"No buddy, what are you doing?"

I had a comfortable sleep, and when I woke up, I suddenly saw a piece of news forwarded by Shirley, which completely destroyed my good mood of the morning.

What happened is, there are some gossipmongers out there who filmed Chen Chen and Zhixiu entering the C headquarters building together yesterday.

The two of them were wearing casual clothes and were talking and laughing all the time, it was hard not to mistake them for a couple.

So some guys who were eager to get traffic came up with some explosive titles and posted the photos, and the accompanying texts were also ambiguous.

……

After putting on his clothes and coming to C headquarters, Chen Chen was greeted with Shirley's teasing as soon as he entered the door.

"You're the only one who has a serious scandal after becoming the president of such a big company." Shirley poured him a glass of water. "How should we deal with it? Should we contact Waiji?"

"Just take care of it. This little thing won't be difficult for you." Chen Chen waved his hand nonchalantly, sat down at his workstation and turned on his computer. "I came to the company to prepare for another project."

"You really want me to handle it? Then my solution is not to handle it. The current situation is that it's a big deal but no one believes it. Everyone is making fun of it." Shirley also returned to her seat, her attitude was even more casual than Chen Chen's. "Besides, the matter was over as soon as the challenge video was sent out this afternoon. I'm too lazy to waste any more time."

"If you do it well, that's what you have to do."

Chen Chen didn't even raise his head as he threw out a compliment.

"Why don't you tell Waiji?" Shirley suddenly slid the chair over and poked Chen Chen with her arm. "I'm afraid Zhixiu has no experience and might say something that will cause Waiji to misunderstand."

"Just go and contact them." Chen Chen still handed the matter over to Shirley, "Give the challenge video we shot yesterday to Waiji for review, and they will know what we mean."

"What a heartless man." Shirley sighed and slid back on her chair. "This is a great opportunity to show your love for me. How can you miss it? You've been getting worse and worse!"

"..."

Chen Chen was too lazy to pay attention to her and continued to work on his "new folder".

About half an hour later, after Shirley contacted Waiji, his response appeared on the Internet.

“Don’t believe in nonsense.”

The words are definitely not exactly these, but the meaning is definitely this.

"It's rare for Waiji to finally look like a human being." Chen Chen couldn't help but tease, "I just wonder if Waiji would have issued another bullshit announcement like 'We need to confirm with the artist' if we hadn't contacted him."

"They are definitely not as stupid as you think. After all, they are a big company." Shirley saw Chen Chen took the initiative to talk about this matter and asked another question, "Do you want to deal with those news agencies that caused the trouble?"

"We are not bullies." Chen Chen shook his head slightly. "Let others use their traffic to play, as long as they don't play all the time."

"So lenient?" Shirley pointed at Chen Chen with her slender white finger. "I reasonably suspect that you think KakaoM is messing with you, so you don't want to pursue it!"

"It's probably due to connections." Chen Chen nodded and said, "South Korean news agencies, big and small, all told me when I started working on Tik Tok. If no one had given them some benefits, no one would have done this."

"That's fine. This is an opportunity that you have finally seized. You really have to let them vent their anger." Shirley covered her mouth and chuckled. "You have been deliberately avoiding contact with people in public since the incident was completed. I think they have been holding it in for a long time."

"No." Shirley's face suddenly darkened when she said this. "Based on my understanding of you, you didn't deliberately give others this opportunity, did you?"

"No." Chen Chen's answer was a little cold. "If I were given this kind of opportunity, I would definitely not let a crooked artist stand next to me. If life drags me into something bad, I would be very uncomfortable."

"..."

Shirley was a little speechless, but that was Chen Chen's style. "Have you arranged your new project?"

Shirley changed the subject and walked up to Chen Chen in her high heels.

"I wrote down my rough idea and planned to find someone with planning ability in the e-sports circle to help me make it into a feasible plan." Chen Chen looked up and saw Shirley's beautiful face over the mountain. "Do you know such a person?"

"I don't know him. Why do you think I would know someone like that?!" Shirley rolled her eyes at him and said unhappily.

"Well, I'll find one myself. It's not a difficult task." Chen Chen touched his chin and said, "Private dissemination and public recruitment can solve this problem."

"Why did you suddenly think of the e-sports project?"

Shirley had almost finished looking at the project behind Chen Chen's back and was a little curious for a moment.

"I went to play games yesterday and thought this thing might be good, so I thought of giving it a try." Chen Chen said calmly, "It doesn't cost much anyway, so I'll just treat it as a pastime for myself."

"We can put the venue in the Internet cafe."

"Not only do we not have to pay for the venue and equipment, the Internet cafe will have to pay us money for advertising, and they will also have to prepare small gifts for the guests who come to participate!"

"For hosting and commentating, just ask someone else to guest star. It doesn't cost much."

"We don't need to spend money to collaborate with PUBG. They can just create a project and sell it themselves. Maybe they will even give us some of the proceeds to thank us as the organizer."

"We must prepare food and drinks for this event, and the food advertisers must come and give us some money!"

"Also, the live streaming platform will definitely want to broadcast our show, so let's make a lot of money from it!"

"Where we have to spend money is to be a good organizer to prepare other prizes and various human and material resources, including directors, cameramen, etc."

"Unfortunately, we are an entertainment company. We have plenty of these people and things."

"If we can collect registration fees from artists again." Chen Chen gave himself a thumbs up, "Let alone making back our investment, we will definitely make a ton of money!"

"Shut up now." Shirley punched his thumb and said, "You take money from the contestants, are you still a human being?!"

"That's just what I said. I want to prove that this is a project that doesn't require any investment but can make money." Chen Chen spread his hands. "Otherwise, wouldn't I be a bad boss who acts recklessly because of my own momentary willfulness?"

"Even if you hold ten money-losing events, no one will think you are a bad boss. Your personality is so stable!" Shirley made a serious suggestion with a serious face, "Since we don't need to spend any money, we must do this project well so that we can use it to promote the good image of C headquarters."

"You mean to raise the standards and make everything meet the standards of the top league." Chen Chen licked his lips. "Most importantly, don't accept messy advertisements that affect the viewing experience?"

"Yeah, if our boss wants to play, then let's play a little. Spending some money is nothing." Shirley acted like a good girl at first, but then she bared her fangs in the last sentence. "If the fans' support is high enough, we can do a second and third season in the future. It can be considered a long-term project."

"The follow-up operation of long-term projects." Shirley winked at Chen Chen, "You know."

"Well, it looks like we're heading for the Idol Sports Festival." Chen Chen counted on his fingers, "It can only be held twice a year. If there are more, we'll have to share the money with the companies of the contestants."

"No, I won't do it!" Chen Chen suddenly reacted, "If we really start commercial operations, we will be scolded. It's such a loss!"

"That's right. After all, it was just your personal hobby. It would be boring if you made it bigger." Shirley bowed her head and apologized, "I thought too much. I'm sorry."

"It's okay. This shows that you are sensitive in business. I'm happy." Chen Chen raised his arm and pinched Shirley's little face. "However, let's leave some relatively pure things in this circle!"
