Chapter 347 Stress (3)
Compared with the long process of the Dongfang Shenqi incident at the beginning of the year and the various stunning feelings in the middle, Kara's contract dispute this time seemed a bit petty. Although both sides were big shots, it was not enough to tear them up at all. Even Pei Yongjun and Li Yanhao almost didn't show up. They were all the two companies squirting about it. The things they squirted were slave contracts, personality insults, and nonsense like that were nonsense, and they were all the things that everyone had developed immunity after experiencing the baptism of the Dongfang Shenqi incident.
Of course, this storm is not without advantages for this group of media. At least one advantage is that it is the fast pace, especially the kara side always has a combination of punches and wait for the back. In just a few days, various things are jumping out one by one. This morning, a specific example of corporal punishment will be released and a photo will be released. A new position press conference will be released in the afternoon, and there will be fans and parents meeting in the evening... Anyway, it makes these reporters feel very exciting when they run on the news.
However, these things are a little wrong in the eyes of insiders. At least none of these things can truly shake the basis of the contract. For the DSP company that is firmly sitting in Diaoyutai, there is no real pressure except for the public opinion pressure caused by the media.
But then again, naturally, everyone would not think that Bae Yongjun is a vegetarian character. What a joke? A person who refused to invite more than a dozen audition invitations to remember on the movie set, a person who was forced to have no money for dinner next month before applying for a KBS actor, and a person who climbed from an actor to a boss of a listed company. If such a person is still a simple role, it would be strange! So, everyone knows that there must be real behind-the-scenes transactions in progress, and there must be truly meaningful measures.
Sure enough, less than five days after the storm broke out, in fact, on the fourth night, Keyeast and DSP issued a statement to familiar media at the same time. Tomorrow morning, they will invite their mutual partners and relevant authoritative personnel in the industry to conduct a comprehensive and formal mediation on the matter. They intend to resolve this ridiculous incident as soon as possible, and must not cause extremely bad social impacts like before.
The first reaction of all the media was that these two companies were bothering to hack S.M, but before they could think too much, they were immediately shocked by a list.
This list is the so-called participants and arbitrators of this mediation meeting.
So who are they? First of all, the original "Three Intermediaries" is placed at the top. But now it is the "Three-person Arbitration Team". Yes, it is Kim Jong-ming, Kim Yong-seok, and Tae-jiner. But here is another story. This time, none of them came here in private identities. In fact, this time they represent the Korean Artist Rights Mutual Aid Committee, TV Station, and Singer Association respectively.
Among them, the most noteworthy one is Kim Yong-seok. He not only represents SBS TV, but also KBS TV and MBC TV stations have also issued relevant commissions to him, because Kara has related programs! Especially for KBS, "Youth Invincible" has steadily maintained the ratings to 12% with a late-night variety show. It has been recognized as the most successful variety show plan this year. Goo Hara is the most popular one among them. Of course, KBS TV station does not want to see Kara have problems. Therefore, the list is not only marked with KBS TV and TV station, among which KBS TV station also expressed blessings and expectations for this adjustment. He also hopes that Kim Yong-seok will solve the problem as soon as possible on behalf of the TV station's interests in this regard.
Well, what should I say about the other two? There is no doubt that the weight is very important. Although Kim Jong-ming had expressed a clear position before, Tai Zhen'er was obviously inclined to DSP company, so the three of them went there, basically, it can only be said that they were basically fair.
Then look further, what really makes people feel tooth pain appear, and that is a long list: Hong Seung-sung, Park Jin-young, Yang Hyun-soo, Kim Kwang-soo, Han Seung-ho, and Han Sung-soo from Pledis, Kim Tae-song from Tss, Park Yong-ho from Loen...
In short, the media suddenly understood why Kim Yongseok could represent the three major TV stations, and finally knew why he wanted to hack S.M in the statement! No, this is simply the list of members of the TV series alliance that included both DSP and Keyeast. It includes the newly joined Pledis, Loen and Ts.
At this time, the media already felt that this mediation activity should have been initiated by this TV series alliance. Because if you think about it carefully, this mediation meeting was basically the entire TV series alliance, plus the main collaborator TV station, and then it was accompanied by two committees with a lot of weight but a little biased... and then I got together such a thing.
Well, if you look at it like this, think about the success of "Funny Family 2". Then think about the s.m company that "Heads to the Earth" is like a s.m company. I always feel that s.m company is becoming more and more confused in film and television... I don't know how Lee Soo-man and Kim Young-min will think about this list.
But no matter what, putting aside these gossips, everyone is full of confidence in this mediation. Because everyone generally believes that whether it is Li Yanhao or Bae Yongjun, once any clause is promised in this mediation, the clause will be implemented unconditionally, and the overall rhythm will definitely go to the peaceful route step by step. There is no way, the lineup participating in the mediation this time is too strong, so strong that these two companies dare not easily violate any mediation results. The huge pressure caused by so many industry peers, TV stations and two committees is not something that anyone can bear.
Sure enough, starting the next morning, in the first floor hall of the JYP company building, which served as the meeting place, reporters kept getting "good news" from the conference room above, and various conditions of both parties were slowly approaching. In the end, it was confirmed that the DSP company was willing to give up all the rights related to Kara, and the Keyeast company was also willing to give up the line of liquidated damages and instead took out a lot of money. Things seemed to have returned to the scope of commercial negotiations.
However, as noon approached, Park Jin-young, who came out to entertain the reporters as the landlords, was blocked by the group of reporters who didn't want to eat, and then he revealed a very tricky news.
It is said that although DSP company is willing to give up Kara, the quotation of Keyeast is also very sincere. However, DSP company is very dissatisfied with the previous private contact of Keyeast. They insist that the other party pay a greater commercial price, but the price they proposed is obviously punishing, and obviously cannot be accepted by Keyeast.
"So what is the specific price?" the reporters asked curiously. "How big is the gap between the two sides?"
"Keyeast gave 6 billion!" Park Jin-young explained helplessly. "But the DSP company opened directly to 20 billion!"
"The kind that doesn't do without a single child?" The reporters were speechless to the 20 billion lion.
"That's not." Park Jin-young shook his head. "In fact, DSP company has long given up on Kara. Their new girl group Rainbo is a clear proof that it is nothing to free up resources to Rainbo. This 20 billion is actually dissatisfaction with Keyeast. So Ms. Choi from DSP company said directly that if any other company present can give 8 billion won, she is willing to package all Kara and related copyrights. The so-called 20 billion is just a quotation for Keyeast."
"So no one is interested in so many companies?" The reporter asked further. "The 8 billion words are actually within an understandable scope."
"Everyone, this economic environment is now 8 billion, not everyone dares to be interested in it." Park Jin-young smiled bitterly. "And everyone's girl group plans are very complete, and no one is ready to take over. In fact, everyone thinks that the girl groups of major companies have either been put out or have entered the actual preparation stage. In addition, the industry rules, the group treatment for the three-year debut must be up to date. So although Minister Kim Yong-seok asked one by one, everyone either has the girl group no resources or the girl group is already preparing to promote new players... We jyp? We will also launch a new group next year! So, this... Actually, the biggest key, after all, everyone is not optimistic about kara. It is not that they are bad, but that one's debut years and the previous performance are really... it really makes people dare not gamble."
After Park Jin-young said this, he hurriedly left, but the reporters talked a lot, and many people no longer had a good prospect for today's negotiations. As Park Gorgeoush said, the gap between the positions of the two sides was too big. It seemed a bit guilty to buy kara for 8 billion yuan.
"If you want to get 8 billion, there will definitely be more people who can afford it, but the key is whether it is worth it." A reporter analyzed seriously. "It is one thing to have this money. You must also have the ability to get kara and then make this money. At least you must believe that you have this ability..."
"In fact, it's not just a question of whether it's worth it." A mature man further explained. "It's not necessarily possible to be rich and willing. He also has a close relationship with Bae Yongjun. After buying it, he won't feel interrupted by Bae Yongjun..."
"If you calculate this way, no one will buy it!" An impatient person judged directly. "I will still be in a deadlock. Choi Mi-kyung's words should be a calculation."
"Not necessarily." Another careful person retorted it. "If you think about it carefully, there is actually someone who can do this. All South Korea knows that he has sufficient funds. He is also good at making music for girl groups, and has a good relationship with Bae Yongjun. The most important thing is that he has always had sympathy for Kara..."
Everyone was suddenly surprised.
"It doesn't make sense to continue talking like this." Just as the downstairs were talking, Bae Yong-jun in the conference room upstairs also sneered. "20 billion is too much, impossible. As for the same sentence, 6 billion, this offer is already very sincere."
Good acting skills! Jin Zhongming has to accept it, and he is worthy of being Blind Pei.
"6 billion is not bad." Choi Mi-kyung rubbed his red eyes. "But it's not sold to you. Your keyeast broke the rules first this time..."
"Well!" Kim Yongseok really couldn't stand it anymore. "Don't argue with you two. 6 billion won, everything about Kara is packed. Do you guys here want to take over? It can be seen that the DSP company has reached this point and it really wants to get along with Kara, but it is really difficult for Keyeast and others to accept 20 billion. So, I finally asked everyone, the number of 60 is already very good. Whoever here has the intention to take over this combination, and if there is one, take over it directly. I think neither the DSP company nor the Keyeast company are willing to drag it down. They should be very 'great' to the company they take over..."
When Kim Yong-seok said this, he said it to a bunch of people on both sides of the conference table, but the real insiders knew it clearly. This was an ultimatum to Kim Jong-ming beside him.
"Let's do it!" Jin Zhongming finally spoke. "I'll take over."
Several people finally breathed a sigh of relief. In their opinion, Kim Jong-ming suppressed the price a bit ruthlessly, especially Tai Zhen'er and Kim Yong-seok. They knew that the other party's initial offer was 10 billion, but because of the disagreement at that time, it was not enough to cause trouble and injuries to others. The business itself directly forced them to give a 60% discount! The methods were so beautiful that they were speechless. But this kind of heart was a little too cruel, and the things they did always seemed to leave no room for anything. What is the difference between such a person and Jiang Hudong, the most domineering in the circle now? Look, sooner or later, they will die at the hands of larger chaebols or forces, and maybe even ** will be eliminated.
However, no matter what, since the matter is going to be resolved, they are unwilling to say anything more.
"Then 6 billion..." Jin Yongxie seemed to want to finalize it with one blow.
"6 billion is a bit...inappropriate." Kim Jong-ming held his chin and interrupted Kim Yong-seok's words lightly.
Jin Yongxie frowned without hesitation. This is really too much. Although you don’t know what the handle and weaknesses of Li Yanhao have to be, the businessman still has to do business... Don’t tell me that this 6 billion was not determined by you?
"At 10 billion!" Looking at the group of people around him with different expressions, Jin Zhongming gave a number helplessly.
Jin Yongseok was stunned immediately, and everyone looked at Kim Jong-ming like they were looking at some rare animal, whether they were aware of it or not.
Kim Jong-ming, who was a little uncomfortable, moved on the chair: "And I would like to ask Minister Kim to go and tell Master Lee of KBS that the moon fire drama in January next year will be made by our Cube, and then let Senior Bae Yong-jun's beloved disciple Kim Soo-hyun take charge... If this is not the case, it will not show my apology to Senior Bae Yong-jun and my sincerity to the DSP company."
The room was silent.
"And I thought about it for a while." Kim Jong-ming stretched out his palm, then lowered his head and studied his palm carefully. "It is also appropriate to add a slightly sincere clause. For example, within a year, although Kara can freely operate in Korea, he cannot release a formal Korean album... This is undoubtedly my compensation for Rainbo. At that time, please give this new group a good treatment based on Kara's qualifications. Some things like return dates should be given out. However, you don't have to worry about losing money as much as possible. The Yuehuo Drama Project will be launched soon. I will try my best to take care of everyone's interests with Bae Yong-jun. I don't know. What do you think of my plan? I mean, if I take over Kara like this..."
"If you take over this way..." Jin Yongseok first reacted, and he slapped the table. "This... is perfect!"
"It's perfect! Zhong Ming is really loyal!" Kim Kwang-soo clapped his hands and stood up with a smile. "Watch Water Margin every day, saying that Shandong is timely raining, Yuncheng Hobaoyi, today I saw a living person! Is that new TV series lacking heroines?"
ps: There is also a book friend group of 457160898, please add it.
Well, let me say more. Many people have been disgusted with reading the recent chapters, unhappy, and feel that the sense of substitution is not strong, and the protagonist is too strong. This problem has existed since the book was opened. At that time, when he was scolded by Li Xiuman, he was scolded for being unreasonable and unreasonable. He was also said to turn against Yang Xianshuo. In short, the protagonist is too domineering and reckless. He will definitely die in the future without a place to die, so he must be humble and must be polite and kind-hearted...
It can be understood, but it’s just understanding. But first, I never spoil the spoiler, and secondly, I never want to shake the outline easily. No matter whether you are threatening '** and you will be eliminated' or so on, the routes determined in the outline will not be shaken easily. In fact, I just want to create a character with a distinct personality, a humble appearance and a irritable inside.
Also, everyone should be more modest when speaking in reality. Don’t learn from Kim Jong-ming’s anger. That’s a novel after all. I have something to do at home recently and a little trouble in the laboratory. I really don’t want to be distracted by a floppy book anymore, but I don’t know what’s going on. When I was preparing to concentrate on typing words in the middle of the night, I can’t forget your words. I’ve felt completely neurasthenia these days. I saw any post full of hostility in the book review area... In fact, since I last posted a post to the point of being a storm, I’ve been wrong in typing. I’ve clearly put the text out, but not the kind I thought... My girlfriend said I was tired... But maybe I am a natural person who is not suitable to be an Internet writer... As for compromise with you... To be honest, it would be fine if I compromised the results of the book can be better... In short, I’m very tired.
Perhaps, less sincerity and more routines are still a good choice.
Chapter completed!
