Peninsula: Starting with forming a group with the nation's little sister

Chapter 30 New Endorsement

The lights went out, and Lin Yuan stood in the center of the stage with Li Zhi'en by his hand.

The intro to "I NEED YOU" slowly begins, and warm yellow lights gradually illuminate the two of them.

The music video playing on the big screen featured Lin Yuan and Bae Joo-hyun.

When Lee Ji-eun's voice rang out, cheers erupted from the audience.

[As expected of IU, she's as steady as ever.]

Wow, is the producer really that handsome? He's even better looking than in the music video!

Yes, his voice is very sexy, but why does he have so few lyrics?

The music continued, and the audience cheered not only for IU but also for Lin Yuan's encore.

"Lin!"

"Lin!"

"Lin!"

Bae Joo-hyun clapped along to the rhythm in the backstage corridor, looking at him with a smile.

The song ended quickly, but the applause lasted for a long time.

"Annyeonghaseyo, LuMin~"

After bowing and greeting each other, the two walked off the stage, passing by MCs Bae Joo-hyun and Park Bo-gum who were about to go on stage.

"Great!"

Bae Joo-hyun spoke softly, using only the volume that Lin Yuan could hear.

"Thanks!"

Lee Ji-eun was still wondering who he was talking to when she saw Bae Joo-hyun and immediately understood. She twisted her waist counterclockwise.

"hiss!"

"Lee Ji-eun, you..."

Lin Yuan rubbed his waist and began to complain in a low voice. Li Zhi'en snorted coldly and walked quickly towards the lounge.

Just as the two disappeared at the end of the road, a person emerged from around the corner. "They look like a couple."

Meanwhile, an unexpected person arrived in Seoul and headed straight for Loen Entertainment.

"President, Sony's eldest daughter has arrived and is waiting for you in the conference room."

The secretary said respectfully.

Shin Won-soo looked incredulous. His company had no business with Sony, so what was the eldest princess's purpose in coming here?

Did the other party say what they wanted to do?

The secretary shook her head.

Shin Won-soo thought for a while and decided to meet with them first. If he was lucky, they might even be able to cooperate. Sony has a great reputation.

Inside the conference room, a beautiful woman with a graceful figure sat quietly, looking at the tea in her hand with undisguised disdain in her eyes.

At that moment, Shin Won-soo walked in with a big smile. "Hello, I am the president of Loen. Welcome, Ms. Mieko."

If Lin Yuan were here, he would recognize the person immediately as the beautiful woman who told him to run away early and said she would take care of him, Matsui Mieko.

Mieko rose gracefully, shook hands lightly, and said, "President Shin, it's an honor to meet you. I hope you'll forgive my sudden visit."

As expected of a descendant from a prominent family, he naturally possesses the aura of someone in a superior position.

The two then sat down, and Shin Won-soo asked, "I wonder what brings Miss Mieko here today...?"

"At my father's request, I am in charge of all Sony's affairs in Korea. I am here today to select a spokesperson."

Upon hearing this, Shen Yuanxiu was overjoyed.

Ever since Lin Yuan arrived, he's been on a winning streak. Now even the usually aloof Sony has extended an olive branch. He should treat this kid better from now on.

"It would be an honor. I wonder if Ms. Mieko has someone in mind? If not, our company's IU, APINK, and the newly debuted LuMin are all quite good and should meet Sony's requirements." As he spoke, he had his secretary bring over the materials for Mieko to review.

Shin Won-soo has gone all out for this endorsement. Usually, newcomers don't get these kinds of contracts, but since Lin Yuan is a lucky star, it's only right that he takes care of him.

Mihoko casually flipped through the pages, but when she came across LuMin's information, she glanced at it a few more times, a faint smile appearing on her lips. She thought to herself, "Lin Yuan-san, we're going to meet again."

Ever since Lin Yuan left without saying goodbye, Mei Huizi, who has always been disdainful of men, seems to have gone mad, using all her connections to search for him, just to keep him by her side.

Unfortunately, she was blocked both openly and secretly. All they knew was that she had gone abroad to South Korea, so she applied to be stationed in South Korea, even her father's advice could not stop her.

Until one day, she overheard the company discussing a new song, produced by a man named Lin Yuan.

She immediately returned to her office, turned on her computer and started searching. Finally, she saw the figure she had been longing for in the music video, which led to her actions tonight.

She said casually, "I think LuMin is quite good. The man is handsome and the woman is beautiful, which fits Sony's requirements for the appearance of its artists."

Sure enough.

Shen Yuanxiu had just noticed that she had paused on Lin Yuan's profile for a short while. She had initially thought that the handsome guy had attracted her, but now it seemed that she was actually after Lin Yuan.

He tentatively began, "Ms. Mieko has excellent taste. IU is the company's star artist, and Lin Yuan is also a very talented and handsome guy. How about we sign the contract?"

Mihoko thought for a moment, nodded, and then agreed that Loen would sign the document the next morning, and that Lumin and the other person would need to be present.

Shen Yuanxiu readily agreed and quickly assured him that she would make the arrangements.

"Take care, Miss Mieko!"

After seeing the Sony representatives off, Shin Won-soo returned to his office with light steps and called his secretary, instructing her, "Contact Bae Yong-joon in a bit. Clear his schedule for tomorrow and secure the Sony deal first."

"Inside!"

Shin Won-soo walked to the French windows with an ashtray in hand, looking towards the stage.

In the lounge, Lin Yuan was patiently coaxing Lee Ji-eun, "Ji-eun~ Little Ji-eun~ Good girl?"

"Eek~"

Lee Ji-eun was disgusted by his cheesy voice, and goosebumps rose all over her body. "Shut up, don't call me 'good girl'."

Lin Yuan was overjoyed to finally hear Li Zhi'en's reply and immediately thanked his mother. He hadn't expected that the nickname "good girl" would be so useful.

"Yes, mission accomplished!"

Then he shamelessly clung to her, hugging Lee Ji-eun's arm and rubbing his face against hers, saying, "Then you're not allowed to be angry."

Lee Ji-eun tried to push him away, but failed in the end. She said helplessly, "Hey, stop rubbing against me, you're ruining my makeup."

Lin Yuan ignored her and continued to hold her, closing his eyes to enjoy it. After all, his girlfriend was soft and fragrant, and he was just exercising his rights as a boyfriend.

Knock knock knock!

A series of urgent knocks came at the door, so Lin Yuan had no choice but to let go and sit down properly.

"Please come in."

After receiving permission, Bae Yong-joon walked in and said happily, "Ji-eun, Won, I just received news that Sony has appointed LuMin as their new spokesperson. The contract will be signed tomorrow morning, and the president asked me to inform you that you must be there."

Lee Ji-eun was also shocked when she heard this. Her endorsements were neither numerous nor few, but they were mainly in the three categories of clothing, food, and cosmetics.

The automotive and digital fields have always been her weak points, but now relevant resources are being delivered directly to her doorstep.

She glanced at the nonchalant Lin Yuan beside her, and then, remembering his identity, she felt relieved.

Lin Yuan, however, was not interested. He walked to the door, opened it a crack, and started smoking by himself.

"Got it, Yongjun-ge, what's our schedule for tomorrow?"

Lee Ji-eun asked.

"We'll postpone everything by a day. We won't wait for the stage performance anymore. The company has already spoken with the TV station, and they're letting you go home and rest early."
