Chapter 356: Reason
The day after returning to Seoul, Lin Yi received a call from Kim Jisoo asking him to meet at Y.Y Cafe in the evening.
In the evening, Lin Yi came to the coffee shop on time to make an appointment, and as soon as he entered the door, he saw Li Shaoxi wearing coffee shop clothes at the checkout counter ordering coffee for customers.
After she was done, Lin Yi stepped forward and looked at her in surprise, "Why are you still working here? Didn't Starship Entertainment already arrange a job for you?"
If Lin Yi remembers correctly, he has already asked Li Shaoxi to do some modeling work, and also filmed the MV of some songs, it should be said that she has now stepped into the entertainment industry with one foot.
"President, I like working here very much, and I will leave when Starship Entertainment has more work in the future." Li Shaoxi responded in a whisper, in fact, she insisted on working in a coffee shop, in addition to the fact that the work here is relatively easy, she also wanted to see Lin Yi more, in Starship Entertainment, she didn't have much chance to meet him.
"Oh, doesn't there a conflict in time?"
"No conflict, if I have a modeling job, I will ask for leave in advance."
"That'll do."
Lin Yi looked around after speaking, but he didn't find Kim Jisoo on the first floor, so he turned to Li Shaoxi and said, "You make me a cup of Blue Mountain coffee and send it to the second floor."
"Okay, I'll send it right away."
After Lin Yi went upstairs, Li Shaoxi happily went to make coffee, she has been working here for a long time, and she has also learned how to make coffee, this time she wants Lin Yi to taste her craft.
After walking up to the second floor, Lin Yi saw Kim Ji-so, who was chatting with a girl sitting next to her over coffee.
At this time, Kim Jisoo also saw Lin Yi, so she stood up happily and waved to him, and the girl sitting next to her also turned her head to look at the staircase.
Lin Yi only saw the appearance of this girl clearly, she was still a relatively beautiful little girl, and her age should be about the same as Kim Jiso.
As Lin Yiyou sat opposite the two of them in the past, Kim Ji-so smiled and said, "Oba, this is my trainee friend I mentioned to you some time ago at YG, her name is Cho Weijuan."
"Wei Juan, this is Lin Yi Oba I told you, he will help with your affairs." Kim Jisoo said to her friend again.
"Hello, Lin Yi Oba." Cao Weijuan stood up and bowed 90 degrees, but Kim Jisoo had already told her Lin Yi's identity in advance, this was the first time she had met such a big man face to face, and she was very nervous and curious.
"Well, hello, you're welcome, sit down."
After Cao Weijuan sat down, she began to look at Lin Yi secretly, she had heard this name when she was a trainee in YG, but at that time she only thought that Lin Yi was just a handsome big boy, but she didn't expect to be a big man at such a young age, which somewhat broke her usual thoughts.
At this time, Li Shaoxi also brought the coffee, looked at the two beautiful girls opposite Lin Yi, and couldn't help but compare himself in his heart.
After Li Shaoxi put down the coffee and left, Kim Jisoo knew that his friend was not easy to speak, so he took the initiative to speak for her:
"Oba, Vijuan, she has now terminated her contract with YG, I talked to her, and she still wants to be a trainee."
"Oh, how old are you?" Lin Yi looked at Cao Weijuan and asked.
"I'm '97 and I'm 15 years old."
"Only 15 years old? How many years have you been a trainee at YG Entertainment?" Lin Yi thought that this girl was the same age as Kim Jiso, but he didn't expect to be two years younger than her.
"It's been more than three years."
"You joined an entertainment company at such a young age, so why did YG Entertainment terminate your contract with you?" Lin Yi didn't believe that YG Entertainment fired a trainee who had been training for more than 3 years because of any love problem.
You must know that it costs a lot of money every year to train a trainee, otherwise why would it take several years for a trainee to pay off the company's training fees after their debut.
"Me.
。」 Xiao Weijuan didn't know how to answer this question
。
In fact, she didn't know the reason for this, she did have an affair with a male trainee of YG company before, but the two were warned by the company's director before they could confirm their relationship, so she drew a line with the male trainee, and she thought it was nothing, but she didn't expect the company to fire her in the end.
Kim Jisoo was also a little embarrassed at this time, but in fact, the reason for this may only be known to YG president Yang Hyun-seok and her.
Kim Jisoo actually went to Yang Hyunshuo alone before looking for Lin Yi, after all, she also called him Uncle Yang in private, and she thought that she could talk about Cao Weijuan's matter.
But Yang Hyun-suk's earnest words to Kim Ji-so directly made her speechless.
At that time, this sentence said: "Jisoo, you also know that your father and I have known each other for a long time, and there will definitely be one of you in the future company's girl group debut, but you yourself should also know that with your current strength, you will not be able to reach the debut level. Now, whether it's Kim Ji-ni and Lisa, who joined the company before you, or Park Chaeyoung, who joined the company after you, their strength is much stronger than yours, and if you want to make your debut in a group with them, what do you think you can do best?"
Before Kim Jisoo could answer, Yang Hyun Suk continued: "It's your appearance, the company can position you as the façade, and often the façade of a girl group, fans are very tolerant, you don't need to sing and dance too high. As for Cao Weijuan, her positioning actually coincides with you, and to be honest, her singing and dancing level is better than yours. In terms of appearance, it's not bad to compare with you, and there are no two facades in a group, either she goes or you go, so what do you say I should choose?"
"But.
。」 Kim Jisoo wanted to say something, but when the words came to his lips, he couldn't say anything, and it was impossible for YG to launch two girl groups in a short period of time, and the only girl group in the company now is 2ne1, which was launched four years ago.
Kim Jisoo also knows that in fact, it is not a bad thing for YG to let Wei Juan leave now, and she can go to other entertainment companies to develop while she is still young.
Yang Hyun Suk looked at his good friend's daughter, and there was something he didn't say in his heart, in fact, choosing Kim Jisoo to stay in YG was not all because he knew her father.
The main reason for this is that Yang Hyun-seok found that Kim Ji-so actually had a very good relationship with Lin Yi, which made him have a lot of plans in his heart, and he wanted to pull in the relationship with Lin Yi from Kim Ji-so to achieve some of his own goals.
Lin Yi looked at the two girls in front of him with a somewhat tangled face, he could understand why Cao Weijuan had such an expression, it may be that there is some personal privacy that is not easy to say.
But why is Kim Jisoo like this? Lin Yi was quite surprised, he couldn't figure out what the reason was here, could it be that she knew some inside story, and it was not easy to say it now?
"Okay, what are you going to do now? Do you want to join an entertainment company?"
Lin Yi didn't plan to delve into it, this matter was originally a trivial matter for him, whether it was joining Starship or joining other entertainment companies controlled by KaKao Group, it was just a matter of Lin Yi's words.
"Well, I still want to make my debut."
Xiao Weijuan raised her head and looked at Lin Yi's eyes full of hope.
"Okay, so what company do you want to go to?"
"Can I choose my own?" Xiao Weijuan's surprised voice became louder, when was it so easy to enter an entertainment company.
"Well, that's not all, tell me which one you want to go to?? JYP?」
Cao Weijuan shook her head when she heard these two answers, she didn't want to go to these big entertainment companies now, she also heard that these major entertainment companies have begun to prepare for new girl groups, she is a little girl with no background, and she doesn't know when she will be able to debut when she goes to these companies.
"Lin Yi Oba, I want to go to Starship or CUBE, is that okay?"
Cao Weijuan's first choice in her heart is to go to Starship Entertainment, although Starship Entertainment now has a girl group right away
It's about to debut, but Starship launched the girl group quickly, the last girl group EXID was only launched two years ago, and she is only 15 years old this year, and she will not be an adult in two years, so she can afford to wait.
"Starship?" Lin Yi turned his head to look at Kim Jisoo and gestured to her with his eyes, which means that you told her?
After Kim Jisoo saw Lin Yi's eyes, he nodded silently.
"Well, I'm a big fan of Starship Entertainment, and I have a couple of friends out there." Cao Weijuan hurriedly said.
"Okay, just think about it, you can take this and report to Starship."
Lin Yi took out a business card from his pocket and put it in front of Xiao Weijuan.
Cao Weijuan picked up the business card with both hands and bowed 90 degrees to Lin Yi happily.
"Thank you Lin Yi Oba, I will definitely work hard."
"Hmm."
。
。
。
Sending off the happy Cao Weijuan, Lin Yi and Kim Ji-so strolled in the direction of her dormitory.
"Jisoo, tell me why."
