Chapter 123 You must not agree to the president’s request.
Yi Eun turned her head sharply, and sure enough, she saw Kwon Ji-yong smiling and holding up his cell phone towards her, while the other three people around him had quickly dodged away.
She curved her eyes, leaned against the strange-shaped furniture, and made a heart shape in the direction of Quan Zhilong.
Although it was a private trip, several people still posted updates the next day.
A group photo that everyone posted, with the five girls of 2NE1 standing in the front, and GD standing behind Ye-eun, casually placing his hand on her shoulder and his face very close to her. There were also photos of everyone with Jeremy.
Since getting her account back, Ye-en has become even more casual, posting several photos of absurd artworks she took, including plates tied up with wire, clothes shaped like armor, and a bed falling on the wall...
In Kwon Ji-yong’s updates, there was another photo of a tiny-looking Ye-eun squatting and studying a “durian sofa”.
Netizens who had been following the progress of the two every day because YG’s relationship had not yet begun, were even more eagle-eyed and noticed that the color scheme of their clothes was almost the same.
In addition, Kwon Ji-yong also posted a separate photo of Ye-eun, and instantly a lot of comments flooded in under his post.
[GD xi, daily questions, where is the progress? ]
[Is this the first time you post a solo photo of Ye-eun? And she is the only one who has solo photos. Is she sure she is in a relationship? ]
[I wonder if it’s 80%? ]
[70%? 2NE1’s comeback is going to be delayed. ]
[Big hair…kids on the internet are starting to go crazykkkk. ]
[Hahahaha, the whole internet is concerned about the progress of your relationship. ]
[kkkkIt’s so funny that the whole internet is looking for evidence of their relationship. Because of YG’s legendary reply, netizens also started to make it legendary. ]
Kwon Ji-yong naturally did not respond to the fans' comments. After all, Ye-eun didn't say it was public, so how could he dare to admit that they were in a relationship?
He sighed and turned his attention back to the meeting. After returning to Korea, Kwon Ji-yong started to hold meetings frequently because his solo work was also about to be pushed forward.
After more than an hour of the meeting, Quan Zhilong, wearing a hat, turned to look at the PD who was filming him, and pulled his hat with a smile, "Ah, I have a new nickname now."
Thinking of the day when Yi-eun heard that he had another meeting, she suddenly blurted out, "You are President Kwon, right? How come you have more meetings than President Yang?", he couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth, and imitated Yi-eun's tone towards the camera, "President Kwon nim, now this is my new title."
PD couldn't help but twitch his lips. After following him for a long time, he can now judge whether the words Kwon Ji-yong said are related to Ye-eun based on his tone.
Quan Zhilong didn't notice it, and he smiled and picked up Jiahu and walked downstairs. The security guard glanced at the cameraman following Quan Zhilong and shouted to him, "Zhilong, is the dog on TV too?"
Jiahu hummed softly twice. Because Kwon Ji-yong and Yi-eun went to the United States a few days ago, Han Ji-lan took it away and raised it for two days. But it gained a little weight in just two days.
Quan Zhilong smiled and touched it, "Yes, my fans all said that this is not GD TV, but Jiahu TV. Who has so many shots of dogs?"
Seeing Jiahu's confused eyes, he couldn't help but lift Jiahu up and kissed it on the forehead. "Let's go. Hiong will take you to find Nuna and the others."
Ye-eun was currently filming the MV for "Clap your hands". She choreographed the song and the clapping dance moves were well received within the company as soon as they were designed. After practicing for a few days, they were able to dance in unison for the first time.
Seeing the five people's coordinated movements in the video, Ye Eun looked at Park Bom in surprise, "Wow! Unnie, you are amazing! Madam, you are amazing! You are definitely the best dancers!"
When Quan Zhilong arrived, he heard Ye Eun's exclamation. He smiled and said, "What dance king? The kind of dance king like TOP?"
The other staff members all laughed. Everyone knows that in the same company, Bigbang has TOP and 2NE1 has Bom.
Park Chun pursed her lips with a smile in her eyes, "Ah, you two are making fun of me again! Jia Hu, look at poor Ouni..."
However, when Jiahu saw her stretching out her hand, he turned around and threw himself into Yien's arms.
"This again..." Park Chun looked at Jiahu pitifully. She didn't know why Jiahu didn't like her. However, the more the little guy disliked her, the more she wanted to get closer to him.
Yi-eun dodged Jia-hu who wanted to come over and kiss her little face, and turned to look at Quan Zhilong with a smile, "Why are you here?"
"Have you forgotten what I told you a few days ago?" He sighed and patted Yien's head, "Go find the president."
Only then did Ye-eun remember that Kwon Ji-yong had previously said that he wanted her voice to appear in his first album.
The two discussed it at the time. Since he already had collaborations with Dara and CL in this album, it didn't seem like a big deal to add one more.
"Let's go, we just need to go and tell the president." She pushed Jiahu into Minzhi's arms. The two asked the cameraman to stay here as well and went to the president's office together.
A few days ago, Yang Hyun Suk received the news that LV offered to sponsor Kwon Ji Yong's solo clothing. Then he remembered that Prada also sponsored 2NE1's comeback. The artists on both sides worked hard and saved a lot of money for themselves. Thinking of this, Yang Hyun Suk was in a surprisingly good mood.
In addition, he used the money he earned from Bigbang and 2NE1 in the past two years to buy a big house, open a bar, and even let his younger brother join the company to participate in decision-making.
After two years, he has both the inside and the outside world, and even the company's listing is progressing. He originally wanted to talk to Bigbang and 2NE1 in a while, but he didn't expect that they would come to him for something.
Seeing the two of them sitting obediently on the sofa, he asked himself if he could release two versions of the song "Butterfly", one sung by Kwon Ji-yong alone, and one of them working together.
He raised his eyes.
Look, even if they are two artists who have already debuted and are even very popular, they still have to agree to such a small matter first.
He couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth, and the wrinkles on his face shrank into a ball. In fact, he didn't care about this matter in his heart. However, when he thought of his newly opened bar, he deliberately frowned.
"Isn't there already a collaboration song scheduled for Zhilong's solo album with CL and Dara? Would it be too much if we add one more?" He pretended to be confused and looked at the two of them with a serious face. "After all, this is Zhilong's first solo album. Three collaboration songs is not a good idea, right?"
Yien frowned and turned to look at Quan Zhilong. Sure enough, there was some surprise in his eyes. Before, they thought that this was just a matter of making a statement. After all, having two versions of a song is actually a very normal thing in Korea.
She curled her lips, not knowing what Yang Hyun Suk was trying to do.
Quan Zhilong blinked and whispered, "Three collaborative songs are fine, and this is my solo."
I asked the president because Yang Hyun Suk does have a strong desire for control. If he changes it to a collaboration song without saying a word, I don't know what the president will do in the future.
Yang Hyun Suk was choked by his words. Seeing that Yi Eun was still laughing, he couldn't help but complain in his heart that Zhilong was led astray by Yi Eun!
"It's not impossible actually." He thought for a moment, with an expression that said "I've given up a lot for you guys." "Jilong, Yeen, I recently opened a club, and it should be open in two months. Do you have time?"
He put his hands together and supported his chin, his eyes curved, "You can come and play on the opening day if you have time."
Ye-eun, who had just finished filming a music video, was already very tired, and she rolled her eyes when she heard what he said.
Every time he speaks, he deliberately beats around the bush like this. What does it mean to go and have fun on the opening day? Isn't it just asking them to go to the platform?
She turned her head and glanced at Quan Zhilong, and sure enough, he couldn't help but lean back, unconsciously getting closer to Yien.
“Also, Bigbang and 2NE1 can come if they don’t have any schedule that day.” Yang Hyun Suk’s eyes lit up, and when he thought about how much money his club could make by using the names of these two groups, the corners of his mouth rose again unconsciously.
"In this case, there will be no problem at all to add another collaboration song to Zhilong's song."
Quan Zhilong couldn't help but sneer in his heart. The president has been getting more and more excessive in the past two years.
When he first started writing songs, he would send them to the president, and he would give very constructive comments. However, in the past two years, when he sent the songs to the president, not only did the president no longer give any comments, he would even reject the songs outright sometimes.
It's not just him, I heard that it's the same for seniors who have been in the company for more years.
Whether or not a song can be released and when it can be released all depends on his words.
Seeing the two of them in silence, Yang Hyun Suk said again: "Just go to an opening event, it's very simple."
Ye-eun couldn't help it, she leaned back and said directly, "No."
"President, I probably don't have time either. Bigbang will probably be very busy by then." Kwon Ji-yong spoke more tactfully, but everyone could hear the rejection in his tone.
Yang Hyun Suk's mouth twitched, with some anger in his eyes, but he still held back and said, "Kids, the company has trained you for so many years, are you really not going to help with such a small matter?"
"Boss, doesn't nearly half of our earnings go into your pocket?" Ye-eun looked at the increasingly annoying person in front of her and couldn't help but say, "I heard that you bought a new house for next year's wedding, and now you've opened a bar. Isn't your company even going to go public?"
So what if I make a lot of money thanks to you guys, but it’s still not enough, Yang Hyun Suk thought. This alone is not enough. He wants to buy more things that he could not afford before, luxury cars and houses, and even everything that can better reflect his social status.
He glanced at the planning document for Kwon Ji-yong's solo, then took out the promotional plan for 2NE1's comeback and flipped through it twice, "You guys think about it again, and I'll think about it too."
Is this a hint that if they don't go, their jobs might suffer?
Yang Hyun Suk spoke up again: "Oh, I suddenly remembered, do you want to make it public later?"
Ye-eun was really irritated by his tone that seemed to be "strategic" but was actually "a villain's success". "President, do you think it makes any difference whether we make it public now or not? And even if our relationship is exposed, with our company's PR, what can the company do to help us?"
She couldn't help but complain: "Oh, sure, you can post 'Now I'm in love' then. This way, many netizens will definitely find your reply very interesting, and you will definitely be very happy, right?"
Quan Zhilong lowered his head and raised the corners of his mouth. What was the president thinking by openly threatening them? Didn’t his last reply make everyone assume that they would be together?
He even felt grateful in his laughter, "President, please don't be angry with Ye-en, but there is nothing wrong with what she said. Is there anyone on the Internet who doesn't know about our situation?"
Even Zhilong is like this! Yang Hyun Suk leaned back, looking at the two kids who weren't threatened by him at all, and the corners of his mouth twitched wildly. It really gets harder as you grow older!
"Get out." He closed his eyes, trying to calm himself down, and put his hand on Quan Zhilong's solo plan again, and said in a false tone, "Think about it carefully again."
Quan Zhilong took a look at the plan, pursed his lips, and reached out to hold Yien's hand and walked out.
Everything is already moving forward, and it is impossible for the president to stop it directly. At most, he can make some small moves.
He glanced at Ye-eun, "Let's go."
Ye Eun shook his hand back, and as she followed him out the door, she suddenly turned to look at Yang Hyun Suk, her eyes curved, "Boss, I've made up my mind, we really aren't going, actually this song is also very good if Ji Yong sings it himself."
Quan Zhilong was silent for a moment, then raised the corner of his mouth and said in a low voice that Yang Hyun Suk could hear: "President, I won't go either."
Going to the club opened by the president to support him, no matter how you look at it, it seems like they are tying themselves to the other party's club. The two looked at each other. They didn't expect that going to the president for a trivial matter would reveal his hidden agenda.
They don't want to think that badly of the president, but if something happens to the other party's club, the artists who go to support them will definitely be the first to be attacked.
Compared with this, any tricks the other party uses to hinder their work are nothing.
The two of them gathered all the members of 2NE1 and Bigbang together that day and said, "If the president asks you, you must not agree, understand!"
Dasheng was still a little hesitant, "Isn't that right, President?"
He knew that some of the gray industries in their country were actually very developed, but the president...
No matter how I think about it, it's impossible!
Quan Zhilong sighed. Having been in this business since he was a child, he had seen more and was more cautious. "Of course it's nothing now, but I'm afraid that if something happens in the future, we must not be involved."
Ye-eun also nodded. People are always greedy, especially Yang Hyun-suk, who is arrogant but also self-abased. He doesn't look like someone who can stop in time. "We are all members of a group. If one person gets into trouble, everyone will be affected."
Especially the two captains, she glanced at Kwon Ji-yong and CL who seemed to be thinking about something, reached out and held Kwon Ji-yong's hand, and smiled at him.
The others looked at each other in bewilderment. In the end, it was Jin Duxuan who raised his hand and assured, "Don't worry! I definitely won't go!"
The others also nodded firmly. Ye-eun and Kwon Ji-yong both breathed a sigh of relief.
However, a few days later, Yeeun discovered that this person was really petty, because the pre-release song "Follow Me" originally scheduled to be released on April 21 had been online on the platform for more than ten minutes before the company released the promotion.
I saw fans wondering why the company forgot about the promotion again. Last time, the company forgot about Dara and Bom’s solo songs, and this time, even the pre-release song of the regular album had problems.
Seeing that everyone was complaining about YG’s promotion and marketing, Ye Eun sighed and thought, what do you mean by accidentally forgetting? It was obviously intentional.
No, she really wanted to beat up someone like the president. The more Ye-eun thought about it, the angrier she got. She wished she could fight back like CL who burned the scumbag to death in the MV of "Go Away".
However, they are still artists under the company after all, and the company is unreliable, so they can only promote themselves.
Seeing several members start to announce their first album on SNS, fans were heartbroken and tearful. With such an unreliable company, they really can only work hard on their own.
