Chapter 405 Jin Zhongming's Hard Week (Part I) 7k two-in-one
"Go out and see, who is here this time?" In the morning, in the new building of SM Company, Han Changchang, who was working at the office, couldn't help but stop his pen helplessly after hearing the noise at the door, and then ordered his secretary to go out to inquire about the situation.
"It's Chairman Lee!" A few minutes later, the secretary brought in a somewhat startling news. "Chairman Lee is back, and everyone is going to see him in the conference room on the 7th floor......"
"Conference room on the 7th floor?" Han Changchang was slightly stunned, but then laughed. "It's a good thing that President Lee is back, and maybe Mrs. Lee's condition has improved, so I should also go and greet him. ”
"Yes, indeed. The secretary immediately nodded earnestly.
That's right, it really should be, Han Changchang and his secretary are sincere. After all, Li Xiuman is the president of this company and the founder of this company, and now since it is rare to come back, anyone who is reasonable should respect his existence and take the initiative to visit and report to work. Besides, if you are unreasonable, you have to talk about human feelings, other people's wives are struggling with cancer, come over at this time, no matter what, you must do enough face work, so that the family is comfortable, and you can't distract the family because of the company's affairs......
took the elevator to the 7th floor, and the corridor was already blocked, so Han Changchang had to stop at the end of the corridor with his secretary, waiting for the road to be clear.
In other words, although the company has several hundred employees, but if you remove all the branches abroad, remove the various cooperative units and branches in Seoul, and remove the several departments that are still left in the old building, this new office building is actually only one or two hundred people.
So in this case, the current situation is even more commendable, and Li Xiuman's influence on this company can be seen.
In fact, it was probably because he understood this truth and felt it, so even if he was ignored by everyone and blocked here, Han Changchang was able to maintain his demeanor and respond with a smile.
However, the people in the conference room also quickly noticed the situation outside, so someone soon spread the word, saying that the chairman was very grateful to everyone, and in the afternoon he would personally go to various departments to thank and inspect the work, and now only the minister and above can come to the conference room to report on the work.
So, the crowd dispersed, and Executive Han also waved his hand to let his secretary go back, and then walked towards the conference room by himself.
"If Sika is fine, go back. Pushing open the door, I just heard President Li kindly persuading a company artist who should have happened to be here.
"Hey. Sika responded with some unease, as if he felt that it was a little rude to leave like this.
"I know what you want to ask, thank you for your concern, your wife is doing very well now. Li Xiuman continued to persuade with a smile. "But I haven't been here for a long time, and I'm going to talk to the company's top management about the situation soon, so you can just go and get busy with yourself. ”
"That'...... You're busy. Speaking of this, although Sika's eyes were still flickering, he could only get up and say goodbye.
"President Lee. After nodding to the departing Sika, Han Changchang also hurriedly stepped forward to greet him, and then sat down on the empty seat diagonally opposite the other party. "Is my sister-in-law's health completely well this time, or will I take the time to come back and guide the work?"
"Both. Li Xiuman, who is in good spirits, is also dry. "It's true that the person in my family has improved dramatically, but this disease is not safe in any case, and I am ready to continue to accompany him after this winter to discuss whether he can come back. As for coming over suddenly this time, in fact, considering that the escort in winter is relatively strong, and I may not be able to be distracted for a long time, so I am indeed a little uneasy, and I can't help but come over to see everyone's work status......"
"It's our lack of experience that bothers you. Hearing this, Kim Young-min, who had just walked in, hurriedly expressed his attitude and looked quite sincere.
But how do you say it? In the eyes of President Han, President Kim's words are a bit half-true- On the one hand, these two people really have no conflict of interest now, and Kim Yingmin should indeed be a little impressed by Li Xiuman's level before after becoming the actual clapper, so it is naturally no problem to sincerely say a polite word to his predecessors;
Of course, no matter what, no matter how subtle the mentality of several senior executives is, they still maintain a relatively harmonious atmosphere, and with the gathering of the heads of various departments in the new building, the meeting began quickly, and is still carried out quickly in a harmonious atmosphere, and when it is almost noon, the various departments have been roughly reported, and it seems that the meeting will soon be over.
However, at this moment, the wandering Han Changchang was suddenly attracted by a figure outside the window opposite him. Looking through the glass, this person was wearing a construction hat and a large mask, wearing a standard professional cleaning uniform, and was sitting on the suspension equipment outside the window at this time, carefully cleaning the large floor-to-ceiling window that was only a few steps away from Li Xiuman's back......
"It's ...... Spider-man cleaning from a high altitude, right?" Li Xiuman also turned his head to notice this person following Han Chang's gaze, but from his point of view, he only saw a rough figure, and then turned around and shook his head with emotion. "I really didn't expect to encounter this kind of situation in my own conference room, which was only in the TV series before, and if I replaced the old building, I wouldn't have this kind of treatment anyway. ”
"It's all about your leadership, president. Someone next to him immediately patted the horse. "After so many years, it has developed from such an old building all the way to the present ......"
"Do you need to stop?" Han Changchang suddenly interrupted the popular horse row with a strange expression. "Aren't we in a meeting? People are next to the window, will they hear some ...... Unnecessary trade secrets?"
"No, how troublesome is it for people to go up and down this way?" Li Xiuman shook his head again and again. "And besides, who has to be bored enough to hire a spider-man to eavesdrop on our meetings? Hanging outside the seventh floor on such a cold day, I feel sorry for this commercial spy......"
Everyone immediately laughed, and it really caused the spider-man outside the window to look in curiously.
"Alright, no jokes. Li Xiuman waved his hand and signaled the people in the conference room to be quiet. "The point is that we're almost over, and I'm not going to ask any specific business questions next, mainly because I want to talk to you about some casual topics, if this kind of thing can relieve people's boredom, listen to it and listen to ....... ”
Another burst of laughter passed, and the high-level meeting entered its final stage.
Li Xiuman said directly disappreciatively: "What, let's talk about a hot issue first, what do you think of the two things of BH Company, and has the company prepared any measures?"
"We discussed it before, and we all felt that we should expand the educational breadth of idols at the trainee stage. "The person in charge of the trainee department immediately replied to his president. "At the very least, idols must have a basic concept of money and basic legal knowledge before their debut. ”
"yes. Someone else immediately nodded. Who would have thought that a little girl's temporary stupidity would be able to directly cause such a catastrophe? Let's be fair, the quality of GLam's group and BTS is actually very high, and over time, it may not be impossible for both to become successful. But now, it's such a bad thing, and half of the company's efforts in the past few years have been wasted...... Therefore, it is necessary to prevent the gradual progress. ”
"Well said. Li Xiuman nodded with satisfaction. "In the matter of the width of trainee education, we must be self-aware, which is indeed far inferior to JYP. And the reason why we were able to ignore this gap before was because we had enough constraints on artists and enough management in the past. But we must also understand that according to the development trend of today's society, this kind of direct management of artists must be getting weaker and weaker...... This is a social trend, and no one can stop it, so it's very good for you to have this understanding......"
"I think so!" At this moment, Han Changchang, who had been staring out the window inexplicably, suddenly spoke casually. "There are too many angles to reflect on in this matter, and it shouldn't be taken as a warning only from the perspective of Bighit, an entertainment agency of the same type......"
"What does Han Chang mean ......," Li Xiuman became serious. "Is there anything in the company that is not well thought out?"
"It's not well thought out. Han Chang shook his head again and again. "But I think there are some things in this matter that we should pay more attention to. ”
"For example?"
"For example...... Shouldn't the company maintain a more serious stance towards the Artists' Rights Mutual Aid Committee and the Filmmakers' Federation controlled by Mr. Kim Jong-myung?"
After saying this, Han Changchang continued to stare out the window casually, while Li Xiuman and Kim Young-min both maintained a strange but different silence...... The collective silence and strange attitude of the three top figures of the company instantly made the originally harmonious atmosphere in the conference room tense.
"Old Han. After a long time, Li Xiuman stretched out his finger and clicked on the conference table, which was considered to have broken the silence. "I heard that the variety show project of the three brothers and sisters, who are very popular recently, started from you?"
"That's right. Han Changchang nodded very calmly.
"Actually, that variety show is doing well. Li Xiuman nodded as usual. "The number of hits on the web is objective, the reviews are good, and it gives Amber and luna a good opportunity each. And that TV series from Krystal, who arranged it?"
"It's me. Jin Yingmin on the side raised his hand slightly. "But that's a relatively early thing, and the return of fx summer vacation is very good, so I took the opportunity to discuss it with SBS TV......
"It's a good vision. Li Xiuman directly raised his hand to interrupt the other party, as if he didn't want to listen to these things behind. "The ratings are very good, and the company has crashed into the best TV series over the years. ”
"It's a pity that Krystal is only the third female. Kim Young-min laughed dryly. "Originally, she could have been the second female or even the heroine, but she had to say that she should be self-aware......"
"It's all my own people here, let's not talk about these things. Li Xiuman shook his head and once again asked President Kim Dae to shut up directly. "First of all, from the perspective of the company's profitability, both projects were actually very successful, and I agree with your choice. However, I also have to ask the question, why the Zheng sisters?"
Han Chang raised his hand casually.
"Han Chang, please. Li Xiuman maintained the respect in his tone.
"I'll answer first. Han replied calmly. "The reason why I want to engage in this project is actually to convince Kim Jong-ming to represent ......"
There was a commotion in the conference room, but it was only a moment, after all, all of them were high-level, there were not many people, and they were all mixed characters, and the basic cultivation was still there.
"That's right. "Han Changchang is still right. "My son has recently come out to do business, and I want to ask someone to help take care of ......"
"Is this appropriate?" Before Li Xiuman could speak, someone next to him asked.
"I don't think there's anything out of place. Han Chang shook his head and continued to answer calmly. "The company is a privately listed company, not a government department or a public institution, and there is no such thing as a civil service law. As the executive director of the company, from a moral and legal point of view, as long as it does not affect the interests of shareholders and does not deviate from normal work procedures, then everything I do should be worthy of my heart...... As for this matter, the chairman also said that from the perspective of the company's interests, the effect of what I have done is still very good!"
Li Xiuman nodded as usual: "Han Chang's words are very harsh when they hear this, but they do have their own reasoning...... Don't worry, President Kim, why did you choose Krystal for that TV series?"
"Since Han Changdu is so honest, I don't have anything to hide. Kim Young-min put down his hand supporting his chin and explained helplessly. "This TV series is not actually something that we actively mentioned, or at least not an opportunity that we unilaterally pursued. We actually hit it off with SBS at that time, and SBS's Minister Kim Yong-sub told me directly on the phone that if others go, they should follow the old rules, but if Krystal goes, there will be no unnecessary discussion and resource exchange, and there will be unconditional drama when she comes, and she can choose the role. The reason, I won't talk nonsense, everyone understands, and my choice is naturally to push the boat with the current. ”
"I see. Li Xiuman sighed slightly. "Your reasons...... How so...... It's really sufficient, whether it's selfishness, or pushing the boat along with the current, from the company's point of view, there really is nothing to blame. But ......"
Jin Yingmin's expression was serious, as if he had been prepared for this 'but', but Han Changchang still looked out the window casually, as if he was more interested in the spider man who was struggling to wipe the glass outside the window.
"But how do you say it?" Li Xiuman said seriously with a frown. "Just like what Han Changchang said, there are some things that you have to know how to look at from different angles, just like when we talked about Li Bingxian just now, everyone looks at it from different angles and draws different conclusions, which is also normal. As for me, I actually have my own feelings...... Do you know what I feel most about this?"
Everyone came interested.
"It's not Lee Byung-hun's disqualification, it's not that Lee Ji-yeon's stupidity, it's not Kim Da-hee's kid who ruined the whole group on impulse, and it's not that those two committees were played out in the hands ......of Kim Jong-ming," Li Xiuman shook his head helplessly. "It's the word 'fairness' emphasized by Kim Jong-ming in an interview!"
Everyone looked at each other.
"The word fairness is remarkable. Li Xiuman didn't seem to see everyone's puzzlement, or he didn't care at all. "But the irony is that even the word 'fair' is unfair to different people. As far as Jin Zhongming is concerned, what is fairness? His fairness is to do whatever he wants! That is, T Niang's those who follow me prosper and those who disobey me die!"
Everyone was awe-struck, and Han Chang's eyelids, who were sitting opposite Li Xiuman, jumped.
"What gives this fairness, gives that fairness? Others don't know about him, don't I know?" said General Assembly Li, who continued to pick at the skin of that hypocritical man. "Lee Byung-hun has had a holiday with Kim Jong-ming for a long time, and Kim Jong-ming pinched his nose to recognize the other party in order to show his bearing to Song Kang-ho and those who had just defected to him. And now? This little bastard is stable in the film circle, and he doesn't have to care about anyone's opinion for a long time, so he can't wait to find an opportunity to fall into the well and let Lee Byung-hun roll his calves! As for Han Hyo-joo, although I don't know what kind of personal relationship the two have, it must be a good relationship. And, although I don't know what the specific operation is all about...... But I assure you, Han Hyo-joo can get out and turn over so neatly, and even become a big hit after the Blue Dragon Movie at the end of the month, it must be Kim Jong-ming's handiwork! This person's so-called fairness is actually such a thing!"
At this point, the audience was silent, and President Li, who had not been addicted to talking for a long time, unscrewed the water cup with satisfaction, moistened his throat slightly, and then finally turned the topic back to his own company: "But let's talk about it, Jin Zhongming has the qualifications to be capricious, and has the ability to play that kind of 'fairness', do we have it? Can the company be so unscrupulous? I tell you clearly...... Old Han!"
"In!"
"President Kim!"
"In!"
"Listen up, both of you. Li Xiuman said solemnly. "Our company is not qualified to play that kind of hypocritical 'fairness', because we can't afford to play, we can only rely on real fairness. Yes, the times are constantly advancing, new things are constantly emerging, what was useful yesterday is a waste today, and no one knows what it will be if it can be used tomorrow...... But human nature has not changed for a thousand or 10,000 years! And a small company like ours, which does not rely on the village and does not go to the store, and operates cautiously, can survive all the way with its head held high, relying on some real things...... Like the real fairness I just said!"
Han Chang's Adam's apple trembled slightly with some uneasiness, which made President Li, who was staring at him, extremely satisfied.
"In good conscience. Li Xiuman retracted his gaze and spread his hands as if he was smiling. "Everyone outside says that we are a sweatshop, but since the establishment of the company, in addition to thinking that their wings are stiff and they want to go, is there any artist because they are not popular, because they are not popular, because they are not popular, because they are scandalous...... As for those who are willing to trust the company, they are old and expired, so they don't talk about it, but if they bring tangible help to the company, has the company been treated badly? Bao'er and Kangta are not here, otherwise what I said would be more reasonable!"
The crowd nodded their heads, for it was.
"You can't just say yes. President Li continued to train his subordinates. "The most important thing about fairness is actually the other side...... Fans outside always say that I am a tyrant, and they always say that I am stingy, and they don't agree to any artist who asks to change the terms and conditions, and they don't change the two sides of the game...... I don't want to explain to others, but those of you who want to take over my company must understand this reason - it's very simple, if I agree, it will be unfair to other artists in the company, and it will also be unfair to hundreds of employees up and down the entire company! If you eat more, others will eat less, but why? Your idol is a person, and someone else's idol is not a person? His assistant, driver, makeup artist, and even us, the shareholders and senior management, are not people? If it was really according to the logic of those fans, the company should have apologized a long time ago!"
Everyone burst into laughter.
"Dongshen's incident, we were grabbed by the tail, what a dumb loss, why don't I compromise, why do I have to stand up?" Li Xiuman smiled, but his tone became excited. "I tell you clearly, like Jin Zhongming, it is also for the two words 'fairness' in my own heart! It's just that he, Jin Zhongming, can pretend to be powerful in front of so many reporters, and I don't bother to do that! I will only tell you!"
At this point, Li Xiuman took a slight breath, and his tone calmed down: "Standing Han?"
"Yes!"
"President Kim?"
"In!"
"Now you know what's wrong with what you're doing, right?"
Executive Han was silent, but Kim Yingmin was convinced: "I understand what the chairman meant, the company is not a branch of cube, we have dozens of artists, and it is not a ...... that specializes in serving Sika and Krystal."
"But Zheng Xiuyan and Zheng Xiujing are also artists in our company, and they can't be choked. "Han Changchang is tough.
"Lao Han is right, so the most important thing in this is not to let other artists and companies have misunderstandings and ideas. As he spoke, Li Xiuman glanced at the people in the conference room. "Actually, I originally wanted to wait for lunch to talk to the two of you about the two sisters' recent overactivity, but since Han Changchang said something like moving closer to Jin Zhongming, I had to show my attitude in advance to prevent everyone from misunderstanding. Old Han, even if luna and Amber get the resources, but where do these resources come from, don't you really know? The two children don't think about it much, and our employees will think about it too! We can't let them think that we are doing things unfairly!"
"I reserve my opinion on this matter. Han Chang sighed suddenly. "But I will respect your attitude and the collective will of the company's top management. ”
"That's enough. Li Xiuman was quite pleased. "I have my principles, you have your principles, this is normal, the key is that you are willing to respect me at the company level, that's it!"
Everyone nodded.
"Let's go, since the communication is smooth, let's not say much, let's eat!" Li Xiuman simply stood up. "How about that French restaurant on Boulevard? It just opened, and I'll invite you to have a drink. ”
Everyone woke up like a dream, and they were also relieved, and then they stood up and walked out of the conference room with their own president one by one.
In this way, the group took the elevator all the way to the hall, and then when they came to the gate, the front desk waiting here suddenly stepped forward and handed over the prepared umbrellas one by one.
"Is it raining outside?" Li Xiuman walked out disapprerovingly while holding up his umbrella, and sure enough, it had begun to drizzle outside, and it seemed that the rain would intensify. "It's November, and when it rains like this, the weather will definitely be colder, so I'm really worried about the ...... at home Why is Sika getting drenched in the rain outside the company? And the camera? Which one is this singing?"
"Sika should be filming that show. An insider reacted immediately. "It seems that this week it is time for her to direct Kim Jong-ming to do something. ”
"It wasn't just a coincidence that I met her in the conference room before. Someone else followed up and explained. "She asked me to make an appointment for the conference room yesterday, saying that it was going to be used for filming, but she didn't expect you to come, so she should have temporarily transferred the shooting venue to downstairs now......"
"That's not mine. Li Xiuman held an umbrella and led the group to stop on the other side of the gate, and then looked at the artist who had just been borrowed by himself at the meeting. "But what about Sika herself, Jin Zhongming? What was she looking at with her head up...... Oh, that Spider-Man is still there?"
"It's raining, why is this spider-man still cleaning the glass?" Jin Yingmin on the side suddenly felt that something was wrong. "And why is it just a spider-man at work?"
"It's very simple," Han Chang squinted at the figure attached to the building, and then casually gave a standard answer. "This spider-man should be the representative of Jin Zhongming. Sika was supposed to be with the people from the TV station, in the conference room on the seventh floor to observe the conductor up close, but he didn't expect it...... President Lee, you'll come here. ”
"What's that?" Li Xiuman was the first to react, and he turned his head to look at a subordinate seriously. "The glass of our new building...... Is it soundproof?"
No one answered.
Moreover, as a gust of autumn wind blew through the rain, the company's senior management suddenly shivered collectively.
ps: Happy third day after Christmas, everyone,
