551 Chessboard (I)
As we all know, exposure in the entertainment industry is everything, if a star starred in all the variety shows of the three major TV stations within a week, then he will appear on TV for 37 hours in a news cycle, only these 37 hours of exposure allow fans to see him and pay attention to him, and virtual idols can allow users to follow their favorite stars at any time and anywhere, not to mention that this does not require fans to religiously stay in front of the TV. The fantasy of the private life of the stars provided by the virtual idols also makes the blanks outside the exposure of the stars be filled into a very attractive plot. ’
This is a description of virtual idols in the interview with Lin Weiran in the next day's Daily Economy, and this description needs to be connected with the conclusion after three paragraphs.
Shinhan Group started with virtual idols to become the center of Korea's new media system, but its founder did not let the group be confined to the virtual network, and its march into the physical field began with the acquisition of CeCi, as if voluntarily unraveling the mystery on its head, so that more investors can explore it, and the future of Shinhan will not only be built on a virtual network with a new exposure center, which its founder Lin Weiran has long anticipated. ’
Any material that can make a huge impact is a hint, because some truths are exposed and suspicious, and most people in the world will not be led by the brilliant rhetoric of reporters, but only a very small part of them can see the deep meaning.
Shinhan is the exposure center of the virtual network, which is more influential than the entertainment reports of major portals, and it has been involved in the field of variety show production since its establishment, and it is obvious that Lin Weiran sees the limitations of the network.
Today, all three major TV stations have partnerships with Shinhan except KBS. The two variety shows that are being carried out at SBS Shinhan occupy prime time throughout the weekend, and every agency in South Korea has the most influence except for the TV station. When this system takes shape, it will be a new center of exposure that crosses the barriers of the Internet and television.
When the time comes. Every company in the circle that needs a lot of exposure must abide by Shinhan's rules, including the old giant S.M, and the recent popularity of YG, not counting the fact that Shinhan's virtual idol concert in September will become a new brand for Korean idol performances, and its acquisition of Melon will have a fairly fair awards ceremony, and the final form of the virtual idol amusement park is actually to replace the grand pop culture center, and the star studio consortium it is secretly forming.
Lin Weiran's step-by-step game of chess was unveiled as mentioned in the report, and it only took two paragraphs to provide all those who have a heart with a just right perspective. Let them get a glimpse of the overall situation, most of these people will not wait to abide by Lin Weiran's rules, with this reminder, they have avoided being caught off guard in the future.
"Brother, no matter what others tell you, you just need to see the clear things written in the contract, I didn't hand over all the initiative to make people misunderstand, I handed over a project that is likely to be hugely profitable, and it wasn't for others to speculate about my possible conspiracy to control the earth. Just a week ago you said you could bring me AM and I'm so happy. Now it's okay for you to say that AM won't come, but after Gao Xianzhen officially launched her little studio, brother, you can't say that you also want to be independent! ”
The reason why hints can cause the most damage is because people speculate that everyone will think from their own point of view. Lin Weiran's image in the minds of artists is not so benevolent, and the position of president symbolizes the benefits he expects, speaking of AM. This manager company, which was just established in the first half of the year, is well known in South Korea, Jang Dong-kun, Hyun Bin, and Shin Min-a. Everyone's name is a household name, and these people who are above the Korean agent system are well-deserved superstars. And they have enough influence and money to achieve independence.
It's just that independence is not only a symbol of freedom, but also a symbol of resources are shrinking at a terrible rate, and in the small circle of top Korean artists, Yoo Jae-seok has extended an olive branch to them, and they are very interested in Lin Weiran's association.
There is almost no negotiation, everything that is clearly stipulated in the contract is attractive to them, the combined resources will not face shrinkage, and their freedom will be almost not lost.
A week ago, Liu Zaishi told Lin Weiran the news in an excited tone, and it was indeed a surprise to Lin Weiran, and just before the dust settled, the Daily Economy sent out that damn interview.
Yoo Jae-seok couldn't face Lim Weiran, and in fact his legal counsel had given him clear advice, which was the best contract South Korea had ever made, but that reason still didn't seem to put him to paper.
"Weiran, I think we need to meet." Liu Zaishi said.
"I think I'll have five minutes in a week, and I'm going to see Ko Hyun-jung now to make sure she's not going to quit filming." In the car, Lin Weiran stroked her brows irritably, "But I'm sure she won't join my consortium anymore, now all the artists in South Korea think that I am a slave owner who is ambitious and wants to control everyone in the entertainment industry, and no one believes me anymore." ”
"Weiran, I can't risk my career, if I sign a contract with Shinhan, most of my relationships in the circle will be severed, comedy artists are different from other artists, my career needs my relationship."
"Understood, but brother, Running-Man's contract has been put on the agenda, and you can't deny this."
"That'...... I'm sorry. ”
The phone hung up quickly, and the cold atmosphere was really difficult for the clever Liu Zaishi, at such a time, people will make the most beneficial decision, which has nothing to do with betrayal, but what is needed for survival.
As for Gao Xianzhen, Lin Weiran did not meet the actor who was lucky enough to marry into a wealthy family, but her agent told Lin Weiran that although joining the consortium would not be considered again, they already had an agreement to star.
It's a rare blessing that the shooting of big things will not be affected.
As soon as a situation was maintained, the other fronts faced problems, although the virtual idol had a three-year contract with Girls' Generation. But the other collaborators have brought problems, and they can't make it difficult for Shinhan with speculation about the future. However, it is not difficult to find fault with the contract, not to mention that the virtual concert in September has just entered the preparation period. Even if the price of Xinhan is very sufficient, whether to participate or not depends on the decision of these brokerage companies, just by exposing the intention, it destroys Lin Weiran's two dark moves, and the chain reaction has just begun.
As soon as the market opened today, Shinhan's stock price fluctuated unusually, and in the interview, Lin Weiran expressed strong interest in acquiring S.M, but this was enough to make investors lose confidence in him.
"Can anyone tell me that almost all of S.M's decisions can be influenced by S.M's decision-making without a stake in the slightest. Why do you want to buy us! ”
In the not spacious conference room, everyone looked at the walkie-talkie on the table, and the man's roar proved that he was not rational at this time, and no one would ask him to be rational when a company he had built with his own hands suddenly fell into such a strange situation.
"I don't know what to do."
Kim Young-min's flat voice sounded in the conference room: "We didn't know that Shinhan had such a big plan before we saw this report, but if Shinhan is really ready to buy us, we have time to prepare to resist now." ”
Shinhan's exposed plans are enough to make Lin Weiran notorious in the circle, even if Kim Young-min himself proposed an acquisition, he will choose to 'forget' about it.
One person spoke: "I don't think we need to worry about it now. Shinhan has taken care of himself, and every agency in the entertainment industry will rebel against them, and Lin Weiran is now unable to protect himself......"
"Have you dealt with Lin Weiran?" The voice on the phone rang again, followed by a bitter sarcasm: "If not." That's a good thing, just because you say that proves that you're going to be fooled by him like a fool! ”
The man was visibly deflated, but even though the person on the phone wasn't there. He also did not dare to have any angry expression, and the man on the phone had been called a 'tyrant' by countless media outlets. Although the whole company has seen him as a teacher, they still don't believe that he will be amiable.
There was silence in the room. Only Li Xiuman's angry breath came from the phone, Lin Weiran in his eyes was a better businessman than him, and he didn't believe that such a businessman would make a decision without reason.
He must have a big plan, otherwise he wouldn't have bought S.M for no reason, even if he had his woman here.
The relationship between Lin Yuner and Lin Weiran is only known to a few people in a very small range, and it is still a secret among the people who are qualified to be in this conference room.
"Senior, although we don't know what kind of moves Shinhan has made, I think we have a good chance."
At such a time, the only one who can speak up is Kim Young-min, and as the president of the company, he can face the anger of the major shareholders, and the cooperation over the years can also quell this anger.
"I'll talk to her."
"No, we talk to her only to anger the person we don't want to provoke, so we might as well wait for him to come to us."
For Lin Weiran, both Kim Young-min and Lee so-man felt tricky, this young man who had made a name for himself over the years made them not want to be an enemy of him, and it was a better decision to provoke him. At this time, Li Xiuman on the phone was in Japan, because of TVXQ's problems, all the channels laid by S.M in Japan are facing a huge crisis, this luggage Xiuman is not only to develop and stabilize the promotion channels, but also to launch an excellent combination belonging to S.M in Japan, so there is a girl's generation trip to Japan.
Shinhan's acquisition intention is undoubtedly a more important choice for S.M, and for Lin Weiran, the acquisition of a brokerage company that only needs time to fiddle with needs needs a good reason, the original explanation of insurance and cost reduction has become an outright lie in the face of the exposed layout, even if the acquisition is not established, he needs a better reason to explain his intentions, in order to retain the trust of shareholders.
Eight hours after taking the lead in solving the big problem and putting the project on the right track, Lin Weiran met with the other shareholders of Shinhan one by one, and only by gaining the trust of these people first will the damage not expand to the point of irreparability.
After a busy day, he had a moment to catch his breath before moving back to work, and the missed call on his phone made him connect to the fact that he was in Japan, nervous and nervous about facing a new challenge, but still remembering the girl who cared about her boyfriend.
"You want to buy us?" Lim Yuna's first question proves that she has developed a habit of paying attention to financial news.
"Yes, probably, not yet." Lin Weiran smiled helplessly.
"Don't use the words of the newspaper to perfunctory me, if yes you better tell me, and I'll be ready to work for you."
Lin Weiran loosened her tie and asked, "What do you think, are you willing to work for me?" ”
"I don't know, it's a strange feeling, if the head boss is my boyfriend, then wouldn't I become the heroine of the TV series? Maybe I'm better than them, because their male protagonist always has a dad named the president, and I have a boyfriend named the president. ”
Lin Weiran chuckled, he needed Lin Yun'er's whimsy at this time.
"Do you know the reaction of the sisters of the Dao? When Sister Xiuying heard the news, she immediately protected her chest with her hands, and others asked her what was wrong, and she said that the acquisition must be because of Girls' Generation. Everyone knew that Lu Dao was a joke, so Xiao Xian just glanced at Sister Xiuying, and then Sister Xiu Yan told her that South Korea does not have a complete system to deal with sexual harassment in the office, you must know that Lu Dao Girls' Generation is a girl group that can discuss this statement for a long time, not the ultimate fantasy of a man made by nine dew-drinking fairies gathered together. ”
Lin Weiran asked, "Why are you telling me this?" ”
The voice on the other end of the line immediately became much quieter: "I mean if you want to call someone to your office instead of for work, then you can only find me." ”
Lin Weiran's spirit was excited, and Lin Yun'er immediately said: "I miss you." ”
"Me too." Lin Weiran replied.
There was a snickering on the other end of the phone, the kind of laughter that Lin Yun'er would show every time she 'fouled', and Lin Weiran would give 'punishment' at this time, but unfortunately the woman on the phone was not by his side at this time.
Nothing will be done according to the plan, so improvisation is a must for every successful businessman, and Lin Weiran's crisis handling ability will be demonstrated again during this time, and the most important thing is whether he can fix his layout, or apply variables to achieve the same purpose.
It's a chaotic situation at the moment, and no one knows what will happen next, in fact, as long as Shinhan wants to move forward, it is indispensable to have a journey to cut through the thorns.
“…… Now tell you the true state of your sisters, most of them will consider whether there is a new contract for a salary increase, or if the company will handle this merger like this, only Sister Taeyeon's reaction is a little strange, saying that she just changed to a new boss, it's not a big deal, she turned out to be like this, did you also have some misunderstanding? It's like Xiaoxian is like you, by the way, Xiaoxian is cold-faced when he hears about you now, can you invite her over when we move in together, and explain the misunderstanding clearly, I also want to know what is going on in Lu Dao. ”
"Okay." Lin Weiran responded so. (To be continued......)
