My Entertainment Circle

If the entertainment industry wants to develop vigorously, capital injection is essential. Why are there so many excellent program producers in South Korea? Because the ratings of programs are closely related to the rewards of producers, so they rack their brains to plan some excellent programs. In China, people who work at TV stations are paid dead wages, so no one is willing to try to make excellent programs.

Once the show is done, they will receive so much salary whether it is successful or not, so why do they still have to do thankless things?

Therefore, South Korea and Japan are relatively smart. If the entertainment industry wants to develop, it is naturally inseparable from excellent producers. But where can you find excellent people? It's very simple. Under the heavy reward, there must be a brave man!

In the face of high rewards, no one will be tempted. In the face of high bonuses, there will always be people who dare to try, and even if they fail, there will always be people who dare. And trying is the best training. Otherwise, like the "base camp", it will be the same pattern for more than ten or twenty years, which can only be said to be boring! !

So after Mr. Wang talked about the shortcomings of variety shows caused by fixed salary, Zhang Ping'an smiled and said: "Salary is a problem, and TV station scheduling is also a problem. Chinese people are used to watching TV series at home at night, so the TV station arranges them every day TV dramas are broadcast in the evening, and variety shows may only happen once a week, so naturally they will not receive support for development. This is different in places where the entertainment industry is developed in Korea and Japan. The schedules of TV stations are very full, and TV stations are busy every day. There are different types of variety shows broadcast..."

Zhang Pingan continued: "In South Korea and Japan, TV dramas only air one episode every day during prime time. But our TV dramas, two or even three episodes, occupy all the prime time. They broadcast one episode, and the rest is The prime time was given to variety shows. Not only did the TV series whet the appetite of the audience, the variety shows also developed accordingly, but China cannot do that! So no matter how hard we as producers try, we will not change this situation. It is difficult for Chinese variety shows to develop.”

Mr. Wang smiled and nodded and said: "So, didn't your agency publish the news? I hope the online video company can also participate in the production of the program."

When Mr. Wang said these words, Zhang Pingan finally understood what she meant by the dinner date tonight. It turned out that she was interested in the co-production of the program sent by Zhang Pingan, so she wanted to participate. Come get a share of the show’s production!

Zhang Ping'an said with a smile: "We have announced this news, but for now, I have not thought about producing any programs in China. If you ask me if I am willing to come back to produce, of course I am willing. After all, domestic The market is much bigger, isn't it? But it's hard to say what actual benefits our company will get from the production here, because China Television likes to keep the copyright in its hands. Even if I watch the production on-site, don’t I still have to listen to the TV station’s instructions? There are so many frauds in China. If I just want to sell the copyright, then I might as well produce it overseas.

When the time comes, I will sell the copyright back and make two profits. Jiangsu has already signed a copyright agreement with us for "The King of Masked Singer" that I produced. "

Competition programs produced by China often involve fraud. Even "The Voice"...well, Zhang Chenchen's problem was that Zhang Ping'an took the lead in the fraud. Through his mother's help, Zhang Chenchen got one. Because he knows that the TV station is linked to some brokerage companies. For a strong person, after entering some quarterfinals, if you are unwilling to sign a contract, then you will be completely reduced to a 'accompanying' person.

Of course, Zhang Pingan also knows that this is because there are funds behind the operation. If he were from the perspective of capital, he would do the same thing. Those people the program team is willing to praise are all willing to make money for themselves. If you are not willing to make money for me, then why should I praise you? What good does it do me to make you famous?

When Mr. Wang listened to Zhang Pingan's words, she frowned slightly and said, "You have no idea of ​​producing a program for the time being." In fact, what she wanted to say was, if you have no idea of ​​producing a program, then what are you doing out there? Doesn't it mean that you want to attract some market investment?

She is right to think so. If Zhang Ping'an doesn't have much background and strength and wants to get involved in the Chinese entertainment market, he will definitely need some help. After all, the entertainment industry is not that easy to get involved with.

Zhang Pingan nodded and said: "Yes, I just have no plans to come back for the time being. This release is also to show the market that I have the intention to produce programs, but I need the TV station or partners to give me some permission...otherwise I will take it." If I don't have the production rights, I might as well sell the copyright. After all, when I was a program producer in Korea, the entire program team followed my arrangements for filming, and I didn't want China's interests to be involved. , which involves my production, because what I want is the quality of the program!”

Mr. Wang laughed when she heard Zhang Pingan's words, because she felt that Zhang Pingan was still a little too naive. She smiled and said: "But in China there is no capital behind it, and the entertainment industry here is more difficult to get into than in South Korea and Japan!"

Zhang Ping'an said with a wry smile: "It's difficult to get involved in the entertainment industry of any country. But overseas capital only pursues profits, and they never point fingers at the producers. Because if the program is good, the profits will naturally come. I am very afraid of what we will meet when I am doing the program." Since I am an investor, my people have to do whatever they want. To be honest, it’s terrible to encounter such a thing, so I would rather not do it.”

Mr. Wang said with a smile: "But you are the one who eats this bowl of rice, so you say you won't do it? Isn't this too simple?... Yes, you also have a very popular live broadcast platform. Now your live broadcasts are very popular. It’s hot, isn’t it? How many shares do you have in that platform?”

Zhang Pingan responded: "I still have a lot in hand. I have been contacting buyers recently. I plan to sell the shares in my hand."

Mr. Wang said: "Oh? How many shares do you have? I know a lot of investors here. Can I help you find out?"

Zhang Ping'an smiled and gave it up and said, "No, I've been in contact with Penguin recently. It won't be next year at the latest. Sooner or later, they will take back the shares in my hands."

Everyone in China knows that there are two major companies in China that are not short of money. One is Taotao, and the other is the penguin in Zhang Pingan's mouth. Since Zhang Pingan was negotiating with Taotao, Mr. Wang didn't say much.

Mr. Wang smiled and said, "By the way, Xiao Zhang, what does your family do?"

Zhang Ping'an smiled and started investigating the background. Zhang Pingan said with a smile: "If you are interested in asking, you should be able to find out, I won't be here..." Before he finished speaking, the phone in Zhang Pingan's pocket rang.

Zhang Ping'an was slightly surprised when he saw the call from 'Fatty Di'. Because she rarely called her on weekdays, the two of them usually used "Weixin" to send messages and chat. You must know that she is also very busy at work on weekdays. In order not to disturb her work, the two of them chatted by text. is the most convenient.

Zhang Pingan picked up the phone: "Hey, why did you call me? You didn't know that I returned to China, did you?"

Fatty on the other end of the phone was very surprised when she heard Zhang Pingan said that he was back: "Oh? You went back to China? Then why didn't you send me a message when you came back?"

"I just came back today. There was something else going on here, so I didn't have time to send you a message. By the way, why did you call me during dinner time? Are you inviting me to dinner?"

Fatty smiled and said: "Hahaha, you haven't eaten? Okay, come to the Peninsula Hotel to have dinner together. Just in time, I saw the 'principal' is here."

Zhang Ping'an said doubtfully: "Peninsula? Has your TV series been completed? How come you have time to return to Shanghai?"

"It's finished. I'm preparing to shoot a movie with Sister Mimi recently. Last time, didn't you tell me to introduce Sister Mimi to you? It just so happens that Sister Mimi is also in Shanghai, so I thought of introducing you to her. "

It turns out that this is what happened. Zhang Pingan said with a smile: "That's it. Let's wait until I return to Shanghai. I'm in Yanjing now and may not return to Shanghai in a few days. Then I'll ask her to have a meal with her. . Principal...he is really...hahaha!"

Zhang Pingan knew that the principal liked Sister Mimi very much, but she was not only married, but now her children were born, so it was too late to say anything.

"Are you in Yanjing? I may go to Yanjing to film in three months."

"Three months later... I won't be living in Yanjing forever. Well, I have something else to do here that I don't want to talk to you about." After saying that, Zhang Pingan hung up the phone, and then took his mobile phone and sent Pang Di a message. News, saying that he was having dinner with Mr. Wang of Eighteen Entertainment.

When Sika listened to Zhang Ping'an answering the phone, it was a female voice speaking Chinese. She asked doubtfully: "Who is it?"

"Fatty, I met you last time at the Shilla Hotel."

Sika just said lightly: "Oh, I still have some impression."

Mr. Wang didn't find out about Zhang Ping'an's background, but she knew where she could find out, the principal's place! Although she had no connection with the principal, she knew who had a good relationship with him.

After having a simple meal with Zhang Pingan, Mr. Wang also understood Zhang Pingan's ambition to produce a program. As he said, if he wants to cooperate, the first thing he needs is the rights of the producer. Before he has the rights, he will never co-produce.

Nowadays, "Running Man", "Extreme Challenge", "Let's Fall in Love" and other Korean variety shows have achieved good results in China, and many actors have received a lot of attention as a result. Therefore, Mr. Wang is also thinking about co-production, so that his own artists can be reasonably arranged into Zhang Pingan's program. After all, people in the entertainment industry also know that they must follow the trend!
