283 Quality Control 2

Name:This Time You Are Mine Author:mekane
"So what do you think?"

"The schedule looks fine with me. With Hyacinth's popularity, it will be another topic to talk about." Marketing team replies.

"Releasing behind-the-scenes clips days after the video gives it another boost and promotion for the actual video." They added.

"Those are all positive feedback but I want to know is there any possible flaws on this project?" Yve looks at the quality control team hinting that she's ready for any negative response from them.

"The project plan really looks promising. However, each stream has one flaw – as audience can only see the stars through a screen, uniqueness of the content is its difference against TV shows. But fans get more attracted to shows where they can see their idols." The people in question reply.

"Are you referring to fan meetings?" Yve asks in confirmation.

"Yes, Miss Yve."

"But we can prepare for it, since it will be announced with the time and place. We can make sure that we give ample time difference." Yve answers back.

"It's an effective counter measure but for big companies with artists having big fan bases, you can do random and unexpected shows and expected a thousand to be there before the event and tens of thousands towards the end. Fans who were able to attend the show unexpectedly, who missed the shows and have other circumstances will make noise in their social media accounts knocking to the others of newspapers and TV stations."

"In other words, our stream can be easily defeated with mini, surprise concerts both in audience and media coverage." Yve concludes.

"We're afraid so, Miss Yve." The quality control team leader replies sadly.

"Marketing, what do you think?"

"It certainly makes sense, Miss Yve. But there are other ways to also compete with mini, surprise concerts while supporting our streams."

"What is it?"

"We can contact the moderators of the official fan bases of the artists we are going to feature for that stream to have a full screening for short film and to attend the showcase for the music videos."

"With that a lot of people will watch in big screens and venues but the views of the stream will also be affected."

"That's true, Miss Yve. But at least, these people can create noise after the event through their social media accounts. Their posts can cause interest to those who missed the live stream. Instead of the live view count, our normal views will increase." Quality team leader responds.

"The people who can watch the live showcase can give us an idea on what they expect for our concluding concert. They can market for us and we can learn from them to make our future shows and promotions better than the last one." The marketing added.

"I see the point now. But can we still make it by this weekend?" Yve anxiously asks.

"Miss Yve, it would be better to release it on the premier of the music video and short film." A member of the quality team suggests.

"Why is that?"

"It will give the competitors an idea that they have succeeded and that we're cornered. Furthermore, to avoid media stimulation that we are threatened by their counter projects, we need to make the venues better."

"Okay. So should we inform the fan bases ahead?"

"For now, no. Hyacinth's fans might get angry if she is not given the same treatment. So for now, we will plan the events internally and then give them the go signal once the competitors start to move."

"I understand. So now let's stick to that plan." Yve agrees to the ideas presented to her as they give follow-up information and reasons.

"Keep me updated on the progress of the project." Yve instructs the marketing team.

"Yes, Miss Yve."

"Thank you to the quality control team for coming."

"We're just doing our job, Miss Yve."

"That's it for our meeting today. You can now go back to your respective tasks." Yve ends the meeting and leaves the room first.

The moment Yve reaches her room; she reads the first part of the script printed for her by Sylvan. The story they chose is a detective school story. Each student of the school studies to become a detective while maintaining their façade as an ordinary student. Their detective classes are conducted on weekends while their normal classes are on weekdays. There are times they will be deployed as detectives on the scene.

It's really something new as most of the stories on Television and movies are of romance genre. As Yve goes through the script and starts to read some of the cases the group will solve, she can't help but admire the skills of her writers as well as appreciate the growth of the characters.

"Can't wait to read the entire script." Yve exclaims as she continues to read the content of the script.

Meanwhile, H\u0026E is in chaos once more because of the published articles. Although the articles generalize the entertainment companies planning a surprise for the fans of their artists, it is obvious that they are the target. To make matters worse, the dark aura around their president who's sitting in front of them adds up to their worries.

"So can someone explain how come there are articles like this one day after our meeting?!" Steve's anger confirms that this will be a long meeting for them.

Nobody dares to answer his question because they aren't sure as well as to how it happened.

"I'll be deploying my personal team to investigate on this case. If there is a spy among you, better confess. I'll assure that the punishment is lighter than if I caught you." Steve threatens the people in the room.

Despite the threat, CONFERENCE's spy is not someone who will easily give in. After all, she made sure not to leave any trace pointing to her.

��Since we can't do about the spy in the meantime, let's focus on the plan at hand. So what should we do?"

"We can still proceed as it is. The articles didn't reveal anything about our plan."

"We can also assume that other companies are planning to compete against SkyMu as we speak."

"That is understandable. SkyMu took the limelight suddenly. How strong our project?"

"It's the strongest since we are going to do it with our famous groups."

"Good! Then report to me the latest reports." Steve instructs and the respective representatives do their reporting.

'Is it you, Vince, who gave this unnecessary promotion?'

'SkyMu is only a small company under Stones. Its hold is not even comparable to the other companies?'

'What are you thinking?' Steve wonders as he try to uncover the reasons behind the published articles.
