South Korean Entertainment Industry News Record

Every Monday to SBS, every Thursday to KBS, every two to three weeks to MBC.

Until December, Zhang Che basically lived like this.

By mid-December, the show "Invincible Youth" finally came to an end by filming a Christmas special, and the one-year and two-month-long show had come to an end.

That night, Zhang Che invited all the staff to have a meal together. Although the girls were not very interested, the program team was relatively good. After all, they were not worried about work. There's the next show, there's always their job.

Liu Haozhen, who is as uninterested as the girls, is going to "Two Days and One Night" in a few days. Although Zhang Che helped him to greet Luo Yingshi, he felt embarrassed for him when he thought about it. They are all the main PDs, but they are going to another show to help the executive PDs. I have to say that KBS is actually very strange to some extent.

Except for "Invincible Youth", "Idol of the Week" is as stable as always, hovering around 1%. Because of the relationship between cable stations, the advertising price has not been very high, but the cost is relatively low, so it will continue to flow. The average profit in a year is also quite impressive.

And Zhang Che's ensemble CCM for T-ARA in the middle of the year finally broadcast it to cooperate with T-ara's return.

In the end, CCM did not cooperate with its brother unit, but chose MBC, and it can only be said that CCM has a lot of money to broadcast music channels like MBCMusic. You must know that in the filming agreement signed with Zhang Che, Zhang Che only owns the copyright, and other expenses, including advertising revenue, belong to CCM, but it seems that CCM does not care about the so-called advertising revenue at all.

Since this variety show, which Zhang Che spoofed called "A Beautiful Day", started broadcasting in mid-October, the response it has caused has been quite good. It’s not that no idol groups have filmed group variety shows before, but such variety shows that go directly to the outdoors in the form of travel missions are still rare. In addition, this time period is officially T-ara’s rising period, so in terms of ratings, quite impressive.

As the most outstanding girl in the whole broadcast process, Quan Baolan's popularity skyrocketed all of a sudden. Fans who were still controversial about whether she could be a good captain suddenly accepted that she was a bit stupid and always played, but she seemed very responsible. cute girl.

To this end, Zhang Che jokingly asked Xiaomin to invite Quan Baolan as a guest. You must know that in order to edit this scene, he stayed in the editing room for a week by himself, and the subtitles and soundtrack were changed again and again.

Then, one day, Zhang Che really received a courier, a box of Korean beef and a thank you letter, although the letter was very simple and just one line, "Although it is not worthy of special thanks, but a box of Korean beef is still welcome. up."

There was no sign, Zhang Che was very strange at first. After confirming that it was not rancid or damaged, he threw it in the refrigerator. It was only when he talked about this incident on the phone with Xiaomin, that Zhang Che remembered.

Thanks to the T-ara chapter of "A Beautiful Day", Zhang Che has recently become a little famous in the PD industry, and it can be regarded as a masterpiece, so Zhang Che took advantage of the situation and submitted a plan to Li Cailin seriously together with Zheng PD. Report.

"Are you going to make this show a series???"

Looking at the two people in front of her, Li Cailin said with a headache.

"Well, we discussed it for a while and felt that this show is still very interesting, the cost is not high, and the ratings are not low, so we can continue to do it!" Zhang Che said.

"What about the profit point? Do you know that we only have one copyright, and not all companies will give us enough production fees. CCM is because of the hype about you and Enjing before, so it's a half-apology, okay?" Li Cailin He frowned and said, "Also, it's not like before. The financial audit from LOEN has come in. Although it is said that they will not interfere with the operation, they have the right to supervise the settlement at the end of the year, have you forgotten?"

"This is a good explanation. As a variety show production company, if it doesn't have its own branded variety show, it's not unprofitable, it's just a little less." Zhang Che has also considered this, and to put it bluntly, it is necessary. Just an excuse to explain the past.

Li Cailin was noncommittal about this. From her point of view as a professional operations manager, Zhang Che's words were unreasonable, but LOEN's side might indeed take it.

"So, what are you going to do this time, or are you still looking for CCM?" Li Cailin asked casually.

"No, our principle is to make one group from one group. Now is the prosperous age of women's groups. With so many girl groups, you can always find a suitable group." Zhang Che said, "Besides, T-ara's publicity effect is so good. , as long as you pass here, we are afraid that no one will come after we let out the wind?"

"Let's talk about it when you find a suitable group!" Li Cailin decided to put it on hold for now and bring it up when she meets with the LOEN people at the end of the year.

"Speaking of which, "Invincible Youth" is over. You should be free next Thursday, right?" Li Cailin asked after changing the topic.

"Well, it should be, what's wrong?"

"Isn't next Thursday the day the company recruits trainees? You've been doing it all the time before, why don't you come and see?"

"Uh... so fast?"

"It's too fast, who suggested to me that we should recruit trainees. In the past six months, I finally managed to get through the representatives of LOEN, the trainee supervisor, the vocal music teacher, and the dance teacher. The training room has also been renovated. Well, you told me so quickly???"

"That's not true, I always feel a little unreal, so let's start training artists?"

"What do you mean? Are you still going to go back on it? I can tell you that people in LOEN can watch it now. Even if you fight, you will put it together for me."

"Okay, I get it!" Zhang Che hurriedly surrendered and said, "Next Thursday, right? I'll be there!"

There was no way, this was all brought about by Zhang Che.

At the beginning, on a whim, I thought I should set up a platform for Solji, and then I thought about EXID, and after thinking about it, I wanted to get An Xiyan, An Xiaozhen, Xu Huilin, and Park Zhenghua together.

However, the reality is cruel. After asking someone for a long time, Ange couldn't find anyone. It is said that An Xiaozhen, who is half a composer, should be a rock musician in Hongdae, but I found out that there is such a person, but they are good at rock and roll. I don't have any idea to debut as idols. As for Xu Huilin and Park Zhenghua... Who knows where they are?

Even if the main master could not be found, Zhang Che's idea of ​​forming a trainee team faded away.

This matter was gradually put on hold by Zhang Che, and Zhang Che was very busy during this time. It was "Runningman" again, and it was the end of "Invincible Youth", so when I suddenly talked about this, Zhang Che was very busy. Che really has a faint sense of unreality.

No matter what, he was carrying his own blame, so on Thursday, Zhang Che came to the company early and waited.

"By the way, what are you doing here so early?"

"Didn't you say you're going to recruit trainees today?"

"Well, yes, but that started in the afternoon, right?"

"Starting in the afternoon? Is there enough time?"

"What's too late, there are only 20 applicants in total, and I plan to accept 15 people. Basically, except for those who are really outrageous, they can basically enter, and it doesn't take two hours to add up!"

"Uh... we're... so miserable here?"

"You think everyone is S.M. Every time you recruit trainees, there are huge crowds?"

"Then I came too early?"

"Well, but you came just in time. Regarding rainbow's new album, the DSP has sent the latest request over here. Just come over with me to discuss what to do?"

"Eh?"

"Hey what, originally the designated producer was you, and I was the one who started it. Who would have known that you were the boss of the hands-off. I've been the one to hold these meetings, okay? Don't think about being lazy at this moment. It's gone!"

"...Okay, brother!"

In this way, Zhang Che, who came early, was dragged directly into the recording studio by Li Haoyang. By the time Zhang Che came out of the recording studio in a dizzy state, it was already half past one in the afternoon.

"Okay, everyone is here, let's go to the conference room and prepare to start!" Li Cailin nodded with satisfaction when she saw Zhang Che's dizzy appearance. She thought that Zhang Che had come to work early.

The entire judging team consisted of five people, headed by Li Cailin, Zhang Che, Li Haoyang, Kim Ki-dae and Xu Solzhi.

Li Cailin is in charge of gathering opinions, Zhang Che and Li Haoyang are the representatives of the company's directors, and Jin Jidae is an old-fashioned agent. He has seen between 100 and 80 trainees. Don't be too poisonous, and Xu Solzhi is the only one. Technical work, as a vocal teacher.

That is to say, although there are five people, three people actually call the shots, Li Cailin, Kim Jidae, and Xu Solzhi.

This is the conclusion Zhang Che came to after interviewing the first five people, because Li Cailin, a sister he was very optimistic about, was judged to be unqualified.

"By the way, isn't this very beautiful?" Zhang Che was quite satisfied.

"After she came in, her eyes kept turning~www.readwn.com~ There was no truth in the question she asked, but at first glance, she was a dishonest master!" This is Jin Ji Da's evaluation.

"I'm 23 years old, I haven't received professional singing training, my vocal range is not wide enough, and my timbre is very ordinary, so it's hard to have training value!" This is Xu Suizhi's evaluation.

"Unqualified!" This was Li Cailin's decision.

"I said... isn't it beautiful?" This was Zhang Che's struggle.

Li Cailin ignored him, just glanced at him and called the next one directly, or Li Haoyang secretly said to Zhang Che, "Don't you think the one just now looks like Lin Yuner?"

"Yeah, do you think so too?" Zhang Che secretly winked at Li Haoyang and said.

"So, maybe nine times out of ten, it's the whole thing!" Li Haoyang said angrily to Zhang Che.

"Uh... Actually, it's not a big problem, is it? I don't believe that everyone in the S.M family is the golden ratio of wiseness and martial arts!" Zhang Che said angrily.

"The key person is S.M, we are us, we cannot afford to take this risk!" Li Haoyang said with a sigh.

Having said that, Zhang Che understood that co-authoring with a big company can be whitewashed, but a small company like ours is better to be a little more obedient, and try to find something that is not so crooked.

If you want to be a trainee, there are not many people who are crooked and cracked. Although the few people who came in later are not as beautiful as the one just mentioned, they are not bad at all.

For example, the current one has pretty good black hair and a little round face, but the facial features still look quite three-dimensional, but... Zhang Che inexplicably thinks, is this girl more suitable for gold? Qi-ear short hair?

That's right, Pu Cao'e xi.
