"I will ask people to apply for patent protection for these clothing styles, and then YG can invest in building its own factory to specialize in making these styles of clothing, and I can be sure that these clothes can be accepted by the public through its artists, and even become a trend, and YG will have to develop celebrity merchandise, which is a profitable business. ”

At this time, Kim Hyun-tae talked to Lee Sung-chan about some of his ideas for the development of celebrity peripherals, after all, he had really experienced these things in his previous life.

Although he has not experienced it personally, Kim Hyun-tae is very clear about some of the things brought by the 'Korean Wave' wind in the original time and space.

Therefore, standing on the shoulders of 'giants', Kim Hyun-tae can of course also become 'far-sighted', which makes Lee Sung-chan look at him with an admiring expression, and look at him as if he is looking at a 'god'.

Of course, it is unknown how sincere and contrived Lee Sung-chan's reaction is, but fortunately, Kim Hyun-tae is too lazy to explore this issue.

"Does YG have enough money?"

Kim Hyun Tae has a set of ideas and plans for using the star effect to make money after investing in YG, but these need financial support.

It's not that Kim Hyun-tae himself doesn't have any money, it's just that he thinks that if YG has enough money, then he doesn't have to come out with the money.

It's a pity that Lee Sung-chan's answer made Kim Hyun-tae doomed to disappointment.

"YG didn't have any money on its books, and the company was not making a good profit, but a large part of it was used to maintain relations with officials from the Ministry of Cultural Industries, and some of the original shareholders didn't care much about the company's future development. It is for this reason that I wanted to find a partner again, and I ended up meeting you. ”

Lee Sung-chan said that the company has no money on its books, and it seems that the huge YG company is only shiny on the surface, but it is already rotten on the inside.

Regarding YG's state, Kim Hyun-tae is also prepared to accept it. After all, he had a lifelong understanding of Korea, so he wasn't surprised by YG's situation.

"YG hasn't been listed yet, and I don't plan to do so after I become the holding, so how much does YG have now?"

I didn't ask YG any questions about its funds. Kim Hyun-tae changed the subject.

Lee Sung-chan is also real, considering that he will become a collaborator in a few days, and the other party will absolutely control YG, so Lee Sung-chan has no intention of hiding it, and told Kim Hyun-tae the truth: "Land and real estate." It adds up to almost $80 million, with expenses of more than $70 million a year and income of about $90 million. ”

Kim Hyun-tae listened while silently summing up in his heart.

According to Lee Sung-chan's income and expenditure figures, YG is still making money and making a profit.

However, due to the narrow-mindedness of some shareholders and the need to give benefits to some authorities, YG basically did not have much money left, which caused obstacles to the company's development.

YG makes money, and it's all based on the artists who press it.

So this phenomenon is dangerous.

"In the future company, I am the majority shareholder, and you are a minority shareholder. The power structure will be simpler. I will not interfere in the management of the company, and I will leave it to you with all the powers, so that you will have no constraints. ”

After thinking about it, Kim Hyun-tae said to Lee Sung-chan.

"As for the benefits of the Ministry of Cultural Industries, let's stop later. I don't think they will dare to provoke me, I still have this confidence. Of course, for the New Year's holidays, just give some gifts, and I'm not so unkind, but I can't do it like the original. ”

Li Chengcan nodded again and again. At the same time, he chimed in, saying, "Of course, after you take control of YG, basically YG is equivalent to CNN's industry, and those people from the Ministry of Cultural Industries borrow a few guts from them. I don't dare to be as unscrupulous as before, after all, YG will be a foreign-owned company in the future. ”

The withdrawal of 'foreign capital' tiger skins in order to deter unscrupulous people inside Li Chengcan obviously understands this reason.

"What do you think about the development of celebrity peripherals?"

Kim Hyun-tae asked.

Speaking of this, Lee Sung-chan once again looked at Kim Hyun-tae with a 'god'-like expression. Kim Hyun-tae was a little uncomfortable.

"Your idea is too genius, you must know that no one has considered this part of the entire Korean entertainment industry, but you actually have a detailed plan, I personally think that the development of celebrity peripherals is very promising, and my attitude is to support!"

Li Chengcan can also be regarded as a talent, and he also has some vision.

After Kim Hyun-tae came up with a new artist look and a copy of the celebrity peripheral development plan, Lee Sung-chan was basically conquered.

Just like he said, no one in South Korea has thought about the development of celebrity peripherals during this period.

Therefore, there is a lot of 'money' in this area, and it is definitely a lot of money to make a lot of money.

In particular, Kim Hyun-tae's plan copy is very detailed, and every step is clearly listed, as long as you follow the copy, there will be no mistakes.

That's why Lee Sung-chan admires Kim Hyun-tae so much.

Of course, he didn't know that Kim Hyun-tae was all a 'copycat' thing, a routine that Koreans had been playing in another time and space.

It's just that the Koreans haven't thought about this problem in another time and space, so they were taken out by Kim Hyun-tae.

Lee Sung-chan said that he was very optimistic about the development of celebrity peripheral products, and Kim Hyun-tae had no worries, which was completely relieved.

After all, if Li Chengcan can agree and be optimistic, he can also avoid his own words in the future, and now this is the best result.

However, the fact that YG is only worth $80 million really makes Kim Hyun-tae speechless.

He really wanted to yell at Lee Sung-chan, "Isn't your YG the biggest agency in South Korea? But in the end he held back.

YG isn't worth much, so it's cheaper.

Obviously, although South Korea has begun to export its own cultural values to Asia with celebrities as the forward, in private, the South Korean government is not very good at this matter.

At the same time, those who follow the policy to invest in the entertainment industry are just planning to get a vote and leave, and they don't think about doing a good job and developing like Li Chengcan.

Therefore, YG, which claims to be the largest brokerage company in South Korea, is worth only $80 million. And not surprisingly.

Of course, this has nothing to do with the values of Korea as a whole.

The mainstream values of South Korea in a different time and space are to study hard and be admitted to university. Then to be a civil servant, and at the worst of all, to work in a large company like Seven Star Electronics, such a life can be considered perfect.

Being an artist or something, it's all very non-'stream' work.

Of course, in a different time and space, it has not yet developed to the time of people and combinations such as "Quan Zhilong" and "Girls' Generation". The entertainment industry is really not very attractive.

In particular, the status of artists has not been high in South Korea.

Therefore, even though South Korea has played the slogan of 'exporting Korean values through entertainment', in fact, their status has not improved much for the artists who have worked hard for it.

This is especially true for singers, comedians, second-rate TV drama actors, and movie actors who are not in the stream.

South Korea, which is in a different time and space, adheres to the Confucianism of China, although the people do not say it, but they all regard artists as 'lower nine streams' in their hearts, which is an indisputable fact.

Therefore, there will be a few people who are really thinking about the development of brokerage companies.

Kim Hyun-tae is different. He sees a business opportunity in this, an opportunity to make a lot of money, so of course he will 'do his best', everything is for the money's sake."

"Let's build our own factory, I plan to make star image ornaments at the beginning, as well as posters, key chains, mobile phone chains and other small things, and then slowly expand step by step, of course, we will give money for the use of artist images. At least they will earn more than they run, and as for how much it will be, you can just see how much it will be. ”

Kim Hyun-tae will not give a specific figure for the image royalty, but will throw the question to Lee Sung-chan. Let him solve this matter.

In Kim Hyun-tae's view, with the urine sex of Koreans, basically they won't give a lot.

So this is a very offensive thing that will make people hate.

Then he can't come forward for this kind of thing, and Li Chengcan is very suitable.

Although Kim Hyun-tae said it very vaguely, Lee Sung-chan heard the meaning. Therefore, he did not hesitate to respond.

"I'll take care of this, but who do we choose to be the example in the early stage?"

It's true that YG has a lot of artists, so it's a question of who to choose.

Besides, for artists, this is also a good thing that can make a windfall, so they will not object.

Li Chengcan is not worried about this at all.

As an authentic Korean stick in another time and space, Li Chengcan knows very well how to squeeze those artists, so that they can not only squeeze them, but also make them grateful to Dade.

Even when Lee Sung-chan responded to Kim Hyun-tae, he had already thought about how to tell those artists in his heart.

But choosing who made Li Chengcan a little difficult.

"There's nothing difficult about this, just choose a man and a woman, and you need to have a certain popularity. After all, we also test the water first. ”

This problem, which makes Lee Sung-chan feel a little embarrassed, is actually very easy to solve in the eyes of Kim Hyun-tae, and it must be to choose a popular artist.

It's not popular, and there's no market for the gadgets you make, right?

Of course, if you want to subdivide, men should be handsome and women should be stylish...... Ahem, sexy, or cute.

"By the way, Mr. Kwon Do-ryong wants you to contact him when you have time, he would like to have a private meeting with you, I think there may be something to discuss with you. ”

Seven Star Electronic Power Daolong?

Kim Hyun-tae's eyes were a little puzzled, he didn't know what Kwon Do-ryong meant by meeting in private, after all, he was not familiar with Kwon Do-ryong, and the business he ran did not have any intersection.

"Mr. Kwon Do-ryong helped to recover 10% of YG's shares, saying that it was a small gift for you to meet, and I hope you will accept it. ”

For Kwon Do-ryong's confession, Lee Sung-chan didn't dare to forget it negligently, so he finally found an opportunity to convey it to Kim Hyun-tae.

"Okay, I'll contact him later. ”

Although he was very confused, Kim Hyun-tae decided to contact Kwon Do-ryong to see what he was going to do.

At this time, in the office of the president of the Seven Star Electronics Group Building, Quan Daolong took a fax from the United States and read it very carefully.

This fax came to 'Frankstein Laboratories', and it was marked in detail as CNN Holdings, and some of the things listed on the fax had to be taken seriously by Kwon Do-ryong.

The image quality and resolution have been doubled, and the system has been run 50% faster, especially because Kwon Do-ryong has been concerned that he has a new chip (CPU) that is more than three times faster than the most advanced processing available.

And this news is the main factor for Kwon Do-ryong to find Lee Sung-chan yesterday and ask him to convey that he wants to meet Kim Hyun-tae.

As the controller of Seven Star Electronics, it is impossible for Kwon Daolong not to know what kind of impact it will have on the smartphone industry once the data listed on the other party's fax is true.

He's so excited!

However, the other party made it very clear on the fax that this matter could only be done with Kim Hyun-tae's consent, after all, the research funds of the laboratory were provided by CNN under Kim Hyun-tae's name. (To be continued.) )
