star of the peninsula

What a good result! Chen Chen could even be sure that the cube was seriously injured here!
At this point in the original timeline, Hong Seung-sung had already regained control of Cube Entertainment, so why did it turn out like that later? Now it all makes sense!

Just when the company was stabilized and its internal affairs were in order, a huge natural disaster struck. All plans were destroyed and at least half of the cost paid was wasted. The entire Cube Entertainment returned to an even worse situation overnight.

Hong Shengcheng had to take the blame for this major "decision-making mistake", so he was squeezed out of the company for the second time.

Oh, now everything fits together, even the LIGHTSUM.

Hong Seung-sung, who was kicked out, started producing LIGHTSUM from then on. After completing the production and sending the girls to debut, he also actively tried to return to Cube Entertainment.

But after a few years of chaos, Cube Entertainment was in ruins and could never return to the Cube Entertainment that Boss Hong had in mind, so Hong Shengcheng finally sold all his shares and exited the market in disgrace.

Now it's completely connected. Even if Hong Shengcheng himself traveled back through time, he would have to say that Chen Chen's speculation was correct!
"Alas, it's fate. When people are unlucky, there's really nothing you can do."

Chen Chen pieced the fragments together to form a story and read it, and in the end he could only sigh.

However, the ending of Cube Entertainment this time should be a little better. If nothing unexpected happens, it will fall into the hands of C headquarters.

……

"Oppa, how did you feel when you participated in this year-end music festival for the first time?"

Backstage at the "SBS Gayo Daejeon", Chen Chen was unsurprisingly being interrogated by the girls.

"I don't feel anything special." Chen Chen pretended to be calm. "After all, from the middle of the year to the end of the year, I have gone from a relatively unknown newcomer to a very popular star. There is no need to be excited about performing in this kind of occasion."

"That's right." Zhang Yuanying counted on her fingers for Chen Chen, "A big star on variety shows, a leader among singers, and a super newcomer among producers. Oppa was so amazing back then."

"You don't have to list my past so clearly." Chen Chen was a little embarrassed. "It's all in the past. It's like showing off when you bring it up suddenly. That's not good."

“But you’re the only one in the company who can be promoted.” Choi Ye-na added, “Although there are seniors like Seohyun and Suzy, their experience as idols or just debuted is the achievements of other companies.”

"Hey." Chen Chen suddenly had an idea, "You can talk about Sakura, the senior of AKB48."

"Ah! Oppa~" Miyawaki Sakura's aggrieved voice immediately sounded beside him, "Why are you blaming me? My experience is nothing compared to Oppa's legend."

"I mentioned your experience because you have experience that you can teach everyone, so that we can all learn together." Chen Chen said seriously: "What's the use of my experience? Can you learn it? Forget about you, how many people in the entire Korean entertainment industry can learn from me?"

"So, it's useless to look at me, you have to look at the people around you who are within your reach." Chen Chen concluded, "TWICE, Red Velvet, AKB48, they are all people you can learn from, so just study hard."

"Oppa, what you said is very true, but why does it sound uncomfortable?" Zhang Yuanying asked curiously, "Is it because Oppa's attitude is naturally full of pride?"

"It has nothing to do with pride. It's because I'm too far away from you and you feel the cold. After all, it happened a few years ago." Chen Chen snorted, "Did any of you want to be an idol because of my songs? No."

"Me!" Choi Ye Na raised her hand high, "I have been a fan of Oppa since I was born!"

"Get out of here!" Chen Chen rolled his eyes. "Love Scenery was released in 2015. You're almost in high school!"

"Ah, LOVE SCENARIO. It sounds good even now."

"I still listen to it occasionally. How about you?"

"I will listen to it too. After all, it will appear on the hot list from time to time. Once it appears, I can't help but click in to listen to a few words."

"But I always feel weird when I see Oppa's name on the list. It's not that I don't like it or anything, but I just feel a little uncomfortable."

"I know, I know. You feel like the list doesn't deserve Oppa's name, right?" "Yes, yes, that's right! When you see it, you feel like... ah? Our Oppa sang a song? That's the feeling."

"..."

Unexpectedly, the girls started chatting on their own as soon as a topic was randomly brought up, and Chen Chen couldn't get a word in at all.

But that’s good too, so I can just sneak away and go watch the rehearsal.

Pulling his clothes, touching his belly, Chen Chen walked out with big strides.

……

"Hey, come and watch our rehearsal, brother-in-law~"

Park Soo-young, who was waiting for rehearsal, saw Chen Chen at a glance and greeted him with a smile.

"Well, it's too noisy inside, so I came here to get some fresh air." Chen Chen gave a reason casually, and pointed out to her, "You're causing trouble for you, Zhu Xuan, by calling me brother-in-law outside. Do you understand?"

"There are no outsiders here, we are all family." Park Soo-young stuck out his tongue and changed the subject, "Oppa, have you listened to our new song? What do you think?"

"It's hard to judge. You guys are just showing off your skills. After the show, you still want to show off your abilities." Chen Chen snorted, "But you also saw that the market reaction was not very good. All we can say is that there are gains and losses."

"Okay, you guys just rehearse well. I'll find a place to squat and be quiet for a while."

Without giving Park Soo-young a chance to continue speaking, Chen Chen headed towards his target.

At the end of 2019, the SBS Gayo Daejeon and Red Velvet's rehearsal, these three factors combined to become something Chen Chen had to do, to save Son Seungwan.

Although falling would most likely not happen again because of Chen Chen's influence, it was not particularly troublesome to come over and take a look and add insurance. Chen Chen also did not want to end up being unable to save someone because he was afraid of trouble.

He pinched his clothes and patted his belly. He wore several layers of soft clothes specially today. Although Chen Chen wanted to laugh because of the heat, he felt confident now.

"Red Velvet rehearsal begins, all units get ready~"

A long sound from the on-site staff made Chen Chen's heart tense.

"Please step back a little, be careful not to get hurt by the lift."

The staff also kindly reminded Chen Chen.

Chen Chen just waved his hand and asked him to move away without saying anything.

Looking up and staring at Sun Shengwan on the lift platform, Chen Chen couldn't care about anything else at the moment.

Phew~ Chen Chen suddenly laughed in his heart, thinking to himself, who would hope that Wendy would fall down? What a piece of shit!
Better not to drop it, better not to drop it~
Chen Chen started praying instead.

……

Prayers were useless. It was the clothes Chen Chen had secretly added and the explosive exercises he had done beforehand that saved everything, at the cost of two broken ribs.
