Chapter 410: Ambition and Intentions
With Lee Sung-hyun's background, more and more people are known in the entertainment industry. Dealing with the presidents of these brokerage companies, Lee Sung-hyun also seems to be much stronger. Facing Kim Kwang-so, the president, Lee Sung-hyun also doesn't need to be too modest.
At the end of the day, CoreContentsMedia is just an entertainment company under CJ Group. Lee Sung-hyun, who owns a stake in CJ Group, has a much higher status than Kim Kwang-so.
If Lee Sung-hyun wants to meddle in the affairs of Core Entertainment, Kim Kwang-so also needs to actively cooperate. Although it is good to enjoy the shade with your back against a big tree, you need to be subject to many constraints in the same way. This is also the reason why Kim Kwang-so was worried before!
Sitting in the conference room, Kim Kwang-so didn't stay modest for too long, and said with a smile: "Writer Li, I invited you to the company this time to invite a song for Eun Jing and them." I don't know if Writer Li is willing to take some time to write a song for them? ”
In the face of Kim Kwang-so's direct invitation, the six girls sitting in the conference room looked a little expectant and nervous. Although their debut, they haven't experienced too many turmoil. But the rise in popularity is indeed very slow!
In addition, this year, major entertainment companies have launched their own newcomer groups. Even they can clearly feel that the popularity of the new girl group that S.M has just launched recently seems to be growing faster than them.
There are more and more new girl groups, and the market for girl groups is only so big. If they don't speed up to seize the market, they may be overtaken by latecomers in the future, and eventually make them a foil group in the era of the revival of the girl group.
Regarding Kim Kwang-so's invitation, Lee Sung-hyun smiled and said, "I've known Eun Jing and them for a while, if there is a good song." I don't mind giving it to them. It's just that I want to ask, how did President Kim position them? ”
Such an inquiry. Kim Kwang-so paused in surprise and said, "The company's positioning for them is to hope that they will develop in addition to the music industry." Everyone can also develop in other industries.
At present, the company is contacting advertising and actors for Enjing, and other companies have detailed development plans for it. But Writer Li should know that these plans are more based on their popular support. ”
After listening to Kim Kwang-so's answer, Lee Sung-hyun smiled and said, "The name of the group T-ara should be derived from the English Tiara, which means that she will become the queen of the song world. There is also an explanation for the triple crown of the papacy.
From the name of this group, it can be seen that President Kim has high expectations for them. But that's what I want to say. If they want to wear this honor, they must need to put in more effort than others.
I believe President Kim also knows some things about me. Write songs for them, in fact, as long as Enjing invites them, I will not refuse. President Kim should know that I didn't write songs for money, but more out of friendship and support.
But after going through so many things, if you write a song for them this time. I have two conditions that I hope President Kim will consider. If President Kim could say that, I wouldn't mind writing a song for them. ”
Mention the conditions! This was a bit of a surprise to Kim Kwang-so!
But Lee Sung-hyun's explanation of the name of the T-ata group surprised him somewhat. can be interpreted in this way. It makes the six girls feel that there is something profound. In fact, this is just the source of the 'crown group'!
'It's okay for Writer Li to speak up! ’
Either way, Kim Kwang-so knows one thing very well. That is, Lee Sung-hyun really wants to meddle in the company's affairs. He was afraid that he would not be able to refuse. Unless he really dares, break away from the support of the parent company. It is operated independently like S.M and JYP.
But it's almost unlikely, how influential CJ is in South Korea. Kim Kwang-so knew it very well in his heart. The price of betraying CJ is something he can't afford at all.
Hyun Eun Jing and the others, who were also curious about what conditions Lee Sung-hyun would mention, soon heard Lee Sung-hyun say: "First, it is the captain of T-ara, I hope that it will not change in the future, if the captain is to be changed, let them decide for themselves."
Second, I hope that there will be no increase in the selection of T-ara combinations in the future. If one of them withdraws, the rule is null and void. But in my opinion, Eun Jing, you shouldn't have thought about quitting the group, right? ”
These two conditions were said, not to mention that Kim Kwang-so didn't understand it, even Xian Eunjing and the others were very surprised. Xian Enjing, in particular, was a little flattered. She knew very well that one of the conditions was specifically for her!
‘oppa! ’
Faced with the surprise on Xian Eunjing's face, Li Shengxian waved his hand and motioned for them to sit down. continued, "When I was writing songs for Girls' Generation, I had a hunch that the next few years would be an era of revival for girl groups.
President Kim should know that with my family background, I may be able to have a better career than I have now. Even if I don't do any work, I don't have to worry about my livelihood. President Kim shouldn't deny this, right? ”
Although he was a little curious as to why Lee Sung-hyun would make such a condition, Kim Kwang-so had to admit that what Lee Sung-hyun was saying now was sincere. With such a net worth background, Li Shengxian really doesn't have to work, and he can live better than many people.
Nodding with a smile and not speaking, Li Shengxian continued: "Everyone has some ideals. I don't like business or politics. I hope I can do something I love.
My mentors at Seoul National University were also very opposed to my current career, and they and my elders would prefer to see me work in the financial field. But personally, I don't really like this arrangement, I want to live the life I like.
In my opinion, the entertainment industry also plays a large role in the proportion of the Korean economy. With the advent of the Internet era, the scale and output value of the Korean entertainment industry will also be further improved.
In the next step, I will set up a brokerage company specializing in the promotion of Korean entertainment, targeting more markets in Asia and even Europe and the United States. I am helping them now in the hope that I will get their help in the future.
I know that your major brokerage companies also have their own operating channels. But I believe that in the future, you will cooperate with me, and the profits will be greater. At least I have more connections and resources than you, right? ”
As soon as these words came out, Kim Kwang-so really understood how ambitious the young man in front of him was. It is indeed a big deal not to compete with domestic brokerage companies to compete for the market, and to specialize in an operating company similar to an agent.
But Kim Kwang-so must admit that if Lee Sung-hyun really runs this thing as a career. These brokerage companies based in South Korea are really inferior to Li Shengxian in terms of capital and connections.
And this is also the first time that Li Shengxian has revealed his ambitions and intentions for the future to insiders. All in all, Lee Sung-hyun hopes to become a true leader in the Korean Wave in the future. That's why he put these two conditions in mind! (To be continued......)
