Chapter 314: tvN's Famous Work

As soon as the two came in, they greeted Li Xianhao first. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

"President~" one of the leading middle-aged beautiful (harmonious) women shouted first.

"Sit down. ”

Li Xianhao is not familiar with the two, and on Mnet's side, he only knows one president, Lee Jae-hoon, so after politely greeting him, he waited for the two to introduce himself.

"Chairman, I'm Representative Choi Jin-heo of Mnet, and I'm also the head of the Drama Production Headquarters, and I'm Director Kim Ji-hyun of the Drama Production Bureau......"

The TV drama department has a TV drama production bureau, a TV drama publicity bureau, a TV drama planning bureau, etc., this Kim Ji-hyun can be said to be a capable subordinate of Cui Zhenxi, otherwise he would not have dragged her over to see Li Xianhao.

"It turned out to be Representative Cui and Director Jin, I don't know what you guys are here for?" Li Xianhao sat calmly opposite the two and asked casually.

"President, I heard that you've been on a break lately, haven't you?" asked Choi Jin-hee.

"Well, that's right, it was too hard to shoot the "Boys Over Flowers" TV series before, so I'm going to take a break after it's over, huh? Cui is asking what you're doing with this?" Li Xianhao was suddenly stunned in his heart, reacted, and hurriedly looked at Cui Zhenxi and Kim Jixian. Both of them are from the TV production department, and they came to find themselves at the moment, so they don't want to let themselves shoot TV series again, right?

Li Xianhao's guess was right, this is the purpose of the two of them coming today.

Sure enough, hearing Li Xianhao say this, Cui Zhenxi smiled slightly and said, "President, since you have been off for so many days, why don't you come to tvN to star in a TV series?"

"That's right, President, don't you know how popular you are in TV dramas now, our tvN is cable TV, and the ratings are already low, and it has just been reorganized not long this year, and there is no TV drama masterpiece that has been taken out, if you star in a TV series, it will definitely open up the situation for us tvN......" Kim Ji-hyun on the side also persuaded.

Kim Ji-hyun is the newly appointed director of TV drama production after the reorganization of Mnet and tvN and TBC, OCN and other TV stations after the acquisition this year, she has been working in tvN before, and she was in it at the beginning of tvN's establishment, which can be said to be the company's veteran, but since the establishment of tvN, the development can only be regarded as average, and it can still dominate one or two in the cable TV network, but compared with the three major stations, it can only be a small thing.

However, Kim Ji-hyun is a very accomplished production director, and in her previous life, under her leadership, tvN produced a lot of word-of-mouth and rating-rated TV dramas. She has a different perspective on the genre of TV series. Starting points such as "jumping out of the magic weapon of Korean drama love" and "paying attention to the little people" have brought a different kind of freshness to the TV drama market, and the "Please Answer" series produced under this premise, TV series such as "Unborn" and "Signal" have hot ratings, and can even compete with the TV dramas of the three major stations for ratings.

Kim Ji-hyun has a different view of TV dramas, and Lee Xian-ho's "Boys Over Flowers" made her also see the importance of Lee Xian-ho to TV drama ratings, and because of this, she made this proposal to Choi Jin-heo, came to Lee Xian-ho, and persuaded him to star in a TV series for tvN.

Seeing that the two of them really came to look for him to appear in the TV series, Li Xianhao understood what the two said, but he couldn't agree to the request of the two.

"Director Kim, I know what you mean, but I'm sorry, I really don't have time to act in a TV series at the moment. ”

"Don't say that I have to deal with the company's affairs, but at present, I am working on a new album for my Girls' Generation, two albums for myself, and songs for my two upcoming debut groups, and I am also the leading actor in the currently filming "Get Out, Tumor", so I don't have time to star in a TV series myself......"

Li Xianhao patiently explained to Kim Jixian.

"Then President, you can write a TV series, write a TV series for us tvN......" Kim Ji-hyun saw that Lee Seon-ho had so many things on his side, so he could only retreat to the second.

"Writing a TV series?"

"That's right, I believe that with the president's script, we tvN can also use this to open up the situation......"

It's best not to invite yourself to star in a TV series, but if you simply write a TV series script, Li Xianhao can still accept it.

Li Xianhao nodded. Then I think back to what script to use. Of course, the first thing that came to his mind was the "Please Answer" series.

The "Please Answer" series is arguably tvN's most famous TV series. If this TV series is placed on the three major channels, it is definitely a divine drama, and the ratings do not say how many records are broken, but at least they are not below 30%.

But Li Xianhao gave up this idea after thinking about it. The "Please Answer" series was made in reverse time, the first of which was "Please Answer 1997", followed by "Please Answer 1994" and "Please Answer 1988". And the time can't be reversed, you can't shoot "Please Answer 1994" first and then shoot the other two, or you can't shoot "Please Answer 1988" first, because its plot is also a little related.

However, in "Please Answer 1997", the two most important characters, the heroes and heroines Jung Eun-di and Seo In-guk, are still not famous at all. Zheng Endi is okay, he has been pulled into the AT company by Li Xianhao and became a trainee, as for Xu Renguo, he doesn't know where he is.

Seeing that Li Xianhao was pondering, Jin Zhixian thought that Li Xianhao would not agree to this, and hurriedly said, "President." You really want to help tvN, with your script, it will definitely make tvN famous. ”

"Well, I know, you let me think about it......" Li Xianhao was interrupted from his train of thought, and with some displeasure stopped Kim Ji-hyun from wanting to continue.

Since he couldn't use the "Please Answer" series, Li Xianhao recalled tvN's other famous TV series, but found that although they were all good, they couldn't give tvN a very bright feeling. If you want to make a name for tvN, you need to choose a TV drama with good ratings, popularity and reputation.

"Hmm, this TV series should be okay, right?" Li Xianhao thought of a TV series, which was "Splendid Heritage", one of the major dramas in 09.

"Splendid Legacy" is a drama produced by SBS, and its ratings reached 47.1% at its peak, and although its storyline is old-fashioned, it seems very realistic, and the actors are also very good.

But Li Xianhao was a little hesitant. If this TV series is placed on SBS TV, plus the TV series written by Li Xianhao, I believe it will definitely have a super high rating.

However, if it is broadcast on tvN, it will be a bit wasteful. Because cable TV costs money, there are still very few people who watch paid TV programs. And after "Please Answer 1997" began to be broadcast, its ratings were only about 1% for a long time, and it was extremely wasteful to put a drama like "Splendid Heritage" on tvN, even if the ratings could break 5%.

However, in addition to this TV series, Li Xianhao thought that other TV series were worse than this, and he could only sigh.

Since it is to open up tvN's recession and make tvN famous, it is okay to release a "Splendid Legacy".

After thinking about it again and again, Li Xianhao finally decided to give this "Splendid Heritage" to Kim Ji-hyun.
