"Why can "AllNight" be circulated on the bulletin board, and Universal secretly bought the data?"
"I didn't expect, I didn't expect, you, a thick-eyed guy like Universal, would start doing this kind of thing! ”
One week after the release of "All Night", it suddenly flew to the top 70 of the Billboard Hot 100 and is still rising. Chen Chen can only suspect that Universal Music has tampered with it to save face. Otherwise this is unscientific.
So the sight of Mr. Chen, shirtless and shouting on the sofa, was fully seen by his girlfriend.
“Watch the news, brother, why don’t you know the things I know?”
While Pei Zhuxuan was arranging her hair, she turned around and made a mocking sound, which made Chen Chen feel even more ashamed.
“Even you know?!” Chen Chen’s eyes suddenly widened and he asked: “Then tell me why?!”
“It was used at an overseas music festival. I watched "AllNight" for a while, and then on TikTok The community has become popular." Pei Zhuxuan skillfully explained the content of the marketing account he received this morning, "It is similar to the way your song "Old Town Road" became popular, and it is all related to TikTok, but this time "All Night" It’s just a little bit worse.”
"So that's the case, then I can understand it." Chen Chensong said in a half-dead tone as he lay back on the sofa, ""All Night" is indeed suitable for disco dancing at music festivals. Those foreigners can play by themselves. It's good to be on the bulletin board "Often."
"It's normal to be good. The other people's teeth are almost broken, you know?" Pei Zhuxuan tied up her hair and kicked Chen Chen to make room for herself on the sofa. "If only the bulletin board were so good they would go up in the morning!"
"Okay, let's talk about you first. Why are you here again?"
Chen Chen said sideways.
“You ate what I made and pushed me down on the sofa and bullied me, and now you ask me why I am here?” Pei Zhuhyun spat at him, “Bah, you scumbag!”< br>
“I just didn’t think you would have this time.” Chen Chen held his girlfriend’s soft little He pinched his calf twice, "Isn't everyone very busy at this time? You should be even busier, right?"
"Generally, after being busy for a while, you suddenly feel free." Pei Zhuhyun replied : "I don't know why, there is no new news coming yet."
"Well" Chen Chen thought for a while and asked: "Do you think it is possible that your return time will change?"
"There is a possibility." Pei Zhuxuan was not so sure, "The time mentioned before is all It's internal news. The company has never disclosed the information about our return."
"But why do you ask?" Pei Zhuxuan asked curiously.
"I feel like this is the only reason why you can suddenly relax." Chen Chen himself also made a guess, "I will transfer you from returning at the end of the year to returning after the family concert. This may be more beneficial to the company. Bigger."
"Oh, I understand." Pei Zhuxuan suddenly realized, "It's still your problem."
"It's my problem again. I'm on the front line at home and at the company. How can it be me?" Chen Chen's aggrieved tone made him want to cry. "People have to speak according to their conscience, Pei Zhuxuan, you really can't blame me!"
“Who is to blame for the poor promotion of the new group? The company is Because of this, Pei Zhuxuan snorted, "It really has nothing to do with you, right?" To the extent that it affected the announcement of their new group, this cannot be avoided.
"Okay, that is indeed my problem." Chen Chen took the initiative to drag others into the water, "But the root cause of everything is that the stupid company itself is not clean, and it is self-inflicted."
" It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter." Pei Zhuxuan poked Chen Chen's waist with his foot, "What have you been busy with recently?"
"What do you think I'm busy with?" Chen Chen asked kindly, "Has your huge intelligence network provided you with any new information?"
"I heard that you are busy with (G)I- What about DLE?" Pei Zhuxuan said: "Everyone in the industry seems to be talking about (G) You will be responsible for I-DLE’s next return.”
“The marketing account you read this time is not so professional. The message is wrong in a very important way.” Chen Chen shook his finger, “Put this paragraph aside. The correct answer is to change the subject of the sentence from me to C department, before I did put some thought into (G)I-DLE in the past two days, but it was the C department, not me, who was responsible for the comeback.”
“I knew it would be like this,” Bae Zhuhyun said calmly. If the account is not written like this, how can there be traffic? After all, you are responsible for it? The return and the C headquarters' return are two completely different things."
"And even the return of Integrate was left to the Golden Era couple. How could you possibly do this to (G)I yourself? -DLE getting started?”
"But what is the purpose of doing this?" Pei Zhuxuan asked curiously: "C headquarters is bored?"
"C headquarters has a lot of work to do every day, so there is no chance of boredom. " Chen Chen shook his head and explained: "The main reason is to destroy Boss Hong's aloofness. Let him experience what it feels like to get help from C Headquarters, instead of letting him continue to operate Cube Entertainment as an independent entity."
"You are so weird, you allow people to maintain independent operations. You have so much ability and you want people to rely on you, it’s too demanding,” Bae Joo Hyun complained.
“That’s why I need to work slowly to win over people’s hearts.” Chen Chen rolled his eyes, “If I caught a subsidiary like Dahei and sucked it up directly, I wouldn’t have so many things to do. Do it.”
“Okay, okay, don’t talk about this. Let's watch TV." Pei Zhuxuan picked up the TV remote control with interest, "Actually, I was watching "The Penthouse" recently. I was very happy after losing my mind. I felt that all the bad vibes accumulated in me after a day of work were released. Out!”
"But the ratings of "The Penthouse" seem to be declining. Now they are only fifteen." Bae Zhuhyun said with a hint of pity: "At the beginning, it was more than twenty!"
"Then It’s not like you don’t know how it came to be more than 20 o’clock, as long as It’s good that the ratings are dropping slower and slower now.” Chen Chen doesn’t feel it’s a pity at all. “The slow drop shows that we are attracting new viewers faster than those who join in the fun are leaving. This is actually good. A sign.”
“Because it can increase income. There is an endless stream of people watching, but the only ones who will reduce their viewing are those at the beginning, and they will come to an end. "
"When all those watching are gone, "The Penthouse" will take over. I have achieved the results I should have achieved.”
"It's definitely not bad." Chen Chen is very optimistic about the future of this TV series. "Even though the script of "The Penthouse" may make some people feel unsatisfied, the sincerity of the production team and the performances of the actors have made it almost perfect." The best degree.”
"..."
Bae Zhuhyun didn't comment on "The Penthouse" because she had lost her mind and started enjoying it.
Chen Chen was not interested in this TV series. He played on his mobile phone for a while and then went to cook.
……
“Integrate is qualified to hold concerts.”
Pei Zhuxuan carefully scraped away the fat floating on the surface of his soup with a spoon, and asked Chen Chen, who was playing with his mobile phone at his place.
"The number of songs is enough." Chen Chen put down his phone immediately after hearing this, but there was a lot of hesitation on his expression, "But President Jin never mentioned this to me. He should have Other ideas.”
“Yes. There is no possibility." Pei Zhuxuan hypothesized, "President Jin is waiting for you to mention it. He thinks that such a big matter must be decided by you."
"..."
Chen Chen. Silent, he realized that this possibility was not small at all.
Concerts are not just fun. For smaller entertainment companies, they are major events where half the company's life is on the line. Large companies must be cautious when hosting concerts for their artists. Diamond Entertainment is a lesson learned from the past, so Golden Age dare not take the initiative to mention it. There is a reason.
"I'll ask President Jin to come over tomorrow to discuss it." Chen Chen breathed out, "Three albums plus the things I made before my debut are more than enough to hold a concert."
"Yeah, there's so much that can't be used up." Bae Zhuhyun found it a bit funny, but she felt a little embarrassed for her boyfriend when this happened to him, so she couldn't laugh out loud. "I think other people may also be curious about why Integrate never holds concerts, but they definitely can't think of it." It was a mistake made by the boss not communicating with the operation team in time!" "Stop talking, I have a headache." Chen Chen's face was wrinkled, "I feel like I have lost 100 million now."
“It’s out of the way, Although your concert is not held, the girls of Integrate don’t have any endorsements.” Bae Zhuhyun teased: “Normally, idols can stay on the front line for more than a year since their debut, and they will have a few endorsements.”< br>
"This is also a problem." Chen Chen won't let up easily when talking about endorsements, "But this problem can be discussed later. After all, Integrate's serious English single has not been released yet. Let's release it and see the effect. Let’s talk.”
“Huh?” Bae Zhu Hyunshen Se Yizheng asked: "Are you very confident about Integrate's English single? Do you think it can help Integrate become famous in the European and American markets?"
Chen Chen's meaning is too obvious, even if Pei Zhuhyun is in this regard You don't have to be very good at it to understand what he means.
"Although I know it's useless in theory, I don't understand why I always want to wait so long." Chen Chen spread his hands and replied: "But I just feel that it would be better this way. ."
"Then just wait." Pei Zhuxuan never disappoints, "Your feelings are always accurate."
"Perhaps." Pei Zhuxuan guessed: "Is it because you simply want to stand higher in the European and American markets to pick more delicious fruits to eat?"
"Baby, this idea is what I said. "It's a theory." Chen Chen threw away his phone and picked up his chopsticks to enjoy the food. "It sounds reasonable, right?"
"The brand chooses a certain artist. The spokesperson is interested in the artist’s presence in the area Influence, the ultimate goal is to promote their products in that region.”
“Then the question is, when other brands find Integrate, they must use their influence to promote products in South Korea and China. The popularity we have raised in Europe and the United States is of no use at all.”
“People can choose better spokespersons in their own territory, or simply don’t have any spokespersons.”
"So I say that this time the theory conflicts with my feelings very much." Chen Chen took a piece of food and put it in his mouth, "It made me a little confused."
"Uh" Pei Zhuxuan My head was itching, and I felt like I was growing a brain, "That's what it sounds like," But fame must be useful, right?”
“It’s useful. It will allow you to do better in the European and American markets and then return to South Korea to brag about yourself. I can’t think of anything else to do besides this.” There’s something I’ve always wanted to complain about, “ Aren’t U.S. dollars and Korean won both money? Why do I always feel that earning U.S. dollars is more expensive than earning Korean won? Your products are sold at the same price everywhere, and you can save a few cents if you are closer.”
“This is an idea that only you, President Chen Da, can have. Other entertainment You can’t imagine the obsession that the president of the company has over there, not to mention that you have a Chinese market that other people can’t see or touch.”
Pei Zhuxuan had finished eating and left the food to himself. Put the food next to your boyfriend and wait for him to process it.
"I'll cut some fruit and bring it over. What do you want to eat?"
The topic is quite interesting, but Pei Zhuhyun doesn't want to talk about it anymore.
"No need to cut it, just bring me a whole one." Chen Chen suddenly said something a little old-fashioned, "The weather is dry and things are dry, eating more fruits can supplement vitamins."
Pei Zhuxuan She didn't listen to him and still cut the fruit before delivering it.
“Eat.”
Pei Zhuxuan pushed the plate towards Chen Chen.
“…”
Chen Chen ate and added something after eating.
“Cut fruits are more convenient to eat.”
Sounds cheap.
......
......
"Oppa~"
Tian Xiaojuan happened to see Chen Chen when she came to the C headquarters for a meeting and shouted out.
"Yes." Chen Chen turned around and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Can I take a moment of your time to chat?" The smile on Tian Xiaojuan's face was a little embarrassed, "It will be fine soon. My question is very simple."
"Okay, come with me. ”
Chen Chen agreed readily, and he had no intention of refusing.
Finding a corner at random, Chen Chen planned to start a conversation here.
Somewhat careless, but obviously no one cares.
"That's what Oppa is like." Tian Xiaojuan swallowed her saliva and said, "I'm a little uncomfortable with the role I played in this comeback."
"Hey~ This is a bit weird." Chen Chen laughed. Then he asked, "Weren't you qualified to speak in the comeback plan before? Why are you not used to being here in C headquarters? "
"When I was at Cube Entertainment, I didn't have such a big say, and I had to fight for a long time to do anything I wanted to do." The expression on Tian Xiaojuan's face became even more embarrassing, "The people here in C headquarters. It’s so easy to talk, I’m not used to it.”
Oh boy, it turns out there is such an unaccustomed method!
But
"The more opinions that are adopted in the return plan, the more responsibility you have for this plan."
"Xiaojuan, are you scared?"
Chen Chen's The voice was very soft, but Tian Xiaojuan's body trembled suddenly.
Planning is so easy to do. Any decision in it is related to the fate of everyone in the entire group. It is inherently a stressful job.
In the past, Tian Xiaojuan was responsible for about 10% of the responsibility at Cube Entertainment, but when she came to C Headquarters, the proportion suddenly increased to 50%. The change was a bit too big.
But Chen Chen hopes that she can hold on, so that she can grow faster and pay less.
Tian Xiaojuan's growth has been watched by others. Everyone knows that her growth rate is exaggerated, but who can say for sure that Xu Suizhen's departure is not one of the costs of Tian Xiaojuan's growth.
“Understand that this is a test I have set for you. You must have the determination to carry the members on your shoulders in order to better lead the members forward.”
“I believe in you. We will win.”
