Don’t feel sorry for Boss Hong because he only had one choice, C Headquarters. You should know that he had no choice “before”. In the end, he could only sell his shares helplessly and let the Cube that he built with great effort belong to others.

Of course, Chen Chen cannot guarantee that the result of Boss Hong choosing Headquarters C will definitely be better than "before", but Chen Chen himself has a good impression of him and will take care of him if there is a chance in the future.

"He chose you, can you lead him to victory?!" Li Zhien suddenly became excited, "Will you be a hero who leads President Hong to a comeback?!"

"..."

Chen Chen’s silence made Li Zhien understand something, and also made her feel that she was a little naive.

"You have your plans, right?" Lee Ji-eun asked.

"Others want Cube Entertainment, so of course I want it too." Chen Chen reached out and rubbed her head. "It's true that I'm helping Boss Hong regain control of Cube, but it's uncertain whether it will be his Cube or C Headquarters' Cube in the end."

It is cruel to destroy the heroic image in the eyes of others, but Chen Chen thinks it would be better for Lee Ji-eun to accept it sooner.

"Wow~" Li Zhien didn't feel uncomfortable at all, and still looked excited, "What are you going to do? Do you have a plan? Tell me!"

Uh. It turns out that I was just interested in the story that Chen Chen was in.

"It's not difficult actually." Chen Chen said slowly, "Use the shares you got from Boss Hong to enter the market and get rid of the troublemakers first."

"They don't have any shares, and the combined status of Boss Hong and I is too great, so it's easy to suppress them."

"Then I gave some resources to the artists to make some money and appease the other shareholders. This turned into a bilateral confrontation between iHQ and us."

"iHQ is not the iHQ of more than a decade ago. Even if it still has a little advantage, I would never dare to do anything about it again."

"Then we just have to wait for iHQ to collapse naturally. It has a lot of problems and its collapse cannot be stopped. But Cube is no longer at risk of collapse and will gradually become the upper hand."

"So, iHQ, which cannot stop its collapse by relying on Cube Entertainment's dividends, will have to consider selling its shares one day."

"That's when President Hong will completely win the battle, and it's also the best time for me to make a move." Chen Chen had a blank expression on his face. "As long as I can take over the shares sold by iHQ, plus I already have the shares I got from Boss Hong, I should be the winner in the end."

"The shares you got from Boss Hong?" Li Zhien discovered a blind spot. "Didn't you say you would return it to him?"

"Do you really believe me when I say I will pay you back? I definitely won't!" Chen Chen explained to her with a smile, "Boss Hong has a lot of shares. I have to use these shares to create a big difference before I can take action. I can't pay him back at all!"

"Then you won't take back your shares in headquarters C? Don't you feel you've lost out?" Li Zhien's brows twisted into knots, "These are all your original words."

"If I use C headquarters shares to exchange for Cube Entertainment shares, I will definitely lose money, but if I don't use them, won't I lose money?" Chen Chen tapped her forehead, "I still have some shares of Soy Sauce Bottle in my hand, I can use that to exchange."

"At worst, I can just give up these few shares of Soy Sauce Bottle, and I can also give up the benefits after exchanging them for shares." Chen Chen spread his hands, "I would feel very comfortable if I could control Cube Entertainment."

"A chain of schemes!" Li Zhien's eyes were full of admiration. "Have you been planning this from the beginning, since you saw the news today?!"

"more or less."

Chen Chen touched his nose and said nothing more.

He didn't start from the beginning. Chen Chen started planning from the beginning. He started planning since the beginning of last month when Hyuna's relationship was exposed!
"Okay, let's eat!" Chen Chen touched his stomach, "This phone call was quite exhausting. I'm even hungry."

"Order takeout?" Li Zhien suggested, "I see you don't feel like cooking anymore, let's choose something less labor-intensive." "Are these the only two options? Can't we go out to eat?" Chen Chen was a little dissatisfied, "Sometimes I want to eat something good, too."

"But the day after tomorrow is my tenth anniversary, and I don't want to move at all. I want to save as much energy as possible." Li Zhien said coquettishly: "Just trouble you to accompany me to eat a takeaway meal, please."

"Well, in that case, I'll go buy some groceries and cook them." Chen Chen poked her nose, "Just as compensation for not being able to attend your tenth anniversary."

"I didn't expect you to go." Li Zhien was easily satisfied, "Now it's even better if I can trick you into a meal."

……

After eating and drinking, Chen Chen left Li Zhien in the evening to meet with the director of the artist management department of C headquarters.

The agreed one week has come, and tonight is the time to have a detailed chat with Xu Xian.

"You brought someone with you, too." Seeing that there was a man who looked like a manager next to Xu Xian, Chen Chen simply suggested, "Why don't we let them chat first and go to another table to talk?"

Xu Xian readily agreed, she also wanted to know more about what kind of person Chen Chen was.

"Who is that?"

Chen Chen sat down and while Xu Xian was pouring the water, he pointed at the person she brought with her.

"My personal agent has been helping me take care of various affairs since I left SM Entertainment. He is very capable." Xu Xian put the teacup in front of Chen Chen and replied.

"You are indeed very capable." Chen Chen nodded approvingly, "I can help you get a place to visit the North. This is not something that ordinary people can do."

"That has little to do with him." Xu Xian waved her hands repeatedly, "Visiting North Korea was something we agreed to a long time ago. After all, it was an opportunity that the Blue House finally found, and it took a long time to prepare."

"So that's how it is, but it doesn't matter." Chen Chen smiled and deliberately said, "C Headquarters will never have anything to do with that kind of thing, I don't like it."

"It's good not to be involved. Dealing with the Blue House is not a good thing." Xu Xian directly stated her attitude, "C headquarters has its own basic policies. Only by adhering to principles can it grow and develop. A company that changes its bottom line too easily looks unreliable."

"So easy to talk to?" Chen Chen was a little curious. "Xu Xian, are you such an easy person to talk to? If so, why didn't SMART keep you?"

"Because we are chatting with C headquarters, it seems easy to talk to." Xu Xian replied: "Since I have decided to go on the road of film and television, SM Entertainment is no longer suitable for me. C headquarters, which has been rapidly rising in the film and television field recently, is the most suitable place for me to develop."

"Because the current status of C headquarters is not high enough, it is very suitable for you to grow together?" Chen Chen blurted out a few words, "and C headquarters seems very strong, at least it has great potential?"

Xu Xian nodded slightly.

"Mu Qiang?" Chen Chen narrowed his eyes.

Xu Xian is generous.

"Is there anything wrong?"
