Chapter 028 Business with Justin
During the days when the bar was waiting for the opening of the bar, the members of the Dream Hunter team were training Korean every day. These geeks were very serious about learning Korean and could not count on writing, but they had learned a lot of simple terms in daily life. And Kim Joo-wook was also planning his own money-making plan.
He used his super account "k" in the entertainment industry forum to send out a promotional advertisement for the production team. With the reputation of "k" itself, everyone was very curious about the team for a while. Then, k entered the song trading section of the forum and sent out the first sale post for this account.
"Electronic dance music! Suitable for male singing (Justin Timberlake is preferred), and can be accompanied by a harmony! Produced by 'Dream Seeker', guaranteed gold medal!"
On his song trading section, it is a platform for composers and entertainment companies to trade. Generally, the titles such as those specified in priority indicate that the producer is tailor-made according to the other party's characteristics, so that the purchase will be lower than the price transaction.
"Hey Justin! Are you doing well recently?" Johnny greeted with a smile. As Super Boy's agent, he was very concerned about the recent recovery of Justin's throat tumor surgery.
"Johnny! I'm almost crazy! I can't sing and talking loudly in the past few months, let alone drinking! Now I've finally passed the recovery period and I'm in vocal training!" Justin complained vently. For him, music is one of the things that must be missing in life.
"That's right, Justin, now I've found an electronic dance song on the forum I often go to, and its author sets you as a priority partner, I think you should be interested..."
"Really? Do you think this matter is credible?" Justin asked in confusion. After all, no one dared to believe it easily by calling out a name to write a song for himself on the Internet.
"God! Although I haven't heard this song, it's definitely worth your view!" Johnny said yearningly, "Its author is a genius! Do you know? Professionals in all fields have been communicating with him as honored. God knows why he wrote you a song! You jealous guy!"
"Okay! Email me his contact information! I will think seriously! Thank you, Johnny!" Justin was moved by hearing Johnny's strong recommendation and a little jealous tone. To be honest, he is now in need of a powerful new song to help him stand on the stage again.
After checking the email Johnny sent him, he sent an email to the other party according to the contact information on the email, saying that he was very interested in the other party's songs and hoped to get a demo.

"Zhuo Xu! The company in the United States sent you an email!"
Lee Min-hyuk ran to the living room excitedly. Kim Joo-woo in the living room was answering the questions the team members encountered when learning Korean. Seeing Lee Min-hyuk excitedly, Kim Joo-woo stood up with a smile and asked, "Is it Justin himself?"
"Yes! Justin Timberlake himself sent an email, he wants to listen to our new song demo!" Lee Min-hyuk said excitedly. It was the first time he had come into contact with such a big star.
"Tsk! I'll demo it up... I still don't believe us..." Jin Zhuoxue muttered unhappily. In his previous life, he was brought to contact with a lot of "bad things" by this romantic brother. Now he has no psychological burden on his money.
"Send him the sample we recorded last time! Remember to cut it out for only 1 minute! Don't post the whole song!" After Jin Zhuoxue said that, he turned around and looked at the team members who were still stunned, "Where did you say just now?"
The people in the room were a little stunned by Kim Joo-wook's words. If this transaction became a team of their own, it would be considered famous. Why could Kim Joo-wook be so leisurely?
"Uh... I talked about a few swear words that might be scolded by others..." The silly Wonter first reflected and honestly answered Jin Zhuoxu's question.
"Oh... You must remember this Korean swear word, so as not to be scolded yet..."
Looking at Kim Joo-wook who was giving a serious lecture, Lee Min-hyuk couldn't help but smile bitterly. This younger brother is really a "freak". He can use everyone to write an electronic dance song that everyone loves. He learned that the top American singers wanted to buy his song but were not excited at all...
"You guy..." Just sighed, Lee Min-hyuk stopped talking, and turned around and went to the workshop to make the demo that Kim Joo-wook asked for.
"socool!" Listening to the sample, Justin couldn't help but sigh. This electronic dance music made him fall in love with it as soon as he heard it. Unfortunately, the other party was too stingy and sent only one minute of samples. The sound of anti-theft marks almost ran through the entire song. In a few seconds, he heard the sound of "Dream Seeker" from the headphones, as disgusting as if the sauce was greedy in delicious red wine.
He took off his headphones and the dynamic melody appeared in his mind again, "You must buy it!" Justin said to himself.

"Hello! I'm k!" Jin Zhuoxu took the long distance from the United States and said with a smile.
"Hello, I'm Justin. Are you the maker of sexyback?" Justin confirmed carefully.
"Yes, this song is the work of our team, and I am the head of the team. Mr. Justin, are you satisfied with that song?"
"Why not? It's like it's tailored for me..."
"It is tailor-made for you!" Jin Zhuo-wook corrected Justin's wrong statement, "Mr. Justin, since you like it so much, do you think the price we offer on the forum is appropriate? Of course, as a named salesperson, we can give you a 10% discount!"
"Hey, k! Although I shouldn't say that, I'm very confused... You can't not understand the market. This song has exceeded your offer too much, let alone you have to discount..." Justin asked in kindness and confusion, "This is definitely not the entire price of this song, right?"
"Haha! To be honest, Mr. Justin, I like to trade with a smart person like you! Yes, our offer is only a part of it, $120,000, and we will transfer the copyright of the song to you, but we need to get a 20% share."
"Are you too confident in your music?" Justin asked with a smile. This profit method reflects the other party's great confidence in the song, so he chose to cooperate by reducing the transfer fee and increasing the share.
"It's not just music! We also have full confidence in you. So, will we make a deal? Mr. Justin?" Jin Zhuoxu asked with a smile.
"Trade!" Justin had a lot of affection for the other party's straightforwardness and agreed happily.
A few days later, Kim Joo-wook received a specific contract and studied the specific terms with Kwon Jae-hee. After confirming that it was correct, Kim Joo-wook happily signed the name and sent the lyrics to Justin's company.
"The day after tomorrow is the day when the bar opens!" During the dinner, Jin Zhuoxu said to everyone who was enjoying dinner, "Everyone clean the bar together tomorrow. Brother Min He will send some opening discounts to s.m, and ask the other side to help promote it. As for other companies, Brother Zai Xi, you can drive Min He to their door and send it!"
Before Kwon Jae-hee could look up and complain, Schneider, who was beside him, said in his big tongue Korean: "I am a lawyer! Not a flyer distributor!" It made everyone laugh.
"Will we not start the afternoon game tomorrow?" Li Meiqi asked curiously.
"If you don't turn on, the taste of coffee is not up to standard!" After saying this, Jin Zhuoxue turned around and left.
"What? Did I say something wrong..." Seeing his question causing Jin Zhuoxu to react so much, Li Meiqi looked at everyone in confusion.
"I don't know either!" Schneider said helplessly: "Not only I made coffee, but the chef and Duane have tried it. Everyone has only one type of coffee that fails..."
"Is it the main American coffee?" Lee Min-hyuk asked subconsciously.
"Yes! This is the simplest and the cheapest price, but no matter how we do it, the boss only takes a sip and asks to do it again..."
"Can I make a cup and I try it?" asked Lee Min Hyuk, "I haven't had coffee in a long time."
Schneider put his carefully ground coffee in front of Lee Min-hyuk. Lee Min-hyuk picked it up and pecked it gently, but involuntarily thought of the kind face in his mind, "This taste is really... much different..." He put down the cup with a wry smile.
"What does it taste like?" Schneider looked at Lee Min-hyuk curiously.
"Haha, it's the uncle's taste..." When he thought of the uncle, the full coffee, and the delicious peanut cookies, Lee Min-hyuk's eyes flashed.
"Uncle?" Schneider looked at Lee Min-hyuk in confusion.
"Zhuo Xu's grandfather used to make coffee, which was always a large cup of coffee, and the price was very cheap. Every time I was tired of work in the afternoon, I wanted to drink one, and every time I finished drinking it, I felt full of energy..." Everyone listened quietly to Lee Min-hyuk in a tone full of memories, and subconsciously looked at the room where Kim Joo-woo was.
"He's not angry that you can't make that kind of taste." Lee Min-hyuk looked at the closed door, "I guess every time he tastes coffee, he will think of his grandfather... That's really an old man who makes people like it..."
In the room, Jin Zhuo-wook sat quietly on the floor, glanced at the photos of the old man hanging on the wall behind him, and let his back feel comfortable on the wall, just like when he was a child, "Hey, Grandpa! The bar is about to open tomorrow, you're happy too! By the way, where did I tell you last time... I remembered it! I told you! In my previous life, I followed Michael to Korea. At that time, I was only 12 years old and saw so many people! I was crying and shouting that I wanted to go on stage..."
