"Let's have a meeting and everyone should report on their work progress."

Luo Yingxi, Zheng Zhongyuan, Kang Niang, Zheng Zhemin, and Jaejae were all called to the conference room by Chen Chen.

Although Jaejae strongly refused to attend the meeting with these big guys and felt that she was not worthy of being at the same table with them, Chen Chen still forcibly pulled her over.

However, seeing how uneasy she was now, Chen Chen felt somewhat regretful, and thought that he should not let the poor YouTube program PD down so much that she would not be able to work properly in the future.

"Jaejae, come first."

"You are in charge of two programs and you have to be both the PD and the MC at the same time. It is a level of hardship that no one else has. You should finish your speech and go back to rest."

Chen Chen called out his name and helped Jaejae solve the problem.

"Well, let me give you a brief report." Jaejae cleared his throat and started talking while holding the manuscript in front of him. "Although I have two programs in hand, neither of them is currently active."

"'Today's Dishes' is temporarily suspended because Ji Soo is on tour. 'Civilization Express' is a program that is updated irregularly, and there are no suitable topics or guests recently, so I should be the one with the least time among you all."

"Rather than being a PD for a specific program, I am more like the person in charge of all YouTube-related programs at C headquarters. I often receive requests for help from other YouTube channels and respond to them."

"Currently, everything is fine on YouTube, and there is nothing that needs to be singled out."

Jaejae gave a brief explanation and the answer made Chen Chen very satisfied.

Chen Chen has always been aware that she would help deal with some of the miscellaneous and minor troublesome tasks on the YouTube channel, and he was also willing to let her do these things.

In the future, when she does well and establishes her reputation, it would not be a bad idea to let her be in charge of the YouTube area.

"Keep up the good work." Chen Chen nodded, and then gave a reward, "After today, your personal budget will increase by 30%."

"Thank you, boss!" Jaejae's eyes lit up, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise. "Then I'll leave first. I hope you all enjoyed the conversation."

Everyone watched Jaejae leave, and then the room suddenly went haywire.

"A direct 30% increase? Can I get a 30% increase too?!"

Luo Yingxi couldn't wait to ask questions, while Zheng Zhemin was watching eagerly on the side.

Kang Niang was more steady, his eyes just moved slightly before he retracted them.

As for Zheng Zhongyuan, he knew from the beginning that the budget increase had nothing to do with him. He was the one who spent the most and didn't dare to ask for this.

"PD Luo can raise your salary, but the rest of you can forget about it." Chen Chen agreed to one offer and rejected three. "PD Zheng Zhongyuan is really too generous, and PD Kang Niang and PD Zheng Zhemin haven't made any achievements yet. So it's hard for me to give this money out."

"Okay, let's report the situation. Who's going first?"

Chen Chen ended the dangerous topic and returned to the official work.

"Let me do it. Mine is the easiest." Zheng Zhongyuan said directly, "The script of "The Great Escape 2" has been completed. Now we need funds to renovate the venue. Once it is completed, we can start filming."

"Got it." Chen Chen's reply was equally direct. "Submit a report and it will be approved in seconds."

"It's my turn next." Luo Yingxi saw that the two had finished their communication and took the initiative to take the next position. "Not to mention that "New Journey to the West Season 6" is about to start airing, I am also very satisfied with the new job that Boss Chen arranged for me to shoot a group variety show for TWICE."

"I'm currently learning about TWICE's various materials, and I'll report back when the script is finished." "Also, if nothing unexpected happens, filming should start in mid-December." Luo Yingxi requested, "I know this is not a good time for idols, I hope Boss Chen can help me negotiate."

"Will it take more than a month to write the script?" Chen Chen frowned. "It's not an exaggeration to say that December is the most important month for idols, because filming will be delayed for an extra week. Even for me, it would be difficult to negotiate such a condition."

"Because they are brand new guests, we need to spend a long time to get to know them." Luo Yingxi explained: "It is impossible to make a good program without considering the situation of the guests and just blindly putting the script on the guests, so the script preparation time is longer."

"That is to say." Luo Yexi's face was already full of bitter smile, "early December is already the fastest shooting time."

"Not really. We're looking forward to broadcasting it in early December." Chen Chen shook his head, "And I'm sure Soy Sauce Bottle won't accept this time. I need you to think of a way to move it forward."

Through this program, Soy Sauce Bottle hopes to overtake SM Entertainment before the end of the year. If the program is only broadcasted near the end of the year, it will definitely be too late. Early December is already the acceptable limit.

Although Chen Chen believes that even if this program can help a little, it will not be able to surpass Shamao, but things promised to others and things that should be done must be completed.

Why can’t he surpass Shamao? Because Shamao at the end of 2018 was God, the undisputed peak of Shamao.

"How about we change our thinking and set up an appetizer first?" Chen Chen thought for a while and suggested, "Aren't you production team very good at conversation? Set up a conversation time before filming. This should allow us to understand what kind of people the guests are faster and more accurately than reading the information."

"Hmm," Luo Yexi adjusted his glasses and slowly frowned, "If we have to start broadcasting in early December, this is the only way. Let me think about it."

Luo Yingxi thought quickly and came up with a rough plan in two minutes.

"They were given a segment where they rated each other, and the production team used this opportunity to put in some questions they wanted to know, and finally replaced the ratings with some slightly useful initial items for the official program shooting."

"It's doable!" Luo Yingxi clapped his hands fiercely, "Boss Chen, please help me communicate with Jiangyouping and let TWICE spare a few hours in the evening for us!"

"That's no problem." Chen Chen agreed without hesitation, "Just send me a message when you're ready. You can get the girls' time at any time."

"OK, I'm done here, next person, please."

Luo Yingxi had nothing more to say, so he gave up his seat.

"'Michu-ri' has been scheduled on SBS TV, and I don't have anything to say." Zheng Zhemin was the most relaxed. "If there is anything, it is that the second season can start preparations from now on."

"Then start preparing now." Chen Chen nodded and said, "Just let me know if you need support from C headquarters."

"..."

"Why are you all suddenly silent?" Chen Chen was very surprised. "Is there something wrong with what I said?"

"No, no, no, absolutely not!" Luo Yingxi made an exaggerated expression, "I'm just surprised that C headquarters, which never releases a second season, actually has a program that is going to be released in the second season. It's too scary!"

"Yes." Zheng Zhemin cooperated with him tacitly. "The super successful "Queendom" and "Street Girls" have not received any news about the second season yet. My show, which hasn't even started airing yet, has confirmed that it will have a second season. I am really flattered."

"Well, let's talk about this topic later. PD Kang, please continue with your content first."

With a light cough, Chen Chen calmed down the heated atmosphere with a stern face.
