"Director Yerim, it's pointless complaining around at a time like this. We should think of a way to resolve this problem. Discrediting them right now is useless; we should try to solve our own issues first. It would be better if this doesn't turn into a huge mess," Assistant Lee advised.
"What other solutions do we have here? From how I see it, we might as well announce that the opening ceremony is pushed back and wait until President Jeon gets back," Yerim said carelessly as she played around with her nails.
Before anyone else had the chance to speak, Lisa said, "We can't change the date. President Jeon already announced on TV. that he wouldn't change the date. If we change the date now, everyone will think that he backed out on his words, which would affect his reputation later on."
"Haha... really? Everyone understands that, but what else can we do? Young Madam, since you're so almighty, why don't you come up with another plan?" Yerim antagonized Lisa.
She wanted to take this opportunity to challenge Lisa...
Lisa looked at Yerim once and immediately saw through her. Lisa ignored her and instead looked around and said, "Don't worry everyone, all we need to do right now is come up with a plan."
Then, Lisa looked at Assistant Lee and asked, "Are there any ways that we could re-negotiate with the stars who breached the contract?"
"No, they've all turned off their phones and won't pick up. It's very clear that BigHit planned this all along and played us. They all disappeared at this crucial moment, leaving us with no stars," Assistant Lee said; he was on the brink of collapsing.
"So our problems would go away if we get a famous celebrity to walk the red carpet?" asked Lisa again.
"It's not only that. Stars who appear on our red carpet must have signed a contract with us, or else it would still be very embarrassing if the media expose us..."
It sounded like a difficult task indeed...
"Yes, okay, I got it. I have an idea, could you guys wait for me?" Lisa stood up and walked out of the conference room upon finishing her sentence.
Lisa walked out of the room and held up her cellphone...
She actually did have a candidate in mind, but... the chances of success were extremely small.
Lisa made the call... That's right, it was for Soobin.
His agent, picked up the phone.
"Hello?"
"I want to talk to Soobin."
"He's busy, who are you?"
"I'm Lisa."
"Oh, what do you want?" His agent really didn't like Losa. She was especially upset when Soobin got drunk last night. She even wrote several complaint letters to Director Jung.
"Here's the thing, I wanted to ask if he signed with a new company yet?"
"Does that have anything to do with you? Why do you care about the company he will sign with when you're only supposed to treat him?" His agent sounded very harsh.
"No, I was just wondering. If he hasn't decided yet, then can he consider JC Film and Television?"
"Are you kidding me? JC Movie and Television, that new company? Why should we take the risk and choose a new company? Truth be told, we've already decided to go to BigHit, and President Park's offer is very generous. Not only did he offer Soobin an incredibly well-paid contract, he has also offered plenty of benefits, which JC cannot provide."
