The purpose of Director Kim’s call was very simple, just to share with Liu Xin’an the good results of Red Velvet’s return in terms of pre-sales.

In today's digital age, buying physical albums is something only fans do.

Therefore, today’s album sales are actually much less valuable than in the past.

But the company still values ​​these, and these will also be proof of Red velvet's popularity.

Bae Zhuhyun and the others analyzed that the success in pre-sales this time was mostly due to the previous variety show in China and the recent popular "Ahn-Bae's Law", while S-M's investigation on this aspect is more intuitive.

Bae Zhuhyun also had many personal fans in the past, but they are far less exaggerated than this time.

And ever since Liu Xin'an and Liu Xin'an began to secretly speculate on CP and guide public opinion... her popularity, which was already somewhat broken, has once again had a terrifying upward trend.

After experiencing such a huge public opinion storm last year, Bae Joo-hyun was able to produce such results, which somewhat exceeded the expectations of senior officials.

Similarly, Pei Zhuxuan's results this time further reflect how terrifying the mainland market is.

So, the weight of the three words "Liu Xin'an" in S-M has also increased with the rising tide.

But S-M is a businessman after all, and they are often very crazy when it comes to interests.

"...Personal variety show and solo solo?"

Hearing what Director Jin said, Liu Xin'an was stunned.

"Yes, the company is currently considering this project."

Liu Xin'an frowned and kept thinking in his heart why Chief Kim said this to him. After a short period of reflection, he asked in a confused tone: "Of course I respect Zhu Hyun herself.

I would like to ask Director Kim to discuss this matter with Zhu Hyun."

Although Chief Kim was sharing this project with Liu Xin'an on the surface, in fact, Chief Kim was referring to Liu Xin'an's opinions.

Showing goodwill to Liu Xin'an does not necessarily mean giving Liu Xin'an any gifts. The same is true for Bae Zhuhyun.

"For this solo, we plan to have Irene release the Chinese version simultaneously. If there is a chance then, I hope we can continue to cooperate."

After hearing this, Liu Xin'an raised his eyebrows slightly.

It is unrealistic to develop in China in a serious way, but there are always some ways to circumvent it.

For example...release a Chinese version of the album.

We didn't do this before because there was no exact data to support it and the company didn't want to do something thankless.

But now, losing in the pre-sale can already explain a lot of problems.

"...Are you too anxious? Zhuhyun and the others' return has just begun."

"Hahahaha, this is just the current plan. Isn't this because you, Mr. Liu Xin'an, are from China? Your reference will definitely help us prepare."

"You are serious, let's wait until we return this time before talking."

"Okay, I won't bother you anymore."

After the call ended, Liu Xin'an put down his phone and frowned, while Li Chenglu, who was looking at him curiously, also came over.

"what's the situation?"

"You should have joined a lot of Joohyun...or the Red Velvet fan group, right?"

"Well, that's right. What's wrong?"

"Director Jin called me just now and told me that the pre-sales of Zhuhyun's album have exploded this time. The pre-sales alone have almost exceeded 100,000 in terms of sales. Do you know?"

"Oh? It's already 100,000?"

It is not a very secret thing for fans to spontaneously spend money to buy sales and charts for their favorite artists. Almost all people who are involved in the star-chasing circle...whether at home or abroad, have done this.

Artists are often compared with each other, and compared to those illusory fan numbers, serious album sales are the measure of an artist's performance.

"Is this a good result?"

"Of course, this is just a pre-sale. There are many fan sites in China that wait for the product to be released before buying it. I wouldn't be surprised if it doubles or triples by then."

"...So S-M is eyeing this opportunity. They want to take advantage of this opportunity to prepare personal work for Zhuhyun after their return, such as a solo."

Li Chenglu's eyes widened. Maybe this news is the best news for fans, but...

"So anxious?"

"Well, the Chinese version of the album will also be released simultaneously."

"It's really ugly to eat. I'm calling you... I guess I want to ask your opinion?"

"I guess that's what it means."

Li Chenglu frowned. After thinking for a while, he realized that he didn't understand the twists and turns inside. After that, he waved his hands irritably: "Call uncle for consultation. This is beyond our knowledge."

Because they are not insiders, they are definitely not as good as professionals when it comes to weighing the pros and cons, but...for things like leeks, you have to wait until the leeks mature, right?

"No, for Zhu Hyun now, too many activities are not good for her. Let's wait until this return is over."

Liu Xin'an said softly, then put away his phone and walked towards his live broadcast room: "I'm going to start broadcasting."

"Oh..." Li Chenglu looked at Liu Xin'an's back, his eyes flashing with relief.

This guy has really grown up a lot.

It’s so gratifying to have her as a sister!

———

According to Pei Zhuxuan, Liu Xin'an and Li Chenglu set off from home at 5:30 in the afternoon and drove to the S-M office building.

Because he had been here many times, Liu Xin'an went upstairs with his employee badge in a familiar manner, while Li Chenglu followed behind him, looking at the office building curiously.

"Have you not been here before?"

Li Chenglu spread his hands: "Last time I came here for work, this time I came here for tourists. The mood is different."

This chapter is not finished yet. Please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Liu Xin'an was not curious about the difference between these two points, so he did not answer Li Chenglu and just took Li Chenglu to the elevator.

Went upstairs and came to the door of Red Velvet's practice room.

Although the door to the practice room is closed, some music can still be heard vaguely.

He knocked lightly on the door, and soon, the music in the room stopped suddenly. After a while, the door of the practice room opened, and a beautiful girl with black hair poked her head out. After seeing Liu Xin'an's face clearly,

Show an excited smile.

"Brother-in-law is here!"

The only person who can say words that can freeze Liu Xin'an with such a energetic voice is Kim Ye-rim, the youngest member of Red Velvet.

This sentence of brother-in-law made Liu Xin'an embarrassed.

"Uh... Yelin, isn't this a bit early to call me?"

"Not early, not early, I think it's pretty good, oh! And Sister Cheng Lu, long time no see, Sister Cheng Lu!"

Just kidding, Red Velvet's current achievements are inextricably related to the somewhat embarrassing man in front of them. For this reason, Jin Yelin and others wanted to pack Bae Zhuhyun and send it to Liu Xinan.

"Long time no see, Yelin! The look you come back with this time is perfect for you!"

"Hehehe, are there any?" Jin Yilin smiled happily, then turned sideways to let a few people in. At the same time, she turned to the sisters sitting and chatting in the corner of the practice room and shouted loudly: "Brother-in-law and Cheng Lu are here!

"

Should I say that she is indeed Kim Ye-rin? She easily made Bae Joo-hyun blush with just one sentence.

It’s not that easy for Liu Xin’an to do this kind of thing!

"Yeah! Jin Yelin!"

Miss Pei, who was always a shameless person, became angry. She stood up on her hands and knees from where she was sitting, as if she was going to rush towards Jin Yilin.

The latter was hiding behind Liu Xin'an.

"Ah! Brother-in-law, save me!"

"..." Liu Xin'an reached out and grabbed his girlfriend's arms with a speechless expression, which actually stopped Pei Zhuhyun from teaching her sister.

"Let me go, I'm going to beat her to death!"

Bae Zhuhyun has the right to teach Jin Yelin a lesson. You must know that when Jin Yelin first came to the company to practice, she always took care of the youngest sister.

Even the uniforms Jin Yelin wore when she was in school were ironed by her!

"Okay, okay, Yelin is just joking."

Having collaborated so many times, Liu Xin'an has long been familiar with the members of Red Velvet.

Including Park Soo-young and Kim Ye-rin, who were not familiar with them at first.

Similarly, if it weren't for familiarity, Kim Ye-rim would definitely not have teased Bae Joo-hyun and Yoo Shin-an so blatantly.

Although she is skinny, she is not completely brainless.

The angry Bae Zhuhyun was pulled by Liu Xin'an's arm and left. The relieved Jin Yelin returned to the sisters with a smile, and excitedly high-fived them in celebration.

Li Chenglu also walked over and asked gossiping about this return.

There were only two days left, and she really couldn't wait any longer.

On the other side, Liu Xin'an, who pulled Pei Zhuxuan to the side, did have something to say to Pei Zhuxuan.

"Yeah, whose side are you on?"

Bae Zhuhyun, who broke free from Liu Xin'an's arm, glared dissatisfied at the man who was helping her sister to stop her. This was her boyfriend, right? Shouldn't he cooperate with her to catch Jin Yelin?

"I'm definitely on your side, but Yelin is right, I will be their brother-in-law sooner or later."
