()Chapter 81, the grand opening

Today, Kim Taeyeon woke up early.

Although I don't want to admit it, well, this is also related to the text message Cui Changleg sent last night.

"Hey, Fatty Jin, tomorrow is the showcase~ There are many exciting shows~ Let's watch~

ps: I know your teacher has a way to bring you in, if it doesn’t work, you can ask me for help~~I don’t mind~~(*^__^*)~~』

I'm very mind!

And I'm not Jin Xiaopang, I've already lost two catties, and I still weighed after lunch~~! ! !

Although there were many complaints in her heart, on this day, Kim Taeyeon got up early, washed up quickly, and then looked helplessly at Papa Kim, who seemed to be moving slowly on purpose, and sorted out her personal affairs leisurely.Completely ignoring all kinds of insinuations from her brother Jin Zhiyong, Kim Taeyeon waited patiently for Papa Kim to finish her breakfast slowly, and then helped her mother open the store door and tidy up, and then the father and daughter got into the old car at home Samsung cars, drove to the road leading to Seoul.

Hmph, the creditor is here, let's see how arrogant you, a debtor, are~? !

The long road is a bit boring. Father Kim is not very good at communicating with his daughter with words. Kim Taeyeon is also a person who puts his mind in his heart. The vegetation on both sides of the expressway outside the carriage is lush, but the atmosphere inside the carriage is a bit dull .

After a while, Taeyeon finally couldn't help being quiet, and she took action first. The little girl turned on the stereo in the car, and after a while, there was a piano accompaniment and a deep man's voice.This song is something that Kim Taeyeon has never heard before. More importantly, this song is not a Korean song. It sounds like a Chinese pronunciation? !

"Dad, what is this?" The little girl looked suspicious.

"Oh, this is the album that my father entrusted someone to send from bei jing. It's a single that boo_hwal recently released to the Chinese music scene." Papa Jin looked at the road carefully, but when he said "boo_hwal", he still couldn't help but feel a little eyebrow-raising Se Wu's feeling, "There are packages in the glove box. I didn't expect that they have already developed to China."

Papa Kim's music preferences are very clear to Kim Taeyeon, because he played in a band when he was young, Papa Kim is really not interested in those idols who sing and dance lip-syncing in the pop music scene.What he likes is the kind of rock band that is full of personality, holds a musical instrument, has its own music concept, stands on the stage and wakes up the soul of the audience with drumbeats and shouts.

The old man in his 40s still has a rock and roll heart.

So in the Korean music scene, only boo_hwal (resurrection band) is worthy of Papa Kim's appreciation. At other times, Papa Kim is more willing to listen to foreign guns, Rolling Stones, or even China's Cui Jian or Tang Dynasty.Whenever I saw Papa Kim shaking his head to the rhythm of the song, imitating playing the guitar in his hand, and frowning, Taeyeon felt that Papa was much younger and manly at that time.

Could it be that father was like this back then and captured mother's heart?

While thinking wildly, Taeyeon took out the single box from the glove box in front of the passenger seat.The first thing that catches the eye is that somewhat weird cover, a black and white photo of five men standing together, with a big red letter written in the blank space above, "resurrection"...

Well, judging by the packaging, it's really, really disingenuous...

Thinking of this, Kim Taeyeon's impression of cj_music, the management company of the revived band, changed a lot.After all, since its establishment in 1985, even though it has changed so many lead singers, it can be regarded as a legend in the Korean music scene.To enter the Chinese market, that's it?

"What? You think it's very crude?" Dad Jin knew the color of his daughter's face without looking at it, so he said with a smile: "I think so too, but what is important in rock bands is the connotation. Look at Cui Jian's album."

But the problem is that Chinese people know Cui Jian, the godfather of rock and roll, but no one knows who boo_hwal is...

The father and daughter talked about this topic, and they talked about it. Both of them had their own opinions, and neither of them would admit defeat when it came to the key point.Fortunately, the father and daughter both took the attitude of shelving most of the questions for later discussion, which allowed the conversation to continue smoothly.

Revolving around music and other things, the topic was all over the place, and as we talked, Papa Cui talked about his playing in a band back then.Although the political environment at that time had begun to become much more open, playing in a band was still an unrighteous thing for the elders at the time.

Young people who have been dazzled by music don’t care about those comments. Young people hold the musical instruments they bought with savings, watch TV, listen to tapes of unknown origin, ponder over their voice skills, and hone their skills. own technology.Where there is oppression, there is resistance. On the contrary, it is precisely because of the disapproval of the mainstream society that every attack brings more enthusiasm. I study because of love, and become proficient because of study.The music preferences of young people at that time were varied, and in the underground music market, many works and musicians with unique styles emerged for a while.

At that time, there was no system of trainees. Young people nurtured the soil of music with their passionate souls, and their music world was full of flowers and schools of thought contending.

Nowadays, the entertainment culture is more and more valued by the government, and it has even risen to the height of the national strategic policy, and the status of music has never been improved.But becoming the mainstream also means the establishment of norms, the establishment of rules and regulations, and the intervention of commercial operations, making it possible to become a star or idol, and to make music.It is no longer watering carefully with blood and soul, praying to the Muse for a fleeting and wonderful inspiration, but dismantling and reassembling in an industrialized manner, just like assembling a car.

So some people who loved it left, but a new generation of young people who were attracted by it came in.

"Although businessmen are beginning to pay attention to the importance of music, my father still misses the days when a bunch of idiots lived in the basement and ate miso soup and rice. Apart from going to school, we only had music in our lives. zi you's music."

These were the last words Papa Jin said before getting out of the car.

Kim Taeyeon can try to understand the nostalgia complex of rock and roll middle age, but she can't empathize with it. When the girl born in 89 understood what "music" is, the entire Korean music industry has entered a new era.Economic take-off does not only mean the improvement of material life, while the spiritual world is being impacted by foreign cultures, it is also beginning to give birth to South Korea's own pop culture.

For little girls, the world of music is novel and interesting, full of infinite possibilities.However, what the girl has to do is to follow this path, regardless of whether it is constructed by others, go far, and move forward bravely~!

Parked the car outside the venue of the showcase, contacted Zheng Chunyuan who was waiting here by phone, took his own admission credentials, and Kim Taeyeon followed his teacher in the admission queue.

Queuing to enter is always so boring. Kim Taeyeon followed behind the teacher in a regular manner, but her eyes were wandering around looking around. The girl tried to find some interesting distractions to pass the time, so that The tedious waiting passed more quickly.

Hey, so boring, do you want to call that guy?Or, tell her to help him enter the venue early through a back door?No, I can't ask her for help. What I don't like the most is that guy's smug look.

While thinking here and there, Taeyeon suddenly saw a woman in formal attire, leading a little girl who seemed very quiet at first glance, walking to the front of the line without queuing.

I feel that this girl who is about my age seems to be shorter than me... Yeah.

Well, Taeyeon admitted that this was the real reason she noticed the girl in the first place.

You are not the shortest, you are still growing!

Come on~! !Kim Taeyeon, you can do it~!

"Teacher, why didn't they line up?" Kim Taeyeon asked in a low voice as she tugged on Zheng Chunyuan's clothes when she saw the woman in formal attire walking to the front of the line and starting a conversation with the staff of the management team.

"Oh, they may be the staff of s.m?" Zheng Chunyuan saw the management staff on the phone, as if asking for instructions.

"That little girl too?" Taeyeon feels really refreshed to be able to call someone "little".

"Maybe it's a trainee, and besides, the heads of other companies should be able to enter directly."

"Teacher, you can be regarded as a specially-appointed teacher of Starlight Academy, can't you?"

"Well, haha, the weather is nice today." Zheng Chunyuan looked at the sky and scratched his head, almost shouting "There is a flying saucer", "Oh, it's almost time for us to enter, Taeyeon, get your tickets. "

While Kim Taeyeon was watching her teacher's nonsensical behavior, with a black line on her head, maybe Zheng Chunyuan's action when changing the subject was too obvious, many people looked towards this direction, and among them, Kim Taeyeon had been paying attention The "little" girl.

Seeing the girl looking at her, Taeyeon smiled kindly, and soon got that little girl's smile in response.

Well, although she is a little short, she still looks cute when she smiles.

Kim Taeyeon was so happy to think about it.

"Sunny, all right, let's go in." Li Yingui turned his head and beckoned his sister to follow him into the venue, but when he turned his head, he found that his sister seemed to be greeting someone, "Why, did you see someone you know? Do you want to call?" He's with us?"

"No need." Li Shungui turned around, the girl herself wondered that she had responded proactively just now, and the way the other party greeted, "I don't know her, I just saw her smiling at me, so I responded by the way."

strangeness?It felt strangely familiar, but in my memory, I had never seen this person before.

"It turned out to be 'her'." Second Sister Li's words were full of disappointment, "So I thought you were meeting someone you had a crush on."

"Hey, Lee Eun Kyu, what do you mean by 'little object of crush'?"

"You don't even look at you. I usually see people laughing and pretending to be fake. Today, I suddenly smiled so naturally. Do you think I will think about it?"

I?Are you smiling naturally?

"I subconsciously responded that the other party was good. I reacted naturally, and of course I smiled naturally." Li Shungui shook his head and decided not to dwell on this question, "But Li Yingui, how were you doing just now?"

"What's like that?" Second Sister Li asked inexplicably.

"What did you say to that uncle that you have an appointment with Uncle... President Li Xiuman, isn't that fooling people?"

"What uncle, he looks like he is only 27 or [-] years old at most, and besides, he treats us so well." Second Sister Li said with a smile.

"Over 25, the one who is not beautiful is the uncle. [The author tears (tot)~~]" Li Shungui curled his lips, "Don't confuse the topic, and you are here today, does dad know?"

"First of all, I did have business with Uncle Xiuman, but I didn't make an appointment in advance. Uncle Xiuman won't expose me in front of others if he finds out." Second Sister Li walked ahead and said proudly: "Secondly, I am now The representative of the company, Dad is just the manager of the trainees, he is subordinate to me in official affairs, which means that my actions do not need his approval, and?"

"You are not made by him..." The little girl turned her head and complained in a low voice, and then turned her head and said, "Sister, what important business do you have with President Li Xiuman? Why are you in such a hurry to come in?"

"What's the matter, whether it's important or not, you don't care about it. Besides, sm is holding a public showcas. Have you seen Yang Xianshuo and Park Zhenying queuing there? They all come in directly." Second Sister Li said disdainfully Said.

The problem is that you, the representative of a small company, are not some giant of the Big Four.If you don't mention Uncle Xiuman's name, who would know who you are?

After a while, the two sisters came to the second floor of the auditorium of the venue. Compared with the hustle and bustle of the first floor, the second floor looked much cleaner.Some invited company executives gathered together in twos and threes, and they didn't know what kind of cooperation project they were discussing, or they were just chatting and gossiping there.

"I went to find Uncle Xiuman, how about you?" Not far away, Li Xiuman was discussing something with several people expressionlessly, Li Yingui stopped, looked at his sister and asked.

Seeing the little girl's answer shaking her head, Second Sister Li sighed, stroked her sister's hair, and said softly: "Hey, you should change your temperament, so what if your relative is a high-level executive in the company? The achievements are not made by yourself, anyone with a discerning eye can see them, but the blind and idiots who can't see them, why should you care about their crazy words?"

"It's not that I don't care, I'm afraid of trouble." The little girl retorted stubbornly.

"Okay, you are afraid of trouble, you go over there and wait, I will talk to Uncle Xiuman first." The second sister Li had no good way to deal with her sister's stubbornness, so she pointed out her sister's whereabouts, and then went to Looking at the big president of s·m, Li Xiuman walked over.

Lee Soon Kyu came to the edge of the balcony on the second floor and looked downstairs. Although the curtain on the stage was lowered, one could still imagine the busy preparation scene behind the curtain through the occasional shaking.A lot of people have already entered the audience, and the trainees of various companies are still somewhat distinct, forming a big circle one by one.During the period, I saw only a few scattered people, who should be managers, walking around in one circle after another.

I should have been at the bottom too. Although the company's main group Sugar performed well this year, judging from the tone of the old lady, it seems that the company has not received the invitation from s·m.Sure enough, the decline of the company is already well known?It's really hard for the second sister, and it's not her responsibility to support her.

Thinking of this, the little girl turned her head and glanced at her sister, only to see that Li Yingui led Li Xiuman to the side, and the two were talking about something.Second Sister Li strengthened her tone with her hand gestures, speaking in a hurry, as if she was persuading something.Li Xiuman on the opposite side folded his hands in front of his chest, with a serious face, no expression could be seen.

As he was talking, Li Yingui suddenly pointed towards Li Shungui, and Li Xiuman's expression changed slightly, and he followed the second sister Li's instructions to look at the little girl.Seeing this legendary stern uncle looking at him again, Li Shungui quickly stood up straight, bowed in a proper manner, and then saw Li Xiuman nodded, which was regarded as a greeting, and turned his eyes again, continuing to talk with Li Erjie up.

Huh, just now, I felt a lot of pressure.

The relationship between the father and the uncle and the two brothers does not seem to be very harmonious. There seems to be no picture of this well-known uncle in Korea in the memory of Lee Soon-kyu who has been drifting overseas since he was a child.Although they are all running entertainment companies, compared to being the founder, he is still the uncle of the big president who holds more than 20% of the shares. He was just promoted to a company representative and then downgraded to a trainee management because of his willfulness. The person in charge's father seemed to be inferior.

Although at home occasionally mentioning certain business moves of s.m company, or some current related news, my father always expressed various dissatisfaction with this younger brother, saying that he had lost the idea of ​​a musician and was satisfied. His mind is all about money, and now he is a businessman full of money. The one who made his debut under his own introduction and formed the first heavy metal rock band in Korea, "i·suman·gwa·365il" is full of The passionate Li Xiuman is dead.

But Li Shungui doesn't think so. The little girl's impression of this uncle who is not close to him is the president of s.m. Under his leadership, h.o.t, s.e.s, boa, fly_to_the_sky, mythology, Even including the current TVXQ, whether they left or still exist, each and every one of them is a symbol of Hallyu!And, more importantly, there is a music style in this world called s·mp~!

The man who pushed the Korean wave and left his name in history.

However, it is precisely because of this reason that Li Shungui feels that the less people know about the title "Li Xiuman's niece", the better.

What's mine is mine, and it belongs to Sunny's efforts to fight for it, not even a kind charity.

At this time, Second Sister Li seemed to have finished lobbying and returned to Li Shungui's side. She dragged the little girl to find an inconspicuous seat and sat down.

"Finished talking with Uncle?" Li Shungui glanced at Li Xiuman, Li Xiuman had already returned to his circle, and sat down with everyone.

"Well, the talk is over." Li Yingui's expression seemed to be relieved, but there was no sign of joy, so the little girl couldn't judge the result of this negotiation.

"Now tell me, what are you talking about?"

"Okay." Second Sister Li glanced at her younger sister, and said seemingly relaxedly, "Sugar's management will be handed over to sm next year, so we don't have to worry about it."

"Ah? Uncle Xiuman..., sm poaching our company?" Li Shungui was a little surprised, after all, everyone knows that sugar is the only combination that the company can take out now.

"No, it's my reward for sm." Second Sister Li replied with a smile: "As for whether you can guard those little girls, it depends on sm's own ability. But I heard that since ses, S.M's luck in girl groups has not been very good."

Li Shungui was about to continue asking, when suddenly he heard greetings one after another from the entrance of the second floor.Standing up and looking, a sturdy, dark-skinned, looking... This, amazing, middle-aged man, surrounded by everyone, walked towards the front row with great contentment.

It's Park Jin Young from jyp!

"Senior Li Xiuman, this showcase is truly unprecedented." Park Zhenying walked up to Li Xiuman and greeted him with a seemingly respectful attitude.

"Oh, you knew the grand occasion was unprecedented before it even started. It seems that jyp has a bit of ability to predict." Li Xiuman didn't appreciate it, and his answer seemed a little sharp.

"I don't dare to say foretellers. It's true that I have a good vision. Recently, the company has developed well. I must thank Senior Li Xiuman for giving up the market."

"Anyone who is very hungry can take a bite of a piece of pie, but only once when they are full. Whether they can keep the place to eat depends on the real skill."

"Senior, what do you think of my ability?" Park Zhenying asked, baring her white teeth.

"Singing and dancing is fine. Do you want to run a company..." Before Li Xiuman finished speaking, a man of some age suddenly interrupted beside him and said eagerly: "Of course, the ability to run a company is obvious to all. JYP's recent achievements really make us very envious, especially the performance in the US market, it is really envious of others."

Hearing about the US market, Park Zhenying's face became more sincere, and she didn't even dare to say, there.Seeing the man rushing to talk, Li Xiuman didn't care, smiled slightly, returned to his seat and closed his eyes to rest.

"Wow, who is this guy?" Seeing the man chatting happily with Park Zhenying, Lee Soon Kyu, who had been watching over there, sighed, "It looks amazing."

"His name is Park Renfeng. Well, it can be said that if Uncle Xiuman steps down now, he will be the first candidate for the president." Second Sister Li answered the questions.

"Xiuman... uncle, your helper?"

"No, they are opponents." Seeing her sister's surprised expression, Second Sister Li laughed and said, "Unexpectedly, seeing them cooperate so well in front of outsiders, it's hard to believe that they are actually fighting to the death in office politics?"

Yes, the world of adults... is really complicated.

The little girl sighed and hadn't spoken yet, when suddenly she heard a very loud ~~~up, now~~~~ from the stage downstairs! ! "

The surrounding lights began to dim slowly, and all the audience began to return to their positions.

"The first thing to come on stage is the explosive dance, let us invite you to lead the dance~~, Jin~, Xiao~, Yuan~~~!"

ps: Actually, I only found out when I was writing about Korean Entertainment that Lee Soo Man, Park Jin Young, and Yang Hyun Suk are the founders, but they may not be the president.Just like Yang Xianshuo is the founder and chief producer, but the CEO is his younger brother.Park Zhenying may be an excellent musician and producer, but for business operations, I'm afraid I still have to borrow others.

至于李秀满更是，以后才得到的头衔。历届s·m的社长分别是，金景旭（1995－2000），许大信（2000－2005）表仁峰（2005－2008）金英敏（2008－？）

Therefore, the Korean entertainment novels in the past have some conventions, so that some scapegoats or plots that are regarded as the standard are really taken for granted.Here I will write Li Xiuman as the second president, there will be a story of a fight between him and "Park Inbong", and the other bosses will return to their original positions.
