Chapter 174: A Good Show
The value of a company is often translated into exact numbers through economic instruments, so that the outside world has a vague idea of the company's strength. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info and often those values of real money and silver are difficult to reflect the full strength of the company, Qi Zimo this time from the fact to experience.
As the largest brokerage company in South Korea, SM's market value is a flat boat relative to some predators, but it is a real person in the Korean entertainment industry and the music industry. The news of MBC's lifting of Zheng Xiuyan's ban order has been spread comprehensively from top to bottom, but excluding objective reasons such as image discomfort and grade inconsistency, there are only a handful of program groups that have actually taken action to send a notice invitation to Zheng Xiuyan, and I have to admit that SM has been rooted in South Korea for decades, and its influence cannot be shaken.
Whoever started the trouble should end it.
"Director Qi, looking forward to the stars and the moon has finally brought you here. Qi Zimo has been here three times, and President Kim's attitude has become more and more eager.
"President Kim, don't dare to be. I have nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace, I hope you don't invite me out after you know my intentions. ”
"Director Naqi said bluntly, we will definitely meet the legitimate and reasonable requirements. ”
The old fox is the old fox, the attitude and tone are still very kind, but the words are rigorous.
"Then I'm welcome, I hope your company can lift Zheng Xiuyan's ban order, and then don't use means to force Zheng Xiujing's contract renewal. Qi Zimo browsed the information before coming and learned that Zheng Xiujing's contract was about to expire. Thinking of the urine of SM, it is likely that some unnecessary friction will occur, and it is beneficial for both parties to put it on the table in advance and negotiate it.
President Kim did not reply immediately, he was considering the actual purpose of the other party, out of personal concern and discussion, if there is potential business competition, then there is no need to talk about it.
"Director Qi has crossed the line a bit, and these two things are my private affairs. ”
"If it weren't for your company's private affairs, I wouldn't have come to negotiate with President Kim, and besides, the two things that your company needed my assistance with before seemed to be private matters. Why don't you get two off, and write it off in one go?"
Everyone can play double standards, no wonder the good Samaritan is almost extinct now.
This is indeed the case, President Kim couldn't refute it, took a step back and promised: "That's it, I promise Zheng Xiujing's matter." But Zheng Xiuyan's matter is difficult for me to obey, this incident has a great impact, and I can't open this opening. ”
From SM's point of view, the artist who easily forgives the conflict with the company and forcibly terminates the contract not only makes the company lose its prestige in the Korean entertainment industry and loses its tough image, but also provides the wrong signal to other signed artists. Because of this, SM has maintained an iron-fisted policy for a long time, and has implemented the worst blocking methods against artists who terminate their contracts, from Dongfang God to sj to Girls' Generation and EXO, without exception.
"After Korean entertainment became a pillar industry, a large amount of foreign capital was injected, which means that the industry is tending to be market-oriented, and it is no longer an era when a few giants are all about their word. It is better to improve the management system, improve the employment relationship, and increase the loyalty of artists with hardware strength and humanistic care is the wisest choice in the future. ”
Although Qi Zimo said this with his own purpose, this is indeed a necessary trend for the development of the Korean entertainment industry, there will inevitably be more and more brokerage companies in the future, the industry will be more standardized, and it will be common for artists to terminate their contracts and transfers.
"Director Qi is really professional and sees it thoroughly, but he is a little idealistic. ”
"South Korea's market economy is just a slogan, but the chaebol is the substance. Even if SM's right to speak will fall back in the future, it can still walk sideways on one acre and three points of land in South Korea. Besides, shareholders don't think so long-term, and the immediate interests are important. "President Kim's intention is very clear, the future is very long-term, and SM's strategic image at this stage must be maintained to the end.
Qi Zimo took a sip of the teacup, adjusted it slightly, and the difficulty of persuasion was more difficult than he imagined.
"In that case, let's do it the same way as South Korea. ”
"I believe that there are many people in the Korean entertainment industry who have rumored that Zheng Xiuyan has a financier behind her, and I didn't deliberately cover up the news. I've been busy lately. After the completion of the project, there will be no one in South Korea who will question whether this backer is unreliable, and I guess President Kim will also have the rhetoric to persuade the shareholders, right?"
Of course, President Jin had heard of the "things" that Qi Zimo said, and what surprised him was that Qi Zimo was confident.
"So sure?"
"Don't joke with reputation. Qi Zimo smiled firmly.
Taking the negative impact of Zheng Xiuyan's unblocking on SM as a bargaining chip with the emerging force Qi Zimo, of course it is worth it, and as for the question of how to transform it into actual benefits, President Kim has a figure in his head, and he is no longer worried.
"Director Qi has said everything about this, and it would be too ignorant for me to say yes if I didn't agree. ”
The two smiled knowingly, their hands clasped tightly together, signaling that the agreement had been reached.
"According to me, Director Qi has been inextricably linked with our company intentionally or unintentionally, so it is better to take a step closer and directly invest in our company, and this kind of thing will be much easier for my family to do in the future, and I will definitely support it. But in return, I hope that Director Qi will stand firmly on my side at a critical moment. President Kim took advantage of the right time to invite Qi Zimo to invest in SM again.
Qi Zimo can guess why President Kim has invited him to join the shares many times, it is likely that a series of shocks in SM last year caused the stock to plummet, and the board of directors and the outside world have given him a lot of pressure, and President Jin urgently needs the support of more shareholders.
"Let me think about it. President Jin really talked about Qi Zimo's heart, but he needs to think more, not only from rationality but also mostly from emotion.
The matter has been negotiated, everyone is not an idler, Qi Zimo proposed to leave.
"Director Qi is no longer sitting, and the girls will report to the company in a while. ”
Qi Zimo replied helplessly: "President Jin, things must be reversed, so it's better to go with the flow." ”
President Kim was not embarrassed when he heard this, laughed out loud, and stretched out his hand to signal him out.
In the front door hall where SM people came and went, Qi Zimo, who was about to leave, accidentally caught a glimpse of two sneaky figures around the corner, President Jin looked at it and shouted: "Zheng Xiujing, Kim Zhongren, come here." ”
Zheng Xiujing, who was wearing jeans and a casual gray and white shirt, hesitated to move over and bowed deeply to President Jin before coming to Qi Zimo and whispering OPPA.
"What are you hiding?" Qi Zimo asked, touching her head.
"Nope. Zheng Xiujing embarrassedly hid behind Qi Zimo.
"What are you doing at the company today?"
"Well, review the script, and Jongin OPPA. Zheng Xiujing only remembered at this time that she was not alone, and hurriedly came out to introduce her relatives to Qi Zimo.
Qi Zimo glanced at it lightly, his height is good, his appearance is reasonable, and Korean flower boys basically have a routine.
"President Kim, this girl is so stupid and has no ambitions, as long as you treat her well, she won't have any additional requirements. ”
Qi Zimo hinted that he did not have the inclination to let Zheng Xiujing stand on her own, and asked President Kim not to feel very embarrassed about the things that were negotiated before.
"As the old saying goes, stupid people have stupid blessings, Zheng Xiujing, this kid is really good, especially luck. ”
The two didn't care about the two stupid children standing next to them, and they clashed with each other.
"Zhongren!"
Suddenly three or four young men came in, all of them seemed to be a combination.
"President Kim, Director Qi. They got closer and saw the two bigwigs talking with their backs to them.
"Hehe, EXO's four children, I hope Director Qi will take care of them more. President Jin introduced Qi Zimo with a smile. In fact, there is no need to trouble him, Director Qi has seen these boys, and one of them has seen more than once.
Qi Zimo swept over them in turn, and finally his gaze fell on the overly fair face, and he saw that he was holding a book on his arm hanging by his side, and he was momentarily interested.
"The Business Management Report, by Richard Romante, I've read it twice. ”
"Have you studied business administration before?" Qi Zimo asked seemingly casually.
"Nope. The fair-skinned guy was stunned for a moment and denied it in a low voice.
Qi Zimo was not surprised, nor did he make any comments on it.
"Can you lend me a pencil?" The fair-skinned young man hesitated and handed the pen to Qi Zimo.
Qi Zimo began to sketch on the table of contents with a pen, made some notes in some places, and returned the book in the middle of the ring.
"It will help you to take a closer look at the places marked. Qi Zimo patted him on the shoulder.
When Qi Zimo turned around, he could clearly hear several heavy gassing sounds, and it seemed that these children were not lightly frightened.
"By the way, have you compensated for that money?" Just when everyone thought that things were passing smoothly like this, Qi Zimo, who seemed to remember something, turned around and asked something that surprised everyone.
The fair-skinned young man who was asked obviously fluctuated in his mood, his hands were clenched, his muscles were bruised, and his face was red.
"I paid the full compensation on the same day, Director Qi. A few seconds later, the fair-skinned young man with his head slightly bowed replied coldly. Every word is bitten hard, the tone is bad, and the emotions of shame and indignation are not disguised.
President Kim frowned, but he did not solve the siege but waited for things to develop.
"Feel embarrassed?" Qi Zimo remained silent on the surface, but he was actually a little disappointed in his heart.
It's okay not to ask, but if you ask, it adds fuel to the fire, and the fair-skinned guy raised his head and stared at Qi Zimo with a terrifying gaze.
"Boxian, are you okay?" After a stalemate, a few graceful figures rushed in, and a fairer little one jumped out and blocked the middle of Qi Zimo and the fair-skinned guy, holding the fair-skinned guy's hands to look around, asking questions and questions.
"Kim Tae-yeon, it's getting more and more unruly, what about the politeness that the company teaches you?" Qi Zimo doesn't mind, it doesn't mean that President Kim can also be regarded as not seeing, and the influence of his artists being so rude to SM is too bad.
The smiling girl among the girls hurriedly pulled Kim Taeyeon back, and several of them bowed to President Kim and Director Qi together.
"Director Qi, you misunderstood, I didn't think so, thank you for your teaching. After a series of unexpected events, the fair-skinned guy calmed down and calmed down.
Qi Zimo shook his head and stopped wasting his energy.
"President Kim, I'm sorry, I saw the wrong person. The choice of a pun depends on how the listener understands it.
"Of course, Director Qi doesn't have so much effort to care about this little thing. President Kim glanced at the white guy who had returned to normal and said meaningfully.
Bidding farewell to President Kim, he took Zheng Xiujing to the group of women, from the very beginning of the Tyney CP to the two mountains in the middle to the pair of lying silkworm eyes, Qi Zimo's eyes swept over without pause.
"Do you want to have dinner together?" Qi Zimo asked Xu Xian at the end.
Xu Xian kept watching Qi Zimo's movements, and didn't let go of a single thing. Especially when he moved his gaze to her own right hand, he was more detailed, but he didn't notice a trace of abnormality. Even Lin Yun'er, who obviously hid something from her, behaved very normally, only nodding slightly and chuckling, no different from Xiuying and Yu Li's movements.
Was it really something wrong with their eyes, or were they just a chance encounter?
Xu Xian, whose doubts were alleviated, said hello to Secretary Huang, temporarily put down his mind and went with Qi Zimo.
"Baekhyun, what's going on?" After the two bigwigs left, Kim Taeyeon, who had been ready to move for a long time, stepped forward again to shush the cold and ask for warmth.
"It's okay, Nuna, I'm going to practice. The fair-skinned young man replied very mechanically and coldly.
Secretary Huang once again acted as a little expert in appeasing, and immediately stepped forward to hug the fluttering Kim Taeyeon.
"Eh, Secretary Huang, don't you often say who this guy feels like after he changes? ”
Jin Xiaoyuan, who followed the surrounding, discovered this singularity, and suddenly shouted out like discovering a new continent.
Cui Xiuying hurriedly covered her mouth and dragged her into the practice room. The other women also smiled awkwardly at Kim Taeyeon and followed away. At this time, Lin Yun'er at the end had an abnormal expression and drifted her gaze to the harmonious backs of two women and a man in the distance.
