Chapter Fifty-Eight: What Is That Free?

Because of the report of "Chosun Ilbo", the deeds of the names of Girls' Generation Sunny and Phoebe gradually became known to the public.

The media suddenly became enthusiastic about Girls' Generation, and they applied for an interview with the company. At first, the company was quite happy, but it soon became clear that the media didn't seem to have much interest in Girls' Generation itself, and they were interested in Sunny starting a sign language club.

Kim Young-min and the others immediately understood the cause and effect after a little thought, and it was obvious that this was what the Blue House meant. In the past two months, the South Korean government has held talks with the robbers in order to resolve the South Korean hostage incident in Afghanistan, which has led to a poor overall evaluation of South Korea by international public opinion. The story of the sign language community can help South Korea turn around its international image, so it is necessary to make this matter a household name in the international community and let foreigners realize how South Korea respects every citizen, which is the purpose of the people.

It's no wonder that no one from other brokerage companies came out to make trouble, and even gave up many publicity channels.

If there is such a ride, how can a shrewd businessman not contribute to it? Although Sunny and Phoebe are not the key characters of Girls' Generation, they are also members of Girls' Generation.

As a result, less than two days after the media enthusiasty, those who follow Girls' Generation discovered that Sunny and Phoebe seemed to be missing, and basically every time they finished attending an event, they broke away from the group. Except for Girls' Generation and the assistant team, no one knows what's going on.

At this moment, in a business car, sunny and Phoebe are sitting in the back, both of them are dressed in performance costumes, and sunny pouts as he looks at the Girls' Generation bus behind him quickly retreating.

At first, Sunny thought that after a few days of publicity, the matter would subside like the previous news, but unexpectedly, it intensified. She intuitively felt that this matter was strange, and secretly asked Phoebe, who told her the answer: "It was used by the government." ”

Sunny was stunned when he heard Phoebe's words, and seeing that Sunny was puzzled, Phoebe told Sunny about the connection. Sunny's face was full of bitterness when she heard this, she was reluctant to expose the sign language thing in the first place, because she did it in her own heart, and she didn't have any utilitarian ideas. As a result, it was first used by the company to promote Girls' Generation, and now it is used to promote the image of the country.

"It's disgusting. "Sunny was in a low mood.

"Art knows no borders, but artists have borders. Phoebe said a word of comfort that was not comforting, she knew that Sister Sun could understand what she meant.

Sure enough, Sunny nodded, sighed, and said, "Well, I know, but I'm an American." ”

"Girls' Generation is Korean. Phoebe shook her head.

"Seriously, I don't want to be involved in this anymore, it's really off-putting. Sunny nodded, and shook her head, she knew Phoebe was right, but she felt that her kindness was being used in such an intolerable way, as if she saw the deaf children in the nursery who looked at her with strange eyes.

Phoebe felt Sunny's mood and felt that she was a little bad, and shook her head and said, "Sister Sun, this is actually not only us in trouble, but the entire girlhood is also in trouble." I analyzed it, and I guess that not only other brokerage companies now, but even the seniors scattered all over the company should have opinions about Girls' Generation enjoying such a large-scale publicity resource - although they don't know if such a large number of channels are not made by the company. ”

"Well, that's right, they will definitely feel that Girls' Generation enjoys too many resources, and even the BOA seniors have not enjoyed so many promotional resources. The problem is that it is estimated that no one will sue everyone that this matter is not the work of the company, and the company does not have the ability to control so many publicity resources. And even if they knew, it would be counted as a girlhood that enjoyed a lot of promotional resources, and they would ask the company to balance it for them in the future. So we actually suffered a lot of losses. Sunny nodded, frowning even more.

Phoebe raised her hand and nodded at Sunny's brow and said, "If you don't like it, then let's just talk about it with the media." ”

Sunny shook his head: "Since the government is involved in this matter, no matter what we say, the media will not write according to our intentions." ”

"I mean, let everyone shift their goals. Phoebe reached out and tapped Sunny's eyebrows again.

Sunny looked at Phoebe with wide eyes and asked, "How?"

Phoebe whispered in Sunny's ear, and Sunny nodded her head frequently, her eyes widening wider.

At this time, on the Girls' Generation bus, the other people of Girls' Generation looked helplessly at the reporters who surrounded the car, and they couldn't leave at all.

The agent Zhu Ying got out of the car and said a few words, and then the reporters immediately began to reduce.

Taeyeon lifted the corner of the curtain and sighed as she watched the reporters who had diminished instantly, and several reporters saw Taeyeon who had lifted the curtains, and the cameras and video recorders in their hands slammed at her, so frightened that Taeyeon quickly pulled the curtain back again.

The atmosphere in the car is a bit dreary, and Tiffany, who is sitting next to Taeyeon, fiddles with her nails, which she had bent just now in order to break through the encirclement of reporters.

"I think it's not normal. Yun'er suddenly turned around and said, and then she whispered again: "The company doesn't let us talk, and it's not a scandal from a big star." ”

"Who knows, Taeyeon, what do you think?" Tiffany shrugged and asked Taeyeon again.

Taeyeon blinked her eyes and shook her head, "I don't know." ”

"Tsk, this is disgusting for the company. Sister Sunny was right at the beginning, but it wasn't necessarily good for us. Yuna shook her head.

"Well, totally agree, it's really despicable to expand your popularity with charity or something. I now understand what Sister Sunny had in mind. Xu Xian turned his head and interjected.

"Xiaoxian deserves to be a moral model. Tiffany laughed.

Xu Xian pouted: "Sister Tiffany, don't talk about me like that." I'm far worse than Sister Sunny and Phoebe. ”

Taeyeon nodded, but her expression was a little solemn, although the current events had a good publicity effect for newcomers like them, Taeyeon knew things that many members didn't know, and she had heard that some of the company's seniors had opinions about them. But she also wondered why the company was so aggressive in promoting them when they were just debuting or releasing a record.

Is it really because of charity that deserves publicity?

"Sister Taeyeon, do you say, will the company let Sister Sunny and Phoebe form a team?" Xu Xian suddenly asked in a low voice, his eyes were very serious.

Tiffany glanced at Xu Xian and said to her funny: "That's right, in the future, they will be the SP sisters charity duo, who are responsible for fundraising or something, and they don't have to run around every day to play songs and show them." ”

Seo Hyun is not a stupid child, he knows how mentally retarded this idea is, he pouted and stared at Tiffany without speaking, as if tears were about to appear in his eyes, so that Tiffany laughed, and it was the most fun to bully Seo Hyun when he was in the dormitory.

Taeyeon smiled after hearing Tiffany's words, shook her head, and said, "It's too early to form a team, we're just getting started." ”

Yoona looked at Tiffany with a smile, smoothed Seo-hyun's hair, and said to Taeyeon, "Why didn't the company let us talk and let Sister Sunny and Phoebe go alone?"

Taeyeon shook her head, in fact, she didn't know why the company arranged it this way, but judging from the company's publicity plan, the focus of publicity has not changed, so she said, "I don't know, but the company has no intention of changing the publicity plan." ”

When Yuna and Seo Hyun heard this, they nodded, turned around and went back to sit down.

At this time, the reporters surrounding the bus finally dispersed completely, and after the car started, Ju Young looked at the scattered reporters with a strange expression, these reporters were not interested in Girls' Generation at all, which made the entire assistant team very disappointed after knowing the truth. The directive given to them by the company two days ago was not to accept any interviews. At the time, everyone was happy that it would be effective to promote Girls' Generation with the help of Sunny and Phoebe, and the company's intention was to use GuΓ²'s refusal to be interviewed to arouse the appetite of the media and the public, and at the same time to cultivate word-of-mouth, but now it seems that things are not so simple.

However, the reporter's siege of the Girls' Generation bus has indeed increased the popularity of Girls' Generation a lot, which not only improves the popularity among the people, but also makes many businesses feel that the advertising potential of Girls' Generation is rapidly improving.

Zhu Ying privately inquired with the company's publicity team, the company will not and cannot change the focus of Girls' Generation in the near future, after all, the company has put Lin Yuna, a member of the singer group who is different from the past, at the forefront, itself is also sending a signal to the busy entertainment industry that Girls' Generation is used to open up new markets, not to grab everyone's food like WG - this is a signal that only those who understand in the entertainment industry understand.

This means that the current propaganda is likely not to be a company-initiated propaganda resource.

Juo-young knew that something must have happened that he didn't know, but the problem was that he couldn't find a good explanation to stabilize the morale of the army, after all, everyone knows who the company's propaganda focus is, whether it is an interview or a position, all the members are very cooperative with the company's arrangement, and the atmosphere in the group is also very good, Taeyeon, the captain, seems to be weak, but the management is very good.

Thinking of this, Zhu Yingtong guΓ² looked in the rearview mirror on the bus and glanced at the Girls' Generation people sitting behind him, fortunately, although there were two fewer people in the car, and the car was not as noisy as before, but everyone didn't look like there was a barrier.

But what is the purpose of the company arranging for Sunny and Phoebe to go alone? No matter how good Taeyeon is, sooner or later someone in the group will have an idea.

On the other hand, Jin Yingmin is also very irritable, since the media took the initiative to chase the news of sign language, some of the company's plans can not be implemented, after all, the propaganda resources in the hands of the government are not comparable to a brokerage company, and their own propaganda resources are completely overwhelmed by the government's propaganda resources, and people don't even have to come to say hello.

The worst thing is that there is no place to reason.

Neither Sa Man Company nor Kim Young-min wants to label Girls' Generation as a "charity artist" now, and that is something that will be done much later. But everyone thought about it for three or four days and didn't think of a way to break the game, after someone asked Li Xiuman, Li Xiuman's guy actually said that this matter was not in his hands, and asked everyone to find Kim Yingmin.

After thinking about it for a long time, Kim Young-min could only let everyone stop talking for the time being, waiting for the government to have new ideas. At the same time, in order to prevent the reporter from asking Sunny or Phoebe lightly, he let Sunny and Phoebe act alone, after all, no one has come to tell Sù what the company should do, and there is no way to control the scope of Zhì's speech.

There's really no way out.

What Kim Young-min doesn't know is that Phoebe already has a solution - when Phoebe and Sunny return to the dormitory first, Sunny can't wait to call Lee so-man. And there are no more than three people who know the content of this phone call, that is, Li Xiuman, Sunny and Phoebe.
