When he got home, Chen Chen carefully read the script of "Witty Prison Life" he received.

Very satisfied, Chen Chen couldn't say anything else except satisfied.

If we include the subsequent results that we learned about in advance, Chen Chen might say that he is very satisfied.

But Chen Chen still didn't understand why he had resistance in his heart at that time. This seemed to have become a mystery, a mystery that he didn't know when he would be able to solve.

……

……

Untied.

Chen Chen went to the set of "Secret Forest" and after chatting with others after filming his guest appearance, he probably figured out why.

At the same time, Chen Chen also applauded him for forcing down his feelings and choosing to accept the script. It was really wise.

“We’re coming back, early August.”

After Pei Zhuxuan finished her trip, she happily went to Chen Chen to report the good news to him.

"Is a little more than two months enough time?" Chen Chen was a little worried, "You still have to prepare for the concert at the same time."

"It doesn't matter, the commercial performance schedule will be stopped at that time, and I will just concentrate on preparing for my comeback and concerts." Bae Zhuhyun looked very happy, "With sufficient practice as support, whether it is the comeback stage or the performance of the concert, we will I will definitely do better than usual.”

"That's good. If you just practice, you are already used to it, so it's not difficult." Chen Chen touched her head and asked curiously: "Has the comeback song been released? Let me listen to it."

"There is only a demo now." Pei Zhuhyun took out her mobile phone from her bag, "The company has stopped our schedules for the past few days to let us recuperate. We can hear our version in a few days."

"Yeah, the headphone cords are tangled together."

Pei Zhuxuan sighed, and then slowly began to untie the knot.

"It seems that even if it is a female idol's headphone cable, it will still get knotted when it should be tied. I feel much better when I think about it." Chen Chen joked to her, "I can just listen casually, no need for headphones." of."

"If you don't need it, you can't use it, so I still need to take it apart." Pei Zhuxuan was not affected, patiently and gently untying the threads, "It's better to take it apart now than not being able to take it apart one day when I'm in a hurry to use it. .”

"Just listen first and stop talking so much."

Bae Zhuhyun freed up one hand to operate her phone, and the demo of Red Velvet's new song immediately flowed into the room.

"..."

After listening to only half of the beginning, Chen Chen covered his eyes and chanted sutras!

Although I don't know how this song appeared now, Chen Chen has a very good impression of "Zimzalabim", and the song itself is also very good.

But not bad, not bad. When Chen Chenmeng heard it, he still felt it was a bit abrupt and hard to accept. Mainly it’s only 17 years now. If it were 2003 or 2033, Chen Chen might think it’s normal for a girl group to release this kind of song, because everyone seems to have started reading it, but it’s not 2033 after all.

"The company has been too comfortable recently and you want to resist the pressure?" Chen Chente said speechlessly: "This song is quite a test of the fans' ability to accept it."

"Isn't there a concert to please the fans right after my return? That's why the company is confident." Pei Zhuxuan looked at Chen Chen with a smile, "But the company said that the artistic content of the songs is very high. What do you think?"

"It's very high. People who know the art can definitely feel that this is a work that should be praised." Chen Chen sneered, "But are the fans here to explore the content of your art? They are here to chase stars! It is difficult to be appreciated by art. A comeback song that is accepted by less capable fans and the general public can actually be regarded as a failure."

"But the idiot entrepreneur has a great career and Red Velvet has a long life. It's okay to occasionally play new things that are not acceptable to everyone." Chen Chen added: "As unlucky people who don't have a say, you just need to be good Just enjoy meeting the fans."

"We think so too." Pei Zhuhyun put the packed headphones into her backpack. "Since you can't influence the company's decision, just do your job well."

"Well done. Only by maintaining this state can we get better development. Of course, the premise is that the company must be reliable. If the company is not reliable, it will be screwed." Chen Chen sniffed and talked elsewhere, "By the way, I'll take it. I wrote a script and today I went to the studio for the first time in a long time.”

"Really?" Pei Zhuxuan's eyes widened, "Great, you are finally willing to go out for a walk!"

"What did you do on the set today?" Pei Zhuxuan asked with concern: "Do you want to know in advance? Or did you communicate with the director?"

"None of them. Today I went to the set of "Secret Forest". I had promised to be a guest star before, so I did it." Chen Chen replied: "The script I accepted was from Shin Yuanhao, who had previously collaborated on "Reply 1988" The role offers submitted by the director are different on both sides.”

"No matter what, it's fine." Pei Zhuxuan didn't care so much, "It's a good thing to be able to move."

"Hahaha, speaking of activities in the entertainment industry. You know, when I first received the invitation, I really didn't want to go. I felt that it was a bit embarrassing for me to join the entertainment industry myself in my current capacity." Chen Chen said with a smile: "Because I am It was a particularly good script and I had a good relationship with the director, so I was offered an important role. But after walking around the set today, I was just happy that I agreed to it."

"How do you say that?" Pei Zhuxuan was very curious, "What happened to you on the set that made you change so much?"

"I haven't met anything. I figured it out myself." Chen Chen held Pei Zhuhyun in his arms, and the beauty also cooperated meekly, "To put it simply, I walked around outside my comfort zone and recognized myself clearly. reality.”

"Among South Korean entertainment companies such as C Headquarters and Soy Sauce Bottle, I am a great producer and a manager who is good at making money."

"In China, I am a lucky boy with a big tree on my back and someone to help me with everything I do."

"When I went around the set and spent a while in the film and television industry, I realized that I was actually nothing."

"It's true that I am the boss of an entertainment company, but the entertainment company has accomplished nothing."

"I don't have outstanding artists, and the projects on YouTube are not so successful that they break the circle. Except for me, a guy who has been lucky enough to get a few good scripts, there is no one in the C department who can catch the eyes of others."

"I know that what I am doing is very powerful and will be very promising in the future, but after all, it is all unfinished business, and others will not see it or take it to heart."

"So after I took a serious look at myself, I immediately understood why I was unhappy when I received the invitation." Chen Chen said with a wry smile: "I thought I was full of knowledge, but in reality I failed the test many times, so I gave myself a hope that I would not be recognized. The stupidity of a sour scholar."

"It's so embarrassing." Chen Chen covered his eyes, "I actually feel like I'm very powerful, even though I haven't accomplished anything extraordinary."
