The past should be treated as a beautiful childhood memory, do you hold on to it? - The short girl with her hair down looked up at her friend. - Right! It's a bit of a pity... - The tall girl rests her chin on top of the short girl's head. - YOOJUNG! DOYEON! Fast to get off the car! - The manager's voice called - NAE! - Both of them opened the door in unison, and inside the small screen was still showing The Show where our girls happily celebrated. - Where are we going today? - Yoojung is curious - No announcements about this schedule! - Doyeon asked the same question. - This is just a meeting! I just heard my boss say that! - The manager replied. Doyeon and Yoojung looked at each other and followed the manager. ... - Daniel! A representative from Diamond Star wants to meet you, how do you arrange it? - The manager asked. - Diamond Star? Never heard of this name! - Kang Daniel crossed his legs suspiciously. - It's a new company! - I'm busy! Tell them to wait another time! - Daniel rotates the chair opposite the manager. - Then let me tell them! - The manager leaves. "Everyhing have been so troublesome lately!" Daniel's POV. ... - Somi! - Daehwi! - Awww~! The boy and the girl ran towards each other, hugging each other and jumping up and down. - Were you invited by them? - Somi pulled Daehwi to sit down. - Me and Woojin hyung! You too? - Daehwi looked around. - Yeah! Don't know what they are planning? - Somi pouted. - Do you think like me? - Daehwi had a guess in his mind. - It's hard to believe, but I thought so! - Somi heard and understood. ... - The President before leaving, gave everyone each task! Hope we finish it before she comes back! - Lucy stood in the meeting room directing everyone. - It's really busy this time! - Woohyun looked down at the stack of documents, each file had a section of targets that needed to be completed urgently. - I'm not free either! Now it's time to promote the role of human resources director! - Yohan focused on the screen. - And I take care of everything myself? - Heechul raised his hand to speak. - During this time, you and Myungsoo will work together! The two of you don't let Yumin down because you two are holding a pivotal role in this plan! - Lucy pointed to the guy sitting next to Heechul. - Happy cooperation! - Heechul reached out to Myungsoo. - Hope you can help me more! - Myungsoo smiled and shook hands. - Good! The things to hand over I have passed on to everyone, the meeting is over! Let's get back to work, the guests have arrived! - Lucy turned off the projector. - Just give it to us! _________________________________ Three days before the flight... Yumin went to Bighit but didn't meet Bang Sihyuk but the duo Superme Boi and ADORA! - So you're in charge of producing music for the company? - Suhyun stirred a glass of juice to chat. - Nae! I will also look for reputable producers to work with! - Yumin pushed the coffee cup over Donghyuk. - When you mentioned this, I remembered! (Rummage) Give you! - Donghyuk took from his backpack a concert ticket and gave it to Yumin - Ah! "Muzic Producers Festival"! This is where producers gather and interact with each other every year! They are all in the underground world but have many hit songs that make their names attractive to the music-loving community! - Suhyun explained. - So... - Yumin started asking Donghyuk to continue. - You can make friends through this festival! Maybe in the future, thanks to them, you will have many unique music products! - Dohyuk patted Yumin's shoulder. - I get it! Thanks for introducing me to this festival, I won't miss it! - Yumin holds the ticket firmly. - Looking forward to hits from Diamond Star! - Suhyun smiled. - Nae! Not long! - Yumin replied. ... And after arranging work in Korea, now Yumin is safe to go to start the journey outside "the land of Kimchi". On the plane First destination is New York! Yumin was scheduled to go there before, and the music festival that Donghyuk suggested will be held in five days, hopefully Yumin will attend in time. A long flight from Korea to New York took a lot of Yumin's energy, and as soon as he got off the airport, Yumin felt a little sluggish. Accompanying Yumin is Junho, he searches through the stream of people, want to know who will come to pick them up. Junho volunteered to carry all his belongings to make Yumin comfortable, Yumin did not hesitate to go ahead. About 10 minutes later, in front of two people appeared the first supercar of the Middle East - Lykan Hypersport produced and launched by W Motors supercar company in 2013. The supercar appeared in the action blockbuster Fast & Furious 7. With an extremely luxurious interior design, encrusted with gems and gold, the car costs up to $3.4 million and the Dubai-based automaker only produces 7 units worldwide.
Junho swallowed hard, he was a bit scared if he had to drive this expensive supercar. A guy came down, about a few centimeters taller than Yumin, his skin is whiter than Yumin's with blue eyes, he seems to be British! - Hi homie! Welcome to New York City! - The guy who was just standing in front of both of them immediately burst into English. - Are you a friend of Harry? - Yumin asked an English question again. - Yes! My name is Kenny! Help Harry pick up his young partner today! Get in the car, I'll drive because you two are guests! - Kenny invited Yumin and Junho. Yumin obviously sat in the back, Junho next to Kenny. - I've heard Harry mention you many times! I'm looking forward to meeting you, Yumin! - Kenny said while driving. - Thank you for your interest! - Yumin politely communicates. - In the future, maybe we will have the opportunity to work together without being forced to do anything! You can call me Ken too! - Ken's generous and enthusiastic personality makes Yumin somewhat less stressed. Only Junho could not understand words and sit still without saying a word. The car runs very fast but smoothly without any trouble to get to where it needs to be. A mansion located separately in the heart of New York City, Ken looked at the face recognition board confirmed the giant iron door slowly opened automatically, Ken drove into the large campus and went a few minutes deeper. finally stopped in the main hall of Harry's house. Ken quickly got out of the car, followed by Yumin and Junho next to him to protect him. Ken led the way to the plush chairs in the living room, he approached another guy who was reading the news on an iPad and whispered in his ear. Yumin's heart was mixed with excitement because she met friends who helped her a lot before finding Lucy's group. The guy next to Ken was very tall, about 1m90, wearing round glasses, his skin was also very white, he approached Yumin and hugged her like a courtesy. - I'm so glad you're here! Welcome to the Son family, I'm Harry Son! - Harry shook Yumin's hand. - Hi, Harry! I look forward to meeting you too, so grateful for your help during these difficult times! - Yumin smiled. - This is what friends should do! Yumin! Aunt Hasley misses you so much, she's been waiting impatiently for you! - Harry laughed. At the same time, a girl of small height but extremely hot body was helping a woman in her 50s down the stairs. The woman tried to close the distance with Yumin, Yumin also coordinated to hug her. - Mrs. Hasley! I miss you so much! - Yumin squeezed her hand slightly then quickly released it and looked at Hasley. - I have been waiting for you since the day I received your call! You probably haven't eaten yet, follow me! - Hasley took Yumin's hand and led her to the dining room. - This is Katty! Harry's girlfriend, she now works with Harry at AD Bank! - Hasley brought out a lot of dishes, she devotedly took care of Yumin like her own grandaughter. - Nae! Hi Katty! My name is Yumin! - Yumin said to Katty. - I know! Harry contacted earlier! - Katty sat next to Harry. There is no surprise in this reunion. Back on the night Yumin freed Juri from the hospital, Yumin and Hasley made a promise, Yumin really trusted to fulfill her promise to quickly contact Hasley's nephew Harry Son who settled in America to return to the court chaos here. Although he didn't want to, Harry reluctantly accepted the title of "heir" to his career in Korea. Hearing Yumin's story, Harry jumped at the opportunity to assign Yumin to help him look after the company in Korea. And Harry will monitor from afar, Yumin has no choice but to accept the invitation for Hasley, in return Harry has to help Yumin support the capital to invest in Diamond Star! Hasley is well cared for, so her health has recovered a lot, she can go to the company to work, but Harry prevents her from enjoying her old age. ... - Now I'm a shareholder of AD Bank! Then there is no need to work hard anymore because I have you, Kenny and Katty to support me with the situation in America. You can look to big investors from iPhone companies, Microsoft or Facebook,... to find investment opportunities in them! - Everyone is currently in Harry's office discussing. - AD Bank is the economic center of investors who want to cooperate and invest here, so it is easier for us to work with them! - Katty sat in front of Harry's desk. - Here I am the one who holds the most data and customer information! Yumin can find me and learn more! - Ken hits the computer non-stop, the numbers keep going up and down, people who don't understand will be shocked when they see them. - Thank you very much! - Yumin is the youngest in the group and has little experience in running the company, but everyone still supports Yumin every day. Before because of the geographical distance, she didn't feel much enthusiasm from them outside of work, now Yumin can fully see it. All difficulties can be overcome with friends by your side! After the briefing, Yumin returned to the room that Hasley arranged for her. All day without rest, Yumin couldn't help it anymore and closed her eyes and fell into a dream. ... On Diamond Star's side, without Yumin, there's a group of chaos! - You must declare the correct data which is neither redundant nor indispensable. When the president comes back, I want a complete report, you know? - Woohyun wrinkled his forehead, pointed out the mistakes of the staff and then managed them in order. - I have divided the stable position! Everyone in charge of a position must be responsible for their work! Those who have a positive attitude at work, I will definitely consider rewarding but if they oppose, the consequences will be to leave here! - Yohan sternly deterred subordinates. Looks like the management system has dislocated from Yumin's original idea. - Heechul! How is the negotiation? - Lucy checked the books, put them in order. - It's a bit difficult to unify everyone's decision! If they agree, I can still handle it, over there, some people accept it, some people hesitate, some people don't even meet to talk! - In all his years as a lawyer, Heechul has never encountered a case like this. - Who is not coming? Lucy asked, she also thought the same situation would happen. Yumin's plan is a bit... - Kang Daniel! He is not currently under any management company! Daniel plans to start his own company, run by him! - Myungsoo replied, he's been considered an important part of the company lately, busy a lot. - Temporarily don't go to Kang Daniel! Call him every now and then to remind him of our offer! - Lucy sighed. - What about you, Myungsoo? How do you plan to promote the company and press conferences? - Lucy looked at Myungsoo. - Everything is fine! Just waiting for the decision from the president! Lucy nodded to tell them both to continue working, the office door closed. Lucy sat on the chair and looked at the closed room next to it, shaking her head and holding a pen to work. "Hurry back, Yumin!" Lucy's POV ... - Is there such information? Where do people hear it? - Chaeyeon hurriedly poked her head into the group of people outside the waiting room. - A friend of mine works there! He heard that they were planning a reunion for IOI and Wanna One, the news was immediately leaked and netizens immediately went to search for the truth! - The manager held up the phone to show a forum post about rumors. - Do you know which company it is? - Chaeyeon continued to be curious. - What is the diamond? - The manager tried to remember. - DIAMOND STAR! - That's right, Diamond Star! Did you learn about it too, Hyewon? - Randomly surfing the net! - Hyewon swallowed the bread, took another sip of milk that passed like the wind. - If you want to know more, ask Somi and Daehwi! You're close with both! - The manager suggested Chaeyeon. - I'll give them a call when I have time! - Chaeyeon looked up and saw that the girls had finished changing, and hurriedly ran after them. _________________________________Staying with Hasley for a few days Yumin regretfully bid farewell to her and the Harry trio, setting off for the next journey. "Muzic producer Festival" was held in the US state of California, lasting 2 days and 1 night. Where local producers gather to showcase their own musical style and qualities, Yumin joins the crowd to enjoy the various genres of music performed for all music lovers attending the ceremony. association today. Soon Yumin made some interesting friends. At the end of the festival, they went to a bar to chat, opposite Yumin were two American producers: Joker & Jack! These two are teammates together, their forte is EDM, hip hop! The melodies with strong bass are transformed into addictive, ear-catching products. Next are two Japanese guys: Tsuki & Reno! The songs of both are mostly soft, chill and cute! They were introduced to this festival by friends like Yumin. Behind is a trio of close friends: Thiên Bình - Vi Khang - My Quyen! Chinese and Taiwanese nationals, respectively. Together they compose and write lyrics of popular songs in China, ballads are the advantage of all three, because of the excitement of this festival, the trio of close friends plan to carry their backpacks tonight. Next to Yumin are two friends who have met before at SOPA school: Kang Sejoon & Jeon Seowoo! They also studied "applied music" but were in a different class from Yumin, and also participated in composing some impromptu songs. In Yumin's opinion, both are very talented, maybe they can become hit producers for Kpop in the future! The last person Yumin found most interesting was the girl sitting not far from Yumin. Coincidentally, both are compatriots of "Vietnam". The girl named Huynh Thu! At a very young age, but passionate about music from an early age, this girl has almost all the knowledge about music genres, so she does not limit her creativity. This factor needs to be fostered more to improve in the future. Yumin also freely shared her own musical style and released an offer to invite everyone to compose songs for idols! As a result, only Joker - Jack, Sejoon - Seowoo accepted the invitation. Trio of close friends China - Taiwan, they decided to stay in their hometown but promised to send their compositions to Yumin to choose for the sake of the idol. Tsuki & Reno prefer to collaborate in Japan because they know the market there, so they will be responsible for the production when the idol is active in Japan. Hyunh Thu still hesitated to know how to choose because she did not have a companion, so she was quite lonely. But Yumin understood and dissuaded Hyung Thu and successfully persuaded her to join Yumin. After a long conversation, Yumin achieved the purpose of the trip. Escort friends back to Korea to accompany Yumin at Diamond Star! _________________________________ At a meeting at Diamond Star - Totally absurd! - How can it be convenient for people like that! - We still have plans for their future! Representatives from management companies are very upset, constantly raising objections to Lucy's proposal. Lucy sighed, they weren't the ones who decided everything, but the boys and girls sitting outside the meeting room. - I know the idea is a bit difficult to accept, but I still hope everyone will think twice, this will be an explosive breakthrough for this project! Moreover, I want to hear the opinions of the idols! - Lucy calms down the situation. ... - So how will unnie decide? - I don't know! I'm still active in a group right now, it's a bit selfish to say it but I want to reunite! - It's tough! After this meeting, I don't know how to face the members! - Daniel didn't come? - He is very persistent! No means no! Outside the Diamond Star main hall, the boys and girls had a short chat. Do not know what their future will happen, just enjoy the calm moment before the upcoming storm! ... - Woah~! I'm going crazy like this! - Heechul hugged his head and screamed. - Let's get through this phase and we'll be fine! - Lucy shared coffee among the members. - Um! Trouble is also reduced, we have to complete the task well so that the president won't have to work hard! - Woohyun was pleased to see the report he received in the mail. - Yes! Just to think that Yumin just came back and helped us solve the chaos we created, the "effective subordinates" like us are to blame! - Yohan shrugged. - You can't rely on Yumin forever either! - Lucy stirred the coffee. - Everyone has good news here! - Myungsoo is like a spring breeze that brightens up a corner of the room. - Myungsoo! You really are the "rescue" god, always hearing good news from you! - Heechul smiled. - Thanks to the help of Mr. Bang Sihyuk, all operating licenses of Diamond Star have been approved! I also contacted the reporters about the establishment of the company, they also arranged for us, there will be no problem! For now, just waiting for Yumin to come back! - Myungsoo does his duty very well. - Very good! Everyone, we can't lose form either, let's make the president proud of our achievement! - Lucy restarts the spirit for all. - FIGHTING!!! In times of busy and stressful work like this, the members can unite and encourage each other. ... Yumin didn't waste a second, and quickly returned to Korea after finishing work. Junho took the car to pick up Yumin both on the way back to Diamond Star, Yumin in the car answered the phone. - Thank you so much oppa! I can't help much, in the future, I hope everyone helps us! Of course, I really appreciate those who are with me during this time! That... for when i have a chance! Nae, I'm hanging up! - Yumin smiled and grabbed the phone. Everything is about to begin! It's time for all the conspiracy to be exposed! ... - Yumin-ah~~~! - Lucy did not notice the glances, she ran to Yumin and hugged her tightly. - How long have I been gone for you to act like that! - Yumin is helpless. - Let's start the meeting! Woohyun cleared his throat. - You ruined the atmosphere Woohyun! - Yohan laughed as Lucy pouted and glanced at Woohyun. In the meeting room Yumin kept nodding at everyone's efforts, they did better than Yumin's expectations. To put it bluntly, Yumin is still lacking compared to them, receiving these many achievements is due to all the hard-working and hardworking staff. - Myungsoo! You did a great job, if it goes as planned, we can start the founding project in three days! At the same time announcing the "Reunion" plan - Yumin looked at Myungsoo. - Can contribute to the president, I am willing to receive more assignments! - Myungsoo respectfully seems like he really sees Yumin as a superior. - We all contribute to this company, so you don't have to work hard! - Yumin chuckled at Myungsoo's shy attitude. Where's the bossy young man today? - There are no problems with the contracts of the management companies! The members all have their choice to make a unified decision except for one... - Heechul raised an eyebrow. - I heard Lucy mentioned! This time, I will come out in person, will it be easier to discuss between CEOs? - Yumin rubs her chin The meeting ended peacefully, Yumin accompanied Myungsoo and Junho out of the meeting room. - Thanks to this opportunity, my father has a good view of me! He even encouraged me to work hard and made sure to support our activities in the future! - Myungsoo said with his hands in his pockets. - That sounds good! Thanks Director Park for me! - Yumin just smiled. - Yumin! I can guarantee my dad has nothing to do with Juri's case! He is a man of integrity, very trustworthy! - Myungsoo is still worried about this issue. He can't read Yumin's mind! - Those who do not interfere with me will not take action! Since you were so certain, I have to accept that belief! As soon as she walked to the elevator, Yumin overheard an argument that made her frown to find out. - Who is the boss here! I have more experience than you, I say it like it is! If you have an opinion, leave the company! - What's up? - Myungsoo asked. - Oh, I'm just supervising my staff! - The manager replied. - He did not work according to the company's style, applied the old rules to oppress employees, I felt urgent, so I wanted to express my opinion, so this situation happened! - The girl's face popped out of milk, curling her lips to present. - Is that so? - Yumin is interested in the girl. - You know what! I've been the leader of the management team for so many years, maybe I don't know how to run, the young and inexperienced girl still wants to ask questions! - The foreman pointed to the girl's face. - Age doesn't matter! In my opinion, the person's ability to deal with the job is the only thing that speaks to their ability, even if they have long-term experience but the quality is not effective, there is a difference compared to a new person who has talent! - Yumin frowned at the manager's attitude. How can Yohan recruit this kind of staff to Diamond Star? - Yah! You mean I have no power! Who do you think you are to judge others, director? - The manager looked down at the young Yumin with disdain. - Hey... - Junho wanted to explain Yumin's identity, but she clasped her hands behind her back to stop him. - Yoo Kang Guk! I think tomorrow you can pack up and quit! - Yohan said with a serious face behind Kang Guk's back! - Why? Director also knows my ability well, they don't understand the problem and even rebuke me, so I made it clear for them to understand! - Kang Guk can't believe it, in this situation, it's at best a warning, but dismissing is a bit heavy-handed. - The person in front of you is more than enough to judge you! - Fortunately, Yumin's position is still a secret, so you can clearly see this type of employee who has a bit of talent. - Human resource management for good on Yohan! - Yumin coldly, she glanced at Kang Guk who was looking at her in surprise as if finding something unbelievable. Yumin pursed her lips and looked at the girl - What your name? - I... my name is Choi Sumin! - Sumin stood motionless with the invisible pressure emanating from Yumin, stammering in reply. - Let's continue to promote this form in the future! The company desperately needs talented and full-fledged employees like you! - Yumin rolled her eyes to Yohan, he immediately understood and nodded. Something unexpected happened, Yumin wiped her hand and took Junho with her, Yohan patted Sumin's shoulder and announced with a smile. - Choi Sumin starts from now on packing things up to the office of the inaugural General Manager, I hope you don't disappoint me! - Jinja! All of a sudden, I don't think I'm qualified! - Sumin broke out in a cold sweat. - Enough or not, let time observe, my boss's opinion is indisputable! If there's anything you don't understand, just find me, I'll be happy to explain your questions in detail! As for Mr. Kang Guk, hurry up and leave here, Diamond Star hates employees like you the most! Well then, I'm done! - Yohan waved his hand and left. - That girl is... - Sumin looked in the direction Yumin had just left and pondered. _________________________________ Junho drove to wait for Yumin below the parking lot. - Chairman! Their agencies don't seem to be willing to let go of their artists! - Junho said his thoughts from a while ago. - I understand! My ideas are a bit possessive and absurd but we have a reason to do so, we also spent a lot so we can't stop because of the expectations of the fans! - What do we do next? - Junho observed Yumin's expression. - I still haven't used the main card! Help me contact reporter Kang, I have a favor to ask of her! - Yumin sighed softly. - Nae! Can't stop since that day! The war between plotters and dictators officially begins! _________________________________
