On the morning of March 15th, Namoo Actors announced the news of an early contract extension with actor Lee Joon-ki.
According to various intelligence reports, Lee Joon-ki's contract renewal negotiations progressed by leaps and bounds after the resignation of C Headquarters. It can basically be seen that C Headquarters facilitated this contract renewal.
Chen Chen didn't know how much more NamooActors had to pay in this process than originally planned, but he was in a good mood now and wanted to hum a little tune from time to time.
There is no other reason than Jin Xiangqi’s news still not appearing in the news.
On the first day after he terminated his contract with Namoo Actors, Chen Chen was nervous when he didn't receive any news. But after a week and there was still no news, Chen Chen felt a little want to laugh.
For an actor of Jin Xiangqi's caliber, every company is staring at her like a hyena, wanting to take her into their den and enjoy her alone.
It's already strange that she hasn't signed a new company within three days of the expiration of her contract, let alone such a long time as a week, so the current situation can only mean that Jin Xiangqi is stuck in finding her next job.
The happiest thing when Jin Xiangqi got stuck looking for his next home was of course C Headquarters. Not to mention whether it was because of the emergence of C Headquarters that he got stuck, at least C Headquarters had more time to pursue, and the chance of getting it increased.
"The people from StoneMusic are coming over soon. How to deal with it?"
Shirley opened her mouth to synchronize the news with Chen Chen.
"You can reply however you want. Chatting with StoneMusic shouldn't be stressful, right?" Chen Chen asked doubtfully.
"Isn't this involving your new girl group?" Shirley joked: "If this thing doesn't go well, can you guarantee that you won't be angry?"
"There's no reason why it couldn't be done well, so there's no reason for me to be angry." Chen Chen responded calmly, "C Headquarters is such a big company, and we can't deal with a member of a disbanded group without communicating with all parties in advance. ? There is something wrong with this world. ”
"Okay, then I'll go and just go through the motions." Shirley stood up, "Zhao Rouli will come to C Headquarters to report in the afternoon. I think you have to receive it in person."
"That's what I think too." Chen Chen nodded and said, "I can't give you much time, but I still have to give you the important task of shouldering the responsibility of the group in the early stage. If I don't meet you in person and say a few good words to you, my conscience will be uneasy. .”
"Then I'm leaving, bye!"
Shirley patted her clothes, took the documents and turned around to leave.
"Walk like a hammer!" Chen Chen complained angrily behind him, "Does walking from the office to the conference room count as walking?!"
Naturally, StoneMusic came to visit Headquarters C when the contract was signed. Regardless of who took advantage, if Shirley, the representative director, went to StoneMusic for a walk, they would probably be upset.
Not long after Shirley stepped out, Chen Chen's phone rang.
"Why did President Hong call me at this time?" After muttering, Chen Chen answered the phone, "Well, what's wrong?"
"After the disbandment of El Chapo King, Han Xiaoyuan's contract has returned to Cube Entertainment. Now Cube Entertainment has received contact from BigHit, hoping to get her from us." Hong Shengcheng posed the problem, "How do you think we should handle it?"
"The name will be changed to HYBE in a few days. Those who are still called BigHit should change their habits as soon as possible." Chen Chen joked casually and dismissed the question, "What did Boss Hong think? After all, As an artist from Cube Entertainment, only Boss Hong can make this decision.”
Han Xiaoyuan was truly ranked sixth in "PRODUCE48" "before", but was demoted due to vote fraud, which is a pity.
However, Chen Chen captured several members of "PRODUCE48" here in advance, so Han Xiaoyuan successfully made her debut and spent those precious two and a half years as a member of El Chapo King.
On March 14th, El Chapo Wang Guan announced its disbandment, and Han Xiaoyuan's contract returned to Cube Entertainment.
"I think it can be left to Hybe." Hong Shengcheng said with a smile: "Cube Entertainment does not have a good plan to arrange for such a relatively mature artist. Staying in the company is not good for the company and it is not good for her."
"Then send it over. There is no place for Han Xiaoyuan in Cube Entertainment now." Chen Chen also thought the same. "Hybe will most likely arrange her into the new girl group. This is a good thing for us. At least we have someone who knows everything for the time being. ”
"Oh, by the way, do you have any other news?" Chen Chen asked: "For example, Hybe also extended an olive branch to other people in the Dwarf King."
"No, but this kind of news cannot be concealed. News will be exposed as soon as there is any action." Hong Shengcheng joked: "Just like today's move of C Department to sign the contract with Jo Jouri was exposed by reporters, Hybe took News about other people cannot escape reporters.”
"You said that the Dwarf King was disbanded yesterday, isn't it not good that the C headquarters took down Zhao Rouli today?" Chen Chen was a little worried, "Will the fans of the Dwarf King turn their sadness into venting their anger?" On the head of C headquarters?”
"This is almost bound to happen." Hong Shengcheng affirmed: "Some of the fans are not calm enough, and some even blame C Headquarters for the failure of King Shorty to successfully renew his contract and continue. Reason.”
"But that little noise will not affect the C headquarters, because after all, going from the Shorty King to the C headquarters is a step to a higher level." Hong Shengcheng chuckled, "As a fan, you can't stop her from running towards a better place. It’s a place, haha.”
"That's indeed an interesting statement." Chen Chen also laughed, "But you're right, that little bit of noise won't cause any harm to C Headquarters."
"Then let's do it." Chen Chen urged: "Hurry up and deal with Han Xiaoyuan's matter, and try to let Hybe and C Headquarters fight the mine together. I don't want to bear the fiercest offensive and then watch Hybe sit back and enjoy the results."< br>
The first person to be beaten for doing something like this will definitely be the hardest hit. If the news about Hybe comes out after the C headquarters, it will make him feel a little too comfortable.
Hybe was comfortable, but Chen Chen was not. After all, he was the most direct competitor.
……
On the afternoon of the 15th, a reporter revealed that singer Jo Yuri did not return to StoneMusic after the disbandment of El Chapo King but signed a contract with C Division.
It was very quiet on the Internet, so quiet that Chen Chen felt a little outrageous.
"The fans of El Chapo King have been very mentally prepared for the disbandment, and have long accepted the separation of the members to different entertainment companies."
"And compared to StoneMusic, C Headquarters is obviously a better home, isn't it?"
"Furthermore, this reporter only reported the facts fairly and did not add any exaggeration to deliberately stir up the topic, so it is understandable that the Internet is quiet."
"Most of them are words of respect and blessings, how can you get agitated?" Shirley pushed the signing document into Chen Chen's hand, "Okay, stop staring at the Internet. Other girls will arrive at C headquarters in twenty minutes, you Go make arrangements.”
"Okay." Chen Chen tossed the documents in his hands twice and stood up, "It means I have to stop by the archives to file this."
"It doesn't matter if you return it or not, it will be invalid soon anyway." Shirley said casually.
The first thing that Zouri needs to do to debut as a new girl group in C Division is to abolish this contract first, so it really won't exist for long.
"It's better to go back. It's better for me to take a few more steps now than to bury problems later."
Chen Chen stepped out.
After going to the archives room to hand in documents, and then going to the water bar downstairs to buy some drinks, Chen Chen was waiting for her in the small conference room.
“Tuk Tuk~”
"President, I'm here to report."
The door was open, and Chen Chen could be seen sitting there at a glance. Zhao Rouli knocked on the door twice politely and walked in directly. "Okay, sit down." Chen Chen handed her the drink, "Don't be nervous, welcome to join C Department."
"It is my honor to join the C Department. I am very willing to join the C Department."
Zhao Rouli replied.
Chen Chen believed this to be true. If Zhao Rouli hadn't nodded, the procedure with StoneMusic wouldn't have gone so quickly.
"Do you know why I want you to come to C Headquarters?" Chen Chen asked smoothly.
"I probably know a little bit. I made some guesses when I was chatting with the company and StoneMusic." Zhaorou suddenly became excited and her body was trembling slightly, but she couldn't take the initiative to say it out loud and could only look at Chen Chen with expectant eyes.
"It has something to do with the new girl group of C Headquarters." Chen Chen said without deliberately tempting her: "The new girl group of C Headquarters needs you to lead it, as the lead singer and captain."
"..."
Zhao Rouli covered her mouth in excitement, her body was shaking and she couldn't speak at all.
Just after leaving El Chapo King, he was picked up by the new group of C Headquarters. His artist career has not even been confused for half a day, and his future is bright!
Is it luck or just dreaming? !
But those are not important. What is important now is to be able to respond to the president's expectations well.
"I will definitely work hard!"
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
Zhao Rouli stood up and bowed fiercely to Chen Chen, no less than ninety degrees.
"You don't have to be so polite." Chen Chen smiled, "It's not easy to be in the girl group of C headquarters. You will have a hard time in the future."
"You are not afraid of hard work. People who are afraid of hard work cannot be idols!" Zhao Rouli is very aware. "And everyone is working hard, and I am not the only one who has to work hard."
"Well said, let's talk about something more realistic." Chen Chen changed the subject, "Let's talk about your business contract, the specific requirements of C Department for you and what it will provide you."
"If you have any requests or special ideas, it's best to say them all in one breath now. Telling me and telling the person in charge of the idol section have different meanings. I think you should be quite clear about this."
< br>
"..."
The two chatted a lot, and Chen Chen discovered that this little girl was actually a very capable artist, much better than he thought, and he felt like he had found a treasure.
Arrangements were made for Chao Rouli to go to the person in charge of the idol section to follow the arrangements, and this brief meeting ended.
……
While the two were chatting, the results of the matter between Cube Entertainment and Hybe about Han Xiaoyuan also emerged.
"Have you joined SOURCEMUSIC?" On the way back to the office, Chen Chen looked thoughtfully at the message from Hong Shengcheng, "It seems that things have not changed much. Hybe's girl group will still start from SOURCEMUSIC. I thought ADOR would Show up early.”
SOURCEMUSIC is LESSERAFIM and ADOR is NewJeans. Chen Chen has always been so simple and crude in judging who Hybe’s new girl group will be closer to.
However, ADOR was originally a label that was split from SOURCEMUSIC. We can't make a complete decision yet and say it is Chi. Chen Chen has to wait a little longer.
"I have something to tell you." Seeing Chen Chen return to the office, Shirley immediately threw a pile of information into his arms, "After reading it, give me the list, and you will interview in person tomorrow."
"What is this?"
Chen Chen flipped through two pages at random and found that he didn't recognize the people on them.
"Your real assistant." Shirley looked unkind and clenched her small white teeth tightly. "These are the people who have entered the final selection. Even if you die, you have to pick someone out for me!"
"No, you can keep two!" Shirley suddenly changed her mind, "They all need to be cultivated anyway, there is not much difference between one and two!"
"No problem!" Chen Chen promised decisively, "I will complete the task well and cannot let this farce continue!"
At this point in time, the purpose of recruiting assistants is purely to do work, and Chen Chen doesn't feel the need to be on guard against others anymore.
Pick two good-looking, smart, and nurturing ones and end it quickly. Finding an assistant for Chen Chen doesn't cost a lot of resources, so we can't keep doing it like this.
In fact, the main reason is that Shirley, the representative director, has shown her ability to take over the C headquarters. From now on, the C headquarters will still be handed over to her. As long as she is here, it will be impossible for "outsiders" like new assistants to create What trouble.
Without such worries, Chen Chen only needs to consider how to reduce his workload.
"Why did you agree so readily this time?" Shirley was full of curiosity, "What changed you?"
"Now we have enough so-called 'own people'." Chen Chen explained with a smile: "In the past, we only had you and me. How could I dare to let in such a sensitive person like an assistant? Now Representative Cui He can act alone, and there are ruthless people like Boss Hong and President Jin in the company, so the little president’s assistant can’t cause any trouble.”
"You've really considered everything comprehensively." Shirley praised Chen Chen and made a request, "Then you should try to choose a young assistant. It's time to retire after you've trained him, and they'll be available to me."
"Hiss~"
Chen Chen wanted to curse for a moment, but when he thought about it, it seemed that this was really the case.
If not for Shirley, who else can it be used for? Is Chen Chen going to take the person away?
"I understand." Chen Chen nodded, returned to his seat with the information in his arms and sat down, "I will sort out the list before getting off work today."
If you only focus on these two characteristics: youth and intelligence, it will not be difficult to find someone.
Youth is youth. The date of birth is clearly displayed there, and it is just a comparison work.
Whether you are smart or not depends on your academic qualifications first. People who cannot even understand the purest and cleanest spiritual food such as knowledge should not be considered smart or not. Small cleverness will always be useless in the face of the human wisdom accumulated in the world for thousands of years. Worth mentioning.
In fact, after Chen Chen became a time traveler, he respected those smart people even more.
Because Chen Chen found that even if he took advantage of time travel, he still couldn't do what those people did.
The time of talented people is more valuable, and the quality of their time is higher than yours. When others beat you for ten years in one year, it is quite ridiculous to regard yourself as invincible with the advantage brought by time travel.
Like Chen Chen, at best he can live a little more comfortably in the Korean entertainment industry.
"Well why are you here?"
Chen Chen read some familiar names and hurriedly looked through more specific information to confirm.
Photos, experience, permanent address
"Oh, it's really you."
