Chapter 110: The Game at the Meeting
"President Kim, if you do this, are you sure that the other members of the board will agree?"
In the spacious office, several planners and key members of the board of directors sat on the sofa of the reception, and everyone on the coffee table had an open document in front of them. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Everyone had different degrees of surprise on their faces, and one of them couldn't help but ask.
Kim Young-min stood at the window with his back to them, and did not reply immediately, and it took a long time before he turned around.
He glanced at all the people in the room and said, "This is a process that must be experienced, rather than being beyond the control of the company, it is better to firmly grasp the initiative in your own hands from the beginning."
"But......" said one of the board members, "if something like this suddenly happened in Girls' Generation, the company's stock price would definitely fluctuate a lot, are you sure the other board members would agree?" You know not everybody is going to take the long term as you do, and there are people who are secretly waiting for a board upheaval."
"It's been 6 years since Girls' Generation debuted, and they still expect the members of Girls' Generation to listen to the company as obediently as they did at the beginning? Their love ban has long passed, and everyone knows who they are in contact with in private, and besides, am I not prepared? Kim Young-min pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose and explained, "I'll explain everything to them at the board meeting, all you have to do now is to hold a board meeting in my name."
"I see," everyone nodded, and began to prepare for what Kim Young-min had said.
Returning to the window, Kim Young-min opened the window, and the cold wind hit him, blowing a pain on his face, as if he couldn't feel it at all, but showed a mysterious smile.
Jung so-hoon, don't let me down.
The work efficiency of S&M is still very fast, and the notice issued by Kim Young-min in the morning was successfully held in the afternoon.
In the large conference room on the top floor of the company, the board members gathered together, and the huge oval-shaped conference table was packed.
The conference room was very noisy.
Everyone, regardless of faction, was talking to their peers in a whisper, wondering why Kim Young-min was holding the meeting.
The well-informed ones only know that the topic of this meeting is Girls' Generation.
As a major shareholder, Lee so-man naturally sat in the seat next to Kim Young-min, and he looked a little out of place from the moment he entered the conference room.
They didn't discuss with each other like everyone else, and sat there expressionless and silent, like an old monk who had settled down.
Or it can be said that the spectator just lingered for a moment longer than before when his gaze swept over Kim Youngmin's position, and if you look closely, you can still see a trace of complex emotions in the depths of his eyes.
That position used to be his, and now he's working hard to get back to that position.
Lee so-man knows very well why Kim Young-min held a meeting on Girls' Generation, outsiders think that Girls' Generation is a girl group launched by Kim Young-min, after all, when everyone was only focusing on men's groups, Kim Young-min mainly built a girl group.
Because of this, Girls' Generation was labeled as Kim Youngmin's faction, but in fact it was not.
It is true that Girls' Generation is Kim Young-min's plan, but Kim Young-min has not yet come to power at that time, where does he get so much power? At the beginning, the company still had the final say in Li Xiuman.
Therefore, we are basically involved in the whole process of the project, including the selection of personnel.
At the beginning of the period, there were more than a dozen reserve members in Girls' Generation, and the goal of development was also the female version of 'SJ', but in the end, there were only 9 people left.
Most of those people were mainly added to the group by Kim Young-min-ri.
As a result, most of the members of Girls' Generation are on Lee Xiuman's side, and this project is equivalent to being scrapped.
Girlhood has become a thorn in Kim Youngmin's side.
Otherwise, how could it be possible to launch another FX in '09? It's a pity that FX didn't do it well and didn't achieve the expected effect in Kim Young-min's mind, or it never really showed the potential to succeed Girls' Generation.
is the so-called deep love and hatred, and the girlhood, which was originally Kim Youngmin's proud work, became a thorn in Kim Youngmin's side because of the members' problems.
And the company's position has become more and more solid, and it has become the company's golden signboard.
A long time ago, Kim Young-min wanted to move Girls' Generation to make way for FX.
But now this road is not working, and if you want to make way, you can only make way for the new girl group in the future.
One thing is clear, that is, Kim Young-min will definitely move Girls' Generation.
That's the energy of a big company, not overly dependent on one combination, unlike Cube, which has to compromise with BTOb.
Thinking of this, Li Xiuman glanced at Kim Young-min again, the latter, like him, basically did not have any expression, and was closing his health.
"In order to eliminate my influence in the company, can't you wait to get to this point?" Li Xiuman sneered.
He can object, but he won't.
Kim Young-min gambles again, and he gambles again, betting on the shock caused by Girls' Generation, whether the board of directors will choose to accept it, or choose to let him Lee so-man come out of the mountain again to preside over the situation.
The personnel who should have arrived were all there, Kim Young-min glanced at Li Xiuman's position, and then retracted his gaze, this time, he wanted to completely dispel Li Xiuman's idea of returning to the highest position of power in the company.
"If everyone comes, then let's go straight to the topic of the meeting today" Kim Young-min began to say, "The theme of today's meeting is about the relationship between the members of Girls' Generation, I have an idea and proposal here that I think is quite good, I want to get the approval of the board members, the proposal is on the document in front of you, let's take a look at it first"
Kim Young-min's voice fell, and the room became quiet, leaving only the sound of 'swish' flipping.
Li Xiuman also picked up the document and flipped through it, and browsed the general content at a very fast speed, his heart beat violently.
The content was a bit shocking to him.
When did Kim Young-min get in touch with Jung so-hoon?
The benefits of this series of actions to the company...... Li Xiuman put the document back, continued to maintain the expressionless posture before, and waited and saw for a while.
The rest of the board was more or less shocked.
"President Kim, this ...... Are you sure that Jung so-hoon Xi or the whole BTOB will be so cooperative? One of the board members asked.
"Hehe" Kim Young-min smiled and explained, "This is not a reciprocal deal, it was Jung so-hoon xi who took the initiative to cooperate with our company, not that our company wanted to contact him, not to mention, after a few contacts, I think that although Jung so-hoon xi did not say so, in fact, in his heart, he has put his studio in the most important position"
"It's acceptable for BTOB to lose a little, after all, BTOB's economic company is under the name of CUBE and not in his private studio"
"And how can you be sure that Cube will allow him to do that?" The man asked rhetorically, it was true that Jung so-hoon was free, but not completely out of the cube's control.
"This involves the content of their economic contract, anyway, the dominant power is in our hands, whether to cooperate or not is his business, I am just here on this proposal, I need to obtain everyone's consent, after all, if this really happens, the fluctuation of the company's stock price is inevitable," Kim Yingmin said.
"What about the benefits? Where are the company's interests? A board member with a large stake in the board asked.
The vast majority of people here are not interested in knowing the specific process, they just need to know how much benefit they can get in the end.
"Well, a rising EXO and a brand-new girl group, without the obstacle of BTOB, coupled with the company's vigorous publicity, next year is destined to be the year when EXO reaches the top, and the company can also vigorously launch a new girl group to take over," Kim Yingmin explained.
"That's not right, is it?" The member retorted, "It's a bit inadequate compared to the benefits created by Girls' Generation, and the company has to take a big risk."
"Hehe" Kim Young-min smiled disdainfully, "How long can girlhood last?" Or do you think they can play the shackles of a girl group, even if they are married, there are still so many people who like them? I don't think you've been blinded by the annual financial statements and forgotten one of the most important things? So it's been 6 years since Girls' Generation debuted? ā
The board member was speechless at once, yes, military service is the shackles of the boy group, so love and marriage are destined to be the shackles of female artists.
The actor is okay, but the idol is not good, in terms of romance, it is impossible for the company to restrict the members of Girls' Generation, if it is suddenly exposed, who can say what will happen, and in that unknowing situation, what kind of loss will the company have? The unknown is the scariest thing.
"Rather than losing the initiative, it is better for us to take the initiative into our own hands, besides, this is just a small experiment, if it works, we can all use this method in the future, after the artist's love ban expires, we will not be so passive" Kim Yingmin said eloquently, "Moreover, the success of this planning can also allow the company to win in the men's and women's group market"
"Everyone should already know what happened in the past two years, if BTOB stands in the way, EXO is destined to be impossible to reach the top, right? There is a girl's generation, and it is difficult for other girl groups under the company to have a chance to stand out."
"I don't know what Li Xiuman Xi thinks? For this matter? A member of Kim Young-min's faction suddenly asked.
Li Xiuman's eyelids picked, and he still said expressionlessly, "If everything is really as described by President Kim Young-min, it is indeed a good proposal that can win the future for the company, which in itself is a matter of investment choice, whether you want the present or the future."
Li Xiuman still sees the problem very thoroughly, and his speech is quite level, in fact, this person is forcing him to express his position, but he has changed his way to avoid taking the lead in expressing his position.
"Then let's raise our hands" Kim Young-min smiled very confidently, it seemed that his proposal should have been passed, and now only the last procedure remained.
The people of Kim Young-min's faction raised their hands in an instant, and then some people followed one after another, until the representative of Ai Hui, the second holder of S&M shares, raised his hand, and the rest of the people raised their hands.
Li Xiuman has been watching everything in front of him with a cold sideline attitude, and chose to abstain.
In the end, Kim Young-min still achieved his desired goal at the meeting.
"I hope that President Kim Young-min will really bring good benefits to the company and a longer-term future," several directors reminded after the agreement was reached.
"Hehe, I'm also one of the directors of the company, do you think I'm going to make fun of this?" Kim Young-min said with a smile.
"Then we are waiting for your good news"
This concludes the meeting.
Li Xiuman stood up directly, just looking at each other face to face with Kim Youngmin.
"President Kim Young-min, I hope you can make good use of this opportunity, otherwise what you least want to happen will happen, and you won't have any room to resist at that time" Li Xiuman sneered and reminded kindly.
"I will also give you this sentence, Li Xiuman senior," Jin Yingmin said with a smile, "I think you should just go to the pension obediently and wait for the dividends."
"Then let's see," Li Xiuman turned around and left.
Kim Young-min kept sneering, the game between the two reached the most critical time, who loses and who is out.
Coming out of the conference room, Kim Young-min went straight back to his office, accompanied by his staff in the company.
"Now that we've got the approval of the board of directors, then you can go and prepare, first go and inform Han Shenghao Xi and ask him to communicate with the members of Girls' Generation first, and then I will personally come forward to tell them that "he is methodically ordering everything to be done next" and then help me contact Jung so-hoon, after all, his attitude is also the key to this project."
"Well, is there anything else?"
"It's gone," Kim Young-min shook his head and waved his hand and said, "You all go out first, I'll think about how to convince Jung so-hoon Xi to agree."
The others immediately left the room.
Leaving Kim Young-min alone in his seat, he kept thinking about how to get Jung so-hoon to agree to his plan.
The price to be paid by Jung so-hoon is not small.
If you think about it carefully, it is actually a multiple-choice question, whether S&M wants stability in the present, or chooses to invest in the future.
Jung so-hoon is a trade-off between the team and the studio.
For both sides, it is a difficult choice to choose. (To be continued.) )
