Chapter 742 - Making Requests

There is a time gap between the recording and broadcasting of variety shows, some are broadcast while recording and editing, and some are broadcast after all the recordings and editing, and the specific interval is not necessarily.

Xiao Yao is interested in several Haiyan video variety shows are on the air. For these programs that he has not participated in, Xiao Yao doesn't know what stage the recording has progressed to, and he doesn't know whether all the flying guests behind these programs with flying guests in each episode have been determined, and whether he can plug in, so he must first contact and communicate with the program team to understand the situation first.

Although Xiao Yao has always made his own decisions about whether to take the job or not, and what work to take, the contact and communication in this area have always been carried out by Fang still come forward.

Xiao Yao has cooperated with Haiyan Video less often in recent years, and the cooperation between them is relatively pleasant, so Fang still has a good relationship with the management of Haiyan Video's variety show department. Since Xiao Yao was interested in several programs this time, Fang still did not contact a program group alone, but directly contacted a director of Haiyan Video's variety show department.

With Xiao Yao's achievements in the circle in the past two years, Fang Yi's status in the circle and his temperament are also changing. When contacting the Haiyan Video variety show department this time, Fang still went straight to the point and said that Xiao Yao has been relatively idle in the past month and wants to be on a variety show. He was interested in several online variety programs of Haiyan Video, and asked if any of them was suitable for arranging for him to be a flying guest.

From Xiao Yao's past performance in variety shows, it can be seen that Xiao Yao's sense of variety shows is very strong, and in terms of his current fame, he is a first-line star, and the appeal is definitely not to be said, Haiyan Video is definitely very welcome. Although Fang still said that Xiao Yao's free time is only one month, among the several programs that Xiao Yao is interested in, there are not many flying guests who are scheduled to have bigger coffee seats than him, and it is definitely not a problem to arrange a few programs for him to be a flying guest with a little coordination.

However, the person in charge of the Haiyan Video Variety Show Department keenly noticed what Fang still said that Xiao Yao had been idle in the past month, and by the way, he mentioned that Xiao Yao promised to help the 101 girl group write songs last year.

When promoting the animated film "Walli" last year, Xiao Yao went to be a star senior for Haiyan Video's "Creation 101" program, which selected the girl group, and helped one of the trainees complete a performance. At the performance site, when Xiao Yao helped his group members canvass for votes, he promised the fans at the scene that if more than half of the trainees in the group entered the final group of eleven people, he would help the girl group write another song. In the end, four of the six members of Xiao Yao's group entered the final eleven list and made their group debut, which also means that Xiao Yao owes this girl group a song.

Of course, Fang still knows about this matter.

When the show just ended last year, Haiyan Entertainment, a subsidiary of Haiyan Group, and the artist agency that cooperated with Haiyan Entertainment and was responsible for the brokerage business of this girl group once asked Xiao Yao to sing through Fang Ying. At that time, Xiao Yao was the final exam week of his junior year, followed by the premiere of "Walli", and more importantly, the other party wanted the other party to take Xiao Yao's new song to participate in the graduation song party of Shonan Satellite TV two days later, Xiao Yao promised to write songs and choreograph, not to say that it was a debut song, and he refused on the grounds that he had no time.

At that time, Xiao Yao was indeed in the final exam of school, and a few days later it was indeed the premiere of his animated film, Xiao Yao's reply didn't sound like there was anything wrong with it, and Haiyan didn't insist, so the matter dragged on. Later, Xiao Yao has been busy with film matters, setting up a studio and opening a film and television company with his friends to open new projects, and over time, this matter is almost forgotten.

Although it dragged on, the matter was still there. Fang still knew that Xiao Yao was the master of what he said, and he would definitely do what he promised others. At that time last year, Xiao Yao still said to Fang that there was still a year and a half to go, and he would give everyone the songs and dances within a year and a half, and now that a year has passed, it is almost time. So Fang still quickly fed back this matter to Xiao Yao.

Of course, Xiao Yao remembered this matter, but he didn't pay much attention to it in the past year. Fang still said this, and Xiao Yao also attached importance to last year's "debt".

In fact, when he made a promise on the performance stage of the show last year following Guan Haize's words, Xiao Yao already had songs and dances for the girl group in his heart. Xiao Yao felt that the song and the accompanying dance were definitely not something that could be won in two days, and that song was not suitable for performance at the graduation song. The reason why Xiao Yao refused Haiyan Entertainment's invitation to sing was also for the effect of their stage performance and his own reputation.

Xiao Yao still attaches great importance to the works he took out. This can be seen from the fact that most of the songs Xiao Yao wrote to others were recorded and produced by himself.

Although Haiyan Entertainment must have equipped this girl group with professional vocal teachers and dance teachers, this song and the supporting dance were all created by Xiao Yao, and he happened to have a month of free time, so Xiao Yao simply didn't go to participate in any variety shows, and decided to spend this month to get the song and supporting dance for the girl group.

The person in charge of Haiyan Video's variety show department actually wanted Xiao Yao to participate in the variety show. Because Haiyan Entertainment and Haiyan Video belong to the same company, they have a lot of contact and cooperation with each other, and "Creation 101" was also a program produced by their Haiyan Video Variety Department, so I mentioned this matter in passing, but I didn't expect Xiao Yao to not plan to participate in those variety shows because of this matter. When he learned the news, the person in charge of Haiyan Video Variety Show Department was also speechless for a while.

However, I heard that Xiao Yao planned to spend a month training this girl group in person, and the people of Haiyan Video were not too disappointed. Those few variety shows that Xiao Yao was interested in didn't participate, of course Haiyan Video can't force it, but since Xiao Yao has to spend a month on this 101 girl group, it is logical to arrange Xiao Yao to the new group variety show filmed by Haiyan Video for the 101 girl group.

The so-called group variety shows refer to a variety show exclusive to an artist group, introducing the daily life of group members and some activities. The first episode of the group comprehensive program is generally more than a dozen episodes, updated once a week, and is usually produced when a new group debuts or is on fire, to consolidate fans. The so-called new group variety refers to the fact that the group variety was filmed before, and then there was a more popular period, so he took advantage of the situation to shoot another group variety show.

I learned these things from Korea. Basically, as long as it's not a company that has a brain in the water or a group that goes to the street, it will generally do it. "Creation 101" was originally a program that bought the copyright from South Korea, and the girl group created was also an idol girl group with the same path as South Korea.

The group comprehensive of the 101 girl group was filmed and produced after they debuted as a group. Now it has been a year since their debut, and the first reunion has long ended. However, it is currently the first anniversary of their debut, and Haiyan Entertainment not only arranges a lot of commemorative activities for them on this ground, but Haiyan Video is also filming a new group comprehensive for them on this ground.

The group comprehensive is a reality show that introduces the daily life and activities of group members. Xiao Yao has to spend a month training the members of the women's group to practice singing and dancing, which is exactly the most suitable content of the group comprehensive. If Xiao Yao can appear in the new group of this girl group, then this group variety show will not only be a weapon for this girl group, but also a weapon for attracting fans, attracting a large number of fans for this girl group.

Xiao Yao doesn't mind filming and editing the content of the training and turning it into a variety show. Anyway, I already experienced it once when I participated in "Creation 101" last year, as long as Haiyan didn't interfere with his training content and training plan, and didn't assign him any messy tasks and activities for the sake of the show.

For this, there is no problem with Haiyan video. Xiao Yao's sense of variety show is there, when he participated in "Creation 101" last year, the program team agreed to his various requests and let him play freely, and the result was not lacking in highlights. This time, the group variety show is more life-oriented, and the requirements for variety shows are relatively low, and they can be left to play freely.

Regarding the matter of participating in the show, the two sides quickly negotiated and reached an agreement. Next, the two sides discussed Xiao Yao's song and dance for the girl group.

In fact, with Xiao Yao's current achievements in the music industry and the creative talent he has shown, especially the songs and dances that have helped Korean girl groups get a place in South Korea, Haiyan Video does not doubt Xiao Yao's ability to write songs and choreographs for the girl group. Haiyan Video discussed with Xiao Yao about the songs and dances he gave to the girl group, not because he was worried that what he gave was not good and wanted to review it in advance, but because he wanted to make requirements for Xiao Yao in this regard.

Of course, Xiao Yao promised to help the girl group write songs and choreographs on the performance stage, but did not promise to write songs and choreographers according to the requirements of Haiyan or the women's group agency, so when Haiyan raised this point, she also had a negotiating tone, and wanted Xiao Yao to try her best to meet it, without much coercion, and her attitude was still very good.

Although Xiao Yao already had songs and dances for the girl group in his heart, he did not refuse directly, but listened to Haiyan's request first. After all, I have a lot of songs and dances of the girl group in my previous life in my head, as long as the requirements are not too harsh and the completion is not too troublesome, I can still try my best to meet the requirements.

Haiyan Video doesn't have many requirements here, mainly two. One is the style of songs and dances, don't come to the cute and cute style of "Learn to Meow", I hope it is a sexy style. The second requirement is that I hope that Xiao Yao's song to this girl group is a Korean song.

The reason why these two conditions are put forward is because in a little more than a month, there will be a concert of Chinese and Korean stars called "Infinite Starry Sky".

This concert is different from the Chinese-Korean song party with ZZ significance held by CCTV, and is jointly organized by several giant-level entertainment companies in China and South Korea. This concert is mainly based on various idol groups in China and South Korea, and there are not many singers who are pure singers. Haiyan Video is also one of the organizers of this concert, but Haiyan Entertainment has no singers and no trainees, and the only one who can be sent to participate in this concert is this girl group that has been selected through the program and has half a year left in ownership.

Although there is only one girl group, Haiyan Video and Haiyan Entertainment still attach great importance to their performance in this concert.

The members of this girl group were selected from countless trainees from dozens of entertainment companies in China, and when they did the show "Creation 101" last year, Haiyan Video shouted the slogan of "Building the No. 1 Women's Group in China". Even if they can't compare with Koreans in terms of building idol groups, at least their performance at the concert can't be overshadowed by other Chinese girl groups, right? Haiyan Entertainment has been preparing for this concert for a long time, collecting good songs for this girl group everywhere, which is also one of the reasons why the other party mentioned Xiao Yao's "debt" as soon as he contacted Haiyan Video.

The market in China is large, and in recent years, Korean stars and idol groups have come to China to perform commercially, and some Korean groups have also specially released Chinese versions of some popular songs. The concert was held in China, and the audience must have been overwhelmingly composed of Chinese fans, so some Korean entertainment companies also plan to let their idol groups perform Chinese versions of popular songs at the concert.

This concert is jointly held by entertainment companies from the two countries, and artists from both countries participate in the performance. Although the concert will be held in China, there are important TV stations and video websites in South Korea and China that broadcast the concert live. Korean idol groups want to sing Chinese at concerts, and naturally some Chinese entertainment companies here have the idea of letting their artists sing Korean songs.

However, Korean idol artists sing Chinese songs for the Chinese market, and no matter how good the Chinese idol groups are, it is difficult to hit the already very saturated Korean idol star market. There are a lot of musicians in China, but there are not many who can create Korean songs, just for a concert, I deliberately went to South Korea to find Korean musicians to write songs, and most entertainment companies still don't think it's cost-effective.

First of all, the idol group market in Huaxia is mainly in Huaxia. When a Korean song of a Chinese idol group is released, it is unknown what kind of results can be achieved in China, and it is even more unknown in the relatively saturated Korean market.

Secondly, there are now many Chinese netizens complaining that Huaxia's idol groups are completely copied from South Korea. You can localize it, just engage in Chinese idol groups, and it can be said that you can make Chinese fans like their idols. If you go to South Korea to buy songs and release Korean songs, won't it make fans more respectful of Korean idol culture? It is more likely to attract the disgust of Chinese netizens.

However, if this Korean song was written by Xiao Yao, the situation is different.

First of all, Xiao Yao is a Chinese star who can compose Korean songs, and his Korean music works have successfully entered the Korean music market. Whether it's the Korean songs he sings or the songs he writes for other Korean artists, he has achieved very good results in Korea. His works are gold-lettered signboards, and there is a market not only in China, but also in South Korea.

Secondly, Xiao Yao has composed many musical works in many languages. In addition to Chinese songs, there are many English songs, Korean songs, and even Spanish songs and songs that are said to be in African languages. He writes Korean songs, but no one says that he is Ha Han and Flattering Han, but gives the Chinese people a long face.

Therefore, when Xiao Yao, who can write Korean songs for the women's group, happened to agree to write songs for the women's group at this time, it was certainly impossible for Haiyan not to fight for this aspect and ask him in this regard.
