426 What a foolish boy
That night, the male members of the program team all slept together in a classroom-like room, and Song Zhixiao, as the only female MC, got into William Wang's nanny car, anyway, the other girls except her had already finished filming and went home, although the setting here in the program team is that they pretended to drink the chrysanthemum tea provided by the program team after the shooting, and then the next morning, they would become other people......
A group of funny female entertainer seniors.
The next morning, the program team will arrange for the MCs to take a can of milk to the "girls' rest room" to wake up the one they want to be in a group with her, and then give her the milk......
Ahem.
Surprise, um, or to put it another way, frightened.
Watching beautiful girls become aunts is indeed quite frightening.
Of course, William Wang is not particularly interested in this setting, in his eyes, there is no self and no one...... Ahem, it's all skin anyway, even if this group of female high school students is sweet and lovely now, it won't be the same in a few decades? But since other funny female artists don't mind making fun of this, William Wang will definitely not jump out and talk nonsense.
Moreover, the next morning, he was still the best one to play with a confused face.
After all, he is an actor......
With such a funny setting tone, the second day of shooting was obviously much more entertaining than the pink flying on the first day.
The filming was also much easier, after all, compared to the idols who needed the MC to shoot on the first day, these were more professional for most of the female comedy artists present who needed to call their seniors.
But easy doesn't mean easy. When idol is replaced by a comedy artist, the difficulty of the work decreases, but the workload increases: the expectation of a comedy artist in the smile of the material is far greater than that of idol!
By Tuesday afternoon, William had finally completed his first shoot back to RunningMan.
"How do you feel, William?"
"Oh, it's okay! It's just two days of shooting in a row, and I'm a little unaccustomed to it......"
"What's there not to get used to! Wasn't this how the birth of the family was born before? ”
Liu Zaishi walked up to William Wang with a smile and patted him on the shoulder.
"Is it because the show will be filmed like this for two days at a time in the future?" William Wang smiled and shook his head.
Where is this the same as the birth of a family? It's better than the birth of a family!
"Probably not, it's just a special this time, right?" Liu Zaishi thought about it and shook his head, "But the next shooting is to go to Thailand next week, and the itinerary for three days and two nights ......"
"To Thailand?" William Wang was stunned for a moment, and smiled speechlessly, "Is this still going abroad?" ”
"Expand your overseas influence!" Liu Zaishi also smiled, "The PD should notify your agent when the time comes." ”
After getting a somewhat surprising news from Liu Zaishi and greeting several other MCs again, William Wang returned to S City in the nanny car.
And in the nanny car, he got a more detailed content of this information from Min Chang-ho.
It turned out that because of the recent period of time, Gary was busy making album songs, and Song Jihyo was filming, so the program team had to adjust and adapt to the schedules on both sides at the same time, which was not easy, after all, Liu Zaishi was the MC who had programs on three TV stations at the same time, and it would be difficult for him to adjust the itinerary too often.
Therefore, the program team plans to shoot two episodes of content a week before the filming of Song Jihyo's TV series, so that if her itinerary is really staggered in the next period of time, even if the filming is stopped for a week or two, it will not be in the way.
"It is said that I also want to try to shoot two episodes of the program at a time to test whether the audience's ratings are sticky......"
However, Min Changho's words, Wang William did not believe it.
Test for stickiness?
The birth of the family was a group of two phases before, is there any audience stickiness, don't you have that number in your heart?
It's just an excuse.
From William Wang's point of view, he can guess the root cause of the program team's actions.
Even if Song Jihyo wants to film, it is not a big deal for the crew in the peninsula to come out one day a week, and he did not delay his RunningMan recording when he filmed "The Melting Pot" in the peninsula before!
It's just communication.
may really be what the program team has to guard against, but it is actually William Wang here.
God knows when this person flying all over the world will go to the United States to shoot for a while! Even if you don't talk about filming, William Wang's thunderous annual meeting in November will not be recorded for at least a week to two weeks.
In that case, the show can't let William Wang always not appear in the show, right?
If you toss so much, it is estimated that the audience should make a fuss to let William Wang get off the car.
But he really got off the bus, is there any guarantee for the ratings of this show!
Therefore, we can only take precautions.
Make up the stock, so that when there is an accident, it is good to be in emergency.
It's just that these words, the PD of the program team may be really inconvenient to say them, so they came up with this excuse now.
It's also good, anyway, William Wang doesn't mind.
Thinking about it, the car drove back to S City.
However, it is not the family of William Wang of Yagull Pavilion, but Xuanling's company.
William Wang still has something to participate in today.
Although his own interest is not great, but ......
"Congratulations!"
"Rejoice, rejoice!"
Facing Kim Hyung-seok's smiling face, William Wang was really embarrassed not to put on the same smiling face.
This afternoon, the company will hold a celebration party, and the owner of the celebration party is William Wang.
On the exterior wall of the illiam entertainment company, a huge banner hangs there, a little earthy and eye-catching.
Congratulations to William Wang, whose debut solo album has sold more than 1.5 million copies worldwide.
Yes, this is the main reason why he came to the company today.
He was going to participate in the filming of a video to celebrate the sale of an album that would be posted on a video site and William Wang's account, which has become an official SNS.
The video is naturally about champagne, cake cutting, celebration and thanking those who bought his album.
When William Wang went to the United States to film two months ago, the team led by Kim Hyung-seok, who stayed on the peninsula, made fine corrections to the songs he had hastily recorded and released them as a mini-album.
And this album has achieved good results that he didn't even think about when William Wang himself didn't care about it at all.
Starting from the single "Back_at_one", which was released ahead of schedule because he thought William Wang was not going to make an album, several songs on this album have achieved quite good results on the bulletin board, and even entered the top 10 in one week.
And when the album was released, every song on the entire album attracted a lot of attention, and even took turns to enter the front row of the bulletin board.
Although it is not as good as Adele, which was born at the beginning of this year, it has also formed a big trend in the European and American pop music circles for a while.
Just like Li Zhina said when Dreamcatcher released the album before, in this era of rampant online music, album sales are a difficult thing, except for island countries and Americans may still have the habit of buying albums, even in Europe, the sales of physical albums are no longer ideal.
In this era, it is really not easy for the album to sell 1.5 million copies, especially when it comes to William Wang, who is not a singer.
Therefore, some necessary thanks still have to be expressed, and today's video shooting is for this reason.
Of course, in addition to thanking these albums that have already been sold in Europe and the United States, illiam Entertainment also has some other plans.
Considering the music form and language, this album did not shoot a MV, did not shoot a photo, and did not conform to the current Peninsula album production process, and I never thought of releasing it on Peninsula from the beginning.
It's just that the download is provided electronically on the Internet through the way of sound sources, and it is just like illiam entertainment expected, because William Wang's songs are either blues or rock, or they are European and American pop, the only one that is closer to the Kpop music form is the Party_shaker that William Wang "transformed" from the club's electronic music in the bar, which can be compared to the hip-hop electronic music of Bingbang, which is popular on the peninsula. This song, which is closer to the Latin style, is not too much on the peninsula, so when the album was first released in April, the songs of his album were not even seen on the domestic music download charts of the peninsula.
It's just that these songs are so popular abroad, and when they return to the peninsula, it's unlikely that no one listens to them, so as these songs have occupied a high ranking on the billboard for a long time, people have gradually begun to listen to them on the peninsula, and the number of downloads of these songs has actually begun to rise against the market.
Especially that Party_shaker, because it became a hit song for DJs in the bar, it once rushed to the top ten of the music source chart.
That's all it, if you don't release this chapter album in the peninsula and island countries, it seems that you can't say it.
So, after filming this video today, William Wang has another thing to do......
"I really don't have any songs that I can come up with, you can kill me." William Wang was speechless and looked at Kim Hyung-seok, who had just finished filming the video, and spread his hands.
"But now that you're going to release a remastered version of the album, you have to add a new song to it! Otherwise, who would buy it! Kim Hyung-seok was also helpless.
"Then don't send it!"
“…… Boss, this is the president's decision, can you tell him? ”
"What about Li Zhi?" Wang William looked at Min Changho, who was beside him with an embarrassed face, and the humanoid nine-tailed fox in front of the pseudonym Tamamo, who had finished her work and was packing up her cosmetics.
"I'm going to the island country to talk about Dreamcatcher's next concert in the island country." Tamamo replied as he cleaned up his things.
“…… Irene's concert after the filming is over! William Wang glanced at the nine-tailed fox a little speechlessly.
"Then how do I know! I met the president when I came to the company yesterday, and he told me. Yuzao smiled at William Wang.
After packing her things, she planned to leave.
"I'm going to Thailand next Monday and I'm at the international airport before 9 a.m." Min Changho grabbed Yuzao, who was about to leave directly, and said.
"Huh? Going to Thailand? What's the itinerary? ”
"RunningMan's shooting!"
"Shooting? When did the boss go back? ”
"I just finished filming today...... You don't know? ”
"Nobody told me! Otherwise, why wouldn't I have gone today! ”
“…… My bad, okay. Min Changho patted his head, seriously, did he really forget that William Wang still has a stylist here, and this stylist hasn't been to work for half a year, right?" Next week, make your travel arrangements. ”
"Oh, okay...... When are you going to pick him up from your boss? Shall I rub the car over there? ”
"Six in the morning."
"Well, I'll be downstairs at my boss's house before six o'clock."
"Okay, then...... Let's go. ”
"Boss, see you next Monday!"
“…… See you next Monday. William Wang waved his hand in front of Yuzao.
I tried to resist the urge to complain.
You didn't know I went to shoot the show yesterday? I specifically told you okay! You said that Min Chang-ho didn't inform you that it was inconvenient for you to go......
But in fact, it's okay, you can't seem to be too familiar with her, otherwise according to the habit of Min Changho, who likes to open his brain, God knows if he will feel that he has any shameful relationship with the nine-tailed fox......
"Boss, let's get down to business! Your remastered album! Kim Hyung-seok dragged the conversation back from William Wang and his assistant.
"No more!" William Wang waved his hand.
"Why don't you make money if you have money......?"
"I can't get a song, how do you want me to earn it?" William Wang spread his hands.
"Didn't you come up with two songs in two days when you were on this album?"
"Those two songs have squeezed out my inspiration, and I've been busy with filming and that recently, so I don't have any idea of writing songs......"
“…… Then I'll take a song and you change it? ”
"Then you say, how much would it be worth if I made a song like this?" William Wang was a little speechless and spread his hands.
"We only release this reset album in China." Someone from the business department of the company next to him jumped out to answer the question, "The main faces are East Asia and Southeast Asia, these two places we didn't consider when the album was released before, there is still a lot of room for sales, according to our data analysis, the sales volume should be about 200,000 to 500,000." ”
"Twenty to fifty...... How can such a large interval be calculated? William Wang was a little speechless.
"Twenty is the guarantee, and fifty is the sales if the quality of the new song is not bad." The man from the commerce department continued, "Based on the twenty dollars for a reset album, the sales of 200,000 are four million ......."
"It's only four million." William Wang smiled, "Li Zhi's money invested in the game company is not only this. ”
William Wang said so, and this face-to-face conversation couldn't be talked about.
"Then tell the president, if you don't do it, you won't do it." Kim Hyung-seok didn't bother to persuade Wang William.
"I called him...... Never mind. ”
William Wang took out the mobile phone and put it back.
“…… What do you mean? Kim Hyung-seok looked confused.
"Do you have any ideas, give it to me, I'll go get a song as soon as possible!" William Wang sighed softly and shook his head.
"Oh! That's easy to say. "Kim Hyung-seok really doesn't understand why William Wang suddenly made a 180-degree turn, but it doesn't matter," I'll send you two electronic songs. ”
"Electronic music...... Okay. ”
"You're going to Thailand next week?" Although Kim Hyung-seok asked Wang William, he looked at Min Chang-ho.
"Yes, three days and two nights." Min Changho nodded.
"Then you get the song out for me this week, I'll make the preparations by next Wednesday, and when you come back, you will record it, and then you will go to shoot the music video and album photoshoot, no problem, right?" Kim Hyung-seok took out a notebook and wrote on it, "This is next week...... It's July next week, right? ”
He looked at Min Changho again.
"Well, it's July." Min Changho nodded.
"The album can be officially released before the end of July." The people in the business department responded with a sigh of relief. "Do you want to play a song?"
“…… Our boss, do you think you're going to play songs? Kim Hyung-seok glanced at the people in the business department.
Everyone laughed.
"Then I'll go home first." William Wang interrupted here, "Just send me your song directly to my mailbox." ”
"Hmm." Kim Hyung-seok nodded, "But I think since you're here, it's better to go to the dance practice room and see the Dreamcatcher children preparing for the concert." ”
"Huh? Why? ”
"All of their albums together didn't sell 1.5 million...... Well, it's the 200,000 that you can't look at, and they've all held celebrations. Kim Hyung-seok said seriously.
“…… Oh. William Wang smiled a little helplessly.
I seem to have unconsciously hurt people again......
With a little self-reproach and apprehension, William Wang left the underground studio where the thank you video was filmed, and went upstairs to the dance practice room opposite his office.
Irene was still filming her "Hunger Games" in the United States and didn't come back, and the other six kids were there, including Suzy Bae and Kei, who just finished recording RunningMan yesterday.
"Senior! You're here! ”
Seeing William Wang coming in, Park Hyo-min was the first to stop the dance he was dancing and greeted William Wang.
Behaved.
"Senpai!"
Although the music was still playing, several girls stopped and stood up in order.
It seems that when Irene is away, Park Hyo-min, the eldest sister, can still control these younger sisters.
"Preparing for a concert?" William Wang said with a smile effortlessly.
"Well, I'm going to have a concert tour in the island country starting next month." The answer to William Wang was still Park Hyo-min, "There are eight games in total." ”
"Oh, that's hard work." William Wang smiled and nodded, "This wave of concerts can make a lot of money, right?" ”
“…… Presumably. ”
When William Wang talked about money, several girls laughed embarrassedly.
"I heard that a few of you over 20 have moved out of the dorm?" Wang William looked at Park Hyo-min and Kim Hyun-ah.
"Well, Hyuna and I have both moved out." Park Hyo-min nodded, "IU and they really want to move out, but the company is afraid of their safety and that they will not feel at ease living in the dormitory, so they stay in the dormitory to accompany them, but she is filming abroad all year round......"
"Actually, it's good that we live in the dormitory." IU hurriedly answered and said.
"Yes! Also save money. Pei Xiuzhi also nodded, "But the boss...... You didn't come to us to talk about this, did you? ”
"I didn't see you so sharp when I recorded the show yesterday." William Wang glanced at Pei Xiuzhi and coughed a little embarrassed, "I heard Kim Hyung-seok say, you seem to be a little unhappy because of my album?" ”
"Definitely!" Jisoo nodded earnestly. "What, are you here to apologize, senior?"
Embarrassed.
I said, you stinky girl! Can you die if you don't speak so straight?
William Wang coughed again.
"Jisoo......" Park Hyo-min gave Jisoo a deep look.
"Ah, it's okay, Sister Xiaomin, the seniors are here to comfort us, if we don't take the opportunity to get angry with him or something, we won't have a chance in the future." Jisoo shook his head, looking nonchalant.
“…… Well, I'm here to apologize. William Wang glanced at Jisoo and smiled, "I didn't expect that I would record an album so casually, and it would sell 1.5 million ......."
"......" Jisoo opened his mouth.
"Do you think you've ever said anything about your predecessors?" Kim Hyun-ah dragged Jisoo aside.
"Okay, in fact, you don't have anything to envy, after all, my albums are mainly sold in Europe and the United States, and the album sales base on that side is different." William Wang smiled and said something that wasn't really comforting, "One and a half million sounds like a lot? But in the first half of this year, there were quite a few albums that sold better than my album. ”、
"We know, senior, you don't have to worry about ......," Kim Hyun-ah answered.
"Hmm. I'm still wondering if you're upset......"
"Grant us a request! Otherwise, we would be embarrassed to go out and say that we are the representative singers of the illiam entertainment company. Jisoo doesn't seem to be giving up.
Actually, it's good that there is such a gag, and the atmosphere is not too dull.
"What requirements?"
"Let's concert, senior, are you coming?"
"Do you want me to go to your concert? Is it appropriate? ”
"You're stupid! What should I do if I go to see the seniors at the concert? Shame on you! Bae Xiuzhi was a little speechless and pressed Jisoo down again.
"No......" William Wang sneered.
"Another one!" IU clapped her hands and changed the subject.
"That'...... Senior, can we call you OPPA in the future? Kei suddenly raised his hand.
“…… What a requirement! "Busy was immediately suppressed by a group of sisters.
"No! When I was recording the show yesterday, I saw Shirley of F(x) calling his seniors OPPA, and we also called him seniors, which always felt very angry! Kei said hard against the suppression of his sisters. Sister Suzy, weren't you angry about this yesterday too! ”
Suddenly there was silence.
"That's for broadcasting." Bae Suzhi was a little embarrassed. "Besides, we're in one company......"
"It's not going to be good." Kei shook his head, "Is that okay, Senpai?" ”
“…… If that's all it takes, no problem. William Wang agreed very simply.
"That'...... OPPA。 Kei tried to shout.
“OPPA!” IU also followed up with a smile.
……
