Chapter 167: Missed Opportunity

Liu Zaishi's worries are not superfluous, after all, in the eyes of most people, C.P.C is an economic company that focuses on cultivating actors, and almost all resources are inclined to this aspect, and the two of them only have gagman is dispensable for the company, if the two still fail to reflect their own value, then being swept away by the company in the future is an inevitable end.

However, there is one thing that Liu Zaishi and Ji Shizhen would never have thought of is that in Cui Zhenlong's mind, the status of the two is not weaker than other artists in the company, and even Liu Zaishi is more important. To put it in a more vulgar way, he is optimistic about the two not in the present, but in their future.

How much income can Yoo Jae-seok and Ji Seok-jin bring to the company, in fact, Choi Jin-ryong doesn't attach much importance to it, even if it is Yoo Jae-seok, who is already a "national MC" in the future, he is fortunate to have been running all kinds of trips for a whole year, and the annual income of the full count is about 3 billion won, and after deducting the artist's share, tax part and other expenses, it will only be more than one billion yuan that can finally fall into the company's pocket.

This seems to be a lot of money, but Cui Zhenlong's mind also has a lot of more profitable ideas, even if he writes a novel in the name of C-Loong and publishes it, the income is much higher than this figure. What's more, the current Liu Zaishi has not really developed, and his income is even less pitiful, and the two are completely incomparable.

Cui Zhenlong values Liu Zaishi and others more in the future The huge network in the entertainment industry and the influence of the three major TV stations, you must know that although Liu Zaishi is still an MC in the later stage, he can participate in the planning and production of the program, and can even affect the final decision of PD.

This kind of invisible benefit is too valuable for C.P.C. to be able to indirectly further befriend the major TV stations through guò, and exert some influence is one aspect, and in the future, it is also quite a good means to promote the film and television produced by its company through the channel of guò variety shows.

But in fact, in addition to these considerations, Cui Zhenlong also has a more sinister intention: if any TV station dares to make some disgraceful small actions in private one day in the future and secretly stumble on the C.P.C company, he doesn't mind giving the other party a hard time, and withdrawing all the company's hosts and gagman from the TV station at the same time..."Hehe~~ There is no well-known MC to suppress the scene? Let's see how you continue to do variety shows! Do you have the ability to go up and play it yourself?! Declining ratings? Sit back and see how you end! … Then is the time for you to come to me! ”

This is the so-called "shop bullying" or "customer bullying shop", in essence, it means the same thing, whichever side is stronger will inherently occupy the initiative, and the TV station can suppress the artist management company, and vice versa.

The most typical example is the conflict between S.M and Mnet TV in the future, what is the focus of the dispute between the two for the time being, at least when S.M unilaterally announced that all the song sources of its singers were removed from the shelves of Mnet, for Mnet, a music TV station, the loss of interests and the weakening of influence are immeasurable.

Of course, this kind of practice hurts others and hurts oneself, and the gains outweigh the losses, and Cui Zhenlong doesn't want to do it unless it is absolutely necessary.

"In Brother Shi and Brother Shi Zhen, in fact, the two of them don't have to worry about acting at all, these are redundant. I can't guarantee whether the company can treat its artists equally, but at least it is certain that there will be no shortage of opportunities for every artist, whether you are an actor or a gagman! ”

Cui Zhenlong paused in his tone when he said this, reached out and picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip, so that the two people in front of him had time to digest the meaning of his words, and then he changed the topic and continued: "In fact, the company already has two variety show planning proposals in hand, and President Xu Zhenghuan is actively contacting major TV stations, hoping that the two sides can cooperate and participate in these two projects." If you are a qiē shun lì, these two variety shows will be launched one after another next year... Of course, the two of you are the only hosts under the company, needless to say, the company will definitely push Brother Shi and Brother Shi Zhen to the top positions, and you will all really take the lead when the time comes, don't embarrass the company! ”

Hearing such sudden good news, Ji Shizhen, who had never said a word, couldn't help but ask, "Then president, can you first reveal what form the new show belongs to?" ”

"Hehe~~ I can be sure that one of them is an intelligence show, which is very suitable for Brother Shi Zhen's style, and the other one, there is intelligence and physical confrontation, in short, it is a new variety show type, and the number of MCs required is relatively large, and the two of you also have a chance."

When Ji Shizhen heard Cui Zhenlong say this, he also had a certain degree of confidence in his heart, and secretly decided to go all out to fight for the position of MC of the previous intelligence show, as for the latter show, he still decided to give up automatically, and wanted to leave this opportunity to Liu Zaishi, so that the two of them would have a greater chance of being on top respectively, and there would be no competition with each other.

However, how could he have predicted that the influence of the latter show in South Korea and even Asia in the future would be much higher than that of the former, and it was the so-called "kindness" at this time that also made Ji Seok-jin lose an opportunity to become a "national MC" in vain, of course, he still doesn't know what he missed with his hasty decision. also let this big brother Wang Nose make fun of himself on this topic in a variety show in the future and beat his chest and feet, laughing and saying that if it weren't for the soft-heartedness of the year, Liu's title of "National MC" on the stone might be his.

Unlike when they came, Yoo Jae-seok and Ji Seok-jin, who got the good news in advance, finally left the president's office with a smile on their faces and satisfaction. And not long after that, Cui Zhenlong's left and right talents finally came late.

After Xu Zhenghuan apologized, he went straight to the point, looked at the record book in his hand and began to report to Cui Zhenlong on the operation of C.P.C. company, including total income, various expenses, profit margins, as well as the number of new personnel, position arrangements, etc., Cui Zhenlong already knew about these situations from the information just now, but he still listened to the report patiently.

"Very good! C.P.C's rapid development is inseparable from President Seo Jung-hwan's contributions," Cui Zhenlong praised him, anyway, he didn't have to pay for this kind of good talk, at most he would open his mouth and pay some spit. But no matter what kind of feelings the subordinates have in their hearts when they hear this, at least one thing is certain, good words are pleasing to the ear, and everyone loves to listen to them.

For this kind of evaluation, Xu Zhenghuan also modestly did not even dare to say it, insisting that it was not his own credit, but the result of the joint efforts of all employees of the entire company. Then he changed his words and said: "Now it's about to be the end of the year, and the awards ceremonies of major TV stations are about to start one after another. ”

Cui Zhenlong also understands the implicit meaning of the other party's words, although the awards ceremonies of major TV stations every year belong to the act of dividing pork, but it is not the result of the game behind the scenes of various economic companies, and the purpose is naturally self-evident, it is to push their own artists to the top as much as possible!

Although on the surface, these honors seem to belong to individuals, but as long as they can be hung up with the titles of Best Actor, Best Actress, etc., the value of this artist will "rub" upward, and the price of endorsement fees for advertisements and the like is completely different. Therefore, as long as there is an opportunity, economic companies don't mind spending a lot of effort to win some awards for their artists.

Although Cui Zhenlong didn't feel very interested in these things, he didn't want to chill the artists under his company, so he still nodded and said: "In this regard, President Xu, you can do it yourself, spend the money that should be spent, use the resources that should be used, and get those awards that should be ours!" ”
