"President Li didn't tell me I could see you here today! William Wang xi. ”

An hour later, in Li Zhi's not too big office in the company, William Wang met Yang Xianshuo, who had come to visit.

It was a completely different feeling from when William Wang met him in Jeju Island before.

It's a businessman's look.

This is very characteristic of YG Realty......

"He didn't know I was in the company either." William Wang shook hands with Yang Hyun-seok with a calm face, "Two years ago, when we talked about the possibility of cooperation between the two companies in Jeju Island, we didn't think we could find any opportunities for cooperation...... I didn't expect it to be at this point! ”

"Wouldn't that be great!" Yang Xianshuo nodded and smiled: "So today's matter is for me to talk to you?" ”

"No, you talk to President Li, if you mind me auditing, then I'll go out ......"

William Wang's impatience was about to erupt.

"Of course not." Yang Xianshuo turned to Li Zhina with a smile, he already sensed that William Wang was in a bad mood today, so he decided not to provoke William Wang. "President Li, the fax from our company ......"

"We've already sent the reply, and that's our company's final statement. If you're going to talk about this today, it's just a trip for nothing. Li Zhi said with a smile on his face.

"We can still talk......

"There's really not much to talk about about this." Li Zhina smiled and shook his head, "I don't know where you heard about it, President Yang, that we helped Bighit with overseas promotion policies...... But I want you to understand that the policy that illiam invested in them was definitely not because we had a good relationship with Fang Shixi, but because that company was our subsidiary. So...... It's really useless to talk about human favors. ”

"But your commission is inevitably too high...... Yang Xianshuo shook his head, "The commission ratio of 30% of the promotion fee is ...... Can it be lowered appropriately? ”

"This is set by the investment company itself, and it is not convenient for us to say more." Li Zhina smiled and shook his head.

"You and the investment company ......"

"We have to manage so much, and we didn't separate the investment company in the first place." Li Zhina refused very resolutely.

Yang Xianshuo glanced at William Wang a little embarrassed.

"I really don't care about the management and operation of the company." William Wang immediately took it out.

He was a little interested.

He wasn't even interested in listening to this kind of thing now.

“…… Your commission ratio, after deducting the fees and commissions of the actual overseas operating companies, we basically can't make any money! Yang Xianshuo shook his head seriously, "This is not a state of wanting to cooperate!" ”

"So I just don't want to cooperate in this area!" Li Zhina shook his head, "To be honest, promoting peninsular artists in Europe and the United States is thankless, the cost is very high, but the income is relatively small, even if it is a 30% commission, the investment company is likely to lose money." ”

“…… What ...... said"

"If you want to give us BigBang to do it, it's okay." Li Zhi said very shamefully.

“……”

Both sides knew it couldn't be.

Artists of BigBang's status no longer need to help promote it.

"So you see, you also know that the ones you want to arrange here are all not profitable, and they don't make much money in the first place, and they can't add a little more commission or something, do you think we are opening a good church?" Li Zhi's words are not very polite.

"Is BTS losing money right now?" William Wang interjected next to him.

"Basically, yes." Li Zhina nodded, "But that's our own subsidiary, and if we lose some money now, we will definitely be able to earn it back in the future." ”

"Hmm." William Wang nodded and was quiet.

The atmosphere was a bit stiff.

"I thought I could pack it up and talk about it with the girl group we're going to launch next." Yang Xianshuo said with something in his words.

"There's nothing to pack, it's your company's girl group, we have all agreed, as long as you return to us the training fees we have paid you for the past two years, Cheng Xiao's contract will be given to you." Li Zhi said with a smile: "This is already a big concession, isn't it?" ”

“……”

"If you really want to bargain with us about this matter, it's a big deal that we can arrange for Cheng Xiao to go to another company to partner with." Li Zhina said with a smile, "Some companies will be willing to invite her, after all, she is now the popular king of Produce101!" ”

"This popular king...... Moisture, right? Yang Hyun-seok said with a smile.

"How's that going! Saying that she is the king of popularity means that it is like your YG's debut new boy group......" Speaking of this, Lee Zhina smiled and spread his hands. "It's very popular, it's a monster newcomer, it's a sweep, that is."

It's almost impossible to talk about that.

"Alright, then let's just let me not come today." Yang Hyun-seok sighed.

"Or else." Li Zhina laughed, "Cheng Xiao's training fee doesn't need to be settled by you to us, this girl group you want to launch...... What's it called...... pinkpunk or what? ”

"It's been renamed Blackpink." Yang Hyun-seok explained.

"Well, just this girl group, give us a quarter of the shares, so that I can talk to the investment company about the commission settlement to help you do European and American promotion." Li Zhina said.

“…… Am I not at a loss? Yang Hyun-seok was speechless.

"But the risk is smaller! In case this girl group doesn't become popular......"

"How is that possible!"

"Then let's be if I don't have this offer!" Li Zhi's hands were spread.

Indeed, his proposal was a bit of a lion's mouth.

It was some time ago that the members of YG's only and leading girl group 2NE1 broke the news that they were carrying controlled drugs to clear customs, and after the media broke the news, the girl group has basically ceased its activities.

Considering the age of the members, 2NE1 has actually been disbanded.

As a result, this girl group that will be launched soon will be YG's only girl group.

What does this mean...... Refer to how 2NE1 became popular back then, and you have a concept.

Born with a golden spoon in his mouth.

It is impossible for such a team not to be popular.

YG would not be able to accept letting them give up a quarter of their ownership.

In this case, Li Zhina also made this request, mainly to remind Yang Xianshuo that cooperation is okay, and everyone should be reasonable and reciprocal, and you can't think we're stupid just because we made a step.

Except for the reminders, of course...... I still have other ideas.

After the negotiation with Li Zhina failed, Yang Xianshuo left a little depressed, and only William Wang and Li Zhina were left in the room in the office.

"You mention this kind of thing that requires a quarter of the ownership, Yang Xianshuo can't accept it at all, right?" William Wang looked at Li Zhina and said.

"You knew it couldn't be?" Li Zhi glanced at William Wang, "Okay, it's over, you can leave if you want to." ”

“…… You're sick, you! William Wang was amused by Li Zhina's send-off, "No, why did you suddenly speak so hard to him!" Let's hear about it! I'm not in a hurry to go home anyway. ”

"Taeyeon isn't at home?"

"Yes, she's not going anywhere except the gym lately......"

"You're getting burnout?"

“…… Tired of your sister! Speak well! William Wang shook his head, and the smile on his face that had just appeared became sneering again, and he also changed the topic: "I said, don't you really force Yang Xianshuo to be anxious in the end, and make Cheng Xiao's debut a problem......

"No, it won't." Li Zhina smiled and shook his head, "You don't want to think about it, in the past few years, have you ever seen such a big scandal as YG broke out like this time about the controlled drugs of the 2NE1 members?" ”

"That's because there is no chance to ......"

"BigBang, who has nothing to do with these things!" Li Zhina interrupted William Wang's words, and shook his head with a smile, "If you play that circle, you have to say that everyone has it, it is wronged, you can pick five out, and there will definitely be those who have slipped through the net." No one had ever paid attention to this before, and all of a sudden......"

“…… I remember you telling me that YG was going to be targeted recently......"

"That's right!" Li Zhina smiled and sighed, "Otherwise, why do you think he came to us as if he was going to hide from a disaster!" ”

"So you're going to fall into the ground?"

"It's not about falling into the well, it's about pulling them." Li Zhi said with a smile: "Yang Xianshuo is obviously aware of the seriousness of the problem now, their previous operating logic of not alliing with no one has faced a huge challenge, he chose to ask us for help, then we must also let them show some sincerity, otherwise why should we help them stand on the platform!" ”

"Do you know who's going to clean them up?" William Wang thought about it, but still felt a little unacceptable, "Their backstage is the S Group!" ”

"That's right! So you see, their negative news has disappeared very quickly in the peninsula, but it is ...... overseas. It's been circulating. Li Zhina nodded, "The influence of some capital may not be great in China, but it is ...... overseas."

“…… No wonder they came to us to help expand their overseas channels. William finally understood the crux of the matter.

"Yes, they feel that we don't have to take care of it at home, and overseas wants to use our influence, but they don't want to bleed, so ......" Li Zhi spread his hands, "That's what I said, we don't open a good church." ”

"yes, yes." William Wang nodded, "That question is Cheng Xiao......"

"Don't worry too much, Yang Xianshuo will agree to my proposal." Li Zhina said with a smile.

“…… Are you sure? ”

"Of course it's sure!" Lee Zhina nodded, "If they don't make some preparations, if something like this 2NE1 happens to them in bigbang......"

"YG's foothold is gone." William Wang understood.

"yes!" Lee Zhina said with a smile: "If you want to make money in the entertainment industry, you have to go overseas, and DSP has been like this since the beginning, YG has relied on bigbang's huge overseas influence to get to where it is today, it is too simple, and they are not used to letting many people make money with them, they like to eat alone, and at this point, they have always been criticized and ugly." Before, no one just wanted to cut them down, just because they felt that they were backed by the S Group, and it was difficult to clean them up, but this time I don't know who came up with such a way to disgust YG, even with the help of the S Group, they suppressed the negative news in the peninsula, but overseas...... They really can't get enough of it. ”

Speaking of this, he shook his head with a smile.

"Then you can do it!" William Wang shook his head, "Just don't do it too much." We are not short of money ...... either."

"It's not about the money." Li Zhina also shook his head, "This is also related to LOONA, otherwise why do you think I made this request!" ”

“…… WHAT DOES THIS HAVE TO DO WITH LOONA? ”

"LOONA has been active overseas since its return on the peninsula earlier this year." Li Zhina said with a smile: "Although they have gained a lot of recognition outside because of their focused activities overseas, they are still worse than Irene because of their congenital deficiencies compared to Dreamcatcher, and recently the new generation of girl groups in the peninsula have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, and I don't think I can stop them if I only put one Tice here." ”

"So?"

"We've seen the girl group too." At this point, Li Zhina suddenly had a little bit of the guiding posture of the president of the largest entertainment company on the peninsula: "The level is good, but because Li Xiuman has too many ideas, he has touched some strange sensitive lines......"

"What sensitive line?"

"The song they released in the last few days is called "Seven Days and Seven Nights", and the spearhead is directly aimed at the anniversary of the shipwreck......"

“…… Is Lee so-man crazy? William Wang had a black line on his head.

"It's not even the first time he's touched this...... The title song of F(x)'s last five-member system return, that RedLight, also alludes to this matter a bit. Li Zhi said in a tone that you don't know enough to complete.

“…… Artists, don't touch the topic of rectification, he doesn't understand! ”

"How he doesn't understand! XO doesn't touch either. Li Zhina shook his head with a smile, "It's just the baton of the girl group, so I'm playing something weird, and I just want to play idol as an artist, but it's a pity ......"

"Hmm......" William Wang nodded.

"So now it seems that the new generation of girl groups ...... Abolished his martial arts. Li Zhina sorted out his emotions and continued, "We also have a number of the rest of the CJEM department through Produce101 this time, basically...... That's it, it's hard to make a big difference. So for us, by sharing the cake of the new generation of girl groups with JYP and YG, LOONA can be able to operate overseas with peace of mind, and don't have to worry about being served to the old nest like onderGirls. ”

"Isn't there a new girl group from a small company? I heard a song from a girl group called GFriend some time ago, and it was not bad......"

"Well, there is! And it's very close to the LOONA style. ”

"IT SEEMS THAT THERE IS ALSO A ...... CALLED MAMAMOO"

"Yo! You care about that! Li Zhina was happy.

"It's not me who cares, it's Taeyeon, she's always worried about being slapped on the beach by these back waves." William Wang smiled and shook his head.

Only soon the smile disappeared again.

Today, whenever he thinks of Kim Taeyeon, he feels a little guilty......

At the bottom of the day, he knew he hadn't done anything wrong.

That's why we need to do a good job of outreach! Form an alliance with YG and JYP's girl groups. Li Zhina said with a serious face, "At least two of the three girl groups with different styles are staying on the peninsula at the same time, and at least one of them is in a state of preparation or return, so as to ensure that it will not let the girl groups of many small companies come out to fish in troubled waters like they did in the heyday of the girl group two years ago...... Everyone can also take turns to develop overseas with peace of mind, after all, relying on the size of the peninsula, it is impossible to support so many idols. ”

"That's it." William Wang let out a long sigh and shook his head. "If you do these things, you will be called a bully for a small company......"

"We don't do boy bands." Li Zhina said with a smile. "You have to think that the market for the women's group is not good, so go to the men's group! I didn't stop me. ”

“…… Okay. William Wang shook his head, "Then you should work hard to be your alliance!" ”

"Once and for all!" Li Zhina smiled and shook his head, "If you can write another song for LOONA or something, it would be better if you could help them make this position a little more solid." ”

"Okay." William Wang thought for a moment and nodded.

“…… You actually agreed? ”

"I'm a little messed up today, and I have something to do, which is good." William Wang waved his hand, "Is the style of the song similar to BoomBoom?" ”

"Probably yes, but just like you wanted us to adjust the direction of the fans before, it's better to walk on the side of the female fans," Li Zhina nodded, "Tice's side doesn't know if it's because Park Jinying thinks that this girl group is not his own or what, with a mentality of making quick money, and the people on the YMC side are also a little helpless, so that side is now in a state of wanting to eat male fans to death, just let go of the way on our side, there is no need to be confronted with our own people." ”

“Tice…… Started to play the hot music style?? ”

"No, it's cute...... Well, it's aimed at male fans anyway, you know. ”

"Okay. I know. William Wang nodded, "Just don't be coquettish and cute...... And cheerleading style, right? ”

"Yes, but it's okay to be more energetic." Li Zhina nodded. "It's better to have a fresher girl's style."

"Okay, I'll go back and get ready."

"It's okay, there's no need to rush. It doesn't matter if you can't write it, anyway, the company already has several very good composers and lyricists, and the quantity and quality of the songs are guaranteed, but if you take it out...... I would like the quality to be a little higher. ”

"I know, and I don't want to be ashamed. Even if it's to distract myself, I'm not going to mess around. ”

William Wang nodded.

"Okay, if you have something to do, go first, I'...... Hmmm......"

"There's nothing you can do in the company!" Li Zhi's smiling dismantling of the stage.

"You just go, I don't have to worry about you." William Wang shook his head with a speechless smile, then turned around and walked out of his office before Li Zhina.

"What are you running...... Li Zhina complained behind William Wang's back.

“…… BY THE WAY, WHAT IS THE LEVEL OF ENGLISH FOR LOONA'S CHILDREN? William Wang decided to change the topic.

"It's okay! The children in our company regard language teaching as an important link, and Jieqiong's level should be the highest. How, do you want to write songs in English? ”

"If you could, wouldn't it be one more option!"

"Well, you write! It's a big deal to let people make up for their evil. But I really doubt if you can write it......"

“…… Then you didn't ask. ”

William Wang buried his head and left Li Zhina's office.

IN FACT, COMPARED TO WRITING SONGS FOR LOONA OR SOMETHING, HE REALLY WANTS TO GO HOME, BUT IT SEEMS THAT ALTHOUGH THE SUCCUBUS HAS TRIED VERY HARD TO HELP HIM EXPLAIN TO KIM TAEYEON, KIM TAEYEON DOESN'T SEEM TO BELIEVE THE STORY MADE UP BY THE SUCCUBUS THAT WANG WILLIAM DOESN'T KNOW WHAT IT IS.

It's just in William Wang's mind......

‘OPPA！ Where are you! Give me back!! ’

'I'm doing something at work, I'm done......

'Yikes! Don't pretend to me! Hurry up and get me back! Or you'll never come back! ’

‘…… Do you really want me to never go back? ’

'William Wang! Something wrong with you, isn't it! Give me back! I have something to ask you! ’

'I'll be done with this side of the business.' ’

'You ......'

William Wang interrupted the exchange with Kim Taeyeon.

Took a deep breath.

I don't think I'm ready to tell her about it in person......

Why don't you go home yet?
