Chapter 370: The Cherry Blossom Ending
Kim Jong Kook has been in the army as scheduled under the intervention of Zhang Che since he was crowned the Triple Crown Champion, and returned to the entertainment industry after 2 years and 2 months of military service. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Although because of Zhang Che's intervention, Kim Jong Kook left a good reputation, but no matter how good the reputation has been in the past two years, it has been covered up by an endless stream of newcomers, and the four albums of songs released by Kim Jong Kook after retiring from the army are average, plus the return period is catching up with the most lively battle in the music industry, although there are a bunch of die-hard fans to support, he still just took a few backups and quit.
Although Jang Cheol and Yoo Jae-seok both think that Kim Jong Kook simply gave up his identity as a singer and concentrated on transforming into an artist, this brother doesn't think so, he is ambitious to make one last attempt, planning to release his fifth album in April and try again.
For this, Liu Zaishi doesn't know what to say, he wants to persuade him, and he thinks that this is someone's job, after all, he is also the triple crown champion, it is a pity to give up like this, but don't persuade him, what if he really becomes popular again and quits variety shows, in Liu Zaishi's opinion, Kim Jong Kook still has a lot of development potential in variety shows.
Liu Zaishi didn't think about what he was going to do, but Kim Jong Kook came up and asked him to come forward to help invite Zhang Che to sing.
For this, Liu Zaishi smiled a little bitterly, you must know that the relationship between your Kim Jong Kook and Zhang Che is not bad, and your company can send an official letter to Zhang Che's company for such a thing, why do you need him to come forward.
Kim Jong Kook finally twisted and pinched to make things clear, because it was the last attempt, and it was also Kim Jong Kook's own strong request, so he didn't get much support in the company, his agency was not willing to spend a lot of money to return again or didn't want to return now, especially to invite Zhang Che to sing, their company's director shook his head when he heard it, it was rumored that Zhang Che's invitation fee was already ridiculously high to the extent of a ridiculous 1 billion won a song, and it was not enough to take out all the production costs, let alone whether it could be earned back。
Of course, Kim Jong Kook's company director also kept an eye on him, saying that you Kim Jong Kook is very familiar with him, and if you go to beg him, he may give you a song at the current market average price.
Jin Zhongguo pondered for a while, maybe it could really work, as far as he knew, Zhang Che still missed the old love, but he felt that he didn't have such a big face alone, so he hit the idea on Liu Zaishi's head.
Liu Zaishi is very embarrassed by this, he also knows that it is not easy for Kim Jong Kook, but it is indeed a little aggrieved to let Zhang Che write songs for Kim Jong Kook at the average price of his current "worth", and he does not dare to agree to anything when it comes to money, so he can only say that he will help Kim Jong Kook talk about it.
That's all Kim Jong Kook wants, he also knows that as Yoon Mi-rae's song becomes stronger and stronger, his confidence is less and less, and it is already good for Yoo Jae-seok to help him speak, and he is even ready to spend 300 million to buy it.
However, what neither Yoo Jae-seok nor Kim Jong Kook expected was that Jang Che agreed, not only agreed, but also charged no average price, just 30 million won. This made Liu Zaishi feel that he had a unique face, and it also made Kim Jong Kook feel a mess, and even swore that as long as Liu Zaishi and Zhang Che said a word, he would be willing to break into the sea of swords.
If these two knew that Zhang Che had actually always been at this price, and because they hadn't invited a song for a long time, Li Cailin had been said to be a person who ate idle food, I don't know if they would be angry.
So, sometimes, it's better to be a little confused.
Having said that, because Kim Jong Kook was in a hurry, Zhang Che didn't talk nonsense, and just didn't say a word...... Copying.
Since 2009, in fact, it has entered the trough period of solo singers, except for a demonic IU who dominates the world, it is the world of the group. In this way, a better solo song is rare, and it is even rarer to get one, and in Zhang Che's memory, there are only two songs on the men's side.
One is Kim Tae-woo's "Love Rain", and the other is Zion.T's "Yanghua Bridge".
If you really want to talk about it, Kim Tae-woo's "Love Rain" is actually more suitable, but Kim Jong Kook and Kim Tae Woo are not different at all except for their appearance, especially the voice, as for "Yanghua Bridge", Zion.T's unique voice is the charm of this song, and Kim Jong Kook can't sing that taste.
What really made Zhang Che hesitate was another song, the song "Cherry Blossom Ending" by the band BuskerBusker.
This is a magical song, and it didn't cause much repercussions when it first came out, because the band itself didn't have much influence, but this song has a magical phenomenon, every year in the spring, this song appears at the top of the major charts like a ghost, and the number of downloads in the spring is super large, and it has become a must-listen song for Koreans in the spring.
The most important thing is that although this song is sung by a band, it is not difficult to change it to a solo song at all, and what Zhang Che is struggling with is whether to modify this song and give it to Kim Jong Kook.
Zhang Che was a little hesitant, so he decided to give the choice to Kim Jong Kook, and in about two weeks, Zhang Che "copied it" and sent it to Kim Jong Kook for him to choose.
Kim Jong Kook is actually in a dilemma, because he thinks the two capitals are good, whether it is "Love Rain" or "Cherry Blossom Ending", they are all high-quality songs, but the two capitals can't open this mouth when they accept him.
It's not that he can't afford to pay 60 million for inviting songs, but Kim Jong Kook has always thought that Zhang Che is a friendship price given for the sake of himself and Liu Zaishi's face, and taking a song is a confession, and it would be shameless for the two capitals to take it, if he can do this kind of thing, it will not be Kim Jong Kook.
After two days of entanglement, Kim Jong Kook finally chose "Cherry Blossom Ending" and reluctantly gave up "Love Rain", not because of anything else, his new album was released at the end of March and early April, just in time for the cherry blossoms to bloom, such a song would obviously seem more suitable.
Kim Jong Kook went to prepare after making the choice, the time for releasing the song was quite tight, it was already the end of February, and it was quite tense to prepare for all the albums in a little more than a month. And Zhang Che once again received a shooting notice from me.
Since the last time Jang Che was "educated" by Lee Chae-rim, the shooting effect is still quite good, of course, this is also thanks to the editing skills of Rong PD, this PD is the new replacement of Park Chang-hoon as the chief PD of the show this year, and he also advocated for Kim Taeyeon and Jang Che to partner up, because they were all artists and artists before, and he wanted to try different combinations.
This attempt actually failed from the beginning, because Jang Che and Kim Taeyeon didn't call at all, just when he was about to admit defeat and give up, Jang Che gave him a surprise, he watched the shooting effect that time, it was very good, and after actually playing two episodes, the audience's response was also good, at least the evaluation of the melon-eating masses on the pair was no longer "bad", "I don't feel it at all", but it turned into an evaluation like "a little interesting".
Last week, the plot of Jang Che giving the ring to Kim Taeyeon was already broadcast, and this segment of Rong PD clip is closer to the funny and slightly warm aspect, so the scandal that Jang Che thinks is actually not very loud, after all, sone does not admit Jang Che until now, so the problem that S.M is worried about has not appeared, which also makes S.M's senior management glad that they chose to change to a male idol?
The filming of the other groups has also been getting better, so Rong PD plans to get them together for a group shoot. In the past, they basically filmed their own, and Rong PD also wanted to see if there was a chemical reaction when they were put together, which could be regarded as an attempt during the revision.
So Zhang Che got his own shooting script in advance today, with a total of two contents, one is to visit the house of Qiangren and his wife, and then set off with them to participate in the so-called Spring Festival Games.
Of course, first of all, Jang Cheol had to pick up Kim Taeyeon.
Zhang Che's problem of not having a driver's license is vividly reflected in this show, he went in a nanny car, and this time he brought Pu Suzhen, who was free, otherwise it would be too difficult to buy an ice cream like last time and have to run errands by himself.
Zhang Che didn't plan to take the time to get a driver's license by himself, not only was he scolded by sone on the Internet because he didn't have a driver's license, but even Sunny said that he had been stopped by the program team several times. It is said that Rong PD is very interested in the filming direction of what Zhang Che said about family trivialities, so he plans to arrange a link where Taeyeon will help Jang Che get his driver's license as an internal assistant in the later stage, and Jang Che has no opinion on this, but he feels that he may not be able to last until that time, after all, from the current situation, the rise of Girls' Generation is unstoppable, and this show is actually of little significance to Taeyeon and Girls' Generation, and the possibility of Taeyeon getting off early cannot be ruled out.
But no matter what, Zhang Che is still very shabby today to pick up Taeyeon alone, and even on the way to Qiangren and his wife's house, he took a taxi, and it is estimated that Zhang Che will be scolded to death again when he turns around.
Taeyeon has a little cold and fever today, so Jang Cheol is very considerate and tries to let Kim Taeyeon have a good rest from the moment he gets in the car, plus it is not very convenient to talk too much in the taxi, so he didn't talk to Taeyeon much, but who knows what medicine Taeyeon took the wrong medicine today, and he is full of ambitions, so he asked Jang Che about his current situation for a while, and then began to look forward to the future, and somehow mentioned the house as he spoke.
"Oppa, what do you think our wedding room will look like?" asked Kim Taeyeon, blinking her eyes hard and expectantly.
