Chapter 021 Where to Go Girls' Generation
Li Xianzhe rubbed his slender head and pretended to smile silly, and made a rough calculation. By the time he finished dealing with the matters in front of him, it would be almost April, excluding the ancestor worship that must be paid attention to.
There are only three major events left that have changed the SM landscape.
Now that I have agreed to Lee Soo Man, but Lee Hyun Chul has some headaches, and the EXO and F() matter is easy to deal with, what about Girls' Generation? Orientals like to use the dinner table culture to deepen each other's feelings.
At least, no matter how unfamiliar you were before, with just a glass of wine and a few words, you won't be able to ignore him again if you meet again next time.
In the past, there was the sister Li Shunkyu, but now Seohyun and other people are included. Although the two parties are not close friends, they can be regarded as having a relationship after having a meal. Li Xianzhe suddenly found that he had some
I regret agreeing to this invitation.
No matter what the final direction of Girls' Generation is, he can't get away. The interests of both parties were quietly connected when he chose to join the board of directors.
"Haha, I heard that as soon as Xianzhe entered the company, he took the initiative to ask Mr. Lee Soo Man Nim to take over the management of the company's girl group. I wonder how Xianzhe plans to deal with our young girlhood affairs."
Sure enough, it came, Li Xianzhe said to himself, he had to admire Xu Xian's calmness. Compared with the eight unreliable sisters, Xu Xian perfectly grasped the entry point of the topic.
"For now, have all the Nounas renewed their contracts with the company?"
"Our contract was signed on August 5, 2007. At the beginning, each person's contract amount was 5 million won. Like other seniors in the company, they signed a fifteen-year contract. But later TVXQ seniors
After what happened, the company changed our contract to seven years."
Although it has been almost five years since the TVXQ incident, it is still something that is talked about in the industry. If it were in front of the company's senior officials, Seohyun would definitely not talk about it so generously.
"So what do you think?"
"We want to know how the company will arrange the next Girls' Generation?"
As soon as the contract was mentioned, the girls lost their appetite. Lee Hyun-cheol sat quietly on the sofa and pointed his fingers on the sofa without rhythm. Now that we have entered 2014, Girls' Generation has reached the top.
In S...M's eyes, a girl group that has lasted seven years is enough to take pride of place in the history of South Korean girl groups. But often when a boy group reaches this time, the company will start to consider the military service they face.
Most brokerage companies will choose to squeeze as much value as possible from their team members before they join the army.
After that, we will consider launching a new group.
But this is not the case for girl groups. Generally speaking, after five years of debut, the disadvantages of a girl group begin to show up. For example, the year Lee Hyun-cheol returned to China, DSP's KARA originally had two members leaving due to contract issues.
Min Sunye and the maknae, the souls of JYP's first girl group Wonder Girls, also left one after another.
S...M also started to have the idea of preparing a new girl group because of the contract expiration and other issues faced by Girls' Generation, and it is already being implemented.
To a certain extent, Lee Hyun-cheol thought about what he proposed at the board of directors. If Girls' Generation wants to continue, all nine members are indispensable. For S...M, the only thing they have that is valuable at the moment is this brand.
Therefore, both Kim Young Min and Lee Soo Man have at least reached a consensus on this point.
"Before I answer your question, let me make a guess. Regarding the contract renewal, I think your team should be divided into three parties, right?"
Li Xianzhe lazily shaved off the dust from his fingers with a nail clipper, pretending that he didn't notice that the faces of two people had become slightly stiff.
"No one wants to be an idol for the rest of their lives. When their popularity reaches a certain bottleneck, what artists need is to find a breakthrough point.
Some people will change careers and enter the television industry to become an actor, some people will use their sense of talent to win several variety shows and become regular MCs, some people hope to simply become a singer and sing honestly, and some people will
Many people hope to start a side business and seek a better career.”
At this point, Li Xianzhe put away the nail clippers in his hand with a "pop" sound, looked at someone with a half-smile and said, "But there is no such thing as the best of both worlds in the world. You all live an average life in S...M
After almost fifteen years, I should know the company better than I do.
S...M needs obedient artists, not talented artists. If the company really agrees to your conditions, TVXQ will not split again, and Han Geng will not quit the group.
Since HOT and TVXQ, why are the members' versatility levels getting lower and lower among the several groups launched by the company? There are fewer and fewer idols with independent creations like Kangta, Moon Heejun, and Park Yoochun?
Why is it that everyone in Yuanzu HOT and the national boy band TVXQ is talented in composition, and each one can handle all the song creation of the company, but the subsequent groups do not have this.
To be honest, I came here today just for the sake of Soonkyu Noona. From my personal point of view, the future of your Girls' Generation has nothing to do with me. Even if you disband and the members go solo, causing a decline in the company's stock price, I
I have no relationship with you in the past, so I really can't bear the loss.
The reason why S...M is called a star-making factory is all due to its assembly line production. Each group of artists under it is branded with a distinct brand. Even if they break up peacefully, unless they can return to the path of mythology,
Do you think any company would be willing to accept it? For example, will TVXQ who left SM still be the same TVXQ?"
"After saying all this, do you mean to say that neither you nor the company will relax our contract?"
Someone's face instantly turned cold, and the queen's aura around him also dropped a lot.
"Sikaoni."
Perhaps realizing that Jessica's words were too blunt, Xu Xian couldn't help but tugged on Jessica's clothes and comforted her in a low voice.
"Are you finally telling the truth? Put away your aura, Noona, your queenly aura is of no use to me." Li Xianzhe chuckled, walked straight to his luggage bag, and took it out.
Documents are placed on the table one after another.
"I admit that you are more foresight than others. There is nothing wrong with artists using their fame to develop side businesses. It's just that you overestimate the abilities of yourself and your partners, and underestimate S...M's tolerance.
.”
Photos of Jessica and a man shopping in Hong Kong, China, and traveling in and out of certain places in the United States were placed on the table. Among the photos, there were also reports that they had just been printed and had been sold without any disclosure.
“Girls’ Generation member Jessica is in love with South Korean-American Tyler Kon?”
"Girls' Generation member Jessica was photographed appearing with Tyler Kon at a fashion brand company in the United States. She is suspected of quitting the group to start a side business?"
