After being reborn, I also want to fall in love

Chapter 359 See Who is the Father
SM Entertainment
Kim Min-young sat in the first seat. On her left was a middle-aged man with small eyes and glasses, a character that would definitely appear in Korean entertainment novels, Lee Soo-man.

All the executives gathered together, and everyone looked sad.

"All performance applications from all idol groups under the company have been rejected. All of them!"

"It's not just us, the University of Tokyo has banned our entire national culture!"

Jin Minying lit a cigarette and frowned, saying, "Performing at Dongda can earn you more than ten times the amount you earn in China. All members of Big Bang have become financially independent in recent years. They have only been famous at Dongda for a few years. We cannot lose this market!"

"Let's save the country in a roundabout way. Go to Hong Kong. There are no restrictions there."

Lee Soo Man, who had remained silent the whole time, snorted softly: "The market in Hong Kong is even smaller than that in China. Do you think this rescue measure makes sense?"

"Then what exactly is meaningful?" Kim Min-young looked at Lee Soo-man.

“There’s no point in doing anything now.”

Lee Soo Man looked at Kim Min Young and said, "We should all know that if we want to make money, we have to own the Dongda market, but the current situation cannot be changed by our efforts."

"Everyone should accept the reality, tighten their belts and prepare for hard times."

Even Lee Soo Man said so, and everyone stopped talking nonsense.

The good days are gone just like that?
Just last year, any hit Korean drama could be sold at a sky-high price. Not to mention the popular idol groups, even second- and third-tier stars could earn more money than they could earn in the previous year by going to the University of Tokyo.

The Korean Wave has been really good in the past two years.

As long as the mainstream platforms no longer buy into it, how big can the gap between the two be based solely on the spontaneous purchasing behavior of fans?

On that day, stocks of major entertainment companies fell to freezing point.

And this is only a small part. The tourism industry suffered a devastating blow. In just half a month, all businesses felt as if they were in another world.

The duty-free shops in the major shopping malls that were once crowded with people are no longer seeing domestic tourists, and sales are dire.

Performing Arts Association
After thinking about it for a whole day, Li Shiwu of CJ Entertainment said helplessly: "We can only sit down and talk with Chen Shuo again."

"Let's meet him and place our hopes on his international platform."

In fact, the Korean Wave had already shown some signs in China in the late 1990s.

But at the beginning of the century, Korean dramas led by "Dae Jang Geum" began to become popular all over the country, and idol groups such as TVXQ and Girls' Generation also began to emerge. After Ms. Park came to power, exchanges between China and South Korea became more frequent. In those years, South Koreans made a lot of money in all walks of life.

People are just mean, not to mention that Koreans are a mean species. Once they are full, they actually think that this is what they deserve.

"To be honest, fans of K-Pop are considered to be relatively rational in the domestic fan circle."

Chen Shuo stood in front of the French window of the Shilla Hotel suite, holding a survey document and waving it, saying with a smile: "Most of the fans who first followed Korean stars have established families and careers, and many of them have children. In addition, the internal structure of the fans is perfect, so even the hot-headed kids will become rational under the guidance of their predecessors."

"So this time, no fans online complained about the 'voluntary organization' ban on Korean culture. The national interest is above all else."

Jian Jia and Yu Mo looked at each other and thought that their boss knew nothing about Korean entertainment before, but in just a few days, he had figured out the fan circle.

Just as Chen Shuo said, the Korean fan circle in China is already the tallest among the short ones, and its quality far exceeds that of other fan circles.

This is the result of accumulation over time.

The negative example is the rap circle. After the popularity of China's Hip-Hop, a group of demons and monsters walked from the sewer to the big stage. My goodness, some of the stupid fans even pointed their swords at Ziguang Pavilion.
Everyone knows what happened later, so there is a popular saying in the fan circle: one fan is worth ten haters.

Fans act and idols pay for it.

But the banned rapper deserved to die.

"Mr. Shuo, what should we do now?" Jian Jia asked.

"Nothing to do."

Chen Shuo sat down, crossed his legs, looked out the window at the large, low-rise houses in the distance, and squinted his eyes slightly: "It's others who are anxious now, not us."

This is called occupying the righteous cause, and having a legitimate reason for everything you do.

News came from the entertainment division of Mimi Technology's headquarters, which "verbally" conveyed a notice: all Korean waves are prohibited from appearing on Mimi Technology's platforms.

It is definitely not just Mimi Technology that has received it. Domestic TV stations, Echeng, Kiwi and other major video portals must have also received it.

This means that Koreans can no longer make huge profits in China as they did in the past.

The channel that suffered the most losses is definitely Mango TV, which has introduced the most Korean dramas. Mango TV has made great contributions to the fact that Korean entertainment is well known to the public in China.

But there is nothing we can do. The loss is the loss. After all, it is a state-owned enterprise. No matter how big the loss is, we have to stop cooperation.

As Chen Shuo said, major entertainment companies were unable to sleep at night and fell into extreme anxiety.

Jian Jia got up to answer the phone, and when she came back she said to Chen Shuo, "Boss Shuo, Li Shiwu said that you came from afar, and they haven't organized a dinner worthy of your status yet. Tonight the entire industry is going to welcome you."

"Oh?"

Chen Shuo smiled and nodded: "Okay, reply to him, I will be there on time."

In life and death moments, people are very efficient.

In the evening, Chen Shuo changed into an expensive custom-made suit, took the elevator downstairs to the auditorium, and when two pretty girls saw him, they immediately pushed open the door with difficulty.

If I remember correctly, these two seem to be popular members of an idol group.

As soon as Chen Shuo stepped into the auditorium, the sound of people standing up and pulling their chairs came one after another, followed by prolonged and enthusiastic applause.

Looking around, there were dozens of tables lined up in the auditorium, all of which were occupied. Everyone was dressed in their best and applauded to welcome Chen Shuo, the distinguished guest who had come from afar.

Li Shiwu clapped his hands and strode forward to greet Chen Shuo.

"Chairman Chen Shuo, welcome to Seoul. I am willing to serve you tonight."

There was a group of people following behind Li Shiwu, all of them were well-known bigwigs in the industry, guarding Chen Shuo in the middle as they walked towards the drinking table.

Along the way, Chen Shuo saw many popular female idols.

There was no need to think of anything evil, Chen Shuo knew it very well that if he just stopped to look at a girl for a second, she would appear on his bed in his bedroom tonight.

Look at one, lie down on one, look at two, lie down on a pair.

Seeing such a grand scene, Jian Jia was secretly shocked and said to Mo: "No wonder they say power is the best aphrodisiac for men. You see, many people wouldn't dare to do this even in their dreams."

"At least half of the most popular female idols in K-Pop are here, and half of the female stars are here. As long as Mr. Shuo is willing, he can touch whoever's thigh he wants!"

Yu Mo glared at Jian Jia: "Can you be more ambitious and stop thinking about legs all the time?"

After saying that, Yu Mo cursed inwardly: "Damn it, we have been here for so many days, and the people who come to accompany us are all unknown little people. What the hell is this? They treat us differently."

Chen Shuo came to his seat and a famous actress helped him pull the chair.

He unbuttoned his suit jacket, took a sip of the water on the table, and said casually, "Everyone, sit down."

Dozens of tables of people then sat down one after another.

Everyone present knows that the good days are over and that we will fall into extreme internal competition in the future. If we want to live a better life, our hope lies in that young man from the great Eastern country.

The well-connected actress has already found out Chen Shuo's room number and plans to visit him in person that evening to express her love for the stage and the big screen.

As long as Chen Shuo can lend a helping hand, they will do anything.

This is why Chen Shuo wanted to create "Produce 101". He knew about the ban on Korean culture. The withdrawal of Korean culture was equivalent to giving up the domestic market. Then who would eat the cake of girl groups?
Produce 101 to eat.

In South Korea, the restriction order on Korean entertainment was issued first. After the release of "Train to Busan", Netflix stepped in and directly ruined the entire Korean entertainment industry.

After Netflix took over the Korean film and television industry, Korean movies have become increasingly bloody and violent over the past few years.

Chen Shuo took a sip from the wine glass, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

"Chairman Chen Shuo, I offer you a toast."

Li Shiwu stood up with his wine glass in hand and said in a loud voice: "Let us raise our glasses together to toast our distinguished guests who have come from afar."

"Respectfully, Chairman Chen Shuo."

"Respectfully, Chairman Chen Shuo."

"Respectfully, Chairman Chen Shuo."

Chen Shuo looked at the people standing around him, picked up his wine glass and shook it, then said calmly: "Our company's platform has removed everything about your country."

"Including all kinds of products from your country, female anchors signed by live broadcast platforms, etc..."

The translator relayed the original words word for word to everyone present.

Chen Shuo looked at Li Shiwu, and then at everyone present: "Now, can you listen to my conditions?"

"Be quiet, I'll only say this once."

"."

Integrate the Korean market and become the father of the entire Korean entertainment industry.

This is the purpose of Chen Shuo’s trip.

The subsequent detailed negotiations were handed over to the professional team hired at a high price, and Chen Shuo returned home.

Why go to so much trouble to do all this? Because the era of traffic in the entertainment industry is coming.

In other words, China Entertainment is completely finished.

In the previous era, China had Hong Kong entertainment, Gong Li, and Zhang Ziyi, and the audience treasured their works.

Then Sun Li, Yang Mi, Liu Shishi, Zhao Liying and other 85 flowers appeared on the stage one after another. Although none of them could withstand the box office of the big screen, they did contribute many excellent TV series, such as "The Legend of Zhen Huan", "Chinese Paladin 3", "Startling by Each Step", "The Story of Minglan", etc.

Although these big stars cannot carry the box office, they all have classic productions that can sustain them for a lifetime.

But after them, there are Reba, Nazha, Yang Zi, and the younger generation. My goodness, no one can call them by their names except their fans.

As for the representative work?
Even if all the works of these people are counted, they are not as popular as Yang Mi's "Palace" back then, not to mention the later "The Legend of Zhen Huan".

The same goes for male stars. There are so many veteran artists of both virtue and talent from the previous generation to support the scene, and there is Jackie Chan, a golden brand in the international community. But looking at the young male actors of today, they are not much better than the female stars.

In other words, so far, no one has been able to take on the responsibility of leading the industry.

Everyone is focused on gaining traffic and making quick money, and no one is willing to polish the script or polish their acting skills, which is a completely thankless task.

To put it bluntly, some of the acting skills are not as good as the teachers in the hard drive.

That’s why Chen Shuo wants to integrate East Asia’s film and television resources.

He wants to eat fine bran.

After returning to Mimi Technology, Chen Shuo first asked the people from Miyin to come and report on their work, and then began to deal with the official business that had accumulated after he went abroad during this period.

To put it simply, it means signing various documents. When a boss holds this position, apart from signing, all he has to do is give orders and his subordinates will run around for him.

"Mr. Shuo, are you busy?" Public relations manager Shang Xiaoling pushed the door open.

"Any gossip to listen to?"

Chen Shuo now likes Shang Xiaoling to come to him the most. He can never finish listening to all the gossip collected by her department.

"Indeed."

"who?"

"Your."

"."

Shang Xiaoling closed the door and whispered, "Boss Shuo, people outside are saying that you are mobilizing so many people to engage in entertainment and snatching people everywhere because you want to set up a song and dance troupe like the one under Boss Xu."

"And what you did in Seoul is known in China. Netizens praised you for bringing glory to our country. Privately, everyone said that you single-handedly took on the entire female idol world."

Chen Shuo slammed the table and stood up: "Who the hell is telling the truth!?"

Shang Xiaoling hadn't reacted yet, and replied tremblingly: "I'm ready to publish a rebuttal. This is an insult to President Shuo's reputation and an insult to Mimi Technology. Me, huh??"

Shang Xiaoling looked up at Chen Shuo: "What did you just say?"

"We need to publicize this. Chen Shuo is taking on the entire female idol world by himself." Chen Shuo clapped his hands with excitement. "Post it online. Those losers will be envious to death."

Of course this is a joke.

Chen Shuo sat down, crossed his legs and asked, "Who is spreading rumors?"

"It has been circulated widely, and there is no way to trace the details."

Shang Xiaoling sat on the sofa and continued to report: "However, ByteDance has recently made a lot of unreasonable remarks about you, saying that you are bullying Kuaishou. Their short video platform is also going to be launched. This time they have made sufficient preparations. If you use the same trick again, you will definitely not be able to get back."

"So arrogant?"

"Yeah, it looks like they came prepared." Shang Xiaoling was also very angry, "And ByteDance was very provocative, naming their short video platform Douyin, what a ridiculous name, it's really funny, isn't this just a scam!"

Chen Shuo also snorted coldly: "Yes, it is indeed a scam."

To be honest, Chen Shuo originally felt a little guilty about taking away other people's luck.

As long as the other party does not actively cause trouble for him, Ashuo generally will not kill them.

What happened to Bilibili doesn't count. Bilibili is courting its own destruction.

"Our competitors are immature and spread rumors that are laughable. We don't need to pay attention to them."

Chen Shuo still crossed his legs and said calmly: "We should show magnanimity. Just like I was always the yin and yang teacher Ma before, didn't teacher Ma pursue it? This is called magnanimity!"

"But Mr. Shuo, many people believed it. They all said that you did whatever you wanted in Seoul and promoted our country's prestige."

“Isn’t this a good thing?”

"You are said to have made a fortune by taking advantage of the ban on Korean culture. Is this also a good thing?"

"."

Chen Shuo put down his crossed legs and said calmly, "Fight back. Kill that Douyin."

"Such stupid software is not allowed to exist in the short video field."
