My Entertainment Circle

In the past, TV stations had an absolute lead in the competition with brokerage companies. Because all artists need "TV" as a channel for exposure, but with the development of the times, the exposure of artists is not just TV. In addition, the influence of Korean idols has gradually spread all over the world, and brokerage companies have occupied a high point in this game between the two sides.

Because the artists of a certain group have become popular, the program groups of various TV stations are scrambling to invite them to be guests on the show. After all, in this era, the program groups are a group of interests that only look at ratings. Therefore, the program groups of various TV stations at the same time are very competitive with each other, which has also created changes between TV stations and brokerage companies.

The three major brokerage companies have more popular celebrities, so TV programs still need to rely on the artists of the three major companies to cooperate.

But now Zhang Pingan has given small and medium-sized brokerage companies a platform to show their trainees, and now all small and medium-sized companies have begun to look at the eyes of the TV stations in turn. The national girl group, plus the next national boy group in Zhang Pingan's mouth. Gradually, the three major companies will lose their absolute dominance in this invisible competition. So the program produced by Zhang Pingan can also be seen as a disguised suppression of the three major monopoly markets, right?

Although Lee Soo Man also knew that Zhang Pingan did not mean this, he was indeed kindly reminding Zhang Pingan. Because he has already begun to make enemies in the entertainment industry invisibly, whether it is the three major companies or those small and medium-sized companies that have no chance to debut, they will have some resentment towards Zhang Pingan. However, Zhang Pingan's relationship with their S.M is still very ambiguous.. In addition, Lee Soo Man has absolute confidence, so he doesn't care.

Sashimi and warm sake came up, and Zhang Pingan took the wine pot to pour wine for Lee Soo Man. As he poured, he said: "In China, when the younger generation toasts the elders, the younger generation takes the initiative to pour wine for the elders. This is exactly the opposite of the Korean drinking table culture. In Korea, the elders pour the first glass of wine for the younger generation."

Lee Soo Man smiled and said: "We are dining privately, so there is no need to talk about polite etiquette. Today..." Lee Soo Man's words, just said here, the mobile phone in Zhang Pingan's pocket rang.

Zhang Pingan took out his phone, smiled at Lee Soo Man, and nodded to indicate that he would answer the phone first. Lee Soo Man made a "please" gesture. After all, Zhang Pingan is a very busy PD. It is impossible for him to not answer the outside calls when dining with him.

After all, everyone is in the entertainment industry, so they all know that the calls from the entertainment industry may be a collaboration? Then naturally, they can't miss the call.

But the first sentence Zhang Pingan said made Lee Soo Man smile bitterly and shook his head. Zhang Pingan continued the phone and said, "Oh, Tiffany, what's wrong?"

Tiffany said, "I just heard from Seohyun that you went to the set to visit?"

"Yeah,

I went to their set in the afternoon. You are calling at this time to invite me to dinner, right? I am not free today. I am having dinner with Teacher Lee Soo Man." Zhang Pingan first told his schedule and even used the name "Lee Soo Man".

Tiffany on the phone immediately laughed and said, "Haha, you are having dinner with teacher Lee Soo Man? Can you find a better excuse?"

Zhang Pingan deliberately said, "Don't believe it? Do you want to ask teacher Lee Soo Man to answer the phone?" Zhang Pingan mischievously pressed the "hands-free" button after saying this.

"Okay. Ask teacher Lee Soo Man to answer the phone." After Tiffany said this, Lee Soo Man happened to hear it. So Lee Soo Man said, "Tiffany, I am really having dinner with Zhang Pinganxi."

When Tiffany heard the familiar voice of Lee Soo Man, she was stunned for a few seconds and then said, "Uh, is it really the teacher? Then I won't disturb you to eat."

Tiffany quickly hung up the phone and said to Taeyeon beside her, "He is really having dinner with teacher Lee Soo Man. I thought he was joking with me."

"Maybe there is some work to discuss." Taeyeon could only think of cooperation when meeting with Lee Soo Man. As for what the two were plotting, they didn't ask.

As for why Tiffany called Zhang Pingan, it was because the Spring Festival was coming and they were going to have a holiday, so they asked Zhang Pingan if he had any plans. After all, the two of them spent the Spring Festival in China with Zhang Pingan last year.

Tiffany said, "Well, do you think Zhang Pingan will ask us to spend the Spring Festival in China this year?"

"I don't think so, his program is so busy."

Yes, Zhang Pingan's program is on the Internet every day during this period. In addition, with such a large competitive program, many trainees will not go home for the holiday, right?

If the trainees don't leave, then Zhang Pingan, the general PD, will definitely not leave?

.......

After Zhang Pingan hung up Tiffany's phone with a smile, Lee Soo Man didn't wonder about the relationship between Zhang Pingan and Tiffany, because Girls' Generation no longer had a dating ban, and they were already "old hands", and they knew how to weigh the pros and cons of dating, so Lee Soo Man didn't need to care about these. Unless the caller was Lee Sunkyu, then he might ask a few more questions.

After hanging up the phone, Li Xiuman raised his wine glass. After the two drank the first glass of wine, Li Xiuman picked up the jug and poured wine for Zhang Pingan. He used Korean etiquette and Zhang Pingan used Chinese etiquette. Anyway, they were pouring wine to each other.

Li Xiuman said: "This year, the cooperation between us is still very good. I hope we can work more closely with PD Zhang next year. By the way, didn't you ask me about Hong Beibei some time ago?"

Zhang Ping'an held the wine that Li Xiuman poured for him, raised his head and drank a toast, then ate sashimi while listening to him talk about their company's decision.

Li Xiuman continued: "I asked the marketing department about this matter, and they were also very hesitant about whether they should take over as the main editor this time? Logically speaking, there can be a main program using them, and it is still produced by you, PD Zhang, then It must be their blessing. It’s just that they are still a group of newcomers, and our company is not sure whether they can support this show.”

In fact, Hong Beibei has already gained quite a lot of popularity due to the song "Dumb. Dumb", so their company is thinking of taking advantage of the victory and letting Hong Beibei take root in the music industry first, so they need more Release a few albums, and then run some variety shows as guests. As for what Zhang Ping'an said about the main variety show, it would be better if they could delay it for a little longer and let them accumulate more experience, so that they would not suffer from poor results. , and cut the show too quickly.

After all, it is a main program. It would be a pity to abandon the main program and choose a TV show. But what makes their company most difficult is this main program... Zhang Ping'an requires the five of them to have their entire time! Rather than just one or two members being the anchors of the main series.

At this time, when Li Xiuman talked about this matter, he was asking Zhang Ping'an if he could suppress it for a while.

Zhang Ping'an said: "This time I designed a travel program. After all, Luo Yingshi and I have been studying the filming of travel programs for a long time, so I want to try it alone this time? After all, everyone's living standards have improved now, and we watch TV every day While pursuing delicious food...traveling will become the next big thing! ”

Food, clothing, housing and transportation are the foundation of people's lives. Especially for young people today, it is almost very difficult to buy a house by "working", but it is not difficult to use the money earned from working to travel. Therefore, it is not wrong that the next highlight in Zhang Ping'an's mouth is 'travel'.

Lee Soo Man said: "How did you envision your program?"

Zhang Ping'an tilted his head and said: "Travel programs don't require any imagination, right? Travel in my eyes is a combination of beautiful scenery and delicious food. The scenery is beautifully photographed, the food is exquisitely photographed, and it is a completely casual travel program." This is not a slogan about traveling. In fact, there are various tasks every day like "New Journey to the West"!

It sounded like it was just a simple trip, which made Li Xiuman a little disappointed: "It's a trip~~"

Zhang Ping'an looked at Li Xiuman's eyes and laughed: "Teacher Li Xiuman, don't underestimate travel. A trip is often the cure for daily nervous viewers. Some viewers may not be able to travel overseas, so the program It also means "surrogate satisfaction". Isn't the term "surrogate satisfaction" very popular recently? Aren't food programs and food broadcasts an extension of "surrogate satisfaction"?

Li Xiuman shook his head and said: "I don't underestimate travel, and I actually like traveling personally. It's just because I have too many things at work that I don't have the opportunity to travel."

Zhang Ping'an nodded: "That's why the term 'agency satisfaction' appears. Let's see, if you here are really unwilling to shoot such a main story, then I will compensate the children with another drama."

Lee Soo Man smiled and said, "We are definitely willing to cooperate with PD Zhang. I will ask my agent to contact you about this specific matter? By the way, Lin Yoona has been receiving many invitations from China recently."

Lee Soo Man missed the question about the travel program and instead talked about Lim Yoon Ah.

Of course Zhang Pingan knows that Lin Yoona has a lot of work in China after the Spring Festival: "Her TV series should be released soon, maybe she has to attend some variety shows to cooperate with the promotion, right?"

Lee Soo Man said, "It should be. What do you think of Lim Yoona's TV series this time?"

Zhang Ping'an said with a wry smile: "I haven't seen the movie, how would I know? But... it should be very good. After all, the early publicity of this drama before filming had already whetted the audience's appetite. ”

"Hahaha, the rest depends on the reaction to Lin Yoona's TV series. I hope Yoona can have better development in China. Come on, have a drink."
