Chapter 424 From rich man to loser
"President, our company has less than 1 billion on its books." The company's financial director opened the door and came in, opening his mouth to complain to Zheng Hezai.
After Zheng Hezai heard what the financial director said, a trace of confusion flashed across his face, "What's going on?"
"Of course you spent it on other things." The financial director looked equally confused.
JHJ Entertainment has made greater strides in the past six months than ever before, from investment and distribution of movies to the construction of cinema chains, as well as the acquisition of OCN cable channels. All of these require money, not to mention these upfront expenses. In a short period of time,
There is no profit at all, just like the OCN cable channel. Jung Hyuk-jae has made plans not to make a profit for three years, in order to seize the future cake of the cable TV station and compete with Tvn, which has a backend.
The money was put in, but it disappeared in the blink of an eye. The stall was spread out, and it seemed that it was a little too big.
"I'll figure out the money problem, you go ahead and do your work first." Zheng Hezai frowned and waved his hand to indicate that she could leave. The financial director opened the door and walked out, leaving Zheng Hezai alone in the office with a frown.
He frowned and thought about a solution.
At present, Jung Hyuk-jae's JHJ Entertainment and JHJ Film's main income points come from the share of the movie box office. The box office share of the two movies "The Couple" and "Beauty Too Trouble" is coming soon, which will be able to alleviate the current difficulties. JHJ Entertainment's
There is a model agency and a small artist studio. They can make a little profit every month by relying on car shows, walking tours and commercial performances, which is better than nothing. As for the OCN cable channel, it is good if it is not a laggard. There are no good programs that can't attract them.
Audience ratings, advertisers and companies will not choose such a cable TV channel. Although it is currently a small hit with "SNL-Korea", OCN cable channel still needs Jung Hyuk-jae to spend money to achieve results.
.
TV series, variety shows, entertainment, these are the directions that OCN cable channel needs to work on next, and they cannot be careless.
The feeling of being short of money is uncomfortable, Zheng Hyukjae deeply understands this.

When Zheng Hyuk-jae returned home, he was left with an empty living room and a cold kitchen. He was alone at home and no one was home. He called his sister. It turned out that the two of them went to the hospital for a check-up accompanied by their manager and hung up.
During the phone call, Zheng Hyukjae took off his shirt and threw it on the sofa, then sat down on the sofa, feeling that his whole body was sore and he couldn't exert any strength.
Things seem to have come together recently. When he had a rare two-day break, he had to come forward to solve the problem of the OCN cable channel. Tvn is now eyeing OCN. At this time, OCN led by Jung Hyuk-jae
Cable channels cannot take the wrong path. If you fail to catch up at one step, you will fail to catch up at every step.
OCN cable channel has Jung Hyuk-jae in charge of choosing its future direction, and Lee Joon-ik is in charge of program content. In addition to "SNL-Korea," a program that has already received widespread attention in its pilot episode, Lee Joon-ik also
Several writers and directors have finalized the production of a morning drama, entertainment news, and music programs. They are also in the process of intense preparations. After all, the production costs have been spent. If the ratings are not satisfactory, there is no need for Jung Hyuk-jae to come forward as the content.
Li Junyi, the person in charge, could eat up all the staff in the station.
Jung Hyuk Jae wants to develop step by step. The key is to see whether CJ Entertainment and Tvn will give him this opportunity. Although JHJ Entertainment and CJ Entertainment had a honeymoon period before due to movie distribution, but with the choice of JHJ Entertainment
Since getting involved in the film distribution business and preparing for movie theater lines and cable TV channels, JHJ Entertainment and CJ Entertainment have been in opposite positions, and neither one wants the other to benefit.
Tvn is backed by the giant CJ Entertainment, so it is natural that it has a lot of money. However, the OCN cable channel needs to be carefully planned. Zheng Hyuk-jae feels that he has lost more hair in recent times than before.
Just when Zheng Hyuk-jae was lying on the sofa and thinking wildly, Li Junyi called at this moment. Zheng Hyuk-jae saw the caller ID on his mobile phone and thought something had happened in the station. He picked up the phone and listened to the call on the other end.
Explanation: It turned out to be an invitation to go out for dinner.
"President Zheng, do you have time to go out for dinner together?" Li Junyi said on the phone, "We are all from the circle of screenwriters and directors. Let's go out and get to know each other."
There was no one at home, and the kitchen was full of cold pots and stoves. He didn't want to cook yet. Now it seemed like a good choice to go out to eat with Li Junyi. "Okay, I'll go there right now. Where are you now?"
Woolen cloth?"
"Oh, we are at an izakaya here in Yeouido. Come over."
Half an hour later, Zheng Hyukzai arrived at the izakaya Li Junyi mentioned. Under the guidance of the waiter, he came to a private room. When he pushed the door in, Zheng Hyukzai saw the sponsor of today's table, Li Junyi, at a glance.
Some of the screenwriters and directors sitting here are familiar to him, some look familiar, and some he doesn’t know. As Lee Jun-ik, who has been immersed in the director circle for many years, he has a lot of connections. If it weren’t for this reason, Jung Hyuk-jae wouldn’t
What they want to do by giving him the title of content responsible for the OCN cable channel is to use his connections to attract more effective people to his channel. There are so many screenwriters and directors, some of whom have contracts with the three major wireless TV stations.
, even if there is no way to help Jung Hyuk-jae now, it is not too late to build a good relationship now. After the contract is over, he will be attracted to his own TV station. This is a victory.
"Come on, let me introduce to you the person in front of you. I believe everyone is very familiar with it. He is Jung Hyuk Jae xi, the president of JHJ Entertainment."
The moment Zheng Hyukjae opened the door and came in, everyone's eyes fell on Zheng Hyukjai. A pair of eyes seemed to be sizing up the young man in front of him. How could he be so successful in entertainment?
To create such a world in the circle?
"Hello!"
"Hello, Jung Hyuk Jae xi."
"President Zheng, hello, I talked to you at the last cocktail party." Everyone is the same in terms of status, but at the position of the banquet table, it is obvious that Zheng Hyukjae and Li Junyi are the leaders, and Li Junyi is the leader.
A veteran director in the industry, he won the Daejong Award for Best Director for "Huang Shan Fa" and "The King's Man". As a senior, he naturally had to sit in the front.
Jung Hyuk-jae is because of his status as the president of JHJ Entertainment. In South Korea, the development of the entertainment industry has also attracted many people to join this industry. There are countless screenwriters, directors, PDs and related practitioners. There are only a few TV stations. Directors and directors are needed.
There are only so many screenwriters. Too many times, everyone sees familiar faces. As screenwriters and directors, they can only do the dirty work. Because of this, they put the idea on Jung Hyuk-jae's head.
I will be so enthusiastic when I see it or sit there.
"Okay, everyone is here, let's serve food..." Li Junyi on the side took charge.
