Chapter 689: Separation

PS: Tip from xiexieEhime!

Cui Zhengyuan has always done what he wants, and never drags his feet.

Since he felt that there were too many personnel in the trainee department and it was a little bloated, he immediately held a leadership meeting of the company as soon as possible to gather everyone to discuss the solution.

All the management of A.P Company came, and everyone sat in a circle, each of them holding the haode materials prepared in advance and studying.

Cui Zhengyuan waited for half an hour, and when they had almost digested the information, they began to preside over the meeting.

"I think everyone has seen that it is a pity that so many people and so many excellent trainees have been wasted there."

Han Chenghao echoed: "Yes, these are all talents who can do it, and the level is already in place." If you don't let people make their debut, it is estimated that people will have to find their own way out. When the time comes, won't we be working hard to make wedding dresses for others? ”

If they could, no entertainment company would want the talent they nurture to be pryed away.

But the reality is so helpless, and over-talent is also a trouble.

Quan Zhiying, the head of the planning department, said with a headache: "But the company's debut is already full, if you think about it for these trainees, I'm afraid the logistics department can't keep up." If nothing else, it may be difficult to coordinate with the assistant team alone. ”

Propaganda Minister Li Donghe also spoke: "There is also the problem of resources, at present, our Propaganda Department and Planning Department are responsible for the work of so many artists, and it has reached the limit. If you have to be in charge of the newcomer, I'm afraid it's a bit powerless. ”

"But that can't push these people out." Zhao Zhengjiu, the head of the trainee department, was anxious and retorted.

He can see that the meaning of the planning department and the publicity department is very clear, that is, they want to provide a guarantee for the debut of the newcomer, which is simply impossible.

He didn't know what the difficulties of these two departments were, but he was the head of the trainee department. The more trainees who can make their debut, the more they can prove that his ability is excellent.

Kwon Ji-young and Lee Dong-ha's approach is clearly blocking his path to ascent. Naturally, they are not happy.

Seeing that he was about to quarrel again, Cui Zhengyuan knocked on the table. "Okay, let's gather everyone here today to come up with a solution."

He spoke, and everyone naturally lost their temper.

Liu Zaishi put down the document at this time and asked: "Minister Quan and Minister Li also made it very clear, although talents are rare in trainees, the training of assistants and other personnel is more important. Without a team of haode assistants, there is no guarantee that these seedlings will be able to go smoothly after their debut. ”

has been the head of the performing arts department for so long, and Liu Zaishi has already exercised a good view of the overall situation.

Cao Qitai pondered for a moment. Said slowly: "Although our company is very large, there are many staff. But a turnip and a pit, there are almost no idlers. Moreover, the training of the assistant team does not have three or five years of internship experience, and it is simply impossible to become a talent. Even if you recruit from outside, you can't take charge of it alone, and you can't solve the problem. ”

After everyone spoke enthusiastically, they found that there was a dead end in the matter.

On the one hand, it is a pity that a large number of trainees are idle, and on the other hand, they cannot deploy the corresponding assistant team.

And even if the assistant team is fine, the planning department, the PR department, and even the public relations department can't take charge of it.

The key to whether an artist can become famous is in publicity and activities. If the planning, publicity, and public relations departments are unable to do anything, it will be difficult to move an inch.

Although everyone understands the reason, they tacitly do not propose to expand the scale of the enterprise.

It's not that these people have any selfish motives, and they love the power of the stack. Even those who think so. And only a few.

The key reason is that the current A.P company has reached the limit in terms of personnel size.

Expanding the staff will not serve the purpose of relieving stress. On the contrary, it will lead to a significant increase in administrative costs.

In turn, the increase in administrative costs will compress the profit margins of enterprises.

In summary. It is the interests of all that are at the detriment.

Cui Zhengyuan naturally understands this, so he didn't simply and rudely mention the expansion of the scale.

If others don't say it, he can't get through it himself.

And what kind of planning, publicity, public relations, assistant team, etc., in fact, is not the key to the problem.

A company with thousands of people can barely cope with it if it is dismantled and moved. At most, everyone is a little tired, and it's a big deal to give enough rewards.

The fundamental reason is that even if these trainees make their debut, there is no room for survival.

The scale of A.P's current artists has reached a terrifying level.

In terms of singers alone, there are Lee Jung-hyun, Kim Jong Kook, Lee Hyori, WonderGirls, SGWannaBe, Dark.L, Leessang, and Choi Jung-won himself.

Even S.M. at its peak, that's pretty much it.

With so many artists, it was enough for A.P to schedule the event from January 1st to December 31st.

In other words, just being in charge of the activities of these artists can already occupy a full year's time.

At this moment, if there is a newcomer debuting, even if you want to, you can't squeeze in.

Not to mention, there are actors such as Song Hye Kyo, Jun Ji Hyun, Ha Ji Won, Won Bin, Hyun Bin, Han Hyo-joo, Park Shin Hye, Yu Seung-ho, as well as funny artists such as Yoo Jae-seok, Kang Ho-dong, Kim Ji-dong, Jung Hyung-don, Haha, and Roh Hong-chul.

Just dealing with the activities of these people is enough to test the management skills of A.P.

If you add people in, you can really only catch the blind.

When everyone hesitated, it was still Liu Zaishi's sharp eyes, and he suddenly saw Cui Zhengyuan, who was the old god. "Hehe, I said don't worry about it. The bell still needs to be tied to the bell, and today this matter is proposed by our executive, so let's take a look at the solution given by our executive. ”

As soon as he said this, everyone suddenly realized that Cui Zhengyuan's quiet today was excessive, which could be called weird.

It wasn't until I saw his expression again that I realized that what Liu Zaishi said was true. Otherwise, how can a person who is a boss be so calm?

was peeped and hidden by Liu Zaishi, and Cui Zhengyuan was very dissatisfied. "Alas, in Brother Shi, I am giving full play to everyone's subjective initiative. The company has come to this day under the management of everyone, so I believe that as long as you give you a little time. Surely the perfect solution can be given out. ”

Listening to his statement, everyone was speechless for a while.

"I said, are we idle? Please, I'm going to Gangwon Province in the afternoon to discuss street advertising with merchants. Li Donghe was speechless, pointing to his watch and complaining.

"Well, I have one more vote in Congress in the afternoon." Han Sung-ho is the same, he is very dissatisfied with Choi Jung-won's pastime.

The most unhappy belonged to Liu Zaishi, "You're okay." After this meeting, I will go to the "Infinite Challenge" side for a meeting, and then I will go to the KBS side to talk with the "Happytogether3" crew about the content of the night's shooting. Then three p.m. to twelve p.m. It was a recording of "Xman". Then I had to record "HappyTogether 3". Until tomorrow morning, there is not even time to rest. ”

In the face of the surging emotions, Cui Zhengyuan cocooned himself. Rubbing his nose in embarrassment, he calmed down the anger and said, "Okay, okay, it's me who is wrong." Let me also talk about it, it is not a small matter, and I hope you are mentally prepared. ”

As soon as he said this, everyone fell silent.

"As a company, we've reached the limit. So I don't think it's as good as opening a branch. Some of the trainees and managers who can make their debut will be transplanted to the past. They are self-financed and independently. What do you think? ”

Cui Zhengyuan was a little apprehensive, and he didn't know if everyone would agree with his approach.

After all, this company has come to this day because of everyone's hard work.

Abruptly detached part of it out. Maybe some people can't accept it emotionally.

However, to his surprise, everyone unanimously applauded the idea.

"Well, that's good. And so it goes. It not only retains talents, but also reduces the pressure on the company's side. Killing two birds with one stone, it's a perfect strategy. Han Chenghao slapped his thigh. Agreed.

"Yes, the branch is responsible for the artist's debut and publicity, and there is no need to borrow the company's channels here, which can save us a lot of effort in the outreach department." Li Donghe also found out the advantages and elaborated.

"Not only that, but the artists launched by the branch can also echo the company's side and play a role in supporting each other." Quan Zhiying also thought of one aspect and said.

Since everyone has no opinion, Cui Zhengyuan is a lot more relieved.

"So who do you think the managers over there should send?"

When it came to the transfer of duties, everyone began to fall silent.

Personnel has always been the place where interests are most entangled. One bad one can cause an uproar.

Han Chenghao thought through and gave a solution. "I think it can be concurrently served by Director Cao Qitai. He is the director of our company, and he is also the representative of the branch, which can be said to be just right. It is not only convenient for management, but also can coordinate with each other, so as to avoid the situation of competing for resources by one's own family. ”

It is not uncommon for branches of entertainment companies to compete with each other or even viciously.

The most obvious example of this is the fierce competition between the various branches of Mnet in the previous life, and even between the headquarters.

There have also been cases between T-ara, Afterschool, and Ftisland at the same time, and they have fallen in love with each other.

Having a representative who serves on both sides is enough to prevent this from happening.

So, everyone nodded their heads and expressed their agreement.

In addition, the composition teacher and choreographer of the branch can make cameos by ready-made people from the company's side. In addition, Director Cao Qitai can also recruit some from outside through personal connections. Cui Zhengyuan emphasized.

A branch is a branch, even if it is the same signboard, it still needs to have some characteristics.

Otherwise, if you can't see the difference from the company, it will be difficult to survive. (To be continued......)
