The Peninsula chaebol started by rescuing Samsung's little princess.

Chapter 101 A Photo of Flowers in Full Bloom

The Seoul World Cup Stadium, located in Mapo-gu, Seoul, was originally built on the Korean Peninsula for the 2002 World Cup and has a capacity of 67000 people.

But at this moment, there were only a handful of people, around thirty, in the huge football field.

These people aren't here to play football, they're here to film the football babes.

A group of beautiful women, dressed in jerseys of the Great Cold Kingdom, with their long legs dazzling the eye, posed in various ways under the sun.

Just like any filming location, some people are extremely busy, while others are extremely idle.

Park Seon-young—or rather, Park Hyo-min, who had already given herself a stage name—was sitting in the shade by the sidelines, watching the busy crowd, and sighed boredly, "How much longer do we have to wait?"

A round-faced girl with the same hairstyle as Park Hyo-min sat on the steps, swinging her legs: "That depends on when the seniors finish filming! I estimate it'll be another hour or so!"

The girl's voice was both sweet and delicate, which had a unique charm.

"That long?"

"Of course! Those senior artists have very valuable time, unlike us trainees who haven't even debuted yet, we're practically worthless!"

At this moment, a tall, thin girl next to her explained.

"I feel great. I'm exhausted from practicing all the time, so I'll just take it easy today!"

Hearing the conversation between the two people next to her, Park Hyomin couldn't help but say, "Hyuna, Yoona, I'm so envious of you. You've been trainees for several years already."

"I'm older than you guys, and I haven't even been a trainee for a single day!"

The more confident Park Hyomin was in the past, the more insecure she is now.

After signing with Mars Technology, Park Hyo-min quickly began filming.

Filming was not difficult, and it was almost over in just a few days.

During the filming process, she saw so many beautiful women that she realized that good looks were just a stepping stone into the entertainment industry.

Putting aside everything else, just look at these two people next to me: Lim Yoon-ah is a trainee at SM Entertainment, and Kim Faya is a trainee at JYP Entertainment. They are even at the very bottom of the food chain among the ten football babes, just like her.

The ten football babes signed by Mars.net this time can be roughly divided into three tiers:

The highest-ranking are undoubtedly the already famous stars, such as Jun Ji-hyun, Lee Hyori, Yoon Eun-hye, and Kim So-yeon.

Secondly, there are already established and somewhat famous celebrities, such as Kim Bo-kyung, Song Ji-hyo, and Han Seul-ye.

Finally, there were the three of them who were still newcomers to the industry.

In fact, this vote was rife with corruption from the start.

Many beauties who should have made it into the top ten, such as Kim Tae-hee, Song Hye-kyo, and Son Ye-jin, were suddenly dropped out of the top ten before the voting ended because their agencies failed to reach an agreement with Mars.net.

Therefore, in such a shoot, the seniors would naturally be filmed first, while the three of them would mostly sit on the sidelines and wait.

Over time, the three of them grew closer and closer, and now they are very good friends.

"Don't be discouraged, you're very talented. Once you finish filming this video, you'll definitely be noticed by an entertainment company!"

"Exactly! You should think of it this way: you're already filming with those senior artists before you've even become a trainee. Imagine what it would be like if you did become a trainee!"

The youngest member, Kim Hyun-ah, was the most lively, hugging Park Hyo-min and laughing loudly.

"Hyuna, stop teasing me!"

"Hehe, that's for sure! When unnie comes to JYP, we'll practice together!"

Kim HyunA's round face was beaming with a bright smile.

"Anywhere you go, don't come to SM, the competition is just too fierce!"

Meanwhile, Lin Run'e, standing to the side, had a bitter expression on her face.

The members of SM Entertainment's large girl group are still changing. The group recently underwent its second reorganization, and I heard there will be a third reorganization soon.

Her good friends Seo Hyun-jin and Lee Huan-hee were both eliminated this time and joined a local trainee, Kim Tae-yeon.

Kim Tae-yeon is incredibly talented; she consistently ranks first in the company's weekly evaluations.

She had heard of Kim Tae-yeon's fame before, but she always thought that she would debut as a solo singer. She never expected that she would join their group.

I heard that Injung unnie has been under so much pressure lately that she can't sleep well!

Hearing what her two good friends said made Park Hyo-min even more uneasy.

In her mind, these two women were both very beautiful and outstanding. If they were still worried about not being able to debut, how much more so was she?

"You three, come here right now!"

Just then, an assistant director suddenly ran over and waved to the three of them.

The three of them shuddered, thinking it was finally their turn to take pictures, and quickly dusted themselves off and ran towards the shooting location.

However, when they arrived, they found out that it wasn't a filming session at all, but rather someone coming to inspect the filming situation.

"Who's coming? He wants to come watch the filming, and the whole crew has to stop and wait for him? That's just too much!"

"Shh, keep your voice down!"

Upon hearing Park Hyomin's complaint, Kim Hyun-ah quickly gestured for her to lower her voice.

Despite her playful and mischievous nature, Kim Faya is, after all, half an insider and knows just how strict the hierarchy is here!

Soon, a group of people walked into the stadium tunnel.

The two leaders were Lee Ho-young, the client, and Oh Se-hoon, who had just been elected mayor of Seoul.

Watching Lee Ho-young chatting and laughing with the mayor, Park Hyo-min gained a new understanding of his influence.

Wu Shixun and Li Haorong shook hands with each of the "football babes" to express their gratitude.

Looking at these actresses, many of whom he could name, Li Haorong finally felt a sense of familiarity.

When Lee Ho-young approached Song Ji-hyo, he heard her whisper, "Thank you!"

Among these people, Song Ji-hyo had absolutely no advantages or background. The only reason she was selected was with Lee Ho-young's help; Song Ji-hyo couldn't think of any other possibility.

Although the filming itself wasn't very profitable, it was a rare opportunity for her to gain exposure, especially since she was currently out of work.

Indeed, Song Ji-hyo, who thought she was going to become a big star, suddenly found herself without any acting opportunities after filming "Jumong".

Li Haorong simply smiled at her, but didn't say anything more, and went to shake hands with the next person.

Looking at this man, Song Ji-hyo felt a lump in her throat for some reason.

Park Hyo-min was equally shocked.

When Li Haorong shook her hand, he smiled and said, "Keep it up!"

"Inside!"

Although it was only two words, Park Hyo-min was greatly encouraged.

"Mayor, there are so many beautiful women here, let's not waste this opportunity, shall we take a group photo?"

After shaking hands, Li Haorong smiled at Mayor Wu.

After being instructed by Lee Kun-hee, he actually began to come into contact with political figures.

With Samsung as his backer, Lee Ho-young easily established connections with major countries.

That's right, it's the most affectionate political party on the Korean Peninsula in later generations!

This is a conservative party that represents the interests of the financial elites. Although it has a bad reputation in China, there's nothing he can do; Li Haorong's class dictates that he can only go along with it.

The Seoul mayor who was elected in May is also from this party.

"Okay, then I'll benefit from your help this time!"

Mayor Wu was also very polite to Li Haorong.

Not to mention that Lee Ho-young is a rising star in the Korean internet industry, his status as the future son-in-law of Samsung Group is enough to make him highly regarded.

Moreover, Mayor Wu was personally introduced to Lee Ho-yong by Lee Kun-hee, which shows how much the old man valued this guy.

Soon after, Li Haorong and Mayor Wu stood in the middle, surrounded by ten beautifully dressed football babes.

At that moment, he understood Brother Long's happiness!

As the shutter clicked, time seemed to freeze at that moment.
