Chapter 2187 The threat of the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism

There was no accident. The next day, or from the day when the MC company family concert was held, the MC family concert is the most eye-catching thing in the Korean music industry and even the entertainment industry. Countless media and news are constantly reporting on the MC family concert.

Especially on the next day, the MC family concert almost dominated the screen, and major Korean media and newspapers reported on this matter. After all, not to mention so many artists from MC, just one Kim Yu-fan is enough to allow all Korean media to report.

What's more, the MC family concert has created a new history, that is, the number of fans coming to the Jamsil Comprehensive Stadium exceeded 120,000, which is definitely the concert with the largest number of fans in the concert in the history of the Korean music scene.

What's more, this is a concert where fans spent money to buy tickets, not a free concert, which is even more difficult. You should know that the largest concert in South Korea in history, that is, PSY was successful in "Gangnam Style" and became popular all over the world, and returned to South Korea to hold a free concert, with 100,000 people coming to the scene. That was the largest concert history in the Korean music industry, and it was free.

Now, MC company family concerts, 120,000 people are the largest concert, not to mention that they are not free. How can a free one be compared to those who have to spend money to buy tickets?

Of course, MC has placed all the revenue from concert tickets in the MC charity fund to help people in need. MC and its artists do not get a penny, which has also been recognized by the Korean people and has also made fans who participated in the MC family concert willing to spend money to buy tickets.

Nowadays, the reputation of MC charity funds has become popular and has been recognized and accepted by the people. I don’t worry that this money will be embezzled or someone will be fed by the private pockets.

Even if MC companies were not going to accept external donations, otherwise, with the fame and influence of MC Charity Fund, many people would definitely choose MC Charity Fund as the first way to donate to do good deeds.

News of the MC family concert began to dominate the screen, but Kim Yu-hwan didn't have the heart to care about these things at this time. Instead, he was locked in the office with Hong Seung-sung, discussing how to deal with Choi Kwang-sik, or how to deal with the possible suppression of the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism against MC companies when some MC's family dominates.

This is not a trivial matter. No matter how awesome the MC company is, it is under the supervision of the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism. It is definitely within the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism. If the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism really wants to deal with MCs and suppress MCs, there are really too many opportunities, too many methods and means.

Now, that is because the MC company itself has done well and basically has no shortcomings or disadvantages, which makes the Cultural, Sports and Tourism Department unable to find opportunities or excuses. More importantly, the MC company has a very good image, a good reputation and a huge influence in the hearts of the Korean people, which makes the Cultural, Sports and Tourism Department dare not act rashly.

However, it is certain that the Department of Culture, Sports and Tourism cannot keep watching MC grow and grow. It is already a problem now. If MC continues to grow and grow, it may be more difficult, more impactful, and more costly to deal with MC companies.

Therefore, if nothing unexpected happens, the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism will soon take measures to deal with and suppress MC companies. Kim Yu-fan and Hong Seung-sung obviously understand this principle, so their expressions at this time will appear a little serious.

"How could this happen? Do you have any hatred with the Minister of Culture, Sports and Tourism? You just got Zheng Dongcai down before. How long has it been since the newly appointed Choi Kwang-sik started to plan to deal with our MC?"

After a long time, Hong Seung-sung sighed and looked at Kim Yu-fan and said helplessly.

In this situation, what else can MC company do? How can it passively defend and then deal with it when it comes to trouble. At least MC company does not have the courage to publicly jump out to attack Cui Guangzhi, which is definitely a quest for death.

"Brother, there is nothing I can do about this. I won't say much about Zheng Dongcai's situation at the beginning. That's some other reasons. But Choi Guangzhi now really has nothing to do with me. It's because our MC has developed too strongly, and all the cultural, sports and tourism departments are planning to suppress us, just like the situation of S?M and SidusHQ in the past, they are too strong, and have reached the level of monopoly. The so-called cultural, sports and tourism departments will take action to suppress it. The purpose is very simple, that is, they cannot make any brokerage company too strong, or in the view of the cultural, sports and tourism departments, any brokerage company too strong is not conducive to the development of the Korean entertainment industry, so they must be suppressed."

"As for doing this, what will happen to this agency that has been suppressed by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism will not care at all. Anyway, the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism only needs to maintain the absolute competitiveness of the entertainment industry."

"Oh~~~ I know." Hong Shengcheng sighed and nodded helplessly, "To be honest, there is no way to do it. This is why our MC company is so unique, taking into account all aspects, and doing it well, which makes the Culture, Sports and Tourism Department unable to suppress our MC company. Otherwise, the Culture, Sports and Tourism Department would probably have taken action long ago."

Kim Yu-fan nodded with a serious face. Now that he thinks about it, Kim Yu-fan feels very glad. Fortunately, he insisted on building an MC company with his so-called ideal, so he has not given any opportunity to take advantage of the Culture, Sports and Tourism Department. Otherwise, the Culture, Sports and Tourism Department would have taken action against the MC company long ago.

Kim Yu-fan is firmly convinced of this. Although the Culture, Sports and Tourism Department is now very close to MC Company, everyone has a good relationship and cooperates with each other to take care of each other, all this is just superficial.

After all, the Culture, Sports and Tourism Department has no chance, or the MC company has done perfectly in all aspects, so that the Culture, Sports and Tourism Department can take advantage of it. Otherwise, the Culture, Sports and Tourism Department has already taken action against the MC, and will still be in a state of hesitation until now.

This is not because Kim Yu-fan has thought too much. In fact, the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism is really like this. In short, there are many examples of the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism. Not only are there many, but on the contrary, there are also many.

From the earliest point of view, it should be Prince Xu and his children. Of course, it could not be called the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism at that time, but the Ministry of Culture. It was just a small department that was split from the communiqué. It was not until 1998 that it became the Ministry of Culture, Tourism, and it was not until 2008 that it merged with the Ministry of Sports and Tourism to become the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism.

The Ministry of Culture at that time was actually a small department, with no rights or deterrence. At that time, the Ministry of Culture at that time was not even as good as the Public Performance Ethics Committee, and it was just a small department that was insignificant and proud.

However, Seo Tae-chi's counterattack caused the Public Ethics Committee to decline and disband. At the same time, the Ministry of Culture began to rise strongly. With the support and help of the government, it completely took charge of the cultural field and criticized and suppressed Seo Tae-chi at that time. Therefore, the media became crazy about Seo Tae-chi. Moreover, it has not stopped for so many years. The original cultural president changed the Korean pop music scene and was definitely called the godfather. It has completely bad reputation. Even the Korean citizens of the previous generation of the Koreans do not know Seo Tae-chi very much at all, and they don't even know Seo Tae-chi's contributions and changes to Korean pop music.

Secondly, after 2000, the hot struggle between S?M and DSP was still so-called Cultural Tourism Department could not sit still. In the view of the Cultural Tourism Department at that time, there was no benefit in the crazy competition and internal struggle of everyone, but it had a huge impact and harm to the development of the entertainment industry.

Therefore, the Ministry of Culture and Tourism requires that the entertainment industry must change the tense atmosphere and environment before 2000. There can be competition among brokerage companies, but it must be a healthy competition. Competition like S?M and DSP, which is a full-scale battle, or even at the cost of making a comeback, is absolutely not allowed.

However, whether it was S?M or DSP at that time, it was Li Xiuman and Li Haoyan at the peak of their careers. In addition, they were too conceited and arrogant and did not obey the orders of the Ministry of Culture and Tourism.

So, the Culture and Tourism Department was furious and began to suppress S?M and DSP. With the official absolute background, connections and relationships, S?M and DSP became tragic in an instant.

Lee Soo-man had to run away to the United States at a critical moment, and then let S?M fall into an infighting. In the end, Kim Young-min took over and almost settled in the position of President S?M. Only after Lee Soo-man received the so-called presidential pardon and returned to South Korea and continued to return to S?M. Unfortunately, at that time, Lee Soo-man was no longer the president of S?M. He continued to fight with Kim Young-min as an artist director. However, because Kim Young-min is the president, many things and places have congenital rights advantages, Lee Soo-man also had no choice but to let S?M continue to consume in this infighting.

The situation of DSP is similar. Compared to Li Xiuman who had to run away to the United States, Li Haoyan did not have much help and could not let Li Haoyan run away. The Ministry of Culture and Tourism was not polite and suppressed DSP in various aspects, which led to the complete decline of DSP. Until now, not only did not have any momentum of rise, but on the contrary, it seemed that it was about to collapse completely.

It is said that when Lee Hyo-ri was very strong and was very likely to become the first female treble crown champion, it was because the Ministry of Culture and Tourism disagreed. After all, once Lee Hyo-ri became the first female treble crown champion in the Korean music industry, coupled with Lee Hyo-ri's previous phenomenon, DSP's influence alone was too great, and it was difficult to continue to deal with DSP.

Therefore, Lee Hyo-ri's Lee Soo-young unexpectedly won the MBC Song Award, which made people feel unexpected and completely shattered Lee Hyo-ri's dream of being the first female triple crown champion.

At the same time, considering that Lee Hyo-ri's phenomenon has had too much influence, the Ministry of Culture and Tourism even suppressed DSP and Lee Hyo-ri, allowing Lee Hyo-ri's second solo album to be released three years after the first album, which is indeed a very long time apart.

The situation of JYP is similar. When DSP declined and S?M company fell into an internal strife, JYP rose strongly at this time, and its momentum was greatly surpassing S?M and DSP and becoming the leader in the Korean music industry.

Especially the success of Rain and WonderGrils also attracted the attention of the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism at that time. Seeing that JYP could not continue to do so, he took action decisively. Then Rain left JYP to set up his own business, and WonderGirls went to the United States. The 2PM captain Park Jae-bang incident caused the incident of JYP's original crazy rise to a halt.

Not only the music industry, but also the film and television industry. To talk about the most powerful film and television agency in the Korean entertainment industry before 2010, there is no doubt that SidusHQ is the one.

Jeon Ji-hyun, Song Hye-kyo, Cha Tae-hyun, Jeon Do-yeon, Kim Hye-soo, Jung Woo-sung, Cho In-sung, Park Shin Min-ah and other top Korean actors at that time were all artists under SidusHQ.

It is no exaggeration to say that the actors under SidusHQ at the time did not dare to say that they occupied half of the Korean film and television industry, but at least one-third was certain.

Therefore, in the eyes of the Ministry of Culture and Tourism, SidusHQ is the only one who is the only one and is not allowed to be suppressed.

So, next, the top big-name artists under SidusHQ all left SidusHQ one after another. In addition to the reason why SidusHQ itself has done a little too much, the Culture and Tourism Department is more threatening SidusHQ artists in all aspects, and encourage SidusHQ artists to leave SidusHQ and switch to other brokerage companies. If they set up their own studios or set up brokerage companies, the Culture and Tourism Department will welcome them and help them with all their strength.

Therefore, Jeon Ji-hyun, Park Shin-yang, Cha Tae-hyun and others left SidusHQ and set up their own business, while many other big-name actors also switched to other agency companies.

If there are people who are careful, they will find that after leaving SidusHQ and switching to other brokerage companies, they do not go to one brokerage company, or they go to a brokerage company, but on the contrary, they all go to different brokerage companies, which are very scattered.

If Sung Yu-ri hadn't been Kim Yu-hwan's appearance, he would have left SidusHQ to KK company, Song Hye-kyo went to Edennine, Shin Min-ah went to StarM company, Kim Seung-woo went to WS company, Han Jae-soo went to YD company, Park Min-young went to KK company, Han Ye-seok went to BA company...

In short, there are few artists under SidusHQ that go to the same agency. Why? This is because the Ministry of Culture and Tourism does not allow it. To put it bluntly, it is to fatten SidusHQ and then slaughter SidusHQ, and send SidusHQ artists to different agencies, so that other small agencies can also have excellent actors and develop at one time.

In short, SidusHQ is like being forced to divide the property by the Ministry of Culture and Tourism, making it cheaper for outsiders.

Not only that, the Ministry of Culture and Tourism also conducted a detailed investigation and understanding of the top big-name actors under SidusHQ, and found enough evidence to let others tell these big-name actors, which led to a complete outbreak of conflicts between the top big-name actors under SidusHQ and SidusHQ, and they chose to leave one after another.

Not to mention anything else, for example, the fact that Jeon Ji-hyun’s phone was eavesdropped was not just the beginning, but that Jeon Ji-hyun started to be eavesdropped by SidusHQ after he became famous with the movie "My Savage Girlfriend". Many years have passed, why didn’t Jeon Ji-hyun know?

After all, ordinary people know very little about eavesdropping, and even if they see any problems, they probably won’t know. Jun Ji-hyun’s acting skills are good, but if he loses, it is obviously impossible to be familiar with eavesdropping.

Therefore, when the police investigated the eavesdropping incident, they found that Jun Ji-hyun had also become a victim, and SidusHQ had eavesdropped on Jun Ji-hyun's mobile phone and told the matter out.

Why is this? Don’t you know that this incident has a great impact? Under normal circumstances, the police will definitely block the news as much as possible, so as not to make a big deal, and then solve and deal with it secretly.

But that time, the matter was announced, and then with Jeon Ji-hyun's popularity and influence, things instantly grew. This led to a complete outbreak of the conflict between Jeon Ji-hyun and SidusHQ, and finally chose to leave SidusHQ and set up a self-employed person.

Behind this incident, it was the secret operation of the Ministry of Culture and Tourism. Otherwise, Jun Ji-hyun would probably never know that his phone was eavesdropped by SidusHQ in his lifetime. This incident also led to artists being afraid that their phones would be eavesdropped by the agency, so they habitually checked three mobile phones, one working mobile phone and the other private mobile phone. Moreover, this mobile phone is also a fool to deceive the agency. In fact, there is a mobile phone hidden in secret, which is the real private mobile phone.

In short, the principle of the Culture, Sports and Tourism Department is very simple, that is, to be able to develop with conscience in the Korean entertainment industry. Once any brokerage company begins to rise strongly and begins to dominate, then decisively suppress it. This brokerage company will never be allowed to soar into the sky and form a monopoly.

And now, it is obviously MC's turn.
