Chapter 104 Want to cooperate? The cost is significant

Gold Records has been adjusted since previous years. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

The time of the event has been directly postponed a lot, and it is usually held in the year of the year, and from 13 years onwards, the previous year's artists will be awarded at the beginning of the following year.

In fact, Zheng Xiuxun even thinks that the people in the gold record program group deliberately made it like this, which makes the gold record unique, and at the same time can attract enough eyeballs.

Almost all of the awards ceremonies that have a bit of weight in the music industry are held during the year, such as mama and the like.

It is a bit early to say who will win the Golden Record's record awards, and the official voting channel has not yet been opened, and the main battlefield among fans is still on the total sales of the album.

After all, the total sales of the album account for a very large proportion of the final rating, and there are several important award ceremonies.

MAMA was held at the end of November, and BTOB received several nominations including Album of the Year, Best Boy Group, Best Dance Music Performance – Boy Group, and the same Exo received the same nominations.

The gap lies in the fact that Zheng Xiuxun is also nominated personally, and he is nominated for personal awards such as Best Male Singer and Singer of the Year.

EXO's team results are very good, but in terms of solo, I really can't find anyone who can face Zheng Xiuxun directly.

If there is still suspense in the showdown between EXO and BTOB, which can attract the attention of others, there is no suspense in OLO, and Jung so-hoon can claim very domineeringly that he can complete the all-kill of any member of EXO in the SOLO field.

The total number of fans of EXO is still watery, and it is true that there are more than Melody, but there are a lot of meals, and they are still very disunited with each other...... It's not uncommon for families to tear each other apart.

Melody's side is different, first of all, many melody evolved from Jung so-hoon's only rice, and secondly, BTOB's intra-team relationship has been proven by the members with facts again and again, the team is an iron plate, there is no disagreement, and so are the fans.

As soon as the contract renewal incident came out, even the media that liked to fabricate some news gave up fabricating news similar to the discord within the BTOB team, because no one believed it at all, and it would be complained about.

Although melody still has the existence of only rice, but it is not like the planetary rice will pinch each other by itself, that is, there is a melody here to attract firepower, if there is no melody, it is estimated that the planetary rice itself is more fierce to pinch internally.

Here, Zheng Xiuxun just told Tiffany, Jessica and others about cooperation, and Hong Shengcheng over there has already called to urge.

EXO has been chasing very album sales, and there have been many team activities recently, and a group drama has been specially filmed.

The other members of BTOB's side have also returned in various forms one after another according to the original plan, except for Jung so-hoon, who returned in Troublemaker, and then he can only be seen in "The Inheritors".

How can a male third get praise, where can the role go? Sometimes a whole episode is just a minute less than a minute to show your face, which is almost equal to nothing.

What's more, this is a grand prize in the music industry, if you want to fight for it, you still have to start from the music industry.

"Xiuxun, are you kid deliberately lazy again?" Hong Shengcheng directly arrested Zheng Xiuxun to the office.

"How come" Zheng Xiuxun hurriedly retorted, "Teacher, your prejudice against me is a bit big, how can you describe me as deliberately lazy?" Am I a model worker, okay? ”

"Oh?" Hong Shengcheng looked at him with a smile: "Are you sure?" ”

"Uh......" Zheng Xiuxun paused for a moment, and smiled wryly, "The model worker may be a little exaggerated."

"I guess you've already found a partner to work with, right?" Hong Shengcheng said pointedly.

"Teacher, don't you already know?" Zheng Xiuxun said.

He was in contact with YG privately, not only Hong Shengcheng, but even the people on the board of directors knew about it, but Zheng Xiuxun didn't pay attention to them, he purely contacted other companies from the perspective of the studio.

It's not in the name of BTOB, and the company can't control it.

These are all clearly written in the contract, all in all, Zheng Xiuxun now enjoys absolute freedom, as long as it does not involve the interests of the BTOB team, this is the last bottom line of the cube, Zheng Xiuxun does not need to be tempted, he has already got everything he wants.

"It's not bad for you to expand your network" Hong Shengcheng didn't seem to have any ideas, "You can't always let me help you build roads and bridges, after all, I can't always help you"

"Teacher, what are you?" Zheng Xiuxun was a little unpredictable about the meaning of Hong Shengcheng.

"Didn't I tell you a long time ago?" Hong Shengcheng smiled, "While I'm still moving, help you reduce a little more resistance, and when I can't do it, the burden on your shoulders will be heavy."

"Teacher, aren't you in the prime of life?" Jung so-hoon smiled: "I guess you will have to sit in this position for a long time"

"Maybe" Hong Shengcheng's gaze was a little evasive, and he quickly brought the topic over, "Tell me who you want to cooperate with next?" ”

Jung so-hoon didn't think about anything else, and honestly replied, "I want to try it out with S&M people this time."

"Are you sure you're sure?" Hong Shengcheng kindly reminded that "S&M is very complicated within the company, whether it is Lee so-man or Kim Young-min, none of them are fuel-efficient lamps, and they are essentially different from the YG and JYP you have come into contact with."

As the largest economic company in Korea, S&M is indeed large, but it also has large internal problems.

No matter where there are, as long as there are more people, there will be more disputes, let alone this kind of place full of interests.

The reason why S&M is complex is that it can be seen from the complexity of its share distribution, unlike CUBE and YG, there are too many stock holders of S&M, and all kinds of forces are intervening in it.

The confrontation between different interest groups is also very fierce, don't look at Li Xiuman has stepped down as executive director, is he really willing to retire? In fact, Li Xiuman has been looking for another opportunity to give.

Jin Yingmin is not idle, he has always wanted to completely consolidate his current position, and he did his best to clean the traces of Li Xiuman's official affairs.

As the first boy group carefully built by Kim Young-min on stage, why was it so easy to start preparing for the position in the second year?

The shinee in the middle is ignored like this.,SJ is obviously still popular, but it's already started to slowly make way for EXO? It was Kim Youngmin's acquiescence.

In terms of the girl group, Girls' Generation is now in full swing, Kim Yingmin doesn't dare to move, and the other FX is more miserable, it was originally an experimental group, and it was deliberately suppressed by Kim Yingmin, it is foreseeable that there will be no future, and the next new girl group is estimated to be on top.

"Hehe, how do you know if you don't try?" Zheng Xiuxun is quite confident, "I may not be able to take advantage of it, but it is impossible to suffer losses, and contact is necessary"

"Hmm" Hong Shengcheng nodded, "This is your own business, take care of it yourself, if you encounter something, come to me, I have been in contact with some of S&M"

"I will," Jung so-hoon smiled.

Just as I was about to speak, the phone rang, it was a strange call.

"Hey, is it Jung so-hoon? I'm Kim Young-min from S&M, so let's come out and talk about it when you have time."

"Okay, you make an appointment, I'll come to you," Jung so-hoon replied.

Immediately, the two agreed on a place, and after hanging up the phone, Jung so-hoon said, "It's President Kim Young-min's call, so I'll go out and meet him first."

"Go ahead," Hong Shengcheng waved his hand.

In fact, a few days ago, Girls' Generation's agent Han Shenghao contacted Zheng Xiuxun, and at that time, Zheng Xiuxun directly explained to Han Shenghao that he wanted to talk to Kim Youngmin.

Look at the time, it's really about the same.

The place where the two of them meet is a café, and it seems that they like to talk more about this place.

"I'm sorry, President Kim Young-min, I'm late," Jung so-hoon bowed respectfully when he came to Kim Young-min.

"You don't have to be so polite, please take a seat," Kim Young-min waved his hand.

There is no shelf at all, Kim Young-min still understands this very well, and Zheng Xiuxun did not contact him as an artist, but met as a representative of the same company, maybe Zheng Xiuxun's studio is a little smaller.

But does Kim Young-min dare to look down on him like this? How could it be.

"This should be the first time we've met, right?" Kim Young-min said with a smile.

"Almost" Jung so-hoon smiled, "Although I have been to S&M, I have never met you, but up close, you are a little kinder than rumored"

To be honest, Kim Young-min's face is not the type of fierce and evil, he is quite good-natured and looks very gentle.

"I wonder what you're trying to do with me?" Kim Young-min asked curiously, "I have to explain your intentions?"

"Okay, I'm not going to beat around the bush" Zheng Xiuxun smiled, "I came with sincerity and wanted to cooperate with your company"

"Do you want to invite members of Girls' Generation to participate in the recording of your new song? If this is the case, Han Shenghao can decide, and he doesn't need me to come," Kim Young-min shook his head and said.

"Of course not," Jung explained, "I mean a deeper level of cooperation."

"Oh?" Kim Youngmin's interest suddenly came up, and he asked rhetorically, "How do you want to cooperate?" ”

"I just want to cooperate in the music field," Jung so-hoon chuckled, "The network that S&M has built over the years is something that I envy."

"Hehe" Kim Young-min smiled mysteriously, "It is true that many people are greedy, and many people want to establish a cooperative relationship, but the question is, what can we get?" Besides, Zheng Xiuxunxi, aren't you having a lot of trouble with the artists under our company, strictly speaking, we are opponents? ”

"Your vision shouldn't be so superficial, right?" Zheng Xiuxun said: "Isn't there only a profit at the company level? It's just a matter of being able to bring benefits to each other."

"I like this sentence" Kim Yingmin smiled and pushed his glasses, "I have always believed in the word profit, so let's talk about it, your conditions"

"I can't give much" Zheng Xiuxun didn't deliberately show off Guan Zi or anything like that, he did have very few cards in his hand, and Kim Yingmin probably knew that if he pretended to be a ghost with him, he would only bring humiliation on himself.

"Cross-ownership, and then I don't mind working on an album for any of your company's groups other than EXO and SHINEE, that's probably the price I can pay," Mr. Jung said.

"It seems that Jung so-hoon is a smart person," Kim Young-min seemed to appreciate, "I like to deal with smart people, so tell me what I can get personally?" ”

"An ally," Jung so-hoon said, holding up his index finger, "the shares I own will be debited to your name, so that your position on the board of directors will be more secure?" ”

"It seems that Zheng Xiuxun did a lot of homework before he came?" Kim Youngmin's eyes narrowed.

His expression didn't change at all, and his eyes were well hidden, and Zheng Xiuxun couldn't guess what he was thinking about at the moment.

But the only thing that is certain is that Kim Young-min is weighing.

Zheng Xiuxun didn't open his mouth to continue to say something nice, he only had these cards, and if Kim Young-min didn't go before, he could only change his partner.

After a long time, Jin Yingmin shook his head and said, "It's not enough, it's not enough, I need you to pay a little bit more."

"Then you have to talk about it, you have to see if I can give you what you want," Jung so-hoon said.

"Hehe" Kim Young-min smiled mysteriously, "Actually, it's not a price, I just want Zheng Xiuxun Xi to cooperate with you and do a few things, it shouldn't have any impact on yourself."

"Oh? Can you tell us about it? Zheng Xiuxun was curious.

"Well, it's not worth telling you in advance, all you have to consider is whether you're willing to take this unknown risk and cooperate with us, of course, you'll get what you want."

Now Zheng Xiuxun is in a dilemma.

"Don't be too anxious," Kim Young-min said with a smile, "Even if the talks are done now, there is no time, won't it be mama in a few days?" You're going to go to Hong Kong then, right? Why don't you think about it in the next few days, and then give me an answer when you come back from Hong Kong, and I need to report these things you said to the board of directors."

"Okay then" Jung so-hoon nodded, "I'll think about it seriously"

With that, Zheng Xiuxun got up and left, he really needed to be alone and calm down and think about it.

Seeing Jung so-hoon leave, the corners of Kim Young-min's mouth rose slightly, revealing a mysterious smile, and he said to himself, "This is a good opportunity, cooperate with me, the price is very high, Jung so-hoon" (to be continued.) )
