My girlfriend is an idol
Chapter 146-Li Xianzhe's Deal with Kim Taeho
All the money earned from this variety show went into the pockets of the TV station, and the members were only given fixed remuneration. As for PD, writers, and other behind-the-scenes staff, needless to say, there can be no less.
Referring to the several major strikes before and after MBC, the harsh treatment has allowed "Infinite Challenge" to come over for more than ten years. Few people in the program group can tell that they really like this program before they insist on doing it.
But what is helpless is that even the superficially beautiful Kim Tae-ho, when he encounters some big projects, he must respectfully rush to the top to apply for funding.
The ability to make money in this show is the first, and the ability to burn money is not bad.
It's hard to imagine that someone like Jin Tae-ho, Liu Jae-shik actually helped him invest in himself.
"Actually, when the "Unlimited Trading Company" special feature was first released, we wanted to make him into a short play or a movie. It's just that we, Brother Jun, have experience in filming. No one else, including Taeho himself. Have experience in making movies and TV shows."
In Yoo Jae-shik’s narrative, Lee Hyun-chel knew that the response from the previous seasons of "Unlimited Trading Company" was actually quite ordinary. Regardless of the acting skills of the members, more viewers criticized the program group for not doing business properly.
It is difficult for singers to take part in acting with great reputations, not to mention that they are the lowest-level comedians.
This is a very absurd thing in the eyes of the public.
"Don't talk about the others, brother, how much do you need?"
Liu Jae-shik and Kim Tae-ho were immersed in the memories of the past and almost couldn't come out, they were interrupted by Lee Hyun-cheol, but the two did not have any dissatisfaction, and they became surprised.
If it weren't for the high-levels of the TV station to repeatedly reject their funding applications, they would naturally think of attracting investment with the self-esteem of two people, but more ends must be bumping into walls.
Who would believe that the works produced by a group of variety artists can catch on.
Just like the "Unlimited Trading Company" in which GD participated in 2016, not many people were able to watch this project seriously before that, but after it was broadcast, the acting skills of the old acquaintance who was cheated by the show crew were not allowed Few people are surprised.
But... idol is idol after all, variety entertainers are variety entertainers after all, and the local film and television circles will not accept them.
So if Shin Won-ho and Lee Myung-han successfully made a bold leap from variety show PD to TV drama PD in 12 years, then the "Unlimited Trading Company" special in 16 years is Kim Tae-ho's challenge to variety short dramas that are different from the past.
Even, there is already a movie scale.
However, Li Xianzhe took a fancy to the relationship of "Infinite Challenge". He urgently needs to expand his network. A failed investment is nothing to him. If it is because of this, he can establish friendship with people like Jin Taeho and Liu Jaeshi.
In the future, the artist of his company will apply to go to "Infinite Challenge" once, and he believes that Kim Tae-ho will readily agree.
The more people who have watched this program, the more they know the influence of this program among the people. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is enough to affect national politics.
"Hey? Well, Xianzhe, don't you ask about the detailed planning content?"
Liu Jae-shik stared at Lee Xianzhe's eyes for a long time, let alone him, even Jin Taeho was frightened by his refreshing attitude.
Generally, businessmen who invest in this kind of thing are cautious when they encounter it. They need to calculate the success rate and failure rate as well as various factors that may be encountered.
Lee Hyun-cheol smiled confidently, "Is it necessary, one Liu Jae-shik and one Kim Tae-ho, this is the guarantee, but there will be suitable specials in the future, I hope my brother can let my children on the show."
Kim Tae-ho quickly said that there is no problem. If he is a PD who can't even call for an artist, Lee Hyun-cheh doesn't need to nod and agree.
"Let's talk about it, is it a special or a short play? A movie?"
Blind trust also requires some factors, either really stupid or full of self-confidence.
This kind of frankness is really... Kim Tae-ho stopped being hypocritical and parked his car on the side of the road at will.
However, the two of them immediately thought about it and they were relieved. Li Xianzhe's request was not excessive. "Infinite Challenge" rarely invites guests, unless it is a special theme, but most of them are comedy artists.
Excluding the friendship guest appearances and phone appearances, there are not many that idol participated in recording the entire issue of "Infinite Challenge".
"Actually, this is an idea created by the members when we were chatting privately. Through detailed discussions between me and the writers of the program group, it is only a preliminary concept, and it has not been decided whether it is a short drama or a special. The content is to bring together former singers and get empathy from people.
The executives of MBC have a lot of ideas about this idea, but...from the guests invited, the advertising costs, and the funds that need to be invested, the people above have been hesitant.
Without funding, we can't start preparations."
Gathering the former singers together, Li Xianzhe's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he clenched his fist and slammed it on his palm.
Such an action is equal to a final word.
"Brother Taeho, in Brother Shi, this project allows me to invest, but I want to do it in another way."
He was convinced that the project Kim Tae-ho said was 100% "Saturday and Saturday, I am a singer special."
Among the special episodes of "Infinite Challenge" in recent years, this is a rare classic. The resonance is the biggest feeling after watching this special.
However, for the guest lineup of the first season, Li Xianzhe is actually somewhat indifferent.
In general, he felt that the first season lacked a central character, of course, after all, this is a new special, no one knows whether this special will succeed before then.
Li Xianzhe also remembers that the program team and members invited many seniors who were active in the 90s during the filming, but most of them shied away for various reasons.
To put it bluntly, I am watching...
But what is positive is that, starting from the "Saturday and Saturday, I'm a Singer" special episode of the first season, all the guests who successfully stepped onto this stage started the second spring of their acting career to varying degrees.
SES merged successfully, Jinusean also merged, Turbo also reorganized...
So that during that time, many fans of previous artists emerged on the Internet, hoping that those older artists who were not very active in the circle would reappear in the public eye.
It is said that if there is demand, there must be a market. Therefore, in the second season, the Crystal Boys merged and reorganized successfully.
The idea of "Saturday and Saturday are singers" the members put together was completely inspired by their own value.
Although, feelings will slowly fade with the passage of time, and people only need it when they need it.
Relying on previous works to eat money, if you don't release new good works, you can't survive. This kind of environmental law is much more cruel than Huaxia.
"Change the way? What do you mean?"
Li Xianzhe moisturized his throat, just about to speak, but keenly noticed that there seemed to be something staring around here.
I gently shook the window and saw many people gathered in this area with their mobile phones through the cracks.
