Chapter 129: Future
The "fight incident" did not have any impact on Li Yiming personally at all. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
There was no surprise on the S.M side, as Wang Xiaoming said, readily accepted his suggestion and issued a clarifying statement together.
Kim Jong-in's company, S.M., believes that the photos circulating on the Internet recently have no connection with its artist, EXO member Kai, and the possibility of forgery and impersonation cannot be ruled out.
And Li Yiming's agent Wang Xiaoming also responded: Li Yiming has never had similar behaviors and actions, and the photos can basically be determined to be forged and framed.
Kim Jong-in himself also issued a statement: He and Li Yiming have no contact in private, and the two parties do not know each other. I sincerely admire Li Yimingxi's proud achievements in the NBA.
Li Yiming himself did not respond, and was photographed by reporters going to the gym to train as usual that morning.
A storm seems to be over, and the originally very exciting news ended without a small splash on the Internet under the denial of both sides.
There are still many fans who persistently believe that S.M and Lee Yiming have concealed the facts, and there are even many enthusiastic people who are "indignant" who think that Lee Yiming threatened Kim Jong-in and forced the other party not to tell the fact that he was hurt.
Although the farce caused by a set of photos is still being paid attention to and mentioned, it is not as boiling as before.
The extremely clear photo was pointed out by people who thought they were smart and posed, otherwise the angle would not have been so clear and even just right to capture Kim Jong-in's side face. And the clothes and even the body shape and appearance of the two who are completely worthy of the number are also considered to be deliberately imitated.
Another part of the people think that all this is all collusive hype, because just after Li Yiming's agent issued a statement, he announced that Li Yiming will sign a contract with the upcoming Future.Entertainment company in the near future, and as a basketball player, Li Yiming, after confirming that he will settle in South Korea, will carry out more publicity and activities in South Korea and even Asia, to promote the spread and development of basketball in the way of communication, to thank the masses for their attention and support.
An official statement seems to have been prepared a long time ago, and using the "fight incident" to advertise Li Yiming's signing is indeed quite like a "premeditated" hype.
The masses, who thought they knew the inside story and the facts, began to insult, but they did not realize that they had unconsciously diverted their attention and did not care much about the "fight incident".
They don't even think about whether a trendy combination like EXO and a more well-known superstar like Li Yiming need such a hype to get attention, as long as they catch a little bit of detail, they think they know everything, and they spit a lot at both sides with their keyboards in a complacent, never realizing that they are just a crowd, and they don't have the slightest consciousness of being a rabble.
This has always been the case for people, especially those who just want to pay lip service to the Internet.
It's like Jin Yarong was criticized and criticized by them for no reason because he behaved casually to Li Yiming on the show before, and even just because the person concerned was a sexy idol, he did his best to be vulgar, and all kinds of personal attacks and bad slander were all greeted to a woman.
And after Li Yiming supported the other party on the show, he scattered and restrained his voice. This group of people who use the keyboard as a weapon and criticize everything that does not suit their preferences has always been like this.
However, the main party, Li Yiming, acted as if nothing had happened, after training and lunch, he walked to Building No. 123-51 in Cheongdam-dong, not far away.
This is none other than the address where Future Entertainment is located.
- Li Yiming has not been to this neighborhood, firstly, his fitness place is in Cheongdam-dong, and it is inevitable to pass by from time to time, and secondly, this company building is located next to the JYP.Entertainment office building at 123-50 Cheongdam-dong, and the two companies are so close to each other.
Unhurriedly walked to his own company, although the exterior is still being renovated, and there is still no time to hang up the signboard, but Li Yiming still thinks that it is much better than the JYP company headquarters like KTV next door.
In fact, this is all psychological factors, and the current two companies just look at their appearance.
Seeing the big English letters "JYP", Li Yiming couldn't help but think of the scene when he parked the car at the intersection that day and let Yu Dingyan, who had been waiting on the side of the road, get into the car. The two went to Hongdae to have a good drink, and the drunk self was carried home by the other party, and the scene of what happened when he woke up naked the next day is still vivid.
Li Yiming shook his head with a smile, shook his head out of his cranky thoughts, and walked into the company step by step.
There was already a front desk at the door, and because I recognized him, I just said hello and let him drive straight in.
Since Future will officially announce its establishment in two days, there is a management meeting today. Originally, Li Yiming didn't want to come, because he was actually completely blind to this piece, and he had long planned to be a hands-off shopkeeper and hand over everything to Wang Xiaoming to deal with, just let his father be an inconsequential supervisor on the side.
Wang Xiaoming repeatedly asked him to come and see, even if he couldn't put forward any opinions, he would just know the directors of his company.
Although he is the largest shareholder of Future, Li Yiming does not hold any substantive position in it, but only participates in this meeting as an artist representative in the form of an audit.
Li Yiming was not late, but when he entered the conference room, the small conference table was already full, Wang Xiaoming, as the president, sat in the center of the top of the conference table, surrounded by a circle of people, but the position on the right hand was suddenly empty.
Seeing Li Yiming push the door in, Wang Xiaoming greeted him with a smile, and even got up and bowed with the surrounding cadres and room chiefs.
"Li Yiming... xi good. ā
"Li Yiming xi!"
"Li Yiming xi!"
"It's good!"
Loud greetings came one after another, after all, the people who could participate in this meeting were the core personnel of the company, and no one did not know that Li Yiming, who only had the title of artist representative, was the actual owner of the company.
Li Yiming was not arrogant, smiled and nodded his head in greeting, beckoned to respond to Wang Xiaoming, walked over slowly from far and near, and naturally sat on the seat on his right.
When the people arrive, the meeting begins.
Wang Xiaoming pretended to cough, he has always been a hanger, he is very serious today, "Everyone is here, so let's start."
"Today is the first formal meeting of our management, although we have known each other for a long time, but in order to get more familiar, we still have a formal self-introduction." Wang Xiaoming skimmed Li Yiming, and when he saw him touching his nose, he couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.
It's all about him, the company is about to be officially announced, and the directors will not be familiar with it, but they will report to him again.
"Let's start with me." Wang Xiaoming stood up, and everyone present smiled.
"I'm Wang Xiaoming, and I'm the president and president of Future."
At the beginning of the president, the ministers stood up one after another to introduce themselves, most of them looked around, and then looked at Li Yiming, the "artist representative", and explained their positions, responsibilities, and scope of work in detail.
Among them, Li Yiming saw a somewhat familiar face, not an acquaintance, but he had a relationship.
It's the bartender at the BLUES bar...... Oh no, boss.
He sat in the second place on Wang Xiaoming's left - the first in line was Li Yiming's father, Li Guoxing. Calling himself Lin Mujin, he serves as the head of the public relations department and the director of the company. This name Li Yiming heard Wang Xiaoming mention, although the shareholding is far less than Li Yiming, but it is also the second largest shareholder of Future, and now the company's entire office building is in his name, but it is rented out at a low price as the company's long-term land.
However, the reason why Wang Xiaoming mentioned him to Li Yiming was because the other party facilitated Wang Xiaoming's acquisition of Pledis: Lin Mujin was the head of the public relations department of S.M, and Han Chengzhu, the founder of Pledis, was the agent of S.M's artist Baoer before founding the agency.
It is precisely because he had a good relationship with Lin Mujin in S.M that he accepted the acquisition from Future, and as a condition, he only took a small share of Future symbolically - you must know that the price offered by Wang Xiaoming is not high, and there are not a few people who are interested in Pledis. A Chinese company named Lehua offered very attractive terms, just by signing a cooperation agreement, it was willing to invest a lot of money, and after taking the shares, it was willing to let Han Sung-so continue to serve as president.
Friendship is part of it, and the more important thing is that Wang Xiaoming and Lin Mujin made a promise that he couldn't refuse.
"Not a mediocre person" This is Wang Xiaoming's evaluation of Lin Mujin, you must know that as a "non-human", his vision has always been picky, and he rarely has a decent compliment to people.
For the rest, Han Sung-so, the former president of Pledis who was merged, served as the deputy director of the artist management department and the artist reserve training department. There are no ministers in these two departments, but two vice ministers with equal powers, the other of whom is the former president of Dream-tea.
Artists are the lifeblood of the entire brokerage company, of course, it can't be managed by one person alone, although this method is not efficient, but at least it avoids the obvious tendency of the two former presidents, so that the resources are inclined to their own original company members.
Li Yiming's father, Li Guoxing, served as the head of the advertising department, which was not favoritism, but as an outstanding talent from the personal studio of the Olsen sisters, Li Guoxing's personal ability was unanimously recognized by the management. You must know that although the Olsen sisters now focus on fashion brands, they were appointed as the presidents of Double Star Entertainment Group as early as the age of eighteen, and Li Guoxing, although he was recruited as a photography talent at the beginning, has always been in charge of advertising planning, and his professional ability is of course undoubted.
After several ministers and deputy ministers introduced themselves, it was finally Li Yiming's turn.
He stood up in the final order, slowly glanced at everyone present, and naturally made brief eye contact with everyone.
"I'm Li Yiming, the artist representative of Future." He only briefly introduced himself, but everyone in the room applauded.
Faced with such a reaction, Li Yiming couldn't help but show a smile, so he had to say again: "Okay, that's the end of the self-introduction, let's talk about business: the meeting has officially begun." ā
Like a command gun, all departments began to report in an orderly manner.
