After becoming the son of the boss [entertainment circle]

Out of the idea of ​​boosting morale, on the weekend after the second Black Sea incident, Li Xianyin held an internal relocation party to celebrate the official opening of SM's new building.

Because this building has already held a press conference when the main building was completed, so according to Li Xianyin's original idea, when the interior decoration is completed and the employees of the headquarters and various subsidiaries officially move in, there is no need to hold a press conference. Have a housewarming event.

But under the gloomy expression of Shun Kyu's student, Li Xianyin changed his mind and planned to hold a party for everyone to relax after the employees officially settled in the new building.

This "everyone" includes Toshin, SJ, Girls' Generation and other idol groups in the headquarter, as well as most of the actors, comedians, anchors and athletes in the subsidiaries. In addition, all the logistics of the headquarter and the subsidiaries Employees, employees of S.MRE and S.MM-ent TV stations, as well as employees of the law firm and financial institution acquired by Lee Hyun Yin were also able to participate in the party.

However, if employees don't want to participate, they don't have to come. This is not a mandatory activity.

Because it was an internal party, SM did not invite any media to the event, and even if there were some who came forward, they were stopped by the conscientious security guards.

And the artists had obviously been reminded by their managers a long time ago. Facing the reporter's camera, they just smiled and nodded, but they didn't mean to stop for an interview. They all entered the gate as quickly as possible, completely Disappeared in everyone's sight.

The reporters who have never been able to take many useful pictures are speechless. They have no doubt that if it is not because the parking lot of the new SM building is open-air and the location is right in front of the gate, they may even take pictures of these artists entering the gate. less than.

As a company that mainly deals with idol groups, SM used to seldom refuse media attention. No matter what event is held, whether the event is public or not, and whether it is convenient for SM to receive the media, as long as the camera has scanned it, SM will quickly follow the media's request and push the artists to the front of the stage to answer those questions that are not well-intentioned.

This is not to say that SM has no confidence when facing the media and is a weak side. In fact, SM is still very well connected in the media. Sometimes even if the money is not enough, there will still be people who will take the initiative to help them suppress Negative news, ordinary companies don't get this kind of treatment.

The reason why SM is willing to do its best to meet the media's interview and shooting requirements is related to Li Xiuman's long-standing concept of making stars.

Li Xiuman felt that in a career like idols, apart from excellent songs and personal charm, the most important thing is the exposure rate. Regardless of good or bad things, if you can maintain the exposure rate, it is already a victory. Black and red are also Red, it's better than no media is willing to report.

But now, Lee Hyun Yin is still the president of SM, he will not ask artists to obey the media unconditionally.

What annoyed the reporters even more was that although reporters were not allowed to enter the party to take pictures, they did not stop the employees in the venue from posting party photos on the Internet, not to mention the artists, even many support staff uploaded them one after another. A large number of party photos, including many pictures related to Lee Hyun Yin.

To put it bluntly, Li Xianyin just didn't want to give this wave of enthusiasm to the reporters and the media, and he didn't want them to take the opportunity to come up with news that would affect his mood.

But obviously, this approach will only annoy the reporters, especially when they see photos of the party flying all over the Internet, the sense of aggrieved reporters will only become stronger.

What's more, those who didn't grab the news didn't know how to go back and explain to the editor-in-chief. They thought that they could get big news because of the rare incident related to Li Xianyin recently, so what can they do now?

While the reporters were secretly struggling, the topic about this housewarming party had successfully risen to the bottom of the hot search list. Compared with the number of views, the number of comments under the topic increased significantly faster than other hot searches.

And it is different from the fan-black war when discussing Li Xianyin, the atmosphere under this topic is extremely harmonious, everyone is envious of SM's excellent employee treatment, and even some students who are about to graduate are asking how to get into SM's work, that kind of real deal I can't hide my longing.

This is also a normal situation. Tonight, many employees working in SM and its subsidiaries have posted news. From the photos they uploaded from various angles, it can be easily seen that this party must have cost a lot of money to hold. .

There are thirty or forty tables of delicacies from mountains and seas indoors, and there is an outdoor barbecue on the roof, surrounded by beautiful or famous entertainer anchors and elite lawyers, and the game session in the middle also looks very interesting.

The most important thing is that none of the people present was wearing formal clothes. Many "old antiques" including Li Xiuman took off their suits and sat around the round table in the southwest corner of the hall with the management of several subsidiaries. Fans are already so familiar with Li Xiuman's old face that they can't recognize who these people in casual shirts are at first glance.

This made the atmosphere at the scene look very relaxed. Not to mention that ordinary employees can also talk with the company's senior management, it is indeed a bit unrealistic, but at least they will not be so nervous because of the presence of their bosses that they can't eat. Don't dare to leave your seat to give up those fun party activities.

From the perspective of Korean social animals who have been double-oppressed by seniors and superiors all year round, this is enough to satisfy people, indicating that the working atmosphere in SM must be very good-at least when Li Xianyin was the president of SM, this kind of good The situation should not be changed.

"Although I don't like Li Xianyin very much, I have to say that working under him is really comfortable. According to my friends who work in S.MC&C, working in their company really only needs to concentrate on work. , don’t have to attend strange department dinners, and rarely work overtime until midnight.”

"That's true. I heard that the small president made a lot of reforms to the company's system after he took office, and after that, all SM's subsidiaries were broken up by him and then reorganized. A large part of the leadership changed. Setting workplace rules within the company works well.”

"According to what you say, is Li Xianyin a hard-line reformer? It doesn't look like it."

"What's different? Li Xianyin looks a bit deceptive. Judging by his previous savage ways of doing things, he can't be a weak person..."

"The cafeteria in the new SM building is like a hotel box."

"Thinking too much, the hotel doesn't have such a big box [funny]"

"They're all migrant workers. They hold lobster, seafood, Korean beef and abalone for their party. Our department's party is a barbecue restaurant that never changes. Is there such a big gap!"

"As a deep social fear, even if I can have a big meal for nothing, I don't want to participate in any company's dinner party. SM's other employee benefits are the most attractive. I heard that their staff dormitory started in June. You can move in right away, which should be very attractive to young people who are new to Seoul."

After quickly browsing through the main content of the comment area, the reporters who were unexpectedly deflated were even more frustrated. Seeing that there was popularity but they could not provide them with views, this was something they had rarely encountered before.

After all, they are all entertainment reporters, and they have suffered much less setbacks than social journalists in interviewing.

Because of this, some people were not reconciled to being annoyed. After returning to the newspaper, they chose to find another way, carrying party-related tags, but began to write unrelated press releases, and even a large part of them were Criticism of SM's slanderous drafts can be said to be both hype and venting dissatisfaction.

Li Xianyin, who was so bored at the party that he swiped his phone to play, naturally also saw these press releases that burst out in a short period of time. Among them, some questioned that SM was deliberately putting on a show to show the company's strength, and some were curious about SM. Why do they have so much money? After all, many big companies are still laying off employees. As a result, SM happily held a housewarming party. The sense of disobedience is really too strong.

There are also some media equipped with microscopes who quickly found a blind spot after seeing all the photos on the Internet, claiming that Jo In-sung, an actor under S.MC&C, did not attend the party. terminate the contract.

And they also grasped this point and analyzed it, as if Jo In Sung’s choice to “abandon” SM was the right decision, because SM couldn’t provide him with enough help, which led to the departure of the leading male star, it seemed that S.MC&C seemed very unprofessional like.

Li Xianyin thinks it's a little funny, the media's ability to open up ideas and talk nonsense is really invincible, sometimes even a little bit of irrelevant clues can be caught by them and played up, even though the logic lines in it can be called a mess , but they can still be said clearly.

At first glance it seems believable.

These entertainment media actually don’t really care about whether the news they report is true or not. Anyway, it’s enough to earn clicks and page views, not to mention hacking SM that shut them down. Who cares so much? ?

But what even these reporters and editors didn't expect was that they were really mistaken this time - Jo In Sung was indeed about to terminate his contract with S.MC&C.

Jo In-sung is a very well-known actor in South Korea, and he became famous very early. Judging from the appearance of his face, the flowering period should be relatively long, but he will start military service next year, and because of his high status, His contract with S.MC&C is signed once a year.

This makes the company not dare to invest a lot in him. If this year spends resources to make him more popular, and he switches to other companies next year, SM will simply lose money.

Of course, after SM invested, "Frost Flower Shop" would actually be counted as a resource of S.MC&C, but Jo In-sung had already signed a contract with the film producer before they invested, so it can't be regarded as SM specially doing it for him. The job opportunities provided are at best financial support.

Under such circumstances, Zhao Yincheng is somewhat dissatisfied, but as long as he is unwilling to sign a long-term contract of more than two years—in fact, two years is not a long-term contract at all—this situation cannot be changed at all.

And the only solution is to terminate the contract.

Since no one can convince anyone, let's just get together and break up.

Li Xianyin feels that SM already has its own TV station, and after a few months, he can still get MegaboxPlusM, a film distribution company, from Lu Suying, and when everything is settled, he will spend money to buy shares Some movie production companies.

By that time, SM's film and television resources will have doubled, and they can fully use the clarion call of cultivating young actors, and as long as one or two of them succeed in becoming famous, it is enough to recover all the investment.

Young actors tend to be more aggressive, can earn more money, and are easier to sign long-term contracts with the company, without worrying that the company will be kicked out immediately after making them popular.

So Lee Hyun Yin hardly expressed anything about Jo In Sung's departure, but obviously, when this news is officially announced, there will definitely be a lot of media cynicism, after all, people don't know about SM's future plans.

Of course, this situation has something to do with Lee Hyun Yin's mixed reputation. For various inexplicable reasons, there are not a few people and media who hate Lee Hyun Yin, and then start to hate SM.

Just when Li Xianyin was lamenting that he was not likable with him, he suddenly found that there was another topic related to himself on the hot search list.
