I am not an artist when I am reborn

Chapter 310 Hallyu Idol Association
Chapter 20K-pop Idol Association
On June 16th, a piece of news ranked first on the hot search list on major search engines. The news also landed on the hot search list in search engines in other countries, and it climbed up at an extremely fast speed.

On the morning of June 16th, the founding ceremony of the "K-pop Idol Association" was successfully held at the Shilla Hotel in Seoul.

The "K-pop Idol Association" is led by industry leader SM Entertainment and officially established with the joint sponsorship of 27 companies including JYP Entertainment, Kakao Entertainment, Big Hit Entertainment, and Cube Entertainment.

The "Korean Wave Idol Association" focuses on planning the Korean Wave idol market, standardizing, modeling, and specializing the operation of the idol market, and carrying out planning model operations that are more in line with market needs while retaining the unique characteristics of Korean Wave idol culture. .

The 27 sponsor companies of the "K-pop Idol Association" will become the first batch of members of the Korean Idol Association. The Korean Idol Association pursues market unification, mutual benefit among members, and win-win cooperation.

"What we are doing is conducive to the long-term development of Korean idol culture. In the magnificent new era, the Korean idol culture market is facing new challenges. Innovation is our only way out, and the purpose of the Korean idol association is As a torch of K-pop idol culture, I will hold the torch forward on this innovative path and light the way for those who come after me.”

At the founding ceremony of the Korean Illusion Club, Mr. Su Jinxing, chairman of the Korean Illusion Club and chairman of the SM Entertainment Council, said so.

Mr. Moon Yongyeol, vice president of the Korean Composers Association, attended the founding ceremony of the Korean Ouple Association and had friendly talks with Mr. Su Jinxing, the president of the Korean Ouple Association.

This is the first summit meeting between the Korean Opup Club as a voluntary private business organization and an official entertainment organization.

During the meeting, Vice President Moon Yongyeol, on behalf of the Korean Composers Association, strongly praised the pioneering concept of the Korean Ouple Club and extended cooperation invitations to the 27 member companies of the Korean Oupup Club after the meeting.

After the meeting, at the press conference, Mr. Su Jinxing, then Chairman of the SM Entertainment Council and Chairman of the Korean Illusion Club, announced the establishment of the "Korean Wave Frontline" newspaper. The newspaper was jointly founded by the Korean Illusion Club and Sunny Capital, with a business scope of only It is limited to the entertainment field, focuses on reporting on Korean culture, does not participate in any political or economic reports, and always maintains a neutral stance.

……

The establishment of the Hallyu Idol Association and the Hallyu Frontline Newspaper has caused an uproar in the Korean entertainment field.

A coalition of 27 entertainment companies was led by SM, JYP and Kakao, the three upper-level companies in the pyramid.

SM Entertainment is already a mountain that weighs on all entertainment companies, and now it has created a Korean idol group. Apart from these 27 entertainment companies, how should other entertainment companies deal with themselves?

Although these 27 member companies are mostly small and medium-sized companies, it is too terrifying to be able to withstand the "high-level combat power".

The only leader in the industry, JYP, one of the old three, and Kakao Entertainment, one of the new three, not to mention Cube, which wears the same pants as SM, and Big Hit, which has been gaining momentum recently.

Together, these five companies already account for half of Kpop, not to mention there are 22 other small and medium-sized entertainment companies.

What do you mean?
The United Nations of Kpop?
What makes these non-joined entertainment companies think about the most is how the relevant departments approve it. Can this be passed?
But the fact is that not only did it pass, but it also created a culturally focused newspaper that claims to be always neutral and will never participate in political or economic discussions.

They just regarded this sentence as fart.

There is no neutral person in a newspaper. The butt of the management determines the position of the newspaper.Like a permanently neutral country, this sentence is just bullshit, used to fool fans.

Korean Opup Club, Hallyu Frontline...

The establishment of these two organizations caused even more waves than Su Jinxing's rise to power in SM.

Even a fool can see the development trend of Korean Occasion Club, which is a potential syndicate organization aiming for monopoly.

Compared with the merger, inclusion, and holding of trusts, this kind of market-making organization that forms an alliance through a few top companies in the same industry is obviously the predecessor of the syndicate monopoly organization.

(Korean chaebols are not the above two, but the Concern monopoly model. In our East Asian cultural circle, they are generally called chaebols. Brothers who are interested in the four major monopoly models can check it out. Korean chaebols are generally the Concern monopoly model. , which is very different from Western monopoly companies.)
Korean chaebols concentrate capital beyond the limits of a specific field through the parent company's complete control of its subsidiaries. This model is called the Concern Monopoly Model in the West.

Su Jinxing is a foreigner. He is seeking death if he wants to establish a Concern monopoly model in South Korea.Even the chaebol faction can't save him, because those who want him dead include the chaebol faction.

If he dared to do this, someone would discover a little bit of Su Jinxing's body tissue in the bullet the next day.

As for the cartel monopoly model, one of the four major monopoly models, its binding force is too low and its stability is very poor. The major members have a gentleman's agreement to achieve a monopoly.

This level of monopoly can be easily defeated by antitrust laws. This kind of cooperation cannot be called an alliance, as it is too loose.

Therefore, the only choices left to Su Jinxing were the two monopoly models of trust and syndicate.

Obviously, Korean Opup Club is the predecessor of the syndicate monopoly model.

It is true that only the syndicate monopoly model is the most friendly to foreigners taking power, but only relatively speaking.

With the establishment of the Korean Opup Club, even if we don’t know where Su Jinxing got so much support, the pressure on him from the Blue House will definitely not be small.

Everyone knows that the new commander-in-chief is hostile to the plutocrats. He can't touch these plutocrats with the Concern monopoly model, and he can't touch your syndicate, which is just getting started and has some signs of development?

Part of the reason why Korean chaebols are difficult to operate is their monopoly model. Among the four major monopoly models, the Concern Monopoly and Trust Monopoly implemented by Korean chaebols are the most stable. Even antitrust laws are difficult to touch this monopoly model. .

The syndicate monopoly is less stable in terms of stability. No matter how strong the alliance is, it is just an alliance. Compared with completely concentrated capital companies and trusts, it is still far behind.

Of course, it is much stronger than a cartel monopoly where a gentleman’s agreement comes together.

The Korean Pop Association is a Korean Wave organization led by SM Entertainment. All major member companies will participate in decision-making. In order to maintain stability, the organization's resolutions also emphasize the uniformity of pricing in all aspects of the market.

As the leader of SM, Su Jinxing took the lead in putting Kpop's most sought-after resources, namely producers, into the Korean Idol Club department, and other companies followed suit.

When goals are aligned, interests will also converge.

The draft of the Korean Opup Club is not complete and will be improved in the future, but Su Jinxing’s purpose of establishing it can be said to be very obvious.

Next, the pressure on the 27 companies will not be small.As the president of the Han Ou Club, Su Jinxing's pressure will only be greater.

But it's fine.

The syndicate monopoly model is not overbearing, and Cheong Wa Dae’s tolerance level will be relatively higher.

Among the four major monopoly models, trusts are the ones that everyone wants to fight.To put it bluntly, this monopoly model truly means that one company monopolizes the market and has sole power. How the market operates and how the price is set are all decided by that company.

This monopoly model, which looks like the exclusive power of the emperor in feudal society, is difficult for even a capital society to accept.

As for the remaining three, most of the Concern monopolies are family monopolies. Capital concentration beyond the limits of a certain field uses financial means to concentrate companies in various fields, forming an economy that seems to have no connection but is actually very stable. commonwealth.

A syndicate monopoly is a group of companies that come together to form an alliance and then elect a big brother.

The cartel is a gentleman's agreement, you can leave if you want.

Taking South Korea as an example, the official tolerance is basically in this order. Trust monopolies have the lowest tolerance, and they will kill you if you dare to do it.

Concern's monopoly is second, and the new commander's attitude towards this monopoly model is not much better than that of the trust monopoly. If you dare to make fun of it, you will die.

Therefore, Su Jinxing finally chose Syndicate.

If it doesn't work, the cartels can.

This is the subsequent development goal that Su Jinxing finally decided upon after much thought.

He doesn't want to guard SM's three-thirds of land.So he chose to go one step further.

Then, public opinion exploded.

Ordinary people were fine and didn't feel anything at all, just watching it as daily news.

Kpop fans are a little concerned about the establishment of a unified market, but they don’t know whether it will have any impact on their idols. There are those who support it, those who oppose it, and those who remain on the sidelines.

Others in the industry were confused and nervous.

I am deeply confused about the future and don't know where to go.

Only chaebols and a small group of people who have come into contact with chaebols have noticed the deep meaning behind Korean Occasions.

But that's all.

The establishment of a syndicate is not that simple. No matter how much we do, it is still limited to the Kpop field. If we want to transform it into a serious syndicate in the future, we will still have to face many problems.

Even Su Jinxing didn't know what he was doing.Everyone can see the tendency, but whether it can be achieved is still a matter of debate.

After all, monopoly is easy to say, but if you really want to achieve it, it may be a lifelong career.Su Jinxing himself didn't think he would succeed, so he would give it a try first.

From such a Korean idol society to a real syndicate organization, it requires at least three rounds of qualitative changes and expansion of the organization's scale. Where are we now?

The headquarters of the Hallyu Idol Association is next to the Qingtian Building. The office buildings where Qingtian Capital is located are two buildings in a row. Qingtian Capital bought its own building and renamed it Qingtian Building.

The office building next door originally housed some companies. To meet the needs of the establishment of Han Ou Club, major entertainment companies funded the purchase of this office building. The companies in the original office building moved into Qingtian Building at a lower price.

Anyway, Qingtian Capital can't use up so many floors, so it can rent it out at a lower price than next door. It doesn't worry that the original companies of the office building next door won't agree.

The first thing the K-Pop Idol Association did after its establishment in mid-June was the registration of artists from member companies.

The Korean Idol Club has been established. It has an official website, registration of idol information from member companies, registration of the association's producer list, etc.

For this reason, Su Jinxing went there personally to take charge. With Jin Yingmin and Min Xizhen taking charge of the company, Su Jinxing felt relieved.

The registration process for producers is very fast. Each company does not send out all employees, but only some producers. The total number of people is less than a hundred. Small companies do not have many serious producers at all, and most of them are SM.

SM Company's production department directly hired ten producers.

The registration and registration of idol information is much slower. Many groups are active, and it is impossible to register like a producer in a centralized manner. Registration is done every three days, and the registration has not been completed in half a month.

27 entertainment companies. Although those small companies are small, they still have their own artists, even though they are not famous.

Han Ouhui Building, top floor.

President's Office.

The layout is basically the same as Su Jinxing's offices at Qingtian Capital and SM Entertainment. I am used to offices like that. When the secretary asked for the design of Su Jinxing's office, he also designed it according to Su Jinxing's preferences.

As the president's secretary, it is necessary to have the ability to observe people's opinions and figure out the leaders' thoughts and preferences.

Su Jinxing is reviewing many documents in the office. Since the association is new, there is naturally a lot of work.

In other words, SM Entertainment has Min Hee Jin outside and Kim Young Min inside, so he doesn't need to worry about it.Otherwise, he would not be able to endure it at all as he holds three positions as president.

Now there are only Sunny Capital and Han Ouhui, and the affairs in these two places can still be tolerated.

dong dong dong.

There was a knock on the door, and Su Jinxing looked up.

"hello~~"

Su Jinxing looked at the visitor in surprise.

"How did you come?"

Lin Yuner walked in with a smile on her face.

"Come and register. I heard that you are in the association, so I stopped by to say hello." Lin Yuner stood in front of the desk and looked at Su Jinxing with a smile.

"sit down."

"Inside~"

Lin Yuner pulled out the chair and sat down.

"I haven't seen her for a while, she's beautiful again." Su Jinxing looked at Lin Yuner's face and said with a smile.

"Thank you, President, for your compliment." Lin Yuner stepped forward and said with a smile.

"Have you registered yet?"

"Well, idols and actors."

"Speaking of actors, wait until next month...on the [-]th. The resource statistics will be completed on the [-]th." Su Jinxing thought for a moment, "On the [-]th, you call Teacher Shangqing, and you all come over here to go to the film and television Resources look at the characters.”

"Then thank you, President." Lin Yuner blinked at Su Jinxing and responded with a smile.

"Well... let's take Zhuhyun with us."

Lin Yun'er smiled for a moment, then looked at Su Jinxing in surprise.

"Are you planning to let Aileen xi also become an actor?"

"I have a plan for a long time, but I just haven't found a suitable role. Take advantage of this opportunity, and you and Teacher Qing will bring her over to have a look. First, find a small supporting role to play."

Lin Yuner nodded after hearing this.

Su Jinxing is like this. If you don't know how to take the role, you'll be given the lead role. Regardless of whether you are Jin Shaoqing or Bae Zhuhyun, just give me a supporting role to hone your acting skills.

　After thinking about it, Kang Cein's Korean chaebol model still cannot be implemented logically.But after writing about it, it felt strange not to write about a monopoly, so I decided to create a syndicate monopoly model.

　　Although in a strict sense, only Concern is a chaebol, but the Brotherhood Syndicate is also a monopoly organization, so it is not too much to call it a chaebol!
