Chapter 396 What? Huang Xu Oppa wants to help you.
"I'm sorry, Hola, Oppa may have to break his promise this time and can't take you out to play."

After returning to the room, Huang Xu looked at Goo Hara apologetically.

"We need to buy plane tickets back to Seoul now."

"Oppa, what happened? Is it serious?"

Goo Hara looked at Huang Xu with concern, not caring at all that she had to go back to Seoul immediately and her vacation would be ruined.

Huang Xu looked at Goo Hara's concerned eyes and gently rubbed her hair to comfort her.

"Don't worry, it's still about your Hyomin-unnie's variety show."

"They checked all night yesterday and found that the problem was not caused in the past two days, but had already appeared in the Magic City, that is, ten days ago."

"Ah, why is it so serious?"

Hearing Huang Xu's words, Goo Hara's doll-like delicate face wrinkled immediately.

Although she is just an idol, after so many years of hard work, she is no stranger to variety shows.

In addition to what she had seen when she watched Huang Xu making the plan, she could now imagine how much of a headache Huang Xu must be having right now.

Huang Xu also shook his head in distress and said helplessly.

“It’s that serious.”

"I originally thought that the problem was only with the materials from the past two or three days, but it wouldn't be a big deal."

"I just need to take a few days off to adjust my condition and then record again."

"I didn't expect that there would be problems on the previous trip to the Magic City. This is a bit of a headache."

According to Huang Xu's original plan, the cities where Tara and her friends will record the variety show are all relatively well-known or distinctive cities in China.

For example, mountain cities, such as Guangzhou.

As one of the most famous cities in China, Shanghai is naturally the top priority in Huang Xu's plan.

As a result, problems arose here, so Huang Xu decided to take a vacation and let Tara and the others rest.

During this period of time, he had to think about how to remedy the situation where the materials in Magic City could not be used.

Goo Hara naturally knew the seriousness of the matter, so without saying a word, she started packing her luggage and prepared to return to Korea with Huang Xu.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Huang Xu and Goo Hara returned to Seoul first, one step ahead of the program crew.

After sending Goo Hara to the apartment and apologizing to her again, Huang Xu drove out directly.

He now wants to meet Kim Tae-woo in advance to discuss with him how to deal with the program crew's affairs and some remedial measures.

As a veteran who has been in the entertainment industry for more than 20 years, he should be able to give Huang Xu some advice.

At least he will be more experienced than a rookie in the workplace like Huang Xu.

Sure enough, after the two met and listened to Huang Xu's story, Jin Taiyu thought for a while, and he first asked Huang Xu with a heavy face.

"Mr. Huang, what do you think about this matter now?"

"Should we expel them directly, or give them a chance to mend their ways?"

"Give them another chance!"

In fact, this morning, when I heard them say that there were problems with the footage shot in Shanghai, I wanted to fire all of them.

However, thinking of the difficulties encountered in recruiting personnel before, Huang Xu finally decided to give them a chance.

After all, these people have gradually understood my intentions and ideas. If I were to train them again, it would take too much time and energy.

Especially Lin Yongzhe, as the program's camera director, he has now basically fully understood and learned Huang Xu's three tricks of filters, close-ups and aerial photography.

The pictures taken can basically meet Huang Xu's requirements, and sometimes they are even innovative and shoot some pictures that even Huang Xu feels amazed.

If he left, it would be a loss for Huang Xu and the program team.

After asking Huang Xu about his thoughts, Kim Tae-woo slowly spoke.

"Since Mr. Huang has decided not to hold them accountable and is willing to give them a chance, then things will be easy."

"Then when they come back tomorrow, I..."

"Okay, that's the only way."

"Then I'll leave this matter to you."

Listening to Kim Tae-woo's measures, no one offered any opinions.

Just now, Kim Tae-woo talked a lot about a bunch of measures and methods. In fact, to put it simply, when the program crew comes back tomorrow, they will give them a warning to make them realize their mistakes.

Then put a crime on their heads to make them afraid and terrified.

In the end, they were asked to make amends for their crimes and were more attentive and hardworking during the subsequent filming process.

To put it bluntly, these things are actually some tricks commonly used in the workplace.

Although it is simple and cliché, it also proves the effectiveness of this method.

So Huang Xu directly handed the matter over to Kim Tae-woo to deal with, and then told him about another matter.

"In addition, you can hire another person to follow the production team every day to supervise their work."

"Although after what happened this time, they will definitely not dare to be negligent again, but we should still add one more person."

"Yes, I understand. I will arrange it as soon as possible. Next time we set off, I will go with them."

Kim Tae-woo nodded and immediately made a promise to Huang Xu.

But then he looked at Huang Xu carefully and began to report another matter.

"Mr. Huang, the editors and post-production staff you asked me to recruit have already had five or six people on the job. When would it be convenient for you to go over and see them?"

"Not bad, you are very fast!"

Huang Xu looked at Jin Taiyu with unconcealable satisfaction in his eyes.

You have to know that from the time he started assigning the task until now, it has been less than ten days.

Being able to recruit five or six people so quickly is already very fast.

Although the entertainment industry in Seoul is very developed and there are many people working in this field, it is still only 2013 after all.

Those who work in the field of video editing and production are still a minority group, unlike in later generations, when various self-media are extremely developed and practitioners are everywhere.

It's quite good that he was able to recruit so many people in such a short time.

Especially since they are just a small agency, not a TV station or a large media company.

However, Kim Tae-woo seemed a little cautious in the face of Huang Xu's praise.

"It's mainly because of your good guidance, and the level of these people still needs you to test it yourself."

"See if you have time to go to the company to give them some guidance and see if their level can meet your requirements."

"If that doesn't work, I have some alternatives for you to choose from."

As this was the first time he was unsure after being recruited by Huang Xu, he felt a little guilty, fearing that the people he recruited would not meet Huang Xu's requirements.

In fact, a few days ago, when Huang Xu had not yet left Seoul, these people had already started working.

However, he did not dare to report to Huang Xu at that time. Instead, he asked them to familiarize themselves with the work and make something for him to see.

After all, he was the one who had listened to Huang Xu's explanations for a long time, and he had a certain understanding of Huang Xu's requirements.

Knowing that Huang Xu had high requirements for these people, he thought about taking a look first. If it worked, he would report to Huang Xu. If not, he would recruit people himself. And most importantly, in addition to these people, he also prepared some alternatives.

Huang Xu couldn't help laughing when he saw Kim Tae Woo's appearance.

He didn't expect that just because he criticized Kim Tae-woo earlier, Kim Tae-woo would be so cautious at the end of the interview.

However, compared with the last time, Huang Xu no longer has any hope of directly recruiting mature personnel who meet his requirements.

It is impossible for him to use the perspective of future generations to demand current people.

And even if there is someone who can reach this level now, their company cannot recruit him.

So he comforted Kim Tae-woo.

"It's okay, as long as you can use the software proficiently and follow instructions."

"Originally I was thinking of being lazy or something, but now it seems there is no hope."

After a distressed complaint, the matter was over and Huang Xu began to ask about other matters in the company.

For example, there are issues regarding the production of Tara's album, and some situations involving EXID and others who signed contracts earlier, in the past few days.

Just when Huang Xu and Kim Tae-woo met to discuss various company matters, Goo Hara, who was left in the apartment by Huang Xu, also drove away from the apartment after contacting a contact.

Along the way, she looked at the coffee shops not far away on both sides of the road, her eyes a little complicated.

As she looked at these shops that she had become accustomed to, she couldn't help but think of what Huang Xu had told her yesterday.

“Why didn’t I realize before that there are so many coffee shops in Seoul?”

“Could it be that this is the difference in perspective between merchants and consumers?”

After Huang Xu’s explanation yesterday morning, she gained a preliminary understanding of the market, business, and especially these coffee shops.

When she looked at these coffee shops that were very common in everyday life, she had a completely different perception of them.

But after watching for a while, I couldn't help feeling a little worried.

"The market is full of coffee shops now. Is there a market for milk tea shops here?"

"There should be some."

"After all, those milk teas do taste good, and some people should like them."

"Besides, Oppa helped me choose this, so it must be correct."

After comforting herself with a few words, Goo Hara parked the car in front of a coffee shop she used to visit often.

After getting off the bus, she did not go in to buy coffee as she did before, but stood on the side of the road and observed.

Look at the store’s sign, the surrounding business district, and the people coming in and out of the coffee shop.

These are things that she had never noticed before, but after Huang Xu's explanation yesterday, she began to understand a little bit.

"Well, the shop sign is very eye-catching and has a sense of design."

“Also, the aroma of coffee here is very strong, and you can smell it from a long distance.”

"There are also many office buildings around here. Looking at the customers inside, they are all white-collar workers working nearby. The business district is good."

"Then."

After observing for two or three minutes, Goo Hara analyzed the store according to Huang Xu's explanation yesterday.

Then he showed an expression of sudden enlightenment.

"I was wondering why the business here is so good, it turns out there are so many details involved!"

"Sure enough, success always has a reason!"

After feeling that she had mastered some of the tricks, Goo Hara walked into the store with a smile.

"Welcome~~"

As soon as she entered the door, Goo Hara heard a warm welcome, which also gave her a new understanding.

“Well, enthusiastic service is also a very important part.”

After responding with a smile, Goo Hara walked to the counter and skillfully ordered ten cups of iced American coffee to take away, then looked around at the surrounding decoration.

Looking at the furniture in the store, the various promotional posters, and the product displays above her head, Goo Hara's brain started working frantically.

“As for the decoration, it is modern, clean and tidy, and very comfortable.”

“And the configuration of these products”

"."

“Ah, it feels like there are so many things I need to pay attention to!”

Goo Hara, who has become somewhat obsessed, looks at everything around her and wants to think about the deeper meaning of these things.

But she was just a newbie. She just followed Huang Xu for a while and listened to his explanation yesterday.

So after thinking about it for a while, she gave up in annoyance.

"Why is it so troublesome?"

"I feel like it's easy when Oppa talks about this, right?"

Goo Hara shook her head in distress, and then remembered the promise she made to Huang Xu that she would leave everything to him.

"Hehe, luckily I have Oppa to help me out."

"Then everything is up to you!"

Thinking of this, her little face, which had been wrinkled just now, began to smile again.

After the experience just now, her original idea of ​​learning on her own and helping Huang Xu share some of the burden was directly shattered.

Let Huang Xu deal with such a complicated matter.

Goo Hara then drove on the road and soon arrived at a shopping mall.

At this time, on the performance stage built in the atrium of the shopping mall, the members of Fx were passionately performing their hit song "Rum Pum Pum Pum (First Wisdom Teeth)" on the stage.

As a song that directly topped the charts as soon as it was released a few days ago, the audience under the stage also gave a warm response.

After the performance, the few people who had finally escaped from the fans saw Goo Hara not far ahead before they took two steps.

"Hola, you're here!"

After seeing her friend, Choi Jin-ri simply abandoned her teammates and ran towards Goo Hara.

Even though Goo Hara had coffee in both hands, she still gave a warm hug.

Come to think of it, she hasn't met Goo Hara for a long time.

She was preparing for a new album, while Goo Hara was going to Japan for a tour, and since she finally had some time to rest, she was hanging around Huang Xu every day.

This made Choi Jin-ri feel abandoned and lost.

But then he looked at Goo Hara and asked.

"Why did you bear to come here this time?"

"Didn't you say you wanted to accompany Oppa to China?"
