The number one playboy on the Peninsula!
Chapter 211 Decision 2, let Taylor take charge of the production!
Chapter 211: Decision 2: Let Taylor produce it!
The next day, Gong Cheng came to the company and was very busy.
He has a busy schedule today. In addition to meeting Rabbit's father in the composition room, he also has to meet Zhao Meiyan in the afternoon.
In Twice's practice room, Ming Jingnan squatted in the corner waiting for a long time, but the punctual and persistent figure in the past still did not show up.
Minatozaki Sana stared at her friend's dazed pale face, her heart tightening without a word.
Nowadays, Ming Jingnan often holds the game console in his hand during breaks, and places it across his knees like a decoration.
Sana Minatozaki suddenly remembered something very important. If she remembered correctly, the game console in Mina-chan's hand was a birthday gift from her boyfriend, right?
Look at the swan necklace on Mina-chan's neck...
Mingjing Nan's eyes flickered slightly, then he lowered his head and continued to control the game character, as if he was unaware that he was being locked in by a pair of menacing eyes.
Kim Dahyun held her phone, lowered her brows and glanced at Mina unnie in the corner, then glanced at Chaeyoung who was lying on the sofa beside her with a smile, and then her eyes turned to Sana unnie who had an expressionless face...
This job is not easy!
Zhou Ziyu pursed her lips and browsed today's hot searches, but her mind couldn't calm down.
His short, wide face, which had become much paler, and his fan-shaped eyelids veiledly glanced at Minatozaki Sana beside him...
……
On September 14th, Gong Cheng rarely went to Twice's practice room for several days.
After all, there are nine people in Twice now, three of them are the real female relatives and one is the backup female relative, so it is easy to be exposed.
Gong Cheng is still very cautious about this matter. In addition to the rabbit mother, the little tiger, the puppy, and the little penguin, there are nine people in Twice, not to mention our little monster Daxian and his confidant!
And there is my good sister Chou Tzuyu and my beloved disciple Momo Hirai. How can I affect the glorious and majestic image in their hearts?
Moreover, the plan to stay away from Mingjing Nan has worked. Gong Cheng can feel that Cou Xiaogou is very satisfied with his behavior recently. On the contrary, it is the little penguin who chats with him on Kakao from time to time.
After sorting out this intricate web of relationships that was as complex as a spider web, he found that the situation was much better than he had expected.
At least the pabo of Rabbit Girl and Zhao Meiyan hasn't exploded yet!
On the contrary, there were some signs with the puppy and the little penguin, but the little penguin didn't know about it, and she didn't reveal the matter of her relationship with the rabbit girl and the little tiger.
Gong Cheng got into the car refreshed and ready to go out on a date with Chaeyoung. He wanted to be invisible with the little tiger.
After picking up the little tiger, the two of them barely chatted for a few words.
Gong Cheng answered the phone. The familiar yet unfamiliar female voice made him smile bitterly, "Okay, then call me before you take off and I'll pick you up."
"Who's that, Oppa?" Seeing Gong Cheng hang up the phone, Sun Caiying could clearly hear the voice on speakerphone. It was an American woman, speaking English. She didn't really doubt it, but if Oppa really had something going on with the woman on the phone, why would he let her hear it?
"Want to know?" Gong Cheng chuckled and glanced at the tiger girl, she looked so fierce and cute!
"If I do, tell me now, oppa~" Son Chaeyoung grinned and acted coquettishly in a baby voice.
"Taylor Swift." Gong Cheng laughed and concentrated on driving, completely ignoring the exclamations and endless gossip of the little tiger beside him.
Taylor, during Coachella last month, the two met several times in Los Angeles alone. At first, they were just friends, but later she was completely focused on the idea of collaborating, but he never got around to responding.
It just so happened that when he returned to Seoul, the little penguin incident happened. He was busy arranging the Shiba Inu girl to work, and didn't think much about this matter. After all, collaborating on a song or something was just a verbal agreement, and he didn't explicitly agree.
Who would have thought that Taylor would call directly and tell them that he had booked a flight to Seoul for the day after tomorrow, and it was a private trip. Apart from his agent and bodyguards, there would be no additional staff.
What he meant was that he simply wanted to come to Seoul to finalize the cooperation.
Gong Cheng didn't know what to say about this. After meeting several times in Los Angeles, he could feel that this sister was not in a good state. He also knew some of her experiences and situations in the past two years. After all, some things were causing a sensation around the world.
"Oh my god, Oppa~ Why did she come to see you?" Son Chaeyoung excitedly took off her shoes and sat cross-legged in the passenger seat, but she still kept her seatbelt on. "Some foreign media outlets photographed you and Taylor having dinner together before, but I didn't expect you two were so close."
Taylor Swift, who became famous at a young age and holds a Grammy Award, has a great influence worldwide. This is an indisputable fact. No wonder Son Chaeyoung is so excited.
"It's okay, my friend." Gong Cheng smiled and rubbed her head. "It's nothing more than a matter of cooperation. It hasn't been finalized yet. She will come to Seoul the day after tomorrow, and we need to talk more."
"Great, oppa~" Son Chaeyoung rubbed her head in her hands, enjoying it very much and proudly raised her fist.
"Oh my god, why are you mentioning others?" Gong Cheng smiled helplessly. "Don't you like painting? I've made an appointment with the painter Lee K. He just returned to China and is preparing for an exhibition. I'll take you to see it."
"Then it's a deal, you can't move around this time. Last time I wanted to draw Oppa's portrait, and you kept moving around and couldn't stay still..." Son Chaeyoung pouted in dissatisfaction and wanted to make an appointment in advance.
"Yes, I will cooperate with painter Caiying to complete the task today!" Gong Chengxin promised solemnly.
"But I feel a little embarrassed with painter Lee.K here, Oppa." Sun Caiying suddenly picked up the coffee and took a sip, her face looking a little embarrassed and awkward, and her two little canine teeth smiled stiffly.
"The painter's portrait of Oppa is now on display in the Louvre. Am I being too much of an expert?"
Ever since she started dating Gong Cheng, she would ask Chou Tzuyu for some Chinese lessons whenever she had time. She even learned a few idioms, but the one she learned the most and liked the most was "I love you~"
"What are you talking about? What if a painter's paintings are displayed in the Louvre? It's very nice, but your paintings are displayed on the headboard of my bed in my bedroom." Gong Cheng was steering the wheel, with an unconcealable smile on his face.
……
Painter Lee.k’s personal studio is located at 21 Magae-daero, Dobong-gu, Seoul.
The elegant courtyard is similar to an independent villa in the suburbs. It does not cover a large area. There is a three-story building in the yard covered with flowers and plants. Gong Cheng parked the car in the garage with familiarity.
He has been here several times. Artists always have some quirks. The painter's studio is not open to the public. Except for his friends, almost no one comes to disturb his creation on weekdays.
In the past, Gong Cheng liked to sit under the ginkgo tree in the yard, reclining in a chair with headphones on, listening to music. Meanwhile, the painter sat on a small stool, half his body hidden behind his drawing board, depicting his empty expression.
After the painting was finished, the painter and Gong Cheng would have a drink or two in the courtyard. He didn't talk about music, and the painter didn't talk about art, but instead talked about miscellaneous trivial matters.
"Tarot." Lee.k walked out of the studio, a man in his thirties wearing flat-frame glasses.
He naturally recognized the short-haired girl holding Gong Cheng's hand as one of the current national girl group members, Son Chaeyoung. It was she who accompanied Gong Cheng last time.
He had a general understanding of the relationship between the two, but never asked more questions.
"Muse" after all! She's a human being too! She needs to date and have relationships too. Besides, he doesn't pay attention to those entertainment gossips at all. In his opinion, it's normal for a young and beautiful boy and girl to get together!
"Painter, how many days have you been back from Germany?" Gong Cheng sat in the rocking chair under the ginkgo tree and took a sip of the new tea that the painter had added.
Artists are eclectic, Gong Cheng is one, and so is Lee.k, so there is no honorific title between the two. The rule here on the peninsula is that one calls his profession directly and the other calls his stage name directly, which is less complicated.
"I just got back yesterday. I'm holding an art exhibition next month," Lee K said with a smile. Seeing Son Chaeyoung skillfully carrying her drawing board and painting tools and sitting under a nearby ginkgo tree, he stood up and said, "I won't bother you anymore. Why don't you stay for dinner tonight?"
"Okay." Gong Cheng nodded. Apart from his life in the spotlight, his private lifestyle is quite diverse. He goes horse racing and surfing with his members, and he can also drink two cups of fragrant tea with the painter.
"Oppa! You don't have to stand up, just sit on the chair!" Son Chaeyoung popped her head out from behind the drawing board with experience and said in a sweet voice, "You're just standing there all the time, why not sit down and rest?"
"Ani, it's not that I'm wandering around, the main thing is that I have to stand for a long time, just like being punished at school." Gong Cheng scratched his head and retorted. The last time he came, he stood in the studio for more than an hour and still hadn't finished painting the little tiger.
I ran away because I couldn't bear it anymore.
"Okay, just sit there quietly, Oppa... Oh, no need to smile so happily." Son Chaeyoung picked up the paintbrush and sat on a small stool. She looked intently at Gong Cheng who was sitting under the ginkgo tree behind the drawing board. When she saw his bright smile, she couldn't help but laugh along with him.
A few simple strokes of black paint outlined the fragmented black hair on the white paper...
The painter bit a cigarette and leaned against the threshold of the studio, staring at two people standing under two ginkgo trees not far away, a "little painter" and a world superstar.
He took a long puff of smoke, stomped out the cigarette butt, took out his drawing board and some painting tools from the studio, and stopped painting next to the rockery in the center of the campus.
The location he chose had a wide view. He twisted the ink and paint palette twice, then picked up the brush in his hand and depicted the scenery in his sight into the painting.
In autumn in Seoul, the branches of the ginkgo trees are withered and yellow.
The painter captured the fluttering posture of fallen leaves in the autumn wind on the canvas, and under the orange-yellow ginkgo leaves, Gong Cheng sat on a recliner, his handsome cheeks smiling lazily and casually, his grinning eyes gazing at the girl with bared fangs not far away.
The drawing board blocked most of the girl's smile, but her straightened shoulders and the brush in her hand...
Lee.k looked at the painting in front of him with satisfaction, thinking about giving it to the superstar and his little daughter?
……
September 16th, 11pm.
In front of the terminal of Incheon International Airport, Gong Cheng sat in the driver's seat of the car, exchanging messages with his female relatives while glancing at the crowd coming out of the terminal.
Seoul is a popular place for star-chasing. Today, three or five K-pop groups, including BLACKPINK and VIXX, left the airport. Some were big names, some were lesser-known.
The size of the fans picking up the group at the airport alone can tell how popular a group is at the moment. Fortunately, at this moment, there should be no group landing at Incheon International Airport tonight, at least it does not appear on their schedule.
So there are fewer fans at Incheon International Airport at night, and most of them are just passers-by coming and going in a hurry.
"Dingling bell~"
Gong Cheng glanced at the number on his phone that he had contacted frequently in the past two days, picked up the call, and looked at the tall woman walking out of the terminal.
She had a head full of blonde hair with curly bangs, and the blonde hair that covered half of her cheeks was casually draped over her shoulders. Her pair of strong red lips were particularly eye-catching under the lights in the hall. Beside her were two burly middle-aged men, who looked like bodyguards.
Perhaps there were not many people at Incheon International Airport at the moment, and no one noticed that this superstar, who is currently at the center of the storm, had come to Seoul.
In fact, in Gong Cheng's eyes, American women are no different, with big wavy blonde hair and plump lips that are redder than flames.
He hit the hazard lights, and Taylor, who was tall in the crowd, took off his sunglasses and glanced at his car, then walked over quickly with two bodyguards.
But after only two steps, a passing tourist stopped and exclaimed in disbelief, "Taylor?"
The exclamation attracted the attention of several tourists nearby. After confirming, they quickly took out their mobile phones and took pictures while exclaiming. The Peninsula accent in English has gradually become stronger in Incheon International Airport.
After Taylor quickly opened the car and sat in the passenger seat, Gong Cheng opened the window and said to the two bodyguards standing outside dragging their luggage, "Go to the car in the back."
"Go to the car behind."
The nanny car parked behind the Land Rover honked twice, as if urging the two foreigners.
"Tarot?"
“Tarot is here too!!!”
"Ahhhhh!!!"
With his arms raised in the air, the camera captured Gong Cheng, who had disappeared from the public eye for a long time, appearing in the car, with Taylor sitting next to him. For a moment, the noise in the airport became louder.
Taylor's two bodyguards did not dare to delay and quickly dragged their luggage to the nanny car behind them and got in.
As for the nanny car, it was arranged by Gong Cheng. Before Taylor took off, he discussed with him the number of people coming together. Gong Cheng simply called Jin Dayu over. There was no reason to let a man sit in his car.
But looking at the situation at the airport, Gong Cheng's Land Rover and license plate were completely exposed to the public.
Fortunately, the endorsement deal for Aston Martin is almost done, and he will have to go to the UK in a few days.
Gong Cheng stepped on the accelerator and the car quickly drove away from the airport. He bet that within an hour, the news that Taylor showed up in Seoul and got into his car would spread from Seoul to other countries around the world. Of course, it would definitely be another bullshit scandal.
"Long time no see, Tarot." Taylor said with some resentment and helplessness.
Ever since Gong Cheng left Los Angeles, she had been waiting for a call from Gong Cheng but she couldn't get one. Seeing that the release of the new album could not be delayed any longer, she had no choice but to call Gong Cheng and hurriedly flew from the United States to Seoul.
"Sorry, I had some work to deal with after returning from Los Angeles, so the cooperation was delayed." Gong Cheng smiled awkwardly and said truthfully, "I have booked a restaurant. Let's go eat first."
"Okay, let's eat and talk." Taylor looked curiously at the night view of Seoul outside the window.
……
At the same time, a video of Taylor appearing at Seoul's Incheon International Airport was leaked online.
Taylor Swift appeared in Seoul! Tarot personally met her at the airport!
[Tarot and Taylor's relationship revealed! Taylor is rumored to be settling in Seoul and starting a passionate relationship with Gong Cheng!]
Taylor Swift quits European and American music scene, suspected of being pregnant with Tarot's child, and comes to Seoul to nurture and give birth!
Taror's new car and license plate
On September 16th, at 11:34 PM Seoul time, internationally renowned singer Taylor Swift arrived in Seoul, greeted by rising star Tarot. Taylor, who had been largely absent from public appearances since last year's snake-brushing incident, made her first public appearance at this year's Billboard Music Awards in Las Vegas.
[Attached photo (Photo content: Gong Cheng and Taylor chatting and laughing)]
Taylor's second appearance was at the Coachella Music Festival at the end of last month. According to organizers, Taylor had initially declined the invitation, but finally agreed to attend Coachella after hearing that Tarot was going.
[Later in Los Angeles, Taylor and Gong Cheng went to a club late at night, and the two of them were frequently searched in the American media]
[Attached photo (image content: Gong Cheng and Taylor drinking)]
Taylor made her third public appearance today, heading to Seoul! Based on all the revelations and analysis above, I have reason to suspect that Taylor and Gong Cheng may have planted the seeds of their romance at the Billboard Music Awards in Las Vegas.
[Their love blossomed during Coachella and Los Angeles. Taylor became pregnant with Gong Cheng's child. The two decided that Taylor would temporarily withdraw from the European and American music scene and go to her husband's home to take care of the pregnancy and give birth.]
Are you optimistic about this seven-year-old couple's romance? Follow us to stay informed, and let our top entertainment reporters show you the latest news online.
"Oh my goodness! The editor's analysis is amazing! The timing is absolutely right!"
"Are you crazy?! I won't allow Oppa to find an American girl! Damn, why?! Is she really pregnant?"
"Can you please get out of here, stupid media? Maybe they're collaborating? Damn it, if I remember correctly, wasn't it you, the stupid idiot, who spread the rumor that my oppa was abusing Aunt Daegu last time? And you even mentioned something about abortion?"
"..."
"..." Arriving at the western restaurant that had been booked in advance, Gong Cheng could not help but be speechless. The media's analysis was so detailed that if he was not the person involved, he would probably have believed it.
He glanced oddly at Taylor, who was ordering, and her belly.
Oh my god, I didn’t do that, man!
"Have a drink?" Taylor put down the menu and ordered a bottle of foreign wine after seeing Gong Cheng nod.
The waiter, clutching the menu, stared at the two people in the private room, unable to move. Ah Xi! Taylor Swift? Tarot!
Even though their restaurant had its own rules and had seen many big-name artists, the people in front of them were Gong Cheng and Taylor! Even if the boss knew that they had lost their manners and got fired, so what?
I have worked diligently all my life, how could I meet these two superstars at the same time?
Taylor felt a little embarrassed by the waiter's gaze, but she knew nothing about the language of the Peninsula.
Gong Cheng stood up and smiled helplessly. There was no way he could hide the fact that a person like Taylor had come to Seoul. He walked over to the waiter and asked, "Want to take a photo?"
The waiter held the menu and ordered quickly. Gong Cheng pulled Taylor over, and the two stood on either side of the waiter and took a photo together.
Before he finished speaking, Gong Cheng chuckled and said, "How about this, you alone will deliver the food and drinks to our private room?"
"Yes!" The waiter nodded hopefully. It was understandable that he disturbed others, but he couldn't let others disturb Oppa and Taylor again!
……
"Tarot, I formally invite you to be my producer." After drinking a glass of whiskey, Taylor looked at Gong Cheng sitting opposite her seriously. She wanted to release a new album at the end of the year and return to the world music scene again.
She started preparing for this at the beginning of the year, but the reason she hasn't started planning a new album yet is because of some events last year, which made her expectations for this album much higher than all her previous albums, even those that won Grammy Awards!
She was framed for the "snake brushing incident," and throughout the entire year of last year, a series of green snake emojis appeared in the comment sections of almost all social platforms and music software, causing her pain.
When Gong Cheng first broke into the European and American music scene with her first full-length album at the beginning of the year, her two chart-topping singles set her sights on the boy sitting across from her. They met briefly in Las Vegas, but didn't talk much.
It wasn't until last month's Coachella that Gong Cheng's two new singles and the third album he created for the group completely strengthened Taylor's determination to work with him.
Nowadays, the most popular producer and singer in the world is only this one.
"Guess when I started paying attention to you?" Seeing that he didn't say anything, Taylor took a sip of wine and chuckled.
"Last year?" Gong Cheng thought for a moment with a nostalgic look on his face, then smiled and said, "During the 'Fake Love' period?"
He remembered this incident. When he just debuted, "YDP" was criticized and his album was burned. Later, he formed Bombardment Meteor and wrote "Fake Love", which was a hit song in Asia.
The reason why it was able to rise to the top ten on the B charts was not only because of the quality of the song, but also because Taylor retweeted the song on her personal social media platform during that period. Now thinking about it carefully, that was the time when she was experiencing the worst period of the "snake brushing incident" and was blackmailed by the entire network.
That was also his worst period.
"Yes, that song made me understand you. Later, I looked up all your past history and watched the video called 'You'll Understand Tarot After Watching This.'" Taylor laughed. "At that time, I was in my house in Los Angeles, listening to your songs. It was a very strange feeling."
"We've been through very similar experiences, and this year you've had two, no, three now with 'Natural,' and the unreleased single 'Peaches,' which is also a No. 1 single."
"You are much crazier than I was back then..."
As she spoke, she couldn't help but praise. You know, she debuted in 06 and has only had 4 number one singles so far.
Gong Cheng took a sip of wine and thought of some of the public opinions about the current world music superstars. Taylor in front of him and another superstar who also became famous at a young age and became famous all over the world, Justin Bieber, both of them were caught up in some troubles in the past two years.
As for the snake brushing incident, he had some knowledge of it, mainly about Taylor and Kanye West.
The two had been at odds since 2009, with one sabotaging Taylor in public and embarrassing him. However, six years later, in 2015, their relationship gradually eased and they put aside their past grudges.
But in a song called "Famous" released by Kanye West last year, he wrote some lyrics about Taylor's controversy: "I feel like Taylor still owes me a fuck, I made her famous~"
And used a nude wax figure that looked very similar to Taylor in the MV...
After the song and MV were released, the whole world was in an uproar. Gong Cheng remembered that this incident caused a big uproar last year.
The public at large questioned Kanye West why he did this, and the response was, "I asked Taylor's permission."
Taylor said, "When the hell did I agree to this?" and issued a statement. However, just when public opinion was about to change, Kardashian accepted an interview with GQ and said that there was a recording of the conversation between Kanye West and Taylor.
Taylor later reiterated that she had indeed spoken to Kanye West on the phone, but Kanye West had never said he would use the word "bitch" to represent her, nor had he listened to the song in its entirety.
She also said that during the call she refused Kanye West's request to include her in the lyrics and also made some suggestions.
A few days later, Kardashian released 20 edited audio recordings to the media, all of which were favorable to Kanye West, and the tide of public opinion turned again. Taylor issued another statement that day, but most netizens chose to believe Kardashian.
What followed was an overwhelming amount of online violence and spam, as well as graffiti on the streets. Some people even held a memorial service for her.
"Do you know what I posted on Twitter before I boarded the plane?" Taylor laughed at himself, with a ruthless look in his eyes.
"What?" Gong Cheng really didn't notice. He didn't pay much attention to European and American singers because there were too many crappy things about them.
"It's that green snake emoticon they were posting." Taylor curled her lips and took a sip of wine gloomily. She planned to release an album at the end of the year just to give them a slap in the face.
And she needed a producer like Tarot, so she came to Seoul.
She was not sure whether she could reach a cooperation with Gong Cheng. When she was in Los Angeles, she had invited him several times, both openly and secretly, but each time he declined ambiguously.
"The whole album?" After seeing Taylor nod, Gong Cheng took a sip of his wine and laughed. "I thought you wanted me to collaborate on a single, but I didn't expect you to be the producer of the album."
For singers, in addition to making a living with their voice, the arrangement of each song is also of paramount importance. Even for Taylor Swift and Justin Bieber, most of the producers of their previous songs have sought world-renowned producers to handle them.
Gong Cheng didn't expect Taylor to be so bold as to go straight to Seoul and let him take over as the producer of her new album.
"You can think about it again." Taylor took a sip of wine nervously. She didn't want to come all the way to Seoul and hear the rejection news.
"Thank you for forwarding it last year." Gong Cheng raised his glass and clinked glasses with her. Taylor's forwarding of "Fake Love" last year could be said to have promoted the song.
Even though he was badly criticized last year, he still has a lot of loyal fans.
"If I take charge of the entire album, my time might be a bit sporadic. I have to go to the UK and Paris next month to take care of fashion weeks." Gong Cheng implied that he agreed.
In fact, even if he doesn't pay much attention to public opinion in Europe and the United States, he has been under the spotlight of the world since this year, and there will definitely be controversies about him there. He will inevitably be envied, slandered, suppressed and defamed by his peers.
The main reason I agreed to this was probably because of the forwarding last year. I owed someone a favor, so I'd pay it back if I could.
As for the mess between Taylor and Kanye West, no one can tell what is true and what is false. He is too lazy to find out and doesn't care what others think. He is going to produce Taylor's new album.
I can be the producer for whoever I want!
"You agree?" Taylor opened her red lips in surprise, then quickly raised her wine glass with a smile on her face.
On the plane to Seoul, she had thought that Gong Cheng would refuse, and she had also thought that he would agree, but everything was based on a simple feat of one song, and she was a little unsure about letting the person in front of her take charge of the production of the entire album.
"It's okay if time is tight. The album release can be postponed. I originally planned to release a pre-release song last month, but the producer hasn't been decided yet, so it was put on hold."
"If you plan to release it by the end of the year, then there should be no problem. No matter how busy you are, it won't exceed this year." Gong Cheng smiled and raised his glass, clinking glasses with her. As for the specific cooperation contract, he would leave it to the agent to negotiate.
"But since it's your own album, I'm just giving you some assistance."
He chuckled and took a sip of wine. He believed Taylor could handle the lyrics of the song. He was just helping her with the arrangement. It was not quite right to call him the first producer.
Producers are also ranked in order: first producer, second producer...
"No, Tarot, you're the producer I hired specifically for this job." Taylor looked at him seriously. "Thank you for helping me."
She could hear that Gong Cheng was politely declining the title of number one producer, but given her current situation, she believed that Gong Cheng's arrival would allow her to return to the world music scene, and she believed in Gong Cheng's abilities.
Because of his tactful refusal, I couldn't help but feel more touched and trusting.
For a producer, there is a huge difference between being the first producer and the second producer, just like the head chef and the kitchen helper in the kitchen.
Or to put it more bluntly, "You are the cornerstone of our championship. Without you, we can't lift the trophy!" "We were the champions before you came."
Taylor put down the heavy stone hanging in his heart and smiled with determination, "It goes without saying that the top producer position belongs to you. You must do your best."
"Clang~" the wine glasses collided.
Seeing that he couldn't refuse, Gong Cheng nodded helplessly and agreed.
"By the way, have you signed with LV and Burberry?" After the cooperation was finalized, Taylor's mood became better and better, and he chatted casually with Gong Cheng.
"Well, I'm going to England and France next month because of this. I have to go to some shows and shoot some magazine covers." Gong Cheng nodded and started chatting. Suddenly, he remembered something and looked at Taylor in surprise. "Don't tell me you have activities in Paris next month?"
"Yes, it's also an LV show like yours." Since Taylor sent out that tweet to fight back before going to Seoul, she decided to return to the public eye.
Gong Cheng had some knowledge of her contact with Lv, so he guessed what she wanted to say behind her smiling expression.
"However, you also have to be careful. After you are officially announced as the global spokesperson for two top luxury brands, there will definitely be a lot of jealous voices in Europe and the United States." Taylor said with concern. It is not easy to meet a friend who is willing to help you when you are at your lowest point.
Especially after experiencing the snake-brushing incident last year, she has a deep understanding of this.
The reason why she was afraid of Gong Cheng's rejection at the beginning was also because of this incident. How could a superstar who was at the peak of his career be willing to be involved in such a thing?
Especially since Gong Cheng is strictly speaking a rapper. When "Rockstar" won the championship single, many of his peers in the circle expressed jealousy, but Gong Cheng was not very in tune with the music scene in Europe and the United States.
It's like just releasing a song and that's it. I don't participate in many activities there, so I don't know much about it.
"Jealous?" Gong Cheng curled his lips, finding it difficult to understand the train of thought of some people. "Even if I don't want these endorsements, they won't get them anyway."
However, let them jump around, compared to LV, Burberry, and Armani, Aston Martin is the highlight!
High-end luxury endorsements are all about sales volume and commercial value, and the curved gold coin statistics chart can prove it all.
……
The next day, after a night of fermentation, the news that Taylor came to Seoul and left with Gong Cheng swept the world in an instant.
[Tarot and Taylor are in a relationship! They went to Seoul to register their marriage together!]
[Bitch Taylor seduces rising star Tarot! ]
Taylor lives up to her bitch reputation and lets loose!
Taylor is in Seoul taking care of her baby...
"..."
In the JYP building, Gong Cheng took Taylor for a stroll while her agent was negotiating some cooperation matters with the company.
"What's so good about it?" Gong Cheng glanced at Taylor, who was staring at the hot searches on the foreign Internet with an unpleasant expression.
From the snake-brushing incident to now, Taylor's reputation has plummeted overnight. According to his understanding of Taylor, before this incident, Taylor had always lived in praise, so until now, this sister has been a little at a loss.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have chosen to evade the media, withdraw from the public eye, and even moved abroad from the U.S. It wasn't until May of this year that he began to emerge somewhat, preparing for a new album, wanting to fight back, and seemingly wanting to turn evil.
"I'm fine, it's just that some public opinion has started to spread rumors about you." Taylor glanced at Gong Cheng sideways a little embarrassedly. She was 180cm tall and almost the same height as Gong Cheng when she wore high heels.
She felt that she had somewhat implicated the guy next to her. The things she had worried about last night were now gradually coming true.
Once it is officially announced that she will be working with Gong Cheng, it is estimated that the media and colleagues in Europe and the United States will focus their firepower on Gong Cheng.
"Doesn't this help you share the firepower?" Gong Cheng said with a chuckle. He didn't care much. The road ahead was long and the mountains were high. He wouldn't pay too much attention to the European and American media! His mentality has always been very good.
"You really like to joke..." Taylor put away her phone speechlessly and walked side by side with him. Along the way, the employees here seemed very respectful to Tarot beside them. Some staff members wanted to take photos with her, and she happily agreed.
According to her thinking, she had been out of the public eye for so long, and Tarot happened to become her first producer, so she planned to stay in Seoul and discuss the production of the new album with Gong Cheng before the album was released.
Coincidentally, the two of them will be able to travel together to Paris next month to attend a fashion show, and then return to Seoul to continue working on the album.
Gong Cheng's schedule did not allow him to stay in the United States for so long to help her produce the album, so she simply stayed in Seoul, where there was a ready-made recording studio.
"I'm not kidding." Gong Cheng stopped and pressed the elevator button. "We've always lived in controversy, haven't we?"
Taylor laughed when she heard this. She knew about Gong Cheng's past, and it was true. Scandals, gossip, international gestures... emerged one after another.
"I won't be used to the media saying good things about me one day."
Gong Cheng shrugged and walked into the elevator with Taylor.
……
In the afternoon, Taylor returned to the hotel. Gong Cheng came to Twice's practice room and saw his good sister Chou Tzuyu lying on the sofa with her mobile phone in her arms, swiping the screen.
Her cute little face looked a little unhappy.
"What's wrong, Tzuyu?" Gong Cheng thought she was still sad about being left alone in Seoul during the Mid-Autumn Festival, and wanted to comfort her.
"It's okay." Zhou Ziyu immediately put away her phone, and the hot search title on the screen was [TT, CP].
After Taylor arrived in Seoul and photos of Gong Cheng sending her back to the hotel were taken and uploaded to the Internet, public opinion about Taylor's pregnancy grew.
And the majority of CP fans started to enjoy the couple’s romance.
【TT——Tarot&Taylor Swift】
Gong Cheng was just about to say something, like going upstairs tonight and cooking Tainan dishes for you so that you can reminisce about the taste of your mother's food, but then he thought again, this is not a good idea, wouldn't it just add fuel to the fire?
At Jin Dayu's call, he had to leave first and ask the brother what was the matter.
After seeing him leave, Zhou Ziyu pursed her lips and breathed a sigh of relief.
Looking at the comment section of the hot search again, all kinds of CP fans occupied this place.
"Bullshit [TT], we [Cheng & Hyun] are unmatched in the world!"
"Isn't there anyone who supports Jisoo and Tarot?"
"[Cheng & Yun] are the perfect match, okay? There's one on the roadside upstairs! A bunch of short-legged pigeons have to hold a chisel when having sex with my pigeons!"
"Hehe, then aren't we [TT] the perfect match? Taylor is 180cm tall and wearing high heels, almost as tall as Oppa, almost 190cm. Oppa is standing and kicking..."
Zhou Ziyu blushed and looked confused. What was going on?
She looked through it for a long time, and the oppa's various CPs were all very popular in the comment section, almost encompassing most of the kpop trends, including beautiful female artists and some of her own sisters.
After reading nearly a hundred comments, Zhou Ziyu finally clicked "like" with satisfaction and exited the page.
"I'm holding the banner for Tarot & Tzuyu! [Honey Fish Ice Cheng], come gather here! Our slogan is: Sweet and adorable Tzuyu, icy and domineering Gong Gong Cheng! Super high!"
……
When they arrived at the company's basement, Jin Dae-woo drove the Maybach and Gong Cheng sat in the back seat.
The two were preparing to go to SM. Because of the photo taken at the airport last night, his Land Rover could not be shown in public for the time being. It was not that he could not drive it, but it was not convenient for him to take his girlfriend out on dates every few days. As for the company car, the media remembered the license plate number better than his mother's mobile phone number.
It’s okay if it’s just one daughter, and it doesn’t matter if it’s photographed. The main thing is that the daughter sitting in the passenger seat is different every time, and he is also considering the careers of his daughters.
So I plan to go to Wu Sehun's place and borrow the SUV that I drove before for a while.
Originally, Gong Cheng planned to buy another one directly. With so many daughters and relatives, he could never have too many cars. Some of his investment projects had brought back a lot of money last month, but thinking of the imminent Aston Martin endorsement, he stopped the idea.
Once the cooperation is reached, the brand will send a new model of the car, as well as a concept car that shocked the sports car circle this year. After all, he is endorsing a sports car brand.
"Have you considered cooperating with Taylor?" Jin Dayu asked. He shouldn't have said so much.
However, the company is responsible for monitoring the direction of public opinion about Gong Cheng in European and American media, which has always been relatively stable and positive. However, after Taylor came to Seoul, it has exploded a bit, and it is definitely not a good thing.
"I agree." Gong Cheng nodded and looked out the car window.
Regardless of the depth of their personal relationship or their interests, the matter between Taylor and Kanye West would be resolved no matter what. He heard Taylor say that she was also trying to reverse the public opinion.
But even if this situation will not be reversed in the future, with Taylor's size and influence, he will disappear for two years at most. As long as he can create a masterpiece album, he can return to the European and American music scene again.
"OK." Jin Dayu nodded and said nothing more.
Originally, the company was somewhat evasive about this matter, fearing that it would have some impact on Gong Cheng. After all, Gong Cheng, who was sitting in the back row, was very popular, and Taylor was in a situation where he was the target of public criticism.
However, Park Jin-young is still willing to believe that Gong Sung and Taylor can create an album that will shut the world up, and then Gong Sung's influence as a producer will be further expanded.
The reason he recognized Gong Cheng's ability to become a superstar was that his role as a producer was paramount. After all, some songs become popular no matter who sings them. It doesn't matter who sings them; the song is what matters, not the person.
Some songs, however, only become popular when they are sung by the right person, which is a two-sided thing.
But Gong Cheng is different. Ever since he broke into Europe and the United States, various brokerage companies in the peninsula wanted to "copy" another Gong Cheng, but the final result was that the candidates they pushed out were not even popular.
Completely unreplicable, whether it's the looks, the voice, the production, the temperament, every aspect...
This is also the reason why the Peninsula media has gradually lost interest in Gong Cheng. They only have one Tarot, who cannot be replaced.
……
The next day, Taylor and Gong Cheng signed a cooperation contract, and the two came to JYP's new building in Gangdong District together.
The pre-shooting of the promotional posters began. Taylor had her blonde hair neatly tied up, and she wore a black long dress that dragged on the floor. Gong Cheng stood beside her casually with his hands in his pockets, smiling calmly, with no other expression.
Nim, the director in charge of the filming, looked at the scene in the camera. A female singer who was once the most popular, and a male singer who is currently at the peak of his career, wearing black long skirts and shirts, gave a sense of oppression from the powerful combination.
In the afternoon, the shooting of promotional posters was completed.
In the composition room and recording studio of JYP's new building, Park Jin Young spent a lot of money to prepare new equipment for Gong Cheng that matched those in Europe and the United States, and welcomed its first customer - Taylor Swift!
