Chapter 292
"The authorities are fascinated, and the bystanders are clear?" said the very dignified female voice: "What I said is very Chinese-style." ”
"The art of Chinese writing is broad and profound. Xu Ning said: "I don't know what you think?"
"Of course, it's a lot of things. The female voice said, "Okay, although your views and suggestions still seem very immature, the core idea is indeed full of novelty, and it is still of some value to me." ”
"That's good. Xu Ning smiled, "Then I don't know ...... you, Ms. Park."
"Okay, you can go back, and you can come back next month today. The woman waved her hand.
"Yes. Xu Ning nodded and bowed to leave.
Fifteen minutes later, inside a BMW, Li Qiwu asked, "How is tonight?"
"A little progress. Xu Ning said, "But why didn't she let you in tonight?"
"Maybe I don't think it's convenient for me to get involved in this topic. Li Qiwu thought for a while and said.
"Hey, I'll have to come back again next month today. Xu Ning took a deep breath, "What a headache." ”
"That's a good thing, because she's still interested in you. Li Qiwu said: "Why are you still unhappy?"
"I'm afraid that next time I won't be able to come up with any new highlights to keep her interested. Xu Ning said: "After all, I'm not like you, no matter what you do, your industry is there, and your net worth is there......"
"Thinking about it from another angle, you have neither any industry nor any net worth, and it is not easy for her to maintain her interest for so long. Li Qiwu said: "It's very inspiring." ”
"I haven't seen you for a few days, and you're good at comforting people, how. Have you a girlfriend?" Xu Ning touched his nose and said.
"You're really thinking about it. Li Qiwu waved his hand, "How can I have any girlfriend?"
"Yes, this is a very important matter for you, how about it, is your family starting to urge you?" asked Xu Ning.
"It started a long time ago. But this is also something that cannot be rushed. Li Qiwu said.
"Be careful when you come home one day and find that there is one more girl. Xu Ning teased.
"What's there to be careful about here, just take it to register when the time comes. Li Qiwu shook his head and said.
"Isn't it, so obedient?" Xu Ningleng paused, "I thought you would at least have to show an attitude or something......
"What an attitude?yes, that is, you are too wise, this girl is super good, I ......like it so much," Li Qiwu said: "Coax the old man and the old lady well, and then go and yourself." ”
"You cow!" Xu Ning gave a thumbs up. "But aren't you going to use the power over there?"
"The water spilled by the married daughter has entered my house, how much strength can you expect from there? Even if it does, I will not have face at that time, and it will make the people in my family unhappy. Li Qiwu shook his head and said, "But why are you so interested in this tonight?"
"It's nothing, it's just a little curious to remember that it seems like you're still single. Xu Ning said.
"Is it possible that you have recently fallen into the gentle township and are planning to break away from our team?" Li Qiwu raised his eyebrows.
"Thinking too much. I didn't plan to. Xu Ning waved his hand again and again: "It's still like this, it's free." Unrestrained. ”
"Hehe, don't talk about this, how is your plan to stand on your own?" Li Qiwu asked with a smile.
"It's going pretty well, most of the hardware stuff is done, and now it's missing some of the software stuff. Xu Ning said.
"At the end of the day, it's a matter of people. Li Qiwu nodded. "Do you need ......?"
"No, I can solve this matter myself. Without waiting for Li Qiwu to finish speaking, Xu Ning waved his hand and said.
"It's fine. Li Qiwu smiled, "You haven't been to Incheon for a few days recently......"
"yes. Xu Ning nodded. "By the way, in the Incheon project, has the Jiang family made any new requirements recently......
"Recently, there has been no sound on his side, but at present, everything is still in the construction stage, and it is estimated that when the overall project is completed and ready to attract merchants to settle in and prepare to make cakes, the people over there will jump out. Li Qiwu said, "When the time comes, it is estimated that your life will be very sad, I myself am very willing to make a lot of concessions, but in this project, I have used a lot of my family's strength and funds, and when the time comes, under their pressure, it is likely that I will be very persistent......
"I understand that. Xu Ning said: "When the time comes, it's the time to really nerve." ”
"The boat is naturally straight to the bridge, so you don't have to worry too much. Li Qiwu took a deep breath, "How about it, how about finding a place to drink two cups of tea, Lao Jin and Lao Bai are not people in this way, I usually want to drink tea but I can't find a companion." ”
"Well, I haven't had tea in a long time. Xu Ning nodded, "Is there anything good?"
"Absolutely. Li Qiwu smiled: "It's still a good place, with good water and good tea." ”
…… Two nights later, in a private room at Walkerhill, one of the most luxurious hotels in Seoul, South Korea.
"President Hong, isn't this a waste?" Xu Ning looked at the empty box, "Just the two of us want such a big box?"
"Hehe, get used to it. Hong Seung-seong, the president of CUBE Corporation, waved his hand and said, "I'm sorry, I've been busy lately......
"Understand, understand. Xu Ning nodded, "I've been very busy lately, and it took so long for both sides to drag on......
"yes. Hong Shengcheng nodded, "President Xu Ning, what have you been busy with lately?"
"It's just a little thing. Xu Ning said, "President Hong, I just have some questions to advise you. ”
"I don't dare to give advice, I don't know what the matter is?" said President Hong in a little surprise.
"I'm very interested in how you left JYPE, I wonder if you can tell me some details about that time?" Xu Ning said: "Of course, if you find it inconvenient, then I didn't ask......
"There's nothing inconvenient about this, it's just that I'm curious how you could be interested in this?" Hong Shengcheng asked, touching his nose.
"Do you remember that time when Miss Kim Hyun-ah did a great good deed?" Xu Ning smiled. "At that time, you and President Park Jin-young came to intercede with me, which made me very puzzled......"
"What's so puzzling about this? At most, it just means that I am in JYP, and the tea has not been cooled. Hong Shengcheng said.
"Really?" Xu Ning nodded, "As far as I know, after Jin Jingxu, the former president of S.M., was released from prison, he also set up an entertainment company on his own. I don't get along with S.M......"
"I'm not in the same situation as he is. Hong Seung-sung said: "I just have different ideas with Park Jin-young, not like Kim Kyung-wook at that time, he was imprisoned for S.M's guilt, and with such a history, he naturally won't have any nostalgia for S.M......"
"I see. Xu Ning nodded, "President Hong, you must have encountered a lot of difficulties when you founded cube, right? How did you deal with it at that time, and why did so many people in JYP go with you at that time?"
"What, do you want to be a reporter and have an exclusive interview with me tonight?" Hong Shengcheng said with a smile.
"Don't dare. I'm just out of a junior's admiration and curiosity for my predecessors. Xu Ning also smiled back.
"Hehe, then I'll answer you question by question. Hong Shengcheng nodded, "You should know that when I left JYPE, I was the president of JYPE, and I was in charge of daily operations and other affairs. ”
"Yes. Xu Ning nodded and said, "Didn't they all say that JYPE Company has three giants? You are one of the three giants." ”
"Hehe, what a Big 3. Hong Shengcheng waved his hand. "The earliest so-called Big 3 refers to Park Jin-young. I, and Fang Shihyuk, but at that time, Fang Shihyuk was not from JYP, he was just our partner, and many of JYP's works in the early days were made by him and Park Jin-young, and later they officially became independent and opened a mansion......"
"I know that. Mr. Bang Si-hyuk is now one of the best musicians in Korea. "BighitEntertainmen, which he founded, is still in charge of the music activities of JYP's boy group 2AM. ”
"Yes, this is also from the beginning of the cooperation to the present. Hong Shengcheng said.
"What about later?" Xu Ning said: "Your situation should be different from this Mr. Fang Shihe." ”
"Yes. Later, although Fang Shihyuk set up his own door, the cooperation with JYP has always been maintained, but it is no longer good to be called a JYP3 giant, so the representative of Jung Wook, who later became the senior management of JYP, plus Park Jinying and I, became the 2.0 era of JYP3 giants. Hong Shengcheng said: "That period of time is the most rapid development time of JYP company. ”
"Oh. Xu Ning nodded, and Hong Shengcheng told him about the history of JYP before, but he still didn't mention the main topic.
"2008 should be the year of the limelight of JYP, after all, wondergirls were in full swing at that time, and 2PM and 2AM also achieved extraordinary results, but behind the appearance of prosperity, there was already a crisis. Hong Shengcheng lit a cigar, took a deep breath, and said, "You say, what kind of crisis is this?"
"Crisis? It should be President Park Jin-young's U.S. plan, right?" Xu Ning said, "Hasn't he always been eager to enter the United States?"
"It was really a big problem, and then my departure had a lot to do with it. Hong Shengcheng nodded, "The crisis I said is also related to this, and in the end, I couldn't reconcile it, so I had to leave this place where I had struggled for many years." ”
"Then that crisis, what kind of crisis is it?" Xu Ning said: "The crisis of the prosperous era is very powerful when I think about it......
"Do you think that JYP must have been in a good economic situation at that time?"
"Of course, it's not that Wondergirls ran more than 2,000 commercial performances of various sizes a year,......" Xu Ning said: "With their fame and performance value at that time, even if they can't make a lot of money, the benefits will not be low......
"Yes, at that time, their various commercial performances did make a lot of money for the company, but they couldn't stand the expenses of the rest of the places. Hong Shengcheng said: "At that time, the company launched 2AM and 2PM as a brother group in a row within one year, and in order to quickly become popular with these two teams that were still in the rookie stage, the company's money went out like flowing water......
"I see, the problem is the money?" Xu Ning nodded and said, "But it shouldn't be that serious, right?"
"If it's just South Korea, it won't be too serious, but the U.S. plan of Park Jin-young that you mentioned earlier. Hong Shengcheng said: "The severity of the activities in the United States and the burning of money is beyond the imagination of people who have never tried it......
"Needless to say, this exchange rate issue alone is estimated to be enough. Xu Ning nodded, "Then you can't negotiate?"
"Let's negotiate and delay his American plan?" Hong Shengcheng shook his head, "If the negotiation is effective, then I won't leave." ”
"It seems that President Park Jin-young is really stubborn. Xu Ning nodded, "One thing I don't understand, since activities in the United States burn money seriously, then why is he still so stubborn to carry out his American plan?"
"Everybody has a dream, and his dream is to make a name for himself in the United States and become a superstar in the world. Hong Shengcheng said: "Rain was like this at the beginning, but in the United States, the money was not spent, but the benefits were not good, and he made a name." ”
But this name alone is enough for him to become a superstar in South Korea. Xu Ning said.
"Sort of, it's just barely holding on to the capital overall. Hong Shengcheng said: "The recognition of Asian artists in the American market is low enough, I don't think there is any room for expansion anyway, but he doesn't think so, he thinks it's because the artist's reputation is not enough, in 2008, Wondergirls' "Nobody" gave the impression that it could be said to be popular all over the world, so he insisted on sending Wondergirls to the United States to expand overseas ......markets. ”
"Well, under the circumstances, President Park Jin-young would have made such a judgment, and it was indeed understandable, after all, as you said, at that time, Wondergirls' "Nobody" gave the impression that it could be said to be a global hit. Xu Ning nodded, "Who would have thought that such a Waterloo would happen in the United States......" (To be continued.) )
