Chapter 21 Meetings in Progress

A group of people disturbed for a long time before slowly dispersing.

When the three presidents walked out of the crowd, Cui Zhengyuan and the five came up to meet them. Li Xiuman and the others were old acquaintances with them, and they talked with each other affectionately for a long time.

Cui Zhengyuan, as a junior, patiently waited for them to finish their greetings before stepping forward to greet the three presidents.

These three people have different complexions and different attitudes towards Cui Zhengyuan.

KBS's president, Kim Wan-hyung, is smiling at everyone and seems very kind, which is very in line with KBS's impartial attitude. even patted Cui Zhengyuan's shoulder affectionately, with the attitude of an elder meeting a close son and nephew.

The president of MBC, Jeon Shan Man, looked cold, his hand only touched Choi Jung-won a little and then withdrew it, nodded imperceptibly, and walked straight over. This guy was personally appointed by President Kim Dae-z, and he is the right-hand man of the MZ Party in the new millennium, so it is impossible for him to have any good impression of Choi Jung-won.

Only SBS president Li Tianzai enthusiastically grabbed his hand and did not hide his close relationship with Cui Zhengyuan, and said with a smile: "Isn't this Zhengyuan?" Little guy, yes, yes, this executive is doing a lot of good." Li Tianzai is a pure businessman and has many dealings with the Cui family. Cui Zhengyuan had met him a few times with his mother, and the two sides were very familiar.

Cui Zhengyuan hurriedly saluted, "Uncle Li is good, I haven't seen you for many days, you are in good health." My father and mother have always said that I want to invite you to my house."

Li Tianzai waved his hand casually, and said with a smile: "I won't go to your house, when I see your grandfather, maybe I will be taught a lesson by the old man again." Help me tell your parents that we have time to go golf together."

"I'll tell you. When the time comes, I'll be cheeky enough to visit you, but don't bother me. It's been a long time since I've seen Brother Haoyu, and I miss him very much." The Haoyu that Cui Zhengyuan said is Li Tianzai's son, who is two years older than him. The two have a similar temper and are very good friends.

"Zhengyuan, you're not even seventeen, why don't you go to school? It's really true that you're at home, you're still so young, it's not good for you to learn something, so I'll let you deal with these people, what if you suffer a loss?" Zuihou said a few words, and Li Tianzai said it in a voice that only two people could hear.

Hearing the other party complaining about the elders in the family, Cui Zhengyuan hurriedly explained: "This is also something that can't be helped, this time the company is reorganized, there are too many things." There wasn't enough people in the family, so I was asked to help. Besides, I've learned almost all the middle school curriculum, and staying in school is a waste of time."

Li Tianzai was deeply touched, wrapped his hands together, and sighed: "That's right, you have always been so good since you were a child, and you don't know how your parents educated you." Look at that little brute in my house again, two heads in three days to get into trouble", he said, and gestured next to his head, "I'm doing it, my head is big."

Li Haoyu belongs to the kind of person who can do things and likes to play something more exciting. For example, racing, fighting, parkour and bungee jumping, there is nothing he dare not play. And this guy has been a gentleman since he was a child, and the women around him have never been broken. Therefore, from childhood to adulthood, he was not less educated. The reference of every time is Cui Zhengyuan without exception, and he complains every time he meets.

Cui Zhengyuan comforted: "Brother Haoyu is still young, when he is older, he will be mature."

Li Tian was eating the taste: "You're not big, why haven't I seen you cause trouble?" I don't want him to grow much, just be honest."

Cui Zhengyuan rubbed his nose in embarrassment, he never caused trouble. Whenever something happens, it's a big thing, and you can't even go to school. Hurriedly changed the topic and said: "Today, there are still some official matters to discuss with Uncle Li."

"Then we'll talk about it when the meeting is over." Realizing that the conversation was too long, Li Tianzai stopped. After saying a word, he turned around and walked to the seat of the conference next to him.

The people on the side originally saw Cui Zhengyuan and Lu Wuyuan talking, and they had a premonition that he was unusual. Now that I see that even the president of SBS greets him with a smile, I realize that the estimate just now is still a little low. For a while, people inquired about his situation.

The three presidents were already in place, and everyone else had found their seats.

Lu Wuyuan, who was in charge of presiding over the meeting, officially announced the opening of the meeting.

The first topic of the meeting was a summary of the year 2000.

The representatives of the three TV stations presented their respective situations to the crowd in detail, including the quality of the program, the evaluation of the artists, the ratings, and so on. The heads of the entertainment companies below were engrossed, for fear of missing a word, even the predators like Li Xiuman were no exception.

Don't underestimate this summary, every sentence, every word, any haode or bad evaluation in it may indicate the attitude of the TV station towards a brokerage company.

For example, if KBS TV says that one of the programs has a poor evaluation and the ratings have dropped repeatedly, then the entertainment company to which the artist is a regular guest of the program is likely to receive a cold reception from KBS.

If MBC says that the monthly fire drama in July and August this year did not achieve the expected ratings due to quality reasons, then the actors who starred in this drama may not be able to star in MBC's drama for some time to come.

Every word contains huge economic benefits. Cui Zhengyuan didn't dare to be careless, took the summary report, and carefully studied it word by word.

But fortunately, A.P has just been founded. Although some of the company's artists have been active in the three major TV stations in the past year, since they are all singers, they occasionally participate in some variety shows. Most of them are singing shows, so this report doesn't have a big impact on A.P.

It lasted for an hour before the summary was over. The presidents below, some are smiling, some are sad, some are anxious, and some are calm. Looking at it, it is really a hundred beings gathered together.

Ignoring those small fish and shrimp, Cui Zhengyuan focused on observing the four major companies. Lee so-man and Cha Seung-jae smiled like Maitreya Buddha, and it seemed that they were getting good news. On the contrary, Park Jin-young and Yang Hyun-seok looked solemn.

Cui Zhengyuan thought about it carefully and knew the reason.

Although JYP and YG can also be said to be well-known entertainment companies in South Korea, they are still slightly inferior to ** at this stage. JYP's current well-known artists are GOD and Park Ji-yin. As a boy group, GOD has always been overwhelmed by HOT and mythology, and no matter how hard he tries, he can't surpass his opponents. Therefore, in terms of TV stations, there is a difference in the importance of both sides. JYP, which Park Ji-yin switched to last year, has just released an album, and the feedback from the market is still unclear. The TV station is also waiting, whether to give more opportunities, it depends on the sales and impact of this album.

YG is even worse, with a huge reputation, but the successive artists have suffered Waterloo, and it is even more difficult to make a profit in terms of TV stations.

In this regard, although Choi Jung-won decided to form an alliance with JYP and YG, there was nothing he could do.

But it doesn't matter, after waiting for another two years, after the debut of Rain and Se7en, the two companies will usher in a turnaround and start making great strides.

Next, the meeting entered the most important part - the three major television stations began to announce the broadcast arrangements for 2001.

Although the three major television stations are involved in broadcasting, they have different emphasis.

SBS is a powerhouse of variety shows, and there are many excellent entertainment programs that attract the attention of the audience every year.

MBC relies on TV dramas and is known as the kingdom of TV dramas. Since the statistics began, MBC has accounted for as much as two-thirds of the TV dramas with ratings of more than 50%.

KBS is the national television station and the largest terrestrial broadcast block in South Korea. It has a great reputation among the public for its objective and truthful news reporting.

Because of the different focuses, the entertainment companies present do not have to attend all the broadcast scheduling meetings, but only need to understand the relevant business scope.

In the venue, people kept coming and going. The only thing that makes people stand out is that Cui Zhengyuan has never moved, and he has participated in the meetings of the three TV stations throughout the whole process. Even **, JYP, and YG only participated in the song program and the upcoming year-end ceremony; Cha Seung-jae only participated in the acting awards about the drama section and the end of the year.

Cui Zhengyuan's move once again became the focus of attention of the audience. You must know that he didn't let go of even the entertainment shows that funny artists paid attention to. Not only that, but he also asked SBS TV about the arrangement of the entertainment program. Everyone is not stupid, and it is clear at a glance that A.P has the ambition to enter the entertainment industry.

The meeting ended at 11 p.m., after which it was time for free networking and MBC provided a buffet cocktail reception.

Choi Jung-won went straight to KBS President Kim Wan-hyung, "Hello, President Kim."

After a two-hour meeting, Jin Wanjiong was a little tired and planned to rest. When I heard someone say hello and looked back, it turned out to be the youngest executive Cui in the venue, so I smiled and said, "Executive Cui, I don't know what you have to do"?

The other party came as the person in charge of the company, and he was not good at putting on the shelf of the elders. What's more, KBS is also used to neutrality, and although it is strong, it can't just provoke giants like C.J Group.

"President Kim, if it's convenient, I'd like to discuss with you about the cooperation between you and me. I have a jihua here, and I would like to tell you more about it." Facing the president of national television, Cui Zhengyuan seemed calm.

Jin Wanjiong glanced around, and after confirming that there was no one around, he said, "Can Executive Director Cui reveal what exactly Jihua is?"

"It's like this, the writer of our company, created a script. Therefore, I would like to co-produce with Guitai."

"TV series? weishenme is not looking for MBC, don't they have a greater advantage than us in this regard"? Jin Wanjiong was puzzled.

Cui Zhengyuan said with a wry smile: "MBC is famous, everyone wants a piece of the pie, there are more monks and less porridge, and our A.P company still doesn't join in the excitement."

Jin Wanjiong groaned, carefully observed that Cui Zhengyuan's expression did not seem to be fake, and said, "Then let's go to the lounge to talk in detail"?

To be honest, it's no wonder that KBS isn't greedy to see MBC's great achievements in TV dramas for several years in a row. But in terms of TV dramas, KBS is originally a weakness, and its strength is not good, so I have to sigh. Now, Cui Zhengyuan has sent it to the door, and Jin Wanjiong's suppressed mind has become active again.

In South Korea, the three major TV stations have cooperation, but it is more of a competitive relationship. Who doesn't want to take the lead and let the other two doom. It's just that South Korea is so big, and there is not much room for development where they originally had strengths.

Therefore, in recent years, the three TV stations have begun to work on their own shortcomings, hoping to win with comprehensive strength.
