Chapter Eighteen: JYP

normal to ask for your opinion!"And even if I had a good impression of you, I wouldn't date you."Choi Se-ri furrowed her brows and looked at Ji Kyeong-won, saying very seriously, "From my debut to now...Is it done

Ji Jingyuan looked at Park Jae-hyun beside him and asked a question.

"

All applications have been submitted.

"

Park Jae-hyun nodded in response.

This was something that Ji Jingyuan had asked Park Jae-hyun to help him with during the Lunar New Year. Ji Jingyuan compiled all the songs he had heard in his dreams and removed the ones that were already released and copyrighted, then gave them to Park Jae-hyun to register the copyrights.

"Well..."

Ji Jingyuan nodded, glanced back, and the ** staff had already arrived. After greeting each other, they got into the same car and drove towards JYP.

This time, the meeting was attended by the head of ** Entertainment's planning department and staff from related departments. Pool Kyung-won positioned himself as a listener.

He only had his own opinions on song selection, and he showed no interest in discussing the specifics of how they would collaborate or how the profits would be split.

The ** company building is located on Xuanling Road in Jiangnan District, while the JYP building is at number 123 in Cheongdam-dong. In fact, they are quite close together, and it wouldn't take long to walk there. It just involves walking down a few streets and taking a couple of turns.

Although it is a business meeting to discuss cooperation, walking there does feel a bit beneath ** Company's standards.

In just a few minutes, they arrived at their destination. This was Chi Jingyuan's first time here. The JYP Building consisted of two towers connected together, giving off an old-fashioned vibe overall. At first glance, the most eye-catching thing was a series of huge star posters on the left side of the building.

Besides a few posters of JYP Entertainment groups, the most eye-catching thing is Park Jinyoung's own poster. In the picture, he squints and makes faces as if trying to convey his handsomeness, but the image completely fails to deliver that feeling.

Besides him, there are pictorials of 2PM, WG, Miss A, and 2AM, which are the pillars of several companies.

The car didn't stop, it drove straight into the parking lot on the first floor of JYP Building. JYP’s assigned staff were already waiting there.

After getting off the car, Jiyeong realized that waiting for them wasn't just ordinary JYP employees, but also CEO Park Jin-young himself.

JYP is also a large company, and the other party is still the president, his status is obviously much higher than theirs. Everyone from ** was taken aback and quickly greeted him.

A president was waiting for someone in the parking lot, already exceeding the bounds of enthusiasm.

"Hee hee..."

Park Jin-young smiled faintly at **'s support, nodding and waving his hand. "You guys go to the conference room and prepare first. I'll take Jingyuan to tour our company."

"Hmm."

The ** members looked at each other for a few moments, unsure of what to say.

"Yes, president," JYP's people didn't hesitate at all, immediately nodded in agreement and led the way towards the elevator.

**'s staff member winked at Ji Jingyuan and hurried after him. Park Bo-gum considered for a second before following behind as well. Soon, only Ji Jingyuan and Park Jin-young were left in the parking lot.

"First time here at our JYP"

Park Jin-young showed a kind smile, patted Ji-seong's back, then placed his hand on his back and pushed him forward as they walked. He said,

Park Bo-young speaks without any airs and her tone is quite casual, just like she's chatting with a close friend.

But in fact, Chi Jingyuan had only met him once before and chatted with him a few words. They were far from familiar.

But since the other party was being so kind as the president, giving him face, Ji Jingyuan also felt more at ease and went with the flow: "Well, before I didn't know that JYP was this close to **."

"Haha... I heard you guys are coming back, how's the preparation going"

"There are still many things that need to be prepared, and the practice is pretty hard." Li Jingyuan told the truth.

"Is there a lead single that you also wrote, Jingyuan"

"

This song was assigned to me by Teacher Li Xiuman. He was quite satisfied with the finished product and decided to make it the title track.

"

I've heard about your creative talent, I'll definitely have to listen carefully then, Fighting! I really think highly of you EXO, especially with you in it.

"Kongsanda."

Park Jin-young didn't take Ji Kyung-won directly upstairs, but instead led him to the building on the right. As they walked, he explained:

"Our JYP Building is made up of two buildings on the left and right, connected together. The left building is used by our debuted artists and company management staff, while the right building is for trainees. Most of the company's trainee practice and classes are held in the right building."

He led Ji Jingyuan into the white building on the right. The front desk staff saw Park Jin-young and immediately stood up to greet him. Park Jin-young waved casually without saying much, then took Ji Jingyuan to the elevator.

The first impression this practice building gave Ji Jingyuan wasn't good. Although the decoration seemed to have been done with effort, there was a clear sense of dilapidation that couldn't be dispelled. The color of the wooden floor had darkened over the years of use, and there were some cracks in the corners of the walls. It looked like it had been used for many years.

Although **'s Cheongdam-dong building, Poolview, wasn't particularly impressive at first glance, comparing it to JYP's neighboring building immediately highlighted its own advantages.

Just like ** company, JYP company's walls are also plastered with framed photos of the company's artists, and this hasn't stopped along the way.

Pool-ching Yuan noticed that the person in the photo with the most people was Park Jin-young himself.

Park Jin-young took Park Ji-won on a casual walk up two floors, introducing him to some of JYP's company culture at the same time.

On the way, they also encountered a group of trainees. There were five of them, all girls. They saw Park Jin-young and his companion, and their eyes widened in surprise. They hurriedly bowed 90 degrees, repeatedly bowing as if to show utmost respect. Each one seemed very formal and obviously surprised to see the company president and his guest at that moment.

As for trainees, even a manager is already someone they fear. They normally wouldn't even get to see high-level executives like the president in their daily lives.

However, Park Jin-young might be an exception. Judging by the looks of these trainees, he probably likes to drop by here every now and then, unlike **'s Kim Youngmin who completely disregards interacting with trainees.

As they curtsied, they also glanced at Ji-yeong from the corner of their eyes. Some recognized him, others didn't, their expressions varied.

Park Jin-young smiled faintly at the trainees and nodded slightly. He didn't say much, just waved them away and continued to visit with Park Kyung-won.

As the two walked forward, Chi Jingyuan distinctly felt several pairs of eyes following their backs all the way until they turned a corner and disappeared.
