Chapter 10: How to Avoid the Sun

"Well, I can't say anything about this, anyway, brother, you are the president, I am the artist of the company, what should I do, what style and route to take, brother, you have the final say, I can listen to you." Rain smirked, looking like a scoundrel, and kicked the question back to Han Kwonwoo.

looked at the smiling rain, and then looked at the angry and helpless Han Quanyou, Han Jiazhi and Hong Daquan on the side couldn't help but smile and shake their heads. I'm afraid no one would have imagined that in the impression of outsiders, the representatives of the two cool men would have such a scoundrel side. Of course, more importantly, both Hong Daquan and Han Jiazhi were shocked by their deep friendship and unquestioning trust.

If it weren't for the deep friendship, Rain wouldn't have spoken to Han Quanyou with any attitude just now, you must know that in South Korea, a place with a strict hierarchy and a special emphasis on qualifications and seniority, doing so is definitely looking for death. Han Quanyou is also the president no matter what he says, and Rain is just an artist under the company, and if an artist dares to talk to the president of the company like this, it is definitely looking for death.

And that unconditional trust, I'm afraid that all the artists in South Korea will not be able to appear again. You must know that a singer releases a new album, what style and route, the singer will have his own ideas, and the company also has the company's plan, and it must be a way to maximize the benefits. In this case, it is natural that there will be some skirmishes between the artist and the company in this regard.

Although this kind of thing can generally be resolved through good negotiation between the two parties, (it is generally the artist who regresses, there is no way, the artist conflicts with the company, and it is definitely the artist who suffers.) But that doesn't mean there won't be clashes between the two sides over style and route.

Like Rain, who completely trusts Han Kwon-woo and doesn't ask for anything at all, he leaves everything to Han Kwon-woo to be in charge of. At least in Hong Daquan's more than ten years of agent career, he really hasn't encountered it.

"Ah, you kid is too irresponsible, who is preparing to release an album!" I didn't expect Rain to kick the problem to himself, although Han Kwon Woo knew that the new album he gave Rain, especially the title song, was ready, and it was definitely the most suitable for Rain. But looking at the rain that is very indifferent now, Han Quanyou is also a little unhappy in his heart.

"No way, I'm just an artist, what can I ask for, this kind of thing is all the company's responsibility, brother, you decide. Anyway, I'll wait for you to help me decide, brother, don't hurt me, you must know that my future is all in your hands now. ”

I have to say that Rain, who is ruthless to the end in front of outsiders, is definitely a completely different appearance in front of Han Quanyou. There's no way, the relationship between the two is too good, and they can't play seriously if they want to.

"Hey~ Forget it. Since you kid let me be responsible, of course the brother won't let you down. "The two are too familiar and have a good relationship. It's like Rain knows that Han Quanyou definitely can't do anything about himself, and he won't be angry. Han Quanyou also knew that since Rain said so, he would definitely not change this idea.

Therefore, Han Quanyou was not polite, and directly took over the task, and his face became serious.

With Han Quanyou's words, Rain's face gradually became serious. Don't look at Rain's indifferent face just now, but in fact, deep down, Rain still attaches great importance to this matter. After all, the success of this time will directly affect RAIN's future development in South Korea.

"First of all, in terms of the route, there is not much to say about this, the focus is still on the combination of dance and song, no problem."

"Yes!" Rain sat on the side and nodded honestly, of course there is no problem, as a dance singer, dance must be the focus of the focus, such an important thing as releasing a new album, of course, it is impossible to forget, and it cannot be abandoned.

"In terms of style, I've thought about it for a long time and I can definitely be a little bit more aggressive. Remember, it's violent, not violent. Ji Xun has a good figure, and in the choreography and MV shooting, he can also show a little muscle appropriately, and I believe that this will definitely attract more popularity. ”

Han Quanyou said unhurriedly, is it necessary to panic about this kind of thing, rain did this before the crossing, and it was done very well, and the effect was also very good. Therefore, Han Quanyou is very calm, and he is not worried at all about what to do if the impact of this is not enough, or if he does not attract much attention.

"Uh~ brother, can you be more detailed." After being stunned for a few seconds, Rain still didn't understand what Han Kwonwoo meant by what he said.

"I can't say this for a while, anyway, when the time comes for choreography and MV shooting, I will help you do it personally, check the whole process, you just need to do it according to the requirements." Some things can't be said clearly, you have to do it yourself to experience.

"Okay then, but this time the title song of the album, can you let me take a look at it first." Since Han Quanyou said so, of course Rain will not ask again. Thinking that Han Quanyou had said that the title song of his new album this time Han Quanyou was ready, Rain was also a little itchy and wanted to see it.

"Hehe, I knew that your kid would say that, and he was ready for a long time, give." Han Kwonwoo smiled and took out the song that had been prepared long ago from the drawer and handed it to Rain.

"'Ways to Hide from the Sun'?" I took the song and looked at it, and the first thing I saw was the name of the song. However, this name has something to do with both Han Quanyou and Rain. After all, the stage names of the two, one is fire, and the other is rain. Seeing such a song title, Rain asked with some confusion.

"Well, that's right, it's the song. Don't worry, this song was carefully created by me for you, you must know that in this world, I am afraid that I am the person who knows you best, you can rest assured, this song is also the most suitable for you. Don't keep looking at the title of the song, that's not the point, the main thing is to look at the quality of the song itself. ”

"How to Avoid the Sun", if Rain really uses this song as the title song, the media will definitely gossip, after all, the title of this song is really reminiscent of Pianpiao.

Avoiding the sun, isn't that just dodging the fire, dodging Han Quanyou. How to dodge in the end, and the meaning of rain is just rain, water and fire are incompatible, is this rain looking down on Han Quanyou, or is it a provocation to Han Quanyou.

Han Quanyou has thought of these things for a long time, and has been the president of the company for a while, and now Han Quanyou is not a novice who just debuted before, he doesn't understand anything, and he doesn't care about it.

Just by looking at Rain's face, you know what Rain is thinking and worrying about. Han Quanyou smiled and patted Rain's shoulder, signaling that it didn't matter.

"Yes!" Rain nodded, didn't say anything, and began to look down at the title song of the new album that Han Kwonwoo had prepared for himself.

"Brother Daquan, this time has really worked hard for you." Without disturbing Rain, Han Quanyou came to Hong Daquan's side and sat down.

"Hehe, in fact, there is nothing hard or not hard." As before, Hong Daquan said with a very cheerful smile.

"By the way, Brother Daquan, Rain is in such a hurry to come back from leaving Yueben, will there be any problems in Yueben, and will AM hold a grudge against us for this matter?" Thinking that Rain would rush back to South Korea in such a hurry, Han Kwonwoo was somewhat worried about the attitude of Yuben's side.

The so-called AM is the company that Rain went to temporarily cooperate with, and it is also an AVEXMANAGEMENT company, representing the artist Ayumi Hamasaki.

"It's okay, when I first passed, I told the other side that Rain might leave at any time, and Am definitely can't stop Rain's review, this matter is clearly written on the contract signed at the beginning, and Am can't take any opinions we can't do. Of course, in order to be able to make Uncle Am ask us for this, we also gave up a lot of interests. But I believe you won't care about this, after all, Zhixun went to the book, and never thought about long-term development, just a simple transition, waiting for the situation of SS to ease up. ”

Knowing what Han Quanyou was worried about, Hong Daquan also talked in detail about the matter with AM, indicating that Han Quanyou did not need to worry about this matter at all.

"That's good." How to say that AM has a pivotal position in the entertainment industry of Yuben, if he can, Han Quanyou can't fall out with AM.

You must know that for the K-pop music market, the two most important markets outside the sea are Yubon and Thailand. If you have a bad relationship with AM, then it will be very unfavorable for the development of SS Company's artists in Yuben in the future.

"Brother, it's really amazing, is this song really my title song?" At this moment, Rain on the side had already shouted excitedly, looking at Han Quanyou expectantly, waiting for an answer.

Anyway, he is also a singer, although his debut has not been long, but looking at the quality and quality of a song, Rain still has this vision. After just watching "How to Avoid the Sun" once, Rain can be sure that if this song is really released, it will definitely have a big sensation.

Thinking that this song is the title song of his return, Rain has no reason not to be excited.

"Look at what you look like now, be calm, remember to be calm. The songs are all taken out and given to you, not yours or anyone. Looking at the excited rain, Han Quanyou shook his head and said.

"It's great, it's such a classic, and I can't wait to record a new album sooner." Ignoring Han Quanyou, Rain just said excitedly.

It is normal for people to see good things and want to take them for themselves, and it is best to take them for themselves as soon as possible, so that they can rest assured.

"Zhixun, this kind of thing is not in a hurry, and it is not in a hurry. Don't worry, I swear that this song will never be given to anyone other than you, Jung Ji Hoon. Don't worry about it. You're just coming back today, so take a good rest, and if you really can't afford to wait, then tomorrow, tomorrow will start recording a new album. But at least today, you don't have any work, the only thing you need to do is rest. ”

Han Quanyou persuaded rain in a deep tone, you kid doesn't care, you can start work immediately, but the company is not ready yet, and it can't be started.

"Well, then we'll start recording a new album tomorrow." Facing Han Quanyou, who looked serious, Rain also knew that it was impossible for him to start work today. However, thinking of Han Quanyou's words just now, saying that work can start tomorrow, Rain asked again with confirmation.

"Don't worry, I'll help you start tomorrow." Knowing what Rain was worried about, Han Quanyou also said with a serious face.

Rain, who was reassured, finally put his mind at ease, but he still looked at the song in his hand with an excited face, humming from time to time.

"Forget Jixun, don't worry about the song first, you sign this contract first." Han Kwonwoo said as he took out a contract that had been prepared a long time ago and handed it to Rain.

"What is this?" Taking the contract, Rain asked with a puzzled expression.

"See for yourself!" Han Kwon Woo didn't directly tell Rain what the contract was, but just motioned for Rain to see it for himself.

You must know that this contract is a contract for Rain to become a shareholder of SS Company, and at the same time, there are also things such as the proportion of income that Rain gets as an artist of the company and the company. It's hard to say this kind of thing, because he is the largest shareholder and boss of the company, so he can only let Rain see it himself, and he has to look at it carefully.

"Brother, there's nothing wrong with the rest, but isn't this income distribution too high?" For more than ten minutes, Rain, who had carefully read the contract, raised his head and said.

"Well~ what's wrong, it's too high, no, I'm also 5:5 with the company, there's no problem." looked at Han Quanyou, Han Quanyou couldn't understand what Rain's brain was thinking, there are still people who make more money this year!

"Well, I think it's too high, I think 8:2 is fine." Rain nodded, speaking her mind.

"8:2, that's too little, or 6:4." Anyway, RAIN is also his good brother and a shareholder of the company. This 8:2 is too little, the dignified company owner, and the company's profit distribution is the same as his own in JYP, how can this be.

"Forget it, let's stop fighting, let's just 7:3!" Rejecting Han Quanyou's proposal, Rain said with a serious face.

"Okay, okay, if I'm afraid of you, just do what you want, and I'll ask someone to reprint a contract later." I looked at Rain's expression again and again, and found that Rain was very serious, if I didn't follow Rain's intentions, I'm afraid Rain would really turn his face, and even leave SS.

Don't ask Han Quanyou why he knows, in fact, Han Quanyou himself can't say why. Maybe it's because the two are too familiar and know each other very well. Just like having a sixth sense, although Han Quanyou doesn't know what is going on, he is still sure that if he does not accept Rain's 7:3 request, I am afraid that Rain will really turn his face and leave SS.

"Hehe, that's great." Seeing that Han Quanyou finally nodded in agreement, Rain's serious expression showed a smile again.

Of course, Rain knows very well that this 5:5 distribution is completely Han Quanyou taking care of himself and wanting to make more money. It was false for Rain to say that he was not moved, but after thinking about it again, Rain decided to reject Han Kwonwoo's proposal.

In Rain's thoughts, he can't have a contract that is the same as Han Quanyou, and he must have less than Han Quanyou, so as to highlight Han Quanyou's status in the company.

For SS Company to be established, Han Quanyou definitely paid much more than Rain, which Rain also knows very well. Thinking of this, Rain felt that he was not qualified to sign a 5:5 contract with SS.

What's more important is that RAIN knows that he can't compare to Han Kwonwoo, who can continue to write many classic songs, which is absolutely important for a brokerage company, and a pure singer agency.

You can also choreograph, you can also shoot music videos, TV dramas and movies, and so on. Compared with Han Kwonwoo, at most, he can contribute to choreography, and other places are not able to contribute at all. It is for these reasons that Rain absolutely Han Quanyou's 5:5 is taken for granted, and he is obviously not qualified.

Since Rain was called late last night to inform Rain that he could come back, Rain was also busy packing his things and getting ready, plus taking the plane. After more than an hour of talking and communicating, Rain also felt a little sleepy.

Looking at Rain with a tired face, Han Quanyou ordered Rain to go back and rest first, while he was ready to continue to stay in the company and prepare for some things.

After repeated persuasion, Rin finally left the company with Hong Daquan and went back to rest. After sending Rain and Hong Daquan away, Han Quanyou immediately called Li Mingze to his office.

"Rain is back, and I'm going to start recording a new album from tomorrow, and your publicity department should prepare for this matter, and you must pay attention to this matter, even more than my new album. As for the promotional materials, I'll give it to you in a few days. ”

Looking at Li Mingze, who was expressionless, Han Quanyou looked at the other songs that had been prepared for Rain on the computer, and said in a calm tone.

"Don't worry, President, I will definitely take care of this matter. When I get back, I'll start arranging to make Rain's new album the most important battle for the company. Li Mingze assured with a serious face, and at the same time signaled Han Quanyou to rest assured, he would definitely not care and do his best because Rain was not the president of Han Quanyou.

Li Mingze knows very well that the success of RAIN this time will have an absolute impact on the entire SS company. If Rain's new album can be successful, then it means that SS has the ability to make stars, which is definitely a fatal temptation for many young people who have the potential to become stars.

If Rain's album hadn't been successful this time, the consequences would have been much more serious. The outside world doesn't care what happened to your SS, they only know that RAIN has failed, which means that SS doesn't have the ability to make stars. At that time, with the publicity and coverage of the media, this will definitely be an extremely fatal blow to the newly established SS company.

Whether a brokerage company can successfully gain a foothold in the entertainment industry depends not only on the strength and ability of its company. What is more important is the company's heritage, and its star-making ability is the most direct manifestation.

Look at MS and JYP, that company didn't rely on one star after another and super groups to successfully gain a foothold in the entertainment industry. If RAIN doesn't succeed, then the future of SS will be difficult.

You must know that for a brokerage company, the most important thing for the outside world is its ability to make stars, and the level of star-making ability directly affects everyone's evaluation of the company's strength.

Originally, the SS company had just been established, and the most important thing for a company was the heritage, but at present, the SS has no background at all, and there are not even a few trainees.

It's not that Han Quanyou doesn't want to recruit trainees, but considering that the company has not proved to the outside world that the company has the ability to make stars, even if it holds a trainee recruitment, I'm afraid it won't have any influence and attraction.

Therefore, Han Quanyou has been waiting, and after RAIN has succeeded in starting from SS, he will have certain results and qualifications before he will hold the recruitment of trainees.

Both Han Quanyou himself and Lee Myung-taek on the side know very well how important Rain's success this time is to the entire SS company.

As for Han Kwonwoo's success, this point is basically ignored by everyone. You must know that as early as the time of JYP, Han Quanyou's all-round ability and potential gradually showed were already familiar to the public.

And the scenery and success of Han Quanyou's "Flame" are taken for granted in the eyes of outsiders. Even if he leaves SS Company and goes to any company, Han Kwonwoo will be able to succeed.

Therefore, for SS Company's star-making ability, the success of Han Kwon-woo's "Flame" is not convincing. Only when SS Company launches another singer and achieves success can it prove SS Company's star-making ability and be recognized by the outside world. Undoubtedly, RAIN is the right person to do so.
