82. Declined
"Brother, Xie Lu, thank you for being so optimistic about me." After a slight hesitation, Lee Jun Hyuk spoke.
"But, do you know that Brother He never mentioned this matter to me for the sake of Lu?" Playing with the teacup in his hand, Lee Jun Hyuk asked.
"I really haven't thought about that." Hearing Lee Jun-hyuk's words, Kim Jong Kook was slightly stunned.
"Although you and I are very close to each other, and we have been working together very well these days, but to be honest, brother, because we have known each other for a short time, you may not know me very well. Well, how to say it, I'm the kind of person that no one can manage, only I take the initiative to do anything, and no one can arrange my life, so I'm not destined to sign a company like other singers, this point, in fact, Brother He, he knows the truth, so even though I've been working in his studio for half a year, he has never mentioned this matter to me. Since Kim Jong Kook brought up this matter, even if it was a few days late, it would be the same answer, so Lee Jun Hyuk decided to directly state his reasons.
This can be regarded as the sequelae of Lee Junhyuk after retiring from the army, although he understood the orders from above very well when he was in the army, and he obediently carried them out without saying anything, but in fact, this kind of thing will make people unhappy to put on anyone, so after SAS officially retired, he refused the invitation of other departments of the military, and came to Seoul alone, and opened this small coffee shop here, in fact, there is also a reason for this, he doesn't want to be managed by others.
In fact, Lee Jun-hyuk's character can be easily seen after getting along for a long time. Look at his study habits, and then look at his various appearances at work, everywhere reflects his independent and unconstrained character.
"In this way, no wonder he was so cheerful when I told Brother He's about this, and he wished me success at the end. He put it in the air. Hearing Lee Jun-hyuk's words, Kim Jong Kook suddenly realized.
"Brother, have you told Brother He about this?" Hearing Kim Jong Kook's words, Lee Jun Hyuk asked in surprise.
"Actually, here's how it ......"
On the second day after the recording of the song, Kim Jong Kook went to Fang Si Hyuk to get the master tape, because there was nothing to do, when he got the master tape, Kim Jong Kook and Fang Shi Hyuk chatted for a while, chatted and chatted, and talked about Lee Jun Hyuk.
"Brother He, with Jun He's joining in your company, you're really going to make a big deal in the future." Kim Jong Kook said with a sigh.
"Junhyuk? He is not from my company, he is a student of Seoul National University who was introduced to me by my seniors, and he is still in school. Hearing Kim Jong Kook's words, Fang Si Hyuk shook his head with a smile.
"Huh? Jun Hyuk didn't sign it for you? Then a promising child. Although Lee Jun-hyuk is 20 years old, in the eyes of Fang Si-hyuk and Kim Jong-kook, it is barely possible to make up for it as a child.
"What, you're tempted? That's right, now 'JK' is your bare-bones commander, and you urgently need to sign other artists, and a talented and powerful young man like Jun Hyuk is indeed quite attractive to you. Hear Kim Jong Kook's tone. Fang Shihe naturally analyzed.
"Yes, after working with Junhyuk for a few days, I found out that the kid doesn't look like a musical genius though. But it's amazing how much progress you make almost one day at a time, as long as you teach him some skills and experience the day before, he'll be able to master it the next day. It's amazing. ”
"Since you're tempted, you can ask him, you don't have to scruple about me, you also know that although my name here is my agency, it is actually a subsidiary of JYP, most of my artists here are JYP, and the rest are artists from other small companies, and they don't have the conditions to train stars by themselves. Although Jun Hyuk is very talented, if you sign in with me, it will be dusty, so, I wish you success! Fang Shihe said with a very "cheerful" smile.
"Now that I think about it, that smile of Brother He's is really a little meaningful." After explaining the ins and outs to Lee Jun-hyuk, Kim Jong-kook smiled wryly.
"Brother He's that kind of person, although he has a cheerful personality, but many times he is like a child, if it weren't for his sister-in-law who is usually in charge of him, maybe there will be some trouble." After hearing Kim Jong Kook's words, Lee Jun Hyuk defended Fang Si Hyuk with a smile.
"That brother, I used to be like that, I'm used to it, but this thing is really a little abrupt, if it brings you any burden, it's really embarrassing." Kim Jong Kook waved his hand, indicating that he didn't care.
"Brother, don't say that, it's my honor that you look at me, but in fact, I'm the one who should not go." Hearing Kim Jong Kook's apology, where could Lee Jun Hyuk accept it, and quickly began to apologize.
"Okay, let's not let the two of us go like this, this thing will be over as if it never happened."
"Okay, it's all over."
"But Junhyuk, what are you going to do if you don't sign a contract with an agency? I know you grew up in the UK, but it's not the same here as the UK, and it's hard to get out of the way without a company. Kim Jong Kook asked with concern.
"Thank you for your concern. But, brother, you seem to have overlooked a problem. Hearing Kim Jong Kook's words, Lee Jun Hyuk said with a smile.
"What's the problem?"
"I study music and learn to sing, it doesn't mean that I have to do this business in the future, I don't know what the future will be, but for now, it's just one of mine, well, it's a hobby, I want to learn it well, learn well, but this doesn't mean that I will identify this line of work in the future." Lee Jun-hyuk said it very calmly, because that's what he thought in his heart.
Hearing Lee Jun-hyuk's words, Kim Jong-kook stared at Lee Jun-hyuk tightly for a while, and found that he was not talking hard or something, but really thinking like this, before he said: "No wonder Brother He is always worried that you won't do this if you are hit, I have always felt that he is a little too sensitive, it turns out that he knows your psychological state." ”
"Actually, before I went to him, my teacher at Seoul National University told him about it, so I was a little special with him, didn't you notice, in the Rubik's Cube, the work of the old man is still what Brother Kyu Hyun has been doing, but in fact, I am the real old man."
"Well, I'm starting to be a little curious now, since your future plans are not to specialize in music, what are you going to do, and what will you rely on to support yourself in the future?"
"Brother, you forgot, I'm a student at Seoul National University, in South Korea, what will no one want students who graduate from this school to do? Also, you're eating food from my coffee shop. As long as I save a little, the profit generated by this store will be enough for my expenses. In fact, Lee Jun-hyuk is modest.
First of all, he is actually a student at Columbia University, and although he is now nominally an exchange student at Seoul National University, in fact, he is still studying everything about economics with his mentor at Columbia. And the student who exchanged with him to Columbia University was the son of Jung Yunchan, the president of Seoul National University.
Although Seoul National University can also be ranked among the top universities in the world, it is undoubtedly much worse than Columbia University, so the so-called exchange student system between Columbia University and Seoul National University does not exist every year, and Seoul National University is okay to say, because everyone wants this kind of opportunity, but this is not the case at Columbia, and almost no one who can go to Columbia University will want to exchange to Seoul National University. So in the past 10 years, although the relationship between the two schools has been very good, and there has always been a system of exchange students, but because no one on the Columbia side wants to go to Seoul, it has been shelved.
After Lee Jun-hyuk and Columbia University applied for this exchange student system, Columbia University did not say anything, but Seoul University was very excited, and it was for this reason that Seoul gave Lee Jun-hyuk special treatment, allowing him to enjoy the so-called distance teaching system and never have to go to class.
