The bright moon in the entertainment industry

90. Rooting

YG's producer Perry is in a particularly good mood today.

He hummed a song, held a cup of Americano coffee in his hand, and held a file folder under his arm. Without knocking on the door, he slammed open the door of Yang Xianshi's office with his butt.

Yang Xianshi was wiping a teddy bear with a soft cloth. When he saw him coming in, he put down the things:

"What's the matter, you're in such a good mood, did you make a new song?"

Perry didn't mind Yang Xianshi's dead face at all. He had known Yang Xianshi for so long and knew his character very well, so he directly threw the folder on Yang Xianshi's desk.

Yang Xianshi opened it and saw that there were two musical notations inside, and a CD was included.

"A new song? Is it for Seven?"

As he spoke, he opened the CD-ROM drive of the computer and put the CD into it.

Perry had a smile on his face, drinking his coffee triumphantly, raised his eyebrows, and didn't speak.

Looking at his expression, Yang Xianshi also became curious and listened intently to the rhythm coming from the stereo.

The song is over.

Yang Xianshi raised his eyebrows very unexpectedly: "I don't know when you switched from original songs to adapted songs. This song is very good, but it doesn't suit Seven's style. Why, did you make it for Teddy? That kid He is very arrogant, so he may not be willing to use other people's songs."

"No, you don't care who you give it to, just talk about it, how about it?"

Perry plopped down on the table, elated.

"Very good, very good song, but not suitable for seven——"

"This is Zhilong's song." Perry interrupted Yang Xianshi, his eyes were dazzling and glorious, he had a big smile on his face, and his tone was full of pride: "This kid, keep quiet, To be able to compose such a good song, as expected, I saw him right."

Yang Xianshi glanced at Perry and played the CD again.

This time, instead of shaking his head and stepping on the beat like the first time, he frowned the whole time and listened intently.

Perry followed him, but his expression became more and more smug.

When Quan Zhilong first joined the company, he was only 13 years old. At that time, he was not as tall as his shoulders. Now he can stand beside him and make such decent songs. The family has the comfort of a child who has just grown up!

"Zhilong did it alone? You didn't help him?"

After listening for the second time, Yang Xianshi asked Perry again.

Perry widened his eyes, nodded seriously, and then sighed: "Please, brother, although I love him very much, I wouldn't do such a thing just to let this kid show his face in front of you, would I? He really did this, I Didn’t I go to rest a while ago, I just put it there, I just heard it last night, you said, this song, with the lyrics, is enough for Zhilong’s debut, isn’t it?”

He said happily, but Yang Xianshi's expression was serious.

Perry went abroad for vacation, cut off all contact during the vacation, naturally didn't know the new decision made by the company, thought Zhilong and Yongbai would debut as two people.

"However, what about Zhilong? I heard from Teddy that the boy has been sick for the past few days and he is still not recovering? I have already said why he is so weak. Reduce the intensity of his training. They are children and not soldiers. Do you have to be beaten like that?"

Quan Zhilong and Jiang Liuyue were caught in the rain, and both of them had a high fever that day. Naturally, they would not come to the company for a few days. Perry just wanted to grab Quan Zhilong to come with him, but of course it was in vain.

"Perry."

Yang Xianshi sighed, he rubbed his eyebrows, and tried to tell Perry the news in a gentler way.

But no matter how gentle it was, it irritated Perry.

"Are you crazy? Ah? Are you crazy?! Brother, have you forgotten why YG was established? Have you forgotten the spirit of HipHop we insist on? Zhilong being an idol singer...you are absolutely crazy , Brother, look at that kid, he is a natural HipHop fighter, how could he..." Perry couldn't continue, he took a deep breath and eased his emotions: "You, how could you do that How about this? Isn’t it too cruel for Zhilong?”

"You listen to me first."

Yang Xianshi tried to calm Perry down.

But Perry was completely irritated by his calm appearance, and he yelled loudly: "What are you talking about?!! Have you succumbed?! Have you succumbed to money and this messy music world!? Are you envious? Is it enough to be the president, do you want to become a representative!? (Note: In Korea, the leader of a company is called the president, while the leader of a listed company is called a representative. This refers to Yang Xianshi who wants to YG becomes a commercialized entertainment company)”

He was very excited, the coffee that had just been casually placed on the table was overturned, a piece was spilled, and Yang Xianshi's bear doll was dirty.

Yang Xianshi didn't save his toy, but kept silent.

"I'm against it, I'm absolutely against something like this."

Perry probably also realized that his actions might be inappropriate, and his words were too aggressive. His tone became softer, but he looked at Yang Xianshi resolutely.

"Perry."

Yang Xianshi touched his pocket, took out the cigarette case, opened it, and handed it to Perry.

Perry hesitated for a moment, then pulled out one, turned his back to him angrily, lit it, and held it in his mouth.

"Do you still remember how Zhilong was signed?"

Perry stopped smoking. He didn't expect Yang Xianshi to mention this suddenly, and his expression became stiff. After a long time, he breathed out a puff of smoke awkwardly, and his voice was a little hoarse: "Why did you mention this all of a sudden?"

He didn't want to bring up that past.

Quan Zhilong, 13-year-old Quan Zhilong, the youngest rapper in Korea, countless halos and expectations, added to the head of that little boy.

He is the proud son of heaven, born as a child actor, dazzling like a newly rising star.

Yang Xianshi couldn't get this star at all.

If Quan Zhilong hadn't been kicked out by the [email protected] company, he wouldn't have had this chance at all.

To be precise, even if Quan Zhilong came out of [email protected] company, Yang Xianshi is not qualified to sign him.

But Perry, and he, both desperately wanted to sign the kid.

"At that time, didn't you bend down and kneel on the ground?" Yang Xianshi also lit a cigarette, and he frowned: "Zhilong is so precious to our company, you think I forgot ?"

But the world is so strange, such a proud son of heaven like Quan Zhilong, who can be seen as a future star at a glance, has no company to sign him.

Except YG, only YG.

The child grabbed this rough, poor-quality straw and climbed up.

"I feel ashamed of Zhilong." Perry said under his throat, coughed twice, lowered his head, and smoked fiercely: "At that time, I put in a lot of effort and wrote a lot of articles, which prevented him from being recognized. Sign with a better company." At this point, he subconsciously glanced at Yang Xianshi, and smiled wryly: "I say so, don't mind, bro. Is it the truth after all?"

So he made amends desperately, treated Quan Zhilong like his own child, loved him, cared for him, taught him, and taught Quan Zhilong to use those complicated machines hand in hand. After a long time, he thought he had forgotten it.

As a result, don't you remember clearly?

"Then do you remember what I said at the beginning?"

Yang Xianshi flicked the cigarette ash and asked.

Perry fell silent, and this time he didn't speak for a long time.

Quan Zhilong was signed anyway, but Yang Xianshi treated him like air, allowing this child to be bullied, oppressed, and humiliated in various ways, starting from the bottom, and learning to live with his head down.

"At that time, I said, don't spoil him, grind and press until he becomes a talent and can move that stone away by himself." Yang Xianshi said: "The reason why he signed him in the first place was because Does this kid see possibilities in us that we can no longer do?"

Whether it is him or Perry, they have an unwilling obsession with the Korean music industry.

After Seo Taiji and the boys disbanded, those singers who imitated them gradually faded out. HipHop has gradually disappeared from the mainstream stage of the Korean music industry in recent years.

They also want to fight, but the reality is so cruel.

Yang Xianshi had to admit, and Perry had to admit that they didn't have that ability.

And Kwon Ji-yong, who was only 13 years old and said that Rap is booming, has become their hope, a seed in their hands that may change the Korean music industry.

Yang Xianshi spent five years carefully cultivating this seed. He not only watered and fertilized him to loosen the soil and shine in the sun, but also thunder and rain, wind and sun, and stones falling under his feet.

Five years, Yang Xianshi thought, so he has persisted for so long, bringing Quan Zhilong by his side, a little bit of teaching, a little bit of tempering, he actually has such patience.

But Yang Xianshi cultivated Quan Zhilong into a sapling, and when he was about to rip off the branches and leaves, he began to notice the changes in the music world.

No matter how unwilling he is, no matter how much he hopes that Quan Zhilong can become the second person who can change the music industry like Seo Taiji, he has to admit that the child he raised is only suitable for the past when he was a singer.

What a ridiculous thing, he force-feeded Quan Zhilong with nutrition, but those were outdated things.

He taught this kid to hold a bow and arrow, how can he compare with those planes and tanks?

Quan Zhilong debuted in 2001, if he only stays for two years and returns to the stage in 2003, he may still be able to give it a try.

2003.12.26.

The debut of TVXQ has changed the structure and development direction of the Korean music industry, and opened up an era of idols, an era of handsome boys.

HipHop fighters have lost their market in South Korea's already severely shrunk music industry, which has been squeezed by these young juniors.

Perhaps one day, Yang Hyun-seok thought, the only thing that YG can hold, its position in the Hip-Hop market, will disappear with the rise of this new era.

Yang Xianshi knew that he had to change accordingly.

"I know you're having a hard time."

He patted Perry on the shoulder, and said lightly, "But just grit your teeth and endure it. If you mess up first, those children will have nowhere to go."

Perry was silent for a long time, and finally turned around and left the office without saying anything.

"Stinky boy."

Yang Xianshi shook his head, lit another cigarette for himself, picked up his dirty teddy bear, and began to wipe the coffee stains on it.

He prefers these quiet toys to living people, they won't cause trouble, and they won't leave.

Why did he choose Kwon Ji-yong, who is still a child, over an artist who can debut with simple training and packaging?Why did he go out of his way to play such a big game of chess to keep Jiang Liuyue?

How easy it is to promote an artist, but those are flowers, once they bloom too beautifully, they will be picked by others.

He, Yang Hyun-seok, doesn't like flowers, he only likes trees, the roots are deeply rooted in YG, and he will die if he moves.

He destroyed Quan Zhilong's path to other companies at the beginning, and now, through Quan Zhilong's hands, he destroyed Jiang Liuyue's path to return to China and leave YG.

Children who have nowhere to go will lower their status, understand their own position, and understand what is called "repaying with gratitude".

Even if Jiang Liuyue is not a model, he still resists his father's assistance. Will he not be able to guess?Quan Zhilong's bad temper will let Jiang Liuyue go?He really didn't know that Jiang Liuyue went to the trainee dormitory to recuperate these days?Li Baoxing is partial to Jiang Liuyue, he really can't see it?

Even if Jiang Liuyue was not seen by Cui Shengxian, he would let Quan Zhilong know the news and then go and keep her.

Quan Zhilong's careful thinking, he saw it as early as when he went to Jeju Island, but he didn't point it out.What is it to talk about love, who hasn't talked about it, can love compare with life?Now let them grind it out, when he debuts, he will mostly wake up Quan Zhilong.

What's more, the pampering he gave now is all kindness, and it is for Quan Zhilong to pay back, and it is for Jiang Liuyue to pay back.

What do you pay for?Take your lives to work for YG.

Yang Xianshi thought, he is really a bad guy who likes to manipulate people's hearts.

"Forget it, anyway, those who become heroes are all villains."

He wiped the teddy bear's face again and sighed deeply.

Standing up, he carefully repacked the CD and put it in the first drawer on the right. This piece will be of great use to him in the future.

After putting away the CD, he opened the second drawer and took out a folder from it.

The words "Final Eliminator" were pasted on the folder, and when it was opened, there were four registration forms inside.

He looked over one by one, his eyes wandering over the names and photos of those children.

After a long time, he picked up the phone.

After a short beeping sound, there was a lazy boy's voice from the other end. He seemed to have a cold, and he spoke in a low voice with a dialect accent, but the tone was loud:

"Who are you?!"

Yang Xianshi's greatest sense of self-confidence, which is not afraid of anything, suddenly hit Yang Xianshi, and he even felt a little absurd.

After tapping the office several times with his fingers, he was silent for a while and hung up the phone.

"...Who is it?!"

Staring at the inexplicably hung up phone, Li Shengxian muttered.

"What are you doing? Seunghyun, it's time to perform."

A friend from the dance team came over and called him.

"Ah, come on, the feeling of being harassed by crazy fans is really~~~~~ Let me tell you, fans who don't even dare to say anything like this are the most innocent, don't I have a distance from being handsome? Do you feel it? ~Taichi~?"

"...Wipe your nose and talk again, okay?"

15-year-old Li Shengxian wiped his nose, clicked his tongue twice, and waved his hand to greet the screaming female student holding his name tag, with a smile on his face, showing

Two small canine teeth.

He didn't know that he would leave Gwangju soon, and in the metropolis called Seoul that once rejected him, he would shine brightly and become the pride of his hometown.

Things like fate are really hard to say.

For example, Yang Xianshi never knew that he had once been a fan of Li Shengxian.

The author has something to say:

A big one is here.

Explain Yang Xianshi's plan and purpose.

Regarding this, individuals may have different opinions. In my opinion, Yang Xianshi is such a person, stepping on you to the bottom, and then praising you to the top, so that you will be grateful to him for the rest of your life, and be grateful even if you are exploited and oppressed. ungrateful.

Moral binding is far stronger than any contract.
