Next chapter
Lee Chong drove Jessica back to the dormitory and then came to Kim Min Sun's studio, this time he completely delegated the editing, so except for the previous time to tell Sù Kim Min Sun what style he wanted, he never came again, Kim Min Sun and Zhang Xun said that without Lee Chong fighting with him on the side, he was still a little unaccustomed.
"How? I'll just say that there must be no problem with editing like this, this time you see, how good" Kim Min-sun applied the technical techniques that he had been arguing with Lee Chong to the movie "National Representative" like a child.
"Mr. Jin, please leave this movie to you, in fact, I didn't interfere because my heart was disturbed." Li Chong said solemnly after watching a small clip edited by Kim Min-sun.
Jin Min saw that Li Chong was so solemn and put away his smile, "What happened?"
"Last year, I impulsively made a bet with CJ Entertainment's Yoo so-ri, and then he invested in the disaster film "Haeundae", and the "Seventh-level Civil Servant" I filmed was originally a bait, a bait that fished "Haeundae", but unfortunately Yoo so-ri did not take the bait, even if the box office of "Seventh-level Civil Servant" has exceeded 5.8 million people, I still have no confidence in "National Representative" because its opponent is too strong" Li Chong said the reason why he was upset.
""Haeundae", that's really a big production, director Yoon Jijun is also an award-winning director, this movie must also be ambitious, it seems that your opponent is really strong!" Kim Min-sun said with emotion after listening to what Li Chong said.
"Well, so my heart is a little messy, and this mentality is no longer suitable for editing films, so I'm going to trouble Mr. Jin this time." Li Zhong stood up and saluted formally.
"Li Chong, do you have time? Can you come out and talk? Li Chong received an unexpected phone call, Li Xiuman's call.
SM company is separated by a café two streets, Li Chong now has to go out tightly, a few days ago he was almost blocked in the supermarket, someone recognized him as the talent in "Seventh-level Civil Servant", and then the people in the supermarket began to gather in front of him, Li Chong had to say a few words, and then fled before everyone could react.
So today Li Chong came out with a hat, sunglasses, and a mask fully armed.
"Director Li Xiuman." After Li Chong sat down, he took a sip of water first, Seoul was already 30 degrees, and he still covered himself so tightly.
"Director Li Chong is finally here." Li Xiuman saw that Li Chong's outfit originally had some depressed faces, and he had a hint of a smile.
"Is there something wrong with me? I have to come out and talk about it. Li clicked on a cup of coffee, then looked at Li Xiuman and asked.
"The OST of your new movie, I want Changmin to sing it." Li Xiuman said.
As soon as Li Chong heard it, he understood what Li Xiuman meant. In fact, Li Chong should not participate in this kind of thing, after all, it is an unspoken rule that everyone knows that the agency squeezes artists, and it is understandable that you want to go solo and run away if you become a famous artist, after all, the company is not in place, and you have every reason to leave. However, TVXQ and the company have revised the contract five times, and the last one was recently revised, why do you dare not admit it now when you admitted it four months ago?
Li Chong really doesn't look down on this mastermind behind the scenes. "It doesn't matter, but the song must be in tune, otherwise the song won't be good."
"There's no problem with this, I'm also looking for an OST song that fits the theme. Another thing is that I want to borrow some money from you" Li Xiuman blushed a rare blush when he said this.
"Ah, Director Li Xiuman, are you short of money? I can't do it" Li Xiuman said that he was short of money, and Li Chong was the first to believe it
"I'll give you 25% of the shares for two years, and I'll pay 10% more after two years." Of course, Li Xiuman understood what he was talking about.
"Why? I want to know the reason" It's not that Li Chong can't lend money to Li Xiuman, but because Li Chong has to figure it out.
"Our company's second largest shareholder, Japan Aihui Corporation, is interested in selling our company's shares." Li Xiuman said.
Li Chong understood what he meant when he heard it, Li Xiuman was planning to buy back his own shares, and now is just right, because it is the cheapest time, Li Xiuman is still very confident in his company.
"How much are you going to borrow?" Li Xiuman only has a total of 26.75% of the shares in his hands, and this time he will mortgage 25% to Li Chong, is that going to be in his hands?
"Two million dollars, I know you have it." Li Xiuman said directly. He just saw that Li Chong had dollars in his hand to find Li Chong, and now the Korean won has depreciated too much, even if he uses the funds of the Japanese branch of SM Company to buy Ai Hui's shares, it is not so easy, and it seems that only Li Chong can get so much money in South Korea, because he doesn't know that there are US dollars and the yen earned by Kara.
"$20 million?" Li Zhong pondered, he really had these dollars in his hands, but they were basically all he had, and more than half of the dollars in his hands had been spent on the previous series of operations.
"But, but I have one condition. I'm going to leave 10% of the shares. Li Zhong felt that SM was definitely underestimated by Yan Zhan at this time.
"Eh" Li Xiuman just doesn't want the company's shares to fall into the hands of other hot people, but if Li Zhong holds shares
"Director Li Chong, if you can entrust me with full authority to vote, I don't mind introducing you to contact Ai Hui in Japan." Li Xiuman suddenly changed his mind, maybe this direction is also good.
Li Chong doesn't mind this voting right, anyway, he has a lot of companies in his hands now, and there is no need to compete with Li Xiuman, besides, is there still an SM company without Li Xiuman?
"Yes, anyway, I want to buy some SM shares for investment, I can not participate in the management, and give you the voting rights, but what can I get? After all, with such a large investment, if I make a movie, I can make many films," Li Zhong said.
"What do you want? Anything I can do. "Li Xiuman has been tortured by the TVXQ incident recently, and Japan's Ai Hui has inserted a knife at this time, so he is very concerned about things that can be solved without him spending money.
"I want the right to operate SM's artists in China." Li Zhong said.
"Eh" Li Xiuman hesitated, he has always had ambitions for Chinese mainland, and it is also the best done by these entertainment companies in South Korea in the mainland, when Hotses held concerts in China, and in recent years he has set up a SuperJunior-M to deal with the mainland market.
"Why China?" Li Xiuman felt that although the Chinese market was huge, the environment for making music was not good, and genuine records could not be sold
"Hehe, you don't have to worry about this kind of thing, you just have to give it to me, and then I'll talk about it when the time comes" Of course, Li Chong wouldn't tell Li Xiuman about some of the things he discovered
