Chapter 242 Entanglement
(Thanks to the second leader for the big paper airplane and flowers to celebrate. Please give me some more time. Next update will be three o'clock.)
I have to say that Xu Xian is a born star, at least in terms of aura. Although she is more "receptive" in private, her ability to control the scene in big scenes is very strong.
Seohyun takes the lead in many of the girls' songs. What is important is her smooth performance and her calm attitude in various big scenes. Correspondingly, when girls cry together because of someone, she often takes the initiative to stand up and thank the fans.
This little girl who has been hiding behind her eight sisters will finally be revealed to everyone through this movie today without reservation.
Li Shungui and others were all very sad. Naturally, the two girls felt a sense of loss after their treasure was discovered by everyone. Li Menglong, on the other hand, didn't know whether this was a good thing for Xu Xian.
Although Xu Xian was popular in the past, he could still rely on his sisters more and still had time to study and take classes in private. But now, according to Li Menglong's understanding of the circle, Xu Xian may be very busy in the future.
In any case, things have become a foregone conclusion. Even if there are some hidden worries, the benefits to Xu Xian always outweigh the disadvantages.
Just as we were rushing to the next venue, the senior management of s*m started a meeting. Seohyun's problem had to be solved, and it even involved the recent Girls' Generation problem.
Currently, Girls' Generation is definitely the number one group in the company that attracts huge amounts of money. The group at the top has been separated, and the juniors at the bottom have a vague attitude of rushing into the street. The latest exo has just debuted.
Therefore, stabilizing Girls' Generation's emotions has become the top priority. After all, their contract expires in less than two years, and the conflicts have been particularly serious recently.
Everyone in the conference room was silent. Park Xiangmin sat in the bottom corner like a sinner. He himself couldn't understand why things had become like this.
Now Kim Taeyeon and Lee Soon Kyu are completely at odds with him, and they will ignore him. He recognizes these two people, after all, they have really offended each other.
Hyoyeon and Xiuying are the other two people who have always disliked him. One is because he has no direction for development and has no desires. The other does not need development and just falls in love.
The other girls all complained to him more or less. He was the one who made the final decision on Yoona's TV series. During the most difficult period in the later stage, he didn't even care about it because he was having a tough time with Li Menglong.
Jung Soo-yeon has been thinking about doing some side work of her own, and the company is opposed to it for the sake of her artist image, so naturally she has a tougher attitude.
As for Xu Xian, he thought of this good girl and with his last expectation, he dialed the phone under the watchful eyes of all the big leaders of the company.
"Hello, Chief Park!" Xu Xian's name for him never changed. Park Xiangmin felt a little calmer. Sure enough, she was still obedient.
"Xiaoxian, recently the company has decided to make an effort to support you in the group. I have a lot of solo resources such as advertisements and scripts. When will you come to the company to pick them up?"
"Gui! You have contacted my assistant about these matters. But aren't we going to Japan? I have to go to school privately, so I may not have enough time, and my acting skills are still..."
< br>
"Okay, I will contact Xu Juye!"
"Oh, didn't I tell you? Menglong oppa is now in charge of my affairs. You can just contact him directly. He has the final say on all work matters!" Under Xu Xian's polite reply, the company It was deathly quiet inside.
Jin Yingmin tapped the table with one hand. To be honest, he was in a mess and didn't know what to do. After all, he was educated and did not have the murderous aura of Li Xiuman when he was in the world.
No matter how good or bad Lee Soo Man is as a person, no one can question his vision and decisiveness. When TVXQ, which was more popular than the girls, was clamoring for a big contract, Lee Soo Man directly tore up the company and even the No. 1 boy band in Asia. The three people who left later are still unable to appear in the programs of the three major channels.
Then when the Shinhwa held in one hand was about to leave, a huge buyout fee was once again left behind.
He never seems to accept any threat from idols. Anyway, when a star leaves, there will always be a next one, and this is also true. From TVXQ, Shinhwa, SJ to now EXO, Lee Soo Man has this kind of courage.
But Kim Young Min can’t do it. Does he dare to completely ban the girls? He doesn't dare. He is not a musician. How can he have the confidence to cultivate a girlhood again?
So now things are gradually becoming clearer, and the core of the conflict has become Li Menglong. After a series of investigations, everything Li Menglong has done recently has been placed in front of Jin Yingmin.
It had to be said that Li Menglong was a talent, the kind of talent that any ambitious boss would value, and Jin Yingmin was also attracted to him.
"To put it bluntly, it's all a matter of profit. Since he likes to be an assistant, let him do it. But it can't be a private hire by a celebrity. He can be allowed to work in our company." Jin Yingmin's words were like a knife piercing Park Xiangmin's heart. .
He knew that he was going to abandon his rhythm. Li Menglong, a person who was considered a slap in the face, could still come to serve. As for the position, was there any need to talk about it?
"I will go over and talk to him in person in the next few days. Anyone who makes small moves must restrain themselves. As for Girls' Generation's status, I would like to reiterate again that everything will be based on their signing in more than a year. This is the company's The interests lie.”
An anticlimactic meeting ended like this. There were many people who were unwilling to give in, but there were very few people who could do anything. "Who's calling? You came back with a smile!" Lee Soon Kyu asked, stuffing a piece of meat into Xu Xian's mouth.
"It's from the company!" Seeing Li Soonkyu's confusion, Xu Xian showed a slightly sinister expression: "I told them to contact my assistant Li Menglong about my work!"
"High!" Xu Xian said vaguely and gestured with his thumbs. What he said was really heartbreaking. If anyone thinks that Xu Xian is easy to fool Little Red Riding Hood, the final result will be like this.
But what Xu Xian just said is not a lie. Although she can't tell the details, the next movie or TV series must be approved by Li Menglong. If he doesn't film with her, Xu Xian would rather Don't take these chances.
Sometimes the seemingly stupidest method is often the smartest choice. Xu Xian was ready to hold on to Li Menglong until her death, otherwise she would not feel at ease.
It has been three days since the movie was released in Seoul. Everyone's promotion is now coming to an end, and the follow-up will depend on the box office performance of the movie.
So today Li Zhouyong was the host and called a bunch of leading actors over to have a break-up meal together. Of course, looking at the box office in the three days in front of them, everyone knew that there would be a celebration banquet in the near future.
A low-budget love movie, three days after its premiere, the number of viewers reached nearly 700,000.
It can't be compared with commercial blockbusters, but this achievement is already incredible. Li Zhouyong's original goal was to reach over one million, and he would be satisfied. Who knew that now there is a trend of soaring into the sky.
With a good reputation, romantic literary films are notorious for their long release cycle, which can be released for two months, so it is optimistically estimated that this movie will probably exceed 3 million. Li Zhouyong thought about these words in his heart, but he didn't Dare to speak out.
But everyone knew it, so they were eating and drinking very happily. Several men naturally gathered around. Li Menglong finally got rid of the job of barbecuing. After all, there was Li Dixun who was younger than him.
Women were supposed to sit at a table alone and occasionally come to join in the fun, but they couldn't bear to see two of them here.
So because of the man's face problem, when Han Jiaren and Lee Soon Kyu drank one and the men accompanied the two, Li Dixun quickly collapsed. Li Menglong even wondered if this guy did it on purpose just because he didn't want to barbecue.
Fortunately, everyone was familiar with each other, and the movie scores were good, so we had a great time eating and drinking. Xu Xian later came over and took over Li Menglong’s barbecue job. Although he didn’t have any special ideas, it seemed that he was bragging freely. fine.
But different from Xu Xian's simple thoughts, a drunken eye and a half-hidden eye playing with a mobile phone were observing him.
Li Menglong is changing, so close that people can feel it! Of course, there are many things that remain unchanged, such as the care for them, the doting on Xu Xian, and the seriousness with which he takes his work.
However, changes gradually emerged. To put it simply, he became a lot more lively, joked more and more, lowered the bottom line of joking again, and even spent money more impulsively, of course only occasionally.
Like today's Li Menglong, usually even if he is half drunk, he mostly plays the role of a listener, rarely expressing his own opinions, and just staying silently by the side.
But now Li Menglong, who is holding his arms around Li Zhouyong's shoulders and bragging, seems to be quite fun, at least it doesn't make people feel too boring.
"Don't wait for me, my next movie hasn't been released yet!"
"Who is waiting for you? Now many people are coming to me to shoot movies!"
"Can you tell me everything? I'm lining up to find your subordinate Seohyun to make a movie!"
After all, there is a lady here, and some dirty jokes are not suitable for telling, so he didn't have enough fun. Li Zhouyong once again set a time and called Li Menglong, Luo Yingshi and the others.
Seeing everyone getting into their cars, Li Menglong checked Yan Zhengxun's ID card smelling of alcohol, and then believed that he was Han Jiaren's husband.
It was hard for the other party to say he was angry. After all, Li Menglong definitely had good intentions, and he even wanted to thank Li Menglong. When he took back his ID card, Li Menglong, still smelling of alcohol, leaned into his ear and said, "My sister wants to have a child. Chat with him more often!"
Looking at those eyes, Yan Zhengxun was not sure whether Li Menglong was drunk for a moment, after all, his eyes were too clear at that moment.
"Children, come home!" Li Menglong greeted: "I want to ask for a song, sing oh, gee is tired of hearing it, girls!"
After roughly putting Li Menglong into the car, Li Soonkyu and the others said goodbye politely to Yan Zhengxun before following him in. Then the expected singing did not come, and they screamed a little!
