Standing on your own and creating your own office is an idea that most artists have, but not every artist dares to try. If the artist is too busy with his work, has too many schedules, and does not have the professional knowledge to manage and operate the company, he will only end up in bankruptcy and liquidation.

There is another reason why many people dare not test the waters, that is, the top artists, in the eyes of large companies and large groups, they are nothing at all. If this company is running well and profitable, these large companies and large groups don't mind using various means to acquire or forcibly annex them, which celebrities and the fans behind them are simply a joke for the presidents and presidents of these large companies and groups.

Although the artist office also operates in the entertainment industry, the operation of the office will touch the interests of many parties, and it is already a serious business. If it doesn't work well, it may be that your hard-earned money goes down the drain. If it works well, it is more likely to become a sweet and delicious piece of meat in the eyes of others. In this case, who would dare to rush into this business circle that eats people and does not spit out bones?

Because of various reasons, people who have enough appeal in the Korean entertainment industry, such as Bae Yongjun, Jang Dongjian and Rain, need to find a strong backer to support them. Pei Yongjun found the two major groups of South Korea's SoftBank and IMX as support, Zhang Dongjian found his old club TCE as a backer, and Rain was also entangled with JYP, and directly found Zixi and asked him to cooperate with him. The reason why these people are like this is because as artists, they are always on the weak side, and without strong support, they can only be kneaded by others.

Suddenly hearing that Kim Jong Kook wanted to set up his own door after the contract expired, Zixi's first reaction was that he wanted to cooperate with him, but he quickly dispelled this idea. Others may not know the way, but Zixi knows Kim Jong Kook's character very well, he is the kind of person who is unwilling to be criticized and does not like to be criticized, to put it simply, Kim Jong Kook's character is relatively strong.

"Brother Zhong Guoge is embarrassed because I am the director of TCE?" Zixi looked at Kim Jong Kook with a hesitant face with an inquiring gaze.

Although TCE is a Korean brokerage company, the conditions for treating artists are very favorable, otherwise there would not be so many top artists joining it, and some have even joined for more than ten years, and they have never thought of leaving. It's not that the artists don't want to change their courts, but they are all mixed in this circle, and they can more or less learn about the situation of other firms or brokerage companies. TCE is indeed very good in terms of treating artists, whether it is remuneration or work arrangement, it is many times better than the conditions and attitude of other companies outside and treating artists.

During the administration of President Yang Hyun-seok, he worked hard to build the company into a big family, whether it is an employee or an artist, returning to the company is like returning to a warm family, so that everyone has a sense of belonging, so that few people will choose to turn their backs on the company. Outside in the wind and waves, since there is a good foothold, who will disturb themselves?

Hearing Zixi point out directly, Kim Jong Kook breathed a sigh of relief and said: "I am good friends with you, and it is well known that you are the director of TCE, I have been in TCE for many years, and Zhilu Dao Company has taken good care of me." However, I thought about it for a long time in the army, and even after I was discharged from the army, I quietly thought about it, even if the company took care of me, some of my ideas, the company could not be completely satisfied. After all, I am not the only artist in the company, and all aspects need to be taken care of. ”

Kim Jong Kook said this, and Zixi also understood the reason. It is precisely because TCE is the No. 1 agency in South Korea that there are too many singers and actors. Everyone has their own dreams, each has their own ideas, and the company can't meet or take care of them one by one. For some artists with ideals, leaving is an inevitable path.

The reason why Kim Jong Kook confessed to Zixi frankly was that he was worried that Zixi would misunderstand that he would cross the river and tear down the bridge, after all, after he disbanded the group TURBO and flew solo, he joined TCE and chose to become a SOLO singer, and he also created his own glorious era in TCE, achieving the title of SOLO's "Triple Crown". Now that he is popular, but he wants to leave, it is inevitable that some people will say that he is the kind of person who forgets his righteousness for profit.

To be honest, with Zixi as a TCE director, of course he doesn't want Kim Jong Kook to leave TCE, even if he never cares about TCE affairs, but with Kim Jong Kook, a top SOLO singer in the music industry, in the company, then it is a banner and a kind of appeal.

But as a friend, he also understands Kim Jong Kook's choice. No matter how well the company treats itself, after all, it can't be exhaustive. When there is a conflict between ideals and work, Kim Jong Kook is the kind of strong person, and he is unwilling to bow down. In this case, leaving is the best choice for him.

Zixi nodded helplessly and said with a smile: "Brother Zhong Guo, I understand what you mean." From the company's standpoint, I don't want you to leave like that. But as a friend, I understand and understand what you mean. Zixi stood up, patted Kim Jong Kook's muscular arm, and said, "You can do whatever you want, don't worry about my thoughts, even if you leave the company, aren't we good friends?" ”

Zixi's position determines his attitude, Kim Jong Kook regards Zi Xi as a good friend, but when it comes to interests, Kim Jong Kook does not dare to guarantee that he will not turn against Zi Xi. Now hearing Zixi say this, his heart couldn't help but relax, and his tense face before was also soothed.

Cha Tae-hyun has been watching nervously, Kim Jong Kook wants to leave TCE, and he is the first to know about it. I also persuaded Kim Jong Kook at the beginning, after all, TCE was too good and good to him, even if he enlisted in the army, he never forgot him. After he was discharged from the army, he was not immediately forced to start the company to make up for the losses in the past two years. For such a good company, just leaving it is not a loss.

But as a member of the "Year of the Dragon Club" (Jang Hyuk, Cha Tae-hyun, Hong Kyung-min, Yoo Seung-jun, and Kim Jong-kook laughingly call themselves the Year of the Dragon Club because they all belong to the dragon), Cha Tae-hyun also understands Kim Jong-kook's ideals and philosophies in music. He wants to make his own music, but TCE can't fully meet Kim Jong Kook's idea because it wants to meet the needs of the market. This is how the conflict, or the misunderstanding of ideas, is created.

If it had been before, Kim Jong Kook might not have done this. But during the two years of military service, he thought too much. Even after leaving the barracks, he rested at home, and he struggled with this aspect many times, so he finally decided to do it.

After making his choice, Kim Jong Kook's first thought was Cha Tae-hyun. When he told Cha Tae-hyun what he thought, the usually swaggering friend was also taken aback. Not only because Kim Jong Kook actually wants to leave South Korea's No. 1 Brokerage Company, but also because Kim Jong Kook's idea is too sudden and unexpected.

After talking to Kim Jong Kook, Cha Tae-hyun also understood his thoughts, but another question came up. They are not worried that TCE will react too strongly to Kim Jong Kook because he is leaving, because TCE is not S.M, Yang Hyun-seok is not Lee so-man, and TCE has its own way of doing things.

The only thing they are worried about is Zixi, because Zixi is the director of TCE, but the real thing is that TCE belongs to Zixi's family. As a heavyweight of TCE in the music industry, Kim Jong Kook's departure will inevitably have a great adverse impact on the company, just like Zhang Dongjian's departure before, there have been rumors that this is a harbinger of TCE's prosperity and decline, and this is Zhang Dongjian who stood up to explain the impact to eliminate the impact. But because of this, this may become the fuse for Kim Jong Kook and Zi Hee to completely turn against each other.

Now seeing that Zixi didn't have a strong reaction to this, not only Kim Jong Kook breathed a sigh of relief, Cha Tae-hyun and Shu were a lot more comfortable, he didn't want to turn his friends against each other because of this matter, he was very embarrassed to stand between the two.

"Hee-hee! In that case, shouldn't Zhong Guo treat us to a good meal? How can you say that you are the future president, you won't be stingy with such a small amount of money, right? In order to liven up the atmosphere, Cha Tae-hyun wrapped one hand around Kim Jong-kook's neck and smiled.

"Oh? It turns out that Brother Zhong Guoge has already thought about what to do after setting up his own portal? Zixi also smiled and teased: "It can't be that I want to leave the company a long time ago, I'm the last one to know the truth, right?" ”

"No, it's not." Kim Jong Kook glared at Cha Tae-hyun, a guy who didn't choose what to say, and explained: "Actually, it's just an immature idea, but I haven't started planning yet. Today's work is still to prepare for the return, how to say that I still have a contract with the company for more than a year, and I must have a beginning and an end, a beginning and an end. ”

Zixi nodded and didn't say anything more. Kim Jong Kook is determined to leave, standing in the company's position, of course Zixi is unwilling to let him go. In the shoes of a friend, you should bless and help him. Zixi's identity is too embarrassing, and she can only hope that after Kim Jong Kook leaves the company, everything will be fine. Because in this matter, he can't do too much, otherwise it will be a slap in the face of TCE executives, which will have a bad impact on the company. If you don't want to be in a dilemma, then you can't see it and let the company's senior management have a headache.

Putting down their worries, the three of them simply sat in the corner of the wedding venue and chatted in a low voice. Looking at the artist friends who came in one by one, there are familiar and unfamiliar, there are senior artists, and there are also junior newcomers. Zixi had to sigh that the cultivation mechanism of Korean stars is too powerful, and hematopoiesis is too fast and too fast. He has only been away for half a year, and countless new faces will emerge, all of which will make him think in his heart whether he is old or not.

"Zixi! Are you going to return to the Korean film and television industry? After chatting casually for a while, Cha Tae-hyun turned the topic back to the circle and asked suspiciously: "The last time you had dinner with director Kang Di-gyu and director Kim Kyu-tae, many people wondered if you wanted to return to the Korean film and television industry, and even recently there have been speculations in the media and on the Internet. It's just that you haven't responded, and you haven't even shown your face, so it's just a guess. Tell your brother about it, do you have this kind of thought? ”

"Yes! I saw it too. Kim Jong Kook also nodded and said: "And it's conclusive, even the company has a lot of rumors, but they are blocked by high-level people and don't let people talk nonsense." ”

This is not the first time Cha Tae-hyun has asked about this, and the rest of his friends in the circle, such as Jang Hyuk, Jang Dongjian, Hyun Bin, Song Yoon-a, Choi Ji-woo, Yoon Eun-hye, etc., all called to inquire after seeing the report.

Zixi also knew that it was impossible to hide this matter, not only did so many people see them in the 63 Building that night, but also Jiang Hudong and his party, and they couldn't hide it if they wanted to.

"There's such a thing, but now the agent is in talks with KBS about joining the crew, so I don't want to say more." Zixi said frankly.

"Is it KBS TV? TV series? Cha Tae-hyun and Kim Jong-kook didn't expect Zi-hee to take over the TV series. With Zixi's current identity and status, it is not so simple to take on a TV series, and the involvement is very complicated.

"Yes, it's a TV series. But I haven't even scratched the eight characters, and it's hard to say now. ”

Cha Tae-hyun and Kim Jong-kook nodded wisely and did not continue to ask. They all understand that the impact of a superstar like Zixi signing a TV crew is very huge, and it can't be explained clearly in a few words.
