Chapter 586: Advertising Single
"Shengyuan, did you come here because you saw that it was going to be noon?" Yang Hyun Suk asked with a smile after seeing Kim Sung-won.
"There's something I want to discuss with my brother." Jin Shengyuan pinched his chin and said. Yang Xianshuo is a very kind person, he is also very good to the company's artists, and he likes others to call him "brother" directly. If it was usual, Kim Sung-won naturally didn't mind joking with him, but today, he was a little weak-hearted, so he didn't pick up Yang Hyun-suk's jokes.
"Oh?" Yang Hyun Suk's eyes narrowed slightly. From Jin Shengyuan's reaction, he vaguely guessed something, and he was slightly vigilant in his heart.
Jin Shengyuan is a character who rarely asks for others, not that he likes to hold on to everything, but he can grasp his own heart very well, and rarely tries too much beyond his ability.
"Is there anything I need help with? Shengyuan. Yang Hyun Suk took Kim Sung-won to his office, prepared a cup of coffee for him, and asked.
"That's the case, brother, there is an older trainee named Liu Renna in your company's actor department, right?" Jin Shengyuan didn't beat around the bush, and asked directly. He did not mention that Yoo In-na took the initiative to seek an interview with Choi Hyun-joon.
"Huh?" Yang Xianshuo, who had just leaned back slightly, immediately sat up straight, stared at Jin Shengyuan with blazing eyes, and asked, "You don't want to dig into my corner, do you?" At the same time, he struggled to recall information about Liu Renna in his head. For Jin Shengyuan's vision, almost no one in the entertainment industry can ignore it now.
However, in his impression, although Liu Renna works hard and has a good image, the key is that it is not too obvious, especially because she is a little older, and her development prospects should not be very big. Jin Shengyuan Weishenme just fell in love with her?
"How can it be considered a corner?" Jin Shengyuan said with a smile unashamedly, "Aren't there often exchange trainees between brokerage companies?" Although I don't have a trainee exchange, please brother transfer a trainee to me, it shouldn't be considered a corner, right? ”
"Isn't that a corner?" Yang Hyun-seok looked speechless at Kim Sung-won's "cheekiness".
"Of course not!" Jin Shengyuan nodded solemnly and said. In front of a big senior like Yang Hyun-suk. It's okay to be foolish.
Yang Xianshuo twitched the root of his teeth, no longer dwelling on this question, but asked, "You just took away my trainees?" ”
"I'll remember my brother's favor." Kim Sung-won said with a smile, from Yang Hyun-suk's words and reactions. He had already seen that Yang Hyun Suk was not too opposed to this matter.
"Good!" Yang Xianshuo immediately nodded simply, he had already carefully thought about the information about Liu Renna, this transaction was not a loss.
"Brother Xiexie." Jin Shengyuan bowed slightly and thanked him.
"Don't be so polite." Yang Hyun Suk is smiling most of the time, and his unique voice is very joyful, so it gives people a very kind feeling.
"I haven't congratulated my brother yet!" After sitting down again. Jin Shengyuan suddenly said enviously, "Zhilong, they are completely big now!" ”
At the beginning of this year, BIGBANG didn't release a new album, but it was just as popular. The new book "Shout to Shijie" sold 160,000 copies in the first week, and now it has sold more than 250,000 copies, making it the best-selling book published by an artist to date. In addition, the sales of BIGBANG's second album exceeded 220,000 copies, and there are more than 10 commercials in front of them. It can be said that there are "three major developments" in publishing, albums, and advertising.
Not long ago, Yang Hyun-seok announced that BIGBANG's total revenue in 2008 reached 40 billion won.
"What? Do you still want to poach Zhilong and them? Yang Hyun Suk joked, "The person who just poached me immediately slapped me on the back." Disturbed kindness! ”
"I do." Jin Shengyuan shook his head regretfully and said. …,
"Hehe......" Yang Xianshuo smiled and suddenly asked in a low voice, "Shengyuan, what was your company's revenue last year?" Although they are both presidents, they are also ordinary people of flesh and blood, and they will also have curiosity and comparison, especially the personal relationship between the two is not bad.
"That's about the same as Bigbang's income." Jin Shengyuan said vaguely.
"Sure enough, there are a lot of hiding." Yang Hyun-seok thought in his heart, but he didn't ask for the specific number, of course, he wouldn't believe the number that Kim Sung-won said. Last year, media reporters helped Kim Sung-won earn at least more than 20 billion won. But the number he counted for Jin Shengyuan was more than 40 billion.
Although he doesn't have as many advertisements as BIGBANG, Kim Sung-won far surpasses BIGBANG in terms of album sales, performance fees, creation, and copyright.
With the same envious sigh, Yang Hyun-seok did not continue this topic, but talked with Kim Sung-won about the recent developments in the entertainment industry.
"Brother, how are the preparations for their debut?" Jin Shengyuan asked. Lee Chae-rim, Park Chun, Dara, and Kong Min-ji formed a girl group "21" and are preparing to debut this year.
"Let's take a look." Yang Hyun Suk got up and said to Kim Sung-won as if he was suddenly interested.
YG's building looks a little old. However, Yang Hyun-seok has built a very luxurious new building in Mapo, next to the Han River, and is expected to be able to move in by the end of this year.
Park Chun's practice room is the same practice room that used to be used by BIGBANG, and you can faintly hear the dynamic rhythm inside when you stand outside the door.
Yang Hyunshuo didn't hesitate, pushed open the door of the practice room, and walked in first. In the agency, there are cameras almost everywhere except for bathrooms, toilets, etc., so they are very conscious.
As soon as he entered the practice room......, Kim Sung-won heard this somewhat childish and cute singing voice.
"President, Kim Sung-won OPPA, hello!" Li Cailin and the four of them saw Yang Xianshuo and Jin Shengyuan walking in together, and hurriedly bowed down to greet them.
"You go on." Yang Hyun Suk waved his hand and said to them.
Jin Shengyuan also nodded, and then sat on the chair on the side of the practice room with Yang Xianshuo.
"Brother Xianshuo, what kind of song is this?" After listening to a paragraph, Jin Shengyuan asked a little strangely, there are actually the singing voices of the five of Quan Zhilong in the accompaniment, and it accounts for a large part.
"This is the LG Lollipop commercial song that bigbang and 21 have collaborated on." Yang Hyun-seok explained, "The MV is already being filmed, and it is expected to be released by the end of this month. ”
Jin Shengyuan nodded. didn't ask questions, and watched the performance of Li Cailin and the four while listening to the song.
I haven't seen them for a while, and they have changed a lot. Perhaps because of their upcoming debut, each of them has a little more aura, or the breath of an artist. At the same time, he began to create his own unique style.
Li Cailin has been set as the captain of this group, dressed in a unique style of Hipop, showing a strong sense of presence, not outstanding appearance, but with unparalleled rap strength. At the SBS Song Battle YGFamilyStage at the end of 2007, she performed as the only YG trainee and the only YG female singer to participate, and released her stage name "CL" at the time. It can be said that Yang Hyun Suk expects her the same way he expects Kwon Ji Ryong in BIGBANG.
Needless to say, Pu Chun naturally said. With long shawl hair, neat bangs, and a slightly plump body with strong explosive power, his singing skills are the most haode in the group, and his voice is also very recognizable.
Dara, a top star from the Philippines, has a childlike little face that makes all women jealous. When Jin Shengyuan first saw her, he couldn't believe that she was only a year younger than him. Moreover, such a delicate face. It was hard to believe that she was a singer under YG, and at that time, Yang Hyun-seok also thought that her style was not in line with YG, so she practiced as an actor trainee for a long time. …,
Look at today's DARA. Her long hair was tied into a pigtail at the top of her head, the top of which looked like a blooming flower, and the odd pendants, voluminous sweatshirts, and weird leggings were all perfectly digested. Even the singing and dancing can be perfectly integrated into the team.
The youngest, Kong Minzhi, is a child born in 94, and his facial features are also not outstanding, but Yang Hyun-seok immediately recognized her after seeing her dance. It seems that because her grandmother is a famous dancer, she has a strong dance instinct in her bones, and she can even challenge men's powerfuldance. Singing skills and rap have also been improving. He is the most promising member of the group.
It's a pity that the four of them can be said to be Yang Hyun-suk's "heart and liver babies" like Bigbang, and if Kim Sung-won has the intention of poaching them, I'm afraid that Yang Hyun-seok will immediately break off his friendship.
Looking at the practice of the four of them, Jin Shengyuan couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "It's another dragon crossing the river!" "Some of the girls in this year's women's group battle have watched it. I'm afraid it's far more exciting than the competition between Wondergirls and Girls' Generation in 2007 and the first half of 2008. The style of the four is different from any girl group in the Korean music industry, and from this advertising single, Kim Sung-won has already vaguely been able to yujian their situation after their debut.
......After Li Cailin's four-person performance, Jin Shengyuan warmly clapped his hands and praised: "A song with a lot of feeling." That's great! ”
"xiexie Jin Shengyuan OPPA." Li Cailin and the four of them bowed down happily and thanked them, and just after practicing dancing and singing, the four of them were a little out of breath.
"Sheng Yuan is very optimistic about this song?" Yang Hyun-seok turned his head and asked. He brought Kim Sung-won here to show off to him that there is not only one bigbang in his company, and on the other hand, he also wanted him to comment on this song. In terms of sensitivity to pop music, Kim Sung-won is already recognized as the first person in the entertainment industry.
"Of course!" Kim Sung-won nodded and said, "Their cooperation with BIGBANG is so perfect!" Plus the song itself is in line with the essence of pop, and it will definitely be a success. ”
"It's a pity it's not mine." After finishing speaking, Jin Shengyuan once again regretted in his heart. Creating a unique style and becoming popular is a very rewarding thing for every producer. (Your support is my biggest motivation.) )
