The Rise of Korean Entertainment

There is no need for Li Menglong to handle the next matter. After all, Director Luo and the others are not novices and they only know more than Li Menglong.

Besides, Li Menglong’s deeper reason is to avoid suspicion. Although the company seems to be just a grassroots team now, it is to nip problems in the bud after all.

If another company really gets bigger in the future, Li Menglong wants to tell everyone not to get involved in other people's professional fields. The subsidiary is independent, and all losses and profits belong to the other company. He doesn't want anyone to point fingers, and he doesn't want anyone to tell them what to do. no.

But it's too early to say this. The three big leaders of the head office SW, Lee Soon Kyu, are active in Japan. Fatty thinks about playing games every day, just like an Internet-addicted teenager.

As for Lee Meng Yong, of course he was in the gym, and Liu Jae Suk. Director Luo stopped coming today if he had an excuse. This bitch, Li Menglong didn’t believe that he started working overtime on the first day? What a liar!

Life was quite fulfilling, at least for Li Menglong. Every day I would either hang out with Yoo Jae Suk or Kim Jong Kook, or go to the company to chat with Na Young Seok and the others. If not, I would think about exid's album.

Originally, Li Menglong didn't know anything about music-related matters, but who knows how to have a good big brother? Kim Jong-kook actually had a small private music company quietly, so Li Menglong asked.

As a result, the situation is not very optimistic. Let’s not talk about other money. There are generally three types of albums released by singers: regular albums, mini albums and ep singles.

The difference itself is not too big, it is just a difference in the number of songs. Generally, the formal order of a group is to start with a single. After two or three albums, it depends on the popularity of the album and the foundation of the company, whether it is a mini album or a regular album.

Li Menglong naturally doesn't want to release an EP. A disc only has one or two songs, which feels a bit like cheating money. As for the regular album, forget it. The price of a dozen songs is a bit too high.

So a mini-album of about seven songs became the first choice. Kim Jong-kook unscrupulously told Lee Mong-ryong that there was a point in this. In fact, only five of the seven songs were enough, and the remaining two songs were instrumental versions, that is, songs. accompaniment.

This kind of water injection was naturally abandoned by Li Menglong immediately. However, the more he understood the price of the song, the more Li Menglong felt that it was not impossible.

It’s not that Li Menglong is cowarded, but the price of the songs is really a bit exaggerated. The popular ones are those composed specifically for idols such as Sinsadong Tiger, Brave Brothers, and Two-Part Cross Kick. A song by such a famous person Title-level songs are priced in the hundreds of millions.

Of course, the price refers to the kind that someone has recorded for you from beginning to end, but if you only want pure songs, the price is also the same, and you have to be introduced by an acquaintance, otherwise why would someone write a song for you? So many people are queuing up!

As for the more common songs, the songs in the album have almost a tempo of over 10 million, and the remaining ones with a few million are just made by newcomers, so it is difficult for them to be pleasing to the ear.

So the initial cost of lyrics and music for an album is 200 million, which is nothing else. If you also include the cost of costumes, music videos, dance and staff, and the promotion costs of singing songs, not to mention this No matter how much you can earn from helping children in the future, you still need to invest at least 400 million in the initial stage of an album.

Li Menglong wondered whether it was really up to Lee Soon Kyu and the others to write songs, otherwise the fee would be too much. Besides, those composers still have subsequent copyright fees to earn, so why do they need so much?

But to make matters worse, each of these composers has released an album on their own or under contracts with others. Park Jin-young is considered their idol, but as of now, the next Park Jin-young has not emerged yet.

Fortunately, everything is not in such a hurry, there is still a lot of time, and Kim Jong Kook has been collecting songs one after another. If necessary, he can also give a few songs to Li Menglong.

Although he is no longer in contact with Kim Jong Kook, he doesn't need him if he can. The albums he released in the past two years have also been very popular, so he should keep those songs to himself.

Just when Li Menglong was looking for songs all over the world, Li Zhien called. Li Menglong thought she had already gone to Japan. After all, it was not Li Zhien's style to not call him for so long.

"Ji Eun, can you write songs?"

"Yes, brother, do you want to make a comeback? I can write songs and sing along for you!" the little girl said excitedly.

"I'll forget it, I'm so old!" Li Menglong told her about EXID, and the girl opposite was obviously disappointed.

But the other party didn't shirk it, but the songs written by Li Zhien were all petty bourgeois and not suitable for the group to sing. However, she promised to check out the company's music library, but she didn't need to think about the title song level.

"Tomorrow? Sure, but isn't nine o'clock too early? Can you get up?"

"I'm not lazy at all. The meeting place is your fried chicken restaurant. I've always wanted to go there and try it!"

He was not surprised by Li Zhien's request. Maybe the little girl heard what Li Shunkyu and the others said, and then she became eager to know all the people around him, so she just came, but it was just that the waiters were cheap.

Li Menglong has already foreseen the split among the waiters at the fried chicken restaurant. In the future, in addition to Girls' Generation and EXID, a third sect - the IU Sect - will be differentiated.

I said hello to Yoo Jae Suk and Kim Jong Kook. As for whether I can join Director Luo tomorrow, after all, although their current working hours are not fixed, they are already on the right track, and some core ideas have also been planned.

I drove along with Director Luo's car and parked the car in a familiar place. Then I didn't rush to the second floor. Instead, I sat on the first floor and ordered something to eat. Because the store was too big, the old gangster made more and more food. .

It is possible that the competitor KFC introduced porridge, so the boss lady followed suit with disdain. The hand-cooked version is naturally much better than the KFC one. It is paired with some fish cakes and pizza. Although it is a mix, it tastes very good.

Holding the newspaper in the store, Luo Yingshi just read it casually while eating. As for Li Menglong, forget it, the meal was over in two minutes.

He wasn't interested in newspapers either. He always thought that it was a waste of time for so many irrelevant people to know about boring news about other people.

But just like that, many members came, and all of them were chatting around Director Luo. Variety show workers are like this. When they are busy, they are exhausted, but when they are free, they always want to work.

So everyone was not in a hurry to go up. Anyway, it was just a change of place to chat and spank. Li Menglong also listened boredly. From time to time, he helped the proprietress and the others to order things, and replaced some waiters so that they could eat.

"Welcome!" Li Menglong said casually to the guest who came in, and then motioned for her to come to the front desk to order, but the woman did not move at all, but looked around.

There were not many customers in the store at this time, so everyone naturally looked at this strange woman out of boredom.

First of all, he should be nearly 1.7 meters tall, and he actually has a pair of feet that are at least 8cm high, which is simply to the death of his male compatriots.

Upward is a pair of black gauze trousers. Although they are not see-through, you can tell that they are very thin, and the cut is similar to that of suit trousers, which makes the woman's legs appear more slender.

The upper body is a thinner white sand coat, and a black sports sleeveless vest can be seen underneath. The faint lotus arms and voluptuous waist all show off her good figure to people.

As for the head, she has a neat ponytail and sunglasses that cover half of her face. No matter from any aspect, this woman is an absolute strong woman, and she is also a high-end strong woman.

Sure enough, the guess was not wrong at all. The woman looked around and walked to Li Menglong. She looked around at Li Menglong's clothes and made a "tsk, tsk" sound in her mouth.

"This customer, we are a fried chicken restaurant here, not a Cowherd restaurant!" Li Menglong took a step back and said a little funny.

"Tch, if this was Cowherd's shop, it would have closed down a long time ago, right? Look at what you all look like!" The woman's voice was a little hoarse, but full of magnetism.

As for what others said, Li Menglong couldn't refute it. Indeed, if this store was a Cowherd store, would it rely on Director Luo's shoehorned face or Fatty's big cake face to be the leader?

He could tell that the other party was joking on purpose, so Li Menglong didn't really care, and the woman ignored him and just ordered some snacks casually.

"Hello, what do you need for drinks? We have..."

"No drinks!"

"This is for free!"

"don't want!"

"Okay, please sit down!" Li Menglong spread his hands and persuaded himself to be gentle and make money. After all, he was open for business.

The woman sat on the chair, tapping her legs, swinging one foot gracefully, placing her hands together on her abdomen, and then continued to look around.

Staying in front of Luo Yingshi for a long time made Director Luo's back straighten up. Although nothing could happen, it at least showed that he was charming.

"Are you here for breakfast?"

"Our company is right up there!"

After asking and answering questions, the other party seemed to be no longer interested in Luo Yingshi. She yawned gracefully with her red lips. Every move of this woman exuded the charm of a mature woman.

"Guest, your meal is ready. Here is the lemon you asked for!" After speaking, Li Menglong stepped back to one end. The cook behind him had to cut the lemon for him. After all, although he didn't know what to do, he couldn't peel it himself. ?

It was Li Menglong who stopped him, because he felt that this woman was not an ordinary weirdo. Fortunately, she was just a stranger. If she were an acquaintance, he would really cry.

The woman seemed to have long been accustomed to everyone's attention. She took out a long thing similar to a sprayer from her carry-on cosmetic bag, but it was about the same thickness from top to bottom and there was no medicine bottle.

Facts have proved that Li Menglong and his gang are just fools. The woman inserted the lower end of the sprayer into the lemon, and after pressing it a few times, water mist was sprayed out, which was lemon juice.

But what's even weirder is that the woman didn't spray lemon juice on the fried chicken, but sprayed it into her own mouth.

Director Luo and the others were swallowing saliva like crazy. They used this to trick the members when they were doing the show. The taste was a hundred times better than white acetic acid.

But the woman seemed to be tasting something delicious without even frowning. Li Menglong himself was dumbfounded and hurriedly shared the lemon with the cook. Naturally, the lemon was real, but it was also real that the other party could eat lemons.

"I said Sister Lemon, no, that lady..."

"My name is Li Enxi, please call me..."
