Peninsula: It’s just a dream, are you serious?

Chapter 147 Lin Yoona: Why is it Chen Yan again?
After saying goodbye to Krystal Jung, Chen Yan drove straight home.

First, I made myself a simple dinner, which solved the dinner problem.

He then walked to the sofa in the living room, sat down, and took out his phone to make a call.

A few seconds later, the call connected, and a strong, middle-aged man's voice rang out:
"Hey."

"Hey Dad, do you know any lawyers around here on the peninsula?"

"What's wrong? What happened?"

The middle-aged man, Chen's father, immediately sounded more worried.

Chen Yan quickly explained, "It's nothing. I just wrote a song and want to sell it to a big company. I was thinking of finding a local lawyer to help me review the contract."

He remembered that his parents had mentioned having some connections in the peninsula, so he called to inquire.

If so, then it's a good opportunity to make good use of the connections left by your parents.

Now that I've graduated, connections are very important. Since my family has connections, I should naturally learn about them first and use them when the time comes.

"Okay, I'll send you my contact information in a bit."

Chen Yan was delighted upon hearing this: "Okay."

"Okay, call me if anything happens. Also, remember to call your mom a few more times when you have free time."

"okay, I get it."

Communication between fathers and sons is usually very direct, and this was also the case between Chen Yan and his father. After finishing their business, they chatted for a few more minutes and then hung up the phone decisively.

A few minutes later, Chen's father sent a WeChat message.

[This is the lawyer's contact information. I've already spoken to him. You can contact him directly later. You can contact him for any legal issues in the future; he's trustworthy.]

Chen Yan replied to the message, saved the lawyer's contact information in his phone, and then dialed the number.

"Hello, is this Attorney Jiang? This is Chen Yan."

"It's me, hello Chen Yanxi. Your father has already told me about your situation. It's about the song licensing contract with SM Entertainment, right?"

"Yes, because it's my first time, I want to see a professional lawyer."

After another discussion, Chen Yan and the other party agreed to go to SM Entertainment together the next day to review the contract.

If the contract is confirmed to be in good condition, then it can be signed on the spot.

The next morning, Chen Yan drove to JYP Company.

I swiped my work badge on the card reader, and the card reader opened the gate immediately.

After taking the elevator to the floor reserved for composers, Chen Yan did not go to his own workstation, but went straight to the office of Director Jin, who had helped him with his onboarding yesterday.

It's a bit embarrassing, but today is his first day officially working at JYP, and he has to take the afternoon off.

He had arranged to discuss the contract with SM Entertainment at 2 PM that afternoon.

Well, the reason I took leave was because a rival company had their eye on the song I wrote, which made things even more awkward.

When Chen Yan arrived at Chief Jin's office, he explained his purpose.

The department head showed no dissatisfaction whatsoever; on the contrary, he approved the leave with a smile.

The fact that Chen Yan's song was picked up by SM Entertainment only proves that this young man is talented.

Who wouldn't like young talent?

Chen Yan thanked him and left Director Jin's office. He stayed at his workstation until lunch break before getting up and leaving the company.

He drove to the vicinity of SM Entertainment, first found a restaurant for lunch, and then went to the shop where he had bought coffee for Krystal Jung the day before.

He had arranged to meet with lawyer Jiang at this coffee shop last night.

Around 1:30 p.m., lawyer Jiang, dressed in a professional suit, appeared in front of Chen Yan.

Attorney Jiang's full name is Jiang Chengyu. He is a middle-aged man in his early forties with a constant smile on his face.

Chen Yan greeted politely, "Hello, Attorney Jiang."

Jiang Chengyu waved his hand: "No need to be so polite. Your father and I have been old friends for many years. In fact, you are my nephew."

Chen Yan understood, and the next second he changed his form of address: "Then I'll have to trouble Uncle Jiang this time." Hearing this, Jiang Chengyu's smile deepened: "No trouble at all, it's nothing."

Afterwards, the two chatted for a while, and Jiang Chengyu began to address Chen Yan more affectionately as "Xiao Yan".

It wasn't until almost the agreed time that the two got up and left the coffee shop together.

When they arrived at the entrance of SM Entertainment, the woman Chen Yan had met yesterday was already waiting there.

Chen Yan introduced himself, saying, "This is my father's lawyer friend. He's here today to help me review the contract."

The woman understood, exchanged greetings with Jiang Chengyu, and then led the two inside.

It's the same meeting room as yesterday.

Chen Yan and Jiang Chengyu had only been sitting down for a few minutes when Director Lin, whom they had met yesterday, walked in.

He greeted Chen Yan, then looked at Jiang Chengyu.

Jiang Chengyu then took out a business card from the inside pocket of his suit and handed it to him.

Director Lin smiled as he accepted the business card, but his pupils contracted when he saw the words in the upper left corner.

Peninsula Sejong Law Firm.

He solemnly put away his business card, then smiled and shook hands with Jiang Chengyu: "Hello, Attorney Jiang."

Sejong Law Firm is one of the three most famous law firms in the peninsula.

These few words alone are enough to make most people in this country take them seriously.

As Director Lin shook hands with Chen Yan, he also secretly glanced at him. It seemed that this young man had quite a background.

After the two groups greeted each other, they sat down on either side of the conference room. This time, Director Lin didn't say anything more, since he had already said everything that needed to be said yesterday.

He's just glad the company didn't mess things up in the contract, otherwise there would have been a lot of trouble.

About ten minutes later, Jiang Chengyu finished reading the contract and nodded to Chen Yan with a smile.

Chen Yan was completely relieved and signed the contract, choosing the option of 2500 million Korean won plus copyright revenue sharing.

"It's a pleasure working with you, Chen Yan."

"Pleasant to work with."

After the contract was signed, the two groups of people left the conference room.

Chen Yan and Jiang Chengyu took the elevator back to the first floor and parted ways at the company's main entrance.

"Then I'll be going now, Xiaoyan. You can contact me if you encounter any problems in the future."

"Thank you, Uncle Jiang. Take care."

Watching Jiang Chengyu get into the car and leave, Chen Yan breathed a sigh of relief, then looked at the contract in his hand and smiled slightly.

The future is promising.

Well, I'd better not tell Kim Tae-yeon's older sister yet, and give her a surprise later.

As the lyricist and composer of the song "I Got a Boy," Chen Yan naturally participated in the recording of the song.

I wonder how that woman will react when she sees me at SM Entertainment.

A few hours later, night fell, and it was still SM Entertainment, in a large conference room.

The nine members of Girls' Generation and the heads of various departments of the company gathered together, and the staff were distributing a series of concepts and plans for Girls' Generation's next comeback to everyone.

One of the pages contained information about the comeback title track, "I Got a Boy."

When they saw "Chen Yan" listed as the lyricist, composer, and arranger, all nine of them were taken aback.

Two people showed the most obvious changes in their expressions.

Kim Tae-yeon's eyes widened slightly as she looked at Chen Yan's name.

I never thought that Xiao Yan would actually write this song in this lifetime.

Across from her, Lin Yoona stared at Chen Yan's name, her eyes widening slightly, but in her heart she was thinking:
It's Chen Yan again? Can't avoid it anymore?
