"Yes, President! I will definitely do my best to assist Manager Kang Woo-hyuk!"

Pei Zhonghan's attitude became increasingly respectful, his head slightly lowered.

He... must seize this opportunity!

must!

Lee Sung-soo took in his reaction, nodded at him with satisfaction, and then said, "Alright, alright, everyone, don't stand up, sit down and let's talk."

The group followed instructions and took their seats in the reception area.

Lee Sung-soo looked at Kang Woo-hyuk and asked with a smile, "Woo-hyuk, although the entertainment department only has the two of you for now, at least you have a backbone."

"We can gradually fill the space, but we still need to establish a plan as soon as possible. In your opinion, what should we do next?"

Jiang Yuhe didn't even hesitate to ask.

Having lived through the information explosion era of his previous life,

Even if you've never eaten pork, you've at least seen a pig run.

"The most urgent task is, of course, to fill in the basic organizational structure and core personnel as soon as possible."

Jiang Yuhe spoke calmly and clearly, "The artists are naturally the core, but the professional teams surrounding them are equally indispensable."

"Professionals for positions like agents, executive agents, stylists, voice coaches, and dance teachers must be fully staffed as soon as possible."

"Otherwise, even if we sign artists or recruit trainees, we won't be able to provide professional services and support."

Lee Sung-soo nodded in agreement, then turned to Choi Seung-jun and said, "Seung-jun, did you hear that? Why don't we get those guys to do some more work?"

"We need to draw some professionals from their family's or related entertainment companies and find a way to fill the positions."

Choi Seung-jun nodded. "Yes, I'll go and make the arrangements later. Since you're thinking of getting on the ship, it's only right that I do my part."

"And then there are the celebrities..."

Jiang Yuhe continued, "For other positions, as long as you're willing to spend the money, you can always find a suitable one."

"But artists, especially mature artists who can create value for us, are something that can only be encountered by chance."

"What's so difficult about that?"

Upon hearing this, Lee Sung-soo laughed heartily, "What, have you got your eye on anyone? Tell me their names, and I'll go get them for you!"

He spoke so casually, as if he weren't talking about people, but rather about products displayed on a shelf.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yuhe's expression turned strange.

He was well aware that these two elder brothers had powerful backgrounds and extensive connections.

But that's not how it's done.

Thinking of this, he quickly waved his hand and repeatedly dissuaded him, saying, "Sung-soo hyung, that's not the point."

"Poaching players is certainly a quick way to fill out the roster, and I understand that."

"But for those already famous artists, what they value is no longer money, but rather future development resources, the quality of their work, and long-term planning..."

"Moreover, poaching established artists requires a considerable price to pay, plus subsequent resource investment... not to mention the returns, the act itself has already deviated from our original intention."

"The original intention..."

Lee Sung-soo and Choi Seung-jun exchanged a glance, then both dropped their casual expressions and nodded seriously.

"you're right!"

Lee Sung-soo touched his chin sheepishly, "Forced relationships are not only unsatisfactory, but they can also easily ruin your reputation."

He turned to look at Jiang Yuhe, "Then Yuhe, let me ask you, how should we take this first step?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yuhe breathed a sigh of relief.

"My inclination is that instead of spending huge sums of money to poach established top artists, we should focus on those with potential."

"The initial investment for these types of artists is relatively small, and the risks are manageable. If managed properly, they have the potential to unleash amazing potential, and the return on investment will be relatively high!"

He wasn't making baseless accusations.

Because such examples are not uncommon in the entertainment industry.

Some people reach their peak right from their debut, but most people accumulate experience and then unleash their full potential, eventually rising to prominence when their masterpiece arrives!

What they lack... might just be the right script, or the right song.

For example, Kim Soo-hyun, who was condemned as a scumbag in later generations, is still a nobody now.

Who could have predicted that he would first enter the public eye with "Dream High," and then have his popularity explode with "The Moon Embracing the Sun"...

Of course, there's also that phenomenal work that swept across Asia and generated countless discussions:

My Love from the Star.

Similarly, there's Song Joong-ki.

His career didn't really take off until "Descendants of the Sun" became a huge hit!

And there is...

Jiang Yuhe's thoughts suddenly stopped, and a name popped into his mind.

Oh, right, Gong Yoo.

The male lead who will be co-starring with him in "Coffee Prince".

With a calm demeanor, solid acting skills, and unique personal charm... she's a ready-made potential star!

Upon hearing this, Lee Sung-soo and the others fell into deep thought, and after a long while, they nodded in agreement.

"So, Woo-hyuk, do you have any suitable candidates to recommend?" Lee Sung-soo asked.

"some."

Kang Woo-hyuk nodded. "Sung-soo hyung also knows that I will be starring in MBC's 'Coffee Prince' soon. The male lead of that drama is Gong Yoo, and I think he's pretty good."

"Gong Yoo?"

Lee Sung-soo and Choi Seung-jun were both taken aback upon hearing this.

Clearly, the name was completely unfamiliar to them.

"I've hardly heard of it."

Choi Seung-joon frowned slightly. "Which company exactly? And... Woo-hyuk, are you really sure he has potential?"

"Sure."

Jiang Yuhe nodded with a confident expression.

Potential? It's more than just potential.

"Silenced," "Train to Busan," "Goblin"... which one isn't a resounding masterpiece?

But then he awkwardly added, "However, I really don't know which company he belongs to."

At this moment, Pei Zhonghan, who had been sitting upright, suddenly spoke.

"Um... President Lee, President Choi, Manager Kang, I do know a little about Gong Yoo's situation."

All three eyes turned to him, making Pei Zhonghan feel even more pressured.

But he still straightened up and spoke in a steady tone, "Gong Yoo should still be under SidusHQ, which is the top actor agency in South Korea. Backed by SK, it has extremely strong resources."

"If we're trying to poach people from SidusHQ, I'm afraid..."

Although he stopped there, his meaning was clear: it's probably unrealistic to try and poach Gong Yoo from SidusHQ.

"SidusHQ? SK?"

Lee Sung-soo and Choi Seung-jun burst into laughter upon hearing this.

"Ha, SidusHQ..."

Lee Sung-soo smiled easily as he looked at Choi Seung-jun, "Seung-jun, I'll leave this matter to you. Talk to them and see what Gong Yoo's intentions are."

"Tell him that we can provide the same resources that SidusHQ can provide, and even more."

Jiang Yuhe was clearly also somewhat stunned.

The plot twists and turns left him momentarily speechless.

After going around in circles, it still ends up being a matter of transferring money from one hand to the other?

It can only be said that the power of South Korea's major families is already deeply entrenched, after all, this is a country that is hijacked by chaebols.
