Thinker in the entertainment industry

Most people have to go through a process of breaking away from their original family after they reach adulthood. Although there are blood bonds between relatives, there are also years of emotional accumulation, but kinship is destined by nature, and whether the orientation can be the same is a matter of probability. , You may also give in for a while. When you are old enough, even if you face your parents, you may not give in. Implementing the idea of ​​​​"distance creates beauty", and being self-reliant when you can stand on your own, it has become a wise choice.

Zheng Xiyuan and Zheng Taiyong both left home when they were in college. Zheng Zhiyong, who has a different style of painting from the rest of the family, is in a special situation. He joined SM in 2003 and started living in the dormitory not long after. In 2007, he encountered After the unexpected accident, he began to live with his parents for a long time. It was not until he went to work in Cube that he began to try to live alone.However, although it is a step late, Zheng Zhiyong's connection with his original family in life has gradually faded after all.He did not hide in advance the "big event" of going back to the front of the stage, but from leaving the cube to now, so many things have happened in between, apart from Zheng Zhiyong and Zheng Xiyuan who planned to take the opportunity to appear on the stage and promote himself to Zheng Zhiyong's platform There was a joint team, and other times he faced and solved it by himself, and never asked his family for help.

As for what other people did for the sake of his relative being so-and-so, that was beyond Zheng Zhiyong's control.

So Zheng Zhiyong didn't understand why Zheng Taiyong, who hadn't seen each other for more than two months, wanted to meet suddenly, and he still had a tone of asking questions.

But...he suddenly remembered the hesitant to speak that Su Jingshi had lightly exposed, and he had a bad premonition.

Zheng Taiyong chose the meeting place in his rented apartment. He was sitting on the sofa, with an ipad on the coffee table in front of him, and a mobile phone in his right hand, sliding his thumb on the screen: " The sound sources of the three songs are still in the top ten, so congratulations for such a result after consecutive accidents."

"I always find it strange to hear you say that." It's meaningless to cover up in front of Zheng Tae-yong. Zheng Zhiyong's words have always been straightforward, "What's the matter? Just say it."

"I listened to your song."

The corner of Zheng Zhiyong's mouth twitched, his expression was a bit tangled.What he writes in the songs are his true thoughts and feelings, at best, he sometimes transforms the problem into the field of love as a cover.These things let people who are not in the same position as me see... Zheng Zhiyong has a lot of confidence psychologically when facing cknuts and the like.But Zheng Taiyong knew that he had made any mistakes, he didn't make mistakes, and he was at odds with him, and then "viewed" his lyrics, the degree of discomfort would be raised to the nth power.

"Then?" he asked.

"The words of "Richman", were you sober when you wrote them, or were you dazed just like when you touched people on the street?"

Zheng Taiyong handed the ipad in front of him to Zheng Zhiyong, Zheng Zhiyong lowered his head after taking it, and saw the page that Zheng Taiyong called up in advance.Those were feature articles, published after the publication of "richman", and the topics were basically the same - the existing education system is not conducive to class mobility, and it is recommended to increase school hours and reduce the impact of private tutoring.

"I thought you might not be able to see this, or you might not be free, so I looked for it myself," Zheng Taiyong said, "You should be glad that most people care about your background, your military service, and can notice you. Those who talk about education are people who have thought about it beforehand—there are not many people like that.”

"If things get big, I'll be hated by a lot of people, won't I?"

"It's good that you know. I used to say that if you take this route, you may not dare to do sinners. Now that I take back those words, you really dare."

That being said, it can be heard from Zheng Taiyong's tone that he is not in a happy mood right now.

"It's nothing to lose face. Even if you say that in this day and age, anyone can surf the Internet, most of the idiots on the Internet will scold you when they see you. They don't have the energy and ability to really do anything to you. But what if you affect other people's interests? The workload of teachers has increased, so should wages be raised, the extracurricular training industry is so greatly affected by education policies, and there is no room for trouble?"

Zheng Taiyong questioned one after another, and he still felt that it was not enough, so he added two more notes: "You are the beneficiary of 'education made with money', if it weren't for the good reincarnation skills, your resume is not good enough. It will be so good-looking. Of course, I can be regarded as a person with good reincarnation skills, and I can save many years of struggle compared with my peers with the same IQ. Then I will ask you another question. When you wrote the lyrics of "Richman", you thought of it Mom? Or tell me, you are so selfless."

Extracurricular education is a very important part of Su Jingshi's career. Zheng Taiyong's question can only be described as "sharp".Zheng Zhiyong's chest seemed to be pierced accurately and ruthlessly. After a slight cooling, there was a burning pain. The blood spurted out was clotted and stuffed in the trachea, making it difficult for him to breathe.

"I said I don't think I'm that capable, would you believe me?" Zheng Zhiyong put the ipad back in its place and said.

"Why, do you think South Korea's education policy is okay?"

Zheng Zhiyong acquiesced: "It's better than going from a private elementary school to a high school." South Korea does not conduct junior high school entrance examinations or high school entrance examinations. It pursues the nearest entrance examination, so where to live is very important. There is no concept of "key middle school". The difference between having money and not having money is more reflected in the extracurricular education received.This is of course not fair, but compared to some public schools in Europe and the United States, private schools that raise sheep and collect more money have heavy academic tasks. The Korean education system is still stronger in terms of class mobility. The existence of chaebols means capital inheritance. Method.

Zheng Taiyong sneered: "Yeah, everything is fine except for cram schools. Have you forgotten how much the people of our country attach importance to education, and what level of expenditure cram schools are for families below the middle class. There is no extracurricular training, Those teachers go to public schools that everyone can get into, really no one ever thinks that way?"

"Okay," Zheng Zhiyong said, "I admit, this is my negligence, I don't think I can influence anything, or change anything."People's thinking is still stubborn, and it is even more difficult to make any changes in the society as a whole. Zheng Zhiyong never set such high goals for himself.

"Then what do you want to do?"

"Find people who think like me and tell me and tell them that someone is on your side."

"Weak thoughts."

Zheng Taiyong reached out and pressed his eyebrows: "You can do whatever you want, don't do things that really touch the interests of a group of people, you can't handle it yourself. This time nothing happened, and what you did is considered a 'betrayal' ', I don't want you to cause any big problems in the future, and then be suspected or blamed on us."

Since childhood, Zheng Taiyong has no interest in such things as teaching lessons. He has already finished what he wanted to say, and he quickly concluded: "This time the matter did not make a big fuss. You can say that I It’s a big deal, but if you really encounter something that shouldn’t be touched, then no one can do anything about it. If you don’t have that IQ, be honest and don’t run into really sensitive issues.”

"You are living a peaceful life, and a fool like me is actually making trouble. Is that what you mean?" Zheng Zhiyong asked.

Zheng Taiyong was unmoved: "Whatever you think."

"I understand, farewell."

Zheng Zhiyong walked out of the door expressionlessly and walked towards the elevator.Before reaching the elevator door, he suddenly turned around and punched the wall hard.

Zheng Zhiyong's depression couldn't come out, and he couldn't let it go casually. He first went back to his residence, trying to think things through, but every time he thought about it, his anger and humiliation erupted with a bang. , smashing his originally shapeless thoughts to pieces.He was thinking for a while, "You didn't put your mother's feelings first, Zheng Zhiyong, you really have no conscience", and for a while he was thinking, "Jung Tae-yong is relying on me, no matter how emotional I am, I won't do what I think is wrong for the sake of anger. It’s the things that dare to say.” In the end, before he could understand the matter, his head was so painful that it was about to explode.

There is nothing wrong with avoiding touching interest groups.When Zheng Taiyong's words are not wrong, Zheng Zhiyong will generally not do the opposite because of his bad words.But there is always a limit to human endurance, and Zheng Zhiyong is not a creature whose reason is above all else. This time, Zheng Taiyong simply poured a pile of carbon dioxide into his stomach. It may not be harmful to health, but it is extremely uncomfortable. .It was noon when they met. After Zheng Zhiyong returned home, he was sulking until dinner time. He warmed up a glass of milk when it was almost past meal time, but he couldn’t drink it after only two sips. He fell down by the pool He gasped for a long time with his mouth open, and his stomach also twitched for a long time before it subsided.

It's okay, I didn't vomit.

No one could see him, even he himself couldn't see his expression at this moment. Zheng Zhiyong pulled the corner of his mouth to the void, then turned on the faucet, wiped his face with cold water, and then went back to bed and lay down. He sighed for a long time, only to feel barely better.

He will talk to Su Jingshi about it, but not now.

Zheng Zhiyong lay on the bed for a while, and waited for the water on his face to dry before he grabbed his cell phone and dialed a number.

"Hi, hello, Fang Jihexi? I'm Zheng Zhiyong, thinker."

"Do you have time tonight? Let's meet if you can. I'll treat you."

For Fang Jihyuk, it was supper, but for Zheng Zhiyong, he met Fang Jihyuk and solved his dinner problem by the way.

Fang Jihe was born in 1992, the same age as Zheng Zhiyong. He used to be a trainee in a small company. Later, he saw that his debut was hopeless, and his university was so ordinary that it was difficult to find a job, so he changed his career and became an agent. The most common "source" for brokers.I haven't worked in cj for a year, so I don't have much experience, but I have a stable personality, and I'm in the same year as Zheng Zhiyong, so it's easier to deal with. South Korea's rules of "ordering the old and the young" sometimes Not ordinary trouble.

As for experience, ability, etc., they are not that important to Zheng Zhiyong's manager. Zheng Zhiyong's itinerary is expensive or not, and in the end it depends on music to see the truth.Zheng Zhiyong was not very cautious when facing this peer. As long as Fang Jihe didn't go to extreme lengths, it would have no effect on Zheng Zhiyong, so there was nothing to worry about.Anyway, according to his usual way of dealing with people, he will basically not be hated.

"Being my agent, I'm afraid I won't have any work for a while," Zheng Zhiyong said, "There were too many exposures in the past two months, so I need to cool down."

Fang Kihyuk nodded unsurprisingly: "The company told me that the most important thing is to prepare new songs."

This kind of rhetoric An Shuojun also said to Zheng Zhiyong that after "showmethemoney" and "Infinite Challenge" are over, whether the rest of the schedule is good or not has little effect, but the response of the music works is very important.

However, now he suddenly wanted to hear what Fang Jihe had to say: "And then? What else did you say?"

Fang Jihe was serious: "If you procrastinate, find a way to hurry."

"Cough, cough, cough." Zheng Zhiyong choked on his own saliva.

Although the rapper is a free soul, there are indeed many people who procrastinate, but how is he like it!

"I think I didn't say anything when I signed the contract," Zheng Zhiyong said with a smile, "When I didn't have inspiration, I wrote songs very slowly. Recently, I just didn't have any inspiration."

Fang Jihyuk: ...

"This is not something that can be solved by spending more time. You have to be mentally prepared." Inspiration, sooner or later there will be no inspiration, "However, I suddenly remembered that there is really a job that needs you to do now."

"what?"

"move place."
