Chapter 393: Understanding Each Other [Asking for a Subscription, Asking for a Monthly Pass]
PS: Xiexie's full refund of four consecutive tips!
Speaking of which, this is the first time that Cui Zhengyuan has been so close to Li Xiuman since he got involved in the entertainment industry.
Usually, no matter how much filth there is, it comes quietly behind the scenes. As a result, sitting in front of him, Rao was witty and intelligent, and he couldn't find any topic. And it seems that Li Xiu is busy too.
What are they? A familiar awkward enemy? Cui Zhengyuan really can't find a definition of haode.
In addition to the two of them, the passengers in the entire cabin probed their brains from time to time to see how the two giants of Korean entertainment got along. If it weren't for the fact that the plane had already taken off and the use of electronic devices such as mobile phones was banned, they might have filmed the two sitting side by side.
When the time comes, it will be released on the Internet, and it will definitely attract a large audience.
Since he couldn't find a topic, and the journey was long, Cui Zhengyuan simply closed his eyes and rested.
Not to mention, the atmosphere is quiet, and it is finally not so awkward.
It was quite an unpleasant journey to meet such a depressing companion.
It takes eleven hours to get from South Korea to Los Angeles in the United States.
Cui Zhengyuan's biological clock is normal and not disordered at all. In addition, I have been dealing with company affairs recently, and there are no performing arts activities, so my work and rest are very regular. After a short nap, I couldn't sleep anymore.
When I opened my eyes, there was not even the slightest sign of confusion. But I couldn't find anything to do, and when I turned around, Park Jung-jae slept unusually sweetly.
Boredom, Choi Jung-won looked to the other side and found that a few hours had passed, and Li Xiuman had woken up and was reading the newspaper.
Looking down at it, I found that the news that Li Xiuman was browsing was the recent uproar about the opening of foreign artists' performances provoked by Choi Jung-won.
This is an editorial, an opinion made by a well-known critic. Cui Zhengyuan wanted to see what the outside world thought about this matter.
Although he has been leading the matter. However, the opinions of many critics will indirectly reflect the opinions of the people, and he has to pay attention to them.
Hearing the movement of Cui Zhengyuan's body, Li Xiuman knew that he had woken up.
His eyes did not take his eyes off the newspaper, and the tone of his mouth was equally calm, but it was also pointing out Choi Jung-won's recklessness. "You're in too much of a hurry for this, you should wait two years. By that time, K-pop's influence abroad will be big enough, and there may be a possibility of success. ”
What is this for? Want to talk to yourself? Cui Zhengyuan was stunned for a moment, thought about it for a while, and thought of it not very sure.
It seems that the journey is a bit boring. Li Xiuman wants to find something to do for himself.
In all fairness, without the identity of the competitor, the person in front of him is definitely a good business operator. In the face of poverty, S.M has developed into the most well-known entertainment company in Korea.
Even though it has the strong support of the political party, it is inseparable from his skill, ability, and talent.
It is also a good choice to discuss the affairs of the entertainment industry with such a person. After all, the identities of the two are similar, even if they act in different styles and belong to different camps, they still have a lot in common in terms of business management.
Thinking of this, Cui Zhengyuan replied seriously. "There's no way around it. The enterprise is developing too fast and has been constrained. In order for the company to continue to grow, breaking the reins is a must. ”
This sentence was made by Cui Zhengyuan, not deliberately showing off. Because of this. It made Li Xiuman's heart even more uncomfortable.
S.M has been around for seven years. Although it seems to be beautiful on the surface, only he knows what the actual situation is.
HOT and SES, which were launched after the company's packaging, have achieved good success. Even Myth and Flytothesky have gained a foothold in the entertainment industry. To outsiders, S.M is definitely a success.
But there are too many fetters on this company, and the shili involved is also very complicated.
Li Xiuman is always alone when he summarizes. It's a little melancholy. If this hard work can be said by him, it is estimated that it will definitely not be just what it is now.
Even though A.P has a huge amount of capital, its experience in this industry is completely incomparable. At the very least, it should be reasonable for S.M and A.P to sit on an equal footing.
It's just that he just thinks about it, because he knows his own affairs. Without the support of those shili, S.M may still exist in the concept now.
There are advantages and disadvantages in the world, and how can it be as good as it should be.
But this can't stop Li Xiuman from envying Cui Zhengyuan, and he is even more covetous of A.P's capital.
You must know that this little kid in front of you is an absolute authority in A.P Company. Not to mention that it is backed by a consortium and has huge financial support. If you want to do something, you don't have to worry about making the trip.
Like myself, I was trapped in various helpless conditions and had to make compromises from time to time.
After listening to Cui Zhengyuan's words, Li Xiuman admitted that he was jealous for a while.
In the process of development and growth of entertainment companies, it can be said that they have to go through that stage.
It's just that I've been in the industry for seven years, and I haven't touched the threshold yet. And A.P Company has only been around for two years, and it already needs to break the wall and rush out.
This kind of gap is really frustrating and sad at the same time.
But in the shijie of capital, everything is very simple. Whoever has the strength is the king, incomparable reality.
"But your methods are still too drastic, if you can calm down and plot slowly, maybe there is still a possibility of success. As you are now, you have set off a storm and you have been forced to leave the country, and the matter will soon disappear, and those who oppose it will take the opportunity to knock it back to its original shape. Li Xiuman summed up as a person who came over.
It is very strange that Cui Zhengyuan is not disgusted by his finger-pointing methods. You must know that he is the most intolerant of others challenging his authority, and in this regard he is more sensitive and tough than Li Xiuman, who is known as the "tyrant".
Maybe Lee so-man's identity is really unusual, after all, he was the leader who led the Korean Wave to glory in his previous life. Another one is that he also has something to say, and he doesn't do it purely to laugh at him, which makes Cui Zhengyuan not so disgusted.
At this moment, the two finally found a common topic and were able to talk quietly.
Cui Zhengyuan stretched his arms and shook his sedentary body before saying, "The new group will debut early next year, and there is not much time left for me." Originally, I was thinking that things would be resolved as soon as possible, so that it would not affect Jihua in the back. ”
Seoul is so big, everyone actually knows each other. A.P Company is already preparing for the new talent group, and Li Xiuman must know about it. Cui Zhengyuan also has no need to hide it, what to say.
S.M has done it many times to launch newcomers, and Li Xiuman naturally knows the complexities.
From project establishment to selection, to finalization, to the establishment of the style to the specific activities, and then the publicity steps, etc., it is a very cumbersome system engineering. Without nearly a year, it is impossible to do the basic preparations.
Outsiders only see the momentum of the newcomer's debut, and they will not know how much effort the brokerage company has put in behind it.
It's already August, and according to what Choi Jung-won said, if the newcomer debuts early next year, the preparations must definitely begin. If you're stuck in this place because of the members, then there's no point in doing anything else.
"What are you going to do if Congress doesn't change the law this time?" Li Xiuman asked.
In the new group of A.P company, there is a Chinese, he has known for a long time. Not only that, but in the preparation process of the new men's five-member group of S.M, there is also a Chinese jihua.
It's just that the preparation process of S.M is much slower than that of A.P. At the same time, Li Xiuman also had a wait-and-see mind, planning to see if A.P's public relations could succeed.
If Feng Xiaoyun can make a smooth debut, it is logical for S.M Company to launch its own Chinese newcomers. If it doesn't work, S.M can turn around in time and change jihua.
What else can be done, it is impossible to give up the debut of the entire group for Feng Xiaoyun alone. In that case, the loss would be too great.
Although it is cruel to destroy a young man's dreams in this way, the reality is that way. As a person at the helm, you can't give up the overall concept for the sake of one's interests and losses.
Besides, if Feng Xiaoyun is alone, others can't make their debut. No matter how good their personal relationship is, they will fall out because of this time.
No matter which aspect is considered, Cui Zhengyuan must also give up the small situation and take care of everyone. "The new group's jihua can't be changed, and it's already done so much, there's no reason to give up halfway."
Looking at the calm and natural Cui Zhengyuan, Li Xiuman found that they really had a lot in common. At the very least, they are cold-blooded enough not to let their personal feelings dictate their affairs.
If there is no division of factions and competition, maybe they can really become good confidants.
Similarly, after this close contact, Cui Zhengyuan also found that Li Xiuman was not as unkind as rumored in the outside world.
Maybe because of the reason of being in charge of the enterprise, there will be some ruthless methods, but the human temperament is still quite real.
If the two people are compared, Cui Zhengyuan is a hypocrite, while Li Xiuman is more like a real villain.
Such a person completely shows the bad side of his haode. So it was possible to forcibly disband HOT in the face of the scolding of the whole country. can also carry huge doubts and push BOA to debut in Japan.
No matter what you say, you can't change his will. In this respect, it is actually very similar to Cui Zhengyuan.
Everyone who can achieve great things is actually a colorful individual. In them, the advantages and disadvantages are equally prominent.
On the contrary, if a person is average in all aspects, then it can only mean that he is a very ordinary existence. (To be continued......)
