Our company held a company-wide board of directors meeting on November 24th (17 people were supposed to be present, but [-] were actually present).

At the meeting, the company's president Jin Yingmin formally submitted a resignation application to the board of directors. After discussion by the board of directors, the application was approved and Kim Yingmin was removed from his position as president and acting executive director, and was transferred to the Japanese branch as the person in charge.

Regarding the changes in senior management positions within the company, the directors present at the board of directors discussed and decided as follows:
Lee Sung-soo was removed from the post of director of the entertainment department and became executive director.

Su Jinxing was relieved of his position as director of the production department and became director of the interpretation department and concurrently deputy artistic director.

The job adjustments of the above personnel shall be carried out in accordance with the "SM Company Personnel Position Change Regulations".

SM's official account has a lot of followers. This company that stole the show in the second half of this year has almost completely established itself as the number one idol entertainment company. In addition to fans, there are also a large number of people in the industry who are paying attention to this company. the leader.

As SM announced the news of personnel changes, those in the know were fine, but some who were not so well-informed were completely confused when they saw Kim Young-min resigning.

People who don’t know much about SM’s internal struggles still have an impression of SM from the time when Kim Young-min was in power. In the blink of an eye, Kim Young-min is gone?
As for resigning, anyone with a discerning eye can see the favor the company left for Kim Young-min at this time.

How could such a powerful president resign suddenly.

In addition, the name Su Jinxing is also attracting a lot of attention.

The second individual shareholder of SM has suddenly reached the position of minister of entertainment. Counting Min Xizhen, the core department of SM has been completely controlled by Su Jinxing.

There was a huge earthquake at SM Company!

This is the first thought of many people.

Information about Su Jinxing also quickly appeared on the desks of major industry peers.

But Su Jinxing, who is the center of the storm, is doing new work under such a big environment.

SM Corporation, Office of the Minister of Performing Arts.

Su Jinxing's office was not changed, but the job board at the door was changed. It had been changed yesterday afternoon. Jin Yingmin's president's office was empty and would be reopened after a new president was elected.

Today is the time when the news of job changes was sent out. Su Jinxing came to the company early in the morning.

He wants to reform the entertainment department. The current SM Entertainment Department is too bloated.

"Inform the middle-level and above cadres in all departments of the Performing Arts Department." Su Jinxing glanced at the time on his watch, "There will be a department management meeting in the conference room of the Performing Arts Department at 10:30."

"Director, it's just past nine forty, and many cadres are not in the company." Quan Taimin said hesitantly.

"Inform them that the meeting will be held at 10:30." Su Jinxing waved his hand and said.

"Guess!" Quan Taimin agreed and left quickly to deliver the notice.

dong dong dong.

There was a knock on the door, and Su Jinxing raised his head. It was Sun Shengwan.

"Wen Wen is here, come in."

Sun Shengwan opened the door, stood at the door and bowed to Su Jinxing before walking in.

"I didn't bring any gifts today." Su Jinxing joked with a smile when he saw Sun Shengwan was empty-handed.

Every time Sun Shengwan came here, he would "feed" him, but this time it was quite rare to come here empty-handed.

Sun Shengwan chuckled.

"I just arrived at the company, and I heard that you, director, have been promoted, so I came over to take a look. Congratulations, director, for being the deputy director!"

Sun Shengwan didn't know much about the power of the company's positions. In her opinion, the deputy director of the artistic director, one of the five major directors of the company, was more valuable than the acting director, so she was also the deputy director when congratulating him.

"Thank you." Su Jinxing smiled and nodded, "Come so early to record a song?"

"Well, finish recording the song first, and then devote yourself to practicing dancing." Son Shengwan nodded heavily and replied.

"Yes, this song is still very good. It should bring some heat to you this Christmas."

"Yes!" Sun Shengwan responded energetically, "Well, director, I'm going to record the song first."

"Okay." Su Jinxing laughed, this person really came here specially to congratulate.

Looking at Sun Shengwan's brisk pace, Su Jinxing felt happy.

……

Studio.

Bae Joo-hyun, wrapped in a thick down jacket, walked into the recording studio. Son Seung-wan was sitting on the sofa behind the recording engineer with the lyrics, and Ding Eun-bi was recording inside.

"Good morning, Wendy." Bae Zhuhyun called out to draw Son Seungwan's attention back.

"Oni, you're here!" Sun Shengwan saw Pei Zhuxuan, his eyes lit up, and he stood up abruptly.

"Is it just you and Eunha?" Bae Zhuhyun said, taking off her down jacket, revealing the close-fitting turtleneck sweater underneath.

"Hey, everyone else is in the practice room. Send them a message when we're almost done and come back." Son Seungwan explained.

Pei Zhuxuan nodded upon hearing this.

"Have you gone to the director... um, Director Su?" Pei Zhuxuan thought for a while and called Su Jin the Behavior Director. After all, he was promoted.

"Go, the director is in the office, but I don't know if he is still there now." Sun Shengwan said truthfully.

"Let me ask. If you're here, I'll go up there. Just watch the music and leave me alone."

"Okay." Sun Shengwan nodded and sat down with the lyrics.

Pei Zhuxuan took out her mobile phone from her pants pocket and sent a message to Su Jinxing.

Irene: Are you in the office?
Su: There are still a few minutes until the meeting.

meeting?
Irene: Then you can have the meeting. I will go there after the meeting is over.

Su: Good.

Putting down the phone, Pei Zhuxuan looked at Ding Enfei who was recording inside.

When it comes to strength, GFriend and Red Velvet are on par with each other. There is not a huge difference, but in terms of popularity, GFriend is indeed far behind.

Complex emotions flashed through as Ding Enfei came out.

"Eileen Oni." Concubine Ding greeted Pei Zhuhyun when she saw her.

The members of the two teams have known each other for a long time, and Bae Zhuhyun is the oldest sister. The girls all have a good impression of her, and GFriend is no exception.

"Recorded?" Pei Zhuxuan nodded with a smile.

"Nai, my part is finished recording."

"Has all the recording been finished?" Pei Zhuxuan asked in surprise.

It's only been two or three days, right?

"Yinhe Xi often comes to record songs, and each person's contribution to this song is not too large, and the recording is also fast." The sound engineer said from the side.

"That's it." Ding Enfei answered with a smile.

Pei Zhuxuan nodded upon hearing this.

"I'll go up first, and Yu Zhou will come down later." Ding Enfei said.

"Is Yu Joo next?" Son Seung-wan's eyes lit up. For Choi Yoona, a former teammate who worked together in "Red Velvet", their relationship is quite good. At the same time, they are both from their respective teams. Big vocals, sympathetic to each other.

"Indeed." "Then go quickly." Sun Shengwan pushed Ding Enfei and said happily.

"I'm leaving, goodbye Eileen."

"Goodbye."

……

The recording continued, Son Seung-wan took over from Ding Eun-fei, and Choi Yoona came over after a while. Son Seung-wan did not leave in a hurry after recording today's part, and chatted with Choi Yoona while Bae Zhuhyun was recording.

When Bae Zhuhyun finished recording, Son Seungwan was still chatting with Choi Yuna. After greeting the two, he went upstairs and called Jiang Seulgi down.

After waiting in the practice room for a while, I received a message from Su Jinxing that the meeting was over, and I took the elevator to the top floor.

Special certification is required to go to the penthouse, but now the threshold has been relaxed a lot. At least for artists, they can freely enter and exit the penthouse just like other floors.

Ordinary employees of the company do not have such authority.

The artist has an exclusive employee card, which can be used to swipe the elevator to the top floor.

This is also one of the prerequisites for Pei Zhuxuan and others to go upstairs to find Su Jinxing at any time.

Pei Zhuxuan and Quan Taimin said hello and then came outside Su Jinxing's office.

Raised his hand and knocked on the door.

After there was no movement for a long time, Pei Zhuxuan opened the door.

As soon as the door opened, Su Jinxing's voice was heard.

"Keep staring at him. Now is the critical time. Collect all his information for me. It will be of great use to me." Su Jinxing glanced at Pei Zhuxuan and pointed to the sofa.

Pei Zhuxuan understood and asked her to wait on the sofa for a while.

"Well, okay, report to me as soon as you have any news."

"that is it."

Su Jinxing put down the phone.

"A good thing?" Pei Zhuxuan asked.

"Whether it's good or not depends on the follow-up development." Su Jinxing said with a smile, "Why are you here this time?"

"It's okay, just come and sit." Pei Zhuxuan said with a smile.

Su Jinxing nodded.

"I read the company's announcement, and the response online was quite big," said Pei Zhuxuan.

"As expected." Su Jinxing leaned back in his chair and said, "Director Min and I are in charge of the performing arts department, which will attract the attention of countless people."

"What meeting are you having today?" Pei Zhuxuan asked curiously.

Su Jinxing has obviously held more meetings recently.

"In the internal reform meeting of the Performing Arts Department, I asked all the middle-level and above-level cadres of the Performing Arts Department to attend to discuss departmental changes in the Performing Arts Department." Su Jinxing did not hide anything from Pei Zhuxuan.

It stands to reason that this level of affairs is not something Pei Zhuxuan can know, but she is like a tree hole with no way out, and Su Jinxing is used to communicating with her about things that cannot be said to others.

"Reform in the Performing Arts Department?" Pei Zhuxuan looked at Su Jinxing in surprise, "How are you going to change it?"

"The Performing Arts Department has a production department, three planning groups, and other small departments. The functions have many overlapping functions and are too bloated."

"I plan to merge the three planning teams and establish a second-level department, the planning department, parallel to the production department. The other original second-level departments will only retain the production department, and the other functions will be divided into the planning department and the production department. .”

“The organizational structure of the planning department is similar to that of the production department, with ministers, directors and other positions set up, who are jointly responsible for the leadership of the performing arts department.”

"Is the secondary department similar to the legal department in the administrative department?" Pei Zhuxuan asked.

"Yes, the departments under the department are the second-level departments." Su Jinxing nodded, "Actually, I have always felt that the Legal Department should exist as a separate first-level department and be included in the Administration Department. As a second-level department, it is still too neglected. It’s the legal department.”

"If the law is used well, it will be a powerful tool."

SM’s legal department can be said to be the biggest loser among losers.

In fact, a company's legal department can definitely bring a lot of benefits to the company. Top companies in various fields have their own powerful legal departments.

Disney’s legal department is called “the strongest in the world.”

The legal department of the goose factory was dubbed "Nanshan Pizza Hut".

Apple’s legal department is chasing after its peers every day.

The benefits a strong legal department can earn are substantial.

If SM had a top-notch legal department, if artists wanted to unilaterally terminate the contract, they would encounter a lot of obstacles, including major losses.

However, SM does not have a legal department of this level.

The legal department of SM Company gave Su Jinxing the impression that a group of old, weak, sick and disabled people came here to eat and wait to die.

In summary, fart is useless.

Su Jinxing now has the final say in the performing arts department, setting up a secondary department where he and Min Xizhen can make the final decision.

However, if a second-level department like the Legal Department is separated from the Administration Department and established as a first-level department, it may even be necessary to set up the position of Legal Director.

This kind of thing needs the approval of the president and the chairman, and it must be submitted to the shareholders' meeting for approval.

This kind of thing needs to be planned after Su Jinxing takes charge of SM. It's too early now and he doesn't have enough say.

"I don't understand this." Pei Zhuxuan said truthfully and shook his head.

"I still think it's better for you to build the entertainment department into your own foundation first." Bae Zhuhyun suggested.

"I understand." Su Jinxing laughed, "Director Min and I have the same idea as you."

"Then it seems you didn't train me in vain." Pei Zhuxuan also laughed. Su Jinxing was obviously cultivating her sensitivity to company affairs, and her self-esteem was greatly improved.

Su Jinxing couldn't stop laughing.

"But why did you cultivate my ability in this area? This is a question that I am very curious about." Pei Zhuxuan asked the doubts in his heart.

Su Jinxing had been telling her about these company affairs intentionally or unintentionally from very early on. These things were basically not the inside story that she had access to, but Su Jinxing still told her and explained to her what she didn't understand. place.

This makes Pei Zhuxuan feel very strange, why?
"People often say that character determines destiny."

"Your character of not fighting or grabbing allows you to always stay on the outside and look at things from an outsider's perspective. This is your talent, and it is also the ability that I value."

"I can't do what you do without fighting or grabbing, so I may get into deep trouble in the future. I need someone to cheer me up at that time."

Pei Zhuxuan looked at Su Jinxing opposite, feeling a little confused.

She is so powerful?

"Can I give you a hand?"

"I don't know, who knows what will happen in the future." Su Jinxing said with a smile, "I am a businessman, and this is an investment I made."

Pei Zhuxuan seemed to understand but not understand.

"Forget it, no matter if it's me or not, I will stand with you." Pei Zhuxuan said to Su Jinxing seriously without thinking about so many things.

Su Jinxing laughed when he heard this.

"it is good."
