Chapter 22: A Familiar Stranger
Variety shows exported abroad?
Everyone was stunned by Li Zhixian's thoughts, this doesn't seem to be the scope of the program's promotion, right?
Kim Tae-ho PD also didn't understand very much, and asked suspiciously, "But what does this have to do with the Unprovoked Song Festival?" ”
Li Zhixian expected this question and replied without confusion: "Just like the hidden camera I just talked about, everything needs an opportunity, and for the exit of infinite challenges, the Song Festival can become this opportunity. ”
"What do you mean......" Kim Tae-ho's doubts were not resolved and asked again.
"Infinite Challenge Concert." Lee Ji-hyun then spoke about the core of his plan, "Everyone must know better than me that the Infinite Challenge is not only in Korea, but also has a great influence in the Korean rice circle around the world, especially the Infinite Challenge Song Festival, in which the songs can occupy a place even in various foreign charts." Many fans are also very sorry that they can't come to the festival in person because they are abroad. In that case, why can't we combine all the songs of the festival in the countries where Infinite Challenge has the most influence, and hold a concert tour exclusive to Infinite Challenge, so as to expand the influence of Infinite Challenge on an international scale, and then export Infinite Challenge abroad? ”
Finally, Li Zhixian finished his plan, and there was no sound in the conference room, all surprised by his whimsy, or whimsy.
Until Kim Tae-ho PD was the first to come back from his contemplation, he just shook his head, I don't know whether he felt ridiculous or helpless, and then said out loud: "I didn't expect you to plan so far in advance." The plan you mentioned has already involved MBC's overseas layout, and this is not something that can be discussed by a few of us. ”
Lee Ji-hyun waited for a while, and when he heard Kim Tae-ho's response, his nervous heart finally sank, not to say that he was depressed, let alone relieved, but the plan that he had been studying for a long time was rejected, and anyone would inevitably be a little disappointed.
"But I'll sort out your proposal and hand it over to the Director of the Arts and Performing Arts Bureau, and as for whether it will be adopted, it's not something I can guarantee you."
Kim Tae-ho's next words made Lee Ji-hyun's face recover a lot, which at least means that the value of his plan has been recognized by the boss, and as for whether the follow-up can be enabled, to be honest, it is not within his scope of concern.
To put it mildly, even if this project is highly valued by MBC, it is impossible for him to take his turn to plan and operate. What's more, Li Zhixian's original direct purpose was not the project itself, but to show his value through this report, so as to be recognized as soon as possible and truly integrate into the group of infinite challenges.
The content of the subsequent meeting fell into the norm, and it had nothing to do with Li Zhixian's work, a summary of the data on the budget, production costs, ratings, etc., as well as the precautions for the filming of the next few episodes, the content was set in the previous meeting, so until the end of the meeting, Li Zhixian never opened his mouth again.
After Kim Tae-ho PD announced the dismissal of the meeting, he deliberately nodded at him when he passed by Lee Ji-hyun, and Lee Do-jun PD who followed him also smiled at Lee Ji-hyun with a smile on his face, and as for the other creators of the infinite challenge, the eyes of the other creators of the infinite challenge looked at him differently than at the beginning, Lee Ji-hyun felt that there was some recognition in it, not like the feeling of ignoring it when he joined the group at the beginning, which made him more excited than being recognized by Kim Tae-ho PD.
It is said that the king of Yama is easy to see, but the little ghost is difficult, although Li Zhixian, who knows that there is a king of Yama in China, does not know this Chinese saying, but he understands a truth: whether a person can integrate into a group does not depend on his proximity to the boss, but more on his relationship with all other team members.
Take the example of Li Zhixian's initial proposal to hide the camera, and before he could finish his explanation, some people stood up to refute it, although it was indeed a matter of facts, but at the same time, it also reflected Li Zhixian's status from the side - being ignored.
If it was proposed by a qualified member, everyone would think that he must have something else, and wait for the following, Li Zhixian, a newcomer with three nos, was not treated on the same level as them.
It's just that after Li Zhixian made such an astonishing statement, no one would have any contempt for him anymore, and everyone had initially accepted his status as an official member of the Infinite Challenge.
Creativity and ability are the most crucial factors in determining how far a person can go in the broadcasting world, and as Jang Yun-seok said, even if a treasure is buried in the sand, it is still a treasure, and there will always be a day when it will be discovered.
※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※ me points! ※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※
In the past three months, Lee Ji Hyun has been tired and fulfilling, and after being officially accepted by the Infinite Challenge, everyone began to take care of this new member, consciously or unconsciously, and his own understanding of program production has deepened, and FD's position has also become more and more comfortable.
There is also a gradual affection between several MCs who are in Infinite Challenge because of their long hours of work, not to mention their strong curiosity and active contact with the multiple identities in the new busy, Infinite Challenge has gone through nearly ten years of history, and has already become a big family, and the team atmosphere is far from being comparable to other shows.
During this period, Park Myung-so really privately asked Lee Ji-hyun to come out and get together twice, and the two had a few drinks and chatted about music and infinitely challenging work and interesting things.
Lee Ji-hyun met Ji who he couldn't meet for the first time during the subsequent filming, and he was very excited after learning that the new newcomer to the program team was still a composer.
Unlike Park Myung-so, Ji is a true music producer, who debuted in 2002 as a member of the famous Korean hiphop group Leessang, and has since won numerous awards, and he basically composed and produced his albums.
After getting acquainted with Lee Chi Hyun a few times, Ji saw that he was indeed a very talented newcomer, and even took him to visit Leessang's studio, but unfortunately Lee Chi Hyun did not meet another member, Gary.
As for the other MCs, although they lack resonance with Li Zhixian on the topic, they are all kind-hearted and warm-hearted brothers, and they often pretend to inadvertently promote the songs they composed for Li Zhixian and him, but there are too few works and too low popularity, and many viewers still think that it is a sitcom that the members of Infinite Challenge do as usual, and it does not play much publicity role at all.
As for Li Zhixian's work in the music center, it is much harder than in the infinite challenge, after all, the song program needs to build a large number of stages, and there are many performers, most of whom have to be coordinated by Li Zhixian himself.
But there are also a lot of gains, he has been engaged in basic work for a long time, Li Zhixian has become more and more comfortable with communicating with artists, stage structure, and on-site coordination, and even has many new names in the artist's phone book.
When I was at Ilsan MBC, because the filming at the music center was always in contact with the three Taetiseo girls every week, Kim Taeyeon would take the initiative to nod to Lee Ji-hyun every time they met, but that's all, the conversation between the two only stopped at "MCs, please come to the front desk and wait!" "Inside!" These two sentences only occasionally chuckle out loud because of the jokes of Li Zhixian and Tiffany, as if the previous accident had never happened.
Xu Xian has always maintained a polite smile for Li Zhixian, which makes people paradoxically cordial and angry.
Only Tiffany, who has a detached personality, will laugh and play with Li Zhixian every time, and she seems to have a very good impression of him, and I don't know if it is because she "saved" her friend once or because of the appearance of a warm man.
All in all, Li Zhixian's life is gradually on the right track, and the only thing that bothers him is that the house is still not good, and he is about to graduate, and he must find a new place to live as soon as possible.
On this day, when Li Zhixian was looking for a house everywhere, he received a strange but familiar phone call.
"Yo Bose! Jihyun xi? I'm S.M.'s Yellow representative, remember me? ”
