I am not an artist when I am reborn

Chapter 384 Planning three regions

Chapter [-] Planning Three Regions
  On October [-]th, S.M Entertainment’s new girl group after GFriend debuted under the spotlight.

IZONE's debut is different from the old traditional black and red route of S.M Entertainment that their predecessors followed. Instead, IZONE accumulated a large number of fans through talent shows and debuted as a group on this basis.

Each member had their own fans before their debut. Among them, the most popular Sakura Miyawaki has more fans than the other eleven members combined, making it a one-person group.

As early as the first half of the year, the recording of "I*ZONE" has been completed. During this period, (G)I-DLE has already debuted, and in just half a year, he has earned the title of "monster newcomer".

As the real ace of the talent show variety show "I*ZONE", IZONE's debut naturally attracted much attention.

At [-]pm Korean time, IZONE's debut song "La vie en rose" was released on time.

The members of IZONE were in the waiting room backstage at Inkigayo. It wasn't their turn to sing yet, so they were all gathered together.

Quan Eunbi sat in the middle, holding up her mobile phone, and the other members gathered around in singing costumes.

Twelve people were gathered together, and the crowd looked quite intimidating.

"Leaderboard leaderboard!"

Quan Eunfei clicked on the music ranking list, and the next moment, the girls opened their eyes in disbelief.

"second?!!"

"second!"

"impossible!"

"Big hair!"

"what's going on?!"

There were exclamations everywhere, and the girls were all shocked by the ranking of their debut song.

"Yesterday Ye Na Oni said it would be difficult for us to make the list." Kim Min Joo patted his chest and looked at Choi Ye Na and said.

"Yes, I really said that I didn't expect them to be on the list!" Cui Ruina nodded repeatedly. She really thought they wouldn't be on the list.

"Look at something else, look at something else!" Zhang Yuanying urged.

Quan Eunbi opened another music website.

What comes into view is...

No.1.

"Wow!!!"

"Don't worry, don't worry!" Quan Enfei suppressed her excitement and opened other music websites.

After checking one by one, I finally returned to the original melon list. After refreshing...

"Our eight lists are all number one..." Quan Eunbi looked up at the members dreamily.

As soon as these words came out, the lounge exploded with disbelief written all over the members' faces.

Ranked first among the eight domestic rankings in South Korea!

A new girl group, this is something GFriend had never achieved back then!
  At the same time, S.M company’s new building, marketing department.

Su Jinxing did not go to the singing venue, but was in the company's marketing department watching the real-time data after IZONE's debut music source was launched.

"President, the statistics are out. It ranks first among the eight domestic charts, and it also ranks first on the overseas Kpop charts!"

(In reality, it was November [-]st, and it was No. [-] on the eight charts plus No. [-] on the overseas Kpop charts. In addition, the No. [-] song at that time was IU's "BBIBBI".)
  The marketing director came to Su Jinxing with a smile on his face and said, holding the data form.

Su Jinxing reached out and took the data form and looked at the data.

Being able to overtake IU and Lee Ji-eun's "BBIBBI" to reach the top spot is still a bit reluctant based on the quality of this song, but considering IZONE's super popularity, there is nothing wrong with it.

This is the norm in the traffic era. Works are no longer the real decisive factor. Popularity is the absolute core.

In the past, there were many cases where songs led others, but in this era, it is the norm for people to lead songs.

"After the singing session, arrange a good restaurant and take the children to have a big meal." Su Jinxing said to the director of the newly established IZONE office behind him.

"Guilty." Director IZONE was also very happy. He could be regarded as a disguised form of "the mother is more valuable than the son."

The more popular the group he is responsible for, the higher his status will be.

"President, do you want to come over tonight?" Director IZONE asked.

"I won't go there." Su Jinxing raised his watch and looked at the time. "The data will continue to be monitored and will be summarized and reported to the Board Secretary's Office every three days."

"Inside!"

After Su Jinxing finished explaining, he turned and left the marketing department.

We walked all the way to the parking lot and got in the car.

Lao Cui started the car and drove towards Incheon Airport.

"President, the route application has been approved. We can take off at any time between seven and nine o'clock." Secretary Li said to Su Jinxing while sitting in the co-pilot.

"Yeah." Su Jinxing nodded casually, "Is this approval going to be in Shanghai or in the north?"

"Northern Territory, those people are all in Northern Territory. They have contributed some efforts to prevent you from having to fly to Northern Territory again after landing in Shanghai." Secretary Li replied.

Su Jinxing nodded.

The private jet he purchased was not the Gulfstream recommended by LG Chairman Choi, but the Bombardier Global Express XGS, which has deep ties with China. The customized price was US$[-] million, which was about two small goals.

This private jet is usually parked at Incheon Airport and is regularly maintained by Bombardier professionals. It only flies routes between China and South Korea.

Su Jinxing has never been to Europe and the United States, and all the company's business is done by Min Xizhen. He never goes to Europe and the United States. He only flies directly to China for related business.

This time, he had to fly to China to discuss a business that was closely related to the Korean Opinion Association. It was related to the restriction of Korea, and Su Jinxing needed to make the trip in person.

Private planes are not something you can fly if you want. Low-altitude aircraft like helicopters are another matter.

Every time a private jet flying at medium to high altitudes takes off, it needs to contact the relevant department responsible for the route. However, Su Jinxing's private jet's China-South Korea route needs to be coordinated with the domestic Civil Aviation Administration every time. , to avoid route conflicts.

South Korea's Civil Aviation Administration doesn't care. Every transnational private jet is registered and can take off when it wants.

In this country, even if a passenger plane is about to take off, it will give way to a private jet.

Just let Su Jinxing know in advance when he will fly, and there is no need to apply.

Incheon Airport.

The car drove directly into the airport and all the way to the airport take-off area.

This Bombardier Global Express XGS is particularly small and delicate compared to the surrounding Boeing passenger planes.

"Hello, President Su."

As soon as Su Jinxing got off the bus, the captain and the flight attendant came to greet him.

"Where's Captain Li?" Su Jinxing raised his eyebrows, looking at this unfamiliar face and asked doubtfully.

"I am Jiang Chenghuan, your second captain. Captain Li has something to take off today, so I will check in for you." Captain Jiang said with a smile.

Su Jinxing nodded. He knew this, but Captain Li had always flown the plane. He had never seen Captain Jiang.

The flight attendant has not changed, she is still the beautiful stewardess.

Su Jinxing glanced at her.

"Chief steward, I hope your flight attendant won't have too many strange thoughts this time."

"President Nim, please rest assured that the cabin crew selected this time will never happen again!" Crew Chief Quan bowed to Su Jinxing and said.

Secretary Li smiled silently from behind.

Last time, a stewardess tried to have a relationship with the president because she was smart.

Don't you want to see who the president is?

It's really ridiculous that he wants to take advantage of this opportunity to rise to power when he doesn't have any beautiful women around him.

Su Jinxing nodded casually and walked up the steps to board the plane.

Secretary Li followed Su Jinxing onto the plane, and he would also follow him on this business trip.

After boarding the plane, Su Jinxing sat on the sofa, took out his phone and put it on the table.

Secretary Li then sat opposite Su Jinxing, then opened his briefcase, took out the documents inside and placed them in front of Su Jinxing. At this time, several more people came in at the boarding gate, including Su Jinxing's assistant and Can Nan's accompanying bodyguard.

"President nim!" The six people bowed to Su Jinxing in greeting.

Su Jinxing responded without raising his head and looked through the documents.

The few of them didn't say anything to disturb Su Jinxing. They each found a seat and sat down, waiting for the plane to take off.

This time I returned to China to talk with relevant leaders about opening up the three regions.

Don't even think about the mainland. Su Jinxing doesn't have the nerve to ask for open permissions from the mainland. But judging from the current tone of the opening up of permissions in the three regions, there is a chance.

If I can win over Su Jinxing, I will definitely try my best to win over him.

The S.M company's group Zaosan has the authority to perform activities in the Zaosan area. It has not stopped in the past two years and has been taking advantage of the privileges brought by Su Jinxing to perform.

Su Jinxing went there this time to discuss this business on behalf of Han Ouhui.

If it can be negotiated, it will be a more important step forward for the Korean idol group to deepen its influence on the Korean Wave market, and it will also strengthen his control over the Korean idol group.

Without him, Han Ouhui will change and strengthen the relationship of interests. In this way, his position will be more stable.

In addition to the Korean Wave, there are also issues such as the release of Korean movies and the censorship of Korean dramas, but these matters are not the main purpose of this cooperation.

"The Penthouse" has just been launched, and Sunny Entertainment's label of "people are stupid and have a lot of money" in the film and television industry has not yet been removed. It is easy for others to pick off the peach when talking about this kind of cooperation. Su Jinxing will not do this kind of taking advantage of others.

This time, as long as we can talk about the Han Ou Club, it will be considered a success.

The flight attendant came in and told Su Jinxing in a gentle voice that the plane was about to take off.

Put down the documents in your hands and look out the window at the blue sky of Incheon.

[Hope everything goes well. ]
  ……

A prison district in Seoul.

Kim Taeyeon was carrying a fruit basket and walking in this clean but depressing corridor under the guidance of the warden (anti-harmony).

"Open the door," the warden said to the jailer.

"Inside!" The jailer took out the key and quickly opened the iron door of the prison area.

"Ms. Jin, please come this way."

"Yeah." Kim Taeyeon nodded.

"Woman?" At this time, a prisoner in the room discovered Kim Taeyeon.

"Hahaha, a woman actually came in!"

The sound of whistling suddenly sounded.

The warden's face darkened and he gave the jailer a look.

The jailer understood instantly and immediately opened the iron door, and then the prisoners' wails could be heard.

"Ms. Jin, I'm sorry for frightening you," the warden apologized.

"It's okay." Kim Taeyeon looked indifferent and shook her head to indicate that it was okay.

"Thank you for your understanding, please come this way." The warden breathed a sigh of relief, his attitude becoming more humble.

Going all the way deep, we stopped in front of a spacious room.

Kim Taeyeon noticed that the door was not locked, which meant that the door could be opened from the inside.

The warden stepped forward and opened the door himself.

"Ms. Jin, please go in. I'm right outside. If you need anything, call me anytime."

"Thank you." Kim Taeyeon nodded her thanks and walked in.

As soon as I entered the room, I suddenly realized that unlike the crowded rooms I had seen before, this room was not only spacious, but also fully equipped with a TV, computer, and even a refrigerator and a wine cabinet.

It didn't feel like a prison to Kim Taeyeon, but a small residential house.

A man with black and white hair is sitting at the desk, writing something with his back to Kim Taeyeon.

Even though she hadn't seen him for a long time, Kim Taeyeon still recognized him when she saw this figure from behind.

"Teacher Lee Soo Man."

The man who was writing at the desk stopped when he heard this, turned around, and stood up, revealing a face that was older than before, but full of energy.

"Long time no see, Taeyeon."

Kim Taeyeon bowed slightly.

Li Xiuman also smiled and bowed.

The two of them greeted each other like this.

"Please sit down."

Kim Taeyeon put the fruit basket on the table and sat down on the sofa.

"Is there something wrong with President Su?" Li Xiuman asked.

Su Jinxing came back to visit him occasionally, but this time it was Kim Taeyeon who had never been here before.

"Well, he went to China to discuss the opening of the three regions to Korean idol groups. Korean idol groups"

Lee Soo Man raised her hand to stop Kim Taeyeon's words.

"I'm not isolated from the world." Li Xiuman smiled and took out his mobile phone and put it on the table.

Kim Taeyeon was speechless, but it was reasonable.

"President Su is still so powerful. Now that he's gone, there should be no suspense about this cooperation." Li Xiuman said with emotion.

Kim Taeyeon did not express her position, but she actually had similar thoughts to Lee Soo Man.

"The company's new girl group debuted today?"

"Inside, the name is IZONE."

"It's great." Lee Soo Man said with a kind smile on his face, "After I left, S.M has been prospering, and young children are also debuting one after another. The entire company is thriving, and it is much better than when I was here."

Kim Taeyeon didn't say anything, she thought so too.

"How long is your sentence?" Kim Taeyeon asked.

"After one and a half years, the application for commutation of sentence has been submitted. Maybe I can go out next year." Li Xiuman said with a smile.

After being there for so long, he figured it out.

What he did was actually leading S.M to its demise.

And Su Jinxing is S.M's savior.

The "Longchang Enlightenment" during this period also made him understand that old people should do what old people should do and hand over the power of the times to young people.

He was blinded by profit before, but this period of thinking allowed him to see the whole picture clearly.

Ever since his mentality changed, his chances of winning have been decreasing.

As for Su Jinxing, his goal was very clear from the beginning.

He was not wronged.

"Everyone in the company is waiting for your return." Kim Taeyeon said politely.

Lee Soo Man smiled slightly, knowing that this was Kim Taeyeon's polite words.

Su Jinxing may be the only person in S.M Company who really wants him to come back.

"Tell me about you." Lee Soo Man looked at Kim Taeyeon and said, compared to GFriend and IZONE, Girls' Generation was the child he watched "grow up".

"Inside."

"us……"
