Kidnap a superstar for a romance

Chapter 210 Day 206 of Being the Boss

It has been a whole year since Zheng Nico and Jiang Zhiyin joined FYH. Since their last return to their new group C·F Lengyan, not only has their career not been affected by their withdrawal from the previous group, but it has entered a new rising period.

As the most experienced Korean artists in FYH, Heo Yisong positions Jung Nicole and Kang Ji-eum differently from other artists in the company. Since the last comeback was successful, Heo Yisong plans to start a new plan - to expand into overseas markets.

Currently, FYH's artist department only has five departments: singer department, actor department, dance department, training department and production department. The dance department, training department and production department are all behind the scenes, and only the singer and actor departments belong to the real artists.

Apart from Heo Yi-sung, the singers include a five-member boy band Blue Whale, a two-member girl band C.F. Cold Flame, and a solo singer Song Eun-young who debuted at the end of last year. The actors include only Jang Jin-yi, Shin Min-won, and Kim Tae-ri who signed on earlier this year.

For a newly established company, having so many artists is already pretty good. This is indeed the case, especially since all the artists that FYH has debuted so far have basically done well, and there are more than one big hit.

The company's top pillar is of course Heo Yi-sung himself, and then there are the two groups. Blue Whale has become very popular this year and has successfully become one of the top Korean boy groups. It is no longer the unknown little group a year ago.

But Blue Whale has only established its foothold in South Korea. Except for some individual members who have overseas resources, the overseas influence of the entire group is not high.

But the other pillar of the company is different.

Although C.F. Lengyan only has two members, they have debuted for many years, and their former group is still a group that ranks high in the ranking of girl groups in this era of K-POP competition. Therefore, both this newly formed group and their individuals have a certain influence in Korea and overseas, especially in Japan, the first stop for overseas resources in the Korean entertainment industry.

Therefore, Heo Yisong decided to give the first baton of FYH's overseas market development to Zheng Nico and Jiang Zhiyin, who already have a certain overseas influence.

However, this time they will not be carrying out activities as a group. Heo Yisong plans to let Zheng Nico and Jiang Zhiyin start their own schedules, and the two people's solo forms are also different.

Zheng Nicole is very talented in music, and she will still be performing as a singer in her Japan trip this time. Jiang Zhiyin and Xu Yisong decided to develop her talent in acting. It just so happened that Xu Yisong had submitted several scripts in Japan before, so it was a good opportunity to use the power of capital to get her people in.

Last year, Heo Yisong had let Kang Ji-eun try to play a supporting role in a TV series, which received a good response in Japan, proving that Kang Ji-eun does have a talent for acting.

This year, Japan sent over another script. It is a science fiction comedy adapted from a novel. He still plays a supporting role, but the other actors who have been confirmed are all well-known Japanese actors. Xu Yisong plans to let Jiang Zhiyin continue to try this time.

After deciding on the general direction, Heo Yisong called Zheng Nico, Jiang Zhiyin and their agents to the office for a meeting.

She handed two different plans to the two people respectively, and also decided the content of their schedules for this year. However, before the plan was implemented, Xu Yisong would still consult the artist's wishes, "Please take a good look at these two plans. If you have any questions, raise them now. Once they are released, they cannot be modified."

Years of life as trainees and artists have made them accustomed to obeying the company's arrangements. The relaxed and forgiving atmosphere in FYH now is already a very good treatment. In addition, each of the company's plans is carefully considered and decided to be in line with their group or personal development. Zheng Nicole and Jiang Zhiyin trust Heo Yisong's decisions very much, so they naturally have no objection to this plan.

It is naturally a good thing if the artist has no objection to the itinerary and can cooperate with the company's arrangements. This can make subsequent schedules smoother and allow the artist himself to maintain a good business state.

After asking both of them and they both agreed, Xu Yisong handed the relevant information and contract to their agent Zhang Lina.

Because both of them need to follow their own schedules this year, Zhang Lina cannot be the only agent, so they need to be assigned an executive agent to follow them, and new arrangements need to be made for assistants.

But just leave this to the logistics department.

The main thing now is to make preliminary arrangements for the two people's solo itinerary.

First, it was Jiang Zhiyin. In addition to the project, Xu Yisong also gave her a script. Jiang Zhiyin did not need to audition for the TV series she participated in this time. It was a role that the company directly got. But precisely because there was no need for an audition, the requirements for Jiang Zhiyin were higher, because if she did not perform well, it would not only affect her own evaluation but also the reputation of the company.

"There is still some time before the shooting starts. During this time, Zhiyin, you should read the script carefully. At the same time, I have arranged a separate acting class for you. The class will start today and last until the shooting starts." Xu Yisong handed the script together with a class schedule to Jiang Zhiyin.

The acting classes are the same as those for acting trainees, except that Kang Ji-eun’s classes are one-on-one and the content is closer to a crash course version, after all, there is not enough time.

Jiang Zhiyin had taken this kind of acting class last year, but when she saw this crowded schedule again, she still couldn't help but cry in her heart.

It was really too difficult for her to get up early.

However, she also knew the value of this acting class, and there was a script this time, which was equivalent to an open-book exam with the answers directly provided.

Jiang Zhiyin has become interested in acting since her last performance. Now the company has made such an arrangement. It is rare for Jiang Zhiyin to rekindle the fighting spirit to prepare for the college entrance examination after so many years of graduation.

She nodded to Xu Yisong and said, "Dear President, I promise to complete the task!"

Xu Yisong smiled as he watched her perform and tapped the table: "Okay, let's wait and see how you perform. If you fail, I'll deduct your salary."

After talking about Jiang Zhiyin, the next step is to make arrangements for Zheng Nico.

Unlike Jiang Zhiyin, Xu Yisong is more confident in Zheng Nicole, who is an all-around ace, and her arrangements for Zheng Nicole are different from those for Jiang Zhiyin. She does not plan to let Zheng Nicole start activities in Japan directly like Jiang Zhiyin, but wants her to release an album as a solo artist first.

Of course, considering all aspects, Xu Yisong positioned the album as a mini album. Compared with a regular album, a mini album will include fewer songs, usually only 3-6 songs, but the quality will also be more refined. A mini album will pay more attention to the quality of the singles and the unity of the musical concept. At the same time, because of the small number of songs, it can better highlight the main songs and better and more accurately satisfy the tastes of fans.
