Chapter 7 The pressure is great

"You're an American, I've heard that you don't have to be twenty-one years old to drink there, and even though you're in South Korea now, are you sure it's okay?" In the Chinese restaurant in Chinatown, Mapo District, after watching Lee Chung-hee pour him soju and pour a glass himself, Park Dong-chan took the opportunity to joke.

Lee Chung-hee rolled his eyes with a smile, on the way here, the two talked happily, Park Dongzan asked him some questions about the filming of the TV series, and he was able to answer them very well, which also made Park Dongzan more satisfied with him, and naturally, the relationship between the two became closer.

Therefore, Lee Chung-hee also casually said to Park Dongzan, who claimed to be his uncle, at this time: "Uncle, in our family, I drank soju when I was five years old, not to mention, I am also Korean!" ”

The United States allows dual citizenship, and South Korea's current "Nationality Act" stipulates that South Koreans with dual nationality must choose a nationality before the age of 22, and Lee Chung-hee is only 18 years old now, so he also has dual citizenship in the United States and South Korea.

Park Dong-chan also understands this, so he just smiled. However, he suddenly looked at Lee Chung-hee and asked very seriously: "Jeong-hee, tell me, why are you so confident in the ratings of "Blue Life and Death Love"!" ”

He turned his head to stare at Zhang Dongguo again, and said, "Don't tell me that this is completely Director Zhang's decision, I can feel that Director Zhang has a good relationship with you and respects your opinion, which is also your blessing!" ”

Hearing him say this, Jang Dong-guk just smiled and didn't say anything, and Lee Chung-hee didn't want to talk nonsense anymore, of course, he couldn't say that he was a reborn, not to mention, that seemed to have no effect on this TV series.

Therefore, he could only reply in as convincing a way as possible: "Minister Park, if I say that I have 100% confidence, it is naturally a lie, but I believe in my ability and vision first, and I didn't write this script casually, it is a script that I think is a great ...... after carefully studying the TV series here."

It has a twisty plot, a bitter and sad love, if according to my expectations, when filming, coupled with eye-catching heroes and heroines and beautiful scenery, this qiē will perfectly build its popular basic ....... ”

Park Dong-chan is not a hairy young man anymore, he has experienced too much, so although what Lee Chung-hee said seems to be very reasonable and beautiful, these are just very superficial and superficial things, and they are not enough to make him ecstatic.

Of course, it's not ineffective, after all, Lee Chung-hee's reputation as a little genius is there, and there are always some pluses, so Park Dong-zan took the initiative to pick up the wine glass and touch it with Lee Chung-hee, and after a mouthful, he slapped the table, "Well said, I, like you, also hope that this TV series will become a hit." ”

South Korea began to implement the separation of production and broadcasting in 91, although this system was not smooth and thorough because of the boycott of TV stations, but the entire TV industry was slowly transformed and developed because of the introduction of this system.

This is because, in the era of integrated production and broadcasting, even if the ratings and audience feedback are not good, for the common good, the broadcaster is unlikely to cut the TV series, and, because of the common interests, advertisers will not have the power to decide on advertising investment based on ratings and audience feedback after one or two episodes or even three or four episodes of the TV series are broadcast (China is the integration of production and broadcasting, and advertisers invest in advertising before the TV series is broadcast, and the result depends on the sky).

In the process of TV series broadcasting, once the ratings, advertising investment and even audience feedback are not good, the TV series may be cut at any time, so that the losses caused will be completely borne by the producer.

At the same time, this is also the reason why now, the producer will not broadcast the TV series after filming the TV series, but will shoot four to eight episodes first, broadcast it first, and wait for the ratings to come out, and even shoot according to the audience's feedback.

Of course, even if this is the case, if the TV series is too bad and is cut in half, the producer will still lose money and call his father in the end, because the preparation of a TV series can take three or five months at every turn, and it is not uncommon for one or two years more, so the cost is already very high.

Therefore, Lee Chung-hee understands Park Dong-chan's mood when he says this, although he is not an independent producer, but the separation of production and broadcasting also indicates that his work performance evaluation has a more accurate measurement standard, and if one is not good, it will also suffer.

Jingle bell, Lee Chung-hee was about to say a few words of relief to this guy who admired him very much, when the phone suddenly rang.

"I'm sorry!" Lee Chung-hee took out the phone, nodded to Park Chung-hee, opened the flip cover and took a look, but it was an unfamiliar number, and his mind suddenly changed, so he gave the phone to Zhang Dongguo, and then whispered a few words to him.

Zhang Dongguo was stunned for a moment, then nodded and connected, "Hello, who is it, I'm Zhang Dongguo, Lee Chung-hee's agent!" ”

"Oh, hello!" The caller over there was also stunned for a moment, and then said, "I'm Gao Zuodong of TuBe Entertainment, and we appreciate Mr. Lee Chung-hee's script very much, and I plan to make an appointment with him to talk about ......." ”

"This kid!" Zhang Dongguo secretly sighed in his heart, and he really said that he would come, but he said in his mouth: "Oh, okay, thank you for your appreciation, you see how Friday is, Zhengxi is talking about a project with kBs in the past few days......." ”

Zhang Dongguo did not say the specific project, but vaguely showed the value of Lee Chung-hee, at the same time, Friday is the day after tomorrow, that is, in three days, this time is not long or short, it will not make people impatient, and it is not too urgent, not to mention, it is also best to leave room for time.

And what he said just now, it can also be seen that Zhang Dongguo's human feelings are skilled.

After answering the phone, Zhang Dongguo and Lee Chung-hee glanced at each other, and then said casually: "TuBe Entertainment has taken a fancy to your movie script and plans to talk to you about ......." ”

Lee Chung-hee had already guessed it just now, so he said this to Park Dong-chan, in order to make Park Dong-chan have more confidence in Lee Chung-hee.

Sure enough, as soon as Park Dongzan heard this, he immediately glared at Lee Chung-hee, and after a while, he smiled and patted Lee Chung-hee's shoulder and said, "Good boy, you are really a genius, in addition to TV drama scripts, there are also movie scripts!" ”

Lee Chung-hee pretended to smile shyly, touched his nose, and said, "Minister Park, don't worry, I will focus almost all my energy on the TV series here......." ”

"Of course!" Park Dongzan was only happy at this time, and the phone call just now also proved his vision, not to mention, in South Korea, the workload of film screenwriters is much less than that of screenwriters of TV series, and it can even be said that after writing the script, you can basically be the shopkeeper.

Therefore, there can be said to be very little conflict between the two.

With the good news, Park Dong-chan's interest was also high, and after drinking for a while, he opened up the conversation and talked about some things that Lee Chung-hee didn't know yet: "The competition between kBs and mBc has been going on for a long time, and we can still overpower each other in the current affairs news, but in terms of TV dramas, we have not been optimistic in recent years."

And this year's situation looks even worse, perhaps, in terms of historical river dramas, they have "Xu Jun", we also have "Taizu Wang Jian", although it is a little worse, but not much, but in terms of romance dramas, at the beginning of the year, they have "Beautiful Lies", and our best is "Heavenly Love", you know, the ratings of the fourth episode of "Beautiful Lies" have rushed to almost forty points, while our "Heavenly Love" is only twelve and eight .......

That's not all, next, in the plan they announced, "Falling in Love with a Female Anchor" is completely a copy of sBs "Tianqiao Fengyun", several important protagonists Zhang Dongjian, Han Jae-suk, and Cai Lin have not changed any of them, and then, I also heard that they have signed a contract with Liu Shiyuan, the popular actor in the now popular "Beautiful Lies", for the second half of the TV series, and the name seems to be called "Secret".

Coupled with Ahn Jae-wook's "Bad Friends", Kim Seung-woo and Choi Ji-woo's "Upstart Son", etc., they are planning to completely dominate the fashion romance drama market for the whole year this year, and their ambitions are very big, but we don't have any projects on our side, and even all the schedules of the hottest big stars have almost filled up ...... for the damn mBc. ”

Speaking of this, Park Dongzan patted Lee Chung-hee on the shoulder and said with emotion: "Now, "Blue Life and Death Love" is a life-saving straw for us, and it is also a key project of this year's TV production zuò second department, not only me, but the vice president of the entire department, including the vice president of the headquarters, has high expectations for it, so I ...... it." ”

In South Korea, the screenwriter and producer of TV dramas basically have the same weight, and it can even be said that sometimes it is not an exaggeration that a good screenwriter can decide the fate of a TV series.

Lee Chung-hee understood this, and also understood Park Dongzan's expectations, nodded solemnly, and continued: "I know, Minister Park, I will definitely work hard!" ”

Although, as far as he knows, a "Blue Life and Death Love" can't save kBs's decline in the TV bureau at all, you must know that the future mBc is known as the "Kingdom of Korean Dramas", and most of the TV dramas in South Korea come from this TV station.

However, whether it is for himself or for this excellent TV series, he will take it very seriously.

Thinking of this, I suddenly had a thought, and then said to Park Dongzan again: "Maybe it's a little presumptuous, but I still want to solemnly recommend to Minister Park the director candidate in my mind!" ”

In Park Dong-chan's surprised "Oh! After a sigh, he continued: "I have always admired Director Yoon Seok-ho's shooting style, of course, this time it is not because of personal emotional appreciation...... ”

Again, before he finished speaking, Park Dong-chan interrupted him, and then with a stunned smile on his face, "What, do you think Yoon Seok-ho is suitable for this TV series!" ”

At this point, the two men looked at each other, and then they both smiled.

And Park Dong-chan felt that Lee Chung-hee had an appetite for him and trusted him more.
