Seeing this, comedian HAHA, who was standing nearby, quickly tried to smooth things over.
They were afraid that Wang Yueheng might accidentally offend this powerful behind-the-scenes executive in the South Korean entertainment industry.
"My name is Jung Sung-hoon, Director of Artist Management at Kakao Entertainment Group."
"All the artists under the company are under my management."
"Including their overseas performance careers, I have the final say on who gets to perform on stage."
"I am in charge of Mr. Park Jae-hyun's Royal Theater special show tonight."
Suppressing the urge to punch Wang Yueheng in the face, Zheng Chenghun impatiently interrupted Haha's introduction and spoke coldly.
At the same time, he pretended to be a gentleman, tugged at his sharp suit, straightened his back, and walked up to Wang Yueheng.
The other party spoke with extreme arrogance, as if the entire Royal Theatre in England were the property of their company.
"Oh~"
"Then let's go."
After listening to the other person's self-introduction, Wang Yueheng simply nodded and then prepared to leave.
In short.
This completely stunned Jung Sung-hoon.
Surprisingly, the other party did not offer to shake hands or curry favor after hearing my identity.
"Yue Heng, take a look."
On the contrary, the young girl standing to the side, whose appearance was in no way inferior to IU's assistant, was also present.
Suddenly, he took out his phone and handed it to Wang Yueheng, as if showing him some information.
Jung Sung-hoon frowned; this was the second time he had been ignored by the Chinese celebrity in front of him.
If it weren't for Wang Yueheng's current fame...
He was probably so angry that he had the security guards outside kick the singer out of the rehearsal room!
Wang Yueheng was also surprised that Mo Zixue would suddenly hand him the phone.
He narrowed his eyes slightly, noticing only two lines of text on the phone's notepad:
Tencent is the largest overseas shareholder of South Korea's Kakao Group.
"You decide who gets to perform tonight!"
Read this sentence.
Wang Yueheng couldn't help but feel a slight tremor in his heart.
He knew that Tencent had a vast territory.
But I never expected it to be so vast, even infiltrating South Korea...
Since Tencent is a shareholder of South Korea's Kakao Group, and Tencent itself is a shareholder of the Tencent platform.
Round it off.
Wouldn't I be one of the shareholders of Kakao Entertainment?
At least all the singers from this entertainment company receive a share of the revenue generated on the Tencent Music platform.
Wang Yueheng suddenly remembered.
When I signed the cooperation agreement with Sun Wenduo, the vice president of Tencent.
The contract seems to mention a South Korean entertainment company called Kakao.
If your work is released in South Korea, the revenue share will still be settled according to the domestic contract.
They won't be cheated out of their money by these South Korean entertainment companies.
The reason is simple: I am also one of their bosses!
I understand these things now.
Wang Yueheng felt a sense of relief.
He had already given up on performing at this gala promoting Korean pop.
However, looking at the arrogant South Korean entertainment company executive in front of him...
A smile suddenly appeared on his lips, and he changed his mind at the last minute.
"Hey, are you mute?"
"Haven't you heard of the famous South Korean Kakao Group?"
He stared at Wang Yueheng, who refused to shake his hand or greet him, and even ignored his words.
Jung Sung-hoon's patience was finally about to reach its limit, and he questioned Wang Yueheng with a displeased expression.
He was a high-ranking executive at Kakao Entertainment, a powerful figure whom many South Korean celebrities needed to curry favor with!
This Chinese artist dares to look down on me like this, it's simply outrageous!
"Wait a minute."
Wang Yueheng glanced at Zheng Chengxun, who was looking furious, and casually said something.
He then looked at Mo Zixue, who had just reminded him, and said, "Xiaoxue, go and make a contact for me. Tell her that I'm going to perform solo at Psy's show today."
"As for what songs to sing, that's my decision."
"It would be best if headquarters specifically asked this guy named Jung Sung-hoon to beg me to perform on stage."
Wang Yueheng pointed to the angry South Korean entertainment company executive in front of him and spoke calmly.
Since we have Tencent's backing, we might as well make the most of it.
Besides, promoting Chinese culture on one's own country's stage is hardly a skill.
To truly demonstrate the style of Chinese music on the K-pop stage is what real talent is all about.
I happen to have nothing to do tonight.
Wang Yueheng plans to gain popularity among South Korean viewers.
Let's teach these arrogant South Korean executives a lesson.
Because he spoke Mandarin this time, even Jung Sung-hoon, who was standing in front of him, couldn't understand what he was saying.
He only saw Wang Yueheng with a strange smile on his face, pointing at himself with his hand.
"What trick is this guy playing?"
"Is he mentally unstable? Why can't he understand my Korean all of a sudden?"
Jung Sung-hoon looked at Wang Yueheng, who was still calmly talking to his assistant.
A hint of confusion crept into his previously angry expression.
Especially when he saw Wang Yueheng pointing at him.
His heart suddenly raced, and he felt a vague sense of panic.
The other party's reaction seemed a bit too calm...
"Okay, I'll contact them right away."
"I'll definitely get it sorted out for you!"
Mo Zixue immediately understood Wang Yueheng's thoughts, as if by telepathy.
After smiling and nodding, he quickly picked up his phone and made a call.
Actually, there was still some information she hadn't had a chance to tell Wang Yueheng.
That is, apart from Tencent holding a controlling stake and having absolute say in Kakao Entertainment Group.
Wang Yueheng's former employer and partner, Doushou Group, is also thriving in South Korea.
It has made many international internet celebrities famous and collaborated with major entertainment companies.
They have become a new entertainment force to be reckoned with in South Korea.
Many celebrities have also gradually shifted their promotional focus to the international Douyin platform.
Even without relying on Tencent.
If Wang Yueheng wants to appear on various variety shows or performances in Taiwan and South Korea, it's just a matter of a word from the top management of Douyin Group.
"You guys go ahead with your rehearsals, I'll rest here for a bit."
Wang Yueheng looked around and then simply found a chair in the rehearsal room and sat down.
He then nodded to IU and the others.
The tone was casual and natural.
"Oh, someone~"
Is Wang Yueheng provoking Director Zheng Chenghun?
"Oh my god, are they going to start fighting...?"
"What should we do..."
The people in the room were momentarily flustered when they saw Wang Yueheng suddenly sitting down to rest in a chair.
They also didn't understand what Wang Yueheng had just said to Mo Zixue.
But this Chinese artist seems to have suddenly changed his demeanor.
Even HAHA, the host, was at a loss as to how to approach and persuade them.
The instigator, Park Jae-hyun, was so frightened that his face turned pale.
He kept regretting the trouble he had caused by acting on his own initiative.
All eyes then turned to Jung Sung-hoon.
He remained standing in the same spot, his brows furrowed, his eyes blazing with fury as he stared at Wang Yueheng, who was sitting in the chair.
It felt as if a volcanic eruption was about to occur at any moment.
