"Yo Bo Se Yo, Ye Jin Seo...it's me, come out and meet me, let's talk about the movie."
"Ani, I'll go to the company to meet you. It's not convenient to meet outside."
"Okay, that's it."
After making an appointment with the other party to meet at the company, Li Zhenyu drove the car into the ramp.
In front of the building, Li Zhenyu saw fans and reporters waiting nearby, and the troubles after becoming famous began.
Before they got out of the car, fans and reporters stood up when they saw a car stop.
They stood on tiptoe to look forward and whispered to each other about who had arrived.
Such a cute pink color, it must be Ouni, right? The car door lifted up, Li Zhenyu got out of the car, and pulled the door down and closed it with his backhand.
"Ah~ Yes, it's Li Zhenyu PO."
"Ah, ahhh, Oppa~"
Screams followed, and Li Zhenyu smiled and waved, experiencing the feeling of being a celebrity on the red carpet.
Just a dozen people created a hot scene that was followed by thousands of people.
Arriving at the gate, Li Zhenyu nodded politely and turned to enter the company gate.
"President."
"Is anyone here?"
"Inside, Son Ye-jin-xi just came upstairs, coming in from the back door."
"Got it, keep busy."
As the elevator went up and the door opened, Li Zhenyu saw Son Ye-jin and her assistant in the reception waiting area.
"Anihasayo, President Lee, we meet again." Son Ye-jin smiled happily.
"Oh my, our Yejin is so pretty. She looks good in anything she wears."
"Kang Sangmi!" Son Ye-jin smiled happily, and her toothy smile was very contagious.
"Come on, let's talk inside. Bring in two cups of tea."
After hearing what he said, the assistant wanted to say something, but Son Ye-jin raised her hand to signal that it was okay.
They met and talked last time. This young and handsome president seemed easy to get along with and didn't seem like a bad person.
Besides, what could happen in the office in broad daylight?
"Just wait for me here." Li Zhenyu He and Son Yejin entered the room, and Li Zhenyu took off his coat and hung it on the hook, "Just hang your clothes here."
"Inside." Son Ye-jin hung the white blazer draped over her shoulders on it.
Brown wool sweater with pile collar, very beautiful.
After hanging up the clothes, Son Ye-jin saw that he was staring at her. She lowered her head and asked in surprise, "What's wrong?"
"It's okay...it looks very beautiful." Li Zhenyu responded with a smile.
"Ah~" Son Ye-jin lifted her hair somewhat unnaturally, smiling in silence.
"Come on, don't be shy." After asking her to sit on the sofa, Li Zhenyu walked around the desk and took out the script from the drawer.
"Here, take a look. The script is right here." Li Zhenyu walked to the wall cabinet, picked up the crystal bottle on it and poured himself some foreign wine.
Somehow, he suddenly felt like having a drink.
Looking back, he saw Son Ye-jin reading word by word, and Lee Jin-woo reminded her, "Page 10, read page 10 first."
In "Parasite", there is a "boat" scene between the president and his wife.
Wow, that's incredible.
President Park's technique is very professional.
From what Li Zhenyu learned, she probably wouldn't accept the pure and innocent style with her conservative image.
Sure enough, after turning to page 10 of the script with doubts, Son Ye-jin's expression quickly turned into distress.
There was a boat scene, but she hadn't thought of that...
Movies made for foreigners to watch will of course have some passion in them.
So, it seems that we can’t cooperate this time.
"President Li Zhenyu, Miane, it seems that we can't cooperate well this time."
Son Ye-jin closed the script with regret. She would not accept a script with a boat scene.
It has to do with her personality, but more importantly, her character.
In fact, if it were someone else, Li Zhenyu would suggest her to give it a try, because this is obviously a good opportunity for transformation.
Not only that, if I win the prize...
From a national goddess to an international superstar, her treatment and status in all aspects have been greatly improved.
But who made me harbor bad intentions towards her? "Yeah, I think so too, wait..." Li Zhenyu put down the cup and took out a new script from the drawer again.
"Take a look at this!" Li Zhenyu handed the book to her. Seeing that Son Yezhen was a little hesitant, he pushed it forward again and said, "Take a look. You will like it."
"Yes." Son Ye-jin took the script with both hands and saw the name "Crash Landing on You" on it.
"Was this also written by President Xi?" Opening the notebook, Son Ye-jin was more curious about him than the script.
"Yes." Li Zhenyu replied casually.
Won’t this man’s inspiration run dry?
Where on earth does he get so much inspiration from, and how many scripts are in his drawer?
"Oppa~" The door was suddenly pushed open and IU rushed in with a happy smile.
Seeing that there were still people in the office, IU's smile froze: "Hello, President... Hello, Son Ye-jin, senior."
"Yes." Son Ye-jin stood up and nodded politely.
"Come in!"
"Ne, Mia Nei, President." IU lowered her head embarrassedly. It was really inappropriate to be so rude in front of outsiders.
If word gets out, people will say that the artists at Zy+ Entertainment are impolite and the president will be accused of neglecting management. How can people trust such a company?
"Remember to pay attention next time. What are you so happy about?" Li Zhenyu pointed to the side and said, "Sit down and talk!"
"Yes, I came to congratulate the president. The movie is a big hit."
"Well, I got it. What else?"
"Well, the first week sales statistics for my new album are out."
"Has it been released for a week?" Li Zhenyu muttered quietly, then smiled and said, "How about 10,000 or 20,000?"
"President, it's 42,000." IU shrank her head and carefully raised five fingers.
Her big, sparkling eyes were filled with playful happiness and joy.
"42,000?" Li Zhenyu was shocked.
With sales of 42,000 copies in the first week, isn't that better than all other singers of the same period?
He remembered that it was announced before that Rain's new album sold 80,000 copies in a single month, surpassing all previous achievements and was widely reported by the media.
But compared with 42,000 copies sold in a single week, the gap immediately widened.
Doesn't this mean that her performance surpassed that of popular male idols, even if it was only once, it would be amazing enough.
"Ohm, is that true?" Son Ye-jin, who was standing by, couldn't help but scream out in surprise.
Although she is an actor, we are all in the same circle and we all understand and care about each other's situations.
Usually, people in the company also talk about these things.
Six months after its release, sales of over 100,000 copies are a big deal worth celebrating, and nearly 50,000 copies sold in a single week...
"Aigu, President Xi, congratulations to Zy Entertainment for training such an excellent singer. She will be as good as Hyori or BoA in the future!"
"Kang Sang-mi, senior." IU smiled happily.
BoA is her idol. If IU could become a singer as good as BoA, she would be so happy that she would jump for joy.
"It seems that I will have to prepare Neon's debut album for you next time."
As the largest entertainment market in Asia, Japan's record market is worth as much as the entire Asia, and it is also the second largest film market in the world.
Even if South Korea sets the export of entertainment culture as a national strategy, the fact is that the gap with Japan is still huge.
This is why South Korean artists focus on the Japanese market and want to impact Japan after achieving success in their home country.
Firstly, the market there is the largest, and abandoning the Neon market would be tantamount to digging one's own grave.
Second, recognition.
Like many Asian countries, South Korea also wants to enter the international market, but European countries' recognition of South Korea's culture and entertainment industry is basically zero.
But once they get recognition from the Japanese market, they will have the idea, "Oh, the Japanese also say it's good, so let's give it a try."
This kind of change in attitude is something South Korea can only dream of.
Therefore, the first step to go international is to gain recognition from the Japanese market.
Win awards and get great data and results.
Only in this way can there be a slight chance of impacting Ou Mei...
"Yes, the company has also hired a teacher to teach me Neon language. President, I will study hard."
"That's good. How was your rest recently? Was it very hard? Did you eat well?"
"Ani, with the care of Manager Luo and the assistants, I slept well and ate well..."
Hearing the two people chatting like family, Son Ye-jin's envy was written all over her face.
The way they get along is like a family.
So enviable!
"Keep working hard, Oppa believes in you."
“Yes.” Standing up and bowing, IU said seriously: “I will definitely work harder.”
When she left, Son Ye-jin was still thinking about how they had gotten along like family.
However, as the best-performing artist in the company, it is only natural that he deserves such treatment!
Son Ye-jin collected her messy thoughts and focused on the script again.
Clang clang~ Xia Zhuxi walked in, "President, President Jin is here and said he has something to report to you."
"Well, please let him in!"
"Ah~ Well, I'll go outside first..." Son Ye-jin was worried that she would disturb them when they were talking about business, and it would not be nice for an outsider to hear such a report.
"It's not very convenient outside. Let's go to the interview room."
Li Zhenyu stood in front of the wall cabinet and fumbled for a few times, and the cabinet and the wall behind it opened to the right.
The room was the size of a bedroom, furnished with two single sofas, a small round table, cabinets and other furniture. At the end was a corridor, but it was unknown where it led to.
Because of the window at the end of the corridor, the room is not very dark.
That is, the overall red style looks a bit strange. Why are the walls and sofas all red? Is it because he likes it? "That's the coffee machine. The bathroom is inside. If you want to leave, press this to open the door. I will also open the door from the outside when the conversation is over. I also want to hear your opinion on the script then."
"Ah, yes." Although Son Ye-jin felt a little strange, she didn't feel it was dangerous.
This handsome and gentle face really gives me a sense of security.
Besides, she also tried to open the door from the inside and there was no problem at all.
Such a young president can’t be a pervert!
