Chapter 145 – #20. Approach (12)
“Is the term golden return used in this case?”
“Hehe.”
“Really, how did you grow up so well? I was worried a lot when I said I was quitting the company, but I let go.”
“Hee hee!”
Felt good.
“To think that someone with such talent could be used as an office worker. There was no waste of talent like this.”
“But are you really buying both songs?”
“Yep. You have good sense.”
“Who are you going to call?”
“Will you be surprised if I tell you?”
“I wonder!”
“Red Witch.”
“!!!”
Ahyeon’s eyes widened as if they would pop out.
Red position.
Honey Enter’s flagship female idol group.
It is also the longest running idol group that is loved all over the world.
Of course, I am currently focusing on individual activities without group activities for 3 years.
Each individual has such a huge fandom that it fills up their schedules with just their individual schedules.
The company also had no reason to make Red Witch comeback as a group.
It’s because they make a huge amount of money with just their individual schedules.
“Seniors, are you making a comeback?!”
“It is still a foreign secret. So you know what to watch out for? Ahyeon trusted you and told you.”
“Sure!! Sure!”
“Since the Airplane kids are going to start their overseas activities this time around, why is there a vacancy among the staff in charge of Korea? I poked it to see if any of the celebrities in the agency wanted to make a comeback, and the Red Witch kids got caught.”
“Wow!! But if it’s Red Witch seniors, aren’t you going to do overseas activities together?”
Red Witch’s new song has been released, and of course there will be reactions from abroad.
“The Red Witch kids don’t want to go abroad. They say they don’t want to take long flights because they’re old. That’s why they said they didn’t make a big promotion this time, and only made it short in Korea.”
Short and bold, focusing on domestic activities, he plans to do few appearances on programs.
“If that’s the case, I understand.”
“Yep. Anyway, that’s why I was looking for a song, but I thought I had a good song after a long time, so the relationship was like this. I feel good because I feel like I’m doing this to do well.”
“To think my song was sung by Red Witch sunbaenims!! It’s such an honor.”
Of the two songs mentioned here, one was by Haesol, and the other was composed by Ahyeon.
Because of this, she was able to genuinely rejoice in her current situation.
Hae-sol’s song was only her feet soaked in for a moment, but the other song was written by her.
“Oh my, has time already passed like this? We chatted too much. Shall we write the contract?”
“Yes.”
The staff brought the contract and kindly explained each one.
“Is there anything you don’t understand?”
“No, I understand everything.”
“Are you thinking of becoming a company exclusive composer?”
“Yes?”
“Maybe it’s because you’re a trainee at our company, so the song you made really went well with our company atmosphere. If you sign a contract as an exclusive composer, you may be able to pay more than the music fee under the contract you received. In fact, I got it on the best terms by using my authority to the fullest. But is it a bit sad? Since you don’t have any experience, that’s the limit. But I think the song you made was really good.”
“Yes.”
7 million won for two songs.
The music cost was much more expensive than expected. Therefore, Ahyeon couldn’t hide her joy at the fact that she didn’t have to drag it out for a long time. She seemed to notice that Ah Hyun was satisfied with her grain, and her staff showed a hearty smile.
“If you sign a contract as an exclusive composer, I can do it for 5 million won. Of course, I’m talking about each song.”
Heeik?
Ahyeon’s eyes widen.
If it is 500 per song, it is 10 million won for two songs.
Ahyeon’s heart started beating fast.
She couldn’t believe she could make that much money.
“It will help you a lot in your career.”
“Honestly, I feel like I want to sign an exclusive composer contract right away.”
But Ahyeon shook her head.
“But my skills are still lacking.”
“Look at him? You’re never enough If you’re not enough, what will I be if I fell in love with your song and contacted you?”
“No no. Really, my skills are still lacking. There is so much to learn. If you don’t build the foundation properly and promote, you’ll definitely collapse later because it’s too much for you. I think it is still a step to learn.”
“Your standards are very high, you. To say that even after making a song like this, it’s not enough.”
I can’t tell her staff, but these songs weren’t made by her alone.
One of her two songs is a song she made herself, but honestly, she was inspired by a song she made by Haesol.
What if she hadn’t had a song made by Haesol?
This song would never have come out.
When she was able to create songs to her satisfaction alone, she intended to pursue a career as a professional.
“Honey Enter’s exclusive composer is an undeserved position for me right now. Next time, when I’m really ready, if you suggest it again, I’ll be happy to accept it.”
“I can’t help it because you say that.”
Her staff respected Ahyeon’s decision, even though she couldn’t contain her disappointment.
“Let’s make a contract with 800.”
“Yes? Why is the price suddenly increasing… ?”
“It means to take good care of our company. I think you would make a really good songwriter.”
Despite the fact that she is still not satisfied with her own skills, she has managed to create songs of this quality.
It seems that it is not enough for her to be happy, but Ahyeon was burning her desire to grow more.
From her staff point of view, Ahyeon seemed like a gifted genius composer who hadn’t burst yet.
‘If I can spend 1 million won more on a genius composer and leave a good image, that’s a good deal.’
In fact, Ahyeon was very moved by the staff at Honey Enter who took care of her.
“The next time a good song comes out, will it be sent to our company?”
“Sure!! Thank you so much.”
“We thank you for sending us a good song. Whoops!”
After Ahyeon finished writing the contract, she called Haesol excitedly.
“Song sold!! I got a whopping 4 million won.”
-Congratulations.
“Congratulations.”
“Wow!”
A sudden feeling of popularity from behind!
When I looked back in surprise, there was a face I missed so much and missed.
“Haesol!!”
“Oops!”
“Uh, how are you here? How?”
“You said you were coming to the company, but you should be able to not come. Good job. Really proud All grown up, all grown up.”
“Euhhhhh!”
Ahyeon couldn’t help but burst out laughing at Haesol’s praise.
Because his praise was so happy and happy.
♧ ♧ ♧
He must have been very happy to sell the song.
Ahyeon has been clinging to me more aggressively than ever.
Ah-hyeon manages to restrain herself at work, but as soon as she comes out, she starts kissing her violently.
Side, side, side!
“Ha ha, so good.”
“You look happy.”
“Yes, I am happy. Hehe. He asked me to become his exclusive composer.”
“Wow~ That’s recognized, right?”
“Okay!! Of course. There’s no way I can offer just anyone an exclusive composer.”
“So you said you would do it?”
“No~!”
“Why?”
Honey Enter’s exclusive composer will be of great help to your career.
It seemed like it was an offer that had no reason to refuse, but Ahyeon didn’t understand why she refused.
“The song sold this time is not my real skill.”
“What are you talking about? Of course it’s your skill.”
I know that the song I wrote with inspiration was born into better music as Ah Hyun’s hand touched it.
If I, who wrote the song, has a 50% share, then Ahyeoni, who further evolved the song, also has a 50% share.
“This song was heavily influenced by four songs. I didn’t make it by myself, it’s a fortune I made thanks to you. If I asked you to make it like the song you made this time, you wouldn’t be able to?”
There are still so many things to learn.
He said he didn’t want to act as if the song he got by luck was his real skill.
“I will regret it though.”
“I asked him to suggest me again when my real skill was enough to make such a song. I was also confirmed to know.”
“How about buying equipment with the money you received?”
“Equipment?”
“I want to create a studio just for the two of us. Of course, 8 million won is not enough for that?”
Where are the music machines for a penny or two? 8 million won was not enough money.
“I will invest the money I lack. The money I received the other day is quite good. I will continue to compose music in the future, but I can’t rent a recording studio forever.”
I received 4 million won for my first song.
The reason he received such a large amount of money must have been the price added to Ah Hyun’s anticipation for the future.
What if Ahyeon wasn’t a composer?
There was a high probability that the Honey Entertainer would have offered between 1 million and 2 million won, let alone 4 million won.
I was also looking forward to Ahyeon’s future.
Even Honey Entertainment is looking forward to her future, but she couldn’t help but invest in her, having seen her talent closest to her.
“Do not do that. There is still nothing lacking.”
“It’s inconvenient to share it with others.”
You have to make a reservation each time, there are limited hours you can rent per day, and security is weak.
What if you accidentally leave the USB plugged in or lose it?
The precious music inside them can be stolen in an instant.
“There are also security issues.”
“Um…”
Ahyeon, who had heard many times about how important security is among composers, couldn’t bear to say that it was okay.
“It costs a lot of money to build a studio.”
“I don’t mean to have everything right now. Every time it becomes money, I bring it in one by one.”
There will be essential machines, and there will be machines that can be optional.
It was a matter of obtaining only the essentials and adding options when the money was accumulated.
“It’s still burdensome…”
Just because she sold one song doesn’t make her a professional songwriter right away.
“I will support you for two years. Wouldn’t it be possible to imitate a professional composer in two years?”
“I’m sorry, how are you?”
“I think your talent is great. Don’t tell me it’s an illusion Even Honey Entertainment appreciates your talent enough to offer you an exclusive composer. If I help you, your talents can bloom faster, so why wait so long? If my help is really that much of a burden for you, you can repay it by becoming a pro.”
“…”
“Ah Hyun-ah. Are we strangers?”
“Ah… !”
Perhaps not wanting to answer that it was someone else, Ahyeon shut her mouth tightly.
“You’re not. If you are a family, can’t you get each other’s help when you need it? Won’t you help me when I’m in trouble?”
“Of course I will help.”
“So do i. I want to help you I am proud and happy that I have the ability to help you. I feel rewarded for my hard work.”
“Haesol-ah…”
Ah Hyun-yi, who was properly impressed by her, has tears in her eyes.
I hugged her tightly and patted her on the back.
“Let’s help each other and live. Because we are family.”
“Yes!”
After accepting my help, I suggested to Ah-hyun that she should seek advice from her older sister, Bok-soon.
“I’ve been to many places to open an academy. It’s a situation where you have to get them both to a soundproof place. I wonder if we can get some help if we talk about it.”
“Ugh, that’s right. I did not know.”
“It’s because I secretly searched for it without telling the company.”
There is nothing nice if the company finds out that you are leaving the company and opening an academy.
Bok-soon noona has been teaching her trainees at Honey Entertainment for a long time, and she is the one who created Honey Entertainment’s own singer style.
Her vacancy is bound to be very large.
