Chapter 369: Park Jin-young
In the evening, Kim Do-jun came to the hotel set by Xianyi as promised, and as soon as he arrived at the door, he felt that the mobile phone in his pocket suddenly vibrate.
took out his mobile phone and looked at it, it turned out to be Xianyi's phone number.
I guess I can't wait, so I called and asked to see where Kim Do-joon was.
Hung up the phone directly and strode in, wearing a hat, not afraid of being recognized, according to the agreed private room, politely knocked on the door, and then opened the door and walked in.
As soon as I entered, I found Park Jin-young's iconic face, with her hair dyed blonde, sitting there, like an orangutan, looking at herself and smiling slightly.
Xianyi looked surprised next to him, still holding a mobile phone in his hand.
Kim Do-joon took off his shoes, bowed respectfully and nodded.
In any case, he is the president of the three major entertainment companies in South Korea, and he is also his senior, so it is necessary to respect him, otherwise he really doesn't know how to be polite.
Han Chenghao sat outside alone, found a random place, and ate and drank by himself.
"Is it Do-joon? May I call you that? ”
Park Jin-young was the first to speak, stood up from the mat, and reached out to shake hands with Kim Do-joon.
"Yay! Yes, it's my pleasure! ”
Kim Do-jun bowed and clasped his hands.
"Come on, come on, you're welcome, sit down quickly, today Xianyi took the initiative to invite, thank you for coming!"
After Park Jin-young finished speaking with a smile, he led Kim Do-joon to sit down.
For the first time, it didn't feel so restrictive, and this senior seemed quite easy-going.
With YG's President Yang Hyun Suk. I always feel that his mind is very deep, he thinks a lot of things, and he is more complicated. It's a bit unpredictable.
And with JYP's President Park Jin-young, although it hasn't been for a long time and I've just met for the first time, the first impression is not very bad, and I smile and feel cute.
No matter how you dress. As if he was a natural artist, standing on the stage to bring everyone good music, with his own unique taste.
I heard that he also kept a record. is the only artist in all the brokerage companies in South Korea whose president also participates in the singing show.
is the president of JYP, and at the same time a singer and artist.
Kim Do-joon admired this very much, and put down his identity as president in South Korea to participate in the broadcast with the little artist. This is not something that ordinary people can do.
Kim Do-joon scratched his hair embarrassedly. Take off your hat, fix your hairstyle, and speak.
"This is as it should be, you are a senior in the music industry, and you should take the initiative to visit!"
Kim Do-joon is also becoming more and more mature now, talking about people when he sees people, and talking about ghosts, from his debut to the present. It not only brought him a change in vision, but also a more mature interpersonal relationship.
Xianyi had a faint smile on his face. He winked at Kim Do-joon, as if to say more.
"Thank you oppa for coming, thank you so much!"
Kim Do-joon didn't say anything, and secretly made an "ok" gesture.
"How long has it been since Do-joon's debut, and he just came back from the United States last year, right? Join Leessang as soon as you come back? ”
Park Jin-young asked while taking the initiative to turn the pork belly on the baking tray with a tong.
The basic public information can be found on the Internet, but whether it is true or not, then you have to ask the artist.
Just like all idol artists, age, height, and plastic surgery are always questions that are questioned by netizens.
Kim Do-jun adjusted his position, he was not sitting comfortably just now, nodded and responded.
"Yes! After returning from the United States last year, he joined the Leessang group directly, and has been until now. ”
The answers were very easy, they were all routine questions, and Kim Do-jun didn't think much about it, but the following question made the hairs on Kim Do-jun's back stand up.
"Then why didn't you join S.M? Their packaging and planning skills are extraordinary! ”
Although Park Jin-young spoke casually, from the corner of his eye, he stared at Kim Do-joon from time to time.
Sure enough, no one who can become the president of a brokerage company is simple, and the degree of delicacy, mastery of news, and understanding of artists are all Kim Do-joon's shudders.
"How did he know?"
It stands to reason that few people know about going to S.M for an interview by themselves, but President Park Jin-young casually said that if he didn't know the situation so thoroughly, how could he know these things.
It's still an understatement.
Kim Do-jun said lightly.
"Others don't want me, what can I do, I can only find another way out!"
Kim Do-jun pursed his lips with a look of disdain.
Excellent planning and packaging skills, these things are no different from garbage in Kim Do-joon's eyes.
has never treated artists as people, but has just been reduced to a tool to make money, even if such a company is big, good and excellent, it is not within the scope of Kim Do-jun's consideration.
"So that's the case, that's a pity, it's the most suitable person like Daojun to come to our JYP, Xianyi, do you say yes?"
The things on the wine table are true or false, no one can take it seriously, and even if they say it, others will think it is drunk.
Although there are people who say the truth after drinking, who knows whether it is true or not, or who cares.
Kim Do-joon said with a faint smile on his face.
"Thank you, President Park Jin-young, I'm getting along well with Leessang's brothers now, and I don't want to leave the company yet, I'm sorry!"
This kind of behavior, to be honest, happens everywhere, and there is nothing strange about it.
Besides, Park Jin-young is just a test time, smart people will naturally understand, and stupid people will naturally understand when they think about it.
Kim Do-joon said it directly, on the one hand, he didn't want to give JYP any chance, and he wanted him to die.
On the other hand, Brother Tiger is kind to himself, if it weren't for his support and trust. Maybe he is still slowly wandering on the road to his debut, which must be thanked to him.
"Could it be that Daojun is so righteous, let's have a drink!"
After speaking, he picked up his wine glass. And Kim Do-jun drank a glass of soju.
Because Xianyi was not an adult, he could only take a sip of his drink, carefully watching the conversation between the two people, and did not insert it.
As soon as he finished drinking, Park Jin-young picked up the soju bottle and wanted to help Kim Do-joon Do-joon.
After Kim Do-jun saw it, he held his wine glass and hurriedly said.
"You are a senior. How can this be done, it should be me! ”
After speaking, he wanted to snatch the soju bottle from Park Jin-young's hand and pour it for him personally.
Park Zhenying nodded with satisfaction. handed him the soju bottle, there is no need for the two of them to be too humble, this is what the juniors should do.
"What a polite child!"
Park Jin-young said secretly in his heart.
"That's right, Dojoon. Don't call me president. If you don't mind, just call me Brother Zhenying! ”
Kim Do-joon, who was originally holding chopsticks, suddenly stopped and thought for a moment.
"Is that appropriate?"
Looking at Park Jinying's high cheekbones, he looked very weird, he wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh, and finally nodded and said.
"Okay, Brother Zhenying!"
November 1997. With the help of a friend, Park Jin-young registered a small brokerage company called Taehong for 50 million won. This was the predecessor of today's JYP.
At that time, the only singer under its banner was Park Jin-young himself.
Founder Park Jin-young is known as the godfather of Korean music, as well as a singer, songwriter and producer, and the company is divided into three divisions: the record planning department, the overseas business department and the industrial relations department.
The current JYP has developed into one of the three giants in South Korea, and Park Jin-young has contributed a lot.
If I have to say that his most successful thing is the launch of the boy group GOD and solo artist Rain, which made JYP one of the top in South Korea in one fell swoop.
Park Jin-young gave the barbecue to Kim Do-joon, and at the same time, he didn't forget Xian-ye, and said with a smile at her.
"Eat more, it's been a hard time, and I'm going to prepare a new album soon, don't relax!"
Xianyi is Park Jinying's most reassuring artist, and her long-term practice career makes her extremely stable.
doesn't talk much, even if it's on a variety show, it will step back and leave more opportunities for other members.
While taking care of her younger sisters, she also has to bear the pressure of the combination, which always makes Park Jin-young feel very distressed.
"Hmmm! I know, I've been trying to eat it all the time! ”
Xianyi's mouth kept chewing, and when he saw that everyone was staring at him, he immediately covered his mouth and laughed embarrassedly.
"Eat more, so that you have the strength to make an announcement!"
Kim Dojun also sandwiched the barbecue and put it in Xianyi's bowl and said slightly.
"It's really like my own sister!"
Speaking of my sister, I really miss Huiyuan a little, I don't know how it is at school, and I don't call myself, say hello, and have to teach a good lesson when I go back.
Both of them smiled and began to drink.
After a while, Park Jin-young spoke.
"Do-joon, I heard that you've written a lot of songs lately, is that true?"
It's coming, it's coming, it's finally coming.
Kim Do-joon had been silently thinking about the question in his heart for a long time, and finally asked it.
I was still wondering just now, why I haven't asked myself this question until now, it's only been a few seconds, and unfortunately he was right.
Kim Do-jun put down his chopsticks, wiped them, and spoke.
"It's okay, I just wrote two or three songs, not a lot, compared to Brother Zhenying, it's still far behind!"
Kim Do-joon knows that Park Jin-young's songs and income have always been in the top three in the artist income list of the Korean Copyright Commission, and he has never fallen out for so many years.
Park Jin-young's net income from the copyright of original songs in 2007 was as high as 900 million won, becoming the well-deserved father of original music.
"Dojoon is complimenting me again, so modest, you are only 20 years old, you have already helped Leessang create last year's title song, and now you are helping jewelry and bigbang write songs, judging from the news I received, they are the title songs of the new album, just this point, it shows that the quality of your songs is so high, I can't even imagine, I am very good friends with YG's President Yang Hyun Suk, with his vision can agree to let your song as the title song, I can't imagine how high your level is!"
Park Jinying played with the wine glass in his hand and said lightly.
As the saying goes. It is not unreasonable to say that the back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves, and the front waves die on the beach.
An artist who has just debuted for a year and has not arrived. He has written several songs one after another, especially the title song of Leessang, which has attracted people's attention to Korean hiphop music and once became one of the must-order songs of the club.
There is no need to deny that Hongdae culture largely determines the direction of popular culture.
Kim Do-jun opened his mouth slightly, and suddenly he didn't know what to say, Brother Zhenying in front of him. One moment laughing non-stop, the other moment it was calm and terrible, as if everything was in my head. Thinking very comprehensively, as for whether to say it or not, it depends on his mood.
Even Kim Do-joon felt that his whole body had been seen through, and he was very uncomfortable. After a while. He paused before speaking.
"These are just other people's evaluations, I know my own strength very well, too dependent on inspiration, the basic skills are not very solid, this is something I need to continue to learn, as for the creation of things, many times I follow Brother Gary and Brother Ji, they are the real producers!"
Kim Do-joon thought it all round. On the one hand, you can't be overly proud and complacent, in front of the seniors. Honesty comes first, and only in this way can you gain the sense of recognition of others.
On the other hand, their own combination is the magic weapon they rely on, without them, it is nothing, which Kim Dojun thinks better than anyone else.
"Inspiration is really a good thing, sometimes I'm like you, suddenly I grab it, and then disappear in an instant, I've heard your songs, it's very good, whether it's in terms of songs, rap, lyrics and rhythm, it's perfect, if it's really what you wrote, you're fully qualified to be a producer and composer!"
Park Jinying nodded and said with satisfaction.
This child is becoming more and more pleasing to the eye, modest but not proud, confident and calm, very big, the key is also very team spirit, for the current artist, it is really rare.
Many artists in Korean groups want solo too much, want to get more popularity, attention, income, announcements, etc., these are honest things that are not honest, but in the eyes of the group, they are a manifestation of no group spirit.
Everything solo is a combination, which is the ultimate goal of Kim Do-joon.
"Really? May I? ”
Kim Do-joon immediately became interested, and when he heard such words from the mouth of the senior, he was inevitably not excited.
"I don't think there's anything wrong with that, as long as you keep working hard, you'll become a good producer and composer! When the time comes, when you write a song, you have to give a discounted price! ”
Park Jin-young joked and said with a slight smile.
"Uh...... All right! I know! ”
Kim Do-jun didn't agree or refuse, after all, he had only called Brother Tiger when he first came.
It's okay to help once, but no more, after all, I'm an artist in the company, and I have to go through the formal process.
What is the market price, then how much is the song, at most you can only look at the relationship and give a certain discount.
You must know that well-known composers and producers can write a few songs a year and be enough for themselves for a year or two, and a prolific composer can write more than a dozen songs a year without any problems.
Eating until the end, Park Jin-young spoke.
"Daojun, I asked you to come out this time, I don't mean anything else, I want to ask you to help, write a song, don't talk yet, let me finish speaking! wondergirls is a group that I spent my hard work to cultivate.,Since its debut in 07,It's an instant hit.,With a song "Tellme" won the love of many people.,Whether it's popularity or attention.,Fans or announcements,It's all skyrocketing.,I also know that Xianyi has a good relationship with you.,Take care of your sister like an older brother.,It may have something to do with the fact that you were both born in Gangwon-do.,But I want to ask you for help.,On the one hand, it's to consolidate their status and enhance their popularity.,On the other hand, I want to work with you to see where their growth space is and if they can reach the desired heights! ”
Kim Do-joon didn't speak, quietly holding his chin, thinking about what Park Jin-young said just now.
It does make a lot of sense and is very tempting.
But Kim Do-joon can't guarantee that every song he writes is popular, and he doesn't have superpowers, if that's really the case, then what's there to worry about, what to want, and do whatever he wants.
If it is not well written, it does not reach the expected heights, so what.
Whether to bet on the future of Wondergirls, Kim Do-joon is deeply skeptical.
glanced at Xianyi and found that she was lowering her head, not speaking, not even looking at each other.
Kim Do-joon sighed, shook his head, and spoke.
"Brother Zhenying, I can promise you to help Xianyi write a song, but I can't guarantee that it will be popular, this is the premise, I think you should understand, second, I can only do my best, if it is mandatory, I may not be able to do it!"
Kim Do-joon also has a heavy task this year, not only to make movies and variety shows, but also to write a lot of songs, even if Brother Gary and Brother Ji have already begun to prepare, they can't hold back.
“ok! No problem, you just say yes! ”
Park Zhenying looked like a matter of course and immediately spoke.
"What about the exact time? When to do it? ”
Kim Do-jun then asked, wanting to be clear, so that he could grasp the time well and not miss it.
"It's April! There are still nearly 3 months to go from now, so it should be about the same! ”
Park Jin-young thought about it, touched his chin, and opened his mouth to respond.
"Hmmm! I know, does Brother Zhenying have any ideas? Let's discuss it first, and I'll find inspiration! ”
Kim Do-joon got to the point at once, the most important thing in writing a song is inspiration and feeling, and once it comes, it can't be stopped.
Park Jinying glanced at Xianyi and said with a smile.
"I just watched a Broadway show some time ago, and I thought if I was cute last year, I could go retro this year, and I think it might be more appropriate!"
Park Jin-young is very sensitive and often goes to the United States, one is to capture the forefront of fashion, listen to the most cutting-edge music, and the other is to capture inspiration so as to write more suitable songs.
Kim Do-joon secretly remembered it in his heart after listening to it.
"Retro feel!"
Nodding his head, he said he understood.
In this way, the night lasted until more than 11 o'clock, and then he said goodbye to Park Jin-young Xianyi.
Lying in bed at home, Kim Do-joon couldn't sleep for a long time, and this time he had insomnia again. (To be continued......)
