My Entertainment Circle

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 calls 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 complain. It can only be broadcast on tvN!”

Yes, Zhang Pingan’s problem 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 drank a toast to 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 again next time."

Luo Yingshi smiled and pointed to the editing computer: "How about you edit an episode? I'll take a rest?"

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 to assign 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 actually don't 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 films!" 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 email address, 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,

Anyway, it’s a matter of label occlusion. In fact, there is no need to discuss sponsorship with manufacturers, just let them spend some money to "display their trademarks". The last time I made "Battle of the Rivers and Lakes", I asked the manufacturer to buy the 'trademark'. Of course it would be best if it could be sponsored. "Soy sauce, the most commonly used condiment in South Korea, has many brands. There will always be a manufacturer willing to spend some money to show their trademark in food programs.

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 said immediately: "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 the time being. 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, the brand of kitchenware...he He’s an expert!”

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

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 "S.M.T.M.4" they posted. This HipHop program achieved great ratings success last season, and then Zhang Pingan produced a women's RAP survival show, and the ratings soared accordingly. 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!

In addition, some RAPs are deliberately showing off their wealth, or something else, and all kinds of luxury brands have appeared on them. Driving a luxury car, living in a luxury house, etc. are all disclosed in the program. The most bizarre thing is that someone disclosed their annual income last year. Stimulated by the sight of money and fame, more people want to become rappers, because idols dare not show off their wealth, but independent rappers dare!

Looking at the promotional posters posted everywhere, Zhang Ping'an smiled and shook his head. He didn't come here this time to see what history they said this program would create. Yes, Zhang Pingan knew that their audition activities had officially begun, and the filming of the show had also begun. After all, the reports had come out, and it would not be an exaggeration to describe the audition scene as a sea of ​​people.

With the popularity of the hiphop genre, this group of singers who originally lived underground have gradually become mainstream, even trendy, in Korea! !

Zhang Ping'an came to the Variety Show Bureau and saw that it was still busy here. Yes, it has been very busy recently because the music station produces too many programs, not just this one talent show!

While busy, a staff member saw Zhang Ping'an standing in the passage: "PD Zhang, why are you here?"

"I See Your Voice" just finished its first season two days ago, and the ratings of the show are quite perfect. But everyone in the station knows that the program team has already begun preparations for the production of the second season, and many overseas countries have discussed the introduction of the program with Zhang Pingan. Zhang Pingan has really made a lot of money with this "Kan Sheng".

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

Only top producers like Zhang Pingan dare to go to the director's office so casually, right? If it was a PD from a program with low ratings, who would go to the director's office to ask for trouble?

Zhang Ping'an went through many program groups, and even passed through the "Kansheng" program group before coming to the director's office. Under the leadership of his 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, why are you free to come sit here today? Xiao Li, go and pour PD Zhang a cup of coffee."

Zhang Pingan stopped and said, "No, I drank a lot at tvN. Just give me a bottle of mineral water."

The secretary got Zhang Pingan a bottle of water and then exited the office. Zhang Pingan put down the iPad in his hand, opened 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 to change the situation at the TV station!"

Zhang Pingan's words made the director confused and said: "Change the situation of the TV station? What situation?"

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

The director's eyes lit up when he heard this, but he soon lost his temper and said: "You are talking about a long time ago when the TV station was still dictatorial. At that time, all the artists had to cooperate with the TV station to work. But now the times are different. It’s the same, with the emergence of online self-media, TV stations can no longer monopolize, so the agencies that control the ‘artists’ have become the market leaders.”

Zhang Ping'an smiled and nodded and said: "I know that the impact of the Internet has had a certain impact on TV stations, but it has not yet reached the point of replacing it, right? There are many good TV series or TV programs that everyone would rather watch in front of the TV. It’s the first broadcast. Because you can only watch the live broadcast and talk to the 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 in a brokerage company. Are you going to ruin your job?"

Zhang Ping'an's legs crossed, and then he said with a bad smile: "In the face of absolute interests, nothing can't be broken. Just like the conflict between your station and S.M. was so serious, it was resolved in the end. . Because whether it’s the agency, us businessmen, or your TV station, everyone is pursuing profit!”
