My Entertainment Circle

The so-called 'New Year's Eve dinner' between Li Xiuman and Zhang Ping'an was actually just a normal social interaction to bring their relationship closer, and since it happened to be the eve of the Spring Festival, this could also be regarded as a kind of end-of-year thank you banquet, right? After all, Zhang Pingan had a lot of cooperation with their company last year, and Zhang Pingan had a deep personal relationship with Girls' Generation, so Zhang Pingan chose to make concessions on many business levels.

So it is only natural for today's meal to express gratitude. After all, S.M hopes to have more cooperation with Zhang Pingan in the future, and it is quite rare for a top producer like him to strengthen cooperation.

A meal deepens feelings and future cooperation. This is communication.

Of course, last year, Zhang Pingan's cooperation with S.M seemed to suffer a lot, and he even went so far as to give S.M artists free work in China. Um...this 'free' just means that Zhang Pingan Huaxia Brokerage Company does not draw corresponding commissions, but S.M still has to pay for the reimbursed expenses. However, the free agency contract for S.M artists to carry out activities in China is not a loss for Zhang Pingan's company. At least the company took advantage of the Korean Wave and Girls' Generation's fame in Asia to give their company corresponding exposure.

The exposure of a brokerage company can be converted into its popularity, which is the most direct demonstration of the company's strength. Maybe those who don't care much about the entertainment industry don't know the benefits of a brokerage company becoming famous. The more famous you are, the better resources you can get. Whether it’s the new talent resources from the school or the market resources... To sum it up in one sentence: Fame is brand effect!

After finishing his meal with Li Xiuman, Zhang Pingan sat in the car and waited for the driver to arrive. After a while, a taxi stopped at the door of the restaurant, and the 'chauffeur' also got out of the car. After she got off the car, she quickly glanced around the parking lot. When she saw Zhang Pingan's dark green Bentley, she walked over with a smile. Then she opened the driver's door very casually and sat in it.

After the driver got in, a strong smell of perfume filled the entire car. Zhang Pingan frowned and said, "Pani, have you poured all the perfume on yourself? The smell is too strong!"

Pani glared at Zhang Ping'an angrily, and then said: "I have work today. I'm here to drive for you. I've given you a lot of face, but you are still picky? Why don't you call me? Where is your Taeyeon? Do you really think I’m easy to bully?”

For celebrities and artists, it is a matter of etiquette to put on a little perfume when working, right? It’s just that women have a wide variety of perfumes, and the perfumes they choose to wear when attending different occasions also have different smells. Zhang Pingan has not done any research on how they choose. Anyway, when I used to play in nightclubs, many women chose slightly strong scents.

Zhang Pingan smiled and said: "Aren't you with Taeyeon? I called you, I thought you two were coming together?"

"Don't you know better? She was too lazy to go out after returning to the dormitory." After saying that, Pani fastened her seat belt and started the car. The two left the restaurant. On the way, Pani said: "Send you back?"

Zhang Pingan looked at Pani and shook his head gently. How could he really use Pani as a substitute driver? So he said: "By the way, have you and Taeyeon had dinner? If not, ask her to come out and have something to eat together? If you eat, I will go to your dormitory to sit for a while? Has Sunkyu moved out?"

Pani glanced at Zhang Ping'an quickly: "It's already this time and you haven't eaten yet? By the way, aren't you busy filming variety shows recently? I think you are quite well-informed. Shun Kyu just moved in last week Go out, it’s only been a few days, and you’ve received the news?”

Zhang Ping'an said with a smile: "I heard Teacher Li Xiuman mention it accidentally when we were eating just now. He said that Shun Gyu was going to his house to celebrate the Spring Festival, and he also said that they live close to each other now. They all say 'living close to each other' Doesn’t it mean that Lee Soon Kyu has moved there?”

When Zhang Pingan talked about the Spring Festival,

Pani also followed his words: "What about you, how do you plan for the Spring Festival?"

Zhang Ping'an shook his head and said: "I don't have any plans. I will go back to celebrate the Spring Festival on the day. I may come to Seoul on the next day or at the latest on the third day. What about you, are you going back to the United States or staying in Seoul?"

Pani said: "I will definitely stay in Seoul. After the Spring Festival, I will participate in a variety show meeting. By the way, Taeyeon's "Please, Refrigerator" in China has been broadcast. Do you know where I can watch it? "

Zhang Pingan said with a smile: "It must be on the computer or in the APP, because it was produced by a video website, and I will watch it tomorrow."

Just as Zhang Ping'an finished speaking, the car phone connected to his mobile phone rang. Pani looked at the name displayed on the display: "Huh? Why did our agent call you?"

The name of Girls' Generation's manager appeared on the caller ID, and of course Pani found it very strange. Not to mention Pani, Zhang Pingan is also strange. He responded: "How should I know?"

Pani nodded and pressed connect: "Oppa, why did you call Zhang Pingan?"

Girls' Generation's manager heard Pani's voice and said strangely: "Oh? Are you and PD Zhang Ping'an together? Give him a call."

Pani said: "Car phone, if you have anything to say, he can hear you."

"PD Zhang, hello."

Zhang Ping'an then responded to Girls' Generation's manager: "Hello, are you okay?"

"It's like this. Jeju Island's mineral water brand 'Samduasui' has asked Taeyeon to endorse it alone."

For artists, individual endorsements are the most lucrative job. When Zhang Ping'an heard that a brand was looking for Taeyeon to endorse, he was also happy for Taeyeon and said: "Oh, that's a good thing. But you should call Taeyeon about this, right?"

The manager said: "No, the manufacturer saw the MV for "I" that you shot for Taeyeon, so this time they want to use you to shoot the MV to shoot Taeyeon's commercial. The manufacturer is willing to pay an extra fee. Pen, the shooting fee will be given to you.”

The outside world knows that Zhang Pingan is very good at shooting landscapes. Whether it is Taeyeon's MV or Lin Yoona's travel Vlog, the scenery in the picture is perfectly depicted.

Zhang Ping'an laughed: "Haha, it turns out that the advertising company not only photographed their brand, but also wanted to promote Jeju Island? Is my guess correct?"

The agent said: "Well... that's right? Because you are indeed a very good director when it comes to landscape photography. Maybe they have this plan... to kill two birds with one stone? If you don't want to shoot, then I'll just refuse."

Zhang Pingan said: "It's okay, I can shoot, but I have to wait until March, if the manufacturer is willing to wait... because I will be filming "New Journey to the West" right after the Spring Festival."

After all, the manufacturers have called Girls' Generation's agent to be their lobbyist. It's very interesting that Zhang Ping'an had time to shoot Taeyeon's commercial for 'San Duo Shui' because he remembered clearly that this commercial was actually Taeyeon's. The song "Blue Night of Jeju Island" sung by Yeon. In fact, this song is a very old song that has been covered by many people, including Taeyeon. However, many fans only know this song through Taeyeon.

Hearing that Zhang Ping'an agreed, the agent won the lottery, and he said excitedly: "Yeah, I'll tell the manufacturer here, and the weather in Jeju Island in March is perfect. Thank you, PD Zhang."

"It's okay. It's good that Taeyeon can securely win this endorsement. Is there anything else?"

"No. Thank you PD Zhang, really, thank you."

After hanging up the phone with Girls' Generation's agent, Pani glanced at Zhang Ping'an and said, "For Taeyeon, you, the top producer in Korea, have started to take on the job of 'shooting commercials'?"

Zhang Ping'an listened to Pani's sour words, he smiled and comforted: "If you want to shoot anything in the future, I will shoot it for you. Or next time we go on a trip, I will shoot a Vlog for you? It's well produced. Pretty?"

"Okay, anyway, just remember to owe me a photo shoot." After receiving Zhang Ping'an's promise of a "shoot", Pani also felt satisfied.

.......

After Sunkyu moved out of Girls' Generation's dormitory, only Taeyeon and Pani were living in the entire dormitory, so Zhang Pingan had the opportunity to go to Girls' Generation's dormitory for the first time.

When Shun Gui lived here, they and Zhang Ping'an were still a little bit shy about avoiding suspicion. At that time, even if Zhang Pingan arrived downstairs in their dormitory, they could not invite him upstairs for a glass of water or anything. Now only Pani and Taeyeon are left in the dormitory, and these two are the members who have the closest relationship with Zhang Pingan, so there are fewer things to avoid. After all, the three of them have lived under the same roof many times. Quite a few.

As the door of Girls' Generation dormitory opened, Pani said to Zhang Ping'an: "Come in."

Taeyeon listened to the sound of Pani bringing people back. Taeyeon, who was sitting in the living room, instantly burst into smiles, because Taeyeon knew very well that Pani had gone out to act as a 'driving car'. Moreover, when Pani went out, the two of them had already agreed to bring Zhang Pingan over for a late-night snack.

Zhang Ping'an entered the entrance and looked at the shoes piled up here. He said, "Don't you put away the shoes you don't wear and put them in the shoe cabinet? There are only two of you. Why are there eight pairs of shoes piled at the door?"

Pani said very nonchalantly: "Yeah, you're the only one who talks a lot. We put our shoes here just for the convenience of wearing them when we go out on weekdays. Do we have to look for them everywhere when we go out? What do you know? Well, you Wear those slippers that Yoona left in the dormitory.”

In the past, there were too many people in their dormitory, and the shoe cabinet in any dormitory was not enough for them to put their shoes in the shoe cabinet. Therefore, they are used to leaving their shoes in the entrance hall instead of sorting out their shoes and putting them in the shoe cabinet immediately after coming back.
