When the fireworks in Seoul exploded in the sky, in Cheongdam-dong, Ribeira Hotel, a luxurious private room, Lee so-man, who was sitting in the main seat, raised his wine glass and smiled under the colorful glow outside the window behind him: "Everyone, I wish our cause more and more prosperity and prosperity, I will do it first!" ”
Director Li was polite. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info”
"!"
At the huge dining table, there are 7 or 8 well-dressed young and middle-aged people, most of whom have one trait in common - the self-confidence and reserve of successful people.
Those present are the major shareholders or representatives of S.M. Company.
At the beginning of the month, S.M's revenue for the third quarter of 2006 successfully exceeded the threshold of 6 billion won in a single quarter, which is the impact of TVXQ and SJ's popularity since the time of Ahn Woo Seok, and according to optimistic estimates within the company, S.M's total revenue for the whole year in 2006 is expected to exceed 20 billion won.
This is a number that is difficult to achieve since the Internet hit the record industry in 03, coupled with An Yuxi's retirement, so there is naturally reason to celebrate.
However, for a long time, the schedules of shareholders have been staggered, and the holding of the celebration banquet has finally been delayed until the autumn evening.
After a glass of wine and listening to the polite greetings of several shareholders or representatives, Li Xiuman smiled.
Naturally, the banquet was not limited to this private room, but there was also a hall outside that was completely enclosed, and the buffet-style dinner was held by employees of the S.M headquarters, offices and branches in major cities, as well as overseas business and other departments.
S.M may be harsh, but she's never stingy.
Today, he is also very happy that the company's performance is booming, and he himself has gradually begun to grasp the power of the company after some twists and turns, which can be seen from the fact that he presided over the reception of major shareholders in the box instead of Shin Sung-ho, the president and chairman.
However, there are also dissatisfactions.
Among the shareholders present, there was no An Yuxi!
The other party is said to have gone back to his hometown to sweep the grave, but many things, the more simple the reason, the more complex the associations of others.
Thinking about it, he looked to his left, and Kim Young-min, who was sitting there, also happened to look over. The loser, who used to be his biggest opponent and now slowly stopped speaking, smiled at him and raised his glass.
Kim Young-min's heavenly Zhixi is still in a state of half-popularity, fortunately it has not yet reached the point of being hidden, and his ambitious second girl group plan was stillborn because of An Yuxi's beard amputation, and he could only knock out his teeth and swallow it in his stomach, his mood, Li Xiuman knows without guessing.
also smiled and drank a glass from afar, but Li Xiuman's heart was a little low.
Kim Young-min, probably took the fact that An Woo didn't appear at the banquet as a signal!
Especially recently, there has been a trend of cooperation between AWM and YG.
Not long ago, An Yuxi took the initiative to find Li Xiuman and told him that he wanted Bao'er to transform, but in fact, at the beginning, he refused. A dance music diva who lets her sing lyrical songs? Are you kidding! He didn't believe that Boa would become another Baek Ji-young!
This year, Boa's career in Japan has suffered a big setback, but because of TVXQ and SJ's affairs, he has not been able to free up his hands to start Boa's affairs for the time being, and he intends to let Boa'er debut in the United States to fulfill his dream of conquering the United States.
It's just that An Yuxi and YG have been in close contact recently, coupled with the gossip spread by some people with ulterior motives - some people swore that AWM would leave S.M aside and join forces with YG, which made him a little flustered.
The rumors of discord between An Yuxi and Li Xiuman are nothing new, and this has to start from the first half of the year, at that time, Li Xiuman commissioned An Yuxi to write a song of a boy group to use as the title song, but at the same time, he also asked his old partner Yu Yongzhen to write it, after all, compared to An Yuxi, who tested the water men's group songs for the first time, Yu Yongzhen is more experienced and reliable, and sure enough, Yu Yongzhen wrote a song "U" that made SJ from a half-popular to a first-class idol group.
When An Yuxi met Yang Xianshuo at Central University, some rumors came out, saying that because of the song selection, Li Xiuman chose the song of the veteran composer Yu Yongzhen, and did not choose An Yuxi's song, and the two of them had a bitter heart.
When An Yuxi went to visit YG, it was rumored that the two broke up completely, and An Yuxi abandoned S.M and chose YG.
It's groundless, it's not for nothing, the rumors are conclusive, since you Li Xiuman don't like my songs, then I'll prove it to you! Most people agree with this idea.
At the beginning, S.M did not pay enough attention to this rumor, thinking that it was just a disease of ringworm and scabies, and it would drift away with the wind in a few days like ordinary slander, but I didn't expect that this rumor would be so lethal! In just a few days, S.M's stock fell by a few percentage points!
That's not a small amount! At this time, for S.M, which currently has a market value of 40 billion won, even if it falls by 4%, it is equivalent to evaporating 1.6 billion won!
It's enough to make the shareholders feel pain!
Li Xiuman didn't expect that An Yuxi's influence on S.M Company was so profound! Even sometimes he thinks that with his current influence, he may even surpass himself as the founder and leader of the company.
So he euphemistically expressed his meaning to Ahn Woo-seo through Shin Sung-ho - it's not that he doesn't look down on his songs, but Yu Yongjin's songs are better, and the market and the response to the songs speak for themselves, so he can make a statement and reduce the impact.
S.M immediately remediated and issued a statement saying that Ahn Woo-seo had not given up on S.M, and also sent out "intimate" photos of Lee so-man and Ahn Woo-seo to show that the two were friendly.
An Yuxi also took the initiative to make a statement, saying that going to YG was just to exchange hippop music. This kind of words, even Li Xiuman will not believe it, let alone the shareholders with open hearts? A lot of things are like that, and even if you tell the truth, others won't necessarily believe it!
In South Korea, where the economy is not very sluggish, the stock market is very volatile, and it is easy for a company's stock to fall, but it is very difficult to recover.
Therefore, when this incident was encountered, not only Li Xiuman, but also other shareholders and senior executives were extremely painful, it can be said that An Yuxi's name has long been tied to the interests of S.M company, and it is not an exaggeration to say that "one is prosperous, one is lost".
Many shareholders and directors complained to him, which made him annoyed and anxious, did he have to apologize to him as a senior?
How can this make the arrogant Li Xiuman accept? If he really did this, where would his old face go!
No way, as a businessman, for the development and future of S.M company, Li Xiuman still had to make a compromise, in order to show the outside world the intimate relationship between An Yuxi and him, and also to refute the rumors, he specially asked An Yuxi to write the title song of the third new album for TVXQ - "'O' Zheng. Anti. Combine. 》。
Under the unremitting publicity of the public relations department of S.M, this was able to stop the frenzy of stock decline.
With such an imposing name, in fact, the whole album is mainly lyrical songs...... It's just that the title song is "'O' Positive. Anti. Combine. In other words, An Yuxi only wrote a title song for TVXQ.
To be honest, Li Xiuman is not satisfied with this song, but because this is just an exchange of interests, he can't ask too much, mainly because he also wants to borrow An Yuxi's aura to make TVXQ, who has returned after a year, pay more attention.
At the same time, it is also necessary to make up for the relationship with this younger generation who has a bigger and bigger relationship, but as an old entertainment giant, it still has its own reserve, or it is relying on the old to sell the old and look down on the young people, and he can't pull his face.
But An Yuxi didn't particularly want to get close to him, and he didn't want to put a hot face on his cold ass.
In exchange, he could only hope that Bao'er could transform successfully in his hands like Bai Zhiying.
I believe that after the autumn evening, there will be two new topics in the long-dormant entertainment industry.
"Brother Xiuman......"
Just thinking about it, a call from the side pulled his flying mind back, Li Xiuman hurriedly turned his head to look, and a middle-aged man clinked glasses with him, "S.M really has to be in your hands to exert the strongest power!" ”
This middle-aged man is the sixth largest shareholder in the company, alongside Ai Hui, and the chairman of Jiang's Real Estate Industry Co., Ltd.
Last year, when the struggle with Kim Yingmin was at its most intense, he also wooed each other, but unfortunately later because of an accident, they parted ways with each other, and it was not until Shin Sung-ho's intentional fading out recently that he began to regain control of the company, and the other party came closer again.
It is the norm to divide and merge in the shopping mall, and Li Xiuman is not angry because of the other party's estrangement, and when he heard the other party's words, he immediately smiled: "Brother Shi is joking, I'm just making a small fuss, Brother Shi's development this year is enviable!" The real estate industry is changing with each passing day, rising day by day, Mayor Lee Myung-bak's series of policies have dug up a big cake in the industry, and Brother Shi has to wake up laughing in his dreams! ”
Seoul renovation plan, now the last phase of the project has come to an end, by Lee Myung-bak to promote the big construction, also ushered in the most golden period, South Korea's real estate this year, has become the most lucrative industry, Lee so-man said he envy, not exactly touted.
"I was lucky enough to set foot on the east wind." Jiang Shi said modestly, but his expression was full of spirit.
After a while, the atmosphere was re-enlivened, and the glasses were changed on the wine table, and the guests and hosts enjoyed themselves.
