Chapter 58: The American Dream
The idols who debuted as a group basically have ambitions for solo songs. Especially the lead singers, who have even greater ambitions for solo songs. For a long time, whether it is a men's group or a women's group, one of the issues that will be questioned is singing skills. Because of the large number of people in the group, each person may only have one or two sentences, and it is difficult to show singing skills. A good solo song can not only prove one's strength, but also greatly increase one's popularity, and Taeyeon's "What If" is an example of how to succeed when she was a girl going through complete adversity, this is the ability of solo songs.
"Oppa for 龗 what will give you solo songs? What kind of songs? Hey yi, I'll just say oppa eccentric, I just like to be busy! I like to be long! When Sunny heard Seo Hyun's words, he began to complain. I've known Li Min OPPA for more than nine years, why don't you give me solo songs, I'm also the lead singer! ”
"Hing!I'm the lead singer!"
"Alas, children, it's me!" Taeyeon pointed to herself, "I'm the leader." ”
"Actually, I can sing very well." Tiffany said weakly from behind Taeyeon.
Xu Xian squinted at his sisters, feeling a little proud in his heart. The little guy took out Li Min's scores from his schoolbag, pointed to the first one and said, "This is it, are you my happiness, my solo song." ”
Taeyeon picked up the score, looked at the lyrics, sang softly a few times, and immediately liked it. "This should be my song!"
"It's mine, it's the right song for me!" In fact, Sunny can basically sing any song that Taeyeon can sing, and although the vocal range may not be as wide as Taeyeon, the song itself can't use a high pitch.
"I can also sing good ......"
"What are you robbing, there are so many here!" While the girls were scrambling, Jessica had already set her sights on the remaining pile of sheet music, and there were at least twenty of them left.
""Fireworks", "Lover", "The Beginning", "One-man Show", "Happy Me", ......, why are there so many, they are all lyrical songs. Wow, Dafabet! I can release an album! "Jessica looked at this one, looked at that one, and just felt that each one was good, and she was reluctant to give up any of them.
"I can sing so well......"
Xu Xian looked at his sisters, it seemed that he couldn't get any help, the little guy sighed, picked up his score, and went back to the house to practice disappointed.
……
Li Min is an ambitious person, but his ambition is hidden deeply, and he is often forgotten in the corner because of many unimportant things. But if he is idle and thinks about it, this ambition will drive him to do a lot of things.
Something that seems a little crazy and can't be successful.
Li Min's head is very strange, he can do it completely with two minds, such as painting, he can take his mind out when he is painting, and watch himself draw there like an out-of-body soul. Not affected at all. When he painted Yuna on the wall, he was in this state as well. He was also thinking about a lot of things, such as what he should do in the future.
He's decided to set up an entertainment company, but what does this entertainment company do? Is it just to be in charge of his business, or to make two movies? From the point of view of profit maximization, this undoubtedly makes the way of operation fail. If you train singers like S.M, YG, it is not completely impossible to succeed, but this cycle will be very long and the investment will be large, and Li Min is not sure if his interest will last until that time.
So, he needs to think of a way to make a profit quickly and make his entertainment company famous. One possibility after another kept passing through Li Min's mind, and he kept being denied, and finally when Li Min drew Yun'er's high heels, he thought of an idea.
A few days ago, when I was in Europe, Li Min turned on the TV boredly and watched the American Got Talent show for a few minutes. Although he didn't like the show much, he was quite satisfied with the format. If you can get a show like this in South Korea and it works successfully, it will definitely be popular.
Koreans, there is generally an American plot, if a thing is popular in the United States, then it is easy to become popular in South Korea. And with the American background, it will be easier to go back to South Korea and talk. This is the purpose of Li Min's visit to the United States this time, what he needs is a team to run this model, and a gimmick.
Thanks to Mr. Bickerberg of DA, things went well. Although Bickerberg believes that Li Min should use his mind more in capital operation, he will not persuade Li Min to change, in his eyes, Li Min is still very young, and there is nothing wrong with doing more things he likes when he is young. In the United States, the power of DA is not something that can be described in words, and it just so happens that the production company of America's Got Talent is one of the targets of DA's direct investment. Things were easily done, and in just three days, a team of ten people followed Lee Min back to South Korea.
This is a team of technicians and executive directors, and Li Min did not buy the rights to the talent show, but only brought back a boo that "America's Got Talent" provided technical support. In these three days, DreamKorea was established in a flash, and Min Ho, who was picking up girls in China, was arrested by him and became the president, and on the day he returned to South Korea, the news was released.
"The mysterious company DK is supported by the American Got Talent team and wants to create a Korean Got Talent? Under the operation of Cui Bing, the headlines of major newspapers published this news in much the same way, and for a while, the topic of "Korea's Got Talent" was hyped, and the topic of which TV station would host it entered the topic of speculation by netizens, and at this time, the three major TV stations had not yet received any news.
For the Korean entertainment industry, the biggest achievement seems to be to enter the United States, and there is no Korean artist who does not want to enter the United States, and sometimes his ambitions for the American market cannot be explained rationally. For example, WG, which was popular in South Korea in 08, entered the United States when it was in the middle of the day, and gave up the Korean market, but the United States made a mediocre debut, and the Korean market plummeted. Even so, JYP declared in an interview that he has no regrets, because it is a dream at stake.
It can be said that every Korean artist has an American dream, and what Lee Min is doing now is to bring back an American dream.
(The power went out in the morning until 9 o'clock, and this chapter was rushed, keke.) )
