I want to be a chaebol.

Chapter 284 The late bloomer Yoo In Na

On January 28, 2007, the girl group Baby Vox Rev officially debuted. The representative song of this group's debut is "Never say goodbye". Once this song was released, this upbeat song could often be heard on the streets of Seoul.

Baby Vox Rev literally means Baby Vox second generation. Because DR muisc launched the first-generation girl group Baby Vox in 97. Korean girl group members often change. Yoon Eun-hye is also a member of the Baby Vox group. She joined the group during the period of Baby Vox's third album.

Baby Vox's debut album was "The Day I Got My Hair Done". Song Yi somehow felt that Li Xiaolu might have dreamed of becoming a girl group after listening to this song.

Although Baby Vox is not as successful as S.E.S and Fin.K.L in the Korean market, they have tried to open the Chinese market very early. After the success of the second album "YA YA YA" and the third album "Baby Vox 3rd", Baby Vox set the shooting location of the fourth album in the beautiful Guilin.

The five members of Baby Vox, Kim Seo-ji, Lee Hee-jin, Kan Mi-yeon, Shim Eun-jin and Yoon Eun-hye, are extremely popular in China, Japan, Thailand and other countries because of their versatile looks and approachable images. If you go to a hair salon to get a haircut, Baby Vox often appears on posters.

Because the hot girl group Baby Vox disbanded in 2005, DR muisc was obviously unwilling to give up the Baby Vox brand, so it launched Baby Vox Rev.

The reason why Song Yi pays so much attention to the Baby Vox Rev group is because this group happened to be the first girl group to debut in 2007, and this year is also the first year of the second generation girl group. Kara under SA Music, Girls' Generation under SM Entertainment, and Wonder Girls under JYP Entertainment all debuted this year. There were as many as eight girl groups that debuted in the same year.

Wonder Girls, Girls’ Generation, 2NE1, Kara, f(x) and Tara, these girl groups with their own styles constitute the second generation of girl groups.

Jun Zhixian found that Song Yi was checking the member information of Baby Vox Rev, and she didn't understand. She hugged Song Yi from behind and said, "Oppa, you are already the richest man in Asia, do you still have time to care about these little girl groups? Such little girls What’s so good about a girl? She’s not as pretty as me, her figure isn’t as good as mine, and she’s not as understanding as me.”

Song Yi knew that Quan Ji-hyun now had a sense of crisis. Quan Ji-hyun wanted to rely on SA Pictures to successfully enter the Hollywood market. However, she had not received an important role from a Hollywood studio in the past two years. Instead, the Korean film market was dominated by Lee Young-ae, Shim Yinhe, and Moon Geun-young and others have cut many film appointments.

Quan Zhixian knew that Song Yi was trying to knock her down, telling her not to be too ambitious. Although Jun Ji-hyun is the youngest Dae Bell Award-winning actress in South Korea, in front of Hollywood movie giants, Jun Ji-hyun, the Dae Bell Award-winning actress, is nothing at all.

After Jun Ji-hyun hit a wall several times in Hollywood, she honestly returned to Seoul to please Song Yi. Although SA Media Group has separated from SA Group and Cui Shanji is Jun Ji-hyun's boss, Koreans all know that Song Yi is the real owner of SA Media Group.

"I went to SM Entertainment this month and met BoA. BoA recommended the group Baby Vox Rev. Ahn Jin Kyung in the group is still a fan of hers. She has worked with SM Entertainment's Cheon Shang Ji Hee before and her singing skills are very solid. , the dancing is also good.”

"DR muisc might as well rename the group. They named it Baby Vox 2nd Generation. Naturally, fans will compare Baby Vox 2nd Generation with Baby Vox, which will in turn add a lot of anti-fans to the new group." Song Yi said.

Jun Ji-hyun thought for a while, "Black and red are also red. South Korea can't accommodate so many idol groups. If you don't have a reputation, you won't be able to gain a foothold in the fiercely competitive Korean entertainment industry."

Song Yi knew that what Jun Ji-hyun said was right. South Korea has a small land area and a population of only 50 million. There is no way to support dozens of idol groups. The living environment of girl groups is particularly difficult. Fortunately, large entertainment companies like SM Entertainment, JYP Entertainment, YG Entertainment or SA Music can at least protect their artists well.

Like some girl groups that debuted from small companies, such as Stellar. The group's debut song "Rocket Girl" is a song full of fresh energy and youthful atmosphere. However, because the company is too small to promote the girl group, Stellar is nicknamed the poorest girl group.

Later, in order to change the shape of the girl group, the management company of the girl group asked Stellar to take a sexy route. The "Puppet" group's MV was full of provocation, which also attracted countless criticisms and brought countless psychological pressure to the members.

"I know why BaoA recommended the group Baby Vox Rev to me. The song "Never say goodbye" has been included in the soundtrack of the "Audition" game. I hope "Audition" can bring some exposure to this group. ." Song Yi said.

"Oppa, Baby Vox Rev is still an artist from another company after all. I am an artist from our SA. There is not a single movie in which I have appeared in the film list announced by SA Films this year. If this continues, I am afraid that I will star soon. Korean movie fans forgot about it." Jun Ji-hyun pouted and acted coquettishly at Song Yi.

"Nonsense, didn't you also have an action movie "Daisy" released last year, with Lee Jung Jae and Jung Woo Sung. Didn't you also get a Best Actress nomination at the Baeksang Arts Awards for this movie?" Song Yi disagreed. .

"Last year was last year, and this year is this year. Except for a few commercials, I didn't have any film or TV drama appointments this year. You also know my temper, I can't rest. Oppa, please help me arrange some work. " Quan Zhixian begged.

"I took a look at SA Films' film shooting plan for this year, and there is really no film suitable for you. Once you rise to the top, it will be difficult to lower your status. If you play some supporting roles, entertainment magazines will ridicule you. You couldn't survive in Hollywood, so you came back to play supporting roles."

"I do have a good TV script here called "My Love from the Star." I wrote a synopsis and then I will find a screenwriter to perfect it and then we can start filming."

"My Love from the Star" mainly tells the love story between Do Min-joon, a mysterious man who came to the Joseon Dynasty from an alien planet and lived 400 years later, and Cheon Song-yi, the country's top actress. A romantic love story in which people from different planets eliminate misunderstandings through contact, overcome many obstacles and then seek true love." Song Yi briefly introduced it.

After listening to Song Yi's introduction, Jun Ji-hyun found the script very interesting, "An alien who has lived for four hundred years, no wonder you say he is the richest man in Korea. Oppa, you and Professor Do Min-joon, Who is richer between the two?"

Song Yi has never thought about this problem, "Du Minjun mainly purchased some land, antiques, calligraphy and paintings. If these properties are not cashed in, it is difficult to evaluate his true financial strength. However, Du Minjun's personal wealth can definitely be regarded as The richest man in South Korea.”

When Jun Ji-hyun heard what Song Yi said, she suddenly became very interested, "Then this drama is about the country's top actress and South Korea's richest man falling in love together? Oppa, when you said this, I instantly felt connected. "

In the previous SA agency, Jun Ji-hyun was the leading actress in the company's movies, and Song Hye-kyo was the leading actress in the company's TV series. Both Jun Ji-hyun and Song Hye-kyo were a little bit different. Later, the two took two completely different paths. Jun Ji-hyun focused on the development of the film career, and Song Hye-kyo began to invest.

Since 2005, TV series starring Song Hye Kyo or Rain have had investment from Song Hye Kyo's personal company. Although the investment ratio is not high, Song Hye Kyo has completed the transformation from actor to producer.

Song Hye Kyo actually tried to transform into a film actress, but the movies she shot were relatively average in terms of box office and reputation, so she mainly focused on TV series.

If there are TV series produced by SA Pictures, except for some costume themes, Song Hye Kyo will always be the first choice for the heroine. Jun Ji-hyun has been filming movies for so many years since her debut and has never appeared in a TV series. If Jun Ji-hyun lets the public know that she wants to film a TV series, then "My Love from the Star" will become popular before it even airs.

Fans of Jun Ji-hyun and Song Hye-kyo have been arguing about who is the best actress in Korea. It can be said that the fans of the two families are right.

Fans of Song Hye Kyo say that Jun Ji Hyun has never proven herself in highly competitive Korean dramas, and Jun Ji Hyun has also seen similar comments online. She was also suffocating in her heart, hoping that Tao could get off to a good start through the Korean drama "My Love from the Star".

In early February, ABS TV station announced that Jun Ji-hyun and Lee Jun-ki will star together in the TV series "My Love from the Star". Two top film actors with a box office of over 10 million, starred together in an ABS TV series, causing a huge sensation in South Korea.

Lee Joon-ki previously successfully entered the ranks of male actors with a box office of 10 million viewers with the movie "The King's Man", while Jun Ji-hyun also became the first Korean actress with a box office of 10 million viewers with "A League of Thieves". Lee Jun-ki and Jun Ji-hyun have joined forces. Korean drama fans are super looking forward to the release of this TV series.

When the project for this TV series started, Mango TV and Youku both contacted ABS TV and asked to introduce this Korean drama. Jun Ji-hyun's previous starring roles in "My Naughty Girlfriend" and "Thieves" both achieved good box office success in the mainland and are also very popular.

"My Love from the Star" stars Jun Ji Hyun, Lee Joon Ki, Yoo In Na and Park Hae Jin. The screenwriter is ABS TV screenwriter Park Ji-eun.

After the main creative lineup was announced, fans of Lee Jun-ki and Jun Ji-hyun flocked to the ABS official website to express their dissatisfaction.

Yoo In Na is not well-known in the entertainment industry. She was just a singer trainee before. Last year, she also made a cameo appearance in the thriller movie "A-Nang" starring Song Yoon-ah. She can be said to be an unknown newcomer.

In addition to Yoo In Na, fans of these two families are also very dissatisfied with Park Ji Eun. Park Ji-eun has never worked as a TV drama screenwriter before, only a variety show screenwriter. Although Park Ji-eun was also responsible for the screenwriting work of ABS TV's ace variety show "Running Man", variety shows and TV series are two different things after all.

After Yoo In Na's photos were released online, netizens criticized her even more. They questioned that Yoo In Na rose to the top because of her beauty and she was a well-connected member of the crew of "My Love from the Star".

Song Yi also saw these reports on the Internet and called Park Ji-eun and Yoo In-na to the SA Group building. Park Ji-eun had come here twice before, and Yoo In-na came here for the first time. Song Yi's secretary Jiang Soo-na received them. "Please wait a moment. The president can see you after meeting the guests." Jiang Xiuna saw Yoo Inna's uneasy expression and spoke to reassure her.

Yoo In Na graduated from the Department of Secretarial Studies. Kang Soo Na chatted with her for a few words and affirmed her, "Don't take the public opinion on the Internet seriously. As an actor, you must have strong ability to withstand pressure. Since the president can learn from so many actors There must be a reason why I chose you to star in ABS's most important TV series this year. If you don't believe in yourself, don't you still believe in our president's vision?"

At this time, Song Yi had already sent the guests out of the office. Liu Inna noticed that the guests visiting Song Yi this time were actually Lin Zhiling, the crown prince of Samsung Group, and her sister Lin Sangyu.

Lin Zhiling glanced at Liu Inna, and then said goodbye to Song Yi, "President Song, I will go back first. Please pay more attention to the Elephant Group."

Sisters Song Yi and Lin Zhiling shook hands in turn, "Please pass it on to President Lin. I will pay attention to this matter."

After the Lin Zhiling sisters left, Song Yi returned to the office. Park Ji-eun and Yoo In-na were waiting for him in the office. As soon as Song Yi came in, Park Ji-eun and Yoo In-na quickly stood up and said hello.

Song Yi smiled and said, "You guys sit down, don't be too restrained. Writer Park and I are fairly familiar, and this is the first time I've met Miss Inna."

"The reason why I called you here is to help you reduce the pressure. After all, the TV series "My Love from the Star" is actually my proposal. I also serve as a consultant for this TV series and will participate in the production discussion of this TV series. . Even if the sky falls, a tall man like me will still be there to hold it up, so you two don’t have to worry."

Song Yi's words made both Park Ji Eun and Yoo In Na laugh, and the atmosphere of the chat instantly became more relaxed.

"Actually, ABS TV station has many variety show writers. Writer Park's ability to become the screenwriter of "Running Man" has proven your ability. I just gave you a simple idea for "My Love from the Star", but Writer Park wrote The script of the entire four-episode TV series, this beginning is actually very brilliant. After the TV series is broadcast, the pressure on writer Park will completely disappear."

Park Zhien breathed a sigh of relief. Since Song Yi was also optimistic about her expanded script, the pressure on her was virtually reduced.

Song Yi glanced at Yoo Inna again and touched her chin, "As for Miss Inna, she really doesn't have much acting experience, but it doesn't matter. Miss Inna's appearance is naturally suitable for becoming an actress. In "From the Stars" In the TV series "You", you will play the role of Yoo Se-mi, the scheming best friend of the lead actress Cheon Song-yi. You are her closest friend, but because of your jealousy, you want to step on Cheon Song-yi. This is a very charming character. You have to grasp your role well."

When Yoo In Na heard what Song Yi said, she felt even more nervous. She nodded quickly to express her determination, "Thank you, President Song, for giving me such a good opportunity. I will definitely work hard and learn more from senior Jun Ji Hyun."

Song Yi sighed when he saw Liu Inna's performance. He felt that he was being a little bit arrogant.

In her previous life, Yoo In Na appeared in "My Love from the Star" in 13. At that time, Yoo In Na's acting skills were already mature and she had appeared in many TV dramas such as "High Kick Through the Roof", "Secret Garden" and "Queen In Hyun's Man". It is still unknown whether Yoo In Na is qualified for the role of Yoo Se Mi.

Now that the candidate has been decided, Song Yi has no idea of ​​​​substituting before the battle, "Okay, you go back first, pack lightly, don't feel any pressure."

Park Ji-eun and Yoo In-na both heard Song Yi's sigh, and Yoo In-na's heart skipped a beat, knowing that Song Yi was not satisfied with her.

Park Ji-eun and Yoo In-na left the SA Group building together. When Yoo In-na walked to the parking lot, she pretended to be panicked and said, "Writer Park, I just left the key in Secretary Kang's office. I will go back and get it now. You Go back here first, don’t wait for me, I’ll just take a taxi back later.”

Seeing Yoo In Na walking into the SA Group building again in high heels, Park Ji Eun admired Yoo In Na's decisiveness. She shook her head, "It's true that women in the entertainment industry are not fuel-efficient. Now she looks a bit like Cheon Song Yi's scheming best friend."

Jiang Soona was not surprised that Yoo In Na left and returned, "Ms. In Na, the president is waiting for you in the office."

Liu Inna walked into Song Yi's office again and bent down to say hello to Song Yi. "President Song, I know that your performance just now dissatisfied you. Please give me a chance. I will definitely play the role of Liu Shimei well."

"Compared to other actresses, I don't have a professional background, and I don't have much experience in film and television drama acting. But I have the determination not to give up until I achieve my goal."

"I became a trainee when I was seventeen and have been working hard to become a singer. Since I can't become a singer, being an actor is my last chance. I can't tolerate the failure of my career as an actor even more than being in obscurity for a long time. Failure. Please give me a chance, Chairman Song, and I will use my performance in "My Love from the Star" to prove to you that I, Yoo In Na, am no worse than Jun Ji Hyun except that she looks worse than her." Yoo In Na said every word.

Hearing what Yoo In Na said, Song Yi became interested. Yoo In Na is indeed a late blooming actor. Although she is not a major, she has always been good at learning.

Yoo Se-mi in "My Love from the Star" is Cheon Song-yi's best friend. Yoo Se-mi in the script is 28 years old. She has a fairy-like smile and a gentle tone. No matter who sees her, they will feel good about her, regardless of family background or The emotional intelligence is comparable to Qian Songyi, but the appearance is inferior.

Song Yi called Jiang Xiuna in, "Xiuna, you have to finish the early shift today. Just don't be late tomorrow morning."

Jiang Xiuna was slightly stunned. Even if Song Yi wanted to have something happen with Liu Inna in the office, there was no need to drive her back. Jiang Xiuna has seen a lot of ridiculous things between Song Yi and Li Jingshu, Cui Shanji, and Jin Huizhen.

Seeing that Jiang Xiuna was a little confused, Song Yi explained to her, "Miss Renna also graduated with a secretarial major. She will be my secretary when she comes. Since Secretary Liu has taken up the post, you should have a good rest today. Give her some room to express herself.”

When Jiang Xiuna heard what Song Yi said, she spat at Song Yi in her heart. Song Yi was getting more and more fancy. He previously asked actress Han Jiaren to guest star as a flight attendant on the Tae Hee private plane, and now she wants actress Yoo In Na to guest star as a secretary. . She felt a little aggrieved because this guy Song Yi ignored her as a real secretary, but instead showed great concern to Yoo In Na, a fake secretary?

"Okay, I will complete the handover with Miss Inna now." After Jiang Souna finished speaking, she left the office with Yoo Inna.

When Liu Inna re-entered Song Yi's office, Song Yi discovered that Liu Inna had changed her clothes. A bright yellow broad-shouldered suit and a black tight skirt fully reflected her femininity.

Song Yi didn't know whether to laugh or cry after seeing what Liu Inna was wearing, "Isn't this Xiuna's clothes? Why did it suddenly wear on you? Don't tell me, you actually wear it quite well."

Yoo In Na dropped her hands on her chest and pushed her hair to the side, a little embarrassed, "President, Secretary Jiang said that my clothes today did not meet the secretary's dress requirements, so she specially picked a set of clothes for me from her office wardrobe. Help me put it on."

Yoo In Na really quickly stepped into the role of secretary and arranged Song Yi's work in an orderly manner. Before getting off work, Song Yi congratulated Yoo In Na, "It's a pity that you are not my secretary. But it would be even more pity if you were my secretary. Tomorrow you go to the SA agency and sign an actor agency contract. The role of Yoo Se Mi is It’s yours.”

When Liu Inna heard what Song Yi said, she couldn't hide her surprise. She covered her face with her hands and almost cried. She looked at Song Yi, mustered up the courage to run to Song Yi, hugged Song Yi, and then kissed Song Yi hard to express her gratitude.

Song Yi didn't expect Liu Inna to come out suddenly. Since Liu Inna took the initiative, he was not polite. He held Liu Inna's slim waist and kissed her.

Yoo In Na pretended to protest, "President, I am your secretary now. You, the big boss, can't bully me, my little secretary."

Song Yi raised his hand and looked at his watch, "It's now 6:05 and it's time to get off work. Our relationship is not between a boss and a secretary, but an ordinary relationship between boyfriend and girlfriend."

Yoo In Na has now confirmed that the national goddess Jun Ji Hyun is Song Yi's woman. Jun Ji Hyun fell in love with Song Yi and won the Daejong Award for Best Actress. Her appearance is indeed slightly inferior to Jun Ji-hyun, but her career ambitions are not weaker than Jun Ji-hyun's

　Yoo In Na, who is a late bloomer, is indeed pretty.
