Peninsula: After Bai Yueguang left, I went crazy killing people!

Chapter 276 Starship's Response (4k)

night.

Starship Entertainment, brightly lit!

Almost all the senior executives of the starship gathered in the largest conference room.

Sitting in the main seat, Jin Shidai's face was as gloomy as ink, giving people the feeling that he was a powder keg that might explode at any time.

The people below were trembling with fear and lowered their heads, fearing that they would be caught in the flames of war if they were not careful.

However, a middle-aged man wearing white-framed glasses pushed his glasses and took the initiative to say, "I think the most urgent thing is to find a way to deal with the media. Although the incubation time of the girl group is a bit tight, it should be no problem to start the expedited plan. However, Starship is not just an idol company. If the most important acting department is really implicated because of the company's reputation, the consequences will be the most serious."

After that, everyone was thoughtful.

Starship is a company that started out as an actor company.

Once an actor's reputation is damaged due to company affairs, it will inevitably affect the contract issues of the actor's department.

This will affect the foundation of Starship Entertainment.

"Li Xunxi, you can't say that."

A Mediterranean man on the other side couldn't help but say, "The company's actor department is currently saturated, and the top priority is to actively explore the idol market. After SISTAR and Cosmic Girls, the company's influence in this market has been very weak. It's not easy to hatch a girl group that everyone expects, so we need to proceed steadily and not be too impatient."

"Park Nanyeol, don't talk so nicely. Aren't you just concerned about the impact of the girl group's incubation on the company's stock price?"

Someone couldn't help but sneer and said, "Do you really think others don't know that you asked your family to buy the company's shares a few months ago?"

"The company's stock price is rising. Do you think this is a bad thing?"

Park Nam-yeol snapped back, “Do you know how much Starship’s stock price has risen after today’s press conference?”

As he spoke, he stood up and said to the person who had come before him, "Because of the expectations and optimism from all walks of life, it has risen by seven points. This is the data from the first day. If it can be successfully hatched, the strategy room predicts that it will reach eleven points. Chen Yuwen, as a logistics person, can you calculate how much money this is?"

"Money, money, money. All you can think of is money. Do you know what "overpraising" means? If the huge social attention and expectations are not met, it will inevitably cause a huge backlash. Li Yang's speech in front of the media means that we don't have much time left."

"When you start a business, what else can you value other than money? Can you value feelings? Can't you take steady steps when you don't have much time?"

"I think this is true. Business is all about opportunities and risks."

"It's easy to say. You're not in the planning department. Don't you know anything about the K-pop market? Even a strong group like Girls' Generation was questioned. Have you ever seen the strength of the artists in your company?"

The conference room was like a lit firecracker, with more and more people joining in the argument, expressing their own opinions, and it was very intense.

"Okay, stop arguing!"

Jin Shidai's face was gloomy, and he said, "What we want is a solution to the problem, not to watch you fight like a vegetable market."

As soon as the words came out, there was silence.

Method?

If there was a way, we wouldn't argue.

It's because there's no other way that everyone is arguing so loudly out of frustration.

"Boom boom boom——"

The sound of the pen tapping on the table was unusually clear in the quiet conference room.

Everyone looked and found that the source of the voice was Li Xunxi who spoke at the beginning.

"I think Representative Kim is right. Arguing is useless. The purpose of the meeting is to come up with a solution."

Li Xunxi pushed his glasses and said slowly, "Since no one has any suggestions, I will tell you my thoughts first."

He looked at everyone and said, "Whether it's the reputation of Starship or the shortening of the incubation period of the new girl group, in my opinion, there is actually a key role that cannot be avoided, and that is Li Yang."

"Isn't this nonsense?" Someone muttered in a low voice with some disdain.

Everyone here knows that all the troubles originated from today's press conference.

Driven by the huge amount of real traffic, Starship suddenly became the target of public criticism, and even the public relations department’s emergency public relations plan was helpless.

Millions of active users have attracted the attention of the public, making it impossible for them to wash away their shame.
In short, this incident has caused too much heat.

Some small actions will be magnified countless times in an instant, and traditional Internet public relations are almost powerless to do anything, which is why it is so passive.

Li Xunxi took a silent look and remembered the man's name.

"What can Director Li Xunxi do?" someone asked with concern.

"Instead of thinking about PR issues, I think it's better to focus all our energy on incubating the girl group and try to optimize the plan in the shortest possible time. As for social opinion issues,

Li Xunxi said slowly: "I personally think that whether it is Yuzhen's unilateral breach of contract, or Xu Mingnan's deliberate lateness, or the previous scandal..."

He subconsciously glanced at Golden Era, paused, and said, "In everyone's eyes, we are the ones who made the mistake first. Since the public relations problem cannot be solved, we might as well admit our mistakes and restore the company's reputation as much as possible."

When these words were spoken, everyone present was surprised.

"What a joke! Starship Entertainment apologized to a popular blogger. How will its peers view the image of Starship?"

The director of the Public Relations Department was dissatisfied and said, "I think you are crazy."

"Faced with such a negative impact, the PR department had no response measures at all."

Li Xunxi looked over and said seriously, "Honestly, if I were you, I would choose to keep my mouth shut now. At least this way, the shareholders and senior executives present would not notice that the PR department is a waste."

"Who are you calling a loser?" The director of the public relations department stood up and said sternly.

"What do you think?"

Li Xunxi said calmly: "Once the company's acting department is also affected by this negative public opinion, I hope you can still talk to me so toughly then."

He looked at everyone and said, "I believe you all understand the attitude of the Writers Association towards actors in order to protect the status of all writers. As a film and television company, if we provoke the Writers Association's dislike because of such a small matter, that would be the most costly consequence."

"I think you are worrying too much. Li Yang is just a small screenwriter and not even a member of the Writers Association. As for..."

"Li Yang is not a member of the Workers' Union, but six protest cars were parked downstairs of SM a while ago!"

Li Xunxi reminded: "Everyone, this is no longer the old era, but the Internet era. Traffic is a knife that can really kill people without shedding blood. And Li Yang has already told us through the SM incident that he is a person who is very good at using this knife."

He said slowly, "I can tell you responsibly that Li Yang is not a member of the Writers Association, but he will definitely use his traffic to force the Writers Association to come to the fore. His huge overseas fans will not only be liked by K-pop, but also by the arrogant screenwriters and writers in the Writers Association. No one who creates can resist the temptation of leaving a name in history, and they will definitely come forward happily at that time."

"Hey, Li Xunxi, is it because you have worked in the TV station for too long that you have imagined your enemies too much?"

Someone mocked: "Or are you just exaggerating?"

"I don't want to argue, and I'm too lazy to argue." Li Xunxi looked at the young man dressed like an idol across from him and said, "I'm just talking about the result I saw. Whether to accept it or not is everyone's problem."

Then he said seriously: "Director Xu Canyu, if you have any suggestions for solving the problem, you can also bring them up. I will be happy to listen."

"I"

Xu Canyu's face froze and he was suddenly speechless.

Some people around immediately sneered with disdain.

Does Xu Canyu have any solution?
It would be strange if a good-for-nothing who got into the company through the relationship with the representative's wife could do anything.

In fact, it’s not just Xu Canyu.

Ever since the Golden Age couple came to power, almost all of the company's management has been made up of their cronies, and they are all useless trash.

Today, with all the shareholders present, these guys have become cautious and restrained.

Under normal circumstances, the so-called high-level meeting would be nothing more than a one-man show by the Golden Age couple.

Thinking of this, everyone looked at Li Xunxi with some surprise.

No one seemed to have expected that this behind-the-scenes planner of KBS's famous multi-company programs would also be so clear-minded and methodical in handling company issues.

The director of the public relations department laughed angrily and said, "After all, a huge company like Starship Entertainment has been tied down by a small internet celebrity. In my opinion, instead of apologizing, it's better to just ban them."

Then he suggested, "Hasn't the head of YouTube's Asia-Pacific region always wanted to invest in a film and television company in Peninsula? We can just cooperate and talk about it based on the actor department."

At this point, he paused, smiled playfully, and said, "I heard that Li Yang's previous live broadcasts were not healthy. I guess they just searched for information and put a hood on him to get rid of him."

As soon as the words fell, the atmosphere in the conference room almost froze.

The senior executives looked at him as if he were a fool.

"What? Was what I said wrong?" The director of the public relations department was a little dumbfounded.

As he spoke, he turned his head and looked at Zhang Yunan, who had a gloomy face, following everyone's gaze. Then he suddenly realized what had happened, and then beads of sweat the size of rice grains instantly slid down his forehead.

Hey!
Forgot this ancestor.

The Peninsula market pie is only this big.

As a subsidiary of Kakao, Starship has been actively exploring the shortcomings of Starship's commercial monetization, and film and television dramas are naturally one of the directions.

Now, he actually took the initiative to propose YouTube to join the market at a high-level meeting, which is undoubtedly seeking his own death.

In particular, he was a close confidant of the Golden Age.
At the meeting, some people who had been dissatisfied for a long time could not help but start laughing.

indeed
What do you think Kakao will think of you speaking so loudly in such a close relationship during a high-level meeting?
Was it an unintentional mistake by the director of your public relations department, or did Golden Era have this intention in mind and deliberately let him come to test everyone's opinion?

Also, use the cooperation with Starship Film and Television to exchange for Li Yang?
Pig brain?

I wonder if YouTube dreams of entering the Eastern market?

Now, we have finally carefully opened a corner. Is this something that you can gain from the Peninsula’s film and television drama market?
The more everyone thought about it, the funnier it seemed.

This idiot wouldn't really think that without the resource deployment and traffic tilt of the YouTube platform, Li Yang could have reached his current level in just three years, right?
"Sorry, I just said it casually, I really didn't mean it."

The PR director's lips turned pale, his face was covered in cold sweat, and he bowed and apologized, "Zhang Yunan-nim, please don't take it to heart."

"Shut up!"

Jin Shidai's face turned livid and he shouted harshly.

Especially looking at Zhang Yunan’s expression, I felt like the blood vessels in my head were about to explode.

Zhang Yunan has always appeared as a good guy, and this is the first time he has seen the latter's expression like this.

This means that Zhang Yunan is really angry.

Although Kakao hardly participates in the management of its subsidiaries, if it does have an opinion, it can still have a huge impact on the company.
They even have the power to force a board meeting to replace representatives!

Li Xunxi continued to speak politely: "If this suggestion had been made three months ago, I would have gladly accepted it because it is the simplest approach. But now, I can only regretfully tell you that it won't work!"

He looked at everyone and said, "I've said before that Li Yang's advantage is the traffic treasure that the entire Korean entertainment market can't take its eyes off. He's a very smart person and knows his own advantages, so he took the initiative to rely on SBS and has SM as his back. He's no longer a character that we can easily touch."

As he spoke, Li Xunxi subconsciously glanced at Zhang Yunan. Obviously, there were some things that had not been said clearly.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Yunan made his position clear directly, saying: "Everyone, I believe everyone should be more or less clear that Kakao's subsidiary and Melon have completed the merger. I can tell you responsibly that Li Yang's idol card will soon be printed with the Melon logo. At the same time, Melon is also discussing the plan of publicly judging the artist's strength. These are all in progress."

“So, I’m here to express my attitude.”

Zhang Yunan glanced at the director of the public relations department, and then said seriously: "Kakao never interferes in normal business competition, but if there are any tricks behind the scenes, Kakao will let everyone see the corresponding attitude."

"Representative Zhang Yunan, please don't be angry. Starship has always been fair and just and will never do such dirty things."

Jin Shidai forced a smile, then looked around and said, "Does anyone have any other ideas?"

There was silence for a long time at the meeting.

"Then let's follow Director Li Xunxi's idea."

Jin Shidai looked over and said, "If you have any ideas, just say it directly."

"Then let me briefly explain it."

Li Xunxi said: "First, I will take Yuzhen to apologize and make our attitude clear."

He glanced at several people in the management and said, "Second, I suggest that those demands for recovery on the Internet be resolved together. Apologies should be made, and compensation should be paid instead."

"third."

Li Xunxi paused and said seriously: "Regarding the improper handling of the issue by the executives, the company needs to give an explanation to the shareholders and the artists' fans."

As soon as the words fell, the conference room exploded.
"Li Xunxi, what do you mean by this?"

"I don't think it's a good idea to cede territory and pay compensation. I need to think about it again."

"On behalf of nim, I think"

"okay!"

Jin Shidai scolded and looked at Li Xunxi with eyes as dark as ink.

Li Xunxi was neither humble nor arrogant, and his expression was calm.

for a long time
Jin Shidai said slowly: “That’s it!”
