"Hello, Lee Hyori XI!" Ji Ran looked at the legendary woman in front of him with a calm expression, but Li Juli and Quan Baolan behind him were not so calm.

Lee Hyori, the former member of FIN.K.L, is considered the ancestor of South Korea's girl group! In 2003, because of the DSP project, he flew solo and became popular with a song "Ten Minutes", and won the title of "National Goblin" at the same time. Although its popularity has declined in recent years, its status and qualifications are also rare in the entertainment industry.

"Hello, Ji Ran XI! That's who you introduced? Li Xiaoli looked at the two girls and greeted with a smile: "Hello, junior sister!" ”

That's right, Lee Hyo-ri is a C&J person who signed an artist, and although it doesn't seem to be very pleasant at the moment, T-ara is really her younger sister. And Ji Ran, of course, did not find the other party through the relationship of guò CCM, but through some of his own connections! For example, Lee Seung-joon, an important assistant to the C&J Entertainment Minister.

"Hello Lee Hyori senior!"

Although Li Juli is a little arrogant, when she stepped into the entertainment industry, she was ready for these! So there is no problem in etiquette. Not to mention Quanbaolan, the girl was born in an acting family.

"Okay, she'll leave it to you, and I'll pick it up in twenty days." Ji Ran smiled, and then said a few polite words before leaving.

He didn't bother to deal with female artists other than T-ara, even if it was a goblin. It's not that I look down on it, but because of my character, to put it bluntly! It's that Lee Hyo-ri has limited help to him, and even if he makes friends, he just has one more friend, and it's useless.

Li Xiaoli smiled and watched Ji Ran leave the practice room, and then began to look at Li Juli and Quan Baolan: "Do you know what you are doing here?" ”

"Learn!" The two thought for a moment and said in unison.

"Nope. It's a show! Lee Hyo-ri vetoed the two of them's answers and winked at the assistant behind him.

Then a group of young men and women dressed in different clothes walked in one after another, and Lee Hyori smiled and snapped his fingers: "In the next few days, you will follow me for a commercial performance, for a week!" You have a week to learn my dances, and whether you learn it or not, you all have to go on stage and perform. So you'd better both work hard, and as for failure, I don't like failure. ”

Li Juli and Quan Baolan glanced at each other, feeling a little like crying without tears. Lee Hyori is known for his live performances with a strong appeal. Most of them are very attractive and powerful dance moves. The requirements for backup dancers are naturally much higher, and the two of them ...... One is a halfway monk, and the other is simply used to play in a band.

"There's not much time, let's get started." Lee Hyori's style is notoriously vigorous and resolute, and many artists who work with him have this evaluation. And the two girls now realized it, and walked into the backup dance team with a bitter face and began a twenty-day emergency training.

After leaving the C&J headquarters, Ji Ran drove directly to the Yeouido MBC building. There was an accident on the broadcast of the "Workplace" program. Someone...... was accidentally eliminated, and the reason is - this guy has a bad reputation.

Thinking of the reason why the other party was eliminated, Ji Ran was speechless for a while! But there's nothing to comment on. If it weren't for the fact that I liked the other party's resume, there was also a table in the preliminary round. He didn't bother to bother with that.

When Ji Ran arrived, it was already around two o'clock in the afternoon, and looking at the burly man sitting on the floor of the corridor in a daze, he couldn't help but feel a chill. This kind of goods. It's a GAY.

"Wu Zhuohao XI, hello!" After hesitating, Ji Ran still stepped forward and said. Looking at the man in front of him with a puzzled look, he continued: "I am the head of FW Media and the sponsor of "Workplace" Ji Ran. ”

"Do you have something to do with me!" Wu Zhuohao was stunned for a moment, and then regained the decadent expression he had just now.

"I want to hire you." Ji Ran didn't bother to be polite, Wu Zhuohao was a rare person who could get a full score in the first exam. Coupled with the other party's previous management experience, he didn't bother to care about the other party's sexual orientation, what he wanted was talent.

"Huh?" Wu Zhuohao was stunned.

"I said I wanted to hire you, and I wanted you to be the head of the link between CCM and FW Media, and I would be responsible for managing all the cooperation between our two companies." Ji Ran said very directly, it doesn't need to be so complicated to invite people.

"Really?" Wu Zhuohao finally came back to his senses and asked subconsciously! Seeing Ji Ran's brows furrowed, he immediately changed his words: "Thank you, President Ji!" ”

"No, I'm not the president! You can call me a director. Ji Ran smiled and waved his hand, he would not manage affairs: "In order to find you, I haven't had lunch yet, let's talk while eating." ”

"Hmm!" Oh Zhuohao's mouth was about to crack with a smile, and he didn't know why, but after winning the first stage of the rematch, his experience in Incheon suddenly came out. And South Korea attaches great importance to the preservation of Confucianism, so it ...... He's cupped.

Because of the image points, it was directly brushed down. I thought I was completely finished, but I didn't expect that I was actually favored by the person in charge of the organizer.

"How much do you know about artist management?"

found a casual fast food restaurant, Ji Ran ordered two set meals and said to Wu Zhuohao sitting down.

"Not much, but I've done marketing management, and I've studied S.M's planning and JYP's planning." Wu Zhuohao used to work in an entertainment agency, and he is also half of the entertainment industry.

"Then tell me, if you want an artist to become popular! What conditions are required. Ji Ran's eyes lit up, what he lacked was talent in this area.

According to S.M's concept, the image of the artist is implanted in the hearts of fans with frequent exposure, and then the already popular artists are used to increase gimmick attention to newcomers. The most important thing is that S.M attaches great importance to the maintenance and organization of the fan base, and has always emphasized the concept that ANTI is also a fan. Wu Zhuohao took a sip of Coke and said very smoothly.

Ji Ran put down the hamburger in his hand and looked at Wu Zhuohao with great interest, this GAY seems to be really a treasure: "What about JYP?" ”

"JYP is more humane, and Park Jin-young is ...... to artists Very merciful! How to say it, their artists are very humane, so there will be a lot of die-hard meals, but they will be weaker than S.M in the group. Wu Zhuohao hesitated for a moment before continuing.

"If a new girl group is handed over to you now, there is no shortage of resources and good works, how will you build them." Ji Ran simply gave up eating, wiped his mouth, looked at Wu Zhuohao curiously and said.

"First of all, I will look for positioning based on the style of the members, and there will be a transition period! That is, the incubation period. Then go through guò variety shows, commercial performances, and TV to increase exposure, if there are good works...... That would be quicker, but the details will not be worked out until you see the actual thing. Wu Zhuohao thought about it for a while, he had considered these things a long time ago.

"Not bad!" smiled and praised it, but Wu Zhuohao didn't have time to be happy, Ji Ran continued: "But it's too old, there is nothing new, three days!" I will give you the information of T-ara and draw up a plan that satisfies me. ”

"Even if you don't have anything new in your plan, I'll hire you! But I think you want to be able to have a better position as well, so you'd better put some thought into it. Ji Ran smiled and picked up the hamburger again and began to eat it, if Wu Zhuohao was really a talent, then he wouldn't mind letting Kim Kwang-so's dead fat man get out of the way.

"I ...... I understand. Wu Zhuohao stared at Ji Ran for a few seconds, then gritted his teeth and said firmly. (To be continued......)
