Chapter 242: Gossip
This situation seems to mark the beginning of Kim Sung-won and Taeyeon's entry into the strange circle of artist romance - less gathering and more separation, and many artists who are in love have to break up for this reason.
Due to the itinerary, Kim Sung-won and Taeyeon don't have much time to talk to each other, and they won't even be able to talk for several days, which makes so-young and others, who are used to eavesdropping on their phone calls, start to feel a little anxious.
"The two of them used to talk to each other hundreds of times a day, but recently they have suddenly become so cold, could it be that they are getting bored?" Su-young raised this speculation to Jessica more than once, because in her opinion, only Jessica would dare to ask Kim Sung-won this question openly.
As for Xiaoxian, the innocent and pure eyes made Xiuying reluctant to "pollute" this child.
Every time Jessica wanted to be lazy and sleep for a while in her spare time, she was muttered in Xiuying's ear, and she couldn't help but feel a little upset. For her who is drowsy, it is simply unforgivable to be disturbed from sleeping.
At first, Jessica kindly told Xiuying that there was no problem, but Xiuying was unconsciously at all, thinking that Jessica was perfunctory to her, and even more tirelessly "harassed" her, and sometimes pulled Yuna or Yuli and Sunny together.
"Yikes! Xiuying, come over to me! Jessica finally couldn't take it anymore and took the initiative to call Xiuying over at a much delayed lunch time.
"What? Sika, have you asked Shengyuan oppa? Xiuying ran over and asked. It's not that she didn't ask Taeyeon, but Taeyeon is so "sullen" that she shakes her head and says "no" every time, and then doesn't say anything.
"I'm telling you clearly, Xiuying, the two of them haven't entered the boredom period! In the future, you are not allowed to bother me with this question again, do you hear? Jessica said to her in one breath.
“weishenme? You haven't asked Shengyuan oppa, how do you know that the two of them haven't entered the boredom period? Xiuying seemed to have taken this as an after-dinner pastime, teasing Jessica.
Jessica only felt that her head was about to be blown up by Xiuying, and with the style of growing up in the United States since she was a child, she couldn't help but describe directly: "I ask you!" If you like a cake very, very much, would you be willing to throw it away before you taste it? ”
"Of course not!" Xiuying said immediately, but then her eyes widened and she suddenly said, "That's right! But Sika, you seem to have a lot of experience, huh? Better than me and Sunny, do you have a boyfriend too? ”
"I've had enough scandals, don't talk nonsense about me." Jessica seemed to think of something, puffed out her mouth, and said to Xiuying.
"I'm sorry, Sika, I was just kidding." When Xiuying heard what Jessica said, she immediately restrained her mischievous smile and said to her.
"It's okay, I know you're trying to help me get rid of my bad habit of always letting go," Jessica smiled and said, her nickname was "Iceberg Princess", but her smile was the softest, giving her the feeling of a little woman.
"No, I really want to know the answer to that question." Xiuying shook her head and said.
Jessica was speechless, puffing out her mouth and glaring at Xiuying.
"Hee-hee, lie to you." Xiuying smiled and pinched Jessica's cheek, made a "prodigal" expression and said, "It's really a little beauty that everyone loves, but it's a pity to give Yuli this guy as a wife." ”
"Yikes! Xiuying, don't bully my wife! When Yu Li heard this, she immediately glared and shouted.
"I'll be bullied, what's the ...... of you"
Xiuying and Yoo Li quickly made a mess, but it was Jessica, the center of the incident, who looked at her bun face twice, and then turned her head to eat.
Although so-young and the others are very "gossipy", they never talk about things between Kim Sung-won and Taeyeon when there are outsiders nearby, and Taeyeon just lets them mess around. …,
On January 22, an exciting news came from Japan that made the entire Korean entertainment industry excited: TVXQ's 16th "Purpleline", which was released on January 16, won the first place on the Oricon list in the first week of its release on the 22nd, which also marks that TVXQ's efforts for almost the whole year last year were not in vain, and they finally achieved unprecedented results in Japan.
At the same time, SuperJunior's Asian tour, Supersho, is finally starting to show their power as the number one giant in the Korean entertainment industry.
On January 23, TVXQ released its third full-length album "T" in Japan, ranking second on the Oricon chart on the first day of release, and will be sold in Korea on the 30th.
On January 24, Taeyeon's solo song "If" was released, with lyrics and music composed by Kim Sung-won, as the OST of the TV series "Kuaidao Hong Jitong", which made this song attract the attention of fans as soon as it was released.
Nowadays, the lyrical songs created by Kim Sung-won have basically become a guarantee of quality, since the first creation, his achievements in lyrical songs have not suffered failure, and now he has shown perfect singing skills with full rendering, and the title of "the king of lyrical songs" has been firmly buckled on his head.
This "If", whether it is the lyrics or Taeyeon's singing, did not disappoint the fans, and it was almost unanimously praised.
At this time, Kim Taeyeon, the little ghost captain of her girlhood, really entered the fans' field of vision as an individual.
Only then did the fans discover that this small body actually contained such a strong explosive power and strong emotions, and her perfect singing skills instantly captured countless fans for Taeyeon, and she actually became the most popular member of Girls' Generation, far surpassing the façade Yoona and Tiffany, who gained a lot of popularity with her moon smile.
Moreover, perhaps because of the mystifying cooperation between Kim Sung-won and Taeyeon, or maybe because the song "If" was really performed by Taeyeon perfectly, the influence of this song gradually surpassed the TV series "Quick Knife Hong Jitong" itself.
In the past, people would say that it was an episode of a TV series when evaluating a certain OST, but this time, many viewers actually knew the TV series "Quick Knife Hong Jitong" because of the song "If".
"Quick knife Hong Jitong? Oh, it turned out to be the OST TV series "If". Such comments made directors such as Lee Jung-sub and the two screenwriters of the Hong sisters resentful, which was simply the biggest shame for them.
Although "Quick Knife Hong Jitong" has achieved results in the same "Neini drama", but now it has been reduced to a supporting role in an OST song, which makes them directors and screenwriters ashamed to see people.
The Hong sisters don't know whether to complain that Kim Sung-won's "If" is too powerful, or whether they should be angry that he actually recommended Taeyeon to sing this OST, in short, they, the top people in the entertainment industry, have become a supporting role for a young singer.
Despite this, everyone still underestimated the performance of the song "If", and in the next six months, the results it created actually made Lee Jung-sub and others feel that this supporting role is not wronged at all.
Xiuying and others finally came up with the song "If" from Taeyeon's mouth, which was originally created for her by Kim Sung-won, and in order to make it easier for her to solo, it was handed over to the crew of "Quick Knife Hong Jitong" to do OST.
Xiuying almost went crazy with envy, especially Xiuying, who had to shout at the wall every night: "Ahhh ”
Even Jessica can't help but feel a little jealous of Taeyeon: God can't help but favor this little man too much!
The advent of this song also completely dispelled the unfounded worries of Xiuying and the others, and the relationship between Kim Sung-won and Taeyeon is still as stable as ever.
On January 31, the 17th Seoul Music Awards was held, and BIGBANG was the biggest winner, winning not only the top prize, but also the Digital Music Award and the Top 10 Singer Award. The Newcomer Award was won by Girls' Generation, WonderGirls, and FTISLAND, the three hottest combinations of 2007. Girls' Generation also won the HIGH1 Music Award, which is the role of timely follow-up songs and vigorous publicity. …,
The gap caused by the song "Girls' Generation and E" has been reduced to a minimal, and the throne of the first girl group has begun to be in suspense.
However, compared to the girl group, the boy group is still the general trend, although TVXQ is not there, but the strong rise of BIGBANG has shown that their strength and popularity are far from being comparable to Wondergirls and Girls' Generation.
In particular, their results at the Seoul Music Awards have left SJ behind, and they have the strength to challenge TVXQ.
However, BIGBANG's performance in Japan was not satisfactory, especially compared to TVXQ's prosperity. President Yang Hyun-seok originally wanted to borrow TVXQ's "east wind", but after seeing this, he immediately decided to withdraw them to South Korea to further consolidate their domestic achievements.
YG is still much worse than S.M, they don't have the strength of S.M, the two groups develop Japan, and then leave the two groups to compete for the domestic market.
On February 1st, the "Jeju Island Green Tea" advertisement starring Kim Sung-won, Yoon Eun-hye, Moon Geun-young, Kim Tae-hee, as well as TVXQ, SJ, BIGBANG, and Wondergirls was finally completed.
This advertisement, which has been publicized so vigorously that it has caused a sensation across the country before it has even started, finally appeared on the display screens of major road sections at noon on February 1.
The high-precision computer jishu vividly rendered the performances of the four major groups and the enthusiasm of nearly 50,000 fans at the scene, and the exaggeration was with realistic details, so that almost all the people who passed under the display screen couldn't help but pay a little attention.
The effect of advertising is also immediate, originally after a period of outbreak, the sales of green tea that have gradually stabilized have grown wildly again, driving the entire green tea market in less than half a year, the scale has expanded several times.
In addition, the beverage market in South Korea is showing a trend of expansion, and there is a booming economy.
For a time, the praise of the major media continued, and the "Jeju Island Green Tea Complex" also stepped into the ranks of "upstarts" in an instant.
Park Sang-jung once again mentioned to Kim Sung-won the idea of going all out to develop the beverage industry, and Kim Sung-won no longer hesitated this time and agreed, but he denied Park Sang-jung's proposal to take advantage of the situation to carry out foreign business.
At present, the "Jeju Island Green Tea Complex" has just stepped into the ranks of the upstarts in South Korea, and it is a bit impatient to develop foreign markets now, and it is easy to deal a devastating blow to the company in the event of large-scale economic turmoil.
Moreover, although South Korea's population is not large, the green tea market is not saturated, and there is a trend of continuous expansion, and it is the primary goal of the company to maintain and stabilize the leading position in the green tea beverage industry.
While the benefits of advertising are obvious, the drawbacks are also obvious: they rely heavily on the popularity of the group, and the popularity of Korean groups changes very frequently, especially since the public is unusually strict with their fans, and if a certain scandal occurs among the members of a group, it can be devastating to their popularity.
In addition, this kind of advertisement is like fast food, although the sensation is very big, and the effect is very obvious, but the duration is not long, and the public will get tired of it in half a year at most.
The cost of advertising is very large, so enterprises must do their best to promote within half a year, not only need to recover costs, but also to achieve large-scale profits, the task will undoubtedly be very heavy, and there is no energy to take care of foreign countries.
Kim Sung-won's meticulous and thoughtful consideration easily persuaded Park Sang-jung and made him temporarily let go of his imminent thoughts. Although Jin Shengyuan doesn't pay much attention to the things in the company, he has always been in his hands for the direction of the company.
According to the current market reaction, profitability is no longer an issue, what needs to be considered is how to achieve more profits.
In business, Jin Shengyuan has never had any psychological taboos.
The reason why he doesn't want to reveal his identity is because it is easy for him to collapse the image he has accumulated over the years, although many media describe how hard some rich children in the entertainment industry work hard and how to gain the recognition of the people, in fact, in the hearts of the people, and even in the eyes of most artists, they are just "players", not real artists.
Once you put on this aura, all your efforts will become a matter of course, and the slightest flaw will become a reason for the public to attack you.
In addition, the psychology of Koreans who hate the rich is very serious, even if this company was founded by Kim Sung-won from scratch, but once his identity is exposed, there will immediately be countless people with a magnifying glass to reconnoiter every move of the company, which will undoubtedly cause great hindrance to the development of the enterprise.
