king of korean entertainment

In the afternoon, Kim Sung-won and Mr. Jung Joo-won came to Kim Jong-kook's agency - istarmedia, which originally signed Kim Jong-kook's contract with 700 million won for two albums.

Kim Sung-won had already spoken to Kim Jong-kook on the phone beforehand, so Kim Jong-kook was waiting for the two of them outside the company early.

"Brother Jong Kook," Kim Sung Won shook hands with Kim Jong Kook with a smile on his face. Kim Jong Kook's manager was standing nearby. Before the two parties reached an agreement, Kim Sung Won tried his best to avoid being too close to Kim Jong Kook.

Kim Jong Kook obviously understood this, and after greeting Zheng Joo Won, he introduced his agent to them.

"Seung-won, how many songs have you composed now?" Kim Jong-kook asked hesitantly after taking the two of them to his lounge. Even if Kim Seung-won cannot reach a contract with the company, he hopes to buy the songs composed by Kim Seung-won.

, he believes that Jin Shengyuan’s songs are completely tailor-made for him and are the most suitable for him.

"Three songs, 'Lovely', 'Standing in Place', and 'Stars, Wind, Sunshine and Love,'" Kim Sung-won said, "but the lyrics of the last song have not been completed yet."

"Well," Kim Jong-guo nodded and said to his agent, "Brother Shijun, please contact the company director."

"Okay," Kim Jong-kook's manager said goodbye to Kim Seung-won and the two of them and walked out.

"Seung Won, thank you for the song "One Man"," Kim Jong Kook is a very humble person, perhaps because he has experienced too many hardships, but he is very polite to everyone around him.

"I would also like to thank Zhong Guoge for perfectly interpreting the emotion of this song," Jin Shengyuan said with a smile. When there were no outsiders, his words were much more casual.

"Well," Kim Jong Kook was speechless again. It was obvious that he was very worried about the third album. His current achievements were still far from his goal. The success or failure of the third album was directly related to his future destiny - it was a flash in the pan.

Or go one step further.

After a while, Kim Jong Kook's manager returned to the lounge and invited Kim Sung Won and Zheng Joo Won to the conference room.

The man in charge of negotiating with Jin Shengyuan and the others was a man in an orthodox suit. He was about forty years old, with slightly white temples. He wore a pair of gold-rimmed glasses and had a very easy-going attitude. He was not as strong as many senior managers of brokerage companies.

aura.

After a brief introduction, both parties began to gradually test each other's bottom line.

Kim Sung-won just sat quietly and listened. He was not good at negotiating. Naturally, Zheng Ju-won and his assistant negotiated with the other party. Although Kim Jong-kook's third album was taken over by Kim Sung-won, he was only the producer.

, the real parties to the transaction are Kim Jong Kook’s agency and Jung Joo Won’s music studio.

Although Zheng Zhuyuan's ** music room is small in scale, with the support of his reputation, he refused to show weakness in the negotiations. The two sides seemed to be in a tug of war, preparing to chip away at the other party's confidence bit by bit.

Although he didn't understand much about the negotiations between the two parties, Jin Shengyuan listened very carefully and expressed his attitude.

Although the two parties did not leave the show to rest like what was shown on TV, they did have several tea breaks. It was not until the sky got dark that the two parties formally reached an agreement.

"Hello, Director Huang, I would like to talk about the sale of three songs I composed," Jin Shengyuan said when the other party was about to stand up and leave.

"We will naturally send someone to discuss this matter with you, don't worry," Director Huang looked at Jin Shengyuan with a smile and said.

"My request is very simple, three songs, 300 million won." Jin Shengyuan shook his head and said.

"What?" Director Huang could no longer maintain his demeanor and looked at Jin Shengyuan as if he were a "madman".

Strictly speaking, asking for 100 million won for a good song is not expensive, but with Kim Seung-won's current status, it is inevitable that such a price would be a bit fanciful. Although he composed five good songs last year, he only composed

It’s just a newcomer who has five songs! How much does a song by a newcomer writer cost? Between 5 million won and 10 million won. Even if Kim Sung-won is rated as a "new composer", 30 million won for a song is already considered top-notch.

Unexpectedly, he dared to offer a price of 100 million won per song. This is the price that top composers dare to offer for a song that has been carefully composed.

Jin Shengyuan certainly did not make this request to make the other party laugh at him, so when everyone was surprised, he continued: "I can guarantee that the quality of these three songs is no worse than "One Man"."

"How can you guarantee this? We are a management company, not a music critic. No matter how good a song is, it is useless if it is not recognized by fans!" Director Huang did not sit down, but stood directly next to the table, staring.

Jin Shengyuan asked.

"It's just based on my analysis of the market." Kim Seung-won's expression remained unchanged as he continued: "Otherwise, if Kim Jong-kook doesn't win the final grand prize from the three major radio stations at the end of this year, I won't get a single point for these three songs. I will get two.

I want 400 million won for the grand prize; if Kim Jong Kook wins the Triple Crown, I want 600 million won!"

"Triple crown?" Director Huang almost laughed out loud. He had already defined the young man in front of him as an arrogant character. He immediately softened his tone and said to Jin Shengyuan: "Young people should not be too arrogant. Confidence is good, but complacency is good.

It’s not going to be good.”

"Don't Director Huang dare to sign this contract?" Jin Shengyuan ignored the other party's "advice" and continued.

Director Huang was finally irritated by Jin Shengyuan's attitude. He glanced at Zheng Zhuyuan and saw that he had no expression. He nodded and said: "Since you insist on this, then write this in when we sign the contract."

"No problem, happy cooperation!" Jin Shengyuan smiled heartily and stretched out his hand.

Director Huang didn't know where Jin Shengyuan's confidence came from, but he absolutely believed in his own judgment and without any hesitation, he gently shook Jin Shengyuan's hand and said goodbye to Zheng Zhuyuan again.

Zheng Zhuyuan did not interfere in Jin Shengyuan's negotiations at all, because that was Jin Shengyuan's power. Zheng Zhuyuan might give advice, but he would never interfere after Jin Shengyuan made a decision.

Moreover, Zheng Zhuyuan knew that Jin Shengyuan would occasionally be too stubborn on something, and no one could change his decision. Therefore, he would not do such useless work, not to mention that even without the income from those three songs, Jin Shengyuan

And the producer's salary.

How can one achieve success without experiencing failure and hardship? This is Zheng Zhuyuan's philosophy. His attitude towards Kim Sung-won is not like that of traditional Koreans, who would like to pour a model and press him into it to process it. What he adopted

It is a "free-range" attitude. He regards himself as a simple guide, pointing out the direction for Jin Shengyuan and introducing the pros and cons, but he will not force the other party to go where.

"Are you going back with me or by yourself later?" Zheng Zhuyuan asked before leaving.

"I can just go back by myself, thank you, teacher." Jin Shengyuan said as he walked Zheng Zhuyuan to the door.

"Let's go, I'll treat you to dinner." After Zheng Zhuyuan left, Kim Jong-kook said to Kim Sung-won.

"Shengyuan, the contract you proposed is very unfavorable to you," Jin Jongguo invited Jin Shengyuan to dinner. After hesitating for a moment, he said to him, "I think if you work hard, you may get one big reward, two big prizes."

It’s so small, it’s impossible to win the Triple Crown.”

"It doesn't matter, brother Zhong Guo, you have to have confidence in yourself." Jin Shengyuan said nonchalantly. Through simple contact and the descriptions of Liu Zaishi and the others, Jin Shengyuan already understood Kim Jong Guo's temperament to a certain extent.

Self-discipline! This is Kim Jong Kook’s biggest characteristic. Compared with Kim Sung Won’s previous rigidity, Kim Jong Kook’s self-discipline is simply outrageous. In order to maintain his greatest advantage - his voice, Kim Jong Kook started his fitness career after his solo career and did not eat anything.

Foods containing preservatives, no fried foods, no... If any of these are imposed on Yoona, Sooyoung, and Kim Sung-won, they think they might really go crazy. But Kim Jong-kook has been doing this for several years.

keep on.

This attitude determines that Kim Jong Kook's chance of success will be one point higher than others. Coupled with the various advantages he has accumulated, it is entirely possible to win the Triple Crown.

The most important thing is that Kim Seung-won clearly felt Kim Jong-kook's strength in 2005, and the light in his mind was so clear for the first time.

That's why Jin Shengyuan proposed that seemingly absurd contract.

"However, the contract you mentioned did not mention the item with the highest probability - the situation where I win a big prize. The company will definitely make a fuss about this..." It can be seen that Kim Jong-kook sincerely regards Kim Seung-won as a good person.

Viewed by friends.

"It doesn't matter," Jin Shengyuan shook his head nonchalantly and said, "Brother Zhong Guo, you just need to work hard. There is no need to worry about other things. Which singer in South Korea can insist on performing live singing all year round with ease?"

Jin Zhongguo shook his head shyly and stopped admonishing him. He had already seen Jin Shengyuan's stubbornness.

"Want to eat chicken drumsticks? Brother Zhong Guo," Jin Shengyuan deliberately held a chicken drumstick between his legs and asked.

"You kid!" Kim Jong Kook said in a dumbfounded voice. Even if he was joking, he was rarely angry.

"Do you want me to take you back?" Kim Jong Kook asked after dinner.

"No, thank you Zhong Guo." Jin Shengyuan looked at the completely dark night sky in Seoul and said: "I used to stay at home and rarely go out, so I might as well take this opportunity to do some exercise."

"I have another announcement. I can't accompany you anymore. Goodbye," Kim Jong Kook patted Kim Seung Won's shoulder and left in the car.

Both sides of the street were brightly illuminated by street lights and car lights. Jin Shengyuan walked casually and watched. Although there was no special scenery around, it was really good to relax.

Jin Shengyuan's thoughts gradually became empty, as if he was simply walking, following the sparse flow of people and not knowing where to turn.

"Ah -" Finally, Jin Shengyuan slowly and gently recovered his thoughts. He felt relaxed and happy, and a burst of fatigue came over him. He couldn't help but open his arms and let out a big yawn.

However, before Jin Shengyuan could close his mouth, he suddenly froze and forgot to lower his arms that were raised in the air.

"Why are you here?" A crisp voice sounded with surprise at first, but turned to disdain at the end.
