Chapter 486 The Belonging of Whale Chifu
Chapter 196: The Belonging of Whale Chifu

"Senior, why didn't you stop them just now?"

After dinner, Su Jinxing and Jin Shaoqing walked hand in hand on the street.

Jin Shaoqing asked Su Jinxing a doubt he had had since eating.

"What's stopping them?" Su Jinxing asked with a smile.

"Take pictures. Wouldn't it be bad if we were photographed and posted online?"

"The more calm you are, the less afraid you are. If you post on Instagram, fans will soon know that you are in China, and I am also in China. Although it is inappropriate for us to appear together, fans will take the initiative to help us fight back against those doubts." Su Jinxing said with a smile.

"And if we feel guilty and don't let others take pictures, it will give people a sneaky feeling. Even if we really don't have anything to do with it, we still won't be able to tell clearly."

Jin Shaoqing blinked, is there such a thing?

"As long as there is no unified public opinion trend, we don't need to pay attention to it."

"Is that so?" Jin Shaoqing said, seemingly understanding.

Regarding the work of public opinion operation, she has experienced a lot over the years since her debut, but it would be too difficult for her to really understand the principles and then operate it.

"Let's go back to the hotel and plan our trip for tomorrow."

"Inside~~"

……

When Su Jinxing and Jin Shaoqing were traveling, time flew by, and the last week of 2020 came in the blink of an eye.

Through Min Xizhen's efforts, she successfully divided the concept into three parts. After sending it to Su Jinxing and getting his permission, Min Xizhen immediately convened a meeting with the heads of major member entertainment companies of the Korean Opup Club.

Meeting location: Conference room on the top floor of Han Ouhui Building.

When Min Xizhen came to the conference room, all the heads of major entertainment companies were already there.

This time Min Xizhen summoned them all for the purpose of bringing them all here. Everyone here has heard about it to some extent.

Min Xizhen submitted a development plan for the new girl group to the president in China. Just yesterday, the plan was approved by the president and started to be implemented.

This plan is not a production plan for two girl groups, but three!

The current SM company can only barely support one girl group, but it is absolutely impossible for two girl groups, not to mention the current situation where there are three girl groups waiting to be produced and debuted.

Now Min Xizhen's purpose of calling them here is most likely to find a production company for these three girl groups.

Some were interested, some were not, but all companies still sent representatives to attend the meeting to hear the specific plans first.

Min Xizhen glanced at the representatives of various companies present.

"They're all here, then I'll start right away." Min Xizhen sat down.

All the representatives present were accustomed to her vigorous and resolute actions.

This can be regarded as SM's consistent style nowadays, talk less nonsense and do more practical things.

"This time we will create three girl groups. The concept I created myself will be approved and named by the president. The three groups will adopt a bidding method to determine their operating companies at this meeting. The operating companies of these three groups We will have the right to select trainees from all member companies of the Korean Illusion Club, and the company to which the selected trainee belongs will not refuse without special reasons.”

"In addition, I will select IZONE members to join these three groups as popular representatives, and the selection will be decided by me, the group's operating company and SM."

"Do you understand everything?"

"Is it too harsh that trainees cannot be rejected without special reasons?" JYP's representative questioned.

"Yes, the trainees trained by our company will be selected if they do well. When the time comes, we will not have any candidates for the girl group." A representative from another company echoed.

"Regarding this point, what the president means is that trainees who are not for sale from each company will not participate in this event unless you are willing. Other trainees cannot be excluded without special reasons, but everyone can rest assured that the selected trainees will The company will be compensated by the operating company of the group, and the transaction will be conducted under the witness of Han Ouphui to ensure that both parties benefit as much as possible." Min Xizhen replied.

Strictly speaking, Han Ouhui is indeed Su Jinxing's boss, but on the surface, he still has to maintain due fairness.

Min Xizhen said so, so everyone had no choice but to agree.

"Now everyone can check the papers on the table."

Not many people moved. Before Min Xizhen arrived, they had already seen the concept of the three combinations.

"It seems that everyone has understood the situation." Min Xizhen said immediately after seeing this, "Then let's start the bidding for the first group now. The SM company I represent will not participate in the election of the three groups, but I will Lead the operational work of the three portfolios.”

"Representative Min means that you want to run three groups at the same time?" Representative Hybe asked in surprise.

"No." Min Xizhen shook her head slightly, "I will serve as the chief operating officer of the three groups. The entertainment company that succeeds in the bid needs to hand over the operation plans of the three groups to me. I will not interfere in the operation of the entertainment company that succeeds in the bid. , just put a name on it and get an operation plan.”

"Understood." Representative Hybe nodded, understanding what Min Xizhen meant.

"Then let's talk about the bidding method." Kakao Entertainment representative said lazily.

He was just here to go through the motions.

Running a girl group?

Their company is too lazy.

Min Xizhen glanced at him and then spoke.

"The bidding method is based on benefit sharing. These three combinations were created by me. I have put the concepts into the association. The way everyone bids is to choose how much of the combination's income to transfer to get the operating rights and concepts of the combination."

"The starting point is a point."

That's one percent.

"So start now?"

Crowds mean nothing.

"The first girl group to participate in the election is NewJeans. If you are interested, please let us know from company representatives."

All representatives who can attend this meeting have the right to make this decision. They do not need to report to the company and can directly raise their hands.

only……

The first person to raise their hands was the cube representative sitting next to the JYP representative. Some representatives who were about to raise their hands gave up the moment they saw the cube representative raising his hand.

Everyone knows whose will Cube Entertainment represents. He has raised his hand, so what else is there to say?

Ever since, a scene like this appeared in the huge conference room. The only company bidding for the first group NewJeans was Cube Entertainment.

"Since there is only one company, Cube Entertainment, let's directly bid successfully with a revenue share of one point. Do you have any opinions?"

No one said a word.

Min Xizhen handed the cube representative the core concept planning document about NewJeans in front of her.

"The bidding for the second combination LE SSERFIM will now begin."

Now a lot of people raised their hands.

NewJeans can't run for election, but you can't compete with us for the remaining two, right?

The concepts of LE SSERAFIM and IVE are both very good. After all, they are produced by Min Hee Jin. Get it first. Anyway, with Min Hee Jin's name behind the scenes, you can also choose members from IZONE to lead the team, so what else is there to say?

Just rush and that's it!

"There are a lot of people, so let's start with Hybe Entertainment." Min Xizhen looked at the Hybe representative and said.

"Five points." The Hybe representative raised the income by 4%, but except for a few company representatives, the other representatives looked normal.

"Seven points."

"Eight o'clock."

"Nine points."

"give up."

"Ten points."

"give up."

"Give up." The solitaire continued, and the more than ten representatives who raised their hands only increased their prices from 1% to 13%, and then returned to Hybe.

"Fifteen points." Representative Hybe's face remained unchanged as he gave an amount.

They knew the bidding method in advance. As a high-ranking member of the Korean Opup Club, they had always had a good relationship with Min Xizhen.

"I won't follow."

"give up."

"Sixteen o'clock!"

"Abstain."

After another round, only four companies remained, and this round it only rose to eighteen points.

"Twenty points." The Hybe representative remained calm, but the representatives of the other three companies were no longer calm.

"I'm talking about Director Kim, aren't you Hybe preparing a new girl group?" A representative from a company couldn't help but ask.

"Our president believes more in Representative Min's ability." Representative Hybe said with a smile.

Xiba believes that it’s not because of the president’s approval that Fatty Fang is a thief!

"give up!"

"Give up." A representative from another entertainment company smiled bitterly and also gave up.

Now all that's left is...

Min Xizhen and Hybe representatives simultaneously looked at the last candidate, the representative from Starship.

"Twenty-one o'clock!" the starship representative said after a moment of silence.

The Hybe representative looked at him in surprise, and representatives from other companies also cast surprised glances.

If Xingchuan doesn't hang out at the Korean Film Club, why does he come here to join in the fun? Are you going to play so big right from the start?
"Twenty-two points." Although the Hybe representative was surprised, he still gave the quotation.

The bottom line Fang Shihe gave him was 25%, and it was impossible for Starship to follow this offer.

The only ones with the ability to match this number are SM, JYP and Kakao.

These three are currently not among the quoting companies.

The Starship representative sighed after hearing the twenty-two percent offer.

"give up."

Min Xizhen handed the concept plan of LE SSERFIM to the representative of Hybe.

"Then, let's start the bidding for the third group IVE."

This time there are more companies running for election than the second time.

After two rounds, the most competitive Hybe and Kakao, one bid for LE SSERFIM, and the other was not interested at all.

Cube, a company that represents Su Jinxing's will, also won NewJeans. SM did not participate in the bidding, and JYP did not participate in the competition.

The strength of the many entertainment companies present was almost the same, and the level of competition in this final round suddenly increased.

"Let's start with the starship." Min Xizhen looked at the starship representative and said.

"Five points!" The starship representative imitated the Hybe representative and added five points in one go.

But given what happened in the last round, everyone quickly increased their prices.

In the first wave, it went up to 14%, but in the second wave, it only increased by 6%.

"Twenty-one points!" The Starship representative looked at the number coming up again and reported the price he gave in the previous round.

"give up."

"Abstain."

"I won't follow."

"give up."

Representatives of several companies in a row announced their abstention.

The Starship representative breathed a sigh of relief, just as one of his was on the verge of a successful campaign.

"Twenty-two o'clock."

The starship representative suddenly raised his head and looked at the woman opposite him, the representative of P Club!

The Starship representative stared at her, and the P agency representative smiled at him.

Starship representatives are in a dilemma.

The bottom line the company gave him was 22%. If he had known it, he would have quoted 22% just because he was greedy for this one point!

"Should Starship continue to follow up or give up?" At this time, Min Xizhen's voice came over.

The Starship representative looked up at Min Xizhen, their eyes met, and he thought about the conversation between his president and him before coming to the meeting.

"If you encounter a situation where you are stuck at a critical point, then adapt to the situation. If the company wants to occupy a place in the music industry, it depends on this time."

Thinking of the company's internal determination to enter the music industry, the Starship representative gritted his teeth.

"Twenty-three o'clock!"

The P agency representative frowned and looked at the Starship representative.

No, their internal expectations weren't 22%. Why did he dare to exceed expectations?
Min Xizhen also looked at the starship representative in surprise.

Hybe dares to give 22%, or even higher, because their boss is a loyal supporter of Su Jinxing, and with Hybe's family background, even if they fail, their vitality will not be seriously damaged.

But Starship is different. This company entered the Korean Pop Association through the Korean Film Festival. It can be said that they have no background. The company is not small, but its status in Kpop is no different from those small companies.

(This refers to the status in the Korean Occasion Club, not the status in the entire circle.)
Twenty-three percent?

Although Min Xizhen was surprised, she still looked at the P agency representative.

"Will P Club continue to follow up?"

The P agency representative took a deep look at the Starship representative and shook his head towards Min Xizhen.

"P Company gave up the bid."

"Then, the Starship bid is successful." Min Xizhen asked other representatives to help pass the final IVE combination concept plan to the Starship representative.

"The three company representatives who have successfully bid will stay for a while, and the other representatives can leave."

Upon hearing this, many representatives stood up and left.

After a while, only representatives from Cube, Hybe, Starship and Min Xizhen were left in the conference room.

"Three of them are company representatives who have successfully bid, so let's talk about it now..."

About half an hour later, after understanding the details, the representatives of the three companies stood up and left.

Min Xizhen looked at the empty conference room with an excited smile on her face.

After many years, she can finally let go and make the combination she wants to make.

NewJeans, LE SSERFIM, and IVE, although she only operates NewJeans among the three groups, she can also provide some conceptual input to the other two groups if she is willing.

There are three combinations. Just thinking about it makes me so excited that I can’t help myself.

"Huh!" Min Xizhen breathed a long sigh of relief. After such a thing was implemented, of course she had to have a good drink.

As for who to call...

Of course it’s Kim Young-min and Lee Soo-man, old rivals and friends.
