It was a statement that couldn’t be calm, even if I tried to be calm.
Jo Sung-hyun knew that CEO Jang Pan-seok’s inclination was that he did not dare to turn around and speak.
So he was mentally prepared.
Again, this is unexpected.
‘I thought we were going to talk about Paradise.’
Thanks to CEO Jang Pan-seok, I signed a contract with Paradise Enter on good terms.
So I was thinking about talking about him and saying thank you, but the topic that came up was a completely different topic from what he had in mind.
Knowing that Seong-hyeon Cho was a little perplexed, CEO Jang Pan-seok smiled.
In the end, Cho Seong-hyun decided to first understand the meaning of ‘contract’ that CEO Jang Pan-seok said.
“If it’s a contract, what kind of contract are you talking about? Can I know?”
At Jo Seong-hyeon’s words, Jang Pan-seok glanced at Jang Hyun-ah for a moment and then started talking.
“It has a complex meaning. Well, you don’t have to think too complicated. Because I am judged to be a talented person both as a producer and as an artist. We want to make a contract.”
It means that I want to sign a contract as a producer and also as an artist.
So far, Seong-hyun Cho has been working as a freelancer, but Pan Entertainment seemed to be a little more coveted.
Not only Jo Sung-hyun but also Chae-yoon mentioned it.
“Chae-yoon… .”
“Ah, in the case of Chae-yoon. As an artist, I think he has a lot of potential.”
“He’s just entering elementary school.”
Jo Seong-hyeon looked at CEO Jang Pan-seok and said.
What did you think of yourself, and what other contract terms you came up with.
That was a matter to be reconciled.
The reason that CEO Jang Pan-seok made a meeting with Jo Seong-hyeon was like this.
Of course, there is also the influence of Jang Hyun-ah, but it also meant that CEO Jang Pan-seok was thinking positively about Jo Sung-hyun and Chae Yoon-i.
it’s greedy
And, the greater the greed of CEO Jang Pan-seok, the more favorable conditions could be created by Jo Sung-hyun.
‘If CEO Jang Pan-seok comes directly… It’s unreasonable to say no.’
No, I didn’t really mean to say no.
I need to hear a little more about the artist thing, but as a producer, I had the intention of accepting the contract.
but.
If Chae Yoon was entangled, Jo Sung Hyun had no choice but to be more cautious.
“It’s not like we’re going to run the company for a day or two. 10 years from now, 15 years from now. When Chae-yoon became a mature artist.”
CEO Jang Pan-seok laughed and spoke, and Jo Seong-hyun smiled.
I get a feeling
CEO Jang Pan-seok was looking quite far.
As he just said, we are looking at 10 or 15 years from now.
At that time, the CEO of Pan Entertainment might not be Jang Pan-seok, but Jang Hyun-ah.
To lay the foundation for that, I want to bring in Cho Sung-hyun.
I guess it’s a judgment that there’s nothing wrong with having a talented artist in advance so that the foundation is sufficiently laid out and the head can lead the company well when the head is changed.
There, from the company’s point of view.
Even if Chae-yoon and Seong-hyeon were hired right away, there was no big investment.
Only after grasping such circumstances, Cho Seong-hyeon was able to calm down a little.
“I have no intention of raising Chae-yoon as an artist.”
“I had no intention of raising my daughter as a manager. How did it happen?”
To Jo Seong-hyeon’s words, CEO Jang Pan-seok immediately answers.
At that, Jo Sung-hyun couldn’t help but smile.
After all, Jang Pan-seok is also the father of a daughter.
CEO Jang Pan-seok continued his speech.
“Even if you don’t want to raise him as an artist, it is clear that Chaeyoon will grow as an artist. Then, wouldn’t it be better to prepare in advance?”
Jo Sung-hyun thought carefully about his words.
I wanted to let children do what they want and do it, and Chaeyoon still loves music.
It seems clear that I will be walking on the path of an artist.
Be it a classical musician, a popular singer, or a composer.
The child will continue to expand his domain towards music.
If there is support from the company for that, it will definitely benefit the child.
‘but yet.’
I thought I should ask about Chaeyoon’s opinion at least once.
Anyway, it was Chaeyoon who wrote the contract.
Then you should check your opinion.
It seems like it would be good, but… .
“I will try to talk with Chae-yoon on this part, and contact Hyun-ah through Ms.”
“haha. good. It’s a child’s job. You have to talk to your child. What do you think about Jo Sung-hyun’s contract?”
“I’m thinking positively, but I think we need to listen a little more closely.”
Jo Sung-hyun nodded his head as he answered.
At his words, Jang Pan-seok tapped the table with his finger, then opened his mouth and continued speaking.
“Just, Seong-hyeon Jo, you just have to keep doing what you’re doing now. There will be enough support, and it will be a format where you don’t have to do things you don’t want to do.”
“… … .”
Jo Seong-hyeon quietly looked at CEO Jang Pan-seok and waited for him to continue.
The calculator runs in my head.
What to give and what to receive
‘They say you can keep doing what you’re doing now, but it’s not going to ask for anything at all.’
From the company’s point of view, it can’t just be left untouched.
An artist is making a comeback, and they may ask you to write a song.
You may be asked to produce.
I don’t know what my role as an artist will be, but it’s not like I’m not doing anything.
There will definitely be things you get instead.
for example.
‘The studio will be properly provided.’
The studio that Jo Sung-hyun is currently using should be seen as a courtesy of the company.
As a producer, he was provided with a studio while working with Yumi and Seo Yena, but… .
There was no obligation at all for the company to provide such a workroom.
In that regard, both the company and Jo Sung-hyun will be able to comfortably receive a workroom.
In the other parts, is it something that you don’t have to worry too much about in relation to the contract?
The company will take care of the annoying things, and Jo Seong-hyun only has to focus on his music activities.
Right now, there really wasn’t a lot of annoying things happening, but I don’t know what will happen in the future.
‘There are hundreds of thousands of views of the video on Me Tube where I played with Chae-yoon.’
Among them, there were the general public, but it was clear that there were also industry officials.
Perhaps, annoying things may gradually arise.
Either as a producer or as an artist.
The company will be of great help in that regard.
From what I’ve heard so far, there are many advantages.
CEO Jang Pan-seok gently turned his head and put his hand on Jang Hyun-ah’s shoulder and continued the conversation.
“Instead, we would like to participate in the project Hyuna is working on if possible. I think this will be a satisfactory contract for each other.”
After hearing what Jang Pan-seok said, Jo Seong-hyeon realized that Jang Pan-seok was really determined.
I’m persuading Jo Sung-hyun to make a proper path for Jang Hyun-ah.
“Even without me, I think Hyuna would be able to successfully lead any project.”
“If you don’t have seniors, you will have to go back a little longer.”
It was Jang Hyun-ah who answered Jo Sung-hyun’s words.
It was Jang Hyun-ah, who had been quietly watching the conversation between Jang Pan-seok and Jo Sung-hyun until now.
In the end, he seems to have decided that he cannot stand still.
“… … .”
Jo Seong-hyeon turned his gaze to Jang Hyun-ah.
After Jang Hyun-ah took a sip of water, he continued.
“Until now, there was only one senior who completely agreed with my opinion. There is someone right next to you who breathes well and looks in the same direction. There is no need to find someone else, right?”
Jang Hyun-ah spoke with a firm voice.
Seong-hyeon Jo laughed out loud.
The appearance of Jang Hyun-ah, who confidently expressed her opinion, reminded me of her in the future.
“That’s right. good. Make a contract.”
Rather than simply looking at the terms of the contract, the decision was made based on Jang Pan-seok and Jang Hyun-ah.
Because Jo Sung-hyun was certain that they weren’t going to arrest him or force him to work.
Jang Pan-seok chuckled.
“Then, take good care of my daughter.”
At the words of CEO Jang Pan-seok, Jo Seong-hyun paused for a moment.
I wish you well for your daughter.
Isn’t the word a bit strange?
However, Jang Hyun-ah was smiling too brightly to point out that.
finally.
“… I wish you well too.”
He didn’t say anything, just bowed his head slightly.
* * *
“Ugh… .”
Seo Ye-na let out a sigh.
In the end, team leader Woo Kyung-soo, who saw it, sighed a little and turned his head slightly to look at Seo Ye-na.
“What’s going on?”
“yes?”
“It’s the face that says I’m worried about myself ever since.”
“Are you tired?”
“I was doing that openly, but what about tea?”
Team leader Woo Kyung-soo shakes his head and answers.
Seo Ye-na burst out laughing at her words and opened her mouth.
“Because of the album.”
“album? If you have any concerns, tell me. If it’s not musical, I handle it, and if it’s musical… Because I can tell Seong-hyun.”
“It’s musical. It’s kind of hard to talk to him.”
“… … ?”
At Seo Ye-na’s words, team leader Woo Kyung-soo gave a puzzled look.
It was Seo Ye-na who immediately called Jo Sung-hyun or visited him whenever there was a musical problem while preparing the album.
I couldn’t help but wonder if she asked Jo Sung-hyun about something musical like that.
Did he realize the question of team leader Woo Kyung-soo?
Seo Ye-na shrugged her shoulders.
“I just got a call from Seong-hyun.”
“why?”
“We have a song. It’s called ‘behind the scenes’.”
“yes. know.”
“He said that it would be better to receive a feature than to digest the song alone.”
“So, you decided to be featured?”
Team Leader Woo Kyung-soo asked.
If it was Seo Ye-na, I probably wouldn’t have rejected Jo Sung-hyun’s offer.
That’s why she didn’t get upset when she saw Yena Seo nodding her head.
“yes. First, I decided to think about who would be better… .”
“Can’t you think of who would be better?”
Since you said you had a problem, I thought you must have been thinking about who to receive the feature from.
Seo Ye-na shook her head.
She continued with a small sigh.
“No, I can only think of one person, so it’s a problem.”
At those words, Team Leader Woo Kyung-soo made a puzzled face.
Seo Ye-na looked out the window with a worried face and closed her mouth.
