My Entertainment Circle

Zhang Ping'an's words were very straightforward, Chi Guo. Because ‘Stellar’ initially enjoyed a wave of Sexy’s dividends, but the subsequent success of the team’s transformation was not followed. Coupled with their 'MV' at that time and the dance moves in it...it can be said that it broke the bottom line. If you want to continue to explore the bottom, you can only shoot those "19-banned art films" in South Korea.

Of course, none of them chose to completely give it a go. Song Ji Hyo, and later Lim Ji Yeon, etc., only chose to give it a go in the hands of great directors, just like Tang Wei. But the problem is that those art films made by top directors, to be honest... they really don't get their turn. Even if you want to give it a try, but you can't find a suitable director, do you really want to make some third-rate art films by third-rate directors?

If this was the case, they would feel unwilling to do so. If he is a top director, he might actually have some ideas. But the films produced by those bad third-rate directors in South Korea...haha, they are really weak compared to the island country next door.

So Zhang Ping'an gave Zhu Minxi the most straightforward advice, your contract is coming soon, so don't think about continuing to perform on stage. Think about the most realistic side, let yourself survive in the city of Seoul first!

After Zhang Pingan gave the advice, he continued: "The competition in this circle is very cruel, but the friendship formed by your members is also very warm. I have seen some groups with individual members developing very well, but Gradually, the members began to squeeze out each other because of the income issue! After all, they were in the same team, but the income difference was too big. One earned 300 million a year, and the other earned 30 million, so dissatisfaction gradually developed in my heart."

What Zhang Pingan said is actually very clear to them as a girl group. When we all worked hard together when we were not famous, and everyone relied on each other, the relationship of this team will be very strong. Even if the team disbands in the future and everyone goes their separate ways, the 'love' that has been accumulated will continue.

Only when team members have their own economic interests involved, conflicts slowly emerge. After one month, two months, or one year, if your salary is at the top of the team, and the remaining members only have a little bit of music content, the other members with lower incomes will definitely gradually create an imbalance. .

Zhu Minxi nodded and said: "Perhaps, the last few years have left us... the only thing left is the sisterhood of our team. Some time ago, our group had many activities, many Fans thought we made a lot of money. In fact, we have never made a formal settlement. After so many years, the money we got in hand, when we released the song "Puppets", totaled 10 million. . Seven years, ten million."

Zhu Minxi talked about the hard time of their group, and that they only settled 10 million won in seven years, and this was because during that time, their team had a lot of commercial activities. However, their commercial performance prices are too low.

Seven years, 10 million won, really not even as good as doing odd jobs. If the agency hadn't provided them with dormitories, they really wouldn't know how they could survive in Seoul.

Jiaying, another team member, said with a bitter smile: "We used to only eat chili sauce bean sprouts with rice or ramen in the dormitory for a week."

Bean sprouts are only 100 won per bag in Korean supermarkets. A five-pack of Shin Ramyun can be purchased for 3,000 won when there is a supermarket discount. It can be said that they have lived the cheapest life in a certain period of time.

Zhang Ping'an smiled and said: "There is a part of hard work in my memory, and I understand how difficult those 'successes' are. Many fans look at the idols on the stage and always feel that they live a very comfortable life just because they are dressed brightly. of.

However, success is not as easy as imagined. It is the same in all walks of life. Even the managers of many companies may have graduated from Seoul University, but they only achieved it by studying hard in high school. Exchange opportunities for a future. "

Zhang Pingan continued to narrate: "It is not very popular in Korea to talk about 'SKY' Seoul University, Korea University, and Yonsei University. However, students who graduate from these universities only have an opportunity to interview in large companies. Because in 'Seoul' There are also some from the Ivy League in the United States or from Cambridge in the UK. In terms of academic qualifications, there are more advanced talents than in Seoul. But is there really that much demand for jobs in a large company? In other words Imagine how many graduates there are from 'SKY' in South Korea every year? How can success be so easy?"

What Zhang Pingan said made the two of them a little confused. Aren't you talking about something else? Why did the good topic turn to employment issues?

Zhang Ping'an looked at the two people's indifferent expressions, he smiled and said: "I'm just saying recognize the reality and choose a way that suits you. Of course, if your family can help your career development, that would be even better. But no. If you can’t, then choose the one you are best at. I believe that you have become very experienced in communicating with idols and fans for so many years, so my suggestion is that you can really consider moving towards online live broadcasting. To develop. Especially Zhu Minxixi, who has good appearance and good figure. Such people are very popular in online live broadcasts."

Zhu Minxi nodded and said, "Well, if no other brokerage companies contact me after saving, I will consider PD Zhang's suggestion."

Zhang Pingan smiled and nodded: "Okay, is there anything else?" Zhang Pingan said, looking at his closed computer, indicating that he still had other work to do next. Finish.

Seeing Zhang Pingan's actions, the two of them nodded clearly and said, "No, no more. Thank you, PD Zhang's coffee. By the way, here's the change." After saying that, Zhu Minxi returned the change to Zhang Pingan. .

Zhang Pingan put away the change, then took out his mobile phone, unlocked it, and handed it to Zhu Minxi: "Enter your number and give it to me."

"Okay." After Zhu Minxi entered the number, the two bowed to Zhang Pingan and said goodbye and left.

After leaving a long distance, Jiaying turned to look at Zhu Minxi and said: "Minxi, PD Zhang, what is your number... do you plan to sign you after your contract expires?"

Zhu Minxi shook her head and said, "I don't know. No one can guess what PD Zhang is thinking."

Of course, Zhu Minxi is very much looking forward to Zhang Pingan's invitation to sign a contract with her. You must know that Zhang Pingan has two agencies in his hands, one is Mamamu and the other is BTS. These are definitely two very powerful groups in the Korean music industry. Of course, the most important thing is that Zhang Pingan’s agency also invests heavily in Korean films and TV dramas! If you have the opportunity to sign with his company, it would be a good idea to transform into an actor.

Dreams are definitely good, but Zhang Pingan just left a number at random. Because he knew that Zhu Minxi would still have great income potential after becoming a host in the future, and Korean media had reported that her income from live broadcasts in one night exceeded her income from the group.

.......

After the two left, Zhang Pingan turned on the computer and continued to write plans. Zhang Pingan spent the whole afternoon sitting in the outdoor cafe on the boulevard, and many people passing by saw him. There were even people doing outdoor live broadcasts with their mobile phones. They all picked up their mobile phones and filmed him for a while. They were just Korean anchors, and no one came up to disturb Zhang Pingan's work.

After all, Zhang Ping'an didn't have time to manage those people who were pointing their mobile phones at him. He concentrated on writing about the planning of "Sad Travel". This planning is very simple. In fact, it only requires three or four photographers, as well as a radio and a lighting engineer to follow. Because he was going overseas for filming, Zhang Pingan was thinking about hiring two security guards?

After writing the program creation, night is almost falling here in Seoul. At dusk at the end, a bright moon and some stars appeared in the sky.

Zhang Ping'an took out his mobile phone and called Pei Zhuxuan. The call was connected. After a few rings, Pei Zhuxuan's voice appeared: "PD Zhang, long time no see."

Zhang Ping'an said: "Come out for dinner and ask your manager to come with you. Children... just come too. Cheongdam-dong 'KOREA.HOUSE'."

What Zhang Pingan mentioned was the top grilled Korean beef restaurant near Cheongdam-dong. The main reason is that it has private rooms, but the price is a bit expensive. Bae Zhuhyun on the other end of the phone said in surprise: "Oh? Do you want to eat Korean beef?"

Zhang Pingan said: "Have you finished playing songs?"

Bae Zhuhyun said: "Well, it's over. I will notify my agent right now."

"Well, you guys just come over here, I'm going to the restaurant now."

After Zhang Pingan hung up the phone, he set off from the coffee towards the restaurant. After Pei Zhuxuan hung up the phone with Zhang Pingan, she said to the children who were preparing dinner: "Children, PD Zhang, call us and ask us to go out to eat Korean beef."

Wendy immediately said: "Dafa, I always feel that when PD Zhang asked us to go out for dinner this time, he was probably telling us about the program's problems."

Jin Yilin smiled and said: "Absolutely, he promised us to produce a troupe variety show for us in the second half of the year. Isn't this the second half of the year?"

"I'm really looking forward to it. PD Zhang will do such a good job this time."

At this time, Pei Zhuhyun took out the phone and dialed her agent: "Oppa, PD just called me and asked us to go to Cheongdamdong for barbecue. Come and pick us up... oh?" Huh? Got it, then let’s take a taxi there ourselves, uh, uh.”
