The director was really drunk. He had never suffered such humiliation in his more than ten years of working in the industry.

He was obviously more right, but Zhang Yan was even more confident than him.

It was clearly the other party's responsibility, but after all the arguing, it became like he had breached the contract. Not only did he fail to use the terms of the contract to force Li Yiran out, he was also threatened by Zhang Yan.

"With your attitude, we have no choice but to leave today. Let's talk about whether you will come to the next recording later." After saying this, Zhang Yan twisted her hips and left.

The director's arrogance had long since subsided, and he stepped in front of her:

"We can slowly resolve the misunderstanding between us, but the recording of the show cannot be delayed."

Li Yiran still has one section left to record!

Zhang Yan pulled him away:

"We can't record anymore. Our artist is in a bad mood and angry. We don't treat him with disrespect like you do."

She pointed at the director's hand and said:
"Don't touch me, and don't follow me. If you have any problems, find a lawyer from our team. Calculate how much compensation you have to pay first."

After Zhang Yan left, the director immediately asked the assistant next to him:
"Why is Li Yiran angry?"

Powder room.

Li Yiran and Le Yan were sweetly feeding each other desserts, as if all the disputes outside had nothing to do with them.

Zhang Yan was aggressive outside, but became listless when she came back.

She closed the door, clapped her hands and said to Li Yiran:
"My ancestor! What are you doing? Are you really not going to record it? Why are you getting angry with the production team?"

As Li Yiran's agent, protecting Li Yiran must be the first principle when dealing with external teams. However, as a seasoned agent, she knows that the program team's request is not unreasonable.

It is indeed necessary to control the number of people when filming in a small studio. This is a rule known to everyone in the industry. Even the director crew is waiting outside, do you have to let Le Yan go in to accompany them?
Although this director is a newcomer in Superstar, he is still very famous in the industry, otherwise Superstar would not have approved a large budget for him as soon as he arrived, giving him the confidence to spend 5000 million on an artist.

When encountering such a generous production team, artists should actively cooperate and build good relationships, hoping that the God of Wealth will visit again.

Why did you stop performing?

Li Yiran had something in his mouth and was not able to speak.

She chewed hard and wanted to speak, but Le Yan spoke first.

Le Yan said to Zhang Yan in a protective manner:

"Don't worry, it's a small problem."

"Small problem?" Zhang Yan wanted to twist Le Yan's ear, but when she saw Li Yiran glaring at her, she put her hand down. "We are not in the right at all. If we really have to pay for the compensation, will you pay for it?"

Bullshitting is my style of fighting, but that's not how things really are.

Now that Li Yiran has left like this, how can we still have any reason?
Le Yan curled his lips in disapproval:
"Not reasonable?"

He pointed to the ground:

“This is a superstar.”

During this period, Ji Xueli kept telling Le Yan that whoever holds power holds everything.

Maybe we are indeed not in the right in this matter.

But this is a superstar.
Here, I am the reason.

"What do you want to do?" Zhang Yan asked anxiously.

Le Yan helped Li Yiran wipe his mouth and hands:

"Don't panic, I'll get someone."

He picked up his phone and dialed a number again.

The screen showed that Le Yan had called this number several times, but the call was never answered.

Le Yan sighed.

Sis, what are you doing?

If you don't come to protect me, I'll give this opportunity to take credit to Ji Xueli!
Kyoto.

Ever since Liu Min was transferred to the content division, the entire division has never gotten off work earlier than 9 p.m.

It was already eight o'clock in the evening, and she was still organizing a meeting for all employees. Even the boss Tian Ni had to accompany her.

"After the end of "Singer" and "Sing My Song", we haven't seen another phenomenal project of the same level. The program budgets are all top-notch, so why can't we create a hit? Have you ever reflected on this issue? What exactly is the problem?"

During this period, Liu Min’s work focus is to create another phenomenal variety show.

She has been in the content division for some time, but the two projects, "Sing Songs" and "Singer", were launched before she came and have nothing to do with her.

Now is the critical period for scoring, and she urgently needs achievements!
Everyone has become accustomed to Liu Min's strong working style.

She looked too much like Ye Xinchun. And she was born into a noble family. Faced with her attack, most people lowered their heads silently, and few dared to look her in the eye.

Liu Min looked at someone who dared to look her in the eye:
“Speak freely.”

The colleague cleared his throat and replied nervously:
"Sing My Song became popular due to its unique program format. This type of program, which has never appeared in China before, set a precedent and reaped the first wave of dividends. Later, because of the relationship between Le Yan's new album and Li Yiran, the two huge forces pushed the program to reap the second wave of dividends. We also want to sort out some methodologies from this program, but the glory of Singer is a model that cannot be replicated. We can't expect Le Yan and Li Yiran to have another wave of scandals, right? They have both officially announced it."

Liu Min stared at him and said:

"Why can't we surpass it? We have reviewed "Singer" countless times. The promotional strategies were all thought up by LeYan himself. Even a non-professional can do it. How can we, who focus on content every day, come up with a second one?"

The man lowered his head and stopped talking.

Another person spoke up:
"The success of Sing My Song is also a model that cannot be replicated. Li Yiran joined the show with great fanfare, which attracted a lot of attention from the beginning. In addition, Le Yan's sudden appearance and his combination with Li Yiran made Sing My Song a phenomenal success. If they hadn't combined, it would have been difficult to reach the same heights."

Liu Min asked the man again:
"There are only two artists in the entertainment industry, Le Yan and Li Yiran? Without them, we can't make the next "Sing My Song"? What about the second season? What about the third season? I told you about Mr. Ye's expectations for this IP. Whether it is the number of views or the amount of investment, the data must be significantly improved every year."

Liu Min said this with great confidence.

But she knows very well that the biggest contributors to the rise of Superstar Content are Li Yiran and Le Yan.

But we can't keep picking on these two people.
Can't we produce good content without them?
When Liu Min brought up Ye Xinchun, no one dared to speak anymore.

They only dared to discuss in whispers.

"Who else in the domestic entertainment industry has the same appeal and ability to attract attention as them?"

"I can't think of it. I really can't think of it."

"These two phenomenal variety shows are inextricably linked to the two of them, unless they can be reunited again."

Tian Ni, who had been silent all this time, pushed up her glasses:
"They're going to be together again soon."

This news is the most mentioned thing in the content division recently.

But
"They only collaborated on one episode, and the show didn't do well after it aired. Even if they made a splash through this episode, it would be hard to reach the level of The Singer and Sing My Song."

Liu Min frowned:

"When did the content become completely dependent on the quality of the guest lineup? Then what is the meaning of so many of us existing in the company?"

At this moment, there was a gentle knock on the door of the conference room.

Ji Xueli poked his head in, his eyes moved between Tian Ni and Liu Min twice, and finally landed on Tian Ni:

"Mr. Tian, ​​please come out for a moment. I have something urgent to discuss with you."

The boss left and the meeting ended temporarily.

When Liu Min walked out, she took out her cell phone and found five missed calls from Le Yan.

She habitually keeps muted during meetings. What’s the matter, Le Yan?

Just as I was about to call back, Le Yan called again.

Liu Min said softly, and Le Yan's slightly guilty voice came from the other side:
"I got into trouble."

Tianni's office.

Ji Xueli and Tian Ni sat opposite each other at the table with a mobile phone placed between them.

"How come there are fans in the studio? Tell me the truth, did you let them out?" Tian Ni asked calmly.

Ji Xueli came to file a complaint.

He said that someone from Le Yan's team asked him to help delete the post. He asked about the situation carefully and felt something was wrong. As an experienced person, he not only asked the platform to delete the post but also took a careful look online. He suspected that the crew had released it on purpose.

Is there a traitor in the content division?
Was the content leaked still Le Yan's?
Tian Ni’s first reaction when she heard it was: Impossible!

Even if they wanted to make some small move, they wouldn't dare to do it to Le Yan's head!
Isn't that hitting the aorta?
There is a road to heaven but you don't take it, there is no door to hell but you insist on breaking in? ?
Is your brain going crazy? !

So she called the director in person in front of Ji Xueli, trying to dispel Ji Xueli's suspicion.

The director didn't know that there was someone around Tian Ni, nor did he know that the phone was now on speaker mode.

In fact, Tian Ni put a lot of effort into recruiting this director.

She still interacted with him frequently in private. The director felt that Tian Ni was one of his own, so he boldly said something that made Ji Xueli explode:
"Mr. Tian, ​​we can't keep pampering those artists. This is obviously a mutually beneficial thing. I don't understand why it is so difficult to communicate--"

Before he could finish, Tian Ni stopped him loudly:

"Excessive!"

Tian Ni was so scared that she broke out in a cold sweat.

"We can't spoil those artists" is indeed a topic that people who create content often discuss in private.

As both parties of the program, the artist team and the program crew often have frictions of one kind or another.

The program team wanted the artist to go to the East, but the artist felt that the East was not suitable for him and said that the program team did not understand him.

The artist wanted to go to the West, but the production team thought there was nothing good to film in the West and said that the artist only cared about himself and not the content.

This is indeed a contradiction, but Ji Xueli is on the opposite side.
He is in charge of the artists!
Ji Xueli has been very popular recently in Superstar, and Ye Xinchun often assigns important tasks to him.

Before, it was Ji Xueli who licked Tian Ni, now it is Tian Ni who licks Ji Xueli in 365 spirals
Is this going to drag me down too?
"Stop posting immediately, delete everything that has been sent out, and deal with it as soon as possible!" Tian Ni said angrily.

The director was stunned for a moment, then quickly agreed:

"Okay, I'll deal with it."

Ji Xueli stopped talking, crossed his legs, and had a strange smile on his face.

Don’t worry, I’ll talk it over with you after we hang up.

"Go now, right away!" Tian Ni urged.

She wanted to hang up the phone as soon as possible and deal with Ji Xueli, but the person on the other end of the phone spoke again:

"Mr. Tian, ​​there is one more thing I want to tell you."

"Speak." Tian Ni's tone was filled with deep fatigue.

She has Liu Min's pressure above her, and the people below her also make her worry.

There are too many internal and external troubles.
But fortunately, the situation is under control as long as Ji Xueli's mouth is shut.

This matter is known to heaven and earth, and to you and me.

Never offend Le Yan!

"When we were filming a solo interview with Li Yiran today, we limited the number of people to prevent noise. You know, I was just following the rules. Every crew does this. But Li Yiran forcefully asked Le Yan to go in with him. The security guard just stopped her for a moment, but she acted like a big shot and refused to record, and threatened not to participate in the future recordings."

The director's tone was quite strong when he said this.

It was indeed his fault for leaking the photo, I deleted it.

But when he followed the rules, Li Yiran's team turned around and threatened him.

Lord, you must do this for me!

The director heard a loud bang on the other end of the phone and thought Tian Ni was angry.

Just as I breathed a sigh of relief, Tian Ni's roar came from the phone:

"Li Yiran is being a big shot, so listen to me! Where is she now? Where is Le Yan? Go and apologize to them right now! Right now!!"

Without waiting for the director to say anything else, Tian Ni hung up the phone.

She picked up the shattered glasses that had just been thrown away, put them together awkwardly, and said to Ji Xueli with a smile:
"I'm sorry, Xueli. I lost control of my emotions. I hope I didn't scare you."

Ji Xueli had never seen Tian Ni in this state before.

Ji Xueli's expression at this moment was something Tian Ni had never seen before.

There was not a trace of smile on his face, his entire face seemed to be covered with a layer of frost:
“Is this how you treat your company’s artists?”

Tian Ni almost fell off the chair.

What a big hat!
"Don't be angry. The director is just following the rules. There must be a misunderstanding."

Tian Ni was very miserable.

Although she knew the situation was very serious, she could not put on this hat.

Just like Zhang Yan’s mentality, no matter how wrong she is, she has to bite the bullet and explain.

She stood up to make tea and said with a smile:
"Xue Li, I will definitely give Le Yan and Li Yiran an explanation for this matter, don't worry."

Tian Ni was talking about explaining to Li Yiran and Le Yan, not to Ji Xueli.

She was reminding Ji Xueli that Le Yan and Li Yiran had nothing to do with you.

Just don’t worry about it!
Of course Tian Ni knew that Ji Xueli and Le Yan were very good friends, otherwise she would not have interrupted the meeting to find her after hearing the news.

But if we can solve one, it’s one.

In her impression, Ji Xueli is a man with a very good sense of propriety, and there are ways to deal with him if she wants to.

"Haven't you always wanted to sign Guo Chen? I have a good relationship with his agent. I'll host a party one day and we can all sit down and get together."

Ji Xueli's reaction broke Tian Ni's previous perception of him.

His expression became even worse, and he asked seriously:

"I am the company's deputy general manager and have supervisory responsibilities for all departments of the company. You must give me an explanation. Is this how your content division treats the company's artists?"

When Tian Ni was pouring tea for Ji Xueli, her hand shook and the tea splashed all over the table.

At this moment, Tian Ni was also splitting apart like the tea.

Ji Xueli, the good-natured man who is respectful to everyone, actually uses his position to suppress her?

She raised her head in horror and looked at the blurry and unfamiliar face opposite her.

Ji Xueli has changed.
After Ji Xueli left, Tian Ni's back was covered in sweat.

No matter whether she used soft or hard tactics, meat or vegetables, Ji Xueli refused to eat them all and kept asking her, "Is this how your content division treats the company's artists?"

Although Tian Ni tried her best to explain, it had little effect.

The two of them didn't come to any conclusion from the conversation, and Ji Xuesheng walked away angrily.

Just as she was thinking about what to do next, she heard someone knocking on the door.

Tian Ni pressed her brows and said tiredly:
"Please come in."

Before I could see who was coming, I heard a stern voice:

"How do you manage your subordinates? Why did you make such a serious mistake? We discuss how important Le Yan and Li Yiran are to the content division every day. Why don't the directors know this and still provoke them?"

Tian Ni stood up with a start, thinking that Ye Xinchun had come!
But when I looked up, it was Liu Min
That’s right, a girl in her twenties actually dared to accuse Tian Ni, who was nearly fifty years old.

When Tian Ni saw who was coming, her whole body immediately went limp.

Ji Xueli is an outsider. No matter what, she has to protect the reputation of the department and cannot admit her mistakes easily.

Artists and content are the two most important business pillars of the company.

If she took a step back, the entire department would be implicated.

But Liu Min is an insider
She has to take the blame for this.

"I failed in my job." Tian Ni said slowly.

Since coming to Superstar, she has focused most of her energy on discovering external directors, expanding the team, and replacing blood. After the expansion is completed, the content quality is her main focus.

But the influx of a large amount of fresh blood will also cause temporary internal chaos.

Some things can't be said directly.

For example, Le Yan must not cause such talk in the company, so how can she say this to every director?

There has always been a discussion within the company about which is the foundation of the company, content or artists, and she couldn't say it out loud.

Does she, as the leader, have to personally admit that the company puts artists first?

Therefore, she would only give special instructions to directors who have a cooperative relationship with Le Yan, and she would do it in a particularly subtle way, like Su Tian.

This director has no relationship with Le Yan, and she didn't expect Le Yan to visit the set.
But if you get beaten, you have to stand at attention. She is indeed responsible for this matter.

Liu Min didn't come to listen to Tian Ni's apology. She sat in the seat where Ji Xueli had just sat:
"We need to come up with a remedy right now. We need to calm the anger of Le Yan and Li Yiran, but we also need to prevent other departments in the company from thinking that we put the artists first."

Tian Ni looked across tiredly.

Liu Min's figure and Ji Xueli's figure gradually overlapped.

She suddenly had a strange thought: Is something big going to happen in the company? (End of this chapter)
