Chapter 8050 "Look, He's Nodding"

Although Jin Doo-seok said that he was the temporary master, but in fact he was not, the main things on the manor's side were actually the security chiefs assigned by Titan to be responsible for and make decisions, after all, the characteristics of the network management structure are that with Asteria as the coordination, anyone can report directly to Phoebe. Although the total number of Titan employees here is small, the people here don't actually feel any different from the Titan employees in other regions, they feel that they are just as important as the Titan employees in other regions - this is the credit of Asteria.

Due to the arrival of Girls' Generation, Titan also sent more than a dozen people from Desert New City to pretend to be Titan employees of Universal Music. Universal Music naturally doesn't have much thought about this, because Titan has an agreement with Universal Music - the phenomenon of some small brokerage companies affiliated with Universal Music does exist.

Although Universal Music is mainly engaged in music distribution, rather than making an economy for artists, this model is indeed a very convenient way for small brokerage companies that have strong ability to help artists manage and plan their acting careers, but have no ability in terms of channels and publicity, and quite a lot of small brokerage companies are actually brokerage companies or studios established by the artists themselves, and Universal Music is how to tie up artists.

As for the artists who do not set up their own studios after becoming famous, everyone has only one evaluation of them - they are stupid and have a lot of money, comparable to Michael......

The nature of the contract between Girls' Generation and Universal Music, from a purely logical point of view, is actually not as good as the rights enjoyed by the contract signed between BOA and CAA, but it can't stand the "studio" of Girls' Generation, Titan, which has a deep background and strong ability, so from the perspective of the contract, although the treatment of Girls' Generation is not very good, but in fact, it enjoys the top treatment.

BOA changed his original intention and dispelled the idea of signing a contract with Universal Music directly after gradually understanding the details of Girls' Generation's contract with Universal Music, in fact, Li Xiuman persuaded BOA to dispel the idea, after all, he not only has a way in South Korea, but also in the United States, otherwise his music copyright company will not receive the song at all.

After watching the members of Girls' Generation huddle around BOA and leave with a smile, Kim Doo-seok turned to Lee so-man: "Director Lee, this is the head of the assistant team sent by Universal Music to help us, Helga Miller, and this, Linus Ben Miller, they are all from the same department as Barbara, and they are dedicated to providing services for Girls' Generation's trip to the United States. ”

Hearing that a man and a woman in front of him had the same surname, Li Xiuman didn't think it was strange, this is a common phenomenon in private studios or personal agencies in the American entertainment industry, where the couple serves a star at the same time.

Although in other industries, it is easy to have some disadvantages caused by positions or rights because the husband and wife belong to the same company, but it is different in the entertainment industry, which helps celebrities keep secrets on the one hand, and on the other hand, it can also make it easier for celebrities to control their assistants, and if one person makes a mistake, both of them will be fired.

In essence, this is actually a continuation of the ancient feudal class system, the star is equivalent to the aristocratic class, and the assistant who serves them is equivalent to the servant or attendant class, for the aristocracy, it is natural to think that the whole family depends on their own life The person will be more loyal, this is a simple logic that cannot be erased in human nature, therefore, although European and American stars have been preaching equality and fraternity, but around them, the vast majority of the people used are this kind of oppressive class relations in ancient times.

As for the stars who are hopelessly stupid, who are staged by assistants at the level of attendants or retainers, and whose lives are completely controlled, that's another matter.

Looking at it this way, it seems that there is a new way to explain the relationship between the brokerage company and the star, but in essence, it is not the case, the biggest difference between the brokerage company and the brokerage company established by the star himself is that the role of the brokerage company is only to make the stars look like stars in the eyes of fans, and the stars who belong to professional brokerage companies are not stars at all in essence. They are somewhat like those court nobles under the jurisdiction of ancient European royal families, and the real stars are companies, not them.

The most convenient way to distinguish between this kind of fake star and real star is to see how it started, if it relies on a large brokerage company or a special opportunity to rise, then these are fake stars, and if it is not like this, but relies on its own ability to gain support and recognition, and most of the works are created by themselves, then they are real stars.

Phoebe has been trying to promote Girls' Generation into the ranks of real stars before, but as mentioned earlier, the biggest weakness of Girls' Generation is that none of the members have the ability to create - in fact, what everyone has high hopes for in Girls' Generation is Seo Xian, who is well protected by everyone, she has really been exposed to piano and music since she was a child, but from the current point of view, she is far from the time to open her mind.

After Li Xiuman's previous secret training of Phoebe, after seeing Phoebe's sensitivity to music in the training, he thought that Phoebe might have creative ability in music in the future, although various types of training teachers reported that Phoebe had no creative ability, but Li Xiuman didn't mind at the time, but was overjoyed to stuff Phoebe into Girls' Generation, because he needed to send in someone strong enough to fight with Seo Hyun, who was selected by Kim Young-min and might have creative ability.

That's right, when Li Xiuman first arranged special training for Phoebe, his real purpose was actually to see Phoebe's understanding and creative ability......

But everyone can play abacus, although Phoebe didn't know Li Xiuman's plans at that time, but she entered the girlhood and entered the company with ulterior motives. Therefore, a year and a half after their debut, Phoebe and Li Xiuman, as well as the senior management of Saman, almost all thought of the same problem - since Girls' Generation has no creativity, then Saman's company has turned Girls' Generation into the mode of recovering the pre-investment, and there is no creativity, which determines that this combination has no future.

Phoebe knows that it is impossible for her to forcibly resist the natural laws of the entertainment industry, and artists without creative ability must act as downstream people in the entertainment industry, but because the current international community has enough circulation, it has opened up the barriers between territory, language and local culture, so it gives Girls' Generation a chance to maintain it with a different kind of opportunity.

Therefore, in dealing with Li Xiuman's visit to spy on the truth, Phoebe's attitude is naturally developmental, after all, this is likely to be of great help to improve the image of Girls' Generation in the hearts of the company - yes, we are not creative, but our connections in the United States, but the company dreams of contacting.

Therefore, Kim Doo-seok claimed that he could call the shots before, and Li Xiuman didn't take it seriously, at most he felt that Kim Doo-seok was inflated, but when Kim Doo-seok immediately introduced a foreigner couple to him with a very eye-catching attitude, Lee so-man's attitude immediately corrected.

Because, according to what Kim Doo-seok said, these two people are the same as Barbara, the person in charge sent by the forces that support Phoebe!

You know, in the past week, to be precise, in the past for a long time, Li Xiuman and Kim Young-min have not found a way to contact the forces behind Phoebe, after exposing Phoebe's relationship with the ambassador to South Korea, Samman's company began to contact her, but relatively speaking, although Phoebe through the relationship, so that the album from Girls' Generation's debut to March 08 has become one of the procurement supplies for American office staff abroad, helping Girls' Generation's works to increase sales by at least 13,000, but Samman's company has never been able to talk to the ambassador and his wife, so all the ways that Phoebe has taken without Phoebe will not work。

However, with the appearance of Barbara, the attention of the company was shifted to Universal Music, so they began to try their best to find out with Universal Music, but the result was that they only figured out that Barbara was actually a person from a studio affiliated with Universal Music, but before the people of the company could use this discovery to test Barbara, Barbara showed the huge energy behind it during her trip to the United States- That's right, the top management of the company naturally understands that Kim Doo-seok was purely pushed out as a shield, and they are not so stupid at this point.

But this discovery also led to the fact that Saman has not been able to really get in touch with the company or individual who sent Barbara - well, because that person is Phoebe - but Saman understands that if it can establish a connection with the company or studio behind Barbara, I am afraid that it will not only be able to find the celebrity fan station with the most registered users who has played well on the Internet in South Korea, the controller behind Knowles Light, but also in many ways will be beneficial to Samman's expansion in the United States.

But as I said before, no matter how they checked, there was only one result - what they wanted him to find, they found it all, and what they didn't want the company to find out, the company didn't find anything.

Therefore, for Li Xiuman, after meeting the Miller couple, his heart was really vaguely excited, after all, Barbara had been the only one who was active on the bright side......

After the three of them greeted Kim Doo-seok under the introduction, Kim Doo-seok said: "Director, if you can rest here, how about you have dinner together?" In the past two days, I have heard from Mr. and Mrs. Miller about a lot of things that should be paid attention to when participating in the award ceremony, and I have benefited a lot, and I think the company might as well increase the training of assistants in this regard. ”

"So when you came, you almost moved the assistant team of Girls' Generation?" asked Li Xiuman, seemingly casually.

"Actually, at the beginning, Barbara just told me that Universal Music couldn't find anyone who could speak Korean, so she wanted us to bring the assistant team over, so I reported it to President Kim, told me about it, and brought our people over. Kim Doo-seok said with a sincere expression.

Li Xiuman still remembered that Kim Doo-seok seemed to be hinting at "this is not Korea" just now, but now seeing that he seemed to be dedicated to the public, he suddenly became a little suspicious, but he didn't show it, but nodded: "Well, you have a good idea in this regard, after you go back, you can spread what you learned this time in the company by the way, and be careful not to let people from other companies learn it...... Well, the people you picked are loyal enough, right?"

Jin Doo-seok naturally knew what Li Xiuman meant, after all, he was nodded by Phoebe, so he nodded with a smile: "Director, I know that you didn't read the attachment of the email I secretly sent to you, so to put it mildly, in terms of loyalty to the company, I actually have the same idea as you, and the assistants who are born in the trainee system are the most reliable, so the people I selected this time are mainly from trainees." ”

"Ahh......h Oh!" Li Xiuman nodded and said in his heart, "When did Kim Doo-seok email me?"

At this time, Kim Doo-seok turned to the Millers and said, "Okay, he said he wants to stay, so let's talk about those things after dinner." ”

The Millers also nodded, and then went away with relief, because according to the arrangement of Phoebe conveyed by Asterea, they could only do something to Li Xiuman at night......
