Chapter 892

Although Suzy has already filmed a TV series in C headquarters, no one outside the circle knows about it except her peers. It was just the right time for Chen Chen to use her.

It is no exaggeration to say that as long as C headquarters does not cause any big trouble that angers the people, Suzy's news will be a sure win.

At the moment, all the negative news that has accumulated before will be crushed by such a big event as Suzy's acquisition, and finally disappear without a trace. This is both Suzy's reputation and the weight that C headquarters has accumulated in people's hearts.

Theoretically, the fact that C headquarters acquired Suzy has nothing to do with the various negative news about C headquarters, but netizens' attention span is limited, and they can often only focus on the biggest and most interesting news, so they can use Suzy's news to suppress all the bad public opinion.

It was because of this that Chen Chen had the confidence to let Shirley deliberately spread some bad news about C headquarters.

In addition, netizens not only like to read the news and chat about gossip, but also like the feeling of first suppressing and then praising. Chen Chen understands them very well so he chooses to cater to their preferences.

It's just that the topic that Shirley chose is quite interesting.
"Chen Chen has run out of ideas."

"Without a decent competitor, BTOB and CLC can't dominate. It's indeed Chen Chen who has regressed."

"Yeah, BTOB is definitely a first-tier boy band, and CLC is a pretty good second-tier band, but they still haven't helped Chen Chen rise to prominence."

"I say, buddy above, are you just throwing out the facts for the sake of black people? The two groups have been directly promoted, right?"

"Just tell me whether Chen Chen's work has declined in performance. Shouldn't his work be displayed in this position now?"

"Is it possible that there is a problem with the operator? After all, it is Cube Entertainment."

"Yeah, it's Cube Entertainment after all."

"..."

It started with an attack on Chen Chen, and then Cube Entertainment was inexplicably hit and became the target of everyone's criticism.

To be honest, it's quite magical, but everyone thinks it's reasonable and no one can find fault with it.

Because Cube Entertainment is bound to be criticized no matter where it appears. The series of previous events have seriously overdrawn everyone's trust.

……

"I think Shirley is taking this opportunity to vent her dissatisfaction with me. What do you think?"

Chen Chen held Bae Joo Hyun in his arms and sought comfort from his girlfriend.

Although the final result was good, Chen Chen did not expect that Shirley would directly target her boss in order to create some negative news for her.

"Don't just look at what she said about your work not achieving the expected results. You also have to look at what specific results it achieved!" Bae Joo Hyun covered her mouth and laughed. "Didn't those media outlets that criticized you get scolded by netizens? Aren't you all excited now?"

"The problem is," Chen Chen pointed out the key point, "the more they are scolded, the more money we have to pay them. They have 'compensation for being scolded'!"

"Is that the case?" Pei Zhuxuan suddenly became serious when she mentioned the money, "How did you do it?!"

"C has a lot of good relationships with the headquarters. We can find two media outlets that are short of traffic and give them the job." Chen Chen replied: "We also know that we are deliberately provoking conflicts among netizens, and they will definitely be hurt in the fight. At this time, we have to give them some compensation. After all, they are working for us."

“Why not use your own media?”

Pei Zhuxuan's question stumped Chen Chen, making it impossible for him to reply for a long time.

"Uh, baby." Chen Chen carefully considered his words, trying his best not to hurt her. "Our own media started to scold me, their boss. Isn't this a great betrayal? They must be mentally unstable."

"You don't have any small accounts?!" Pei Zhuxuan saw that Chen Chen had misunderstood, and hurriedly explained, "I'm talking about the small accounts in C headquarters!"

"Of course there are small accounts. There is no entertainment company that does not have its own media and small accounts." Chen Chen shook his head, "But it is not worth using small accounts for this kind of thing. There are bigger stages waiting for them." "In addition." Chen Chen laughed when he said this, "C headquarters has made money. It is better to send more tasks out to let everyone make some money. If you eat alone, you will be ostracized by the whole world."

"Then here comes the question." Pei Zhuxuan asked seriously, "How much money does C headquarters make?"

"It makes more money than the previous loen company."

Chen Chen gave the truth.

Before Loen changed its name to KakaoM and divested its record business, it almost monopolized the South Korean entertainment industry, and its ability to make money is self-evident.

But now at Headquarter C, Chen Chen can boldly say that he is already making more money than it.

Although his collection of South Korean record business was still far behind that of the previous Loen Company, and although the cooperation with Black Cat resulted in C headquarters only receiving relatively meager gains, the richness of the Chinese market still far exceeded Chen Chen's imagination.

Records may be the least profitable item in the collaboration between C headquarters and Black Cat, various peripheral products are the main force!
An album requires the production of various things, and the complicated process also incurs high costs, but it’s different for peripheral products. Once they’re on the assembly line, it’s the difference between making a ton of money and making so much money that your eyes turn red.

All the work is done by Black Cat. The design of albums and peripherals is completed by various entertainment companies. C Headquarters, the only "black intermediary" in South Korea, takes a big cut.

"Okay, I know that C headquarters is very profitable." Pei Zhuxuan rolled her eyes at him, "But you still have to save money. With such a big family and business, you must leave enough room for flexibility."

"Thank you dear for pointing out the problem. I will definitely work harder!" Chen Chen glanced at his phone and flicked it on her butt. "Let's go out for dinner. It's almost time."

……

When it comes to eating, Bae Joo-hyun will most likely choose some small roadside shops, and will only be willing to go to a high-end restaurant if Chen Chen has made a reservation.

There is no other reason. It’s not that Bae Joo-hyun doesn’t like it, she just thinks it’s troublesome.

Bae Joo-hyun believes that eating delicious food, enjoying food and eating comfortably is the best, because eating is just eating!

The moment she stepped into the high-end restaurant, she felt that countless so-called rules, etiquette and other restrictions were imposed on her, which made her very uncomfortable.

However, the reason I came to the high-end restaurant today was not to eat, but as an actor I wanted to have a brief meeting with the director, screenwriter and even the leading actress.

It has been a while, and Chen Chen has already decided that Bae Joo-hyun will take a role in "Zombie School", and he will come to meet the crew today.

Although it was a job assigned by SMART, it was still Chen Chen who was doing the accompanying work, and no one could find fault with it.

"Ah, Irene-senpai!"

"I've always liked you very much, and it's great to see you here today."

"You know, when I found out you might be playing a role in the show, I was so excited that I couldn't sleep all night!"

“Blah blah blah~”

Zhao Yixian was very excited when she saw Pei Zhuxuan. I wonder if it was because Chen Chen was right next to her.

Zhao Yixian knew very well that Chen Chen was the boss. She might not have been clear at first that Bae Joo Hyun was the boss's wife, but she had been in the company for a month, and she should be able to see it even if no one was in sync with her.

As an artist, sensitivity is very important to survive in the industry.

Now, try to please the boss lady.
