Chapter 477: Contract in hand
Again, Tang Menglong is a pragmatist, and Tang Menglong went to LOEN not only to sign the idea of KARA, but also to establish a long-term cooperative relationship with LOEN, of course, not with LOEN's agency, but with LOEN's distribution company.
At this moment, in LOEN's practice room, Han Seung-yeon and others are practicing dance hard, in addition to the three of KARA, there are naturally Choi Ji-na and Kim Yoon-ji.
After practicing for more than half an hour, several people also sat down to rest for a while, Park Gyu-ri wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said with some worry: "Seung-yeon, do you say that Menglong Oba can convince President Han?" ”
Since it was related to KARA, Tang Menglong naturally told a few girls about the situation, and he called them yesterday morning.
The three of them have no resistance, and they also believe in Tang Menglong's ability very much, and the two singles released this time have given them a lot of confidence, and they are also looking forward to returning at this moment.
Han Shengyan was of course happy and excited about joining Tang Menglong's company, they all knew by now that Cui Zhina and Kim Yunzhi were Tang Menglong's people who wanted to sign into their own company, not to mention how envious they were when they got the news.
And I don't have a sense of belonging to LOEN, so naturally I don't have too many tangled ideas.
"It should be no problem, after all, we haven't returned now, and the fans are almost scattered, although it's a little sad, but we really don't have much value to LOEN!" Han Shengyan thought about it and said helplessly.
In fact, Han Shengyan said very well, compared to the three of them, Han Zhenrong valued the two little girls sent by Tang Menglong more. There are also Kim Yunzhi and Choi Zhina, who really looked at Tang Menglong before they accepted it.
And at this moment, Han Zhenrong is in his office. The uncle looked at Tang Menglong in formal wear in astonishment, and only replied after half a ring: "You want to enter the entertainment industry??" ”
Tang Menglong nodded. Then he smiled: "So, I want President Han to support me, I want to buy the contract of the three of KARA, after all, there are no trainees in the new company, and when the company is established, it is impossible not to launch a singer!" ”
Han Zhenrong frowned, looking at Tang Menglong and being a little silent, if Tang Menglong was just a producer, Han Zhenrong naturally didn't have much of an idea. But if he enters the entertainment industry, then everyone is an opponent, do you think he can not be entangled?
Seeing that Han Zhenrong didn't answer himself, Tang Menglong spoke again: "In addition to this matter, I have another thing I want to cooperate with LOEN!" ”
"Cooperation?"
Hearing these two words, Han Zhenrong's eyes flashed with a gleam, and then he asked suspiciously.
"Yes, as far as I can see, a lot of my music work is with LOEN. And it's a lot of fun to work together, so after my company is established, I still want to maintain this relationship, and I hope that the two parties can sign a contract. In the future, EK will be my company, and all the records will be released, under the same conditions. will give preference to LOEN's distribution company! Tang Menglong said this very confidently, not at all like the words of a company that has not yet opened.
But such words made Han Zhenrong dare not ignore anything. Because just from the response to the singles in the past two months, it proves that Tang Menglong's production ability is very good. The ability to absorb money is incomparably strong, if VAIN has Park Jinying, then true love supremacy is completely Tang Menglong's personal work, and even let fans know the new Zheng Xiuyan, judging from the sales situation and industry reaction, it is indeed a proof of his ability.
Tang Menglong founded the company, which is indeed a potential opponent for LOEN's brokerage company, but now LOEN's main business is issuance...... Although Han Zhenrong is very concerned about the situation of the brokerage company, it is impossible for him to say that he ignores the essence of the present.
And although Tang Menglong seems to be talking about cooperation, he brought it up with KARA's matter, and the meaning is very obvious.
To put it bluntly, you transfer the KARA contract to me, why don't we establish a strategic partnership relationship in the future, if not...... Hey.
If you want to say what singer Han Zhenrong of Tang Menglong's new company will launch yet, he doesn't care much, the key is what if this guy launches an album by himself? Judging from the current situation, it is definitely a huge benefit, many distribution companies will rush to the door, although the physical album market has shrunk a lot, but last year's color and black also proved that it was still profitable, although it was a charity album, but Tang Menglong did not have so many fans at that time.
But what makes Han Zhenrong speechless the most is, is it necessary? Is it necessary to use such means for the sake of a KARA?
Han Jin-young didn't understand it very well, but he understood that there was definitely no chance to sign Kim Yoon-ji and Choi Ji-na.
"You didn't plan it in the first place, did you??" Han Zhenrong thought for a while, and suddenly asked as he pretended to be a little helpless, and the change in his tone also represented something.
Tang Menglong also had a smile on his face when he heard Han Zhenrong's question, and then shook his head and said: "If the plan had been made, I wouldn't have let them sign in LOEN, in fact, the company's affairs were decided some time ago, in fact, the company is not my business alone, there are two partners!" ”
"Partner? Also an insider? "Han Zhenrong is a little interested.
"Well, Han Chaeyoung and Ms. Ha Ji Won!"
"Nani !!!"
Han Zhenrong's eyes widened, and his brain twitched slightly, not that these two people had ungodly energy, but these two people were indeed beyond his imagination, both of them were old men who had been in the entertainment industry for many years, especially Ha Ji Won was still a first-line actor on the big screen.
These two people plus Tang Menglong's words, at least the network should be no problem, as for the background, don't forget that Tang Menglong's green card was personally granted by the president, which also represents something, even if Tang Menglong didn't have the idea of taking advantage of the situation, but many people still automatically registered him, just like how could the business license be approved so quickly.
There are a lot of actors who open companies, and Han Zhenrong doesn't think there's anything special, but these two people add Tang Menglong. also made Han Zhenrong understand that Tang Menglong would not be playing. At least the two ladies won't talk about playing.
As for why the three of them got together, Han Zhenrong was not interested in knowing.
As for Tang Menglong saying this. It's nothing more than to let Han Jinrong understand that his company is not a leather bag company, as for Han Chaeyoung and Ha Ji Won, when the company is officially running, it will naturally come to the front of the scene, so it doesn't matter if you say it now, even if Han Jinrong reveals it to the media, it is just equivalent to giving EK publicity in advance.
Since Tang Menglong's words have come to this point, at this moment, Han Zhenrong also seriously considered the cooperation issue that Tang Menglong said.
"Well, I can call the shots with KARA's problems. Transfer the original price of their contract to you, but the expenses they have consumed in LOEN in the past few months must be included, this is an explanation to the company, at least it can be said that the company is not doing loss-making business, as for the cooperation you said, LOEN will naturally be very sincere, by the way, and your sister Lee Ji-eun is about to debut in a few months, are you interested in being a producer? Han Zhenrong decisively agreed to Tang Menglong's request. At the same time, Lee Ji-eun was deliberately mentioned.
Tang Menglong shook his head and smiled: "The producer doesn't have to, but the debut song, there is a song in preparation now, and it should be written after a while!" ”
Han Zhenrong nodded. I'm still very happy about this statement, and at the same time, I don't bother about KARA's affairs anymore, and to be honest, he doesn't care much about them in the first place. On the contrary, I only care about the trainees who have not yet signed, after all, the teachers in the company say that they have great potential.
And KARA was originally signed by Tang Menglong at the beginning. And LOEN only agreed to build a good relationship with him, and now he wants to take people away. It's just that after looking forward to it for a few months, it turned out to be empty, and Han Zhenrong was a little helpless.
Then Tang Menglong directly offered Han Zhenrong a price of 380 million, the fee paid by KARA to DSP for the subcontract, as well as the signing fee of the three people, plus the consumption of these months.
Tang Menglong is still very generous, and there is no need to worry about anything with LOEN, as for Han Zhenrong, he naturally doesn't value the tens of millions, but after all, it is a formal company, it is impossible to say that if you give me a little bit, I will give you people, at least what my company pays, you can't lose a cent.
Han Zhenrong didn't have any opinion on this price, and soon asked people to transfer the file, and also let Han Shengyan come to the office, and then went through the procedures for transferring the contract directly with Tang Menglong, Tang Menglong also happily transferred the money directly to LOEN's account, of course, the money was used in the company's account, and Han Caiying was contacted.
As for KARA's contract, Tang Menglong will also re-sign, after all, the original contract is like music, and Tang Menglong has also signed it, but Tang Menglong is not in a hurry for the time being.
Everything is very fast, in addition, Tang Menglong also used the identity of EK president to sign a simple contract with LOEN, in the next six years, under the same conditions, Tang Menglong will give priority to LOEN as the distribution partner.
When everything was done, it was three o'clock in the afternoon, and with the contract of Han Shengyan and the three of them, Tang Menglong went to their practice room.
"Dream Dragon Oba!" ×2.
Choi Ji Na and Kim Yun Ji saw Tang Menglong and the four of them walking in, and shouted with some excitement.
Tang Menglong smiled at them, waited until the four of them entered the practice room, and then gathered the five of them together, and then said: "From today on, you don't have to practice in LOEN for the time being, I will rent a dance practice room in Mudong for you temporarily, as for the company, it is still being renovated and renovated, and you can move in in about three months, you can hold on for the time being, Shengyan and the three of you will temporarily move out of LOEN, as well as Yunzhi and Zhina, the house here can also be returned, The five of you can temporarily rent a bigger house in Mudong or near the company, and as for the money, Zhina will use the ones I gave first, three months should be enough! ”
In the past, Tang Menglong would stuff everyone into LOEN because of KARA, but now that KARA has been signed by himself, Tang Menglong naturally will not say that he will leave people here for LOEN teacher training, and LOEN will naturally not say that he will be more attentive.
"Don't worry, these are trivial things, but can Oba take us to the company in the future?" Park Gyu-ri responded to Tang Menglong very seriously, and then asked curiously.
At this moment, Han Shengyan was very happy to be able to go to Tang Menglong's company. For her, it's definitely something to be happy about. After all, there is a good saying, close to the water...... Ahem.
For those who want to leave LOEN. There is nothing sad about them, and except for Kim Yunji, who have been practicing for many years, even if they don't have a teacher, they know what to practice, as long as there is a place to practice, it's OK.
But at the moment, they are really curious about where Oba's company is.
"Of course you can, but Oba has something to do in a while, so I can't take you there for the time being, but I'll give you the address. You can go over and take a look for yourself in a while, by the way, Shengyan's contract for the three of you, I will have someone redraw it in a few days, and then call us, I will let people do it in a while, and it should be rented tomorrow! Tang Menglong thought for a while and said to the three of them, as for the contract, she was naturally going to hand it over to Han Caiying, after all, she had to be professional. As for the things on the shares, Tang Menglong will not say that he will break the rules, but he will give them the right to adjust the contract, which is also more humane.
As for the practice room. Tang Menglong was naturally ready to let someone who decided to join the company do it.
Although I would love to spend a little more time with the five beauties, MBC's press conference started at five o'clock, and now it's almost four o'clock. Tang Menglong was also ready to go over early.
Han Shengyan and the others all went downstairs with Tang Menglong, and then watched him drive away.
…………………………………………………………
MBC's "Birth of a Family" has announced the filming plan of the other party some time ago. The planned release time is mid-June, and the first shooting time is in April. Although the interval is a bit long, the main reason is to do more publicity work, and it is the first outdoor reality show shooting, and there will be more discussions in the post-editing at that time.
And SBS and KBS reality shows are very hot, but MBC doesn't, the fake marriage show can only be regarded as half, after all, everyone knows that it's fake, and it's really not true if you want to say 'true'.
Therefore, the emergence of the birth of the family has naturally attracted a lot of media attention, and many of the guests who participated in this show have been exposed, such as Liu Zaishi, Yin Zhongxin, Jiang Dacheng and others, of course, the number of people exposed is only about half, but after today's press conference, I believe that all the guests will be exposed, and a lot of attention will be formed at that time, in fact, it is precisely because of the participation of Li Xiaoli and Tang Menglong that the production team decided to hold a press conference and shoot the show in April. In this way, there will also be enough time to brew publicity, so that the audience and fans can look forward to it, which is a bit of a hunger marketing flavor.
At about half past four in the afternoon, Tang Menglong arrived at the parking lot outside the Yeouido MBC building, and there were few people outside at the moment.
Tang Menglong is still wearing a formal suit today, a suit and a white shirt, although this kind of dress is not fashionable, but it looks mature and atmospheric, after all, Tang Menglong's figure is dressed like this, which can set off such lines.
This is Tang Menglong's second time coming to MBC, the first time was naturally when he was recording a music program, before he went in, there was a staff member outside who brought him a microphone, and then Tang Menglong walked in from the door, looking at the red carpet on the ground, and the photo area not far away, his mind was full of question marks.
Because there are not many people in the hall at the moment, only some staff members who occasionally walk by, a few security comrades not far away, and of course, some VJs outside, it looks like they should be shooting? Still not filmed?
"Could it be that I came early?"
Tang Menglong thought about it, and suddenly looked down at Liu Zaishi not far away, so Tang Menglong walked over directly, but instead of the red carpet, he walked directly from the front of the photo area, and he didn't even go up to the platform in the photo area, as for the man with long hair and a mobile phone standing in front, he had to let Tang Menglong stand up and take pictures, but Tang Menglong glanced at him and ignored it directly.
"Brother Shi, didn't you say that it would start at five o'clock? I don't see anyone, you're cheating me, aren't you! Tang Menglong walked directly to the center of the red carpet and glanced at the huge propaganda board, on which there was also an image of Tang Menglong's head embedded in the cartoon character, which made him a black line.
Liu Zaishi was also speechless, and said helplessly: "I don't know, this is how I came when I came!" ”
"Tang Menglong XI, can you please take a promotional photo?" Just as Liu Zaishi was talking, the long-haired man who was holding his mobile phone before came over and asked weakly.
Tang Menglong glanced at him speechlessly, then looked at the mobile phone in his hand, and then said very seriously: "Are you kidding me?" ”
Tang Menglong's reaction frightened the man, and he hurriedly turned around to look at the PD Zhang He who was standing with VJ, Zhang He also looked like he was in his forties and looked quite ordinary, and he didn't expect this to happen with the carefully arranged setting.
Fortunately, at this time, Liu Zaishi said: "Let's take two photos here, why are you two together, it was too embarrassing when I was alone just now!" ”
Hearing Liu Zaishi's words, Tang Menglong still didn't refute, it could be regarded as giving face to this good old man, and then he hooked up with Liu Zaishi for two chapters, and the long-haired man breathed a sigh of relief, and then ran to the side.
"Why, why are you so lonely!"
At this moment, a woman's voice came from the door, Tang Menglong and Liu Zaishi both turned their heads, and then saw Li Xiaoli walking in a red deep V backless evening dress.
I have to say that it makes sense for Lee Hyori to be called a sexy goddess by Koreans, at least this dress is very sexy.
Unlike Tang Menglong, although Lee Hyo-ri felt magnificent, he still stood on the stage and took so-called propaganda photos, and especially emphasized the shooting of the back. (To be continued......)
