Peninsula Asteroid

When she saw the phone ringing and her manager's name was displayed, she put down her fork while eating something, wiped the corners of her mouth gracefully with a tissue, then picked up the phone and answered it.

Kim Taeyeon didn't pay much attention at first. After taking a look, she continued to eat her own food. However, after listening to the two sentences on the phone, she immediately raised her eyebrows and looked over instantly.

"...Oppa, now?"

"Yes, didn't you say that I would notify you as soon as there is news about this matter? Things at GUCCI have already made progress. I heard that the list of partners has been released. I just received the news. I just happened to I'm in the company, and I'm on my way there now..."

A man's voice came from the phone, which sounded a little urgent and a little joyful: "Yooner, you have a TV series shooting today. See if you can make time now. If it is confirmed that we will get the cooperation later, If so, you may have to come to the company..."

Kim Taeyeon recognized that it was Son Ha-yong, Lim Yoona's personal manager, and what he said made people couldn't help but prick up their ears.

"Today's scene is relatively late. I'm having dinner with Taeyeon and Unnie at the moment. If necessary, I can ask for leave later."

After hearing this, Lin Yoona immediately cheered up and said a few words to the phone. Then she hesitated a little and lowered her voice. She was very expectant and asked with some worry about gain and loss: "Oppa, is there a good chance?"

"Don't worry."

The confident tone of the agent Sun Ha-yong over there made Lin Yoon-ah's eyes brighten: "I have had dinner with Minister Li several times about this matter. You must know that Minister Li Jun is the one who first negotiated with GUCCI." I participated in the negotiations when we were collaborating, and later I met G He has always been responsible for the communication with UCCI, and he is also in charge of this cooperation. He just hinted to me a few days ago that Yoona, you are the main fashion promoter of the company's female artists, and GUCCI values ​​​​it very much. The company’s suggestion, so it’s definitely close to the mark.”

Kim Taeyeon watched Lin Yoon-ah holding her cell phone and talking, with a happy, excited and expectant smile on her face. She finally said, "That's it... I'll wait until you hear from Oppa" and then hung up the phone.

Then, with a reserved and elegant expression on her face, the little girl hummed a song softly, picked up the fork and fed a small tomato into her mouth. The smile on her face became even brighter under the sunlight shining through the floor-to-ceiling windows. Dazzling.

Although she was a little dissatisfied with the pretentious expressions and actions of the second maknae, and she probably heard the content of the call, Kim Taeyeon couldn't help but feel curious, and asked casually, pretending not to care: "That GUCCI Cooperation, done?”

"Not yet~"

Lin Yoona chewed the fruit and squinted at the silkworm, gently waving her hand: "Ha Yong and Oppa are rushing over now... I just said that the chance is very high."

"Then you are going to the company later?"

“Let’s read the news from Oppa Ha Yong~”

Although she was speaking modestly, when Kim Taeyeon saw the smile on Lin Yoona's expression, she knew that the maknae was very confident.

In an instant, the lunch that Jin Taeyeon had eaten so enthusiastically just now suddenly felt tasteless. She chewed it dryly for two times, swallowed it hard and exhaled unconsciously: "Huh..."

It's really... a bit enviable.

After the news of this cooperation with GUCCI came out, it caused quite a stir in a certain area. Many people in the company wanted it. As far as Kim Taeyeon knows, Yunho from TVXQ, BOA, and SJ, as long as it is for activities Those who have had certain connections and connections for a while have tried to win over them, not to mention those from the junior group.

And she herself is very greedy... Even though her short stature does not seem to match fashion, but which female idol doesn't like fashion and luxury?

It's a pity that I tried to earn it but couldn't win.

And looking at Lin Yoon-ah, who has a cheerful face and is obviously in a good mood across from her, Kim Taeyeon can't help but feel a little jealous even though she is a member who has been in the same group for many years and has a good relationship with her.

This maknae has been really lucky lately.

Isn't it really a transfer?

Feeling sour in her heart, after chatting for a few words about endorsements, Kim Taeyeon couldn't bear it any longer and took the initiative to change the topic and mentioned their Girls' Generation's new album: "By the way, I have asked Jingyuan about our album. "

Hearing this, Lin Yoona also became interested and looked over: "He agreed?"

Although she can't sing well and has very few parts in the group's songs, and is now focusing on her career as an actress, the group Girls' Generation is also of extraordinary significance and irreplaceable to her. For this last album, Lin Yoona, He also takes it very seriously and is willing to contribute his own strength.

"Well, he will try to write songs, and then he will also look at the company's music library to see if there are any songs suitable for us... He has surprisingly wide authority in the company's music library. Basically, he can play any song of any style and type. Listen and use it, tsk tsk, it’s much better than us.”

Although Kim Taeyeon curled her lips, her tone contained a hint of pride. She picked up the coffee and took a sip. She also praised seriously: "Jingyuan is very reliable in terms of professionalism." , I’m really looking forward to what music he can write this time.”

As she said that, Kim Taeyeon thought of something and her brows jumped: "Actually, I told him about this a long time ago, but this guy didn't seem to take it to heart... But this time it should be no problem."

"If Jingyuan can help, then I'll be relieved."

Lin Yoona, who also recognized Chi Jingyuan's professional ability, was relieved when she heard this: "Then should I continue to contact the composer I know?"

"Let's get in touch." Kim Taeyeon started eating again: "An album needs at least eight songs, and what he wrote this time may not necessarily be the title song."

"Yeah, but Ernie, last time he served as the producer for your solo debut album, what did you think of Jingyuan?"

"It's amazing." After the girl finished speaking, she confirmed again with an emphasis: "It's really amazing."

Lin Yoona came up with an idea: "Then if possible, you might as well ask him to be the producer of our album. Anyway, the company doesn't pay much attention to it. We leave many things to ourselves..."

Kim Taeyeon was obviously a little moved, but after thinking about it, she still shook her head: "They will also be very busy next time. They will be overseas this year. He may not be in Seoul when we are making the album."

"Oh, that's it~" Lin Yuner nodded, and while sipping her coffee elegantly, she asked, "By the way, how is Jingyuan's injury? I thought about going to visit him before, but he refused and said no."

"It's not just you, we were all rejected. That kid only allowed..."

When Kim Taeyeon heard this, she immediately shared the same hatred. However, when she was about to complain that he only allowed girls with a special relationship to visit, she felt that this was a very private matter, so she immediately stopped and changed her words: "He was seriously injured this time. There was a big hole in my head, and it’s still bandaged.”

"But it seems that he is recovering well. He said that the stitches should be removed in two days..."

Talking about the news she knew, Kim Taeyeon recalled the previous agreement, looked at Lin Yoona and asked proactively: "By the way, we made an appointment with Jingyuan to go out to have a meal and play together on the 22nd, as a way to catch up with him... Yun Are you going?"

"Okay~"

When Lin Yuner heard this, she didn't even mention that she had a movie to film in the past few days. She nodded without hesitation and Yudu nodded directly: "Unnie, let's go together then."

As she said that, she suddenly laughed, her eyes widened as if she was coquettishly saying: "By the way, if I can cooperate with GUCCI this time, I would also like to thank Jingyuan..."

Just as he was talking, the phone that had been sitting next to him rang again. Lin Yoona looked at the caller and picked it up with a smile and answered the call.

It’s probably finalized~

Kim Taeyeon secretly thought in her mind that she just had an idea, but she suddenly saw Lin Yoona's expression on the opposite side suddenly changed, and her voice suddenly became sharp and she lost her voice in surprise: "Didn't you get it?"

From being elegant and reserved just now, he turned into surprise and disbelief.

She didn't want to hear it, but she immediately pricked up her ears and heard Son Ha-yong speaking quickly in the same urgent and horrified tone on the phone from Lin Yoon-ah:

"...Not only did we not get it, but many artists who I heard had great chances didn't get it either."

“The latest news is that GUCCI’s invitation to collaborate this time is Irene from red velvlet, and Sehun from EXO. In addition, there seems to be an artist from JYP, but GUCCI didn’t say anything about it, and Minister Lee doesn’t know yet. Who is it?”

She was already a little anxious. When she heard the names of the final winners, Lin Yoona frowned in disbelief: "Why them? And I remember that their names were not included in the previously determined list."

"Yes, they were not on the previous list at all. All the artists on the company's previous list were all rejected. I heard that Minister Li said that this was a decision made directly by GUCCI. There was no intention to discuss it with the company, and he has not done it now. Know what’s going on…”

The manager's voice on the other side of the phone was also full of impatience and anger. He was no less confused and horrified than Lin Yoona.

Thinking that Kim Taeyeon was still facing her, Lin Yoon-ah tried her best to suppress the negative emotions in her heart. After taking a few deep breaths, she asked in a calm voice: "So, are we not destined for this cooperation?" bar?"

The huge expectations that she had before were thrown into the abyss, and her excellent mood was ruined. Lin Yuner really wanted to get angry at this moment, and a burst of air was blocked in her chest and she wanted to explode.

But she is not someone who gets angry for no reason. This kind of thing is beyond their control. She also knows that her manager is very capable and she has worked very hard.

"Yooner, don't worry, I'll go find out what's going on and see if there's anything wrong." Sun Heyong's voice was still urgent, and even the background sound was a little noisy: "The company doesn't do it either. Knowing what happened, Minister Li and the others were all panicked."

"I know Oppa."

However, Lin Yoona didn't hold out much hope. She squeezed out a smile and said goodbye before hanging up the phone.

Then there was silence immediately.

To be honest, she has been looking forward to this resource and this most luxurious title for a long time. If she gets it, it will be of great help to her career in fashion.

Lin Yoona had been working in the company for a long time for this title, and had mobilized a lot of her connections. With the efforts of her manager, she finally crossed the threshold.

Coupled with the fact that her agent has been reporting good news, Lin Yoona's expectations have been raised a lot. She was even a little excited after receiving the call from her agent just now.

However, the news of losing the election was like a thunderbolt, especially when she heard that a few juniors actually got the resources. At this time, she felt full of irritation and anger.

And... some uncontrollable embarrassment.

Because Kim Taeyeon is sitting opposite.

Although this girl looked down and ate indifferently, her little eyes and eyebrows glanced in her direction countless times.

Thinking that she had looked confident and proud just now, preparing to receive the most luxurious title, Lin Yoona felt very embarrassed at this moment.

...even more embarrassing than not getting the title. She has always had a strong self-esteem and is very concerned about face.

Kim Taeyeon pretended for a long time and had finished all the noodles in the bowl. She couldn't hold it anymore and couldn't hold back her curiosity. She finally raised her head and looked over carefully: "Yooner, are you okay? What's wrong?"

"..."

The corners of Lin Yoona's mouth twitched unnaturally twice, and she repeated the news she just heard in a seemingly calm voice.

"ah?"

When Kim Taeyeon heard the latest news, she couldn't help but open her mouth in great surprise, thinking that she had heard it wrong.

She is very aware of Lin Yoona's abilities. This woman is a born actress, has great connections and resources, and is also very likable.

When she heard that Lin Yoon-ah couldn't get it, Kim Taeyeon thought it was some seniors from other companies, such as BOA and Yunho, and she would understand if people like Yunho cut off the money.

But what is the situation with the juniors, Bae Joo Hyun and Oh Sehun? And where did that JYP guy come from?

"Are Irene and others recommended by the company?" Kim Taeyeon thought for a while and asked tentatively.

"Ani." Lin Yuner shook her head, holding the fork tightly in her hand and mashing the salad, and said in a calm voice: "It's not on the list at all~"

"That's strange. Logically speaking, the company wouldn't force them to flatter them, and they didn't..."

Kim Taeyeon repeated the murmurs of these people to herself. She always felt that these names seemed to have a very familiar connection.

She was thinking here, and Lin Yuner was using silence to relieve the resentment and embarrassment in her heart. The atmosphere where they were chatting and laughing just now suddenly became silent.

The people who were chatting and laughing just now fell silent.

Two minutes later, the cell phone next to her rang again. This time, Lin Yoona didn't answer the phone as quickly as the previous two times. Instead, she first glanced at the caller, then furtively observed Kim Taeyeon, and waited for a few seconds. It took a few seconds before he picked up.

"Oppa..."

"...Yoona, I just made inquiries. The company did not expect the results this time. It was very different from the results expected by the company, so the company quickly contacted the familiar staff at GUCCI... …”

"...It seems that the company had discussed internally and handed over the list to GUCCI, which was the spot we were competing for...but GUCCI seemed to have asked Jingyuan Xi for his suggestion...I only found out after listening to Minister Li. The most luxurious relationships and connections between the company and Europe were all established through Jingyuan Xicai. This further cooperation is also because of him. He has more say than the company..."

"The company tried to communicate with GUCCI again, but the brand side was very firm... After knowing that it was Jingyuan Xi's idea, the company could not forcefully refuse and replace people." Sun Heyong's deep voice came from the phone. : "So this time... it probably can't be changed."

Lin Yoona quietly listened to the news from her agent, looked down at the table, her nose trembled slightly unnaturally, and finally responded in a low voice: "Yes."

"Yoonah..." Sun Hayong, who knew Lin Yuner very well, heard her tone and knew that she must be very annoyed, and he wanted to say something with concern.

However, Lin Yoona interrupted the other party and forced out a smile: "It's okay, Oppa."

Seeing Lin Yoona hang up the phone, Kim Taeyeon, who had just heard the content, clapped her hands suddenly and reacted: "Yes, I'm just telling you, I always feel that Irene and Sehun have crossed you, and Yunho Oh It’s strange for Ba and the others to get the title, but it’s not their turn... It took a long time because of Jingyuan’s influence.”

Her eyebrows danced, and she said quickly as if she was surveying the sky: "Look, one of these two people is his good friend, and the other is his ex-girlfriend who he is still in contact with... As for the one in JYP who doesn't know the information, I Let me tell you, it’s 100% Twice’s Mina, his current girlfriend!”

"Yeah..." Kim Taeyeon cursed as if she was filled with righteous indignation: "This kid Jingyuan, do you bring your whole family to grab resources? Have you given them all to those who are close to him?"

"But..." Kim Taeyeon's voice suddenly became smaller: "He is really generous..."

This is GUCCI's title resource. A bunch of people in the company, including Lin Yoona in front of me, were trying to grab it. In the end, Chi Jingyuan didn't need it himself, so he gave it away casually!

You must know that there are many close friends and relatives in the entertainment industry, and even male and female friends, but resources are not enough for themselves, and they rarely help their friends. Chi Jingyuan, who directly provides top resources to friends and women, It is simply rare.

He even brought his ex-girlfriend with him...

Kim Taeyeon didn't believe that Bae Joo Hyun, the little idol girl who wasn't much praised, could suddenly receive top-notch resources and become a ghost because she had nothing to do with Ji Kyung Won.

While thinking about it, she suddenly remembered what she said to Chi Jingyuan in the music room two days ago. Thinking back to Chi Jingyuan's weird expression at that time, she reacted instantly.

This person has long known that Lin Yuner has no chance at all, so he has such a weird and uncontrollable expression, and he also said something like "her chance is a hundred times".

A hundred times of zero is still zero.

Wait, so I am also zero in his heart?

Ah.

Kim Taeyeon, who thought she had a very close relationship with Chi Jingyuan, suddenly felt a little indignant, but when she looked at Lin Yuner across from her and blinked her eyes, she couldn't help but feel a little bit of smugness in her heart.

Although she had a good relationship with Yoona, Kim Taeyeon couldn't help but feel jealous when she knew that she could get GUCCI resources. Now it suddenly became much smoother... I hope my friend lives well, but I don't want her to live too well.

This is a very contradictory but very real heart.

Lin Yuner in front of her lowered her head slightly and looked at the salad in front of her, with a calm expression and no waves in her eyes, and even her coquettish flesh was honest and didn't show off.

Based on Kim Taeyeon's understanding of Lin Yuner, the youngest member must be angry.

Yes, she had worked so hard to promote and strive for it before, and finally squeezed in. If nothing unexpected happened, there was a high probability that she could get this resource that would be very helpful to her career, but now it was easily given to someone else.

It felt like no matter how much she competed for connections... it was not as direct as finding a boyfriend who was capable, reliable and generous.

She even boasted a little in front of her friends and sisters before, but now it turned out to be such a result... If it were Kim Taeyeon herself, she would definitely feel annoyed and embarrassed.

Kim Taeyeon, whose emotional intelligence instantly occupied the high ground, suppressed the excessive joy in her heart, managed her expression, looked at Lin Yuner, and gently called out: "Yooner~"

Unfortunately, the youngest member just pursed her lips and didn't say anything, obviously angry.

Kim Taeyeon paused for a few seconds, then poked her head out and asked in a low voice: "Um... I just told you that we will go out together in a few days to welcome Jingyuan. Are you still going?"

Lin Yoona, who had been silent, changed her expression instantly after hearing this. Her eyes were sharp, her teeth were lightly bitten, her eyebrows were raised, and her calm face immediately became exciting.

She looked at Kim Taeyeon, showing a gnashing smile, and the fork in her hand pierced a banana in the salad directly: "Go, why not~"

"Didn't I just say that I want to thank him!"
