Chapter 15: The First Production
Following Kim Young-kwon's words, Writer Yoon stood up.
She walked over to the inscription board and wrote a line of words with a brush.
Everyone looked at it and saw that the words "Spring Special" were written on it.
Writer Yoon then explained, "It's March, the sting has passed, and the cherry blossoms in Yeouido are all in bloom. Such a good day, but it was a disaster day for our TV show. So if we want to stand out at this critical time, we have to come up with something different. ”
Another writer asked, "Ernie, what do we do?" ”
Writer Yoon glanced at Kim Young-kwon, and then said, "We have enlisted the support of the bureau and are ready to do a big special this week." In line with the theme of approaching spring, make a different program from the past. ”
The second PD Liang Yuzhe asked: "How much support has the bureau given?" ”
Kim Young-kwon gave the answer. "It's very big, and the bureau has specially allocated 30 million for this purpose."
Everyone was shocked at this time, and they also understood the extraordinary features of this show.
"According to our survey, the weather in the coming days will be very good, and it will be mostly sunny and cloudy. So in response to this situation, we decided to do a special feature that combines outdoor and indoor. On the one hand, it reflects the original style of the show, and on the other hand, it also conveys the breath of spring to the audience. ”
Everyone nodded their heads and agreed with the idea.
During the long winter, everyone basically stayed indoors, and they were already very depressed.
Now that the weather is warmer, everything is revived, and even the scenery is beautiful. In this case, people naturally leave the indoors, return to nature, and go outdoors one after another.
It's a great idea to convey the beautiful outdoor scenery to the audience on the TV screen.
Next, Kim Young-kwon played the role of the main PD and took over the chairmanship of the meeting.
"Since we're doing a special, we're going to make it a little bigger. In terms of stage sets, according to the most luxurious standards, the singers invited to appear must also be big enough names. Kim Young-kwon banged on the table and set the tone for this special.
The busy writer said embarrassedly: "But it is difficult to invite many popular singers, the time is so tight, I don't know if it's too late?" ”
Jin Yingquan didn't care, waved his hand heavily, and said, "Tell those people that this is an important activity of MBC." If they don't attend, don't even think about showing up at MBC in the future. ”
Everyone agrees with his words as a matter of course.
This is the most important activity of MBC in recent times, so the club attaches great importance to it.
If any singer dares to ignore it, then it is equivalent to not taking MBC seriously.
There are only a few television stations in South Korea's broadcasting industry, and even fewer can cover the whole country.
Offended the most influential MBC, and it was almost the end of the career.
Seeing this scene, Park Jung-hyuk really felt what the strength of the TV station was.
In his previous life, he learned about the domineering scene of Chinese TV from various news. But compared to South Korean TV stations, it is obviously a small thing.
The framework of the program has been set, and the next step is the specific division of labor.
Needless to say, Kim Yingquan is responsible for the recording of the entire program, so he naturally sits in the center and directs all aspects of operation.
The second PD, Liang Yuzhe, will be in charge of the location, and his next task is to complete the construction and coordination of the location.
The rest of the people also have their own tasks, and each person has a mess, and they will definitely be busy for a while.
As for Park Jung-hyuk and Bi Jin-ho, the two busy PDs, they are no longer following the chores, but have been assigned certain tasks.
Bi Jinhao's task is the back office, mainly for the management of equipment between indoor and outdoor equipment, as well as signal switching during recording.
To put it bluntly, it's the coordinator.
Park Jung-hyuk, on the other hand, has to reach out, that is, to contact the invited singers, explain the situation to the other party, and make sure that the other party comes to work on time.
After the meeting, everyone went their separate ways.
Writer Yoon sent a mailing list of artists to Park Jung-hyuk's phone and asked him to contact the people circled above.
got the contact list, and the first thing Park Jung-hyuk did was to record the names and contact information of the artists on it.
This is an important resource that will help him a lot in the future.
Of course, there are not many of the artist's own phone numbers on it, but more of the contact information of the agency or the agent.
But either way, you just have to find someone.
Next, Park Jung-hyuk sat in the office and began to contact one by one.
As the most important special program of MBC spring, Lee Hyo-ri is an indispensable one.
Park Jung-hyuk called the DSP company and explained the situation, but the other party was very hesitant.
Lee Hyori is now in full swing, and there are many activities, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as a daily progress.
And starring in MBC's show, the salary is not very much. Coupled with the fact that she is not in the return period, it is a bit more than worth the cost of doing so.
Hearing the other party's hesitation, Park Jung-hyuk thought about it and added weight to his own opinion. "I said, your DSP company is not just Lee Hyo-ri as a singer. I heard that your company is about to debut a group, so it's inevitable that you will participate in singing activities in the future, right? Rest assured, we at the Music Center will remember this kindness. When the time comes, they will be given the right positions to act, which will be beneficial to everyone. ”
This is based on the memory of his previous life, and in more than two months, SS501 will be born and become TVXQ's opponent.
After the dissolution of Crystal Boy and Fin.l.k, DSP was supported by Lee Hyo-ri.
They also know that the popularity of an artist will eventually pass, so they are seizing the time to cultivate a successor.
It can be said that Park Jung-hyuk relied on the advantage of the prophet and grasped the weakness of the other party at once.
I only heard a wry smile from the other side, and then responded: "PDxi, you are really a master of negotiation." Well, I said yes on behalf of the DSP company. I just hope that after the debut of our new group, PD will be able to take care of one or two. ”
After Park Jung-hyuk entered MBC, he didn't learn anything else, but he learned a lot. "Don't worry, Director. What are the capabilities of our MBC that you don't know yet? ”
got Lee Hyo-ri, which made Park Jung-hyuk feel good, and then found the phone number of Kim Jong-kook's agent.
Before 2006, the Korean music industry was still dominated by solo singers.
The myth is outstanding, and the Oriental gods are fledgling at the beginning, and they can't be compared with Lee Hyo-ri, Kim Jong Kook, Lee so-young, Rain, SE7EN and others.
So Lee Hyo-ri was invited, and Kim Jong Kook could not be ignored.
At this time, Kim Jong Kook had just released "A Man", and with the influence of "XMAN", it finally began to rise, and it was an opportunity to promote it more.
Since the dissolution of Turbo, Kim Jong Kook has left Mnet and has been violently suppressed by the original company.
If it weren't for the favor of SBS TV, as well as the help of Liu Zaishi, Jiang Hudong and others, he would definitely not be able to make a comeback.
Now Kim Jong Kook has no agency behind him, and he continues to be active alone, so he doesn't dare to offend the TV station at all.
Kim Jong Kook's agent promised that he would definitely attend on time when the time came, which also made Park Jung-hyuk less talkative.
The next contact person makes the protagonist a little excited, because it is Eric, the captain of the myth.
Shinhwa left S.M last year and joined GOOD, a company founded by the former director of S.M.
However, in the new company, Myth has the right to make its own decisions.
And the members of Shinhwa are also very intelligent, and often leave their contact information for the producers of various TV stations, so a direct communication channel is established.
It took a long time for the phone to be connected, and it seemed that because it was a strange call, the other party was very vigilant. "Hello, who is it?"
Park Jung-hyuk kept his voice steady and asked, "Is it the mythical Mr. Eric?" I'm Park Jung-hyuk PD of MBC's "Music Center". ”
Mythology became popular last year and officially became the first group of the Korean Wave, and many starred in "Music Center".
Eric recalled it carefully, and didn't remember which PD of "Music Center" called it, so he asked. "I don't know who is the PD in charge of your show?"
He is playing a trick, afraid that the other party has another purpose.
The producer of TV shows is not like celebrities, everyone knows it. If the other party is fake, they may not be able to know what the PD of "Music Center" is called.
This is not like a few years later, when Kim Tae-ho, Lee Myung-han, and Na Young-seok were famous.
Park Jung-hyuk also knew that he was not famous, so he honestly replied, "Our person in charge is Kim Young-kwon, not the one who plays football." ”
He also said that he laughed a little, which made the other side laugh out loud.
Seeing that he said the right name, the person was still very humorous, and the atmosphere was finally a little more harmonious. "Hello PD Park, is there anything wrong?"
Park Jung-hyuk stated the purpose as usual and emphasized the importance of this special.
Unlike Lee Hyo-ri and Kim Jong-kook, who only agreed, Eric has to take the initiative more.
While agreeing, he said, "PDxi, isn't this show divided into two venues?" So the exterior should also need an MC, right? Don't know if the members of our myth are suitable or not? ”
Park Jung-hyuk was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "If Myth can come to be the MC, it will be great news." I believe that if we Kim Young-kwon's PD knows, we will agree immediately. Please rest assured, I will respond to this question to him. ”
Eric said exaggeratedly: "Hey, I'm bothered. When we meet at MBC in the future, we will definitely thank PD. ”
While Park Jung-hyuk enjoyed the compliment, he also thought to himself, "This is how to be a man!" It's no wonder that myths have been popular for so many years, getting older and stronger. ”
He didn't talk casually, he hung up the phone and went to Kim Yingquan and talked about it.
Jin Yingquan was really happy and agreed on the spot. Let him tell the myth side, and Andy will be the male MC on the location.
As for the female MC, Kim Young-kwon asked Park Jung-hyuk to contact S.M Company.
There are many beautiful female idols in that company, and any one of them can be matched with Andy.
