Chapter 1165: Heroes and Heroes (5)

Song Zheng didn't expect a group of female stars to make something very good, but it was really rare to do it like this.

When I looked up and was about to speak, I saw a group of people looking at him intently, and when the words came to my mouth, I swallowed them back, and they worked hard enough, all of them were big stars in South Korea, and as a result, they worked hard to play the cook's cosplay in order to make the show, and the requirements couldn't be too high.

"Brother Zheng, what do you think?" asked Park Ji-yeon with an expectant expression.

It's such a thing, I feel sick to my stomach when I put it in my mouth, and you're embarrassed to ask me how it is?

Hearts are made, right?

"Uh~~~~~ I think we could have done better!"

Song Zheng was embarrassed to belittle, but he was also embarrassed to speak with a clear conscience.

After listening to the translator temporarily invited by the program team to repeat Song Zheng's answer in Korean, the red team suddenly burst into laughter, but on the other hand, the red team was all depressed, especially the three female stars in charge of cooking all bowed their heads.

Park Ji-yeon was also depressed for a while, and said dissatisfied: "Brother Zheng, even if it's really not very delicious, you don't have to hit people like this!"

Was that a blow just now?

Well, sort of!

Seeing Park Ji-yeon's depressed look, Song Zheng had no choice but to add: "But after all, it's not a professional, it's already good to be able to do this!"

is too high a compliment, Song Zheng really can't say it.

Next, probably for the sake of ratings, the guests kept asking Song Zheng all kinds of questions with the two hosts, and if he could answer them, Song Zheng would deal with them, and if he couldn't answer them, he laughed at them.

Fortunately, everyone was quite measured and didn't ask questions that embarrassed each other, otherwise, Song Zheng couldn't guarantee that he wouldn't flip the table all of a sudden.

After eating, Gao Xiaosong paid the bill, and the pasta, which was supposed to be 10,000 won, was sold by Park Ji-yeon at a sky-high price, and Gao Xiaosong had to pay 300,000.

In this regard, Gao Xiaosong didn't say anything, and paid the bill with a smile, and it can be seen that although it is a relationship between superiors and subordinates, Gao Xiaosong and these girls have a good relationship.

After eating, Song Zheng was about to say goodbye, and when he left, he didn't know what he thought, so he suddenly asked, "Which Miss Liu Renna?"

After listening to the translator's words, Liu Renna looked at Song Zheng in surprise, and she really couldn't understand why Song Zheng suddenly asked such a small person as herself: "I~~~~~ I am!" Song Zheng ~~~~~~~ senior!"

Liu Renna really doesn't know what to call Song Zheng, thinking that Song Zheng is now an internationally renowned actor, and his debut must be earlier than herself, so it should be right to call her senior.

Song Zheng looked Liu Renna up and down, this woman's appearance conditions are indeed very good, not amazing, but it will give people a very charming feeling.

Liu Renna was nervous by Song Zheng for a while, but then Song Zheng didn't say anything, just nodded at her and left.

What does this mean ~~~~~~~!?

Song Zheng left, leaving Liu Renna, who was confused, and the others, and when Song Zheng was sent out, Lu Hongzhe began to babble as soon as he came back.

"Ah! That's good! Renna, she can actually attract the attention of a big star like Song Zheng, and maybe she will have the opportunity to participate in Mr. Song Zheng's works in the future!"

Liu Renna was taken aback by Lu Hongzhe's words, starring in Song Zheng's works, just kidding, how could it be!

Although she was arranged by the company to debut as an actor this year, so far, she has only acted in two TV series, and she has played very small roles in them.

"No kidding, Hong Zhe Oba, how is that possible!"

Liu Renna said, sat down to the side and went to rest, thinking about what happened just now, don't look at her saying that it is impossible, but how can she suppress her fantasies in her heart.

That's Song Zheng, an internationally renowned actor and director, if he can really have the opportunity to star in Song Zheng's works, it will really be ~~~~~~~~~

didn't allow Liu Renna to continue to fantasize, the afternoon shooting work started again, and everyone was busy again, and it was busy until more than six o'clock, and the business was over.

After the final count, the RED team won the final victory, and the proceeds will be donated to charities in South Korea's name.

"Everyone's hard work, everyone's hard work!"

Everyone said goodbye to each other and was about to leave, and Yoo In-na had just packed up her things when Park Ji-yeon suddenly walked over.

"Ji-yeon, is there anything else?"

Park Ji-yeon looked around and whispered, "Rennaoni, do you have time now?

Liu Renna was stunned when she heard this, she naturally knew who the president Park Ji-yeon was talking about, and she came to the restaurant with Song Zheng to visit at noon today.

"Want to meet me, Ji-yeon, do you know what's going on?"

Park Ji-yeon shook her head and said, "I don't know the specifics, the president just asked me to convey it, I don't think it's a bad thing!"

Park Ji-yeon didn't tell the truth, Gao Xiaosong called her just now, and on the phone, she had already said the reason, don't look at Park Ji-yeon's age, but in the end, she was in the entertainment industry at a young age, but she has a lot of eyes, how can she say it casually in front of so many people.

Liu Renna was suspicious and had the heart to go, but after all, the other party was the president of a large company, and the big boss behind the scenes was still a big man like Song Zheng, after hesitating, Liu Renna finally nodded.

In a Chinese restaurant not far from the filming location, Liu Renna and Park Ji-yeon walked in together, and then were taken into a private room by the waiter, Gao Xiaosong was already waiting inside, and the dishes were ordered.

"Miss Liu Renna, please take a seat! I don't know what you like, I'll just order it!"

Liu Renna just said hello and sat down with apprehension, but Park Ji-yeon had long been used to it casually in front of Gao Xiaosong, staring at the table full of dishes with bright eyes.

"President, you usually invite us to dinner, but you have never been so generous, there are so many delicious foods, I must eat more today!"

When Park Ji-yeon first came to the company, she was also well-behaved in front of Gao Xiaosong, but after a while, she found that the president really didn't have any shelf at all, and she often invited them to dinner, sat together and talked and laughed, and after a long time, Park Ji-yeon let go.

Gao Xiaosong said with a smile: "You girl, beware of eating fat, your dance teacher will punish you." ”

Park Ji-yeon stuck out her tongue at Gao Xiaosong and said with a smile: "I'm not worried, I'm a body type that doesn't get fat just by eating!"

One is the president of the brokerage company, and the other is its artist, the way these two people get along makes Liu Renna on the side stunned.

To tell the truth, seeing Park Ji-yeon talking to Gao Xiaosong so big and small, Liu Renna was even more shocked than seeing Song Zheng.

Before Liu Renna's debut, she had experienced a trainee career of more than ten years, and now although she debuted, she is still the lowest artist with some popularity.

In South Korea, many people only see the radiant performance of artists on the stage, but behind the infinite scenery, there is a desolation and misery that ordinary people can't imagine, especially in front of economic companies, artists are nothing at all, and even some artists who have unlimited light and call for wind and rain are just money-making machines in the eyes of the senior management of economic companies, and they don't even have the most basic personal dignity, and economic squeeze is the most ordinary, and some even have to be treated violently, and they will be beaten when they raise their hands.

The reason is not because the speed of renewal in the Korean entertainment industry is too fast, newcomers are stubble after stubble, and it is a joke for artists to want to control their own destiny, because there are newcomers who can replace them at any time.

But there are still more and more people who desperately want to squeeze into this circle, but in the end, there are a few who can get ahead, such as Liu Renna, who has worked hard for more than ten years in order to dream in advance.

The cycle of training an artist in Korean agencies is generally two to three years, starting from the age of fourteen or fifteen to training artists, and debuting at the age of sixteen or seventeen.

At this stage, the teenagers who participated in the training were called trainees, and they not only had to receive training in singing, dancing, physical and other aspects, but also food and accommodation were arranged by the company.

In the process of training, the company will implement cruel elimination because of poor singing, or out of shape after growing up and maturing.

After two years of training, there will be an elimination rate of about 50%, and the current popular 5-member group TVXQ and 13-member group Super Junior basically belong to the trainees who participated in the training at the same time, and there were about 30 trainees who trained with them at that time, and finally these 18 people debuted and became famous.

TVXQ's captain Jung Yoon-ho made his debut as a trainee for 5 years, and he has been acting as a backup dancer for others in the process.

Like Yoo In-na, she is basically an outlier, so she cherishes any opportunity she has now, and for the sake of these opportunities, she must be cautious, not to mention talking to the president of her own company like Park Ji-yeon, who is neither big nor small, but she doesn't even dare to breathe when facing YG president Yang Hyun-suk.

In South Korea, most artists are actually like this, because their fate is in the hands of the agency, and they dare not have any opinion on any arrangement of the agency.

Even if it is an unreasonable arrangement, there can be no resistance, such as plastic surgery, plastic surgery is a compulsory course before the debut of Korean artists, and those students who are still in the training stage have basically undergone plastic surgery before becoming famous.

Liu Renna has been a trainee for more than ten years, and she is very familiar with this matter, in the trainee stage, everyone has to undergo the "lens test" regularly, that is, on the stage, let the camera shoot themselves from all angles, before and after, left and right, and then the expert will give an evaluation, and the test results are the basis for judging whether the artist should undergo plastic surgery before his debut, and they will receive partial plastic surgery depending on the specific situation, so that every aspect of the lens can be perfect.

At present, more or less Korean first-line artists have undergone plastic surgery, such as rhinoplasty and injections to slim their faces, such as the members of the mythical group who have basically had face slimming injections, Zheng Duobin, who committed suicide in 2007, lost popularity because of the plastic surgery scandal, and eventually contracted depression, so he embarked on the road of no return.

In addition, during the training cycle, Korean film and television companies have to pay all the expenses of the newcomers, and a large company will have to pay more than 100 million won per person per year to cultivate a group.

In order to ensure that this investment can be recovered, the contract period between the company and the artist is quite long, as little as 5 years, or even 10 years of contract is very common, and some are simply dead contracts.

For example, An Qixuan of the HOT group, signed a contract with the company, and the two of them are still in their old club.

In addition, the economic company's percentage of the artist's income is quite high, generally seven or three or twenty-eight, and even many artists can't get money at all in the first few years of their debut, and one of the members of the mythical group, Kim Dong Wan, can only have money to buy a residence for his parents after he becomes famous for 7 years.

And those young people who want to become famous have no concept of money at first, but after a long period of fame, they may have conflicts with the brokerage company, and if they want to leave the company, they must pay high liquidated damages, often as high as 8 figures, which can only discourage artists.

In addition, there are also organizations such as the Singer Association in South Korea, if a singer wants to change jobs before the contract arrives, even if he can afford to pay liquidated damages, the singer association will ask other companies not to sign a contract with this person.

After debuting and becoming popular, in order not to be forgotten by the public, those stars who became popular must work hard with all their might. There are hundreds of variety shows in South Korea, in addition to the normal work of recording records and shooting film and television dramas, the stars also have to accept the company's arrangements to participate in these variety shows, usually in a row, and some even in the RV in order to catch up with the announcement, food, housing and travel, a few years ago, Rain, known as the king of Asia, had a traffic accident because he had to participate in two galas in a row, and he was in a hurry, and this kind of high-intensity work is very common.

In addition to the economy, personal freedom is controlled by the brokerage company, and the most terrible thing is personal privacy, and security is constantly threatened by the brokerage company.

For example, in 2000, when South Korean female singer Baek Ji-young's career was soaring, her agent and boyfriend exposed the secretly filmed erotic video. In 2005, Song Hye Kyo's mother received a threatening letter from her former agent, Kim, demanding that she pay 250 million won, otherwise she would use hydrochloric acid and psychedelic drugs against the mother and daughter.

In fact, South Korea does not have a full sense of the agent system, the company will arrange assistants around the artist, the assistant usually has a lot of privacy of the artist, and when the company finds that the artist is disobedient, or does not get the expected benefits, it will try its best to retaliate against the star.

Korean companies generally use Confucianism as a management method for artists, and artists who want to be popular must be "obedient" and 100% obedient, otherwise, the company will implement a ban order, such as getting fat, the company will require weight loss, and if you can't do it, you will be refrigerated.

In this way, artists can't raise the slightest courage to resist in front of the brokerage company, and they must be respectful to the company's senior management, even if it is just a small section leader, lest they annoy the other party and cause trouble for themselves.

Therefore, a speechless joke with Gao Xiaosong like Park Ji-yeon is completely unthinkable in Liu Renna's opinion.

It's just that in addition to being surprised, Liu Renna can't help but be a little envious, in the Korean entertainment industry, the treatment of 1+1 companies is good, that is an open secret, Liu Renna has a very good relationship with Park Ji-yeon because of the recording of "Heroes and Heroes", and naturally she also knows some from Park Ji-yeon, and the way 1+1 companies treat artists is also unthinkable.

Superior living conditions, generous sharing ratio, in addition, there is a team of professional assistants to help them take care of all the chores, it can be said that 1+1 company treats T-ara like a princess.

Who wouldn't want to go to such a good brokerage company!

Thinking of this, Liu Renna's heart beat suddenly, and she secretly glanced at Gao Xiaosong, and secretly thought: He came out of me, should he want to ~~~~~

"Miss Liu Renna!"

Gao Xiaosong's voice woke up Liu Renna, who was deep in thought, raised her head suddenly, and quickly sat up straight, although it could be seen that Gao Xiaosong was very easy-going, but the two were not familiar with each other, and the other party was the president of a large company.

"Inside, President Gao, please speak!"

It's not the first time that Gao Xiaosong has done this kind of thing, the six girls in the T-ara group, in addition to the snatched by the company, the remaining five people, only the youngest Park Ji-yeon was recruited by himself, and the other four people were all poached by him from other brokerage companies.

"That's right, our company is planning to produce a TV series at the end of the year, Song Zheng felt that you were very suitable for one of the roles after meeting you today, I don't know if Miss Liu Renna is interested!"

Does this need to be said?

When Liu Renna heard this, she almost jumped up with excitement, and looked at Gao Xiaosong with an unbelievable expression, it was Song Zheng who chose her, but it was Song Zheng who directed it herself.

Wrong!

Gao Xiaosong said that it was a TV series, and an international director like Song Zheng should not come back to make TV series, but being able to be favored by Song Zheng still made her very excited.

Liu Renna immediately seemed to agree, but when she thought that there was a brokerage company behind her, this kind of thing was not something she had the power to agree to at all, and her heart suddenly began to sink.
