Chapter 235 Crazy Concert
After talking about Chinese Kung Fu for an hour or so with these Hollywood action movie stars, Stallone finally talked about his movie, The Expendables. He spent nearly half an hour describing his mercenary story. Yang Mo listened and felt that it was all about fighting from beginning to end, and the story was secondary.
But think about it, a movie with so many action stars, people who buy tickets to the cinema are here for the bloody fights. Who would watch it if it's all about love instead of fighting?
During the conversation, Yang Mo occasionally made some suggestions and expressed his views.
Everyone had a very pleasant chat and time soon passed into the evening. Yang Mo was thinking about the Girls' Generation concert, so she took the initiative to say goodbye and went straight to the concert.
When he arrived at the stadium where the concert was held, he found that there was already a long queue waiting to enter, so he quickly called Jessica. A moment later , Girls' Generation's manager Lee Jin-joo trotted in, shook hands with Yang Mo very enthusiastically, and even bowed.
Yang Mo has no good feelings towards this Korean aunt. Before Girls' Generation debuted, Yang Mo lent them her house, and she was very grateful. Later, when the candid photo shooting incident happened, her face was as stinky as if covered with shit. Later, she perfectly solved the matter and made Girls' Generation a hit, and her face looked better, but she still looked upset. Now Yang Mo has become a superhero known all over the world, and her fawning appearance is almost like kneeling down to lick her.
"Mr. Yang, thank you for coming." Li Zhenzhu greeted Yang Mo in Korean English.
Yang Mo didn't bother to pay attention to her flattery and asked directly: "Where's Jessica?"
"They are putting on makeup backstage now and will be on stage soon." Li Zhenzhu quickly replied, and made a gesture of invitation, respectfully leading the way for Yang Mo: "Follow me, I will take you to the VIP area first, we have reserved the best seat for you."
"Oh." Yang Mo nodded and followed.
Because she was walking through the VIP channel, she did not attract the attention of these fans. If these guys recognized Yang Mo, the order would probably be messed up. Yang Mo's current popularity is at the level of a superstar, and she causes a sensation wherever she goes.
After entering the passage, Li Zhenzhu suddenly spoke again: "Mr. Yang, do you know why Jessica and the others have not renewed their contract with the company yet?"
Um?
Yang Mo frowned when he heard this. He had told Jessica about this matter. He wanted Jessica and the others to leave SM, a company known for exploiting and squeezing labor. He didn't expect that they would really take the first step.
The girls have bravely taken the first step, and Yang Mo has no choice but to actively prepare.
"Mr. Yang? What's wrong with you? Do you know the reason?" Li Zhenzhu saw Yang Mo in a daze and asked again.
"I'm not sure. I'm not very interested in your entertainment industry affairs." Yang Mo said perfunctorily. He did not tell the truth.
Li Zhenzhu didn't hear the perfunctory tone in Yang Mo's voice. In her eyes, Yang Mo was just a basketball player. So, she flattered him and said, "In fact, with your current popularity, you can definitely enter the entertainment industry. Otherwise, you can sign a contract with our SM company. We can definitely make you a global superstar."
"Haha." Yang Mo chuckled and said very directly: "To me, your SM company is still a little small. My agent got me a sponsorship contract worth hundreds of millions of dollars in one day. Do all the artists in your SM company make that much in endorsement fees in a year?"
Yang Mo's contempt was not concealed at all. Li Zhenzhu's face was embarrassed after hearing it. Yang Mo's words really touched her soft spot. Korean artists earn little money. There is no way. It is a small country with few people. In addition, there are too many artists and too few markets, so they don't earn much. Even the top stars don't earn much. The pay is not comparable to that in mainland China, not to mention that in the United States. Yang Mo now earns tens of millions of dollars for a movie, which they dare not even dream of. Rain, their best artist in the United States, is still a supporting actor in the United States? His pay is only a few million US dollars. Can it be compared? Although SM is a top entertainment company in Korea, it is really too small for Yang Mo to accommodate such a big Buddha.
Yang Mo was so blunt and insulting. If it were someone else, they would have nothing to say even if they didn't get angry. But Aunt Li Zhenzhu was different. She was very thick-skinned and said, "We can actually develop other cooperation. For example, you can give your agency rights in Korea to our SM company. With our company's resources, we can definitely push you to the top of the Korean entertainment industry."
"Haha." Yang Mo chuckled twice. He originally wanted to directly reply, "I really don't care about the tiny market on the Korean Peninsula." But on second thought, it is better not to hurt your national feelings. Even a little bit of money is still money. Who knows, he might have to go there again in the future.
Yang Mo laughed because he didn't want to reject her harshly, but Li Zhenzhu felt that Yang Mo might be interested in her proposal, so she continued to tempt her: "Our SM company can give you a top star contract, 37% profit share, you take 7, we take 3..."
Before she finished her words, Yang Mo interrupted her unhappily: "Do you know how much I paid my current agent to get me a contract worth hundreds of millions of dollars?"
"I don't know." Li Zhenzhu shook her head in confusion.
"Five hundred thousand dollars."
"Ah?" Li Zhenzhu screamed in shock. If it were their company, the company could directly take away 400 to 500 million US dollars in commission. But Yang Mo only got 500,000.
"So, we are definitely not going to be able to reach an agreement on our cooperation, so let's not talk about it." Yang Mo waved his hand, walked to the VIP seats in the first row, found the chair with his name on it, and sat down.
The company would definitely not accept the commission rate Yang Mo proposed, so Li Zhenzhu stopped talking about it. After she brought Yang Mo a cup of hot coffee, she went backstage to get busy.
As time went on, more and more fans filled the stadium.
Soon, the concert officially began, nine girls wearing sexy hot pants descended from the sky, and under the light, they looked very sexy and beautiful. The whole audience was shocked, and a large group of Americans shouted their favorite members at the top of their lungs, and the atmosphere instantly became hot.
Although it is not as good as Yang Mo's interaction with the home fans at the American Airlines Center, it is still very good. And we have to admit that Koreans are world-class in concert performances, and all the stage props, lighting, and stage design are first-class.
Girls' Generation made a stunning entrance and started the show by dancing to "GEE". From Yang Mo's angle, nine pairs of sexy white legs were swaying in front of him, making him feel dry-mouthed and his mind was full of random thoughts. There was no other way. Yang Mo's personal physiological needs had not been met during this period. Last time, he and Kristen almost had sex, but he received a call for help from Lu Xuefei.
Yang Mo felt dry in the mouth, but the fans were so excited that they kept singing along, one song after another.
About half an hour later, the other members of Girls' Generation went downstairs to change their clothes, but Jessica stayed in the middle of the venue with the microphone. She took a deep breath and looked at Yang Mo affectionately. Before Yang Mo understood what was going on, Jessica asked in English: "Girls' Generation fans, do you know who my boyfriend is?"
Jessica's face was full of pride when she asked this question. To her, Yang Mo was the man she admired the most, even more than her father. Although she didn't like or want Yang Mo to risk his life to chase the kidnappers and fight with the criminals, she had to admit that Yang Mo's courage and momentum burned her, and she was proud that the superhero was her boyfriend.
"Super Yang!" All the fans shouted Yang Mo's name loudly.
"Haha." Jessica heard the fans ' unanimous recovery and laughed proudly twice, then pointed at Yang Mo's position and said, "He is here tonight, and he is going to sing a song for everyone. Do you want to welcome him?"
When Jessica said "He's coming to the concert tonight", the whole stadium was blown away, everyone was exclaiming and screaming, to them this concert guest was really a big star, they couldn't believe that the big easter egg of the concert would be the superhero Super Yang!
And when they heard that "he was going to sing a song for everyone", the fans raised the atmosphere to a climax, with waves of cheers coming one after another, almost blowing up the entire stadium.
Listening to the crazy screams at the scene, Li Zhenzhu, who was hiding behind the scenes, suddenly thought: With Yang Mo's current popularity, even if he only took 1%, it would be a huge amount of money! Should I discuss with the chairman in detail about the agency rights for him in Korea?
Amid the fierce cheers of the fans, Yang Mo slowly stood up and waved to everyone. At this time, the scene became even crazier, and some fans even fainted from excitement.
This was the first time Yang Mo felt the enthusiasm of fans in the entertainment industry. They were indeed much crazier than football fans. Because the shouts of more than 20,000 fans in the American Airlines Center were not as loud as the cheers of 5,000 fans here. They were really howling with their lives!
Yang Mo ran onto the stage quickly amid the excited cheers, and the first thing she did after she got on stage was hugging Jessica tightly.
Now, the screams from the audience became crazy again, and then another fan fainted because he couldn't breathe due to the crazy screaming.
After the hug, Yang Mo took the microphone from Jessica and asked everyone with a smile: "Do you want to see me and Jessica kissing?"
"Yes!!" More than 5,000 people shouted in unison, and the combined sound was more ferocious than an atomic bomb explosion.
