"I haven't been here for a while. Cube Entertainment seems to have become more vibrant."

Chen Chen was invited to Cube Entertainment, and as soon as he sat down, he clicked the "like" button and gave a good review.

"Yes, it's hard to be without vitality. This is the current situation of Cube Entertainment." Hong Shengcheng couldn't help but feel proud. "The company has gradually become a whole. It has also benefited greatly from the Starship incident. Every aspect is moving in a good direction!"

"Then why did you ask me to come here?" Chen Chen choked him with a word, "If nothing happened, would you think of me?"

"Well." Hong Shengcheng suddenly became visibly nervous, and inadvertently used honorifics, "Haha, whether it's the company's internal affairs or the starship's affairs, it's all thanks to C headquarters. I asked you to come over to share the joy."

"If you wanted to share, you should have shared it earlier. I don't see your sincerity in choosing this time." Chen Chen smacked his lips and said like a second-rate person, "Let's talk about business. There's no need to make our relationship so ambiguous. I don't plan to fall in love with you."

"Hahaha, you're so funny." Hong Shengcheng quietly wiped his sweat and said politely, "But right now I do have a little confusion that I'd like you to help me solve."

"Please say."

Chen Chen responded in the same polite tone, silently putting pressure on him.

"It's about (G)I-DLE." Hong Seung-sung asked carefully, "Have you been paying attention to the girls' recent comebacks?"

"No, I have my own daughter to take care of at home, so I don't have much energy to spare for others." Chen Chen's tone was polite, but his words were very impolite. "You should just tell me the problem you encountered directly to save time."

"(G)I-DLE is not doing well," Hong Seung-sung said directly. "It is true that they have a high starting point comparable to that of a big company, but their subsequent development is only at the level of a small company. This worries me a lot."

"The company has been trying to do something to help, but the results have been minimal, as if the market doesn't buy it at all." Hong Shengcheng frowned, "So I think there may be something wrong with the thinking."

"So you want me to help you solve this problem, or at least point you in a direction, right?" Chen Chen asked with a smile.

"Just point us in a direction." Hong Shengcheng smiled flatteringly, and rubbed his hands together unconsciously, "We are confident that we can do the rest of the work well."

"Oh, I see." Chen Chen nodded to show that he understood, and gave a cold answer with a smile, "No."

"..."

This answer obviously caught Hong Shengcheng by surprise, and he was stunned for a moment.

But Chen Chen didn't even give him a chance to be stunned. He stood up directly after speaking.

"If there's nothing else, I'll leave. I don't want to waste time here."

I never wanted Cube Entertainment to get better, I just wanted it to decay slowly, and I definitely wouldn't help people find their way.

After all, Chen Chen only has five points of shares in Cube Entertainment. If he had fifty points, he would be more anxious than Hong Shengcheng.

"It's good!" Hong Shengcheng hurriedly grabbed him, "Cube Entertainment has Starship shares, we are willing to give it up!"

"Oh, yes, there is such a thing." Chen Chen still did not hesitate at all, "I don't want it, three points are too little and embarrassing, I'm not interested."

"And you definitely won't give it away for free. You still have to make me buy it." Chen Chen was expressing his refusal from the beginning to the end, "I won't buy it."

"..."

Hong Shengcheng was completely stunned.

Originally he wanted to use this thing as his last resort, but it turned out that the other party didn't care at all.

Let’s not talk about whether I feel embarrassed or not, the main thing is that I didn’t get things done!

(G) I-DLE has been in a lukewarm state since their debut song "LATATA". They say they are developing steadily, but in fact they have returned to the development track of a second-tier girl group. Who wouldn't be anxious? !
Hong Shengcheng was very unwilling to see the beginning of a first-line group end up as a second-line group.

Because he was unwilling to give up, he wanted to ask Chen Chen to take a look. He thought that since they had created a monster like Integrate, they must have a way to do it. He would be willing to pay precious things for it. However, Chen Chen refused, and his refusal was somewhat unreasonable and ruthless.

Just saying "I don't want to help you" directly, is this still the South Korean society where favors are important? Where are the favors?

Hong Shengcheng became confused and at a loss.

……

"Oh Oppa, why are you here?!"

When leaving Cube Entertainment, I met Xu Suzhen by chance. The girl seemed very happy to see Chen Chen, and she jogged over without caring about being shy.

"Having tea with your President Hong." Chen Chen was very surprised. "Aren't you busy? You actually showed up at the company at this time."

"In the practice room." Seo Soo-jin pointed in the direction of the practice room. "We're going to be back at the end of the month. Everyone is in the company right now."

"What's the title song? Can you tell me, Oppa?"

Chen Chen narrowed his eyes and began to inquire about the news.

"It's called 'Lion', the lion." Seo Soo-jin was not at all defensive, and was even a little proud, "It's our captain's work with the lyrics and music!"

"Hi~ha~"

Chen Chen took a deep breath just by hearing the name.

There is nothing wrong with "Lion", but it is very problematic that "Lion" becomes the title song of a comeback. It should appear on the stage of "Queendom"!
Oh, the time of "Queendom" is out of sync because of Chen Chen.

That's okay. If it's Chen Chen's problem, then there's no problem.

Also, (G)I-DLE’s KDA girl group didn’t seem to make it in, because Riot’s plan was directly aborted by Chen Chen’s animated characters.

Chen Chen has done all kinds of bad things!

"Just by listening to the title, you know it's a good song. Prepare hard." Chen Chen rubbed Suzhen's head lovingly, "Listen to your captain. She will lead you to success."

"Thank you, Oppa. Xiaojuan will be very happy when she finds out." Xu Suzhen was happy from the bottom of her heart. "This may be the best encouragement she has heard recently!"

"Well, then please be sure to convey my words and make her really happy." Chen Chen thought for a moment and spoke again, "By the way, please also convey my formal encouragement to her, just say."

"Forget it, there's nothing to say." Chen Chen finally took back his words, "I think she is strong enough, and the current hardships will not defeat her."

"I will convey Oppa's expression and tone as well." Seo Soojin showed a little bit of mischief, "Oppa's expression is more effective than any words of encouragement."

"Go ahead, go ahead, you must practice well, and urge others to practice well too."

Chen Chen sent her away with a smile, and then left Cube Entertainment himself.

(G)I-DLE’s hardships will not end here. They will have to slowly overcome natural disasters, man-made disasters, company pressure, and market disapproval.

Chen Chen will just remember these things about ruining other people's programs and opportunities. As long as they are still in this circle, they will be able to pay it back one day.

Just wait for the day when C headquarters swallows up Cube Entertainment.
