Entertainment Genius Girl
Chapter 7 Selling "The Boys" to SM
Lin Yue has been here for a month. Everything is fine, but she really can't stand the food. The kimchi is too salty, and she likes to put it in every dish.
Her entry-level cooking skills are just enough to cook home-cooked meals. In the past few years, she has been buying vegetables and cooking by herself. But after coming here, she has no tools and her money is almost gone, so she has to spend frugally.
Every time I just eat some rice with strawberry jam and that's it.
Seeing the youngest member eating like this every time, Kim Ji-soo knew that she must not be used to Korean food, but she had no choice. They were not making money now. In a word, they were poor and could not afford anything.
Although their families are quite wealthy, they are too embarrassed to ask for money because their families do not agree with their plans to debut.
The main character doesn't care if he starves to death, and he relies on his parents' love.
Park Chae-young hasn't eaten snacks for a long time. For her who loves to eat, it's simply torture.
Park Chae-young looked at Lin Yue and said, "Gina, don't you have an appetite either? We work so hard every day and all we eat is kimchi and rice. I'm almost turning myself into kimchi. I really want to eat Korean beef barbecue, ah!"
Lin Yue thought for a while and decided to sell songs. It’s only 12 and many popular Korean songs haven’t appeared yet. Anyway, they are not his. He can give these songs to those groups and earn the copyright fees.
"Chaeyoung, I have found a way to make money, just wait for me"
After that, he went to the studio to write songs, leaving the five of them in a daze.
Two days later, Lin Yue went to the production studio and produced the song "The Boys" which was supposed to be released in 11. She really liked this song and felt a little sorry that the world didn't have it.
After the song was produced, it was sent directly to SM Entertainment, with a note on the back saying it was for Girls' Generation.
In the office of Lee Soo Man of SM Company, someone suddenly knocked on the door
Lee Soo Man: "Come in"
E-Tribe: "Boss, I received a song. It's of great quality. The author marked it as for Girls' Generation. Please listen to it before making a decision. I assure you that this song is really great."
Lee Soo Man was very curious about how good the design was that the E-Tribe producer praised it so highly. He inserted the USB drive into the computer and played it. After a few minutes, it was indeed very good.
Especially since the singer was very talented and had reached the debut stage, he was obviously more interested in the singer than the song. After listening to the song, he directly said, "E-Tribexi, contact this producer to come to the company to discuss cooperation."
"Okay, President. I also want to meet this producer."
After E-Tribe left, Lee Soo Man called someone to notify Girls' Generation to come to the office.
Kim Taeyeon: "President Nim, is there anything I can do for us?" Everyone looked at him.
Lee Soo Man said directly: "Listen to this song," and played "The Boys" once.
Everyone listened to the strong rhythm and powerful drums, the unique musical structure and harmony arrangement, with the theme of "Stand up and have the courage for confidence and dreams"
Kim Taeyeon likes this song very much. Compared with the song "gee", she obviously likes this one more. Jessica likes those high notes.
Seeing that everyone liked the song, Lee Soo Man said, "This song was submitted to the company by a producer named Gina. Also, what do you think of the person who sang this song?"
Kim Taeyeon: "Very good, with a wide vocal range, can sing both high and low notes, totally at the level of a debut singer"
Jessica also agreed that they both have the strongest vocals in the group.
After hearing this, Lee Soo Man became more determined to recruit this singer to the company.
Lee Soo Man: "Here are the lyrics and music sheet, take them down and practice. This song will be the main theme of your comeback, so practice well."
Kim Taeyeon took the lead and said, "Okay, President Nim, we will work hard," and then left with the members.
When leaving, Lin Yuner said to Kim Taeyeon: "Ouni, our style has been gradually defined as cute after "gee". Why did this producer specifically give this song to me? Is there someone she knows among us?"
Lin Yuner is so popular and has very little negative information, which is enough to prove that she is thoughtful and thinks a lot.
Lee Sunkyu said directly: "Why think so much, just sing it for us, we still have a choice, anyway, it won't do us any harm, isn't it?"
Everyone thought, yes, there is no harm in it, anyway, they can't refuse it.
After sending the letter to SM, she received a call from SM three days later, asking her to come over to negotiate a contract. In another world, she was a senior executive of a large company, and negotiating contracts was a common thing for her.
Lin Yue is only 12 years old now, and needs to take someone older to accompany her, so that it is more convenient, so she found Jin Zhixiu
"Jisoo, can you come with me to SM Entertainment? I have something to do there."
"Gina, why are you going to SM? Do you need me to accompany you? Tell me the truth or I will feel uneasy."
After hearing what her elder sister said, Lin Yue directly submitted her song to SM Company, and then the company asked her to negotiate the contract.
Kim Ji-soo was shocked after hearing this. SM has many excellent producers. The fact that they like the maknae's songs proves that the maknae's songs are excellent. Would the president agree? What if the president settles accounts with her?
Thinking of this, Jin Zhixiu said directly to Lin Yue: "Gina, you submitted your song to SM, does the president know?"
Lin Yue knew what Jin Zhixiu was worried about, and she was not a fool, so she said to her: "Jisoo, don't worry. When I first joined the company, my teacher and the president reached an agreement that the copyright of my songs would belong to me in the future, and I could arrange them freely. These were all written in the contract."
Kim Ji-soo was relieved when she heard this. This is good. Otherwise, although the youngest member will not be fired, it will be very troublesome. What company would be willing to let go of a musical genius? Wouldn't that be a complete fool?
"But I don't know how to negotiate a contract! What can I do there?"
"Jisoo, you don't need to negotiate a contract. I have already checked the types of music copyright contracts here. I can just apply them directly."
Just like that, Jin Zhixiu and Lin Yue arrived at the door of SM company.
As soon as the two arrived at the SM entrance, they were surrounded by crazy crowds because of their superb looks. The trainees were discussing
"This is the company's new trainee, he's so good looking."
"Yes, these two can compete with our company's goddess Bae Joo-hyun. They are really beautiful, especially the child. You can tell that she is not wearing any makeup, but her skin is very good."
Lin Yue called the person who invited her and told her that she was at the entrance of SM company. Soon, she and the staff came to pick them up and went directly to the president's office. Lee Soo Man and E-Tribe were waiting.
When Lee Soo Man and E-Tribe found out that the producer and singer were both this 12-year-old kid, they were both shocked. This is really a standard candidate for a solo singer.
She is a great singer, good-looking, and good at composing music. She has more potential than BOA in the company.
Lee Soo Man: "Perhaps you two have thought about becoming trainees? Our company is very strong. With your potential, you two can easily become big stars. Would you like to consider our company?"
E-Tribe also thinks that these two people are worth training. Lin Yue will not mention this. Kim Ji-soo is also great.
It is impossible for Kim Ji-soo and Lin Yue to say that they are YG trainees, because they have signed a confidentiality agreement. They cannot reveal that they are trainees when the company is not ready to make it public.
Kim Ji-soo said: "Thank you, President Xi. My sister and I both think that we should focus on our studies, so we won't consider it for the time being."
Jin Zhixiu thought, anyway, I said I would not consider it for the time being, not that I would not debut in the future, so I am not lying. It turns out that she is a genius.
Li Xiuman heard the determination in her tone, so he gave up trying to persuade her. He would think of a way later and get the contract done first. So he handed a contract to Jin Zhixiu for her to look at.
However, Lin Yue took over and changed the one-time buyout into a contract plus a signing fee. The calculation method may follow the formula of "sales x music royalties ratio x adjustment coefficient x management ratio" to sign the contract. She plans to use this signing method in the future.
Lee Soo Man thought that it was Kim Ji Soo who made the decision, but he didn't expect that she was just a runner-up. But he felt relieved after thinking about it. After all, she is a genius, so nothing she does is strange.
Lee Soo Man: "Does Gina know Girls' Generation? She specifically wants to give the song to them."
"I don't know them, but I've heard their songs and I think this song is suitable for them, so I gave it to them. I also have some songs that are suitable for other groups in your company. I'll submit them to you once I've sorted them out."
Lee Soo Man heard there were more songs. He knew this little girl was very talented after listening to this song, and her other songs shouldn't be too bad either, so he said happily: "Then I'm still looking forward to it. Let's add a KKT, and you can send the songs to me directly in the future, so it won't be so troublesome."
After discussing the contract, Lee Soo Man asked her if she wanted to meet the members of Girls' Generation. Lin Yue refused, saying that they were not very familiar with each other and it would be awkward to meet them.
So I said: "President xi, see you again in the future. I will write songs and send them to SM company. There will be many opportunities."
Lee Soo Man let it go after hearing this and decided to try to get in touch with these two people to join the company.
---
After returning from SM, Lin Yue received a signing fee of 400 million won, which was about 2 RMB. This time, she finally didn't have to worry about money, so she thought about the Korean beef set meal that Caiying mentioned last time.
After returning to the dormitory, they had a day off today.
"Jennie, Chaeyoung, Lisa, Miyeon, let's go eat Korean beef today."
After hearing this, Jin Zhenni also wanted to go eat barbecue, but they had no money.
So he said to Lin Yue: "Maknae, we don't have money, Korean beef is very expensive"
They are all children from wealthy families, but now they are in such a miserable state. It is really pitiful to think about it. Their parents are waiting for them to bow their heads and go back.
The other three also agreed, only Kim Ji-soo didn't say anything. She knew that the youngest member had just received 400 million won, and there were still some songs that hadn't been sold, so the youngest member didn't say whether it was expensive or not, because in Korea, producers make the most money.
With the popularity of Girls' Generation right now, the money will only increase after the youngest member releases his song.
"I'll treat you guys to a meal. I made 400 million from selling the songs. Don't worry about the money."
After hearing what Lin Yue said, Jin Zhenni thought it was the song she sang in the practice room, so she spoke first:
"No, how can you sell songs? Your songs are excellent. You should keep them and release them yourself after your debut. This is very important for your future entry into the European and American markets. Do you know that? Ouni disagrees."
Zhao Meiyan also agreed, "Jennie is right, you can't sell songs. It's not like we haven't been hungry before. We've been like this for two or three years. We can get through it if we just endure it. You can't learn from Caiying and only care about eating while selling songs for a bite to eat."
Park Chae-young was instantly unhappy when she heard Miyeon cue her
"Miyeon, how can you say that I only know how to eat? I have many good qualities too."
No one paid any attention to her, she was just standing there in a rage
Lin Yue felt happy when she heard that several sisters were so considerate of her, and she said directly:
"Ounis, I can now write dance music. The song I'm selling this time is a new dance song I wrote. Then I'll tell them the share of the profits from the song sales."
This way they can feel relieved, and it can also increase the popularity of the youngest member. After all, it is Girls' Generation, and the group can make a lot of money by driving the popularity of the songs.
Zhao Meiyan thought for a while and said, "President, can you agree? The copyright of the song you wrote will not be taken away by the company, right?"
Lin Yue repeated what she had said to Jin Zhixiu.
Jin Zhenni: "That's fine. We haven't debuted yet. If you can write good songs, your career may be smoother after your debut."
Zhao Meiyan, Jin Zhenni and others never worried that Lin Yue would not be able to debut. Except for dancing, Lin Yue is a big devil in other aspects. In the monthly exam, she ranked first in all subjects except dance. If such a person cannot debut, then they have no hope.
Park Chae-young was the happiest. She didn't understand the rest, but she only knew that the youngest member would have money in the future, and they wouldn't have to live frugally anymore. Anyway, when they make money in the future, they can just invite her back. It's like investing in her.
So everyone happily changed their clothes and went out to have a big meal.
