Uncrowned Goddess

According to the company's arrangement, the work focus of the six girls has temporarily shifted to the European and American markets.Relatively speaking, the performance projects in Asia began to drop sharply.This immediately aroused the dissatisfaction of Asian fans, especially Chinese fans. Due to the restrictions of the Internet, it is difficult for many Chinese fans to see their messages in the first place, and Europe and the United States are far away after all. People who chase stars greatly increase the time and economic cost.

"It's so good, why did you decide to develop there?" Fans began to complain on the Internet.

"It's really hard to keep up. Flying to Europe for more than ten hours at a time is really tormenting." Those who persisted were also complaining.

"The bosses on the front line have worked hard! Frequent international flights are really stressful."

"Do I have to go over the wall if I want to see their news immediately?"

"Is there a more stable VPN? Please recommend."

"Can anyone teach me how to use a VPN? I bought one, but I can't connect."

"I can climb over the wall, but I can't read English!"

"Isn't it good for the good ones to develop here? The Chinese market is so big, can't they afford them?"

"It turns out that the whole world worships foreigners."

Fans here have expressed their dissatisfaction, but for the six girls, the impact of the company's decision on them is obviously more direct.

As most people expected, as an Asian star, he has no advantage at all in the European and American markets.Except for the explosion in "Carlo" magazine at that time, people in European and American countries seemed to quickly forget about them.In comparison, Europeans and Americans seem to prefer artists who are closer to their own appearance. It is not easy for Asians to break through in the Caucasian market.

"Sister Zhiying, our development in the European and American markets is not ideal at the moment. Should the company adjust its strategy in time and shift our work focus back to Asia?" Jeon Ji-young offered her own ideas.

"The company is also considering this issue, but so far there is no clear instruction." Jun Zhiying sighed deeply—for Gaea, she felt ashamed.As their manager, she couldn't exercise her role as manager very well, just because Cui Renjun interfered too much with this group.

"President, as Gaea's manager, I have the right to give my opinion on their development direction." Jeon Ji Young clearly remembered her negotiation with Cui Renjun back then.

"Zhiying, of course you have the right to arrange your own artists." Cui Renjun always smiled: "But Gaea is the company's main source of income, so the president has to pay more attention to these children. , don’t worry too much. The president is just making some suggestions, and in the end it’s for the better development of Gaea, everyone’s goal is the same.”

So much to say, what else can Jun Zhiying say?In the final analysis, can she, Jun Zhiying, be stronger than Cui Renjun?From that moment on, she knew that her manager was nothing more than assisting Cui Renjun in the management and care of these girls. As for their career planning, the actual power was all in Cui Renjun's own hands, and there was no room for others to comment.

"I have already expressed your concerns to the president." Quan Zhiying also had a sad look on her face, but she still tried her best to comfort them: "Recently, I contacted you for a small event in Hong Kong. I went to meet a Let's meet the fans over there." She smiled bitterly and said, "I'm sorry, my sister only has this little ability to help you."

"Sister Zhiying, you must not say that." Seeing her say such words, the girls couldn't help but panic: "I have been taking care of you all these years. Without you, we might not be able to survive at all."

Facing these sensible and grateful girls, Jun Zhiying's eyes became moist: "My sister will try my best to help you fight for it." She said sincerely: "It's just that when you are free, you should also think about your own development. Direction." She had something to say, but she refused to say clearly: "Young people have a clear career plan, so they can go further!"

Among the six girls, only Li Yuanmin and Park Zhaomei understood what she meant, and couldn't help but glance at each other, confirming their hearts from each other's eyes.But the other girls were just immersed in the atmosphere at that time, and didn't realize that Quan Zhiying had secretly reminded them.

When Li Yuanmin and Park Zhaomei took time to discuss this issue alone, they were pleasantly surprised to find that the other party's thoughts coincided with their own.

"Sister Zhaomei, did you understand what sister Zhiying said that day?" Li Yuanmin started the topic first.

"It should be to give us a chance to find another way out." Park Zhaomei's face was calm, but what she said was surprising.

"So you thought so too." Li Yuanmin sighed for a long time: "I thought I was overthinking."

"The direction of the company's plan for us is obviously wrong." Park Zhaomei was a little frustrated: "We have finally opened up the Chinese market, and we should develop well there. What a big market it is, and we have such a good fan base. .If we can gain a firm foothold there and rely on the mainland to radiate the entire Asian market, then it is not impossible for us to return to the top. But now the company is looking for a long way to go, and puts its hopes on the great Chinese market. European and American markets. It is not easy for Asian actors to develop here, let alone we are just a K-POP girl group!"

"I think so too. But from Zhiying's tone, the company doesn't seem to be aware of this. That's why she hinted that we have our own career plans." Li Yuanmin followed Park Zhaomi's thinking and analyzed: "So I have the same idea as you. Sister Zhiying is hinting that we have to find another way out."

"Oh, sometimes when I think about it, we really have a lot of bad luck!" Park Zhaomei couldn't help but smiled bitterly: "Before I got such a big welcome in the Chinese market, and then my grievances were washed away, I thought it would be the end of all hardships." , I have been able to enjoy the stage for several years! Unexpectedly, because of the wrong direction of the company, we have given up most of the market we have finally opened up. If it is delayed for a few more years, I am afraid that the loss of fans will be serious."

"So what do you think?" Li Yuanmin heard her implication, and took advantage of the situation to ask.

"I don't think we can give up Asia, especially the Chinese market." Park Somi's tone was firm: "I have two reasons."

Li Yuanmin waited quietly for her to continue speaking, and Park Somi said immediately: "One thing is that in our most difficult time, it was the fans there who never left and gave us a hand, which made Gaea exist. Rankings, voting, all kinds of things, without their support, we would not be able to get to where we are today, so we can't forget the kindness of these fans; second, I always think that our roots are in Asia. In addition to the Chinese market, there are also Japan, Vietnam, In the Philippines, Cambodia and other countries, we also have a good fan base there. It is completely whimsical to become a global girl group, and I think we should have an accurate positioning instead of aiming too high."

"You have exactly the same idea as me." After listening to Park Somi's words, Li Yuanmin spoke with some confidence: "We must not give up the Asian market. Even if the company arranges our activities to focus on Europe and the United States, we should do our best to maintain it. Fans in Asia. So as Jiyoung-san hinted, we should plan for the future."

"What do you think?" Park Somi asked her this time.

"Prepare with both hands." Li Yuanmin obviously had an idea.

"Let's listen to it and see if it's what I think." Park Zhaomei rarely showed a serious look: "Let's add up the sum first."

"On the one hand, under the premise of following the company's arrangements, we can use live broadcasts, social account updates, etc. to interact with Asian fans." It should be actively used. For example, in China, their social software is called 'Weibo', we can register an account and interact with our Chinese fans."

"Weibo?" Park Zhaomei was a little surprised: "Is it a chat tool? We chat directly with fans? Isn't that good?"

"It's not a chat tool. It's a software like Facebook. It can post daily routines, photos, etc. Fans can comment, leave a message, or send us a private message. We can choose to reply or not." Li Yuanmin patiently explained .

"This is a good way." Park Zhaomei's eyes lit up, but she was a little discouraged: "But Chinese is too difficult! How can we communicate with fans?"

"Simple Chinese vocabulary can always be learned." Li Yuanmin seemed very confident: "If it's not good enough, just post pictures directly. Fans will be very happy to see our new news as soon as possible, and they will know about us Didn't forget them."

"That's right." Park Zhaomei nodded: "And then?"

"In addition to keeping in touch with fans, the most important thing is of course that we must consider the future direction of development." Li Yuanmin said immediately.Her expression became serious, just because the next words were too important.

"Sister Zhaomi, is your contract with sister Zhener about to expire?" She asked Park Zhaomi this question abruptly.

Park Zhaomei pursed her lips in joy: "That's right. She and I signed the contract first, and it will expire in three months." She had obviously guessed Li Yuanmin's plan, and her eyes began to show admiration.

"Then you—are you planning to renew the contract?" Li Yuanmin asked tactfully, but kept observing her reaction.

Park Somi couldn't help laughing: "Do you think I should renew the contract?" She looked at Li Yuanmin with a smile, her eyes full of tacit understanding.

Li Yuanmin also laughed immediately: "If we have time, we should also talk to Sister Zhen'er." She sighed lowly: "If you want to develop better, you can't be controlled by others. We have already wasted too much It's time, and in the next time, we should make good plans for our future."

"How long is the contract for the remaining four of you?" Park Somi asked immediately.

"There is still about a year." Li Yuanmin replied: "The four of us signed together, and the expiration date is the same."

"It's refreshing." Park Zhaomei nodded with satisfaction: "If everyone's ideas can be unified, then I don't mind going out to lay the foundation first." She smiled slyly: "If the Park family knows that I don't plan to renew the contract You should be quite satisfied."

"Ah, Sister Zhaomei!" Li Yuanmin understood her meaning in seconds, and couldn't help shouting in surprise.

"Shhh - I haven't written the horoscope yet, so don't make it public." Park Zhaomei has always liked her cleverness, and hurriedly put her finger in front of her lips to make a silent gesture.

"Well, let's make a plan first, and then make a decision after seeking the opinions of the big guys!" Li Yuanmin seems to be able to make up his mind: "Let's ask other people in private later, and then make a decision together. "

"Success." Park Zhaomei agreed straightforwardly: "Don't be afraid. Things should be done step by step. As long as we sisters are of the same mind, we will definitely be able to find a way out."
