After being reincarnated, he joined a top boy band and then lost it

The response to "Thanks" was really great, winning 8 first places in a row for Seventeen. The promotion lasted for a month, and the song stayed on the daily charts for more than a month. Most boy bands rely on sales to promote their songs, and there are very few who have such good results in both sound sources and sales like Seventeen.

During this comeback, some negative press releases also appeared on the Internet, most of which were rumors and slander. The long-idle public relations of P-Corporate were also put to use. While issuing a clarification announcement, they also combined the technical department's previous "Cage Plan" to put some brainless black fans who jumped up and down due to the popularity into the "Seventeen blacklist."

This blacklist not only includes mindless black fans and fans who insult with bad words, but also those scammers who take advantage of the mutual trust between fans to make money.

Under the joint operation of PR and "cage", the Kara group is extremely harmonious, as clean and peaceful as a utopia. The reputation of the fan group is also a very important part of publicity. Later investigations showed that some Kara people began to know Seventeen because of the overall atmosphere of Kara and the cheap and convenient purchase of albums.

Song Shengshi was not too surprised when faced with the negative press releases that appeared on the Internet. The source was too obvious, indicating that Seventeen and P-Club had finally aroused the crisis awareness of those big companies.

The booming development of Seventeen has squeezed the development space of the boy groups under their company.

This is the reality of competition. When Seventeen appeared in front of the public many times, they were in competition with other boy bands on the same track.

However, there are many ways to compete. Publishing negative news releases is a low-level method, but it is not the lowest type. At least after so many years in the Korean entertainment industry, Song Shengshi has heard about some things happening around him, such as the smell of marijuana at the Idol Games. Later, he used his own anonymous channel to send an email to report it, but it fell on deaf ears.

Some time ago, it was revealed that a company used drugs to lure and control artists with better development in rival companies. Generally speaking, artists from small companies are more careful about their reputation and will not easily touch these red-line items, but they cannot resist someone deliberately targeting them and secretly drugging them. By the time the company found out, the artists had already become controlled "drug addicts."

Press releases were everywhere, and the mainstream public had almost no tolerance for this situation. Various media outlets pounced on it as if they smelled meat, and the artist was attacked from both sides. Because he was forced to quit drinking, his reactions were very intense and he couldn't even speak clearly.

There are also various videos leaked of him kneeling down and begging frantically for the "medicine".

The artist's agency has been hit from all sides, and all artists in the same agency are facing contract termination and suspension of various activities.

Faced with huge liquidated damages, the company almost went bankrupt.

Fortunately, the uploading of an audio recording and a nightclub video later revealed all the truth and uprooted and destroyed a drug industry sales chain hidden in the dark in South Korea.

Through the confession of the person who drugged the artists and the financial transactions, the company that used drugs to control the artists was finally identified. All the artists under that company were required to undergo hair testing, and the test showed that nearly 8% of them had ingested drugs of different ingredients and concentrations. There were even five or six artists who had no idea when they were drugged.

This is also a social issue that caused a great uproar. No one knows who first uploaded the recording and the nightclub surveillance to the Internet. It is always a lose-lose result. The big company that drugged the students declared bankruptcy after the verdict came out and the company's top executives were imprisoned one after another. The addicted artists were sent to detention centers for detoxification. The few surviving artists were scared to death and fled the entire industry overnight. The small companies that were affected only lasted three or four months after their pillar artists entered the detention centers for detoxification, but they were also unable to continue and declared bankruptcy.

This is the real dirty trick, where one is dirty himself and tries every means to get others dirty.

As a whole, P-company tends to operate independently from top to bottom, so when Song Shengshi heard the final outcome of the two companies from Representative Jin, he sighed and lamented that Representative Jin, if nothing else, at least protected his artists well. Occasionally, some parties and dinners he arranged for them to attend were all screened, so the chance of encountering danger was kept to a minimum.

"It's not that I protected you well." Representative Jin stood up, stretched, and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window.

Song Shengshi took two steps forward, his eyes following Representative Jin's finger and falling on the security team coming and going downstairs.

"Our company only spent less than half of the security fees of other companies, but received more than three times the security strength of other companies."

Song Shengshi hissed, thinking that every time he went to the airport, there were at least three bodyguards around him who were responsible for his personal safety.

I don't think I have paid much attention to this matter before. Only Representative Jin, who often travels between other companies, could notice the gap through constant comparison.

Back in the practice room, Song Shengshi casually mentioned to Jeon Wonwoo who was bending down and stretching in front of him, "Our company's security is really good. I just heard from Representative Jin that the company in charge of security offered a very low price to our company, almost the cost of labor."

Jeon Wonwoo stood up with his hands raised above his head to help stretch, twisting his waist and casually said, "Of course, after all, it's our company, we must be nice to our own people."

"Yeah, what you said makes sense...eh?"

“Ah hey——” Fu Shengkuan next to him slipped and almost did the splits.

"Eh hey hey--" Li Can rolled over gorgeously from a distance and landed next to Jeon Wonwoo's feet.

“Eh hey hey hey——” Li Shuomin thought he was warming up his voice, so he continued with a higher pitch.

"This..." Jeon Wonwoo looked around hesitantly, "Didn't Coups tell you?"
