Chapter 740: Recommending Artists

Jin Yufan didn't expect that in the T-ara incident, he would be able to get two places recommended by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism from Lee Mengxi, which was really unexpected by Jin Yufan.

You must know that in the Korean entertainment industry, it is not a secret that the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism recommends artists, the brokerage companies know it, and the artists also know it, but they only know, but for the artists recommended by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, what are the reasons and what are the benefits, large brokerage companies may know, but many artists don't know what it means and what it represents.

The reason why Jin Yufan is very excited is because Jin Yufan is very clear and understands the importance of the number of artists recommended by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, because Jin Yufan himself is also an artist recommended by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, so he was also notified by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, and told Jin Yufan about the privileges, rights, and benefits of the so-called Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism to recommend artists, so Jin Yufan learned about the rarity and importance of the artists recommended by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism.

Mnet's shares, including bars and nightclubs, Jin Yufan did not pay attention to it, after all, in terms of money, Jin Yufan really did not lack much. As for Lee Jae-joon's departure from South Korea, it can be regarded as avoiding Kim Yufan, and Kim Yufan didn't take it to heart, this is just a simple face project, but the face is more based on his own strength, rather than being given by others.

Even if Lee Jae-joon doesn't leave South Korea, what if he experiences such an incident, in the future, Lee Jae-joon will meet Kim Yu-beom, and it is estimated that his legs will be weak and he will not be able to stand steadily, and he is afraid that Kim Yu-beom will die of fear.

However, the last two places recommended by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism are definitely unexpected gains, and they are also the most satisfying for Jin Yufan.

After all, Kim Yu-beom really plans to take the MC company to mix in the Korean entertainment industry. Since it is to concentrate on mixing in the entertainment industry, then the so-called quota of artists recommended by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism is really too important, very, very important.

Even in a sense, the importance of the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism recommending artists to the agency will not be worse than the agency cultivating a super group. Even in addition to being weak in terms of income and influence, in many other aspects, it is stronger than a super group, and even stronger in a few points.

Why does Kim Yu-beom attach so much importance to the number of artists recommended by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, then this has to start from the level of the Korean entertainment industry.

In the Korean entertainment industry, if you want to talk about levels, then from beginning to end, they are directors, actors, singers and variety artists.

Among them, the actors are also divided into very detailed divisions, divided into movie actors and TV series actors. Film actors have a higher status than TV drama actors. Similarly, even movie actors have a detailed division, and the highest status is Chungmuro actors.

Similarly, variety artists also have a very detailed division, and the status of the host is much stronger than that of funny artists.

In general, the level of the Korean entertainment industry is four levels. They are directors, actors, singers and variety artists. But in fact, more accurately to divide. Or that there are some special circumstances and special people, because they have reached a status and a realm, then the situation is different.

Because in terms of directors, there are two levels, namely the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism recommended artists and the national level. Among them, the national level is more influential. However, in terms of status, the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism recommends artists with a higher status.

Even if he is a variety artist, as long as he gets the national title and reaches the national level, then he will be in status and popularity. Including influence, it will definitely not be worse than directors and big-name actors, and it will even be stronger.

This can be seen from Liu Zaishi's body. Although Liu Zaishi is not very good-looking, he is just a host, and he is still a funny artist, but so what, as a national MC, who dares to despise Liu Zaishi, even if it is any famous director and big-name actor, he must be polite to Liu Zaishi.

Don't look at Kim Yu-beom's national standard, and he got it a long time ago, it seems that the national level is not very difficult to achieve, which is wrong.

In fact, it is really difficult and difficult to reach the national level, and it is even unimaginable. In fact, over the years, in addition to Jin Yufan, only Liu Zaishi has reached the national level.

Even Jiang Hudong, who is also called the two mountains of variety shows, is only the two mountains of variety shows, and is not a national MC, at least half a step weaker than Liu Zaishi, but with such a half step, the difference is very big.

As for singers, actors, and even directors, there really isn't anyone who can get the national title. Even if the singer is the most successful group, TVXQ, he is not eligible to be called a national singer.

And the same is true for actors, whether it is Zhang Dongjian, Ahn Sung-ki, or Lee Byung-hun and others, no matter how good they are mixed and how popular they are, they will not be called any national actors.

The same is true for directors, even if Kang Dikyu saved Korean local films, he is only a famous director, one of the top and most well-known directors in South Korea, and he is not a national director.

Don't look at a lot of times, especially in the show, you can say that this is a national actor and that is a national singer at every turn, but it's more just a kind of respect for each other. Take a closer look, those who are called national-level in the show are basically seniors who debuted very early and developed very well.

Strictly speaking, the entire Korean entertainment industry is really called by the people, and it is a national-level person who is truly recognized by the Korean people, only Kim Yufan and Yoo Jae-seok.

The national level can make the variety artists at the bottom of the entertainment industry instantly surpass the director in status, not to mention the artists recommended by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, which is one level higher than the national level.

Why is the status of the artists recommended by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism at the national level even higher, so the first thing is to understand what is the artist recommended by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, how to become an artist recommended by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, and how to select the artist recommended by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism.

The Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism recommended artists by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism were in fact the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, which appeared after 2000 at the beginning of the planning of Hallyu culture. Relying on the influence of Hallyu culture to enter other overseas markets and other countries, and promote Korean culture, not only brings more income, but also brings influence. This was in line with the policy of the Korean government at the time.

Therefore, in this context, the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism has also planned a plan for the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism to recommend artists.

However, this plan is not evaluated by the people and insiders, but by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, and wants to become the only criterion for the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism to recommend artists. It's to see if this person has contributed to the promotion of Hallyu culture. There is a contribution, that is certain, and at the same time, this contribution cannot be laughed at, it must be a sensation and play a great contribution in order to be eligible to enter the eyes of the senior management of the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, and it is possible to obtain the qualification of the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism to recommend artists.

In terms of national conditions, South Korea is definitely the most developed entertainment culture and the largest industry in the world. The most influential country.

You must know that in South Korea, one out of every four people has something to do with the entertainment industry, and every year in the music industry alone, the trainees must be eliminated, and hundreds of newcomers will be eliminated, leaving only twenty or thirty newcomers to survive.

Even if there are twenty or thirty newcomers who survive, they don't know how much they will survive after the three-year newcomer period expires. It's nice to survive half of it.

It can be seen that there are a large number of artists in South Korea. It's beyond people's imagination. It's definitely not an exaggeration to say that there are more than 500 singers alone, and it is normal for there to be more than 1,000 actors among actors with longer career lives.

But even though there are such a large number of artists in the Korean entertainment industry, nine years have passed since the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism came up with the so-called Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism in 2000. It's been almost ten years, and there are only about a dozen artists who can get the artists recommended by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, which shows how difficult it is to get the artists recommended by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, and how strict the judging is.

And to talk about the promotion of Hallyu culture. In the beginning, it was movies and TV series, especially a classic Korean drama, that could definitely cause a big sensation. Therefore, at present, there are only a dozen artists recommended by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, and they are all actors.

Jin Yufan originally relied on "Full House of Romance", "I'm Sorry, I Love You", and screenwrote "Paris Lovers", because these three TV series, after they were first broadcast, not only did they make a big splash in South Korea, but also achieved very good results in China and Japan.

Because Jin Yufan is also an artist recommended by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, he still has some understanding of the other artists recommended by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism.

Kim Tae-hee, who worked with Kim Woo-beom on "Full House of Romance", caught up with good luck, because of the success of "Full House" and its popularity in overseas markets, Kim Tae-hee also obtained the qualification of being recommended by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism.

Bae Yongjun and Choi Ji-woo relied on the success of the TV series "Winter Love Song", especially the huge influence overseas, to obtain the qualification of artists recommended by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism.

Similarly, Song Seung-hun and Song Hye Kyo also relied on the huge sensation and influence of "Blue Life and Death Love", as well as their huge success and popularity overseas, and also obtained the qualifications of artists recommended by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism.

Similarly, Park Shin Yang was also qualified as an artist recommended by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism with his wonderful performance in "Paris Lovers". However, Kim Jing-eun, who also starred in the heroine of "Paris Lovers", did not have the qualifications to be recommended by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, which shows how strict the evaluation of artists recommended by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism is.

In general, it is basically TV drama actors who have been recommended by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, after all, in the first few years of 2000, Korean classic TV dramas continued to appear, and their influence was indeed great.

In this regard, Korean film actors are much worse, but Cha Tae-hyun and Jun Ji-hyun's "Sassy Girlfriend" was also very successful at the beginning, and the impact was very great, and he also obtained the qualification of an artist recommended by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism.

Carefully calculated, there are only a dozen or so artists recommended by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism in South Korea, all of whom are actors, except for Cha Tae-hyun and Jun Ji-hyun, who all rely on TV dramas to get this qualification.

This also proves that at that time, TV dramas were the main force in Hallyu culture, and as for movies and music, including variety shows that are now coming from behind. At that time, it did not help much in promoting Hallyu culture at all.

In the end, Hallyu culture is on the right track, with more and more influence and better development. Movies, TV dramas, music, and variety shows have all played a very big role in promoting Hallyu culture.

But at that time, the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism had already canceled the recommendation of artists. Because Hallyu culture is on the right track and is not as difficult as it was at the beginning, no matter how good and dazzling the results are now, it will not be able to qualify as an artist recommended by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism.

Therefore, there are really too few artists who can become artists recommended by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism.

Since the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism recommends so few artists and the evaluation is so strict, what benefits and privileges can being recommended by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism bring to the artists themselves?

First of all. That is the issue of status, as an artist recommended by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, there is no doubt about the status. Even if a national-level person comes, it's useless, do you dare to arrogantly look down on the artists recommended by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, dare to look down on the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, and don't want to mix in the entertainment industry.

Again, in the popularity of overseas. At the same time, it is of great help to the positive image of the artist himself. This is because the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism often advertises for tourism in various government backgrounds in Korea. Whether it is a national tourism advertisement or a tourist advertisement in Seoul or Jeju Island, the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism will generally consider the artist recommended by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism first.

Of course, if you can be like TVXQ at its peak, then there is nothing to say. Horror popularity and strong popularity are also able to obtain such official advertising.

You know, this kind of tourism advertisement, it is broadcast to the outside world, and it is broadcast in countries other than South Korea to attract tourists and attention, so as an advertising spokesperson. Of course, you also took the opportunity of this advertisement to enter the sight of overseas countries, and you can be regarded as semi-entering the overseas market.

In the same way, being able to endorse this kind of conquest background and a very positive tourism advertisement can also play a very normal image for artists in Korea, especially in the minds of the people.

After all, ordinary people don't think too much, but they also know that this kind of tourism advertisement that represents a country or city is like this, so this artist must have been determined by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism after a detailed investigation, and the image is very good to have this qualification.

This can also improve the image of the artist invisibly, and even greatly reduce the number of Antis, which is very rare in Korea.

At the same time, as an artist recommended by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, he is often able to earn more money by virtue of the value of the artist recommended by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism.

If two actors of the same level, the same acting skills, the same brokerage company background, and the same influence and popularity participate in the filming of a TV series. One is an ordinary actor, and the other is an artist recommended by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, so the value and salary of the two are definitely different.

For example, if an ordinary actor is paid 10 million won per episode to participate in the filming of a TV series, then the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism recommends that the artist be paid at least between 12 million and 15 million won by virtue of this status.

In general, the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism can make you an extra 25 million to 5 million won if you recommend an artist, and if a TV series has 15 episodes, then after the TV series is filmed, you can earn 30 million to 75 million won more than another ordinary actor.

Not only that, but in terms of ordinary commercial performances, as well as advertising endorsements, there will be at least one layer more than the normal price, which is stipulated by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, and no one dares to disobey it, which is also a benefit that the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism has specifically fought for the so-called recommended artists, proving that the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism recommends artists is not just a slogan, but has real benefits, to intensify the efforts of artists to promote Hallyu culture.

Of course, there are other benefits that I won't mention here, but in general, the benefits of artists recommended by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism are too much compared to those who have not received an artist recommended by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism.

If it's just a benefit, it's nothing, and as an artist recommended by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, there are actually a lot of privileges.

One of them, in the case of equal competition in all aspects, to compete for a role, under normal circumstances, it will be the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism that recommends the artist to win the final victory.

Similarly, if the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism recommends an artist to join a certain crew, then the crew cannot kick the artist recommended by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism out of the crew halfway, even if the director, screenwriter and investor are not satisfied with the actor, but as long as the artist recommended by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, I have to endure and continue to shoot if I am not satisfied, and it is absolutely not allowed to cause any situation, or change the actor halfway because of contradictions.

And if it is a male artist, with the identity of an artist recommended by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, when necessary, you can apply for a delay in military service, and the military's response is definitely a lot more polite, unless you really don't plan to serve in the military, otherwise, the military will be very reasonable.

Of course, this is only for the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism to recommend artists, if you don't have this identity, dare not serve in the military, it is no different from looking for death.

The Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism has many other privileges to recommend artists, so in the Korean entertainment industry, there is also the level of artists recommended by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism above the national level. Although it is known that it is not as good as the national level in terms of influence and popularity, in other aspects, and even in some key aspects, it is definitely able to throw several streets off the national level.
