Chapter 488 meet again
Lee Ji-eun is in a bad mood now.
The seven-year contract is about to expire by the end of the year, but the company has not negotiated with itself for a long time due to changes in the upper level.
After seven years of cooperation with Loen, Lee Ji-eun felt that he was quite happy.
The company gave her enough resources and she also brought enough profit returns to the company... This is also the reason why Lee Ji-eun is still willing to calm down and has not contacted the outside company.
But... the last time the representative director of the KKM company invited him to have a meal, and things took a turn for the worse.
Although the company's upper-level directors have not talked to me yet, their agents have already revealed the truth to me. It seems that I heard that KKM does not have a strong intention to renew my contract with me.
This is... Lee Ji-eun is a little angry.
Please, she, iu, Lee Ji-eun, a famous solo female singer, part-time outstanding actress, and a popular artist with all-round development... No matter which company you go to, you can get a very generous signing fee, and you can get the attention of other companies and give resources to you, right?!
It’s not that I have to hang myself on the tree Loen.
The popular little iu almost turned against him and simply refused to renew his contract.
However, the agent still dissuaded the little iu who was in a hurry.
The current situation is actually not very good for iu.
It is true that with IU's ability and money-making effect, you can get attention and resource tilt in any company... But can you really give her almost all resources like Loen?!
Another thing... iu's current personal situation is not very good.
Last month, IU was discovered about a relationship, and he had no choice but to go public.
The man looks pretty good and is indeed very talented, but... iu always takes the idol route, not the pure singer route, and this incident has a great impact on fans.
It’s not that there is no lesson in the past. The last time the iu and the Lan family was not able to make it public in the end. Isn’t it because the fans strongly oppose it!
Open love will not have a fatal impact on the current iu, but it will still have some impact.
If you go to an outside company to negotiate a contract, the contract fee and treatment will not necessarily be more important than if you stay in Loen.
iu has been worried about this for several days, thought about it for a long time before he made a decision, and he remained silent for the time being, and then he saw Loen's reaction.
In fact, it didn't take a few days to wait, and Loen has not yet given a clear attitude, but the representative director of KKM invited him to have dinner together again.
Well...this is probably the reaction from KKM.
Although he didn't understand the leadership game above, Lee Ji-eun thought that the representative director would definitely show up with him for the second time.
And it is highly likely that it will not be bad news.
If KKM insists on not renewing the contract with him, there is no need for any representative director to come forward. Anyway, I have been tearing him down. Just give me a notice of not renewing the contract.
So... Well, Lee Ji-en went to the beauty salon, dressed up carefully, and went to this appointment.
I didn’t leave a good impression on the representative director last time, and this time I had to make up for it no matter what.
But Lee Ji-eun never figured out a problem - wasn't it negotiated a contract renewal? Why didn't this director come alone, but brought two female companions?!
If these two female companions were the secretary who represented the director, Xiao iu could still understand... No matter what the secretary is in charge, Xiao iu could understand.
But what do you want to do when you bring two colleagues in the entertainment industry?!
Or...well, now Lee Ji-eun seriously doubts the significance of Lee Hwan-young treating him to this meal.
But Li Huanrong has no choice.
The off-site request for help caused an accident. The two childhood sweethearts of his family refused to give in and they all accompanied Li Huanrong to discuss with iu.
Actually, I don’t understand what these two are fighting for, but Li Huanrong really feels...it doesn’t seem to be necessary.
But it was precisely because Li Huanrong understood what Xiao Chulong and Xiao Zhuxian were fighting for that, he could only bring both of them. If he only brought one person, it seemed that he could not explain it to the other person.
So, four people just sat awkwardly at the same dining table and ate.
Not to mention that Lee Ji-eun felt awkward, in fact, Lee Huanrong and the other three felt awkward, and their eyes were extremely awkward when they looked at each other.
Li Huanrong felt that it was a bit sorry for his identity as a director when he brought two friends to be a staff officer in this kind of thing, and was also worried that it would leave iU with the impression that he was unreliable and did not have the majesty of the superiors.
Xiao Zhuxian and Xiao Chulong looked at the carefully dressed iu at this moment, looked at each other's fear in their eyes... This outlined outfit and such exquisite makeup, are you sure you are here to discuss contract renewal?!
Lee Ji-eun is really curious about what these two famous colleagues in the circle have to do with this representative director, and whether they are talking about the contract extension with me today, or... wanting to become a member of the other party?!
Hey, this is not good, so I don’t want to be the life secretary of the chaebol II……
Xiao iu thought it wrong without hesitation, and the reason for his awkward eyes was also because of this... After all, the representative director opposite was indeed a chaebol. Although he was not an old chaebol, for iu, the difference between an old chaebol and an emerging chaebol is not very meaningful.
The four of them felt uncomfortable looking at each other, but they still had to talk about things.
Li Huanrong, the only one among the four who was not too straited, spoke actively.
"iuxi, sorry, a few days ago, I seemed to have misunderstood what you mean... Well, I apologize to you here!" Li Huanrong raised the wine glass on the dining table and said to iu.
Because he broke the silence, Lee Ji-eun also pulled out of his brain state. IU, who entered the business model, smiled and picked up the wine glass and said to Lee Huanrong, "It means nin is too polite... Just call me Ji-eun!"
It’s a routine, a cliché, a commercial wording... It’s not a little beauty in the iceberg, she will roll her eyes to you when she calls out “Little Crystal”.
Li Huanrong also breathed a sigh of relief.
Lee Huanrong is really not good at this kind of socializing with people, especially with strangers. If Lee Ji-eun insists on keeping up with the last incident, Lee Huanrong really doesn't know how to continue to talk about it.
Now... I won't talk about the matter for the time being, let's heat up the atmosphere first.
At this time, the two off-field aids brought by Li Huanrong have to be used.
No matter how they have ulterior motives and their thinking deviates from Mars, Xu Zhuxian and Xiao Chulong still know what their role is today.
Put the worries aside first, follow the agreed routines, and stir up the atmosphere first.
After all, I was a colleague of iu. Even though he had no chance to say hello to each other before, he always knew each other and had enough common language. As he chatted, the atmosphere of the meal gradually improved.
Xiao Chulong started with Endi, and Xiao Zhuxian was even a senior. She had many common topics to talk about. The three beauties were talking and laughing, and they were quite speculative.
Seeing that the atmosphere was getting better and better, Li Huanrong seized the opportunity and interrupted and said to IU, "Actually, today I have something to talk to Ji-eun for dinner... Well, about your renewal of your contract with Loen."
That's right, the three beauties turned to look at Li Huanrong, with a look of surprise.
I ask you, can you not make any preparations without turning directly to the topic? Why are we still making a stir-frying atmosphere?
——This is a resentment from Xiaozhuxian and Xiaochulong.
For renewal, are you sure you want to talk to me in front of two outsiders, or just start talking so bluntly?!
——This is the surprise from Lee Ji-eun.
Li Huanrong blinked his eyes and looked at the three stunned beauties innocently... Did he say the wrong thing?! Or, now isn't the time to say this?!
But... I said it all...what should I do?!
It was always Xu Zhuxian and Xiao Chulong who knew their friends better, so they had no choice but to help smooth things out.
"Sorry, senior... This guy Huanrong is like this, he is not very good at speaking..." Xiao Chulong glared at Li Huanrong with anger, and then said to Lee Ji-eun with a smile.
"That's right, this guy is not only unable to speak, but even has always been very biased in his mind. Otherwise, last time he wouldn't have regarded your tentative words as if you didn't want to renew your contract..." Xu Zhuxian started to complain directly.
Lee Ji-eun blinked his eyes and began to reexamine in his heart. The relationship between the threesomes on the other side... It seems that it really doesn't look like the relationship between the financial backer and the lover, right?!
How could I say that the money owner is like that? The money owner looks like "they are right"...
"But..." Lee Ji-eun hesitated for a moment, glanced at his two colleagues, looked at Lee Huanrong again, and said carefully, "Representative nin, you are sure you want to talk now...or, we will meet at the company tomorrow, so we can talk more specifically..."
Talk about renewal, it involves commercial secrets... Is it really good in front of outsiders?!
Of course, the three people on the other side also heard what Lee Ji-eun meant.
Xiao Chulong and Xiao Zhuxian stopped talking and sat with a smile.
Li Huanrong explained, "Actually, I just want to hear your true thoughts, so I asked you to have a meal... To be honest, I really don't know the words and methods I said when I renewed my contract. I was afraid that I would misunderstand it again, so I asked Zhuxian and Chulong to come and analyze it for me... Well, they are not considered outsiders, they are all my friends and trustworthy friends!"
......So, I'm really thinking too much?!
Lee Ji-eun was a little guilty, but at the same time, she also thought of the rumors about these three people in the circle.
To be honest, that rumor really sounds unreliable. Nowadays, can there still be a real childhood sweetheart relationship between IDOL and the chaebol? Isn’t that all excuses to fool fans?!
But now, looking at the way these three people get along... the simplest rumor in the circle is actually true?!
These three people are really just good friends?!
To be honest, I still don’t believe it... But whether you believe it or not is not the most important thing for Lee Ji-eun. The most important thing is that you need to consider what the representative director said, what is the hidden meaning?!
How could the representative director discuss the contract renewal with you? There are two staff members around you... Isn't this kind of thing supposed to be tested by each other and finally find a compromise point to reach a compromise?!
How can you expose your own methods as soon as you come up?!
Lee Ji-eun was a little hesitant, not knowing whether he should tell his truest thoughts.
And Xiao Zhuxian, obviously saw Lee Ji-eun's hesitation and said with a smile, "iuxi, maybe it's not good to say that..."
"Uh... Just call me Ji-eun..." Lee Ji-eun quickly said to Seo Joo-hyun.
When I was young, I really debuted earlier than IU, and my status in the circle is unique, so IU doesn’t want to be too unfamiliar with the other party.
Xu Zhuxian didn't care and continued, "I have always experienced a contract renewal, so I understand your mood very well. If I had changed to me, I would not say the most true thoughts in my heart before reaching a final agreement with S.m, and it would be useless to say them out. After all, what we think is not very meaningful. The specific one depends on the company's reaction, and we gradually adjust our inner conditions..."
Lee Ji-eun nodded slightly. What he said was simply right.
This is what it is like to renew a contract.
"... But you really don't have this need to be with this guy!" Xu Zhuxian said breathlessly, "This guy is not very scheming, and doesn't like this way of temptation. He really doesn't have the brain. He asked you for dinner today, but he actually doesn't want to bother you too much about this matter... So, if you have any conditions, just ask directly. If this guy can agree, he will tell you directly. If he can't agree, he will not hide it."
Li Huanrong sounded so wronged... Am I so careless?!
What makes Li Huanrong even more aggrieved is that Xiao Zhuxian is not the only one who thinks this way.
"Senior, Zhuxian and I came together. In addition to being a staff officer for Huanrong, it is actually good for you. Although Huanrong is a representative director of KKM, in the entertainment industry, if he is slaughtered, he is a fan, and he is not a fan of yours. If he doesn't explain some of the contract renewal conditions clearly to him, he will definitely be able to make up for something strange... Otherwise, he wouldn't have regarded the test of his senior as a signal of refusing to renew his contract last time!"
......Why did Xiao Chulong say that...Li Huanrong felt even more wronged.
Well, now Lee Ji-eun has believed that these three people are just good friends.
I really can't say this complaint if I'm not a friend.
Chapter completed!
