Chapter 111: Li Xiuman's Ambition
"Junyoung is here? Sitting"
Li Xiuman, who had a kind face, pointed to the sofa seat in front of him, there was no terrifying aura of the legendary 'black-faced god of war' at all, and Li Xiuman still seemed very kind to his nephew of the same clan, especially this time he called Li Junrong to ask for something.
"Uncle Xiuman, sit down, I'll do this myself!"
"It's okay, I only have pure water here, don't you dislike it? Ha ha! Li Xiuman helped pour two glasses of water, and then sat down on the sofa.
"How can you dislike it, if my dad knows about it when I go home, I should definitely fix it!" Li Junrong said with a smile that no matter what he learned about Li Xiuman's image in the past, at least it was not bad based on his own experience.
Li Xiuman sat on the sofa next to him, looking at his nephew Li Junrong in front of him and talking about his son, "Junrong, do you have time recently?" Hyun-kyu: He keeps saying you didn't go to play with him! ”
Saying that, Li Xiuman also showed a sense of relief, revealing a trace of love for his children, "It's not too small, I know how to find this and that all day long!" ”
Li Xiankui is Li Xiuman's eldest son, thirteen years old this year, and he has always been a runny kid playing behind his ass in his impression, but now he is a handsome guy compared to his father Li Xiuman himself.
"I happen to be idle at home, I'll take a look tomorrow, I haven't seen him for a long time, I don't know if he has found a girlfriend!"
"Don't teach him this, you might as well sue him when he's a little older!" Li Xiuman stopped Li Junrong's thoughts with a smile, and looked at Li Junrong's eyes revealing a trace of satisfaction.
If it is said in the big clan of the Li family. If the younger generation is the least successful, then Li Junrong at the beginning must be the first to be criticized by name. Although he bears the name of his father, the construction tycoon Lee Chong-geun. However, Li Junrong's study and life experience has always reassured the Li family.
The bad problems that have been dyed between the gentlemen have declined, and although they are smart, they have not used this cleverness where it should be.
Li Junrong is also surnamed Li. However, the Li family he is in is not the Li family of the Samsung Group, but there is no internal struggle, because almost all the members of the clan have their own development in various industries, whether it is entertainment, construction, technology, politics, etc., although it looks loose from the outside, but if it is condensed, it is also a force that cannot be ignored.
Li Xiuman can be said to have seen Li Junrong's changes with his own eyes, whether it is dealing with people or things, or his personality, the current Li Junrong is much more mature than last year's Li family banquet.
Although Li Xiuman himself did not believe that experiencing a car accident would bring about such a big change. But Li Junrong's actual situation is in front of him, and he can't be suspicious.
On the phone, Li Chonggen once talked to him more than once about the changes that Li Junrong could see with the naked eye.
Whether Li Junrong has the same talent for business as his father, Li Xiuman also does not know, but from the observation during this time, Li Junrong's knowledge of the entertainment industry is indeed involved, and some novel ideas even Li Xiuman has to praise twice.
"I heard that you took a leave of absence from Sungkyunkwan?" Li Xiuman also heard the news just some time ago, and his eyes when he looked at Li Junrong also revealed some doubts. In South Korea, although it is not said that academic qualifications are considered to be great, a small diploma is still quite useful, for example, the discussion caused by the exposure of Lee Junrong's academic qualifications on the Internet.
"It's not a suspension. It's just that it's important to focus on your own studio now, and get off to an early start! Li Junrong opened his mouth to explain that although he didn't want to experience school life again, there were some management things that were not easy for him to discover. The experience in school is also important.
After listening to Li Junrong's explanation, Li Xiuman also nodded in approval, although the school experience is probably not as rich as in the shopping mall. But this is a step-by-step process, and the process of supplementing knowledge and learning is important.
"Do you know why I called you today?" The two talked for a while. Li Xiuman led the topic to today's main topic.
"Is it for the mini-album thing?" Li Junrong asked rhetorically, but he already had the answer in his heart.
Today, after some explanations from Jin Yizhi. Lee Junrong also has a general understanding of the composition of the S.M company, among which the former president Kim Young-wook and Lee so-man are divided into courts, the two from the very beginning of the establishment of the S.M company, usually may have different opinions, but not incompatible, many times it is also Lee so-man who controls the direction of the S.M company's huge entertainment aircraft carrier.
From H.O.T, TVXQ, SuperJunior, these top boy groups are all controlled by Lee so-man, whether it is the direction of the market or the fan crowd faced, Lee so-man's vision can be said to be the first person in the Korean entertainment industry today.
However, this changed from the day Kim Young-min joined S.M's Korea headquarters.
Kim Young-min, who graduated from the Department of Sociology of Korea University in South Korea, has his own set of new ideas for doing business, and after joining S.M. ENTERTAINMENT, he served as the head of the overseas business group and carried out a series of reform measures, the most famous of which is naturally the overseas selection activities carried out by S.M Company, and the first person to be selected is also the Chinese member of the popular boy group SuperJunior in South Korea - Han Geng.
In 2005, he joined the Korean headquarters of S.M, and in 2006, he took over the position of president and acting director, Kim Young-min's ideas began to conflict and contradict some of Lee so-man's decisions.
JYP's Wonde Girls launched the slogan of the girl group competition in the second half of 2007, and S.M followed suit with the launch of Girls' Generation, in an attempt to get a piece of the cake of the rising girl group. The main promoter of this project is Kim Young-min, and Lee so-man agrees with his plan, but disagrees with some of his ideas.
As a result, some contradictions began to arise from this.
"Now that you know, what's your opinion?" Li Xiuman also wanted to test Li Junrong, so he stopped talking halfway through his words.
"Is the current company focusing on girls' generation? Will there be any problems with the skew of resources? ”
"No, the project on Girls' Generation's side is through his own channels, and on your side, I am going to use some resources from GuòSuperJunior to achieve it, and in your current situation, the resources needed are very small!" Li Xiuman is talking about the number of audio downloads on the Internet.
Lee so-man's move is not to fight with his own company, but more like a mini album with Lee Jun-young to make his voice heard to the outside world, 'S.M company is not up to him Kim Young-min alone!' ’。
In private, Kim Young-min is not very optimistic about Lee so-man's move, in his opinion, Lee Jun-young's online video is more like a carnival of nostalgia among netizens, and only loneliness is left after the carnival. And compared with an artist like Lee Junrong, who became a monk halfway, Kim Young-min believes more in the trainees that the company has worked hard to cultivate for several years.
The popularity of music source downloads can only represent the wide spread of online events, and the sales of mini albums are more important, and it is undoubtedly more difficult for Li Junrong, who has no foundation, to achieve a satisfactory sales.
Li Xiuman is very confident in his nephew, Li Junrong can be said to be genetically good, although a face is not very handsome, but in the world of handsome and cute men from all walks of life in the Korean song industry, the sunny and sincere face is even more intimate. Although he has not undergone very professional vocal learning, Li Junrong's voice conditions are very good, why can't he become popular when he can play, sing and create?
Li Xiuman, who is well versed in entertainment and publicity, can naturally see Li Junrong's star journey, and all he needs to do is to add a fire to the end of this online incident! (To be continued......)
