The C department did not do any work for the promotion of "The Penthouse Season 2", and SBS TV station took full responsibility, which made Chen Chen feel a little uncomfortable.
Is this still a TV station that has always been domineering? Is this still one of the biggest bosses in South Korean TV? Why has it become like this now? !
However, on the day "The Penthouse Season 2" was aired, Chen Chen understood that SBS TV station wanted to continue the third season as well, and those actions were all expressions.
"Then you renewed your contract with SBS?"
Pei Zhuhyun was lying on the sofa comfortably. After completing her return, she could finally take a rest.
"What can we do if we don't continue?" Chen Chen, who was using her as a human pillow on the sofa, got up and went to the table to get an apple to chew on. "The first and second seasons were spent at her place. In the third season, how can I go somewhere else?" I have good fruit to eat?”
"That's true." Pei Zhuxuan looked at the apple and felt a little itchy. When she heard Chen Chen chewing it, she became even more greedy. She couldn't help but pat her boyfriend's arm, "Give me a bite."
"Nibble."
Chen Chen turned the part he had chewed on to face her so that her small mouth could take a big bite.
So Pei Zhuhyun also started chewing.
"What you're going to do next is a winning solo, right?" Chen Chen casually chatted about the members.
"Well, it's already this time, and it's time for the company to give you a taste of the sweetness." Pei Zhuxuan swallowed the apple in her mouth and said, "Strictly speaking, the first contract is almost completed. It's okay if the company doesn't show off. Excessive.”
"So where did this idea of automatically renewing for three years after debuting in Sakura Country come from?" Chen Chen couldn't help scratching the back of his neck, "Why did it become the default contract option?"
"I don't know, that's the rule in the industry anyway." Pei Zhuxuan suddenly became curious, "Is there such a clause in the contract you gave Integrate?"
"No, I don't plan to let them debut in Sakura Country, nor do I plan to let them carry out any activities there." Chen Chen shook his head, "There is no need to waste energy in the entertainment market of Sakura Country, which is bigger than South Korea. The income there will increase." Maybe it’s better to just do some activities in China.”
"Then do you have any ideas?" Pei Zhuxuan asked.
"What do you think?" Chen Chen didn't react immediately.
"The idea of activating in China!" Pei Zhuxuan sat up and said excitedly: "Even if you can't make a big move, people will definitely not stop you from making small moves. After all, artists from other entertainment companies have precedents of crossing that wall."< br>
"We have no plans for the time being." Chen Chen replied: "Until the epidemic is over, we will still focus on fighting the epidemic. Only when we are completely stabilized can we all be active."
If it can reap the benefits of the period of rapid development after the epidemic in China was relaxed, Integrate's position in China will be stable, and there may be an opportunity to play as a whole in the future.
In terms of making money, the gains you can get from two months of activities in mainland China should be higher than that of squatting in South Korea for a year.
"But isn't the epidemic almost over?" Pei Zhuxuan said: "I saw the news over there, and it has basically cleared up."
"This is a problem for the whole world. Even if China is completely cleared, it will be useless, because only he himself has been cleared." Chen Chen sighed longly, "We can't close the country again, can we? This virus only needs you and the world If you come into contact, you will inevitably be taken advantage of, alas~~~”
"Is this a depression that requires such a long sigh to vent?" Pei Zhuxuan curled her lips, "You are always pessimistic about the epidemic."
"What do you think?"
Chen Chen wants to hear his girlfriend's opinion.
"Since China can achieve dynamic zeroing, other countries in the world should also be able to do it." Pei Zhuxuan thought a little naively, "It's just a matter of waiting a little longer, almost half a year. For entertainment companies, doing it half a year in advance Planning is normal, it can even be said to be a little late, right?”
"Yes or no." Chen Chen smiled and shook his head, "If everyone could clear the dynamics before interacting with the world, your statement would be fine, but this is impossible."
< br>
"We will never stop interacting with the world, so this risk will always exist."
"In addition, not every country is China. Some countries simply cannot do the same things as China. If you look at the performance of European and American countries, it is extremely disappointing. I dare not expect them to be able to achieve zero. ”
"Also, the reason why natural disasters are natural disasters is because they do not depend on human will. Now we can't even deal with the human aspect, so how can you guarantee that there will be no more problems at higher levels?"
"If you take this into consideration, will you still be as optimistic as you are now?" Chen Chen felt super tired just talking, "Anyway, I'm not optimistic at all."
Others didn't know it, but Chen knew it. When the whole world thought it was going to get better, Omicron gave all humans a blow in the head. This was something even more terrifying than before.
"Okay, you're right." Pei Zhuxuan couldn't help but sigh along with Chen Chen, "It's so annoying, when will it end?"
"I don't know if you ask me, but I know that "The Penthouse Season 2" will start airing in ten minutes. Anyone who wants takeout or snacks must hurry up." Chen Chen put his finger on his girlfriend's forehead. Pushing her down on the sofa, "I'll prepare whatever you want to eat! You don't need to diet now anyway."
"Are you telling the truth?" Pei Zhuxuan laughed twice, "I want to eat spicy fried rice cakes and ramen!"
"Everything will be prepared for you." Chen Chen drooled when he heard what she said, "Because I want to eat it myself."
Eating junk food at night makes you feel so happy. Eating it together for two people will double the happiness!
There were no ingredients for the spicy stir-fried rice cake in the refrigerator, so Pei Zhuxuan ordered takeout directly with circle C. Chen Chen went to the kitchen to get some garnishes for the ramen.
There's always something fried, right? Since you have decided to be happy, be happy more thoroughly.
“Tuk tuk tuk~”
Just when Chen Chen finished making fried eggs, the delivery boy's knock on the door rang happily.
Obviously Arlene's Canteen discovered the boss's order again, but it doesn't matter, just enjoy it.
After taking the takeout and unpacking it, Chen Chen brought out all the ramen and fried eggs while Pei Zhuxuan laid the table.
"Get some pickles?"
Pei Zhuxuan looked at Chen Chen with questioning eyes.
"Go get it." Chen Chen nodded to her, "I'm in a good mood now, maybe I'll like it."
"You can also like to eat because of your mood." Pei Zhuxuan only found it funny, "I just think that if we don't eat it, we will throw it away again, which is a pity."
"Yes, it's such a pity." Chen Chen said angrily, "There are always things sent to us from the program "Sow Beans, Reap Beans", and we can't finish them!"
Every time this kind of product "Sowing Beans, Reaping Beans" is produced, a copy will be sent to them, which is like a sense of presence.
But if you ask if the program is trying to create a sense of presence, they will definitely say yes.
"Oh, that's right." Chen Chen remembered something and asked Pei Zhuxuan, who was heading towards the refrigerator, "When will the additional land for the follow-up of "Sowing Beans, Rear Beans" be in place?"
"It's already in place. Didn't anyone tell you?" Pei Zhuxuan was a little surprised.
"I have set up the message not to remind the production team. It looks annoying." Chen Chen said awkwardly: "It's fine if it's already in place. The production team should have told me that I didn't see it."
"Okay, okay, let's eat." Pei Zhuxuan brought the kimchi over, "Eat and watch TV!" "..."
Bae Zhuhyun has found time to finish watching the first season, and now it is just right to watch the second season, which is very comfortable.
"What do you think the ratings will be for the premiere?"
Pei Zhuxuan stared at the TV and asked unconsciously.
"Guaranteed to be more than fifteen." Chen Chen didn't even think about it. "At the end of the first season, the ratings rose to close to thirty. The new season will be cut in half to have a rating of fifteen."
< br>
"Is this high?"
Bae Zhuhyun asked casually while holding her noodles in the air with her chopsticks, waiting for them to cool down.
"How about you ask Xiurong." Chen Chen joked: "Xiurong is also a young actor, so he should be very sensitive to ratings."
"I don't ask, you don't have good intentions." Pei Zhuxuan shook her head repeatedly, "It must be because Jiuyi's drama did not perform well, you are kidding here."
"If I tell my conscience, her starring role in "The Great Seducer" is actually good." Chen Chen said: "The ratings on MBC TV station were around seven o'clock, which is barely enough to reach the passing mark."

"Then what?"
Pei Zhuxuan was waiting for the next step, knowing that this person would definitely give a "but".
"But Soo-young's performance in the drama was a bit poor. She was left behind even though the overall performance looked good." Chen Chen continued: "There was also Moon Ga-young in the drama at that time, who was also in 1996. , the difference can be seen in comparison.”
"After all, I am a professional actor, so it is inevitable." Bae Zhuhyun whispered.
"The audience won't be as tolerant as you." Chen Chen shifted his focus to the Fool's Company. "I don't know what your company is thinking. The arrangement of the actor's career is completely random. There is no step-by-step process at all."< br>
"Don't let idols continue to act step by step!" Pei Zhuxuan retorted fiercely, "How can I give you so much time to take your time? It's just a matter of two or three attempts. If you can do it, you can do it. If you can't, the company will do it." Give up on you!”
"Well, that makes sense. I thought it was too simple."
Chen Chen bowed his head and admitted his mistake in a good manner.
This time, Bae Joo-hyun can't handle it. Boss Chen, a man who dominates the South Korean TV drama industry, is saying this to me? It seems like I went a little too far, maybe.
"What do you think about Jiu Yi's acting issues?" Bae Zhuhyun turned the topic to Park Sooyoung.
"I don't think it's useful. The results are kept there. It's up to you." Chen Chen put a big mouthful of noodles into his mouth, "Passed, that's all."
"She Fell in Love with My Lie" and "The Great Seducer" both passed the mark based on their performance alone. Looking at the specific performance of the actors, the idol Jiu Yi is indeed a little worse than others, and there is nothing that can be done about it.
"What about me?" Pei Zhuhyun flipped her hair, "What do you think of me?"
"I can't evaluate you. How can I evaluate you when you haven't even landed a leading role?" Chen Chen complained: "You are just an idol who goes to TV dramas for a while. You are still an idol, so besides No one of your true fans will judge you from the perspective of an actor!”
"Why should I ask you to evaluate you for saying so many things but not enough?!" Pei Zhuxuan glared at him, "Speak quickly!"
"It's just a normal idol actor's performance. There is a certain lower limit. The upper limit depends on luck and whether God will provide food for him." Chen Chen said helplessly: "No matter how much you can do, there will be no more."
"That's it." Pei Zhuxuan seemed very satisfied, "That's good, at least it's not bad."
"No one says you're bad." Chen Chen rolled his eyes, "Go and read the comments about you online. At most, they say you're short, but no one says you're bad."
"Hey~" Pei Zhuxuan couldn't help but smacked her lips, "Can you say something nice?!"
"Then let's say you're beautiful." Chen Chen smiled proudly, "You know, the senior sister you played in "Zombie School" everyone thought she was super beautiful. Not ordinary beautiful, she was super beautiful, and Beautiful and cool! ”
"It's all just false compliments on the surface. Let's not talk about it." Pei Zhuxuan's face suddenly turned red. "How is the program in S Division?"
"It will be broadcast on the online platform tvn and YouTube at the same time next week." Chen Chen replied: "Tomorrow we will officially start promoting it and release a theme song."
"Who wrote the theme song and who sang it?"
Pei Zhuxuan always looked at Chen Chen when he asked, and his meaning was obvious.
"I wrote half of it, and IVE was responsible for singing it." Chen Chen didn't hide it from her either.
"IVE" Pei Zhuxuan was stunned, "Who is IVE? Why haven't I heard of it? A singer from a long time ago?"
"No, it's the names I temporarily gave to the girls who sang." Chen Chen said with a smile: "Two from Integrate, three from the new girl group, and there is also a trainee from Starship. They The group is called IVE”
"Who can understand this? You are really annoying!" Pei Zhuxuan punched him, and then couldn't help but fall into the fantasy of happiness, "How about the two of us watch the show together? I feel like we have a lot There are many things to say.”
"No problem." Chen Chen nodded and said, "I know you want to tell me something about being a trainee and an idol a long time ago. I'm looking forward to it."
"I hope I can be free by then."
Bae Joo Hyun prays sincerely.
"You will definitely be able to take some time off." Chen Chen said with a bad smile: "After all, the idiot company is not going to give you a solo."
"..."
Pei Zhuxuan was speechless and didn't even bother to refute.
After dinner, Pei Zhuxuan took the initiative to take up the task of cleaning up, while Chen Chen had nothing to do and read the script again.
The first lady in the company wanted resources. She felt that she had taken a big step forward in the film industry and it was time to strike while the iron was hot and continue to try.
Either continue to work in movies, or make an excellent TV series to solidify his status as an actor.
Of course Chen Chen, the president, must satisfy her. After all, if he cannot satisfy her, he is incompetent, which is too embarrassing.
"Look."
"I can only read the scripts for another two or three years. If I don't read them now, when will I wait to read them?"
