The Godfather of Business Reborn

The next day, Zhao Tian took Huo Wenxi and Zhao Long, led by a Korean female employee of the company, by car to SM Company, the largest brokerage company in South Korea, located in Apgujeong-dong, Gangnam District, Seoul, South Korea.|

Speaking of this SM company, it is very famous both in the past life and in this life.

The full name of SM Company is Smentertnment, in which SM is the abbreviation of strmuseum, which means "Star Museum, Hall of Fame". It is known as the "Star-making Dream Factory" in South Korea.

SM Company was founded in February 1995 by the very famous singer Lee Soo Man in the early 1970s with his keen vision after he retired from the scene. The emergence of SM Company ushered in a new era of Korean planning companies. Later, SM Company

With its well-known groups such as Hot, SES, BoA, and Shinhwa, the company has successfully created the proper name of Hallyu star in the world.

In April 2000, sm company registered in Korea's Kosdaq market, issued shares, and became Korea's first entertainment and culture joint-stock company. Subsequently, with bo, TVXQ, superjunor, girls' generation, shnee, f(x), exo

Such super-popular artists have established their dominance in the Korean entertainment industry in one fell swoop. Zhao Tian still remembers that in his previous life, he heard some music critics saying that they had bad opinions about Korean SM stars.

When commenting on the strength of SM, he said this: It is simply impossible not to see SM artists within three months. SM has the ability to support two first-line groups at the same time. This is unlike any other Korean entertainment company.

What the company cannot do. SM artists have their own programs, the best publicity planning, the best broadcast time, and the most frequent exposure. This is the strength of SM. Not to mention other aspects, just

For the promotion of its artists, SM is the best.[

But as far as the personal development of artists is concerned, SM is really not a good choice. Their strong strength is destined to be compulsive. "Wanting to make their own music" - this kind of thing is impossible to achieve in SM, everything must be according to the company

In terms of planning, no matter whether they are newcomers or established artists, they have no autonomy and no way to express their own ideas. This is also a kind of sadness for artists. Just like in the previous life, in the end, they collectively jumped out of the nest and left SM Shinhwa.

, although God

The publicity after leaving SM is not as good as it was during SM, but they can be freer, realize their own musical ideas, can truly grow, and the space for development is greater than before. Similar to this, the same thing

There are also singers trained by SM such as Jang Woo Hyuk, tne, b, flytothesky, Han Geng, Kim Jaejoong, Kim Junsu, Park Yoochun, etc. After leaving SM, their personal development has embarked on a new path.

Of course, the development of SM Company has nothing to do with the company’s president, Lee Soo Man.|^

Lee Soo Man, a former Korean singer and entrepreneur, was born in Seoul, South Korea. In Zhao Tian's impression, in his previous life, he single-handedly created the Korean original idol group hot, ses, and then after the disbandment of hot, he single-handedly created Shinhwa, TVXQ

, BoA, superjunor, Girls' Generation, shnee, f(x), exo and many other well-known artists.

As for Lee Soo Man, he is known as the "tyrant" in the Korean entertainment industry. Although he is talented, his desire for control is well-known in the entire Korean entertainment industry, and even in Asia. It is said that the reason why he was originally

The two ancestral idol groups Hot and SES were disbanded in one move. On the one hand, it was because these two groups could no longer bring more viable benefits to the company, and on the other hand, it was because Li Xiuman was more concerned about these two groups.

It is caused by the inability to control freely.

The subsequent Shinhwa Group job-hopping incident, the split of TVXQ, Park Yoochun, Kim Jaejoong, and Kim Junsu leaving SM Entertainment, etc., are all inseparable from Lee Soo Man.

Not only that, in Zhao Tian's previous life, during the paid capital increase of SM Company in August 1998, Lee Soo Man misappropriated 1.15 billion won of SM public funds and used it as his own capital increase to invest in SM stocks, stealing tens of billions of won.

stock price spread. He was investigated by the South Korean prosecutors in 2002 and later fled to the United States1

It was not until 2004 that Lee Soo-man returned to South Korea for trial. On September 3, 2004, the Criminal Division 25 of the Seoul Central District Court found Lee Soo-man guilty and sentenced him to 2 years in prison with a three-year suspended sentence. In 2007, President Roh Moo-hyun of South Korea took office.

A special pardon was granted on the 4th anniversary, which finally freed him from prison.

Of course, in this life, none of these things happened, because before Li Xiuman embezzled public funds, Tenglong Company had privately transferred all the shares of SM Company to its own name, and then took advantage of Li Xiuman before he could react.

He deposited a large amount of money into his SM account and diluted the shares in Li Xiuman's hands until Li Xiuman realized that many of the shares in his hands had been turned into waste paper. At this time, Li Xiuman was thinking

He resisted, but it was too late. Later, because Zhao Tian had already told Luo Xiang about the Korean SM company, Luo Xiang personally went to South Korea to appease Li Xiuman, and then transferred a small amount of SM company's shares to South Korea.

He handed it over to Li Xiuman, and then he grabbed Li Xiuman and continued to make suggestions for the large collective of SM Company. Of course, at this time, SM Company had already hired the SM Company with the surname Zhao instead of the original SN with the surname Li.

At this time, standing in front of the No. 1 entertainment company in South Korea, looking at the office building with the huge SM logo in front of him, Zhao Tian couldn't help but smile. Then the many fans and paparazzi who gathered at the door were full of surprise.

Under the watchful eye, Huo Wenxi and Zhao Long were led directly into the lobby of SM under the leadership of a female employee from the Seoul branch of Tenglong Company.

After entering the hall, several SM artists and employees were standing in the company hall. After Zhao Tiansan and others walked in, they immediately saluted and bowed to Zhao Tian and said in unison

"Welcome Mr. Zhao Tian to come and inspect."

Seeing this situation, Zhao Tian couldn't help but frowned, then forced himself to smile, nodded, and then said in Korean

"You don't have to be so polite. I'm just an idler. You don't need to receive me so warmly. Doing so will make me more comfortable."

Zhao Tian's voice was slightly lowered. He thought he was a middle-aged man wearing a black suit and black-rimmed glasses, so he turned around and said with a smile on his face.

"Okay, now that Mr. Zhao has said so, you can just disperse. The artists will continue to work on your formation, and the trainees should also step up their practice. You must know that there is not much time until the monthly exams.

Well, if you don't practice harder, you will be eliminated by the company by then, so don't blame the company for being cruel."

After hearing what the middle-aged man said, everyone present couldn't help but salute to the middle-aged man and said:

"Yes, President."

After the words fell, they left the hall in groups. After everyone dispersed, the middle-aged man came to Zhao Tian with a slightly handsome Korean man, smiled, stretched out his hand, and said in English

"This must be Mr. Zhao Tian, ​​the boss of the head office. Hello, let me introduce myself. I am Lee Soo Man, the president of sm company, and the person next to me is Mr. Jin Yingmin, the director of the overseas affairs department of sm company. Zhao

Sir, Mr. Luo has already greeted you for your arrival, and the company has also arranged accommodation for the personnel you sent earlier. If Mr. Zhao needs it, I can contact Mr. Zhao at any time."

After hearing what Li Xiuman said, Zhao Tian couldn't help but smile and nodded, stretched out his hand to shake Li Xiuman's hand, and then said in Korean with a smile [

"I have heard of President Li's name for a long time. You know, I was also a fan of two popular groups, Hot and SES. I also like the mythical group in the company today."

After hearing Zhao Tian's fluent Korean, Li Xiuman couldn't help but show a hint of surprise on his face, and then said to Zhao Tian with a smile on his face.

"I didn't expect Mr. Zhao to speak Korean so fluently."

"Haha, President Li is so polite. After all, I am very optimistic about the Korean market. Since I want to develop the Korean market well, wouldn't it be easier to communicate if I learned Korean?"

After hearing Zhao Tian's words, Li Xiuman couldn't help laughing and nodded in agreement.

Later, accompanied by Lee Soo Man and Kim Young Min, Zhao Tian, ​​Huo Wenxi and Zhao Long visited SM's office building, recording studio, artist practice room and trainee practice room one by one.

When Zhao Tian and the others arrived at the small practice room located on the lower second floor of SM, they saw a very fierce quarrel taking place in the practice room.

"Ah, Jin Xiaoya, do you think that you are a senior because you are so great? Why are you so eager to bully Xiaoxian? Xiaoxian is still so young and so well-behaved. How did she offend you so that you have to hit her?

"

Zhao Tian only saw a little girl with long hair, angrily pulling a young girl with an aggrieved face, and yelled loudly at the woman opposite who was about seventeen or eighteen years old.

"Huh, what's wrong with being young? Does being young be a reason to disrespect your seniors?"

"Jin Xiaoya, please tell me clearly, why does he disrespect you?"

A little girl with a cold face stood up next to her. With frost in her eyes, she looked at the woman and said

When the woman saw the frost on the little girl's face, her heart suddenly became weak, and she shouted loudly at the little girl with a fierce look on her face.

"Ah, Jessica, is this your attitude towards your seniors? Is this how you talk to your seniors?"

"Huh, how you treat your seniors depends on what kind of seniors you are. If you are the one making trouble like this and using your reputation as a senior to pressure others, I will treat you in this way. How about it?"

After hearing what Jessica said, the woman couldn't help but look embarrassed, her eyes flashed with cold light, she looked at Jessica in front of her, sneered, and said

"Okay, very good, Jessica, today I will let you know what the consequences will be if you provoke your senior."

After saying that, Jin Xiaoya raised her hand and slapped Zheng Xiuyan on the left side of her face.
