Section 47 Men Over Flowers It's girlhood
Stepping on the long-lost land of South Korea, only Xiao Yue came to Incheon International Airport to pick up Lu Xiaosong, but the two brothers met but did not have time to greet each other. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
"The Silly Hatter has decided to release a new album for Shaoshi, whether it is regular or mini I don't know for the time being, and we can't be sure until the trailer and the sound source come out. Park Zhenying's side has decided to let WG debut in the United States after the concert in Thailand in early February this year, and is willing to exchange American resources with us. The plans of other companies' new girl groups are almost completed, Hong Shengcheng asked if we would also cultivate a new girl group, and the shares in his hand seemed to be pressed hard by Park Zhenying, and asked if we could take over? ā
"How much shares does Hong Shengcheng have in JYP?"
"About 15 percent or so."
"What about Park Jin-young?"
"Originally, there were about 30%, and during this time, in order to prepare for WG's entry into the United States, some of them were sold, but at least there were more than 25%."
"Talk to him and ask him to transfer the part of the shares that were originally promised to us 5%, which can be at a premium of 20%, plus Hong Shengcheng's part, we have to confirm the identity of JYP's second largest shareholder."
"What about the resources of the United States?"
"I'm mixed with Hollywood, not Grammys, tell Park Jin-young that you have to eat your meal bite by bite, don't be delusional."
"As soon as WG leaves, JYP will have no girl group to support the field in China, should we?"
"This is imperative, let's our own trainees step up their practice and be prepared. I have to go to DSP, they and Silly Hat are the only companies that have two girl groups in the second hand at the moment, and we can't compare to that. ā
"Yes, the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and the old brokerage company is there, and this last false fire is enough for us to drink a pot."
"How do you know I'm digging the foot of the wall?"
"Nonsense, I still don't know you?"
The two brothers looked at each other and smiled, all without saying a word.
"Are you not going back for the Chinese New Year this year?"
"Let's talk about it when I look like a person, I don't even have a girlfriend, how can I go back?"
"Forget it, whatever you want. I'm leaving. ā
"I'm back at work. By the way, what time will "Twilight" be released in South Korea? ā
"January 12, a week after the premiere of "Boys Over Flowers."
"Don't worry, I'll organize the whole company to support you. You remember calling your crew, too. ā
"Got it."
In fact, Lu Xiaosong doesn't care about the box office in South Korea, now "Twilight" continues to sweep the North American box office, and the European market is also unique, coupled with the Chinese mainland market with a wide open door, South Korea with a population of 50 million, and extremely xenophobia, that bit of meat is honestly not enough to stuff your teeth.
You must know that now only at the North American box office, "Twilight" has broken the record of small-budget films, reaching 370 million, and if this momentum continues, there is no pressure to break through 450 million, and 500 million is not hopeless. The global overseas box office of 800 million is guaranteed, and with the mainland of China, it is not a dream to break through 1 billion.
The media is now vigorously analyzing that "Twilight" made at least 400 million yuan this time, and saved enough start-up funds for the next movie without any investment. In order to maintain the company's stock price, the director team is already discussing hiring Hollywood's top special effects team, anyway, in February this year, the sequel will definitely start filming.
These problems are not what Lu Xiaosong cares about now, even if "Twilight" has been regarded as a cash cow by the debt-ridden Summit Entertainment, it can't distract Lu Xiaosong from the slightest. At this moment, he was standing at the door of a slightly dilapidated entertainment company, and the hostess at the front desk had her eyes lit up when she saw him, and during this time, the posters of F4 of "Boys Over Flowers" were all over the street.
"Hello, Mr. Lu, have you made an appointment with the president?"
"No, I just returned to South Korea, and I have something important to ask you President Li, please report it."
"Okay." Miss Manners quickly dialed the phone, and after a while, she smiled and said to Lu Xiaosong: "The president, please go up, I will open the elevator for you." ā
"Thank you." In the excessive enthusiasm of Miss Manners, Lu Yu came to the door of Li Yanhao's office.
"Yo, isn't this Brother Lu? Rare guests. What wind brought you here? ā
"Contemptible people are now your company's food and clothing parents, why can't you come? President Li, Kara's last mini album earned hundreds of millions? You've taken it to train a new girl group, and I'm not going to explain it here. ā
Lu Xiaosong's words were half-true, and Li Yanhao thought that Park Kuili blew the pillow wind on him, so he couldn't help but be a little embarrassed. Last time, Lu Komatsu helped Kara and the three of them release a mini album, and after the release at the end of the year, he also made a small profit for DSP, after all, there was no competition in the market at that time. But Li Yanhao has been slow to come up with the follow-up song, but has transferred all the funds to the preparation of the new girl group.
"Whereever, don't get me wrong. We're definitely going to come up with a follow-up, but it's not ripe yet. ā
"Okay, I'm not here to collect debts today, so President Li will keep the little money for himself. Since your company is not optimistic about Kara, why don't you transfer it to us? ā
"Misunderstanding, misunderstanding. After all, kara also creates benefits for the company, so how can we not pay attention to it? It's just that the company's board of directors has arranged an annual plan, with different emphases and different emphasis. ā
"Okay then, I'll send President Li a message for free. JYP's President Park plans to let WG enter the U.S. market in February, but when the domestic market gaps, I wonder how President Lee plans to fill it? ā
"This ......" Li Yanhao couldn't help but have a headache, as soon as WG left, the popular girl group in the market was left with Shaoshi and Kara, and when he was young, he was now hidden in the snow, and the only one who had activities was Kara, the only seedling left. If you tilt resources to Kara, the debut of the new girl group will inevitably be delayed, and other companies will definitely launch newcomers at that time. But if you continue to let Kara go out to run commercial performances, this master is obviously not so easy to dismiss. People have invested so much money, it is impossible not to ask for a return of capital.
"President Li, I kindly remind you that there is an old saying in Huaxia that you can't have both fish and bear's paws. If you are not greedy enough, be careful that the bamboo basket is empty. ā
"Director Lu has any lofty opinions, so you might as well say it directly." Li Yanhao also saw that Lu Xiaosong must have already calculated it here, so he simply had a showdown.
"Five billion, 20% of the shares of DSP."
"Impossible." Li Yanhao didn't think about it, he refused directly, he only had less than 30% of the shares in his hand, how could he get 20%.
"That's very simple, anyway, the contracts of Kuili, Nicole, and Zhiying are in our company, and from now on, our company has decided to give them paid leave, and all commercial performances will be postponed indefinitely."
"Alas, Director Lu, don't be impulsive, there is something to discuss. Don't say that there are more than 5 billion shares, even if it's worth it, I can't take it out. ā
"So how about this, five billion, you transfer kara's brokerage contract to us, and we and your company add kara, how about 721 splits?"
"Well." Li Yanhao was a little moved. He is not unclear about the situation of Champion Entertainment, there are many trainees under it, but the company has no experience in preparing a women's group. Park Jin-young and Hong Seung-sung each had a ghost, and no one had time to help him, so they paid attention to Kara.
Looking at their own side, the directors of the company all agree that the newly prepared large-scale girl group is better than Kara in terms of appearance and potential. If you can really use Kara to exchange a sum of money, it's not impossible to build a new girl group, but this share needs to be mentioned.
"Director Lu, isn't this a little too low?"
"We don't need any resources from your company, just borrow some contacts, and it's already very preferential to give 20% for nothing. Even if you buy all of Kara, one person will be enough to give a billion. ā
"Alas, add more, add more, and I'll have to explain to the board of directors." Li Yanhao begged bitterly.
"Okay, add another percent, but I'm going to pick a team of 20 people from your company, and you are not allowed to interfere."
Li Yanhao thought about it for a while, the company's senior management all have shares, and they can't dig it out, as for the employees below, they can just recruit them after leaving.
"Okay then, just do what Brother Lu says, I'll call Kara back to sign the contract. By the way, do you want to take a look at our new girl group, it can definitely become popular. ā
Lu Xiaosong smiled slightly, isn't it a rainbow group. If you want to choose the most tragic of the three generations of girl groups, it must be the rainbow. As soon as she debuted, Kara became popular inexplicably, she couldn't get any resources, she struggled on the five, six, seven, and eight lines, and waited until the next four generations and five generations of girl groups debuted one after another, and the second and third generations of girl groups disbanded one after another, but only Rainbow had no personnel changes since the beginning of her debut, and she persisted to this day, which is really a miracle.
The seven beautiful girls bowed to themselves and said hello, Lu Yu glanced at it, to have a figure, to have a good look, not to be popular, that is the responsibility of DSP. But it's okay, even people with companies, sooner or later, it's Lao Tzu.
Kara, who was running a commercial show outside, was urgently called back, and Lao Zhao, who was born in DSP, was responsible for selecting a team of 20 people, these are grassroots backbones who have accumulated a lot of work experience in DSP but have not been promoted, and after getting the promise of a 30% salary increase, they have expressed their willingness to change jobs, and the last 20 places are not enough points, and they almost fought up, almost making Li Yanhao half angry.
In South Korea, there is a lot of pressure on working men to support their families, and the average employee's monthly salary is only about 100,000 won, and a 30% salary increase is definitely not a small amount, and it is attractive. In the end, Lao Zhao took away 26 people, and the extra 6 didn't even want severance pay, so he resigned directly.
Before Kara, who was confused, understood what was going on, she was announced by Li Yanhao that she would be transferred to Champion Entertainment, but fortunately, it was not something difficult to accept. The five girls happily followed Lu Xiaosong out to eat, this is not once or twice, it is almost a routine.
"Oba, where are we going to eat this time?"
"Isn't that almost there?"
"Ah, I know, there is a Chinese restaurant here, very famous. I'm afraid I can't book this point. ā
"Is it true? Hora? ā
"yes, yes."
Park Kuili sat in front, listening to the four younger sisters talking in the back, and then looked at Lu Xiaosong, who was sitting in the co-pilot, and felt a little incredible.
Just now, Champion Entertainment directly came to a bus and a brand-new nanny car, picked up the job-hopping employees and Kara, and the car drove out of the DSP gate, Park Kuili felt a little unreal, she has been in DSP since she was a trainee, and now she has been transferred to Champion Entertainment, as if she and these sisters, since they were rescued by Lu Xiaosong Hero in the bar, the trajectory of life has changed incredibly.
"Don't worry, the seat has already been booked." When he arrived at the place, Lu Xiaosong pushed the door and entered.
"Oba, you're here." A young girl had been sitting in the box for a long time.
"Sung-hee?" Park Kyu-ri and Han Seung-yeon were dumbfounded on the spot, and as for Nicole, they had already jumped up and hugged Kim Sung-hee.
At the dinner table, Park Kyu-ri, Han Seung-yeon and Kim Sung-hee chattered non-stop, Nicole listened with a smile on the side, but her mouth was not idle, and she ate one piece of beef after another. Gu Hara and Jiang Zhiying couldn't interject, so they feasted on a table of dishes, but Lu Xiaosong could see that Gu Hara's eyes were hidden in his heart, although he covered it up well.
"Okay, move quickly after eating, the dormitory has been arranged for you, just live opposite the door with Cheng Xi, if you have anything to say, I'll talk about it later, the dishes are cold."
"Sung Hee also lives with us?" Han Shengyan was a little unconvinced.
"Ernie, your news is too far behind, I'm a trainee of Oba now."
The five of them looked confused.
"You're back to Oba as a trainee? Didn't your parents disagree? ā
"Hee-hee, with Oba coming forward, of course everything will be fine."
Park Kyu-ri and Han Seung-yeon glanced at each other, not knowing whether to be happy or sad.
"Kuili, you will release a follow-up song in February, and after the song, the company will help you prepare a new album, which is expected to be released in the second half of this year, and at that time, major companies will launch new girl groups, you have to work hard."
"Don't worry, Oba, you won't be disappointed." Han Shengyan hurriedly replied.
Back in the dormitory, Han Seung-yeon and Park Kyu-ri lived in one room as usual, leaving three small ones, one room for each person.
"Ernie, you said it would be great if Sung Hee could come back."
"Don't talk nonsense, Nicole doesn't care, how bad it is for Hara and Ji-young to hear. Finally, the team has made some progress now, but there can be no more big messes. ā
"Of course I know, Oba finally transferred us to his company, and of course I can't mess with him. I decided, I'm going to confess to Oba on Valentine's Day this year. ā
"What?"
"Hee-hee, are you nervous? Aren't you usually very hard-mouthed? ā
"Where? I'm just reminding you that we're not yet in a relationship where we can fall in love. ā
"Hehe, you just continue to die with a hard mouth, and you will regret it when the time comes. Now that DSP doesn't care about us, of course I'm going to pursue my own happiness. However, if you'd like to join me, I could consider making a small one. ā
"Ignore you, what crazy things are you talking about."
"Didn't you see the look in Sung Hee's eyes when he was eating? She told me a long time ago that Oba has a lot of women in Huaxia, and we can only survive in the harem if we hold together. ā
Park Kuili covered her head with a quilt, looking like she was covering her ears and stealing the bell. Han Shengyan sighed, when is this, still holding on to the goddess's shelf, really joining Oba's company, can you still stop so many female trainees? Really.
