LOL: I really don't want to go back and inherit the family property

Chapter 176 Extra Story 1: Meeting Li Zhien for the First Time
Jiangnan District, Lunjian Cave, No. 151, Fengensa Road.

Several high-end commercial vehicles stopped slowly in front of a seven-story building.

Lin Qiguang opened the car door, and a cold current blew in, making him shrank his neck.

Winter in Seoul is still quite cold, I should have worn thicker clothes if I knew it earlier.

"Mom, this is LOEN?" Walking to his mother, he looked up at the English words "LOEN Entertainment" on the door, and Lin Qiguang's eyes showed anticipation.

Compared with LOEN, he is more familiar with the names of entertainment companies such as SM, YG, and JYP, but LOEN has one of his favorite artists, or singers-IU Li Zhien.

Zhang Linxin smiled and nodded, "Yes, this is LOEN. Didn't you always like that IU? You can meet him today."

While the mother and son were talking, a few people in suits walked over at the downstairs gate of LOEN's company.

After simply confirming with the assistants in the team, a man about 40 years old came to Zhang Linxin, first bowed at a 90° angle, and then said in fluent Chinese with a crappy accent:

"Hello, President Zhang! I'm Park Yongho, and I welcome you on behalf of all the staff of LOEN Entertainment!"

Zhang Linxin smiled and nodded at him, "President Park, you don't have to be so polite. I'm just here for a visit this time. The specific company operation depends on you."

Pu Yonghao had a flattering smile on his face, bowed slightly again, and then made a "please" gesture, leading a group of people into the LOEN company building.

Not being flattering is not enough. Although he is the president of LOEN Company and is in charge of the company's affairs, he is still a part-time worker in the final analysis.

The original LOEN was a subsidiary of SK Telecom Group, but at the end of 2009, the Korean Fair Trade Commission issued a requirement: If SK Group wants to own the subsidiary LOEN, it needs to buy all of it or own less than 20% of its shares.

Because LOEN is a listed company, it is not easy for SK to fully buy it, and the deadline given by the Korean Fair Trade Commission is October 2012, so SK held an internal meeting and decided to sell the shares below 10%.

SK Group sold 67.6% of its 52.6% shares, 36% of which were purchased by Jiasheng Entertainment, a Chinese company that has entered the South Korean market for nearly four years, and SK still holds 15% of the shares to participate in the operation.

At the same time, Jiaqiang Entertainment also continued to increase its holding of LOEN with private equity shares. Today, more than two months later, Jiaqiang Entertainment has mastered 67.9% of the shares of LOEN and has full control.

Lin Qiguang silently followed his mother, looking at this company that has been listed since 2000, but has been ridiculed as "Korean entertainment little transparent" LOEN that "relies entirely on IU to support the family".

He also thought so in the past. After all, compared to entertainment companies such as SM, YG, and JYP, LOEN is indeed somewhat transparent and has no sense of existence.

But on the plane, under the explanation of his mother, he realized that although the company's "top" artist IU is well-known, its revenue is still far from that of LOEN's lying down and scratching the ground.

Jiasheng Entertainment directly acquired 36% of the shares from SK, which cost 2659 billion won. Based on this alone, the market value of LOEN is already around 7400 billion won.

As for SM, YG, and JYP, which are known as the "three major star-making companies in Korean entertainment", SM broke through 7 trillion won for the first time on July 6 this year, and maintained it for 1 months.In addition, the market value of YG is slightly higher than that of LOEN, and the market value of JYP is slightly lower than that of LOEN.

However, these three companies have countless artists. Once their top artists/groups have contract problems and suddenly terminate the contract, it is inevitable that their market value will evaporate rapidly and plummet.

The LOEN company is different, because it doesn't have many artists at all-its main business is record distribution.

Of course, records began to decline as early as 10 years ago, so the most profitable company under LOEN is MelOn, the largest music source website in Korea.

Generally speaking, compared with entertainment companies like SM, LOEN's market capitalization will be much more stable, and its profit model is easier, and the cultivation of artists seems to be incidental.

After all, it is also an entertainment company. If it doesn't even have a single well-known artist under its umbrella, it would be somewhat embarrassing, wouldn't it?
Under Park Yonghao's guidance, Lin Qiguang walked through the company's office area with the Jiasheng team and came to a conference room.

He said he wanted to visit, but in fact, his mother didn't mean anything in this regard. After all, how much LOEN has from top to bottom has been known for a long time in the past two months.

Today is the first day that Jiaqiang officially took over LOEN. The so-called "three fires for new officials to take office", some of the company's articles of association must be revised by Jiaqiang. Let's wait until the meeting is over for the visit.

Lin Qiguang followed for a while in the conference room, feeling bored and restless.

After Zhang Linxin finished speaking, she paused for a while, and said to her son, "Qiguang, I don't know how long this meeting will last, so you should go and visit around by yourself first."

Park Yongho immediately followed and said, "I'll arrange a tour guide for your son. Although LOEN is not big, it's still worth visiting."

"No need, I don't want to be hugged by my side, just give me a pass card or something and I'll just go shopping." Lin Qiguang said this in Korean, for fear that Park Yonghao wouldn't understand.

"Ah, here." Park Yonghao glanced at the new boss.

"Just do as he said. It's really boring to visit with a group of people around." Zhang Linxin smiled slightly, as if she had a deep understanding, "And he can speak Korean well, so he can't get lost in his own company, right? ?”

When the boss spoke, Park Yonghao naturally wouldn't refuse, but he didn't have any pass card in his hand. After all, the original preparation was that he, the president of the company, would take the Jiasheng team to visit everywhere.

After communicating with his subordinates, a minister named Li Zaihao took out a trainee ID card and handed over his business card.

"Just use this. A trainee just quit today. This ID card can travel through most areas of the company. If you encounter obstacles, Mr. Lin just call me."

"Then thank you Minister Li." Lin Qiguang smiled and took the ID card and business card, said hello to his mother, and walked out of the conference room with brisk steps.

LOEN Company, a practice room.

A girl who looked less than 20 years old had just finished practicing, a few strands of hair were still wet on her face, and there was obvious baby fat on her cheeks, she was very cute.

"Inna Oni, what are you doing?" the girl asked while wiping her sweat.

"What else can I do? Of course I'm staying at home watching TV and surfing the Internet."

"How about staying at home all day? Ernie, come out and take a walk with me at night, how about having a cup of coffee together?"

Yoo In Na smiled and said, "Ah, Lee Ji Eun, do you have a lot of time? I'm going to be the host of SBS's "Gayo Dadian" at the end of the month. If you don't hurry up and study now, if something goes wrong during the live broadcast, I'll see how you end up!"

Li Zhien pouted, but did not speak.

"Okay, don't think too much about having fun, the TV series that Ernie and I participated in will be broadcast in two days, remember to contribute to the ratings."

"Oh? Is that "You Who Came from the Star"?" When mentioning TV dramas, Li Zhien immediately became interested, especially after hosting SBS "Gayo Dadian" at the end of the month, she will also star in weekend dramas with Yoo In Na "The Best Li Shunxin" is up.

"Ernie, me."

"Huh? What's wrong?"

"It's okay. I have a little problem here. I'll call you later."

Li Zhien hung up the phone, stood up with some doubts, and looked towards the door of the practice room.

A boy whom she had never seen in the company seemed to have gone to the wrong place and accidentally entered her practice room.

"That, you are?" Li Zhien walked towards him slowly, looking at him carefully.

The boy who suddenly broke into his practice room looked young, and looked a little younger than himself with a baby face, it should be below.

Dressed like a high school student, she looks pretty handsome, but her eyes are a little dull, but Li Zhien has seen this situation many times, after all, she is also a national-level singer now, which boy will not be confused when seeing her?
Then Li Zhien saw the trainee ID card on his chest, "Ah~ maybe you are a new trainee from the company?"

There are only so many artists in the LOEN company, and there are not many trainees. Li Zhien has met them more or less, so this unfamiliar boy in front of him should be a newcomer.

When she got closer, Li Zhien found that this boy was quite tall, and she could only reach his chin. She slightly lowered her head to look at the trainee certificate.

"Is your name Jin Minjun? Jin Minjun. Why does it sound familiar?"

As she spoke, she brushed the messy hair behind her ears because she lowered her head slightly, revealing her iconic, fair, cute, and gentle face with a little baby fat.

The four eyes meet, all startled.

Li Zhien blinked his eyes.

Although influenced by his childhood sweetheart Nuna Zhao Enjing, Lin Qiguang liked watching Korean dramas quite a bit, but he never believed in love at first sight.

But very strange.

Is this face pretty?

It should be considered beautiful, but her appearance really doesn't match the word "stunning", and "elegant" is more appropriate to describe her.

It's not much different from the face I saw on the screen. Cute is the first word that pops into my mind, and then there are those big cute eyes, which are very lively.

"I..." Lin Qiguang took a step back subconsciously, the back of his head hit the photo frame on the wall behind him with a bang, and immediately hugged his head.

"Bang!"

"His."

His reaction also made Li Zhien at a loss.

Looking at the boy in front of him covering his head and squatting down gasping for air, and the photo frame with his photo on it that fell to the ground and was smashed, she didn't know which one to feel sorry for.

But after all, people are more important. Li Zhien also squatted down and asked with concern: "Are you okay? Is your head broken?"

"I" Lin Qiguang really wanted to dig a hole in the ground right now.

Why are you going back?

Why does the scene of meeting Li Zhien look like this? !

Although there is no such thing as a magical scene like "the young man from a wealthy family shows his domineering aura and arouses the admiration of girls", but introducing yourself with a confident smile and leaving a good impression on others should be no problem, right?

But the current scene is really embarrassing and thrown to grandma's house.

Lin Qiguang took a deep breath, ignored the pain in the back of his head, and quickly got up and said, "I'm fine! I accidentally went to the wrong place, sorry, let's go!"

After saying this, Lin Qiguang quickly opened the door of the practice room and walked away quickly.

"Wait a minute!" Li Zhien was stunned for two seconds, and chased out to stop this frizzy-looking boy.

Lin Qiguang stopped honestly, covered the back of his head and looked back at Li Zhien, his heart beating fast.

Li Zhien walked to his side, raised his hand to hold Lin Qiguang's hand covering the back of his head, and said very gently: "Sorry for scaring you, let me take a look for you, it's not good if there is a scratch."

After the words fell, Lin Qiguang was stunned again, his right hand was removed by Li Zhien very relaxed, and he stood motionless on the spot.

Sure enough, Li Zhien is a kind person.
Feeling Li Zhien's hand caressing the back of his head, carefully flicking his hair to check for wounds, Lin Qiguang smiled unconsciously.

"Sure enough, there was a hole. It should have hit the corner of the photo frame. Fortunately, it was not deep, otherwise I would have to go to the hospital."

After the investigation, Li Zhien breathed a sigh of relief, came to the front of the boy, saw the smile on his face, and felt very strange.

"What are you laughing at? Shouldn't the cut in the back of the head be painful?"

"I laughed when I thought of something happy." Lin Qiguang smiled and looked at Li Zhien in front of him, "Also, it is said that when people laugh, the pain will be relieved."

"Ah? Really?" Li Zhien always felt that this boy's personality was a bit naive, so he also laughed, "Although laughing can relieve pain, it's best to deal with it quickly."

"Follow me, you are a new trainee, you probably don't know where the infirmary is." Li Zhien waved his hand and walked in front.

"Yeah." Lin Qiguang followed Li Zhien in three steps and two steps, and walked beside Li Zhien. Because his legs were much longer than hers, he could only control his steps as much as possible.

"We met for the first time. My name is Li Zhien, and my stage name is IU. Judging from your reaction just now, you should know me, right?" Li Zhien asked with some expectation.

"Well, I didn't expect to meet in such an occasion, so...hehe, I made you laugh." Lin Qiguang replied with a smile, and made fun of his stupid behavior.

Hearing his answer, Li Zhien frowned immediately, hesitated for a moment, and said:

"That. Jin Minjunxi, although I don't really care about those etiquettes, I still want to remind you. As a junior, it's better to use honorific words as much as possible when talking to seniors, otherwise it will be easy"

"Have you been bullied?" Lin Qiguang turned his head and said with a smile, "I heard that in the entertainment circle, the phenomenon of bullying is even worse than that in the campus."

Unexpectedly, he was so straightforward, Li Zhien was taken aback.

"It's good that you know, so start learning to say honorifics from now on, it seems that you should be younger than me, right?"

Lin Qiguang nodded: "Well, I'm from 96, three years younger than you."

The corners of Li Zhien's mouth immediately raised, and he smiled and said with squinted eyes: "Ah~ Although he is tall, he is still a younger brother. Come on, call Nuna and listen!"

Hearing this, Lin Qiguang stopped, stretched out his hand to Li Zhien and said with a smile:

"Sorry, there is an exclusive candidate for the title "Nuna".Also, my name is not Kim Min Joon, and this trainee ID is temporarily borrowed. "

"My name is Lin Qiguang, I'm from China, nice to meet you, Li Zhienxi."

"China?" Li Zhien whispered in his mouth.

Although there are no Chinese trainees in the LOEN company, there are still quite a few in SM and other companies. She has also heard some "rebellious" rumors about Chinese artists and trainees.

Now, a real Chinese boy stood in front of her, stretching out his hand to her with confidence, neither humble nor overbearing, as if...it was really different from the Chinese boys she knew in the past.

"If you don't want to be called Nuna, then at least call me Senior?"

"Okay, Li Zhienxi."

"."

"Ah! Is it that difficult to call Nuna or Senior?"

"Who made you have a baby face, you look younger than me."

"Is it my fault for being tender? I don't care, I'm three years older than you, hurry up!"

"Okay, Li Zhienxi."

"."
