Chapter 66 My Goddess of Welfare
【Is this person an idiot?】
Kwon Eunbi thought to herself.
She wasn't a baby-faced person, and she didn't look like a student at all, did she? She was already this old, and he was still inviting her to be a trainee?
Thinking this, Kwon Eunbi still took the business card he handed over, and then...
"Pre... President?!"
Kwon Eunbi looked at the business card in her hand in shock, then looked up at Jiang Shu's young face, which seemed to be the same age as her, and then lowered her head to look at the business card in her hand again.
"You... are really the President of DM Entertainment?"
"You can find my photo on Google," Jiang Shu said with a smile.
"Uh... do you mind if I confirm?" Kwon Eunbi took out her phone and asked tentatively.
"Please do." Jiang Shu made a gesture of invitation.
Only then did Kwon Eunbi open her phone and search for Jiang Shu's name, and indeed saw the photo of Jiang Shu, the President of DM Entertainment.
She looked up at Jiang Shu, and it really was the same person.
Although the online entries and information could be modified, generally speaking, they were still somewhat credible, and could be used as a channel to confirm information.
"Why are you looking for me to be a trainee? I'm not a student, I'm already twenty-three this year," Kwon Eunbi asked, looking at Jiang Shu in confusion.
"I don't look at age when I look for trainees, only whether they're pleasing to the eye," Jiang Shu said with a chuckle.
"Pleasing to the eye?"
Jiang Shu was pleased, but Kwon Eunbi was dumbfounded.
What kind of reason was that?
How did your company survive until now with such a subjective answer?
"How about it? Are you interested in coming to our company?" Jiang Shu asked with a chuckle.
Looking at Kwon Eunbi in front of him, the bonds related to her appeared in his mind.
Kwon Eunbi (B)
Bonds: None.
Awakened. Kwon Eunbi (A)
Bonds: fantasy fairy tale (12), Goddess of Welfare (1).
Goddess of Welfare:
Effect: After activation, stage performances showcasing the body significantly increase attention, but reduce the increase of loyal fans.
A decent card, the Goddess of Welfare bond effect was also good, but Jiang Shu already had Lee Ji-eun as his trump card, so his need for female soloists was already left to chance. After all, compared to solo, girl groups had more ways to make money.
One Lee Ji-eun was enough for solo.
The important part of Kwon Eunbi, like Li Caiyan, was the IZONE bond.
Now the company already had three IZONE puzzle pieces: Li Caiyan, Ahn Yujin, and Zhang Yuanying. Adding Kim Chae-won, whom Jin Zhongting just mentioned, and Kwon Eunbi in front of him, this was already close to half of the Iz*One puzzle.
According to the current progress, he might be able to gather nine people, excluding the three Japanese members, before the end of the year.
Moreover, Sister Kwon, as the leader of IZONE, was indeed much more qualified than the leaders of most popular groups.
"I want to think about it." Kwon Eunbi did not answer Jiang Shu.
"No problem. Contact me when you've made up your mind." Jiang Shu pointed to the business card in Kwon Eunbi's hand and said.
Kwon Eunbi was different from Bae Joo-hyun. Bae Joo-hyun was not only older, but she also had the idea of debuting, but had never realized it. She had an obsession with debuting.
Kwon Eunbi, on the other hand, had already debuted, even if she had flopped, she had still debuted.
She had some understanding of what happened after debuting in the industry, and it was precisely because of this that Jiang Shu's words about inviting her to DM Entertainment because she was pleasing to his eye made Kwon Eunbi a little uneasy.
"Oh, right, our company also has a twenty-seven-year-old trainee who is about to debut." Jiang Shu seemed to have thought of something and said to Kwon Eunbi with a chuckle.
"???"
How much?
Twenty-seven years old?
Jiang Shu smiled at her, then motioned to Jin Zhongting and turned to leave.
Kwon Eunbi watched Jiang Shu and the other person leave, then lowered her head to look at the business card in her hand.
Even a twenty-seven-year-old "elderly" trainee was about to debut?
This company was quite strange.
...
The reason Jiang Shu said that was to prevent Kwon Eunbi from thinking he had ulterior motives.
This was not uncommon in the industry. Many small entertainment company bosses used the excuse of forming a girl group to harm pretty girls in various art schools.
In order to debut, many girls were indeed willing to sacrifice their bodies to get this opportunity.
Jiang Shu had heard of such things, so he told Kwon Eunbi in advance to avoid her thinking he was looking for her to sleep with her.
Although Jiang Shu wouldn't mind if it was possible.
Please, this was Big Chest Sister Kwon!
Ding-a-ling-ling!
A piercing sound spread throughout the campus.
"What's going on?" Jiang Shu asked in confusion.
"That's the dismissal bell," Jin Zhongting explained.
Jiang Shu nodded suddenly, "That means we can't go to Kim Minjeong and Kim Chae-won's side now."
"Yes."
Jiang Shu stopped walking and stroked his chin.
He still had things to do in the afternoon. He had to take Sun Shengwan and the other two to talk to Min Xizhen about Red Velvet's debut, and he couldn't delay it just to find people.
Then...
Jiang Shu's gaze fell on Jin Zhongting.
"You don't seem to attend classes often? Last time and this time, you were both wandering around outside when others were in class," Jiang Shu asked curiously.
"Because I'm going to college, I only take vocal and composition-related art classes at school, which is approved by the school," Jin Zhongting explained.
Jiang Shu nodded suddenly.
"So, that means you don't necessarily have class when Kim Chae-won and Kim Minjeong are in class?"
Jin Zhongting didn't know what Jiang Shu was going to do, but he still nodded.
Jiang Shu looked at Jin Zhongting with satisfaction.
"Zhongting, do you want to make money?"
"Huh?"
"Our DM Entertainment is very short of people right now. Kim Minjeong and Kim Chae-won, whom you mentioned, are both well-known figures in the school. Since you recommend them so highly, I'm sure they're very good, so I won't personally evaluate them."
"You go find them. If you can invite them to become trainees at DM Entertainment, I'll give you 100,000 won per person. How about it?"
Being praised and "trusted" by a company president, the young man immediately felt a sense of satisfaction from being trusted, and was instantly motivated.
"Brother Jiang, don't worry, I promise to bring them to DM Entertainment!"
Jiang Shu smiled and nodded, reaching out to pat Jin Zhongting's shoulder.
"I believe in your ability."
Then he took out two business cards from his pocket and handed them to Jin Zhongting.
"Here are two of my business cards. You might need them when you invite them."
"Yes!"
"Let's go, I'll treat you to dinner," Jiang Shu said with a chuckle.
Jin Zhongting became even more excited.
Eating with the president of an entertainment company, what an honor!
Looking at the excited Jin Zhongting, Jiang Shu chuckled to himself.
Just a casual compliment, spending a thousand won plus a meal, and he could fool Kim Chae-won and Kim Minjeong over. This deal was really worth it, wasn't it?
This was truly a K-pop business genius, wasn't it?
Jiang Shu happily pulled Jin Zhongting towards the school gate, both sides looking forward to the arrival of Kim Minjeong and Kim Chae-won.
