Chapter 707 Acting at the same time?

"Ah, you, Mikyo!"

"Yes, I'm sorry! Ex-senior, please listen to my explanation first!"

He quickly waved his hand to stop Park Ji-eun who was about to stand up subconsciously. Baek Mi-kyung blushed and stammered, "A-Actually, seniors, think about it... me and Senior Yang's script has already been finalized, no matter how much you modify it, the quality can't be improved much, can it?"

"……so what?"

Raising his arms and crossing his arms, Park Zhien sat on the sofa and looked at Bai Mijing with an unfriendly expression, "So you want to steal my man?"

"Ah, senior, I..."

"Hey, all right, Miss Zhien."

A helpless smile could not help but appear on the handsome face, Han Yu turned his head to look at the angry Park Zhien, and said a little bit dumbfoundingly: "Let's listen to what Director Bai has to say first."

After he finished speaking, he turned his head and turned his eyes to Bai Meijing who was standing in front of the two of them with a worried expression, looked at her carefully, and then continued to speak softly: "So, what are you, Director Bai? Why did you think of inviting me to be your hero again?"

"I will make this request to you, Actor Han, because I really have my own reasons..."

Maybe it was Han Yu's gentle attitude that eased Bai Mijing's nervousness a little. After Park Ji-eun was temporarily calmed down by Han Yu, she took another deep breath and finally spoke smoothly.

"I've already figured it out before. The TV station's consideration now is not actually the quality of the script. There is only one reason why the TV station suddenly changed its mind, that is, they think "Eun Dong Ah" is about a sad love story. I am worried that it will not be competitive with "Producer" or other TV dramas of the same level."

"Well...you're right."

After listening to Bai Meijing's still a little quiet, but clear analysis, Han Yu showed a pensive look on his face, and nodded slightly in agreement.

The fact that Bai Meijing said is actually not difficult to think of.

In South Korea, apart from the three major TV stations, there are also many cable TV stations established by private funds, such as JTBC, tvN, and OCN, which are the best of them.

TV stations like this, born purely driven by profit, often value the success or failure of a TV series more than wireless stations.

As we all know, the most fundamental difference between Korean cable TV stations and wireless TV stations is that the former is paid for viewing, while the latter is free.

Therefore, as a paid cable TV station, JTBC is naturally much more cautious than well-established and free wireless TV stations such as MBC and KBS in terms of scheduling dramas.

This is also one of the reasons why many cable TV stations are keen on shooting golden and soil dramas.

Compared with weekdays, the golden soil dramas scheduled on Friday and Saturday nights obviously mean a larger audience base.

As for why we don’t just shoot weekend dramas, one is because weekend dramas in South Korea usually need to shoot more than [-] episodes—this approach is from a long-term perspective. During the golden period like weekends, the number of episodes will be longer. There will be more audience bonding, but for cable TV, the longer the episode, the greater the risk it will take.

The second reason is because the schedule of weekend dramas is occupied by the three major channels, and the cable channel does not have enough confidence, and there is no need to compete with the three major channels.

Of course, such a statement is not absolute. For example, OCN TV Station in Cable TV is one of the few TV stations in Cable TV that likes to produce weekend mini-series.

Compared with the fairly uniform production methods of the three major TV stations, cable TV stations adopt different management policies because of their different backgrounds. There are TV stations that focus on various schedules.

All in all, because JTBC's dramas are mainly concentrated in the period of Golden Soil Drama, when they heard that KBS decided to choose Han Yu as the leading actor in "The Producer", JTBC's people immediately became nervous.

Originally, the schedule of the golden soil drama was blank. JTBC only needed to compete with a few cable TV stations. As a result, KBS, the three major TV stations, wanted to share a piece of the cake.

Of course, let alone JTBC, after hearing the news, the other cable stations probably won't be in a better mood.

It doesn't necessarily mean that Han Yu is afraid of Han Yu, nor does it mean that in the eyes of JTBC, Han Yu, a newly popular actor, has more weight than Kim Soo Hyun, Shidi, but because Han Yu himself is indeed a popular trend since this period of time, who There is also no guarantee that after KBS replaces him in a new drama, whether the ratings will take advantage of the trend.

In case of failure, such consequences are really not what JTBC wants to see.

Although Bai Meijing's words just now are direct, they are also very realistic.

From JTBC's point of view, they don't care whether the script is good or not, what they care about is the ratings.

Whoever can win more ratings will get the schedule.

"So, since I can't start with the script, I thought about whether I can solve the problem from another angle."

Han Yu's nod of approval seemed to give Bai Meijing a lot of confidence. A little excited look appeared on her nervous little face before. She raised her hand to help her glasses on the bridge of her nose, and her eyes were a little bright. Di and Han Yu in front of them looked at each other, and said carefully: "What the TV station is worried about is the ratings, but the ratings of a drama don't just depend on the script. There are many factors involved, such as the director, The production staff behind the scenes, and... the actors."

Upon hearing Bai Meijing's words, those deep eyes couldn't help but narrowed slightly, and Han Yu also fully understood the reason why Bai Meijing made such a request to him just now.

In the final analysis, Bai Meijing just saved a trick.

In the production of Korean TV dramas, the success factors basically consist of three factors: script, actors, and director.

The last point often accounts for very little, and the first two are more important.

Although everyone will say that TV dramas win by the plot, in fact, everyone knows that sometimes, a "good actor" may be able to save all the disadvantages.

As for JTBC, the current Han Yu is undoubtedly a good choice.

They don't care whether Han Yu is suitable for the drama "Eun Dong Ah". What they are interested in is only Han Yu's current popularity.

You know, Han Yu is not only a popular actor now, but his younger sister is also Lin Yuner, a member of the national group Girls' Generation. Like this, it can almost be said that two celebrities carry the fame of two people, which is very important for any drama. It is a rare figure who attracts popularity.

So Baek Mi-kyung's proposal is really likely to solve the current dilemma that "Eun Dong Ah" is suffering from.

only……

"Oh, it's impossible! I don't agree!"

Simply slapping the table with the script, Park Ji Eun stood up and looked at Baek Mi Kyung with a frown.

Of course she understood what Han Yu understood.

Bai Meijing's idea is fundamentally correct, but it is too unrealistic for the actual situation.

"Ah, Meijing... Originally, I regarded you as my beloved junior, so I was willing to hand over Yi Shi's last work to you to create, but now you are here to fight against me ?"

Seeing the obvious strong anger on Park Zhien's face, Bai Mijing's cheeks flushed again, she quickly raised her hand and waved it, looking like she was about to cry, and stammered: " Ah, me, senior, I am not..."

"Okay! Whether you mean it or not!"

Impatiently, he waved his hand and directly interrupted Bai Mijing's voice to explain something. Park Zhien pursed his lips tightly, and then continued with a calm face: "First of all! The drama "Eundong" The age of the leading actor and Xiaoyu does not match, and the role is not suitable, so you let Xiaoyu play it just because of his popularity? Mijing, do you think this is plausible?! Secondly! Xiaoyu has already agreed to appear in "Producing People"! Do you think what you said is feasible?!"

"me……"

"What me! Or do you really want to compete with me for the male lead?!"

"I, I, I'm not..."

"Okay, sister Zhien, if you have something to say, sit down and talk about it."

Looking at Bai Mijing's little face that turned pale under the series of reprimands from Park Zhien, Han Yu still shook his head helplessly and said something.

"Huh! Hey... I really got angry..."

"That, that..."

At this time, Bai Mijing, who hung her head under Park Zhien's glaring eyes, raised her little hand timidly, as if afraid of being interrupted by Park Zhien again, she whispered a word quickly:

"A-actually... Korean actors can act in two dramas together."

moment.

The two of Han Yu looked at the cautious Bai Meijing, their eyes looked dazed and weird.
