Chapter 137 Yoona’s male god, the boss’ wool
Script writing is very different from writing novels.
Writing novels can be more casual and detailed from many different angles, thereby enhancing the sense of immersion and making the characters and the entire story more complete.
The most important thing in script creation is the sense of the shot.
The screenwriter must stand from God’s perspective and use words to clearly present the picture in his imagination.
Zhou Yutang has been writing the script "My Love from the Star" intermittently, and now it is finally completed.
After doing this, Zhou Yutang suddenly felt that his thoughts were clear, and he drank the water on the table that was no longer so cold.
Although the overall operation of the screenwriting department at the studio is in good condition, and the second and third seasons of "Classmates" are doing very well, some important scripts are still written by Zhou Yutang himself.
Opening the refrigerator in the room, Zhou Yutang took a bottle of champagne and prepared to have a drink.
This trip was arranged by KBS TV station.
I booked the highest-standard presidential suite at the Shilla Hotel, a subsidiary of Samsung Chaebol, with all kinds of pleasures and facilities.
The three-star princess is a wonderful person.
On the garden hill below the hotel, a list of Chinese leaders who have stayed in the hotel has been established.
Standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window on the 22nd floor, Zhou Yutang looked out the window with a wine glass.
Everything seems small.
the next day.
A nanny van was parked downstairs of SM Company.
Zhou Yutang walked out of the car and looked up at the not particularly majestic building in front of him.
Several people in suits and leather shoes, both men and women, were waiting at the door of the company.
Listening to Song Qian's respectful titles of "room chief" and "section chief", you know that she is equivalent to a manager or something like that.
"Hello, Mr. Zhou!"
One of the well-dressed middle-aged men took the initiative to shake hands.
After Song Qian’s introduction, I learned that this person is the director of the artist management department, named Han Shenghao.
"Hello, Chief Han."
Zhou Yutang nodded slightly.
Han Shenghao's attitude was very respectful: "The president has important matters. Today, Song Qian will mainly take you to visit our SM company."
As he was walking towards the SM building, Zhou Yutang turned around and saw a A truck was parked outside the company. The truck was equipped with a screen, and lines of large characters appeared on it.
"What are you doing?"
Zhou Yutang paused slightly, and Room Chief Han and the people around him suddenly looked embarrassed.
Song Qian came over and explained in a low voice: "This is made by Girls' Generation's Anti Rice. They rented a big truck and parked it downstairs in the company to protest."
And this operation?
Zhou Yutang was eye-opening.
Anti rice is the general term for black fans here.
The large screen in the car was filled with various protest slogans against Girls’ Generation members.
While walking and chatting with Song Qian, Zhou Yutang heard about more outrageous actions of black fans.
Compare that to adding super glue to your annoying idol's drink, carrying razor blades to shake hands at fan meetings, or just sending dead rats into your home
Those domestic trolls who bang on the keyboard can be considered kind and cute.
Zhou Yutang suddenly remembered something and asked: "Girls' Generation has been in a bad situation recently, right?"
"Well, it is very difficult because many fans boycotted and the company suspended the seniors. Song-making activities, preparing to release the next album next year.”
I happened to go to the celebrity peripheral products area of SM Company.
There are many celebrity peripheral products here. Zhou Yutang took Zhang Yoona's card and said, "Bring me a pen, I will write something to Yoona."
"Senior, Do you still know senior Yoona from SNSD?" Song Qian looked surprised.
“Of course, the last time I came to South Korea for an event, Yoona and I sang together.”
Zhou Yutang quickly wrote a message of support behind Lin Yoona’s photo card, specifically using The ribbon was tied into a knot and handed to Song Qian: "Please help me give it to Yoona."
She is still my little crush, so I need some encouragement.
"Senior is really a good person."
Song Qian handed out a good person card with emotion, suddenly took out a poster from her pocket, and said a little coyly: "Well. I have a roommate. , I am also a fan of yours. Can you sign this poster for me later? She is still practicing.”
“Don’t call me senior from now on, just call me Yu Tang. Give me the poster.”
“Who is the handsome guy who came to the company today?”
"Could it be that he is a new guy who joined the company? He is really, really handsome."
"Ah, you don't even recognize Li Ziwei, the handsome guy who was very popular last year?"
"Then But he is an idol who redefines handsomeness. I heard that Mr. Lee Soo Man invited me to visit the company, but it’s a pity that I didn’t get an autograph or a photo!”
Trainer Kang Seulgi’s eyes were shining.
“Is it really him? I met him downstairs in the company today. He was accompanied by several office directors, so I didn’t dare to look more.”
Pei Zhuxuan opened her mouth slightly, with a look of shock on her face.
There were whispers in SM’s practice room, and Zhou Yutang’s appearance became the center of the conversation.
After the visit, Song Qian returned to the practice room to practice. Seeing how popular Zhou Yutang was, as a compatriot, she felt a sense of pride and deep admiration in her heart.
This senior friend of hers is really the most powerful person of her age she has ever met.
It is quite incredible that it can have such great influence in South Korea.
"Crystal, I got the autograph for you."
"Wow, Dafa, sister, you are so good."
The girl named Crystal looks delicate, wearing sportswear, and has a good figure Slender, with long legs.
It seemed that he had just finished dancing, and he ran over happily without wiping the sweat off his face. He took the signed poster and looked at it again and again. He held it in his arms and his smiling eyes were bent into cute shapes. arc moon.
“I want to stick it on the bedside of the bedroom.”
Little Crystal pulled Song Qian and asked curiously: "Sister, you have met Zhou Yutang twice. Is he as handsome as he looks on TV in real life?"
"Well, he is much more handsome than on TV. "
Song Qian pondered for a while and gently wiped the sweat from her forehead with a towel: "He also encouraged us to train hard and wish us a successful debut in the future!"
< br>"Wow, he is really a god of men!"
"Crystal, you practice first, I have something to do with Yoona."
"Yeah, tell my sister, I'm going to treat you to a barbecue dinner tonight!"
Little Crystal, who was in a state of excitement because she got a signed poster from Zhou Yutang, was very grand.
Her real name is Zheng Xiujing, and her English name is Krystal. She was the roommate assigned by the company after Song Qian came to SM as a trainee.
The two people take care of each other in life and have a very good relationship.
After saying a few words to Little Crystal, Song Qian walked towards the practice room upstairs.
They are trainees who have not yet debuted, but Girls' Generation is a member of a group that has successfully debuted, and they do not practice in the same practice room.
I found Song Qian looking at the door of the practice room. In the junior practice room, a girl with a slightly cold appearance walked over slowly,
"It's Song Qian. "What's the matter?"
"Senior Sika, Crystal said I'm going to treat you to a barbecue dinner tonight."
"Ah, is this little guy hiding behind my back again?" Pocket money?”
Jessica's eyebrows were raised, looking like she was a big sister. Song Qian chuckled and said, "Is Senior Yoona here?"
"Do you have anything to do with Yoona?"
"Well, a senior asked me to give her something important."
"Oh, it couldn't be another love letter to express my love."
Jessica shook her head. : "There's really nothing we can do about those guys. Yoona has gone out for a trip. I'll bring it back for you, but Yoona will probably throw it away."
Lin Yoona has been in a very low mood recently.
As the face of Girls’ Generation.
She is the most popular in the group and also has many negative fans.
The group debuted for more than a year, but their development was not smooth. Wondergirls was pressing down on them, and the journey was quite bumpy.
I encountered the Black Sea several times during my recent stage performance.
The so-called Black Sea.
Many fans of other idols or groups have united to boycott Girls’ Generation.
When performing on SNSD’s stage, they turned off the support lights together, making the stage become a sea of black.
Currently, SM Entertainment has suspended Girls' Generation's singing activities and only retained some personal schedules, hoping to cool down the situation and allow them to prepare for their next album "Gee".
The nine members of Girls' Generation suffered such a blow, and their mentality was on the verge of collapse.
Lin Yoona was lying on the sofa in the dormitory, holding her head in her hands, watching TV programs boredly, feeling that everything was boring.
Jessica put on a facial mask and walked to the living room, took out a card with a bow and handed it over: "Yooner, Song Qian said that a senior gave you a gift, who is it? "Senior, can you confess?"
"Oh?"
Lin Yuner weakly took the card, opened the bow, and took a look.
A very beautiful line of regular Chinese characters.
"The ideal is very far away. It is a bumpy road that we have to walk on step by step. Come on, Lin Yuner - Zhou Yutang." After seeing the last name, Lin Yuner jumped up from the sofa in an instant, and her original powerless look disappeared.
Looking at Lin Yoona sitting up straight, her clear deer eyes suddenly widened with unspeakable surprise. Jessica was so frightened that her mask fell off,
“Yooner, what’s wrong with you?”
“Sister Sika, this is what Song Qian asked you to hand over, right?”
"Yes, she specially found the practice room today. You were running outside, so I brought it back to you."
"Thank you."
Lin Yoona looked at this picture over and over again A signed card is like a treasure.
Lin Yoona, who has passed the Intermediate Chinese Test, can understand the meaning of this sentence.
It was as if that gentle voice that could soothe a wounded heart rang in her ears, and a warm current emerged from her body.
Lin Yuner's eyes gradually became moist.
"Sister Shuang, how about we set up an idol department in our studio in the future?"
After visiting SM company, we returned to the hotel to talk about business, and Li Shuang quickly returned to his professionalism. : "You want to start a girl group?"
"Sister Shuang, what you said is ambiguous and can easily be misunderstood."
Zhou Yutang's expression twitched: "It's not a girl group. , is the management of a girl group. Do you know how much money TVXQ makes to Sm Company?”
I went to SM Company. First, Song Qian showed me around, and then I listened to the nonsense of the room managers.
He probably has an idea.
Pei Yun interjected: "The album Dongshen released in Japan in the first half of this year brought at least 150 million in revenue to SM, not counting the concerts."
" It’s not just about making money, it’s also about influence.”
“It seems that it can really be done.”
Li Shuang pondered for a long time before speaking.
Zhou Yutang heard from Pei Yun about the abnormal aspects of entertainment company contracts in South Korea.
Not only do you get very low commissions.
In addition, the various training expenses before the artist debuts, as well as the company's publicity and promotion expenses are all counted on the artist himself.
This is a confusing account.
Isn't it the company that has the final say on the amount of this money?
TVX is popular throughout Asia. As a result, each of their group earns an estimated several million per year.
According to Pei Yun's gossip, some people in TVXQ want to run away with the bucket.
Zhou Yutang discussed with Li Shuang and Pei Yun for a while, and felt more and more that this project was feasible.
On the one hand, it can create revenue; on the other hand, it can also increase the influence of the studio.
certainly.
The idea is good, but in practice it is not that easy.
Pei Yundao: "The most popular girl group in South Korea is JYP's WonderGirls. They have already entered the North American market, but even SM's Girls' Generation project failed. It is not that easy to operate"< br>
“No rush.”
Zhou Yutang smiled calmly: “Sister Yun, as my representative, you will first participate in KBS’s “The Voice” program, and then slowly understand the operation of this aspect. , wait until the time is right before operating.”
That's how he always does things.
Plan before taking action and never fight an unprepared battle.
KBS, one of the three major television stations in South Korea.
Not only is it a state-owned institution funded and supported by the South Korean Broadcasting Bureau, it is also the TV station with the highest qualifications and ratings, and its status is similar to China’s CCTV.
Zhou Yutang's debut film "Want to See You" was broadcast on this TV station. The response was extremely enthusiastic and attracted him many South Korean fans.
However, in recent years, SBS TV station has also gained momentum, and has successively released several hit TV series.
After hearing from an insider there that they were interested in contacting a Chinese company to purchase the South Korean regional rights to "The Voice," KBS's top brass decided to take the first step.
Winning this national-level music variety show in China.
The deputy director of KBS led Zhou Yutang out of the conference room of the KBS building and took the initiative to shake hands with him: "Mr. Zhou, it is our honor to cooperate with you. I hope your people can come over soon. , We want to start recording the program as soon as possible.”
The South Korean copyright of the Good Voice program was sold for 2 million, plus a 10% program dividend, and this dividend will fluctuate depending on the program’s ratings.
The deputy director of KBS feels that it is very profitable.
Zhou Yutang also felt that it was not a loss.
However, once the cooperation is concluded, Mingjie Company still needs to send members of the program production team to guide KBS in completing the recording of the program.
Zhou Yutang nodded slightly: "We have notified the country. I wonder if I can visit the film and television and variety show departments of KBS?"
"Of course, please."
The deputy director's eyes lit up slightly and he took the initiative to lead the way.
Different from China, the status of screenwriters in South Korea is very high. In many cases, TV stations fund well-known screenwriters to write scripts. The screenwriter can even decide whether an actor is suitable to star in his work, and it is filmed and broadcast at the same time. , plot adjustments will be made based on audience feedback.
The directors in China have more say, and there are also big-name actors who will even bring their own screenwriters into the group to add scenes for themselves.
To briefly understand the operation of the TV drama department here, Zhou Yutang’s main focus is on the variety show department.
The deputy director took the initiative to introduce with a strong and proud tone: "Our KBS's "Two Days and One Night" is now the well-deserved ace variety show in China."
Zhou Yutang asked Li Shuang to do his homework before he came.
The outdoor variety show "Two Days and One Night" here is really good.
The program aims to "experience the wildlife and travel to beautiful places in South Korea" as its purpose, and has successfully become a well-known variety show in South Korea. The specific format is simple.
At the beginning, several MCs who participated in the show were left somewhere.
Want to have dinner?
Want to sleep well?
Everyone needs to accept and complete the task. The winner can enjoy the fruits of victory, while the loser can only watch from the side.
This creates a very strong conflict and can also create laughter.
The ratings of "Two Days and One Night" prove the audience of outdoor variety shows. The first season directly created a ratings miracle on South Korean TV, achieving an average ratings of more than 40%, and the highest segment ratings of more than 50%. Rate.
In other words, almost half of the people in a country have watched it.
Zhou Yutang, accompanied by the deputy director of KBS, had a meal with Na Yingshi, the director of the "Two Days and One Night" program, and several main MCs Jiang Hodong, Lee Soo-geun, Eun Ji-won and others.
Back at the hotel, Zhou Yutang called Tian Ming: "Brother Ming, "The Voice" has been negotiated. When you ask people from the company to come over, pay attention to carefully inspect the production of "Two Days and One Night" Process."
"Do you want to buy the copyright of this show?"
"No need, I think there will be a market for outdoor variety shows in the future. Let's check it out in advance and make our own outdoor variety show in the future. ”
“Okay, I’ll arrange it.”
Zhou Yutang and Tian Ming had a brief communication on the phone.
I have to say.
In terms of variety shows, South Korean Bangzi is indeed at the forefront of Asia.
The "Love Letter" variety show in previous years was also popular in Asia, but Zhou Yutang feels that this "Two Days and One Night" has more to watch.
The first is to go from indoors to outdoors, breaking away from the fixed routine of the original indoor variety show. While the space is more open, the program mode is also more diversified, giving the audience a strong sense of freshness.
Outdoor variety shows are definitely the next code for ratings.
Grasp this key, and in the next ten years, domestic variety shows will be dominated by Zhou Yutang!
After staying in South Korea for three days, Zhou Yutang flew directly back to the capital.
Leave things over there to Pei Yun. He received a call from Han Sanping this time and hurried back to participate in the film's post-production.
I don’t know where the media reporters learned about his itinerary, but they were blocked directly at the airport:
"Zhou Yutang, how do you feel about winning two Golden Horse Awards?"
"No special feelings, maybe I am lucky."
"I heard that you are going to South Korea this time. You have reached a cooperation with KBS TV station. Can you disclose the cooperation project? "
"We cannot disclose it for the time being. "
"The box office of "Mei Lanfang" and "Ip Man" released at the same time is expected to break the box office. Yi, which one are you more optimistic about? ”
"They are all good movies."
"China Film has announced its most important film project next year, "The Founding of the People's Republic of China." I heard that you will participate in it. What do you want to say?"
"It's my honor."
After finally breaking out of the siege, Zhou Yutang breathed a sigh of relief.
Let Sister Shuang go back to the studio to handle things first, and go straight to China Film Group.
This time, the post-production of "The Lonely Agent" was done by China Film Group. Han Sanping also participated in the post-production of the film and was very satisfied with the quality of the film "The Lonely Agent".
But the rough cut of the entire film lasted for more than three hours, so appropriate cuts must be made.
Han Sanping is also a drunkard who does not care about drinking. He is very interested in his cooperation with South Korea's KBS. After learning about the cooperation content, he patted Zhou Yutang on the shoulder,
"Yes, I have done it before. We brought it in from the outside, and now we export it, and you did a good job."
I feel more and more satisfied with Zhou Yutang, just like Liu Bei to Zhuge Wolong, and Han Sanping feels that he should also do something. Represents:
"Yu Tang, just go ahead and do it. If you have any difficulties to solve in the future, don't worry, just ask them."
"Mr. Han, I really need your help with a little thing."
"You said."
"Do you still have the tea leaves from last time?"
"."
