A concert is not only about performing the singer’s famous and representative works, but other innovative performances such as covers, adaptations, and mashups are also essential. Xie Qianyu left the choice of cover works to T-ara and the others, with the company's professional vocal teachers checking the quality, while Li Haoyang was naturally responsible for the latter two.
The group has added a new member, Li Yalin, and is busy preparing for their first concert. Li Haoyang simply led the team to arrange and mash up all the songs T-ara has made since their debut.
He may be famous for his "Sinsadong Tiger" songwriting, but his ability in arranging cannot be underestimated. Otherwise, Xie Qianyu might have hired internationally renowned Max Martin, Timbaland, Zheng Nan and others to re-arrange the music for T-ara.
Top music producer... Top vocal teacher... Thinking of the two familiar and unfamiliar names Cui Xiaoxian and Jin Shanhong, Xie Qianyu had another headache.
Sitting on the polished chair and listening to the songs in the computer folder several times, Xie Qianyu stood up with satisfaction: The quality of the songs is pretty good, let T-ara go back They can pick a few songs by themselves, practice some coordination, and then use them directly at the concert.
"Oh? Teacher Yunjing...have you had lunch?"
Just when Xie Qianyu walked out of Li Haoyang's studio and was about to go back, he bumped into Pei Yunjing who was drinking yogurt in the corridor and had to say hello.
"Didn't I just finish eating? The company's food is really getting better and better, but I don't know why I don't gain weight?"
This sister...does she have some chance encounter buff? Why do I bump into her every time...
Facing the obviously sarcastic Pei Yunjing, Xie Qianyu, knowing that she was wrong, could only praise: "It shows that Teacher Wuli Pei insists on dancing and does a good job in body management!"
"Don't come here!" Although they have a superior-subordinate relationship, Pei Yunjing and others know that this "younger brother, the president" has never had any airs and speaks very boldly. "Ever since I followed you, I have either been busy or busy. Don’t touch the ground!”
With the choreography team constantly thinking about new formations and the pressure of rehearsing and teaching dances for a new album, Pei Yunjing was really busy going crazy during this period.
"You fill every album with so many dance songs that need singing, and you keep adding people. I just say one thing: Where are the helpers?!"
"I promise! I will never put anyone in T-ara again!"
Silently whispering to Danne who still didn't know where she was, Xie Qianyu said decisively: "I will definitely find the helper you want before their concert rehearsal starts!"
Xie Qianyu had already identified candidates to expand the company's dance team, but he definitely had to hire such talents in person, and he never got around to it.
[If you are interested, you can guess who it is! 】
"Before that, I asked Teacher Pei to worry more about the new album. Those kids are still too stupid!" In the end, without forgetting to give the other party a smile, Xie Qianyu respectfully sent away this long-famous figure in the Korean choreography world. Great God.
The purpose of finding helpers for Bae Yunjing's team is not only to reduce their burden, but also to be like the two groups of musicians "Sinsadong Tiger" and "Brave Brothers", where everyone competes for positions and learns and progresses together.
----------------------------------------
"Hey, President Nim? I've already made a list of the invitations you want. Let's take a look."
Pei Yunjing hadn't gone very far when Xie Qianyu met Lin Mingshu who had just finished her work and went out. She could only lament that her lunch was probably far away.
Glancing at the names listed by Lin Mingshu, they basically include the top leaders of all the famous entertainment companies in South Korea. About two-thirds of them have "raised the white flag" under Xie Qianyu's personal lobbying before, and the remaining The lower third is unmoved.
For example, YG Entertainment, which is still ranked among the "big three", has the name of its president Yang Hyun Suk (or Yang Hyun Suk...?) clearly hanging on it.
Xie Qianyu was very satisfied to be able to grasp the trends of two-thirds of the entertainment companies. Although the remaining three or two kittens had little impact on the overall situation, he still wanted to fight for it if possible.
"That's right, let's do it this way."
The list is very complete, and the information on it is also very detailed. It can be seen that Lin Mingshu put a lot of thought into making it.
"But... under what name should I send the letter?" Lin Mingshu frowned and asked tentatively.
Xie Qianyu pondered for a moment and thought of a suitable reason: "Go and check out the KMP project, and then write some articles on this topic."
"Yes!" In terms of business, Lin Mingshu has always maintained her qualifications as an agent or professional manager, and her acting style is very capable.
"By the way, have you eaten?"
"Not yet... I'm just sorting out the information."
Lin Mingshu's answer was expected. Xie Qianyu hesitated for a moment and then said: "It's really hard work. If there is no suitable food in the cafeteria... just go out to eat, that's fine."
For such a comprehensive talent, Xie Qianyu has always been used as the general manager of the company's affairs. He even intends to train him as the chairman's secretary after his family business grows bigger. Now he naturally wants to express some concern.
"Now, now...Okay..." Lin Mingshu agreed twice, and after saying hello, she ran towards her office.
Saying goodbye to another capable man, Xie Qianyu finally took the elevator to the first floor. Just as he was standing in front of the company door, hesitating whether to eat first or go do errands first, he saw the "renewed" Li Haoyang walking back from a distance. .
"Are you moving very quickly...?"
Faced with the ridicule of his boss, the young Li Haoyang shook off his relatively elegant hair: "I developed the habit of staying in an Internet cafe for a monthly basis. If I don't take a bath, I may miss several bosses."
"I have listened to those songs. The quality is good. I should give you a salary increase! You have worked hard during this period..." Now that we have met, Xie Qianyu also said the business seriously.
"Speaking of these..." Xie Qianyu's concern made the shy Li Haoyang feel a little uncomfortable for a while, "I'm used to being squeezed by you anyway, so I feel at ease if you increase my salary!"
"It's time for T-ara to record the new album in the next two days. Later I will find a vocal teacher to coordinate the recording, and you will be responsible for the production!"
Li Haoyang nodded. This feeling of recognition for his work made him very happy: "No problem, it's this new album..."
"What's wrong?"
"You already have seven songs, why not just add one more, just in case a new member joins, and create a one-person song, or a four-person team concept?"
As expected of someone who later set up his own business and launched a popular girl group like "Eddie", Li Haoyang suddenly had an idea and made Xie Qianyu think about it:
The original songs "Lovey-Dovey", "Didn't We Love Each Other", "Goodbye, OK", "O My God", and "I'm So Bad" are still the main force of "Funky Town". In addition He also added "Dongli Gongzi" and "Why Is This" that were not used in the previous "TEMPTASTIC", plus "Log-in" to pave the way for endorsements...
There are indeed seven songs, plus one more song that should be the target of "Didn't We Love Each Other", which has an incomplete staff...
"I'm just talking casually, don't take it too seriously!"
Seeing Xie Qianyu suddenly stop talking, Li Haoyang, who thought he had said something wrong, quickly added a sentence.
"It's okay, I think what you said makes sense."
Li Haoyang walked into the company door in a panic, leaving Xie Qianyu looking thoughtfully at the list that Lin Mingshu brought in his hand.
----------------------------------------
The company may not look big, but as the head of a company, Xie Qianyu has to do a lot of things every day. This is thanks to the help of talents like Lin Mingshu, Li Haoyang, and Pei Yunjing. Otherwise, he would probably not be able to cope with the shadow clone. coming.
Li Haoyang's words suddenly broadened his thinking. Xie Qianyu didn't even bother to eat, and directly arranged the affairs intensively.
"Yo Posai yo, kim president nim~~!"
First, a call came to Jin Yingmin, and Xie Qianyu greeted him respectfully.
"Hey Yigu, why are you so polite, President Xie?" Jin Yingmin on the other end of the phone seemed a little flattered and said, "What kind of honorific did you say to me? Have you finished recording the song and returned to Korea?"
"I'm already in Seoul. I'm calling to invite you to attend a meeting our company will hold recently."
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, the man felt as if he had made a mistake:
No, if Jessica came back after recording the song, the other party would have already known about it, so there was no need to ask herself. According to the behavior of SM, a blood-extracting company, she would never be given an extra day and a half of leave...
Looking at it now...she wouldn't really have listened to her "education" words, and then she would still stay in the United States...
Does this count as cheating the Zheng sisters and selling them out? No matter what, I just feel sorry for Little Crystal!
Jin Yingmin, an expert like Jin Yingmin, instantly analyzed a lot of information from Xie Qianyu's words, but still remained calm: "What meeting? Brother Xie is going to have a meeting for a big event, and I will definitely be there."
"Thank you for your love. The invitation letter should be faxed to you later. In addition, I have a kind invitation..."
"What's going on?"
"I would like to ask, does Girls' Generation's Kwon Yoo Rixi have any schedule this afternoon? I have a private announcement and hope she can come."
Jin Yingmin was really surprised by the sincerity in Xie Qianyu's words. While replying to the other party, he called for an assistant: "I have to ask their manager about this. If there is no big problem, we will be happy to let her go."
Except for Xie Qianyu, probably no president of any entertainment company knows their artists, or girl groups, well about their schedules, so such a reply is not surprising.
"Excuse me, President Jin. Do you think it's okay to give your company 15 million won in notification fees?"
"Hey Yigu, you said this..." After sighing twice, even Jin Yingmin didn't know what to say for a while, "It's an honor for Yuli to cooperate with you, how can we accept it again?" What about the notification fee?”
"Friendship is friendship, Brother Jin, do you want me to sign a formal contract?"
"Thank you, brother, what you said is true... Come on, Girls' Generation has a group schedule this afternoon, but it should end in half an hour. Look, I will send you the address they announced. You Can you pick up Yuli?"
After receiving the news of hope, Xie Qianyu's mood improved a lot, and he joked with interest: "I thought President Jin would dislike our QS temple, and was afraid that I would kidnap Girls' Generation's good reputation. In this case, I would be disrespectful." Already?"
"No problem, the door to girlhood is always open for you!"
Fortunately, he wasn't drinking water, otherwise Xie Qianyu would have burst out when he heard Jin Yingmin's reply.
That's right...
Even if the door of SNSD is really open to me, I am still afraid of being kicked to death by Jingjing...
----------------------------------------
Xie Qianyu took a leisurely trip to the convenience store. While munching on a sandwich, Xie Qianyu rushed to the location mentioned in the text message sent by Jin Yingmin. Fortunately, the location was also in Jiangnan District, and he parked the car in less than fifteen minutes. Downstairs, eating food and waiting.
In less than half an hour, Xie Qianyu, who had just finished eating, wiped away the trash, and saw Kwon Yuli walking down, but she was alone and did not see other Girls' Generation members.
Quan Yuli, who didn't even have an assistant, stood on the steps that protruded to the sidewalk. She had obviously just finished her trip and was still wearing makeup. She looked around and saw Xie Qianyu's very conspicuous white sports car.
It was the first time she appeared on a variety show alone, the first time she faced Xie Qianyu alone. The car the man drove when he appeared on the stage left a deep impression on her.
"Thank you... Qianyu OPPA, are you looking for me?"
Quickly walking to the car, Quan Youli bent down and greeted Xie Qianyu through the open window.
That face that looked more like a cute one was very comforting to look at. Xie Qianyu smiled and said, "Let's get in the car and talk."
After pressing a button on the car door, the passenger door automatically and slowly lifted up (this car has this function...right...?), Quan Youli took steps to He stepped in and sat in a very regular posture.
The car door was closed, and she was in a close space with a man whose reputation was not that good (?). Quan Dai did not have any messy thoughts in her heart. It seemed that she only felt safe with Xie Qianyu.
"Today is a more personal trip for me. I'm asking for your help. The notification fee is 15 million won. It won't take up too much of your time. I've already made an agreement with your company. Do you think it's OK?"
The pretty face that is charming on stage but naive off stage is so close at hand, Xie Qianyu gets straight to the point.
"15 million, for me...??"
"Yes, what is due to the company has already been paid. Since there is no formal contract signed, the money will be directly transferred to your card. Do you think that's okay?"
There was some excitement in Quan Yuli's eyes, which made Xie Qianyu wonder if he could directly abduct this "sexy person" of SNSD by adding a zero. But if he knew that this was Kwon Yuli's most single in the four years since her debut, Maybe you won’t think so if you share your personal itinerary.
"No problem, let's go!"
Infected by the inexplicably lively atmosphere around Dai Dai, Xie Qianyu also started the vehicle with great enthusiasm: "GO! GO! GO! Let's go!!"
The car quickly stopped in front of a red light. Xie Qianyu took out a makeup remover cotton pad and a bottle of makeup remover from the armrest box and handed them to the girl in the passenger seat: "I just finished my hard work, let's take off my makeup first."
"Is it because I don't look good...?" The voice that was especially sweet in "GEE" was a little deep, and she asked Kwon Yuli, who had already taken off her makeup on her hands.
"No, it's not good for your skin if it hangs on your face all the time, and... the place we go to later may not be friendly to girls wearing makeup."
After hearing this, Quan Yuli felt even more relieved. If she really asked to accompany her for a drink and dinner in private, not only to dress more formally, but also to at least wear makeup to attend. Now it seems that it is completely impossible. Although Xie Qianyu in her heart was not someone who would do such a thing.
However, in a country like Korea where makeup is a basic social etiquette, there are still places where girls wearing makeup are not welcome...? After thinking about it, Quan Yuli became a little curious again.
"Where are we going? I can't even know what the itinerary is, hehe..."
"I want to recruit a great choreographer, and I feel like you, Yu Lixi, can be of help." There is really nothing to hide about this kind of thing, Xie Qianyu said honestly.
"Why would you want to find me?"
"Because you are the best dancer among the girls I know!"
Even without looking at his expression, you can feel the sincerity in Xie Qianyu's words, and Kwon Yuli was elated after being praised. Just like Jessica's confidence in her singing skills, as the lead dancer of Girls' Generation, she is equally proud of her dancing skills.
But it is true that at the moment when "Hundred Battles of Dragons" has not yet come, the girl Xie Qianyu can find who is the best dancer is really Kwon Yuli, but in two or three years, it may be difficult to say the outcome.
They are both great main dancers, and now they are all good in the group. Fate is such a wonderful thing.
As the car continued to drive north, Quan Yuli saw through the car window that she was crossing the Han River on the Hannam Bridge, and saw the Seoul Tower passing by.
The two spent the drive in an atmosphere of intimate chatting, walking from one bustling area to another. The speed of the car gradually slowed down among the pedestrians who kept appearing. Xie Qianyu looked at Quan Yuli and said:
"Yuri, after so many years in SM, apart from your sexy dancing skills, how much do you have left?"
