568 Why is it suddenly about to withdraw?
“…… So, such a thing that can attract ghosts, you give it to me, let me hang it in the office and listen to it? ”
On Saturday morning local time, in the president's office at the cave headquarters of illiam Entertainment.
Li Zhi said with a ridiculous face to William Wang, who was sitting on the sofa with Erlang's legs crossed, drinking coffee.
"What are you afraid of, it's not like you haven't been a ghost."
William Wang snorted, looking indifferent.
"I'm not afraid, but there are ...... in this company," Li Zhina still looked ridiculous, and pointed to his feet, "There are so many people, what are you doing with this thing hanging here and recruiting so many ghosts?" ”
"If someone without mana holds it, this thing is just a bell, otherwise you think Zhu Na hasn't tried to knock it?" William Wang smiled, "Don't worry, it's really nothing." ”
"But I still think it's weird......"
"Then you think so, as long as there are Irene and me in the company one day, even if the company building is full of ghosts, no one dares to make trouble." William Wang changed his sentence and said: "By the way, there is also the black stone on my desk, if you are really afraid of unclean things in the company, put the stone at the door downstairs." ”
"You might as well take that huge piece of obsidian from your house and put it in front of the company."
"What! The little stone on my desk is better than the one in my house. William Wang shook his head, "Do you know why Zhu Na's son's ghost said that he couldn't get close to his mother before?" It wasn't really his mother's special ability, it was just that his mother had always put that stone on the desk in the office, and as a result, his mother also had the ability to keep ghosts out of reach......"
“…… What the hell is this stone? So powerful? Li Zhina was confused by William Wang's words.
"It doesn't matter, I don't dare to put that stone in my house, I'm afraid that after a long time, the nine-tailed fox and the succubus and my two Shishen will be uncomfortable, so I took it to the company and put it." William Wang waved his hand, "But actually, I don't recommend that you leave that stone at the door of the company, because I can't figure out if it will make Hyomin, Irene, and Jin Sharon uncomfortable after a long time." ”
“…… Kim Sharon? She...... Similar to Hyomin and Irene? ”
"She's a lot better than Hyo-min and Irene." William Wang smiled and shook his head, "Angels know, right?" ”
“…… Is she an angel? ”
"More than angels! Archangel! In the truest sense of the word, the head of all angels, the one God above all the angels! William Wang ran the train with a serious face.
“…… Would such a person be afraid of that stone? ”
"The more powerful the person, the more afraid he is, you see, I didn't say that you would be uncomfortable with the stone next to you, because you are an ordinary person." William Wang spread his hands.
“…… It sounds really hurtful. Li Zhina sighed, "Okay, let's not talk about this, since you came here today, I still have to tell you something." ”
"What?"
"On Tuesday, there was news that Han Hyo-joo signed a new company."
"Oh."
“…… You don't even ask where the check-in is? ”
"What is there to ask?" William Wang smiled, "Wasn't she already filming some time ago!" Now that the filming is over, it is estimated that it will be promoted, sign a new company to help her run and arrange arrangements, there is no big problem! ”
"Are you really okay with her not returning to our company?"
"What's the opinion?" William Wang shook his head with a speechless smile, "It's just a friend, it's just a favor, besides, when people are in the company, they don't help us make money, it's okay." ”
"It's just that I think it's a little weird." Li Zhina looked at William Wang's calmness, but became more and more calm.
"They didn't sell us again......"
"No! It's lately, and it feels like there's a bit of an undercurrent surging around the company. ”
“…… Recent? ”
"Just the month you started filming variety shows in Russia, because you were busy, I didn't tell you." Li Zhina nodded, "The atmosphere has been smelling a little dangerous lately. ”
"Who else dares to trouble us?" William Wang was a little speechless, "Do you think we are easy to bully?" ”
"Half a month ago, S Electronics sent us a letter saying that it would terminate Irene's endorsement contract with them and was willing to pay liquidated damages." Li Zhi's tone was a little serious, "Last week, Mnet sent us an invitation to Dreamcatcher to attend their year-end awards ceremony at MAMA this year, but a PD we are familiar with at Mnet, well, the PD in charge when you went to MCD to be a special MC guest before quietly called me and said that it is not recommended for Dreamcatcher to go, because Mnet not only does not plan to present Dreamcatcher with awards this year, I also have to dig holes in the children's stage choreography...... And then that collaboration stage between you and Taeyeon this year......"
"Isn't TroubleMaker working pretty well? What's the problem too? William Wang was a little surprised.
"Your song was supposed to be the No. 1 hit song in the second half of this year, but since last week, the song "Gangnam Style" released by YG's previous YG artist PSY has suddenly exploded again. Not only the degree of discussion in various places, but even the number of hits on video sites has swelled all of a sudden. Li Zhina sighed, "I surpassed you in one go." ”
"Oh......" William Wang nodded.
“…… You're just going to be done in one minute? ”
"So what's not? People's songs are becoming popular, are you not convinced? William Wang smiled, "You have to allow others to be popular!" ”
"But it's weird to be red!" Li Zhina shook his head, "The melody of that song is actually not too special, at most, there is a horse riding dance is okay, but really speaking, the quality of the song is not necessarily as good as the PartyShaker and Timber you wrote." Even considering the popularity of YG and the promotion methods of YG, you shouldn't be back after all of your TroubleMakers have quit playing! This week's music center actually sent another person to that song! ”
“…… So what exactly do you think went wrong? William Wang was a little speechless when he heard Li Zhina's worries.
Other people's songs may be really good! What's the problem?
"I think there's been a lot of people trying to do something to our company lately." Li Zhina continued a little worriedly: "I may not dare to do it openly, but secretly it seems that I want to squeeze us out of the peninsula market. So for some reasons that seem to be quite high-sounding...... I'm more worried about the bunch of endorsements you got back for Dreamcatcher a few months ago when you went to meet with the people in the Holy City and somehow helped Dreamcatcher get it back, and if you also terminate the contract one by one, the consequences could be serious. ”
"Dominoes?"
"That's what it means." Li Zhina nodded. "And after the S Group started this, the matter of asking Hyuna to endorse a soju that we were talking about before also stopped. If this continues, maybe the children won't be able to get an endorsement in China......"
"What about the endorsement on the actor's side?"
"It's all long-term contracts over there, Jiang Sula just signed a three-year contract in August this year, Liu Renna signed a two-year contract in April, and Jin Sharon is the same, so don't worry. It's just that the endorsement contracts on the Dreamcatcher side are all one-year contracts, and at that time, considering that they all came to the door by themselves, the liquidated damages clause is either not there or very low......"
"If we really can't stay on the peninsula, then we'll go!"
“…… I said, can you talk well! ”
"Oh, you don't understand that you're from the Peninsula?" William Wang smiled and said, "Squeeze us out? We just need to be world superstars, even if we don't stay in the country, believe it or not, the peninsula is full of our news? ”
"But I always feel a little uncomfortable!" Li Zhina shook his head, "We are also conscientious in China, who doesn't like us!" And didn't you clean up all the people before, shouldn't there be nothing wrong? Recently, the ruling and opposition parties have been in a miasma, and we are already distracting them by arranging your activities...... That's a bit too much, isn't it? ”
"Maybe the left and right sides have reached a consensus, no matter how they pinch it, drive us away from the wall and then continue?" William Wang laughed, "It seems that there is only one possibility, right?" Otherwise, no matter which side they make the first move, they will push us to the opposite side! ”
“…… When you say that, it seems to make some sense. Li Zhina was stunned for a moment, then nodded.
"Or join forces to force us to take a stand." William Wang thought for a moment and continued: "Whatever they are. ”
"But at the end of the year, we're going to have Dreamcatcher back! Is it still arranged? Li Zhina was a little helpless, "Coupled with the TVN side of the matter, now that we are more involved, it seems that it is not so easy to get out!" ”
"It's a big deal, the company doesn't want it, what are you afraid of!" William Wang spread his hands very cleanly, "Anyway, the company's assets are mainly abroad, and this building is just in China...... Give it to them, and when the time comes, see if anyone will dare to invest in the peninsula in the future. ”
"That's not what you say...... Li Zhi was a little sneering.
"I'm just talking about the worst-case scenario." William Wang shook his head, "Even if Duan Zhixian can't handle it, I have a way to make people on this side mess up." I've been through proxy wars more than you've ever seen, don't worry. ”
“…… Maybe! Li Zhina sighed again.
"Okay, let's talk about something else." William Wang really doesn't seem to care much about this matter.
"There's nothing else to say." Li Zhi was a little helpless, "The return plan of Dreamcatcher at the end of the year has not yet started, and now the firing line is suspended, and the members can do their own thing." The actor's side...... Liu Renna went to TVN to star in the TV series that ended the broadcast last week, and the ratings are still only 1%, please answer 1997 for the same period, and she made a background board again, and she herself can be regarded as resigned to her fate, saying that she will not be the heroine in the future. Jiang Sura hasn't received any reliable commercial films since she was Taotao by the Sunshine Sisters, and she has been working the road of literary films, holding back her desire to win awards, so she doesn't have much to care about, but Yu Shengyan ...... Oh, she changed her stage name to Kong Shengyan, and for the first time as the second female lead, she officially appeared on the big screen. ”
"Why did she change her stage name?"
"I've been a trainee!"
“…… Does this also have an impact? ”
"I don't know, she wants to change it herself, anyway, it doesn't matter, I'll leave it to her! It seems to say that changing her name will help her become popular...... Superstitious stuff, it doesn't matter. Li Zhina said casually, "By the way, there is one last thing......
"And the most important thing, right?" William Wang glanced at Li Zhina. "Also, we just finished talking about the stone that drove away ghosts in the town, and you turned your face and said that it is really appropriate for people to be superstitious?"
"Well, you asked Luo Yingshi to help you and Kim Taeyeon do a variety show project before, Luo Yingshi made it the day before yesterday, and then yesterday he sent a shooting invitation to Kim Taeyeon as an independent studio, but he refused."
“…… That is in the name of our company......"
"I should know our relationship with Luo Yingshi. Their refusal should have been directed at us. ”
"What the hell are you doing?"
"Didn't I just say that? Someone is trying to trouble us and kick us out of the peninsula...... I also feel the direction of the wind, and we actually took advantage of the situation to force them to cooperate before, and now we may want to fight back against us. In fact, this is the main reason why I told you that our company has been in a very embarrassing situation recently, otherwise I wouldn't have told you. ”
“……”
"So, are you still so calm now?" Li Zhina looked at William Wang with a mocking look.
"It's just a variety show, so I won't shoot it." William Wang shook his head, "I'm also strange, I haven't left the peninsula either!" Why did this month's work suddenly become so strange...... Otherwise, I'll ask Duan Zhixian. ”
"You're finally willing to ask!" There was a hint of amusement in Li Zhina's words.
It's a bit shameful to hang up on your business...... William Wang felt a little embarrassed.
Still, he picked up his phone.
However......
"Your Excellency Prophet, I think this incident is a good thing for you."
"What do you mean?"
"In the past few years since you came to the peninsula, there have always been people who seem to want to stumble you behind your back." Duan Zhixian on the phone spoke in a very calm voice, "Except for Cui Xunshi, there are always a small number of people who jump up and down, and the previous commander gave them a little wrong signal, and they were very active, but after being pressed down quickly, those people's heads retracted before they came out, and this time I think it's a good opportunity to clean up these people." At least we can catch them all. ”
"Don't take it off, you won't be able to stop the scene when the time comes."
"Don't worry, I have news about these people's actions recently, if you need me, I can give you a batch of lists right now, but I always feel that the big head in the back hasn't come out yet."
"Big head? Do you mean S Group or what? ”
Hearing Duan Zhixian say here that he has a number, in fact, William Wang is basically relieved.
This follower of his own, William Wang is still very trustworthy, and he also understands that since the S Group found fault with himself here, he has not been very happy, and he always feels that it is a shame that he has not been able to protect William Wang's "peaceful little life" here.
This time, I guess I don't know who provoked him to be completely mad, so he would do this.
"The group is at most down the ground this time, and CJ is the one I want them to cut clean up, creating a bit of an embattled situation for you, so as to lure the big snake out. You can rest assured, although the situation seems to be a little turbulent, but in fact there will not be too many substantive problems, at most some wall grass may be in the wind, I will give you an explanation here before March next year. "Duan Zhixian made a military order very decisively." Which chaebol, or which chaebols have joined forces to find you or find me, I will deal with them cleanly. ”
"March next year? Good. William Wang nodded, "If you need help from others, you can talk to those people first when you go to Switzerland for a meeting next week." ”
"I will, Your Excellency the Prophet, and be of good cheer."
The phone hangs up.
William Wang looked at Li Zhina.
What does that mean, you hear that?
"So it's before March next year......" Li Zhina nodded, then stunned for a moment, and laughed again.
“…… What are you laughing at? ”
"At the end of February next year, the results of the general election should be out......"
“…… So Duan Zhixian is planning to help that Councilor Park to come to power? William Wang also understood in an instant.
"I guess so, if that's the case, then we really don't have to worry about it." Li Zhina smiled and shook his head.
"yes!" William Wang nodded.
The greatest advantage of this kind of government support is that the authority of the general leader is very large, in order to facilitate the management of the ......
Ahem, don't talk about this.
"Then we won't have any domestic events until March next year...... Otherwise, I'll let the kids go for a run in the United States. ”
Li Zhina thought for a while and said.
"Yes." William Wang nodded, "It's okay to be an island country, if you feel the need." ”
"Island nation...... Okay, too. Li Zhina thought for a moment and nodded, "But I think it's better to stay away." ”
"If you look at it, we won't arrange the company's artists to have domestic activities in the past six months...... Some things you look at and arrange with the company. ”
"No problem." Li Zhina nodded, "It just so happens that the second part of The Hunger Games will be released in March next year, and then we will start arranging for the children to return to China." ”
"Yes." William Wang nodded, "By the way, why don't you get an English song that they can sing when they are active in the United States?" ”
"It's up to you! Anyway, you are the only person in the company who can write English songs. Li Zhina smiled and said, "Are you willing to write for them?" ”
"They're going to the U.S. because of me, I think...... I think I should write it for them. William Wang smiled.
"What about the actors?"
"Anyway, they have acted in a lot of dramas since the first half of this year, so it's time to take a break! Then go to the United States to interview for some supporting roles and other roles! William Wang smiled and said, "It's a vacation." ”
"That's equivalent to the company's entire move to the United States!" Li Zhina sighed softly, "I feel like I've escaped." ”
"You all know that this position is about to be covered by bombing, do you want to be a fool or a hero if you are still staying here!" William Wang smiled and complained.
"What about you? Your RunningMan ......"
"Find a reason to quit!" William Wang thought for a while, "You go and contact the director of SS TV, directly talk about the situation our company is facing now, and take the initiative to put forward it, so as not to embarrass them, so that it can sell well at SS TV, and it will be easy to talk when you come back next spring." ”
"Okay." Li Zhina nodded, "It's just right, I can also take a few months off......
"Yes! Rest and rest, and when you come back, fight again when you want to fight like this. ”
"Hmmm......"
