Chapter 210: Reasons to postpone a new album

"Boss~ According to the doctor's speculation, JunJin's recovery after surgery will only take two months at most, and he will be able to return to normal work at that time, and it will not have a great impact on the production of the new album of the 'Mythic' group... You see if this plan is extended to next year, isn't it... What's wrong? Li Meina stood solemnly behind Cui Zhenlong, leaning forward slightly, holding her chest, her demeanor was respectful, without the slightest transgression, even when she spoke, she seemed to be extraordinarily soft-spoken, cautious, and completely devoid of the image of a strong woman who is resolute and resolute and resolute when dealing with outsiders.

"President Miena Lee, you were also involved in the negotiations with S.M. at the beginning, do you remember one of the agreements we signed with the other party? It's about the part about Comet Shin..."Choi Jin-ryong turned around, his eyes fixed on the woman in front of him who was old enough to be his mother.

"Are you referring to the S-Combination plan proposed by S.M. that requires Comet Shin to get involved?"

"That's right! Since the 'mythical' group left the S. Masse After the M company, the other party has created a delicate vacuum period in the boy group market, and there is no other boy group singer who can handle it in an emergency, the existing Fly/to/the/sky has been tepid for many years, and it is difficult to trust the heavy responsibility, and the new boy group has not had time to be fully prepared, and even if they are arranged to debut in a hurry now, it is unknown whether they can quickly fill the market gap left by the departure of the 'myth'. ”

Cui Zhenlong paused in his tone after saying this, walked back to his place and sat down, picked up a pen and rubbed the cap back and forth, and continued: "The safest way is to select singers who have become famous and have outstanding individual singing strength to make their debut, which is the so-called S group... With the popularity that Lee Ji-hoon, Ahn Qi-hyun and Shin Comet have accumulated over the years, they will surely attract the attention of fans from all walks of life, and there is no need to worry about the sales of the album. In this way, S.M will continue to maintain its leading position in the men's group market, as long as it survives this special period, then the new men's group will have enough time to prepare and arrange their debut, and then they can take over this temporary combination and form a perfect process of replacing the old and the new, and this is the response that S.M has come up with..."

"And if we release a new album at this time, it will inevitably form a situation where the S group and 'Mythology' will fight each other, which is also in the hands of each other, and the same member in two different groups is really a good hype topic... Hmph~~ You might as well empathize, if I am the person in charge of S.M, I will never give up such an opportunity, as long as I use a little means to push a force behind the back, spread rumors that Comet Shen intends to get out of the 'myth' and return to S. M… President Lee, what do you think will happen? ”

Cui Zhenlong raised his head and glanced at the thoughtful middle-aged woman, and without waiting for the other party to speak, he said the answer in his heart: "The members of the 'Mythic' group are in internal turmoil, and there is a trend of instability and even division among fans. P.C&G is also too busy dealing with these issues. At that time, even if the new album of 'Mythology' is announced, its effects and influence will be greatly reduced, which is definitely a very serious blow to our newly established company. ”

"But we can't afford to lose!" 'Myth' is the only and only trump card in our hand, and if the 'Myth' combination can't take advantage of the momentum, then we C. P.C&G will not be able to really open up a position in the Korean music industry in the next few years, at least. In this way, for S.M, we have solved our competitors in the same industry without blood. This ~ is S.M's plan to kill two birds with one stone! ”

Li Meina nodded, and said in agreement: "Boss, the possibility you said is indeed very high, since Comet Shen joining the S group cannot be stopped, then rumors must be inevitable." I will also personally watch out for the members of the 'myth' and get them to pay attention to their words in public. And the new album is planned to be slowed down, which can give us more time to prepare, and I have already sent out invitations to a number of independent songwriters, and I think it will be a good harvest in the future. ”

This President Li is really quick and clear-minded, Cui Zhenlong just said her analysis, she grasped the key point of the words, and also put forward a coping strategy. In this regard, the boy also showed a smile on his face, very satisfied with the other party's appearance, proving that his vision was right, although the other party was a woman, he was indeed a capable person.

It wasn't until Lee Mi-na walked out of the office that Choi Jin-ryong, who had a bland face, became gloomy again, and in fact he didn't say the real reason for letting "Myth" postpone the release of the new album. What kind of S group, he didn't pay too much attention to it at all, one only signed an album agreement, how long will the temporary patchwork group last? And how much impact will it have? Whether it can continue to exist in the future depends entirely on Cui Zhenlong's mood, if he insists on not letting Shen Comet continue to participate, this S combination will inevitably die halfway.

What really made Cui Zhenlong jealous was someone else!

Lee Hyo-ri, the former captain of the Korean girl group Fin.k.l, the future "national goblin", and the female singer who almost won the solo triple crown is not a simple figure. If Cui Zhenlong's memories of her past life are not wrong, 2003 is the year of her real rise, and the most famous masterpiece "10/minutes" should be published in the second half of this year.

It is no exaggeration to say that just when Lee Hyori's song MV came out, the word "sexy" was redefined in South Korea, a relatively conservative country, and many young generations suddenly discovered that "sexy" does not mean the amount of clothing on the body, but can be interpreted in more ways and methods. As a result, many people began to imitate Lee Hyo-ri's usual behavior, dressing style, etc., and gradually this trend became more and more fierce, becoming a unique scenery in South Korea, a phenomenon called the "Lee Hyo-ri effect" by industry insiders.

In the original time and space, the infinite charm of Lee Hyori during this period has indeed achieved the point of killing both men and women in South Korea, and it can really be said to be the peak stage of "this woman comes out, and the heroes are easy" in the industry. Cui Zhenlong doesn't have the confidence to use the current "myth" to confront her, it is completely uncomfortable to find it by himself, or to retreat to the next best thing and avoid its edge.

But now there is another question lingering in Cui Zhenlong's mind, that is, has the song "10/minutes" been made now? There hasn't been much of a news from the DSP so far.

Originally, Cui Zhenlong felt a little remorseful in his heart, and he forgot to copy this classic song in advance. Even if the company doesn't need it, it can be sold, and in that case, the initiative will be completely in his own hands, and there is no need to bother thinking about countermeasures.

But now it seems to be a little late to say anything, but it's not completely hopeless, if it is because of Cui Zhenlong, the original "10/minutes" will be "fanned", it is completely possible. In that case, it would be good news for Cui Zhenlong, but if history still hasn't changed much, then at most it will be implemented according to the original plan.
