I want to be a chaebol

Song Yi's words are actually based on the classic lines in "The Legend of White Snake" starring Pan Yueming and Liu Tao, and they are quite lethal to Yui Aragaki and Masami Nagasawa. At least Song Yi's eyes lit up when he saw Yui Aragaki.

As the chat progressed, Yui Aragaki learned that Song Yi also had a music production company under his name, and that Kim Jong Kook and Lee Hyori were the leading singers of New Asia Music.

Turbo and Fin.K.L are also well-known in Japan, but they are still not as famous as Boa in Japan.

Song Yi said to Yui Aragaki: "Miss Aragaki, you are still in the stage of changing your voice as a singer. It is still unknown whether you can gain a foothold in the highly competitive Japanese music scene. However, the career life of actors is often longer than that of singers. I hope you can also Try to convince the agent and firm to seize this opportunity."

Aragaki Yui once again bowed and thanked, "I will work hard, thank you for your kindness."

After talking about business, Song Yi saw that it was getting late, so he asked Yui Aragaki and Masami Nagasawa to notify their managers to pick them up. If it's inconvenient, he can also call a taxi for you. Taxi fares in Japan are very expensive and are not affordable for ordinary people.

Yui Aragaki's agent is a middle-aged woman. When she saw that Yui Aragaki was not drinking and fully clothed, her eyes softened a bit when she looked at Song Yi.

Sitting in her agent's car, Yui Aragaki changed her usual silence and talked endlessly about what she had seen today. Only then did the agent learn that Song Yi was a Korean entertainment tycoon. The company owned many well-known artists such as Jun Ji-hyun, Song Hye-kyo, and Go Hyun-jung.

Yui Aragaki asked her agent cautiously, "New Asia Pictures invited me to participate in the audition for their company's new movie "If Love Has a Will". This movie is also a new film directed by Director Guo Zaiyong. The audition will be held in Japan. What do you think, President? Will you agree to let me star in a film produced by New Asia Pictures?"

The manager was slightly startled when he heard Yui Aragaki say this, "I will report this matter to the president and try my best to help you fight for it."

At noon the next day, Jin Xiyuan drove over to pick up Song Yi, and the two of them went to have lunch together. Yokohama and Tokyo are only about 20 kilometers apart, and it only takes half an hour to drive there.

"Can a Korean driver's license be used in Japan?" Song Yi originally thought that Jin Xiyuan would call a taxi to meet him.

"Of course a Korean driver's license cannot be used in Japan, but I did obtain an international driver's license. When I was working for Korean Air, I wanted to drive around the world, so I obtained an international driver's license (IDP)." Kim Hee-won laughed. answer.

Song Yi and Jin Xiyuan went to try the ramen shop Tsuta at noon. This is a Michelin-starred ramen shop. Their secret thick soup and well-cooked soup base are their specialties. The price is not expensive, and two servings of ramen only cost four. More than a thousand yen.

"Every time I flew to Tokyo, I would invite my colleagues to eat at this restaurant, but for some reason, I suddenly felt that today's ramen was not as delicious as before." Jin Xiyuan felt disappointed.

Song Yi didn't think it was surprising. Korean ramen generally tasted average. It was a rare visit to Japan, so naturally he found Tsuta's various flavors of ramen very delicious.

There are two chefs in Song Yi's family, one is responsible for Chinese food, and the other is responsible for Western food and pastries. After Jin Xiyuan got used to eating Chinese food, her taste was naturally different.

Song Yi looked at the busy chefs in the kitchen and suddenly had an inspiration. He said to Jin Xiyuan: "In the future, we can produce a food program and invite chefs from China, Japan and South Korea to compete on the same stage, using the food in the refrigerators of the celebrities' homes. Ingredients, and then make the food on the spot, and then invite the guests who recorded the show to taste the food together.”

Once talking about work, Kim Hee-won immediately became more serious, "Using the refrigerator in the celebrity's home? Are you moving the refrigerator in the celebrity's home to the TV station for recording? What if the ingredients in the refrigerator are damaged due to a power outage during transportation?"

Song Yi laughed, "This is just a gimmick of the show. In fact, as fans, they will be curious about whether the celebrities cook and what they put in their refrigerators. We don't have to actually move their refrigerators to the show. on site."

"We only need to place a refrigerator of the same type as the one in the celebrity's home at the show site, and then put the same ingredients in it. Of course, in order to reflect the authenticity of the show, during the recording process, we can also film the transportation of the refrigerator into TV station process." Song Yi said.

The program Song Yi was talking about was JTBC TV station's variety show "Please Help the Refrigerator". Later, the copyright of this program was bought by Penguin Video. The mainland version of "Please Take Care of the Refrigerator" was co-hosted by Mr. He and Wang Jiaer. It was filmed for a total of six seasons. It is also a rare longevity variety show on Penguin Video.

When Jin Xiyuan heard Song Yi talk about the details of the variety show, she felt more and more that the show was interesting.

Unlike "X-Man", "Please Refrigerator" is a talk show, which mainly depends on the on-the-spot reactions of the participating guests.

Yoo Jae Suk's contract with MBC has ended. Yoo Jae Suk joined New Asia Agency as a personal agency and became the first MC under New Asia Media.

"X-Man" has started recording, and Lee Hyori, Kim Jong Kook, and Sung Yuri have already participated in the recording of the first episode. The first program will be broadcast on SBS TV station in mid-July.

Kim Hee-won went to the SBS studio hall to watch the recording process of "X-Man". The SBS staff were also amused by the performance of the guests. They obviously liked this indoor variety show very much.

Although the cooperation with SBS is quite pleasant, Kim Hee-won has no plans to hand over the program "Please Give Me to the Refrigerator" to SBS.

At present, New Asia Media maintains good cooperative relations with the three major TV stations and does not favor any one TV station.

For example, "Winter Sonata" was handed over to KBS TV station, "X-Man" was handed over to SBS, and the drama "Dae Jang Geum" in the second half of the year is scheduled to be broadcast on MBC TV station.

Considering that New Asia Media is preparing to apply for a wireless TV station next year, "Please Help the Refrigerator" can be used as New Asia TV's own variety show. After all, as Song Yi said, this is a longevity variety show, different from "X-Man".

As for the host of the show "Please Take Care of the Refrigerator", there is still a main MC and a deputy MC configuration.

There is no more suitable candidate for the main MC besides Yoo Jae Suk. As for the deputy MC candidates, Song Yi suggested changing them every season, choosing popular members of the popular idol team in the same year for each season.

According to Song Yi's idea, he plans to set the deputy MC for the first season as TVXQ's Jung Yunho. For the second season, the deputy MC can be replaced by SJ's Kim Heechul. For the third season, the MC is tentatively scheduled to be SS501's Kim Hyun Joong, and then for the fourth season. Girls' Generation's Kim Taeyeon.

If New Asia Media starts applying for a wireless TV station in 2003, then New Asia TV will officially start broadcasting in the second half of 2004. According to the time calculation, Girls' Generation should have already debuted by the time of the fourth season of the show, and Kim Taeyeon is almost perfect as the deputy MC.

As a self-produced variety show of New Asia TV, Song Yi will definitely use "Please Help the Refrigerator" to increase the popularity and exposure of New Asia Media artists. In Song Yi's eyes, SM Entertainment's artists are considered family members, so there is no need to take advantage of outsiders.

After eating ramen, Song Yi and Jin Xiyuan went to visit NHK TV station together. The negotiations with NHK TV station went very smoothly, and Song Yi did not bother with the cost of introducing the TV series.

NHK TV station is preparing to broadcast "Winter Sonata" on the satellite channel NHK BS-2. If the broadcast effect is significant, NHK TV station will broadcast the drama on the flagship terrestrial channel.

Although he doesn't care about the TV drama copyright fee, Song Yi cares about other aspects of income from "Winter Sonata". New Asia Pictures and NHK made an agreement, requiring both partners to equally share the peripheral income from the video tape, DVD and book of the same name of "Winter Sonata". Song Yi knew that this was the biggest share.

In fact, after NHK broadcast "Winter Sonata", the video tapes, DVDs and books of this TV series were also sold out. NHK relied on "Winter Sonata" to reverse the trend of declining sales and profits in 2002.

The DVD of "Winter Sonata" is not cheap. A set costs 3,400 yen. The DVD alone has sold hundreds of thousands of sets in Japan. "Winter Sonata" has brought 3.5 billion yen (about 236 million) to NHK TV station. million yuan).

Only after "Winter Sonata" set off a drama-watching frenzy in Japan did NHK TV station know how wise Song Yi's decision to ask for an equal share of the peripheral income from video tapes, DVDs and books was, but that was a story for a later time.

Song Yi promised that the male and female leads of "Winter Sonata" Bae Yong Joon and Song Hye Kyo would come to Japan to participate in NHK's variety show to promote "Winter Sonata". New Asia Network (Japan) Co., Ltd. will also place inschool advertisements on NHK TV.

Song Hye Kyo has no new TV drama shooting plans in the second half of the year, and her focus in the second half of the year will be on the Japanese market. New Asia Management will also set up an office in Japan, which will specialize in serving New Asia artists and connecting with the Japanese market.

Because the territory is small and the population is not large, Korean entertainment companies attach great importance to the Japanese market. For example, SM Entertainment established SM Japan very early.

TVXQ, SuperJunior, Girls' Generation and EXO have all released Japanese albums, and Girls' Generation has frequently come to Japan to hold concerts. The Japanese commercial performances, endorsements and concert work of these groups were later handed over to Aihui Records.

If New Asia Agency sets up an agency in Japan, then the agency can take over this part of the work. There is no need for Ai to return to the record industry to earn this money. If inschool can take root in the Japanese market, New Asia Agency can quickly grow into a giant entertainment company in the Japanese market relying on the resources of inschool Japan.

In the next few days, Song Yi and Jin Xiyuan traveled around Tokyo and, under the guidance of a real estate agent, visited all the office buildings in Tokyo. Song Yi knew that rent in Tokyo was very expensive, but the rent price still made him feel sad.

Song Yi originally wanted to place the office of New Asia Network (Japan) Co., Ltd. in the port area, but the rent in the port area was really unbearable for New Asia Network (Japan) Co., Ltd. In the end, Song Yi settled on Shibuya, which is next door to the Microsoft Japan headquarters.

In addition to the office space, Song Yi also quickly finalized the CEO candidate of New Asia Network (Japan) Co., Ltd. This person was recommended by Masayoshi Son and was named Tsuyoshi Nezawa.

Izawa just graduated from the University of Tokyo and has many years of experience in the Internet industry. He previously worked at Microsoft Japan, Yahoo Japan and ZHD. Song Yi conducted a one-on-one interview with him and was quite satisfied with his personal abilities, so he hired him immediately.

The registered capital of New Asia Networks (Japan) Co., Ltd. is 1 billion yen, of which SoftBank invested 200 million yen, accounting for 20% of the shares.

Of course, Song Yi cannot let Son take advantage of this for nothing. The two parties have also made many additional agreements. Yahoo Japan and Z Holding will invest resources to help inschool promote. For example, inschool will choose Japanese idol star Kimura Takuya to serve as inschool’s Japan representative. Spokesperson.

When Dezago learned that the team of New Asia Network (Korea) Co., Ltd. had developed a web game "Happy Farm" specifically for inschool Japanese users, he also breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that Song Yi had already thought about it. How to open up the situation in the Japanese market.

In fact, "Happy Farm" has already been launched in the mainland market. As long as you register for a New Asia Network Pass, you can play this web game. Xinya Network Pass can also directly log into the school network and automatically generate a school network account.

Xinya Network Puhai Branch has launched the Xinya Game Hall, which contains many chess and card games, such as Happy Landlord, Happy Mahjong, Happy Chess, Happy Backgammon, etc.

At this time, the mainland game industry already had the saying of "North Lianzhong, South Xinya", but with the help of "Happy Farm", a simple and easy-to-play vegetable-stealing game, many users of Lianzhong Games have been taken away.

Lianzhong founder Bao Yueqiao also criticized Song Yi for not respecting martial ethics and only plagiarizing the Lianzhong game interface, which is a serious infringement. If it were in the Japanese, Korean or European and American markets that attach great importance to copyright protection, New Asia Network would have gone bankrupt long ago.

Guo Haibin, general manager of New Asia Network Puhai Branch, responded to Bao Yueqiao's remarks, "I have always respected the predecessors of Internet companies. Lianzhong Games is just a game aggregation platform. Board games such as Landlord, Mahjong, Xiangqi, and Backgammon were not invented by Lianzhong. How can we talk about plagiarism? On the contrary, Lianzhong Games urgently launched a food-stealing game, which copied many ideas from "Happy Farm", and Mr. Bao's appearance is a bit ugly."

While Guo Haibin and Bao Yueqiao were going back and forth and quarreling with each other, Song Yi remained silent. Xinya Game Hall has indeed taken away many game users from Lianzhong. His purpose is to take Lianzhong's path and leave Lianzhong with no way to go.

Xinya Game Hall will update a new game every week, and he is ready to kill Lianzhong Games through a sea of ​​​​machine tactics similar to those in the mobile phone industry. As long as players find that the number of games in Lianzhong Game Hall is far less than that of Xinya Game Hall, Lianzhong will not be able to survive for long.

Song Yi ignored the online public opinion war. Although Bao Yueqiao hoped to draw the flames of war to him, he had no interest in responding. In Song Yi's view, Lianzhong only had a first-mover advantage, and Lianzhong's games would be eliminated by picky Internet users sooner or later.

At this time, he and Jin Xiyuan had flown to London and looked at the mansion on Kensington Street. Kensington Street is a famous wealthy area in London, known as "Billionaire's Row". The residents who live here are either rich or wealthy. Song Yi plans to buy a building here and give it to Jin Xiyuan.

If Song Yi successfully acquires Manchester United in the past two years, then the most suitable person to manage this club is Jin Xiyuan.

Song Yi will fly to the United States to get a wedding certificate with Kim Tae Hee this summer. He knows that every woman longs for a wedding, and Kim Hee Won is no exception. He couldn't give Jin Xiyuan a status, so he could only make up for it in other ways.

In Song Yi's heart, the British real estate and Manchester United club shares will be left to Jin Xiyuan and their children. If Kim Hee-won is pregnant, letting her give birth in London can also hide her from the eyes of Korean paparazzi.

Thanks to everyone for your monthly votes. I blocked a chapter out of nowhere, ugh.
