Chapter 165
This night, inside the XXX bar in Myeongdong.
"It's been a long time, Master Li. Xu Ning greeted Li Qiwu with a smile, "How have you been doing lately?"
"You look at me like this, can I be considered good?" Li Qiwu pointed to himself and said.
"What's the matter?" Xu Ning looked at Li Qiwu carefully, and sure enough, although Li Qiwu's eyes were still sharp, the tired look on his face could not be concealed no matter what.
"What else can be the problem, the current Incheon real estate is about to become chicken ribs for me, and it is a pity to abandon it if it is tasteless. Li Qiwu sighed, "Fortunately, the current progress in Busan is going well, and I can be regarded as missing the harvest of Sangyu, otherwise I guess now I would have to review it at home in front of those old men." β
"What's going on over there in Incheon?" Xu Ning touched his nose, "Last time I heard from Manager Jin that you encountered some resistance from earth spiders on the Incheon side, but didn't you have Baek Chang-so?
"Baek Chang-so's side, don't move lightly. Li Qiwu waved his hand, "Nengwen Dou tries not to fight, and once this form is used too much, it is easy to become addictive, I don't want to be an underworld boss who only knows how to fight and kill, I still have to compete for the heir of the Li family." β
"That's right. Xu Ning nodded, "Those earth spiders, what are the requirements?"
"Do you have time for the next two days, let's go to Incheon together for the three of us, so that you two can also see the stubbornness of these earth spiders. Li Qiwu waved his hand and said, "You have been to Japan a lot recently." β
"Yes. Xu Ning nodded, "I have indeed traveled back and forth between Japan and South Korea many times recently. β
"Are you aiming at the Japanese market?" Li Qiwu asked, "Now most Korean entertainment companies are aiming there, after all, the Korean domestic market is too small, and the competition is too fierce......
"Sort of, but it's not easy to open up the Japanese market, and the water over there is deep. Xu Ning smiled, "And the overseas market is greatly affected by the policy relationship between the two countries. It's also a big risk, and CCM also threw the supernova to Japan, so free-range, but these kids are also competitive. Although I didn't have much investment, I was able to make a name for myself in Japan......"
"If you really want to enter the Japanese market, you still have to look for Bae Yongjun. Li Qiwu suggested: "He is very good in Japan, not only acquiring DigitalAdventure, but also successfully establishing DATV, a professional entertainment television station. With his help in Japan, your path to Japan will be much easier. β
"Hmm. Xu Ning nodded, "But I see that those big companies are still looking for several large traditional entertainment agencies in Japan to cooperate in the Japanese market, such as S.M is looking for Ai Hui, JYPE is looking for SONYMUSIC, Y.G, it's quite different, looking for a not very famous Undergroundmusic ......"
"The first two are because they have a big family and are listed companies. With strong capital, you can naturally play like this, just the CCM in your hand, you will not go to a large company like Japan to bird you, unless you are willing to lose money and make money for 1 year. Li Qiwu said: "Y.G, I don't understand, this company has always belonged to the type of stuffy work, there is no movement on weekdays, once there is movement, it is a big deal." They'll go for the little-known Undergroundmusic, probably because of their usual business philosophy, but it's definitely not for your company......"
"What about my company, don't you forget. I'm the one who has to leave sooner or later. Xu Ning waved his hand, "When do you want us to go to Incheon with you?" β
"The day after tomorrow, how about it?" Li Qiwu thought about it and said, "Let's stay there for a few more days, take a walk more, and bring Bai Changzhu with us this time, so that he can also prepare." Although I advocate civil fighting rather than martial arts, when necessary, I still have to let these people come out to carry out activities, otherwise some people really think that I am a soft persimmon that can be pinched casually. β
"Hehe, for you to say such things, it seems that these earth spiders are indeed a bit excessive. Xu Ning smiled, and just wanted to say something, the mobile phone rang, and he flipped out his phone and looked: "Sorry, I'm going to answer the phone." Then he walked out of the lounge.
"It must have been a woman calling. Jin Shengwen said to Li Qiwu in the house.
"I guess so. Li Qiwu nodded, and the two looked at each other and smiled.
"What's the matter?" said Xu Ning, who was outside the lounge, into his phone.
"Where are you, why is there so much music. Li Xuanmei on the other end of the phone couldn't help but purse her mouth.
"I'm in a bar, talking to people. Xu Ning didn't intend to lie, and said directly.
"Really, I'm afraid it's talking about something, watching some kind of maid costume performance, right?" Li Xuanmei snorted and said.
"What a mess. Xu Ning hurriedly said: "What kind of maid costume show, I'm discussing business here." β
"Yes, your business is all business, go about your business. Li Xuanmei cut off the phone directly.
"Hey...... This kid, how can you say that you hung up the phone when you hung up?" Xu Ning touched his head, "It's really troublesome......"
Walking into the lounge again, "I'm sorry, I have to go first." β
"What, there's a fire in the backyard?" Jin Shengwen laughed and said, "Look at your anxious look." β
"Go, go, I'll let you know when the time comes, you hurry up and arrange things on your side. Li Qiwu also said.
"These two guys. Xu Ning complained in his heart and left the bar quickly.
30 minutes later, at the door of Li Xuanmei's apartment.
"That kid shouldn't be at home, right?" Xu Ning rang the doorbell for a long time, but the door was closed, and there was no movement inside, and no one answered the phone, so Xu Ning didn't have any rut at all.
"Forget it, let's go back. After wandering outside the door for 10 minutes, Xu Ning shook his head helplessly, and was about to go back, but the door suddenly opened, "I've only been impatient for so long? β
"Are you inside?" Xu Ning looked at Li Xuanmei who was standing at the door. "Then why don't you open the door and answer the phone?"
"That's just to see how long you're willing to wait outside the door. Li Xuanmei said: "It's only been about 10 minutes and I'm impatient to leave, it's really insincere, and ......I don't have the will to repent at all."
"Repentance?" Xu Ning's eyes widened. "Have I done something wrong, and why should I repent?"
"Hey, I don't even know what I've done wrong, so forget it. Li Xuanmei shook her head and prepared to close the door again.
"Wait a minute. Xu Ning hurriedly stretched out his hand to stop Li Xuanmei, "What's wrong?
"No, don't you want to discuss something serious with someone? Why are you here again?" Li Xuanmei said.
"It's because of your unusual behavior on the phone that I'm coming. Xu Ning said: "When I first met you, I saw that you were a very well-behaved and sensible child, why has your temperament become so unpredictable recently?"
"Hmph. Li Xuanmei didn't speak, but turned around and walked into the house, Xu Ning saw this and hurriedly followed.
"How long has it been since you called me?" Li Xuanmei, who had entered the room, sat on the small sofa, "Since I got into college." The number of times you contact me is getting less and less, and you will come to me every once in a while to tutor me in my review, stay for half a day or something, and now? I may not be able to see you once a week, and the last time I saw you was when I went to the underground mall with you to watch a computer game exhibition, and I also asked you to talk to a girl......"
ββ¦β¦ It's a big hassle. Over there, Li Xuanmei complained with a complaining face, while Xu Ning muttered in her heart: "This kid still doesn't understand...... It's a big head...... I'm still talking to girls, where is this......"
"Are you listening?" Li Xuanmei said for a while, looking at Xu Ning's expression. He asked.
"Of course I'm listening, I'll definitely call you often in the future, and I'll take you around as much as possible. Xu Ning hurriedly said: "Xuanmei, I've been busy lately. I just came back from Japan these days......"
"What are you doing in Japan?" Li Xuanmei immediately asked when she heard this.
"I went to investigate the problem of developing the Japanese market, and President Park Jin-young also knew about it, and I even borrowed Oksawa to go to Japan with me as a translator. Xu Ning immediately took out Park Zhenying as a shield.
"Hmm, why haven't I heard of this?" Li Xuanmei frowned, "You took Ze to play oppa as a translator?"
"yes, I was in the water in my brain at the time. Xu Ning hurriedly said: "He is obviously incompetent as a translator. So, this time I went to Japan, and I hired a professional translator, which is much better than Tamadawa's Japanese level......"
"I'll go to the teacher and Zeyan OPPA to confirm this matter at that time. Li Xuanmei looked at Xu Ning and said: "But when you go to Japan this time, I'm afraid it's not just about developing the Japanese market, right? Don't you also investigate and study the problem of maid outfits? Don't be busy shaking your head and denying it, I went to a T-Ara theme cafΓ© with Hyuna a few days ago, and saw Park Hyo-min interacting with fans in a maid costume, and it is currently spreading on the Internet, saying that T-Ara is in full shifts, and 1 maid is dressed in their theme cafΓ© every day to provide fans benefits......"
"You actually went there with Jin Hyunya?" Xu Ning was stunned for a moment, "How's the business over there?"
"Uh...... Business was good, good, better than our themed bakery at the time. Li Xuanmei didn't expect Xu Ning to ask her this instead of answering her words, and couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then said: "Don't want to change the topic, tell me honestly, did you go to a similar place in Japan, so when you come back, you will let T-Ara imitate this set......"
βStop!β Xu Ning immediately waved his hand and said: "Where have you go! First of all, I am such an upright person, but I go to Japan for official business, how can I go somewhere to be chic? Besides, the maid costume is actually an attempt to let T-ARA enter the Japanese market, and you also know that the entertainment style in Japan is still very different from that of South Korea, which is more ...... Alternative,I prefer what 'healing system' ahγ'Moe system' and the like.,And pay more attention to the interaction between ordinary idols and fans.,Rather than a form like our signings.γMeet and greet.,Don't stare.,This is the result of so many investigations in Japan.,So I'm going to let T-Ara try this route and style first.,If they perform well,Then ......"
"So will you send them to Japan?" asked Ms. Lee.
"Definitely, is there any Korean team that doesn't want to go to Japan to attract money?" Xu Ning asked rhetorically, "And as far as I know, President Park Jin-young also plans to send Wondergirls to Japan for activities......"
"It's impossible, the teacher's goal has always been the United States, and he will definitely not let them go to Japan until they have carved out a world in the United States. Li Xuanmei immediately shook her head and said.
"Don't say it so absolutely, do you want us to make a bet?" Xu Ning said with a shake of his finger.
"I won't bet with you. Li Xuanmei immediately shook her head like a rattle, "You have so many flowers...... intestines"
"Where did I come from, don't slander me. Xu Ning looked innocent.
"You still have a lot of flowers, I was going to 'ask you about the guilt', but the topic was pulled left and right by you, where did it go?" Li Xuanmei pouted, "I won't talk to you in the future." β
"You......" Xu Ning smiled and stood there without speaking.
"You really don't talk anymore?" After sitting there for a while, Li Xuanmei saw that Xu Ning was still standing there silently, so she said: "Really, I don't understand any taste, what are you thinking about in your head?"
"It's not like you said you won't talk to me in the future. Xu Ning shrugged his shoulders, "Then I have to pretend to be deaf and dumb there." β
"Let you pretend to be deaf and dumb, tell you to pretend to be deaf and dumb......" Li Xuanmei got up from the small sofa and began to pinch and twist Xu Ning's arm, which startled Xu Ning, "Let go...... Don't make a fuss, Xuanmei, let go ......" (to be continued.) )
