The day suddenly became a very ordinary one, making Chen Chen feel uncomfortable all over.

He left Seoul and flew directly to Beijing, where he danced a tango of advance and retreat with the Internet giants in China, and even found time to make a plan to capsize the ship.

Although the task is not completed, the missing parts are just insignificant details and you don't need to worry about them at all.

After coming back, I happened to encounter the turmoil in Cube Entertainment. I took the opportunity to insert myself into it and spread the previously made designs into reality in order to seek an opportunity to make a fortune overnight.

The opportunity has come, seize it, and just wait for the wheel of time to crush the helpless mortals into the field.

Then he hooked up with Seohyun as well, and C headquarters had the opportunity to welcome a true artist, an artist who once reached the pinnacle of idols.

The experience during this period can't be described as magnificent, but Chen Chen feels it is completely reasonable to say that he is in high spirits.

So Chen Chen felt particularly uncomfortable with this period of idleness, feeling like he had a lot of energy but nowhere to vent it!

Ji-soo was busy with her tour and didn't come to shoot the scenes she was supposed to shoot; "Civilization Express" was finally online, and Chen Chen felt nothing but relief. Now YouTube programs can no longer touch his heart.

Thinking about it carefully, the most meaningful thing Chen Chen has done recently is to name the food delivery app "C Circle" yesterday, which means the circle around the C headquarters.

Today, there was nothing today. I spent the whole day browsing my phone but didn’t see any news that interested me.

……

"It's so boring, Jinyoung, let's find something to watch."

“It’s a bit unreasonable for us to wait here for GOT7’s data, even for two people to wait together.”

"You are the boss of the soy sauce bottle, and I am the boss of C headquarters. Isn't this standard a bit too high?"

"..."

Finally, Park Jin-young asked Chen Chen to meet him, but he didn't expect it to be for this kind of thing. Chen Chen was so nervous.

"GOT7 is going to give you C share of the money from selling albums, don't you care about it?" Park Jin Young looked at Chen Chen, "I think you should sit here, what do you think?"

"I don't think so." Chen Chen didn't buy his nonsense at all. "I'm sitting here as long as the peripherals are sold. How much money can the album make?! You, me, the producer, the distributor, the retailer, the artist, the commodity tax, there are so many places to share the money. How much money can the album make!"

"Small profits but quick turnover." Park Jin-young pulled Chen Chen to look at his phone, which turned out to be the Black Cat page. "Are the pre-order numbers here real? Will everyone who pre-orders buy it?"

"A pre-order is a pre-order. A pre-order without a deposit is no different from a collection." Chen Chen couldn't help but laugh. "If every pre-order can be converted into sales, GOT7 will have to start with ."

"What is the general conversion rate?" Park Jin-young asked.

"I'm not sure. The conversion rates of different products vary greatly." Chen Chen shook his head. "This is our first time doing this, and we have to collect this kind of data from scratch."

“But after doing it a few more times, the data will be able to reflect the purchasing power of the artist’s fans, which is very helpful,” Chen Chen added.

"Yes, it is very helpful." Park Jin-young sighed inexplicably, "I don't know how much of the 400,000 expectations can be achieved."

"Looking at the pre-sale data of Black Cat, I think 400,000 is definitely too little." Chen Chen estimated and calculated, "Adding the offline sales in South Korea, 450,000 is about right."

"Oh, you only gave 50,000 sales in South Korea?!" Park Jin-young suddenly became excited, "This is too contemptuous!"

"You don't know what the situation of GOT7 is in South Korea, right?" Chen Chen fiercely exposed his scars, "When they debuted, Loen sold off a large number of Soy Sauce Bottle stocks, which directly made them disappear. South Korea didn't accept them at all. It's a pity that they put in a lot of efforts later, otherwise it would be even worse!" "..."

Park Jin-young was speechless. This was one of the indelible pains in his heart. Back then, Loen was too aggressive and Soy Sauce Bottle suffered greatly from it.

"IU's album sold a lot in the past two days." Park Jin-young changed the subject, "How could it sell 400,000 in one go? It's too scary for one person to sell 400,000!"

"Don't you think about how many albums he has released in the past ten years?" Chen Chen suddenly turned his head and stared at Park Jin-young, staring at him until he was annoyed, then he said, "Would you like to sell your old albums again in your next memorable year?"

"Forget it." Park Jin-young shook his head so much that he almost flew off. "My fans are getting old. It's impossible for them to contribute to my sales. They have families to support."

"Just be self-aware."

Chen Chen smiled and said nothing more.

"Speaking of which," Park Jin-young spoke up, "there's a lot of buzz about Hyun-A getting fired. Do you have any thoughts?"

"No." Chen Chen had no expression on his face.

"Really?" Park Jin-young didn't believe it and asked, "That's Hyun-ah. Hyun-ah has been the number one girl in the Cube for many years. She is exactly the signature figure that your C headquarters is missing!"

"Love-minded artists don't work with me." Chen Chen snorted and asked, "You don't want the soy sauce bottle at all?"

"No." Park Jin-young said generously, "Are you going to come and compete with Suzy for the top spot? I feel like it would be more troublesome if you really get it."

"..."

You can fool the devil by saying this. No matter how hard HyunA tries, she will never become the most popular actress as long as Suzy is around.

Speaking of Suzy.
"Suzy's contract is about to expire, I'm interested in pursuing her, I wonder if Soy Sauce Bottle can give her up?"

Chen Chen deliberately teased Park Jin-young, but at the same time it was also a way to give him a shot of prevention.

"Ugh"

With a long sigh, Park Jin Young did not react as violently as Chen Chen had imagined.

"It's good to go to your place. C headquarters is trustworthy, young and energetic, and has enviable rich resources." Park Jin-young said sincerely, "Judging from her current performance, it will be difficult for Soy Sauce Bottle to keep her. The company's film and television resources are gradually unable to keep up with her development. She has gone from a supporter to a drag, and the contract negotiation is extremely difficult."

"But Soy Sauce Bottle will definitely try his best to retain him, and if he fails, he will say a few good words on behalf of C headquarters." Park Jin Young hurriedly added.

"No, you don't have to say good things for me." Chen Chen quickly refused. "If I can get Suzy, then C headquarters will simply sign a separate artist. Don't make it seem like she transferred from a soy sauce bottle to C headquarters. It will make both of our families uncomfortable in the future."

"That makes sense." Park Jin-young nodded and asked bluntly, "Besides Suzy, are there any other artists you like?"

"Of course there will be. There are many artists whose contracts expire every month, and C headquarters has the opportunity to get a lot of them." Chen Chen himself didn't know for sure, "But no one can be sure of this kind of thing. Maybe by then I won't need any artists anymore."

Yes, what if one day we suddenly take over Starship or KEYEAST? We still have to dream.
