Chapter 435: YG
readx;
In the morning, the sun is shining brightly from the east bank of the Han River, dragging the shadow of the city to rise in the sky, Deyang Building, Mapo-gu, Seoul, YG trainees who rushed to the company early to practice, found that their president Yang Hyun Suk came down from the 4th floor more than ten times in just 2 hours after the company opened the 'door', always looking at the side of the road, as if waiting for someone, even in the company, he couldn't stop for a moment, and walked back and forth between several floors with his hands behind his back, and occasionally he could hear his sigh. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
YG doesn't have many trainees at the moment, so it didn't take long for the president's anomaly to spread to everyone's ears.
The time came to more than 9 o'clock in the morning, and during the practice break, I saw the president coming down from the upstairs again, and a boy with squinting eyes and looking eccentric and 'fine' stabbed his companion who was also squinting at his side: "Dacheng, what is Yang Ju's 'flower' doing?" ”
The boy named Dacheng shook his head, and then asked a tall boy not far away in a low voice: "Shengxian, you have a good relationship with SE7EN's seniors, have you heard him say who is coming today?" ”
"No......" the boy shook his head in confusion.
Dacheng was about to say something more, and the quirky little eyes beside him who began to speak whispered: "Let Brother Zhilong inquire, Yang Ju's 'flower' likes him." ”
"Shhhhh......h Speaking of which, what about Zhilong? ”
In YG company, Yang Xianshuo has many nicknames, Yang Ju 'flower' is one of them, speaking of which, this nickname is still taken from KBS's recent hit drama - "Nineteen-year-old innocence", in which the 'female' protagonist is called Yang Ju 'flower'...... And then...... Well, that's it.
Autumn is well advanced at high latitudes. The sun cast a ray of light from the trapezoidal spacing of several buildings in the distance, but it could only bring a short period of warmth, An Yuxi, who was wearing a peaked cap and a mask, tightened his clothes and looked at the so-called building that was not tall in front of him.
Deokyang Building is already an old building in Mapo-gu, and the traces of rust on the exterior wall are mottled everywhere, starting from the two 'gate' pillars on the opposite side of the road and extending to the two sides of the stairway inside, just like the previous SM company, which is covered in graffiti.
Some of them are left by fans, and some are the handwriting of company trainees, these graffiti look very unsightly, and the already slightly dilapidated building is set off by them more and more messy, but looking at them, An Yuxi is a little envious.
They look inconspicuous, but for a brokerage company, it is a kind of glory, AWM even if you want to have it now, no one will leave a handwriting on it for the time being, on the one hand, the building property is not allowed, on the other hand, it is also weak, fans do not have such a concept!
It is only when AWM's name grows deeper and deeper among fans over time that they organize and leave evidence of their existence on it, just like SM's former 'door' and back 'door', those "medals" that have continued from the White Army era to the present day!
Shaking his head, putting aside these thoughts for the time being, An Yuxi walked into the big 'door'.
Then, he was surprised to see a boy in the corridor on the first floor, also wearing a peaked cap, lying on the ground with his ass pouting, trying to draw something on the wall.
It doesn't look like a fan, maybe it's a trainee!
Thinking about it, An Yuxi walked over, and the boy who heard the footsteps turned around and found that he didn't know someone, so he continued to complete his masterpiece without interest.
The graffiti drawn by the boy is a small figure with large limbs and a wild drag, and the villain is holding a sword diagonally in his hand, which has not yet been completed, and he does not know what he is drawing.
Stunned for a moment, without a clue, An Yuxi didn't think much about it, just approached the boy and asked, "Hey!" Boy, can you tell me what floor YG is?"
The boy was stunned, "Go up the stairs, the 2nd to 4th floors...... Uh, are you new to the company?"
An Yuxi 'touched' the mask on his face, and then said in a muffled voice: "Hehe, sort of, there's something going on here."
The other party obviously didn't hear his voice, and when he heard that he had just come to the company, he hurriedly greeted him very familiarly: "Come on, come on, you also leave Mobao, and in a few years, maybe this place will become a resort for your fans to visit!"
The boy is very familiar, and he didn't allow An Yuxi to push back at all, so he enthusiastically stuffed the pen over.
Such a playful thing, An Yuxi hadn't done it for a long time, and he didn't bother to refuse at the moment, so he smiled, and drew another sword where the other party hadn't finished drawing.
"Yo, buddy's art style is cartoon...... Oh oh, draw another sword? It seems that you are also a person in my way, so you put the tips of the two swords together...... Yes, yes, that's it......"
According to his command, An Yuxi finished drawing and was about to put away the pen, but the other party continued to ask: "Eh, buddy, I see that you are much more skilled than me, do me a favor, draw a chrysanthemum 'flower' on the tip of the sword!"
"Huh? Why do you want to draw a chrysanthemum 'flower'?"
Does the chrysanthemum 'flower' have any special significance?
An Yuxi was very puzzled, the boy smiled, and did not answer, and when he finished painting suspiciously, he took the signature pen and wrote the word "Yang" on the graffiti under the two sword tips and chrysanthemums!
I don't know why, An Yuxi suddenly had the illusion of getting on a thief ship, but he couldn't say why.
After writing the word Yang, the boy admired himself a few times, then turned around, stretched out his hand to An Yuxi, and said with a bright smile: "Happiness and hardship, everyone will be good friends in the future, get to know me, my name is Quan Zhilong!"
Inside the YG company, the space is small.
Deyang Building is not a building that covers a large area, the extreme pressure on space, probably a common problem of old office buildings, YG plate down the 2nd to 4th floors, it has been renovated, adding some practice rooms and equipment rooms, for trainees to practice and music production.
Coming from downstairs, although there was no specific visit, but after a quick glance, YG still left a deep impression on An Yuxi - narrow, 'gloomy' and cold!
The location of the building itself is not good, and there is no financial resources to design ventilation and lighting systems like SM company, so it is naturally not as good as AWM's company, and the corridor between each floor and row of rooms is spacious and cannot accommodate two people walking side by side, and there are no lights in the corridor, and the depth seems to extend into the darkness.
There are not many people in the company, and it is said that the staff and trainees add up to no more than 20, which is probably a kind of nai!
At present, many brokerage companies in the Korean music industry, in addition to companies such as SM that have good profits and have successfully listed and financed, or companies such as JYP and DSP are generally optimistic about their development potential and can attract investors to get investment, the general survival status is extremely difficult.
The oppression of the company and the lack of resources make many middle- and lower-level artists unable to support their daily consumption, which also forms a unique nightclub culture in Hongdae and other places - many artists are forced to live under pressure and have to go to the nightclub to make money, otherwise they will not be able to persist in their careers.
Many people think that it is easy to start a brokerage company, in fact, if an unfamiliar industry does not have enough contacts, it is really difficult to start everything, if An Yuxi did not have such a background at the beginning, I am afraid that for a long time, I will have to live a similar life.
The topic is far away, and I won't mention it much.
Yang Hyun-seok enthusiastically took An Yuxi up to the 4th floor, which belonged to his office, and immediately ordered Kwon Zhilong to help chat with An Yuxi, and he personally went down to prepare drinks and other entertainment things.
Yang Hyun-suk's office also continues the company's 'cramped' environment, with small space and insufficient lighting. The interior furnishings are very simple office standard configuration, a computer, a desk, a few chairs, the only difference is that there is an extra cabinet behind the desk. Trophies are placed in the cabinet grille.
Ahn Yuxi looked at it for a moment, it was the music award that Yang Hyun-seok had won during the group "Seo Tae-zhi and the Children", as well as the honors achieved by YG's artists over the years.
On a chair behind him, Quan Zhilong was awkwardly sitting on pins and needles, and he didn't know how to put his eyes.
Time has passed since An Yuxi took off the mask, and there was no need for Yang Xianshuo to reveal his identity, more than ten minutes had passed, and after the initial surprise and disbelief, there was only apprehension left in the bottom of his heart.
He himself can't tell if he is lucky, or he is particularly unlucky today, the person who accosted him casually is the one he admires, and he still talks a lot of nonsense in front of him, but sadly, he obviously began to realize that the other party was dressed suspiciously, how could he be stupid and refute it?
Quan Zhilong leaned on the back of the chair depressedly and bumped into it, and the sound of the bang made An Yuxi over there turn around, exactly the same as in his impression, smiling beautifully, but those eyes ...... Why does it feel so hateful!
Looking at his depressed appearance, An Yuxi gently tapped the glass on the grille of the collection cabinet, the glass trembled slightly, and under the change of light and shadow, those trophies seemed to be shaking.
"Quan Zhilongxi, when will your trophy be placed on this?"
Quan Zhilong didn't know if he was making fun of himself, and he didn't know how to answer for a while, so he had to laugh dryly, but in the end, he was a teenager, and after being embarrassed for a moment, he still whispered: "Yang Jun said that I will be able to make my debut next year!" ”
An Yuxi looked at him in surprise: "Solo? ”
"No, Yang Jun said that he wanted me to make my debut as a group!"
"Oh, congratulations!"
The voice is flat, it seems that the debut of the group is a very trivial thing, so Kwon Zhilong, who has expressed 'desire' in front of the idol, is not very convinced, he himself wants to solo, but although Yang Hyun Suk loves him very much, he will not listen to his opinions in planning decisions, and he can only accept it, at this time, the teenager's self-esteem attacked, and he couldn't help but justify with a little anger: "The president said that he would choose a good team member for me, collect good songs, and the company's main task in the past 3 or 4 years is to push our group to the peak...... I think I'm going to have trophies in that cabinet in the future! ”
His words were categorical, and although there was some anger, the confidence in his tone was unquestionable.
If it is heard by others, these words are somewhat conceited, full of youthful and frivolous rebelliousness, if you change to a senior in the music industry, maybe you will have a bad feeling for him because of this, and feel that this child is too sharp and needs to be polished.
But An Yuxi didn't care about those, he knew how great Quan Zhilong's potential was in the future, listening to the young man's angry words, he couldn't help but smile, "Yang Jun said it himself?" ”
"Of course!"
"Huh!" He was a little stunned.
From the moment he accepted Yang Hyun-suk's invitation, he was suspicious, he didn't know why Yang Hyun-seok was so enthusiastic about himself, looking at the other party's performance when they met in school that day, the 'friendship' was shallow at that time, and it was not suitable to talk about too in-depth topics, I am afraid that Yang Hyun-seok couldn't wait to put his heart in his heart.
There is no love for reason in the world, even if he is a successful singer in the current hip-hop field, as a senior, Yang Hyun Suk does not need to be too respected.
Unless, he has a request for himself.
It's just that the information is asymmetrical, An Yuxi also analyzed Yang Xianshuo's mind for a while, until he listened to Quan Zhilong's words at this moment, and some messy clues in his mind were suddenly sorted out clearly-
The factors that I once ignored come to mind little by little.
For example, a few months ago, when he was besieged by the media because of Bai Zhiying, Xu Taizhi, who has never been in the country, suddenly spoke out to 'support'. For example, at the time of its opening, YG was the only brokerage company other than SM to congratulate the delivery of the 'flower' basket.
An Yuxi believes that everything in the world has cause and effect, and with Xu Taizhi's weight, he will not be allowed to publicly speak out in support of any singer he likes, or even oppose the media, unless there is an influential person in front of him to lobby.
As a veteran brokerage company, YG will not show goodwill to the competitors who opened the business, after all, the two parties have only met once at that time, and there is no 'private' friendship.
If you think about it in this direction, then everything makes sense.
Yang Xianshuo, most of them have a request for him, perhaps, he just fell in love with his song "Lies"!
