Chapter 788: Status Quo
In late February, Jang Che returned to South Korea, returned home upside down, ordered a table of takeout, and waited for Sunny to return.
I haven't seen Sunny in almost 10 days, so why don't you want to!
Of course, Lord Sunny also wants Zhang Che, otherwise he won't come back to the company to sell the leave, so come back to meet Zhang Che first, and the two of them are tired of being at home together for an afternoon and a night, and then they go to their own companies separately the next day, and Lord Sunny goes to the company to confirm the next itinerary by the way, and Zhang Che goes to the company to confirm the company's affairs during this time.
"Yo, you're back?"
"Well, you're done singing?"
"Well, I can't get one anyway, so why bother lying on the stage!"
I met LE, this free and easy girl has an unexpectedly good temper, but she is a bit cruel when she sees Zhang Che and doesn't say honorifics.
"By the way, how is the music industry lately?" Zhang Chexin said that since he had met it, he would ask.
"Well, the little girlfriends are all the best, and the big and small singing shows have added up to eleven consecutive championships, I don't know if it will continue next week!" An Xiaozhen said with a smile, "Really, they all dance, that stage is infectious, and it is not unjust to lose to them." ”
This Zhang Che really didn't expect it, I originally thought that the song "Time Lapse" would not explode without a little girlfriend, but it seems that the most important thing for idol is that popularity is not a song, and when it comes to the point of popularity explosion, what should break out will still explode.
"Then your song "You Are the Most Perfect" is not going to make a second major return?" Zhang Che asked.
"The performance of that song is not good, Minister Jin discussed it with us, and felt that it would be a waste of time and resources to return under the current situation, so we simply don't want to return!" LE said.
"Are you okay?"
"It's not that there are no opinions, but what Minister Jin said is also reasonable, we all have things to do at hand, and although it is not impossible to return again, it is ......"
LE is actually very entangled, of course there are benefits to returning again, they haven't given up on further dreams, but the current situation is like this, the little girlfriend has become a big trend, and now the return is just looking for fun, and it's not suitable to fry cold rice after a while, plus their several schedules are really full, a little too busy.
"Well, let's do it, I'll have a good chat with Minister Jin about this, and if I am in the company today, let her come to my office in a while!" Zhang Che thought for a moment and said to LE with a smile.
LE nodded, and went about his own business!
When he returned to his office, the first thing Zhang Che did was to go online to learn about the current dynamics of the entertainment industry, and only with understanding could he deal with the documents that needed to be dealt with.
Every year around the Spring Festival, the dynamics of the entertainment industry have always changed three times a day, Zhang Che has not stayed in South Korea for half a month, and many things are not very clear.
Removing some gossip rumors, such as the scandal of "Deok-sun and Go-hwan", Lee Seung-gi's enlistment, and Yoon Pu-mi's appearance in "My Knot", in summary, are three major events.
The first is that the little girlfriend has become a big trend, and all the singing stages continue to be all killed. This Zhang Che had already gotten preliminary news from LE, but in fact, after checking the Internet, he found that it was bigger than he imagined. With the popularity accumulated during the "produce" period, coupled with the first few song selections, and the success of the group's operation, the little girlfriend completely broke out, and it was still a situation of confrontation between the two strong years ago, and now it is a monopoly, and Apink and EXID have all been forgotten in the corner.
No wonder Kim Ki-dae is reluctant to let EXID return for the second time, the reputation that has been accumulated with great difficulty before, if it is forced to return, it will be ruined!
The second thing is the love affair between Kim Jong Kook and Yoon Eun Hye.
was exposed at the end of January, and after less than a week of fermentation, and then quickly reached a climax after the two consecutive hits of "Brother I Know" and "RunningMan", and during the Chinese New Year, I even remembered that Kim Jong Kook took Yoon Eun Hye back to his hometown in Anyang, which completely detonated at once.
This time is different from more than ten years ago, when Kim Jong Kook went to Yoon Eun Hye's house, and Yoon Eun Hye attended Kim Jong Kook's brother's wedding, the two of them did not admit it, and it was not impossible to say that they had to be friends, but now ...... The romance has been exposed, you can't say it's just an exchange between friends, right?
This time, the two sides did not evade, but they did not respond positively, this attitude of not denying and not responding suddenly attracted the attention of the public, and everyone said that it was the rhythm of going to get married.
Thanks to them, the ratings of the second part of the Spring Festival special of "Knowing Brother" and "RunningMan" hit a new high, and the first issue had a significant increase, "Knowing Brother" broke 2%, and "RunningMan" returned to double-digit ratings, to 10.7%, such a stimulus, "Knowing Brother" directly broke to 2.5%, "RunningMan" also returned to 15% again, and even broke 20% in an instant when the two national MCs faced off.
Benefiting from this, "Brother I Know" held a press conference and made a 5% ratings agreement, and Kim Yong-chul was still sadly urged by Kim Hee-cheol to say the agreement to get off the 5% car.
"RunningMan" is also a big change, the originally planned personnel changes have been completely overturned, power PD does not have to return again, Zheng Zhemin directly turned positive, and took "RunningMan" in advance. Although he is in power, it is enough for that kid to have a headache, Yin Enhui came to participate in the show, Jiang Hudong's appearance in the show is a small probability event, without Zhang Che, these people can't be invited at all, Zheng Zhemin knows very well that he will do this show by himself, not to mention anything else, it is a difficult task to keep the double-digit ratings alone.
The third thing, the TV series "Descendants of the Sun", was popular when it first premiered, and now the entire TV drama circle is the news of this TV series, from the acting skills of the two leading actors, to the plot direction, etc., are all being discussed.
It's just that, compared with the first two things, the current popularity of this matter is only limited to the circle, and TV writers and directors with a little vision and ability can see the influence of this TV series, so those who have a way to act have already started to act, for example, Liu Renzhi sent an email to Zhang Che, and officially sent an invitation to Zhang Che on behalf of the SBS TV Bureau to write a script.
In this matter, Zhang Che really doesn't have any good ideas for the time being, and Liu Renzhi also understands that it is impossible to say that it is impossible to temporarily make a TV series to fight with "Descendants of the Sun" at this time, and it must be something to be considered after others finish broadcasting, so he didn't reply, and planned to wait until the situation depends.
The general situation is like this, with an understanding, take a look at the documents that need to be processed, the batch of batches, whether it should be or not, and work until the end of the afternoon, before the end of work, the Chinese medicine doctor will finish processing the accumulated documents.
Seeing that there was still some time, Zhang Che thought about it, walked out of the office, and went directly to Kim Ki-dae's office.
"Director Nin, are you coming to me?" Kim Ki-dae looked at Jang Che who entered the door in surprise.
"Well, it's a little trivial!" Zhang Che was not polite, sat down directly, and said, "Regarding EXID's return plan, I heard that you canceled their second return to the main game?"
"Well, it's because ......"
Although Zhang Che and Kim Ki-dae are not as close as Li Haoyang, they have worked together for so long, and it is no longer a relationship between bosses and employees.
Basically, what LE said was similar to what Zhang Che thought, the input and output were not proportional, and there were risks, so the second return was canceled, but there was one thing that LE didn't know.
"They want to buy the cover rights to this song?" Zhang Che asked in surprise.
"Well, I think this song fits the style of their girl group Mamamoo. Kim Ki-dae said.
Style-...... Of course it does, is it their song!
It's just that......
"Although the music source is not satisfactory, but it is also the song in the album, and the time is so close, are they sure they still want this song?
"This is not something we are considering, since people want it, then it means that they have confidence, right?" Kim Ki-dae said noncommittally.
"That'...... Is there a possibility of using EXID's fame to hype?" Zhang Che asked again.
"Actually, it doesn't matter if it's hype, it doesn't take much resources to keep EXID exposed, even if the other party has the practice of borrowing popularity, it's not necessarily a bad thing, and from the fan base, status, popularity, etc., the other party actually pays more, and a bad one will completely collapse. ”
Think about it, too, the current mamamoo and EXID are not of the same magnitude, buy the songs of the predecessors, borrow the popularity of the predecessors, if you can't overpower the predecessors, you will be scolded to death in minutes, and then lose countless fans, and it will be finished directly if it is serious.
"Why are they in such a hurry?" was the only thing Zhang Che couldn't understand.
"I don't know, that's not our concern!" Kim Ki-kin shrugged and said, "We just need to discuss whether or not to sell the song to them!"
"This thing...... Wait a minute, I'll ask about the situation first!" Zhang Che replied.
Mamamoo's four girls are definitely a clear stream in the idol circle, they have no special appearance, but they have special singing skills and almost unique on-the-spot play, and they are funny, Zhang Che doesn't want them to take a wrong step and be completely finished.
Well, let Sunny help you get in touch, and meet those four girls in private, there's nothing wrong with singing, there's no need to take that risk, right?
"Okay, as long as you don't delay it too long, it seems that you are in a hurry to arrange a return time!" Kim Ki-dae was not surprised, but just admonished.
"Well, yes, then I'll get off work first, don't be too tired!"
"Well, a little bit of things, I'm gone when I'm done!"
"Then, let's take my leave!"
"Hmm...... You go slowly!"
