Chapter 390: Building Momentum

PS: xiexie's ruthless feather tip!

At this point, it is not up to Choi Jung-won or A.P to decide independently.

Many of the conditions put forward by the Chinese side are not agreed to by the company. So after going back, Cui Zhengyuan handed over the situation to the group headquarters.

The matter was serious, and Pan Jingzhen did not dare to make a rash decision, so he convened a joint meeting of all the supervisor-level leaders of C.J Group and Cui Zhengyuan, Han Chenghao and other cadres to discuss the course of action.

At the beginning of the meeting, Bai Hezhong, the vice president in charge of entertainment, gave Cui Zhengyuan a slap in the face. "Executive Cui, I really don't know if there is a need for such fanfare for a trainee?"

Bai Hezhong has a lot of influence within the C.J Group, and all entertainment affairs are under his control, including A.P Company.

At the same time, he is also the president of an electronic product company, and his financial resources and connections have a place in the upper class. Such a person has a negative attitude towards this matter, which makes Cui Zhengyuan's heart tighten.

He didn't rush to answer, but paid attention to the expressions of the others. He found that most of the more than a dozen C.J Group executives present had serious expressions.

Either write and draw on paper, or keep your head down and don't know what you're thinking.

Obviously, considering Cui Zhengyuan's identity, although they also felt that this matter was a bit of a fuss, they had no intention of expressing their opinions, but came to silence.

"Actually, this trainee is just an introduction. Starting with him, there will be a package of jihua on our side of A.P. after that. If it is stuck now, it will affect the business strategy for the next three to five years. "No matter what you think in your heart, you still have to go through the procedure.

Pan Jingzhen naturally noticed the reluctance of others, but no matter what, she, as a mother, must support her son. Not to mention blood relationship, it's just the jihua made by Cui Zhengyuan. There is also some truth to this.

"Let's discuss how to solve the conditions put forward by the Chinese side." Pan Jingzhen imposed the purpose of the meeting, so that Cui Zhengyuan would not be exhausted in dealing with lingering interrogation.

Cui Wulong, the chairman, is in semi-retirement, so it is easy not to ask about the management of the group. Therefore, Pan Jingzhen, the president, is the only leader in the C.J Group.

Her decisions and majesty, no one can challenge.

Therefore, after listening to her words, everyone, whether they were willing or unwilling, changed their attitudes and began to discuss.

"As far as I know. A.P is still heavily indebted, so we can't agree to help build China's education industry. Otherwise, if you have a large amount of money to spend, I am afraid that you will have to live in need in the future. A director said.

On this issue, before coming, Choi Jung-won, Kim Young-min, Han Sung-ho and others had reached a consensus. So without waiting for him to speak, Han Chenghao began to explain. "This can be done, according to our estimates. In fact, the real investment is not very large. The Chinese side thinks more about our influence than about money. In addition, this is a good opportunity to build a corporate image in China, which will be very helpful for the company to increase the favorability of the Chinese people in the future. ”

Following his words, Cui Zhengyuan also said: "We don't just have to do it. It is also necessary to do a good job, and it is best for the group to take the lead. In addition to our A.P company, there will also be many opportunities for cooperation with China in other projects in the group. Lay the foundation now, and you can do more with less in the future. ”

Choi Jung-won and Han Sung-ho were very well prepared. The reasons put forward are also irrefutable.

C.J Group is expanding rapidly and has expanded its business to Shijie after updating its cinema chain system for Korea.

In such a trend. CGV, a company that specializes in cinema line systems under the C.J Group, has set its sights on the Chinese market.

This place where the movie terminal market is just starting is just right, and it is just the right time for CGV companies to make a big difference.

However, as with South Korea's policy on the preservation of local culture, CGV still has a long way to go to qualify.

The method proposed by Cui Zhengyuan may be a good shortcut.

If you want to take it, you must give it first. Naturally, the top management of the C.J Group understands this truth.

Seeing the first one, he successfully gained recognition, and Cui Zhengyuan breathed a sigh of relief.

He was really afraid that these leaders would become more stubborn than the other, insist on their own opinions, and could not accept different opinions. In that case, we don't want to discuss what the outcome of today's meeting is.

made a good start, and the enthusiasm of Cui Zhengyuan and Han Chenghao also came up, and they began to put the latter conditions on the table in turn, and explained the advantages and disadvantages in detail.

They all gave exact reasons for what was acceptable, what was unacceptable, and what was temporarily unacceptable.

Seeing that the work of the branch is so meticulous, the opinions of the senior management have finally loosened. Maybe it's really like what Cui Zhengyuan said, this matter can still be tried.

Three days later, Cui Zhengyuan officially negotiated with Liang Baiqi with the opinions of C.J Group zuihou.

In fact, we all know what C.J Group can accept in those terms.

At that time, Liang Baiqi proposed so many items, but they were just asking for a sky-high price, waiting for Cui Zhengyuan to repay the money on the spot.

There is no difference between political things, principles and business.

But apparently Cui Zhengyuan didn't have the patience to bargain with him, but directly took one step and cut down all the branches and vines, presenting the most core part.

It's like when we go to a stall to buy something, when we bargain, we talk and throw out a sentence: It's so much money, if you don't sell it, I'll leave. Then the stall owner will definitely say: Forget it, it depends on your sincerity to buy it, sell you.

It is rare for Cui Zhengyuan to get the head, and the Chinese side is completely taking advantage, so naturally it can't go too far. Otherwise, the return and the effort are disproportionate, and Cui Zhengyuan will definitely not do it.

On August 17, 2002, a news item in the JoongAng Ilbo caught the attention of ordinary people.

It was a survey report on the influence and development of K-pop outside of South Korea.

South Korea is a small country, and there are no brilliant achievements in history, so there are not many things worth saying internationally. But in the past two years, with the government's support for the entertainment and cultural industry, Korean dramas and idol groups have begun to go abroad. It has had a certain influence in the Asian region.

Especially in the past two years, the birth of A.P Company and the birth of Cui Zhengyuan have made this influence even higher.

More and more Koreans are beginning to regard Hallyu as something to be proud of and show off. More and more young people are also attracted and poured in, providing a steady stream of backup liliang for the Hallyu cause.

has a certain social foundation, so this investigation report has also caused a lot of public opinion.

JoongAng Ilbo is one of the three largest newspapers in South Korea, and its influence reaches every corner of the country. And the authoritative aspect is convincing, and there is no doubt about the data published in the newspaper.

Because of this, the results of the investigation came out. It makes people who care about K-pop worried.

In China, Japan, Australia, the United States, France and other places, 1,000 people were randomly selected as the subject of the survey, and the conclusions reached disappointed the already self-righteous South Korean people.

More than half of those surveyed were completely ignorant of K-pop. Thirty percent of people know Lance because he debuted in the United States and can't be exactly a K-pop musician.

The remaining 11 percent know K-pop but don't like it, and 4 percent are proficient at calling out representatives of the Korean Wave such as Lee Dong-kun, Kwon Sang-woo, Bae Yong-joon, Song Hye Kyo, Jun Ji-hyun, and HOT and have favorite idols.

The remaining five percent of Zuihou, not to mention Hallyu, doesn't even have the impression of Korea.

The survey report was launched. It immediately had a drastic impact on the Korean population.

Originally, the popularity of Korean dramas and idol groups in the past two years made the people think that these things they were proud of could have a far-reaching influence in the world.

In any case, everything is just an illusion.

In particular, the reason for reporting a key line has attracted people's attention.

Among the respondents. A lot of people know about K-pop but don't like it.

Among the reasons for disliking, language and cultural differences are the biggest factors that cause incomprehension. But another important reason, which is the reason for the heated discussion among the public, is the lockdown policy of the South Korean side in the field of pop culture. Let the international community not be favored.

Zuihou in this report also attached a survey to collect the opinions of the South Korean people on the matter.

The Korean Wave that I am proud of. Received a cold reception in a foreign country.

The huge contrast has made the Korean people actively participate, and gradually a wave of discussion has formed.

The wind blowing in the "Central Daily" has naturally been noticed by all sectors of society. In addition, Hallyu has only been identified as a pillar industry by the government for a few years, and it is still in the stage of vigorous development.

How to make the Korean Wave, which has not yet formed a scale, more healthy, is the top priority at present.

All of a sudden, social commentators, members of Congress, and representatives of celebrities set up columns in various media to express their opinions on the matter.

The two opinions, which had been in dispute from the beginning, were in full swing and gradually replaced the opinions of other parties and became the mainstream of confrontation.

The upsurge of discussion among the whole people has also attracted the attention of international friends.

Liang Baiqi, cultural counselor of the Chinese Embassy in South Korea, said in an interview that the Chinese side is not very keen on introducing Hallyu. Because of South Korea's unilateral cultural protection policy, the exchanges between the two sides are not reciprocal.

Korean film and television works and singers can perform in China at will, but on the contrary, there are many restrictions on Chinese film and television works and singers' performing arts activities.

This is not the behavior of an open, civilized country.

Japan's envoy to South Korea, Katsuyuki Matake, also revealed that the Japanese government is considering restricting the development of Hallyu in the region. Because of the non-opening attitude of the Korean entertainment market, it has aroused the vigilance of people of insight in Japan.

At this stage, China, Japan and Southeast Asia are the main markets for Hallyu. So the attitude of Chinese and Japanese officials has caused an uproar in South Korea. Coupled with the previous report of the "Central Daily", the two sides rose to each other's momentum, pushing public opinion to the highest point.

Is the current closed entertainment market necessary or hindering the development of Hallyu? It has become an issue of concern to most people and people in the political, entertainment and economic circles. (To be continued......)
