"You. Xu Ning shook his head, "By the way, are you here tonight because of President Park?"

"How do you ...... It's not, whether I'm here or not, what does it have to do with the teacher?" Li Xuanmei said halfway and turned back.

"Come on, the reflex of the first half of your sentence has been revealed. Xu Ning shook his finger and said.

"Hmph, who told you to talk without words, you obviously agreed with the teacher and cooperated?" Li Xuanmei pursed her lips and said, "How can you go back on your word like this? I'm here to complain about the teacher's grievances." ”

"Tut-tut, it's all upset. Xu Ning shook his head and said: "Actually, we didn't sign any contract with President Park, and we just asked about our intentions that day, and we didn't officially reach any agreement, so it's not a backtracking...... In addition, even if it doesn't work out this time, I will still cooperate with President Park in the future......"

"You're going to be arguing. Li Xuanmei waved her fist and said, "Anyway, this time it's your wrong ......"

"Then what do you want me to do? Go to JYPE again and plead guilty to President Park?" Xu Ning said with his hands outstretched.

"That doesn't have to be. Li Xuanmei shook her head, "Anyway, it's good if you don't do such things in the future, it will make me very embarrassed." ”

"Well, I'll tell you the truth. Xu Ning sat down and said: "Cooperation, to a large extent, is also related to the uncertain attitude of the JYPE side, the conditions put forward by the side are very harsh, but they are also very clear, on the contrary, the attitude of the JYPE side is very ambiguous, indicating that President Park himself does not have a clear opinion......

"Are you blaming the teacher?" Li Xuanmei pursed her mouth, "I really don't want you to have any conflict with the teacher......

"There will be no conflict, at most, the cooperation will be canceled in the future, and everyone will not get along with each other. Xu Ning said.

"Hey, why is this happening......" Li Xuanmei's face darkened, "Is there no other way?"

"Is this...... Who knows?" Xu Ning smiled, "But at least for now, it's not to that extent......

Another 2 weeks had passed, and it was the end of November, and that night was in a restaurant near Davichi's dormitory.

"Tomorrow we're officially back. Jiang Minjing drank barley tea and said, "What is your expected goal? How many do you think we can get this time? Can the sales and music sources be better than last time?"

"One or something, I don't expect it. Xu Ning shook his head, "Although you have taken a good ride on "Please Answer 1997" this time, and T-Ara's popularity is also very high, but this period of time is also a period of intensive concentration for the return of various idol teams, and they will largely divert the data that could have been added to your name......"

"But the quality of the songs this time is really good. Jiang Minjing frowned and said: "It's no exaggeration, this time it is definitely Zhao Yingxiu who has taken out all his skills, if he can't get such a famous song, it will be too ......."

"Hehe, you've been debuting for so many years, and you still care so much about this one?" Xu Ning smiled, "This is not a singing competition, whether the song itself is good or not, and how well the singer interprets it, is not an absolute factor, the most critical factor is ...... It's not recognized by this market, and with your cleverness, you shouldn't be unable to see through this. ”

"Is this also a manifestation of the authorities' fandom?" Jiang Minjing was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said.

"Sort of. Xu Ning nodded, "Look down on these things, in the future, your activities will mainly be OST, a small number of high-quality products, film and television activities and more formal commercial activities, these songs and whatever, will gradually decrease in the future......"

"Well, by the way, why are the trainees you have been 'buying' with a lot of money in the past few days? Where have they gone? Have they been hidden by you? The ancients have hidden a few young men, what is the matter with you hiding a few young men? Do you still have any special fetishes?" Jiang Minjing changed the topic and said, making Xu Ning's head instantly full of black lines.

"Can this be the same? Besides, I didn't hide them at all, why am I hiding them?" Xu Ning waved his hand again and again and said: "Go to study and improve, Jin Yuli told me a while ago that although our company has recruited some training teachers and supporting personnel, their professional level is still very limited, so this time I will take those trainees and those supporting personnel, over there, let them have a long experience, and strive to improve a little business level......

"Oh. Jiang Minjing nodded, "You really have a blind idea, see which of them is a better potential stock, and poach people......?

"I'm not worried about this at all, my high-quality trainees have already been piled up, and it will take a long time to digest them, so where are I interested in paying attention to our trainees. Xu Ning shook his head, "We are under-resourced, they are over-resourced." ”

"Okay. Jiang Minjing nodded again, "Every family has a scripture that is difficult to read, and there is a lack of resources, and there is a ...... of excess resources."

"yes. Xu Ning also nodded in agreement, "For example, I have always been short of resources, and you have always been over...... resources."

"What, when did I have a surplus of resources. Jiang Minjing put down the teacup, "The resources you gave me have never been good, right?"

"I mean comprehensive resources, not just your acting resources. Xu Ning hurriedly explained.

After dinner, Xu Ning, who returned to the apartment, turned on his computer and began to download and browse a script outline.

"Writer Li Youzhen is indeed a professional playwright, this speed, this efficiency, this level ......" While watching, Xu Ning couldn't stop nodding.

"Hey, hello. "I was looking at it here, and the phone rang, it was an unfamiliar landline.

"President Xu Ning, have you read the script outline I sent you?" A lady's voice, and Xu Ning also recognized it, officially Li Youzhen, the writer, and hurriedly said: "I'm watching, Ms. Li Youzhen, your efficiency is really high, and you can still ...... in two-line attacks."

"Nothing, it's my job. Writer Li Youzhen was very polite, "What do you think of my outline?"

"Overall, it's the same style as '1997', but I think it's going to be very popular in Korea for at least 3-5 years. Xu Ning began to pretend to be a big-tailed wolf and said: "After all, this is the style of the earliest Korean dramas that can be popular overseas......"

"President Xu Ning, I'm relieved that you say that, and I'm worried that you will think that there are too many similarities to the previous work...... Ms. Li Youzhen said.

"It's nothing, but you really don't need to ask my opinion on these issues, although the two of us have signed a cooperation contract now, but I basically don't interfere with your creation, after all, you are an expert in this regard, I am a big layman......" Xu Ning said.

"You're so polite, you've had so many successful film and television investments before, if you're a layman, you're not an insider. "Although Li Youzhen is a writer with a lot of qualifications, he has always been a variety show writer before, and now he has just transformed into a film and television writer.

"Okay, let's stop flattering each other. Xu Ning smiled: "I hope you can come up with the finished product of the sequel as soon as possible, I have already found a partner, and they are also eager to wear your sequel......"

"I'll do it as soon as possible, but I guess I'll have to wait until after "Please Answer 1997" is over. Ms. Li Youzhen said.

Naturally, "Please Answer 1997" is still a key task. Xu Ning said: "It's not okay." ”

"Actually, President Xu Ning. Ms. Li Youzhen hesitated for a moment, and then said: "I don't agree with Miss Jiang Minjing being the heroine of "Please Answer 997" this time, but you are the funder...... At that time, when I came to choose the heroine, there was a female artist from the acube company, who was not very old, but the understanding and performance of that role were very much appreciated by us at the time......"

"Oh?" Xu Ning touched his nose and said, "I probably know who that female artist is, how about we find a time to talk about this matter carefully another day?"

"Okay. Ms. Li Youzhen agreed, and the two casually chatted a few words and ended the call.

"What should come out is still coming out after all. Putting down the phone, Xu Ning shook his head and sighed, "Gold will shine after all." ”

One week passed quickly, and on this day, Xu Ning was in K· S's headquarters, looking at the regression statistics of Davichi and T-Ara from the previous week, said, "This situation is exactly the same as our previous estimate......

"It's really a matter of time this time, and if it were normal, we would definitely be able to achieve better sales and audio sources. Jin Yuli said.

"If it had been put some time ago, then the popularity of "Please Answer 1997" had not yet risen, and the results might not be much better than now. Xu Ning shook his head and said, "Let's not keep looking for these objective reasons. ”

"Our subjective initiative has been fully mobilized...... "Kim Woo-ri said, "and now it is really burdened by objective factors......

"Okay, we'll talk about this question later, is it 'further study' over there?" Xu Ning changed the topic and said, "How about it, there shouldn't be lazy over there, right?"

"Can you be lazy?" Jin Yuli shook his head, "They all feel a huge gap over there, and now they are all under a lot of pressure......"

"It's good to be under pressure, so you can be motivated, but don't let them get crushed by pressure. Xu Ning said with some worry.

"With me, a full-time 'nanny' over there, can you crush them?" said Kim Woo-ri, shrugging his shoulders.

"That's good. Xu Ning nodded, "How are the other supporting personnel doing over there?"

"This group of people is a bit troublesome, after all, they are all old fritters, and the effect is definitely not as good as those boys. Jin Yuli said.

"In this way, you work hard, and pay attention to that group of people, if there are ...... people in that group who really don't give face," Xu Ning said.

"Then I'll just fire them directly?" Jin Yuli said: "I think this also needs to be done, otherwise those people always think that we are a small company and a new company, and we can't do it without them, and this is not conducive to the ......establishment of the company's authority."

"Not bad. Xu Ning smiled, "Sure enough, it's my right-hand man, you can guess my thoughts." ”

"Come on, you. Jin Yuli smiled bitterly: "This time their joint return, you won't go to the scene to see it once?"

"If you don't go, going will only add to the embarrassment. Xu Ning shook his head and said, "The scene at CCM last time was ......"

"The person you embarrassed last time is not in the plan to return this time. Kim Woo-ri said: "She has been removed by Kim Kwang-so. ”

"Forget it. Xu Ning shook his head, "How about tonight? Do you have time? Let's go have a drink together?"

"That bar again?" Jin Yuli shook his head, "Forget it, that bar has launched a lot of powerful drinks recently, and I tasted a little bit over there last time, and I got drunk with a dead dog, and someone forced me back, I don't want to experience the feeling of a dead dog again." ”

"Hehe, yes, the drink in there is strong enough. Xu Ning smiled, nodded and said.

"Hmm, why do you have such an expression?" Jin Yuli felt a little strange: "It seems that there is some kind of story." ”

"What story can there be?" Xu Ning shrugged his shoulders and said, "Since you don't have time tonight, then I can only go by myself." ”

"Be careful that you can't come back when you get drunk. Jin Yuli said: "Even if you have acquaintances over there, it's not easy to do it." ”

"Hehe, if you don't get drunk, everyone gets drunk. Xu Ning replied inexplicably, and then got up and left.

"What's going on?" Jin Yuli, who stayed in the house, had a question mark on his head: "What kind of wind is this guy smoking?"

9 p.m. inside XXXX Bar in Myeongdong, Seoul.

"It's rare that you're all here tonight, I thought I would be alone tonight. In the lounge, Xu Ning couldn't help but be a little surprised when he saw that Li Qiwu, Jin Shengwen and Baek Changzhu were all there, "What, in a meeting?"

"Nothing will be easy to open. Li Qiwu shook his head and said, "Are you here to drink tonight, or are you here to see people?"
