Chapter 158: A Road in Huashan
Looking at everyone's enthusiastic and imposing appearance, no one noticed the melancholy in Park Jung-hyuk's eyes. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
After working at MBC for a long time, I have become a human spirit. In many cases, it is possible to detect abnormalities just by feeling them.
Sure enough, the next day, Park Jung-hyuk ran into Jung Jong-ha.
"Oh, Park PD, you see, it's the right choice to come back and do the show. Tsk, 25% ratings, the first place in the iron-clad Sunday file, you can be praised as a flower now. ā
In the face of the director's compliment, Park Jung-hyuk was not happy at all.
Because the second season of "I Am a Singer" was live-streamed, the ratings could be queried early the next morning.
Because it was a brutal knockout round, the ratings of the second episode were even better than the first episode.
Not surprisingly, Zheng Ye, Lee so-young and Yoon Mi-rae all made it to the top of the search list.
It's just that Zheng Ye must not want this search popularity, because it is too embarrassing.
participated in "I Am a Singer" twice in a row, but was eliminated in the shortest possible time, which made his reputation suffer a huge impact.
Therefore, on the Internet, his fans and black fans started a heated debate.
Fans generally believe that shows like "I Am a Singer" are not friendly enough to a tender singer like Zheng Ye. Whoever has the best treble will win.
Zheng Ye's loss is here, this is not his real level.
And the black fans were elated, accusing Zheng Ye's fans of moaning without illness. Since it is a stage for singers, it is necessary to show the strength of singers.
Being eliminated once may be an accident, but two consecutive rounds of tours show that Zheng Ye's strength is not as powerful as he boasts.
Compared with Zheng Yelai, Li Xiuying and Yin Meilai's listing is much more positive.
In the first round of the competition, Li Xiuying was among the best. And in the second round, he won the first place.
Not only was her strength recognized, but her adaptation and singing of "Marriage" also made it to the list, becoming the hottest singer at the moment.
Many viewers who came over in that era sighed that Li Xiuying deserves to be Li Xiuying. After many years, the strength is still so strong.
As for Yoon Meilai's debut, the response was explosive.
The confidentiality of the previous program team was in place, and the outside world didn't know about this killer feature at all.
When Yoon Meilai appeared on the stage, it was not only the audience who was dumbfounded, but also many entertainment media.
Because of the appearance of Yoon Meilai, the impression of "I Am a Singer" in everyone's minds has undergone a huge turn.
It turns out that it is not a sacred place for traditional singers, and it can accommodate other forms of music.
This kind of "I Am a Singer" is even more exciting, isn't it?
Several reasons added up to cause "I Am a Singer" to continue to suppress "Runningman" and become the ratings champion of the Sunday file.
However, Park Jung-hyuk is self-aware and knows that this trend is only a short-term effect. If you have a long-term confrontation with "Runningman", the advantage of "I Am a Singer" is not so obvious.
Especially when he got the news, "Runningman" has reached a cooperation with South Korean sports king Park Ji-sung.
In South Korea, the status of athletes is much higher than that of entertainers. Among them, Park Ji-sung is even more unique.
As Asia's most accomplished footballer, Park Ji-sung's status in the hearts of the South Korean people has reached the realm of God.
There is such a huge topic there, and it is foreseeable that in the next time, "I Am a Singer" will definitely be difficult to contend with.
The most important thing is that although the second season of "I Am a Singer" has changed a lot, it has not changed a lot. The overall program is still the same framework, so the freshness will never break through.
Park Jung-hyuk knows that after a few more episodes, the ratings will definitely fall.
So when facing Jung Jong-ha, Park Jung-hyuk was very calm.
"It's just the right timing, not that the show is really unique. Specifically, it is better to look at the long-term. ā
ate soft nails here with Park Jung-hyuk again, but Jung Jong-ha is used to it.
"Eh, why should Park PD be presumptuous? Who doesn't know what you're capable of in the Republic of Korea today? Keep up the good work, you have to stabilize the results of Sunday. ā
Park Jung-hyuk's brows furrowed, annoyed by this person's unrealistic fantasies.
"Director, in my vision, the ratings of the show can be maintained at about 15%, which is the biggest victory."
What he said was the truth, but Zheng Zhonghe didn't agree.
"Pak PD, you're still young. Young people should be energetic and fearless. But how do I think your actions are similar to those of an old man like me? Don't be afraid, the Arts and Entertainment Bureau will fully support you. ā
Park Jung-hyuk had a gloomy face, looking at the back of Jung Jong-ha, and had a premonition that the future was not good.
He is very mature now, so when he thinks about problems, he is no longer superficial.
Although Zheng Zhonghe is an outsider and does not have any experience as a producer, it does not mean that such a person really does not understand the rules of variety show production at all.
On the contrary, Park Jung-hyuk can be sure that Jung Jong-ha must be very clear that today's MBC is not enough to compete with SBS in the field of arts.
The reason is simple, MBC's eyes are not here, they are all busy fighting for power.
Except for "I Am a Singer", all other programs were suspended.
SBS is different, and now programs such as "Runningman" and "The Law of the Jungle" are in full bloom and are very lively.
"I Am a Singer" is equivalent to fighting the momentum of the entire broadcasting company with its own strength.
Rao is Park Jung-hyuk has three heads and six arms, and it is impossible to win this hopeless war. Not to mention, even against "Runningman", he may not be able to do it.
With such an obvious situation, it is impossible for Zheng Zhonghe not to know. But he still did it, and put strong pressure on Park Jung-hyuk.
That can only explain one problem, a very serious problem.
That is, the days of the current president, Kim Jae-cheol, are almost over, and even his close confidant Jung Jong-ha sees this trend.
Husbands and wives fly separately when disaster strikes, not to mention their relationship of joint interests.
Jung Jong-ha obviously knows that as Kim Jae-chol's cronies, once his boss is finished, then he will not be much better.
But as long as you are human, you will never be willing to be unlucky.
If Park Jung-hyuk expected it to be right, Jung Jong-ha must have his back to Kim Jae-cheol, and he doesn't know which high branch he climbed.
Now the only thing he has to do is to make dazzling achievements in the post of director of the Arts and Performing Arts Bureau.
In this way, even if he leaves MBC in the future, he will have a good place to go, and he will still eat and drink spicy food.
This idea is similar to Kim Jae-cheol, but it all puts pressure on Park Jung-hyuk.
After figuring out the reason, Park Jung-hyuk sighed powerlessly, knowing that there were more difficult situations waiting for him ahead.
Kim Tae-hee told him that once people go crazy because of interests, they are the most terrible.
Now that Kim Jae-cheol or Jung Jong-ha have all put the hope of resurrection on him, maybe how will they oppress him?
And how to get out of this situation, Park Jung-hyuk hasn't thought about it for a while.
But one thing he is clear about is that it is impossible to expect "I Am a Singer" to suppress "Runningman" all the time.
At the same time, the internal problems of "I Am a Singer" are not small.
The first thing to say is that this live broadcast, although it has only been carried out for one episode, Park Jung-hyuk has already received a lot of feedback from the singer.
Almost all singers are stressed by this new situation, even to the point of insomnia.
They are all worried that if they make a mistake during the live broadcast, it will deal a fatal blow to their reputation.
is also because of this slot, the program team also encountered a great dilemma when inviting follow-up singers.
There are really many singers who refuse to agree to the invitation after hearing that the show is in the form of live broadcast.
The stage of "I Am a Singer" is admittedly attractive, but the gameplay of the live broadcast is still too exciting.
To put it bluntly, there are many people who are not confident enough in their own strength. Rather than being famous with the help of the show, it is better not to be scolded.
When deciding to adopt the mode of live broadcasting, Park Jung-hyuk had this problem in mind.
But since you want to do "I Am a Singer", there is only such a gimmick as live broadcasting that can be played. There is no way to elevate the show in other forms.
Therefore, he managed to override public opinion and only arranged the schedule of the show for about five months.
Now seeing Jung Jong-ha's performance, Park Jung-hyuk is more and more determined in his thoughts.
This show must not be done for too long.
According to his memory, in another month or two, the situation within MBC will be decided. Although it was the toughest time, he had to grit his teeth and get through.
After Kim Jae-cheol and Jung Jong-ha leave, although he will receive much less support, he will not have to bear pressure from both sides.
For a top producer like him, as long as there is not much interference outside, it is still easy to produce a good show.
Park Jung-hyuk is now in charge of the production of MBC's Sunday show, and even if it doesn't need to be said by Jung Jong-ha, he hopes to take out "Runningman" and become the overlord of Sunday.
One mountain does not tolerate two tigers, not to mention that he Park Jung-hyuk is now famous, and he doesn't want to be the head of other producers to brush up on honors.
However, he knows better that the show that can kill "Runningman" will definitely not be "I Am a Singer".
And in his memory, there are many such shows.
But without exception, those classic programs are not suitable for today's chaotic times.
Wait, it's the darkest time before dawn, and only the strongest and hardest will get through.
Now in front of Park Jung-hyuk is just a road in Hwasan.
No matter how many dangers and difficulties there are ahead, he has no way out, so he can only bite the bullet and work hard against the wind and sand.
He believes in his team and his ability, and he will definitely be able to rush through.
After smoothing out the idea, Park Jung-hyuk mustered up Yu Yong and began to devote himself to the recording of the follow-up program in June. (To be continued.) )
