Chapter 456

Episode 456

“Hey Min-ha!”

“… Uh uh uh Harin.”

Mirinae’s Park Min-ha has been living in a state where her soul is about to pass out.

Due to the company’s chaos, the group’s schedule was disrupted and everyone was at the dorm for a long time, so each member was trying to get rid of anxiety by focusing on their hobbies or practicing.

But only Park Min-ha acts like that.

‘Am I too stressed out?’

Again, the weight of the leader… . Mirinae Seong Ha-rin seriously crossed her arms.

At that time, Park Min-ha suddenly spoke out.

“Harin, we… If you can go to another company, would you go?”

“… ?!”

“Oh no. Pretend I didn’t hear it.”

If there’s a person who can pretend they didn’t hear that, they won’t be idols!

‘Another company? Another company?’

Did you get any signal?

Seong Harin knew it too. that the company is in trouble.

However, it is close to impossible to break out of an entertainment company with the remaining contract period.

If that’s the case, if something realistic happens in between… no way!

“Go to our testa label??”

“Shh shh!”

Park Min-ha was shocked.

Then, as if someone was listening, he quickly turned his head left and right, then hurriedly put his hand to his mouth.

“Really?”

“No no no that’s not it!”

However, he hesitated and added it.

“… It seems like a possibility.”

what!

Park Min-ha was never a member who would say useless bluffs.

If that’s the case, it’s because you’ve really heard something, so this kind of sound comes out.

At that moment, a forgotten doubt struck Sung Ha-rin’s head. The two had a particularly meaningful conversation.

“… … .”

Do you have Min-ha’s source of information? .

“no way… Did senior Park Moon-dae tell you?”

“… ?!”

Park Min-ha hardened.

In response to the reaction that seemed to have been stabbed in the middle, Seong Ha-rin’s suspicions that had been buried began to creep up again.

‘The two of you are dating… .’

“Harin-ah, aren’t rumors that we’re close secretly circulating? The frightening situation in which such stories are circulating among company officials, other idols, and maybe even fans… .”

I don’t think so either.

“Oh no! I guessed it!”

“after.”

Park Min-ha let out a long sigh.

Then he sat down on a chair with an expression as if he had been burnt white.

“Your reasoning is correct… .”

“… huh.”

It seem to be like that.

But the last doubt I decided not to come back to again.

‘Yeah, there’s no way a kid who’s sincere about being an idol like Min-ha would already show off!’

If that’s the case, it means that I was talking to Park Moon-dae in a completely business way.

“Then what the hell is going on?”

“… … Please wait a bit.”

Park Min-ha was looking at her smartphone with a melancholy expression.

“… ?”

Sung Ha-rin raised a question mark in a situation she could not understand at all, but Park Min-ha did not give any more answers.

And a few days later, a cautious call came from the company.

The news that the group will be able to hold the group name directly, not the company!

“Why is that?”

“It must be aiming for a change of atmosphere. Something like image making?”

“aha.”

The members talked about that, but being able to buy a group name was a very attractive proposition anyway!

Even if the company changes, you can keep the group name!

‘oh my god.’

Harin kept his mouth shut, but soon realized the reality.

‘… We don’t have a lot of money to pay for this easily.’

wait for a sec.

Then, on the pretext of handing over this… Isn’t it robbing us more by pretending to be generous and deducting it from the settlement of debt?

If you don’t intend to lead the group for a long time anyway, and you’re a one-hit business, wouldn’t it be nice to have a group trademark!

‘Aren’t you doing this because you have no intention of raising Mirinae for a long, long time!’

However, the company called for a more conscientious price than expected.

“… ?”

Of course, the unit was over a billion, but it meant that it was not a crazy unit like several tens of billions.

“I really want to buy it! huh!”

“If it’s Minha, then I’m fine!”

And with Park Min-ha’s active initiative and Yul-gi’s bright words, the members willingly pooled their money and bought the trademark under a common name.

“What about the other groups?”

“It was like a living atmosphere.”

haha Except for the rookies from the survival show who are on the verge of sinking due to controversy, there is no way to miss this opportunity.

… Although it was a pity to play the press as if the company had just handed it over after selling it, the atmosphere was good anyway.

It’s bittersweet to see people respond well, saying, “It’s going on a completely different trajectory from the T1, which is used as consumables for artists,” but it was a good thing in the long run.

‘How many years are left until the renewal of the contract.’

During Testa, the period was 5 years, but after that season became a huge hit, it was limited to 7 years.

‘good. The next album will be a hit! You can enter the Testa label!’

Seong Ha-rin decided to think as best as possible!

… That is until this article popped up.

[Testa renewal contract cancelled… Where is the next nest of KPOP stars]

“… … .”

Testa won’t renew the contract.

‘Oh no.’

The Testa label looks like it’s going to disband?!

‘These people are escaping!’

They are running away from each other!

Then what the hell did Park Min-ha say? Seong Ha-rin turned her head on the YouTube screen and looked at Park Min-ha… .

“Is it Minha?”

“Heh heh heh… haha.”

Park Min-ha was smiling dejectedly at the WeTube screen.

It wasn’t a surprise.

It just felt like an irreversible decision had been made. It’s like scraping an enormously expensive item with a 24-month installment plan.

“… ??”

Park Min-ha was looking back on her past choices, letting Jeong Yul-gi poke her.

‘this… Is it correct to think that this is right??’

I had never strayed so far, so I had to go without getting hit this time as well.

‘Please!’

Park Min-ha swayed like a balloon doll for opening business and picked up her smartphone.

* * *

Jiying.

-Mirinae Park Min-ha: I heard that you are not renewing your contract… Congratulations on going to a new place.

okay. The time has come for articles to appear.

I replied to the talk while deleting the contact from here and there.

-Thank you.

Of course, this guy probably wasn’t sent to celebrate.

‘I’m guessing.’

I added the following.

-Don’t worry, it’s okay.

The reply came back in a few tens of seconds.

-Mirinae Park Min-ha: Yes…

-Mirinae Park Min-ha: Of course. You invited me to the group chat room, but I believe in you.

what

It means that I can open a group chat room too, so don’t look back.

‘It’s gotten faster.’

I smiled and said, ‘Okay,’ and turned off my smartphone.

And I wasn’t the only one looking at the contact.

“I’m afraid to contact you.”

“Uh yeah… .”

Contacts about the article are pouring in to the members from here and there.

And I reflected on the news I heard yesterday.

‘The general manager quit.’

Without missing the timing, he bounced.

In addition, the fact that Testa does not renew the contract has been reported in the news.

Of course, it is not an article published by the company.

‘We reported it.’

Of course, I didn’t do it myself, but I spilled it at the feet of the officials as if it was a mistake, but anyway.

1. Stop loss of T1.

2. The general manager’s stop loss.

3. Testa’s stop loss.

In the end, the company saw such crazy losses in a short period of time with unexpected timing.

This moment when the company is shaking the most.

“Is it going to the next plan now?”

Yes.

I turned my head and looked at the person in charge.

The one in charge of the most trustworthy and stable image in this group.

“Thank you very much.”

“I should take good care of you, brother.”

Ryu Cheong-wu, who had already finished his preparations, left the dorm with a smile.

The destination was the company conference room.

However, not to T1 Stars, but to the conference room of the testa label, which is an affiliate label.

* * *

‘After… … .’

Kwon Hee-seung, an idol who is still nicknamed ‘Gold 2’ by Park Moon-dae, was looking into the past of the group chat room.

It was a group chat room created by Park Moon-dae for ‘exit from the company’.

‘I thought you’d help me if I brought up the wish ticket.’

Isn’t this company’s problem too difficult? So, Kwon Hee-seung was going to use at least the wish ticket he received when he was dragged into that bizarre virtual world and went through hardships.

However, without even going there, Moondae Park reached out his hand first.

There was just a condition.

– Stay calm no matter what happens.

This is it.

That’s why Kwon Hee-seung stood firm even in the mess where the directors were arrested, the trademark was sold, the head of the headquarters went out, and the testa went out.

‘He must be drawing the big picture.’

Although Park Mun-dae’s attitude was on the radical side, he knew. Park Moon-dae hyung was definitely the type with loyalty and affection!

… Although Testa really left without renewing the contract, it felt like my heart was going to drop.

‘are you okay. It won’t be a loss!’

But the next news, no matter how optimistic he was, really nearly broke his heart.

“Hey, all the crazy label people there have left.”

“… !? uh huh?”

“That Testa Label Orbit? People there are quitting one after another!”

oh my god.

And through word-of-mouth, Kwon Hee-seung soon realized that it was not an exaggerated rumor, but that almost everyone had left the company.

Of course, the existing company also went into an uproar.

-Isn’t this normal?

– Oh no way, something else will explode… ?

Those who were able to change jobs began to leave the company like a relay race.

Almost half of the company’s personnel escaped, and almost all of the superiors were left out, and the company that was not functioning properly seemed to be completely paralyzed.

“… … .”

Kwon Hee-seung became even more anxious, but decided to trust Park Moon-dae.

It’s because it’s good for mental health to think positively because celebrities who aren’t in the first team aren’t going to lose anything anyway!

Of course, KakaoTalk was sent.

-Hyung… The company people are evaporating

-And where is Testa going

?

The reply came almost immediately.

-No evaporation

-Wait a little longer

“… ?”

And that same evening, an article appeared on the entertainment news main page.

[Testa’s special loyalty… It wasn’t a bird’s nest, the label’s agency]

[Contract with Testa’s new agency… As it turns out, “CEO” who left the company]

“… !”

Yes.

Testa did not directly set up an agency.

However, he did not go to his former agency.

Instead, their label representative resigned and transferred to a newly established agency.

At that moment, Kwon Hee-seung realized.

‘… Could it be that all the label employees have resigned?’

Yes.

If Park Moon-dae was in charge of the general manager, Ryu Cheong-woo was in charge of label people and grilled and boiled them.

In the midst of the anxiety that the company’s risky prospects will explode, I will have to ‘lose my money’… It stimulated a kind of crowd psychology.

-We really… If I can work with these people, I think I will consider renewing the contract again.

The label representative willingly took the rope.

Hearing that Testa was following them, most of the label employees looked around and jumped off the sinking ship together.

So, in the end, this is what happened.

Labels cannot stand alone.

However, it disappeared as if it was scattered, and it was reconstructed and became a new agency!

‘Awesome, so my brother said it wasn’t an evaporation.’

Kwon Hee-seung admired it, but soon realized his situation.

‘Wait, but what about us?’

spacer.

we… Could it be that I am being abandoned like this… ?

-brother??

-Brother??

The reply came again soon.

-A little more

‘no, how much more?!’

Kwon Hee-seung wanted to cry, so he sent KakaoTalk.

After sending it, I was slightly worried that he might have seemed angry, but Park Mun-dae was not angry.

I just replied like this.

-Until people are more anxious than you

* * *

“… uh?”

and after some timen/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

I heard unexpected news.

“The company… It was acquired.”

“… ??”

“Testa’s new agency bought T1 Stars… .”

yes??

Kwon Hee-seung almost dropped his smartphone at the manager’s words.

Then, I just arrived and found the hot KakaoTalk of Park Moon-dae.

-I think it’s possible to cancel your contract.

-Shall we cancel it now?

“… … .”

‘oh my god.’

After heightening the psychology as much as possible that this company will go bankrupt.

By reducing market value and future prospects as much as possible.

At the lowest price when it is most friendly.

Testa’s new agency ate T1 Stars.

“… … .”

This is why… I was told to stay still.

Kwon Hee-seung realized reflexively.

If you come out with a corner that you believe in or actively come out… This atmosphere could be disturbed, so I ordered ‘stay still’.

‘and.’

really… It was a hit.

It was an unexpected exit from the company.
