I want to be a chaebol
Chapter 148 Meeting Zhong Xiaotong for the First Time
After the meeting, Song Yi served as the host and held a small cocktail party at Xinya Building. Artists such as Jun Ji-hyun, Song Hye-kyo, Lee Hyori, Sung Yuri, Moon Geun-young, and Kim Jong-kook attended the cocktail party.
When Song Yi saw Wen Genying, she quickly told her manager Jin Jongdao, "Genying is not an adult yet. You have to keep an eye on her and don't let her drink secretly."
Wen Genying smiled sweetly and stuck out her tongue, "President, there is grape juice in my wine glass. President Jin asked me to come over and see the world. Maybe the branch manager will take a fancy to me and ask me to shoot an advertisement." Something like that.”
Since the completion of "Blue Life and Death", Moon Geun Young has not received particularly good roles. In addition, Moon Geun Young's family asked her to focus on her studies. This year Moon Geun-young doesn't have any new dramas except for a female supporting role in "Dae Jang Geum" in the second half of the year.
Kim Jong-dao originally did not want to take Wen Genying to a similar cocktail party, but when he heard that all the senior executives of the New Asia Department had gathered in Seoul, he immediately understood the gold content of this cocktail party, and immediately helped Moon Genying take leave to come to the New Asia Building to attend the cocktail party.
Song Hye Kyo still took good care of Moon Geun Young and took her to greet the executives of the New Asia Department. "Blue Life and Death" is very popular in the mainland, and "My Naughty Girlfriend" also achieved a high box office of 30 million yuan in the mainland. Song Hye Kyo and Jun Ji Hyun are very well-known in the mainland, and many executives have taken photos with them.
Lee Hyori was a little depressed. Fin.K.L held a concert in Yanjing City last year. Why didn’t anyone take the initiative to take a photo with her?
Since no one else was coming, Li Xiaoli took the initiative to go over. She walked up to Song Yi swaying with a wine glass in her hand, "President, I respect you, I'll do it, you can do whatever you want." Li Xiaoli generously drank the half glass of red wine in his hand. And done.
Lee Hyori is the top female singer of New Asia Music. Song Yi still pays more attention to her. He picked up the wine glass and took a sip.
"Hyori, don't be jealous of Jun Ji-hyun and Song Hye-kyo. Their popularity also requires a bit of luck. We artists still have to rely on our works to speak for ourselves, not scandals." Song Yi knocked Lee Hyori intentionally or unintentionally.
When New Asia Media renewed Lee Hyori and Sung Yuri's separate contracts, Lee Hyori thought Song Yi was attracted to her. Song Yi was young, rich and handsome, so Li Xiaoli felt that committing to Song Yi was not aggrieved.
Unexpectedly, Song Yi had no intention of doing this. New Asia Music prepared Lee Hyori's solo debut album, and Sung Yuri also started to appear in TV series.
Seeing that Lee Hyori could not reach the top of Song Yi, she contacted Hyundai Motor Group Chairman Zhou Mengjiu through the company's resources. Zhou Mengjiu still liked her very much and gave her many expensive gifts. There were rumors that Zhou Mengjiu had adopted Lee Hyori.
When Li Xiaoli heard what Song Yi said, she suddenly panicked. She wanted to explain, but she couldn't.
In the eyes of others, Li Xiaoli took the initiative to please the big boss Song Yi and made every compromise around Song Yi, but Song Yi looked impatient. Guo Haibin looked at Li Xiaoli's sexy figure and couldn't help secretly swallowing his saliva. If a man lives like Song Yi, his life will not be in vain.
"I'm not interested in caring about the private lives of the company's artists. You and I agree on this kind of thing, and I don't need to interfere forcefully. But you have to remember not to say things you shouldn't say. If you let me know that you betrayed the company's secrets, It can't be solved by quitting the entertainment industry and apologizing." Song Yi's tone was cold.
In Lee Hyori's view, although New Asia Media Real Estate Group is a behemoth in the entertainment industry, it is a bit unsatisfactory compared with Hyundai Motor Group.
When she caught up with Zhou Mengjiu, Li Xiaoli's mentality changed. People like Jun Ji-hyun and Song Hye-kyo who are in the same company are already somewhat disdainful, and they are also yelling at their managers.
Lee Hyori only acted more humble when she faced Song Yi and Jin Xiyuan. She felt that Song Yi also wanted to give Zhou Mengjiu some face.
Who knew that Song Yi would tell her bluntly today that Zhou Mengjiu couldn't protect her at all. If Lee Hyori continues to be so arrogant and offends Song Yi, not only will Lee Hyori be unable to make money in the entertainment industry, but he may even be ruined.
Cheng Youli looked at the distracted Lee Hyori. She could probably guess the content of the conversation between Song Yi and Lee Hyori, and she sighed silently.
She felt that Lee Hyori was too anxious, and although Song Yi was rumored to be lecherous, he had never treated the company's contracted artists badly.
Song Yi's ability to rescue Kim Jong Kook from Kim Kwang Soo's hands is enough to explain the problem. When Cheng Youli attended business activities on behalf of the company, many entrepreneurs expressed their interest in her, but she refused them all.
Why do these married men invite her to dinner and give her expensive bags and clothes? Isn't it just to be able to have a romantic relationship with her? If an unmarried rich man really wanted to date her and approached her with the intention of serious dating, she would not refuse.
At this time, Cheng Youli noticed that Song Yi waved her over. She pointed at herself and opened her mouth in an O shape. She didn't expect that Song Yi would actually talk to her about something.
Cheng Youli walked quickly to Song Yi. She brushed her hair and asked Song Yi softly, "President, do you have anything to do with me?"
Now that Fin.K.L's Lee Jin and Ok Joo-hyun have terminated their contracts with New Asia Media, Sung Yoo-ri has no other announcements except for sporadically participating in some TV series. Sung Yoo Ri also made a guest appearance in "Winter Sonata". Sung Yoo Ri played Song Hye Kyo's colleague in the drama, which also attracted the attention of some drama fans.
Song Yi did not sell out, "The company is preparing to produce an indoor variety show. The name of this variety show is "X-Man", with Yoo Jae Suk as the main MC. The company is planning to let you and Jiang Hodong serve as deputy MCs."
"I am very optimistic about "X-Man". This is also the first variety show produced by Xinya, so there is no room for failure. So I hope you can do a good job and strive to make some achievements. When the time comes, I will try to let you host SBS Year-end song competition." Song Yi patted Sung Yuri on the shoulder.
Sung Yuri had long heard that the company was planning to produce an indoor variety show. For the sake of the program's effectiveness, Song Yi deliberately poached Liu Jae Suk from MBC.
All Fin.K.L members have participated in "Living Together" hosted by Yoo Jae Suk, and Sung Yuri likes Yoo Jae Suk's hosting style very much. Yoo Jae Suk is funny and good at controlling the rhythm of conversations. Of course she is willing to host "X-Man" with Yoo Jae Suk. However, she has always heard that Lee Hyori will serve as the deputy MC of "X-Man" before. She did not expect that this pie will hit her all of a sudden. On the body.
Of course Sung Yuri would not be pretentious and give this opportunity to Lee Hyori again. If she did, it would bring trouble to Lee Hyori and herself.
At that time, Song Yi might have thought that she and Lee Hyori violated the company's work arrangements and joined forces to protest against him. After all, Li Xiaoli still had Zhou Mengjiu protecting her, but she didn't dare to show off in front of Song Yi.
"Thank you, Chairman, I will definitely work hard. I will also ask more advice from Senior Yoo Jae Suk. By the way, Chairman, when will "X-Man" start recording and broadcasting?" Cheng Yuli bowed and thanked.
"Wait until the World Cup is over. I will ask Xiyuan to send you the first draft of the plan for "X-Man". You should familiarize yourself with the program process first. If there is anything unclear, you can ask Xiyuan again. The same is true for Xiyuan. The chief planner of "X-Man"." Song Yi ordered.
Cheng Yuli was pleasantly surprised. She knew that with her singing skills, it would be difficult for her to debut as a solo singer, so transforming into an actor or host was the only way for her.
There is a rumor in the Korean entertainment industry that as long as the entertainment program selected by Song Yi is not popular.
CEO Shin Chul of Shin Cine Communications sold the company to Shin Asia for 36 billion won because he was not optimistic about the movie "My Naughty Girl."
Everyone knows what happened later. "My Naughty Girlfriend" became the runner-up at the Korean box office in 2001. Jun Ji-hyun won the Daejong Award for Best Actress with this movie, and Cha Tae-hyun became the Best Newcomer at the Blue Dragon Award. Now the latest valuation of New Asia Pictures has exceeded 300 billion won.
Although New Asia's TV series "Winter Sonata" released in the first half of the year did not break the ratings record of the finale of "Blue Life and Death", it still undoubtedly became the first TV series in the ratings of the three major TV stations.
Now the media has been paying attention to the movie "Memories of Murder" directed by Bong Joon Ho. In an interview with reporters, Bong Joon Ho made it clear that the script of this movie was written by him and Song Yi. Song Yi gave him a lot of inspiration during the filming of the movie. Maybe the Korean police who watched the movie can use the movie to help find the real culprit of the Hwaseong serial murder case.
In fact, entertainment reporters don't care who is the murderer of the Hwaseong serial murders. They are actually more concerned about whether "Memories of Murder", which Song Yi participated in the production, can create another box office miracle.
"My Naughty Girl" grossed 8 million viewers at the box office, only a few hundred thousand viewers behind the annual champion "Friends." If New Asia Pictures extends the movie key, "My Naughty Girlfriend" actually has a good chance of breaking the box office record of "Friends".
The principal photography of "Memories of Murder" has been completed, and Bong Joon-ho has begun the finishing work on the film. "Memories of Murder" is tentatively scheduled to be released on August 25, 2002.
Song Yi remembers that this drama starring Song Kanghao and directed by Bong Joon-ho had a final box office of 5.4 million. New Asia Media Real Estate Group's listing time will be around October or November 2002. Having the film "Memories of Murder" as a foundation can help New Asia Media Group obtain a higher valuation.
It is precisely because Song Yi's previously optimistic entertainment programs have all failed, so Cheng Yuli is more aware of the value of the deputy MC of the program "X-Man".
Another deputy MC of "X-Man", Kang Ho-dong, is also a well-known comedian in South Korea. He is hosting two variety shows this year, namely MBC's "Destiny" and KBS's "Super TV Sundays are Fun".
Sung Yoo Ri can serve as another deputy MC and lead the artists in the group to fight against Kang Ho Dong, so the camera will definitely be indispensable.
Jin Xiyuan also came over at this time, and Cheng Yuli left wisely, leaving them room to talk.
"Compared to Lee Hyori, she does have more brains, but she doesn't seem to have that strong career ambition. In fact, Lee Hyori is more suitable to be the deputy MC of "X-Man" than her. After all, Lee Hyori has a better sense of variety." Song Yi did not agree with Kim Hee-won. if.
"The reason why you chose Sung Yuri to replace Lee Hyori is that you regard the female artists in the company as your own territory, and now someone else has taken the lead, so you deliberately suppressed Lee Hyori?" Kim Hee-won asked in a low voice.
When Song Yi heard what Jin Xiyuan said, he coughed a few times, "What nonsense are you talking about? Xinya's manager will sign a lot of female artists in the future, and they will have to be infiltrated by me before they join Xinya? How can I do this?" Such a lustful boss, who will dare to sign a contract with Xinya in the future?"
Jin Xiyuan chuckled, "Really? It seems that I misunderstood you. I signed the twins Xu Minzhen and Xu Minshan because of you. In a few years, you will know what double happiness means."
Song Yi didn't dare to quarrel with Jin Xiyuan. Jin Xiyuan could only listen to half of what she said, half truth and half falsehood. If you really believed it, you would have been fooled. Of the two sisters, Kim Hee-won and Kim Tae-hee, Kim Hee-won is obviously more thoughtful.
"By the way, the opening ceremony of the World Cup will be held at Sangam Stadium tonight, and President Zhong will give a speech. Before the speech, Uncle Meng Zhun will introduce President Zhong to me. Are you interested in going with me to meet the president?" Song Song Yi asked.
Zhou Mengzhun prepared 10 tickets for the opening ceremony for Song Yi, three for the three siblings Kim Hee-won, two for Chen Jae-chan and his wife, two for Cha Tae-hyun and Kim Jong-kook, and Song Yi left the last two tickets for Liao Yu and Li Bingkui.
Zheng Enxuan, as the chairman of Asan Group, and Li Yizhi, as the president of New Asia Capital Fund, have their own channels to obtain tickets. Zheng Eunxuan will sit with his daughter Zhou Zhiyi and his prospective son-in-law Gu Guangmok.
Although Song Yi went to see Zhong Xiaotong for the first time tonight, he was very calm inside and not nervous at all.
Last year, Song Yi dared to use Zhou Mengxian to threaten Zhong Xiaotong, asking Zhou Mengxian to bear all the blame alone, and finally received a special loan of 200 million US dollars.
With a special loan of US$200 million, Song Yi and Zheng Enxuan were able to jointly obtain control of the Asan Group, and then make a profit of US$500 million by shorting US stocks after the 9/11 incident. Without the two hundred million US dollars, the development momentum of the new Asian series would definitely not be as fast as it is now.
Zhou Mengzhun is the vice president of FIFA and the number one contributor to helping bid for the World Cup. It was normal for Zhong Xiaotong to meet Zhou Mengzhun before the opening ceremony.
Jin Xiyuan was indeed moved when she heard Song Yi's invitation, but her reason still made her refuse.
"Forget it, all the uncles from the modern family are here today, so it would be inappropriate for me to show up in the past. It's a pity that you and Taixi are not engaged, otherwise it would be more appropriate for her to accompany you." Jin Xiyuan felt it was a pity.
"Okay, let's split up then. You can help me take care of Liao Yu. If there is anything that needs to be dealt with at the stadium, you can find Uncle Bingkui. You sit with Taixi and Liao Yu so that there will be no disturbance in the stadium. People who don't open their eyes bump into you." Song Yi didn't take the current president's interview seriously either.
As soon as the cocktail party ended, Song Yi went to Sangam Stadium in advance. Zhong Xiaotong and his party arrived at the stadium around 18:30. Song Yi could not arrive later than Zhong Xiaotong.
Sangam Stadium was built in 1998 and delivered on November 10, 2001, with a total investment of 206 billion won.
In order to cater to the more environmentally friendly bid concept, Sangam Stadium was originally a garbage dump. In the Sangam District, where land is at a premium, it is difficult to find such a large piece of land for the construction of a large-scale multi-functional stadium covering an area of 216,000 square meters.
For this World Cup, the Korean government built a new 1.04 million-square-meter Century Park around Sangam Stadium and a fountain with a height of 202 meters.
When Song Yi heard about this design, he couldn't help but complain. If he really wanted to highlight South Korea's high-tech strength, he might as well design a 2,002-meter fountain. A 202-meter fountain does not match the 2002 World Cup. How could the Koreans cut corners in this regard?
When Song Yi arrived at the stadium, Song Yi discovered that many members of the Modern Family had already arrived. These include father and son Zhou Mong-koo and Zhou Eui-sun of Hyundai Motor, Hyundai Department Store Vice Chairman Zhou Ji-suan, Hyundai Group Zhou Mong-joon and his son Zhou Jixuan, Hyundai Industrial Development Group Zhou Mong-kyu, KCC Group Zhou Sang-young, Asan Group Chairman Jung Eun-seon and his daughter Zhou Ji-yi, etc.
"Apart from Zhou Zhengyong's funeral, today is probably the time when modern family members are at their most organized, right?" Song Yi felt that today's scene was a bit darkly humorous.
Many members of the Hyundai family have been received by the President of South Korea, but among the third generation members of the Hyundai family, only Ju Eui-sun has met the president. Today, all the outstanding members of the third generation of the modern family have arrived, including Zhou Yixuan, Zhou Zhixuan, Zhou Jixuan, Zhou Zhiyi and Song Yi.
Zhou Jixuan is still only a student at Yonsei University, and he has not yet participated in the actual management of Hyundai Group. However, Zhou Jixuan has a good father. Zhou Mengzhun has already taken Zhou Jixuan to meet with the Prime Minister of the island country and FIFA President Sepp Blatter.
Although Song Yi has reached a tacit understanding with Zhou Mengzhun, he is only responsible for football betting and will not participate in game manipulation, so he is not interested in getting to know football bigwigs such as Blatter.
Song Yi provided a sum of funds to Zhou Mengzhun in the name of sponsoring the World Cup. How Zhou Mengzhun used the money had nothing to do with Song Yi. Song Yi's words are lofty, and he hopes that this money can help the South Korean team achieve a historic breakthrough in the World Cup.
At 18:30, Zhong Xiaotong’s motorcade entered Sangam Stadium on time. Zhong Xiaotong will take time to meet members of the Hyundai family in the lounge attached to Sangam Stadium. After Zhong Xiaotong finishes the interview, he will stay in the lounge to prepare his speech tonight.
The door to the lounge opened, and the security personnel in black suits were the first to enter, and soon dispersed. An old man with a slicked back hair and resolute eyes walked with firm steps. This was the first time Song Yi saw Zhong Xiaotong in real life. Zhong Xiaotong felt more majestic on TV.
Zhong Xiaotong first looked at Zhou Mengzhun, and Zhou Mengzhun immediately said hello to Zhong Xiaotong. After the two of them finished their greetings, Zhou Mengzhun introduced the family members to Zhong Xiaotong one by one.
Zhong Xiaotong first held Zhou Mengjiu's hand and said, "Thank you, Chairman Mengjiu, for your strong support for this World Cup hosted by South Korea. This is the son of Chairman Mengjiu, right? It is true that a tiger father has no dog son." Hyundai Motor and Samsung Electronics Both are advertising sponsors of the 2002 World Cup.
The second Hyundai family member to appear was Zheng Eunxuan. Zhong Xiaotong shook hands with Zheng Eunxuan briefly and said, "President Zheng is an outstanding representative of female entrepreneurs in the Republic of Korea. She is indeed a woman who is not inferior to men."
Just as Zhou Xiangyong was about to step forward, Zhou Mengzhun happened to stand in front of Zhou Xiangyong, and then introduced Song Yi to Zhong Xiaotong, "This is Song Yi from New Asia Media. The old man praised him a lot during his lifetime. He said he was the most outstanding person in our family." Three generations.”
Zhong Xiaotong's eyes narrowed, and the smile on his face was very light, "As for Chairman Song Yi from New Asia Media, I have heard Chairman Jin Chengguo mention him a long time ago. He is indeed young and promising, and has a lot of talent. Your modern family It’s true that there are so many talented people.”
Song Yi knew that Zhong Xiaotong was warning him face to face. It seemed that Song Yi used Zhou Mengxian to blackmail Zhong Xiaotong and asked Jin Chengguo to come forward to help Song Yi handle a special loan of 200 million US dollars. Zhong Xiaotong felt very unhappy, so he did not complain.
Song Yi won't care about face if he gets the advantage. There was no need for him to challenge Zhong Xiaotong's authority at this time.
"Hello, President Zhong, Uncle Meng Zhun praises me so highly, which makes me frightened. No matter it is brother Yi Xuan or brother Zhi Xuan, I can't compare to him. Parents always like to praise other people's children. Meng Zhun Uncle Zhun actually wants to motivate Ji Xuan and make him improve in school." Song Yi's posture was very low.
A new volume has begun. Thank you all for your monthly votes. See you all tomorrow.
