Chapter 117: Am I a Star?
Kim Ho-woo, who had just spent the night with Kim Taeyeon last night, was sitting in the office drinking coffee with a slight sleepiness at the moment.
At that moment, there was a knock on the door.
"Please come in."
Kim Ho-woo raised his eyes and found that it was Lee Jae-hoon who walked in with Wen Jiàn in his arms.
"This is a plan after consultation between the Propaganda Department and the Ministry of Manufacturing."
"Oh? Ready so soon? ”
Jin Haoyu was slightly surprised, he only assigned the task two days ago, but he didn't expect the result to be so soon. But this is also something that can't be helped, after all, it happened suddenly, unlike other project plans that are completed after long-term preparation, in order to seize this gap time, I don't know how many people stayed up all night to work overtime to complete such a plan.
Lee Jae-hoon stepped aside and watched Kim Ho-woo flip through the text in his hand. But the more he rolled his brows, the tighter he wrinkled, and after he finished flipping, Jin Haoyu threw Wen Jiàn on the table, looked up at Li Zaixun and said angrily: "Are you guys joking?" That's why you made this plan to deal with me? ”
Lee Jae-hoon was stunned for a moment, and then he explained as if expected: "Director Kim, you listen to my explanation. ”
"No need to explain, what's there to explain, go back and sue them to redo it!"
Lee Jae-hoon saw that Kim Hao-woo was so insistent that he didn't say anything more and withdrew.
Unexpectedly, after a while, the door of his office was pushed open again, and Lee Jae-hoon and Park Chan-myung, the head of the Propaganda Department, walked in.
"Director Kim." The visitor bowed and said hello before saying, "I wonder what Director Jin is dissatisfied with our plan?" ”
Jin Haoyu frowned and looked at Park Canming and said, "Director Park, where do you say there is no problem with this plan?" ”
He pointed to himself and said loudly, "You asked me to collaborate with Jessica on a song to play a song and perform on a trip?" You're kidding? ”
"Not really." Park Chanming said with a smile: "I know Director Kim doesn't understand, but this is the most suitable method for development and the easiest way to detonate popularity that we have all discussed." ”
Jin Haoyu sneered and said: "I am a maker and a director of the company. Have you ever seen a director or maker of a company standing on stage and singing? ”
Park Canming shook his head and said, "But according to the current situation, Director Jin, you are the most suitable candidate." ”
"Where's the right fit? There are so many male artists in the company, which one is not more suitable than me? ”
"Director Kim, listen to my explanation." Park Canming cleared his throat and said.
"Maybe you don't feel it yourself, but according to our survey, your current topic has been high. The real-time search ranking on NA-VER has always been in the top three, whether it is the current hit of "Infinite Challenge" or the scandal hype between you and IU, it has caused you to be no less well-known than the average star. ”
Jin Haoyu sighed helplessly, this is exactly what bothered him. Originally, he was a good behind-the-scenes worker, but he accidentally became a news headliner, which really made him a little uncomfortable.
At this time, I only heard Park Chanming continue: "Other male artists in the company can be on it, but we took into account Jessica's previous negative image, and we are afraid of causing a storm of public opinion again." When the time comes, the gains outweigh the losses, so it is impossible for SJ and TVXQ, so only Director Jin is suitable. ”?
"Uh..."
Jin Haoyu hesitated, indeed as the other party said, before Girls' Generation stopped its activities, Jessica was the center of public opinion, and she was also the most powerful member, if she had anything to do with other members of the company's boy group, she would definitely be brought up again, causing negative impact, and even her previous efforts would be ruined again.
"Director Kim, you're different. You're not an artist yourself, you don't have a lot of fans, so there's no possible negative impact, plus you're a big topic, and you've worked with Jessica in "Infinite Challenge", so working together again will only increase the topic. ”
Jin Haoyu rubbed his temples with a headache and said, "Is it possible to use other methods?" Can't you contact and cooperate with other female artists or male artists from other companies? ”
Park Chanming shook his head lightly and said: "It's too late, if it's a female artist, FX is now in the active period, and if it's girls' generation, the announcements for the next two months are also scheduled." There is no suitable candidate, and as for other companies, it is already too late to communicate and coordinate the appointment schedule. ”
"SOLO's words..."
Jin Haoyu himself was only halfway through saying it and couldn't go on, because he also knew that it was very unrealistic. With Jessica's current popularity, going solo is just a result, and S.M won't waste resources and manpower on a project that is unlikely to succeed.
"Solo is simply impossible, so after our joint consultation and analysis, only Director Jin is the most suitable person, otherwise we can only give up this project plan."
Jin Haoyu propped his head in distress and looked down in thought.
"Go down first. I'll let you know when I've thought about it. ”
After the two left, Jin Haoyu leaned back in amazement, leaned back in the chair, closed his eyes and let out a long sigh.
Why did things turn out like this? Why is Jessica not someone else? Kim Ho-woo deeply regretted at this moment why he chose Jessica instead of Kim Taeyeon in the first place on the Infinite Challenge, otherwise there would be nothing to worry about now.
What he cares about is not Jessica's attitude, after all, the two should have made it clear, he cares more about Kim Taeyeon's attitude, after all, it involves more than just work.
And he himself is still a little resistant to performing on stage, after all, he feels that he is a behind-the-scenes worker, and standing in the spotlight is not what he should do.
Before accompanying Kim Taeyeon on the stage, it was only a taste, a total of four times, and the purpose was not to become famous, but to help her overcome her phobia of the camera.
Later, starring in "Infinite Challenge" was an accident, which brought him into the public eye, and he now faintly regrets why he agreed to Kim Tae-ho's mention in the first place.
Now that the company has made this kind of plan to treat him as an artist, it really surprised him, and seeing that things are getting bigger and bigger, Jin Haoyu has a headache.
Do you want to become a person like Park Jin-young of JYP, who is also a producer and a singer?
Jin Haoyu shuddered when he thought about it, that wasn't the life he wanted, right? The thought that he would be watched wherever he went made him a little unhappy.
"Forget it, let's ask her what she thinks tonight."
Jin Haoyu muttered to himself, threw the plan aside, and continued with other work. (To be continued.) )
