Chapter 482: Fan Resentment
After getting rid of Lee so-man, Choi Jung-won contacted Park Jin-young and Yang Hyun-seok respectively.
It can be heard that they are very satisfied with Cui Zhengyuan's choice, and they all readily agreed to cooperate.
As Choi Jung-won had guessed, YG didn't have any talent, so Yang Hyun-seok took the initiative to win a position on the judges.
It's just that Park Jin-young can't get his wish because he is preparing for the concert and doesn't have time. However, he recommended Park Zhiyin, the first sister of JYP.
This is obviously a deliberate choice made after learning about the judges of other companies.
Don't underestimate just a judge, that represents the face of the company. Especially when juxtaposed with the other three companies, the underweight of the candidate will only lose the right to speak.
At present, except for Park Jin-young and Park Ji-yin, there is no one in JYP company who can compare with KangTa, Kim Jong Kook, and Yang Hyun Suk.
In addition to these four people, HBC TV also invited Kim Chaohan, the founder of R&B, and Yoon Do-hyun of the YB band.
These two are the leading authorities on R&B and rock music in the Korean music scene, respectively, and they happen to take care of various styles in the field of various styles when combined with KangTa of SMP, Kim Jong Kook of lyrical style, Yang Hyun Suk of hip-hop rap, and Park Ji-eun of electronic dance music.
HBC TV is working very quickly, and the preliminary preparations are almost in place. The propaganda work has also been carried out in full swing, which has aroused great repercussions in society.
The registration for the audition was very good, with more than 30,000 people signing up for the competition.
Preliminary auditions are expected to be held in 16 administrative regions across the country and in major concentrations of Koreans such as the United States and China.
The passing contestants will be gathered in Seoul for the second round of selection.
At this point, the 16 winners will advance to the finals and compete in Zuihou.
Because of the hot response from the outside world, advertisers are also actively coming to the door.
According to Choi Jung-won's latest information, more than 18 advertisers have been eligible for sponsorship.
At that time, their ads will appear in the interval between the shows.
In order to compete for the time slot when the advertisement is broadcast. The competition is fierce. Even if HBC raised its price several times, it did not discourage advertisers.
In order to balance the dispute, Zuihou still adopted the method proposed by Cui Zhengyuan.
Through PPL, advertisements are placed in the program. For example, the drinks that the judges drank, the contestants' uniforms, the banners in the arena, and so on.
This is the first time that South Korea's entertainment programs have been connected to PPL advertising, and it is also Choi Jung-won's speculation that has seized the gap in laws and regulations.
You must know that in a few years, the release committee will often issue fines because of PPL. Popular programs such as "Infinite Challenge", "RunningMan" and "Two Days and One Night" have been repeatedly recruited and become frequent guests who have been punished.
But let's be honest, PPL is the way to go.
In order to increase revenue, TV stations will inevitably find ways to attract advertisers.
PPL is not as aesthetically fatigued as explicit advertising, and is undoubtedly more attractive.
The only thing to be aware of. It's that when it comes to product placement, you can't go too far.
Otherwise, after the whole show, the audience's eyes are full of various brands, and the mind of watching will definitely be affected.
As a result, word-of-mouth declines, viewership drops, and advertiser enthusiasm decreases, creating a vicious cycle.
Fortunately, South Korea's TV industry is still more conscientious, and the government controls it strictly. No one would fail to overdo it.
After helping HBC, Cui Zhengyuan was idle.
After thinking about it, he logged on to the company's official website forum.
In order to prepare for Facebook and Twitter in the future, Choi Jung-won has been asking the company's artists. Every once in a while, I have to log in to the official website forum to post some experiences or photos or something to interact with fans.
In the spirit of taking the lead, he is also very diligent.
This time I was busy for a few months, and I haven't seen it on it. Presumably the fans are in a hurry to wait.
After entering the forum, I found his exclusive page and found that it was still as lively as ever.
Posting, hooking up, organizing events, discussing music and movies. There are many types and everything is encompassing.
It seems that they have inherited the character of idols, and the natives have also learned to entertain themselves in ordinary times.
Haven't been here for months, good guy, his mailbox is about to explode, and the system prompts nearly five hundred more unread messages.
Click on it one by one, and find that most of it is boring text of confession.
After filtering, there was something valuable left, and he savored it.
One of the most interesting is because the fan's tone is full of resentment.
"Oba, it's been almost two years. What about the new songs? I don't know if we're in a hurry? Woo woo, I've saved money for so long, just waiting for Oba's new song to come out, so I can buy it and enjoy it slowly. As a result, there was no news for more than a year. ”
"I can't help but send this message to you, just to say it. Oba, let's have a new song. We had all heard badly before, and our ears were almost calloused. ”
"Also, can Oba fulfill the wishes of our local fans? We are glad that you can make a name for yourself. But after all, we are Koreans, so I really want to see Oba singing Kpop. ”
Rubbing his chin, Cui Zhengyuan was also a little ashamed.
As a boss, he is barely qualified. But if you're an artist, especially an idol, you're really sorry.
The idols of other people's fans come in and out every day, and various activities continue one after another. I can't wait to release a new song a day to enjoy the fans.
When it came to him, except for the single "Cup of Life" and the official album "Itismylife", there were only a few soundtracks for film and television works.
There has been no new song released for a year and seven months, no wonder fans are full of resentment.
It's time to give back to these fans who haven't changed their minds.
Thinking so, Cui Zhengyuan posted a pinned post in the forum.
The blue font that can only be used by artists from A.P is unusually eye-catching.
"I'm really sorry for everyone, but I hurt you for a long time. But I'm so busy with mundane things that I ignore your feelings. I have received your love. It's time to give back to everyone, so I've decided to release my first Korean mini album in January 2004. ”
Cui Zhengyuan doesn't even know how many people browse the forum every day. So when the blue top post appeared, the news spread like it had grown wings.
Countless fans who were looking forward to it couldn't help but burst into tears after learning the news.
Their wishes were finally heard by the idol, and he did not disappoint everyone. The first Korean album is really the most haode news of the year.
Cui Zhengyuan hadn't withdrawn from the forum yet, but he received a call from Han Chenghao.
"Zhengyuan, you want to release a new song? But is the schedule out of schedule? There have been a lot of people singing in our company recently. Director Han said with a little resentment.
When a singer releases a song, he has to discuss with the company and the producer before he can determine the details.
But this executive is good. The news was revealed without a sound. Even the people in the music production department don't know about it.
"Hehe, I'm just temporary. I'm sorry, brother, I'm messing with your jihua. But it doesn't matter, Sister Xiaoli's follow-up is released in October. Lee Seung-gi debuted in December, and I released a mini album in January. Then in February, Brother Zhong Guo returned, just staggered. Cui Zhengyuan didn't really mess around, he also made a decision after thinking about it.
But Han Chenghao obviously wouldn't stop there, and asked, "Yes." Schedules can be staggered. But if you don't have manpower, how are you going to record a song? ”
He himself is supervising the follow-up of Lee Hyori, which will not end until next month.
Jung Jae-seung is helping Hwang Chan-seok prepare a comeback album for Kim Jong Kook, and he is also busy not knowing the southeast and northwest.
PSY is in charge of Lee Seung Gi's debut. Leessang went to the United States again.
All of a sudden, there were no producers in A.P's music production department, except for JEA and Sinshadong Tigers.
The problem is these two little young. At this time, he has not been independent in charge, where can Han Chenghao rest assured.
Cui Zhengyuan didn't care, and said with a smile: "Brother." Have you forgotten? I'm also a music producer. With JEA and Tiger to fight me, plus Quan Zhilong, it's enough. ”
Hearing something, Han Chenghao asked tentatively, "Do you have an idea for songs?" ”
It has only been half an hour since Cui Zhengyuan announced the news on the forum.
This is not a matter of Jihua, but a temporary idea.
Could it be that this little guy is really so wicked that he can already compose good songs at will?
In fact, it was Han Chenghao who misunderstood this time, because Cui Zhengyuan didn't have any ideas.
It's just that I read the fans' messages and know that it's time to release a Korean album.
As for which songs to choose, he still needs to go back and select them before he can decide.
It's just that with a huge amount of inventory, Cui Zhengyuan believes that it will not be too difficult. Plus it's a mini album, three or four songs are enough.
The amount of work is much smaller, and it is not difficult to complete at all.
"No, but it should be soon." Cui Zhengyuan said truthfully.
Hearing this, Han Chenghao finally balanced a little.
You must know that he supervised the follow-up of Lee Hyori, and he has racked his brains for the remaining song.
It wasn't until the day before yesterday that a lyrical song that was in line with Lee Hyo-ri's philosophy was released, and it is still unknown when the recording will be completed.
If Cui Zhengyuan divides five by two, it will be finished, so how can he, a veteran producer, be embarrassed.
"Then you can set up your own production team, I don't have the energy to ask." Han Sung-ho Zuihou confessed, and went to get Lee Hyori's album.
Shaking his head, Choi Jung-won put down the phone amusedly.
The older he gets, the more he has a child-like temper.
Even who makes the song faster has to be compared.
So this time, let's have a good comparison to see whose songs are better.
He knew that Han Sung-ho specially wrote a lyrical song for Lee Hyori.
So he also plans to make a song in the same style to compete with Han Chenghao. (To be continued......)
