Chapter 1282 - Dangerous Occupation
Zhao Fusheng's original perception of the Korean film and television industry is similar to that of Hong Kong Island, that is, he brought funds over to directly invest in a movie script or TV series script, and then cooperated.
But now it seems that if you do that, you will either be treated as a wronged leader, and others will cheat you for a sum of money. Either that, you will simply be turned away from the table and not even eligible to play at the table.
This is very realistic, because Koreans have always been xenophobic, Zhao Fusheng remembers that a member of a male idol group from China who will debut in South Korea this year was on stage because of his Chinese identity, and even had to wear a mask to be able to go on stage, which was even excluded and even suppressed within the group.
Since this is the case, Zhao Fusheng feels that he should put aside the idea of directly investing in the film and television industry in South Korea for the time being.
In this way, his goal is only Korean idol agency and variety show production company.
I have to admit that the strategic planning department of the future group really impressed Zhao Fusheng.
At the very least, in this information in his hand, not only lists the largest entertainment companies in South Korea today, but also lists their current business conditions and main combinations in detail, of course, most of these information are public, but for Zhao Fusheng, a layman, it is enough.
Of course, in terms of variety show production, there is relatively little news, but it seems that most of today's Korean variety show production is dominated by TV stations.
Moreover, in the report, the Strategic Planning Department predicts that South Korea's variety shows may usher in an outbreak, which is likely to change the pattern of Korean variety shows today.
When the world has opened its arms, there are still people who are standing still.
Nowadays, Korean stars want to become popular, and the old mysterious route is no longer suitable, and they need to expose themselves in various variety shows.
In other words, those Korean idols need many funny artists to accompany them.
But here's the problem, South Korea's entertainment industry is highly hierarchical, with movie actors, TV drama actors, singers, funny artists, models, and artists ranked in the order of their debut, as well as their careers.
It's hard to imagine, but it's there.
For example, seniors who debuted early can arbitrarily instruct their juniors to do anything, even slap and insult them. What's more, many times, when participating in the show, you also have to look at the faces of your predecessors.
Not to mention the contract in the Korean entertainment industry, the deadline of more than ten years is not mentioned at every turn, and the share that artists can get is also extremely low, and many idol singers even work hard for a year, and at the end of the year, they don't earn as much as office workers.
In the eyes of the Mirai Group's Strategic Planning Department, this is very unreasonable.
So they came to the conclusion that maybe in the near future, there will be a big mess in the Korean entertainment industry.
Although this idea seems a bit bold now, from the perspective of Zhao Fusheng's traveler, it is a very correct inference.
Because just a few years later, a lot of things really happened in the Korean entertainment industry.
Not only were the artists exposed to slave contracts and turned against the agency, but there were even female artists who were forced by the company to be call girls and even committed suicide. What's more, the Mi Rabbit operation more than ten years later has exposed the unspoken rules of sexual harassment that have always existed in the Korean entertainment industry.
All in all, in Zhao Fusheng's view, the Korean entertainment industry is actually darker and more chaotic than the domestic entertainment industry, but Koreans have always liked to cover the cover, and naturally they cover it up a little better.
But no matter what, looking at this information in his hand, Zhao Fusheng already has a clear understanding of today's Korean entertainment industry, and in connection with the scales and half-claws he remembered in his previous life, he probably outlined the situation of the Korean entertainment industry today.
"Well, it seems that I still have to deal with Li Xiuman, that old fox. Zhao Fusheng muttered to himself.
Zhao Fusheng doesn't know much about the existence of this so-called godfather of the Korean entertainment industry, but in his impression, he seems to be very good at packaging artists, and he can always build his artists into first-class idol stars.
Of course, such a person naturally has a mixed reputation, some people say that he is a tyrant and likes to beat up the artists under the company, and some people say that he is a miracle maker, and when the company is in a desperate situation, he can always launch a new group of artists to save the company's development.
But for Zhao Fusheng, he felt that he was a qualified businessman.
A qualified businessman is undoubtedly the collaborator that Zhao Fusheng hopes to see the most.

........................
No one knows where Zhao Fusheng chose the first stop of his trip to South Korea.
May 10th, fine.
On the flight from the capital to Seoul, South Korea, Zhao Fusheng sat in the cabin of business class, silently looking out the window at the white clouds.
Just in early January of this year, South Korea's capital, Seoul, was officially renamed Seoul. The person who planned this incident is named Lee Myung-bak, who was formally arrested by the South Korean prosecutor's office in 2018.
Well, he is engaged in one of the most dangerous professions in the world, the president of South Korea.
It is also interesting to say that none of the previous presidents of South Korea can start and finish well, even if they retire during their tenure, they will be liquidated in the end, which can be called one of the most dangerous professions in the whole world.
Of course, no one except Cho Fusheng knew that Roh Moo-hyun, who had just been president of South Korea for three years, would be impeached a few years later and commit suicide by jumping off a cliff. The successors, Lee Myung-bak and Ms. Park, could not escape prison.
"The Blue House Curse. ”
Zhao Fusheng muttered to himself.
"What are you talking about?" At this time, Dong Chenxi's voice sounded from Zhao Fusheng's side, the business class of this flight was all wrapped by the people of the Future Group, in addition to the staff of Future Investment, and then the eight bodyguards of the Future Security Company and a group of people from the Strategic Planning Headquarters, in Dong Chenxi's words, this is to travel with the boss, and the money that should be spent cannot be saved.
Of course, this is Zhao Fusheng's initiative, because this time he went to South Korea to open up the market, and he also hopes that these people around him can do their best for themselves.
"I'm saying that being president in South Korea is a pretty risky thing to do. Zhao Fusheng smiled and told Dong Chenxi the story of the Blue House curse, of course, he skipped the people after Roh Moo-hyun, and only talked about the fate of the previous presidents.
But even these things stunned Dong Chenxi.
No way, although the Internet began to develop at this time, and information was not as closed as before, but no one really counted this thing.
But seeing that what Zhao Fusheng said was conclusive, Dong Chenxi felt that his words should not be a joke.
"But, this is too unreliable, isn't it?" Blinking his eyes, Dong Chenxi said a little ridiculously: "According to what you say, who else wants to be this president?"
Zhao Fusheng smiled: "The hustle and bustle of the world is all for profit, for some people, as long as they can become the president who holds the authority of a country, even if it is only for a few years, it is enough." Don't forget, there's so much to cover. ”
Dong Chenxi was silent, if Zhao Fusheng's words were a few years ago, she would definitely scoff at them, but now, she is no longer the female college student who doesn't understand anything, and the ups and downs of the business sea for several years have already made Dong Chenxi understand that what Zhao Fusheng said is really right.
"Have you read the report of the Strategic Planning Department?" Zhao Fusheng did not take this matter to heart, but asked Dong Chenxi.
Dong Chenxi nodded: "Look, and I also asked someone to do a data evaluation, judging from the data, if we plan to enter the Korean entertainment industry, the best investment object is DSP, or YG." ”
"Oh?" Zhao Fusheng raised his eyebrows and looked at Dong Chenxi in surprise: "What about JYP?"
DSP, YG, JYP and SM are the four major companies in the Korean entertainment industry today, and DSP is a veteran company that has shown its strength very early, cultivating early Korean idol groups such as Crystal Boy and HOT, while YG and JYP are rising stars and are now showing good strength. Zhao Fusheng also knew that in the next few years, DSP would decline, and the other three companies would take advantage of the situation to become the three major companies in the Korean music industry.
Of course, even at that time, these three companies still had a significant influence in the Korean music industry.
"DSP is now in a difficult situation at home and abroad, and their founder Li Haoyan is gradually taking a back seat because of his health, and it is the right time for us to enter. YG is actually a niche company in South Korea because of its route, and hip-hop music is their style and their limitations, so if we want to break into the Korean entertainment industry, both companies need financial support. and JYP, our evaluation experts believe that among these two companies, the former already has a mature star-making system and is deeply involved in political forces, which is not suitable for us to invest in, while the latter, their company founders are too emotional, which is not conducive to the future development of the company. Dong Chenxi talked eloquently in the face of Zhao Fusheng's questioning, obviously doing his homework.
Zhao Fusheng sat there, listening to Dong Chenxi's analysis, and was silent for a long time.
Just when Dong Chenxi thought that he had persuaded Zhao Fusheng, Zhao Fusheng suddenly laughed and said slowly: "Your analysis is very reasonable, or when you evaluate, the people below must have seriously discussed." But the question is, is the information you have really in line with the actual situation in South Korea?"
Dong Chenxi was stunned for a moment, and looked at Zhao Fusheng in surprise, it was obvious that she heard it, and Zhao Fusheng had something else to say.
