Chapter 58: Seeking Cooperation
Shen Mengxi stayed in South Korea for half a month, and barely understood some things in the Korean entertainment industry, they really have a difference between high and low careers!
Actors, singers, comedians...
Actors have the highest status.
According to Seo In-ho's words, the actors in South Korea do not directly contact fans, nor do they rely on fans to increase ratings or box office, they completely rely on their own acting skills and the ability of directors and screenwriters...
In short, speaking with strength and putting all your energy into sharpening your acting skills or going deep into the role is very respectable in itself.
But singers are different, singers are originally a matter of orientation, relying on their own fans to make money.
In addition, most of the singers who have transformed into idols over the years are more beautiful than their strength, not that they are inferior to actors, but that their profession has a certain degree of sociality and needs to cater to the public...
General perception: Actors want to be popular by strength, and singers want to be popular by the public.
Moreover, the Korean environment is really male and inferior!
Under this premise, the unknown girl group in the mixed circle, if they want to make a living, or get a chance, they have to drink or sleep together...
Many brokers are actually in the pimping business.
Or start from pimping, through the hair girl, to achieve primitive accumulation...
The group of girls brought by Pledis Entertainment yesterday were actually from car models, probably thinking that the women's group business was better now, so they simply found several car models and formed a women's group reserve, also called trainees.
How do trainees make money?
Can't sing or dance, will you be a wine club, right?
Anyway, a total of three were arranged last night, Shen Mengxi was drunk, took one away, and the rest was packed by Chen Liming...
Thanks to Song Qian, before she came to see him, she called first...
......
"This is our president, Kim Young-min..."
"Hello, Mr. Kim. ”
Shen Mengxi shook hands with him.
This person looks mediocre, but I didn't expect to be the helmsman of SM!
No, isn't SM at the helm Lee so-man?
"These three are actors from our company, Ko Yala, Lee Yunxi and Lin Yun'e..."
"Writer Shen..."
The three girls hurriedly bowed, full of etiquette...
"Hello!"
Of these three people, Shen Mengxi knows two of them, Gao Yala, seems to have acted in "Please Answer 1994", Lin Run'e, who came to China to develop, starred in "Martial God Zhao Zilong", the smallest breasted in Girls' Generation...
That Lee Yunxi, he really hasn't seen it, but his appearance is really pure...
Retracting his gaze, Shen Mengxi accepted Jin Yingmin's invitation and came to the café next to the hotel.
Song Qian and the others followed, but they were almost invisible the whole time...
Shen Mengxi was a little unsure of Kim Youngmin's purpose...
What he said to Song Qian that day was really not a matter of words, and arranging a few small supporting roles was not difficult for him.
Isn't it, Kim Young-min is in love?
It doesn't make sense!
SM eh, how can such a large company be visited by the president because of a few small supporting roles?
"Mr. Shen's "Rose Flower Red Lotus" sold 300,000 copies last year, ranking third on our national novel list..."
"Thank you..."
Of course Shen Mengxi knew about this.
"Rose Red Lotus" sells really well in Korea!
Otherwise, it wouldn't be favored by Xijie Entertainment.
Kim Young-min continued: "Mr. Shen is really young and promising, I heard that Xijie Entertainment spent more than 10 billion won to create "Rose Flower Red Lotus" this time?"
“... It's pretty much the same, but I'm just a producer, and I'm not in charge of specific investments and the like. ”
Shen Mengxi subconsciously wanted to invest in "Rose Red Lotus" through his participation in the investment of "Rose Flower Red Lotus"...
That's too much to look up to!
Don't talk about SM, even if Shen Mengxi wanted to participate, he was clearly rejected...
If you have a clear project that will make money, why should you share it with others?
"Rose Red Lotus" is really one of the most widely circulated folk novels in South Korea, according to this story, at least five movies have been presented, and the first horror film in Korean film history is called "The Legend of Rose Red Lotus", a big IP!
"How much does Mr. Shen know about SM?"
"It's not a lot, I know HOT, TVXQ and SJ..."
He really doesn't know much, he knows HOT, TVXQ or because of "Please Answer 1997", as for SJ, it's because of Han Geng...
Kim Young-min smiled: "Actually, SM is not only committed to the music industry, we also pay attention to film and television investment!"
Is it?
"We also participated in the investment of "Ink Attack"... If we have the chance, we can work together to develop a project!"
"Of course, I will not refuse any sincere investors. ”
It's been a long time, it's about the project!
What did you think you were going to do...
......
Kim Young-min came very quickly and left very quickly.
Shen Mengxi looked at Song Qian and the three daughters, and asked Song Qian in a low voice, "Why did your president come?"
“... He asked me, I said your name, and he asked me to bring him with him..."
Song Qian is an excellent trainee, and she will definitely make her debut in the future, and when she goes out in the middle of the night, the trainee supervisor will definitely ask, but this is not enough for Jin Yingmin!
If you think about it, Kim Young-min, the president of SM, has a sea of things to worry about every day, especially JYP's Wonder Girls, who have countless fans with "Irony"...
Kim Young-min devoted himself to building the darling plan of the times, and encountered a big enemy as soon as he came up.
At this time, there is actually spare time to care about a Chinese trainee and her ex-boyfriend?
"Isn't that adding to the chaos..."
Shen Mengxi rolled her eyes at Song Qian, and she was a little embarrassed in her heart...
"Rose Red Lotus" is a family ethics thriller, the whole film revolves around those few people, and it doesn't need too many supporting roles.
What he originally thought was that Song Qian had only been in South Korea for a long time, so how many friends could he have?
At most, one or two girls of about the same age, then arrange a hospital nurse or something.
I didn't expect her to tell Kim Young-min...
Unless a few original characters...
It is also unlikely, the Korean filmmaking process is completely copied from Hollywood, and after the script is finalized, there are almost no revisions...
And Shen Mengxi doesn't really want to revise the script, the current book is already very good!
What about these three women?
was pondering, and when she looked at it again, several girls were sitting quietly, and Shen Mengxi asked Song Qian, "Aren't you going back together?"
"They're still waiting for you to arrange the role..."
"You make me think..."
"It's okay, as long as there are lines and more than ten seconds of face appearance, they will be considered to have made their movie debut!"
"That's too foolish, ten-second shot... Yo, Liming is here!"
Fat Chen staggered over, noticed the four girls around Shen Mengxi, and immediately shouted: "Don't come, don't come, I was almost squeezed dry last night..."
Song Qian turned her head: "What?"
“... Song Qian... Why are you here?"
The fat man was surprised!
"She's now a trainee at SM, and these are all hers... Friends!"
“... Aniase..."
The three girls stood up, bowed, introduced themselves, and all the way...
"Uh-huh, Eun... What are you talking about?"
The latter sentence was asked by the translator...
"Introduce yourself..."
"Hello, my name is Chen Liming, and I'm from China..."
