Chapter 118: Preparations for the Television Station
PS: Ladies and gentlemen, continue to ask for collections and recommendations!
Li Shenghao originally wanted to work hard with Zhang Xiaotian, but this unexpected phone call missed this opportunity. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
The call was from the United States, but not his family's number.
After the connection, a middle-aged man's voice came.
"Is it Modi Lee?"
"Hello, I'm Modi."
"Ah, hello, Modi, I'm Jerry Bruckheimer."
Li Shenghao waited until the voice on the other end of the phone announced his name, and he knew who it was.
Jerry Bruckheimer is a producer at Pirates of the Caribbean.
The 1945-born Hollywood gold medal producer became the number one person on the Hollywood power list in 2003. Graduated from the University of Arizona in the United States, most of the films he produced are popular films, and they have set a lot of box office records worth sighing for in the summer.
He has produced films such as "Top Gun", "Jedi Men", "Death Island", "Prison in the Sky", "Pearl Harbor", "Black Hawk Down", "Pirates of the Caribbean" and other films.
"Ah, Mr. Bruckheimer, hello."
Li Shenghao estimated that the uncle called him probably to pull him back to the United States.
"Modi, are you in South Korea now? When will I be able to come back. The post-production of Pirates of the Caribbean is about to enter the final stage, and it is estimated that it will be released in more than 1 month. The publicity period is coming soon, and you, the mysterious genius screenwriter, have to make an appearance. ”
As expected, this Hollywood gold medal producer is best at dominating the summer screen in North America, and it seems that he may be an important part of his promotional strategy.
"Mr. Bruckheimer, I came to Korea this time to release a Korean single, and now that the single has been recorded, it is estimated that I will be able to go back in about a week."
Lee Sung-ho has more than a week to plan for himself to be in South Korea this time, in addition to the birthday party with Xiao Nizi and three live performances on the three major TV stations, he is to visit the best friends and aunts of the two mothers.
"A week to come back? Modi, you must know that this time, both Disney Studios and I, the producer, attach great importance to this Pirate of the Caribbean, and I am confident that this film will make a good box office this summer. Seeing that it is about to enter the publicity period, you, the mysterious screenwriter, are also going to stand in the foreground. ”
Bruckheimer was clearly a little unhappy with Lee Sung-ho's stay in South Korea for another week.
This is a $140 million production!
"I'm sorry, Mr. Bruckheimer. I apologize to you in advance, but my trip has already been arranged, and it will take at least a week. It's not that I don't pay attention to this movie, after all, there are still my dividends in it, no, of course I want this movie to have a good result. ”
Li Shenghao is very confident in this movie, and not only this one, but he is also almost finished preparing the scripts for the next 2, 3, and 4.
And Li Shenghao even used a large part of the funds to invest in industries related to this movie, and there is no specific news for the time being, but if you calculate the time, there will be accurate news.
"I'll finish my trip in South Korea as soon as possible and fly back to the U.S. to try not to delay your promotional plans. And with your reputation in Hollywood, as well as the strength of director Gore and the popularity of Mr. Depp, it is difficult for such an iron triangle to succeed! ”
Lee Sung-ho began to "pour soup" into the big-name Hollywood producer.
"Uh......, then Modi, you have to deal with South Korea's affairs as soon as possible, I'm almost ready here."
Bruckheimer didn't expect that Li Shenghao's young age would not only have the strength of a screenwriter, but also be so sleek and sophisticated.
"Well, Mr. Bruckheimer, don't worry, besides, my visit to South Korea is not without gain, I already have an idea for the second script of Pirates of the Caribbean, thanks to this trip to South Korea."
Li Shenghao threw out another "carrot"!
"Huh? Pirates of the Caribbean Part 2 you also have an idea, that's great, Modi! Oh! Thank God! You're an angel now, no wonder your fans call you Master Modi, it seems that you have indeed brought me good luck! ”
"Haha, Mr. Bruckheimer, I'm not an angel in charge of luck, and I'm from the Celestial Empire, but I don't believe in God."
"Don't care about the details, Modi! The point is that you have to finish the second script of Pirates of the Caribbean as soon as possible, and when the first part comes out at the box office, I believe that whether you as a screenwriter or me as a producer or Disney Pictures will gain a lot. ”
Bruckheimer is not asking Lee Sung-ho to rush back as soon as possible, and the most important thing now is to complete the script of the second part.
Finally, under Lee Sung-ho's "turnip soup" offensive, the Hollywood gold medal producer compromised.
Li Shenghao also knew that even without Bruckheimer's phone call, he would have to return to the United States as soon as possible.
Because in the United States, he is not only this movie, but also his own novel.
This temporary Korean debut was only because of a somewhat "black-bellied" idea that suddenly popped up on the plane, which was purely a ticket game.
And the real main thing this year is to finish that novel, and then there is to prepare his first English album, although he has a preliminary plan at this year's Grammy red carpet show, but there are still many specific things that need to be done little by little.
He won't participate in next year's Grammys, and when the 2005 Grammys come, Lee Sung-ho won't just be running for one or two trophies.
As well as his own studies, it looks like he will return to the United States at the end of April, and a third of the year has passed.
Another important thing is about the cute girl Pani.
According to the historical trajectory before the time-travel, this smiling girl will come to South Korea alone in 2004, come to S.M Company, and become another Korean-American trainee.
Although Li Shenghao doesn't know if his crossing will affect the cute girl, he still believes that the flapping of the wings of his little butterfly can't bring a hurricane to another part of the world.
If you follow the trend of history, there won't be much time left for you to brush your sense of existence and favorability in front of the cute girl Pani, and you have to hurry up.
Friday, April 11, 2003, is the day when Lee Sung-ho debuted in South Korea.
Since D Agency reported that Lee Sung-ho came to South Korea, many South Koreans are paying attention to him every day.
Whether it is on the Internet or on TV and newspapers, you can find information related to him almost every day, especially in the entertainment section of the Internet, which is basically updated every hour.
The most concerned and the largest number of people are those who have become Lee Sung-ho's fans, and Lee Sung-ho's popularity in South Korea has skyrocketed after Lee Sung-ho shined on the Grammys in the United States and was dug up for content related to South Korea in his personal information.
In addition to Lee Sung-ho's personal strength, the most important thing is the strong national self-esteem, sense of national responsibility and national cohesion of the Koreans.
If Li Shenghao's mother is not Korean, it is estimated that he will only be taken by a few strokes.
It is precisely because of his relationship with South Korea that Lee Sung-ho can be regarded as occupying half of the home advantage in South Korea.
Coupled with his impeccable appearance and the status of a top student of Harvard Business School, he quickly became a hot spot, a focal point, and a hot spot in South Korea in a short period of time.
For the release of this Korean single, Lee Sung-ho is really flattering, not only under the banner of giving back to fans, but also announced early that all the income from this single will be donated to social charities in South Korea.
These two measures undoubtedly put on a gorgeous coat for Lee Sung-ho's debut in South Korea, and no matter which media it is, it has given positive and positive coverage to his Korean single release.
It's the general trend!
In particular, Li Shenghao's Grammy halo is too dazzling, and the 15-year-old Grammy winner has extraordinary musical talent and extraordinary creative ability, especially his changeable creative style, which is even more amazing.
This time, Lee Sung-ho's first live performance on KBS TV was completely hot, hot, and crazy.
Especially as South Korea's national television station, KBS has also made a lot of efforts this time, because more and more people have seen the perfect scene of Lee Sung-ho's "Oprah talk show" in the United States, and this video has been circulated.
Unexpectedly, Li Shenghao's live singing was even more exciting and perfect than in the studio.
So, by order issued directly from the Ministry of Culture and Tourism, the director of KBS TV personally held an on-site meeting for Lee Sung-ho at the KBS TV Music Bank.
Everything from the set of the live stage, the impact equipment, the lighting effects, the camera position and so on, everything must be done to the highest standards.
As the chief PD of the music bank, Liu Zhongxun obviously felt the pressure this time.
Not only the solemn entrustment of the director at this meeting, but also the request of President Lee Tae-young of R.E.B.
The dinner party the night before was very high-spec, and there was a very generous gift, so both he and the PD of MBC TV Music Center and SBS TV popular songs patted their chests and said that they would do their best.
But judging from the current situation, it is not enough to just do your best, you have to be foolproof.
For the first time, Liu PD felt that a small debut stage would be so stressful, and I believe that the pressure on the other two would not be less, especially if they were perfectly successful on KBS TV today.
It seems that R.E.B. gifts are not so easy to receive!
And some friends who have said hello before this and need help seem to be unable to do it this time, he doesn't want to let himself lose his job because he helps his friends.
After being told by the director that he must ensure Lee Sung-ho's debut stage, Yoo Chung-hoon also gathered all the TV station staff related to the music bank this morning.
When everyone arrived, Liu Zhongxun rarely put away his usual approachable attitude.
swept all the on-site staff with serious eyes in turn, and then he only said two words about the arrangement of Li Shenghao's debut stage this time.
