“I don’t have very high expectations. That’s true.”
Sarah continued speaking in a calm voice.
Jo Sung-hyun nodded and accepted her words.
To be sure, in the case of Paradise Entertainment, they didn’t expect too much from the event idol group they were hosting.
I could feel it in Sera’s words, and I could feel it in the context of the situation.
“But that’s how an idol group was created, but if it goes bankrupt… It would be very embarrassing for us.”
Sarah says
It will be very, very difficult.
Paradise created an idol group, but it went bankrupt?
So, even if it was an idol group that was created as an event in the first place… They were destroyed when they disbanded, so they withdraw. It would be seen as a feeling.
That won’t be a very good influence when Paradise Enter keeps knocking on the door of Korea.
“To the extent that it is not ruined. That’s exactly what the company wants. What I personally want is… Still, can you open your shoulders a little?”
Sarah shrugged her shoulders and spoke.
Jo Sung-hyun understood her words.
What Sarah wants and what the company wants are slightly different.
It will be of great help when you enter the company later if you just save your face, and the speed will be fast as you have accumulated experience. As a ‘starter’ under the calculation of
However, as the head of the Korean branch, Sarah has to show some achievements here.
“By the way, did you offer me the role of executive producer?”
Then, what was the reason Sarah offered her the role of executive producer?
“I knew he was a talented person, and since the CEO of Pan Entertainment is a producer enough to care, I decided that he would be influential in many ways.”
After hearing that, Jo Sung-hyun thought about it for a while.
Since CEO Jang Pan-seok recommended him, his value as judged by the other party has risen considerably.
Of course, this is not a complete misunderstanding.
First of all, what Sera thinks was literally ‘appropriate success’, and if she creates a ‘appropriate relationship’ with Pan Entertainment, at least she can’t say that the company has failed.
‘still… There is also a risk.’
Not knowing anything else, being a responsible producer is also burdensome.
Even when you know that the responsibility isn’t going to be great.
“It is an attractive proposal, and I am very grateful. However… I guess I’m running out of time a bit. Apparently, I have a child.”
Jo Seong-hyeon spoke while looking at Chae-yoon, and Sera also looked at Chae-yoon and nodded her head.
“I fully understand. then… How about something like this? We need to discuss it enough, but for the current situation, a debut album and one more mini album. We plan to work on two albums in total.”
“yes.”
“If possible, could you ask for only the title tracks of the album?”
Sarah smiles softly and speaks.
Seong-hyeon Jo, making eye contact with her… I could tell from the beginning that Sarah knew that the direction of the story would go like this.
I proposed the role of executive producer in order to make it difficult to turn down other offers that would come after it.
Seong-hyeon Cho let out a smirk.
This experience is also new.
Usually, I was the one who set up the conversation and led the conversation.
Now I feel like I’m constantly being drawn to the other person.
However, there was no discomfort because it was the direction he wanted in the end.
“If it’s a contract like that, I think it’s possible.”
She understood the situation, and Sera even brought Choi Hyun-jun’s neck.
To some extent, Jo Seong-hyeon was willing to listen to Sarah and accept her proposal.
And if it’s enough to only work on the title song, Jo Sung-hyun can do it enough.
It won’t take too long, and by the time it’s done, it’s the time when Chaeyoon has already entered school, so it wouldn’t be a big deal to work separately for a few hours a day.
“The condition is… It can be decided by discussing it in many ways, but I personally… I think we will be satisfied with each other if the conditions are like this.”
Putting down the knife and fork, Sarah swiped and held out a document.
It seemed like a really simple yet thoroughly prepared style.
How did you expect the story to go like this in the first place and prepare the conditions?
Cho Sung-hyun pretended not to win, but first received what she offered and checked the contents.
A document in a simple contract format, with only a few lines written on it.
However, the number written on it was a bit unexpected.
First of all, the production cost is 600 per song.
There… Even if the song is on the chart, it is paid 1 million won.
If you enter the top 50, you will be paid an additional 3 million won.
I’ve never seen such a contract.
How do you make specials like this?
‘If you look at the fact that there is no top 50… Did you plan to be satisfied with the 50th place in the first place?’
In fact, it is also very difficult for an idol group that is now debuting to enter the top 50.
At first… It’s a group that will be active for a year, but if the music source falls into the top 50, that alone would be a huge achievement.
Sometimes there are idol groups that take first place as soon as they debut, but that’s literally out of the question.
“The condition… .”
“I think it’s an unsatisfactory condition. In addition, we can provide an environment where you can work freely if you wish.”
Sarah said as if nailing a nail.
Jo Sung-hyun’s troubles did not last long.
The risk was reduced as much as possible, and the benefits of working with Sera are greater than expected.
Not only the financial gain, but also the relationship with a person named Sarah.
After that, she becomes a person who can wield quite a lot of influence.
If you make even a little ties with Sera like that, there will definitely be benefits that come back without you knowing.

Maybe it will help Chae-yoon as well.
In the end, Jo Sung-hyun nodded his head.
“It’s good.”
It was too attractive an offer to decline.

As soon as Jo Sung-hyun finished the meeting with Sarah, he immediately called Park Joong-won.
He said that he would contact Park Joong-won after the meeting was over, and he was the best match for Park Jung-won to quickly grasp what happened during the meeting.
– Hey, how are you? Hey, Sunghyun-ah, it’s not even a fuss right now.
“… Are you Hyunjun Choi?”
– What, okay?
“I don’t know the details. What happened?”
Jo Seong-hyeon only knows what is written on the documents Sera brought out.
I don’t even know exactly how things are going.
He was only predicting that the outcome would be favorable to him.
-I don’t know what happened either, but from the evening, suddenly, there were a lot of articles about management June.
“okay?”
-Uh, there was a lot of buzz about extorting trainees, buying contracts, and so on, and then we got involved with a toothless cat. Then, suddenly, the name of the CEO, Hyeonjun Choi, appeared, and the fire grew bigger.
“How is the public opinion?”
That’s important.
If there is a feeling that public opinion is trying to protect even a little towards management June.
Because there is even a slight possibility that Choi Hyun-joon will make a comeback.
Jo Sung-hyun had no intention of watching it as it is.
Fortunately, however, he didn’t seem to need to go out on his own.
-Of course, we’re all teaming up now and beating Choi Hyun-joon. It’s been a long time since we’ve all been together like this and beat one guy.
Park Joong-won spoke in a cool voice.
I didn’t understand exactly what the situation was, but it was right that things were going in their favor for the time being.
For Park Joong-won or Jo Seong-hyeon, it was like blowing your nose without even touching it.
“It’s good.”
– Oh, that’s good. how did you talk
“It’s fine. From the very beginning, Paradise brought out the captures of the knights. It was difficult to turn down all the offers.”
-What articles?
“The articles related to Choi Hyun-jun were written by Paradise.”
-… what?
Perhaps it was a fact that Park Joong-won did not expect at all, and his voice contained a sense of absurdity.
“They said it was an appetizer.”
-… I’m not kidding, really. It seems scary to work together, but that’s enough.
“The conditions were good.”
In many ways, it was a good thing.
It is difficult to refuse, and there is no reason to refuse.
-What I was trying to bite you while taking care of Choi Hyun-jun from there… Are you pretty honest?
“I think it’s because of our relationship with Pan Entertainment.”
-Why are you in a relationship with us?
“Are you sure this is what the CEO wants to compensate you?”
Jo Sung-hyun said in a light voice.
Park Joong-won paused for a moment, then hummed and made a sound.
– It’s not an impossible story.
“yes.”
-For now, I’ll talk about it with the CEO separately later, and Choi Hyun-joon will be able to solve it too… .
“Now that we only have a recording schedule left, we will work hard.”
-OK.
Jo Sung-hyun ended the call like that.
Knowing that Choi Hyun-jun was definitely over, I felt a little lighter.
Seeing him smile, Chae-yoon smiles and opens her arms to Jo Sung-hyun.
Jo Seong-hyeon took the child and moved forward.
Another day passed like that.
* * *
I decided to sign a contract with Paradise Enter, but of course that doesn’t mean that the work I’m working on will go away.
First of all, the first thing I had to do was to end up with Yumi’s album.
In the meantime, he had to prepare for Chae Yoon-i’s entrance exam, so in fact, Seong-hyeon Jo was busy.
Although Chaeyoon’s preparation for admission didn’t seem difficult, it was more difficult than expected.
There were many things that I had to take care of, and it would have been a little more difficult without Chae-yoon’s grandmother or Young-jun.
I’m glad I got in touch with Yeongjun from time to time and prepared it together.
“Dad, Yumi is here!”
Jo Seong-hyeon escaped from thoughts at Chae-yoon’s voice.
He, who was waiting in the recording studio, got up immediately and met Yumi and Chaeyoon.
The child said that he wanted to bring Yumi along with Jang Hyun-ah and went out to meet Yu-mi, and had just returned.
“Good job, Chae Yoon-ah. Hello Yumi.”
“Yes, brother. hello.”
Yumi answered with a bright face.
A drink was in her hand.
Seeing that Chaeyoon is holding a chocolate latte in her hand, it seems that Yumi also bought the child.
“coffee?”
“It’s so good.”
Jo Sung-hyun took the coffee that Yumi offered and lightly thanked him.
Yumi smiles softly and opens her mouth.
“I feel really good today.”
“That’s fortunate.”
Yumi said that she was in good condition, and Jo Sung-hyun looked pretty good.
Looking at the timing, the moment I thought it was okay to bring up the idea of re-recording ‘Snowman’.
“So, how about re-recording our ‘Snowman’?”
She spoke first.
Jo Sung-hyun nodded with a bewildered face.
“Anyway, that’s what I was going to say.”
“It worked. like. So, let’s get started!”
said Yumi.
So, the recording began.
The work went very smoothly.
