"I noticed a question for you, Chen Chen, why don't you just socialize?"
At the end of the year, when everyone was extremely busy, Chen Chen went on a date. He thought it would be a good trick that would be praised, but he was tortured by his girlfriend's soul as soon as they met.
"Ahem, I really don't need to socialize." Chen Chen led Pei Zhuxuan and walked slowly along the street. "Your boyfriend is in a special situation, so socializing is useless."
"Why is it useless?" Pei Zhuxuan was in a good mood and raised the hands of the two together. "The bigger the boss, the more social activities. In theory, people like you should leave the front-line work and only socialize. That’s it.”
"Well, there are indeed not many bosses who insist on staying on the front line after the company becomes big, but it is a truly big company." Chen Chen said very heart-wrenching words, "As far as the strength of entertainment companies such as the Korean entertainment industry, in South Korea there are only It’s worthy of being called a small and medium-sized enterprise, let alone an ant-level existence when it comes to powerful players.”
"What you say or see on TV are things that the real giants in this world may show, and they are thousands of miles away from me."
"Going back to the circle of South Korean entertainment companies, don't we all stay on the front line to deal with problems?" Chen Chen suddenly thought of Boss Waiji and laughed out loud, "Look at President Waijiliang, he said he had no choice but to leave. Stay here for a while.”
"Why are you mentioning him all of a sudden?!" Pei Zhuxuan covered her mouth and laughed together, "You are different from him!"
"I'm just giving an example of a president who works on the front line, and his activities have reached the point where he might be sent to prison." Chen Chen could only sigh with emotion, "Fortunately, I run fast."
"When did you plan to leave Waiji?" Pei Zhuxuan was a little curious, her big eyes staring at her boyfriend's expression.
"Since I joined Waiji." Chen Chen smiled at her, "Do you still remember my famous contract in the industry? Everyone generally thinks that it means I have great confidence in myself, but this is not the case in fact."
"Actually," Chen Chen breathed out softly, "that's my determination to leave Waiji rather than work for nothing for several years."
"That's it."
Naturally, Pei Zhuxuan will not forget Chen Chen's initial contract. That was one of the important signs of Chen Chen in her heart in the early days, as a young man who worked for free.
"But I found that Sulli is actually very busy." Pei Zhuxuan curled her lips and brought the topic back to the beginning, "Why does she need to socialize?"
"The newly appointed representative director must not take advantage of the end of the year when everyone is socializing to show off his identity?" Chen Chen replied: "Your teacher Li Xiuman's nephew also does this, but his timeline is earlier. .”
"Ha, but he hasn't met you yet! You don't know him at all!"
Pei Zhuxuan suddenly spoke, even wanting to laugh.
It’s quite interesting that when socializing in the Korean entertainment industry, I skip the C headquarters.
"You can't blame others." Chen Chen reiterated with a smile, "I repeat it again, your boyfriend and I are special in the social rules of the Korean entertainment industry."
"What's special?" Pei Zhuxuan asked.
"Yeah" Chen Chen thought for a while and replied: "Specially, all I can talk to is business and not social interaction. I am the most autistic president of an entertainment company in the industry."
"Are they the other two shareholders of the C headquarters?" Pei Zhuxuan asked.
"Yes, Mouyin and Black Cat are very exaggerated monsters even if they are placed on the world battlefield, so if I want C headquarters to climb up, I don't need to expand my circle a little bit to embrace the lap of the people above." Chen Chen His words sounded a little irritating, "As long as you apply to the two big brothers and write a few reports, you will be able to move up naturally."
"BigHit, for example, is engaged in large-scale projects with consortiums, cooperates with foreign language universities in South Korea, and is actively establishing branches around the world. This kind of operation does not require the C headquarters at all."
"C Headquarters is originally walking a road to the sky. My various operations are just to make the roadside more beautiful scenery when walking."
"Of course, my operation can also be regarded as my struggle against the two big brothers."
"If you just keep moving forward without doing anything with your eyes closed, you will definitely become their puppet in the end. I have to achieve results in the entertainment industry so that C Headquarters can be recognized as an entertainment company."
"But this is just my personal will. Others cannot see my personal will."
"In their eyes, the C headquarters communicates with the big brothers with the left hand, and chats with the Blue House with the right hand. This entertainment company has smooth communication in South Korea." Chen Chen glanced at Pei Zhuhyun, "Do you think I have any need to socialize? ?”
"Cheong Wa Dae?" Pei Zhuxuan keenly caught this dangerous word, "How can C Headquarters be related to Cheong Wa Dae?"
"When it gets bigger, it will naturally become relevant." Chen Chen spread his hands, "C Headquarters can at least provide thousands of jobs to South Koreans. If Blue House can keep silent, then it doesn't deserve to be called the South Korean government."
"Although I often use Cheong Wa Dae to represent politics when I speak, Cheong Wa Dae and politics are two different things." Chen Chen added with a smile: "It's not like I got involved with Cheong Wa Dae and got into politics. How about delivering food to Cheong Wa Dae?" The vegetable farmer should be a very important political figure, because without him, even the president would be hungry!”
"Hiss~ There are thousands of jobs in C headquarters?!" Pei Zhuxuan didn't care about his analogy. Her eyes widened when she heard the number of people, "You have so many employees?!"
"The number of people in entertainment industry projects is the number of people in normal entertainment companies. The main reason is that the anchors are too big." Chen Chen replied: "Unconsciously, there are many anchors, and there are anchors on various live broadcast platforms. , there are even more anchors, management, anchor support staff, and employees responsible for communicating with various platforms.”
"Can the anchor department still make money with so many employees?" Pei Zhuhyun muttered in a low voice.
"Of course it can, and it's especially good!" Chen Chen couldn't help but smacked his lips, "The revenue generated by the anchor department is terrifyingly large, and the audience's willingness to give money to the anchor is simply ridiculously high in my opinion."
< br>
"But apart from this, it is normal for the anchor department to have high income."
"To put it simply, the total number of business orders received by other departments in the C department is only one-tenth of that of the anchor department." Chen Chen himself felt that it was an exaggeration, "At this level of intensity, even if the quality of business orders is compared to other The department is not as good as it is, but the benefits must be dizzying.”
It is too easy for anchors to receive business orders and complete business orders. In addition, there are a large number of self-supported anchors and the company's resources are abundant. The C headquarters can easily get a lot of money.
What is the purest form of winning by quantity? This is it!
"What an exaggeration."
Bae Zhuhyun couldn't help but sigh.
"Exaggeration, but the anchor department will no longer be directly under the C Department." Chen Chen changed from holding hands to holding his girlfriend in his arms. "The S Division established by Shirley will take away the anchor department."
"What's the difference?" Pei Zhuxuan rolled her eyes, "A split without changing the office location is meaningless at all!"
"Yes, you reminded me." Chen Chen shook his girlfriend's body, "Do you think I should take advantage of the current stable housing prices to build a building? Maybe I will split up more projects in the future, and maybe There will be new departments and even complete entertainment companies coming directly.”
"If you want to buy real estate, now is really a good time. Housing prices have been relatively stable throughout this year. You will definitely not lose money if you buy it. But for things like real estate..." Pei Zhuxuan was having a hard time making a decision and simply asked the question to Chen Chen, " You decide for yourself, buy whatever you want.”
If you want to buy it, Chen Chen really wants to buy it.
He has witnessed the stability of housing prices in South Korea's capital area in 2020, and he knows very well whether he can buy it.
But Chen Chen knew more than that. He also knew that housing prices in South Korea would definitely rise in the future, and they would rise very fiercely. It's not that "before" Mr. Chen was free enough to be in the mood to pay attention to the rise and fall of housing prices in the country at the southern tip of the Korean Peninsula, it was "before" that Chen Chen paid a little attention to the affairs of South Korea's president surnamed Moon.
I’m not very clear about what I paid attention to, but I just remember a comment about President Moon’s failure to achieve what he said was the control of housing prices during his term in office.
What does it mean to fail to control housing prices? Doesn’t that mean that housing prices are still rising rapidly? !
Since it hasn’t risen yet, it will definitely rise in the future! It is a wise move to buy assets now that will increase in price later, both from an investment perspective and from a self-development perspective.
"Buy!" Chen Chen gritted his teeth, "Buy two buildings, and I will give you one to set up an I branch!"
Pei Zhuxuan did not refuse, but just asked: "What is the I branch used for?"
"I don't know, I don't know what it can do." Of course Chen Chen didn't know either, "How about you think about it yourself, and I will arrange a task for you to do whatever you want."
"I don't have anything I want to do, otherwise I'd better think about what your C headquarters is lacking." Pei Zhuxuan bit her finger and thought for a while, "Training trainees? C headquarters doesn't have any trainees now. Find a place to start raising trainees. It will always be used in the future.”
"Okay, this is a good idea!" Chen Chen suddenly became excited, "C Division will train its own trainees sooner or later, let I Division take on this function! I hope all the trainees in I Division will be like Irene The five-A trainee! ”
"Then when do you plan to start recruiting trainees?" Pei Zhuxuan was also a little excited and asked.
"The I branch will be built and about to be put into use." Chen Chen settled casually. This problem is not difficult. "If the C branch recruits trainees, we are not afraid that no one will come, and we are not afraid that we will not be able to choose good ones from so many people." Miaozi, so just stick to the time when the I branch building can be put into use when the trainees come, there are not so many other time requirements.”
"Then there is only one last question left for you to face now." Pei Zhuxuan said seriously: "Do you have money?"
"I have money. It's definitely not enough to just buy two decent buildings, but it will be enough if I do some operations." Chen Chen suddenly felt heartbroken as he spoke, "I could even be richer if I came out with you earlier to roll over the road. ! Headquarters C can pay a lot less tax by spending money on things, but now Cheong Wa Dae is cheaper! ”
"You didn't ask me out earlier." Pei Zhuxuan said dissatisfied: "No wonder me."
"Haha, you go to the stupid company every day. I thought you had temporary programs at the end of the year. Who knew you didn't have any?" Chen Chen snorted, "Is this ridiculous? Even if the team doesn't have one, at least the small team does. There should be a quota, you have done well!”
"Nothing means nothing."
Pei Zhuxuan just replied.
"That's because the stupid company doesn't want you to appear in front of the public." Chen Chen saw clearly. "Every time you show up during this period, you are slapping the stupid person in the face and reminding the public that something disgraceful has happened within the company." Things.”
"It doesn't matter, it's fine no matter what. Anyway, everyone is quite free recently." Pei Zhuxuan raised her head and looked at her boyfriend, "Aren't you rich? Why don't you treat us to dinner? I'll bring all my sisters."
"Okay, I haven't seen them for a long time." Chen Chen admitted, "If you can call them out, call them all out."
……
"Wow, long time no see Oppa!"
“Hello Oppa!”
"..."
Not long after, all members of Red Velvet gathered in the steaming hot pot private room.
"It's been a long time indeed." Chen Chen didn't have the time to say hello, and the sound of the hot pot making him upset, "Sit down first, we'll talk after we finish eating."
"..."
It would take a while to get full of hot pot, but as an idol, I couldn't eat much, so Chen Chen and Jiang Seulqi were the only ones engrossed in eating soon.
"Oppa." Park Xiurong stood up to eat while staring at Chen Chen with gossipy eyes, "Do you know who the New Year's couple of Club D is?"
Jiuyi is still so interested in love, nothing has changed.
"Of course I know." Chen Chen put away his chopsticks and wiped his mouth, "The portions are generous for both men and women, and the melon is very sweet."
"Tell us!"
In an instant, several pairs of eyes were fixed on Chen Chen.
"I spent a lot of money to buy it from D agency, and you just let me leak it out?" Chen Chen ate the watermelon slowly, "The price, what's the price?!"
Chen Chen pays a lot of protection money to D Society every year to suppress his affairs with Pei Zhuxuan. Of course, he bought the news that comes with D Society at the end of the year!
"Let me rub your shoulders!" Pu Xiurong quickly ran to Chen Chen's back and started massaging him, "I have something to do, Oppa can just tell me."
"Yeah!" Sun Shengwan slapped the table and stood up, "I can also press Oppa's shoulders. Your behavior of eating alone is really bad!"
"You can, but you haven't done it now." Park Soo-young didn't suffer at all and said provocatively: "We'll find out when you line up to press Oppa's shoulders!"
"Come on, Oppa, tell me first, tell me only one person."
Pu Xiurong said and put his ear to Chen Chen's mouth.
"Yes"
Chen Chen moved his mouth twice and spit out two names.
"Oh Momo!" Pu Xiurong was so scared that she covered her mouth and her eyes turned into crescent moons. "Is it them?! Then this melon is really big and sweet, it's so sweet!"
"What what what?!"
Now Pei Zhuxuan couldn't bear it anymore and shook Chen Chen's arm to ask him to speak out.
"Xiurong, tell me."
Chen Chen handed this job over to Jiu Yi and started eating again.
"Okay Oppa." Park Soo-young cleared her throat, and then stood on the stool carefully, "Ahem, listen up, D agency's big picks for 2021 are Hyun Bin and Son Ye-jin!"
< br>
It has little impact on Chen Chen and C Headquarters, but it is really a very important event in the Korean entertainment industry.
