My Entertainment Circle

Chapter 609 Everyone is profit-seeking

Zhang Pingan's two food programs have not yet started production. In order to escape, he agreed to cooperate with Olive on a food program. At this time, in the editing room of tvn's "New Journey to the West", Zhang Ping'an was slumped on the sofa in the rest area and expressed his bitterness to Luo Yingshi, who was editing the film. "I'm really convinced. The director upstairs just pulled me." I don’t want to let it go. If I hadn’t agreed to cooperate, I’m afraid I wouldn’t be able to get off today.”

Zhang Pingan started talking non-stop after he came in, which made Luo Yingshi, who was editing the film, have to get up from the computer. He went to make Zhang Pingan a cup of instant coffee and handed it to him. At the same time, Luo Yingshi said, "Calm down, who is it?" What if I call you a freelance producer? You see, I won't be in this situation. None of them will hold me back for a long time, because they all know that it's useless no matter how much I make them complain. It can only be broadcast on tvn!”

Yes, the problem with Zhang Pingan as a freelance producer is that the programs he creates do not have a fixed broadcast platform, and anyone can compete! Today, the director upstairs staged a sad drama for him and asked him to co-produce it, and Zhang Pingan agreed. Maybe next time he comes to the TV station, there will be other channels trying to get him to star in another drama.

Zhang Ping'an toasted the instant coffee made by Luo Yingshi in one breath. He threw the paper cup into the trash can and said, "It seems that I have to come to CJ Entertainment less often, so as not to be caught by someone next time."

Luo Yingshi smiled and pointed at the editing computer, "How about you edit an episode? I'll take a break?"

Zhang Ping'an knew that if he sat down, he would probably be unable to get up in two or three hours. So he immediately stood up with his iPad. "I have to ask Director Li Minghan which director will be assigned to me? I plan to leave all the food programs to the program team for follow-up."

Luo Yingshi smiled and said, "Are you lazy? As the chief producer, you don't even want to be responsible for editing the film? Aren't you afraid that I will cut the film to waste?"

Zhang Ping'an opened the door, half of his feet on the door, and then said to Luo Yingshi, "If Director Luo cuts the film, then I think there will be no one in Korea who can edit the film! Let's go, Let’s go, I have a lot to do and I plan to go there!”

Luo Yingshi shook his head and waved to Zhang Ping'an and said, "He is indeed the busiest producer in Korea! Okay, go ahead, go ahead."

The producer Zhang Pingan is not only responsible for the production of the program, he is also responsible for the investment of the program and early negotiations with the TV station, etc. Plus he has so many programs to produce, so he must be very busy. Luo Yingshi felt that he was already busy with two programs this time, not to mention that Zhang Pingan was also working on so many programs at the same time. Luo Yingshi also admired Zhang Pingan's energy.

After discussing with Director Li Minghan, he contacted the executive director and chief writer and had a meeting with Zhang Pingan. After the data on Zhang Pingan's iPad was transferred to the director's mailbox of the program team,

They quickly printed it out. Taking this planning list, the three of them held the first preparatory meeting of the program team in the conference room.

Zhang Ping'an said, "The shed for the show does not need to be placed inside the stage. It can also be an outdoor shed. There is no problem with the kitchen equipment, right?"

The director took the plan and said, "The kitchen equipment is very simple. After seeing your sketch of the on-site layout, there is no big problem. The main thing is how to negotiate the sponsorship of the brand? Do I need to talk to the manufacturer about the seasonings used in the food show?" "

"Try to talk about it. Anyway, it's just a matter of covering up the label. In fact, there's no need to discuss any sponsorship with the manufacturer, just let them spend some money to 'display the trademark'. The last time I made "Battle of the Rivers and Lakes" it was Let the manufacturers buy their own 'trademarks', and of course it would be best if they can sponsor it. "Soy sauce, the most commonly used condiment in Korea, has many brands. There will always be a manufacturer willing to spend some money to be exposed in food programs. Their trademark.

Then Zhang Pingan said, "Can I give you a week to arrange the scene?"

"One week" Just when the writer was hesitating, the director next to him pulled the writer's sleeve, and he immediately said, "One week, I promise to complete the task! We will go see if there are any empty sheds outdoors right away."

Zhang Ping'an nodded and said with a smile, "Okay, that's decided for now. I will follow up with Bai Zhongyuan and give you a reply within three days. At that time, Teacher Bai will need to contact you personally! After all, he is an expert in kitchenware brands! "

"Okay, let's get ready first. PD Zhang, your phone number is" Zhang Ping'an exchanged numbers with the writers and directors of the program team and then went downstairs with his iPad in his arms. He set off towards the Dream Center. .

This is the venue at the Dream Center.

Unconsciously, more and more phone calls of the behind-the-scenes staff were stored in Zhang Pingan's mobile phone. If he has his own platform to broadcast programs, he can produce high-quality programs through them.

When Zhang Pingan came here, he saw the promotional poster "st4" they posted. This hiphop show achieved great success in ratings last season, and then Zhang Pingan produced a women's rap survival show, and the ratings followed suit. Therefore, in the past two years, there have been more and more people in Korea who want to become rappers. Anyway, ‘hiphop’ now represents popularity!

And with some rap, I don't know if it's intentional to show off their wealth, or what, all kinds of luxury brands appear on them. They also drive luxury cars, live in luxury houses, etc., which are all disclosed in the program. The most peculiar thing is that some people disclosed their annual income last year. Stimulated by money and fame, more people want to become rappers, because idols dare not show off their wealth, but independent rappers dare to!

Looking at the promotional posters posted everywhere, Zhang Pingan smiled and shook his head. He didn't come here to see them say that this episode of the program has created some history. Yes, Zhang Pingan knows that their audition activities have officially started and the filming of the program has begun. After all, the reports have come out, and it is not an exaggeration to describe the audition site as crowded.

With the popularity of hip-hop, this group of singers who originally lived underground have gradually become a mainstream in Korea, and even a trend! !

Zhang Pingan came to the Variety Bureau and saw that it was still busy here. Yes, it is really busy here recently, because there are too many programs produced by the music TV station, not just this one talent show!

Amid the busy schedule, a staff member saw Zhang Pingan standing in the passage, "PD Zhang, why are you here?"

"See Your Voice" just finished its first season two days ago, and the ratings of the show were quite perfect. But everyone in the station knew that the program team had already started preparing for the production of the second season, and many overseas countries had talked to Zhang Pingan about the introduction of the program. Zhang Pingan really made a lot of money with this "See Your Voice".

Faced with the curiosity of the staff, Zhang Pingan smiled and pointed in the direction of the director's office and said, "I'm here to see the director!"

Only top producers like Zhang Pingan dare to go to the director's office so casually, right? If it was a PD of a program group with low ratings, who would go to the director's office for no reason?

Zhang Pingan passed through many program groups, and even passed through the "See Your Voice" program group and came to the director's office. Led by the secretary, Zhang Pingan entered the office.

The director looked at Zhang Ping'an's arrival and greeted him with a smile on his face, "Oh~~ Producer Zhang, how come you have time to sit here with me today? Xiao Li, go and pour a cup of coffee for PD Zhang."

Zhang Ping'an waved his hand and said, "No, I drank a lot at TVN. Just give me a bottle of mineral water."

The secretary brought Zhang Ping'an a bottle of water and left the office. Zhang Ping'an put down the iPad in his hand, unscrewed the mineral water and took a sip.

Then Zhang Pingan looked at the director with a smile on his face and said, "I have an idea, I want to change the situation at the TV station!"

Zhang Pingan's words confused the director and he said, "Change the situation at the TV station? What situation?"

Zhang Pingan leaned comfortably on the edge of the sofa, then crossed his legs and said, "Of course it's the market situation. I remember that a long time ago, it was the brokerage companies that cooperated with the TV station, but I don't know when the TV station started to cooperate with the brokerage companies? Including now, the brokerage companies have taken the absolute initiative in the market, so I want to change this situation."

The director's eyes sparkled when he heard it, but soon he immediately said disappointedly, "You are talking about a long time ago when the TV station was still arbitrary, and all the artists had to cooperate with the TV station to work. But now the times are different. With the emergence of online self-media, the TV station can no longer monopolize. So those who control The brokerage companies of ‘artists’ will become the market leaders. ”

Zhang Pingan smiled and nodded and said, “I know that the impact of the Internet has a certain impact on TV stations, but it has not yet reached the point of replacement, right? For many good TV series or TV programs, people still prefer to stay in front of the TV to watch the first broadcast. Because only by watching the live broadcast on TV can you have topics to chat with people around you the next day, right? However, I think we can try to change the status quo. ”

The director smiled and shook his head and responded, “You are an agent yourself, will you break your own rice bowl?”

Zhang Pingan crossed his legs and said with a smirk, “In the face of absolute interests, nothing can be broken. Just like the conflict between your station and S was so serious, and it was resolved in the end. Because whether it is an agent, or our businessmen, or your TV station, everyone is pursuing interests! ! ”
