Friendly recommendation: "The King of Korean Entertainment", we don't know the author, but I read it a long time ago, a good Korean entertainment novel, Baimeng.
Note: This shijie is just a virtual time and space, don't compare it with reality, otherwise you will collapse.

When Zhang Yang opened his eyes, the first thing he saw was a somewhat dimly lit roof, a wooden floor underfoot, and a large reflector next to it, the most common kind in places where he learned to dance.
"What's going on, the zombie feast in the basement?"
I don't know what kind of identity I am arranged by the system, but I am worried that like in the plot, Leng Buding suddenly sprang out of a zombie from behind him, Zhang Yang still got up from the ground, and there was a pain in the back of his head, and he seemed to be unconscious before.
Looking around, Zhang Yang was the only one in the empty practice room, and a tape recorder next to him was playing the background music of Resident Evil, Zhang Yang walked over and pressed the pause button, and the tape he took out had a red and white logo of the umbrella company.
βUmbrella??????????????? (Translation: Ambrare Company Promotional Soundtrack)"
Seeing these familiar fonts, Zhang Yang can recognize that this is Korean, there are still some differences between Korean and Japanese, and the strange thing is that Zhang Yang can directly understand the meaning of these Koreans, and it seems that his body seems to have lived in Korea for many years.
Looking in the mirror, Zhang Yang now is a boy who looks about 19 years old, with black eyes and black hair, the lines on his face are slightly soft, and his facial features are also very upright. It seemed that there was a faint pop style, and three fonts suddenly appeared in his mind.
"Trainee?"
β¦β¦
My name is Li Xiuman.
Lee so-man's show, Lee so-man's full.
I was also an entertainer when I was younger, and I was active in the Korean music scene in the early 70s of the 20th century, but I chose to live in seclusion because I found that watching my children become stars behind the scenes was more rewarding than becoming stars myself.
Of course, this is also fraught with challenges.
Starting an entertainment company requires a lot of money and is not a well-known company. It was a problem to recruit the first trainees, so I opened a cafΓ©, which saved my first money, and I saved 200 million won to open SM Project.
After the success of H.O.T, I officially founded SM Entertainment Co., Ltd. (S.M. Entertainment) in Korea. Countless stars have appeared under me: HO.T, Shinhyo, S.E.S, FlytotheSky, BoA, TVXQ, SuperJunior, SuperJunior-M, Girls' Generation, SHINEE, f(x), EXO, ......
I can proudly say that I am leading the trend of Korean music as a whole.
Li Xiuman's face was very gloomy. Fingers kept tapping on the desk. A few muffled screams outside didn't interest him in the slightest, and there was a picture in front of him, it was a man.
I thought I could continue to lead my Star Museum forward, but it got in my way.
Kim Young-min!
He took my place as president.
Why is he?
Thinking of TVXQ's case of breaking out the slave contract, a trace of anger flashed in Li Xiuman's eyes.
Slave contract? Artists are the property of the company. The company has spent so much effort to train you, of course, the cost must be recovered at one time, and you must continue to attract money for the company, which is the artist I want.
H.O.Tγ Mythology, TVXQ?
If you're not satisfied with the contract, then get out of S.M! What about the top entertainment groups? It's not that I have directly disbanded it, since I can bring out your first and second ones, I can bring out the tenth and hundredth top artists!
Who am I?
I'm Lee so-man.
SJ's Han Geng's termination of the contract and leaving, at most, has some impact on SJ-M's entry into the Chinese market, anyway, there is SHINEE, Yun Hao and Chang Min are also continuing to insist, of course, there is also my exo, the boy group is king!
Kim Young-min, you girl group control!
Kim Young-min finally secured the position of president of S.M by virtue of his strong support for girls' generation, and he was sentenced by the Seoul Supreme Court because of TVXQ's slave contract incident, coupled with being reported for embezzlement of public funds for profit, so he fled to the United States for refuge, and was later pardoned by Roh Moo-hyun during his tenure, and finally returned to the post, although he continued to serve, but he was only responsible for the position of artist director.
Although I have lost the right to speak, S.M is still inseparable from myself, who am I? I'm Lee so-man.
Since you are a girl group, then I will launch the function f(x), as well as the boy group EXO that I have carefully prepared, and I want to prove to you that I am the leader of S.M.
The photo on the desktop is naturally Kim Young-min, and Lee so-man kept this photo just to remind himself at all times.
"Ahh
A low scream from outside passed through, causing Li Xiuman to frown.
"Could it be that the person next door and his wife are fighting again? Why are you so inattentive to your image? β
Lee so-man was distraught and looked at an itinerary on the table, BOA and TVXQ were active in Japan, while kangta and SuperJunior were heading to Jeju Island for a star concert, and now the only debut artists in the company are Girls' Generation and f(x).
And that Kim Slag Won, who actually dared to seduce Taeyeon? The most hateful thing is that there is more than one ...... Taeyeon, but it doesn't matter, anyway, it's Kim Youngmin's combination, just don't touch our family Soon-gyu.
"Giggle......
There was a low creaking sound outside, like the sound of a dog gnawing on bones, Li Xiuman looked out the window, and because of the obstruction of the trees, he only saw a shadow flashing under the trees.
"Is that a cat or a dog?"
A few days ago, the South Korean government broadcast a radio that seemed to say that a huge nuclear explosion occurred in a place called Raccoon City in the United States, and as the umbrella company of Shijie's strongest company, it was strongly condemned.
Li Xiuman remembers. I specially asked the South Korean government, and I heard that the pollution of the nuclear explosion did not invade South Korea, let alone the huge Pacific Ocean, so I didn't care about that news, BOA and TVXQ went to Japan for singing activities according to the normal itinerary.
Li Xiuman's current car is the latest model launched by Umbrella Company, which is a large off-road vehicle that can fit 10 people and costs 170 million won (about 100W yuan). All of them use the newly developed high-explosion-proof glass of the umbrella company, and it is said that it can withstand the design of sniper rifles.
The Hummer, which was originally known as the most sturdy, was directly compared with the B-2000 off-road vehicle produced by this umbrella, and Li Xiuman was originally reluctant to buy it, but only planned to support the Hyundai car made in China. But when he saw Jin Zhayuan, he bought a private jet. I don't want to be compared. I simply bought the latest off-road vehicle from the umbrella company.
Such a large off-road vehicle with a standard capacity of 10 people and a maximum overload limit of 18 people, the exterior presents a standard streamlined shape, which looks more like a new type of sports car, and the appearance looks extraordinarily domineering, explosion-proof glass. It gives people a sense of security, in fact, it is not an exaggeration to use it as a nanny car.
"170 million won...... Jin Zhayuan, don't try to compare me. β
Listening to that dull creaking sound, Li Xiuman was suddenly upset. The mood that was going to continue to make new proposals was gone.,Because of the stimulation of Jin Zhayuan.,After EXO,,Originally, I was going to launch a solo male singer again.,The range of candidates has also been decided.γ
In a thick project on the table, Lee Min Woo is written on it, and it sounds a somewhat feminine name, which is the result of Lee so-man's selection from the S.M active trainees.
"Li Minyu, a native of Beijing, China, joined S.M in 1999 and has been a trainee for more than 4 years, and his family has a biological sister who is also in South Korea, working as a trainee in Meter Entertainment Project (a fictional company in this book), and has not yet debuted."
Li Xiuman looked at this information, the direction given by the company is that Li Minyu made his solo debut, depending on whether the situation is developing in China, the original jihua appeared with kangta at this Jeju Island star concert, and later canceled this jihua for some reasons, and it needs to be postponed for more than three months, and after BOA returns to South Korea, he will appear as a backup dancer during the music bank song, so as to make his official debut.
"That kid, I don't know if I can stand this stimulation, I have already notified him that he is about to debut, but with such a big gap at the moment, I don't know if there will be any problems."
pinched his chin, after being in contact with Jin Zhayuan for a long time, Li Xiuman was gradually affected, and at this time, there was a woman's scream outside again, and Li Xiuman finally broke out.
"Shouting and screaming on the streets, there is no national quality at all!"
As the tyrant of S.M, the rumors of Li Xiuman's beating are not known to be true or false, but he himself knows very well that these are the real situations, but under the operation of S.M, the impact of this incident is minimized.
The artist is the property of the company, and he doesn't need others to dictate how to do it himself!
The sound outside was still coming, it seemed that a person was struggling frantically after being frightened, and then gradually quieted down, Li Xiuman automatically made up this picture in his brain, then pushed his eyes, got up and left the office.
When passing by the upstairs dedicated practice room for debut artists, Lee so-man heard the music of "Idotaboy" coming from inside, and it seemed that Girls' Generation was practicing dance inside, so Lee so-man did not go in, but walked directly to the door of the company.
Otherwise, the security guard was a former bank escort named Han Nuo, who was guarding the door at the moment, and when he saw Li Xiuman coming, he immediately stood up straight.
"Hello Director."
"What's going on out there?"
Li Xiuman nodded, and then looked outside, except for a few company nanny cars, what made him a little strange was that there were no pedestrians on the street outside.
"No, I've been guarding the door, but it's a little strange that there are usually many fans waiting to see the artist at the door, but none of them showed up today." (To be continued......)
