Chapter 392: The Starship Officially Set Sail
Lin Yi stayed in Kakao Group for a whole day, signed several documents, held two meetings, and made a detailed schedule of the next work.
Before leaving work, Lin Yi sent a message to Cui Xueli, asking her to meet in the evening.
Ten o'clock in the evening.
Lin Yi came to the apartment that Cui Xueli rented, but now this apartment has been bought by him.
Entering the password and walking into the house, Lin Yi sat on the sofa and turned on the TV, waiting for Cui Xueli to come back.
It didn't take long for the door to sound.
"Oba, you're here."
As soon as Cui Xueli entered the door, she pounced on Lin Yi, who was walking towards her.
"Well, didn't the doctor let you have a good rest, why did you take on such a late job."
Lin Yi gently hugged the girl in front of him and found that she seemed to be thin again.
"The show I filmed today just needs to sit and not get tired at all."
"Then don't take this kind of work that ends so late in the future, wait for me to talk to your agent."
"Oba, no need, let's not talk about it for the time being, I want to do more things for f(x) before I leave the group." Cui Xueli hugged Lin Yi tightly, and her tone was a little depressed.
"You've really decided to quit?"
"Well, I don't want to drag them down, maybe if I quit, F(X) will develop better."
"I heard that Song Qian looked for you? How do you talk about it? ”
"Yes, Ernie came to me, and I told her what I really thought."
"Oh, so what's her opinion?"
"Although she didn't want me to leave the group, she finally respected my choice."
Lin Yi gently stroked Cui Xueli's hair, and he could feel that Cui Xueli didn't really want to quit the group, but she had to quit for some reason.
"Shirley, you give me a little time, I'll help you solve this matter, you don't have to leave the group, you can also cultivate your body."
When Cui Xueli heard this, she immediately let go of the hand holding Lin Yi, and looked at him with some surprise in her eyes.
"Oba, are you serious? What can you do? ”
"You just wait and see, I'll sell it first, hehe."
"Oh, just tell me, or I won't be able to sleep tonight."
Cui Xueli shook Lin Yi's arm coquettishly, and looked at him with excitement in her eyes.
Lin Yi scratched Cui Xueli's nose with his hand, and said with a smile:
"When I take your place as Teacher Li Xiuman, I can help you."
This time, Cui Xueli was even more shocked, and looked at Lin Yi with her mouth wide open, she understood the meaning of these words, this is the rhythm of acquiring the company?
"Oba, you.
。 Are you really going to buy our company? ”
"It's not an acquisition, after all, the relevant departments in South Korea will not allow a company like this to be acquired, but I will make Kakao the largest shareholder of your company, so that I can make some decisions directly, and your matter will be easily solved."
In fact, even if Lin Yi does not buy the shares of entertainment, as long as he speaks, I believe that both Li Xiuman and Kim Yingmin will give him this face.
However, Lin Yi didn't want to do this, he always had to pay back the favors, so it was better to settle it once and for all, and just directly control the entertainment.
"Oba, then you mean to let me keep the identity of f(x) and just not follow the group?"
"Yes, you still retain the identity of f(x), and you declare to the public that you have a physical problem and need long-term treatment, of course, you can occasionally participate in variety shows or something, what do you think?"
Cui Xueli hugged Lin Yi excitedly, this solution is really good.
"Oba, thank you."
"You still need to be so polite with me, and in the future, if you have anything, just tell me, don't hold it in your heart, you know?"
"Yes, got it."
Cui Xueli threw herself into Lin Yi's arms with a smile on her face, enjoying the warmth and peace of mind he brought her.
。
。
。
Early the next morning, Lin Yi gently kissed Cui Xueli, who was still sleeping, got dressed and went out.
Starship Company Building.
As soon as Lin Yi stepped into this building, someone spotted him and ran over to bow and say hello.
"Hello, President."
Lin Yi looked at the person who had always come, and after thinking for a while, he remembered who this person was, isn't this the actress recommended by the company when he was filming "The Inheritors".
"You're from the actor department, your name is Kim Ji Won."
"Yes, President, you remember my name."
"Of course, you were the only actress in the company when you first filmed the TV series."
"Yes, yes."
Kim Ji Won smiled slightly, time has passed, and now there are many actors in the actor department of Starship Entertainment, and there are even more actresses.
"Are you going out?"
"No, I've just arrived at the company and have a meeting today."
"Meeting? What meeting? ”
"It's the company's meeting on all the film and television drama shooting plans this year, and the company has notified that as long as there are artists who don't work today, they must come to the meeting."
"Oh? yes, then I'll take you to see. ”
Lin Yi came over today to learn about the projects that Starship Entertainment is promoting recently.
"Okay."
Jin Zhiyuan took Lin Yi to a conference room, and when he came in, there were already many people sitting here.
When these people saw Jin Zhiyuan, they were happy to say hello, but immediately saw Lin Yi behind her, and they all stood up nervously.
Why did the company's big boss suddenly appear here, hasn't it been almost two months since they all disappeared?
"It's going to be good."
"Well, hello, I'm just here to sit in on it today, feel free to do so."
Lin Yi smiled and sat down on an empty chair at the back.
At this time, an older man walked over quickly and said respectfully:
"President, you should sit in the main seat."
Lin Yi thought about it for a while, although there was nothing wrong with sitting here, it would make others feel uncomfortable, so he still stood up and walked to the main seat of the conference table and sat down.
Soon, the conference room was filled with people, including Kim Sang-woo, the vice president in charge of the film and variety show department, who was also the keynote speaker of today's meeting.
Lin Yi looked at the artists and staff sitting in the conference room, and he was also comforted, it seemed that his investment in the early stage of Starship did not disappoint him.
"President, why don't you say a few words first?"
Kim Sang-woo whispered to Lin Yi.
Lin nodded, since he came, he must have said a few words, then cleared his throat and said:
"Hello everyone, it's a pleasure to meet you here today, some of you have seen me, and some of you are meeting for the first time, first of all, welcome to join the big family of Starship Entertainment."
As soon as Lin Yi's words were finished, Kim Sang-woo took the lead in applauding, and there was a round of applause in the conference room.
Lin Yi stretched out his hand and pressed it down, and then said:
"Although we are only an entertainment company that has been established for three years, the company has achieved good results in movies, TV series, variety shows and idol industry. In particular, the film and television department has achieved brilliant results in the past year, "The Inheritors" and "My Love from the Star" have received very high ratings, and have also caused extensive social discussions, and even these two TV series have caused a boom in viewing throughout Asia, which has also made the actors who starred in these two TV series become well-known stars in Asia. Moreover, there are already entertainment companies in many countries that want to import the rights of these two TV series for remakes. ”
Lin paused, took a sip of water, and said:
"The company's first film "Pirates" has also been officially completed, I have seen the trailer, it is very good, whether it is special effects or the plot can be said to be excellent, I believe that this movie will detonate the entire summer this summer, I predict that the number of viewers of this movie will exceed 5 million."
"In addition, in terms of variety shows, the first girl group gfriend from a talent show created by Starship Entertainment has officially debuted, and the results are also quite good, and it is far ahead of the men's and women's groups that debuted in the same period in terms of popularity."
"I hope that in the next year, everyone can do their best to make our Starship Entertainment more brilliant."
As soon as the words fell, there was another round of warm applause.
"The next film and television dramas or other projects that the company wants to shoot will be introduced to you by Vice President Jin, and I will guarantee that as long as it is a film and television drama produced by the company, we will definitely give priority to the artists in our own company, as long as you have excellent business ability, you don't have to worry about personal resources."
Lin Yi smiled and nodded, and then signaled that the Kim Sang-woo meeting could officially begin.
"Okay, I'll tell you about the company's shooting plan for this year."
Kim Sang-woo took out a document and began to introduce it.
"This year, we Starship Entertainment plans to shoot 3~4 TV series, there are main dramas, there are also online dramas, the script is almost 80% complete, and the follow-up will be modified according to the actors who are determined to appear, which can be regarded as tailor-made, so the selected actors, you have to work hard, whether you can be popular or not depends on yourself, about the selection of roles, I will send it to your agent, if you feel that you are suitable, you will tell the company."
"In terms of the big screen, the company currently plans to shoot 2~3 movies this year, one of which is about to start casting recently, the theme is a police film, and the other film is planned to be filmed in August and September in the second half of the year, the theme is a doomsday disaster film, and the script of a movie is still improving, it is a love film, if it can't be filmed this year, it will definitely be filmed in the first quarter of next year, and those who feel that they are suitable can also sign up, and the company will arrange auditions uniformly."
"The chairman also said just now, I want to state here again, it's not that you will choose you when you sign up, the company's principle is to respect the opinions of directors and screenwriters, and the company only guarantees that under the same conditions, it will give priority to the artists in the company."
As soon as Kim Sang-woo finished speaking, one of them stood up and asked:
"Vice President Kim, how can that be considered the same condition?"
"Let's say there are only two people left to compete for a role in the end, and if one of them is from our starship, it is to choose our own people."
Immediately afterwards, the artists in the audience all asked their concerns, and Kim Sang-woo and the other two ministers in charge of the drama and film departments also answered the questions raised by the artists one by one.
。
。
。
At the end of the meeting, after the artists all left, Kim Sang-woo made a suggestion to Lin Yi.
"President, you see that there are more and more artists in the company now, and there are many people who don't know each other, does the company organize an event to gather all the artists together and engage in a team building, just so that we can also make this event a variety show, so that the general public knows who the artists of our starship are."
Lin Yiyi listened to it one by one and thought about it, the idea proposed by Kim Sang-woo is really good, if the artists of the same company still don't know each other after going out, it will be too much for others to laugh at.
Moreover, team building can not only increase cohesion, but also enhance the company's popularity.
However, Lin Yi is worried about other problems, of course, there are disadvantages to engaging in team building, that is, this kind of activity is easy to breed feelings, and the channels for artists to make friends are very narrow.
It's just that Kim Sang-woo's proposal does have to be implemented, and the benefits of this activity always outweigh the disadvantages, so it can only be said that we should try to avoid such a thing as falling in love in the company.
"Okay, you communicate and coordinate with President Cui about this, and you must let all the artists in the company participate, including actors, idols, and variety artists, try to coordinate the itinerary as much as possible, in addition, you ask Fang Shihyuk over there, bighit's artists will participate, although they are independent labels, but they always belong to our starship, and we must treat them equally."
"Yes, I'll talk to President Cui and President Fang."
"Also, although the company does not interfere with the artist's freedom of love, it still has to be avoided if it can be avoided, you know."
"Yes, I understand, President, don't worry, I'll find a way to stop this."
"It's a bit too much to say that it's stopped, it's just that artists fall in love, especially in the company, if you break up, wouldn't it be more embarrassing to meet in the company in the future, so in order to avoid this situation, you say hello to the artist's agent in advance, so that they can be optimistic about the people they bring."
"Yes, President, I see."
"Well, besides, have you had any problems with your work lately?"
"No, President, everything is going well on my side." Kim Sang-woo replied with an oath.
"Okay, then, I'll give you another task."
"President, please speak."
"You give me statistics on the more popular variety shows in South Korea recently, and then send someone to talk about copyright issues."
"President, do you have any plans?" Kim Sang-woo asked suspiciously, his own company has a variety show department, why do you want to buy other people's copyrights.
"Well, I plan to replicate the variety show in South Korea in Huaxia to see the effect, if it is feasible, this will not give the artists and staff in the company an additional source of income." Lin said with a smile.
"Okay, I see, I'll do it right away." Kim Sang-woo is also a little excited, after all, Huaxia is a vast market, not only idols, actors and variety artists also want to develop there, who doesn't want to make more money.
"Just talk about this slowly, my company in Huaxia is estimated to take a while to be established, but when you go to talk, you must buy out the copyright, and the time is based on 5 years."
"Yes, I know, President, don't worry, I'll follow up on this matter myself."
"Okay, if you encounter any problems here, give me feedback in time."
"Okay."
。
。
。
After talking to Kim Sang-woo about some other things, Lin Yi returned to his office in Starship.
Standing by the bright glass window, Lin Yi looked at the scenery in the distance, and sighed in his heart: After the foundation laid in the past few years, today's starship can set sail and accelerate forward.
