Kim Jong Kook didn't know how he walked into the military camp.
I can’t remember exactly what questions I answered.
From this day on, the hustle and bustle of the outside world has nothing to do with him.
We have to wait until two years later before the tiger comes out of isolation.
The Korean entertainment industry will not change because of Turbo's enlistment, and will continue to develop stubbornly according to the established rhythm.
"Sakura Ending" didn't show any signs of decline, and it still kept hitting records at the top of the list.
The song that is about to occupy the top spot for a month is really disappointing to its competitors.
Many singers who originally planned to come back this spring have canceled their plans.
Of course, the singers who do this are basically top singers with great influence, and only they will be affected by the rampant popularity of divine songs.
Generally unknown singers rarely make any waves no matter when they come back, and they don't care who sweeps them away.
In this situation, the happiest person is Big Hit.
Now the top two spots on major charts are all Xiao Qian's songs, and the copyright fee alone makes Big Hit feel weak.
If this is just this benefit, it's not enough to excite everyone at Big Hit. Hasn't Xiao Qian produced enough good songs over the years?
When was his work not a hit?
Even though it's not as crazy as "Sakura Ending", the results are dazzling every time.
Just a song with good performance is not enough to make a big hit sensation.
The reason why this time is different is that "Sakura Ending" caused unexpected effects.
"Representative Xiao, we meet again."
Seeing Xiao Qian again, Pu Zhongwu was filled with emotion.
There are obviously many foreigners living in Seoul, but for some reason, only Xiao Qian seems to often appear in the sight of their city government.
"Director Park, what are you..."
Xiao Qian didn't know why people from political circles always came to her door even though she was engaged in entertainment.
Park Chung-moo certainly doesn't know how to do riddles.
"Representative Xiao, it's like this. Your song "Sakura Blossoms" ended this time with great influence. According to our statistics, because of your song, the number of tourists watching cherry blossoms in Yeouido has increased by 30% compared to previous years."
Everyone around Big Hit took a breath and looked at Xiao Qian as if they were a god.
What is the power of a song to affect the popularity of a place?
Xiao Qian was calm inside but surprised on the outside.
"Really? That would be such an honor for me."
He doesn't know the power of "Sakura Blossom Ending". Since this song is so popular now, it will certainly have an impact on cherry blossom viewing.
He couldn't get the data from South Korea, but he had already seen the data from China.
Just because of the appearance of "My Sassy Girl" and "Sakura Ending", the number of people watching cherry blossoms at Wuhan University this year has increased by more than 700,000.
And what is visible to the naked eye? Most of the people who come to watch the cherry blossoms come from outside the school, and there are even tourists coming from all over the world. There are also many foreigners.
According to the interview, these tourists basically came here after watching "My Sassy Girl", which directly promoted the local tourism industry.
"Sakura Ending" is a Korean song, so its popularity in China can only be considered average.
Only people who like music like it very much? But for the general public? It is very difficult to accept songs that they do not understand.
Therefore, the main reason for attracting tourists to Wuhan University’s cherry blossoms is movies, while in Korea it is mainly songs.
As a city government, it is impossible not to notice such a big change.
Tourism plays a large role in South Korea's economy. Otherwise? Culture and tourism would not be put together to form a specialized department.
In the past, the cherry blossoms in Yeouido were not very famous. People who don’t come to Yeouido often don’t even know about it.
Seoul’s tourism promotion focuses mostly on Gangnam, Namsan and Myeongdong.
Now suddenly there is a good place worthy of publicity, and the Seoul City Government must of course firmly grasp it.
"Representative Xiao, our city government plans to list your cherry blossom ending as a promotional track for the Yeouido Cherry Blossom Festival? This requires your authorization and consent."
Pu Zhongwu explained his purpose of coming, which did not surprise Xiao Qian at all.
The current external publicity of Hallyu is far from being comparable to that of the future. Naturally, there is no luxury and waste of capital.
Will the Korean wave develop and expand in the future? Almost all corners of Korea have been publicized. There are many places to visit and watch, but the cherry blossoms in Yeouido do not have any advantages.
Although there is a divine song like "Sakura Ending", because this song is not a K-pop song and its popularity overseas is average, the Seoul City Government did not use it as a promotional song for Yeouido Cherry Blossoms.
However, Seoul's tourism is still in its initial stage, and any selling point cannot be missed. Even if it is only for domestic tourists, it is worth promoting.
Don’t think that since South Korea is a capitalist country, it doesn’t have a main theme.
In fact, any government has always paid attention to the role of the main theme in public opinion propaganda.
"Sakura Ending" was selected by the Seoul City Government as a tourism promotion song. This is undoubtedly the operation of the main theme mode.
Xiao Qian is not stupid, of course he understands that the power of a Big Hit company cannot be compared with that of a state machine.
"This is my honor. If it can help Seoul's tourism industry, the city government can use it."
They are all smart people. Of course Pu Zhongwu knew that Xiao Qian would agree.
"Please rest assured that our city government will handle the settlement of copyright fees properly."
Xiao Qian quickly refused.
"We at Big Hit have received a lot of help from various aspects in terms of operations. We have also been thinking about how to repay the society, but unfortunately there is no opportunity. This time, the song will not mention the copyright fee, which is our contribution to public welfare.
support."
Xiao Qian has always been a bachelor in doing things.
Now that you have decided to make good arrangements with the city government, you should do it more thoroughly.
A small amount of copyright fees can be exchanged for the friendship of the city government, which is really a good deal.
Anyway, the income from the CD and music source of "Sakura Ending" is enough to make him a lot of money, so why worry about the copyright fee?
"Hey Yigu, Representative Xiao, you're like this... we don't even know how to express our gratitude."
Pu Zhongwu and others were very excited when they heard that Xiao Qian had licensed it to them for free.
If all entertainment companies were so easy to talk to, how much easier would the city government's job be?
Xiao Qian is very helpful.
"If there is anything the city government needs help with, we at Big Hit will do our best as long as we can."
Pu Zhongwu looked at Xiao Qian seriously and kept his image in his heart. He knew that after returning, everything about his trip would be reported to the mayor.
From now on, Big Hit will be considered a registered official in the government.
He knows very well that Big Hit will receive countless benefits in the future, so there is no need to be polite.
"Speaking of which, seeing the impact of the Cherry Blossom ending on Yeouido's Cherry Blossom Road this time has opened up a new way of thinking for us in city promotion. If it's not too troublesome, our city government would like to ask Representative Xiao, can you help us?
Will Seoul produce a promotional song?”
After experiencing the financial crisis in 1998, all walks of life in South Korea are rapidly recovering. As the capital of South Korea and the most famous city in South Korea, Seoul has to bear the brunt of the publicity.
An external economy needs the support of tourists.
Successive Seoul city governments have made a lot of efforts and tried various methods. However, the remaining shadow of the Seoul Olympics has been almost exhausted, and now they are in urgent need of new publicity hot spots.
The appearance of "Sakura Ending" began to make the Seoul City Government pay attention to the role of pop music.
Since "Sakura Ending" was written by Xiao Qian, it's better not to bother the two protagonists.
"Give me some time, I believe I will satisfy Director Park."
After several contacts, Xiao Qian could tell that Pu Zhongwu was a smart and capable person. If nothing else, he still had room for growth.
So I just sold it to him and let him appreciate his friendship.
There is no point in being friendly with the city government.
South Korea is a country with democratic elections, and it is uncertain who the next mayor of Seoul will be. By then, the new leader may not care about his past contributions.
Instead of doing this, investing in potential stocks is actually more useful.
Seeing Xiao Qian agreeing so readily, Pu Zhongwu was really happy.
"Representative Xiao, I have nothing to say. If you encounter any trouble in Seoul in the future, please be sure to let me know."
Park Chung-wu is also not shy about releasing goodwill.
He knows very well that if he wants to rise to the top, he cannot do without the support of entrepreneurs.
During this period, he had done a lot of research on Xiao Qian and knew how terrifying this person's net worth was.
With Xiao Qian's financial support, Pu Zhongwu feels that he can go further.
As for Xiao Qian being Chinese, will he be too sensitive?
Just pay attention to the way you communicate.
Sure enough, Xiao Qian's next words let Pu Zhongwu know that he had met a powerful partner.
"I have a good personal relationship with Congressman Park Yoon-rang. If we have time, how about we go out and play golf together?"
Of course Pu Zhongwu knew Pu Yunrang and knew that he was a big boss in the National Assembly. But the level difference between him and him was a bit different, so he couldn't hold him up at all.
As a result, Xiao Qian actually opened the door to light for him now.
