372. When the Problem Is No Longer a Problem (Thanks to the Silver Alliance Leader of the Phantom Feather Boss!) 29/40)
Whether there is a specific way or not, in fact, it is difficult for Liu Xinan to answer.
After all, he is serious in the entertainment industry and has no connections.
If you have to say it, Uncle JYP is his connection, but JYP can't interfere with Bae Joo-hyun, and he doesn't want to cause any trouble to his uncle.
The matter that was made public was put aside by Liu Xin'an and Bae Joo-hyun for the time being, or that sentence, no matter what, it would have to wait until the blank period after the return to the end of the public matter.
At this time, there is still almost a week before the official end of Bae Joo-hyun's return.
As for how to continue to prepare for this week...
Bae Joo-hyun, who came to the company early the next morning, just walked into the door of the practice room, and then was called out by Cheng Taeqian.
Cheng Taiqian, who hadn't seen him all night, seemed to be a little haggard, Pei Zhuhyun looked at the other party suspiciously, and asked worriedly, "Is Brother Taiqian unwell?" ”
Cheng Taeqian, who was concerned, shook his head, reluctantly showed a smile, and stared at Bae Joo-hyun thoughtfully.
"Yesterday's uncle of Shin'an... Did you say something to prepare for you? ”
"Yes, but I said I can't make the decision, it depends on the company's decision..."
Bae Joo-hyun recalled the details of yesterday's banquet and replied softly, and after that, she opened her red lips slightly as if she had noticed something.
"Did that uncle contact the company?"
"Hmm... The company received a call early in the morning, and the same calls were made by Mayor Kwon of Daegu City, Mayor Park of Busan... There are also some big businesses..."
"Uh..." Bae Joo-hyun's hands and feet were numb, and she didn't know how to reply, she just pursed her lips with a stunned expression.
She only knew what Datai Gaoli meant yesterday, but what Cheng Taiqian said just now, she can be said to have heard it since she was a child.
So even with a night's buffer, she was inevitably shocked.
"Come with me first, I want to talk to you."
It is not difficult to see from Sung Tae-qian's changing attitude that the current status of Bae Joo-hyun in S-M is no longer the little artist who is fiddled by the company.
With last night's event, Bae Joo-hyun has become a very powerful presence in the company.
Of course, for Bae Joo-hyun, everything is still in her clouds.
So when she heard that the leaders wanted to talk to her, she hurriedly nodded and agreed.
"I see, let's go over now."
"Okay, follow me."
After waving his hand to signal Jiang Shiqi and the others to go to the practice room to wait first, Cheng Taeqian led Bae Joo-hyun towards the elevator entrance.
Soon, Bae Joo-hyun took the elevator to the floor where the senior leaders were.
She's rarely come up here, um... I was fortunate to come here once last year, but because of the outbreak of her public opinion, she was led up by Director Jin and scolded.
And now, it's the second time.
The mood of the two times has changed drastically, and the last time Bae Joo-hyun came over, he was always frightened.
As for this time... Although I am still scared, I don't have the same panic as last time.
"Is it the chairman you want to meet?"
On the way to the chairman's office, Bae Joo-hyun couldn't help but secretly ask Sung Tae-kyun in front of him.
Cheng Taiqian paused, glanced back at Pei Zhuhyun, and grinned: "I don't know, I guess." ”
"Oh..."
If it's Li Chengzhu, it's okay, this chairman is not as fierce as the previous chairmen, last time he said that he came to be scolded, but in fact, Li Chengzhu simply criticized her a few words, and then comforted her not to take it too seriously.
If this is replaced by Kim Young-min, or even Lee so-man, who used to control the company... I'm afraid she can be scolded and cried on the spot.
Soon, Sung Tae-qian took Bae Joo-hyun to the door of the chairman's office, and the former took a deep breath and raised his hand to knock on the door.
Then, a slightly older male voice came out.
And this voice made Sung Tae-qian and Bae Joo-hyun outside the door stunned.
Counting the trainee period before his debut, Bae Joo-hyun has been in this company for more than ten years.
In the past ten years, she has seen a lot of high-level officials, and the owner of this voice at this time is the object she used to be extremely afraid of, Li Xiuman.
is the one who is hated by Yoo Shin-an, Park Jin-young, and even Park Jung-sook... Founder of S-M.
"Just come in."
Li Xiuman's voice made Cheng Tae-qian and Bae Joo-hyun look at each other, and in the end, Sung Tae-mian's innocent hand spread in exchange for Bae Joo-hyun's pitiful expression.
"I'm definitely not blaming you, don't worry." Cheng Taiqian soothed, and then stood aside gloatingly.
He didn't have to go in with him anyway.
Bae Joo-hyun also understands this, but facing Lee so-man alone is probably not an easy task for any S-M artist.
Not... Except for Sonny of Girls' Generation, who is Li Xiuman's niece... The kind of blood relatives.
She took a deep breath, plucked up the courage to push open the door of the chairman's office, and walked in cautiously, not daring to breathe.
"Hello Mr. Li Xiuman, and the chairman."
It was not only Li Xiuman who was in the office, but also Director Li Chengzhu.
"Well, how was yesterday's banquet?"
Li Xiuman didn't speak, but Li Chengzhu smiled and asked about Bae Joo-hyun's specific situation.
"It was very interesting, it was all smooth, and the staff at the Consulate General took good care of us."
"That's good, I'm looking for you this time, mainly because I want to tell you something, today the company has received a lot of calls that want to find you to endorse products, or regional image, what is your own opinion?"
While speaking, Li Chengzhu took out a stack of documents from the drawer and handed them to Bae Joo-hyun in front of him.
Bae Joo-hyun was stunned for a moment, and after taking it, he flipped it over casually, and Tong Kong vibrate.
She was the darling of many advertisers before the accident, and she received some luxury endorsements for her outstanding appearance, and she also took over more national-level products, such as the soju endorsement that she didn't want Liu Xinan to see before...
But this time, the pile of documents handed over by Li Chengzhu are almost all top endorsements on par with the previous soju...
may not be as good as the price given by some luxury brands, but in terms of national popularity, as well as the subsequent influence on her individual and team, it is at the same level as the previous soju.
She even saw a cooperation intention with a "Samsung" title.
Bae Joo-hyun endured her excitement and tried her best to maintain her calm state, trying to calm her tone as much as possible.
"Do you want us to endorse you?"
"To be precise, I'm looking for you, but of course some of them want to be with you."
"I follow the company's arrangement."
Bae Joo-hyun replied with such a sentence, that is, such a sentence, which made Li Xiuman and Lee Sung-joo couldn't help frowning.
These endorsements can indeed bring a lot of benefits to S-M, and in this matter, they are also the same profiteers.
But the businessman's instincts prevented him from making such a hasty decision.
Ask Bae Joo-hyun's opinion, in addition to respecting Bae... No, it should be said that in addition to respecting Liu Xin'an's thoughts, there is also that they want to respond to these invitations in a steady way.
People are looking at Liu Xin'an's face and throwing an olive branch, what qualifications do they have to make decisions for Liu Xin'an.
And if Liu Xin'an or Bae Joo-hyun refuses, it's easy to say, but if they refuse, it will be known... That's the real trouble.
At this time, Bae Joo-hyun gave them the initiative again.
Well... It seems that so many years of artist career have also made Bae Joo-hyun grow a lot, this girl who was always timid and shy when she first debuted has also changed and become a one-sided existence, and has even learned to force the company to express her position... Li Xiuman couldn't help but sigh.
As for Bae Joo-hyun herself...
In fact, she didn't think about it that much at all, she just felt that she didn't know how to make a good decision about these invitations.
"I heard that you are planning to have a banquet for Liu Xin'an in the afternoon, right?"
Li Xiuman, who has always been quiet, finally spoke.
There is a bit of a smile in the old voice, and the feeling of kindness makes it easy for people to take off their guard.
"Yes, there is no itinerary for the afternoon, so we would like to thank Mr. Liu Xin'an, who gave us the opportunity to invite us to the dinner of the Consulate General, can we do this?"
"Of course you can, just right, you can also get along well with this opportunity, aren't you in a particularly close relationship?"
Being ridiculed like this by Li Xiuman made Bae Zhuhyun very embarrassed, she bowed her head in embarrassment, and apologized honestly: "I'm sorry, Teacher Li Xiuman." ”
"Ah, it's okay, you're also at the age when it's time to fall in love, it's normal, just take this opportunity to thank him for the company, and the company is also thanks to him for his care this time."
"Okay, I see, I'll tell him on your behalf."
"Hmm... In terms of endorsement, the company means that it is best to listen to Mr. Liu Xin'an's advice to choose which ones to accept, which will be better for your future development. ”
Li Xiuman's words made Pei Zhuhyun stunned, no matter how nervous she was, she could hear the gestures and inquiries in Li Xiuman's words.
With the character of an old fox like Li Xiuman, he would not normally hand over the initiative so easily, but the funny thing is that he mistook Pei Zhuhyun's confusion for the other party's forced palace...
So he didn't hide his true intentions anymore.
The nervousness of seeing the leader has also dissipated most of the time with the chat, and gradually, Bae Joo-hyun has returned to his usual steady side.
After realizing that the initiative was actually in the hands of herself and Liu Xin'an, Pei Zhuhyun suddenly felt that the old man with an old face in front of her was not as afraid as she had been.
She lowered her head slightly, not exposing her mentality change to Li Xiuman and Li Chengzhu, and after being quiet for a few seconds, she did not continue to stay on this topic, but turned the topic to another problem that she urgently needed to solve.
"Mr. Li Xiuman, and the chairman of the board, my relationship with Xin'an has been known to many people, so I want to take the initiative to disclose my relationship with Xin'an with fans, I don't know if the company can agree with my decision?"
After speaking, Bae Joo-hyun looked up at the two in front of him, but the solemn scene imagined by Bae Joo-hyun did not appear, on the contrary, Li Xiuman and Lee Sung-joo who heard her request both smiled.
"Hmm... When you meet an object you like.,And it's such a good object.,Of course, you should be happy to share it with fans.,The company doesn't have the right to stop you.,It's your freedom.,If you need the company's help at that time.,You can also ask the company for it.。 ”
Lee Sung-joo's words made Bae Joo-hyun wonder if he had a problem with his ears.
It's S-M!
On the first day of her employment, Li Xiuman once lectured them that it is an extremely disqualified thing for artists to fall in love!
Even if you talk about it, you must not expose it to your fans.
This is what Li Xiuman personally said at that time.
How... Is this standard suddenly more flexible?
She couldn't help but look at Li Xiuman, who personally lectured them back then.
And this old man is worthy of being a "tyrant" who has been in power for many years in S-M, even if Li Chengzhu, who is next to him, personally said the words that slapped him in the face, his expression has never changed in the slightest.
Deter?
No kidding.
He couldn't wait to announce this matter on the S-M official website in the form of an announcement.
Just announcing the intimacy between the two at the banquet has already given S-M so many opportunities, if this relationship is made public later... He couldn't have imagined the opportunity that would come with it.
As for the fan dissatisfaction that Bae Joo-hyun is worried about...
That's really not a problem.
"In terms of fans, you don't have to worry too much, the company will cooperate with you and Liu Xin'an, and Liu Xin'an's mother is also from our country, if you are with him, you should not be rejected by too many fans."
Li Xiuman slowly opened his mouth and showed the company's attitude.
The public relationship can still be supported by the company so strongly, and among the artists in all Korea, it is estimated that there is only one exception for Bae Joo-hyun.
“... Will the company support us? ”
Li Xiuman nodded, he clasped his hands to his chest, with a smile on his face: "Actually, if you and that Mr. Liu Xin'an can really go on for a long time, it will be a good thing for you and the company." ”
———
The perspective switched to Liu Xin'an's side.
After breakfast, Liu Xin'an went to the Consulate General to visit several leaders who entertained him this time, and of course, he did not forget to talk to Dai Zhiyuan for a while.
On weekdays, Dai Zhiyuan was still busy as a cultural consul, but Dai Zhiyuan happened to be fishing when Liu Xin'an came over.
"I'll withdraw to Seoul in a while, remember to contact me when you come to Seoul on business, and I'll invite you to dinner with Zhu Hyun."
"Not staying in Busan for a few more days?"
"I'll have to cut the video when I go back." Liu Xin'an patted the camera in his bag, and he didn't forget the purpose of "water video" this time.
From yesterday's admission to the filming of the details in various venues behind, he has taken a lot of photos.
Not... Of course, when the time comes, he will delete all the scenes involving Bae Joo-hyun and them.
In fact, it's okay not to delete it, anyway, they're ready to make it public, and when the time comes, the video will be sent out a few days before it is released.
"Remember to send it to me first after you finish editing the video, I'll go through it for you, and then you can send it out."
Liu Xinan grinned: "Don't worry, being able to pass the trial with you doesn't mean that Xiaopo Station can pass the trial." ”
“... Is it so real? ”
"That's right, but I'll definitely send you a copy, and you can help me see it when the time comes, and if there are any texts that I said wrong, you tell me."
After all, Liu Xin'an is not a relevant staff member here, and there will inevitably be some errors in his paraphrase.
Although most sailors will certainly not see these mistakes, it is always a good thing to be rigorous.
"No problem, but when you shoot the video, Erin and the others should also appear together, in this regard... How are you going to fix it, cut it out? ”
"Look at the release time of the video, you also know that Zhu Hyun and I are going to make it public, and it is estimated that it will be this time."
"Hmm... It's okay, if nothing else, you and Erin will have no less contact with us next year, don't worry about making it public, we will cooperate with you! ”
Dai Zhiyuan patted Liu Xin'an on the shoulder and gave Liu Xin'an an encouraging look.
Liu Xinan was stunned, he didn't seem to understand the meaning of this sentence too much.
"What do you mean that the number of contacts will not be less next year?"
"Well, don't you know?"
"Know what?"
Dai Zhiyuan was deeply surprised by Liu Xin'an's confusion, he thought Liu Xin'an knew about it.
"Next year is going to be a very special year."
"A special vintage?"
Dai Zhiyuan raised his eyebrows and said word by word: "Huaxia and Goryeo established diplomatic relations in 1992, and next year..."
"30th anniversary?!" Liu Xin'an finally reacted to what Dai Zhiyuan wanted to say, and he opened his mouth in surprise to say this special year.
Dai Zhiyuan also nodded with a smile, and then his eyebrows danced: "When the two of you make it public, you two will be the most famous transnational couple in recent years, in such a critical period..."
Dai Zhiyuan said very cleverly, he didn't say anything, and it seemed that he had said everything.
Liu Xin understood with peace of mind, he breathed a long sigh of relief and nodded reassuringly.
———
The perspective is drawn back to Bae Joo-hyun again.
"For a long time?" Bae Joo-hyun didn't understand the meaning of these words too much, she looked at Li Xiuman puzzled, and asked out loud.
Li Xiuman did not have the idea of concealment, he opened his mouth in a deep voice, and explained Pei Zhuhyun's confusion: "Next year is the 30th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between our country and China, and a series of activities will be carried out at that time. ”
"Then I'll talk to Xin'an..."
"Yes, as the most famous transnational couple of the recent generation, if nothing else, you will be at the center of this event."
Bae Joo-hyun was really surprised by this message this time, she pursed her lips, desperately held back her excitement, and continued to remain silent.
"That's why the company supports us?"
"All in all... You can make it public that the company's development focus will also be on Red Velvet next year, so you don't have to worry too much about the reaction of fans, and..."Li Xiuman smiled like an old fox, his eyes behind his black-rimmed glasses narrowed into a slit, and said slowly, "Huaxia will definitely support you very much." ”
Boycott the local fans in Goryeo, how many fans can Red Velvet have in Goryeo?
This time, fans on the Huaxia side contributed nearly seventy percent of the album sales, even if the worst really happened, and in this special period, just relying on the help of the Huaxia side, Red Velvet will not worry about the popularity throughout the next year.
Moreover, in terms of public opinion control, they S-M are professional.
With their cooperation with all parties, it is not difficult to get fans to support Bae Joo-hyun and Yoo Shin-an.
"That's right..."
"So, Erin, when are you going to announce this good news to your fans?"
Bae Joo-hyun was silent, frowning and thinking deeply.
