Not getting any decent answer from Pei Zhuhyun, Liu Xin'an changed the phone and called Cheng Taiqian.
It's not evening yet, and Cheng Taiqian is sitting in his office at this time.
He is different from Pei Zhuhyun. When Pei Zhuhyun is not working, he only needs to show up to the company occasionally and make a small appearance, which is enough.
But he is a manager, and apart from Red Velvet, there are also some big and small things that he needs to worry about.
The bigger the position, the less you have to worry about.
It's a pity that he has a very small agent position.
"What's wrong Xin'an?"
Cheng Taiqian's tired voice stunned Liu Xin'an on the other side of the phone, and then he asked with great concern: "Brother Taiqian, are you busy?"
"Well, it's okay. If you have anything to say, just say it."
"I don't know if you can make the decision on this matter, brother, but I still plan to refer to your suggestion."
"Me? What's the matter? Irene's affairs? If it's Irene's affairs, I can make the final decision for most of them."
"Ah, no, it's my own business."
"What's the matter?" Since it was Liu Xin'an's own matter, Cheng Taiqian didn't dare to talk nonsense.
But if he can report it, the problem is still not big.
And...he was quite curious about what kind of trouble could stump this omnipotent boy.
"I plan to make my relationship with my uncle public."
"Cough cough cough cough..."
The violent coughing sound startled Liu Xin'an. He subconsciously stood up and frowned: "Brother? Are you okay?"
Cheng Taiqian choked on his own saliva, mainly because...he didn't expect this to be so explosive.
The relationship is so public that it is not a problem. The problem is that once Yoo Shin-an discloses his relationship with Park Jin-young, the outside world will inevitably think of Bae Ju-hyun.
At this critical time, if something like this breaks out, S-M's stock price will be affected.
Don't think this is an exaggeration. Let's just talk about Bae Joo Hyun's personal variety show this time. Since fans were informed of the project and the first episode was aired, S-M's stock price has begun to rise slightly.
This already illustrates the problem. The affairs of Bae Zhuhyun, a phenomenal artist, can affect the stock price of a company. If such a thing breaks out at this time...
"It's okay, you scared me..."
"It's okay. Brother, do you think it's okay to just make it public?"
"Uh... to be honest, I am an employee of S-M, so I am not qualified to intervene between you and President Park Jin Young. But since you asked me... I should be able to answer you with two identities."
"Which two."
"As a close brother, of course I support all your decisions, and it is not a troublesome thing to disclose your relationship at this time. After all, you have previously concealed your relationship with Irene and publicly promoted CP, which has made many fans dissatisfied. You continue to conceal your relationship with Park Jin Young.
As for the relationship with the president, I am afraid that the previous incident will happen again."
Cheng Taiqian calmly helped Liu Xin'an analyze it, and at the same time he raised his eyes and glanced at the internal landline on his desk.
This matter was too big, and he had to be prepared to tell Director Kim and even Lee Sung-soo to repay him properly.
"What about the other identity?"
"As Red Velvet's manager, Irene's manager, and an S-M employee, my feelings are a bit complicated..."
"not good?"
"It's not that it's bad, it's just that it's hard to say."
The cooperation between S-M and JYP has always been an interesting thing.
If Liu Xin'an makes this matter public, Cheng Taiqian can think of two situations.
First, the outside world has begun to speculate about Bae Zhuhyun's future. Red Velvet fans and Bae Zhuhyun's personal fans will be very worried. This worry will continue until the next time Bae Zhuhyun renews her contract, and major advertisers will also start to wait and see.
Secondly, everything is developing for the best. S-M and JYP have joined forces and informed the outside world of the news.
Based on Cheng Taiqian's understanding of the company, the first possibility is the highest.
As for the second type...
It’s not that S-M and JYP have never collaborated before, but there is still a big difference between a superficial collaboration and a real collaboration.
And even if it’s a collaboration, it would at most be a collaboration between Red Velvet and a certain team from JYP.
But even if it is just like this, this is still super big news in the circle, a big earthquake.
It's possible, but in practice it's very difficult.
Cheng Taiqian calmly analyzed both situations with Liu Xin'an. Finally, he raised his hand to wipe the sweat on his forehead and smiled bitterly: "Can I report this to Chief Jin?"
"Ah, yes, I just want to talk to my uncle and synthesize the opinions of both companies."
Liu Xin'an's indifferent answer also made Cheng Taiqian sigh.
Perhaps Liu Xinan's happy-go-lucky personality makes him not so suitable for the entertainment industry, but one thing is undeniable, and that is the depth of this boy's feelings for Bae Zhuhyun.
From the first time I got to know this person, to now he has become Liu Xin'an's close brother... Pei Zhuhyun has always been Liu Xin'an's reason for entering the entertainment industry.
This kid has no particular need for money or fame. Not to mention anything else, just the power behind Liu Xin'an... If Liu Xin'an wants to become a glamorous star, it is only a matter of a few words.
As an insider, he certainly knows how easy it is to create a star.
"elder brother?"
"Is Erin with you?"
The sudden question caught Liu Xin'an off guard. He subconsciously looked back in the direction of the living room. He was now sitting in his live broadcast room. He made this call just before the live broadcast. He hung up the phone after a while.
He was going to prepare for the live broadcast after that, so Bae Zhuhyun didn't come over to eavesdrop.
"no, what happened?"
He didn't quite understand why Cheng Tae Qian mentioned Bae Zhu Hyun at this time.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "You and Irene must move on well. It's hard for me to imagine a future where you are not by Irene's side."
If this continues, let alone being unimaginable, he is afraid that if something goes wrong between the two of them in the future, Pei Zhuxuan will not be able to bear it.
He is a child with a very sensitive personality, and the public opinion incidents in 2020 have made Bae Zhuhyun's emotions enter a tense state.
Thanks to Liu Xin'an's timely appearance, otherwise God knows whether Bae Zhuhyun could have persisted at that time.
"Brother, don't worry, I can't imagine not being by her side."
"Ask President Park Jin Young. I may have to report directly to Director Kim. Do you understand?"
"Well, I'm sorry to trouble you, brother."
"It's okay, you brat, you find trouble for us every day!"
"Hey hey hey."
Hanging up the phone with a silly smile, Liu Xin'an stretched out and did not call his uncle directly. Instead, he lazily crossed his legs and controlled the mouse to open his live broadcast room.
Live broadcast first, uncle's side... don't rush, anyway, if nothing happens to S-M, we will discuss it for a long time.
———
The discussion indeed lasted for a long time, and what troubles Lee Sung-soo is that he still doesn’t know what JYP and Liu Xinan think.
Originally, Li Chengzhu wanted to call Liu Xin'an directly, but when Chief Kim told him about this matter, he specifically mentioned that Liu Xin'an was working at that time.
Having no choice but to do so, Lee Sung-soo finally handed over the work to Chief Kim.
And Director Kim...conveniently called Bae Zhuhyun.
"Chief, what's the matter?"
"Has Yoo Xin-an decided to disclose his relationship with President Park Jin-young?"
Let’s get right to the point!
Pei Zhuxuan also understood that he could not intervene in the matters here.
Even though she is one of the most crucial people, she still has to remain silent and distance herself on this matter.
After all, she couldn't take sides at all.
Help the company?
Help your boyfriend?
It's not pleasing inside or out.
It's better to just pretend to be stupid.
"I'm not sure. If the director is curious about this, I think it would be better for you to call Xin'an directly."
This idea of clearing oneself is obvious.
Director Jin took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "In this case, you should prepare for the next work."
"Chief, I will work hard."
"Um."
Director Kim responded lightly, and then crossed out Bae Zhuhyun's name on the notebook.
At the same time, Pei Zhuxuan also sent a message to Liu Xin'an through his mobile phone.
【Have you decided yet?】
After about a few seconds, a reply came from Liu Xin'an.
[Not yet, has your company contacted you? 】
[Yes, the call I just received]
[Tsk, the efficiency is so fast at this time. I usually give you some resources to see how laborious it is]
Liu Xin'an's complaints made Pei Zhuhyun cover her mouth and snicker. Of course she was happy that her boyfriend was willing to complain about the company with her.
But there are more important things waiting for Liu Xin'an now. She just asked briefly about the situation, and after getting the answer she wanted, she didn't plan to disturb the man any more.
[You go about your business, I’m watching TV]
[OK, call me if you need anything]
【I won’t call you!】
Liu Xin'an didn't answer. It seemed that he was working seriously.
With nothing to do, Pei Zhuhyun lazily lay down on the sofa, picked up her phone, and opened the group chat with only the five of them.
Then, the flawless little hands fell quickly.
[Xin An is going to show off her relationship with her uncle to her fans! 】
Bae Zhuhyun doesn’t care about the company’s opinions. There are no employees in this world who would be grateful to the company! Absolutely not!
She always only cares about Red Velvet in the company, not S-M, so in her eyes, it is inevitable for Liu Xin'an to show off her relationship with her uncle.
This is why she told everyone about it directly.
【???】
【Eat melon.jpg】
[Will Sister Joohyun come to the dormitory? Sister Seulgi will invite you to dinner today]
Everyone's reaction was beyond Bae Zhuhyun's expectation, but before she could ask, the message from Jin Yelin made her eyes light up.
Complaining or something...it's the same as complaining in person.
So, she opened WeChat and sent a message to her boyfriend.
【I’m going back to the dormitory!】
【???】
…
When it comes to eating melon, it’s definitely more interesting to eat in person than over the phone.
Pei Zhuhyun walked into the dormitory excitedly, and several people surrounded her.
Before Bae Zhuhyun could realize what was going on, the bag she was carrying was taken away by Son Seungwan, and her mobile phone fell into the hands of Kim Yerim. Kang Seulgi even thoughtfully brought her slippers.
As for Park Soo Young...
I was filming, not in the dormitory.
"Eh? What are you going to do?"
"Listen to the gossip, is Liu Xinan really going to disclose his relationship with President Park Jin Young? Then it will be difficult for our company to do it, right?"
Before Pei Zhuxuan drove over, they had already had a full discussion in the dormitory.
Then, everyone came to the same conclusion as Cheng Taiqian was worried about.
"Well...it seems that someone from the company contacted Xin'an today, but I don't have any gossip about the specific situation. We just listen to what the company decides and don't think about it."
Bae Zhuhyun herself doesn't plan to get involved in this matter, how could she let the members make a choice in this matter.
Just pretend to be stupid and obey.
They can't do nothing and then suffer unreasonable disasters.
No matter how you say it, S-M is still the leading big brother. Although it has declined a lot in recent years, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse.
If you want to really shake the foundation of S-M? Let’s wait for the day when S-M is about to go bankrupt!
"Aren't you worried, Sister Zhuhyun?"
"What do I have to worry about? You don't really think that even if President Park Jin Young and Shin An are uncle and nephew, his uncle will think of poaching us to JYP, right?"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Uh, I don't want to go. I can't learn the singing method of half air and half voice."
Son Seungwan's smiley comment made everyone laugh.
The somewhat serious atmosphere just now relaxed instantly. Then, Bae Zhuhyun, who was surrounded by the members, came to the sofa and looked at the members surrounding him in confusion.
"What are you doing? Have you done something wrong and want to confess to me?"
"How is that possible? We are just resting recently."
"That's right, that's right."
"Then what are you doing? Jin Yelin put my legs down!"
"Sister Zhuhyun must be exhausted after walking so much. Let me give you a massage!"
Jin Yelin's little naughty hands kept moving back and forth on Bae Zhuhyun's round and fair skin. The delicate skin was slightly sunken with her just-right strength, which was very attractive.
Showing courtesy for nothing is either cheating or stealing!
This is a new Chinese sentence that Pei Zhuxuan recently learned. In order to understand this sentence, she put in a lot of effort.
"Oh, honestly, what's the matter? If you want to borrow money, you have to tell me what you want to borrow the money for."
Seeing that Bae Zhuhyun was starting to get serious, the three of them looked at each other. Finally, Jiang Seulqi, who was the easiest to convince Bae Zhuhyun, said calmly: "It's not a loan, we just want to show off the variety show between Sister Zhuhyun and Brother Xin'an.
Let’s take part.”
"That's it?"
"Guilty!" x3
How could they miss such an interesting thing!
"Can I attend?"
"Well... this is not something I and Xin'an have the final say on. You have to ask Brother Taiqian first. If the company agrees, then go ahead."
If the sisters want to come and shoot, of course Bae Zhu Hyun is willing.
If nothing else goes wrong, this time she and Liu Xin'an's variety show will definitely have something to do with other artists.
In this case, rather than letting others take away this popularity, it is better to give this popularity to your own combination.
Don’t let the wealth flow to outsiders! This is the second idiom Pei Zhuhyun has learned recently.
"I just wanted to ask you first. If you don't want us to go, we won't go."
"Yeah, stop doing this, don't pretend to be pitiful about me."
Pei Zhuxuan smiled and cursed, how could she understand these women?
She definitely didn't dare to tell Cheng Taiqian for fear of being rejected by Cheng Taiqian, so I came to ask for a death-free medal from her first.
When Cheng Taiqian rejects them, they can move her out.
Say something like "Sister Zhuhyun agreed that we should go!" At that time, maybe Cheng Taiqian would really make arrangements for her and Liu Xin'an for the sake of them.
Hmm... Of course, this is the worst possibility. In fact, the greater possibility is that Cheng Taiqian happily agrees.
This kind of heat is definitely best enjoyed by one's own people.
But that's the extent of it. Apart from his four younger sisters, Bae Zhuhyun doesn't intend to let anyone else take advantage of this popularity.
Even if they are seniors or juniors with whom we have a good relationship.
Don’t even think about it!
Their little idea was exposed by Pei Zhuhyun, so the few people didn't panic. Anyway, the goal had been achieved, and then they just had to wait for the filming of the program.
"When will the filming take place?"
"We have to wait until the TV show airs."
"Ah? Won't it take a long time?"
"Well... after Xin'an and I finish filming this show, we will prepare to return."
It's August now, three months before the planned return at the end of November.
At this time, everyone already knew the news of their comeback, and preparations for the new song had officially begun. At the same time, Kim Ye-rim and Park Soo-young also started losing weight simultaneously...
There is no way, the fat body can kill people.
After all, not everyone is like Kang Seulgi and Son Seungwan, who don't eat fat and still like to exercise.
Bae Zhuhyun actually gets fat easily, but fortunately she has a fitness enthusiast boyfriend.
Following Liu Xin'an's dining habits, Pei Zhuhyun's current diet is both reasonable and nutritious.
It’s an unexpected bonus from falling in love.
"I went to listen to the new song yesterday." Speaking of comeback, Son Seung-wan became interested.
"I saw you talking about it in the group yesterday. Is it so strange?"
"The concept is quite strange, a bit obscure and dark."
"Huh? Would that be a weird song?"
"You'll know it later when you listen to it. It's hard for me to describe this."
A few people nodded in understanding, and then made a tacit agreement not to talk about the content of the work.
Talking about work on a day off is a taboo!
…
After finishing the live broadcast, Liu Xin'an looked at the quiet living room and sighed softly.
Bae Zhuhyun had already said not long ago that she would stay in the dormitory today, so Liu Xin'an would have to guard the empty bed alone today.
But it's okay, Pei Zhuhyun keeps fighting with him at night these days. Let's turn the air conditioner higher, she's too hot.
Turn it on lower, she's so cold that she needs a quilt.
The problem is, Bae Zhuhyun is cold, and so is he.
Several times he was woken up by the cold in the middle of the night. Today, no one was trying to rob him, so he was very happy and free.
It wasn't very late yet, and as we all know, Koreans don't sleep, so Liu Xin'an directly called his uncle after sitting on the sofa.
Regarding the matter of making the relationship public, he would have to carefully ask his uncle's opinion.
Otherwise, when he says that he and Park Jin Young are uncle and nephew, and Park Jin Young suddenly refuses to admit it, wouldn't it be embarrassing?
