Peninsula: Start with the nephew of the soy sauce bottle

Chapter 17 Angry
The happy time spent with friends is just a small episode in Park Kyung Wook's busy life.

By the way, although Oh Ha-young entered JYP as a trainee (intern), she fell in love with this life unexpectedly, especially after meeting two unnies with good personalities. Park Kyung-wook learned from chatting with her It can be seen that the girl's original intention of just avoiding the limelight has changed.

According to Park Jingxu, it would not be surprising for her to become a real trainee one day.

When Park Jingxu suggested that she become a trainee, he had many considerations.On the one hand, it was indeed a coincidence, but on the other hand, Park Jingxu felt that his relative had the potential to become an idol.

In addition, he didn't see that the other party had established a clear goal in life, so he wanted to give the other party one more choice.

This month is the inspection period. If she is willing in this regard, Park Jingxu will naturally help her.Otherwise, let her return to school and take the traditional path to higher education.

From the current chat with Wu Xiarong, it seems that she is not opposed to becoming an idol, and she is indeed very suitable for this bowl of rice.

The matter regarding Wu Ha-young has come to an end for the time being, and Park Kyung-wook has once again devoted himself to the production of the album.

The period until the completion of the title song passed very smoothly.

During this period, something not big or small happened, that is, my uncle Park Jin Young, who was far away in the United States, came back for a visit.

As soon as he came back, he didn't do anything else, so he hurried over to see Park Jingxu - his uncle was still very interested in him.

Park Jingxu happened to be in the recording studio that day, playing and scribbling in search of inspiration, when someone suddenly broke in and startled him.

I was relieved when I found out it was my uncle.

Uncle Park Jin Young is indeed a qualified music producer. When we first met him, the first thing he said was not to ask how he was doing, but how the album production was going.

Park Jingxu gave an American shrug and said helplessly.

"Because they are all new arrangements of old songs, except for the title song, they are almost completed."

“Don’t you have any clue about the title song?”

Park Zhenying asked. He didn't offer to help with the production. Apart from the fact that his schedule was full and he couldn't spare the time, he knew that his proud nephew would not accept it.

"That's not true. In fact, the overall framework has been completed. It's just that there are a few undecided ideas in some passages and melodies."

"Oh? Then play it for me?"

When he heard that the finished product was ready, Park Zhenying's little eyes widened.He had no doubts about his nephew's talent, so he was very curious about what kind of answer he could give.

Park Jingxu played it smoothly and smoothly. During the performance, his uncle's eyes became brighter and brighter, and by the end they almost glowed.

After the song was played, Park Zhenying couldn't help but applaud, and the applause lasted for a long time.

Park Jin-young, who also possesses professional musical literacy and a highly sensitive market sense, also has doubts.

"This song is great, it has a good chance of success, why not satisfied?"

"Because I wrote a lot of melodies, some of which I thought were very good, and it was a little hard to choose."

After speaking, Park Jingxu deliberately played the melody he said, and Park Jinying, who listened attentively, nodded in agreement.

"Indeed, the two sets of melodies each have their own advantages. And I think there are a lot of replacement parts. If they are completely replaced, it is almost two songs in two styles."

"That's one of the reasons I was hesitant, I wasn't sure which style would be more popular."

"Have you ever thought about releasing two songs?"

"I have considered it, but one of the sets is obviously inconsistent with the concept of the album. It is more like uncle you..."

"More like my style, huh?"

Park Jin Young said with a smile, not shying away from these things.

In his opinion, it is normal for Park Kyung-wook, who has studied music with him since childhood, to be more inclined to his style. Rather, it is strange that he does not look like him.

"According to what you said, there is actually no need to worry. Anyway, there is only one choice you can make."

"I know it's a bit pretentious, but it's really hard to give up all this time-consuming and laborious effort."

"How about I give you some good advice?"

Park Zhenying said with a smile, he had this idea after listening to Park Kyung Wook's performance.

"The reason why I came back this time is about the new girl group. As you know, the debut members have basically been decided, but there is a newcomer who made Chengyu and the others hesitant and wanted me to make the decision. It just so happened that I stopped by I also solved the problem of the song.”

Park Jingxu looked at his uncle in surprise.

"Uncle, you don't want to use this song as their debut song, do you?"

"why not?"

Park Jin Young gave an American shrug.

Uncle, this idea is really bold. The debut song of a girl group is very important. The opening song of the debut must be loud.If the public does not buy it, it will seriously affect subsequent development.

If the work of a writer who has never proven himself is used like this, most of the responsibility will fall on Park Jin Young if it fails.What's more, leaving aside the issue of failure, there will be considerable resistance from the company's top management alone.

It's not that Park Jingxu doesn't believe in his work, he's just a little touched by the support given by his uncle.

Park Zhenying seemed to understand his thoughts and comforted him with a smile.

"Don't think too much. This piece of music is really excellent. It might not be better if I write it. In that case, why don't I just get the finished piece?"

"But others in the company may not be willing, right?"

"Don't worry about it, I'll make them agree."

The uncle who was always gentle and easy to get along with could actually say such domineering words. To be honest, even Park Jingxu had never seen it before.

"After a period of time, after the concept of the new group is finalized, I will find time to fill in the lyrics. If there are no other requirements, I will try my best to stick to the concept."

After saying this, Park Zhenying turned around and planned to leave.

When I reached the door, I suddenly remembered something and stopped.

"By the way, sign a contract with the company as soon as you have time. Once the album comes out, you will be considered a singer, but you can't let other companies take advantage of you."

As he spoke, Park Zhenying still showed an unsatisfied expression on his face.

"Last time Jingxu you went to see Li Xiuman, you must have been harassed by that old fox, right? That guy likes handsome young people the most, so he might not give up and keep an eye on you secretly!"

Hearing this, Park Jingxu repeatedly agreed, and helplessly looked at the back of Park Zhenying leaving.

The uncle is indeed quite vindictive, and he is still thinking about the time when he was rejected by Lee Soo Man because of his appearance.

Park Jingxu, who got help from his uncle to eliminate a major problem, once again devoted himself to album production. With a smooth mind, he skillfully completed each step, and the fresh title song was officially released in just a few days.

At this point all the songs are complete and ready for the next step - mastering.

This part, including subsequent contact with publishers, was left to the company's professionals.

Due to insufficient budget, he only plans to print [-] CDs in the first round to test the waters, and will add more if the response is enthusiastic.

He did have a good idea for the album cover design.

Cover design is generally closely related to the album concept.And what he wants to express with this album is very simple - self-statement.

This is his first appearance as a singer. Most of the songs selected are songs written in the past few years, based on daily life.

Therefore, the overall concept is closer to allowing the audience to get to know Park Kyung Wook.

With this in mind, he made the cover in the form of a bounty from his favorite anime One Piece. The photo in the bounty will be his self-portrait, which he will complete himself.

There was a period when I was obsessed with One Piece, and I worked hard at painting, and even imitated my own bounty.

You definitely can’t copy it when you put it on the album.

He plans to change the color tone of the entire reward order to pink, with the gesture of heart-to-heart in the photo, and the annotation below: "Heart Sniper" offers a reward of 500000 hearts.

For another person, this idea might be slightly embarrassing, but not for Park Jingxu. This was objectively confirmed by the people around him - because he is handsome enough, many people are satisfied when they see his face.

As for the album packaging, he intends to use the most common plastic packaging on the market.Rao is that he has full confidence in his songs, and it is impossible to specialize in this aspect.

On the one hand, the money in your pocket does not allow it, and on the other hand, with the popularity of digital music now, fewer and fewer people will buy physical music. It is not cost-effective to invest too much money in this sluggish market.If he is a singer who has been famous for a long time, he will consider working hard in this area in order to reward his loyal fans.

It's a pity that he is not. He just doesn't want to give up this market.Although the situation is declining, a camel is still bigger than a horse after all.Given its size, a considerable number of people still retain the habit of buying CDs, and it will be quite some time before physical albums are completely destroyed.

After finishing the physical album, the shooting of the MV needs to be put on the schedule.

But before that, he received a summons from his uncle.

Outside his uncle's office door, he saw an unexpected person.

"Sorry, I'm leaving first."

The girl who bowed in front of him and slowly backed away from the door turned out to be Pei Xiuzhi.

The moment the girl who hated him for some reason closed the door and turned around, their eyes met.

Park Jingxu could clearly see the fleeting surprise on the other party's face. Out of politeness, he nodded as a greeting. Without waiting for the other party to react, he walked past her and knocked on the door and walked into Park Zhenying's office.

Pei Xiuzhi, who was left staring at the office door, was stunned for a while. Until she realized what Park Jingxu's arrival meant, her expression suddenly changed to a worried look.

"It's not going to be a problem, is it?"

Pei Xiuzhi murmured to herself.

Park Jingxu in the room naturally couldn't detect the girl's thoughts, and even if he knew, he wouldn't take it seriously.

He was more concerned about what his uncle was doing.

The uncle knew that he was very busy recently and still summoned him without hesitation. Naturally, it was not a trivial matter.

"Sit first."

Park Zhenying handed over a glass of water and gestured towards the sofa.After Pu Jingxu did as he asked, he continued.

"I have nothing else to do with you. I just want to ask about a trainee."

Park Jingxu suddenly thought of the girl outside the door just now.

"Is it Bae Xiuzhi?"

"Yes, she is the trainee who mentioned before that she might join the new group."

Park Jingxu was neither surprised nor surprised to hear the news.

The surprise is that Bae Suzy has only been here a few months, which is a very short training period for a trainee.

Unsurprisingly, Park Jingxu noticed some bright and unique personalities in her. Based on this alone, he seemed to be able to understand the choice of the company's senior management.

"What does uncle think?"

"To be honest, I quite like her. She has a unique star quality. This quality is rare and I don't want to miss it."

"Since you already have an idea, uncle, why do you come to ask me?"

"Star sex is important, but character cannot be ignored either. Because you often stay in the company, Jingxu, so I want to know if there are any bad things about her. Please tell me carefully. It may not be the truth. Even if It’s okay if it’s a rumor.”

His uncle's words suddenly made him realize that this was an excellent opportunity.

For this hater who was rude to him, letting her miss the opportunity to debut might be an excellent punishment.

As long as he fabricates some baseless rumors, he might be able to change his uncle's mind.

After all, his uncle trusted him very much.

Thinking of this, Pu Jingxu thought about it for a while before speaking.

"I'm not familiar with her, so the facts may not help. As for the rumors... there doesn't seem to be any bad side, at least I haven't heard them."

Park Jingxu finally chose to let the opponent go.

It's not that he is soft-hearted, he just doesn't want to betray his uncle's trust.If he uses this method to exclude dissidents, it will only plunge the company into chaos.After all, the identity of Park Jin Young's nephew represents many things.He is not only responsible to his uncle, but also to all employees in the company.

Therefore, he would try his best to describe things from an objective perspective and not cause his uncle to be blinded.

After listening to Park Kyung Wook's words, the actual controller of JYP showed a happy expression on his face.

"Wuli Jingxu really lived up to my expectations. I knew your answer would definitely satisfy me."

Park Zhenying is satisfied, but Park Jingxu is still confused.

Uncle, where did this come from?Why do you have the feeling that you almost stepped into a trap and fell into a place of eternal doom?
Fortunately, Park Zhenying doesn't know how to be a riddler, so he solved Pu Jingxu's puzzle on the spot.

It turns out that Bae Suzy had confessed their conflicts with Park Jin Young before, and she was worried that Park Kyung Wook would take the opportunity to retaliate against her.

Park Jin Young had confidence in his nephew's character, but he still planned this for Ahn Bae Suzy's sake.

He doesn't want the trainees he values ​​​​to have to worry about.

The conversation just now has been recorded by the voice recorder, which can be regarded as an explanation to Pei Xiuzhi.

After listening to Park Jinying's explanation, Park Jingxu's expression became very ugly. No one would be happy if they were kept in the dark and conducted a human nature test.

What's more, it was his uncle who did it, a person he respected very much, which made him feel betrayed by someone close to him.

Park Zhenying, who was familiar with his nephew's temperament, naturally noticed his little mood and immediately comforted him with a smile.

"Don't be angry. I didn't do this right. I'll take you to a big dinner later!"

"Uncle, this is not about a meal."

Park Jingxu said seriously, trying to make Park Zhenying understand the seriousness of this matter with a serious look.

"I'm just disappointed that uncle didn't give me enough trust. You are actually willing to test me as a relative for an outsider. Doesn't this mean that in your eyes, uncle, I am not as important as a trainee?"

Seeing his nephew's rare anger, Park Zhenying became a little panicked. After all, he and Park Jingxu got along like friends, and it was difficult for him to show the dignity of his elders and teach each other a lesson.

"Jingxu, you should understand that I don't mean that. The debut selection is not far away recently, and the members will soon enter the running-in period. I don't want any member to be distracted by this, so I want to resolve this matter in a relatively quick way. "

"But uncle, you don't care about my feelings. I didn't take the opportunity to say bad things about Pei Xiuzhi. It's not because I have high moral character and distinguish between public and private. It's just that I don't want to betray my uncle's trust. I don't want my personal desires to affect your judgment, uncle Du, and thus affect the company. development of."

The more Pu Jingxu spoke, the more excited he became. After he paused for a while to calm down, he continued.

"I spent my entire childhood in the JYP building. This place holds so many memories for me. The company is not only your home, my uncle who built everything with his own hands, but it is also my home! Everyone in the company is like My family, I just don’t want to let them down! I don’t care about Pei Xiuzhi and Kim Suzy! As long as she is useful to the company, I will not cause trouble for her. Are you satisfied with this answer, uncle? "

After saying all this, Park Jingxu turned around and left.Park Jin Young, who was suffering from a headache, was left shaking his head and smiling bitterly.

"It's over... This time I seem to have really offended Jingxu. Now I'm going to be scolded by my eldest brother and father again..."
