Tang Jinyan is probably the only person who can find the feeling of returning home from the solemn talks between the two countries.
At the banquet, the leaders gave speeches. The diplomatic delegation and the Chinese officials sat in their seats and listened with solemn expressions. After listening to the speeches, they ate solemnly without saying a word. They were meticulous about who would eat first. Zheng Mengzhun felt that anyone who could eat at such a banquet and feel like they were at home must be lying.
But when he saw Tang Jinyan's expression, he did not feel like he is faking it.
It's because Chinese food is too authentic.
In South Korea, even if you go to the best Chinese restaurant, Shilla Hotel, you will not be able to taste the Chinese food at China's state banquet.
It did not matter that the atmosphere was solemn because Tang Jinyan was not in the mood to talk.
Every mouthful of food was able to awaken his lost memories and awaken his buried emotions.
"I want to look for my family." After the banquet, Tang Jinyan whispered to Su Shan.
Su Shan sighed. "Actually, we have already looked for them secretly."
Tang Jinyan is not surprised. It will be a dereliction of duty if the Chinese do not want to find out more about him.
He asked calmly. "Old Master, judging from your tone, you have not found anything?"
"Nothing."
Su Shan sighed. "Your parents might have smuggled themselves out of the country. It's been more than 20 years, and we can't find out through normal means."
Tang Jinyan nodded and did not say anything.
He only knows he is from Shandong and does not know which city he is from. It's like looking for a needle in a haystack.
Su Shan felt a little guilty. "We will continue to look for families who brought a six-year-old child out of the country more than 20 years ago."
"Don't be too deliberate. Let's leave it to fate." Tang Jinyan smiled. "It's just a sudden feeling. If we can't find them, so be it.
To be honest, if you all point to an unfamiliar old man and tell me he is my grandfather, I might not acknowledge him. "
Su Shan laughed. "You are quite open-minded."
Tang Jinyan smiled and looked at his watch. It's late after the banquet. He hesitated for a while and did not look for Yun 'er and Xu Xian. He returned to the hotel to rest.
He put on a coat and stood on the balcony of his room. He looked up at the night sky and sighed.
*****
The next day he put away his homesickness.
Yesterday, the main characters were the politicians. Today, the main characters were the economic envoys.
Nominally, it was a "China-Korea Business Cooperation Forum" jointly organized by the China International Trade Promotion Committee and the Korean Business Conference. The theme was to deepen the business cooperation between the two countries.
No matter how the people of the two countries viewed each other, in fact, the two countries had a lot of business cooperation over the years.
Typical examples were Beijing Hyundai and Samsung's semiconductor factory in China.
Chinese businessmen also invested a lot in South Korea. The most famous one was the Tang Company, which was jointly established by the two countries' governments and jointly invested by Tang Jinyan and Su San.
Therefore, Tang Jinyan could be considered as a relatively important protagonist today. In addition to the Chinese businessmen, even officials from the Ministry of Culture, the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television, the National Tourism Administration, the National Development and Reform Commission, and other departments participated in the exchange with him.
The conversation lasted for a very long time. Apart from the official rhetoric, there were only two general points of agreement.
First, Tang Film and Television City and Hengdian Film and Television City would become brother cities and strengthen cooperation in tourism and filming.
Second, in the next few years, Tang Jinyan would invest in China's Sino-Korean film and television projects, and the Chinese side would invest in South Korea's film and television projects.
The artists under the company would interact with each other.
"My company's T-ara group has signed a contract with your country's Longzhen Culture." Tang Jinyan did not miss the opportunity to reveal his secret. "I hope you will support us."
"That's what we should do."
This was completely in line with the theme, and it was even a forerunner. T-ara was really the first idol group in history to officially sign a contract with China.
The Ministry of Culture official looked at T-ara's information and was surprised. "It seems that President Tang has already paved the way for the cultural exchange between the two countries."
Of course, Tang Jinyan would not say that it was because he did not want them to go to the United States back then and had a sudden inspiration to change the battlefield. He smiled slightly and said enigmatically, "China has a huge market. Anyone with insight will not miss it."
In other people's ears, these words really sounded far-sighted.
It would be normal for an artist to sign a contract after this forum, but T-ara's contract was signed half a year before this. Not only was it far-sighted, but it was also a true pioneer of cultural exchange. It would not be right if it was not set as an example when it was openly mentioned on the forum.
The Ministry of Culture official immediately said, "We will contact Longzhen Culture later and discuss T-ara's development in China with them.
In my opinion, they should go on various variety shows first to build up their popularity. "
Tang Jinyan nodded. "I'm not an expert in the management of artists. I hope you will support us."
"Rest assured, President Tang. As a pioneer of cultural exchange, the government will help promote them."
The SARFT official hesitated for a moment and said, "Let's see the results in the next six months. If it's suitable, we can consider the Spring Festival Gala."
Tang Jinyan was secretly happy. He did not expect this to be an advantage. With the help of the government, it would be hard for T-ara not to become popular in China.
Another person asked, "Other than film and television, does President Tang have any plans to invest in other industries?"
If this question was asked yesterday, Tang Jinyan would most likely have said no. Today, although he did not have any specific ideas, he still smiled pretentiously. "I hope to be inspired by this forum."
The Chinese representatives were silent for a while. Tang Jinyan did not have any physical products, so other than tourism and entertainment, which had already been discussed, no one could propose specific goals in other areas.
If there was no discussion in advance, there would not be any suitable projects to propose. No one dared to suggest immature ideas on such an occasion.
Tang Jinyan looked calm, but his mind was racing. This was a rare opportunity. It would be a pity if he did not take the opportunity to strengthen cooperation in other areas.
However, to start a new project, not to mention the risk, he did not have enough funds at his disposal. There were few suitable options.
At this moment, someone asked, "What does President Tang think of mobile games?"
Tang Jinyan was stunned.
He was not an expert in this at all. He only knew that it was a money-making game. Well, it was a typical example of playing games without money …
The other party said, "We are planning a mobile game to nurture Chinese and Korean celebrities. We have already had preliminary contact with your country's S * M Company."
At this point, Tang Jinyan nodded. He knew what he meant.
This kind of game could not nurture celebrities. The most troublesome part was the copyright. Normally, when an S * M Company cooperated with you, it was to make money and promote their own artists. Why would they interfere with other companies?
Unless Tang Jinyan's cooperation with the S * M Company was as close as Ai Hui's, then they could consider working together.
The other party did not go overboard. He meant that he should talk to the S * M Company first.
Tang Jinyan was silent.
Mobile game?
S * M …
