My Entertainment Circle

Requiring capital to enter the market is a very frustrating thing for many companies and enterprises, because "capital" only looks at interest groups, and the development of enterprises must rely on capital banknotes. I won’t explain much about the issues of enterprises and capital here..

The revenue rate of Han Seungho's agency was quite good last year. He even admitted on the show that the actual profit exceeded that of 'JYP', one of the three giants of the agency!

It was this market report that gave Han Shenghao his ambition and his desire to raise funds to continue expanding the brokerage company itself. Not only do I want to replace the three major traditional agencies in the ‘idol world’, but I also want to join the ‘big four’!

If the company's brand wants to occupy a certain market share, then it will definitely need more money to invite more celebrities to enhance the company's brand value.

Although after going public this year, I made a lot of money from the stock market and sold a certain amount of equity, the larger the brokerage company, the higher the corresponding cost investment will be. As the company's personnel increase, resources, hardware, and other supporting facilities must keep up. Also, they have invested some money in film and television works this year, so the money they got back from the stock market cannot afford to be burned!

If you have no money and want to grow the company, you can only find financing. It happened that after meeting Zhang Pingan last time, he suddenly mentioned investment, and Han Shenghao remembered it in his heart. Who would have thought that after today’s meeting, Zhang Ping’an would cut straight to the point and talk about ‘cutting leeks’! It can be said that they have joined forces to 'defraud' the public of their money, but even if he doesn't agree to Zhang Ping'an today, a different person will come in tomorrow and he will still be thinking about how to 'squeeze the wool'.

Zhang Pingan said: "Listen to me, this matter is good for you, and of course it is good for me. What I want is not to hold shares in your company, but when I invest in your company Make a fortune, and then I'll quit. And what your company is after is its reputation. It means I use money to increase your reputation and increase the value of your company. This is a good thing for you. .”

When talking about the metaphor, Zhang Ping'an turned to look at Xuexuan beside him: "I can help you reach the current level of Cao'e and Hani in the market. To be precise... it should surpass them. Because I can make You earn more than them, are you willing? I can fully enhance your 'personal brand value', but I must also get something from you. Is this fair?"

After saying this, Zhang Ping'an turned to look at Han Shenghao again and started speaking without waiting for Seolhyun's response, as if these words were really just a metaphor said casually on the spot. But Seolhyun frowned deeply and thought about what Zhang Pingan said. Can he make his personal brand value surpass the two hottest people at the moment? Of course, you have to pay to get something, this is an equal exchange!

Zhang Pingan continued to say to Han Shenghao: "Your ideal is to become one of the four major brokerage companies, or to replace JYP and enter one of the three major companies. But what are the benefits for me? 20 billion won of shares purchased? And one billion per year If you don’t talk about the issue of cashing out, then this money... I will make too much money.

I might as well invest in variety shows or movies myself. Those are final decisions. If I make a profit, I will make a lot of money. I can also afford a loss. Moreover, the core of the agency's products is artists, and artists have contract terms. If they leave, the company will have no value. In the end, you at least kept a piece of land in Cheongdamdong because it was private to you, but what about me? If the company goes bankrupt, my 20 billion will be wasted. "

Listening to Zhang Ping'an talking about the brokerage company as if it were a bubble, Han Shenghao immediately retorted: "Didn't you invest in the brokerage company yourself?"

"Yes, I have a management company. My company is fully owned. I can afford to lose no matter how much I lose. Moreover, the contract I give my children is the best contract on the Korean market, and I never exploit them. You can ask Fang Si Hyuk, what are my requirements for the agency and my children? To me, it doesn’t matter if they don’t make money if I support them for three to five years. After all, my company only has one group of artists, and it only takes one year. If I release two albums for them, even if I lose money, how much will I lose?"

Zhang Ping'an continued: "If I give three billion to the children, can a group of artists lose all the money? You can also ask Bang Si Hyuk, what is the standard of food expenses for a year if I give it to BTS and Mommu?" ! I don’t care whether I want to play a song or not. Even if there is no activity or a song, they can eat whatever they want in the dormitory. How many bosses like me are there in the market? Once you become famous, just don’t forget how good our company is. People’s hearts are strong, so I never think it will be difficult for them to renew their contract after they become famous. Moreover, I have never thought about becoming one of the top three agencies!”

What Zhang Ping'an said earlier about how good the contract was made Jin Xuexuan who was sitting next to her was dumbfounded, because such treatment was something that their company would never dare to think of. If they hadn't won one, they would even be crowded together in the dormitory. . Finally, this time one of them got the conditions for them to change dormitories. As for the meal offer of 100 million won a year, that was the level of Girls' Generation.

And the last sentence left Han Shenghao speechless. Zhang Ping'an said that he didn't want to become one of the three major brokerage companies? Looking back, it seems that their company is indeed developing in this way. At this time, BTS is not very popular in South Korea, but B.H Agency still lets everyone know about it. That's because the production department led by Zhang Pingan is the company's current profit maker!

Han Shenghao thought he understood Zhang Pingan. He thought that the development of Zhang Pingan's entertainment career was not focused on artists. Instead, it invests in production companies, just like ‘ShowBox’ and ‘CJ’, the two major film and television investment producers on the market.

No wonder Zhang Pingan immediately raised the issue of cashing out after discussing investment.

Han Shenghao asked curiously: "How do you plan to increase my company's market value by 50% in half a year?"

"This is a secret. We must talk about it after signing the contract." After saying this, Zhang Ping'an picked up a 'crystal shrimp dumpling' that had just been served and put it into his mouth. He ate the shrimp dumpling and waited. Han Shenghao’s answer.

After eating a shrimp dumpling, he filled himself up with a glass of wine and drank it. When he put down the glass and poured the wine, he looked at the silent Jin Xuexuan. Jin Xuexuan also met Zhang Ping'an's eyes at this time, and then she lowered her head and looked at her bowls and chopsticks.

Because Zhang Pingan’s eyes seemed to be asking her, ‘Do you want to surpass Cao’e and Hani? ’

But Xuexuan knew that Zhang Pingan's purpose in helping her was not to make her make money for him, because her personal brand value had increased, which was also to make money for the company and herself.

Even if Han Shenghao agreed to Zhang Pingan, he was only a shareholder holding about 11%, and most of the money he earned still went to the company account and her personal pocket. He can't look down on her billions of dividends every year, so can he look down on her personal income? Obviously the way Zhang Pingan looked at her was not about money, so what else could be exchanged?

The implication... is clear and clear. Anyone who joins this circle is not stupid.

Zhang Pingan’s current girlfriend is Jessica from Girls’ Generation, and even if her personal value increases, she can’t possibly replace Jessica, right? The remaining positions are...

Zhang Ping'an saw Xuexuan's avoidant eyes, and he knew that she already understood his intentions.

Han Shenghao hesitated and frowned. First of all, he must want to raise funds. Moreover, he was also bewitched by Zhang Pingan, saying that "the company's market value increased by 50%" meant that the value of the stocks he held also increased. But he definitely can't cash out and leave. After all, FNC is the result of his hard work.

What he is struggling with now is the cashing out of Zhang Ping'an's shares! When he invested in FNC this time, to put it bluntly, he saw that they were a newly listed company, so he wanted to come in and make a profit before leaving.

Zhang Pingan's suggestion is a good thing for him and the company, but what will be the consequences after the '11%' shares are sold? This was something he couldn't predict, and it was also the root of his struggle.

Han Shenghao then raised his head and looked at Zhang Ping'an and said, "Can you let me think about this for a few days?"

Zhang Ping'an smiled and said: "To be honest, you are only suitable to be the company's artist-level manager and operator. The decision to enter the stock market in order to raise funds is really not suitable for you. I advise you to go back and consult the department responsible for managing the company's assets. ”

Han Shenghao nodded and said: "I will go back to discuss it. By the way, are the words you just said to Seolhyun true? Or are they just used as metaphors? Can you really make Seolhyun surpass Choa and Hani?"

Zhang Ping'an saw Han Shenghao taking the initiative to ask about such a thing. He smiled and said: "Beyond? Well...it depends on how you say it. I said her 'personal brand value'. That is to say, her earning ability will surpass the two of them." People, but they may be about the same in terms of popularity. Just like Bae Suzy and Kim Hyuna. Why does Bae Suzy earn more than Kim Hyuna in a year? "

Han Seungho immediately responded: "Because Bae Suzy has many commercial endorsements."

Zhang Pingan nodded and said: "This is personal brand value. But if you want to talk about popularity, do you think HyunA loses to Suzy? No, right?"

Han Shenghao also looked at it from the perspective of a brokerage company: "Their image positioning is different, right? Bae Suzy's pure positioning is more in line with the manufacturer's preference!"

"Forget it, I really can't explain it to you."

Seeing Zhang Ping'an shaking his head, Han Shenghao could only smile bitterly and said, "Maybe I'm really only suitable for artist management and operations, right? By the way, can you really do that with Seol Hyun?"

"Okay, but...what can I get from it?" After Zhang Pingan said this, he looked at Han Shenghao, and then looked at Xuexuan again. After looking at the two of them, Zhang Ping'an withdrew his gaze, picked up the wine glass with a slight smile, raised his head, and cheers! !

Still the question, what does he get? Because Seolhyun’s personal brand value has increased, it’s not about making money for him!

Han Shenghao suddenly remembered what Zhang Ping'an said back then, 'Sue Hyun, just find a sponsor to push you from behind. ’

Han Shenghao's eyes slowly turned to Seolhyun...
