoebe's reminder that Phoebe probably thought that Tiffany had a problem in other aspects, but Sunny couldn't guess what the problem was for a while. But she clearly felt the deep malice contained in Phoebe's cartoons - there are not only animal lovers in the world, but also people who are plant lovers, and of course human lovers (well, that title seems a bit strange), and it is really troublesome to go around and tear B between the three.
To be honest, when Taeyeon is away, Girls' Generation is indeed a bit of a mess, especially Sunny and so-young, who always think that other people are a little bit bigger, and always give some suggestions to guide Girls' Generation's behavior. But in Taeyeon's absence, many of the suggestions they put forward were not taken by everyone, but instead used a pure dish cooking method to discuss and argue in circles.
This makes a lot of things impossible, after all, the efficiency of pure cooking is obvious to all, so the eight people of Girls' Generation in China are all looking forward to Taeyeon meeting them as soon as possible.
There is a good saying, only when you have lost can you know the happiness you once had.
The members all realize that no one other than Taeyeon wants to be the captain of Girls' Generation. Even though Taeyeon, the captain, often has convulsions and even some childish behaviors, everyone feels that as long as Taeyeon is there, everyone can quickly negotiate a result of anything, unlike now, when people's hearts and morale should be high because of the Chinese trip, but they are as loose as a defeat, you know, after the lights out time at the previous Korean Dream Concert, the group's morale has not been as bad as it is now.
Although Kim Doo-seok has been following Girls' Generation, he now has a secret identity, that is, Phoebe's person, so after such signs appeared in Girls' Generation, he did not unravel and lead this combination of the captain's absence like other agents in the company, but according to Phoebe's daily instructions, he just maintained the apparent unity of the members of Girls' Generation, and did not let them quarrel because of something and cause a rift.
Kim Doo-seok knew Phoebe's plan, more precisely, Phoebe's temporary plan, that is, to take advantage of the mentality problems that arose when the members were far away from the familiar South Korea, to guide and form a situation where everyone needs Taeyeon, which he obviously did very well, and even he felt that someone must step up and lead the way now in Girls' Generation, and this leader could only be Taeyeon, who was still filming in the United States at the time.
Kim Doo-seok even knows that the purpose of Phoebe's temporary plan is not only to continue to increase Taeyeon's authority in the group, but also to take the opportunity to once again drain the weight of the company's Girls' Generation members.
Therefore, when Taeyeon is picked up at the airport, before Taeyeon is amazed by the scenery of mainland China, the members of Girls' Generation cry uncontrollably, especially Tiffany, who feels aggrieved and holds Taeyeon and does not let go. It made Taeyeon stunned: "Hehe, I didn't expect you to think of me so much~"
She is answered by the eight members' louder cries, in fact, none of them are ready to cry until they see Taeyeon, including Tiffany, who is the first to cry. And watching the scene where the members cried three times inside and three times outside Taeyeon, Kim Doo-seok breathed a sigh of relief, the temporary plan that made him feel like he was walking a tightrope every day was finally completed, and now Phoebe should rest assured.
One of the first things Taeyeon had to deal with when she returned to the group was when the members complained to her: "Because of Phoebe, we feel guilty about everything we eat...... For example, when eating rice and noodles, I always think of the desperate eyes and cries of the wheat that I see in Phoebe's animation, and the wheat that is about to be crushed - Phoebe's depiction of rice is too cute and too pitiful. And when eating rice, you will also recall the rice that has been savagely stripped naked by the machine, the shy and angry eyes and body movements, these stripped rice has also experienced being flooded, and then it is put in a steamer and steamed to death, and even when it is put in the rice bowl, the rice that is not yet dead as the protagonist looks desperately at the whole pot of rice corpses that look like a mass grave, and the giant mouth of the human who keeps devouring the corpses of its kind......
So, Taeyeon, under the malicious seduction of the members, also watched Phoebe's animated shorts, and then she immediately called and scolded Phoebe for a full twenty minutes, after which Taeyeon still felt that it was not enough, and called Barbara again, telling Phoebe about her lawlessness......
That's why Barbara complained to Phoebe that Girls' Generation had to talk to her, because she understood that Taeyeon meant, or the other people of Girls' Generation, probably wanted her to watch the cartoon that made people feel guilty about anything they ate after watching it.
