/vt/ - Virtual Youtubers

I fire myself
I'm not dealing with this shit

>>68921027
Fire everybody except Scarle. Announce two new gens.

sex oshi and buy their freedom

pay Selen 500k
other graduated livers 50k

(current nijiEN has to shoulder the debt)

>>68921027
>What do you do?
Absolutely nothing. It'll all blow over eventually.

"Graduate" and save myself from the autistic meltdowns before it gets even worse.

>>68921027
First I change the logo

>>68921027
Torch EN, JP will ignore it anyway.

>>68921027
Absolutely nothing. This is not a fight they can win and so not one a company their size should even be taking. Give it a couple months and it'll all have blown over.

>>68921027
How big is the severance package?

>>68921027

>(you) have been tasked to defend Nijisanji EN's recent actions.
No lmao fuck this you are on your own

Fire the boys fuck the girls live on stream

>>68921634
man, pomu really ditched just in time huh

>>68921027
>Did I ever tell you what the definition of insanity is? Insanity is doing the exact... same fucking thing... over and over again expecting... shit to change...
MR NIJI INTERN, STOP OUTSOURCING YOUR WORK
ANYWAY, IF TWICE DIDN'T GET THE MESSAGE THROUGH
THIRD TIME *MUST* BE THE CHARM
JUST GIVE THE EXAMPLE OF HOW SELEN FELT BULLIED BY RPR OVER BANTER. SHE'S CLEARLY MENHERA. CYBER BULLYING ISN'T REAL, SHE SHOULDN'T JUST CLOSED HER EYES, TURN OFF THE SCREEN, WALKED AWAY. HAHAHAHAHAHAH

>>68921027
I better check if I am paid enough as a lawyer to take this beating for what a shitty client Anycolor is or just quit.
>>68921224
LMAO we're talking tens or hundreds of millions at this point. Like it could actually bankrupt the company.

Fire almost everyone except scarle and anyone else who has no evidence of wrongdoing
SHUT THE FUCK UP and never mention any of this or anyone fired ever again

Fire everyone and rehaul the branch.
put the all blame on EN Management.

try and get pomu back for the rehaul so she turns into a fubuki "if I'm still here then this isn't a black company"

try and poach sana (she doesn't have to stream)

>>68921027
1. crawl on the floor say "we are deeply sorry
2. pay Zaion, Selen and Yugo Asuma back all the money the spent on Niji related projects in the last 6-12 months of there employment
3. get rid of the currant vtubers that are partially to blame for this shit
4. get actual management and not Japanese students that get paid minimal wage and aren't fluent in englesh and don't understand western culture (this is actually real). Talants are in charge and managers are there to support not boss them around
5. offer all talents complete ownership of there YouTube channels, social media etc (the vshojo model)
6. make a actually western based company to get rid of JP autism laws so people can stream whatever the fuck they want

>>68921755
>4. get actual management and not Japanese students that get paid minimal wage and aren't fluent in englesh and don't understand western culture (this is actually real). Talants are in charge and managers are there to support not boss them around
isnt the current rrat about the EN management being the former Niji IN?

>>68921677
>"Hey Pomu want to stay for a few more weeks just to be sure that your MV is done in tim-"
>"No"

>>68921736
fuck off

*I put on my wizard hat and robe*

>>68921027
Is it weird that Im assuming that this is one of nijien's staff/livers legitimately asking /vt/ if there's a way out of this mess?

>>68921027
honestly? the only way back is to apologise for the handling of this case, roll back what they said, promise staff changes in management, promise tougher rules and corrective measures around bullying, and a statement of confidence and trust in their fanbase to wait for them to improve so they can continue bringing fun times to everyone. and then never addressing it again. that is the only way forward to save any face at all. even if they come out with receipts saying Selen/Doki is an actual insane person, they still lose overall in every scenario.

>>68921027
>put out brief statement saying "after an internal review, we have identified key issues with our business model and our endeavoring to correct them. we apologize for any interruption this causes with our livers' activities or other inconveniences felt by our fans and supporters during this process"
>completely ban anyone from talking about all the recent drama
>fire all of EN management and replace them with people that can actually fucking speak English
>wait for everything to blow over
>???

>>68921730
>SHUT THE FUCK UP
>SHUT THE FUCK UP
>SHUT THE FUCK UP
Can't emphasize this part enough

>>68921027
Do absolutely nothing and rake in the free paychecks. Pretty much what they've already been doing.

Release bullshit apology statement "We were wrong, we're sorry and we'll be better now" proceed to do nothing and continue on as you did before.

>>68921027
Very publicly fire the entirety of the NijiEN management team.
Hire Luca's leaker ex to be his manager for the lulz

>>68921027
Brief apology into shutting the fuck up

>>68921027
>Fire Elira, Ike, Vox for going "rogue" with their video
>signal boost the CEO's apology to investors
>pretend everything is fine

This entire situation remind me of that time United Airlines beat the shit out of that asian doctor to get him off the plane so they can move some of their own people. Resulting in a drop in stock price and adopting a policy to pay people to make room on their flights.

Bribes are better than bad PR. Because bribes are infinitely less costly than what bad PR does to your stock price. They should have given Selen(and every graduated/terminated liver for that matter) a golden parachute in exchange for an NDA and a mutual non-disparage.

>>68921984
i kneel to this mastermind plan

>>68921027
I rape Rosemi.
Probably would result in less of a PR nightmare.

>>68921027
First I'll make a youtube video proclaiming everyone is guilty especialy the one YOU are thinking about to further fuel the witch hunt.
Second I'll rape Rosemi in the elevator and then quit.

>>68921957
yes anon im a nijiEN staff

>>68921027
quit

>>68921957
Yes.
They're all far too ESL to have written this OP.

>>68921027
I rape Petra on camera and blame it on Selen.

>>68921027
>go into court just start talking in animalese
>exhibit 1 is a pic of selen's huge boobs
>exhibit 2 is a pic of doki's small chest
>wheel in a big tv so that the vtubers can appear on it
>turn it into a zatsudan stream
>have surprise guests that read prepared statements to further smear selen
>"accidentally" doxx everyone to completely eliminate the EN branch at all
>JP bros cheer, the western threat has been eliminated

>>68921027
>Your honor, and ladies and gentlemen of the jury! We've been told that this girl, this girl right here, she tried to commit suicide. But it's unimaginable! It's impossible!
>You see, this noose right here it doesn't even fit!
*sloppily tries to put a noose over Selen's neck, lazily forces it a bit, fails after two tugs*
>And so you see, if it doesn't fit, you must acquit.

This company's problem is when it should shut the fuck up and do nothing, it does the opposite. And when it should do something, it does nothing.

>>68921027
Do literally nothing. Tell livers to not talk about it, don't make any statements, nothing. Just pretend it never happened, quietly fight the court case in the background, and wait for the backlash to blow over.

>>68922737
The police famously planted evidence in the OJ investigation and would have forced the jury to acquit by that alone.

>>68921027
>What do you do?
SHUT THE FUCK UP
Complete fucking radio silence, not a peep from any liver, management, even fucking riku would be told to tape their trap shut, and not even type a single word more.
Fire everyone in management, despite how tempting it is, do not fire a single liver until shit calms down, otherwise you're fanning the flames even further, start arranging shit for the ones on the way out though, give them red carpet because they now KNOW that any misstep is a free bullet they can fire into the company.
Get selen on phone, all but force everyone into a dogeza and hope all she wants is money to keep her trap shut.
repeat for every other former talent, with any luck the remaining ENs on the way out go quietly and either the rest are merged or the entire branch is dissolved.

>>68921027
I simply watch Total Niji Death unfold from my front row seat.

>>68921027
Is this before or after Elira/Vox/Ike made that video? If Before, literally do nothing and collect funds.

If after, quit on the spot.

Quit. We're now beyond saving.
Pomu, Selen, Nina, and Mysta are already out.
Niji fanbase is in uproar since Selen. The CEO had to do a public apology. There's nothing left to be saved. It's over

Simple. Fire the current EN management, release an heartful statement about generic "recent events" having been brought to our attention leading us to the decision to put more care and attention about our talents' wellbeing in the future by revising our policies, reprimand the supposed bullies and tell them they'll be fired next if I even hear about a vague rumour regarding someone being bullied.
If anyone still dissent, kick him them out as well.
Stop talking publicly about it that much and wait for things to settle.

>>68921755
4 and 6 are big. Because the Japanese, all the Japanese, seem to think that the west will bend down to their Iron Clad will and want when in fact they should be remembering the West, specifically the United States, dropped two suns on their dumbasses. They need to understand doing things how they want, outside of the country will not work.

>>68922774
it's the time difference obviously

Have Selen, Enna, Millie's roommates naked dogeza on Pornhub
Behead all of EN management on Liveleak

>>68921027

Release statements that offending managers/streamers have been reprimanded and released from contract.
Acknowledge that they mad huge missteps in how the situation was handled.
Move forward with assurances that policies and practices will be implemented to prevent similar cases from occurring.

They literally cannot save their reputation with out eating crow.

>>68921980
>>68921984

Yep. Exactly.

>>68921027
Crash this company.
WITH NO SURVIVORS!!!!!

The subcontractor relationship, merchandising and character rights of the vtuber industry kind of parallel pro wrestling. When WWF(WWE) fucked up in Montreal in 1997 it was the turning point of their company. Loyal fans felt betrayed with how one of the top talents departed the company and it happened while a third party documentary crew was there to capture it all.

This was a massively unpopular move and there was no way to spin it, so they made their own CEO a villain on live TV and had the talent target him directly. It lead to an insanely profitable era for the company, allowing them to devour all competitors and gain mainstream appeal. Only an entertainment company has the luxury to do this. Turn the CEO into a villain and promote the talent to stand up to that villain for the sake of the fans (but in a carefully controlled manner).

This isn't even unprecedented in vtuber community. Tenma tells off the Phase connect founder and CEO semi-regularly.
https://youtu.be/JSX8OeeWrpk?t=89
Sadly japanese culture isnt really flexible enough to have the talent tell the CEO to fuck off like that, not even in character.

>>68921027
Fire every single person involved in NijiEN. Managers, editors, vtubers, everyone. Announce this publicly as an apology and say you will be holding open auditions for a new gen and new management positions which will be strictly filtered by upper management review. Admit to all the retarded shit that happened. Then kill myself at the end of the video

>>68921027
>your ultimate goal is to justify the path the company has taken and to save it from further humiliation.
100% impossible. I own up to the mistakes made and take the appropriate action to fix things. If that includes Terminating half the branch of even convincing Riku that the branch needs to be absorbed into the main branch, then so be it.

>>68923969

It's almost as if she and Kiara knew from the get go that something like this would happen.

>>68921027
Better dead than defending niggersanji

>>68921027
Buy some big fucking dufflebags and rent a car
Steal as much shit from the office as I can.
Pawn it off as fast as possible
Flee to another country.

>>68921027
They fucked up by saying anything in the first place. They should have just let Selen graduate.

Hush money
Simple as

>>68924249
Even yagoo is kind of bullied by the girls. It gives them a "cool boss" vibe that is especially popular in the west. Hololive management has fucked up before but yagoo doesnt get nearly the same kind of hate. The hate is directed at nameless managers, or Omega.

>>68921984
Internal reviews that said we dindu nuffin is the worst PR response especially in a low trust industry like entertainment

>>68921027
You really can't save the reputation or justify any of the actions without also humiliating the company again.
I think the best course of action is throwing all the management under the bus and feigning ignorance to the retarded video release. Like try and make it seem that EN management went rouge and forced that video to smear Selen/Doki because they just hated her that much.

>>68924614
They were so fucking hell bent on preserving their egos that it cost them an entire branch.
Fucking retards.

Considering what happened right fucking now.
>Public execution tier firing of every one to ever be involved in EN management, sate the public bloodshed by throwing them to the wolves
>Right afterwards do a very public show of open new management positions, make sure they are as curated as posible, doesn't fucking matter how many yachts worth it costs, make sure these fuckers are actually gonna do their jobs well
>Take every single EN left, personally go 1 by 1 and truly ask them if they are still gonna stick around, proceed with either of these options
If they all leave
>Arrange shit to make it as huge of an event as possible, make everyone have proper graduations and farewells, keep them as happy as possible until they leave, then announce EN as it's stands is dissolving and being made from the ground up
If enough people stay
>Rebrand EN as a whole, have everyone left merge into one gen, actually fucking promote them properly, if the clique has somehow not fled some fucking how, keep them as far as it's humanly possible from each other, monitor the fuckers and make it clear that if they try anything else they are getting thrown out the backdoor.
and last
If you asked it yesterday the answer would have been so much easier, fucking hell this company

Thread theme for the clown show this is.

>Wait until the talent is about to play one of her favorite games that she never had permission to play while she was working for us.

>>68925275
Accidentally erased the last bit
>Phone all former talent, starting with selen, and just fucking BEG, give her whatever the fuck she wants short of Enna's head on a plate, at this point no price is actually too high to keep her mouth shut.
>Same with zaion
>Same with nina
>Basically do this for everyone in EN who left

I would personally pin it all on Elira, saying that she had misled management about bullying and went around them to do that stream, and then fire her, Vox and Ike. Then I would apologize very deeply and assure everyone everyone involved has been cut and apologize to Selen profusely. Then I'd send Selen a small one time payment of $1 million dollars for her to put in a good word for me.

Anyone still doubting this shit is bigger than Hololive's Taiwan fiasco??

> basically offer the equivalent of pizza parties to talents: permissions, sponsors, whatever
Voiceless managers will be the one taking the heat, and those who left by the end will be worked even harder until the deficit is resolved (w). Fans only listen to talents anyway, and with how popular vtubers actually are, the company will have no difficulties hiring another reasonably talented staff member.
I mean, this whole debacle could be blamed on a direct manager in the first place!

>>68921078
fpbp

>>68921027
Immediately pay Doki whatever it takes for her to drop everything, that shit is extremely toxic, fire the clique and the worst offenders from EN management, and have Tazumi announce that they apologise for everything that has happened. Alternately, >>68921078.

>>68926714
No, the Taiwan incident was especially egregious and the source of the damage can be pinned on the childish behavior that is culturally engrained in the most populous nation on Earth that has an axe to grind with the West.

>>68921027
Bribe Doki to shut up (i.e settle out of court), take down Elira’s video and never mention any of this again.

You can offer me 1 million USD and I will still refuse to work there

>>68921027
maybe just maybe fire a lot of people from management and organs with proof that they fucked up but at this point it's easier to just jump off the ship

>>68921027
Run with the money

>>68921027
Have Riku stream a continuous naked dogeza for 3 days on Youtube.

>>68921027
Have the CEO make a public apology from his yacht. Telling in simple words how he gives the vtubers a paltform and how doki was nothing without him.

Pick out one of the niji girls like enna for public hanging and fire her for bullying selen and being the true bad guy behind all this.

Try to pay selen to get her to drop the case, behind the scenes.

Not talk about it any more and pretend like nothing ever happened.

>>68921078
fpbp

An empire toppled by its enemies can rise again. But one which crumbles from within? That's dead, forever.

Have the management take full public responsibility for the incident, and defend the talent from any blame even if they had done something wrong.
Apologise and agree to settle outside of court.
Have everyone go on break for a couple of weeks and announce return streams where they each talk about how they still believe in the company. Allow people who want to leave leave, making sure to pressure them with the fact that if they chat shit about niji after they leave they'll be sued to shit in a smear campaign.
If good will is restored, keep the branch alive, if not, then after a year group everyone in to Niji JP

>>68921027
Look for a new job
