Chapter 209: "Myth" Signing

The movie "Memories of Murder" was released in France in mid-May, and it was released in France through the overseas channel of guòCGV, which is a very good news to be congratulated, and it also marks the first time that C.P's film and television works have landed in the European market, and all employees are full of confidence in the company's future development.

The admiration and longing of the South Koreans for the United States and the entire Western world is really deep in their bones, and even the slightest achievement in the international community will magnify and exaggerate it to the point of incomprehensibility, and they wish that everyone in the world would know about these achievements and look at them differently and sing praises of them.

Fortunately, Choi Jin-ryong's soul is not a native of Korea, and he has not been affected by this trend of thought, although he was also happy when he received this news, but he will not be completely dizzy and unwarrantedly blind and arrogant like others. Although it is indeed a good thing that the film "Memories of Murder" can be released in France, the buyout price of only 1 million euros is really a bit painful, and this money is not all C.P company, of which CGV has to take out part of the commission, and there is not much sincerity that really falls into his own pocket.

The only consolation is that the production cost of this film is not high, and the box office revenue in the country alone can make C.P a lot of profits, and the rest of the overseas income can be regarded as additional income. But even so, Cui Zhenlong still felt a faint pain, this Nima watched others make a lot of money in the market with their own things, but he could only make some small profits, and anyone who put such a thing on him would feel extremely unhappy.

Of course, in the final analysis, there is a huge gap in the balance of power between the two sides. The simple truth that big fish eat small fish and small fish eat shrimp applies to all areas of all walks of life. At this moment, Cui Zhenlong is also more determined in his heart to build a complete film and television industry chain plan, so that he can have the confidence to have an equal dialogue with those industry giants, so that he will not be bullied so much.

However, this qiē is now just a beautiful blueprint, and it is only a plan on paper, the road has to be walked step by step, and the meal still has to be eaten in one bite, Cui Zhenlong temporarily put down the long-term plan of C.P Film and Television Company, and refocused his attention on the new music company C.P.C&G.

After entering May, the plan to sign the "Myth" group has entered the final stage of substantive negotiations, and Cui Zhenlong has a deeper understanding of the senior executives of S.M company who are desperate for money. All the songs of "Myth", the names of the group, and the right to use the stage names of the members were packaged together, and the lion opened his mouth and asked for 2 billion won. What made Cui Zhenlong even more angry was that the trademark right of "Shinhwa" had been sold to someone else by S.M in advance, which meant that the original fishbone-shaped logo "mythical" combination could not be used in the future, and he had to choose another one, otherwise it would involve infringement and a lawsuit would be lost.

"Is this the last thing you want to block me?" Cui Zhenlong covered his forehead and roared unwillingly. This time, this guy really has a complete grudge against S.M Company in his heart, even if his own Abba still has a considerable number of shares in it, but what about it? In the end, this company is not under his control, the other party dares to play behind his back, Cui Zhenlong is not a person who swallows his anger after suffering a loss, as long as he finds an opportunity, he will mercilessly collect the account one by one.

Although I was very unhappy, but what should be done was to continue to do, and then the two sides bargained and pulled each other on the price of 2 billion, several times Cui Zhenlong wanted to directly shake off his hand and stop talking, the "mythical" members will automatically terminate the contract after the expiration of the contract, there is nothing to do with S.M company, as long as the six of them are in hand, they can mix in the entertainment industry with a different group name, and then the right to use the mythical name will be completely rotten in the hands of S.M company, see who else they can sell to.

However, as one of the parties involved, ERIC and the other six people are also bullish, insisting on hoping that C.P.C&G can buy out the use rights of all kinds of projects extended by the "mythical" combination at one time, even if they can put money into it.

For the persistence of these people, Cheng Dù and Cui Zhenlong are also quite helpless. There was no way, he could only endure and order Li Meina to continue to deal with S.M. Company. Until the end of May, this annoying thing finally settled, the final transaction price was 1.8 billion won, at the same time the six members of the "Myth" group also happily signed their names on the new contract provided by C.P.C&G, in addition to clarifying the respective rights and obligations of both parties, the most critical revenue sharing has also been adjusted accordingly, the proportion is 64, the company 6, "Myth" 4, and the contract period is as long as 8 years...

"Is this the 'mythical' combination that I signed for such a large amount of money? … Hey, Xi~~" Cui Zhenlong slammed the stack of essays in his hand on the desk, his entire handsome face turned red, his sword eyebrows frowned into an inverted figure-of-eight, and his fists clenched and slammed on the table. He felt that he was about to explode, and his heart was in a panic, not knowing how to vent this anger. But don't get me wrong, the object of Cui Zhenlong's anger is not the members of the "mythical" group, but the "vampires" in the S.M company who only recognize money and do not recognize people.

This thing still has to start from the beginning, just after "Myth" signed with C.P.C&G company, Cui Zhenlong specially instructed Li Meina to arrange for them to do a full body examination, and now the physical examination report has come out, which shows that the "Myth" six people have been on the verge of collapse due to long-term continuous high-intensity work, and JunJin's physical condition is the most severe, his left eye has been very poor due to a serious head injury in the early days, and now he is almost blind, It has affected normal life and work, and the doctor's advice is that surgery is needed immediately, otherwise it may cause permanent blindness.

After reading these reports, Cui Zhenlong will of course be furious, he spent so much money, but what he finally signed was a "mythical" combination in a semi-crippled state, what they need most now is to rest well and adjust their mental state. This is like a machine, and it has to stop from time to time for maintenance and care under long-term operation, not to mention that the six of them are all living people!

After a fire, Cui Zhenlong gradually calmed down, the matter is a foregone conclusion, irreparable, no matter how much you complain, it has no effect, and solving the existing predicament is the top priority. He immediately decided to give the members of "Mythology" ten days off first, but ERIC and Comet Shin may have to work hard, the two of them can only have three days off, and then they have to return to the crew of "Love Apartment" to continue filming, and now this series has entered the final stage, and it would not be possible without their two leading actors. As for JunJin, he was urgently ordered to suspend his activities, and C.P.C&G will contact the best eye hospital in South Korea to treat his eyes, and will not be allowed to appear in public until he is cured.

This news was also highlighted in the latest issue of "Dispatch", and JunJin's current condition was detailed in detail. At the same time, C.P.C&G also stated that the new album plan of the "Myth" group in the second half of the year will also be temporarily shelved, waiting for JunJin's healthy return before restarting, and finally hopes that the majority of fans can understand.

This announcement was immediately reprinted by other entertainment newspapers, causing a great sensation. Other "Myth" members, such as ERIC, have also publicly supported the New Economy company's decision, claiming that "Myth" has always been a six-person group, and none of them can be missing.

"JunJin, we'll wait for you to come back!"
