Chapter 284: Glowing Gold
When he returned to the waiting room again, Lee Min-cheol thought that he had made a mistake for a moment, closed the door and confirmed that he recognized the name on it, opened it again in confusion, and finally faced the girl in front of him in a white wedding dress It was Lee Ji-eun, who he had watched grow up since childhood.
All kinds of emotions came to his heart in an instant, Li Minzhe didn't know what to say for a while, everyone could know from Li Minzhe's reddened eyes that Li Minzhe was in a complicated mood now, and the little girl who was most familiar with Li Minzhe wanted to cry with him.
"If I say that the wind is blind, isn't it a bit too far-fetched." said a joke that was not funny, Li Minzhe silently stepped forward, pinched her face and wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes: "I will be a big girl in the future, don't cry so easily." ”
After thinking about it, he added: "It's okay to cry in front of me, if it's another man who makes you cry, oppa will be jealous." Unable to control his emotions any longer, Lee Ji-eun threw himself into Lee Min-cheol's arms.
Many people around, especially Choi Minjing, who have known Lee Min-chul for a long time, are moved by the emotions of the two, and they all feel very happy to have an idol who retains such pure emotions in the dirty entertainment industry.
"Next, I will introduce you to the next group of singers, one is IU, a sweet girl who has just debuted." After Pani paused, Yu Li immediately received: "The other is Lee Min-cheol, a mature middle-aged uncle who has debuted for ten years, welcome two." ”
"Don't think that I won't dare to clean you up in your show, you must know that when I debuted, you were all in kindergarten." After saying a fierce word to the two, he put his arm around Li Ji-eun's shoulders and greeted the audience together.
Sure enough, as Pani said, there is really a lot of time to interview Lee Min-cheol and the two, although Lee Min-chul wants IU to say more, but whether it is from the effect of the show or the familiarity of the two Pani, it has slowly become a one-man show for Lee Min-chul.
"So unprofessional. Interview IU, forget it, I'll do it myself. After speaking, he snatched the Mike with Pani's name on it and pointed at IU: "May I ask if Lee Min-chul is as handsome in private as on TV?" ”
"Huh-" An unreliable question successfully received unanimous boos from the audience and the audience, Li Minzhe was not ashamed but proudly said: "This is the effect of the program, learn more in the future." ”
The interview ended, and soon it was the stage for the two, as the lights in front of them became brighter and brighter. Like Lee Ji-eun's appearance all the way, from pitch black to bright, she will bloom in front of everyone with the most beautiful posture today.
Holding Lee Min-cheol's hand, Lee Ji-eun felt that there was really no one happier than himself, the originally sweet singing voice with what he thought in his heart, the singing voice comparable to the studio effect came over instantly, and the noisy sound below disappeared instantly, and everyone was quietly appreciating the singing.
Kim Taeyeon wasn't jealous, but instinctively looked at Lee Min-chul. I saw that his forehead was covered with a layer of sweat, and his eyes staring at IU were also speechless, with years of understanding, Kim Taeyeon thought that Lee Min-chul should be thinking now: Why are you singing so well, what do you want me to do?
The facts are similar, and the audience can also hear it, when Lee Min-chul sings, it is a bit too much to say that it is a rat poop that spoils a pot of soup. But Bai Bi's slight flaws are still more appropriate, not that Li Minzhe sings badly. It's that Lee Ji-eun sings too exaggeratedly.
The sweet dialogue lyrics between lovers, the beautiful melody, and the shape of Lee Ji-eun covering all the shortcomings today, how could such an IU not be loved by everyone, and when she sang to the second half, Lee Min-cheol let go of the hand that had been holding her.
It's like the feeling of a father marrying off his daughter, stepping back step by step, looking at the back of Lee Ji-eun in a wedding dress, when someone took a screenshot. Finding that Lee Min-chul really almost shed tears, Lee Min-chul finally brought the treasures he had raised for many years to the public, and he couldn't help but feel empty in his heart while feeling relieved.
Lee Ji-eun, who was singing vigorously, naturally didn't realize it, but when he finished singing, he accepted the collective applause of the audience. When she turned back to search for that figure, as if countless times in the past, Lee Min-chul appeared when she needed help the most, and when it was harvest time, he retreated to the end.
"oppa, if you keep counting like this, how can I pay it off!" The girl thought to herself.
No matter how popular Lee Ji-eun is, after all, she is just a newcomer, and the song is only a digital single, so there is almost no hope for anyone, looking at the singer Lee Ji-eun who is thanking the company and the president on the stage, there is a wave of envy in his little heart.
Everyone would be very happy if they could say these words in front of everyone, as if they sensed the little girl's thoughts, and moved her head to their side: "You will talk more often in the future, and you have to thank you every time, I know?" Don't get bored. ”
"Not really." IU nodded affirmatively, not knowing if it was for Lee Min-chul or for herself.
In recent years, with the group storm brought by the earliest HOT, almost all Korean entertainment companies have turned their attention to the group, and the days when solo singers accounted for half of the country are no longer visible.
Compared with solo singers, the benefits of the group are too many, the most obvious is to spend the same resources or even less, I can bring out many people who are also famous, and they can go to separate activities after they become famous, one person's investment is equal to more than ten times the return, no one is a fool.
And there are many people in the group, whether it is in variety shows, itineraries, expanding popularity, etc., it is the best choice, even Lee Min-cheol has to admit this, and the recently freshly baked solo singers are also from the group, and Lee Min-chul himself is like this.
However, as the so-called mountains are impermanent, water is impermanent, it is not that solo singers can't be popular, but you have to have your own strength, the company also has that patience, of course, you need a little bit of luck, all the conditions are met by Li Ji-en, and the popularity of the new song is natural.
A nagging, a digital music source, with an unstoppable momentum, directly completed the amazing allkill, that is, the task of reaching the top at least at the same time on several of the most well-known music source websites in South Korea, at least during that time, it can be said that Little Girl's song is the hottest song in Korea.
However, IU, who has just debuted, still lacks some background, and compared to those in bigbang, it only stayed for a few hours, but this is already a great honor. Although there were no trophies, the whole company was celebrating, albeit a little smaller.
"Cheers, everyone, everyone has worked hard for the sake of gratitude recently, and when my publicity period passes, I will give everyone a holiday. It's time to think about where to travel in groups. Lee Min-cheol raised his glass proudly.
"Is it possible to go abroad?"
This time, there is no need for Li Minzhe to answer, Liu Zaishi directly made a decision: "Where do you want to go, if the company's profit this year is not enough, I will subsidize it privately." ”
Li Minzhe killed a glass of wine and nodded his head, it can be said that the company is their company, and it is still appropriate to add some benefits for these hard-working employees, but the two of them have made another small shareholder miserable.
The juice in Lee Ji Eun Min-cheol's mouth kept looking at everyone who was happy. And in his heart, he was thinking about his little treasury, but he couldn't shout out no matter how he calculated, even if he was inviting guests to dinner, but all the people in front of him were Han Niu.
Lee Ji-eun originally had no shares, but Lee Min-cheol thought that the girl had nothing to give when she debuted some time ago, so he took out some of his shares and gave them to her, of course, there were still excuses: "I'm afraid that I won't give her shares, and I don't care about the company." ”
The scene was very embarrassing. The girl who kept crying and the angry company employee, Lee Min-chul didn't expect a joke to have such a big effect. In the end, Liu Zaishi rushed over, and naturally saw Li Minzhe's careful thinking at a glance, and he didn't bother to say more to him, so he could only come forward to clean up the mess.
In the end, Liu Zaishi also inexplicably took out the shares, so now although Li Zhien has no cash, he holds 20% of the company's shares. Shares in a well-run company with no debt are very valuable, but the little girl won't sell them.
Sensing Li Zhien, who wanted to stop talking, Li Minzhe couldn't help but joke: "I forgot that we still have a little rich woman here, how can I say that I want to give some benefits to your employees?" ”
Lee Ji-eun can be said to be the younger sister of the owner of the whole company. Everyone had the intention of teasing the little girl, and they were full of expectation, which made the girl stressed.
Lee Ji-eun really wanted to thank these brothers and sisters who helped him a lot, but because of his weakness, Li Ji-eun, who finally came into contact with the society too early, even remembered to mortgage his shares, but Lee Min-cheol didn't plan to let the girl's wish come true.
"Okay, although Wuli Zhien is the sister of the gold mine, but even if it is a gold mine, you have to give people some time to mine, this time I will invest in advance, and OPPA's private money will be pressed on you." Lee Min-cheol took out a card and threw it to Choi Min-jeong, and then looked at Lee Ji-eun with a pitiful face.
Everyone is not an outsider, Cui Minjing directly inquired about the balance of the card, saw the 100 million cash in it, and made a gesture of admiration to Li Minzhe, so that everyone can get a few million, and it can be regarded as a big deal if it is not a year.
Li Zhien doesn't even have the heart to refuse, even if he has a lot of debts, he doesn't weigh down, anyway, he plans to pay it off slowly for the rest of his life, and he can pay it back as much as he can.
"For me and Brother Zai Shi to live a carefree life, for the company's employees to be able to pay wages without going to work, and for a better tomorrow." As the voices grew louder and louder, everyone's emotions were mobilized.
"I wish Zhi'en to become more and more popular, red through Korea, purple all over Asia, and black all over the world." The auxiliary words echoed everyone's intentions, and even the little girl herself couldn't stop laughing, and more than 20 cups collided together in the air.
There was wine, beer, soju and juice, and no one thought to take a picture of this ordinary scene, after all, no one knew how precious this moment was to this small company - the company with the highest input-output ratio in South Korea is the envy of all other companies.
When a certain year, the company is still such a little bit of a person, and there is still a lazy rhythm of working overtime and chatting with nothing, but it has created the most exemplary scene of Korean entertainment companies - National MC Yoo Jae-seok, National Favorability Lee Min-chul, and National Sister IU, no one knows how much money they made this year, because they are not listed companies, but it is said that that year, in a newly developed community in Seoul, Lee Min-chul bought an apartment and distributed it to everyone.
At the beginning of the day with Lee Ji-eun, Lee Min-chul and Choi Min-jeong discussed Lee Min-cheol's return plan, after all, it is a buy-one-get-one-free event, you can't let your family buy out the giveaways, and the main products will not be on the shelves.
So in addition to accompanying Lee Ji-eun on the show and starring in several variety shows in his hands, Lee Min-cheol devoted himself to the recording of the new album.
Because Lee Min-cheol's own company doesn't have any professionals, so the producer of the album is Lee Min-cheol himself, of course, it's best to hang a string of Lee Min-cheol's friends later, and the small company will have all kinds of big names to visit the class almost every day.
By the way, I will point out the shortcomings of the album, and it may be a little inappropriate to describe it as a good doctor after a long illness, but these old fritters who have debuted for many years do have a vision comparable to that of top professionals.
So when Kim Taeyeon came to the studio again and heard the new song recording, she couldn't find the slightest fault, looking at Lee Min-cheol, who had a beard and messy hair like a chicken nest in the room, Kim Taeyeon didn't know where her man ended.
"How? It's okay. Li Minzhe directly gave a positive answer, to be honest, he really didn't want to change it, and he was afraid that someone would come to visit the class again, and personally point out a lot of problems and re-record, which is a crime, especially when friends go out complacently.
"It's perfect, it's time for you to rest, how tired you are." stretched out and tried to smooth Lee Min-chul's hair, but he only harvested a touch of oil, and touched it on Lee Min-chul's face in disgust, and called it beauty.
"There's nothing to do, what time did we make an appointment, I haven't put on makeup yet." Lee Min-chul looked around for his watch.
"It's me who came early, don't worry, I don't have an itinerary today, I'm here to accompany you." Kim Taeyeon pushed Lee Min-chul out from behind, and even on the way to the beauty salon, Lee Min-chul immediately fell asleep.
Touching Lee Min-chul's cheeks with some distress, Kim Tae-yeon always felt that Lee Min-cheol was working too hard this year, and there was no rest at all, spanning variety shows, TV series, movies, and songs, even if others could have one of Lee Min-chul's achievements in a year, they would burn high incense, but Lee Min-chul did everything very well.
Of course, what is paid is amazing physical strength, although there are many accidents in this, but it is undeniable that most of the reasons are their girlhood and her Kim Taeyeon herself, silently staring at Lee Min-chul's side face, Kim Taeyeon thought a lot for a while. (To be continued.) )
