367. Busan
In the blink of an eye, the time has come to September 28th.
And the time before the event was held, it was only one day.
Because it is a very important and important activity, Bae Joo-hyun and others came to the airport early in the morning under the arrangement of Sung Tae-qian, preparing to fly directly to Busan.
Don't look at the sudden explosion of Red velvet's return this time, but this explosion is actually far beyond S-M's expectations.
The company did arrange a lot of performances for Bae Joo-hyun and them in the back, but overall, the performances after the return of Red velvet this time are actually not as many as the previous returns.
On the one hand, this is the first time that this has withstood the test of public opinion, even with the support of fans in Huaxia, S-M was not particularly optimistic about their results this time at first.
first announced their return to the music world in a low-key manner, informing fans of their return, and as for the real force, it will be the next return.
And the next return is already being conceived, tentatively scheduled for March next year, that is, half a year later, this half a year will allow Bae Joo-hyun and others to participate in part of the show, and it is enough to show their faces appropriately.
But now they suddenly exploded
So when they appeared at the airport in a low-key manner, many fans still recognized them and were very curious about the purpose of their visit to the airport.
Anyway, the official website did not disclose the itinerary of Bae Joo-hyun and others.
"Sister Wendy! Are you guys going to a show? ”
In the past, she was very friendly to fans, and Sun Shengwan, who knew everything, did not honestly say the purpose of their trip this time, she hooked the corners of her mouth to the fans on the side, showing a bright smile: "You can't say it." ”
"Wow~ good or bad, can't you tell us?"
"Eh, look ahead, don't bump into it." Sun Shengwan hurriedly reminded the fan who followed them towards the VIP channel.
The fan who was reminded hurriedly looked in front of him and then stopped.
There was a pillar not far in front of her, and if it weren't for Sun Shengwan's timely reminder, it was estimated that she would have crashed into it.
"Ahh
"Be careful, okay, we're going to go in first, bye~"
"Whew"
Several fans who followed together made a voice of pity, and they actively waved at Bae Joo-hyun and others.
Bae Joo-hyun, who was just smiling at them from the beginning, also raised his hand and waved it, saying goodbye to these fans, and then followed the staff into the VIP channel.
After confirming that there were no outsiders around him, Sun Shengwan breathed a sigh of relief and hesitated a little: "Didn't you explain your work to the outside world this time?" ”
Cheng Taiqian, who was standing beside them, chuckled: "This is not work at all, you are invited to the event, and you were invited in your personal name, how can the company blatantly tell fans about this." ”
When Mr. Wang Chengjie sent the letter, he made it clear that Pei Zhuxian, Jiang Shiqi, and Sun Shengwan were invited, not "Irene", "Shiqi", "Wendy", and not "Red velvet".
As for whether this matter will be "accidentally" known by some fans, it depends on the thoughts of the Consulate General.
If you want to keep this matter hidden, then S-M will naturally try her best to suppress the heat and not let this matter be exposed in front of fans and the public.
And if the Consulate General doesn't mind, S-M will definitely let this matter come to light.
"There are a lot of people who know us who participated in the event, what if they say it?"
"Don't worry, those who can participate in the event are not stupid, and we still can't wait for those people to say it, if this thing can really get out, your work in the next half a year is probably not to worry."
Cheng Taeqian said, his eyes swept towards Bae Joo-hyun.
Pei Zhuhyun, who was stared at like this, also noticed Cheng Taiqian's gaze, and she smiled innocently: "What does Brother Taiqian do you want me to do?" ”
So far, S-M still hasn't been able to ask any inside story from Bae Joo-hyun.
In other words, it is still unknown whether the company can participate in this event is related to Liu Xin'an.
Pei Zhuhyun didn't know three questions, and the company couldn't ask Liu Xinan directly, so the matter was delayed.
"It's all today, Erin, you honestly, does it really have nothing to do with Xin'an?"
Bae Joo-hyun spread his hands: "I said I don't know." ”
"Hey, okay, I can understand your caution, but regardless of whether this matter has anything to do with Xin'an, the five of you can be regarded as completely bound to Huaxia."
It's hard to say whether this is a good thing or not.
It's better for artists not to participate in any political activities, especially a popular girl group like them that also has a lot of fans in the world.
But S-M urgently needs this opportunity to improve its relationship with Huaxia, so the company is also making a big gamble in this matter.
As for the bet this time, it is the five women in front of him.
If the relationship between the two countries is close for some time to come, then Red velvet, where Bae Joo-hyun is located, will get endless benefits.
If it's the other way around
That could be a disaster for Red velvet.
But it is undeniable that making friends first now will definitely outweigh the disadvantages for Red velvet.
The members who have debuted for seven years are not newcomers, and they are also very clear about Cheng Taiqian's deep advice.
Opportunities often come with risks.
For Red velvet, who had worked hard last year and the year before, it was better to risk everything to seize this opportunity.
Instead of tepidly testing the market little by little, and finally getting an indefinite answer, it is better to take this opportunity to make money for the rest of your life in one fell swoop!
Vulgar is a little vulgar, but the words are not rough
And at the same time, Liu Xin'an doesn't need Pei Zhuxun and them to work so hard.
In order to reduce the appearance of public opinion and avoid the possibility of appearing at the airport together to be recognized by fans, Liu Xinan did not choose to take the same plane with Pei Zhuhyun and them.
At this time, he was eating breakfast leisurely, and at the same time pressing his mobile phone and chatting with Bae Joo-hyun on the other side of the phone.
After a while, he put his phone away and began to pack his luggage.
This time, I had to stay in Busan for two or three days before I could come back, so I still had to prepare a change of clothes or something.
Bae Joo-hyun and the others had already taken off, and his plane was at one o'clock in the afternoon, so in terms of time, he still had plenty of time.
However, the live broadcast of the past two days is obviously going to be a pigeon, and he did not tell the sailors what he was going to be busy with in the past two days, but just said that he had some personal matters.
And this vague statement also made sailors start all kinds of bizarre speculations.
Fortunately, no one has guessed the specific situation yet, which also makes Liu Xinan can't help but look forward to the reaction of the sailors after waiting for a few days, and after he uploads the recorded videos taken in the past two days.
At half past two in the afternoon, Liu Xin'an set foot on this land called Busan for the first time.
This is also the third city that Yoo Shin-an came to after Seoul and Daegu.
Before getting off the plane, Liu Xinan saw the sign holding his name high at a glance.
"Oh! Brother Anzi's side! ”
Dai Zhiyuan, who had always been on the phone with him, saw Liu Xin'an, who was very conspicuous in the crowd, at a glance, waving signs and shouting.
Liu Xin'an walked over and was happy.
"You even came here to pick you up? Not busy? ”
"Busy and idle, just yourself?"
The man in front of him stretched out his hand and pushed the black-rimmed glasses, and his polite appearance gave people a feeling like a spring breeze.
"Otherwise, just send me to the guest house, I don't want to delay your work."
"In this case, you are also a compatriot, and my job is to solve problems for my compatriots."
"Can I solve this problem with a taxi, can it also be regarded as a problem?"
"Shall I put you down?"
Liu Xin'an was startled by these words, he quickly reached out and grabbed the handrail, grinning: "Then forget it." ”
The car is driving smoothly in the city of Busan, and there is not much difference between it and Seoul, but it is certainly not as prosperous as Seoul.
"Come early tomorrow afternoon, and introduce you to our consul, and his wife."
"Cheng, you can arrange it for me, I really didn't expect that there would be such an influential person among my sailors."
No matter how many times they chat together, Liu Xin'an will always be impressed by the breadth of his social circle.
"What's really amazing is your relationship with Ms. Bae Joo-hyun, if it weren't for this relationship, I might be just a little transparent diving in the live broadcast room for the rest of my life."
"The kind that doesn't even have a brand?"
"Then for sure, you have to be scolded by Xiao Po to spend money on you, why don't I invite you to dinner directly, do you say?"
"Reasonable, convincing to me, worthy of you."
"Hahahaha. Sister-in-law, they've arrived, right? Dai Zhiyuan laughed loudly and continued to control the car steadily, while asking loudly.
"Well, a lot earlier than me."
"I'm looking forward to tomorrow my sister-in-law's reaction after seeing me, it will definitely be interesting."
They are all young people, and Dai Zhiyuan is even three years younger than Liu Xin'an, so everyone is more casual when chatting.
"Don't scare them."
"How is it possible, I'm just an ordinary cultural consul, it's far from scary, the group of guests who come over tomorrow is scary in the real sense Anyway, I'll take my sister-in-law to meet these guests when the time comes, it's beneficial."
Most of the guests who can be invited to this banquet are some dignitaries, and they have a good relationship with Huaxia, at this time, he introduced Pei Zhuhyun to this group of people, and he will definitely leave a very deep impression on the hearts of this group of people.
As long as Bae Joo-hyun can be remembered by this group of people, it will definitely be of great help to Bae Joo-hyun's future development.
What's more.
"I heard that this time, Datai's branch here will also come."
The moment the familiar name of Datai appeared, Liu Xinan showed an embarrassed smile.
"You got it?"
"It's strange that I don't know." Dai Zhiyuan smiled helplessly, he had known this kind of thing for a long time,
It is true that he contacted Liu Xin'an mainly because he was Liu Xin'an's sailor, but when he saw the family composition written on Liu Xin'an's information, especially the column of Liu Xin'an's father's position, he still couldn't help but widen his eyes in shock.
What the senior officials of the Datai Group mean are very clear to him.
Compared with Liu Xin'an's father, they can actually provide Liu Xin'an with very limited help.
"That's right."
"Does my sister-in-law know about this?"
"I vaguely know, I didn't say it too clearly, but this time I was also ordered by my father to take Zhuhyun to meet the head of Datai here."
If you let other guests know about it, I'm afraid S-M won't dare to do anything to you and your sister-in-law after she finds out."
Dai Zhiyuan smiled helplessly, if he could, he actually wanted to find something unhappy for S-M.
But rabbits have always been reasonable and convincing, and generally do not take the initiative to do things that bully others.
That's why he wanted to take advantage of Liu Xin'an and Bae Joo-hyun's relationship.
Your S-M's idea of beating Bae Joo-hyun has nothing to do with them, but if you hit Liu Xin'an with the idea, then they have plenty of reasons to get S-M.
As long as there is this opportunity, whenever they open their mouths to express this idea, there will be many people rushing to cooperate.
"I'm also struggling with this matter, so if I can't, I'll see you in private when I get back."
"Ah, you don't have to think about us, it's important to get down to business with you first."
"Let's talk about the specific situation then, and I'll ask my dad in the evening."
"Cheng, if you can, I would like to say hello to my uncle, Your Excellency Liu Xin'an, Dai Zhiyuan, Second Secretary of the Chinese Consulate General in Busan, I would like to extend my sincere condolences and highest respect to him on behalf of my uncle: Dai Zhiyuan, Cultural Consul of the Chinese Consulate General in Busan, would like to extend my sincere condolences and highest respect to him on behalf of him and the entire Cultural Department."
This quite official statement made the corners of Liu Xin'an's mouth twitch, and he could understand the polite words, but the words were too polite and official.
"Should I also be polite in reply?" Liu Xin'an's tone was strange, but he couldn't hide his smile and replied.
Dai Zhiyuan also seemed to realize that his speech was too natural, and while waiting for the red light, he spread his hands to Liu Xin'an.
"Come on, then."
"Fuck off, how can I do this."
Soon, the car stopped smoothly at the Consulate General's guest house.
As the guests invited this time, Bae Joo-hyun and the others were actually arranged to spend the night here, but he didn't have the idea of running to meet Bae Joo-hyun and them.
"Thank you, Zhiyuan."
"It's okay, Brother An Zi can call me if there is anything, dress as formal as possible tomorrow, and we will put a photo with you on the official website when we get back."
No matter how you say it, Liu Xinan is also a celebrity with a lot of influence, and it is not unusual to have this treatment.
"I see, I've got a formal suit."
"Well, then I'll go back first."
After speaking, Dai Zhiyuan turned around and left, and Liu Xinan turned around and walked into the official guest house after seeing the other party leave.
After completing all the formalities, Liu Xinan walked into the room.
Throwing away the luggage or something, he sat on the chair next to him, took out his mobile phone and dialed the phone number of Bae Joo-hyun who had been messaging him since ten minutes ago.
The phone was answered in an instant, and Bae Joo-hyun and the others didn't have any extra work in the past two days, so they were leisurely eating food in a restaurant at this time.
It's also a publicly-funded tour.
"Arrived?"
"Yes." Liu Xin'an responded first, and after hearing Sun Shengwan's excited voice on Pei Zhuhyun's side, he asked curiously, "Are you going out?" ”
"Well, I'm eating food."
"Sister Zhuhyun, hurry up and start a video chat with Liu Xin'an, stimulate him!"
Sun Shengwan, who knew who Pei Zhuhyun was chatting with, turned his head to look at Pei Zhuhyun beside him, and joked with a smile.
This proposal was unanimously approved by the members, as a person who has a good relationship with all members of the Red velvet, plus it is still recognized by everyone, Bae Joo-hyun's qualified boyfriend, everyone wants to tease him.
"Wow, Sun Shengwan, I am grateful for taking such good care of you during the filming of the show."
"You fart, when did you take care of me? You've always taken care of Momo and Joo-hyun! ”
Sun Sheng didn't like to hear this, she didn't deny that Liu Xinan took care of her, but the word "then" must be very inappropriate.
Seeing that Sun Shengwan was about to lie on top of him, Bae Zhuhyun raised his eyebrows, turned on the speaker cooperatively, and released his boyfriend's voice.
And this action also made the members who were already in a very high state even more excited.
"Yikes! Now that you're in Busan, hurry up! ”
"In the past? What did I do in the past? ”
"Sister Joo-hyun, don't you mind calling your boyfriend to come over and pay the bill?"
"What's the panic, hurry up, otherwise we won't let Sister Joo Hyun go tonight!"
Jiang Shiqi also knew to ask Pei Zhuhyun's opinion, and Sun Shengwan was much more arrogant, she shouted excitedly at the mobile phone, and her eyebrows fluttered as if she was drunk.
However, there is no alcohol on the table today, so Sun Shengwan is probably . Drunk on Coke?
No, the only one in the group who will really get drunk with Coke is Bae Joo-hyun, she is famous for being excited when she drinks Coke.
"What did you say?" Bae Joo-hyun glared, she couldn't hear this.
Sun Shengwan hurriedly winked at Pei Zhuyun and motioned for Pei Zhuyun to be quiet and cooperate with her.
But she seems to have forgotten that the object of her calculation at this time is none other than Bae Joo-hyun's boyfriend.
Bae Joo-hyun turned off the speaker, got up with his mobile phone, and walked towards the bathroom in the private room.
After closing the door to the bathroom, the surrounding environment was completely quiet.
"Whew, these girls are too noisy."
"Indeed, my head is big when I hear it."
"Ah, I can complain about them, but you can't!"
Bae Joo-hyun is very protective of her sisters, as she said, she can complain about her sisters, but Liu Xin'an can't!
"Okay, okay, I won't say it, where are you now?"
"Hmm, a restaurant that I found after winning is very good, do you want to come over?"
It doesn't matter if you pay the bill or not, the expense company that came to Busan this time is all covered, so everyone is just talking and playing, and they will definitely not really let Liu Xinan pay the bill.
But if he could, Bae Joo-hyun would definitely want to meet Liu Xin'an earlier.
However, Liu Xin'an did not agree.
"I'm just going to go, let's keep a low profile as much as possible."
"Hmph, forget it if you don't come." Bae Joo-hyun snorted lightly, the unhappiness in her voice was obvious.
In this regard, Liu Xinan had to smile and appease his girlfriend who had a little temper.
Fortunately, Bae Joo-hyun is a very coaxing person.
Soon, she smiled again, and chatted with Liu Xin'an sentence by sentence.
