Chapter 389: The Sword Refers to the Screenwriter
This café is newly opened this year, the main purpose is business-oriented, many business people come here to sit, but also to receive S&M company artists, there is a lot of distance between each table, and there is a bonsai separation, the concealment is very good.
Hee-sung found Song Bencheng and Jeon Ki-sang under the leadership of the waiter.
After greeting and taking a seat, Hee-sung casually ordered a cup of coffee and began to chat with the two.
Let's talk about the situation of TV dramas in the past year, especially when it comes to "Palace" starring Hee Sung, this TV series ended with a rating of 35.8 percent, and the average rating reached 27 percent.
It ranked seventh on the annual ratings list.
But when it comes to influence, it deserves to be the number one.
It made three newcomers popular - Yoon Eun-hye, Hee-sung, and Kim Jung-hoon, making these three singers who were originally penniless in the entertainment industry all among the first-class actors.
It has set off a new wave of Korean drama trends and greatly promoted the development of Korean dramas in Southeast Asia.
As for the peripheral goods, they are sold out of stock, which can really be described as fame and fortune.
Comparatively speaking, similar to variety shows, SBS TV station was pressed by MBC, only KBS is unwavering, but in terms of variety shows, KBS is worse than SBS, SBS can at least eat the old book of "x_man".
After talking for a while, the sea finally brought the topic to the point.
"Hee-sung, how are you thinking about it?" Song Bencheng asked: "This TV series is very important to our TV station, and we plan to launch it as an annual drama next year." ”
"What TV series?" Hee Cheng was at a loss: "There have been too many invitations to TV dramas recently, and there are TV dramas that will only start filming in the second half of next year to join in the fun." ”
"......" Song Bencheng was bitter: ""Witch Youxi", we have been waiting for your news. ”
This damn kid dared to ignore SBS TV so much, Song Bencheng couldn't wait to slap the table and scold, but thinking about Zhao Yichang's fate, he quickly restrained his anger.
"That TV series." Hee Sung frowned in annoyance, thought for a while and said, "It's similar to "Huang Zhenyi", they are all TV series that highlight female characters, and our company doesn't seem to be of much interest. ”
Shit, when did S&M take care of you.
"This can be coordinated," Jeon Ki-sang said, "There are only three episodes of the script now, and I can add some scenes for you in the future." ”
They are indeed very sincere, and it is not so easy to revise the script for the actors.
Hee Sung didn't expect them to be so easy to talk to, and scratched his hair in annoyance, "I didn't mean that." Frankly, I'm not optimistic about this TV series. ”
"Why, if there is no problem with the script, Miss Han Jiaren should be very appealing," Jeon Ki-sang, of course, did not give up, and he was notoriously cautious in choosing the script.
Hee Sung suddenly felt a little toothache, and Han Jiaren's appearance was indeed one of the main factors he wanted to refuse.
It's not that he thinks Han Jiaren's acting skills are not good, but he is worried that he has become a bad person.
Wife. In case something happens, how can you be worthy of Yuna.
As for his self-control, he has been used to doing whatever he wants over the years, and he really doesn't expect him to have any self-control.
"Miss Han Jiaren's acting skills are quite well received. And this drama is her transformation work, which is very topical," Song Bencheng said bewildermently: "And it's a beauty, even if it's pleasing to the eye, isn't it?" ”
One of these two people is a representative of a large company. One is a TV drama director, and no one will be idle to pay attention to gossip, not to mention that there is little news about Hee Sung and Han Jiaren on gossip.
In the eyes of most people. Hee Sung and Han Jia Ren are two parallel lines that do not cross each other.
"The plot is not very novel, such a layout, it is difficult to accommodate more things, and the tone of the TV series itself is also problematic......" Hee Sung began to analyze the script, and finally asked: "I have never heard of this screenwriter, is it a newcomer?" ”
"It's really a newcomer," Jeon Ki-sang nodded with a deep groan, "However, I think he has a good talent, this script is very creative, an office beauty OL, a frustrated and persistent young man......"
"Talent does not mean that you will be successful," Xicheng retorted unceremoniously: "I have no experience at all, you just let him control such a TV series, the heroine Han Jiaren, the male protagonist is looking for me, who is the second male lead?" ”
"Mr. Kim Jeong-hoon," a cold sweat began to break out on Jeon Ki-sang's forehead.
He also began to understand what Hee Sung meant.
In fact, what Xi Cheng said was not difficult for him to understand, but the authorities were confused, and he believed in his own vision, so he did not look at the problem from such a pessimistic perspective.
"If he can't handle this script, there will be a problem with the ratings," Hee Sung put forward a hypothesis to the point, "What are you going to do then?" ”
"Do you want to change the screenwriter?" Song Bencheng also began to understand what Hee-sung meant, he heard Jung Tae-hyun mention that what Hee-sung hates the most is to change the screenwriter.
Hee Sung really doesn't approve of changing screenwriters, and there are almost no TV series that go viral because of changing screenwriters.
Powerful people who will pick up people's teeth to revise other people's scripts, and it is not a problem to change ten or eight without strength, not to mention that only the screenwriter at the beginning understands the starting point and conception process of the TV series.
"A rookie screenwriter without any experience, a story that is not seamless, and there is no story tone throughout, such a script ......" Hee Sung sneered and threw the script on the table, "It's good to have a rating of 15 percent, and it depends on the actor's face." ”
In fact, although the ratings of "Witch Youxi" once reached 19 percent, it has been getting worse and worse since then, and finally almost fell below 10 percent, and finally ended up with an average rating of 14 percent.
This kind of ratings looks pretty good.
But think about Han Jiaren, think about Jae-hee, who has become a household name with "Haojie Chunhyang", and Kim Jung-hoon, who is all the rage with Prince Yul, such ratings can be called dismal.
It's no wonder that Han Jiaren, who is very good at talking when she thinks about it, publicly accused the screenwriter of being unreliable.
"Fifteen percent?" Jeon Ki-shang wanted to sneer, how could it be only fifteen percent, he really wanted to say that even if he closed his eyes, he could get more than twenty percent.
It's a pity he couldn't laugh.
For TV moviegoers, Hee-sung is like a spell.
Tong guò SBS relationship, he also knows. "Shamrock" can come back to life thanks to this kid, not to mention that there are "My Name is Jin Sanshun" with 51% of the ratings and "Palace" with 35% of the ratings.
If that's the case, then isn't this seventeen-year-old kid Hades.
Hades is a miracle in the investment world this year, investing in two films, both of which set new box office records in the history of Korean cinema.
Some people may not be able to reach that state in their lifetime, twice a year.
Such a person said that the ratings of this TV series could not exceed 15%, and he really had no confidence to refute it.
"As long as this screenwriter can't keep up, the TV series will be over," Hee-sung ignored the two who didn't look good, "Maybe the first few episodes are okay." Because he has gone through a long period of deliberation, but everyone knows that in the back, he is filming while making plays, whether a newcomer can withstand this kind of pressure. ”
Jeon Ki-sang could understand Hee-sung's words even more, and he couldn't help but be silent, and his originally firm belief completely lost its support.
"So what do you say you should do?" Song Bencheng saw Jeon Ki-sang's face and knew that what Hee-sung said was true, so he couldn't help but ask,
"Ugh." Hee-sung leaned lazily on the sofa, "This thing is very troublesome, so I don't want to take this drama, fifteen percent is actually a good TV series." TV stations don't lose money. ”
When Jeon Ki-sang and Song Bencheng heard this, their faces darkened.
Song Bencheng is okay, Hee Sung is right, as long as the TV series doesn't lose money. He has no responsibility.
But Jeon Ki is still different, from "Haojie Chunxiang" to "My Girl", the two films are all classics in Korean dramas. He has become a strong leader in the ranks of super-first-line Korean drama directors.
But if a 15% drama is filmed, his reputation will plummet, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he has fallen to the altar.
"Do you want to give up this drama, it has been in preparation for a long time, and the actors are almost all in place," rather than shoot a 15% TV series, Jeon Ki Shang would rather be free next year and not shoot a single drama.
"No, since the reason has been found, there is always a solution......" Song Bencheng quit, if the shooting plan is canceled, then he won't be able to eat and leave.
How charming is this feeling of being in control, Hee-sung took a deep breath, full of the mellow aroma of coffee.
"Hehe, Hee-sung, you can't stay out of it," Jeon Ki-sang said with a smile.
"It's not that there is no solution," Hee-sung squinted, his narrow eyeliner covered by thick long eyelashes, making it impossible to see the smugness contained in his eyes.
"Come on, it's good that my old Song owes you a favor," Song Bencheng was like a drowning man grasping a straw, and he couldn't calm down for a long time.
It is said that he is a middle-level TV station, even if he meets the giants of major brokerage companies, he can talk to each other on an equal footing, how can he ever treat an artist so lowly.
The main thing is that he was shocked by Hee Cheng's magic power, and no one understood how vicious this kid was.
"There are two ways," Hee Sung held out two fingers, his fingers were slender but thick, and white as jade, both of them were attracted to his fingers.
They can't wait for Hee Sung to stick out all his fingers, so that there are more options to choose from.
"First, the filming plan was postponed, and the screenwriter was asked to write the entire script and revise it until there were no defects before shooting," Hee-sung smiled at Jeon Ki-sang: "The seniors are experts in this area, so they must be able to judge whether the script is qualified or not." ”
"This method is safe to hear," Jeon Ki-shang nodded, he was also dazed, otherwise it would not be difficult to come up with this plan.
"And what about the second option, didn't you say there is another solution?" The first plan doesn't matter to Jeon Kisang, but it's not safe for Song Bencheng, if the filming is postponed, he will find a new TV series to make up for this gap.
