Speaking of scripts, Chen Chen will actually renew his contract with SBS TV station for the second season of "The Penthouse" tomorrow.
SBS TV station has been pressing for it since the New Year. It seems that it wants to renew the second season before the end of the first season. It is a little crazy with anxiety.
It is understandable that if the second season goes to another TV station, then I will be a free advertisement for adults in the first season, and everyone will have to worry about it.
However, Chen Chen’s procrastination is not because he wants to get any benefits from SBS TV station, he just wants to procrastinate for a while,
Give the actors some time to digest the popularity generated by the TV series, and give the actors and staff some time to rest.
The scenes are left untouched, there are not many adjustments to the cast, the staff have a tacit understanding of cooperation, and the script has been prepared for a long time. In other words, once the second season is confirmed to start, it will definitely be available in It will start broadcasting within a week, so there is no need to rush.
Chen Chen felt it was worth it to trade the life of SBS TV station for his own favor.
"Okay, I'm off work!" Shirley put away the documents on the table and came to Chen Chen with her small bag. "When do you plan to get off work?"
"I'll be late, at least finish reading the remaining scripts today." Chen Chen raised the script in his hand, "I have to do the work of digging for gold in shit every day, because there may really be gold hidden in it."
"Okay." Shirley rolled her eyes, returned to her work station and took out a folder, "Then I'll put this thing here for you, and you can hand it to Minister Ma when he comes over later."
"Minister Ma" Chen Chen was in a daze, "What did you tell the director of the Actors Department of Department C to do?"
The person who was finally selected by Chen Chen to be the head of the actor department of the C department was an executive who had resigned from MBC TV station. This person overwhelmingly won Chen's favor.
When the executives of the TV department of MBC TV station come to the C headquarters to take charge of the actor department, they should carry out dimension reduction attacks. The entertainment company and the TV station are definitely not on the same level.
As for the position of director who is responsible for front-line work and has a closer relationship with the actors, Chen Chen gave it to the one from KEYEAST, Bae Yongjun’s cousin.
He is in his forties and has pretty good abilities. When he was at KEYEAST, he was also responsible for front-line work. Now he has been promoted to the C headquarters. His future has become better and his workload has been greatly reduced.
After all, there are only three actors in the C department, and two of them have their own studios, so Director Pei doesn't have to worry about it at all.
"Tell him about the actor's contract renewal." Shirley rolled her eyes at Chen Chen, "You renewed the two older ones, and there is also a younger one. Didn't you forget about them?"
"I haven't forgotten. How could I forget Zhao Yixian, who took the heroine position in one of my TV series." Chen Chen replied: "I just don't think she will run away. I plan to wait until the contract is up before talking about renewing the contract."
"Let me remind you, your confidence can only be used in the field of idols, not the field of actors!" Shirley's expression instantly became serious, "In terms of actors, there are many companies that can compete with us. It is possible for our actors to leave.”
"It would be better to say that our C Department here only has reputation but no strength. The quantity and quality of actors are far behind the big guys."
"Suzy and Seohyun are happy to renew their contracts because they have received real benefits, and also because their status as actors is not high enough."
"According to the current development trend, if you maintain this attitude when renewing the contract next time, they may really run away. Do you understand?"
"..."
"Did you hear that clearly?" Seeing Chen Chen's indifferent look, Shirley suddenly became furious. She stretched out her hand and grabbed his cheek and pulled it, "Speak and give me a response!"
"I heard it all." Chen Chen took her hand and squeezed it, "Isn't it possible to run away? If so, just run away."
"When they ran away, I bought them a blackmail, saying that C Headquarters had run them so well and wanted to switch to someone else. It was heartless!" Chen Chen joked.
"I'm telling you something very serious, don't joke!" Shirley was a little anxious and her voice became sharp.
"You are indeed talking about serious things, but serious things are not necessarily important things, do you understand?" Chen Chen patted the back of her hand to comfort her, "It doesn't matter if the quality and quantity of actors from other companies are better than those from C. Yes, is the competition in film and television about real actors fighting offline?”
"A company with a strong cast can at most make it easier to recruit new actors, and it is much easier to find resources and support."
"But even so, who do you think is better between these companies and C Headquarters in cultivating new actors?" Chen Chen ended with a question.
"..."
Shirley frowned cutely and thought for a while, then left work without saying a word, obviously thinking very clearly.
Actors with high status don't need to look at the company's eyes. On the contrary, the company may look at them.
The connection between that kind of person and the company is no longer that big. Wherever you go, your name and face are your signature, and no one cares about who the company behind you is.
When an actor of this level competes for a role, it is difficult for the company to exert its efforts, because the work to be starred in must be a high-standard production, and the role to be starred must also be of a very important level.
An important role in a big production. This is not something that can be obtained in South Korea just by relying on the power behind it. At least the real material cannot be ignored.
But for young actors with low status who still need to rely on the company to develop themselves, C Department is the perfect company.
You are willing to provide resources to young actors and your own resources are first-class. What can you say? What else can you say if you don’t quickly find a way to become an employee? !
……
"Hello, President, I'm here to get the contract renewal documents of actor Zhao Yixian."
Not long after, Minister Ma came to the president's office and greeted Chen Chen respectfully.
Minister Ma’s name is Ma Zhangchang. He is a rather round man with a slightly bald head and a round face with black-rimmed glasses. He fits well with everyone’s stereotype of middle-aged men.
"Well, here it is." Chen Chen did not put on any airs and handed the document to him humbly. He asked by the way, "It's been a few days since Minister Ma took office. Is there anything you're not used to here?"< br>
"Yes." Ma Zhangzhang pulled up his chair and sat down. "There are too few people, not even one-fifth of the number of people when I was in the stage, which makes me very uncomfortable."
"Staff or actors?" Chen Chen asked more clearly.
"They are all few. There are only three actors in the company, which is a bit too few, and there are also few staff responsible for various tasks." Ma Zhangzhang glanced at the scripts piled on the ground, "At least there must be a dedicated person in charge of screening scripts. Even if I can’t make the final decision but I have to remove the garbage before delivering it to you.”
"I don't have to deal with the script for the time being, at least I don't have to ask someone to help me with the screening work." Chen Chen waved his hand, "I have my own plan."
"Okay."
Ma Benchang nodded without saying a word. "Except for this matter, Minister Ma can handle the rest as he pleases." Chen Chen stamped his authority with his official seal, "Although the title is the head of the actors department, he is exercising the power of the boss of the film and television department. I think this You know it.”
"Just think of me as a consultant to the film and television department. I'm usually useless. If something happens, pull me out to solve the problem."
"Of course, I'm also the president. You can also talk to me about company-level matters." Chen Chen's attitude was gentle. "For example, if you have any news you want to know, the future development direction of the film and television department, etc., you can do it." .”
"Is it okay to sign actors and train new actors?" Ma Zhangzhang asked: "I want to add some actors to the company."
"Yes, but in the next three years you need to report the candidates you like to me for final approval. I won't care about it after three years." Chen Chen made a somewhat lame excuse, "I also have some concerns about actors. As required, you need to work together for a few years to figure out my preferences, so that we can prescribe the right medicine. ”
"This is my company after all, and the boss's preferences are a very important criterion." Chen Chen added.
"It's a bit strange, but understandable." Ma Zhangzhang frowned but quickly relaxed, "But I think it is this strangeness that has made you the most successful entertainment company boss in recent years, so I will respect And accept your ideas ”
"Thank you for your understanding. I have finished what I want to say." Chen Chen pointed at him with his chin, "The next step is your time. Do you have anything to ask?"
"Why don't we have a script in hand?" Ma Zhangzhang asked politely: "Given the performance of C Department in film and television, we are only in a healthy state if we have at least one excellent script in hand that can be put into use at any time."
"Yes, but the script is still being changed and has not been put into storage for the time being." Chen Chen replied: "In addition to the script that is being changed, there is also a script that will be adapted from the comic. This is also in progress and needs to wait. Wait.”
The latest chapter of this novel was first published on 6@9书#. Please go to Liujiu Book Bar to read it!
"Then it's nothing." Ma Zhangzhang breathed a sigh of relief, "I thought that C headquarters was purely relying on the sky for a living, but I didn't expect it to be so profound. It is worthy of being the golden sign of C headquarters!"
"That's not the case." Chen Chen couldn't help but smile, "It's enough to rely on God to eat once or twice, how can I continue to eat until now."
"That's what you said." Ma Zhangzhang suddenly lowered his voice and asked: "Is "Squid Game" that has been filming for more than a year a real project?"
"Uh" Chen Chen was stunned for a moment, then laughed out loud, "Hahaha, it's really strange. Even if Minister Ma doesn't believe in C Department, he should believe in actor Li Zhengzai. Why would you ask such a question?!"
< br>
"Because a TV series that has been filmed for a year and is still being filmed is quite exaggerated in South Korea. It is generally considered to be too inefficient or the project is cut in half." Ma Zhangzhang said with a bitter smile: "But you are laughing like this, I guess I Wrong guess, it does exist. ”
"There is nothing we can do about the epidemic, otherwise it would have been released long ago." Chen Chen happily blamed all problems on the epidemic. "Even C headquarters and Netflix want to push forward, but in this kind of world-wide epidemic In the face of a natural disaster, we are not enough to be tied together.”
"If you are unlucky, there is nothing you can do." Ma Zhangzhang nodded, "As long as this TV series can be successful in the end, it doesn't matter if the process is bumpy."
"Don't worry." Chen Chen said cheerfully: "Its success will exceed your imagination."
……
Red Velvet is coming back, Integrate is preparing to come back, Shirley is busy with work, Chen Chen has read the script and is looking at the building. Everyone has a bright future.
"OK, that's it."
With a wave of Chen Chen's hand, a building was officially acquired.
The location is far away from the center of Seoul, so even though it has the same number of floors as the C headquarters building, the price is much cheaper.
In the future, it will be used as the building of the S branch, and all internet celebrities and anchors will be transferred there.
To be honest, if South Korea wasn't all villages except Seoul, Chen Chen would have wanted to throw the anchors' buildings further away, where they could be cheaper.
Anyway, as long as those people have an Internet connection and a large space, it is enough, and they don’t need anything else.
But the building Chen Chen wanted to prepare for the trainees was difficult to find, and the building on the other side was about to be finalized, and there was no news here.
It's normal. The building where the main trainees stay must be close enough to Headquarters C. If it's far away, it won't make sense.
It was really difficult to find such a building in the capital area where land was at a premium, so Chen Chen couldn't help but want to set his sights on other entertainment companies.
For example, the FNC building is very close and you can use it if you bring it over. I really want it
Then there is the Cube Entertainment building, which is also very close to the C headquarters, but this is something that cannot be thought of, at least Chen Chen cannot think of it now.
Alas, just take your time and look for it. There's no point in rushing for this kind of thing. It's better to go back to the company to put the documents first.
"Hey Yigu, who is this?!"
Chen Chen seemed to have seen an extraordinary person in the C headquarters building, and he quickly rubbed his eyes a few times to reconfirm.
"It's me, Oppa, the rapper Yongzhi from C Division." Li Yongzhi pointed at himself and shouted in a loud voice, "I, Li Yongzhi, have you forgotten who I am?!"
"I haven't forgotten, I'm just not used to you appearing in the C headquarters building." Chen Chen asked curiously: "After completing the C headquarters artist training, didn't you almost stop coming? Why are you here today?"
< br>
"Oh Oppa~" Li Yongzhi said aggrievedly: "I come to the company very often, but you usually can't see me!"
"Why can't I see you when you come to the company so often? Who do you come to the company to find?" Chen Chen suddenly became more curious.
"I usually only have three things to do when I come to the company." Li Yongzhi counted his fingers for Chen Chen, "The first is to play with You Zhen, the second is to play with Jaejae Unnie, and the third is to report to Hora Unnie. The next trip. There is a special situation recently, that is, I play with Xiaojuan occasionally. ”
Three things are said about four people, but most of them are playmates. This may be Li Yongzhi. The trajectory of his life was changed by Chen Chen, but his character did not waver even a little bit.
"Holla is your supervisor?"
Chen Chen was very surprised. He didn't expect that Ha La was in charge of such a living treasure.
"Yes." Li Yongzhi replied: "Horaoni helps me with all my advertising resources. I usually only turn to her if I need anything."
"Okay, you both did a good job." Chen Chen smacked his lips, "But why are you here today? Yoo-jin is preparing to come back and has no time to play with you. Jaejae and Ha-la have been transferred away to film the show. You No one can be found.”
"Really?" Li Yongzhi was stunned for two seconds, and then handed the thing in his hand to Chen Chen, "Then leave it to Oppa. Senior Liu Zaishi is going to take me on a new show. This is the relevant information and my personal report. .”
"Humph, indeed, you can do the same to me." Chen Chen was immediately happy, "Go and play, come back and write me your experience after playing, more than 5,000 words! I want to see your understanding of the program!"
